[Direct and indirect effects of mineral water Naftusia and its components on the sodium-potassium pump of the small-intestinal epithelium in rats].

Experiments on rats have shown that intragastric single introduction of mineral water Naftusia to animals in a dose of 1.5% of the body weight of animals induces sodium accumulation in the small intestine epithelium, that is a result of Na(+)-, K(+)-pump inhibition by fatty acids of this water. Naftusia absorption induces appearance of inhibitors of Na(+)-, K(+)-ATPase enzymic system in blood serum of rats. Artificial salt Naftusia analog (ASNA) has induced contrary changes in the water-electrolytic balance and activated Na(+)-, K(+)-ATPase. Blood serum of ASNA-loaded rats acquired ability to activate Na(+)-, K(+)-pump of epitheliocytes in intact rats.
