The effect of indomethacin (10 mg/kg) on the distribution of cortical blood flow during postocclusive reactive hyperemia was evaluated in denervated kidneys of anesthetized rabbits by the radioactive microsphere technique. Renal denervation caused a slight but not significant increase in renal blood flow with no remarkable alteration in the distribution of cortical blood flow. After release of 1-min occlusion of the renal artery, hyperemic responses developed with a fractional flow redistribution toward the inner cortex. The absolute perfusion rate increased in the inner cortex but did not significantly change in the outer cortex. Indomethacin produced a decrease in renal blood flow despite elevated blood pressure. Even in the indomethacin-treated animals, postocclusive reactive hyperemia appeared concomitantly with the fractional flow redistribution to the inner cortex. The percentage repayment by reactive hyperemia of ischemia during the artery clamping was not significantly different before and after indomethacin administration. The findings indicate that indomethacin did not significantly affect the postocclusive vascular response in denervated kidneys of rabbits, thereby giving evidence against the role of prostaglandins as mediators of reactive hyperemia.
