Captopril, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, when given intravenously in dog, elicited the diuretic action along with the increases of glomerular filtration rates (GFR), renal plasma flow (RPF) and osmolar clearances (Cosm) with no changes of free water clearnces ($C_{H_2O}$), and then captopril produced the enlargement of excretion rates of electrolytes in urine and the reduction of reabsorption rates of electrolytes in renal tubles. Captopril, when given into a renal artery, exhibited no changes of renal function in the experinental kidney, whereas diuretic action with the same mechanism as shown in intravenous captopril in control kidney. Captopril, when injected into a carotid artery, showed increases in rates of urine flow in a small does which did not affect on renal action when it was administered intravenusly. Diuretic action induced by captopril was not influenced by renal artery denervation, propranolol and angiotensin II inhibiters. Above results suggest that captopril produced diuretic action along with renal hemodynamic changes by slight contraction of vas efferense and reduction of reabsorption rate of electrolytes in renal tubules, especilly distal tubules, that may be mediatedby endogenous substances.

In anesthetized dogs, antidiuretic action of intravenously administered BRL 34915 (10.0~30.0 $\mu$/kg) was blocked by renal denervation, whereas it was not affected by glibenclamide, a selective $K_{ATP}$ blocker, given into renal artery. Diuretic action in ipsilateral kidney produced by intrarenal administration of BRL 34915 was not influenced by renal denervation, but blocked completely by glibenclamide given into the vein. Above results suggest that the antidiuretic action of BRL 34915 is mediated by renal sympathetic nerves and the diuretic action is caused by opening of $K^+$ channel within kidney.

As it has been reported that morphine induce antidiuresis, and antinatriuresis along with decrease in renal hemodynamics when given intracerebroventricularly[ivt], the renal action of nalorphine, a partial antagonist of morphine action, and its influence upon the morphine action were investigated in this study. $10{\mu}g/kg$ of nalorphine given into the lateral ventricle of the rabbit brain tended to decrease renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate and increase the reabsorption of free water in the tubules. $100{\mu}g/kg$ ivt significantly decreased urine flow rate and increased free water reabsorption, and tended to increase electrolyte excretion in spite of decrease in renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration, suggesting that ADH also involved in the antidiuresis. Morphine hydrochloride, $10{\mu}g/kg$, ivt, produced marked decrement in renal hemodynamics along with decreased excretions of sodium, potassium and water, and these morphine actions were alleviated by nalorphine given 20 min later. The natriuretic action of ivt nalorphine manifested itself uninfluenced by the morphine. These observations indicate that nalorphine ivt produces renal actions similar to those of morphine, though less potent, and that it can antagonize the latter action. It is suggested that morphine influences renal hemodynamics through nerve by stimulating the 'morphine receptor' in the brain, whereas nalorphine liberates ADH by the agonistic action on the 'nalorphine receptor'.

Verapamil, $Ca^{2+}$-channel blocker, when given into vein or into carotid artery, produced the decrease of urine flow accompanied with the decreased amounts of Na$^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ excreted in urine ($E_{Na}, E_{K}$) and with the decreased clearances of free water (C$_{H_2O}$) and osmolar substance (C$_{osm}$), and then increased reabsorption of Na$^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ in renal tubules (R$_{Na}$, R$_{N}$), glomeruler filtration rate (GFR) and renal plasma flow (RPF) were inhibited when verapamil was given into carotid artery, but were only tendency of reduction when given intravenously. Verapamil, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited diuresis accompanied with the increased GER, RPF, E$_{Na}$ and E$_{K}$, with the decreased filtration fraction (FF) in only infused kidney. At the same time, $C_{H_2O}$ was not changed, R$_{Na}$ and R$_{K}$ were reduced. Antidiuretic action by verapamil administered into vein or into carotid artery in normal kidney was reversed to diuretic action in denervated kidney. At this time, parameters of renal function exhibited the opposite phenomena compared to that elicited by verapamil in normal kidney, wherease renal denervation did not influence the action of verapamil infused into a renal artery. Above results suggest that verapamil produce both antidiuresis through nervous system centrally, not endogenous substances and diuresis by direct action in the kidney. Diurectic action are caused by hemodynamic improvement through dilatioon of vas efferense and by greatly inhibited reabsorption of electrolytes in distal tubules.

This study was attempted to investigate on renal effect of ($\pm$)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenol 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3 benzazepine (SKF 81297), dopamine $D_1$ receptor agonist, in dog. SKF 81297, when gluten intravenously, produced diuretic action along with the increases of renal plasma flow (RPF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), amounts of N $a^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ excreted into urine ( $E_{Na}$ , $E_{K}$) and osmolar clearance ( $C_{osm}$). It also decreased the reabsorption rates of N $a^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ in renal tubule ( $R_{Na}$ , $R_{K}$) and free water clearance ( $C_{H2O}$), whereas ratios of $K^{+}$ agonist N $a^{+}$ in urine and filtration fraction (FF) was not changed. SKF 81297, when administered into a renal artery, elicited diuresis both in experimental kidney given the SKF 81297 and control kidney not given, while the effect was more remarkable in experimental kidney than those exhibited in control kidney. SKF 81297 given into carotid artery also exhibited diuresis, the potency at this time, compared to those induced by intravenous SKF 81297, was magnusgreat. Above results suggest that SKF 81297 produces diuresis by both indirect action through changes of central function and direct action being induced in kidney. Central diuretic action is mediated by improvement of renal hemodynamics, but direct action by inhibition of electrolytes reabsorption in renal tubule.enal tubule. tubule.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of renal denervation on diuretic action of UK 14, 304, $\alpha$$_2$-Adrenergic Agonist, administered into the vein and the carotid artery in dog. The diuretic action of UK 14, 304 administered into the vein or the carotid artery was reversed to the antidiuretic action by renal denervation, this time, the decrease of N $a^{+}$excretion amounts in urine ( $E_{Na}$ ) and the increase of N $a^{+}$ reabsorption rates in renal tubule ( $R_{Na}$ ) were exhibited. This results suggest that central diuretic action of UK 14, 304 is mediated by renal nerves and the antidiuretic action of UK 14, 304 in denervation kidney is caused by the increase of N $a^{+}$reabsorption rates ( $R_{Na}$ ) in renal tubules in dog.n dog.

In this study attempts were made to observe the effects of guanabenz on renal function in dog, which manifests the antihypertensive action by inhibition of sympathetic tone through stimulating the presynaptic adrenoceptor (${\alpha}_2-adrenoceptor$). Guanabenz, when injected at a dose of $30.0{\mu}g/kg$, or infused at a dose of $3.0{\mu}g/kg/min$ intravenously, produced diuretic action with increased amounts of $Na^+\;and\;K^+$ in urine, and with decreased reabsorption rates of $Na^+\;and\;K^+$ in renal tubules. It was also observed that the rates of osmolar and free water clearances were increased, but the glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow were not changed. Guanabenz injected at a dose of $3.0{\mu}g/kg$ into a carotid artery or infused intravenously at a dose of $3.0{\mu}g/kg/min$ in a state of water diuresis elicited the diuretic action of the similar aspect as a case of guanabenz given intravenously. The diuretic action produced by guanabenz was completly blocked by pretreatment of i.v. prazosin, ${\alpha}_1-adrenoblocking$ agent, or of i.v. yohimbine, ${\alpha}_2-adrenergic$ blocking agent. Prazosin, when given into a renal artery, inhibited the diuretic action by i.v. guanabenz in only injected kidney, whereas in case of yohimbine the action was inhibited in both kidney. Guanabenz infused at a dose of $1.0{\mu}g/kg/min$ into a renal artery exhibited no significant changes of renal function in both kidney. In denervation experiments, guanabenz given intravenously produced typical diuretic action in innervated kidney, whereas in denervated kidney, it did not affect the action at initial period but exhibited the action with increase of only free water clearance at later period. These results suggest that guanabenz produced diuretic action in dog by inhibition of electrolyte reabsorption rates in renal tabules, mainly proximal tubule and of ADH release, which is mediated by stimulating of central sympathetic ${\alpha}_2-receptor$.

lt had been reproted previously that (${\pm}$)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl 2,3,4,5-tetra-hydro -lH-3benzazepine (SKF 81297), dopamine $D_1$ receptor agonist, produced diuresis by both Indirect action through central function and direct action being induced in kidney. This study was attempted in order to examine the diuresis mechanism of such SKF 81297 Diuretic action of SKF 81297 given into the vein or the carotid artery was not affected by renal denervation, whereas diuretic action of SKF 81297 administered into a renal artery was blocked completely by renal denervation, and then diuretic action of SKF 81297 injected into carotid artery was inhibited by SCH 23390, dopamine $D_1$ receptor antagonist, given into carotid artery. Above results suggest that indirect diuretic action of SKF 81297 elicites through central dopamine $D_1$ receptor and direct diuresis in kidney by influence of renal nerves.

Angiotensin II, adminstered (infused or injected) intravenously, elicited the antidiuretic action with the decreased parameters of renal function at a small dose ($0.01\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), whereas, at a large dose (0.03, $0.1\;{\mu}g/kg/min$ and $5.0\;{\mu}g/kg$), it produced the diuretic action accompanied the increased amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine ($E_{Na}\;and\;R_K$). At this time, glomerular filtration rates (GFR) were weakened slightly and renal plasma flows (RPF) were reduced markedly, and then filtration fractions (FF) were increased. Angiotensin II, infused into a renal artery, exhibited antidiuretic action at a small dose ($0.003\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), and diuretic action at a large dose ($0.01\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), only in infused (experimental) kidney. The mechanism of the action was similar to the cases of the intravenous angiotensin II. The above results suggest that angiotensin II of a large dose produced diuretic action due to mechanism inhibiting reabsorption of electrolytes in renal tubules, mainly in proximal tubule in dog.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of diltiazem, which is a $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocker of benzothiazepine derivatives, on renal function in the dog. Diltiazem, when infused into the vein or carotid artery, produced the antidiuresis accompanied with the decreased excretion rates of sodium and potassium in urine$(E_{Na},\;E_K)$ and the increased reabsorption rates of sodium and potassium in renal tubules$(R_{Na},\;R_K)$. Diltiazem, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited the diuresis along with the increased renal plasma flow(RPF), osmolar clearance$(C_{osm})$, $E_{Na}$ and $E_K$, and decreased $R_{Na}$ and $R_K$ in only infused kidney. Above results suggest that diltiazem possess both antidiuretic action through central action and diuretic action by direct inhibition of electrolytes reabsorption rates in renal tubules, mainly distal tubule.
