Abstract excerpt
A chronic increase in the concentration of sodium chloride in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (↑CSF [NaCl]) appears to be critically important for the development of salt-dependent hypertension. In agreement with this concept, increasing CSF [NaCl] chronically by intracerebroventricular (icv) infusion of NaCl-rich artificial CSF (aCSF-HiNaCl) in rats produces hypertension by the same mechanisms (i.e.,...
