To evaluate the relative influence of changes in plasma renin activity, potassium, ACTH, and sodium concentrations on the secretion of aldosterone, a multifactorial analysis was performed on different sets of investigations in anephric as well as non-nephrectomized patients on regular hemodialysis. During steady-state conditions the relationship between the stimulating effect of each of these factors and combinations between these factors and the resultant plasma aldosterone concentration was analyzed. Linear models could not explain all variations in plasma aldosterone, especially not a variation found within patients. The stimulus-response curve is therefore probably non-linear and at least one or more additional factors may take part in the aldosterone regulation. 相似文献

In humans with diabetes mellitus or in individuals given infusions of insulin or insulin plus glucose, plasma aldosterone levels have been reported to be suppressed. Whether insulin has a direct effect to suppress aldosterone secretion by the adrenal gland has not been established. The effect of insulin on glucose-induced inhibition of angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion was examined. The effect of glucose and insulin plus glucose on angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion was examined in isolated perfused canine adrenal glands. In the absence of insulin, 15.6 mM glucose decreased angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion by 35 +/- 7%, while in the presence of insulin the same glucose concentration had no significant effect on angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion. In contrast, insulin had no effect on NaCl-induced inhibition of angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion. Neither insulin alone nor saline vehicle affected angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion. These results (1) demonstrate that insulin can prevent inhibition of glucose-induced angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion, possibly by preventing a glucose-induced decrease in cell volume, and (2) suggest that the suppressed plasma level of aldosterone found in individuals with diabetes mellitus may in part be due to the direct effects of hyperglycemia on the adrenal gland secretion of aldosterone. 相似文献

A new method for the assessment of endogenous formation of aldosterone in anephric patients is described. (1, 2-3H) aldosterone was administered i.v. to patients 1-2 days before hemodialysis, and then the specific activity (SA) of tetrahydroaldosterone glucosiduronate, the major aldosterone metabolite, was measured in the dialysate using a specific radioimmunoassay. The aldosterone secretion rate was determined from the extent of isotope dilution by endogenous metabolite. Aldosterone secretion rates measured in 10 patients were for the most part low. The secretion rate determined in blood from the aldosterone metabolic clearance rate and plasma aldosterone concentration closely approximate secretion rate values obtained by the isotope dilution method in 3 of 4 patients. In 2 patients in whom ACTH was administered chronically, radio-labeled aldosterone was administered at the start of the study and then the day to day aldosterone secretory response to ACTH was determined from the SA of tetrahydroaldosterone in blood. Aldosterone secretion continuously increased for as long as ACTH was administered. 相似文献

The requirement for calcium in the serotonin-mediated aldosterone secretion was investigated using rat adrenal capsular cells. In the calcium-free medium both basal as well as serotonin-stimulated aldosterone secretion (at concentrations of 10(-7) M and 10(-8) M of serotonin) were significantly impaired. The effects of calcium-channel blockers were then examined. Verapamil (10(-5) M and 10(-6) M markedly inhibited basal and serotonin-evoked aldosterone secretion. In equimolar concentrations nifedipine had much less effect and diltiazem produced no apparent attenuation of either basal or serotonin-stimulated aldosterone secretion. These results indicate the calcium-dependence of serotonin-induced aldosterone secretion. The variable effects of the calcium-channel blockers suggest different or multiple mechanisms of action of these agents. 相似文献

The in vitro secretion of aldosterone and corticosterone by the adrenal glands of fetal (day 30), pregnant and non-pregnant rabbits was examined under basal and stimulated conditions. In general, non-pregnant animals basally secreted less aldosterone than either pregnant or fetal rabbits, whereas basal corticosterone secretion by pregnant animals exceeded that of either fetal or non-pregnant animals. At similar doses of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), fetal and pregnant adrenal glands produced comparatively more aldosterone than non-pregnant animals, while corticosterone secretion was accelerated to a greater degree in fetal rabbits than in the other groups. Angiotensin II had its greatest effect on the aldosterone secretory rates of fetal and non-pregnant animals without affecting corticosterone secretion in any group. Elevated potassium (K+) enhanced the secretory rates of aldosterone and corticosterone in fetal animals, while increasing only aldosterone secretion in non-pregnant rabbits. Serotonin accelerated aldosterone secretion in all animals, whereas it increased corticosterone secretion only in non-pregnant animals. These results suggest that (1) in fetal rabbits, the secretory rates of both aldosterone and corticosterone are regulated primarily by ACTH and to a much lesser extent by angiotensin II and K+, (2) the corticosterone secretory rates of pregnant and non-pregnant rabbits are controlled mainly by ACTH, and (3) aldosterone secretion by non-pregnant animals is regulated primarily by angiotensin II and secondarily by ACTH and K+, while in pregnant animals ACTH may be the primary regulator of aldosterone secretion as it is in the fetus. 相似文献

Role of calcium and cAMP in the action of adrenocorticotropin on aldosterone secretion 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
When the dose-response curve of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH)-induced aldosterone secretion is compared to that of ACTH-induced intracellular cAMP, the ED50 for intracellular cAMP is more than 10 times as high as that for aldosterone production. In contrast, the dose-response curve of forskolin-induced aldosterone secretion correlates well with that for forskolin-induced intracellular cAMP. ACTH, but not forskolin, increases calcium influx into glomerulosa cells without inducing the mobilization of calcium from an intracellular pool. The effect of ACTH on calcium influx is dose-dependent and ED50 is 3.5 X 10(-11) M. In a perifusion system, the effect of 1 nM ACTH on aldosterone secretion is much greater than that of 1 microM forskolin, even though these two stimulators induce identical increases in the intracellular cAMP. Perifusion with combined A23187 (50 nM) and forskolin (1 microM) stimulates aldosterone secretion to a value comparable to that induced by 1 nM ACTH. Likewise, BAY K 8644 (1 nM), which induces a comparable increase in calcium influx, potentiates the effect of 1 microM forskolin. When the intracellular [Ca2+] is fixed at either 100 or 300 nM, forskolin-stimulated intracellular cAMP content is identical, but ACTH-stimulated intracellular cAMP content at 100 nM [Ca2+]i is 60% of that at 300 nM [Ca2+]i. Both the ACTH- and forskolin-induced aldosterone secretion rate is higher at 300 nM than at 100 nM [Ca2+]i. These results indicate that ACTH stimulates calcium influx, that calcium potentiates ACTH-induced but not forskolin-induced cAMP generation, and that Ca2+ and cAMP act as synarchic messengers in ACTH-mediated aldosterone secretion. 相似文献

The effect of localized blockage of endogenous nitric oxide (NO) on basal aldosterone secretion was studied in conscious sheep with autotransplanted adrenal glands. We have shown that infusion of the NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 130 microg/l blood flow) significantly stimulated basal aldosterone secretion rate (ASR). This stimulatory effect was seen up to 4 h of infusion. Beyond this time point, however, the elevated ASR level was not sustained, and it was seen to drop markedly to lower than control values at 5 h. L-NAME had no effect on cortisol secretion rate (FSR) during the first 4 h of infusion, but a significant reduction in FSR was seen by the 8-h time point. Adrenal blood flow was consistently decreased in association with long L-NAME infusion. Additionally, L-NAME was shown to have no effect on aldosterone secretion when infused systemically. We conclude that the relationship between NO and aldosterone secretion is an inhibitory one, in which NO seems to have a negative effect on basal aldosterone secretion. 相似文献

The acute and chronic effects of metoclopramide on aldosterone secretion in the rat model were examined. Metoclopramide 50 micrograms iv in dexamethasone-treated rats did not increase plasma aldosterone concentration. Chronic infusion of metoclopramide (72 micrograms/hr) over 5 days also did not show any increase in the plasma or urinary aldosterone concentration when compared with control rats. Metoclopramide in vitro showed no effect on aldosterone secretion from rat adrenal capsular cells but it inhibited serotonin-mediated aldosterone secretion from the same cells significantly. 相似文献

The mineralocorticoid aldosterone plays an important role in the regulation of plasma electrolyte homeostasis. Exposure of acutely isolated rat adrenal zona glomerulosa cells to elevated K(+) activates voltage-gated calcium channels and initiates a calcium-dependent increase in aldosterone synthesis. We developed a novel 96-well format aldosterone secretion assay to rapidly evaluate the effect of known T- and L-type calcium channel antagonists on K(+)-stimulated aldosterone secretion and better define the role of voltage-gated calcium channels in this process. Reported T-type antagonists, mibefradil and Ni(2+), and selected L-type antagonist dihydropyridines, inhibited K(+)-stimulated aldosterone synthesis. Dihydropyridine-mediated inhibition occurred at concentrations which had no effect on rat alpha1H T-type Ca(2+) currents. In contrast, below 10 microM, the L-type antagonists verapamil and diltiazem showed only minimal inhibitory effects. To examine the selectivity of the calcium channel antagonist-mediated inhibition, we established an aldosterone secretion assay in which 8Br-cAMP stimulates aldosterone secretion independent of extracellular calcium. Mibefradil remained inhibitory in this assay, while the dihydropyridines had only limited effects. Taken together, these data demonstrate a role for the L-type calcium channel in K(+)-stimulated aldosterone secretion. Further, they confirm the need for selective T-type calcium channel antagonists to better address the role of T-type channels in K(+)-stimulated aldosterone secretion. 相似文献

The mechanism of 8-(NN-diethylamino)octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate (TMB-8) action was evaluated in isolated adrenal glomerulosa cells. TMB-8 inhibits both angiotensin II- and K+-stimulated aldosterone secretion in a dose-dependent manner. The ID50 for angiotensin II- and K+-stimulated aldosterone secretion is 46 and 28 microM, respectively. In spite of the fact that 100 microM-TMB-8 inhibits angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion almost completely, TMB-8 (100 microM) does not inhibit angiotensin II-induced 45Ca2+ efflux from prelabelled cells nor does it affect inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-induced calcium release from non-mitochondrial pool(s) in saponin-permeabilized cells. TMB-8 has no inhibitory effect on A23187-induced aldosterone secretion, but 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate-induced aldosterone secretion is completely abolished. TMB-8 effectively inhibits both angiotensin II- and K+-induced increases in calcium influx but has no effect on A23187-induced calcium influx. TMB-8 inhibits the activity of protein kinase C dose-dependently. These results indicate that TMB-8 inhibits aldosterone secretion without inhibiting mobilization of calcium from an intracellular pool. The inhibitory effect of TMB-8 is due largely to an inhibition of plasma membrane calcium influx, but this drug also inhibits the activity of protein kinase C directly. 相似文献

Aldosterone is considered as a new cardiovascular risk factor that plays an important role in metabolic syndrome; however, the underlying mechanism of these effects is not clear. Hypoadiponectinemia and elevated circulating concentration of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) are causally associated with obesity-related insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of aldosterone on the production of adiponectin and PAI-1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Northern and Western blot analyses revealed that aldosterone treatment inhibited adiponectin mRNA expression and secretion and simultaneously enhanced PAI-1 mRNA expression and secretion in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Rosiglitazone did not prevent aldosterone's effect on adiponectin or PAI-1 expression. In contrast, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α produced dramatic synergistic effects on adiponectin and PAI-1 expression when added together with aldosterone. Furthermore, the effects of aldosterone on adiponectin and PAI-1 expression appear to be mediated through glucocorticoid receptor (GR) but not mineralocorticoid receptor (MR). These results suggest that the effects of aldosterone on adiponectin and PAI-1 production are one of the underlying mechanisms linking it to insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

The role of calcium in the regulation of aldosterone secretion has been recently clarified. Angiotensin II and potassium stimulate aldosterone secretion through a calcium-entry dependent mechanism, while ACTH action is both calcium and cyclic AMP dependent. To establish whether also the so-called aldosterone dopaminergic regulatory system is calcium-dependent we have studied, in vitro and in vivo, the effect of verapamil, a calcium entry blocker agent, on the aldosterone-stimulating properties of the antidopaminergic drug, metoclopramide. In the rat adrenal cells perfusion system, verapamil blocked both angiotensin II and metoclopramide-stimulated aldosterone. This effect on metoclopramide action seems to be present also in vivo in normal subjects: in fact aldosterone response was slightly but significantly reduced after pretreatment with verapamil. In conclusion the results suggest that also the dopaminergic system could regulate aldosterone secretion through calcium-mediated mechanisms. 相似文献

Inhibitors of aldosterone secretion 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Aldosterone secretion may be inhibited by potassium depletion, inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system, dopamine and atrial natriuretic factor. The latter appears to be an important physiological regulator of aldosterone secretion. ANF inhibits basal, ACTH, Angiotensin II and potassium-stimulated aldosterone production in vitro by a direct action on the adrenal gland. In vivo data also support a direct inhibitions of aldosterone. The stimulation of aldosterone secretion by infusions of Angiotensin II and potassium is inhibited by simultaneous infusions of ANF. Infusions of ANF lower the basal aldosterone secretion in man. The mechanism by which ANF inhibits aldosterone is not known. No unifying first step has been identified to explain ANF's ability to inhibit all stimuli. In vivo, part of the lowering of aldosterone levels may be due to inhibition of renin secretion. This effect of ANF upon renin is inconsistent and appears to depend upon the experimental conditions. 相似文献

Diacylglycerol provides arachidonic acid for lipoxygenase products that mediate angiotensin II-induced aldosterone synthesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The lipoxygenase products of arachidonic acid metabolism have been shown to be important mediators of stimulus secretion coupling in various endocrine tissues. We have recently shown that the 12-lipoxygenase product, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid plays a key role as a new specific mediator of angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion in the adrenal. In view of the several pathways by which cellular arachidonate can be generated and the important role of diacylglycerol in angiotensin II-responses, we studied the role of diacylglycerol as the source of arachidonic acid for 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic formation. Treatment of normal human adrenal glomerulosa cells with the selective diacylglycerol-lipase inhibitor, RHC 80267, resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of angiotensin II-induced aldosterone as well as 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic formation. These results suggest that AA derived from diacylglycerol is the precursor of 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic involved in angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion. These results reveal a new second messenger role for diacylglycerol in addition to activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Diazepam inhibits potassium-induced aldosterone secretion in adrenal glomerulosa cell 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In an attempt to elucidate a possible role of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor in adrenal glomerulosa cell, effect of diazepam on potassium-induced aldosterone secretion was studied using isolated bovine adrenal glomerulosa cell. Diazepam inhibited aldosterone secretion stimulated by 8mM potassium in a dose dependent manner. The ID50 was approximately 14 nM. Although diazepam inhibited potassium action effectively, forskolin-induced aldosterone secretion was not affected by diazepam. These results indicate that peripheral benzodiazepine receptor may have an active role in regulating aldosterone secretion. The voltage dependent calcium channel may be a possible site of benzodiazepine action in this tissue. 相似文献

The present study was designed to assess the effect of fasting on aldosterone secretion in ovariectomized (Ovx) rats. Ovx rats were divided into fed (allowed access to food ad libitum) and fasted (deprived of food for 24 hours) groups. The trunk blood of fed and fasted rats was collected after decapitation. In the in vitro study, adrenal zona glomerulosa (ZG) cells from fed or fasted rats were incubated with angiotensin II (Ang II, 10(-6) M), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH, 10(-9) M), or forskolin (an activator of adenylyl cyclase, 10(-6) M) at 37 degrees C for 30 min. The levels of aldosterone in medium and plasma extracts were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results showed that the levels of plasma aldosterone in fasted rats were lower than those in fed rats. There were no significant differences in basal and Ang II-stimulated aldosterone secretion between fed and fasted groups. The increment of aldosterone induced by ACTH in fasted group was significantly less than that in fed group. Administration of forskolin led to a significant increase in aldosterone secretion in both fed and fasted groups. Fasted group had a decreased aldosterone secretion in response to forskolin as compared with fed group. In summary, these results suggest that fasting decreases aldosterone secretion in Ovx rats through a mechanism in part involving a reduction of aldosterone production in response to ACTH, a decreased activity of adenylyl cyclase, and/or an inhibition of post-cAMP pathway in ZG cells. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) inhibits the secretion of aldosterone by isolated adrenal glomerulosa cells stimulated by angiotensin II, ACTH and potassium in vitro and by angiotensin II in conscious unrestrained rats. In this study we investigated further the effects of synthetic ANP on the dose-response curve of aldosterone secretion stimulated by ACTH in vitro. ANP displaced the dose-response curve of aldosterone to ACTH to the right with a significant change in EC50. A similar effect of ANP was reproduced in vivo in conscious unrestrained rats. There was no significant effect of ANP on the corticosterone response to ACTH in vivo. ANP is a potent regulator of aldosterone secretion which may modulate the effects of ACTH on the adrenal in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

The object of this review is to describe the role of the renin–angiotensin system in control of aldosterone secretion. The review focuses on the roles of the circulating renin–angiotensin (RAS) system, the activity of which is determined predominantly by control of renin secretion from the kidney and on the role of the intra-adrenal RAS. Angiotensin can bind to two types of G protein coupled receptors, the AT1 and AT2 receptors. Both receptors are found on cells from the zona glomerulosa, the site of aldosterone synthesis. Angiotensin II acting via the AT1 receptor stimulates the synthesis of aldosterone at early and late steps in the pathway. Its effect on aldosterone is influenced by a number of other factors such as plasma potassium levels, sodium status, other peptides such as ANP and adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N-terminal peptide. All components of the RAS are found in the adrenal gland. The activity of this intra-adrenal RAS is unmasked and amplified in nephrectomised animals. Aldosterone controls sodium transport across epithelial cells, but recently novel effects on the heart have been described. 相似文献
