[Saralasin in subjects with low renin arterial hypertension]. 1980

N Frisina, and M Buemi, and A Lasco, and I Macrí, and O Ciraolo, and V Nicita Mauro, and G Costa

The Authors have studied, in a group of hypertensive subjects with low renin, the behavior of arterial blood pressure, PRA, plasma aldosterone, plasma K and Na, after intravenous load of Saralasin before and after treatment with Furosmide (40 mg orally given for 4 days). In such conditions we evidenced an agonist effect of Saralasin mainly on plasma aldosterone and less on arterial pressure. The Authors conclude that Saralasin, in given conditions (free receptor sites), can exhibit on agonist effect on aldosterone secretion; such agonist effect can be augmented by dopaminergic deficit, that sometimes in present is essential arterial hypertension.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more. Blood Pressure, High,Blood Pressures, High,High Blood Pressure,High Blood Pressures
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
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. The enzyme was formerly listed as EC 3.4.99.19.
