Implication

Salt-dependent bradykinin mediation of ACEI renal vasodilation in dogs; leaves open human translation and clinical relevance.

Structured PICO

Does bradykinin B2 receptor blockade alter the renal regional blood flow responses to ACE inhibition in dogs on normal versus low salt diets?

P
Population
28 dogs maintained on either a normal-salt diet (0.63%, 3 days, n = 14) or a low-salt diet (0.01%, 5 days, n = 14)
I
Intervention
ACE inhibition (enalaprilat, 33 micrograms/kg/min) evaluated before or after treatment with the bradykinin B2 receptor blocker icatibant (100-300 micrograms)
C
Comparator
Responses compared between normal-salt and low-salt diet groups, and before vs. after icatibant treatment
O
Outcome
Relative changes in renal medullary blood flow (MBF) and cortical blood flow (CBF)surrogate

In dogs, renal vasodilatory responses to ACE inhibition are primarily due to reduced angiotensin II under normal salt intake, but are markedly dependent on bradykinin B2 receptor activation under low salt intake.
