ACTH cortisone, and DCA were administered successively for periods of 5-31 days to 4 dogs, at dosage levels (in mg./kg./ day) of 2.1 and 6.3 of ACTH, 2.1 and 4.2 of cortisone and 1.0 of DCA, and at 2 levels of Na intake (0.5 and 3.3 meq./kg./day). Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal plasma flow increased with all 3 hormones (except with ACTH in 1 dog and DCA in another), most markedly with cortisone, least with DCA. Water exchange was increased by all 3 prepns. The diabetes insipidus-like state produced by DCA was dependent upon a high Na intake, whereas increased water turnover of lesser magnitude occurred with ACTH and cortisone on both low and high Na diets. A negative K balance resulted with ACTH, cortisone, and DCA but marked K depletion and alkalosis accompanied DCA and a high salt intake only. Fecal K excretion was increased greatly by DCA and slightly by ACTH (3 of 4 dogs) but cortisone was without effect. The first 1 or 2 days of ACTH and cortisone admn. were accompanied by salt loss in 3 of the 4 dogs; since GFR was initially increased in these 3 but not in the 4th animal, a causal relationship between elevated GFR and the negative balance is suggested. Salt retention resulted during the corresponding period on DCA. Thereafter, balance was maintained during admn. of all 3 hormones in spite of a high GFR. Although it is uncertain whether ACTH stimulated secretion of hormones promoting Na and Cl reabsorption by the renal tubules, the effect of ACTH and cortisone on salt excretion in the dog differs from that reported for man.
