Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) decreases renin secretion rate (RSR), plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone (PA) in normal dogs. To clarify further the mechanisms responsible for these effects, the left renal artery was constricted in seven anaesthetized dogs prior to ANF administration. Constriction of the left renal artery decreased (P < 0.05) ipsilateral mean renal perfusion pressure (MRPP, 29 +/- 7%), renal plasma flow (RPF, 42 +/- 11%) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and filtered sodium load (FLNa, 21 +/- 8.8%). Ipsilateral RSR and peripheral PRA tended to increase, although not significantly. Atrial natriuretic factor infusion did not alter GFR in the clamped kidney and failed to decrease RSR or PRA. Despite this, PA levels decreased significantly (7.8 +/- 2.4 to 5.6 +/- 1.8 ng%). These results suggest that ANF-induced inhibition of renin secretion is largely consequent on its renal haemodynamic actions and that suppression of aldosterone by ANF in vivo is due, in part, to direct effects on the adrenal cortex.

D012078 Renal Artery Obstruction Narrowing or occlusion of the RENAL ARTERY or arteries. It is due usually to ATHEROSCLEROSIS; FIBROMUSCULAR DYSPLASIA; THROMBOSIS; EMBOLISM, or external pressure. The reduced renal perfusion can lead to renovascular hypertension (HYPERTENSION, RENOVASCULAR).
