Abstract

Angiotensin II was used as a probe to study the effect of changes in perfusate flow rate on the renal clearance parameters of furosemide in the isolated perfused rat kidney. Drug studies were performed in three rats with no angiotensin II present in the perfusate (treatment I) and in three rats with a 2.7 ng/min infusion of angiotensin II into the perfusate (treatment II). Furosemide was introduced into the recirculating perfusate at an initial concentration of 3.5 micrograms/ml and was assayed using HPLC. The protein binding of furosemide in perfusate was determined by equilibrium dialysis. Angiotensin II was found to have a dramatic effect on the renal hemodynamics, resulting in a 42% decrease in perfusate flow, a 27% decrease in GFR, and a 25% increase in filtration fraction. Values for the fractional excretion of glucose were very low and consistent, with or without angiotensin II (3.0-3.5%). Although the fraction unbound of furosemide was unchanged between treatments (0.770 for treatment I vs. 0.695% for treatment II), the renal and secretion clearances of furosemide were reduced by about 30% in the presence of angiotensin II. However, if the renal clearance (CLr) was corrected for free fraction (fu) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) [ER = CLr/(fu.GFR)], there was no difference between the excretion ratio (ER) values of furosemide after the two treatments (29.0 for treatment I vs. 29.6 for treatment II). These results imply that the altered clearance parameters of furosemide are more likely the consequence of a reduction in functional nephron mass rather than a change in intrinsic secretory transport per unit mass of nephron.
