Plasma blood urea nitrogen and electrolyte concentrations
| Genotype | BUN, mg/dL | Na, mM | K, mM | Cl, mM | CO2, mM |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Add1+/+ | 24.9 ± 5.7 (21) | 150.7 ± 10.3 (36) | 8.6 ± 2.2 (25) | 123.8 ± 10.8 (36) | 14.9 ± 2.1 (36) |
| Add1−/− | 26.3 ± 8.9 (11) | 145.8 ± 9.1 (30) | 8.4 ± 2.5 (22) | 122.0 ± 9.7 (30) | 13.0 ± 2.4 (30) |
All mice were 4 weeks of age or more. Number in parentheses is sample n. All values X plus or minus SD. Data shown exclude all mice showing any signs of hydrocephalus.
BUN indicates blood urea nitrogen; Na, plasma sodium; K, plasma potassium; Cl, plasma chloride; and CO2, plasma carbon dioxide.
