Enhanced superoxide activity modulates renal function in NO-deficient hypertensive rats
Original language description
An enhancement of superoxide (O2-) activity was shown to contribute to the development of hypertension induced by NO deficiency. To better understand the mechanistic role of O2- in this NO-deficient hypertension, we evaluated the renal responses to acuteintraarterial administration of an O2- scavenger, tempol (50 microg/min per 100 g of body weight) in anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with NO synthase inhibitor nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (15 mg/kg per day in drinking water, n=7) for 4 weeks, which caused increases in mean arterial pressure (146+/-3 versus 124+/-2 mm Hg) compared with normotensive control rats (n=6). Hypertensive rats had higher renal vascular resistance (29+/-2 versus 20+/-1 mm Hg/mL per minute per gram), as well as lower renal blood flow (5.2+/-0.3 versus 6.3+/-0.2 mL/min per gram; cortical blood flow, 153+/-13 versus 191+/-8 perfusion units; medullary blood flow, 43+/-2 versus 51+/-3 perfusion units) and glomerular filtration rate (0.69+/-0.04 versus
