Atrial Natriuretic

The potential role of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) in the renal response to head-out water immersion (WI) was studied. Five female mongrel dogs, trained to stand for 100 min in air followed by 100 min of thermoneutral WI at 37 degrees C or 200 min in air (timed control, TC), were chronically instrumented with arterial and venous catheters. The animals were hydrated with a volume of 0.45% NaCl solution equivalent to 2% of their body weight. Prehydration levels of arterial ANF were 243 +/- 15 (SE), and venous ANF levels were 211 +/- 21 pg/ml. WI resulted in an increase in urine flow from 0.7 +/- 0.1 ml/min to a peak flow of 2.2 +/- 0.3 ml/min (P less than 0.05). On immersion, plasma venous and arterial ANF levels increased significantly by 29 and 21% from the preimmersion values of 183 +/- 14 and 222 +/- 20 pg/ml, respectively. The arterial-venous difference for plasma ANF was maintained at 35 +/- 14 pg/ml (P less than 0.05) during WI; therefore venous sampling may suffice as a measure of circulating ANF levels. Sodium excretion increased linearly during WI to a peak value of 228 +/- 32 mu eq/min from a base line of 52 +/- 12 mu eq/min (P less than 0.05). These data indicate that peripheral tissues extract ANF and that WI is a physiological stimulus for the release of ANF. However, the time course and magnitude of the changes in plasma ANF and urine sodium excretion during WI are not comparable, and other mechanisms are likely responsible for the WI natriuresis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

And Oxidative Stress

Abstract Liver cell hydration (cell volume) is dynamic and can change within minutes under the influence of hormones, nutrients, and oxidative stress. Such volume changes were identified as a novel and important modulator of cell function. It provides an early example for the interaction between a physical parameter (cell volume) on the one hand and metabolism, transport, and gene expression on the other. Such events involve mechanotransduction (osmosensing) which triggers signaling cascades towards liver function (osmosignaling). This article reviews our own work on this topic with emphasis on the role of β1 integrins as (osmo-)mechanosensors in the liver, but also on their role in bile acid signaling.

Interstitial Infusion

This study determined the levels of adenosine in the renal medullary interstitium using microdialysis and fluorescence HPLC techniques and examined the role of endogenous adenosine in the control of medullary blood flow and sodium excretion by infusing the specific adenosine receptor antagonists or agonists into the renal medulla of anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats. Renal cortical and medullary blood flows were measured using laser-Doppler flowmetry. Analysis of microdialyzed samples showed that the adenosine concentration in the renal medullary interstitial dialysate averaged 212 ± 5.2 nM, which was significantly higher than 55.6 ± 5.3 nM in the renal cortex ( n = 9). Renal medullary interstitial infusion of a selective A1antagonist, 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX; 300 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1, n = 8), did not alter renal blood flows, but increased urine flow by 37% and sodium excretion by 42%. In contrast, renal medullary infusion of the selective A2 receptor blocker 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX; 150 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1, n = 9) decreased outer medullary blood flow (OMBF) by 28%, inner medullary blood flows (IMBF) by 21%, and sodium excretion by 35%. Renal medullary interstitial infusion of adenosine produced a dose-dependent increase in OMBF, IMBF, urine flow, and sodium excretion at doses from 3 to 300 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1( n = 7). These effects of adenosine were markedly attenuated by the pretreatment of DMPX, but unaltered by DPCPX. Infusion of a selective A3receptor agonist, N 6-benzyl-5′-( N-ethylcarbonxamido)adenosine (300 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1, n = 6) into the renal medulla had no effect on medullary blood flows or renal function. Glomerular filtration rate and arterial pressure were not changed by medullary infusion of any drugs. Our results indicate that endogenous medullary adenosine at physiological concentrations serves to dilate medullary vessels via A2 receptors, resulting in a natriuretic response that overrides the tubular A1 receptor-mediated antinatriuretic effects.
