Effect of fenoldopam on the aldosterone response to metoclopramide in man. 1986

The effect of fenoldopam, a selective DA1-agonist, on the plasma aldosterone response to metoclopramide was studied in six hypertensive patients included in a multicentre double-blind placebo controlled cross-over study of the antihypertensive effects of fenoldopam. Fenoldopam significantly increased baseline plasma renin activity (PRA); baseline plasma aldosterone levels rose slightly. Baseline PRL and the PRL response to metoclopramide were not altered by fenoldopam. After metoclopramide, a significant increase of plasma aldosterone was observed during treatment with fenoldopam, as well as in the placebo-period. The peak values were not significantly different and occurred at 15 min during both treatment periods. These results indicate that fenoldopam does not reduce metoclopramide-induced aldosterone secretion and therefore suggest that the adrenal dopamine receptor is not identical to the vascular DA1 receptor.

D012083 Renin A highly specific (Leu-Leu) endopeptidase that generates ANGIOTENSIN I from its precursor ANGIOTENSINOGEN, leading to a cascade of reactions which elevate BLOOD PRESSURE and increase sodium retention by the kidney in the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM.
