Response of multiunit renal afferent nerve activity (ARNA) and renal blood flow (RBF) as percentage of control levels during progressive reductions in renal perfusion pressure (ABP) in anesthetized Sprague‐Dawley rats. Renal blood flow was measured with pulsed Doppler ultrasonic flowmeter; renal perfusion pressure was reduced by tightening an aortic snare. Closed circles, measurements before cyclooxygenase treatment; open circles, measurements made after inhibition of prostanoid production by cyclooxygenase inhibition with indomethacin.

Schematic of intracellular events that result from stimulation of α1‐adrenoceptors. PLC, phospholipase C; GP, unknown guanine nucleotide‐binding regulatory protein that is activated by receptor occupancy and that stimulates phospholipase C; PIP2, phosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate; IP3, inositol‐1,4,5‐trisphosphate; IP4, inositol‐1,3,4,5‐tetrakisphosphate; E.R., endoplasmic reticulum; plus sign, stimulatory effect. Stimulation of α1‐adrenoceptors may activate other G proteins and cause release of second messengers other than IP3 and diacylglycerol.

Figure 5. Figure 5.

Effects of several α‐adrenergic agonists on renal blood flow in 27 anesthetized rats. Composite dose‐response curves were determined from individual dose‐response curves. Increasing dosages of agonists were given directly into renal artery. Changes in renal blood flow were measured with a Doppler flowmeter. Results indicate decrease of renal blood flow from baseline values as function of agonist dosage. Number of individual dose‐response curves and receptor specificity for each agonist are indicated. Selective α2‐adrenoceptor agonists are neither potent nor efficacious renal vasoconstrictors in anesthetized rats, whereas α1‐adrenoceptor agonists can produce a transient cessation of renal blood flow.

Figure 6. Figure 6.

Percent decrease of renal blood flow from baseline values produced by increasing dosages of norepinephrine (NE), phenylephrine (PHE), and guanabenz (GBZ) in five conscious, unrestrained chronically instrumented rats. Changes in renal blood flow were measured with a Doppler flowmeter. Composite dose‐response curves were determined by giving 4–12 doses of agonists as bolus into renal artery. Solid lines, average baseline dose‐response curves; dashed lines, average curves obtained in presence of α2‐adrenoceptor antagonist rauwolscine (RAUW). Symbols in each curve indicate agonist dosage that produces decreases in renal blood flow of 15% and 75%.

Effects of direct renal nerve stimulation on fluid reabsorption along proximal tubule of anesthetized rats with expansion of extracellular fluid volume. Measurements of fluid to plasma inulin concentration ratios (F/P) in late proximal tubule were made in absence of stimulation (C1, C2) and in presence of stimulation at 1 (S1) and 2 (S2) Hz. Each point is mean of two to four measurements. Each line represents one animal. Values are means ± S.E.

Yohimbine (α2‐adrenoceptor antagonist) was combined with epinephrine during a fourth experimental period to demonstrate that epinephrine effect was indeed mediated by stimulation of α2‐adrenoceptors. Each column represents data from at least five kidneys. Observations were made 20 min after starting infusions of vasopressin, arachidonic acid, or placebo.
