Neural mediation of natriuresis confirmed in dogs; hypothesis-generating for human volume regulation, should not yet change practice.
How does acute volume expansion affect renal hemodynamics and function in conscious dogs with intact versus denervated baroreceptors and vagus nerves?
This preclinical study demonstrates that vagal pathways play a significant role in mediating the diuretic and natriuretic responses to acute volume expansion in conscious dogs.
Sit et al. (1984) studied this question.
