Popis: | We have previously reported that (+/-)-1-(2.5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane (DOI), a 5-HT2 receptor agonist, induced renal vasodilation in anesthetized dogs. The present study was designed to investigate whether DOI-induced renal vasodilation might be mediated by increased nitric oxide (NO) release/production in renal tissue. The experiments were performed in anesthetized dogs. A 23-gauge needle was inserted into the left renal artery for infusion of drug solutions. Renal blood flow was measured with an electromagnetic flowmeter. The microdialysis probes were implanted into the renal cortex to collect the dialysate for measurement of guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) and nitrite/nitrate (NO2/NO3) concentration. Intrarenal infusion of DOI at a rate of 5 microg/kg/min resulted in a significant increase, by 30 +/- 4%, in renal blood flow, indicating renal vasodilation. The renal interstitial concentrations of NO2/NO3 and cGMP also increased by 70 +/- 6% and 60 +/- 6%, respectively. These changes induced by DOI were completely abolished by the intrarenal pretreatment with N(w)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, a NO synthase inhibitor, 100 microg/kg/min) or sarpogrelate (100 microg/kg/min, a highly selective 5-HT2 receptor antagonist). DOI infusion increased urine volume and urinary excretion of Na+, which were also blocked by L-NAME or sarpogrelate. These results suggest that DOI caused renal vasodilation due to increased NO release/production by stimulation of 5-HT2 receptors in the kidney. The natriuretic effect of DOI might also be related to increased intrarenal NO production. |
