The existence of urinary excretion rhythms in dogs, which is a matter of controversy, was investigated under strictly controlled intake and environmental conditions. In seven conscious dogs, 14.5 mmol Na, 3.55 mmol K, and 91 ml H2O.kg body wt-1.24 h-1 were either administered with food at 8:30 A.M. or were continuously infused at 2 consecutive days. During these 3 days, automatized 20-min urine collections, mean arterial blood pressure (MABP), and heart rate (HR) recordings were performed without disturbing the dogs. Fundamental and partial periodicities, the noise component of urinary sodium excretion (UNaV), MABP, and HR were analyzed using a method derived from Fourier and Cosinor analysis. Oral intake (OI) leads to powerful 24-h periodicities in all dogs and seems to synchronize UNaV. UNaV on OI peaked between 1 and 3 P.M. Under the infusion regimen, signs of nonstationary rhythms and desynchronization predominated. UNaV under the infusion regimen could be separated into two components: a rather constant component continuously excreted and superimposed to this an oscillating component. No direct coupling between UNaV and MABP periodicities could be demonstrated. On OI, an increase in HR seems to advance the peak UNaV in the postprandial period. HR and MABP signals were both superimposed with noise. We conclude that UNaV rhythms are present in dogs. They are considerably more pronounced on OI.

In this laboratory, dogs acutely saline-loaded to 7–8% body weight and treated with large doses of antidiuretic hormone and deoxycorticosterone acetate will excrete on the average 400–700 μequiv/min of sodium. We have been able to study five dogs, similarly treated, which for no apparent cause showed a trivial natriuretic response following comparable volume expansion. Postexpansion sodium excretion varied from 30 to 150 μequiv/min. Glomerular filtration rate and arterial blood pressure remained constant, but in each case p-aminohippurate clearance rate (CPAH) fell in response to acute saline loading. Renal vasodilatation with acetylcholine and elevation of perfusion pressure with noradrenaline reversed the sodium retention. Fractional reabsorption in the proximal tubule was normal, and the loop of Henle appeared to be the major nephron site responsible for the augmented sodium reabsorption. Constancy of arterial blood pressure, fall in CPAH, and response to altered intrarenal hemodynamics seem to characterize these saline-loaded dogs with minimal sodium excretion as a unique population.

.—Saline was infused intravenously for 90 min to normal, sodium-replete conscious dogs at three different rates (6, 20, and 30 μmol ⋅ kg− 1 ⋅ min− 1) as hypertonic solutions (HyperLoad-6, HyperLoad-20, and HyperLoad-30, respectively) or as isotonic solutions (IsoLoad-6, IsoLoad-20, and IsoLoad-30, respectively). Mean arterial blood pressure did not change with any infusion of 6 or 20 μmol ⋅ kg− 1 ⋅ min− 1. During HyperLoad-6, plasma vasopressin increased by 30%, although the increase in plasma osmolality (1.0 mosmol/kg) was insignificant. During HyperLoad-20, plasma ANG II decreased from 14 ± 2 to 7 ± 2 pg/ml and sodium excretion increased markedly (2.3 ± 0.8 to 19 ± 8 μmol/min), whereas glomerular filtration rate (GFR) remained constant. IsoLoad-20 decreased plasma ANG II similarly (13 ± 3 to 7 ± 1 pg/ml) concomitant with an increase in GFR and a smaller increase in sodium excretion (1.9 ± 1.0 to 11 ± 6 μmol/min). HyperLoad-30 and IsoLoad-30 increased mean arterial blood pressure by 6–7 mmHg and decreased plasma ANG II to ∼6 pg/ml, whereas sodium excretion increased to ∼60 μmol/min. The data demonstrate that, during slow sodium loading, the rate of excretion of sodium may increase 10-fold without changes in mean arterial blood pressure and GFR and suggest that the increase may be mediated by a decrease in plasma ANG II. Furthermore, the vasopressin system may respond to changes in plasma osmolality undetectable by conventional osmometry.

Renin concentrations of renal venous plasma were indirectly measured by bio-assaying the pressor activity produced by plasma incubation under standardized conditions. Pressor activity was detectable in 85% of control dogs, was reciprocally related to sodium excretion, but did not correlate with arterial blood pressure. Reduction of mean renal arterial pressure to 90 mm Hg by an aortic clamp decreased sodium excretion and produced sustained increases in renin secretion and arterial blood pressure proximal to the clamp. Release of the aortic clamp resulted in gradual return of these variables toward control values. Induction of diuresis (osmotic diuretics, chlorothiazide, or acetazolamide) prior to aortic clamping minimized or completely prevented the usual clamp-induced rises in renin secretion and proximal blood pressure. Induction of diuresis during aortic clamping returned the elevated renin secretion and proximal blood pressure toward control values. These effects of diuretics could not be explained by changes in renal hemodynamics or plasma composition. Elevation of ureteral pressure in nondiuretic dogs also increased renin secretion and arterial blood pressure. We conclude that renin secretion is not controlled by blood pressure, per se, or intrarenal pressure, but by the flow or composition of intratubular fluid, probably at the level of the macula densa.
