Effects of atriopeptin infusion versus effects of left atrial stretch in awake dogs

Abstract: We infused synthetic atriopeptin III intravenously into 10 conscious dogs while monitoring renal function and systemic hemodynamics. The results obtained from these infusion experiments were compared with results from other experiments in which left atrial distension was performed in the same dogs. Both atriopeptin infusion and left atrial distension caused significant increases in urine flow, sodium excretion, potassium excretion, and free water reabsorption and a significant decrease in renal blood flow.

“…Therefore, we conclude that increase in the circulating plasma volume is an important factor in controlling hANP release, but that elevation of the serum sodium concentra¬ tion, like increase in the plasma osmolality, is not essential for stimulating hANP release in the physiological state. The infusion of atriopeptin at a rate of 3 µg·kg"1·min"1 caused a significant increase in the urinary output and sodium excretion in conscious dogs (Goetz et al 1986a). An intravenous bolus injection of 100 µg of hANP induced a four-fold increase in urinary sodium excretion and a two¬ fold increase in the urinary volume in men (Ri¬ chards et al 1985).…”

“…Numerous previous studies have demonstrated that the decrease in arterial blood pressure elicited by the administration of ANP is not accompanied by a reflex tachycardia (Baum et al, 1986;Goetz et al, 1986;Bie et al, 1988;Ebert et al, 1988;Lambert et al, 1994). These results form the basis of a first hypothesis that ANP interferes with the baroreflex control of the circulation via the autonomic nervous system.…”

“…However, some peptides, such as atrial natri uretic factor, are also vasorelaxants [11,12], but reduce ABP by lowering CO [13,14] not through peripheral vasodilation. In our study, because of the reduction in TPRI and the increase in Cl, the increase in ABP was con sidered to be mediated, at least in part, by the increase of the Cl not through the increase in peripheral vascular resistance.…”
