2 Disorders of Sodium Homeostasis
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. Renal sodium excretion is the primary determinant of sodium homeostasis. 2. Changes in sodium concentration in extracellular fluid (ECF) are associated with disorders of water balance. 3. Hypovolemia refers to losses of salt and water from the ECF, whereas dehydration is defined as primarily water loss from ECF. 4. Hypervolemia results when fluid accumulates in the ECF at a higher rate than the output due to either sodium and water retention or abnormal sodium and water intake. 5. Activation of sympathetic nervous system, renin–angiotensin–aldosterone, and epithelial sodium channel contributes to renal sodium and water retention.

متن کاملPhotosynthesis Properties and Ion homeostasis of Different Pistachio Cultivar Seedlings in Response to Salinity Stress
Understanding mechanisms of salt tolerance, physiological responses to salt stress, and screening genotypes for breeding programs are important scientific issues remained to be investigated in pistachio. Therefore, current study was carried out to investigate response of different pistachio cultivars (G1, G2, Kaleghochi and UCB1) to salinity treatments (0.6 as control, 10, 20 dS m-1 using salin...

795 Glucose and Fat Metabolism in Narcolepsy—Donjacour et al INTRODUCTION Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder that is characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic hallucinations, sleep paralysis, disturbed nocturnal sleep and obesity.1 Both obesity and disturbed nocturnal sleep are important risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).2 Narcolepsy is c...
متن کاملBody fluid composition.
UNLABELLED Body fluid composition is maintained in a normal physiologic range by regulatory mechanisms that control sodium and water metabolism. A detailed knowledge of the homeostatic mechanisms will help in understanding the pathogenesis and management of disorders of sodium and water balance. OBJECTIVES After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1. Understand the distributio...
متن کاملThe responses of L-gulonolactone oxidase and HKT2;1 genes in Aeluropus littoralis’ shoots under high concentration of sodium chloride
Salinity is one of the most important abiotic stresses that limit crop growth and production. Salt stress influences plants in two ways: by affecting ion toxicity and increasing osmotic stress. Ion homeostasis, the excretion of Na+ and using antioxidant systems are the major strategies of salt tolerance in plants. Na+ and K+ transporters with enzymes that are involved in detoxification of react...
