    Abstract The neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) exists in the renal cortex predominantly in the macula densa, suggesting that nitric oxide (NO) derived from the macula densa plays a role in feedback regulation of renin in response to altered sodium metabolism. To determine if nNOS is a critical component in renin stimulation induced by dietary sodium restriction, rats received either normal sodium or a sodium-restricted diet (0.03%) for 7 days and subsequently were or were not treated with the selective inhibitor of nNOS 7-nitroindazole (7-NI) either acutely (50 mg/kg body wt ip) on the final day or chronically (20 mg/kg body wt ip 2 x/day) over the final 5 days. On the last day, rats were anesthetized with Inactin and fitted with arterial and renal venous catheters to collect blood and monitor blood pressure (BP) and a flow probe to measure renal blood flow (RBF). BP (105 vs. 108 mmHg) was similar in normal and low-sodium dietary groups, respectively, whereas RBF tended to be higher in the sodium-restricted group (6.5 +/- 0.3 vs. 7.6 +/- 0.4 ml.min-1.g kidney wt-1). Both renal venous renin (RR) and renin secretion rate (RSR) were elevated approximately fourfold by sodium restriction [RR = 5.8 +/- 0.8 vs. 20.5 +/- 2.7 ng angiotensin (ANG) I.ml-1.h-1; P < 0.001; RSR = 3.0 +/- 0.9 vs. 13.1 +/- 4.1 ng ANG I.h-1.min-1; P < 0.025]. Acute 7-NI did not change BP, RR, or RSR, but reduced RBF in sodium-restricted rats by 8% (P < 0.05). Chronic 7-NI had no effect on renin in rats on a normal diet, but reduced RR by one-half in the sodium-restricted group (to 9.9 +/- 1.6 ng ANG I-ml-1.h-1; P < 0.001) and reduced RSR to normal (diet) levels (to 3.9 +/- 1.4 ng ANG I.h-1.min-1; P < 0.05). Although selective NOS inhibition by 7-NI did not affect BP, RBF, or renin in control rats on a normal diet, chronic 7-NI reversed the stimulation of renin induced by dietary sodium restriction. These data suggest that nNOS-derived NO plays an important role in the macula densa during feedback stimulation of renin induced by dietary sodium restriction.

    Abstract The macula densa is a regulatory site for renin. It contains exclusively the neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), suggesting NO could stimulate renin secretion through the macula densa pathway. To test whether neuronal NOS mediates renin secretion, renin was stimulated by either the renal baroreceptor or the diuretic furosemide (acting through the macula densa pathway). Renin secretion rate (RSR) was measured in 12 Inactin-anesthetized rats at normal (104 +/- 3 mmHg) and reduced renal perfusion pressure (65 +/- 1 mmHg), before and after selective blockade of the neuronal NOS with 7-nitroindazole (7-NI, 50 mg/kg ip). 7-NI had no effect on basal blood pressure (102 +/- 2 mmHg) or renal blood flow (RBF). Decreasing renal perfusion pressure doubled RSR from 11.8 +/- 3.3 to 22.9 +/- 5.7 ng ANG I.h-1.min-1 (P < 0.01) (ANG I is angiotensin I). Similarly, in 7-NI-treated rats, reduced perfusion doubled RSR from 8.5 +/- 1.8 to 20.5 +/- 6.2 ng ANG I.h-1.min-1 (P < 0.01). Renal hemodynamics and RSR were measured in response to 5 mg/kg iv furosemide in 12 control rats and 11 rats treated with 7-NI. Blocking neuronal NOS did not alter blood pressure (102 +/- 2 mmHg), RBF (5.8 +/- 0.4 ml.min-1.g kidney wt-1), or renal vascular resistance (18.7 +/- 1.4 mmHg.ml-1.min.g kidney wt).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

    Abstract The regulation of renin release is unusual in that intracellular calcium reportedly acts as an inhibitory second messenger. Increased calcium not only inhibits renin release but is a cofactor in nitric oxide synthesis. Also, nitric oxide can inhibit renin release. This study was done in vitro using rat renal cortical slices to determine whether calcium-mediated renin inhibition could be in part due to the concurrent production of nitric oxide. Renin concentration in the incubation medium was determined by radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I (Ang I) generation (in nanograms Ang I per hour per milligram per 30 minutes of incubation). In all studies, n = 6 to 17. In normal-calcium incubation medium (2.6 mmol/L), 10(-4) mol/L NG-monomethyl L-arginine, which blocks nitric oxide synthesis, caused an 18% increase in basal renin release (78.6 +/- 8.9 versus 66.7 +/- 5.8 [ng Ang I/h]/mg per 30 minutes incubation, P < .05). When calcium was eliminated from the incubation medium, basal renin release doubled (to 133.1 +/- 15.2 [ng Ang I/h]/mg per 30 minutes incubation, P < .001). Without calcium, inhibiting nitric oxide synthesis had no further effect on renin release (126.8 +/- 17.7 [ng Ang I/h]/mg per 30 minutes incubation). High-calcium medium (7.8 mmol/L) reduced basal renin release by half (30.8 +/- 4.8 [ng Ang I/h]/mg per 30 minutes incubation, P < .001), but inhibiting nitric oxide synthesis in high-calcium medium stimulated renin release by 50% (46.9 +/- 6.2 [ng Ang I/h]/mg per 30 minutes incubation, P < .005). Addition of the calmodulin inhibitor W-7 completely reversed the inhibition of renin by high-calcium medium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
