Abstract:The effects of 24-hour intracerebroventricular infusion of human atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and two related fragments were studied in conscious sheep. ANF (1-28) had no effect on either mean arterial pressure (MAP) or heart rate (HR) when infused at 3 or 10 micrograms/hr, however a small diuresis and an increase in urinary sodium (Na) excretion was observed. The smaller fragment, ANF (5-27) infused at 10 micrograms/hr, increased MAP, HR and body temperature, although the same rate of infusion of ANF (5-28) was without effect. All peptides increased plasma sodium concentration and plasma osmolality. None of the peptides affected plasma ACTH, glucose or renin concentration. ANF (1-28) had no effect on either Na intake or water intake in Na-depleted sheep. These studies suggest that members of the ANF family can influence a number of physiological functions following central administration.
