Urea, compared with deuterium oxide (D2O) as a reference, was used as a body marker to estimate body water volume in ten 2-month old nursing foals. Plasma urea clearance was regular over 10 h and the R2 of the disappearance curve was between 0.93 and 0.98. Mean urea space was about 4% lower than D2O space, but the standard deviation of the proportion of water in body weight was higher with urea...
The effect of abomasal infusion of glucose (120 kJ/d per kg body weight (BW)0.75, 758 mmol/d) on urea production, plasma alanine-N flux rate and the conversion of alanine-N to urea was studied in sheep offered a low-N diet at limited energy intake (500 kJ/d per kg BW0.75), based on hay and grass pellets. Glucose provision reduced urinary N (P = 0.040) and urea (P = 0.009) elimination but this w...
We developed a new technique that monitors metabolic competency in female heterozygotes for ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD). The method uses mass spectrometry to measure conversion of (15)NH4Cl to [15N]urea and [5-(15)N]glutamine following an oral load of (15)NH4Cl. We found that heterozygotes converted significantly less NH3 nitrogen to urea, with this difference being particularl...
Urea degradation was measured during 16 experiments in 13 chronic uremic patients being treated with essential amino acids or their analogues. [(14)C]Urea was injected i.v. and the clearance of labeled urea from its volume of distribution was compared with the simultaneous renal clearance of ordinary urea, which averaged 2.0 liters/day. The difference, extrarenal clearance of urea, averaged 3.1...
The effect of hyperosmotic solution of NaCl, urea and mannitol on Bufo viridis red blood cells were studied. The percentage of water content in B. viridis red blood cells decreased significantly in NaCl and mannitol hypertonic solutions compared to urea hypertonic solution. The urea concentration found in red blood cells in a urea hypertonic solution was significantly higher than in red blood c...
The white-edge freshwater whip ray Himantura signifer can survive in freshwater (0.7 per thousand ) indefinitely or in brackish water (20 per thousand ) for at least two weeks in the laboratory. In freshwater, the blood plasma was maintained hyperosmotic to that of the external medium. There was approximately 44 mmol l(-1) of urea in the plasma, with the rest of the osmolality made up mainly by...
BACKGROUND Brain damage (myelinolysis) develops in hyponatraemia after a large increase in serum sodium regardless of the currently available methods of correction. However, a preliminary study suggests that treatment of hyponatraemia with urea limits the risks of brain lesions in rats. Benefits of sustained high blood levels of urea and mechanisms of protection remain hypothetical. METHODS I...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Transport of urea across the blood-brain barrier is increased during postischemic cerebral reperfusion in the piglet. Ischemia/reperfusion also has been observed to increase apparent superoxide anion generation on the surface of the brain. The present study was designed to address the hypothesis that the increased transfer of urea into the brain after ischemia/reperfusion...
We developed a new technique that monitors metabolic competency in female heterozygotes for ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD). The method uses mass spectrometry to measure conversion of 15 NH 4 Cl to [ 15 N]urea and [515 N]glutamine following an oral load of 15 NH 4 Cl. We found that heterozygotes converted significantly less NH 3 nitrogen to urea, with this difference being particul...
Although GPC has long been recognized as a degradation product of phosphatidylcholine, only recently is there wide appreciation of its role as a compatible and counteracting osmolyte that protects cells from osmotic stress. GPC is osmotically regulated in renal cells. Its level varies directly with extracellular osmolality. Cells in the kidney medulla in vivo and in renal epithelial cell cultur...
