It has been demonstrated in the conscious dog that portal glucose infusion creates a signal that increases net hepatic glucose uptake and hepatic glycogen deposition. Experiments leading to an understanding of the mechanism by which this change occurs will be facilitated if this finding can be reproduced in the rat. Rats weighing 275-300 g were implanted with four indwelling catheters (one in the portal vein, one in the left carotid artery, and two in the right jugular vein) that were externalized between the scapulae. The rats were studied in a conscious, unrestrained condition 7 days after surgery, following a 24-h fast. Each experiment consisted of a 30- to 60-min equilibration, a 30-min baseline, and a 120-min test period. In the test period, a pancreatic clamp was performed by using somatostatin, insulin, and glucagon. Glucose was given simultaneously either through the jugular vein to clamp the arterial blood level at 220 mg/dl (Pe low group) or at 250 mg/dl (Pe high group), or via the hepatic portal vein (Po group; 6 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) and the jugular vein to clamp the arterial blood glucose level to 220 mg/dl. In the test period, the arterial plasma glucagon and insulin levels were not significantly different in the three groups (36 +/- 2, 33 +/- 2, and 30 +/- 2 pg/ml and 1.34 +/- 0.08, 1. 37 +/- 0.18, and 1.66 +/- 0.11 ng/ml in Po, Pe low, and Pe high groups, respectively). The arterial blood glucose levels during the test period were 224 +/- 4 mg/dl for Po, 220 +/- 3 for Pe low, and 255 +/- 2 for Pe high group. The liver glycogen content (micromol glucose/g liver) in the two Pe groups was not statistically different (51 +/- 7 and 65 +/- 8, respectively), whereas the glycogen level in the Po group was significantly greater (93 +/- 9, P < 0.05). Because portal glucose delivery also augments hepatic glycogen deposition in the rat, as it does in the dogs, mechanistic studies relating to its function can now be undertaken in this species.  相似文献

This is a study on the effect of cooling and heating amniotic fluid on blood flow to fetal tissues and organs. In 8 unanaesthetized, chronically-catheterised fetal sheep (129-137 days gestation) cold or warm water was passed through tubing encircling the fetus in utero and blood flow was measured using the radionuclide-labelled 15 mu spheres. Following cooling for 30 min, amniotic fluid temperature fell 9.6 degrees C to 29.9 +/- 2.1 degrees C (SEM) fetal arterial temperature fell 2.37 degrees C to 37.30 +/- 0.36, and maternal arterial temperature fell 0.53 degrees C to 38.58 +/- 0.16. Blood flow through the fetal skin fell 60% (P less than 0.01) to 13.6 ml/min per 100 g tissue. Blood flow to the brown fat increased 186% (P less than 0.05) to 99.6 ml/min per 100 g. Following warming for 20 min, fetal temperature rose to 40.43 +/- 0.19 degrees C, and skin blood flow did not change significantly relative to initial control period but rose 200% above that during cooling (P less than 0.01). During both cooling and heating, blood flow to the adrenals rose significantly (P less than 0.05) whereas flow to the carcass, brain, kidneys, and placenta was not altered detectably. Continuous sampling of blood from the inferior vena cava during microsphere injection failed to detect any evidence of arterio-venous shunting through the skin at any temperature studied. Overall, the blood flow responses are consistent with a thermoregulatory role for the skin and brown fat in the near-term fetal sheep.  相似文献

We have examined the placental vascular responses to forskolin in 8 near-term sheep. The drug was administered for 5 min at 1 ml/min of 10(-3) M forskolin via a retrograde uterine arterial catheter. Blood flows were measured with radioactive microspheres. Forskolin increased the nonplacental uterine blood flow from 0.318 +/- 0.031 (SEM) to 0.738 +/- 0.071 ml/min per g of tissue, P less than 0.001. The nonplacental uterine vascular resistance decreased from 308 +/- 26 to 132 +/- 12 mmHg/ml/min per g, P less than 0.001. Forskolin increased the placental blood flow from 1.8 +/- 0.18 to 2.08 +/- 0.16 ml/min per g of tissue, P less than 0.05. The placental vascular resistance decreased from 54.7 +/- 5.1 to 45.9 +/- 3.7 mmHg/ml/min per g, P less than 0.03. In the same animals we then infused angiotensin II at 5 micrograms/min via the jugular vein to induce placental vasoconstriction. In this series, the forskolin increased the nonplacental uterine blood flow from 0.141 +/- 0.016 to 0.485 +/- 0.079 ml/min per g of tissue, P less than 0.001, and the uterine vascular resistance decreased from 968 +/- 104 to 283 +/- 36 mmHg/ml/min per g, P less than 0.001. The placental blood flow increased from 2.08 +/- 0.012 to 2.69 +/- 0.17 ml/min per g of tissue, P less than 0.01 and placental vascular resistance decreased from 61.9 +/- 4.4 to 46.0 +/- 3.7 mmHg/ml/min per g, P less than 0.001.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

We assessed basal glucose metabolism in 16 female nonpregnant (NP) and 16 late-pregnant (P) conscious, 18-h-fasted dogs that had catheters inserted into the hepatic and portal veins and femoral artery approximately 17 days before the experiment. Pregnancy resulted in lower arterial plasma insulin (11 +/- 1 and 4 +/- 1 microU/ml in NP and P, respectively, P < 0.05), but plasma glucose (5.9 +/- 0.1 and 5.6 +/- 0.1 mg/dl in NP and P, respectively) and glucagon (39 +/- 3 and 36 +/- 2 pg/ml in NP and P, respectively) were not different. Net hepatic glucose output was greater in pregnancy (42.1 +/- 3.1 and 56.7 +/- 4.0 micromol. 100 g liver(-1).min(-1) in NP and P, respectively, P < 0.05). Total net hepatic gluconeogenic substrate uptake (lactate, alanine, glycerol, and amino acids), a close estimate of the gluconeogenic rate, was not different between the groups (20.6 +/- 2.8 and 21.2 +/- 1.8 micromol. 100 g liver(-1). min(-1) in NP and P, respectively), indicating that the increment in net hepatic glucose output resulted from an increase in the contribution of glycogenolytically derived glucose. However, total glycogenolysis was not altered in pregnancy. Ketogenesis was enhanced nearly threefold by pregnancy (6.9 +/- 1.2 and 18.2 +/- 3.4 micromol. 100 g liver(-1).min(-1) in NP and P, respectively), despite equivalent net hepatic nonesterified fatty acid uptake. Thus late pregnancy in the dog is not accompanied by changes in the absolute rates of gluconeogenesis or glycogenolysis. Rather, repartitioning of the glucose released from glycogen is responsible for the increase in hepatic glucose production.  相似文献

Lactate is produced by the sheep placenta and is an important metabolic substrate for fetal sheep. However, lactate uptake and release by the fetal liver have not been assessed directly. We measured lactate flux across the liver in 16 fetal sheep at 129 (120-138) days gestation that had catheters chronically maintained in the fetal descending aorta, inferior vena cava, right or left hepatic vein, and umbilical vein. Lactate and hemoglobin concentrations and oxygen saturation were measured in blood drawn from all vessels. Umbilical venous, portal venous, and hepatic blood flow were measured by injecting radionuclide-labeled microspheres into the umbilical vein while obtaining a reference sample from the descending aorta. We found net hepatic uptake of lactate (5.0 +/- 4.4 mg/min per 100 g liver). A large quantity of lactate was delivered to the liver (94.2 +/- 78.1 mg/min per 100 g), so that the hepatic extraction of lactate was only 7.7 +/- 6.5%. Hepatic oxygen consumption was 3.18 +/- 3.3 ml/min per 100 g, and the hepatic lactate/oxygen quotient was 2.07 +/- 1.54. There was no significant correlation between hepatic lactate uptake and hepatic lactate or glucose delivery, hepatic oxygen consumption, hepatic blood flow, hepatic glucose flux, total body oxygen consumption, arterial pH, oxygen content, or oxygen saturation. There was, however, a significant correlation between hepatic lactate uptake and umbilical lactate uptake (r = 0.74, P less than 0.005) such that net hepatic lactate uptake was nearly equivalent to that produced across the umbilical-placental circulation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The role of prostanoids in regulation of the renal circulation during hypercapnia was examined in unanesthetized rabbits. Renal blood flow (RBF) was determined with 15 micron radioactive microspheres during normocapnia (PaCO2 congruent to 30 mmHg) and hypercapnia (PaCO2 congruent to 60 mmHg), before and after intravenous administration of indomethacin (10 mg/kg) or vehicle (n = 6 for each group). Arterial blood pressure was not different among the 4 conditions in each group. RBF was 438 +/- 61 and 326 +/- 69 (P less than 0.05) ml/min per 100 g during normocapnia and hypercapnia, respectively, before indomethacin, and following administration of indomethacin, RBF was 426 +/- 59 ml/min per 100 g during normocapnia and 295 +/- 60 ml/min per 100 g during hypercapnia (P less than 0.05). In the vehicle group, RBF was 409 +/- 74 and 226 +/- 45 (P less than 0.05) ml/min per 100 g during normocapnia and hypercapnia, respectively, before vehicle; and following administration of vehicle, RBF was 371 +/- 46 ml/min per 100 g during normocapnia and 219 +/- 50 (P less than 0.05) ml/min per 100 g during hypercapnia. RBF during normocapnia was not affected by administration of indomethacin or vehicle. The successive responses to hypercapnia were not different within the indomethacin and vehicle groups, and the second responses to hypercapnia were not different between the two groups. These findings suggest that prostanoids do not contribute significantly to regulation of the renal circulation during normocapnia and hypercapnia in unanesthetized rabbits.  相似文献

Hepatic portal venous infusion of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors causes muscle insulin resistance, but the effects on hepatic glucose disposition are unknown. Conscious dogs underwent a hyperinsulinemic (4-fold basal) hyperglycemic (hepatic glucose load 2-fold basal) clamp, with assessment of liver metabolism by arteriovenous difference methods. After 90 min (P1), dogs were divided into two groups: control (receiving intraportal saline infusion; n = 8) and LN [receiving N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a nonspecific NOS inhibitor; n = 11] intraportally at 0.3 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1) for 90 min (P2). During the final 60 min of study (P3), L-NAME was discontinued, and five LN dogs received the NO donor SIN-1 intraportally at 6 mug x kg(-1) x min(-1) while six received saline (LN/SIN-1 and LN/SAL, respectively). Net hepatic fractional glucose extraction (NHFE) in control dogs was 0.034 +/- 0.016, 0.039 +/- 0.015, and 0.056 +/- 0.019 during P1, P2, and P3, respectively. NHFE in LN was 0.045 +/- 0.009 and 0.111 +/- 0.007 during P1 and P2, respectively (P < 0.05 vs. control during P2), and 0.087 +/- 0.009 and 0.122 +/- 0.016 (P < 0.05) during P3 in LN/SIN-1 and LN/SAL, respectively. During P2, arterial glucose was 204 +/- 5 vs. 138 +/- 11 mg/dl (P < 0.05) in LN vs. control to compensate for L-NAME's effect on blood flow. Therefore, another group (LNlow; n = 4) was studied in the same manner as LN/SAL, except that arterial glucose was clamped at the same concentrations as in control. NHFE in LNlow was 0.052 +/- 0.008, 0.093 +/- 0.023, and 0.122 +/- 0.021 during P1, P2, and P3, respectively (P < 0.05 vs. control during P2 and P3), with no significant difference in glucose infusion rates. Thus, NOS inhibition enhanced NHFE, an effect partially reversed by SIN-1.  相似文献

1. Thermal Pulse Decay (TPD) methodology was used to monitor hepatic tissue blood flow (hepatic perfusion) in anesthetized birds prior to and during hemorrhagic hypotension. 2. Hemorrhage was accomplished by periodic removal of blood through a carotid cannula. Reducing the estimated blood volume (BV) from 100 to less than 50% decreased hepatic perfusion from 4.36 +/- 0.7 to 1.88 +/- 0.7 ml/min/g. 3. Changes in hepatic perfusion during the experiment were related to mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) by the following linear regression equation: hepatic perfusion = -1.79 +/- 0.0807x (r2 = 0.57).  相似文献

It has been reported that both sodium and chloride ions must be ingested to induce the elevated blood pressure of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt-sensitive hypertension. This study was designed to determine the separate roles of the sodium and chloride ions in the altered hemodynamics underlying the high blood pressure. DOCA pellets (75 mg) were implanted in uninephrectomized rats and the animals were then fed one of four diets: (i) high sodium chloride, (ii) high sodium-low chloride, (iii) high chloride-low sodium, or (iv) low sodium chloride. Blood pressures were measured weekly by tail-cuff plethysmography for 5 weeks and the animals were then subjected to a terminal experiment to measure cardiac output by thermodilution technique, renal blood flow by electromagnetic flow probe, and direct arterial pressure. Blood pressure in the DOCA-high NaCl group was significantly greater (P less than 0.05) compared with that of the DOCA-low NaCl group (160 +/- 3 mm Hg vs 124 +/- 2 mm Hg, respectively) at 5 weeks after treatment; all other groups were not significantly different from the DOCA-low NaCl group. Cardiac output was significantly greater in DOCA-treated rats consuming diets high in sodium (44 +/- 2 ml/min/100 g) or sodium chloride (40 +/- 2 ml/min/100 g) compared with animals consuming low sodium chloride (31 +/- 2 ml/min/100 g; P less than 0.01 for each comparison). Direct intraarterial blood pressure and renal blood flow were used to calculate renal vascular resistance. Renal vascular resistance was increased in those DOCA-treated rats consuming diets high in chloride (42 +/- 3 mm Hg/ml/min/100 g) and high sodium chloride (54 +/- 3 mm Hg/ml/min/100 g) compared with rats consuming low sodium chloride (30 +/- 3 mm Hg/ml/min/100 g; P less than 0.01 for each). It appears that elevations in cardiac output are associated with increased dietary sodium and act in synergy with the elevations in renal vascular resistance associated with increased dietary chloride. Increases in both cardiac output and renal vascular resistance are involved in the maintenance of elevated blood pressure in the DOCA-salt-sensitive model of hypertension.  相似文献

Respiratory muscle blood flow and organ blood flow during endotoxic shock were studied in spontaneously breathing dogs (SB, n = 6) and mechanically ventilated dogs (MV, n = 5) with radiolabeled microspheres. Shock was produced by a 5-min intravenous injection of Escherichia coli endotoxin (0.55:B5, Difco, 10 mg/kg) suspended in saline. Mean arterial blood pressure and cardiac output in the SB group dropped to 59 and 45% of control values, respectively. There was a similar reduction in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output in the MV group. Total respiratory muscle blood flow in the SB group increased significantly from the control value of 51 +/- 4 ml/min (mean +/- SE) to 101 +/- 22 ml/min at 60 min of shock. In the MV group, respiratory muscle perfusion fell from control values of 43 +/- 12 ml/min to 25 +/- 3 ml/min at 60 min of shock. In the SB group, 8.8% of the cardiac output was received by the respiratory muscle during shock in comparison with 1.9% in the MV group. In both groups of dogs, blood flow to most organs was compromised during shock; however, blood flow to the brain, gut, and skeletal muscles was higher in the MV group than in the SB group. Thus by mechanical ventilation a fraction of the cardiac output used by the working respiratory muscles can be made available for perfusion of other organs during endotoxic shock.  相似文献

The effects of alpha-rat calcitonin gene-related peptide (alpha-rCGRP) on systemic and renal hemodynamics and on renal electrolyte excretion were examined in normal anesthetized rats. In one group of rats (n = 7), infusions of alpha-rCGRP at doses of 10, 50, 100, and 500 ng/kg/min for 15 min each produced dose-related and significant decreases in mean arterial pressure from a control of 130 +/- 3 mm Hg to a maximal depressor response of 91 +/- 2 mm Hg. During the first three doses of alpha-rCGRP, renal blood flow progressively and significantly increased from a control of 5.0 +/- 0.3 ml/min to a peak level of 6.3 +/- 0.3 ml/min achieved during the 100 ng/kg/min infusion. With the highest infusion rate of 500 ng/kg/min, renal blood flow fell below the control level to 4.5 +/- 0.2 ml/min (P less than 0.05). The responses in renal blood flow and mean arterial pressure were associated with reductions in renal vascular resistance. After cessation of alpha-rCGRP infusions, arterial pressure, renal blood flow, and renal vascular resistance gradually returned toward the baseline values. In another group of rats (n = 9), infusion of alpha-rCGRP for 30 min at 100 ng/kg/min produced a significant reduction in urinary sodium excretion from 0.28 +/- 0.06 to 0.14 +/- 0.5 muEq/min (P less than 0.05). Urine flow and urinary potassium excretion also appeared to decrease, but the changes were not significantly different (P greater than 0.05) from their respective baselines. These results demonstrate that alpha-rCGRP is a potent and reversible hypotensive and renal vasodilatory agent in the anesthetized rat. The data also suggest that alpha-rCGRP may have significant effects on the excretory function of the kidney.  相似文献

Cerebral blood flow in intoxicated newborn piglets   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Ethanol exposure in the neonatal period causes impaired brain growth and altered adult behaviour in rats. One possible mechanism may be altered cerebral perfusion caused by ethanol intoxication. We assessed the effects of ethanol on cerebral blood flow and its autoregulation in 2-day-old piglets. Piglets received ethanol (1.4 g/kg) or an equivalent volume of dextrose 5% in water over 30 min. One hour later, cerebral blood flow was measured using the microsphere technique at resting, elevated, and decreased mean arterial blood pressure. Ethanol-treated piglets had total cerebral blood flows of 88 +/- 14, 82 +/- 10, and 82 +/- 12 mL X 100 g-1 X min-1 (mean +/- SE) at mean arterial blood pressures of 12.4 +/- 1.1, 15.7 +/- 1.5, and 8.2 +/- 0.9 kPa. Corresponding values in control piglets were 82 +/- 14, 78 +/- 4, and 82 +/- 7 mL X 100 g-1 X min-1 at mean arterial blood pressures of 10.5 +/- 1.5, 14.0 +/- 1.2, and 7.7 +/- 1.1 kPa. At resting arterial blood pressures, regional blood flows to basal ganglia, cortex, brainstem, and cerebellum in ethanol-treated piglets were 123 +/- 21, 90 +/- 16, 94 +/- 17, and 77 +/- 12 mL X 100 g-1 X min-1, respectively. Corresponding regional blood flows for the control piglets were 118 +/- 16, 85 +/- 15, 76 +/- 16, and 76 +/- 16 mL X 100 g-1 X min-1. Blood flow to basal ganglia was greater than to other brain regions in both ethanol-treated and control piglets (P less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

To determine whether renal blood flow is reduced or redistributed during exercise, we measured total renal flow (TRF) and intrarenal flow distribution (IRFD) in nine dogs. They ran on a motor-driven treadmill at 3-8 mph at grades of 8-15% for an average of 35 min. We measured aortic pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, and cardiac output (CO) via chronically implanted catheters and an electromagnetic flow probe. We injected 15-mum radiolabeled microspheres (85Sr, 141Ce, and 51Cr) via a left atrial catheter during resting control, steady state (SS) and exhaustive (EE) exercise; measured their distribution by gamma spectrometry; and determined TRF as % CO and as ml/100 g per min. We determined IRFD for the outer and inner cortex and the outer medulla. TRF as %CO dropped (P less than 0.05) during both levels of exercise: from 10.2 +/- 0.7% to 3.9 +/- 0.4% (SS) and 3.4 +/- 0.6% (EE). TRF in ml/100 g per min did not change significantly from control (228 +/- 30 ml/100 g per min). IRFD was unchanged with exercise, remaining at about 80, 20, and 3% of TRF for the outer and inner cortex and outer medulla, respectively. We conclude that blood flow is not diverted from the kidneys during severe exercise in the dog.  相似文献

Previous studies showed two deviations from the predictions of the undistributed parallel tube model for hepatic uptake of substrates: a small deviation at high flows and a large deviation at low flows. We have examined whether these deviations could be described by a single correction factor. In cats anesthetized with pentobarbital, a hepatic venous long-circuit technique with an extracorporeal reservoir was used to vary portal flow and hepatic venous pressure, and allow repeated sampling of arterial, portal, and hepatic venous blood without depletion of the cat's blood volume. Hepatic uptake of ethanol was measured over a wide range of blood flows and when intrahepatic pressure was increased at low flows. This uptake could be described by the parallel tube model with a correction for hepatic blood flow: Uptake = Vmax max.(1 - e-kF).c/(Km + c). In 22 cats, Vmax max = 90 +/- 5 mumols/(min.100 g liver), k = 0.021 +/- 0.0015 when flow (F) was in millilitres per minute per 100 g liver, and Km = 150 +/- 20 microM when c is the log mean sinusoidal concentration. (1 - e-kF) represents the proportion of sinusoids perfused and metabolically active. A dynamic interpretation of this proportion is related to intermittency (derecruitment) of sinusoidal flow. Half the sinusoids were perfused at a flow of 33 mL/(min.100 g liver) and the liver was essentially completely perfused (greater than 95%) at the normal flow of 150 mL/(min.100 g liver). Derecruitment was not changed by raising hepatic venous pressure, and it was not related to hepatic venous resistance.  相似文献

It has been proposed that an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for O2 may be beneficial in severe hypoxemia. To test this hypothesis, we compared the response to progressive hypoxemia in dogs with normal hemoglobin affinity (P50 = 32.4 +/- 0.7 Torr) to dogs with a left shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (P50 = 21.9 +/- 0.5 Torr) induced by chronic oral administration of sodium cyanate. Animals were anesthetized, paralyzed, and mechanically ventilated. The inspired O2 fraction was progressively lowered by increasing the inspired fraction of N2. The lowest level of O2 transport required to maintain base-line O2 consumption (VO2) was 9.3 +/- 0.8 ml.min-1.kg-1 for control and 16.5 +/- 1.1 ml.min-1.kg-1 for the sodium cyanate-treated dogs (P less than 0.01). Other measured parameters at this level of O2 transport were, for experimental vs. control: arterial PO2 19.3 +/- 2.4 (SE) Torr vs. 21.8 +/- 1.6 Torr (NS); arterial O2 content 10.0 +/- 1.2 ml/dl vs. 4.9 +/- 0.4 ml/dl (P less than 0.01); mixed venous PO2 14.0 +/- 1.5 Torr vs. 13.8 +/- 1.0 Torr (NS); mixed venous O2 content 6.8 +/- 1.0 ml/dl vs. 2.3 +/- 0.2 ml/dl (P less than 0.01); and O2 extraction ratio 32.7 +/- 2.8% vs. 51.2 +/- 3.8% (P less than 0.01). We conclude that chronic administration of sodium cyanate appears to be detrimental to O2 transport, since the experimental dogs were unable to increase their O2 extraction ratios to the same level as control, thus requiring a higher level of O2 transport to maintain their base-line VO2 values.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the role of direct hepatic adrenergic stimulation in the control of endogenous glucose production (R(a)) during moderate exercise in poorly controlled alloxan-diabetic dogs. Chronically catheterized and instrumented (flow probes on hepatic artery and portal vein) dogs were made diabetic by administration of alloxan. Each study consisted of a 120-min equilibration, 30-min basal, 150-min moderate exercise, 30-min recovery, and 30-min blockade test period. Either vehicle (control; n = 6) or alpha (phentolamine)- and beta (propranolol)-adrenergic blockers (HAB; n = 6) were infused in the portal vein. In both groups, epinephrine (Epi) and norepinephrine (NE) were infused in the portal vein during the blockade test period to create suprapharmacological levels at the liver. Isotopic ([3-(3)H]glucose, [U-(14)C]alanine) and arteriovenous difference methods were used to assess hepatic function. Arterial plasma glucose was similar in controls (345 +/- 24 mg/dl) and HAB (336 +/- 23 mg/dl) and was unchanged by exercise. Basal arterial insulin was 5 +/- 1 mU/ml in controls and 4 +/- 1 mU/ml in HAB and fell by approximately 50% during exercise in both groups. Basal arterial glucagon was similar in controls (56 +/- 10 pg/ml) and HAB (55 +/- 7 pg/ml) and rose similarly, by approximately 1.4-fold, with exercise in both groups. Despite greater arterial Epi and NE levels in HAB compared with controls during the basal and exercise periods, exercise-induced increases in catecholamines from basal were similar in both groups. Gluconeogenic conversion from alanine and lactate and the intrahepatic efficiency of this process were increased by twofold during exercise in both groups. R(a) rose similarly by 2.9 +/- 0.7 and 2.7 +/- 1.0 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) at time = 150 min during exercise in controls and HAB. During the blockade test period, arterial plasma glucose and R(a) rose to 454 +/- 43 mg/dl and 11.3 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) in controls, respectively, but were essentially unchanged in HAB. The attenuated response to the blockade test in HAB substantiates the effectiveness of the hepatic adrenergic blockade. In conclusion, these results demonstrate that direct hepatic adrenergic stimulation does not play a role in the stimulation of R(a) during exercise in poorly controlled diabetes.  相似文献

Role of tracheal and bronchial circulation in respiratory heat exchange   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Due to their anatomic configuration, the vessels supplying the central airways may be ideally suited for regulation of respiratory heat loss. We have measured blood flow to the trachea, bronchi, and lung parenchyma in 10 anesthetized supine open-chest dogs. They were hyperventilated (frequency, 40; tidal volume 30-35 ml/kg) for 30 min or 1) warm humidified air, 2) cold (-20 degrees C dry air, and 3) warm humidified air. End-tidal CO2 was kept constant by adding CO2 to the inspired ventilator line. Five minutes before the end of each period of hyperventilation, measurements of vascular pressures (pulmonary arterial, left atrial, and systemic), cardiac output (CO), arterial blood gases, and inspired, expired, and tracheal gas temperatures were made. Then, using a modification of the reference flow technique, 113Sn-, 153Gd-, and 103Ru-labeled microspheres were injected into the left atrium to make separate measurements of airway blood flow at each intervention. After the last measurements had been made, the dogs were killed and the lungs, including the trachea, were excised. Blood flow to the trachea, bronchi, and lung parenchyma was calculated. Results showed that there was no change in parenchymal blood flow, but there was an increase in tracheal and bronchial blood flow in all dogs (P less than 0.01) from 4.48 +/- 0.69 ml/min (0.22 +/- 0.01% CO) during warm air hyperventilation to 7.06 +/- 0.97 ml/min (0.37 +/- 0.05% CO) during cold air hyperventilation.  相似文献

The effect of indomethacin, an inhibitor of prostaglandin (PG) synthesis, was studied on the renal circulation, Na+ and water excretion in anaesthesized dogs during alpha-receptor inhibition. Indomethacin decreased cortical blood flow (CBFcontr, 454 +/- 142; CBFindo, 332 +/- 51 ml per min per 100 g; p less than 0.02) as well as medullary blood flow (OMBFcontr, 339 +/- 95; OMBFindo, 183 +/- 46 ml per min per 100 g; p less than 0.001), salt and water excretion, further it caused a shift in the intrarenal blood flow distribution toward the cortex. Alpha-blockade prevented the indomethacin-induced vasoconstriction in the cortex (CBF alpha inhibition + indo, 455 +/- 76 ml per min per 100 g) but not in the medullar (OMBF alpha inhibition + indo, 259 +/- 102 ml per min per 100 g, p less than 0.05). Alpha-blockade failed to prevent the indomethacin-induced antidiuresis, antinatriuresis and the intrarenal blood flow redistribution. GFR remained unaffected in all three series of studies. Our experimental findings are in line with the presumption that alpha-receptors are involved in the renal circulatory changes caused by indomethacin, probably as a result of an enhanced NE release during the inhibition of PG production. A NE--PG feed back mechanism is suggested in the regulation of renal circulation. The reduction of salt and water output induced by indomethacin appears to be independent of the alterations in renal haemodynamics, and seems rather to be the result of enhanced Na+ reabsorption, predominantly at the distal segment of the nephron, in the absence of PG, and/or a direct action of indomethacin.  相似文献

The hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR) tends to maintain liver blood flow under conditions of low mesenteric perfusion. We hypothesized that systemic hypoperfusion impairs the HABR. In 12 pigs, aortic blood flow was reduced by cardiac tamponade to 50 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for 1 h (short-term tamponade) and further to 30 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for another hour (prolonged tamponade). Twelve pigs without tamponade served as controls. Portal venous blood flow decreased from 17 +/- 3 (baseline) to 6 +/- 4 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.012) and did not change in controls, whereas hepatic arterial blood flow decreased from 2 +/- 1 (baseline) to 1 +/- 1 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.050) and increased from 2 +/- 1 to 4 +/- 2 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) in controls (P = 0.002). The change in hepatic arterial conductance (DeltaC(ha)) during acute portal vein occlusion decreased from 0.1 +/- 0.05 (baseline) to 0 +/- 0.01 ml. kg(-1). min(-1). mmHg(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.043). In controls, DeltaC(ha) did not change. Hepatic lactate extraction decreased, but hepatic release of glutathione S-transferase A did not change during cardiac tamponade. In conclusion, during low systemic perfusion, the HABR is exhausted and hepatic function is impaired without signs of cellular damage.  相似文献

Positron emission tomography (PET) with H2(15)O was used as an in vivo, relatively noninvasive, quantitative method for measuring regional blood flow to hindlimb skeletal muscle of anesthetized dogs. A hydrooccluder positioned on the femoral artery was used to reduce flow, and high-flow states were produced by local infusion of adenosine. Three to four measurements were made in each animal. Approximately 40 mCi of H2(15)O were injected intravenously, and serial images and arterial blood samples were acquired over 2.5 min. Data analysis was performed by fitting tissue and arterial blood time-activity curves to a modified, single-compartment Kety model. The model equation was also solved on a pixel-by-pixel basis to yield maps of regional skeletal muscle blood flow. After each PET determination, flow was measured with radioactive microspheres. Results of the PET measurements demonstrated that basal flow to hindlimb skeletal muscle was 3.83 +/- 0.36 ml x min(-1) x 100 g(-1) (mean +/- SE). This value was in excellent agreement with the microsphere data, 3.73 +/- 0.32 ml x min(-1) x 100 g(-1) (P = 0.69, not significant). Adenosine infusion resulted in flows as high as 30 ml x min(-1) x 100 g(-1), and the PET and microsphere data were highly correlated over the entire range of flows (r2 = 0.98, P < 0.0001). We conclude that muscle blood flow can be accurately measured in vivo by PET with H2(15)O and that this approach offers promise for application in human studies of muscle metabolism under varying pathophysiological states.  相似文献
