Sodium ions outflow rate through lymphocyte membranes, serum sodium, potassium, aldosterone, total catecholamines and 6-keto-PGE alpha levels, and plasma renin activity were studied in patients with mild hypertension associated with low and hugh plasma renin activity treated with captopril in a single dose of 12.3 mg and after the treatment with daily doses of 12.5 mg and 25 mg for 3 days. It was found, that captopril in hypertensive patients with high plasma renin activity decreases both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, decelerates heart rate, and decreases serum total catecholamines and plasma renin activity. Sodium ions outflow rate and serum sodium, potassium, aldosterone, and 6-keto-PGE alpha remain unchanged. Captopril in hypertensive patients with low plasma renin activity. The remaining parameters are unchanged. Moreover, it was noted that serum 6-keto-PGE alpha levels are lower in hypertensive patients with low plasma renin activity.

[Effect of normal and high sodium diet on the sodium outflow rate through lymphocyte cell membrane and lymphocyte sodium level in patients with mild primary hypertension].

An effect of normal and high sodium diet on the rate of sodium outflow rate through lymphocyte cell membranes was evaluated in patients with mild primary hypertension with normal value of Na+ outflow rate index. It was found that high sodium value does not increase the value of this index in patients with mild primary hypertension but it does increase Na+ levels in lymphocytes. However, high sodium diet increases the value of this parameter in patients with mild primary hypertension with normal value of Na+ outflow rate through lymphocyte cell membranes and does not effect sodium level in the lymphocytes. According to the authors, high sodium diet in patients with normal renal function does not affect serum sodium levels.

[Effect of selected hypotensive drugs on the rate of sodium outflow through lymphocyte cell membranes and sodium lymphocyte levels in patients with primary hypertension].

Sodium outflow rate through lymphocyte cell membranes was investigated in patients with primary hypertension with disturbed and normal sodium transport through these membranes during the treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, propranolol, clonidine or verapamil. It was found that hydrochlorothiazide increases total outflow rate of sodium ions through lymphocyte cell membranes and decreases its concentration in the lymphocytes but does not affect ouabain-dependent sodium outflow rate. It was also noted that verapamil increases total and ouabain-dependent sodium outflow rate through lymphocyte cellular membranes and decreases its lymphocyte levels.

[Sodium outflow rate through lymphocyte cellular membranes in women with arterial hypertension caused by pregnancy and in health pregnant women].

Ouabain- and furosemide-dependent rate of sodium outflow through lymphocytes cellular membranes was measured in both healthy pregnant women and those with arterial blood hypertension caused by pregnancy. It was shown, that ouabain-dependent sodium outflow rate is decreased in healthy women in the I, II, and III trimester of pregnancy, while in women with arterial hypertension in the III trimester. No difference in sodium outflow rate both total and furosemide-dependent in healthy pregnant women during the I, II and III trimester, and in pregnant women with arterial hypertension due to pregnancy in the III trimester was noted. No difference in sodium outflow rate was noted in pregnant women with the arterial hypertension due to pregnancy with familial history of the hypertension.
