Dex increases urine output and decreases plasma osmolality. (A) The experimental protocol for urine and blood collection after saline, Dex or AVP administration. (B) Urine volume of each group within 6 h after injection of saline or Dex (n = 8 in the Saline, 50 μg/kg Dex and 200 μg/kg Dex group, n = 16 in the 100 μg/kg Dex group, n = 9 in the 100 μg/kg Dex-3 µg/kg AVP group). (C) Plasma osmolality of mice in each group 6 h after injection of saline or Dex (n = 8 in all groups). *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 indicate significant differences among the saline and Dex groups assessed using one-way ANOVA.
