SUMMARY1. Total body sodium of male and female spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats was estimated weekly during the first 8 weeks of life by measuring exchangeable sodium (ENa). Blood pressure and sodium intake was measured from weeks 4 to 8.2. SHR had significantly higher blood pressure and sodium intake than WKY from 4 to 8 weeks of age.3. ENa was higher in SHR than WKY throughout the first 8 weeks of life.4. Relative sodium retention was observed in SHR during weeks 5 to 8 despite a significant rise in SHR blood pressure and fall in sodium intake.5. These findings suggest a change in the renal pressure/natriuresis relationship at this age in the SHR.
