Abstract
Cardiotonicsteroids(CTS),longusedtotreatheartfailure,areendogenouslyproducedin
mammals.Amongthemarethehydrophiliccardenolideouabainandthemorehydrophobic

physiologicaleffectsofendogenousouabainonbloodpressureandcardiacactivityare
consistentwiththe"Na(+)lag"hypothesis.Thishypothesisassumesthat,incardiacandarterial
