Efficacy of orally available, selective vasopressin V1 and V2 receptor antagonists on the developing and established stage of DOCA-salt hypertension was investigated. Twenty-nine Wistar rats were heminephrectomized, and administered DOCA (50 mg/kg; intraperitoneally twice a week) and salt (5% NaCl diet) from week 0 to the end of study. Group 1 rats were served as control. Group 2 and 5 rats were given a V1 antagonist, and groups 3 and 6 rats were given a V2 antagonist, while groups 4 and 7 rats received both V1 and V2 antagonists. Each drug was started to groups 2, 3 and 4 at week 0, and to groups 5, 6 and 7 at week 4. Significant amelioration of the increase in blood pressure was observed in groups 3 and 4 at week 10, and a reduction in blood pressure occurred in groups 6 and 7 at week 10. Otherwise, a V1 antagonist alone slightly attenuated blood pressure rise in the group 2 without significance, and failed to lower blood pressure of the group 5 during the study. These results suggest that both V1 and V2 agonisms are involved in an increase in blood pressure at the developing stage of DOCA-salt hypertension, and that V2 agonism, but not V1 plays a major role in the maintenance of high blood pressure at the established stage.
