1. In patients with essential hypertension plasma renin concentration (PRC) was assessed in relation to age, plasma volume, extracellular fluid volume, aldosterone secretion rate, renal vascular resistance, filtration fraction and excess sodium excretion after acute salt loading. 2. Up to a calculated renal vascular resistance of 20 000 dyn s cm−5, PRC was found to be inversely related with the above-mentioned variables except plasma volume, extracellular fluid volume and aldosterone secretion rate. 3. It is concluded that the phenomenon of renin suppression is not dependent on mineralocorticoid excess. Instead, a decrease in PRC together with hypernatriuresis appears to reflect a progressive switch in intrarenal haemodynamic relationships. Renin suppression should therefore be considered to be a feature of progressive, but still uncomplicated, essential hypertension.

The aim of this study was to examine the changes in the concentration of plasma immunoreactive atrial natriuretic factor (iANF) that occur in response to expansion or depletion of the extracellular fluid volume in conscious dogs. The plasma iANF concentration was also measured postprandially after the ingestion of a meal containing 125 meq of sodium. Postprandial plasma iANF increased 45% (P less than 0.05) above the base-line concentration, and this increase was accompanied by a brisk natriuresis. After a low-sodium meal, however, plasma iANF and sodium excretion failed to increase. The plasma iANF concentration increased from 57 +/- 5 to 139 +/- 36 pg/ml (P less than 0.05) immediately after volume expansion with intravenous isotonic saline infusion (2.5% body wt) administered over a 30-min period; plasma iANF remained elevated at 90 +/- 14 pg/ml (P less than 0.05) for an additional 30 min before returning toward preinfusion levels. Plasma iANF decreased 45% from 78 +/- 17 to 43 +/- 7 pg/ml (P less than 0.05) in response to the administration of ethacrynic acid (2.0 mg/kg, iv bolus) that produced an estimated 15% depletion of intravascular volume. In additional experiments the infusion of synthetic alpha-human ANF at 100 and 300 ng X kg-1 X min-1 increased (P less than 0.05) both the plasma iANF concentration and the urinary excretion of iANF. This study demonstrates that the secretion of ANF is consistently influenced by changes in the extracellular fluid volume. Furthermore, the results support the concept that ANF functions to increase postprandial sodium excretion following the ingestion of a high-sodium meal.

1. The interrelationship between extracellular fluid volume and extracellular anion composition as determinants of sodium excretion was studied in thirty-four dogs. In six, hypovolaemia, hypochloraemia and hyperbicarbonataemia were induced by the administration of ethacrynic acid and a low chloride diet. Isotonic sodium bicarbonate was then infused resulting in a progressive increase in sodium excretion. After 3 h while continuing the sodium bicarbonate infusion, an infusion of hydrochloric acid was given in order to return extracellular anion composition towards normal. This resulted in a prompt fall in sodium excretion without a change in GFR. 2. Ten studies were performed to determine whether this hydrochloric acid-induced enhancement of sodium conservation depends upon the presence of volume depletion and sodium avidity or whether it could also be demonstrated under circumstances of volume expansion. In these studies, hypervolaemia, hypochloraemia, hyperbicarbonataemia and a brisk natriuresis were induced by infusing isotonic sodium bicarbonate into normal dogs. The addition of hydrochloric acid returned anion composition to normal and, as before, resulted in a prompt suppression of sodium excretion despite continued sodium loading and enhanced glomerular filtration. 3. Results obtained from three related protocols (six animals each) confirmed that hypochloraemia and hyperbicarbonataemia were the necessary prerequisite conditions for this effect of hydrochloric acid in volume expanded animals. We interpret these findings as evidence that the response of the kidney to changes in extracellular fluid volume may be significantly affected by changes in the extracellular concentration of physiologic anions.

Eight anesthetized dogs, given Clostridium perfringens type A toxic filtrate into the hind-limb muscles, showed severe spreading edema, hemoconcentration, marked reduction in para-aminohippurate (PAH) and creatinine clearances, and a rise in the renal vascular resistance. In the first 4 hr sodium excretion fell sharply, and mean arterial blood pressure, slightly. In eight similar dogs venous-occlusive pneumatic tourniquets were applied high on both hind limbs for 90 min. Edema was localized and minimal. Hematocrit was unchanged. PAH and creatinine clearances were extremely low in the second 30-min period of the occlusion but had risen somewhat in the last 30-min period. Sodium excretion was greatly reduced. Arterial pressure and vascular resistance rose very significantly. Upon removal of the tourniquets, PAH and creatinine clearances, blood pressure, and renal vascular resistance returned toward normal. Sodium excretion continued to fall. In many respects the renal changes resulting from two different forms of peripheral trauma are similar. Submitted on August 14, 1959

To determine the effect of hindlimb suspension on body fluid volume, salt and water balance, and relevant hormones, two series of experiments were performed in an experimental protocol including periods of isolation (7 days), horizontal attachment (7 days), and suspension (14 days). 1) During the first experiment, water and electrolyte balance, arginine vasopressin (AVP), and guanosine 3',5'- cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) were determined in urine, atrial natriuretic peptide in plasma and atria, and renin concentration and AVP in plasma in 30 rats. 2) During the second experiment, blood volume and extracellular fluid volume were measured by a dilution technique (Evans blue and sodium thiocyanate) in another 30 rats. We observed a pronounced and early effect of horizontal attachment on the renal variables. After 48 h, diuresis (49%), natriuresis (44%), kaliuresis (36%), osmotic load (39%), creatinine (28%), and AVP excretion (155%) were significantly increased in attached rats (P < 0.05). There was no short-term (24-h) effect of suspension on urine flow and Na+, K+, creatinine, and AVP excretion, but the urine cGMP decreased significantly (45%; P < 0.05). Significant decreases in natriuresis, kaliuresis, urine creatinine, and osmotic load occurred in the suspension group 7 days after suspension. After the 14-day tail suspension, plasma volume and extracellular fluid volume measured in suspended rats were not different from isolated rat values, whereas plasma volume increased by 15% (P < 0.05) in the attached rats. Plasma immunoreactive plasma atrial natriuretic levels of suspended rats were significantly reduced by 35% vs. isolated rats (P < 0.001) and by 18% vs. attached rats (P < 0.05). By using this experimental protocol, the physiological alterations revealed that suspension produced some acute and long-term effects, but the fixation to the suspension device, restraint, and confinement have their own influence on fluid distribution and renal function.

AbstractThe purpose of the present study was to determine the time course and magnitude of changes in extracellular and intracellular fluid volumes in relation to changes in total body water during prolonged submaximal exercise and recovery in horses. Seven horses were physically conditioned over a 2-month period and trained to trot on a treadmill. Total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) and plasma volume (PV) were measured at rest using indicator dilution techniques (D2O, thiocyanate and Evans Blue, respectively). Changes in TBW were assessed from measures of body mass, and changes in PV and ECFV were calculated from changes in plasma protein concentration. Horses exercised by trotting on a treadmill for 75–120 min incurred a 4.2% decrease in TBW. During exercise, the entire decrease in TBW (mean±standard error: 12.8±2.0 l at end of exercise) could be attributed to the decrease in ECFV (12.0±2.4 l at end of exercise), such that there was no change in intracellular fluid volume (ICFV; 0.9±2.4 l at end of exercise). PV decreased from 22.0±0.5 l at rest to 19.8±0.3 l at end of exercise and remained depressed (18–19 l) during the first 2 h of recovery. Recovery of fluid volumes after exercise was slow, and characterized by a further transient loss of ECFV (first 30 min of recovery) and a sustained increase in ICFV (between 0.5 and 3.5 h of recovery). Recovery of fluid volumes was complete by 13 h post exercise. It is concluded that prolonged submaximal exercise in horses favours net loss of fluid from the extracellular fluid compartment.
