Bretylium tosylate is a quaternary ammonium compound used for the treatment of ventricular fibrilation in humans. It is advantageous to other cationic compound in the study of biliary excretion in that negligible amount is bound to plasma protein and metabolite is not likely is to be formed. Some researchers reported that the formation of ion-pair complex caused to increase the lipothilicity of cationic compound. The partition of bretylium between water and organic phase was increased with the addition of sodium taurodeoxycholate. Also sensitive gas chromatographical assay procedure using flame ionization detector was studied. This procedure can detect as low as 0.1 mg/ml using 0.1 ml biological sample, but contamination by previous injection is the major problem of this method.

The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship of the dietary nutrients to blood pressure among preschool children in Seoul and to concurrently study the effect of seasonal variance on the aforementioned relationship. The subjects of the study consisted of 203 preschool children aged four to six years. Anthropometric measurements of height, weight, pulse rate and blood pressure, urinary excretion of five cations(Na, K, Ca, P, Mg), creatinine and urea nitrogen and dietary questionaires concerning sodium, potassium calcium and phosphorus were taken during the two periods of summer(Aug. 1986)and winter(Feb, 1987). The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1) The daily urinary excretion of five cations, creatinine and urea nitrogen is summer and winter was as follows; The sodium content was 57.8 mEq in the summer and 59.4 mEq in the winter ; potassium 20.4 mEq and 23.0 mEq, respectively ; calcium, 5.5 mEq and 3.6 mEq, respectively ; and phosphorus, 27.4 mEq and 19.9 mEq, respectively. Only calcium and phosphours excretions in the urine showed significant differences per season(p<0.05). 2) The average dietary intake per day of sodium was 2349mg in the summer and 2155mg in the winter ; potassium consumption was 1425mg in the summer and 1448mg in the winter ; intake of calcium was 472mg in the summer and 500mg in the winter ; and phosphours consumption was 642mg in the summer and 634mg in hte winter. The sodium-to-potassium consumption ratio 1.6 and 1.5, respectively, in the summer and in the winter and the calcium-to-phosphorus ration was 0.7 in the summer and 0.8 in the winter. The dietary calcium intake showed significant differences between the seasons. 3) The principal source of sodium consumption among preschool children was from seasoning-including talbe salt, soy sauce and instant sauce-which accounted for higher then 45% of the sodium intake in both seasons. The main source of potassium was frutis and vegetables which accounted for 29.6% of the potassium intake in the summer and 25.7% in the winter. Milk and milk products were the primary dource of calcium(higher then 40% in both seasons) 4) In the summer, urinary phosphours levels were weakly reated to systolic blood pressures. (0.05

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: To date, sodium intake has been evaluated based on spot urine instead of 24-hour (hr) urine collection. Nevertheless, the optimal method for assessing daily sodium intake remains unclear. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Fifteen male (age 32.7 ± 6.5 years) participants were offered 3 meals with a total of 9-10 g salt over 24 hours, and 24-hr urine was collected from the second-void urine of the first day to the first-void urine of the second day. Twenty-four-hr urinary sodium (24UNa) was estimated using Tanaka's equation and the Korean formula, and spot urine Na, potassium (K), chloride (Cl), urea nitrogen (UN), creatinine (Cr), specific gravity (SG) and osmolality (Osm) were measured. The ratios of urinary Na to other parameters were calculated, and correlations with total measured 24UNa were identified. RESULTS: Average 24-hr urine volume was 1,403 ± 475 mL, and measured 24UNa was 143.9 ± 42.1 mEq (range, 87.1-239.4 mEq). Measured 24UNa was significantly correlated with urinary Na/UN (r = 0.560, P < 0.01), urinary Na/Osm (r = 0.510, P < 0.01), urinary Na/Cr (r = 0.392, P < 0.01), urinary Na/K (r = 0.290, P < 0.01), 24UNa estimated using Tanaka's equation (r = 0.452, P < 0.01) and the Korean formula (r = 0.414, P < 0.01), age (r = 0.548, P < 0.01), weight (r = 0.497, P < 0.01), and height (r = 0.393, P < 0.01) in all spot urine samples. Estimated 24UNa based on the second-void spot urine of the first day tended to be more closely correlated with measured 24UNa than were estimates from the other spot urine samples. The significant parameters correlated with the second-void urine of the first day were urinary Na/K (r = 0.647, P < 0.01), urinary Na/Cr (r = 0.558, P < 0.05), and estimated 24UNa using Tanaka's equation (r = 0.616, P < 0.05) and the Korean formula (r = 0.588, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Second-void urine is more reliable than first-void urine for estimating 24UNa. Urinary Na/K in the second-void urine on the first day is significantly correlated with 24UNa. Further studies are needed to establish the most reliable index and the optimal time of urine sampling for predicting 24UNa.

Rice bran commonly available in Bangladesh is a mixture of rice hulls (60%), bran (35%) and polishing (5%), referred here as rice mill feed (RMF). Dose response effect of RMF supplementation to a straw diet including a zero level was measured on the intake, digestibility, nitrogen balance, microbial N yield and growth rate of growing native (Bos indicus) bulls. Twelve bulls of 33 months old and $272{\pm}31.5kg$ weight were randomly allocated to diets having 0 (T1), 1 (T2) and 2 (T3) kg RMF in addition to 200 g wheat bran, 200 g molasses, 60 g salt and 30 g oyestershe\l powder. Concentrate intake was 5.5, 19.2 and 29.5% of the dietary intake for the T1, T2 and T3 treatment respectively. RMF supplementation had no significant effect on the straw DM intake. However, with the increasing levels of RMF supplementation, total DM & digestible OM intake and the whole gut digestibilities of DM, OM, N & ADF increased but in deminishig return. Total microbial N yield estimated from the urinary purine excretion were 15.35, 26.56 and 38.44 g/d for the treatment T1, T2 and T3 respectively. Both the N intake and the N balance increased linearly in response to increasing level of RMF. Supplementation of RMF linearly increased the energy intake and dietary energy concentration. Growth rate in the T1, T2 and T3 treatments were 112, 125 and 250 g/d respctively. The basal N excretion and the maintenance energy requirement of the experimental animals were estimated to be 615 mg/kg $W^{0.75}/d$ and 447 kJ/kg $W^{0.75}/d$ respectively. The estimated efficiency on N utilization was 0.83 mg/mg of N intake ($r^2=0.997$) while the efficiency of metabolizable energy utilization for growth was 0.15. Since animal refused higher levels of RMF, inclusion up to 2 kg level (about 25% of the total DM intake) appears to have no depressing effect on the performances of animal. However, RMF itself fail to meet the critical nutrient need of the rumen microbes. Therefore response of supplementing RMF after correcting the critical nutrient deficiency need to be studied.

본 연구는 톳유래의 무기성분강화염이 혈압과 무기질 대사에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 수행하였다. 실험처리는 고 저 염식군(Hizikia mineral salt)과 대조군(정제염)의 세가지 처리군으로 하였고, 실험동물인 본태성 고혈압쥐(SHR/NCrj)와 정상쥐(WKY/NCrj)에 음용수의 형태로 식염을 급여하였다. SHR에서는 시험 6주째 수축기혈압(SBP)이 C군보다 고 저염식군(A, B)이 각각 17,24 mmHg 낮았고, 기준혈압(RBP)대비 시험 6주째 혈압의 상승율은 A, B, C군에서 각각 12, 4, 21%로 B군이 가장 낮았다. WKY의 경우 시험 6주째 SBP는 A군과 C군에서 각각 165, 164 mmHg인 반면, B군은 148 mmHg로 훨씬 낮았다. RBP 대비 시험 6주째 혈압의 상승율은 A, B, C군에서 각각 17, 7, 19%로 B군이 가장 낮았다. 소변과 분변 중의 미네랄은 SHR/WKY 종에서 무기 성분강화염군이 정제염군보다 $Na^+$ 함량은 유의하게 낮았지만 $K^+$함량은 무기성분강화염군이 정제염군보다 유의하게 또는 대체로 높았다. 소변과 분변 중 미네랄함량은 다소간 차이가 있었지만 대변보다 소변으로 더 많이 배설된 것으로 나타났다. 간장의 경우 SHR은 $K^+$을 제외한 $Na^+$, $Ca^{++}$ 및 $Mg^{++}$ 함량은 무기성분강화 염군보다 대조군이 통계적으로 높았다(p<0.05). WKY에서 $Na^+$ 함량은 고염식군(A)이 가장 높았고, 신장에서 SHR의 $Na^+$ 함량은 정제염군이 무기성분강화염군보다 높았지만 WKY에서는 오히려 A군과 B군이 대조군보다 높았고, $K^+$ 함량은 저염식군(B)이 가장 높았다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과에서 톳유래의 저염식은 $Na^+$ 함량은 낮추고 $K^+$ 함량은 높이는 등의 체내 미네랄 대사에 긍정적인 영향을 미치기 때문에 혈압상승 억제작용이 있는 것으로 사료되었다.

This study investigated the influence of anthropometric data and nutrient intake on bone mineral density(BMD) and biochemical markers of bone metabolism The mean age of 21 premenopausal women were 47.0 years and that of 41 postmenopausal women whose menopausal age was 49.46 years were 60.56 years. The waist and WHR of postmenopausal women were significantly higher than those of premenopausal ones. The animal protein intake of premenopausal and postmenopausal women were 38.5 and 21.03 g which comprised 54.35 and $31.84\%$ of total protein intake, respectively. The calcium intake of premenopausal and postmenopausal women were 446.45 and 546.97mg which was 63.78 and $78.14\%$ of Korean RDA, respectively. The ALP(Alkaline phosphatase) of premenopausal women was 65.81 U/L, which was significantly lower than that(90.24 U/L) of postmenopausal women (p<0.01). BMD of lumbar spine of premenopausal women was correlated significantly with body weight(r=0.690, p<0.01), waist(r=0.682, p<0.01), WHR(r=0.672, p<0.01), BMI(r=0.559, p<0.01), and body fat(r=0.457, p<0.01). Urinary Ca/creatinine ratio of the premenopausal women was negatively correlated with plant protein(r=-0.529, p<0.05) and plant calcium(r=-0.579, p<0.05). BMD of lumbar spine of postmenopausal women showed positive correlation with lean body mass(r=0.469, p<0.01) and body weight(r=0.383, p<0.05). Urinary Ca/creatinine ratio for the postmenopausal women was positively correlated with ALP(r=0.404, p<0.01) and urinary Na/creatinine ratio(r=0.389, p<0.05). In conclusion, it is necessary to maintain adequate body weight and to increase calcium intake for the premenopausal women. It is also important to increase muscle mass and reduce salt intake for the postmenopausal women.

Appropriate control of diet and water intake is important for maintaining normal blood pressure, fluid and electrolyte homeostasis in the body. It is relatively understood that the amount of sodium and potassium intake directly affects blood pressure and regulates ion transporters; Na and K channel functions in the kidney. However, little is known about whether diet and water intake regulates Aquaporin (AQP) function. AQPs, a family of aquaporin proteins with different types being expressed in different tissues, are important for water absorption by the cell. Water reabsorption is a passive process driven by osmotic gradient and water permeability is critical for this process. In most of the nephron, however, water reabsorption is unregulated and coupled to solute reabsorption, such as AQP1 mediated water absorption in the proximal tubule. AQP2 is the only water channel founded so far that can be regulated by hormones in the kidney. AQP2 expressed in the apical membrane of the principal cells in the collecting tubule can be regulated by vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) controlling the final volume of urine excretion. When vasopressin binds to its receptor on the collecting duct cells, it stimulates the translocation of AQP2 to the membrane, leading to increased water absorption via this AQP2 water channel. However, some studies also indicated that the AQP2 is also been regulated by vasopressin independent mechanism. This review is focused on the regulation of AQP2 by diet and the amount of water intake on salt and water homeostasis.

Objective: The daily maximum temperature and seawater level continuously increase as global warming continues. We examined the adaptability and production performance of heat-stressed goats with a supply of low-saline drinking water. Methods: Twelve Kacang and Kacang Etawah cross goats were exposed to two climatic conditions (control, 25℃ to 33℃, 83% relative humidity [RH], temperature humidity index [THI]: 76 to 86; and hot environment, 26℃ to 39℃, 81% RH, THI: 77 to 94) and two salt levels in drinking water (0% and 0.4% NaCl). The experimental design was a Latin Square (4×4) with four treatments and four periods (28 days each). Results: Temperature of the rectal, skin, and udder, and respiration rate rose, reached a maximum level on the first day of heat exposures, and then recovered. Plasma sodium rose at 0.4% NaCl level, while the hot environment and salinity treatments increased the drinking water to dry matter (DM) intake ratio. Water excretion was elevated in the hot environment but lowered by the increase in salinity. Total lying time increased, whereas change position frequency decreased in the hot condition. Lying and ruminating and total ruminating time increased and explained the enhanced DM digestibility in the hot conditions. Conclusion: The goats exhibited a high level of plasma sodium as salinity increased, and they demonstrated physiological and behavioral alterations while maintaining their production performances under increasing daily maximum temperatures.

장기적으로 소금 섭취량을 달리 한 정상 및 고혈압쥐에서 atrial natriurectic peptide (ANP) 가 혈압, renin-aldosterone 및 신배설에 미치는 효과를 비교하였다. 생후 6주된 spontaneously hyper-tensive rate (SHR)와 Wistar 숫쥐를 각각 저염, 정상염 및 고염 (2, 10, 25 mmol NaCl/100g diet) 군으로 나누어 실험 식이를 6주동안 먹었다. 실험 당일 아침에 쥐를 ether로 마취시킨 상태에서 대퇴 동맥과 정맥 및 방광에 catheter를 삽입한 다음에 쥐를 restraining cage에 넣어 고정시켰다. 마취가 깨고 혈압이 안정된 후에 정맥관으로 0.9% saline을 0.02ml/min의 속도로 80분간 주입하고 안정시 뇨와 혈액을 채취하였다. 그후 ANP를 380 ng/kg/min의 속도로 20분간 주입하였으며 그동안 10분 간격으로 요를 채취한 다음 채혈하였다. 혈장 aldosterone 농도와 renin 활성도 (PRA)를 방사면역법으로 측정하였다. ANP를 주입하기 전에 SHR 고염군의 평균동맥압은 정사염이나 저염군보다 유의하게 높았으나, Wistar의 혈압은 소금군 사이에서 차이가 없었다. ANP 주입전의 혈장 aldosterone 농도는 소금 섭취량이 많을수록 유의하게 낮았으며, Wistal 군이 SHR 보다 높은 값을 보였다. 혈장 renin 활성도는 소금군 간에 차이가 없었으며, Wistar와 SHR 간에도 차이가 없었다. 요량이나 Na, K 배설률은 소금군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었으나, SHR이 Wistar 보다 높은 경향을 보였다. Hematocrit 값도 소금군 간에 차이가 없었으나, SHR의 값이 Wistar 보다 유의하게 높았다. ANP를 주입하는 동안 혈압이 점진적으로 감소하여 20분후에는 $20{\sim}30\;mmHg$ 정도 감소하였으나, 각 소금군사이에 차이가 없었다. 그러나, ANP에 의한 혈압 강하 정도는 SHR이 Wistar 보다 유의하게 높았다. ANP 주입 후에는 모든 군에서 aldosterone과 혈장 renin 활성도가 유의하게 감소하였는데, aldosterone의 감소 정도는 저염군에서 가장 크게 나타났다. ANP의 이뇨 및 Na 배설 항진효과는 Wistar에서는 소금군 간에 차이가 없었으나, SHR 에서는 고염군의 Na 배설률이 저염군보다 유의하게 높았다. ANP의 혈압강하 효과나 Na 배설 항진효과가 SHR에서 Wistar 보다 유의하게 높게 나타났으나, 이뇨반응, renin 및 hematocrit의 변화에는 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과에서, 장기적으로 소금 섭취량이 다름에 따라 ANP의 효과 중에서 특히 aldosterone 분비나 SHR의 Na 배설에 차이가 나타났는데 그 작용 기전은 확실치 않다.

생후 $40{\pm}5$ 일된 젖떨어진 Albino Rat female male 각각 30마리를 크게 Alanine(AL)과 Aminoethylphosphonic acid(AEP) group으로 나누고 각 group을 다시 각각 2 group으로 나누어 female male Alanine 0.1%, female male Alanine 0.2%와 female male AEP 0.1%, female male AEP 0.2% 합(合) 8 group으로 나누어 14 주동안 실험한 결과의 요약은 다음과 같다. 단백질 효율과 뇨중 질소배설량에 어떤 유의적인 차이가 없음으로 AEP도 다른 일반적인 Amino acid와 같은 정도로 체내에서 이용됨을 알 수 있다. AEP의 첨가로 인한 p의 이용율의 변화 유무를 판정하기 위하여 뇨중 p의 함량을 측정한 결과 모든 group사이에 유의성이 없었음으로 alanine 첨가 group에서나 AEP 첨가 group에서나 같은 정도로 체내에서 이용됨을 알 수있으나 AEP의 첨가로 인한 Dietary Phosphorus함량이 높음으로 인하여 체내 보유량이 많다는 것을 알 수 있으며 이는 blood phosphorus 함량측정을 해본 결과와 일치함을 알 수 있다. 간질소 함량을 측정하여 본 결과 AEP 첨가가 간질소 함량을 높일 수 있으며 0.2%쪽이 더 많은 양을 간에 보유할 수 있다는 것을 알았다. 간지방 함량도 간질소 함량과 같은 방향으로 나타났으며 조직 검사로 fat lumps를 발견할 수 없었으므로 AEP 첨가가 fatty liver의 요인이 될 수 없다는 것을 알 수 있다. Amino acid의 생물학적 가치와 Amino acid의 조성사이에는 현저한 관계가 있어 양적으로 충분한 단백질을 섭취한다 하더라도 섭취한 단백질이 함유하고 있는 Amino acid의 종류 및 각종 Amino acid의 비율에 따라서 소화에 현저한 차이가 있어 생물학적 기능이 다르다는 것이 Oser와 그외 여러 학자들에 의하여 보고되었다. 이 보고에 비추어 보아 0.2% diet에서 Amino acid의 장내 흡수시 imbalanced condition을 초래 한 것으로 본다.
