Atrial Natriuretic

1. We assessed the changes of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide gene expression associated with progression and regression of cardiac hypertrophy in renovascular hypertensive rats (RHR). 2. Two-kidney, one-clip hypertensive rats (6-week-old male Wistar) were made and studied 6 (RHR-1) and 10 weeks (RHR-2) after the procedure. Regression of cardiac hypertrophy was induced by nephrectomy at 6 weeks after constriction, and the nephrectomized rats were maintained further for 4 weeks (nephrectomized rat: NEP). Sham operation was performed, and the rats were studied after 6 (Sham-1) and 10 weeks (Sham-2). Atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide gene expression in the left ventricle was analysed by Northern blotting. 3. Plasma atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide were significantly higher in RHR-1 and RHR-2 than in Sham-1, Sham-2 and NEP. Atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide mRNA levels in RHR-1 were approximately 7.2-fold and 1.8-fold higher than those in Sham-1, respectively, and the corresponding levels in RHR-2 were 13.0-fold and 2.4-fold higher than those in Sham-2, respectively. Atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide mRNA levels of NEP were normalized. Levels of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide mRNA were well correlated positively with left ventricular weight/body weight ratios. There was a significant positive correlation between the levels of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide mRNA (r = 0.86, P<0.01). 4. We conclude that the expression of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide genes is regulated in accordance with the degree of myocardial hypertrophy and that the augmented expression of these two natriuretic peptides may play an important role in the maintenance of cardiovascular haemodynamics in renovascular hypertension.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP)-derived epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) have potent vasodilatory and diuretic feature, and therefore potentially hypotensive effect. No in vivo studies, however, were performed to support it. This study investigated the hypothesis via overexpressing CYP epoxygense genes in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV) was utilized to mediate long-term transfection of CYP2J2 and CYP2C11 genes, respectively, in adult SHR, and animal systolic blood pressure (SBP) was monitored using arterial caudilis indirect manometric method. Results showed that at 2 months the urinary excretion of stable hydrolysis metabolic product of 14, 15-EE, 14–15-DHET increased by 11 and 8.7 folds in rAAV-2J2 and rAAV-2C11 groups, respectively, compared with AAV-GFP-treated rats. (2) SBP in 2J2- and 2C11-treated rats decreased from 175.0 ± 2.8mHg to 163.5 ± 5.8mmHg and 161.2 ± 6.1 mmHg, respectively, ( p <0.01) at month 2, and it is 165.0 ± 4.7 mmHg and 173.0 ± 12.8 mmHg at month 6 after gene injection (~30mmHg and ~23mmHg lowerer than that in control animals, respectively, p <0.001). (3) Before the rats were sacrificed, cardiac function tests with Pressure-Volume System showed that maximum intracardiac pressure was 202.1 ± 30.0 & 209.1 ± 17.1mmHg in two gene-treated rats, respectively, significantly lower than control (241.2 ± 18.2mmHg, p <0.01) and cardiac output in treatment rats were significantly higher than control (p<0.05). (4) Interestingly, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) mRNA were up-regulated 6–14 folds respectively in myocardium of 2J2 and 2C11 groups; furthermore, C-type receptor mRNA of ANP was increased in heart, lung, kidney and aorta. (5) in cultured atrial cells (HLB2G5), exogenous EETs stimulated ANP production. In conclusions, for first time our data indicates overexpression of CYP2J2 or CYP2C11 could prevent development of hypertension in SHR, improve cardiac functions, which may involve up-regulating ANP expression and its receptors in target tissues, which suppresses collagen deposition and cardiovascular remodeling.

To examine mechanisms by which administration of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) decreases venous return, we compared the hemodynamic effects of ANP (0.5 microgram X min-1 X kg-1), furosemide (FU, 10 micrograms X min-1 X kg-1), and hexamethonium (HEX, 0.5 mg X min-1 X kg-1) with those of vehicle (VE) in anesthetized rats. Compared with VE, ANP reduced mean arterial pressure (106 +/- 4 vs. 92 +/- 3 mmHg; P less than 0.05), central venous pressure (0.3 +/- 0.3 vs. -0.7 +/- 0.2 mmHg; P less than 0.01), and cardiac index (215 +/- 12 vs. 174 +/- 10 ml X min-1 X kg-1; P less than 0.05) and increased calculated resistance to venous return (32 +/- 3 vs. 42 +/- 2 mmHg X ml-1 X min X g; P less than 0.01). Mean circulatory filling pressure, distribution of blood flow between splanchnic organs and skeletal muscles, and total peripheral resistance remained unchanged. FU increased urine output similar to that of ANP, yet produced no hemodynamic changes, dissociating diuresis, and decreased cardiac output. HEX lowered arterial pressure through a reduction in total peripheral resistance without altering cardiac output or resistance to venous return. The results confirm previous findings that ANP decreases cardiac output through a reduction in venous return and suggest that this results partly from increased resistance to venous return and not from venodilation or redistribution of blood flow.

The receptor for atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in the rat renal papilla was characterized pharmacologically. After solubilization and irreversible binding with disuccinimidylsuberate, it was shown on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to be made of a single peptide of 125 kDa. The regulation of the renal papillary ANP receptor was studied in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats. DOCA-salt rats had suppressed plasma renin activity and increased plasma ANP concentrations (408 +/- 35 vs. 133 +/- 12 pg/ml in uninephrectomized controls, P less than 0.01). The renal papilla was hypertrophied in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats (93 +/- 1 vs. 52 +/- 1 mg, P less than 0.01). The density of ANP sites in the papilla was significantly higher in DOCA-salt rats (141 +/- 31 fmol/papilla) than in controls (34 +/- 8 fmol/papilla, P less than 0.01). Affinity of sites in DOCA-salt rats and controls was similar. The production of guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) in renal papilla in response to ANP was significantly higher in DOCA-salt rats. In contrast to the renal papillary ANP receptor, acid-washed vascular and glomerular ANP sites were significantly decreased in density in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. In blood vessels and glomeruli, both the high- and low-molecular mass receptor (as detected on SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions) was proportionately decreased in density in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. The present results suggest that an increased number of ANP receptors and exaggerated cGMP response to ANP in the renal papilla may underlie the increased natriuretic responsiveness of the kidney to ANP in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.

Atrial Natriuretic

Chronic intravenous infusions of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) have been shown to lower mean arterial pressure (MAP) in both normal and hypertensive animals. However, the importance of the renal actions of ANP in mediating this hypotension is unknown. This study was designed to determine whether physiological or pathophysiological increases in intrarenal ANP levels influence long-term control of arterial pressure. ANP was infused into the renal artery of seven conscious, uninephrectomized, chronically instrumented dogs at 1, 2, and 4 ng.kg-1.min-1 for 7 days at each dose, followed by a recovery period. Then ANP was infused intravenously following the same protocol. MAP decreased from 88 +/- 3 to 78 +/- 3 mmHg during intrarenal infusion of 1 ng.kg-1.min-1 ANP; increasing the ANP infusion rate did not result in a further reduction in MAP. Systemic arterial plasma ANP concentration did not change from control (15 +/- 5 pg/ml) during 1 or 2 ng.kg-1.min-1 intrarenal ANP infusion but increased slightly during 4 ng.kg-1.min-1 intrarenal ANP infusion, averaging 53 +/- 11 pg/ml. Renal arterial plasma ANP concentrations were calculated to increase to approximately 120 +/- 5, 248 +/- 11, and 484 +/- 22 pg/ml during 1, 2, and 4 ng.kg-1.min-1 intrarenal ANP infusion, respectively. Intravenous ANP infusion did not alter MAP at 1 ng.kg-1.min-1, but MAP was slightly lower than control during 2 and 4 ng.kg-1.min-1 ANP infusion and remained below control during the postinfusion period.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
