    Notes: Summary In three healthy conscious dogs blood pressure was measured in the abdominal aorta with an implanted miniature transducer. Flow velocity in the left renal artery was recorded by an electromagnetic flowmeter. An appropriate distance between the transducer sites compensated the time-lag introduced by the flowmeter system and allowed records with a negligable foot to foot phase shift between the flow- and the pressure pulse. Pressure-flow curves (I.-P. curves) were obtained recording flow versus pressure beat by beat on an oscilloscope. Electrical stimulation of the right cervical vagus nerve produced I.-P.-curves, which decayed in less than 3 sec down to a blood pressure of 25 mm Hg (dynamic I.-P.-curve). Static I.-P.-curves were recorded by reducing blood pressure within 1 to 2 min to the same pressure level. The following results were obtained: A unique dynamic I.-P.-curve, which follows the power functionI=a·P n exists for each level of arterial mean pressure i.e. “myogenic” vascular tone. An increase of arterial mean pressure (i.e. “myogenic” vascular tone) decreases the exponentn and increases the coefficienta of the power function. The static I. P.-curve, which runs parallel to the pressure axis above 90 mm Hg is actually composed of a family of different dynamic I.-P.-curves. The kidney resistance vessels are rather distensible. The pressure-dependent increase of “myogenic” vascular tone, which developes at perfusion pressures above 55 mm Hg, decreases the vessel distensibility. A change of mean perfusion pressure causes the kidney resistance vessels to shift from one to another dynamic I.-P.-curve without altering mean blood flow.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An wachen Hunden wurden mit einem Miniaturdruckaufnehmer der Blutdruck in der abdominalen Aorta und mit einem elektromagnetischen Flußmesser die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit in der linken Nierenarterie gemessen. Die Reaktion der Nierenstromstärke und des Blutdrucks auf rasche (〈1 sec) Injektion von 2,5, 5,0, 10,0 und 20,0 μg Isoproterenol in die abdominale Aorta proximal der Nierenarterie wurde untersucht. Bei allen vier Dosen wurde regelmäßig eine Steigerung der Nierendurchblutung und eine Abnahme des arteriellen Blutdrucks beobachtet. Die maximale Widerstandssenkung betrug im Mittel 25–30%. Während der ersten 6 sec nach Injektion erreichte die Nierenstromstärke bei noch unverändertem arteriellen Mitteldruck einen signifikant erhöhten Wert. Ebenso fand sich eine signifikant erhöhte Stromstärke, nachdem der Blutdruck sein Ausgangsniveau wieder erreicht hatte. Nach β-Blockade mit 0,5 mg/kg Propranolol hatte Isoproterenol in den verwendeten Dosen keinen Einfluß auf die Nierenstromstärke und den arteriellen Blutdruck. Das Ausmaß der beobachteten Vasodilatation läßt sich durch Autoregulation nicht erklären. Aus den Experimenten wird geschlossen, daß Isoproterenol (2,5 bis 20,0 μg i.a.) am wachen Hund in Ruhe β-Receptoren der Nierengefäße erregt.
    Notes: Summary In unanesthetized dogs abdominal aortic pressure was measured with an implanted miniature transducer, left renal artery flow velocity by an electromagnetic flowmeter. The effect of rapid injections (〈1 sec) of 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 20.0 μg isoproterenol into the abdominal aorta proximal to the renal artery on kidney blood flow and arterial blood pressure was investigated. Isoproterenol in every dose used regularly caused kidney blood flow to increase and arterial blood pressure to fall. The maximum decrease of resistance to flow in the average amounted to 25–30%. During the first 6 sec after drug injection kidney blood flow was already significantly elevated while arterial blood pressure was still unchanged.A significantly augmented kidney blood flow was also found when blood pressure had returned again to its original level. After β-blockade (0,5 mg/kg propranolol) isoproterenol (2.5–20.0 μg i.a.) had no effect on kidney blood flow and arterial blood pressure. The extent of the vasodilation cannot be attributed to autoregulation. It is concluded, that isoproterenol (2.5–20.0 μg i.a.) causes a β-adrenergic vasodilation in the kidney vasculature of the resting conscious dog.
