The uridine nucleotides constitute a natriuretic pressor system.

Abstract:

:1. Uridine monophosphate was tested in the conscious rat for natriuretic properties and an immunoperoxidase technique was used to localize uridine-containing compounds in the rat kidney. 2. Uridine monophosphate, infused in a moderate pressor dose, caused a significant natriuresis compared to the effect of control infusions of solvent vehicle. 3. Uridine-containing compounds were found in most tubular elements with particularly dense staining in the distal and collecting tubules. 4. While the increased sodium excretion may have been due to increased renal perfusion pressure, the high density of uridine staining in distal nephrons suggests that the uridine nucleotides have a specific nephron function, possibly relating to sodium transport.

  • Systemic adenosine increase during cold pressor test is dependent on sympathetic activation.

    abstract::1. Following local vasoconstriction-inducing stimuli, such as the cold pressor test (CPT), significant changes occur in haemodynamics, with a rise in arterial blood pressure and heart rate (HR) due to the activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Among the compensatory mechanisms to local ischaemia, the endogenous...
