Hypotensive hemorrhage paradoxically decreases renal sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and heart rate (HR) in normal rats. Interruption of vagal reflexes by cervical vagotomy prevents these inhibitory responses but does not unmask expected increases in either renal SNA or HR. Arginine vasopressin (AVP), which increases markedly during hemorrhage, may also exert an inhibitory action on responses of renal SNA and HR to hemorrhage. We tested the hypothesis that inhibition of renal SNA and HR by hemorrhage is absent in AVP-deficient diabetes insipidus (DI) rats and is restored by intravenous AVP replacement (1 mU.kg-1.min-1 before hemorrhage and 10 mU.kg-1.min-1 during hemorrhage). We also determined whether vagotomy unmasks significant increases in renal SNA and HR during hemorrhage in DI rats and whether AVP replacement prevents these increases. Under chloralose anesthesia, hemorrhage to 50 mmHg mean arterial pressure for 8 min did not decrease renal SNA or HR in AVP-deficient DI rats but decreased (P less than 0.05) renal SNA and HR in normal Long-Evans rats and in DI rats receiving AVP replacement. After vagotomy, hemorrhage increased (P less than 0.05) renal SNA and HR in AVP-deficient DI rats but did not alter renal SNA or HR in Long-Evans rats and AVP-treated DI rats. Thus renal SNA and HR during hemorrhage were consistently higher (P less than 0.05) in AVP-deficient DI rats compared with Long-Evans or AVP-treated DI rats both before and after vagotomy. In addition, vagotomy attenuated the inhibitory action of AVP on the response of HR but not the response of renal SNA to hemorrhage in DI rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
