Abstract
The effect of a decrease in the extracellular volume (by peritoneal dialysis with 10% glucose) on the plasma renin and erythropoietic activity and also on the renin activity of the renal cortex was investigated. The renin and erythropoietic activity of the experimental animals was considerably increased. It is suggested that renin and erythropoietin are two components of a single regulatory system ensuring the optimal oxygen sypply to the tissues.
