  • Title: In ability of Na+,K+-ATPase inhibitor to cause hypertension in sodium-loaded or deoxycorticosterone-treated one kidney rats.
    Author: Nirasawa Y, Temma K, Fink GD, Akera T.
    Journal: Life Sci; 1985 Aug 26; 37(8):767-74. PubMed ID: 2991692.
    Abstract:
    The role of an endogenous inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase in hypertension observed in one-kidney NaCl-loaded rats treated with deoxycorticosterone (DOC) was examined. Ouabain or digitoxin, an exogenous inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase, failed to cause hypertension in one-kidney NaCl-loaded rats without DOC treatment or one-kidney DOC-treated rats without NaCl loading. Moreover, neither ouabain nor digitoxin acted additively with a putative endogenous inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase to augment hypertension observed in one-kidney NaCl-loaded rats treated with DOC. The results do not support the hypothesis that an endogenous inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase plays an important role in the development or maintenance of hypertension in this animal model.
