Sodium sensitive sites in the gastrointestinal tract stimulate natriuresis
… sodium was notably more significant than the natriuresis following intravenous infusion of the same sodium load, suggesting to the authors that the response was initiated by a gastric sodium sensor. There is no evidence to support the sodium sensor described by Lennane and colleagues is …

Valor de la natriuresis diaria y su fraccionamiento como marcador de daño orgánico y en el control de la población hipertensa en atención primaria
… a lo largo de un día mediante la obtención de la natriuresis de 24 horas, cuestión que tampoco es fácil realizar en la práctica diaria y no está exenta de limitaciones en nuestros pacientes. Debido a estas dificultades, se han obtenido modelos matemáticos para estimar esta natriuresis diaria a …

Role of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptors in Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
… are upreguated in obese animal and contribute to natriuresis. However, the role of AT2 receptors in oxidative stress and inflammation is not well studied. On the other hand, oxidative stress can positively influence sodium retention independently. However the existence of possible cross-talk …

Metolazone in Diuretic Refractory Ascites
… them to a diuretic sensitive stage and promote natriuresis. We conducted a pilot study to examine the efficacy of metolazone in diuretic refractory ascites. Methods: Patients with refractory ascites were randomized to two groups. Group 1 received 10 mg of metolazone and Group 2 received 80 mg of …

The role played by angiotensin (1-7) in the regulation of renal haemodynamics and excretory function in anesthetized rats
… infusion of Ang (1-7) caused a diuresis and natriuresis that was proportional to the degree of activation of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS). This raised the question as why the magnitude of this diuresis and natriuresis was compromised in rats receiving a high sodium diet …

Mechanisms of Regulation of Proximal Tubule Sodium Transporters in Obesity-Induced Hypertension
… rats is characterized by the impaired pressure-natriuresis and diuresis that can be explained by the increased activity of proximal tubule sodium transporters.</p> <p>Previous results from our lab determined that peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ) has reduced expression and …

The Acute And Chronic Effects Of Resveratrol On Renal Function And Blood Pressure
… rats. Resveratrol infusion produced significant natriuresis at all doses, independent of hemodynamic responses, suggesting it may have a direct effect on renal tubular sodium handling independent of perfusion pressure, renal blood flow, or changes in renal vascular resistance. We hypothesized …

Superoxide via Sp3 Transcription Factor Up-Regulates Renal AT1 Receptor Function and Contributes to Hypertension
… treated rats produced increased diuresis and natriuresis compared to controls. Tempol in DETC treated rats attenuated candesartan-induced increased diuresis and natriuresis. Importantly, lysine acetylation of Sp3 protein, an index of Sp3 activation, was significantly higher in DETC treated …

The role of renal afferent signalling in chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced sympathoexcitation and hypertension
… following CIH exposure. However, diuresis and natriuresis during VE were attenuated in CIH-exposed rats despite preservation of the progressive decrease in RSNA during VE, suggesting that altered kidney excretory function in CIH was independent of neural control. The increase in atrial …

An Investigation into Neuroendocrine Regulators of Excretory Organs in the Adult Disease-Vector Mosquito, Aedes aegypti
… released into the female haemolymph to promote natriuresis and diuresis while CAPA peptides are released shortly after, hindering the effects of DH31. Lastly, examination of ITP and ITP-L neuropeptides in A. aegypti indicated enrichment of ITP in the brain and ITP-L in the abdominal ganglia. …

Neural mechanisms promoting G-alpha-i2 protein dependent salt sensitive hypertension in the Sprague-Dawley rat
… sodium intake to facilitate sympathoinhibition, natriuresis, and normotension. In contrast, in the Dahl Salt Sensitive (DSS) rat, and in salt resistant rats in which this protein is experimentally downregulated, our laboratory has identified the development of renal nerve-dependent …

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors in the treatment of urinary diseases and their effects on renal functions: clinical studies
… to prostaglandins, nitric oxide (NO) causes natriuresis and diuresis, decreases antidiuretic hormone and relaxes trigone and urethra. We hypothesized that NO may play a role in the primary enuresis. Urinary nitrite, the end product of NO, was measured in enuretics before and after treatment …
