Natriuresis caused by increased carotid Na+ concentration after renal denervation

Abstract: The renal effects of a selective estimated 3 mM increase in the concentration of Na+ in blood perfusing the brain was investigated in conscious dogs with surgically denervated kidneys. In split-infusion experiments the concentration of Na+ in carotid plasma was increased by a bilateral carotid infusion of hypertonic NaCl combined with an infusion of distilled water into the caval vein. In control experiments the same load of NaCl and water was administered as an isotonic solution into the carotid and jugular v… Show more

“…We therefore suggest that a substantial part of the natriuresis induced by hypertonic saline loading must be attributed to the increased osmotic concentration rather than to the change in body fluid volume. Previous investigations from our laboratory also support the concept of such a concentration-mediated natriuresis in dogs (20)(21)(22)(23) as well as in humans (4,6,10). However, in our recent human investigations using a design very similar to the present, hypertonic and isotonic saline induced natriuretic responses that were statistically indistinguishable.…”

“…13,27,39). The efferent signal in the natriuresis of central osmostimulation is most likely mediated by a humoral factor because renal denervation does not abolish the natriuresis of osmostimulation (22), but this factor has not been positively identified. In the present study, we measured several well-known mediators of sodium excretion to clarify the mechanism of the osmostimulated natriuresis.…”

“…Blood (18 ml) was sampled at 10-min intervals for determination of plasma concentrations of norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and plasma osmolality as previously described (5,12,20). The catheter was thereafter flushed with 18 ml of isotonic saline.…”

“…The intra-assay coefficient of variation (c.v.) in the urine and plasma assay runs were 14 and 10%, respectively, at an ET-1 concentration of 6 pg ml-' in urine and plasma. Immunoreactivity of AVP in plasma was determined by the technique described by Emmeluth et al (1996) using an antibody (WAR) described earlier (Andersen, Andersen, Schiitten, Warberg & Bie, 1990). The detection limit was <0'15 pg per tube.…”
