Normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats were given 8% NaCl for 5 weeks. This salt load did not affect their blood pressure nor hematocrit, and plasma atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) showed no change at 3 weeks but decreased after 5 weeks of the experimental period when compared with control rats. The responsiveness of particulate guanylate cyclase and formation of cGMP in ANF target organs suggested an augmented baseline activity of the cGMP system but its relative hyporesponsiveness to exogenous ANF following prolonged salt loading. Decreased plasma ANF levels cannot be explained by its altered production since atrial levels of the peptide were comparable in rats with or without salt loading. Atrial ANF mRNA was unaffected by the salt regimen. This study demonstrates that plasma ANF does not increase during long-term NaCl loading and even decreases after 5 weeks of 8% NaCl. The changes in plasma ANF are associated with changes in the functional state of ANF receptors coupled to particulate guanylate cyclase, but in the opposite direction than expected from lowered plasma ANF. Thus, ANF may not play a significant role in the regulation of sodium excretion in response to prolonged high salt consumption or, if it does, it is not reflected by expected changes in its plasma levels. 相似文献

The levels of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and the mRNA for ANF were measured in the left ventricles of Dahl salt-sensitive (S) and salt-resistant (R) rats. ANF and ANF mRNA were both much higher in ventricular tissue of newborn rats of both strains compared to young adults, which represents the normal developmental pattern. There was no strain difference between S and R when the rats were young (1.5 months of age), but in older animals (8.5 months of age), when S rats were markedly hypertensive, there was a 5- to 10-fold increase in both left ventricular ANF and left ventricular ANF mRNA in S, but not R, rats. Atrial ANF mRNA was not similarly increased in hypertensive S rats. The ANF levels present in ventricles could not be accounted for by contamination with plasma ANF. Moreover, HPLC analysis of the forms of ANF in ventricles of newborn and hypertensive S rats showed that immunoreactive ANF in ventricles was present mainly in the same precursor form found in atria and not the shorter peptide form found in plasma. Northern blot analysis showed that ANF mRNA for atria and ventricles were the same size. It is concluded that in the S rat the heart left ventricle responds to hypertension by increasing production and storage of ANF. 相似文献

Effect of prolonged high salt intake on atrial natriuretic factor's kinetics in rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Plasma atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) paradoxically decreases after 5 weeks (but not after 3 weeks) of 8% NaCl intake in normotensive rats. As this phenomenon remains unaccounted for by changes in ANF production, we studied the disappearance of [125I]ANF(99-126) from the circulation as an alternative explanation of plasma ANF decline. Following 5 weeks (but not 3 weeks) of an 8% NaCl diet, plasma concentrations of [125I]ANF were significantly decreased and metabolic clearance rate and volume of distribution were increased compared to control rats fed a 0.8% NaCl diet. By studying [125I]ANF tissue uptake we noted significantly greater peptide uptake after 5 weeks (but not after 3 weeks) of high salt consumption in several tissues. We hypothesize that prolonged (at least 5 weeks) 8% NaCl ingestion increases the density and/or affinity of ANF binding sites. These changes may be responsible for the previously observed decline in plasma ANF concentrations after a prolonged high salt intake. 相似文献

Lead exposure alters cardiovascular function and has been implicated in the etiology of hypertension. Therefore it was of interest to study the short term effect of lead treatment on atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), a hormone which produces vascular smooth muscle relaxation and natriuresis. Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups containing 4 animals each and injected intraperitoneally with normal saline (control), 0.01, 0.1, 0.5 or 1.0 mg/kg of body weight with lead acetate solution twice a day for 7 days, and then maintained for a period of 30 days. During this period water consumption and urine volume were measured daily. At the end of the 30 day period, immunoreactive levels of ANF in hypothalamus, atria and plasma were measured by radioimmunoassay. Lead treatment did not alter water consumption, but significantly decreased urine output. At all doses, lead produced a decrease in hypothalamic content of ANF and slightly increased atrial levels. The content of ANF in plasma was decreased. The changes in ANF content indicate that lead interacts with the hormonal regulation of the cardiovascular system and these observations may relate to the cardiovascular toxicity of this heavy metal. 相似文献

1. We studied the effects of selective chronic sodium depletion of chloride depletion on atrial natriuretic peptide receptor number in the subfornical organ and paraventricular nucleus of young rats.2. Sodium or chloride depletion decreased plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide, increased plasma renin activity, and induced extracellular fluid volume contraction. Chloride depletion induced more significant changes in extracellular fluid volume contraction than sodium depletion.3. In the subfornical organ, atrial natriuretic peptide receptor number significantly decreased (30%) after sodium depletion, while chloride depletion induced a smaller, not statistically significant decrease. Conversely, atrial natriuretic peptide receptors located in the paraventricular nucleus of young rats were not significantly affected by sodium or chloride depletion.4. Water deprivation reversed the decrease in atrial natriuretic peptide receptors produced by sodium depletion. Water-deprived sodium-depleted rats actually had higher numbers of atrial natriuretic peptide receptors in the subfornical organ than control rats. These changes were associated with severe extracellular fluid volume contraction and up regulation of brain vasopressin mRNA steady-state levels. Thus, the direction of change in the number of subfornical organ atrial natriuretic peptide receptors was dependent on the degree of extracellular fluid volume contraction.5. Our results suggest that atrial natriuretic peptide receptors located in the subfornical organ, and not in the paraventricular nucleus, are selectively regulated by sodium depletion and extracellular fluid volume contraction. 相似文献

Since volume expansion and high blood pressure (BP) are known stimuli of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) release, and since this peptide may be involved in mineralocorticoid escape, we investigated the effects of chronic deoxycorticosterone (DOCA) and DOCA-NaC1 treatment on renal glomerular ANF receptor density and affinity in relation to atrial and plasma ANF levels. An increase in plasma immunoreactive ANF (IR-ANF) was observed both after two and four weeks of treatment. IR-ANF concentrations were elevated in the left atrium only in four-week DOCA treated rats. Administration of the mineralocorticoid alone resulted in a decreased density of glomerular ANF receptors in both time periods investigated. DOCA-NaC1-treated animals presented an increased receptor density during the pre-hypertensive stage (2 weeks) and a reduced density in the later hypertensive period (4 weeks). Receptor affinity in both groups was identical to that in the controls after 2 weeks and was augmented after 4 weeks of treatment. Our data suggest that the down-regulation of renal glomerular ANF receptors during chronic DOCA-NaC1 administration may play a role in the maintenance of high BP in this model of volume-expanded hypertension. 相似文献

Anesthetized beagle dogs received increasing doses of continuous infusions of a 26-amino-acid synthetic atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Urinary sodium excretion rose in a dose-dependent manner to a maximum level similar to that seen after hydrochlorothiazide administration. Mean arterial blood pressure decreased, but only modestly, and not in a dose-dependent fashion. Dogs chronically retaining NaCl secondary to constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava showed only modestly enhanced natriuresis when infused with similar levels of ANF. When ANF was infused directly into the renal artery of anesthetized beagles, a dose-dependent natriuresis and calciuresis were observed with maximal fractional sodium excretion averaging approximately 8%. Although glomerular filtration tended to increase, the average dose-related changes were not significant. Cyclic GMP excretion was increased during intra-renal-arterial infusion of ANF. Excretion of cyclic GMP by both the infused and noninfused kidneys was equal, which suggests that urinary cyclic GMP was not nephrogenous but derived from the elevated circulating levels. These and other data from rats dissociate changes in urinary cyclic GMP excretion and sodium excretion. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of sodium chloride and adrenergic agents on the release of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) using working heart-lung preparations from Dahl salt-hypertension sensitive (S) and Dahl salt-hypertension resistant (R) rats. High concentrations of NaCl moderately increased ANF release, but this was attributed to small increases in left atrial pressure rather than to a direct effect of NaCl on ANF release; S and R rats responded similarly. Neither isoproterenol (beta 1 + beta 2 agonist) nor clonidine (alpha 2 agonist) had any effect on ANF release in the heart-lung preparation. In contrast, phenylephrine (alpha 1 agonist) stimulated ANF release. This could not be accounted for by change in atrial pressure and appeared to be a direct effect. S and R rats both released ANF in response to phenylephrine, but there was a modest tendency for hypertensive S rats to release more ANF than normotensive R rats, which is consistent with previous data on mechanically induced (atrial stretch) ANF release in these strains. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic factor: radioimmunoassay and effects on adrenal and pituitary glands 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A simple and sensitive radioimmunoassay was developed for measurement of immunoreactive atrial natriuretic factor (IR-ANF) in rat and human plasma and in rat atria. The two atria contain about 20 micrograms ANF per rat. The right atrium contained 2.5 times more ANF than did the left. Ether anesthesia and morphine markedly increased IR-ANF in rat plasma. The concentration of IR-ANF in plasma of clinically normal human subjects was 65.3 +/- 2.5 pg/ml. Paroxysmal tachycardia and rapid atrial pacing significantly increased IR-ANF in human plasma. Two- to seven-fold higher concentrations were found in coronary sinus blood than in the peripheral circulation. In the plasma of rats and humans, circulating ANF is probably a small-molecular-weight peptide. ANF acts on the adrenal and the pituitary. ANF inhibits aldosterone secretion from rat zona glomerulosa and steroid secretion by bovine adrenal zona glomerulosa and fasciculata. ANF stimulated the basal secretion of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in vitro and inhibited KCl-stimulated release of AVP. 相似文献

Rat heart ventricles contained immunoreactive atrial natriuretic factor (irANF) and mRNA for ANF. The size of ANF mRNA in the ventricle was identical with that of the atria. High performance gel filtration chromatography showed that 84% of ventricular irANF elutes at a position corresponding to the low molecular weight form of ANF (99-126) and 16% of irANF elutes at a position corresponding to the precursor form of ANF. The irANF content of the ventricles of spontaneously hypertensive rats was 3 times as much as that of Wistar Kyoto rats. These results suggest that ventricle synthesizes ANF in response to hypertension and processes in a manner different from that in atria. 相似文献

The levels of immunoreactive brain natriuretic peptide (ir-BNP) and immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (ir-ANP) were evaluated by radioimmunoassay in both the atrium, ventricle and plasma of adriamycin-induced nephrotic rats and control rats. There was no difference in right and left atrial concentrations of ir-BNP, however, a higher right atrial concentration of ir-ANP was observed in nephrotic rats than in controls (p less than 0.01). The ventricular ir-BNP and ir-ANP were increased in nephrotic rats compared to controls (BNP: p less than 0.001, ANP: p less than 0.001). Cardiac BNPs were composed of pro-BNP (gamma-BNP) and its C-terminal 45-amino-acid peptide (BNP-45). The ratio of BNP-45/gamma-BNP in nephrotic rats was higher than that of controls in both atria and in the ventricle. Plasma ir-BNP and ir-ANP were significantly higher in nephrotic rats than in controls (BNP: p less than 0.001, ANP: p less than 0.001), and each level was negatively correlated with urinary sodium excretion in nephrotic rats (BNP: r = -0.84, p less than 0.001, ANP: r = -0.88, p less than 0.001). These results suggest that production and secretion of both BNP and ANP are concomitantly stimulated by a decreased renal ability to eliminate sodium and water, but this secretion is insufficient to induce effective natriuresis in nephrotic rats. 相似文献

We determined if nine precirrhotic unanaesthetized dogs with chronic bile duct ligation (CBDL) responded uniformly to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANF) by infusing this peptide sequentially over 8-12 weeks at 175 ng.kg-1.min-1 and observing the natriuretic response. ANF was administered every 2 weeks post-CBDL until the 8th week and given again during the cirrhotic phase with ascites present (10-12 weeks post-CBDL). Sodium balance studies were conducted at similar time intervals. During the control period and at weeks, 2, 6, and 8 post-CBDL all dogs responded to ANF with a significant change in sodium excretion (delta UNaV, 50-240 mu equiv./min). At these times, all dogs were in sodium balance. At week 4 and during the ascitic period, heterogeneity of response to ANF was observed. In the former interval, five dogs responded (delta UNaV,75-230 mu equiv./min) and four did not, while in the latter interval, five dogs responded (delta UNaV, 50-240 mu equiv./min) and three did not (one dog died). In both time periods, there was severe urinary sodium retention (daily UNaV, 11 +/- 3 and 2 +/- 1 mequiv./day, respectively) while the dogs were ingesting 45 mequiv.Na+/day. The heterogeneity of natriuretic response was not correlated to plasma immunoreactive ANF, renin, or aldosterone levels. Plasma volume was significantly expanded from control during both intervals. We conclude that there is transient sodium retention during the 4th week post-CBDL, and that this period is associated with the heterogeneity of natriuretic response to ANF, despite the absence of ascites or edema. 相似文献

A direct radioimmunoassay for ANF in human plasma was developed. A synthetic alpha-human atrial peptide (Ser 99-Tyr 126) was used for preparation of the iodinated tracer and the standards. The sensitivity of the method is 1.9 pg/ml. Concentration of immunoreactive ANF (IR-ANF) in plasma of 59 clinically normal subjects was 65.3 +/- 2.5 pg/ml (mean +/- SE). In two patients who underwent atrial pacing an increase of about 100 percent in circulating IR-ANF was observed. IR-ANF was extracted from human plasma by Vycor glass and purified by HPLC. The main immunoreactive isolated peak contained a low molecular weight peptide. 相似文献

An atrial natriuretic peptide has been isolated from plasma of morphine treated rats by means of glass beads extraction, immunoaffinity chromatography, and reverse phase HPLC. 1.3 micrograms of immunoreactive material was obtained. The biological activity of this material was found comparable to that of ANF (Arg 101 - Tyr 126) on the inhibition of basal aldosterone secretion by rat adrenal zona glomerulosa cells and the displacement curve of iodinated ANF from ANF receptors in a mesenteric artery preparation. Gas phase amino acid sequencing indicated that it is related to ANF (Ser 99 - Tyr 126). These results suggest that the maturation of ANF may require a tryptic-like cleavage after a single Arg residue. 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

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a 28-amino acid peptide hormone of cardiac origin. It has natriuretic, diuretic and vasorelaxant properties and inhibits several cardiovascular modulators. Because of the possible effects of arginine vasopressin (AVP) on ANF secretion, we have investigated ANF gene expression in Brattleboro rats which are genetically deficient in AVP. Our results indicate that cardiac ANF mRNA and ANF content are higher in Brattleboro rats compared to Long-Evans controls, whereas the plasma levels are similar in both groups. Typical secretory granules containing immunoreactive ANF are present in ventricular cardiocytes of Brattleboro but not of Long-Evans rats. These data suggest that ANF release may be uncoupled from its synthesis in the absence of AVP. 相似文献

Using a novel in vitro co-culture system, we investigated the possible influence of vascular endothelial cells on the secretion of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) from atrial myocytes. Co-culture of bovine aortic endothelial cells grown on Cytodex-3 microcarrier beads with primary monolayer cultures of neonatal rat myocytes induced a 2.1-fold increase in immunoreactive ANF (irANF) in the medium, compared with irANF in medium from atrial cultures alone. This increase did not appear to be the result of processing of prohormone to more immunoreactive species, and could be inhibited by 47% with 10 microM acetylcholine. The endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor peptide, endothelin, elicited a dose-dependent increase in ANF secretion from atrial cultures, but, contrary to vasopressin, was incapable of further stimulating release from atrial-endothelial co-cultures. These experiments suggest that endothelium stimulates the release of ANF from myocytes, possibly by the action of the peptide endothelin. 相似文献

Although many factors may modulate the release of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), the primary mechanism has been demonstrated to be atrial stretch. Recent studies have led to the suggestion that the peptidergic innervation of the heart, through the release of peptides, may be involved in the control of ANF secretion. We have examined the influence of chronic capsaicin treatment on three models of atrial stretch that release ANF. This treatment inhibited ANF released through in vivo blood volume expansion and through balloon inflation in the right atrium of in vitro isolated perfused hearts. Immunohistochemical and electron microscopical analysis confirmed the absence of innervation of the heart by calcitonin gene related peptide and substance P immunoreactive nerve fibres and apparent lack of effect on atrial granules in capsaicin treated rats. We conclude that capsaicin-sensitive cardiac innervation is a component modulating the release of ANF, stimulated by atrial stretch in the rat. 相似文献

ADP-ribosylation of isolated rat islets of Langerhans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A rapid and reproducible radioimmunoassay method was developed for rat atrial natriuretic factor (ANF)-IV. The method is also applicable to human atrial peptide. ANF was detected in rat hypothalamus (5.03 pmoles/g tissue), right (86.8 pmoles/mg tissue) and left atria (52.5 pmoles/mg tissue), and plasma (156 fmoles/ml). After high salt intake immunoreactive ANF in atria and plasma increased significantly, while a significant decrease was observed in hypothalamus. Gel chromatography revealed high and low molecular weight ANF in atria and hypothalamus while only a low molecular weight form was found in plasma. 相似文献
