| Popis: | Numerous studies have suggested a role for the nervous system in renal function. Several cholinergic agents have been examined for effects in vivo and in renal slices. Effects mediated through the vascular system and also direct effects have been reported. In this study an irreversible cholinesterase inhibitor, diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) in doses of 1-4 mg/kg, was tested on renal function. A single dose of DFP (2, 3 or 4 mg/kg) caused an increased flow of urine of low osmolality over the 6 h after the administration of the drug with essentially a return to control status by 24 h after either of the lower doses. Twenty-four hours after 4 mg/kg, urine volume was less and urine osmolality greater than control. Renal and brain cholinesterases remained depressed 24 h after DFP. In acute experiments on anesthetized animals, inulin clearance was increased by the lower doses and decreased by the highest dose of DFP. Renal blood flow measured with an electromagnetic flow meter showed a similar dose-response relationship. However, urine flow increased at all doses. The increased urine flow associated with decreased inulin clearance (4 mg/kg) and renal blood flow (3 or 4 mg/kg) suggest a direct effect of DFP on renal tubular function. These effects do not appear to be related to inhibition of cholinesterase. |
