The relationship of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system to atrial natriuretic peptide and the natriuresis of volume expansion in diabetics with and without proteinuria.

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system are important regulatory hormones in sodium homeostasis. We have measured these hormones during volume expansion produced by water immersion in diabetic subjects without and with microalbuminuria or frank proteinuria and compared the response with normal controls. Diabetic subjects excreted about half the amount of sodium that was excreted by the normal subjects (39 vs 21 mmol) over 4 h. Diabetic subjects and normal ones showed a twofold rise in ANP during immersion and a marked suppression of both plasma renin activity and aldosterone. There was no difference in the hormonal response between diabetic and normal subjects or between those diabetic subjects with and those without incipient (microalbuminurics) or established nephropathy.

Lack of anion effect on volume expansion natriuresis in the developing canine kidney.

The renal response to volume expansion with sodium chloride or sodium bicarbonate was studied in 15 newborn and 13 adult dogs. Proximal and distal nephron function were estimated using the technique of distal nephron blockade. Fractional sodium reabsorption was 99.0 +/- 0.3% in newborn and 96.6 +/- 0.06% in adult during the NaCl expansion (P less than 0.01) and 98.1 +/- 0.7% in the newborn and 93.2 +/- 0.7% in the adult during NaHCO3 expansion (P less than 0.001). With either anion the higher fractional sodium reabsorption in the newborn was due to reabsorption of a greater fraction of the load presented to the distal nephron segment. The percent of the distal sodium load that was reabsorbed was 98.0 +/- 0.6% in the newborn and 92.2 +/- 1.0% in the adult during NaCl expansion, and 96.1 +/- 1.3% in the newborn and 81.5 +/- 2.4% in the adult during NaHCO3 expansion. Differences in distal nephron chloride, potassium and bicarbonate reabsorption among the groups support the hypothesis that the enhanced distal sodium reabsorption in the newborn occurred largely in the ascending loop of Henle with NaCl expansion, while it occurred in the late distal and cortical collecting tubules with NaHCO3 expansion. There was no difference between the natriuretic responses to NaCl or NaHCO3 in the newborn (P greater than 0.20); however, the natriuretic response to NaCl was less than that to NaHCO3 in the adult (P less than 0.001). This suggests that the bulk of the sodium that escaped reabsorption in Henle's loop during NaHCO3 expansion was reabsorbed in the late distal tubule in the newborn, but not in the adult.

Time course of denervation diuresis and natriuresis in the anaesthetized rat.

The effect of unilateral renal sympathectomy on renal excretion of water and sodium was studied in three groups of Inactin-anaesthetized rats: 1-3, 4-19, and 20-35 weeks after denervation. Increased sodium excretion from the denervated kidney in the absence of changes in GFR was observed up to 35 weeks following renal denervation. Thus, in a functional sense, renal reinnervation may have only been partial during the time interval studied.
