The effects of endothelin on regional hemodynamics and renal function were studied in awake normotensive rats. Intravenous injection of endothelin (700 pmol/kg) transiently lowered mean blood pressure (from 108 +/- 2 to 84 +/- 2 mm Hg, p less than 0.01), due to a reduction in total vascular resistance (38 +/- 1%, p less than 0.01), and increased stroke volume (29 +/- 5%, p less than 0.01) and heart rate (from 399 +/- 18 to 447 +/- 18 bpm, p less than 0.05); mesenteric and renal blood flow was reduced (37 +/- 13, p less than 0.05 and 63 +/- 5%, p less than 0.01), whereas carotid blood flow was increased (78 +/- 5%, p less than 0.01). This effect was followed by long-lasting hypertension due to increased total vascular resistance (112 +/- 19%, p less than 0.01); stroke volume, mesenteric, and renal blood flow were reduced (34 +/- 5, 41 +/- 4, and 58 +/- 4%, respectively, p less than 0.05) and carotid blood flow returned to basal levels. Bilateral nephrectomy enhanced the initial hypotensive effect. Pretreatment with nifedipine blocked the hypertensive effect, whereas bilateral nephrectomy did not. A subpressor dose of endothelin (70 pmol/kg) had no effect on stroke volume, mesenteric blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, and plasma renin activity; carotid blood flow was transiently increased (48 +/- 16%, p less than 0.05), then returned to basal levels; renal blood flow decreased (22 +/- 6 and 15 +/- 4% at 30 s and 10 min, respectively p less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
