Our objectives were to investigate the extent to which angiotensin II (ANG II) and converting-enzyme inhibition (CEI) exert a direct vasoactive influence on the pulmonary circulation of conscious dogs. Multipoint pulmonary vascular pressure-cardiac index (P/Q) plots were constructed during normoxia in conscious dogs by stepwise constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava to reduce Q. The effects of ANG II infusion (60 ng X kg-1 X min-1, iv) and CEI with captopril (1 mg/kg plus 1 mg X kg-1 X h-1, iv) on pulmonary vascular P/Q plots were assessed first with the conscious dogs intact and again after combined administration of pharmacological antagonists to block sympathetic alpha- and beta-adrenergic, cholinergic, and arginine vasopressin receptors. In intact dogs, ANG II increased (P less than 0.01) the pulmonary vascular pressure gradient (pulmonary arterial pressure-pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, PAP-PCWP) over the entire range of Q studied (60-120 ml X min-1 X kg-1). Conversely, CEI decreased (P less than 0.05) PAP-PCWP at each level of Q. After administration of the autonomic nervous system and arginine vasopressin receptor antagonists, ANG II again increased (P less than 0.01) and CEI decreased (P less than 0.01) PAP-PCWP over the entire range of Q studied. Thus exogenous administration of ANG II results in active, nonflow-dependent constriction of the pulmonary circulation, and this effect is not dependent on the autonomic nervous system or increased circulating levels of arginine vasopressin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) have an activated brain angiotensin system. We hypothesized 1) that ventilation (V) would be greater in conscious SHR than in control Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and 2) that intravenous infusion of the ANG II-receptor blocker saralasin would depress respiration in SHR, but not in WKY. Respiration and oxygen consumption (VO(2)) were measured in conscious aged-matched groups (n = 16) of adult female SHR and WKY. For protocol 1, rats were habituated to a plethysmograph and measurements obtained over 60-75 min. After installation of chronic intravenous catheters, protocol 2 consisted of 30 min of saline infusion ( approximately 14 microliter. kg(-1). min(-1)) followed by 40 min of saralasin (1.3 microgram. kg(-1). min(-1)). V, tidal volume (VT), inspiratory flow [VT/inspiratory time (TI)], breath expiratory time, and VO(2) were higher, and breath TI was lower in "continuously quiet" SHR. In SHR, but not in WKY rats, ANG II-receptor block decreased V, VT, and VT/TI and increased breath TI. During ANG II-receptor block, an average decrease in VO(2) in SHR was not significant. About one-half of the higher V in SHR appears to be accounted for by an ANG II mechanism acting either via peripheral arterial receptors or circumventricular organs. 相似文献

Angiotensin (ANG) II effects may be partly mediated by endothelin (ET)-1. This study analyses the hemodynamic, renal, and hormonal responses of acute ET(A) receptor antagonism (LU-135252) at two ANG II plasma levels in eight conscious dogs. Protocol 1 involved a 60-min baseline, followed by two doses of ANG II for 60 min each (4 and 20 ng. kg(-1). min(-1)), termed ANG II 4 (slightly increased) and ANG II 20 (pathophysiologically increased ANG II plasma concentration). Protocol 2 was the same as protocol 1 but included 15 mg/kg iv LU-135252 after the baseline period. Protocol 3 was a 3-h time control. ANG II without LU-135252 did not increase plasma big ET-1 and ET-1, whereas LU-135252 increased ET-1 transiently after injection. This transient ET-1 increase was not reflected in urinary ET-1 excretion. The ANG II induced decreases in sodium, water, and potassium excretion, glomerular filtration rate, and fractional sodium excretion were not different with and without LU-135252. Mean arterial pressure increased during ANG II and was not lower with LU-135252 (-6 mmHg, not significant). Most importantly, during ANG II 20 LU-135252 prevented the decrease in cardiac output. Simultaneously, systemic vascular resistance increased 40% less, pulmonary vascular resistance was maintained at baseline levels, and central venous and wedge pressure were lower. Because ANG II stimulated endothelin de novo synthesis should just have started after 2 h of ANG II infusion, there must be mechanisms other than blocking the coupling of de novo synthesized endothelins to the ET(A) receptors to explain the effects of acute ET(A) receptor inhibition in our setting. 相似文献

To determine the influence of chronic ANG II infusion on urinary, plasma, and renal tissue levels of immunoreactive endothelin (ET), ANG II (65 ng/min) or saline vehicle was delivered via osmotic minipump in male Sprague-Dawley rats given either a high-salt diet (10% NaCl) or normal-salt diet (0.8% NaCl). High-salt diet alone caused a slight but not statistically significant increase (7 +/- 1%) in mean arterial pressure (MAP). MAP was significantly increased in ANG II-infused rats (41 +/- 10%), and the increase in MAP was significantly greater in ANG II rats given a high-salt diet (59 +/- 1%) compared with the increase observed in rats given a high-salt diet alone or ANG II infusion and normal-salt diet. After a 2-wk treatment, urinary excretion of immunoreactive ET was significantly increased by approximately 50% in ANG II-infused animals and by over 250% in rats on high-salt diet, with or without ANG II infusion. ANG II infusion combined with high-salt diet significantly increased immunoreactive ET content in the cortex and outer medulla, but this effect was not observed in other groups. In contrast, high-salt diet, with or without ANG II infusion, significantly decreased immunoreactive ET content within the inner medulla. These data indicate that chronic elevations in ANG II levels and sodium intake differentially affect ET levels within the kidney and provide further support for the hypothesis that the hypertensive effects of ANG II may be due to interaction with the renal ET system. 相似文献

Short-term intravenous infusion of angiotensin II (ANG II) into conscious rabbits reduces the range of renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) by attenuating reflex disinhibition of RSNA. This action of ANG II to attenuate the arterial baroreflex range is exaggerated when ANG II is directed into the vertebral circulation, which suggests a mechanism involving the central nervous system. Because an intact area postrema (AP) is required for ANG II to attenuate arterial baroreflex-mediated bradycardia and is also required for maintenance of ANG II-dependent hypertension, we hypothesized that attenuation of maximum RSNA during infusion of ANG II involves the AP. In conscious AP-lesioned (APX) and AP-intact rabbits, we compared the effect of a 5-min intravenous infusion of ANG II (10 and 20 ng x kg(-1) x min(-1)) on the relationship between mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and RSNA. Intravenous infusion of ANG II into AP-intact rabbits resulted in a dose-related attenuation of maximum RSNA observed at low MAP. In contrast, ANG II had no effect on maximum RSNA in APX rabbits. To further localize the central site of ANG II action, its effect on the arterial baroreflex was assessed after a midcollicular decerebration. Decerebration did not alter arterial baroreflex control of RSNA compared with the control state, but as in APX, ANG II did not attenuate the maximum RSNA observed at low MAP. The results of this study indicate that central actions of peripheral ANG II to attenuate reflex disinhibition of RSNA not only involve the AP, but may also involve a neural interaction rostral to the level of decerebration. 相似文献

The metabolic syndrome is associated with activation of the renin-angiotensin system. However, whether the coronary vascular response to ANG II is altered under this condition is unknown. Experiments were conducted in control and chronically high-fat-fed dogs with the prediabetic metabolic syndrome both in vitro (isolated coronary arterioles, 60-110 microm) and in vivo (anesthetized and conscious). We found that plasma renin activity and ANG II levels are elevated in high-fat-fed dogs and that this increase in ANG II is associated with a significant increase in ANG II-mediated coronary vasoconstriction in isolated coronary arterioles and in anesthetized open-chest dogs. The vasoconstriction to ANG II is abolished by ANG II type 1 (AT1) receptor blockade. In conscious chronically instrumented dogs, AT1 receptor blockade with telmisartan improved the balance between coronary blood flow and myocardial oxygen consumption in the high-fat-fed dogs but not in normal control dogs, i.e., the relationship between coronary venous Po2 and myocardial oxygen consumption was shifted upward, toward normal control values. Quantitative assessment of coronary arteriolar AT1 and ANG II type 2 (AT2) receptor mRNA levels by real-time PCR revealed no significant difference between normal control and high-fat-fed dogs; however, Western blot analysis showed a significant increase in AT1 receptor protein level with no change in AT2 receptor protein density. These findings indicate that AT1 receptor-mediated coronary constriction is augmented in the prediabetic metabolic syndrome and contributes to impaired control of coronary blood flow via increases in circulating ANG II and/or coronary arteriolar AT1 receptor density. 相似文献

Janus kinase (JAK) 2 is activated by ANG II in vitro and in vivo, and chronic blockade of JAK2 by the JAK2 inhibitor AG-490 has been shown recently to attenuate ANG II hypertension in mice. In this study, AG-490 was infused intravenously in chronically instrumented rats to determine if the blunted hypertension was linked to attenuation of the renal actions of ANG II. In male Sprague-Dawley rats, after a control period, ANG II at 10 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1) was infused intravenously with or without AG-490 at 10 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1) iv for 11 days. ANG II infusion (18 h/day) increased mean arterial pressure from 91 ± 3 to 168 ± 7 mmHg by day 11. That response was attenuated significantly in the ANG II + AG-490 group, with mean arterial pressure increasing only from 92 ± 5 to 127 ± 3 mmHg. ANG II infusion markedly decreased urinary sodium excretion, caused a rapid and sustained decrease in glomerular filtration rate to ~60% of control, and increased renal JAK2 phosphorylation; all these responses were blocked by AG-490. However, chronic AG-490 treatment had no effect on the ability of a separate group of normal rats to maintain normal blood pressure when they were switched rapidly to a low-sodium diet, whereas blood pressure fell dramatically in losartan-treated rats on a low-sodium diet. These data suggest that activation of the JAK/STAT pathway is critical for the development of ANG II-induced hypertension by mediating its effects on renal sodium excretory capability, but the physiological control of blood pressure by ANG II with a low-salt diet does not require JAK2 activation. 相似文献

Increased dietary sodium enhances both excitatory and inhibitory blood pressure responses to stimulation of the central sympathetic nervous system (SNS) centers. In addition, long-term (hours to days) administration of ANG II increases blood pressure by activation of the SNS. These studies investigated the effects of increased dietary sodium on SNS control of blood pressure during 0- to 24-h infusion of ANG II in conscious, male rats consuming either tap water or isotonic saline (Iso) for 2 to 3 wk. The SNS component (evaluated by ganglionic blockade with trimetaphan) of both control blood pressure and the pressor response to intravenous ANG II was reduced in Iso animals. Furthermore, although the pressor response to intravenous ANG II infusion was similar between groups, the baroreflex-induced bradycardia during the initial 6 h of ANG II infusion was significantly greater, whereas the tachycardia accompanying longer infusion periods was significantly attenuated in Iso animals. These data suggest that in normal rats increased dietary sodium enhances sympathoinhibitory responses during intravenous ANG II. 相似文献

Recent studies indicate that renal sympathetic nerve activity is chronically suppressed during ANG II hypertension. To determine whether cardiopulmonary reflexes and/or arterial baroreflexes mediate this chronic renal sympathoinhibition, experiments were conducted in conscious dogs subjected to unilateral renal denervation and surgical division of the urinary bladder into hemibladders to allow separate 24-h urine collection from denervated (Den) and innervated (Inn) kidneys. Dogs were studied 1) intact, 2) after thoracic vagal stripping to eliminate afferents from cardiopulmonary and aortic receptors [cardiopulmonary denervation (CPD)], and 3) after subsequent denervation of the carotid sinuses to achieve CPD plus complete sinoaortic denervation (CPD + SAD). After control measurements, ANG II was infused for 5 days at a rate of 5 ng. kg(-1). min(-1). In the intact state, 24-h control values for mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the ratio for urinary sodium excretion from Den and Inn kidneys (Den/Inn) were 98 +/- 4 mmHg and 1.04 +/- 0.04, respectively. ANG II caused sodium retention and a sustained increase in MAP of 30-35 mmHg. Throughout ANG II infusion, there was a greater rate of sodium excretion from Inn vs. Den kidneys (day 5 Den/Inn sodium = 0.51 +/- 0.05), indicating chronic suppression of renal sympathetic nerve activity. CPD and CPD + SAD had little or no influence on baseline values for either MAP or the Den/Inn sodium, nor did they alter the severity of ANG II hypertension. However, CPD totally abolished the fall in the Den/Inn sodium in response to ANG II. Furthermore, after CPD + SAD, there was a lower, rather than a higher, rate of sodium excretion from Inn vs. Den kidneys during ANG II infusion (day 5 Den/Inn sodium = 2.02 +/- 0.14). These data suggest that cardiac and/or arterial baroreflexes chronically inhibit renal sympathetic nerve activity during ANG II hypertension and that in the absence of these reflexes, ANG II has sustained renal sympathoexcitatory effects. 相似文献

Previous studies suggest that ANG II-induced hypertension in rats fed a high-salt (HS) diet (ANG II-salt hypertension) has a neurogenic component dependent on an enhanced sympathetic tone to the splanchnic veins and independent from changes in sympathetic nerve activity to the kidney or hind limb. The purpose of this study was to extend these findings and test whether altered autonomic control of splanchnic resistance arteries and the heart also contributes to the neurogenic component. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), superior mesenteric artery blood flow, and mesenteric vascular resistance (MVR) were measured during 4 control days, 14 days of ANG II delivered subcutaneously (150 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1)), and 4 days of recovery in conscious rats fed a HS (2% NaCl) or low-salt (LS; 0.1% NaCl) diet. Autonomic effects on MAP, HR, and MVR were assessed by acute ganglionic blockade with hexamethonium (20 mg/kg iv) on day 3 of control, days 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 13 of ANG II, and day 4 of recovery. MVR increased during ANG II infusion in HS and LS rats but remained elevated only in HS rats. Additionally, the MVR response to hexamethonium was enhanced on days 10 and 13 of ANG II selectively in HS rats. Compared with LS rats, HR in HS rats was higher during the 2nd wk of ANG II, and its response to hexamethonium was greater on days 7, 10, and 13 of ANG II. These results suggest that ANG II-salt hypertension is associated with delayed changes in autonomic control of splanchnic resistance arteries and the heart. 相似文献

The role of ANG type 1 (AT1) receptors in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) in the maintenance of sympathetic vasomotor tone in normotensive animals is unclear. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that AT1 receptors make a significant contribution to the tonic activity of presympathetic neurons in the RVLM of normotensive rats under conditions where the excitatory input to these neurons is enhanced, such as during systemic hypoxia. In urethane-anesthetized rats, microinjections of the AT1 receptor antagonist candesartan in the RVLM during moderate hypoxia unexpectedly resulted in substantial increases in arterial pressure and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), whereas under normoxic conditions the same dose resulted in no significant change in arterial pressure and RSNA. Under hypoxic conditions, and after microinjection of the GABA(A) receptor antagonist bicuculline in the RVLM, subsequent microinjection of candesartan in the RVLM resulted in a significant decrease in RSNA. In control experiments, bilateral microinjections in the RVLM of the compound [Sar1,Thr8]ANG II (sarthran), which decreases sympathetic vasomotor activity via a mechanism that is independent of AT1 receptors, significantly reduced arterial pressure and RSNA under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions. The results indicate that, at least under some conditions, endogenous ANG II has a tonic sympathoinhibitory effect in the RVLM, which is dependent on GABA receptors. We suggest that the net effect of endogenous ANG II in this region depends on the balance of both tonic excitatory and inhibitory actions on presympathetic neurons and that this balance is altered in different physiological or pathophysiological conditions. 相似文献

Effect of angiotensin II and saralasin on motor activity and the passive avoidance behavior of rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One nmole of angiotensin II (ANG II) or saralasin, given intracerebroventricularly, failed to alter the motor activity of rats in open field. A combined injection of both peptides caused a significant decrease of the number of crossings and rearings. In the electromagnetic motimeter horizontal activity of animals was changed by neither of the peptides while the vertical activity was increased by ANG II. Again, a combined injection of saralasin and ANG II inhibited both horizontal and vertical activity. Stereotypies evoked by both apomorphine (2 mg/kg) and amphetamine (6.5 mg/kg), given intraperitoneally, were markedly intensified by ANG II and saralasin. A five-fold increase of the re-entry latencies in the passive avoidance situation was observed after pre-test administration of ANG II or saralasin but not the two in combination. These results suggest that ANG II and saralasin may improve processes related to learning and memory through an unspecific mechanism involving central dopamine systems. 相似文献

There is growing recognition that angiotensin II (ANG II) formed intrarenally exerts direct effects on renal hemodynamics and tubular reabsorption. In vivo micropuncture experiments performed in anesthetized rats have shown that peritubular capillary infusion of either ANG II or angiotensin I (ANG I), at rates that do not markedly influence baseline vascular resistance, can increase proximal tubular reabsorption rate and enhance the responsiveness of the tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism. With higher ANG II or ANG I infusion rates, pronounced preglomerular vasoconstriction occurs, resulting in reduced glomerular capillary pressure and single nephron glomerular filtration rate. The effects of peritubular capillary infusion of ANG I on glomerular function have been shown to be inhibited by the ANG II receptor antagonist, saralasin, indicating that the observed effects of ANG I on proximal tubular reabsorption and glomerular function are not due to direct effects of the decapeptide but are mediated by increases in the interstitial ANG II concentrations resulting from intrarenally generated ANG II. Interestingly, neither peritubular capillary infusion nor systemic administration of large doses of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, enalaprilat, elicited significant blockade of the single nephron hemodynamic responses to peritubular infusion of ANG I. These findings indicate that intrarenal conversion of ANG I to ANG II occurs, at least in part, at a site which is inaccessible to acutely administered ACE inhibitors, or that there is an alternative pathway for the intrarenal conversion of ANG I to ANG II that is not blocked by ACE inhibitors. 相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that chronic infusion of exogenous ANG II, which induces blood pressure elevation, attenuates renal medullary endothelin B (ET(B)) receptor function in rats. Moreover, this was associated with a reduction of ET(B) receptor expression in the renal inner medulla. The aim of this present work was to investigate the effect of a physiological increase in endogenous ANG II (low-salt diet) on the renal ET system, including ET(B) receptor function. We hypothesized that endogenous ANG II reduces renal medullary ET(B) receptor function during low-salt intake. Rats were placed on a low-salt diet (0.01-0.02% NaCl) for 2 wk to allow an increase in endogenous ANG II. In rats on normal-salt chow, the stimulation of renal medullary ET(B) receptor by ET(B) receptor agonist sarafotoxin 6c (S6c) causes an increase in water (3.6 ± 0.4 from baseline vs. 10.5 ± 1.3 μl/min following S6c infusion; P < 0.05) and sodium excretion (0.38 ± 0.06 vs. 1.23 ± 0.17 μmol/min; P < 0.05). The low-salt diet reduced the ET(B)-dependent diuresis (4.5 ± 0.5 vs. 6.1 ± 0.9 μl/min) and natriuresis (0.40 ± 0.11 vs. 0.46 ± 0.12 μmol/min) in response to acute intramedullary infusion of S6c. Chronic treatment with candesartan restored renal medullary ET(B) receptor function; urine flow was 7.1 ± 0.9 vs. 15.9 ± 1.7 μl/min (P < 0.05), and sodium excretion was 0.4 ± 0.1 vs. 1.1 ± 0.1 μmol/min (P < 0.05) before and after intramedullary S6c infusion, respectively. Receptor binding assays determined that the sodium-depleted diet resulted in a similar level of ET(B) receptor binding in renal inner medulla compared with rats on a normal-salt diet. Candesartan reduced renal inner medullary ET(B) receptor binding (1,414 ± 95 vs. 862 ± 50 fmol/mg; P < 0.05). We conclude that endogenous ANG II attenuates renal medullary ET(B) receptor function to conserve sodium during salt deprivation independently of receptor expression. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the role of circulating ANG II in mediating changes in systemic and renal hemodynamics, salt and water balance, and neurohormonal activation during the early progression of heart failure. This objective was achieved by subjecting six dogs to 14 days of rapid ventricular pacing (240 beats/min) while fixing plasma ANG II concentration (by infusion of captopril + ANG II) either at approximately normal (days 1-8, 13-14) or at high physiological (days 9-12) levels. Salt and water retention occurred during the initial days of pacing before sodium and fluid balance was achieved by day 8. At this time, cardiac output and mean arterial pressure were reduced to approximately 55 and 75% of control, respectively; compared with cardiac output, reductions in renal blood flow were less pronounced. Although plasma ANG II concentration was maintained at approximately normal levels, there were sustained elevations in total peripheral resistance (to approximately 135% of control), filtration fraction (to approximately 118% of control), and plasma norepinephrine concentration (to 2-3 times control). During the subsequent high rate of ANG II infusion on days 9-12, there were no additional sustained long-term changes in either systemic or renal hemodynamics other than a further rise in right atrial pressure. However, high plasma levels of ANG II induced sustained antinatriuretic, sympathoexcitatory, and dipsogenic responses. Because these same long-term changes occur in association with activation of the renin-angiotensin system during the natural evolution of this disease, these results suggest that increased plasma levels of ANG II play a critical role in the spontaneous transition from compensated to decompensated heart failure. 相似文献

We investigated the respiratory and metabolic effects of decreased osmolality, and the potential roles of angiotensin II (ANG II) and the subfornical organ (SFO) in mediating these effects, in conscious Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Gastric water loading was induced either by oral gavage or an externalized indwelling stomach tube (20 mL x kg(-1) distilled water at body temperature). Repeated measurements after oral gavage were obtained with and without water loading and with and without ANG II receptor block (saralasin, 1.3 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1) iv). At 15 min after water loading by oral gavage, ventilation (V, 1.14+/-0.08 L x kg(-1) x min(-1)) and tidal volume (10.7+/-0.6 mL x kg(-1)) were transiently higher (P < 0.05), at a time when plasma osmolality was decreased (-8+/-1 mOsm), compared with gavage tube alone (0.95+/-0.08 L x kg(-1) min(-1) and 9.1+/-0.7 mL x kg(-1), respectively). However, water loading via stomach tube did not stimulate V; only during the 60-s period of water infusion did V increase briefly, but this was due to increased respiratory frequency. Dye indicators demonstrated that oral gavage exposes upper airway and esophageal afferents to water, presumably accounting for respiratory stimulation. Lesions of the SFO did not affect respiration or metabolism. A decrease in osmolality, associated with both water loading techniques, caused a sustained increase in oxygen consumption (Vo2 ) and a decrease in the V/Vo2 ratio. ANG II receptor block reduced the Vo2 response and prevented the decrease in V/Vo2 following water loading by oral gavage, but did not affect the transient stimulation of V. Unlike larger mammals, decreased osmolality does not stimulate respiration in the SD rat. 相似文献

Angiotensins different from ANG II exhibit biological activities, possibly mediated via receptors other than ANG II receptors. We studied the effects of 3-h infusions of ANG III, ANG-(1-7), and ANG IV in doses equimolar to physiological amounts of ANG II (3 pmol. kg-1. min-1), in six men on low-sodium diet (30 mmol/day). The subjects were acutely pretreated with canrenoate and captopril to inhibit aldosterone actions and ANG II synthesis, respectively. ANG II infusion increased plasma angiotensin immunoreactivity to 53 +/- 6 pg/ml (+490%), plasma aldosterone to 342 +/- 38 pg/ml (+109%), and blood pressure by 27%. Glomerular filtration rate decreased by 16%. Concomitantly, clearance of endogenous lithium fell by 66%, and fractional proximal reabsorption of sodium increased from 77 to 92%; absolute proximal reabsorption rate of sodium remained constant. ANG II decreased sodium excretion by 70%, potassium excretion by 50%, and urine flow by 80%, whereas urine osmolality increased. ANG III also increased plasma aldosterone markedly (+45%), however, without measurable changes in angiotensin immunoreactivity, glomerular filtration rate, or renal excretion rates. During vehicle infusion, plasma renin activity decreased markedly ( approximately 700 to approximately 200 mIU/l); only ANG II enhanced this decrease. ANG-(1-7) and ANG IV did not change any of the measured variables persistently. It is concluded that 1) ANG III and ANG IV are cleared much faster from plasma than ANG II, 2) ANG II causes hypofiltration, urinary concentration, and sodium and potassium retention at constant plasma concentrations of vasopressin and atrial natriuretic peptide, and 3) a very small increase in the concentration of ANG III, undetectable by usual techniques, may increase aldosterone secretion substantially. 相似文献

We determined the effects of losartan and CGP42112A (selective ligands of the AT1 and AT2 angiotensin receptors, respectively) and salarasin (a relatively nonselective angiotensin receptor antagonist) on urinary volume and urinary sodium and potassium excretion induced by administration of angiotensin II (ANG II) into the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of conscious rats. Both the AT1 and AT2 ligands and salarasin administered in the presence of ANG II elicited a concentration-dependent inhibition of urine excretion, but losartan inhibited only 75% of this response. The IC50 for salarasin, CGP42112A, and losartan was 0.01, 0.05, and 6 nM, respectively. Previous treatment with saralasin, CGP42112A and losartan competitively antagonized the natriuretic responses to PVN administration of ANG II, and the IC50 values were 0.09, 0.48, and 10 nM, respectively. The maximum response to losartan was 65% of that obtained with saralasin. Pretreatment with saralasin, losartan, and CGP42112A injected into the PVN caused shifts to the right of the concentration-response curves, but the losartan concentrations were disproportionately greater compared with salarasin or CGP42112A. The IC50 values were 0.06, 0.5, and 7.0 for salarasin, CGP42112A, and losartan, respectively. These results suggest that both AT1 and AT2 receptor subtypes in the PVN are involved in ANG II-related urine, sodium, and potassium excretion, and that the inhibitory responses to AT2 blockade are predominant. 相似文献

Central infusion of an angiotensin type 1 (AT(1)) receptor blocker prevents sympathetic hyperactivity and hypertension in Dahl salt-sensitive (S) rats on high salt. In the present study, we examined whether central infusion of a direct renin inhibitor exerts similar effects. Intracerebroventricular infusion of aliskiren at the rate of 0.05 mg/day markedly inhibited the increase in ANG II levels in the cerebrospinal fluid and in blood pressure (BP) caused by intracerebroventricular infusion of rat renin. In Dahl S rats on high salt, intracerebroventricular infusion of aliskiren at 0.05 and 0.25 mg/day for 2 wk similarly decreased resting BP in Dahl S rats on high salt. In other groups of Dahl S rats, high salt intake for 2 wk increased resting BP by ~25 mmHg, enhanced pressor and sympathoexcitatory responses to air-stress, and desensitized arterial baroreflex function. All of these effects were largely prevented by intracerebroventricular infusion of aliskiren at 0.05 mg/day. Aliskiren had no effects in rats on regular salt. Neither high salt nor aliskiren affected hypothalamic ANG II content. These results indicate that intracerebroventricular infusions of aliskiren and an AT(1) receptor blocker are similarly effective in preventing salt-induced sympathetic hyperactivity and hypertension in Dahl S rats, suggesting that renin in the brain plays an essential role in the salt-induced hypertension. The absence of an obvious increase in hypothalamic ANG II by high salt, or decrease in ANG II by aliskiren, suggests that tissue levels do not reflect renin-dependent ANG II production in sympathoexcitatory angiotensinergic neurons. 相似文献

This study investigated whether adenosine mediates the decrease in plasma renin activity (PRA) during acute hypoxia. Eight chronically tracheotomized, conscious beagle dogs were kept under standardized environmental conditions and received a low-sodium diet (0.5 mmol.kg body wt(-1).day(-1)). During the experiments, the dogs were breathing spontaneously via a ventilator circuit: first hour, normoxia (21% inspiratory concentration of O(2)); second and third hours, hypoxia (10% inspiratory concentration of O(2)). Each of the eight dogs was studied twice in randomized order in control and theophylline experiments. In theophylline experiments, theophylline, an A(1)-receptor antagonist, was infused intravenously during hypoxia (loading dose: 3 mg/kg within 30 min, maintenance: 0.5 mg. kg(-1). h(-1)). In theophylline experiments, PRA (5.9 +/- 0.8 ng ANG I. ml(-1). h(-1)) and ANG II plasma concentration (15.9 +/- 2.3 pg/ml) did not decrease during hypoxia, whereas plasma aldosterone concentration decreased from 277 +/- 63 to 132 +/- 23 pg/ml (P < 0.05). In control experiments, PRA decreased from 6.8 +/- 0.8 during normoxia to 3.0 +/- 0.5 ng ANG I. ml(-1). h(-1) during hypoxia, ANG II decreased from 13.3 +/- 1.9 to 7.3 +/- 1.9 pg/ml, and plasma aldosterone concentration decreased from 316 +/- 50 to 70 +/- 13 pg/ml (P < 0.05). Thus infusion of the adenosine receptor antagonist theophylline inhibited the suppression of the renin-angiotensin system during acute hypoxia. The decrease in aldosterone occurred independently and is apparently directly related to hypoxia. In conclusion, it is likely that adenosine mediates the decrease in PRA during acute hypoxia in conscious dogs. 相似文献
