title: [Characteristics of the sodium storage capability of the liver].
abstract: It has been shown in acute experiments on cats and dogs that the liver is an effective barrier preventing the increase of sodium concentration in systemic circulation. As demonstrated by calculations, the reduction of sodium concentration shifts was not the consequence of portal vein blood dilution with the blood delivered by the hepatic artery. The total amount of sodium accumulated by the liver depended on basal liver sodium content.
