💡 Patients with Cushing’s syndrome lose potassium primarily due to excess cortisol acting on mineralocorticoid receptors in the distal nephron. This allows cortisol to bind mineralocorticoid receptors like aldosterone, promoting sodium reabsorption and potassium secretion in the cortical collecting duct
