Abstract: | In the early distal tubule of the newtTriturus vulgaris L., 1 nM arginine-vasopressin (AVP) increased water reabsorption; the fractional reabsorption of Na+ was elevated from 46.2±6.9% to 67.8±3.9% (P<0.001), of Cl– from 52.7±6.7% to 73.1±3.5% (P<0.001), of Mg2+ from 48.0±7.7% to 71.7±6.3% (P<0.001). When V1-receptors were blocked by 1 nM peptide V1-antagonist 1-(-mercapto-,-cyclopentamethylene propionic acid), 2-(O-methyl) Tyr]-Arg8]vasopressin, 1 nM AVP increased the fractional reabsorption of fluid by 8.9% of Na+ by 10.7% and of Cl– by 11.2%, as compared with the effect of AVP alone. The fractional reabsorption of Ca2+ after addition of AVP did not differ from control; when V1-receptors were blocked in the presence of AVP, the fractional reabsorption of Ca2+ was increased by AVP. The V1-receptor block in the presence of AVP did not change the fractional reabsorption of Mg2+. Experiments on the urinary bladder of the frogRana temporaria L. showed that 1 nM SR 49059, a non-peptide antagonist of V1a-receptors, like the peptide V1antagonist, enhanced the AVP effect by 29%. Inhibition of protein kinase C activity by calphostin C (1 nM) mimicked the effect of V1-antagonists; the AVP hydroosmotic effect was increased by 60%. The results obtained indicate that V1-receptors modulate the effects of V2-receptor activation: their block is accompanied by an enhancement of the AVP hydroosmotic effect in the frog urinary bladder and by an increase of Na+ and Cl– reabsorption in the newt early distal tubule. The enhancement of the AVP effect owing to the V1-receptor activation seems to be mediated by a decrease in protein kinase C activity. |
