- Abstract
Mechanisms involved in the acute responses to renal denervation (RDN) have yet to be fully understood. We assessed urinary volume, autonomic control and aorta vascular reactivity after acute RDN. Male normotensive Wistar rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were divided into normotensive + RDN (ND) or sham surgery (NS), and hypertensive + RDN (HD) or sham surgery (HS). Metabolic parameters and hemodynamic measurements were recorded 72h and 4 days after intervention, respectively. Aortic rings were studied 7 days post RDN in an isometric myograph. Concentration–response curves to phenylephrine, sodium nitroprusside and acetylcholine (10–10–10−5 M) were performed. Two-way ANOVA was used for group comparisons and differences reported when p < 0.05. Results are presented as mean ± SEM. Urinary volume was 112% higher in HD vs. HS (HS = 14.94 ± 2.5 mL; HD = 31.69 ± 2.2 mL) and remained unchanged in normotensive rats. Systolic BP was lower in HD rats (HS = 201 ± 12 vs. HD = 172 ± 3 mmHg) without changes in normotensive group. HD group showed increased HF and LF modulation (HS = 5.8 ± 0.7 ms2vs. HD = 13.4 ± 1.4 ms2; HS = 3.5 ± 0.7 ms2vs. HD = 10.5 ± 1.7 ms2, respectively). RDN normalized vascular reactivity in HD rats and increased phenylephrine response in ND rats. Acute fall in BP induced by RDN is associated with increased urinary volume, which in turn may also have contributed to functional changes of the aorta.
