Effects of angiotensin antagonism at rest and during exercise in sodium-deplete man. 1978

R Fagard, and A Amery, and T Reybrouck, and P Lijnen, and L Billiet, and M Bogaert, and E Moerman, and A De Schaepdryver

Mean intra-arterial pressure (P-), heart rate (HR), cardiac index (CI), total peripheral resistance index (TPRI), and plasma renin activity (PRA), norepinephrine (PNE), and epinephrine (PE) were estimated in five normal male subjects placed on a low-sodium diet for the previous 7 days. Subjects were studied during rest in recumbency and during intravenous infusion of either glucose or saralasin in a) recumbent position, b) sitting position on the bicycle ergometer, and c) during submaximal graded exercise. At rest recumbent saralasin induced pressure changes that were closely related to logPRA. During exercise the increase in P- was significantly lower during saralasin as compared to glucose from 110 W on, related to a greater reduction in TPRI. The increase of PRA during exercise was about three times greater with saralasin as compared to glucose, but the rises in PNE and PE were similar in both series of tests. Angiotensin II may thus have a role in the maintenance of P- in the supine sodium-deplete normal subjects, and stimulation of the renin angiotensin system during physical exercise contributes to a minor extent to the increase in P- in these conditions.

D008297 Male Males
D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D011187 Posture The position or physical attitude of the body. Postures
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.

D004837 Epinephrine The active sympathomimetic hormone from the ADRENAL MEDULLA. It stimulates both the alpha- and beta- adrenergic systems, causes systemic VASOCONSTRICTION and gastrointestinal relaxation, stimulates the HEART, and dilates BRONCHI and cerebral vessels. It is used in ASTHMA and CARDIAC FAILURE and to delay absorption of local ANESTHETICS.

D000804 Angiotensin II An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.
