摘要 在海豚和海狮中，发现血浆肾素活性 (PRA) 与血浆中醛固酮浓度之间存在显着相关性。此外，两只海豚的尿钠排泄量和 PRA 之间存在良好的相关性。这些数据支持这样的假设：在海洋哺乳动物中，肾素-血管紧张素-醛固酮轴在盐平衡的调节中发挥作用。然而，肾脏感知的用于调节肾素分泌的信号尚不清楚。
Summary In both dolphins and sea lions there was found a significant correlation between plasma renin activity (PRA) and the concentration of aldosterone in plasma. Furthermore, an excellent correlation was obtained between the urinary sodium excretion and PRA in two dolphins. These data support the hypothesis that in marine mammals the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis plays a role in the regulation of salt balance. However, the signal perceived by the kidney which serves to regulate renin secretion is unknown.
