Plasma volume expansion was performed in 16 cirrhotic patients with ascites, 8 with avid sodium retention (sodium retainers) and 8 with normal sodium balance (sodium excretors). No natriuretic response was observed in sodium retainers (daily UNa = 7.1 +/- 1.5 mEq before expansion and 20.8 +/- 7.8 after expansion; p = not significant). After expansion plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone showed a fall in both groups, whereas urinary kallikrein excretion decreased significantly in sodium retainers (27.1 +/- 9.7 before expansion and 7.8 +/- 6.4 after expansion; p less than 0.05). Baseline PGE were higher than normal in sodium retainers (997.0 +/- 134.3; p less than 0.02 vs. controls) and increased after expansion. Plasma octopamine was always within normal range. These results suggest that: a) reduction of effective plasma volume is not the main factor involved in sodium retention; b) the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system has only a permissive role; c) prostaglandin system is activated and could have a protective role in maintaining renal function in cirrhotic patients. 相似文献

Despite an increase of circulatory volume and of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) activity, pregnancy is paradoxically accompanied by a decrease in blood pressure. We have reported that the decrease in blood pressure was maintained in pregnant rats despite overactivation of RAAS following reduction in sodium intake. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of the opposite condition, e.g., decreased activation of RAAS during pregnancy in the rat. To do so, 0.9% or 1.8% NaCl in drinking water was given to nonpregnant and pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats for 7 days (last week of gestation). Increased sodium intakes (between 10- and 20-fold) produced reduction of plasma renin activity and aldosterone in both nonpregnant and pregnant rats. Systolic blood pressure was not affected in nonpregnant rats. However, in pregnant rats, 0.9% sodium supplement prevented the decreased blood pressure. Moreover, an increase of systolic blood pressure was obtained in pregnant rats receiving 1.8% NaCl. The 0.9% sodium supplement did not affect plasma and fetal parameters. However, 1.8% NaCl supplement has larger effects during gestation as shown by increased plasma sodium concentration, hematocrit level, negative water balance, proteinuria, and intrauterine growth restriction. With both sodium supplements, decreased AT1 mRNA levels in the kidney and in the placenta were observed. Our results showed that a high-sodium intake prevents the pregnancy-induced decrease of blood pressure in rats. Nonpregnant rats were able to maintain homeostasis but not the pregnant ones in response to sodium load. Furthermore, pregnant rats on a high-sodium intake (1.8% NaCl) showed some physiological responses that resemble manifestations observed in preeclampsia. 相似文献

A 28-year-old woman had hypothalamic disorders (amenorrhea, obesity, psychiatric abnormalities, polydipsia and fever) and chronic glomerulonephritis. She also suffered from general edema associated with cyclical oliguria and polyuria. Her body weight and plasma osmolality increased during the oliguria phase lasting 2 to 8 days and decreased after paroxysmal polyuria accompanied by the natriuresis. These episodes occurred repeatedly, regardless of the treatment with or without diuretics. The release of arginine vasopressin in response to increased plasma osmolality was exaggerated, but changes in plasma volume did not affect arginine vasopressin release. Plasma atrial natriuretic hormone increased in response to a rise in plasma arginine vasopressin and plasma volume during the oliguria phase, thereby resulting in the diuresis and natriuresis. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system was secondarily activated by body fluid depletion and diuretics, and this might play an additive role in general swelling. Plasma gonadal hormones did not change to explain the edema. The mechanism of this cyclical edema remains unknown, but it is likely that hypothalamic dysfunction related to psychiatric abnormalities may exaggerate arginine vasopressin release, and enhanced renal sympathetic activity may cause retention of Na and water, and the increase in atrial natriuretic hormone release responding to the plasma volume expansion may bring about the diuresis and natriuresis. 相似文献

Responses to acute sodium loading depend on the load and on the level of chronic sodium intake. To test the hypothesis that an acute step increase in total body sodium (TBS) elicits a natriuretic response, which is dependent on the chronic level of TBS, we measured the effects of a bolus of NaCl during different low-sodium diets spanning a 25-fold change in sodium intake on elements of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and on natriuresis. To custom-made, low-sodium chow (0.003%), NaCl was added to provide four levels of intake, 0.03-0.75 mmol.kg(-1).day(-1) for 7 days. Acute NaCl administration increased PV (+6.3-8.9%) and plasma sodium concentration (~2%) and decreased plasma protein concentration (-6.4-8.1%). Plasma ANG II and aldosterone concentrations decreased transiently. Potassium excretion increased substantially. Sodium excretion, arterial blood pressure, glomerular filtration rate, urine flow, plasma potassium, and plasma renin activity did not change. The results indicate that sodium excretion is controlled by neurohumoral mechanisms that are quite resistant to acute changes in plasma volume and colloid osmotic pressure and are not down-regulated within 2 h. With previous data, we demonstrate that RAAS variables are log-linearly related to sodium intake over a >250-fold range in sodium intake, defining dietary sodium function lines that are simple measures of the sodium sensitivity of the RAAS. The dietary function line for plasma ANG II concentration increases from theoretical zero at a daily sodium intake of 17 mmol Na/kg (intercept) with a slope of 16 pM increase per decade of decrease in dietary sodium intake. 相似文献

We investigated the relation between involuntary dehydration and the mechanisms affecting Na+ retention in the body, focusing on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Six adult males were dehydrated to 2.3% of their body weight by an exercise-heat regimen, followed by rehydration (180 min) with tap water (H2O-R) or 0.45% NaCl solution (Na-R). We measured plasma renin activity (PRA) and aldosterone levels (PA) before dehydration (control), after dehydration, and at 60, 120, and 180 min of rehydration. During the 3-h rehydration period, subjects, restored 51% of the water lost during H2O-R and 71% during Na-R (P less than 0.05). Plasma volume was reduced by an average of 4.5% after dehydration. After 180 min of rehydration, plasma volume restoration during Na-R was to 174% of that lost, and during H2O-R it was to 78% of that lost. We found significant correlations between the change in plasma volume and PRA (r = -0.70, P less than 0.001) and between PRA and PA (r = 0.71, P less than 0.001). In both recovery conditions, PRA increased significantly after dehydration (P less than 0.05) and decreased almost to the control level by 180 min of rehydration, at which time the plasma volume deficit was restored. The change in PA paralleled that in PRA. The rate of sodium excretion was correlated with PA levels in both groups (r = -0.58, P less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Rats were exposed for ten months to 60 ppm of lead (Pb, as acetate) in drinking water to further assess cardiovascular effects of chronic Pb exposure. At the end of the treatment, mean blood Pb was 3.1+/-0.3 microg/dL in the control rats and 22.8+/-1.2 microg/dL in the Pb-exposed rats (means+/-SE, n=12 in each group); these values were not comparable to those of humans. Pb greatly increased plasma levels of noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (A), but not those of L-DOPA and dopamine; monoaminoxidase activity was augmented by Pb, mostly in the aorta and in the liver; the aorta, liver, heart and kidney showed discrete histopathological alterations in the Pb-exposed rats, in which plasma levels of nitric oxide (NO, determined as L-citrulline) were reduced. Pb was able to induce blood hypertension, resulting from increase of cardiac inotropism and, mostly, total peripheral resistance. These data were discussed also in relation to those obtained in our previous studies carried out in rats exposed to Pb in drinking water (15-60 ppm) for periods ranging from five to eighteen months. Pb appeared to increase both sympathetic nerve activity by central mechanisms (thus increasing plasma NA and A) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent availability of calcium ions (Ca++) for contractile mechanisms in the vascular and cardiac myocells (also through an increased vascular alpha2- and myocardial beta1-adrenoreceptor reactivity). The reduction of plasma NO, contributing to increase vascular resistance and cardiac inotropism, was explained as a result of actions of Pb on enzyme activities concerned with the kallikrein-kinin (KK) and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAA) systems. It was concluded that chronic Pb exposure is able to affect selective neuroendocrine (i.e., catecholamine), au- tacoidal (i.e., KK and RAA) and transductional pathways (i.e., cAMP, NO, Ca++) involved in the cardiovascular function. 相似文献

An effect of enalapril maleate on the activity of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and sympathetic reactivity, erythrocyte prostaglandin and sodium levels as well as blood beta-endorphin was investigated in 28 patients with the essential arterial blood hypertension. It was found that enalapril maleate significantly increased plasma renin activity, decreased plasma norepinephrine and its 24-hour excretion, and decreased erythrocyte beta-endorphin and sodium levels. Blood epinephrine and aldosterone levels and their daily excretion remained unchanged similarly to prostaglandins. The above results suggest that a decrease in sympathetic system activity and intracellular sodium concentration may play a role in the hypotensive action of enalapril maleate related to the inhibition of angiotensin II formation. 相似文献

The withdrawal effect of spironolactone treatment on natriuresis was studied in relation to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in five patients with primary aldosteronism due to adenoma. The patients had been treated with spironolactone for 2-3 months before they were admitted. After admission, blood pressure, body weight, and urinary excretion of sodium were measured daily. Venous samples were obtained twice a week for measurements of plasma levels of ANP, plasma renin activity (PRA), and plasma concentrations of aldosterone (PAC), cortisol, and deoxycorticosterone. The study was performed for 7 days during the treatment with spironolactone and for 18 days after stopping the administration. Plasma volume was determined two times, during the control period and on the 13th day after stopping spironolactone. Urinary sodium excretion decreased initially and returned to the control levels successively. Body weight and plasma volume increased, and blood pressure rose steadily. PRA and the plasma concentrations of cortisol and deoxycorticosterone decreased significantly (P less than 0.05); however, high levels of PAC did not alter significantly. Plasma ANP levels increased significantly (P less than 0.05) from 26 +/- 4 pg/ml during the control period to 195 +/- 47 pg/ml on the 13th day after stopping spironolactone. The data of the urinary sodium excretion showed the escape from sodium-retaining effect of aldosterone, and this escape could be explained by the increase in plasma ANP. Furthermore, ANP might contribute to the decrease in cortisol and deoxycorticosterone in plasma because of the direct inhibitory action of ANP on steroidogenesis. 相似文献

This study examined the hemodynamic consequences of prolonged lower body positive-pressure application and their relationship to changes in the plasma concentration of the major vasoactive hormones. Six men [36 +/- 2 (SE) yr] underwent 30 min of sitting and then 3 h of 70 degrees head-up tilt. An antigravity suit was applied (60 Torr legs, 30 Torr abdomen) during the last 2 h of tilt. In a similar noninflation experiment, the endocrine responses were measured in the suited subjects tilted for 3 h. Two-dimensional echocardiography was used to calculate ventricular volume and cardiac output. Measurements were made 30 min before and 30 and 90 min after inflation. Immediately after inflation, mean arterial pressure increased by 7 +/- 2 Torr and heart rate decreased by 16 +/- 4 beats/min. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume and systolic volume increased significantly (P less than 0.05) at 30 and 90 min of inflation. Cardiac output increased after 30 min of inflation and returned to the preinflation level at 90 min. Plasma norepinephrine and plasma renin activity were maximally suppressed after 15 and 90 min of inflation, respectively (P less than 0.05). No such hormonal changes occurred during control. Plasma sodium, potassium, and osmolality remained unchanged during both experiments. Thus, prolonged application of lower body positive pressure induces 1) a transient increase in cardiac output and 2) a marked and sustained decrease in plasma norepinephrine and plasma renin activity, which reflect an inflation-induced decrease in sympathetic activity. 相似文献

In a group of four young patients with stable chronic renal failure and hyperkalemia sodium restriction induced a remarkable increase in plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone (PA), a decrease in the elevated serum potassium (SK) and a rise in potassium excretion. During high sodium intake the levels of PRA and PA were lower than those found in the healthy control group suggesting that enhanced suppressibility of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) was the main cause of hyperkalemia. During sodium restriction despite a marked increase in PRA and PA levels poor correlations were found between these variables indicating disorganisation within the RAAS and probably a diminished role for renin-angiotensin in the regulation of aldosterone production in three hyperkalemic patients with chronic glomerulonephritis. On the other hand, in the same patients significant correlations were found between fluctuations of SK and PA on constant normal and low sodium diets supporting the concept of an (at least) equal role of potassium and RAAS in the acute regulation of PA. A prominent role for SK was found in an unusual hyperkalemic patient with interstitial nephritis when PRA was suppressed and the elevated SK showed a definite postural rise inducing dramatic increases in PA in the upright posture. Reversion of the postural SK rise masked again the governing role of SK. 相似文献

Nutrient intakes and selected blood and urinary constituents of 16 Navy servicemen were obtained before and during a period of 113 hours of physical activity, sleep deprivation, and psychological stress, to document the dietary adaptation of physically conditioned men to an extended period of hard physical work and other stresses. Food intakes were monitored by 1-day diet records prior to and by direct observation during the period. The factorial method was used to calculate energy expenditure. Carbohydrates provided 45 and 43% of the total energy intake before and during the experiment. Protein intakes and intakes of all the vitamins and minerals studied exceeded the Recommended Dietary Allowances, both before and during the period. Total energy intake averaged 18.7 MJ.d-1 before and 24.4 MJ.d-1 during the experiment. Body weight increased significantly by 2.7 +/- 0.4 kg (mean +/- s.e.) during the experiment (p less than 0.0001). There was a significant correlation (r = 0.74; p less than 0.001) between the change in body weight and urinary sodium from before to after the experiment suggesting that increased dietary sodium may have contributed to the weight gain. A significant increase in plasma volume (11.9 +/- 3.2%; p less than 0.0003) provided further support that the observed weight gain was due to sodium intake rather than a positive energy balance. In conclusion, conditioned men increased food consumption adequately to meet increased energy demands. 相似文献

In an open triple crossover study in 10 patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension the influence was investigated of adding indomethacin 50 mg, naproxen 250 mg, or sulindac 200 mg, each twice daily for four weeks, to diuretic treatment with hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg a day. After two weeks'' treatment with indomethacin a slight increase in blood pressure was observed, whereas both sulindac and naproxen tended to enhance the antihypertensive effect of hydrochlorothiazide. After treatment for four weeks, however, the effects of all three drugs on blood pressure appeared to be blunted. Furthermore, body weight increased significantly during treatment with indomethacin but not during treatment with naproxen or sulindac. No significant changes were found for various biochemical variables, including concentrations of plasma electrolytes and serum creatinine and albumin, plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone concentration, and 24 hour urinary excretion of sodium and potassium, with the exception, however, of an increase in plasma potassium concentration during treatment with indomethacin. These observations suggest that the interaction of indomethacin, naproxen, and sulindac with diuretic treatment in mild to moderate essential hypertension is transient and of minor clinical importance. 相似文献

Effect of NH4Cl acidosis on the function of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in newborn infants.
The present study was undertaken to assess the influence of acute metabolic acidosis on the activity of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and renal function in a group of seven one-week-old neonates with mean birth weight of 2164 g (range: 1300-3750 g) and mean gestational age of 34 weeks (range: 28-40 weeks) undergoing oral NH4Cl load. NH4Cl was given in a dose of 2.8 mEq/kg to evaluate renal acidification. Prior to and following NH4Cl administration blood acid-base parameters, plasma urinary electrolytes, creatinine and aldosterone concentration as well as plasma renin activity, glomerular filtration rate, urine flow rate and net acid secretion were measured. NH4Cl administration significantly depressed blood pH (P < 0.05), total CO2 content (P < 0.01) and base excess (P < 0.01) and resulted in a significant elevation of plasma potassium concentration (P < 0.05). Furthermore, NH4Cl ingestion significantly increased urine flow rate, sodium, chloride and net acid excretion. In response to NH4Cl acidosis no consistent change in plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone concentration could be detected. There was, however, an about 50% increase in urinary aldosterone excretion from the control value of 4.1 +/- 1.2 micrograms/day to 6.8 +/- 2.3 micrograms/day (P < 0.05) after NH4Cl administration. These data suggest that the responsiveness of neonatal adrenals to stimulation by metabolic acidosis is blunted, acidosis therefore, may play a minor role in the neonatal hyperfunction of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. 相似文献

Changes in the blood profile of domestic pigeons (Columba livia) were studied during growth and breeding cycle. Counts of erythrocytes and leucocytes, and values of mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), blood volume, plasma volume (BV), width of erythrocytes, and length, width and volume of erythrocyte nuclei of squabs almost reached adult values by the 4th week of age. During courtship and mating, while the level of plasma glucose increased, those of albumin, potassium, cholesterol, calcium and uric acid decreased. At nest-building, plasma albumin and plasma calcium increased significantly. The initial phase of incubation showed an elevation in plasma calcium and a decline in cholesterol and sodium, whereas mid-phase of incubation indicated a marked rise in cholesterol and uric acid. Terminal phase of incubation had significantly low plasma protein level. During feeding and brooding period, a significant rise in sodium, protein and glucose levels and a fall in calcium were observed. Following egg-laying, there was a significant rise in calcium and a drop in protein, haemoglobin, cholesterol, sodium and MCH values. Concomitant with the phenomenal rate of growth of squabs, their haematological indices neared adult values by the 4th week of age and during breeding activity significant changes in blood values occurred. 相似文献

Age-related increase of vascular resistance determines blood pressure (BP) level in normotensive and hypertensive people. Maintenance of normotension in old age is connected with a decrease of the cardiac output. Increased cardiac output is considered to be an important factor of arterial hypertension in old age. Disturbances in renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and hypophyseal-adrenal systems are observed with advanced age and their degree increases in arterial hypertension. Variability of BP within normal range is closely connected with plasma aldosterone and cortisol concentrations. BP level and increased cardiac output are related to increased plasma ACTH and vasopressin concentrations in hypertensive subjects. 相似文献

Six male non-endurance trained subjects (S) and six marathon runners (M) underwent graded treadmill exercise (T) and isoproterenol stimulation (I; 2 and 4 microgram X min-1). beta-adrenergic receptor density was additionally determined as the amount of 3H-Dihydroalprenolol (DHA) specifically bound on intact polymorphonuclear leucocytes. Heart rate, VO2 uptake, lactate, plasma noradrenaline, and adrenaline were estimated during T. Heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output, as well as lactate, glucose, free fatty acids (FFA), and glycerol levels in the blood were determined during I. M showed the known training-dependent responses during T, such as lower heart rates, lactate levels, and plasma catecholamines at identical work loads, as well as higher VO2 max than S. I-induced cardiac output increase was quite similar in both groups. Stroke volume, however, increased significantly in M and stayed constant in S. Lactate decreased (S), glucose increased significantly (M), glycerol increased similarly in both groups, FFA rise was less marked in S. I-induced stroke volume response (I) may be indicative of a more economic regulation of heart work in M than S. Lactate decrease and less marked FFA increase, as observed in S, may be the result of a somewhat higher cardiac energy demand, dependent on less economic heart work. Higher DHA-binding as observed in M, as well as stroke volume response and glucose increase, may be indicators of a training-dependent rise in sensitivity to catecholamines. The unsolved question is, however, to what extent beta-receptor responses in intact blood cells are significant for receptor behavior in other organs. 相似文献

To investigate whether prolonged water immersion (WI) results in reduction of central blood volume and attenuation of renal fluid and electrolyte excretion, these variables were measured in connection with 12 h of immersion. On separate days, nine healthy males were investigated before, during, and after 12 h of WI to the neck or during appropriate control conditions. Central venous pressure, stroke volume, renal sodium (UNaV) and fluid excretion increased on initiation of WI and thereafter gradually declined but were still elevated compared with control values at the 12th h of WI. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) concentration in plasma initially increased threefold during WI and thereafter declined to preimmersion levels, whereas plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone, and norepinephrine remained constantly suppressed. It is concluded that, compared with the initial increases, central blood volume (central venous pressure and stroke volume) is reduced during prolonged WI and renal fluid and electrolyte excretion is attenuated. UNaV is still increased at the 12th h of WI, whereas renal water excretion returns to control values within 7 h. The WI-induced changes in ANP, plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone, and norepinephrine may all contribute to the initial increase in UNaV. The results suggest, however, that the attenuation of UNaV during the later stages of WI is due to the decrease in ANP release. 相似文献

A high sodium intake increases the capacity of the medullary thick ascending limb (MTAL) to absorb HCO(3)(-). Here, we examined the role of the apical NHE3 and basolateral NHE1 Na(+)/H(+) exchangers in this adaptation. MTALs from rats drinking H(2)O or 0.28 M NaCl for 5-7 days were perfused in vitro. High sodium intake increased HCO(3)(-) absorption rate by 60%. The increased HCO(3)(-) absorptive capacity was mediated by an increase in apical NHE3 activity. Inhibiting basolateral NHE1 with bath amiloride eliminated 60% of the adaptive increase in HCO(3)(-) absorption. Thus the majority of the increase in NHE3 activity was dependent on NHE1. A high sodium intake increased basolateral Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity by 89% in association with an increase in NHE1 expression. High sodium intake increased apical Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity by 30% under conditions in which basolateral Na(+)/H(+) exchange was inhibited but did not change NHE3 abundance. These results suggest that high sodium intake increases HCO(3)(-) absorptive capacity in the MTAL through 1) an adaptive increase in basolateral NHE1 activity that results secondarily in an increase in apical NHE3 activity; and 2) an adaptive increase in NHE3 activity, independent of NHE1 activity. These studies support a role for NHE1 in the long-term regulation of renal tubule function and suggest that the regulatory interaction whereby NHE1 enhances the activity of NHE3 in the MTAL plays a role in the chronic regulation of HCO(3)(-) absorption. The adaptive increases in Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity and HCO(3)(-) absorption in the MTAL may play a role in enabling the kidneys to regulate acid-base balance during changes in sodium and volume balance. 相似文献

Pulmonary function was assessed in supine subjects before, during, and after three separate bed-rest studies of 11 and 12 days duration. Forced vital capacity (FVC) increased during bed rest in each subject. Total lung capacity (TLC) was measured by helium dilution in one bed-rest study and increased in each subject, while residual volume and functional residual capacity of the respiratory system did not change. No change in FVC was found in an ambulatory control group using identical measurement techniques. Maintaining base-line plasma volume during one bed rest by the use of exogenous estrogen did not prevent an increase in FVC, and decreasing plasma volume with diuretics in ambulatory subjects to the same degree as seen in the bed rests did not cause an increase in FVC. We conclude that prolonged bed rest results in a small significant increase in TLC and that this change is not dependent on alterations in plasma volume. 相似文献
