THE MECHANISM OF THE DIURETIC ACTION OF SECRETIN PREPARATIONS

Abstract
Experiments on dogs showed that the diuretic effect of secretin preparations is dependent upon their secretory stimulation of pancreatic juice and bile and occurs only when these secretions have access to the small intestine. Secretin diuresis is not dependent upon the integrity of the hypophysis or upon a local specific effect upon the kidney.
