renal/urinary system
• increase in fractional excretion of potassium on both a normal chow and low potassium diet
|
• elevated urine sodium excretion after 2 - 4 days on a low sodium diet compared to diet matched wild-type controls
|
• ambient osmolarity of spot urine is significantly reduced
|
• blunted diuretic response to furosemide
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• on both a normal chow and low potassium diet
|
• increase in fractional excretion of potassium on both a normal chow and low potassium diet
|
• elevated urine sodium excretion after 2 - 4 days on a low sodium diet compared to diet matched wild-type controls
|
• ambient osmolarity of spot urine is significantly reduced

cardiovascular system
hypotension
(
J:177443
)
• mice on a low sodium diet but not mice on a normal chow diet develop relative systolic hypotension
• however, on a normal chow diet blood pressure is normal
