title: [Intracellular potassium in normal and pathological pregnancy. I. Regulation of transport and concentration].
abstract: Potassium is the most represented intracellular cation. Its concentration is regulated by active and passive mechanisms: cellular capacity, diffusion, channels and active transport. The relationships among Potassium and other cell cations may be involved in the pregnancy adaptation, and in the pathogenesis of some diseases, among which hypertension and diabetes.
