Various parameters of renal function were studied before, during, and after the infusion of physiological increments of angiotensin II directly into one renal artery of anesthetized dogs. During water diuresis and during antidiuresis induced with exogenous antidiuretic hormone (ADH), angiotensin II consistently reduced UNaV, UKV, and CPAH, and increased the filtration fraction in the infused kidney. Urinary osmolality was increased only in the presence of ADH, while during water diuresis angiotensin II had no apparent effect on urinary osmolality or flow rate. During saline diuresis, a mean increment of angiotensin II concentration of 14 pg/ml was sufficient to significantly reduce UNaV and urinary flow rate. Changes in CCr, CPAH, and filtration fraction did not correlate with changes in sodium excretion, and intracortical distribution of blood flow remained unaltered. These data support the hypothesis that normal circulating levels of angiogensin II play a direct renal role in the control of sodium, potassium, and water homeostasis, and that angiotensin II exerts a direct, stimulatory effect on tubular sodium reabsorption independent of changes in GFR, RPF, filtration fraction, or intracortical distribution of blood flow.

Prevoius studies have suggested that the increase in specific activity of Na-K-ATPase in renal tissue during treatment with glucocorticoids occurred as a result of aconcurrent rise in net tubular reabsorption of sodium. Since recent data have indicated a specific effect of glucocortiocoids on epithelial cells, experiments were performed to determine whether enzyme activity and net sodium reabsorption could be dissociated.Evidence is provided demonstrating that base-line specific activity of Na-K-ATPase in rat renal cortex and outer medulla does not correlate directly with net sodium reabsorption since enzyme activity did not change after a chronic reduction in glomerularfiltration rate and the rate of sodium reabsorption. Further studies showed a markedrise in Na-K-ATPase after 4 days of treatment with methylprednisolone despite a fall in sodium absorption. These results suggest a direct effect of glucocorticoids onrenal Na-K-ATPase and illistrate the difficulty in assigning a transport role tothis enzyme from the correlation of specific activity with rates of net electrolyte transport.

Hypertension is a complex trait that is influenced by both heritable and environmental factors. The search for genes accounting for the susceptibility to hypertension has driven parallel efforts in human research and in research using experimental animals in controlled environmental settings. Evidence from rodent models of genetic hypertension and human Mendelian forms of hypertension and hypotension have yielded mechanistic insights into the pathways that are perturbed in blood pressure homeostasis, most of which converge at the level of renal sodium reabsorption. However, the bridging of evidence from these very diverse approaches to identify mechanisms underlying hypertension susceptibility and the translation of these findings to human populations and public health remain a challenge. Furthermore, findings from genome-wide association studies still require functional validation in experimental models. In this review, we highlight results and implications from key studies in experimental and clinical hypertension to date.
