| Abstrakt: | The incidence of salt-sensitive hypertension is quite common and varies between 30-60% in hypertensive patients. Regarding the causal role of high salt intake in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension, recent evidence has demonstrated that the gut through its microbiota plays a significant role in its genesis. Besides the gut, the kidneys also play important role in salt-sensitive hypertension and there is clinical and experimental evidence of an interrelationship between the gut and the kidneys in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension through the so-called "gastro-renal axis." The gut besides being an absorptive organ, it is also a hormonal secretory organ involving the secretion of gastrin, dopamine, norepinephrine, angiotensin, and aldosterone which through their action with the kidneys are involved in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension. In addition, the kidneys exert a protective role against the development of hypertension through the secretion of prostaglandins and their vasodilatory action. To assess the current evidence on the role of high salt intake and the interplay of the gut and kidneys in its development, a Medline search of the English literature was contacted between 2012 and 2022, and 46 pertinent papers were selected. These papers together with collateral literature will be discussed in this review. Competing Interests: Disclosure: The authors declare no conflict of interest.
