Plasma renin activity and plasma catecholamines in intact and splenectomized running and swimming beagle dogs

Abstract: The influence of splenectomy in the dog on plasma catecholamine levels and plasma renin activity during treadmill running and swimming was investigated. Plasma catecholamines were measured by a radioenzymatic assay and plasma renin activity by a radioimmunoassay. Exercise consistently increased plasma catecholamine levels before and after splenectomy (range of increase:3--38 pmol X ml-1). Swimming, however, was a stronger stimulus than running. No change in the ratio between noradrenaline and adrenaline was fo… Show more

“…Splenectomized dogs demonstrate a decrease of renal blood flow during free running (26), treadmill running, and swimming (16). In addition, splenectomized dogs have an enhanced release of catecholamines and of renin as compared to intact dogs (15). In intact dogs running was reported to cause a mild proteinuria (7), and in a previous study we found an increase in total protein excretion after swimming (14) but neither study differentiates between a glomerular or tubular effect.…”

“…11 Additionally, catecholamine concentrations were greater in splenectomized than in intact dogs after swimming. 18 Hypertensive hormones (eg, catecholamines, angiotensin II) are increased during exercise in people and have been proposed as factors inducing proteinuria and albuminuria. 7,16,19 Strenuous exercise in people causes a reversible increase in urinary albumin excretion of short duration.…”

“…Swimming was used as the exercise modus, as running in our dogs did not consistently provoke an increased protein excretion (10). Splenectomized dogs were used as the proteinuria (10) in these dogs and other exercise responses, such as increments in plasma renin activity and plasma catecholamines (8) and renal vascular resistance (9), are more pronounced than in intact dogs.…”

“…Albuminuria in dogs occurs after swimming, in particular after splenectomy (10). Responses to swimming that possibly contribute to the occurrence of post-exercise albuminuria are acidosis (7), increased activity of the reninangiotensin system (8), and decreased renal vascular conductance (9). An increased glomerular filtration of albumm in conjunction with acidosis can be explained by a decrease of the anionic charge on the albumin molecule (4).…”
