The present invention relates to the use of Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and/or SERPINA3 as biomarkers of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor (MR) activation in a patient. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for predicting the responsiveness of a patient to a treatment with a MR antagonist or an aldosterone synthase inhibitor, said method comprising determining in a biological sample obtained from said patient the expression level of the NGAL gene and/or of the SERPINA3 gene. |
