We measured the spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation times (T1 and T2, respectively) and the nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) of 31P nuclei of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) in living erythrocytes. The relaxation of water protons was also studied. Phosphorus relaxation is pH-dependent due to a modification of the binding of 2,3-DPG to hemoglobin. We compared the results obtained with normal and uremic erythrocytes. In uremic erythrocytes the 31P relaxation rates are increased, but the intraerythrocytic pH variation in uremic erythrocytes cannot itself explain this increase. A possible role of dialysable substances may explain the increased relaxation rate.

D006859	Hydrogen	The first chemical element in the periodic table with atomic symbol H, and atomic number 1. Protium (atomic weight 1) is by far the most common hydrogen isotope. Hydrogen also exists as the stable isotope DEUTERIUM (atomic weight 2) and the radioactive isotope TRITIUM (atomic weight 3). Hydrogen forms into a diatomic molecule at room temperature and appears as a highly flammable colorless and odorless gas.	Protium,Hydrogen-1

D014511	Uremia	A clinical syndrome associated with the retention of renal waste products or uremic toxins in the blood. It is usually the result of RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Most uremic toxins are end products of protein or nitrogen CATABOLISM, such as UREA or CREATININE. Severe uremia can lead to multiple organ dysfunctions with a constellation of symptoms.	Uremias
