Abstract:
Aim To establish a reliable and practical rat model with hypertension induced by DOCA-Salt.Methods One week after nephrectomy,the rats were subcutaneously injected with DOCA (30 mg?kg-1) once a week and fed with a chaw with 10 g?L-1NaCl plus 2 g?L-1 KCl in drinking water for 4 weeks. Blood pressure was measured and,urine was collected for measurement of volume(UV),UNaV,UClV,UKV,UCaV and pH values,once a week. SGPT,CREA,SUGA,TRIG,CHOL,INS,ALD,ADH were measured in circulating blood samples. Kidney morphological changes and Na+,K+-ATPase activity of the renal tubular epithelial cells were also examined. Results Blood pressure,UV,UNaV and UClV were increased and histopathological changes of the kidney such as glomerulus sclerosis and tubular pachynsis were observed in the DOCA-Salt rats. Whereas UKV,UCaV,urine pH values,SGPT,CREA,SUGA,TRIG,CHOL,INS,ALD and ADH were not changed. In contrast,Na+,K+-ATPase activity of the renal tubular epithelial cells was decreased. Conclusion DOCA-Salt is a reliable hypertensive model with sodium retention.
