Connexin43-dependent mechanism modulates renin secretion and hypertension.
To investigate the function of Cx43 during hypertension, we studied the mouse line Cx43KI32 (KI32), in which the coding region of Cx32 replaces that of Cx43. Within the kidneys of homozygous KI32 mice, Cx32 was expressed in cortical and medullary tubules, as well as in some extra- and intraglomerular vessels, i.e., at sites where Cx32 and Cx43 are found in WT mice. Under such conditions, renin ...
متن کاملRole of prostanoids in renin-dependent and renin-independent hypertension.
We investigated the role of prostanoid-mediated pressor mechanisms in setting the level of blood pressure in renin-dependent and renin-independent models of hypertension in unanesthetized rats. Intravenous administration of a blocker of thromboxane A2/prostaglandin endoperoxide receptors, SQ29548 (2 mg/kg bolus injection plus 2 mg/kg/hr for 3 hours), reduced from 162 +/- 4 to 144 +/- 5 mm Hg (p...
متن کاملATP-dependent mechanism for coordination of intercellular Ca2+ signaling and renin secretion in rat juxtaglomerular cells.
A change in intracellular Ca2+ is considered to be the common final signaling pathway through which renin secretion is governed. Therefore, information relating to the generation, control, and processing of Ca2+ signaling in juxtaglomerular cells (JG) will be critical for understanding JG cell behavior. In this study, we investigated the means by which JG cells harmonize their intracellular Ca2...

متن کاملNatriuretic peptides buffer renin-dependent hypertension.
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and cardiac natriuretic peptides [atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)] are opposing control mechanisms for arterial blood pressure. Accordingly, an inverse relationship between plasma renin concentration (PRC) and ANP exists in most circumstances. However, PRC and ANP levels are both elevated in renovascular hypertension...
