Effects of catecholamines injected into the septal area of the rat brain on natriuresis, kaliuresis and diuresis

Abstract: Urinary output of Na+ and K+, and volume of urine have been studied in conscious, unrestrained, water-loaded male rats following the intraseptal injection of catecholamines. Natriuresis and kaliuresis increased after injecting noradrenaline (NA), the intensity being dose related. The dose-response curve suggests that a monomolecular interacting takes place between NA and pharmacological receptors present in the septal area. No change was observed in diuresis. Systematic mapping of the septal area yielded about… Show more

“…The adrenergic pathways of the septal area play an important role in the regulation of electrolyte and water excretion. α-Adrenoceptors present an excitatory effect, whereas ß-adrenoceptors present an inhibitory effect (9,10). Rats with electrolytic lesions of the septal area drink more water than normal ones in response to thirst stimuli mediated by ANGII (11).…”

“…The natriuretic-kaliuretic response elicited by cholinergic stimulation of the lateral hypothalamic area depends in part on synapses located in the medial septal area (MSA), the response elicited by cholinergic stimulation of the MSA also utilizes synapses located in the lateral hypothalamic area (21). Increased renal sodium and potassium excretion has been obtained with noradrenaline and other adrenergic drugs injected into the septal area (9). There is some evidence that fibers from the subfornical organ converge to the nucleus medianus and also project to the supraoptic nucleus, paraventricular nucleus and throughout the lateral preoptic area-lateral hypothalamic area (22).…”

“…jection of norepinephrine or hypertonic saline; these results suggest that a hormonal pathway mediates the effects ofthese stimuli on sodium excretion (7). Since we have shown that the cholinergic, adrenergic, or osmotic stimulation of tissue adjacent to the 3V induces natriuresis and kaliuresis (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11) and since ANP is localized in these structures (19), in the present experiments, we determined if the effects on sodium excretion of stimulation and ablation of the AV3V region might be mediated, at least in part, by altered ANP release.…”

“…Cholinergic or adrenergic stimulation of the medial septal area, medial preoptic area, anterior lateral hypothalamus, and subfornical organ as well as the anterior portion of the third ventricle (AV3V) induces a dose-related natriuresis accompanied by a lesser kaliuresis (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). Thus, considerable evidence indicates that the medial preoptic area, anterior lateral hypothalamus, subfornical organ, AV3V, habenula, stria medullaris, supraoptic nucleus, and medial septal area are organized in a neural circuit involved in the regulation of water and sodium intake and excretion (12,13,17).…”

“…The potential contributions of the central nervous system and kidneys in these models of chronic stress hypertension are suggested by studies of acute environmental stress. Acute exposure to air jet stress leads to antinatriuresis and an increase in renal sympathetic nerve activity that is much greater in nephrine into the ventromedial hypothalamus, lateral hypothalamus, septal area, or 3rd cerebral ventricle of conscious rats; this natriuresis is prevented by ai-adrenoceptor antagonists and is potentiated by a 2 -adrenoceptor antagonists (Camargo et al, 1976;Morris et al, 1977;Pillar et al, 1977;Saad et al, 1984). In contrast, an antinatriuresis follows the injection of isoproterenol into the lateral hypothalamus, septal area, or 3rd cerebral ventricle; this antinatriuresis is abolished by ft, 2 -or ft-, but not ft-adrenoceptor antagonists (Morris et al, 1977;Pillar et al, 1977;Camargo et al, 1979).…”
