    Abstract Aldosterone through the mineralocorticoid receptor MR has detrimental effects on cardiovascular disease. It reduces the bioavailability of nitric oxide and impairs endothelium-dependent vasodilatation. In resistance arteries, aldosterone impairs the sensitivity of vascular smooth muscle cells to nitric oxide by promoting the local secretion of histamine which activates H

    Abstract Aim: Natriuretic peptides, BNP and ANP increase renal blood flow in experimental animals. The signalling pathway in human kidney vasculature is unknown. It was hypothesized that BNP and ANP cause endothelium-independent relaxation of human intrarenal arteries by vascular natriuretic peptide receptor-A, but not -B and -C, which is mimicked by agonists of soluble guanylyl cyclase sGC.
    Methods: Human (n = 54, diameter: 665 ± 29 µm 95% CI) and control murine intrarenal arteries (n = 83, diameter 300 ± 6 µm 95% CI) were dissected and used for force recording by four-channel wire myography. Arterial segments were pre-contracted, then subjected to increasing concentrations of BNP, ANP, phosphodiesterase 5-inhibitor sildenafil, sGC-activator BAY 60-2770 and -stimulator BAY 41-2272. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) dependence was examined by use of L-NAME and eNOS knockout respectively. Molecular targets (NPR A-C, sGC, phosphodiesterase-5 and neprilysin) were mapped by PCR, immunohistochemistry and RNAscope.
    Results: BNP, ANP, sildenafil, sGC-activation and -stimulation caused concentration-dependent relaxation of human and murine intrarenal arteries. BNP responses were independent of eNOS and were not potentiated by low concentration of phosphodiesterase-5-inhibitor, sGC-stimulator or NPR-C blocker. PCR showed NPR-A and C, phosphodiesterase-5, neprilysin and sGC mRNA in renal arteries. NPR-A mRNA and protein was observed in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells in arteries, podocytes, Bowmans capsule and vasa recta. NPR-C was observed in tubules, glomeruli and vasculature.
    Conclusion: Activation of transmembrane NPR-A and soluble guanylyl cyclase relax human preglomerular arteries similarly to phosphodiestase-5 inhibition. The human renal arterial bed relaxes in response to cGMP pathway.

    Abstract Aims: In patients with essential hypertension, abnormal renal sodium handling includes exaggerated natriuresis in response to extracellular volume expansion. We tested the hypothesis that exaggerated natriuresis is associated with increases in medullary and/or cortical renal blood flow.
    Methods: Patients with mild essential hypertension, but no signs of end organ damage, and control subjects were studied after 4 days of dietary standardization (<60 mmol Na
    Results: In patients, arterial blood pressure increased during volume expansion (107 ± 2-114 ± 3 mm Hg, P < 0.05) in contrast to the control group (92 ± 2-92 ± 2 mm Hg). Renal sodium excretion increased more in patients than in controls (+133 ± 31 µmol min
    Conclusion: Exaggerated natriuresis, a hallmark of essential hypertension, is not mediated by increases in regional, renal blood flow.

    Abstract Mouse adipocytes have been reported to release aldosterone and reduce endothelium-dependent relaxation. It is unknown whether perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) releases aldosterone in humans. The present experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that human PVAT releases aldosterone and induces endothelial dysfunction. Vascular reactivity was assessed in human internal mammary and renal segmental arteries obtained at surgery. The arteries were prepared with/without PVAT, and changes in isometric tension were measured in response to the vasoconstrictor thromboxane prostanoid receptor agonist U46619 and the endothelium-dependent vasodilator acetylcholine. The effects of exogenous aldosterone and of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist eplerenone were determined. Aldosterone concentrations were measured by ELISA in conditioned media incubated with human adipose tissue with/without angiotensin II stimulation. Presence of aldosterone synthase and MR mRNA was examined in perirenal, abdominal, and mammary PVAT by PCR. U46619 -induced tension and acetylcholine-induced relaxation were unaffected by exogenous and endogenous aldosterone (addition of aldosterone and MR blocker) in mammary and renal segmental arteries, both in the presence and absence of PVAT. Aldosterone release from incubated perivascular fat was not detectable. Aldosterone synthase expression was not consistently observed in human adipose tissues in contrast to that of MR. Thus, exogenous aldosterone does not affect vascular reactivity and endothelial function in ex vivo human arterial segments, and the tested human adipose tissues have no capacity to synthesize/release aldosterone. In perspective, physiologically relevant effects of aldosterone on vascular function in humans are caused by systemic aldosterone originating from the adrenal gland.
