title: [The influence of space flights on water-electrolytes turnover and its regulation].
abstract: A study of water-electrolyte exchange, the condition of water milieu of the organism, and the volume- and electrolyte homeostasis regulation in space flights, and also in postflight period has shown the important role of the water-salt homeostasis in adaptation of the human and animal organism to weightlessness. Obviously, downturn of food consumption, renal excretion and the intestine output seem to be caused by suppression of activity of mechanisms of ion deposition. The most intensive changes of the liquid milieu volumes occur in the first days of weightlessness or in its ground simulation. And, with prolonged duration, the changes of extracellular liquid volume and the volume of plasma do not extend. After termination of long space flights, activation of renin-aldosterone systems occurs as well as a decrease in efficiency of antidiuretic hormone, misbalance of pressor/unpressor prostanoids. In the period of re-adaptation after space flights, development of desensitization of kidneys to endogenous ADH occurs. This is the basis for researches directed to improvement of the existing scheme of correction of the hydrogenous status of the astronaut organism in the closing stage of flight.
