Increased loop chloride uptake precedes hypertension in Dahl salt-sensitive rats

K. A. Kirchner
Department of Medicine, University of Mississippi Medical Center, Jackson 39216-4505.

When studied at equivalent renal perfusion pressures, loop segment chloride reabsorption is greater in hypertensive Dahl salt-sensitive (S) than Dahl salt-resistant (R) rats. To determine whether this difference in loop reabsorption is present before the onset of hypertension, volume expanded and euvolemic Dahl rats maintained on low NaCl diets were examined using micropuncture and in vivo microperfusion techniques. Neuroendocrine differences between groups were eliminated by renal denervation and fixing plasma aldosterone, norepinephrine, and vasopressin levels. After volume expansion, urinary NaCl excretion was less in S than R rats. Early distal tubule fluid-to-plasma chloride and inulin (TF/PCl/IN) ratio and chloride delivery were also less while loop chloride reabsorption was greater in S rats. Proximal delivery was not different between groups. In euvolemia, urinary NaCl excretion and loop chloride reabsorption were not different between S and R rats. However, when loop chloride delivery was increased by microperfusion techniques, lower distal TF/PCl/IN ratios and greater loop chloride reabsorption were clearly demonstrated in euvolemic S rats. Thus loop chloride reabsorption is greater in S than R rats before the development of hypertension. This difference depends on increasing delivery rates for its manifestation.
