Effects of Renal Arterial Infusion of Sodium and Potassium on Renln Secretion in the Dog
نویسنده
چکیده
The nonfiltering kidney model was used to determine whether sodium or potassium inhibits renin secretion in the absence of a functional macula densa in dogs with thoracic inferior vena caval constriction. The control rate of renin secretion was high, and decreases were readily recognized. After control observations, hypertonic sodium chloride or hypertonic potassium chloride was infused into the renal artery for 1 hour, and renin secretion was measured at 15-minute intervals. An increase in renal venous plasma sodium concentration from 141 to 154—158 mEq/liter caused no change in renin secretion for the first 45 minutes of infusion in dogs with a nonfiltering kidney. In contrast, dogs with thoracic caval constriction but with a filtering kidney showed a striking decrease in renin secretion during intrarenal sodium infusion (3,097 to 1,061 ng angiotensin/min, P < 0.02). An increase in renal venous plasma potassium concentration from 3.9 to 6.1 mEq/liter in one group of dogs and from 4.9 to 8.3 mEq/liter in a second group also caused no change in renin secretion in the nonfiltering kidney of dogs with thoracic caval constriction. However, in dogs with thoracic caval constriction and a filtering kidney, potassium infusion decreased renin secretion (1,952 to 984 ng angiotensin/min, P<0 .05 ) . In all experiments, infusion of sodium chloride or potassium chloride failed to produce a significant change in renal blood flow, arterial blood pressure, or inferior vena caval pressure. Therefore, no evidence was obtained for a vascular action or a direct effect of sodium or potassium on the juxtagiomerular cells, and the data are consistent with an action mediated by the renal tubular system.

Interruption of the Renin-Angiotensin System in Hypertensive Patients by Captopril Induces Sustained Reduction in Aldosterone Secretion, Potassium Retention and Natriuresis
The orally active angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, captopril, was administered to 23 hypertensive patients maintained for 10 days on a constant sodium and potassium intake. Because the antihypertensive action of the drug might depend in part oo a functional reduction in angiotensin II levels, we sought to determine whether continuous blockade of the renln axis might be reflected in indu...

Introduction: Renal ischemia-reperfusion (RIR) may disturb renin-angiotensin system components. In this study, the effects of Mas receptor (A779) and AT2 receptor (PD123319) antagonists were examined in RIR rats. Methods: Total 60 male and female Wistar rats were assigned into 10 groups (n=6 in each group), including sham-operated group, RIR groups treated with the vehicle, A779, PD123319, ...
