In the kidney it can induce vasoconstriction or vasodilation, depending on the prevailing stimulation of A1 or A2 receptors (A1R, A2R). ADO-induced alterations of renal excretion may be secondary to haemodynamic changes, or reflect a direct influence on tubular transport. This whole-kidney study explored renal excretory responses to ADO receptor stimulation as related to renal haemodynamics sodium intake and cytochrome P450 (CYP-450) activity.METHODS: The effects of ADO or an A2aR agonist (DPMA) on urine flow (V), sodium excretion (UNaV) and total solute excretion were examined in anaesthetized Wistar rats on a low-sodium or high-sodium (HS) diet. Total renal blood flow (RBF; renal artery probe), and outer- and inner-medullary blood flows (OM-BF, IM-BF; laser-Doppler fluxes) were also determined.RESULTS: Consistent opposed effects of ADO and DPMA were only observed with the HS diet. ADO increased V (150%) and UNaV (100%); there were also significant increases in RBF, OM-BF and IM-BF. These changes were prevented by 1-aminobenzotriazol, a CYP-450 inhibitor. In HS rats, DPMA significantly decreased arterial blood pressure and renal excretion.CONCLUSIONS: Post-ADO diuresis/natriuresis was in part secondary to renal hyperperfusion; the response was probably mediated by CYP-450-dependent active agents. Selective A2aR stimulation induced systemic vasodilation, major hypotension, and a secondary decrease in renal excretion}, type={Text}, title={Adenosine effects on renal functionin the rat: role of sodium intake and cytochrome P450}, volume={123}, number={1-2}, journal={Nephron Physiology}, publisher={Karger}, keywords={Adenosine, Sodium intake, Kidney -- Physiology, Adenosine--analogs & derivatives, Renal Circulation--physiology}, }
