Sodium Homeostasis and Hormonal Responses During Dopaminergic Blockade in Normal Humans

Zusammenfassung:Six normal subjects were submitted to 2 h water immersion (WI) with and without pharmacological dopaminergic (DA) blockade with metoclopramide (MCP). Urinary sodium excretion showed a marked increase during WI alone while it was blunted during WI plus DA blockade. Plasma aldosterone was significantly suppressed by WI alone but remained unchanged during WI plus MCP. Plasma atrial natriuretic factor showed similar augmentation during WI alone and during WI plus MCP. The reduced sodium and 6-keto-PGFlα excretion, observed during WI plus MCP administration, suggests that dopamine might induce prostacyclin synthesis in the kidney during WI.
