Converting‐enzyme Inhibition and 1‐sarcosine‐8‐isoleucine‐angiotensin Ii: Effects on Renal Function in the Dehydrated Sheep

Abstract: SUMMARYThe effect ofa converting-enzyme inhibitor (captopril) was studied in nine conscious dehydrated Merino ewes. Captopril (4 mg I.V. over 40 min) caused significant decreases in mean arterial blood pressure (M.A.B.P.), renal vascular resistance (R.V.R.) and filtration fraction, and increases in urine flow (V), sodium excretion, glomerular filtration rate (G.F.R.), renal plasma flow, solute clearance (Cosm), solute-free water reabsorption (TC,H,O) and plasma renin activity (P.R.A.).None of these effects was… Show more

“…In previous experiments where the effect of an ACE inhibitor on renal function was investigated in sheep, samples were taken either during the continuous i.v. infusion of inhibitor 13 , or very shortly (less than 200 minutes) after the bolus dosage of inhibitor 19,20 . However, Fitzpatrick et al 6 compared the effects of intermittent (twice daily) and continuous Captopril administration on some aspects of renal function.…”

“…Several experiments in the past have addressed the effects of angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) inhibition on renal function in sheep under various conditions such as in the dehydrated animal, in sodium-restricted sheep and in sheep treated with adrenocorticotropic hormone 13,19,20 . Failure of angiotensin II inhibition to result in an increase in urinary sodium excretion in sheep on a low sodium diet led to speculation that sheep may be less dependent on angiotensin II in regulating sodium excretion than are other species 13 .…”

“…Sheep were prepared for renal function tests as described by Yesberg, Henderson, Dallemagne, Law, Hamilton & Cross (1984). Both jugular veins were catheterized after local anaesthesia with 2.0 ml lignocaine (Xylocaine 2 %, Astra; s.c.).…”

“…Plasma renin activity (PRA) also increased during water deprivation in camels (Al-Qarawi et al, 1997;, sheep , and goats . In addition, plasma angiotensin n increased during dehydration in camels (Al-Qarawi et al, 1997), sheep (Yesberg et al, 1984), and cattle . Plasma Cortisol concentrations did not change in camels during 8-10 days of dehydration .…”
