Polymorphisms in the WNK1 gene are asociated with blood pressure variation and urinary potassium excretion [PDF]
WNK1 - a serine/threonine kinase involved in electrolyte homeostasis and blood pressure (BP) control - is an excellent candidate gene for essential hypertension (EH). We and others have previously reported association between WNK1 and BP variation. Using

Changes in intracellular ion activities induced by adrenaline in human and rat skeletal muscle [PDF]
To study the stimulating effect of adrenaline (ADR) on active Na+/K+ transport we used double-barrelled ion-sensitive micro-electrodes to measure the activities of extracellular K+ (aKe) and intracellular Na+ (aNai) in isolated preparations of rat soleus
