The haemodynamic and renin responses to prostacyclin (PGI2) infusion were examined in sheep during sodium depletion and dietary sodium restriction. The haemodynamic effects of PGI2 infusion in sodium depleted and sodium restricted sheep were similar to those obtained in the sodium replete animal. The renin proportionate response to PGI2 was not altered by sodium restriction but blunted by sodium depletion, compatible with the hypothesis that endogenous PGI2 is high in Na depletion. 相似文献

Chronically catheterised fetal sheep (117-134 days) were cooled in utero via a tubing coil placed around the fetal trunk through which cold water was circulated for one hour. The fetal core temperature was reduced by 5.51 +/- 0.61 degrees C. This hypothermia was associated with tachycardia (P less than 0.001) and hypertension (P less than 0.001) (n = 12). The tachycardia was abolished by treatment with propranolol (n = 4) and the hypertension by treatment with phentolamine (n = 5). Blood flow in the left umbilical artery was measured by an electromagnetic flow probe in 4 fetuses and rose (P less than 0.001) with fetal cooling. The increase in blood flow was abolished by treatment with either phentolamine or propranolol. These observations are consistent with a redistribution of fetal blood flow from peripheral tissues to placental and thermogenic tissues during cooling. Fetal plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations rose (P less than 0.01) during fetal cooling (n = 5). These studies demonstrate that catecholamine and cardiovascular responses to environmental hypothermia have differentiated prior to birth in the sheep fetus. 相似文献

Effect of prostacyclin infusion on active and inactive renin release in the isolated perfused kidney
Hironori Ohde Toshio Ogihara Mitsuaki Nakamaru Jitsuo Higaki Seiji Gotoh Kazuko Masuo Atsuhiro Ohtsuka Shuichi Saeki Yuichi Kumahara 《Life sciences》1982,31(26):3031-3035
The effect of prostacyclin infusion into the renal artery of the isolated perfused hog kidney on the release of active and inactive renin was investigated. Infusion of prostacyclin at a rate of 0.1 μg/min resulted in a significant increase (p<0.01) in active renin and a significant fall (p<0.01) in inactive renin. Prostacyclin also increased urinary kallikrein excretion (p<0.05). The results indicate that the kidney secretes not only active renin but also inactive renin, and suggest that prostacyclin stimulates the conversion of inactive renin to the active form through the activation of the renal kallikrein system. 相似文献

The effect of 90-min heat exposure (46 degrees C, 35 mbar) on plasma aldosterone (PA) patterns was studied and the respective roles of plasma renin activity (PRA), adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), Na+ and K+ concentrations in the control of PA response were in investigated in eight subjects on a low sodium diet and in five subjects on a high sodium diet. In all subjects, transitory PA increases of varying importance were observed, which were not related to sweat losses (less than 1% bodyweight) or to rectal temperature rise. In sodium-repleted subjects, basal PA and PRA levels as well as heat-induced rises were low (mean PA peak level = 12.62 +/- 1.15 ng/100 ml). They were enhanced by sodium depletion and PA reached a mean peak level of 34.07 +/- 2.73 ng/100 ml. But, in both conditions, the heat-induced PA peaks were 3-times higher than the initial levels. PA correlated with PRA in all but one of the sodium-repleted subjects and in 6 of the 8 sodium-depleted subjects. ACTH release, as measured by plasma cortisol (PC) levels, occurred in those subjects who noted an increased feeling of annoyance and discomfort. Thus, PA correlated positively with PC in 4 sodium-depleted subjects. A high sodium intake improved heat-tolerance. Plasma K+ and Na+ concentrations were not significantly modified by exposure to heat. PA increases can occur without concomitant changes in PRA, PC, K+ or Na+, which suggests that an additional factor may play a role in aldosterone regulation during acute heat exposure. 相似文献

Prostacyclin(or epoprostenol), an arachidonic acid metabolite, is aneffective treatment for patients with primary pulmonary hypertension.Interruption of chronic prostacyclin infusion can result in recurrentsymptoms of dyspnea and fatigue. The etiology of this phenomenon isunknown. We hypothesized that sympathoadrenal activation could lead toincreased vascular tone after abrupt termination of the infusion. Toevaluate this effect, we monitored six chronically instrumented, awakesheep during and after infusion of prostacyclin. Prostacyclin decreasedmean arterial pressure (MAP) by 14% and increased cardiac output by33%. After the infusion ceased, MAP rebounded 23% above baseline, andcardiac output decreased by 28% from peak values within 10 min. Wewere unable to demonstrate an increase in norepinephrine levels aftercessation of prostacyclin, nor did -adrenergic blockade affectpostinfusion hemodynamics. However, plasma renin activity increased>10-fold at peak infusion and remained elevated for up to 2 h afterdiscontinuation of prostacyclin. Coinfusion of the angiotensinII-receptor antagonist L-158,809 resulted in complete abrogation of thepostcessation rise in MAP. We conclude that renin-angiotensin systemactivation is primarily responsible for systemic hypertension occurringafter abrupt cessation of prostacyclin infusion in sheep and thatangiotensin II receptor blockade prevents this response. Our data donot support a role for sympathetic nervous system activation in thesystemic pressor response after prostacyclin infusion. 相似文献

Effect of thyroidectomy on cardiovascular responses to hypoxia and tyramine infusion in fetal sheep 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fetal sheep were thyroidectomized at 80 days' gestation and reoperated at 118-122 days for insertion of vascular catheters. The effects of hypoxaemia and intravenous tyramine infusion on plasma catecholamine concentrations, blood pressure and heart rate were then determined in experiments at 125-135 days' gestation. Age matched intact fetuses were also studied. Thyroidectomy was associated with increased concentrations of noradrenaline, adrenaline and dopamine in some thoracic and abdominal organs, increased noradrenaline concentrations in the cerebellum, and decreased adrenaline concentrations in the hypothalamus, cervical spinal cord, and superior cervical and inferior mesenteric ganglia. Arterial pressure was significantly lower in the thyroidectomized fetuses (34.0 +/- 0.15 mmHg) than in intact fetuses (44.7 +/- 0.2 mmHg; p less than 0.001). In contrast, plasma noradrenaline concentrations were significantly higher in the thyroidectomized fetuses (2.04 +/- 0.25 ng/ml) compared to the intact fetuses (0.99 +/- 0.08 ng/ml; P less than 0.001). In the intact fetuses there was a significant increase in plasma noradrenaline concentration and blood pressure during hypoxaemia, and bradycardia at the onset of hypoxaemia. In contrast, in the thyroidectomized fetuses hypoxaemia did not cause significant change in plasma catecholamine concentrations, blood pressure or heart rate. Infusion of tyramine produced a 1.9-fold increase of plasma noradrenaline in thyroidectomized fetuses compared to a 9.2-fold increase in the intact fetuses (P less than 0.05). Tyramine infusion caused a similar proportional increase of blood pressure in both thyroidectomized and intact fetuses. Heart rate decreased during the tyramine-induced hypertension in the intact fetus, but increased in the thyroidectomized fetuses.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Eight healthy young men were studied during three periods of heat exposure in a Finnish sauna bath: at 80 degrees C dry bulb (80 D) and 100 degrees C dry bulb (100 D) temperatures until subjective discomfort, and in 80 degrees C dry heat, becoming humid (80 DH) until subjective exhaustion. Oral temperature increased 1.1 degrees C at 80 D, 1.9 degrees C at 100 D and 3.2 degrees C at 80 DH. Heart rate increased about 60% at 80 D, 90% at 100 D and 130% at 80 DH. Plasma noradrenaline increased about 100% at 80 D, 160% at 100 D and 310% at 80 DH. Adrenaline did not change. Plasma prolactin increased 2-fold at 80 D, 7-fold at 100 D and 10-fold at 80 DH. Blood concentrations of the beta-endorphin immunoreactivity at 100 D, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) at 100 D and 80 DH, growth hormone at 100 D and testosterone at 80 DH also increased, but cortisol at 80 D and 100 D decreased. The plasma prostaglandin E2 and serum thromboxane B2 levels did not change. Patterns related to heat exposure were observed for heart rate, plasma noradrenaline, ACTH and prolactin in the three study periods. 相似文献

We determined the effects of infusion of prostacyclin (PGI2) and 6-alpha-carba-PGI2 (6-cPGI2), a stable PGI2 analogue, on pulmonary transvascular fluid and protein fluxes after intravascular coagulation induced by thrombin. Studies were made in control awake sheep prepared with lung lymph fistulas (n = 6) and in similarly prepared awake sheep pretreated with either 6-cPGI2 (n = 5) or PGI2 (n = 5). Both prostacyclin compounds (500 ng X kg-1 X min-1) were infused intravenously. All groups were challenged with 80 U/kg thrombin. Pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa), pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), pulmonary lymph flow (Qlym), lymph protein clearance (Qlym X lymph/plasma protein concentration ratio), and neutrophil and platelet counts were determined. In vitro tests assessed sheep neutrophil chemotaxis and chemiluminescence and platelet aggregation. In both 6-cPGI2 and PGI2 groups, the increases in Qlym after thrombin were less than those in the control group. The increase in lymph protein clearance in the 6-cPGI2 group was the same as that in control, whereas the increase in clearance in the PGI2 group was reduced. PVR and Ppa increased to a greater extent in the 6-cPGI2 group than in the control group, whereas the increases in PVR and Ppa were inhibited in the PGI2 group. Neutrophil and platelet counts decreased after thrombin in PGI2 and 6-cPGI2 groups, as they did in the control group. Neither 6-cPGI2 altered neutrophil chemotaxis induced by thrombin and chemiluminescence induced by opsonized zymosan. Both prostacyclin compounds inhibited platelet aggregation induced by ADP or thrombin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Fetal uninephrectomy (uni-x) at 100 days of gestation results in compensatory nephrogenesis in the remaining kidney, resulting in a 30% reduction in total nephron number in male sheep. Recently, we showed that uni-x males at 6 mo of age have elevated arterial pressure, reduced renal blood flow (RBF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and low plasma renin levels (Singh R, Denton K, Bertram J, Jefferies A, Head G, Lombardo P, Schneider-Kolsky M, Moritz K. J Hypertens 27: 386-396, 2009; Singh R, Denton K, Jefferies A, Bertram J, Moritz K. Clin Sci (Lond) 118: 669-680, 2010). We hypothesized this was due to upregulation of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS). In this study, renal responses to ANG II infusion and ANG II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade were examined in the same 6-mo-old male sheep. Uni-x animals had reduced levels of renal tissue and plasma renin and ANG II. Renal gene expression of renin, and gene and protein levels of AT1R and AT2R, were significantly lower in uni-x animals. In response to graded ANG II infusion, sham animals had the expected decrease in conscious RBF and GFR. Interestingly, the response was biphasic in uni-x sheep, with GFR initially decreasing, but then increasing at higher ANG II doses (34 ± 7%; P(group × treatment) < 0.001), due to a paradoxical decrease in renal vascular resistance (P(group × treatment) < 0.001). In response to AT1R blockade, while GFR and RBF responded similarly between groups, there was a marked increase in sodium excretion in uni-x compared with sham sheep (209 ± 35 vs. 25 ± 12%; P < 0.001). In conclusion, in 6-mo-old male sheep born with a single kidney, these studies demonstrate that this is a low-renin form of hypertension, in which responses to ANG II are perturbed and the intrarenal RAS is downregulated. 相似文献

Sheep were subjected to moderate (5 km/h) and strenuous (7 km/h) exercise on a treadmill for 45 min. After training, the sheep were again exercised. Glucagon concentrations in plasma increased in all sheep after commencement of exercise. These increases were related directly to the severity of exercise. The glucagon response also was dependent upon training with a lesser increase in trained animals than in untrained animals running at the same speed. Insulin concentrations in plasma decreased significantly only during strenuous exercise in untrained sheep. 相似文献

The relationship between renin secretion and PGI2 production, in response to intrarenal infusion of norepinephrine, was examined in the isolated perfused rat kidney. Infusion of norepinephrine in a dose which caused substantial vasoconstriction (100 ng/min), markedly increased urinary excretion of 6-keto PGF1α, the stable derivative of PGI2, without significantly altering renin secretion measured in the effluent perfusate. No change in urinary 6-keto PGF1α occurred when vasoconstriction was prevented by infusing the alpha-adrenoceptor blocking drug phenoxybenzamine (2 × 103 ng/min) alongside norepinephrine 100 ng/min). However, under these conditions there was marked stimulation of renin secretion which, as has been demonstrated previously, is mediated by a beta-adrenoceptor. There were significant increase in urine flow rates during both vasoconstrictor and non-vasoconstrictor infusions. These findings clearly indicate that in the rat kidney prostacyclin production and renin release in response to norepinephrine are dissociated. 相似文献

Renal clearance experiments were performed on six Merino ewes in which plasma phosphate concentrations were increased by the intravenous infusion of isohydric sodium phosphate. As the phosphate load to the kidney increased, the renal tubular reabsorptive capacity became saturated and a definite tubular maximum for phosphate reabsorption (Tmp) was demonstrated. The Tmp was directly related to the glomerular filtration rate and had a mean value of 333-1+/-27-0 (s.e.m.) mumol/min or 416-6+/-13-5 mumol/100 ml glomerular filtrate. Calcium infused concurrently with phosphate in order to maintain plasma total calcium levels did not alter the Tmp. Ultrafilterability of calcium and phosphate in the plasma decreased with phosphate infusion and this was accentuated by an accompanying calcium infusion. The Tmp in sheep's kidney is higher than in non-ruminant animals and the implications of this are discussed. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to compare some husbandry procedures on the base of physiological stress parameters and evaluate the welfare status in sheep. Forty ewes were used as the study material. Measurements were taken during several routine husbandry procedures such as milking, shearing, weighing, loading and hoof care. Data regarding time spent for each application, as well as heart and respiratory rates were recorded during the applications. Blood samples were taken 15 min before and after each application and malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione-peroxidase (GSH-Px), cortisol T3 and T4 parameters were measured. In addition, changes in the same parameters between pre- and post-application periods were evaluated. According to the results, machine milking caused less stress than hand milking. No significant difference was seen between shearing methods for hand shearer or clipper; however, both applications caused stress in animals. The results for weighing methods of animals demonstrated significant differences in cortisol, T3 and T4 values in favor of traditional method. Cortisol, T3 and T4 levels were significantly higher in manual loading compared with loading by ramp. Regarding hoof care, all the examined parameters differed in favor of modern method. On the other hand, significant differences were determined between the stress parameters regarding pre- and post-applications. All values differed for hand milking while no significant difference was observed in MDA and T3 values in machine milking group. Parameters in weighing groups changed significantly. For loading process, GSH, cortisol, T3 and T4 values differed in both treatment groups. With regard to hoof care, parameters except T4 in laying group differed significantly. An increase occurred in minute-based measurements of heart and respiratory rates parallel to physiological data. The number of the respiratory rates during the applications differed except for the shearing process. All the parameters displayed significant differences between groups in terms of heart rates. Time spent for each application also differed between groups. Time saved for milking, shearing, weighing, loading and hoof care was 3.23 min, 4.37 min, 1.71 min, 7.85 s and 1.55 min, respectively. These results appear to provide a tangible advantage of using new husbandry methods to the breeders. It was concluded that using new methods in sheep husbandry procedures provided advantages in terms of saving time and reducing labor, as well as improved conditions for welfare of animals. In addition, it facilitated the routine works and flock husbandry. 相似文献

The efficacy of continuous low-dose xylazine infusion following an initial loading dose in providing analgesia in sheep was examined using an algesimetry method based on a leg lifting response to an electrical stimulus. Sheep received a 5 mg intramuscular injection of xylazine followed by continuous infusion of intravenous xylazine (2mg/h) for 90 min. This treatment resulted in significant increases in the level of current required to elicit a leg lifting response (287% of baseline) and steady state analgesia was maintained from 10 min after the start of the infusion until the end of the experimental period. This protocol appears to be a simple and effective regimen for providing steady state analgesia in sheep. 相似文献

Dissociation of beta-adrenergic stimulation of renin secretion and prostacyclin synthesis in the rabbit kidney 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of inhibition of prostaglandin (PG) synthesis with indomethacin on basal and isoproterenol-stimulated renin secretion was examined in the isolated perfused rabbit kidney. 6-keto PGF1 alpha' the stable metabolite of prostacyclin, was measured in urine by radioimmunoassay using 125I labelled histamine coupled to 6-keto PGF1 alpha as ligand. The level in urine, prior to isolation and perfusion of the kidney, was 10.7 +/- 5.6 ng/min, and this was reduced to 0.32 +/- 0.25 ng/min (P less than 0.05) in rabbits treated with 2.0 mg/kg of indomethacin. Renin release was markedly stimulated by intrarenal infusion of isoproterenol (0.1 microgram/min) but urinary 6-keto PGF1 alpha did not change. These responses were not affected by indomethacin treatment. Renal perfusion pressure, perfusate flow rate and consequently renal vascular resistance, remained relatively constant during the course of perfusion and were unaltered by indomethacin treatment. These results therefore do not support a role for PGs, and in particular prostacyclin, in the renin response to beta-adrenergic stimulation with isoproterenol. 相似文献
