    Notes: Summary To elucidate the mechanism underlying the sodium retention caused byα 1-adrenoceptor blockade in man, a placebo-controlled, randomised, double-blind study has been made of the acute effects of bunazosin anα 1-antagonist, on urinary sodium excretion, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and the renin-aldosterone system in 7 healthy men. A single oral dose of bunazosin 2.0 mg caused a significant reduction (P 〈 0.05) in urinary sodium excretion after 0–2 h, 2–4 h, and 4–6 h. The mean values for plasma ANP, AVP, aldosterone, and cortisol concentrations at those times were similar after placebo and bunazosin, and plasma renin activity was significantly increased 2 and 4 h after bunazosin. Pretreatment with oral enalapril 10 mg, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, did not prevent the bunazosin-induced reduction in urinary sodium excretion. There was a significant positive correlation between the drug-induced changes in blood pressure and urinary sodium excretion. The results suggest that ANP, AVP, and renin-aldosterone may play little role in the sodium retention caused by acuteα 1-adrenoceptor blockade in man.

    Renal effects of nicardipine, a calcium antagonist, in hypertensive type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients with and without nephropathy (1990)

    Notes: Summary The renal effects of oral maintenance doses of nicardipine 60–120 mg/day have been studied in 18 hypertensive patients with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus: 6 with normoalbuminuria (urinary albumin excretion rate, AER 〈20 μg · min−1, Group A); 6 with incipient nephropathy, (AER 20–200 μg · min−1, Group B); and 6 with overt nephropathy (AER 〉200 μg · min−1, Group C). Treatment for 4 weeks significantly lowered the systolic and diastolic blood pressures and reduced total renal vascular resistance in all three groups. Nicardipine increased renal blood flow significantly in Group C and slightly in Group B, and had no effect in Group A. Glomerular filtration rate remained unchanged in all three groups. It significantly reduced AER and the fractional clearance of albumin in Group B, whereas AER in Groups A and C was not altered. Plasma renin activity, aldosterone concentration, osmotic pressure, serum total protein and albumin concentrations and haemoglobin A1c level were similar in the control and nicardipine phases in all three groups. The results suggest that nicardipine may preserve renal function whilst having a concomitant hypotensive action in hypertensive Type 2 diabetic patients with normoalbuminuria and incipient nephropathy, and that the drug may improve renal blood flow in patients with overt nephropathy. The effect of the drug on urinary albumin excretion may deserve further investigation.

    Comparison of the renal effects of dilevalol and carteolol in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension (1990)

    Notes: Summary The effects of 6 weeks of treatment with dilevalol 100 mg once daily, or carteolol 10 mg once daily, on renal blood flow (RBF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and total renal vascular resistance (TRR) were studied in 10 patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension in a randomised cross-over experiment. Both drugs lowered the systolic and diastolic blood pressures to a similar extent without altering the heart rate. Carteolol non-significantly decreased RBF by 9.2% and GFR by 12.3% without altering. TRR, whereas dilevalol produced a significant reduction in TRR by 13.2% (p〈0.05), a non-significant decrease in RBF by 4.6% and no change in GFR. Neither drug changed plasma osmotic pressure, serum total protein concentration, electrolytes or plasma aldosterone concentration. Plasma renin activity tended to be lower in the dilevalol phase as compared to the carteolol phase. The results suggest that dilevalol may cause a greater decrease in TRR and less reduction in GFR when compared to carteolol in patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension. The difference in the renal effects might be due to the difference in the potency of vasodilatory properties of both drugs at the doses applied.
