“…and Carrier? et al 4 observed a prompt fall in the sum of the NE and E levels in plasma measured as total catecholamines after volume expansion. We have found E levels to be 41% of the NE levels in arterial blood during the control period, and therefore a fall in E levels alone could produce a significant change if total catecholamines were quantitated.…”

“…Obviously, our data do not rule out the possibility that adrenergic mecha nisms do come into play when a heavy saline load is given. This would induce a marked expansion ofintravascular volume which, as shown in experimental animals, could pos sibly lead to reflex sympathetic withdrawal through adequate stimulation of cardiopul monary volume receptors [5][6][7]18].…”

“…Volume expansion after salt loading is a well-known suppressor of renin secretion [1,3], Experi mental evidence suggests that saline sup pression of renin secretion is primarily due to the sodium (chloride) that crosses the macula densa, rather than to the increase in intravascular volume perse [3,4], However, volume expansion may also reduce the ac tivity of the adrenergic nervous system [5][6][7] and no evidence has been available as to whether intra-or extrarenal neurally me diated mechanisms participate in saline in hibition of renin secretion in humans. To examine the role of neural and humoral adrenergic mechanisms, in this study the renal arterial and venous plasma concentra tions of noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (A) and the plasma renin activity (PRA)…”

“…Acute ECFV expan sion with i.v. saline infusion, a condition in which the renal sympathetic tone is consider ably suppressed [22], was shown to be accom panied by increased urinary DA excretion [5][6][7][8][9][10], As the plasma levels of DA remain unde tectable [22] or decrease [10] under these con ditions, the production of endogenous DA within the kidney must have increased [23]. In PCT cells, L-amino acid decarboxylase converts L-DOPA to DA [24,25], This locally formed DA is thought to inhibit Na-KATPase activity [26,27] in PCT cells [28,29] by involving DA-1 and/or DA-2 receptors [30] and to participate in proximal tubular fluid and Na absorption [31].…”
