The significance of duration of salt loading on cardiovascular response and urinary excretion of catecholamine in rats.

Abstract: To analyze the conflicting data on the relationship between sodium intake and catecholamine release, the effect of the duration of high sodium loading on cardiovascular response and catecholamine release was examined in conscious rats. Urinary excretions of norepinephrine (NE), and dopamine (DA) were measured frequently over a 4 week period. Male Wistar rats at 4 weeks of age were given a diet containing either basal (0.3%) or high (3.1%) sodium content. Systolic blood pressure was measured weekly by the tail … Show more

“…These results are not surprising since conflicting results have been reported concerning dopamine values in essential AHT: similar (10, 11) as well as increased (12,13) or decreased levels (14,15) have been observed. Our data are in agreement with the fact that the involvement of ERD in resting eunatremic conditions seems to be unlikely (16,18) asking the question of the reality of a dopaminergic basal tone (17).…”

“…Salt loading is associated in normotensive dogs with a rise in urinary DA excretion, as it could be expected from previous studies with rats (18,19) or humans (3,20). The increase is of short term duration (2 days) since the third day of experiment, urinary dopamine values returned to basal levels.…”

“…We speculate this may be related to a decrease in the number of D 1 -like receptors 62,63 in the proximal tubule available for receptor-receptor interactions between the D 1 -like receptor and the AT 1 receptor after 5 days on a HS diet, which we will study in the future.…”

“…Sodium retention caused by excess sodium intake is one of the possible factors influencing expression of nNOS gene in the adrenal, because sodium retention is thought to occur on day 10 during high sodium load; that blood pressure was greater than normal and values of pulse rate and urinary excretion of norepinephrine were lower than normal on day 10 of application of high sodium load to rats implies that sodium retention and reflex suppression of the sympathetic nervous activity had occurred [29,30]. If nNOS in the adrenal were involved in maintaining blood pressure, an increase in blood pressure due to sodium retention would be expected to cause the down-regulation of nNOS gene.…”
