Effects of 3-day subpressor AngII infusion on (A) renal cortical angiotensinogen expression, (B) urinary angiotensinogen excretion, and (C) natriuretic response to saline challenge. Immunoblots of cortical (A) and urinary (B) angiotensinogen of rats infused with either vehicle (Control o) or AngII () (= 7). (A) 20 and 10 μg renal cortical protein loaded per lane. Relative abundance displayed as individual records with means ± SEM, (B) 0.02% of overnight urine volume before minipump implantation (day 1) and before sacrifice (day +3) displayed as paired arbitrary density units connected by either dotted lines (controls) or solid lines (AngII group); (C) at baseline, then repeated after 3 days of AngII infusion, rats were challenged with an i.p. bolus of saline equivalent of 7% of their body weight and placed in metabolic cages for urine collection (= 4). Results are displayed as paired urinary Na+ excretion (UNaV) collected over 4 h, connected by solid lines.
