Salt appetite was quantified in sheep by measuring the relative amounts of high-salt (266 meq/kg) and low-salt (6 meq/kg) pelleted alfalfa that they ate. Given a choice of these two foods, normal sheep ate twice as much low-salt as high-salt pellets. Following DOCA administration the sheep rapidly developed an increased salt appetite, and after 10 days they ate approximately three times as much high-salt as low-salt pellets. Their choice rapidly reverted to control values after the end of the DOCA treatment. The changes in salt appetite were accompanied by changes in thirst and mean arterial pressure. We hypothesize that these effects of DOCA reflect changes that parallel those this mineralocorticoid causes in the hypothalamic regulatory centers for salt appetite, thirst, and blood pressure. 相似文献

The fact that drinking in response to some hypovolemic stimuli was attenuated by nephrectomy but not by ureteric ligation led to the suggestion that the renal renin-angiotensin system may play a role in hypovolemic thirst. The isolation of a thirst factor from the kidney and the demonstration that this substance was renin supported the hypothesis. Subsequently, it was shown that the effects of renin on drinking were mediated through angiotensin II, which proved to be a potent dipsogenic substance when administered systemically or injected directly into the brain. Recently, it has been shown that angiotensin II, infused intravenously or through the carotid artery at rates that produce increases in plasma angiotensin II levels similar to those that occur in mild sodium depletion, causes the water-replete animal to drink. This discovery establishes that angiotensin is a physiological stimulus to drinking but it leaves open the question of the extent of the involvement of renal renin in normal thirst. Other unsolved problems are the role of cerebral isorenin in angiotensin thirst and its relationship with renal renin, and in view of its stimulating action on sodium intake when infused into the brain, whether angiotensin plays a significant role in sodium appetite. 相似文献

The present studies investigated the influence of presystemic signals on the control of thirst, salt appetite, and vasopressin (VP) secretion in rats during nonhypotensive hypovolemia. Rats were injected with 30% polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution, deprived of food and water overnight, and then allowed to drink water, 0.15 M NaCl, or 0.30 M NaCl. The PEG treatment, which produced 30-40% plasma volume deficits, elicited rapid intakes in an initial bout of drinking, but rats consumed much more 0.15 M NaCl than water or 0.30 M NaCl. In considering why drinking stopped sooner when water or concentrated saline was ingested, it seemed relevant that little or no change in systemic plasma Na(+) concentration was observed during the initial bouts and that the partial repair of hypovolemia was comparable, regardless of which fluid was consumed. In rats that drank 0.15 M NaCl, gastric emptying was fastest and the combined volume of ingested fluid in the stomach and small intestine was largest. These and other observations are consistent with the hypothesis that fluid ingestion by hypovolemic rats is inhibited by distension of the stomach and proximal small intestine and that movement of dilute or concentrated fluid into the small intestine provides another presystemic signal that inhibits thirst or salt appetite, respectively. On the other hand, an early effect of water or saline consumption on VP secretion in PEG-treated rats was not observed, in contrast to recent findings in dehydrated rats. Thus the controls of fluid ingestion and VP secretion are similar but not identical during hypovolemia. 相似文献

Young male red deer and Suffolk X (Finn X Dorset) sheep were kept on an artificial photoperiod such that two cycles of daylength occurred during one calendar year. They were penned separately, fed to appetite, weighed weekly and measured tri-weekly.Both species showed two cycles of intake, growth and gonadal activity in response to the daylength when only one would have been shown on natural photoperiod, although in the sheep these cycles were of lower amplitude than in the deer. The deer grew two sets of antlers during the study. A lag of some 3–4 months occurred between an event such as peak food intake and the time it would have been expected to occur relative to the daylength cycle. It is considered that although daylength controls these cycles, there is an endogenous rhythm which photoperiod cannot completely suppress. 相似文献

We examined the effects of hypotension and fluid depletion on water and sodium ingestion in rats in response to intracerebroventricular infusions of ANG II. Hypotension was produced by intravenous infusion of the vasodilator drug minoxidil (25 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) concurrently with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor captopril (0.33 mg/min) to prevent endogenous ANG II formation. Hypotension increased water intake in response to intracerebroventricular ANG II (30 ng/h) but not intake of 0.3 M NaCl solution and caused significant urinary retention of water and sodium. Acute fluid depletion was produced by subcutaneous injections of furosemide (10 mg/kg body wt) either alone or with captopril (100 mg/kg body wt sc) before intracerebroventricular ANG II (15 or 30 ng/h) administration. Fluid depletion increased water intake in response to the highest dose of intracerebroventricular ANG II but did not affect saline intake. In the presence of captopril, fluid depletion increased intakes of both water and saline in response to both doses of intracerebroventricular ANG II. Because captopril administration causes hypotension in fluid-depleted animals, the results of the two experiments suggest that hypotension in fluid-replete animals preferentially increases water intake in response to intracerebroventricular ANG II and in fluid-depleted animals increases both salt and water intake in response to intracerebroventricular ANG II. 相似文献

Long-standing diabetes can result in the development of cardiomyopathy, which can be accompanied by myocardial fibrosis. Although exposure of cultured kidney and skin fibroblasts to high glucose (HG) concentration is known to increase collagen synthesis, little is known about cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). Therefore, we determined the influence of HG conditions on CF functions and the effects of losartan and vitamin E in these responses. We cultured rat CFs in either normal glucose (NG; 5.5 mM) or HG (25 mM) media and assessed changes in protein and collagen synthesis, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity, and levels of mRNA for ANG II type 1 (AT(1)) receptors. Results indicate that HG-level CFs synthesized more protein and collagen, and these effects were not due to changes in osmotic pressure. The addition of ANG II stimulated protein and collagen synthesis in NG-concentration but not HG-concentration CFs. Interestingly, losartan pretreatment blocked the HG- or ANG II-induced increases in both protein and collagen synthesis. HG or ANG II decreased total MMP activity. Decreases in MMP activity were blocked by losartan. AT(1) mRNA levels were upregulated with HG concentration. Vitamin E pretreatment blocked the effects of HG on total protein synthesis and stimulated MMP activity. Results suggest that HG levels may promote fibrosis by increasing CF protein and collagen synthesis and decreasing MMP activity. HG levels may cause these effects via the upregulation of AT(1) receptors, which can be blocked by losartan. However, vitamin E can alter HG concentration-induced changes in CF functions independently of AT(1) mRNA levels. 相似文献

Active immunoneutralization of somatostatin in the sheep: effects on gastrointestinal somatostatin expression, storage and secretion. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In the absence of somatostatin antagonists, somatostatin antisera administered acutely or animals chronically immunized against somatostatin have been used to define the functions of somatostatin. However, the circulating immunoglobulins from immunized animals may contain substantial quantities of endogenous hormones. This has not been examined for somatostatin. We have measured the amount of free somatostatin bound to circulating immunoglobulins in somatostatin-immunized animals and the effect of this sequestering of the free peptide on somatostatin secretion and gastric somatostatin synthesis and storage. The average concentration of somatostatin bound to the antisera was 6.9 nmol/l, about 1000-fold higher than normal circulating levels. Compared to control animals, there was a doubling of somatostatin mRNA in the fundus and a 4-fold increase in fundic somatostatin peptide. Similar increases were seen in pancreas, but the antrum was not significantly affected providing further evidence of distinct regulatory mechanisms between the antrum and fundus. We suggest that withdrawal of active somatostatin activates a regulatory loop to increase fundic somatostatin biosynthesis and storage. The data support the concept that somatostatin autoregulates its own expression at both the RNA and peptide level. 相似文献

We studied the effects of angiotensin II receptor blockade with losartan on thirst and sodium appetite in pregnant Wistar rats and on their adult female offspring. During maternal adaptation to pregnancy, average daily total water intake increased by 63% (P<0.01); NaCl intake by 214% (P<0.001). These changes were not blocked by daily s.c. injections of losartan (50 mg/kg bw i.p.) from gestation day (GD) 2 until GD 19 which implied that maternal AT(1) receptors were not involved in the up regulation of thirst and sodium appetite during pregnancy. Losartan blockade during gestation led to a significant and continued increase in thirst and sodium appetite in the adult female offspring. Daily water intakes were greater in the losartan (LO) group than in the vehicle-injected control group (CO), leading to a total water intake of 1114 +/- 80.6 ml/kg bw compared with 738 +/- 56.7 ml/kg bw (P<0.05) during the 8-day period of observation. Daily sodium intakes were usually 2-3 times greater in the LO group compared with the CO group, amounting to a final cumulative intake of 232 +/- 33 mmol/kg bw compared with 93.8 +/- 16.5 mmol/kg bw (P<0.05) in 8 days. These elevated sodium and water intakes were nearly counterbalanced by the increased renal excretion of water and sodium by fully functional kidneys that were not injured by the drug. Body weights were 10% lower in the LO group at the start but remained unchanged relative to the CO group during the entire 8-day period of observation. Plasma electrolytes, blood hematocrit and carotid MABP in the LO group did not differ from the CO group. 相似文献

Cerebral osmoregulation of renal sodium excretion--a response analogous to thirst and vasopressin release 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Studies in sheep have shown that renal excretion of sodium may be under osmoregulatory control. When sheep become dehydrated, or are infused intravenously with hypertonic saline, they increase renal Na excretion in addition to secreting vasopressin and developing a thirst. These natriuretic, antidiuretic, and dipsogenic responses to dehydration and hypertonicity can be greatly reduced by lowering the cerebrospinal fluid NaCl concentration or by prior ablation of tissue in the anterior wall of the third ventricle. Lowering of cerebrospinal fluid NaCl concentration also prevents postprandial natriuresis which normally occurs in association with a postprandial increase in plasma Na concentration and tonicity. We propose that there is a cerebral osmoregulatory control of Na excretion which may interact with volume influences from the cardiovascular system to regulate renal Na output. The effector mechanism from brain to kidney mediating such cerebral control of Na excretion is probably hormonal. 相似文献

Regulation of the Na,K pump in intact cells is strongly associated with the level of intracellular Na+. Experiments were carried out on intact, isolated sheep Purkinje strands at 37 degrees C. Membrane potential (Vm) was measured by an open-tipped glass electrode and intracellular Na+ activity (aNai) was calculated from the voltage difference between an Na+-selective microelectrode (ETH 227) and Vm. In some experiments, intracellular potassium (aiK) or chloride (aCli) was measured by a third separate microelectrode. Strands were loaded by Na,K pump inhibition produced by K+ removal and by increasing Na+ leak by removing Mg++ and lowering free Ca++ to 10(-8) M. Equilibrium with outside levels of Na+ was reached within 30-60 min. During sequential addition of 6 mM Mg++ and reduction of Na+ to 2.4 mM, the cells maintained a stable aNai ranging between 25 and 90 mM and Vm was -30.8 +/- 2.2 mV. The Na,K pump was reactivated with 30 mM Rb+ or K+. Vm increased over 50-60 s to -77.4 +/- 5.9 mV with Rb+ activation and to -66.0 +/- 7.7 mV with K+ activation. aiNa decreased in both cases to 0.5 +/- 0.2 mM in 5-15 min. The maximum rate of aiNa decline (maximum delta aNai/delta t) was the same with K+ and Rb+ at concentrations greater than 20 mM. The response was abolished by 10(-5) M acetylstrophantidin. Maximum delta aNai/delta t was independent of outside Na+, while aKi was negatively correlated with aNai (aKi = 88.4 - 0.86.aNai). aCli decreased by at most 3 mM during reactivation, which indicates that volume changes did not seriously affect aNai. This model provided a functional isolation of the Na,K pump, so that the relation between the pump rate (delta aNai/delta t) and aiNa could be examined. A Hill plot allowed calculation of Vmax ranging from 5.5 to 27 mM/min, which on average is equal to 25 pmol.cm-2.s-1.K 0.5 was 10.5 +/- 0.6 mM (the aNai that gives delta aNai/delta t = Vmax/2) and n equaled 1.94 +/- 0.13 (the Hill coefficient). These values were not different with K+ or Rb+ as an external activator. The number of ouabain-binding sites equaled 400 pmol.g-1, giving a maximum Na+ turnover of 300 s-1. The Na,K pump in intact Purkinje strands exhibited typical sigmoidal saturation kinetics with regard to aNai as described by the equation upsilon/Vmax = aNai(1.94)/(95.2 + aNai(1.94)). The maximum sensitivity of the Na,K pump to aiNa occurred at approximately 6 mM. 相似文献

The presence of immunoreactive and biologically active somatostatin in sheep and human milk has been demonstrated. Milk somatostatin exhibits similar chromatographic behavior to that of synthetic somatostatin-14 on both reversed-phase C18 and cation-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography columns. Milk, in contrast to plasma, contains only somatostatin-14-like material. Milk somatostatin was capable of inhibiting the basal and the prostaglandin-induced release of growth hormone from anterior pituitary cell cultures in a pattern similar to synthetic somatostatin-14. The concentrations of the peptide, as determined by radioimmunoassay, were found to be 113 pg/ml in human milk and 150 +/- 4.8 pg/ml (mean +/- range) in sheep milk. These values are severalfold higher than the corresponding concentration of the peptide in the plasma of these species. These findings are analogous to our previous observations concerning two other hypothalamic hormones, luliberin and thyroliberin [Baram, T., Koch, Y., Hazum, E. and Fridkin, M. (1977) Science (Wash. DC) 198, 300-302]. The high concentration of somatostatin and other neuropeptides in milk implies either an active concentrating mechanism in the mammary gland or an additional extrahypothalamic source for the synthesis and release of these peptides. 相似文献

Effects of somatostatin and adrenergic blockade on glucagon, insulin and glucose in exercising sheep
This study was conducted to characterize the mechanisms of hyperglycaemia in exercising sheep. Sheep were run on a treadmill for 45 min (5.5 km h-1, 8% incline) during adrenergic blockade (propranolol or phentolamine mesylate infusions) and during suppression of the rise in glucagon by infusion of somatostatin (SRIF). Propranolol did not alter the glucagon, insulin or glucose responses, except it tended to increase the metabolic clearance of glucose, presumably as a result of blocking the beta-adrenergic inhibition of glucose uptake. Phentolamine mesylate administration was associated with a suppression of the rise in glucagon concentrations, a reversal of alpha-adrenergic inhibition of insulin release and a reduction in glucose appearance during exercise. SRIF prevented the rise in glucagon and reduced insulin concentrations to below resting values. Propranolol and phentolamine mesylate did not alter the glucagon, insulin or glucose response to SRIF. However, SRIF prevented the insulin rise that occurred during phentolamine administration. The increment in glucose appearance produced in response to exercise was the same for SRIF, plus phentolamine mesylate and phentolamine mesylate in the first 25 min of exercise, but was significantly less than in the controls. During the last 20 min of exercise, glucose appearance was not significantly different from the control for any of the groups. The depression by SRIF and alpha-adrenergic blockade of the increment in glucose appearance due to exercise was associated with an impairment of the glucagon response. It appears, therefore, that glucagon may stimulate glucose production early in exercise in sheep directly, as well as by having a permissive effect. 相似文献

The Na,K-ATPase is of major importance for active ion transport across the sarcolemma and thus for electrical as well as contractile function of the myocardium. Furthermore, it is receptor for digitalis glycosides. In human studies of the regulatory aspects of myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration a major problem has been to obtain tissue samples. Methodological accomplishments in quantification of myocardial Na,K-ATPase using vanadate facilitated 3H-ouabain binding to intact samples have, however, made it possible to obtain reliable measurements on human myocardial necropsies obtained at autopsy as well as on biopsies of a wet weight of only 1–2 mg obtained during heart catheterisation. However, access to the ultimately, normal, vital myocardial tissue has come from the heart transplantation programs, through which myocardial samples from cardiovascular healthy organ donors have become available. In the present paper we evaluate the various values reported for normal human myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration, its regulation in heart disease and the association with digitalization. Normal myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration level is found to be 700 pmol/g wet weight. No major variations were found between or within the walls of the heart ventricles. During the first few years of life a marked decrease in myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration is followed by a stable level obtained in early adulthood and normally maintained throughout life. In patients with enlarged cardiac x-ray silhouette a significant positive, linear correlation between left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) and Na,K-ATPase concentration was established. A maximum reduction in Na,K-ATPase concentration of 89% was obtained when EF was reduced to 20%. Generally, heart failure associated with heart dilatation, myocardial hypertrophy as well as ischaemic heart disease is associated with reductions in myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration of around 25%. During digoxin treatment of heart failure patients a further reduction in functional myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration of 15% has been found. Thus, the total reduction in functional myocardial Na,K-ATPase concentration in digitalised heart failure patients may well be of the magnitude 40%. In conclusion, it has become possible to quantify human myocardial Na,K-ATPase in health and disease. Revealed reductions are in heart failure of importance for contractile function, generation of arrhythmia and for digoxin treatment. 相似文献

Isoform expression of mammalian red cell Na,K-ATPase was analyzed using messenger RNA isolated from red cell precursor-enriched bone marrow of anemic sheep. Expression of the catalytic alpha subunit was analyzed using rat isoform-specific cDNA probes and expression of the beta 1 subunit, using a sheep beta 1-specific cDNA probe. RNA isolated from sheep kidney and brain were analyzed concurrently. In the red cell, as in the kidney, messenger RNA encoding only one isoform (alpha 1) of the catalytic subunit is detected; neither of the other isoforms (alpha 2 or alpha 3) could be detected. This holds true for bone marrow of sheep of either the low potassium or high potassium phenotype. Relative to the expression of alpha 1, beta subunit-specific message (beta 1) was extremely low in the red cell compared to either kidney (less than 5%) or brain (less than 3%). Using a rat cDNA probe specific for a beta 1-like subunit, beta 2, message was detected in brain but not in either kidney or bone marrow. 相似文献
