Abstrakt: The diuretic effect of 3-demethyl-2-geranyl-4-prenylbellidypholine xanthone (DGP) and 1,5,8-trihydroxy-4',5'-dimethyl-2H-pyrano(2,3:3,2)-4-(3-methylbut-2-enyl) xanthone (TDP), two natural prenylated xanthones, was investigated in female normotensive (NTR) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The rats received a single treatment with DGP, TDP, hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), or vehicle (VEH) after an oral load of physiological saline. The effects of DGP and TDP in combination with diuretics of clinical use, as well as with L-NAME, atropine and indomethacin were also explored. The urinary parameters were measured at the end of the 8-h experiment. When orally given to rats, DGP was able to increase the urine volume, at doses of 0.03-0.3 mg/kg, associated with a K + -sparing effect. TDP, in turn, at doses of 0.03-0.3 mg/kg, induced diuresis and saluresis (i.e. augmented urinary levels of Na + and Cl - ) in NTR, while decreased the urinary content of Ca 2+ in both NTR and SHR. The combination with HCTZ, but not with furosemide or amiloride, significantly enhanced DGP and TDP induced diuresis, which was accompanied by an increase of the electrolytes content in the urine. Instead, amiloride in combination with DGP or TDP enhanced urinary Na + and Cl - and decreased K + elimination. Furthermore, the effect of DGP and TDP were heightened after pretreatment with L-NAME. While atropine was able to prevent DGP-induced diuresis, the pretreatment with indomethacin precluded TDP-induced diuresis. Besides, TDP exerted protective effects against urinary calcium oxalate crystals formation. Taken together, our data revealed the diuretic effect of two xanthones in rats and their possible underlying mode of action.
