Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) and consomic, salt-resistant SS-13(BN) rats possess substantial differences in blood pressure salt-sensitivity even with highly similar genetic backgrounds. The present study examined whether increased oxidative stress, particularly H2O2, in the renal medulla of SS rats contributes to these differences. Blood pressure was measured using femoral arterial catheters in three groups of rats: 1) 12-wk-old SS and consomic SS-13(BN) rats fed a 0.4% NaCl diet, 2) SS rats fed a 4% NaCl diet and chronically infused with saline or catalase (6.9 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) directly into the renal medulla, and 3) SS-13(BN) fed high salt (4%) and infused with saline or H2O2 (347 nmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) into the renal medullary interstitium. After chronic blood pressure measurements, renal medullary interstitial H2O2 concentration ([H2O2]) was collected by microdialysis and analyzed with Amplex red. Blood pressure and [H2O2] were both significantly higher in SS (126 +/- 3 mmHg and 145 +/- 17 nM, respectively) vs. SS-13(BN) rats (116 +/- 2 mmHg and 56 +/- 14 nM) fed a 0.4% diet. Renal interstitial catalase infusion significantly decreased [H2O2] (96 +/- 41 vs. 297 +/- 52 nM) and attenuated the hypertension (146 +/- 2 mmHg catalase vs. 163 +/- 4 mmHg saline) in SS rats after 5 days of high salt (4%). H2O2 infused into the renal medulla of consomic SS-13(BN) fed high salt (4%) for 7 days accentuated the salt sensitivity (145 +/- 2 mmHg H2O2 vs. 134 +/- 1 mmHg saline). [H2O2] was also increased in the treated group (83 +/- 1 nM H2O2 vs. 44 +/- 9 nM saline). These data show that medullary production of H2O2 may contribute to salt-induced hypertension in SS rats and that chromosome 13 of the Brown Norway contains gene(s) that protect against renal medullary oxidant stress.
