“…There is a hyperbolic relationship between sodium influx (or at least that component of influx associated with sodium transport) and sodium concentration, indicative of a saturable phenomenon. At a given sodium concentration antidiuretic hormone increases influx, whereas amiloride inhibits influx (Rotunno, Villalonga, Fernandez & Cereijido, 1970;Biber & Curran, 1970;Cereijido & Rotunno, 1971;Biber, 1971;Ferguson & Smith, 1972; Moreno, Reisin, Rodriguez-Boulan, Rotunno & Cereijido, 1973;Biber & Cruz, 1973;Erlij & Smith, 1973;Biber & Sanders, 1973). One of the sources cited above (Biber & Sanders, 1973) is of particular interest since it was shown that the extent of sodium influx at a given sodium concentration can be influenced by the transepithelial potential.…”
