Abstract

We have previously reported an increased urinary excretion of vasopressin without a rise in circulating levels of this hormone in the deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-hypertensive pig (DH). The present study was designed to characterize the renal handling of vasopressin in DH that might account for this paradox. DOCA hypertension was produced in seven domestic female pigs by means of subcutaneous implants of Silastic rubber impregnated with DOCA. Thirty days after DOCA implantation, urinary clearances of inulin, para-aminohippurate (PAH), and vasopressin were measured in the conscious animals during infusion of a 5% dextrose solution, first without and then with lysine vasopressin. Subsequent to this study, four of the pigs were placed on a low-sodium (10 meq/kg food) diet for 4 wk. At the end of this period, the clearances were again evaluated. We observed an increased urinary vasopressin clearance (CLVP) in the DH associated with an increased urinary flow but without significant changes in the clearances of inulin or PAH. Dietary sodium restrictions reversed the hypertension and the increased urinary flow and returned the CLVP to normotensive levels. These results indicate that the increased urinary excretion of vasopressin in DH is because of an increased urinary clearance of this hormone. This increased urinary CLVP is the consequence of the high urine flow in these pigs.
