Abstract
In this investigation, we showed that specific osmoreceptors are present in the hindlimbs of dogs. Stimulation of these receptors with a hypertonic solution (5% sodium chloride or 27.5% glucose) inhibited diuresis. This reaction disappeared after division of the cord at the level Th5–6, indicating that the reaction must be reflex in nature.
