Altered renal alpha 2-adrenergic receptor regulation in genetically hypertensive rats.
Renal alpha 1 and alpha 2-adrenergic receptors were quantified in Dahl salt-sensitive and salt-resistant rats, in Okamoto-Aoki spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), in Wistar Kyoto "normotensive" (WKY), and in Charles River rats made hypertensive by the Grollman ligature technique and by DOC-NaCl administration after unilateral nephrectomy. The effect of high dietary NaCl on renal alpha recept...
متن کاملRenal alpha-adrenergic receptor abnormality in the spontaneously hypertensive rat.
Activation of renal alpha-adrenergic receptors induces vasoconstriction, proximal tubular reabsorption of sodium, and inhibition of renal release. Excesses of these effects are present in varying degrees in animal models of, and in patients with, "essential" hypertension. Since essential hypertension is genetically determined, we sought abnormalities of renal alpha-adrenergic receptors in the O...
متن کاملRole of renal alpha 2-adrenergic receptors in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
To identify a physiological role for renal alpha 2 adrenergic receptors, renal vascular and tubular responses to administration of graded frequencies of renal nerve stimulation or graded doses of adrenergic agonists were determined in anesthetized spontaneously hypertensive, Wistar-Kyoto, and Sprague-Dawley rats. Renal vasoconstrictor responses to renal nerve stimulation and alpha 1-adrenergic ...
متن کاملAltered AT1 receptor regulation of ETB receptors in renal proximal tubule cells of spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The renin-angiotensin and endothelin systems regulate blood pressure, in part, by affecting renal tubular sodium transport. In rodents, ETB receptors decrease proximal tubular reabsorption, whereas AT1 receptors produce the opposite effect. We hypothesize that ETB and AT1 receptors interact at the receptor level, and that the interaction is altered in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). In ...
متن کاملMechanism of down-regulation of alpha-2 adrenergic receptor subtypes.
Long-term exposure to agonist down-regulates receptor expression for many G protein-coupled receptors. This decrease in receptor density could occur through either an increase in receptor degradation or a decrease in receptor synthesis. We studied the mechanism of down-regulation of the alpha-2A and alpha-2B adrenergic receptor subtypes transfected into the Chinese hamster ovary cell line as we...
