The effects of indomethacin, an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, on renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, urine flow and excretion of sodium and potassium were studied in the anesthetized dog. Indomethacin, 2.5 mg/kg i.v., decreased renal blood flow but increased aortic pressure and calculated renal vascular resistance. Glomerular filtration rate was not influenced by the synthetase inhibitor. Sodium excretion was decreased and para-aminohippurate extraction was increased after administration of indomethacin. Transient decreases in urine flow and potassium excretion were observed; however, both parameters returned to control value 75 minutes after administration of indomethacin. The early decrease in urine flow rate correlated closely with the decrease in sodium excretion. These data suggest that in the anesthetized dog, endogenous prostaglandins may serve to maintain renal blood flow but not glomerular filtration rate. Under the conditions of the present experiments, sodium excretion and to a lesser extent potassium excretion have been suggested as being dependent on prostaglandin synthesis. |
