Tissue sodium excess is not hypertonic and reflects extracellular volume expansion
Na+ has been suggested to accumulate in tissues, particularly skin, in a hypertonic manner and to exert local pathogenic effects. Here, we reappraise this phenomenon which is systemic in nature and reflects isotonic changes in the relative extracellular volume in tissues, e.g. subclinical oedema; as...

| Sumario: | Na+ has been suggested to accumulate in tissues, particularly skin, in a hypertonic manner and to exert local pathogenic effects. Here, we reappraise this phenomenon which is systemic in nature and reflects isotonic changes in the relative extracellular volume in tissues, e.g. subclinical oedema; as such, it occurs in human hypertension and aging. |
