An elderly patient complains of muscle weakness and lethargy. A urine specimen reveals a Na+ concentration of 600 mmol/L and an osmolarity of 1200 mOsm/L. Additional laboratory tests provide the following information: plasma Na+ concentration = 167 mmol/L, plasma renin activity = 4 ng angiotensin I/ml/hr (normal = 1), plasma antidiuretic hormone (ADH) = 60 pg/ml (normal = 3 pg/ml), and plasma aldosterone = 15 ng/dL (normal = 6 ng/dL). Which of the following is the most likely reason for this patient’s hypernatremia?

Deuterated acetyl-coenzyme A (-CD3 instead of –CH3) was used in an experiment to study the TCA cycle. Upon analysis of the metabolites, it was found that deuterium (D) was present in a wide variety of compounds; even compounds not associated with the citric acid cycle. This is due to
