[Production of aldosterone by the regenerated adrenal gland after neonatal autograft in the normal, and the sodium deprived rat].
The suppression of the adrenal medulla by bilateral neonatal autograft in Sprague-Dawley male rat involves important changes in plasma aldosterone concentration: it falls of about 50% in animals with control diet; on the contrary, it is doubled in sodium depleted rats. Changes in adrenal aldosterone level are slight and non significant. The mechanism of effect of adrenal medulla on aldosterone production is discussed.
