Is sodium filtered through the blood?
Not sure what you mean by that, but sodium excretion and retention is regulated primarily by the kidney. Sodium isn't really filtered by the kidney, but what happens is that it is so small that it gets by the filtering mechanism of the kidney. The kidney then has special pumps and channels in the functional unit (nephrons) which then takes that sodium back in.
