[Metabolic clearance rate of oxytocin in human subjects].
Oxytocin metabolism seems to occur mainly in the kidney and the liver. Placental cystine amino peptidase (CAP), which inactivates oxytocin by cleavage of the bond between the N-terminal cystine residue and adjacent tyrosine, rises progressively with advancing gestation. The role of CAP in oxytocin metabolism is not clear. To clarify this issue, the authors measure oxytocin metabolic clearance r...
متن کاملAldosterone metabolism in pregnant ewes and fetal and newborn lambs.
Twenty primiparous Limousine ewes whose fetuses had been chronically catheterized in utero on day 120 of gestation were used. Plasma aldosterone levels were measured by radioimmunoassay during the last 15 days of gestation both in dams and fetuses, and during the first neonatal week in lambs. Aldosterone metabolic clearance rates in dams, fetuses and newborns were determined by continuous infus...
متن کاملRenal Effects of Angiotensin Ii Infusions in Normotensive Pregnant and Nonpregnant Women.
• Infusion of angiotensin n has profound effects upon renal function in normotensive subjects. The glomerular nitration rate and renal plasma flow are reduced and filtration fraction rises; there is a marked decrease in urine volume and in excretion of sodium, potassium, and chloride." Although angiotensin ir is the most potent pressor substance known, doses even too small to raise the blood pr...

Background: The aim of this study was to compare time action profile of regular human Insulin produced by Exir pharmaceutical Co. and Actrapid® HM produced by Novo Nordisk with euglycemic clamp technique for the first time in Iran. Methods: Euglycemic glucose clamps were performed with two Insulin brands in a single-center, randomized, double-blind, and crossover study on 6 healthy male volunt...
متن کاملDifferential effects of mineralocorticoid blockade on the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis in pregnant and nonpregnant ewes.
During pregnancy, plasma ACTH and cortisol are chronically increased; this appears to occur through a reset of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) activity. We have hypothesized that differences in mineralocorticoid receptor activity in pregnancy may alter feedback inhibition of the HPA axis. We tested the effect of MR antagonism in pregnant and nonpregnant ewes infused for 4 h with saline or t...
