Renal function in the hibernating, and hypothermic hamster Mesocricetus auratus.

Plasma and urine concentrations of Na+, K+, and urea were examined in hibernating, hypothermic, and normothermic hamsters. Plasma Na+ and K+ appear unaffected by 48 h of hypothermia (T-re 7 degrees C); however, plasma Na+ increased (P smaller than 0.05) from control values of 125.8 plus or minus 10.2 to 173 plus or minus 9.2 meg/liter in hibernators. Plasma K+ of the hibernator increased to 9.6...
