ABSTRACT
The participation of specific of special nephron segments in the renal control of sodium handling after adrenergic stimulation was investigated by determining lithium clearance in groups of 5-12 male Wistar rats (230-300 g) microinjected with noradrenaline into the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA). Microinjection of noradrenaline (12.5 to 100.0 nmol/ul) into the LHA promoted a significant decrease in proximal sodium reabsorption (control, 86.5 ñ 1.3; 12.5,81.4 ñ 2.4; 50.0, 75.4 ñ 1.8 and 100.0,77.2 ñ 1.7%) and a dose-related increase in distal sodium reabsorption (control, 13.4 ñ 1.6; 12.5, 18.4 ñ 1.25.0,26.9 ñ 2.9; 50.0,24.1 ñ 2.7; 100.0,22.1 ñ 1.9%) with no significannt changes inm creatinine clearance. Fractional sodium reabsorption after different noradrenaline concentrations was significantly reduced in the proximal nephron sites up to the concentration of 25.0 nmol/ul. Beyond this concentration, a smaller but progressive increase in fraqctional sodium reabsorption was observed in the post-proximal segment. These findings suggest an effective participation of proximal and post-proximal nephrons in natriuresis after lateral hypothalamic noradrenergic stimulation
