Ouabain has recently been identified as an endogenous Na(+)-K+ pump inhibitor. We
administered ouabain chronically to normotensive rats with varying degrees of reduced renal …

Reports from several laboratories suggest the presence of an ouabainlike compound in
plasma and various animal tissues, particularly during acute volume expansion and in low-renin …

Endogenous Na+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitors may have a role in the mechanism of low-renin
hypertension. Two such compounds have been characterized: ouabain from human plasma …

We have previously reported that chronic hypertension develops consistently in Wistar rats
with a 25% reduction in renal mass (RRM) following the induction of insulin dependent …

We have reported that streptozotocin-induced insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in 25%
reduced renal mass rats is associated with low-renin, volume-expanded hypertension and …

on hemodynamics, fluid volumes and plasma Na-K pump inhibitor in rats. Aviat Space …

Thiorphan, a neutral endoprotease (NEP) enzyme inhibitor, has been shown to enhance the
effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in vivo. In this study, we examined the effects of an …

We obstructed renal lymph drainage from a single kidney in diabetic rats who had received
65 mg/kg streptozotocin 6 months prior to the study. Lymphatic obstruction led to a …

The aspect of Mg ++ metabolism was studied in 83 patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).
The result indicated that CHF per se and treatment with digoxin were not the causes of …

Aluminum nitride (AlN) particles of 20 nm diameter were dispersed into ethanol by a two-step
process, first magnetic striation and then ultrasonic agitation. Castor oil was added as a …
