To test the hypothesis that the pituitary gland has a role in modulating the release of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) from atrial myocytes, we applied different stimuli of both acute and chronic nature to rats 8-10 days after hypophysectomy (Hypx). Acute rapid cardiac pacing at a rate of 500 beats/min in anesthetized rats caused a marked increase in plasma levels of ANP (from 76 +/- 7 to 237 +/- 60 pg/ml, P less than 0.05) despite a marked decrease of blood pressure. This response was similar to that of paced control rats, but because the basal levels were lower in Hypx rats, the relative increase in ANP was larger in the experimental group. Studies were also done in a chronic model of high-output congestive heart failure produced by an aortocaval fistula in hydrocortisone-supplemented rats. Although these rats had low blood pressure 2-3 days after surgery, there were marked increases in right atrial pressures associated with high plasma levels of ANP (194 +/- 24 pg/ml) that were not significantly different from controls (221 +/- 26 pg/ml, P greater than 0.05). These results indicate that the role of the pituitary in ANP release is indirect, and no specific hypophyseal factor is required for this response. Hemodynamic parameters are the important determinants of ANP secretion, even in hypophysectomized rats.
