    Abstract:
    The data on erythrocyte membrane permeability for Na and K ions, obtained in the studies of Na+-K+ cotransport in erythrocytes of 38 patients with essential hypertension, stage I and II, 9 patients with borderline hypertension and 12 patients with symptomatic (renal) hypertension are reviewed. The data demonstrate that Na+-K+ cotransport in Na+ loaded and K+-depleted erythrocytes under the effect of P-chlormercuribenzoate was considerably reduced in patients with essential hypertension and borderline hypertension than in the control group. No deviations from the normal Na+-K+ cotransport were observed in renal hypertension. Disturbances of erythrocyte membrane permeability have been also revealed in practically healthy subjects (15 cases) with family history of hypertension.
