    Abstract: The current study was designed to evaluate whether the renal papilla participates in the natriuretic and diuretic response to atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Papillary necrosis was induced in female rats by intravenous infusion of 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide (BEA) 48 h prior to clearance experiments; untreated (UNT) animals served as controls. Rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium, tracheotomized, and catheters placed in a femoral artery and vein and in the bladder. At the time of surgery, the bladder urine was collected and its osmolality used as an indication of papillary destruction. Mean urine osmolalities (+/- SE) of BEA rats were significantly lower than those of UNT rats (443 +/- 10 vs. 1,229 +/- 57 mosmol/kg, respectively), indicating that BEA caused papillary necrosis. Synthetic ANF (rat 8-33) was given as a bolus intravenously (1.25, 2.5, 5.0 micrograms/kg). The ANF-induced increases in sodium excretion were not significantly different between UNT and BEA rats at any ANF dose. These results demonstrate that a functional papilla is not required for the action of ANF in the rat.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to quantitate the effects of increases in atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), within the pathophysiological range, on the acute pressure natriuresis mechanism and the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in modulating these effects. Renal hemodynamics and electrolyte excretion were measured in anesthetized dogs while renal perfusion pressure (RPP) was controlled at three levels (120-122, 100, and 75 mmHg) with and without intrarenal infusion of ANP at 5 ng.kg-1.min-1. Sodium excretion was significantly higher during ANP infusion at RPP of 122 +/- 3 mmHg, averaging 55.8 +/- 13.7 during control and 113.3 +/- 23.3 mueq/min during ANP infusion. AT RPP of 101 +/- 1 mmHg, sodium excretion was 51.8 +/- 17.4 during control and 93.0 +/- 17.6 mueq/min during ANP infusion, but at RPP of 75 +/- 0 mmHg there was no difference in sodium excretion between control and ANP infusion. In a second set of dogs, angiotensin II (ANG II) formation was blocked with captopril (20 micrograms.kg-1.min-1), circulating (5 ng.kg-1.min-1), and the above protocol was repeated. When the RAS was fixed, the renal responses to ANP infusion were abolished, even at the higher pressure levels. These data indicate that ANP increases the slope of pressure natriuresis; at higher levels of RPP, ANP potentiates pressure natriuresis but not at lower pressures. In addition, part of this effect may be due to suppression of the RAS, because the ANP-induced shift in the pressure natriuresis relationship was abolished when circulating ANG II was maintained constant.

    Abstract: To describe the flow characteristics of vessels open in zone 1, we perfused isolated rabbit lungs with Tyrode's solution containing 1% albumin, 4% dextran, and papaverine (0.05 mg/ml). Lungs were expanded by negative pleural pressure (Ppl) of -10, -15, -20, and -25 cmH2O. Pulmonary arterial (Ppa) and venous (Ppv) pressures were varied relative to alveolar pressure (PA = 0) and measured 5–10 mm inside the pleura (i) and outside (o) of the lungs. With Ppa(o) at -2.5 cmH2O, we constructed pressure-flow (P-Q) curves at each Ppl by lowering Ppv(o) until Q reached a maximum, indicating fully developed zone 1 choke flow. Maximum flows were negligible until Ppl fell below -10 cmH2O, then increased rapidly at Ppl of -15 and -20 cmH2O, and at Ppl of -25 cmH2O reached about 15 ml.min-1.kg body wt-1. The Ppv(o) at which flow became nearly constant depended on degree of lung inflation and was 5–8 cmH2O more positive than Ppl. As Ppv(o) was lowered below Ppa(o), Ppv(i) remained equal to Ppv(o) until Ppv(i) became fixed at a pressure 2–3 cmH2O more positive than Ppl. At this point the choke flow was therefore located in veins near the pleural boundary. No evidence of choke flow (only ohmic resistance) was seen in the intrapulmonary segment of the vessels remaining open in zone 1. With Ppv(o) held roughly at Ppl, Q could be stopped by lowering Ppa(o), at which time Ppa(i) was several cmH2O above Ppv(i), showing that intrapulmonary vessel closure had occurred.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

    Abstract: Neutrophils have been implicated in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury associated with clinical and experimental sepsis. Data from in vitro systems and experimental animals have suggested that neutrophil-derived oxidants, particularly H2O2, may be primarily responsible for endothelial damage, vasoconstriction, and lung edema. With the use of endotoxin infusion as an in vivo model of sepsis we tested the hypothesis that pretreatment with catalase, a peroxide scavenger, would ameliorate the resultant changes in pulmonary vasoconstriction and lung fluid balance. Paired experiments were performed in 16 goats with chronic lung lymph fistulas. One group of animals (n = 7) received endotoxin first alone and then again, several days later, after pretreatment with Ficoll-linked catalase. As a control, identical experiments were performed in a separate group (n = 6) with Ficoll-linked albumin substituted for Ficoll-catalase. A third group (n = 3) was given endotoxin alone and then again during a continuous infusion of catalase. Plasma and lymph levels of catalase were comparable to or exceeded those previously shown to be completely protective in isolated perfused lung preparations and in vitro systems. Endotoxin caused neutropenia, pulmonary arterial hypertension, decreased cardiac output, and increases in lymph flow to approximately three times base line, with a return of all variables toward control values by 6 h. Catalase pretreatment produced no significant differences in any of these variables. These experiments do not support a role for H2O2 as a mediator of acute lung injury due to endotoxemia.

    Abstract: This study was designed to evaluate the renal effects of atrial natriuretic factor [ANF(8-33)] in rats with aminonucleoside (AMN)-induced nephrotic syndrome. AMN (100 mg/kg iv) was administered to adult female rats either 2 (AMN 2, n = 7), 4 (AMN 4, n = 7), 6 (AMN 6, n = 7), or 14 (AMN 14, n = 6) days before clearance experiments; untreated (UNT, n = 7) animals served as controls. During clearance experiments, rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. Protein excretion rates were similar between UNT and AMN 2 but increased stepwise in AMN 4, AMN 6, and AMN 14 rats. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was similar in UNT and AMN 2, lower in AMN 4 and AMN 14, and lowest in AMN 6 rats. Basal sodium excretion (UNaV) was not different among the five groups. An ANF primer (1.0 micrograms/kg iv) plus a constant infusion (0.1 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) for 1 h produced a significantly lower increase in UNaV in AMN 2 and AMN 14 than in UNT and was not natriuretic or diuretic in AMN 4 or AMN 6 rats. The ANF-induced increase in UNaV was similar between AMN 2 and AMN 14 rats. ANF had no effect on the GFR in any group. A higher ANF bolus (5.0 micrograms/kg iv) was then infused. This ANF bolus increased UNaV only in UNT and AMN 2 rats. Finally, a bolus of furosemide (4.0 mg/kg iv) was given; UNaV increased similarly in UNT, AMN 2, and AMN 14, and to a lesser extent in AMN 4 and AMN 6 rats. Thus, there is an attenuated natriuretic and diuretic response to ANF in rats with AMN-induced nephrotic syndrome. This altered responsiveness to ANF may contribute to the sodium and water retention characteristic of this disorder.
