Influence of severe potassium depletion and subsequent repletion with potassium on muscle electrolytes, metabolites and amino acids in man.
1. Two women with severe hypokalaemic alkalosis were investigated by means of muscle biopsy before and at the end of 2 and 3 weeks respectively of intense therapy with potassium chloride. 2. The muscle biopsy material was analysed for water, electrolytes, adenine nucleotides, phosphocreatine, free creatine, pyruvate, lactate, glycogen and free amino acids. The extra- and intra-cellular distribu...
متن کاملThe amino-aciduria in galactosaemia.
Excessive quantities of amino-acids have recently been found in the urine of infants with galactosaemia (Holzel, Komrower and Wilson, 1952; Bickel and Hickmans, 1952). At first sight, the occurrence of amino-aciduria in a condition known to be associated with severe liver damage would suggest that the amino-aciduria is of the 'overflow' variety, namely, that it occurs as the result of a rise of...
متن کاملAmino-aciduria and hypermetabolism in progeria.
In 1886 Hutchinson described the first case of alopecia totalis congenita associated with atrophy of the skin, and in 1904 Gilford reported a similar case and described it as premature senility (senilitas praecox) or progeria. From that time to the present about 20 cases have been described in the world literature (Curtin and Kotzen, 1929; Talbot, Butler, Pratt, MacLachlan and Tannheimer, 1945;...
متن کاملIdiopathic hypoproteinaemic oedema and amino-aciduria in an infant.
Hypoproteinaemic oedema may result from a deficiency of protein in the diet or interference with its absorption from impaired synthesis of serum proteins in the liver, or from loss of protein, as in albuminuria. In some cases, termed idiopathic hypoproteinaemia, the cause is obscure. A few examples in children are on record. Schick and Greenbaum (1945) described an I -year-old girl who had had ...
متن کاملPotassium depletion improves myocardial potassium uptake in vivo.
Potassium depletion (KD) is a very common clinical entity often associated with adverse cardiac effects. KD is generally considered to reduce muscular Na-K-ATPase density and secondarily reduce K uptake capacity. In KD rats we evaluated myocardial Na-K-ATPase density, ion content, and myocardial K reuptake. KD for 2 wk reduced plasma K to 1.8 +/- 0.1 vs. 3.5 +/- 0.2 mM in controls (P < 0.01, n ...
