Abstract
The renotropic action of growth hormone is one of its earliest observable effects. Three mg/kg/ day for 3 days increased filtration rate, renal plasma flow, urea clearance and sulfate Tm in normal dogs. In 3 of 4 dogs the fasting blood glucose increased. Urea excretion decreased as a result of enhanced protein anabolism, but owing to the increased urea clearance the plasma urea concentration decreased relatively more than the urea excretion.Keywords
