Abstract
Summary
Growth hormone increased filtration rate, renal plasma flow, and urea clearance in 4 normal dogs, and sulfate Tm in 3 of these dogs, within 3 days. In 3 of the 4 dogs the fasting blood glucose concentration was elevated. Urea excretion (in short clearance periods) was decreased, but owing to the increased urea clearance, the plasma urea concentration decreased relatively more than urea excretion.
