Aldosterone is the answer

Haley Waller · Answer 2

The answer is Aldosterone. It plays a central role in the homeostatic regulation of blood pressure, plasma sodium (Na+), and potassium (K+) levels. It does so mainly by acting on the mineralocorticoid receptors in the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the nephron hence relating the rate at which the ions are reabsorbed.
