The concentration of intracellular sodium [Na+]i has been measured in the perfused rat kidney using 23Na nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in combination with the extracellular shift reagent Dy(PPPi)7-(2). The data show 100% visibility of Na+ in interstitial spaces. A measurement of the resonance intensities of intra- and extracellular 23Na ions along with a knowledge of the extracellular space as a fraction of the total kidney water space yielded an average [Na+]i of 27 +/- 2 mM for the kidney at 37 degrees C. After prolonged ischemia [Na+]i rose to approach that in the external medium. In the absence of 5% albumin in the perfusion medium, the linewidth of the 35Cl resonance of an adult kidney (45 Hz) was about twofold larger than that of the medium alone (25 Hz). In contrast, the linewidth of 35Cl resonance of an adult kidney perfused with an albumin-containing medium (82 Hz) was only about 27% of that from the medium alone (300 Hz). We interpret this effect to be due to compartmentation of albumin in the extracellular space such that the interstitial space is not freely accessible to albumin. However, for a developing, immature kidney from a growing animal, perfused with an albumin-containing medium, the linewidth of the 35Cl resonance (233 Hz) was only slightly less than that of the medium alone (300 Hz), indicating a much greater albumin permeability of the capillary walls. 19F NMR of a perfused adult kidney, loaded with the membrane-impermeant intracellular calcium indicator 5FBAPTA, yielded a value of 256 nM for [Ca2+]i. Induction of ischemia for 10 min caused the [Ca2+]i to rapidly rise to 660 nM, which could not be fully reversed by reperfusion, suggesting irreversible injury.
