    Notes: Summary 86Rubidium influx and Na — K-cotransport have been investigated in erythrocytes of mild essential hypertensives and normotensives devoid of familial hypertension. For measurement of cotransport Na-loaded/K-depleted erythrocytes were used while rubidium influx (with and without ouabain) was determined under physiological conditions. Both transport systems were linear in time, the interassay variances in a range of about 10%. The patients with essential hypertension exhibited a decreased rubidium influx compared to the normotensive controls. Ouabain-sensitive fluxes were not significantly different between the two groups, whereas ouabain-resistent rubidium influx was diminished in the group of the patients. Na — K-cotransport was also found to be decreased in essential hypertension. There was no correlation between cotransport and Rb-influx. The results indicate changes in cation fluxes in erythrocytes of essential hypertensives, the Na — K-cotransport being rather more altered than rubidium influx. It is speculated that hypertensive persons with reduced rubidium flux rates may represent a subpopulation of essential hypertension and that their high blood pressure may be additionally influenced by exogeneous factors e.g. enhanced sodium uptake.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of rats contains high angiotensinogen concentrations. When 3500-fold purified renin from human brain was injected into the brain ventricles of rats, angiotensin I concentrations increased from undetectable levels to 147.9±18.8 fMol per ml CSF. In parallel, mean arterial blood pressure increased from 93±2.4 mm Hg to 107±3.7 mm Hg. The increase in blood pressure could be abolished by intraventricular administration of saralasin, a blocker of angiotensin II receptors. Intraventricular injection of cathepsin D had no effect on arterial blood pressure and the angiotensin I concentration in CSF remained below detection limits of the radioimmunoassay. We conclude that brain renin acts on endogenous brain angiotensinogen under physiological in vivo conditions to form angiotensin I. The latter is converted to angiotensin II and leads to biological effects, i.e. increase of blood pressure.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Der Liquor cerebrospinalis von Ratten enthält Angiotensinogen in hoher Konzentration. Nach Injektion von 3500fach angereichertem menschlichem Gehirnrenin in die Hirnventrikel von Ratten stieg die Konzentration von Angiotensin I von unmeßbar niedrigen Werten auf 147,9±18,8 fMol pro ml Liquor an. Der mittlere arterielle Blutdruck änderte sich dabei von 93±2,4 mm Hg auf 107±3,7 mmHg. Der Blutdruckanstieg konnte durch intraventrikuläre Gabe des Angiotensin II Rezeptorenblockers Saralasin rückgängig gemacht werden. Die intraventrikuläre Injektion von Cathepsin D hatte keinen Effekt auf den arteriellen Blutdruck, und die Angiotensin I Konzentration im Liquor blieb unterhalb des Meßbereiches des Radioimmunoassays. Wir schließen daraus, daß Gehirnrenin unter physiologischen Bedingungen in vivo Angiotensin I von endogenem Gehirnangiotensinogen abspaltet. Angiotensin I wird zu Angiotensin II umgewandelt und führt zum Blutdruckanstieg.

    Notes: Abstract In male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) of the stroke prone strain (Okamoto) and in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) urinary kallikrein excretion was investigated at different age and at drug-induced diuresis. In rats of both strains from 7th till 19th week of age urinary kallikrein excretion increased with age. In SHRSP of 7th till 11th week of age kallikrein excretion was higher than in WKY rats, while it was lower in the 48-week-old SHRSP. No correlation was found between urinary kallikrein excretion and systolic blood pressure. In SHRSP and WKY rats a similar daily rhythm of kallikrein excretion in urine was found being high in the early morning and low in the afternoon. Kallikrein excretion correlated significantly with urine volume. The loop diuretic bumetanide (4 and 40 mg/kg) induced diuresis and natriuresis in both strains, however more marked in the WKY rats than in the SHRSP. Urinary kallikrein excretion, however, showed in both strains the same biphasic course with a short lasting increase and a secondary decrease. Thus, in the average urinary kallikrein excretion was not effected by the drug. Prolonged treatment with furosemide over 5 days (125 mg/kg) resulted in an increase in kallikrein excretion in urine, more pronounced in the WKY rats than in the SHRSP. The observed results suggest that renal kallikrein-kinin system is not involved in the development of spontaneous hypertension as a pathogenetic factor, but rather is influenced by other factors like hormone interactions, i.e. mineralocorticoids and catecholamines, as well as renal function and acute changes in urine flow.
