    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An 26 Kaninchen wurde der individuelle Verlauf des experimentellen akuten Nierenversagens (ANV) verfolgt und Änderungen der Funktion und Plasmareninaktivität den lichtmikroskopischen morphologischen Schädigungen gegenübergestellt. Trotz identischer auslösender Noxe zeigte der Einzelverlauf starke Variationen der Funktionseinschränkung, der Plasmareninaktivität und histologischer Veränderungen. Zwischen überlebenden (Gruppe A,n = 10) und urämisch sterbenden Tieren (Gruppe B,n = 16) bestand schon vom 1. postischämischen Tag an ein signifikanter Unterschied der Plasmaharnstoffkonzentration und Plasmareninaktivität (P 〈 0,01). Beide Parameter zeigten im weiteren Verlauf trotz erheblicher individueller Streuung ein für jede Gruppe charakteristisches Verhalten. Dagegen waren die morphologischen Schädigungen außerordentlich variabel und erlaubten keine Korrelation zur Einschränkung der Nierenfunktion oder dem Ausmaß der Aktivitätssteigerung des systemischen Renins.
    Notes: Summary The individual course of experimental acute renal failure (ARF) was investigated in 26 rabbits with respect to changes of renal function, plasma renin activity (PRA), and morphology. Although the cause of ARF (i.e. renal ischemia) was identical in all animals the individual course was characterized by a great variability of functional disturbance, alterations of PRA, and the degree of histological impairment. However, already on the first postischemic day a significant difference of both plasma urea concentration and plasma renin activity between group A (surviving,n = 10) and group B (non-surviving animals,n = 16) could be found, a difference that increased in significance during subsequent days of observation. In contrast the morphology was quite variabel and the degree of histological impairment could not be correlated with chance of survival, renal function, and elevation of PRA, respectively.

    Notes: Abstract To further clarify the mechanism mediating the reduction of nephron filtration rate in response to an increase of loop of Henle flow rate we have studied the effect of prostaglandin inhibition on tubuloglomerular feedback in rats. Following inravenous administration of 2 or 5 mg/kg indomethacin feedback responses expressed as the percent reduction of early proximal flow rate (EPFR) during flow elevation from 0–40 nl/min decreased from control values of −54.3±4.3% (mean ± S.E.) and −39.5±3.9% to −27.9±2.8% (P〈0.001) and −5.0±4.9% (P〈0.001) respectively. A significant reduction in the feedback response was also seen following intravenous administration of 2 or 5 mg/kg Ro 20-5720 (−28.8±5.8% and −7.8±3.8% respectively), 10 mg/kg meclofenamate (−15±4%), and 2 mg/kg eicosa-5,8,11,14-tetraynoic acid (−16.2±4.8%). In contrast to control animals injection of 5 mg/kg indomethacin had no effect on the feedback response in rats kept on a low salt diet. After applying a single dose of 5 mg/kg indomethacin or Ro 20-5720 feedback responses were reduced to −5.4±4.3% and −3.0±4.36% in the period 0–80 min, but were normal in the period 81–160 min after injection (−36.1±2.83% and −44.3±2.82% respectively). A dose dependent inhibition of the feedback response was also noted when indomethacin was applied intraluminally with full inhibition being established at a concentration of 0.5 mM. Urinary excretion rates of PGE2 and PGF2α fell from control values of 286.1±73.7 and 143.5±25.9 pg/min to 31.2±9.9 and 23.6±9 pg/min following 2 mg/kg indomethacin and to 36.8±4.4 and 8.9±1.9 pg/min following 5 mg/kg Ro 20-5720. Reduction of PG excretion was not reversible during the time of the experiment. Our results demonstrate a consistent decrease of tubuloglomerular feedback responses during inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis.

    Notes: Abstract The relationships between urinary prostaglandins (PGs)E2 and F2α and the postnatal development of blood pressure and renal concentrating capacity were investigated in 14 pre-term and 32 full term healthy infants. Mean PGE2 and PGF2α excretion was 18.9 and 10.1 ng/h/1.73 m2, respectively, in pre-term infants. In full term infants mean urinary PGE2 was signifincantly lower (13.4 ng/h/1.73 m2) and PGF2α significantly higher (22.2 ng/h/1.73 m2). The decrease of the PGE2/PGF2α ratio (P〈0.001) was accompanied by an increase in blood pressure. High PGE2 levels in pre-term infants were inversely correlated with urinary cAMP excretion. A decreasing PGE2/PGF2α ratio in full term infants was associated with increasing urinary osmolality. After intranasal administration of antidiuretic hormone (DDAVP) in 8 full term infants the increase in urinary osmolality and cAMP excretion was accompanied by a drop in PGE2 excretion to less than half the basal values. These findings suggests that the postnatal changes in urinary PG excretion are associated with a concomittant increase in blood pressure and in the concentrating capacity of the neonatal kidney.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 8 Tage nach einseitiger Nephrektomie und subkutaner Autotransplantation von renomedullärem Gewebe wurde an 18 Kaninchen durch temporäre Ischämie der Restniere ein akutes Nierenversagen induziert. In der Kontrollgruppe (n=18) ohne Autotransplantat betrug die Mortalität im postischämischen Verlauf 100%, in der Gruppe der transplantierten Tiere nur 50%. — Gegenüber der Kontrollgruppe zeigten die überlebenden transplantierten Tiere im postischämischen Verlauf eine signifikant niedrigere Plasmaharnstoffkonzentration (p〈0,005) und signifikant niedrigere Plasmareninwerte, die auch gegenüber den Ausgangswerten signifikant erniedrigt waren (p〈0,005). Diese Effekte sprechen dafür, daß in den interstitiellen Zellen der renomedullären Autotransplantate hormonale Substanzen gebildet werden, die gegen ein experimentell ausgelöstes akutes Nierenversagen eine deutlich protektive Wirkung aufweisen. Die erniedrigten Plasmareninaktivitäten können als Folge einer Inhibierung des zirkulierenden und/oder intrarenalen Renins durch im Transplantat gebildete Lipide gedeutet werden. Die Änderungen in der Natrium- und Wasserausscheidung sprechen für Effekte zirkulierender Prostaglandine.
    Notes: Summary An acute circulatory renal failure (ARF) was induced in 18 rabbits by temporary ischemia of the remaining kidney 8 days after unilateral nephrectomy and subcutaneous autotransplantation of renomedullary tissue.—Mortality in the postischemic course was 50% in treated animals but 100% in the control group (n=18) without autotransplantation. In the postischemic period plasma urea concentration was significantly lower (p〈0.005) in the surviving transplanted animals and excretion of sodium and water significantly higher (p〈0.005) as compared with the control group. Plasma renin values which were significantly lower than those of the control (p〈0.005) had decreased significantly even as compared with the initial values. These results indicate that hormonal substances are produced in interstitial cells of renomedullary autotransplants exerting a distinct protective effect against experimental acute renal failure. Decreased plasma renin activity may point to an inhibition of circulating and/or intrarenal renin by lipids originating from the transplants. Changes in sodium and water excretion indicate effects of circulating prostaglandins.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die renale Prostaglandin (PG)-Ausscheidung und die Stimulierbarkeit der Reninsekretion wurde bei Patienten mit essentieller Hypertonie (n=35) und bei altersgleichen normotensiven Kontrollpersonen (n=22) vergleichend untersucht. Bei den Patienten mit essentieller Hypertonie wurde eine erniedrigte basale Ausscheidung des vasodilatierenden PGE2 (p〈0,02) bei im Normbereich liegender Ausscheidung des vasokonstriktorischen PGF2α im Urin festgestellt. Darüber hinaus stieg innerhalb der ersten 15 min nach i.v.-Gabe von 40 mg Furosemid die PGE2-Ausscheidung bei Patienten mit essentieller Hypertonie signifikant geringer an als bei den Kontrollpersonen (p〈0,001), während der Anstieg der PGF2α-Ausscheidung in beiden Gruppen gleich war. Zum gleichen Zeitpunkt lag der prozentuale Anstieg der Plasmareninaktivität nach Furosemid bei Hypertonikern (167±11 (SEM)) deutlich unter dem Anstieg der Kontrollgruppe (386±46,p〈0,001). Unsere Ergebnisse unterstützen die Annahme, daß eine erniedrigte renal-kortikale, (vaskuläre?) Synthese vasodilatierender Prostaglandine die Ursache sowohl für die verminderte Stimulierbarkeit der Reninsekretion als auch für den gesteigerten renalen Gefäßwiderstand bei essentieller Hypertonie ist.
    Notes: Summary Under basal conditions prostaglandin (PG) E2-excretion was significantly lower in 35 patients with essential hypertension studied than in 22 age-and sex-matched controls (p〈0.02). PGF2α-excretion was similar in both groups. Within the first 15 minutes after furosemide i.v., PGE2-excretion rose substantially less in the patients than in the controls (p〈0.001), while the increase in PGF2α-excretion was not different for both groups. The coincident rise of plasma renin activity was significantly lower in the hypertensive (167%±11, SEM) than in the normotensive (386%±46) group (p〈0.001). Our results support the assumption that a decrease in renal cortical (vascular?) synthesis of vasodilatating PG's may be the cause for both, the diminished secretion of renin and the increase of vascular resistance in the kidney, which are often associated in essential hypertension.
