Insulin Effect on Renal Sodium Reabsorption in Adolescent Offspring of Essential Hypertensive Parents

Abstract: We previously showed that children and adolescent offspring of patients with essential hypertension have an increased proximal renal sodium reabsorption as measured by lithium fractional excretion. Insulin has been shown to have antinatriuretic properties and to be increased (hyperinsulinemia) in essential hypertension. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of insulin on the increased proximal renal sodium reabsorption previously reported. Lithium and sodium fractional excretions were measured 3 hours… Show more

“…12, 13 We have also been able to show a reduced ability of the kidney to excrete sodium in normotensive adolescents, offspring of hypertensive parents, in whom we reported an increased fractional proximal renal sodium reabsorption, evaluated through the fractional excretion of lithium. 7 In this study there was very little difference in blood pressure between the three groups. The finding of an increased fractional proximal sodium reabsorption in offspring of hypertensive parents could reflect an abnormality preceding the development of high blood pressure.…”

“…5,6 We have previously reported abnormalities in the renal excretion of sodium in normotensive adolescent offspring of essential hypertensive parents. 7 The fact that not all obese individuals have high blood pressure and that offspring of hypertensive parents have sodium reabsorption abnormalities led us to evaluate the role of a family history of hypertension versus obesity in the renal handling of sodium in normotensive obese adolescents with and without a family history of hypertension. 2 ) were included in the study.…”

“…Nevertheless, this does not exclude the possibility that insulin may affect renal tubular sodium reabsorption at a site distal to the proximal tubule. 49 In summary, comparing black and white patients with essential hypertension, black race was a stronger predictor of cardiac size and inulin and lithium clearances than either blood pressure or any of the components of the insulin resistance syndrome. In addition, blood pressure was associated with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in both patient groups, and in blacks, microalbumin excretion and glomerular hyperfiltration were also related to the insulin resistance syndrome.…”

“…It is well known that hyperinsulinemia activates Na + /H + pump in PCT resulting in increased uptake of Na + and shedding more H + . This is accompanied by higher reabsorption of water, potassium, and bicarbonate [21, 22]. …”
