Influence of Intraventricular Bethanidine on the Renal Function of the Rabbit

Bethanidine was administered into the lateral ventricle of the rabbit brain for the investigation of the effect on the renal function in doses ranging from 0.1 to 1.0mg/kg. In a dose of 0.1mg/kg, bethanidine did not exhibit significant changes on the renal function of the rabbit, on the other hand, in the doses of 0.3 and 1.0mg/kg bethanidine elicited the reduction of renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate with a marked antidiuresis, at the same time bethanidine produced the decrement of urinary sodium and potassium excretion. After intravenous pretreatment of phentolamine, intraventricular bethanidine in a dose of 0.3mg/kg did not produced the antidiuresis and the decrement of urinary sodium and potassium excretion, whereas renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate reduced as before of phentolamine pretreatment although the durations of their reduction were shortened. These observations suggest that bethanidine induces the antidiuresis through the centrally mediated mechanism which interposed other factors in addition to sympathetic stimulation affected by phentolamine, alpha adrenergic blocking agent.
