Abstract
Chronic salt-loading is known to protect rats from glycerol-induced hemaglobinuric
renal failure. Experiments with transplantation in salt-drinking and H2O-drinking rats demonstrated that chronic salt-loading of both donor and recipient
are necessary to protect against acute tubular necrosis from transplant ischemia time.
Plasma volume expansion at the last minute will not provide this protection from renal
failure. It appears, however, that a kidney so protected and given glycerol cannot
tolerate the added ischemic insult of a transplant. Chronic increase in salt intake,
insofar as it does not produce dangerous hypertension, may be useful for patients
undergoing elective major renal vascular procedures.
