Distinct osmoregulatory responses to sodium loading in patients with altered glycosaminoglycan structure: a randomized cross-over trial

Abstract Background By binding to negatively charged polysaccharides called glycosaminoglycans, sodium can be stored in the body—particularly in the skin—without concurrent water retention. Concordantly, individuals with changed glycosaminoglycan structure (e.g. type 1 diabetes (DM1) and hereditary...
