Rapid signalling responses stimulated by steroid hormones have been detected in various tissues including the nephron. The significance of these responses in modulating the physiological effects elicited by mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids and the reproductive hormones in the kidney is now becoming more evident. This review outlines how rapid signalling responses stimulated by these hormones are coupled to the regulation of membrane transport targets that impact upon the reabsorptive and excretory functions of the kidney.
