Abstract：
:The effects of localized distension of the pulmonary vein - left atrial junctions on plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) have been examined in chloralose anaesthetized dogs. Pulmonary vein distension caused an increase in heart rate and a decrease in plasma AVP concentration. Cooling the vagosympathetic nerves to 10 degrees C caused an increase in arterial pressure and plasma AVP concentration and prevented the changes in heart rate and plasma AVP concentration caused by pulmonary vein distension. Cooling the vagus nerves to 16 degrees C did not change heart rate, arterial pressure, or plasma AVP concentration but significantly reduced the changes in heart rate and plasma AVP concentration caused by pulmonary vein distension. Propranolol (0.5 mg/kg) decreased heart rate and prevented the increase in heart rate associated with pulmonary vein distension but did not abolish the decrease in plasma AVP concentration. It is concluded that distension of the pulmonary vein - left atrial junctions causes a decrease in plasma AVP concentration by stimulating atrial receptors with myelinated afferent fibres. The decrease in plasma AVP concentration is not secondary to the reflex changes in heart rate caused by pulmonary vein distension.
