Abstract: | Summary Cyclic GMP concentrations were measured in rat cecum mucosa in vivo when the net absorption of sodium, chloride and fluid was stimulated by methylprednisolone (MP). Whereas Na–K-ATPase specific activity was increased by MP, suggesting enhanced active sodium transport, cyclic GMP levels remained unaffected.Acknowledgments. We thank Miss U.
