Abstract:
Rats submitted to a chronically implanted cannula into lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) were utilized to study the effect of ionic stimulation of KCl, LiCl and CaCl2, sodium free solutions, on renal water and electrolyte excretion. In a general way decreases in natriuresis and kaliuresis following the injections of solutions into LHA were observed. Furthermore, significant increases in diuresis were noted after the injections of the 0.30 M solutions.
