Mechanism of Increased Renin Release in the Adrenalectomized Rat: Adrenal Insufficiency and Renin

We have previously suggested that inhibition of renin release by sodium chloride is related to absorptive chloride transport in the loop of Henle. Infusion of sodium chloride fails to inhibit renin release in the adrenalectomized (Adx) rat, and dexamethasone restores renin responsive-ness to sodium...

Zusammenfassung:We have previously suggested that inhibition of renin release by sodium chloride is related to absorptive chloride transport in the loop of Henle. Infusion of sodium chloride fails to inhibit renin release in the adrenalectomized (Adx) rat, and dexamethasone restores renin responsive-ness to sodium chloride. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between loop function (urinary diluting and concentration capacity) and plasma renin concentration (PRC) in the Adx rat. After hypotonic sodium chloride infusion, free water clearance (CH2OH^,) of Adx rats (0.56 ml/hr/100 g ± 0.17 SE) was decreased (p
