The role of angiotensin II in the development of hypertension and in the maintenance of glomerular filtration rate during 48 hours of renal artery stenosis in conscious dogs.
Selig SE, Anderson WP, Korner PI, Casley DJ.
The responses to 48 h of renal artery stenosis were compared in uninephrectomized, chronically-instrumented dogs with or without inhibition of angiotensin II (AII) formation by enalapril. Mean arterial pressure rose by an average of 29.9 mmHg (s.e.m. 3.5) in untreated dogs and by 14.5 mmHg (s.e.m. 2.8) in enalapril-treated dogs over the two days of stenosis. Renal artery stenosis reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by 49% (s.e.m. 9) in untreated dogs and by 86% (s.e.m. 8) in enalapril-treated dogs. Compared to untreated dogs, enalapril-treated dogs also had lower renal artery pressure distal to the stenosis, drank less water and had larger rises in plasma K+ following renal artery stenosis. There were no differences in renal blood flow or urinary Na+ excretion in the two groups of dogs. Thus blockade of AII production did not prevent hypertension occurring in response to renal artery stenosis, but the rise in blood pressure was only about half that which occurred in normal dogs and GFR was much more severely reduced.

Mechanism of deterioration in renal function in patients with renovascular hypertension treated with enalapril.
Bender W, La France N, Walker WG.
Azotemia produced by converting enzyme inhibition in renovascular hypertension was studied in six patients by measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF). Patients with unilateral renovascular hypertension lowered GFR acutely to 40% of control values at 4 hours, but after 4 days it only returned to 75% of control even though ERPF exceeded control values. Calculated filtration fraction (GFR/ERPF) decreased from 0.31 to 0.19 in 4 hours (p less than 0.05) and remained at 0.20 after 4 days of treatment despite increases in GFR and ERPF. In bilateral renovascular hypertension, neither the decreased GFR nor lowered ERPF induced by enalapril showed any tendency to return toward normal with continued treatment. These data are consistent with selective glomerular efferent arteriolar dilation in response to enalapril and suggest that angiotensin converting-enzyme inhibition interferes with the autoregulatory capacity of the kidney in the presence of severe renovascular hypertension.

Mechanisms of rapid growth in the neonatal pig heart.

During the first 2 weeks of life the left ventricular free wall of the neonatal pig heart grows rapidly. The mass of the left ventricular free wall (LVFW) increased from 2.22 +/- 0.10 g to 9.62 +/- 1.01 g while the right ventricular free wall (RVFW) increased from 2.03 +/- 0.24 g to 3.56 +/- 0.41 g from birth to 14 days of age. During the same period, the cellular volume of myocytes from the LVFW increased from 1075 microns3 to 3688 microns3 while myocytes from the RVFW increased in volume from 1511 microns3 to 2454 microns3. The number of RVFW myocytes did not change during the first 2 weeks of life, while the number of LVFW myocytes increased 28%. Myocytes from both ventricles were approximately 90% mononuclear from birth to 4-5 days of age. By 14 days, 67% of LVFW myocytes and 53% of RVFW myocytes were multinucleated. When growth of the heart was restrained by treatment of the piglet with enalapril maleate, the LVFW mass was reduced by 24% over 2 weeks compared to hearts from untreated piglets and was accounted for by a reduction in myocyte volume. Enalapril treatment did not alter the number of myocytes in either the LVFW or RVFW as compared to hearts from untreated piglets. After 14 days of enalapril treatment, the percentage of multinucleated cells was reduced in the LVFW and unchanged in the RVFW as compared to hearts from untreated piglets.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
