Sodium-selective salt sensitivity: its occurrence in blacks.
We tested the hypothesis that the Na(+) component of dietary NaCl can have a pressor effect apart from its capacity to complement the extracellular osmotic activity of Cl(-) and, thus, expand plasma volume. We studied 35 mostly normotensive blacks who ingested a low-NaCl diet, 30 mmol/d, for 3 weeks, in the first and third of which Na(+) was loaded orally with either NaHCO(3) or NaCl, in random...
متن کاملSalt Sensitivity Failure to Downregulate the Epithelial Sodium Channel Causes Salt Sensitivity in Hsd11b2 Heterozygote Mice
In vivo, the enzyme 11 -hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 influences ligand access to the mineralocorticoid receptor. Ablation of the encoding gene, HSD11B2, causes the hypertensive syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess. Studies in humans and experimental animals have linked reduced 11 -hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 activity and salt sensitivity of blood pressure. In the present...
متن کاملEndothelial sodium channels trigger endothelial salt sensitivity with aging.
The epithelial sodium channel is also expressed in vascular endothelium (endothelial sodium channel [EnNaC]). Depending on ambient sodium concentration, EnNaC is associated with mechanical stiffening of the endothelial cell cortex, leading to endothelial dysfunction. Because the incidence of both salt sensitivity and endothelial dysfunction increases with age, we investigated the abundance of E...
متن کاملMembrane sodium transport and salt sensitivity of blood pressure.
Responses of blood pressure to alterations in the intake of sodium chloride vary widely between individuals. This variable responsiveness complicates investigations of mechanisms responsible for salt sensitivity and limits the appeal of salt restriction as a nonpharmacological antihypertensive therapy. There is therefore considerable interest in the development of markers of salt sensitivity, a...
متن کاملVascular glycocalyx sodium store – determinant of salt sensitivity?
Smart mechanisms allow frictionless slipping of rather rigid erythrocytes (red blood cells, RBC) through narrow blood vessels. Nature solved this problem in an elegant way coating the moving object (RBC) and the tunnel wall (endothelium) by negative charges (glycocalyx). As long as these surfaces are intact, repulsive forces create a 'security zone' that keeps the respective surfaces separated ...
