Implication of the brain atrial natriuretic polypeptide on the vasopressin release was investigated using rats fed with a high-sodium containing diet. Sodium loading increased not only the blood pressure but also the urinary output of vasopressin significantly. The plasma vasopressin concentration increased about 10 times after the intracerebroventricular injections of angiotensin II. Thereby, magnitude of the response was significantly smaller in the rat fed with a high sodium diet than in rats with the regular-diet. The hypothalamic content of both vasopressin and atrial natriuretic polypeptide was significantly larger in the high-salt group than the regular-salt. The intraventricular injections of atrial natriuretic polypeptide abolished the vasopressin release induced by the intraventricular injections of angiotensin II. These results indicate that the vasopressin production in the hypothalamus is increased, but the release is relatively suppressed in the sodium-loaded rats, and that increased hypothalamic atrial natriuretic polypeptide is involved in the suppression of the vasopressin release and in decreasing their sodium appetite to avoid the high sodium environment.
