چکیده

The goal of these studies was to determine whether the hypertension caused by excessive salt loading results from sodium-induced expansion of the extracellular fluid volume or whether the salt increases the pressure in some other way, such as by causing vascular constriction. In one group of sheep, a combination of total nephrectomy and hemodialysis was used to produce and maintain step increases in extracellular fluid volume for 1 wk without a significant change in sodium ion concentration. In a 2nd group, unilateral nephrectomy, dialysis, and DOCA administration were used to cause step increases in sodium ion concentration while the extracellular fluid volume was held as close to normal as possible. The results showed a 41% increase in arterial pressure in the high-volume sheep and only a 4% increase in pressure in the high-sodium sheep. In both instances the total exchangeable sodium increased almost equally--a 21% increase in the high-sodium sheep. The data support the concept that sodium retention causes hypertension almost entirely because of sodium-induced expansion of the extracellular fluid volume.

The 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...

Salt sensitivity of blood pressure in chronic renal failure. Evidence for renal control of body fluid distribution in man.

SUMMARY Twenty-three patients with different degrees of renal insufficiency were studied after equili-bration on two levels of salt intake. Blood pressure was found to increase after increased salt intake. This blood pressure increase, when related to sodium excretion increase (salt sensttirity index), tended to be larger in patients with a greater loss of kidney function. In fact, the salt sen...

Sodium Chloride Effects on Seed Germination, Growth and Ion Concentration in Chamomile (Matricaria Chamomilla)

Matricaria chamomilla is a medicinal plant that is widely cultivated in salt affected soils. This investigation was undertaken to study the effect of NaCl concentration on germination, and the physiological, biochemical and growth characteristics of chamomile. Seed germination and growth were studied at five NaCl concentration levels (0, 40, 80, 120 and 190 mM NaCl concentration). Increasing th...

Relative contributions of dietary Na+ and Cl- to salt-sensitive hypertension.

The effect of dietary NaCl on blood pressure has generally been attributed to the sodium ion. However, recent evidence indicates that the anion accompanying sodium plays an important role in determining the magnitude of the blood pressure increase in response to a high dietary intake of NaCl. The purpose of this review is to describe studies of blood pressure responses in several experimental m...

Growth response and ion distribution of two canola varieties to different potassium to sodium ratios

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. The effect of different ratios of NaCl/KCl was studied in two cultivars (Hyola308 and Kristina) of Rapeseed in 2002. Canola seedlings were grown in Hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of NaCl/KCl. The treatments or KCl:NaCl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (Total Added Salt or TAS=20 mol.m-3), 0:...
