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.

To examine the mechanism by which atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) decreases cardiac output, we studied changes in the heart, peripheral circulation, and blood flow distribution in eight dogs. ANP was given as a bolus (3.0 micrograms/kg) followed by an infusion of 0.3 microgram.kg-1.min-1. ANP did not change heart rate, total peripheral vascular resistance, and the first derivative of left ventricular pressure but decreased mean aortic pressure from 91 +/- 4 to 76 +/- 3 mmHg (P less than 0.001) and cardiac output from 153 +/- 15 to 130 +/- 9 ml.kg-1.min-1 (P less than 0.02). Right atrial pressure and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure also decreased. Mean circulatory filling pressure decreased from 7.1 +/- 0.3 to 6.0 +/- 0.3 mmHg (P less than 0.001), but venous compliance and unstressed vascular volume did not change. Resistance to venous return increased from 0.056 +/- 0.008 to 0.063 +/- 0.010 mmHg.ml-1.kg.min (P less than 0.05). Arterial compliance increased from 0.060 +/- 0.003 to 0.072 +/- 0.004 ml.mmHg-1.kg-1 (P less than 0.02). Total blood volume and central blood volume decreased from 82.2 +/- 3.1 to 76.2 +/- 4.6 and from 19.8 +/- 0.8 to 17.6 +/- 0.6 ml/kg (P less than 0.02), respectively. Blood flow increased to the kidneys. We conclude that ANP decreases cardiac output by decreasing total blood volume. This results in a lower operating pressure and volume in the venous capacitance system with no significant venodilating effects. Cardiac factors and a redistribution of flow to the splanchnic organs are not important mechanisms to explain the decrease in cardiac output with ANP.

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) may decrease cardiac output (CO) by lowering circulating blood volume (BV) or by altering the vasculature in a manner that would decrease venous return. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of decreased BV in mediating the decrease in CO during acute infusion of ANP. BV was measured by dilution of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells in seven trained conscious splenectomized dogs studied after unilateral (UNX) and total (TNX) nephrectomy. BV, hematocrit (Hct), CO, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and total peripheral resistance (TPR) were determined during a 90-min control period and 270 min of infusion of ANP (20 ng.kg-1.min-1 iv). In UNX dogs, ANP decreased BV from 60.9 +/- 1.4 to 58.6 +/- 1.4 ml/kg and increased Hct from 39.3 +/- 1.8% to 41.1 +/- 1.8% (P less than 0.05). MAP was not changed and CO fell to a low that was 86 +/- 2% of control (P less than 0.05) 240 min after starting ANP. TPR increased significantly during ANP infusion. All variables returned to control after ANP was stopped. In the same dogs studied 24 h after TNX, MAP averaged 111 +/- 5 mmHg during control and did not change during ANP infusion. CO fell to a low of 82 +/- 3% of control (P less than 0.05) after 120 min of infusion and remained reduced until after the ANP was stopped.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Halothane Anesthesia

The cardiovascular effects of moxibustion at Jen Chung (Go-26) in 10 dogs under halothane anesthesia were compared to 5 dogs under halothane anesthesia without moxibustion and 5 dogs under halothane anesthesia in which moxibustion was effected at a neutral or non-acupuncture site. Cardiac output, stroke volume, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, total peripheral resistance, pH, PaCO2, PaO2 and base deficit were measured over a two-hour period. A significant increase in cardiac output and stroke volume and a significant decrease in the total peripheral resistance were observed in the group which was stimulated by moxibustion at Jen Chun (Go-26). Heart rate, mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure were significantly increase during the early part of the two-hour period in the same group. The cardiovascular effects of moxibustion at Jen Chung (Go-26) which were observed at the end of the two hours were also present in two dogs in which measurements were continued for two additional hours.

Baroreflex regulation of cardiac output is determined by the performance of the heart as well as the available blood flow returning to the heart (i.e., venous return). We hypothesized that a decrease in arterial compliance (Ca) would affect carotid baroreflex control of cardiac output by altering the slope of the venous return curve (VR curve). Baroreflex control of systemic arterial pressure (Pa), central venous pressure (Pv), heart rate, cardiac output (CO), and peripheral vascular resistance ( R) were determined during bilateral carotid occlusion (BCO) in spontaneously hypertensive (hypertensive, HT) and Sprague-Dawley (normotensive, NT) rats. Ca was determined from the rate of arterial pressure decay when CO was transiently stopped, and the VR curve was obtained during graded inflation of a vascular balloon positioned in the right atrium. The inverse slope of the VR curve was used as an index of the resistance to venous return (RVR). The baseline slope of the VR curve was −50.5 ± 3.3 vs. −35.5 ± 2.6 ml ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1 ⋅ mmHg−1in NT vs. HT, respectively ( P < 0.05). Control values of Pa (96 ± 5 vs. 124 ± 8 mmHg) and R[0.43 ± 0.04 vs. 0.80 ± 0.07 peripheral resistance units (PRU)] were reduced in NT, whereas Ca (0.062 ± 0010 vs. 0.036 ± 0.003 ml ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ mmHg−1) was elevated in NT vs. HT, respectively ( P < 0.05). Analysis of the pressure dependence of Ca demonstrated that Ca was a nonlinear function of Pa, and the exponential decay constant for the Ca-Parelationship was reduced in HT (0.0055 ± 0.0012 vs. 0.0012 ± 0.0002 min, NT vs. HT, P < 0.05). Baroreflex activation by BCO significantly increased Pa(ΔPa, 20 ± 4 vs. 28 ± 3 mmHg) and R(Δ R, 0.16 ± 0.04 vs. 0.24 ± 0.06 PRU) in NT vs. HT, respectively. However, BCO significantly decreased CO in NT but not HT (ΔCO, −24 ± 5 vs. −4 ± 6 ml ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1, P < 0.05). In NT, RVR was increased 39 ± 9% during BCO ( P < 0.05), whereas RVR increased 8 ± 3% in HT ( P = NS). From these findings, we conclude that the difference in baroreflex control of CO is mediated, in part, by the reduction in Ca, which minimized the baroreflex-evoked increase in RVR.

Venous Resistance

In dogs with cardiovascular reflexes completely blocked by total spinal anesthesia, the total peripheral resistance was increased five- or more fold in two ways: first, by injecting small plastic microspheres into the arteries, thereby increasing the arterial resistance, and, second, by inflating pneumatic cuffs around the major veins, thereby increasing venous resistance. A small increase in venous resistance decreased cardiac output eight times as much as an increase in arterial resistance of similar magnitude. This difference was caused principally by a) a marked rise in systemic arterial pressure when arterial resistance was increased; this maintained the cardiac output at almost normal levels and b) a fall in systemic arterial pressure when venous resistance was increased; this promoted even more fall in cardiac output than increased total peripheral resistance alone would have caused.

Atrial Natriuretic

Partially purified low (LMW) and high-(HMW) molecular-weight atrial natriuretic extracts were administered intravenously (540 micrograms protein/kg) to conscious Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats. Both LMW and HMW atrial natriuretic extracts produced an immediate decrease in mean arterial pressure that reached maximum within 5 min and returned to control levels within 30 min. In both strains, cardiac output decreased approximately 14% following administration of LMW. Total peripheral resistance increased only in SHR. Organ blood flow was significantly decreased to skin, brain, heart, kidneys, and splanchnic organs of WKY and to skin, muscle, heart, and splanchnic organs of SHR following administration of LMW. Corresponding increases in organ vascular resistance index were observed in brain, heart, and splanchnic organs of WKY and in skin, heart, and splanchnic organs of SHR. To some extent, the changes in organ blood flow may be a reflection of the decrease in cardiac output induced by LMW. After administration of HMW, no significant changes were observed in cardiac output or total peripheral resistance, although they tended to decrease. Organ vascular resistance was decreased to skin, muscle, brain, and splanchnic organs of SHR. Little difference was observed between WKY and SHR responses to atrial natriuretic extracts. These data indicate that atrial natriuretic extracts have an effect on systemic and regional hemodynamics in conscious rats that differs markedly from those of vasodilators such as nitroglycerin or hydralazine.

Atrial Natriuretic

Heart failure is characterized by a blunted natriuretic and diuretic response to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). To investigate this, a rat model of compensated high-output heart failure was used to determine whether glomerular response to ANP differs in animals with high cardiac output compared with control animals. An aortocaval (AC) fistula was made below the level of the renal arteries in male Sprague-Dawley rats. At 6 wk, one group of AC fistula (N = 6) and control rats (N = 6) was injected with radiolabeled microspheres for determination of hemodynamic parameters, including cardiac output, renal blood flow, and vascular resistance. Rats with AC fistulas had significant changes in cardiac output (218 +/- 17 versus 57 +/- 11 mL/min, P < or = 0.0001), renal blood flow (3.4 +/-0.7 versus 8.4 +/- 1.9 mL/min Left, P < or = 0.05; 3.0 +/- 0.4 versus 7.2 +/- 1.9 mL/min Right, P < or = 0.05), and total vascular resistance (0.6 +/- 0.1 versus 2.7 +/- 0.4 mm Hg/mL per min, P < 0.001) compared with control animals, respectively. In another group of animals, after 6 wk, glomeruli were isolated from kidneys. Extracellular (EC) and intracellular (IC) cGMP was measured as an indication of glomerular response to ANP. Early glomerular response to ANP (10(-8)mol/L) showed a similar acute 13- to 18-fold rise in IC cGMP after 30 sec exposure to ANP (P < or = 0.0001 versus no ANP; N = 4 AC fistula rats and N = 4 control rats). During 1-h incubations with ANP, glomerular response was characterized by a five- to sevenfold increase in EC cGMP. However, glomeruli of AC fistula rats produced significantly less EC cGMP than did those of control animals (21.3 +/- 2.5 versus 44 +/- 4.9 fMol cGMP/2000 glomeruli, P < = 0.005; N = 5 AC fistula rats and N = 5 control rats, respectively). Probenecid-sensitive transport of EC cGMP between AC fistula and control rats (86% decrease versus 82% decrease) was similar. However, glomeruli from AC fistula animals had significantly less phosphodiesterase activity compared with control animals (3.6 +/- 0.4 versus 5.4 +/- 0.7 nMol cGMP/mg protein per min, P < or = 0.01; N = 4 AC fistula rats and N = 5 control rats, respectively). It is speculated that reduced glomerular generation of cGMP in response to ANP contributes to sodium retention in heart failure, but may be compensated for in part by decreased phosphodiesterase-mediated hydrolysis of cGMP.
