These experiments were designed to test whether changing perfusate calcium or magnesium concentrations affected renin release in the isolated perfused rat kidney, and whether kidneys removed from sodium-loaded or sodium-deprived rats released the same amount of renin in response to identical stimuli. Kidneys were perfused with Kreb-Henseleit solution containing albumin. Renin release was inversely related to perfusate calcium concentration, whereas renin release was directly related to perfusate magnesium. Although a low calcium medium or low perfusion pressure (50 mmHg) stimulated renin release, the release was substantially greater in the sodium-deprived rats. Increasing the perfusate sodium concentration from 85 to 206 mM increased excretion, but did not alter renin release. It is concluded that a) low perfusate calcium and high magnesium concentrations stimulate renin release, b) kidneys removed from sodium-deprived rats released substantially more renin thatn those from sodium-loaded rats, and c) changing perfusate sodium concentration alters sodium excretion, but does not affect renin release.

The renal metabolism and handling of [1,2-3H]aldosterone ([3H]A) was studied using isolated perfused rat kidney under different perfusion conditions. The metabolite production rate (MPR) and the urinary excretion of [3H]A together with its radiometabolites (UV/P3H) were studied. Among the formed metabolites, no acid-labile conjugate of aldosterone (ALC) was detected. The MPR was not altered in studies using nonfiltering kidney, a result that suggests that the majority of metabolites were formed without requirement of the process of glomerular filtration and tubular uptake of the hormone. High perfusion pressure (high PP) resulted in a striking increase in whole metabolic clearance rate of aldosterone (MCR[3H]A) due mostly to an enhanced urinary excretion of intact aldosterone and, to a lesser degree, to a significant increase in MPR. Factors determining the excretion rate of [3H]A and its metabolites were than investigated under administration of diuretics. Mannitol (44 mM) induced a marked increase in urine volume (UV) accompanied by a significant UV/P3H increase. Meanwhile, 0.1 mM furosemide resulted in an increase only in UV, but not in UV/P3H. These results revealed the UV dependence of aldosterone excretion in certain diuretic conditions.

Alpha 2-Adrenoceptors are known to inhibit adenylate cyclase in a number of tissues, but their function in the kidney is unknown. Adenylate cyclase and sodium excretion were stimulated with furosemide (30 microM) in the rat kidney perfused with Krebs-Henseleit solution (albumin 6.5 g/100 ml, 36 degrees C). beta-Adrenoceptors and alpha 1-adrenoceptors were blocked by propranolol (100 nM) and prazosin (30 nM) in the perfusate. Urinary cAMP and sodium excretion increased with furosemide. Activation of alpha 2-adrenoceptors with epinephrine (28 nM) caused no change in perfusion pressure or flow but decreased urinary cAMP and sodium excretion. These effects of epinephrine were reversed by the alpha 2-selective adrenoceptor blocking agent yohimbine (300 nM). Thus, in the setting of furosemide-stimulated sodium excretion and an associated elevation of adenylate cyclase, alpha 2-adrenoceptor stimulation resulted in sodium retention and inhibition of adenylate cyclase. By this receptor mechanism the sympathoadrenal system may contribute to retention of sodium.

ABSTRACT The isolated perfused rat kidney was used to study the effects of amino-terminal fragments of human parathyroid hormone, hPTH(1–34), bovine parathyroid hormone, bPTH(1–84) and of PTH-related proteins, PTHrP(1–34), PTHrP(1–84), PTHrP(1–108) and PTHrP(1–141) on urinary bicarbonate excretion. PTHrP(1–34) (7 nmol/l), bPTH(1–84) (5·5 nmol/l) and hPTH(1–34) (7 nmol/l) had similar effects in increasing bicarbonate excretion with respect to the control. At lower concentrations (0·7 nmol/l) all PTHrP components, but not hPTH(1–34) or bPTH(1–84) increased bicarbonate excretion significantly. Infusions of PTHrP(1–108) and PTHrP(1–141) at 0·7 nmol/l, while associated with a rise in urinary bicarbonate concentration and excretion during the early stages of perfusion, produced a sharp decline in bicarbonate concentration and excretion in the latter part of perfusion. The different peptides produced no significant differences in glomerular filtration rate, fractional excretion of sodium or urine volume. The absence of substantial differences between the effects of hPTH(1–34) and PTHrP(1–34) are as noted in previous studies. The differences between PTHrP(1–108)/PTHrP(1–141) and PTHrP(1–34) demonstrated here are consistent with (1) the clinical manifestations of acidosis in hyperparathyroidism and alkalosis in humoral hypercalcaemia of malignancy, and (2) an independent action of a component of PTHrP beyond amino acids 1–34.
