Levels of plasma renin activity (A), vasopressin (B) and aldosterone (C) in control and Adriamycin-treated (nephrotic) rats following isoproterenol (30 μg/kg, sc). Measures were obtained 45 min after injection. Isoproterenol caused significantly higher levels of plasma renin activity and aldosterone compared to control injections. Nephrotic animals had significantly reduced levels of plasma renin activity and aldosterone compared to control animals. There were no effects on plasma vasopressin levels. Values are means ± SE. cont = control; isop = isoproterenol; neph = nephrotic; sal = saline. * = main effect of nephrotic treatment, p < 0.01. †= main effect of isoproterenol, p < 0.01.
