Abstract
Estrogens reduce 0.3 M NaCl intake and palatability in a widely used model of essential hypertension, the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Here we investigated whether the inhibitory effects of β-estradiol (E2, 10 μg/kg b.w. subcutaneously for 8 days) on water deprived partially-rehydrated (WD-PR) ovariectomized (OVX) adult female SHRs (fSHRs, n = 4-10/group) are related to interferences on brain angiotensin II AT1 receptors (AT1r). After WD-PR, E2 reduced 0.3 M NaCl intake (1.3 ± 0.6, vs. vehicle: 3.5 ± 1.2 ml/30 min), the number of hedonic responses to intraoral NaCl infusion (57 ± 11, vs. vehicle: 176 ± 32/min), and the relative angiotensin AT1r (Agtr1a) mRNA expression in the hypothalamus. Losartan (AT1r antagonist, 100 μg) intracerebroventricularly in OVX fSHRs treated with vehicle subcutaneously abolished 0.3 M NaCl intake (0.1 ± 0.1 ml/30 min) and only transiently reduced hedonic responses to intraoral NaCl. Losartan combined with E2 decreased the number of hedonic and increased the number of aversive responses to intraoral NaCl and abolished 0.3 M NaCl intake. E2 also reduced the pressor and dipsogenic responses to intracerebroventricular angiotensin II. The results suggest that AT1r activation increases palatability and induces NaCl intake in WD-PR fSHRs. E2 reduced hypothalamic Agtr1a mRNA expression, which may account for the effects of E2 on NaCl intake and palatability and intracerebroventricular angiotensin II-induced pressor and dipsogenic responses in OVX fSHRs. Future studies considering natural fluctuations in estrogen secretion might help to determine the degree of such interference in brain neuronal activity.

Abstract
Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) ingest more NaCl than normotensive strains. Here we investigated NaCl intake and taste reactivity in adult male SHRs and normotensive Holtzman rats treated or not with AT1 receptor antagonist centrally in euhydrated condition and after fluid depletion. Taste reactivity was measured by the number of orofacial expressions to intra-oral infusions of 0.3 M NaCl. In euhydrated condition, intra-oral infusions of 0.3 M NaCl produced greater number of hedonic responses in SHRs than in normotensive rats, without differences in the number of aversive responses. Compared to euhydrated condition, the treatment with the diuretic furosemide + low dose of captopril (angiotensin converting enzyme blocker) increased the number of hedonic and reduced the number of aversive responses to intra-oral NaCl in normotensive rats, without changing the number of hedonic or aversive responses in SHRs. Losartan (AT1 receptor antagonist, 100 ng/1 μl) injected intracerebroventricularly in SHRs abolished 0.3 M NaCl intake induced by water deprivation + partial rehydration, whereas only transiently (first 30 min of the 60 min test) reduced hedonic responses, without changes in aversive responses to intra-oral NaCl. Losartan intracerebroventricularly also only transiently (first 30 min) reduced the number of hedonic responses to intra-oral NaCl in euhydrated SHRs. The results suggest that NaCl palatability is increased and independent from body fluid balance in SHRs. The results also suggest that central AT1 receptors are part of the mechanisms activated to increase NaCl intake and palatability in SHRs. A partial dissociation between NaCl intake and palatability in SHRs is also suggested.

Blockade of ERK1/2 activation with U0126 or PEP7 reduces sodium appetite and angiotensin II-induced pressor responses in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Peptides 2021; 136:170439. [PMID: 33166587 DOI: 10.1016/j.peptides.2020.170439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2020] [Revised: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 10/27/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) have increased daily or induced sodium intake compared to normotensive rats. In normotensive rats, angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced sodium intake is blocked by the inactivation of p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase, also known as extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase1/2 (ERK1/2). Here we investigated if inhibition of ERK1/2 pathway centrally would change sodium appetite and intracerebroventricular (icv) ANG II-induced pressor response in SHRs. SHRs (280-330 g, n = 07-14/group) with stainless steel cannulas implanted in the lateral ventricle (LV) were used. Water and 0.3 M NaCl intake was induced by the treatment with the diuretic furosemide + captopril (angiotensin converting enzyme blocker) subcutaneously or 24 h of water deprivation (WD) followed by 2 h of partial rehydration with only water (PR). The blockade of ERK1/2 activation with icv injections of U0126 (MEK1/2 inhibitor, 2 mM; 2 μl) reduced 0.3 M NaCl intake induced by furosemide + captopril (5.0 ± 1.0, vs. vehicle: 7.3 ± 0.7 mL/120 min) or WD-PR (4.6 ± 1.3, vs. vehicle: 10.3 ± 1.4 mL/120 min). PEP7 (selective inhibitor of AT1 receptor-mediated ERK1/2 activation, 2 nmol/2 μL) icv also reduced WD-PR-induced 0.3 M NaCl (2.8 ± 0.7, vs. vehicle: 6.8 ± 1.4 mL/120 min). WD-PR-induced water intake was also reduced by U0126 or PEP7. In addition, U0126 or PEP7 icv reduced the pressor response to icv ANG II. Therefore, the present results suggest that central AT1 receptor-mediated ERK1/2 activation is part of the mechanisms involved in sodium appetite and ANG II-induced pressor response in SHRs.

Abstract
Injection of muscimol, a GABAA receptor agonist, into the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) induces 0.3 M NaCl intake in rats. In the present work, we investigated whether such an effect applies to hypertonic (0.3 M) mineral solutions in general or is selective to sodium solutions in a 240 min intake test. Muscimol injection (0.5 nmol/0.2 μL) compared to vehicle injection into the LPBN of adult hydrated rats produced a preferential ingestion of 0.3 M NaCl (25.3 ± 10.2 mL) followed by a 0.3 M NaHCO3 intake (11.7 ± 5.6 mL), with no significant effect on water, KCl and CaCl2 intake. Only the effect of muscimol on NaCl intake (19.0 ± 10.4 mL) persisted in cell-dehydrated rats, with hardly any effect on water or other mineral solutions. The results suggest that the LPBN controls the ingestion of hypertonic NaCl and NaHCO3. They also suggest a selective mechanisms involving the LPBN to check hypertonic sodium intake.

Abstract
The ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) of rats has reciprocal connections with the gustatory and the hedonic impact coding structures. The main goal of the present study was to investigate the involvement of local neurons of vmPFC and their catecholaminergic innervations in taste preference and taste reactivity test. Therefore, kainate or 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesions were performed in the vmPFC by iontophoretic method. In the first experiment, taste preference was tested to 250 mM and 500 mM glucose solutions over water in two-bottle choice test. In the second experiment, taste reactivity was examined to 4 concentrations of glucose solutions (250 mM, 500 mM, 750 mM and 1000 mM) and 4 concentrations of quinine solutions (0.125 mM, 0.25 mM, 1.25 mM and 2.5 mM). Our results showed, that kainate microlesion of vmPFC did not modify the preference of 250 mM and 500 mM glucose solutions in two-bottle choice test. In contrast, 6-OHDA microlesion of vmPFC resulted in increased preference to the higher concentration of glucose (500 mM) solution over water. Results of taste reactivity test showed that kainate lesion resulted in more ingestive and less rejective responses to 750 mM glucose solution and elevated rejectivity to the higher concentrations (1.25 mM and 2.5 mM) of quinine solutions. 6-OHDA lesion of vmPFC increased the number of ingestive responses to highly concentrated (500 mM, 750 mM and 1000 mM) glucose solutions and decreased the number of ingestive responses to the lower concentration (0.125 mM) of quinine solution. The present data provide evidence for the important role of vmPFC neurons and catecholaminergic innervation of the vmPFC in the regulation of hedonic evaluation of tastes and in the hedonic consummatory behavior.

Abstract
Central cholinergic activation stimulates water intake, but also NaCl intake when the inhibitory mechanisms are blocked with injections of moxonidine (α2 adrenergic/imidazoline agonist) into the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN). In the present study, we investigated the involvement of central M1 and M2 muscarinic receptors on NaCl intake induced by pilocarpine (non-selective muscarinic agonist) intraperitoneally combined with moxonidine into the LPBN or by muscimol (GABAA agonist) into the LPBN. Male Holtzman rats with stainless steel cannulas implanted bilaterally in the LPBN and in the lateral ventricle were used. Pirenzepine (M1 muscarinic antagonist, 1 nmol/1 μl) or methoctramine (M2 muscarinic antagonist, 50 nmol/1 μL) injected intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) reduced 0.3 M NaCl and water intake in rats treated with pilocarpine (0.1 mg/100 g of body weight) injected intraperitoneally combined with moxonidine (0.5 nmol/0.2 μL) into the LPBN. In rats treated with muscimol (0.5 nmol/0.2 μL) into the LPBN, methoctramine i.c.v. also reduced 0.3 M NaCl and water intake, however, pirenzepine produced no effect. The results suggest that M1 and M2 muscarinic receptors activate central pathways involved in the control of water and sodium intake that are under the influence of the LPBN inhibitory mechanisms.

Abstract
The lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) is a pontine area involved in cardiovascular chemoreflex. This study was performed to find the effects of reversible synaptic blockade of the LPBN on the chemoreflex responses, and to find the roles of GABAA receptor and α2-adenoreceptor (α2-AR) in chemoreflex. It also aimed to seek possible interaction between GABA and noradrenergic systems of the LPBN in urethane-anesthetized male rats. Cardiovascular chemoreflex was activated by intravenous injection of potassium cyanide (KCN, 80 μg/kg). The cardiovascular responses of chemoreflex were evaluated before (control), 5 and 15 min after microinjection of each drug (100 nl) into the LPBN. Microinjections of cobalt chloride (5 mM), a reversible synaptic blocker, into the LPBN greatly attenuated the chemoreflex pressor and bradycardic responses indicating that the LPBN plays a main role in chemoreflex. Local injection of yohimbine (10 nmol), an α2-AR antagonist, attenuated the pressor response with no effect on bradycardic response, suggesting that α2-adrenoreceptors are involved in producing the pressor response of the chemoreflex. Microinjection of bicuculline methiodide (BMI, 100 pmol), a GABAA antagonist, into the LPBN augmented the pressor response and attenuated the bradycardic response, indicating that GABA inhibits the sympathetic output to the heart and vasculature. Sequential injection of yohimbine and BMI had no significant effect on the pressor response but attenuated the bradycardia. In conclusion, the LPBN is essential for the chemoreflex responses. The pressor response of the chemoreflex, at least partly, is produced by α2- adenoreceptors. GABA in the LPBN inhibits the cardiovascular system. Finally, there is no interaction between GABAergic and adrenergic neurons of the LPBN in producing the cardiovascular chemoreflex.

Abstract
The administration of cholinergic agonists like pilocarpine intraperitoneally (i.p.) or carbachol intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) induces water, but non significant hypertonic NaCl intake. These treatments also produce pressor responses, which may inhibit sodium intake. Noradrenaline (NOR) acting on α2-adrenoceptors in the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) deactivates inhibitory mechanisms increasing fluid depletion-induced sodium intake. In the present study, we investigated: (1) water and 1.8% NaCl intake in rats treated with pilocarpine i.p. or carbachol i.c.v. combined with NOR into the LPBN; (2) if inhibitory signals from cardiovascular receptors are blocked by NOR in the LPBN. Male Holtzman rats with stainless steel guide-cannulas implanted in the lateral ventricle and bilaterally in the LPBN were used. Bilateral injections of NOR (80nmol/0.2μl) into the LPBN decreased water intake (0.8±0.3, vs. saline (SAL): 2.9±0.3ml/180min) induced by pilocarpine (1mg/kg of body weight) i.p., without changing 1.8% NaCl intake (0.8±2.4, vs. SAL: 0.5±0.3ml/180min). Prazosin (1mg/kg of body weight) i.p. blocked pressor responses and increased water and 1.8% NaCl intake (6.3±1.7 and 14.7±3.5ml/180min, respectively) in rats treated with pilocarpine combined with NOR into the LPBN. Prazosin i.p. also increased 1.8% NaCl intake in rats treated with carbachol i.c.v combined with NOR into the LPBN. The results suggest that different signals inhibit sodium intake in rats treated with cholinergic agonists, among them those produced by increases of arterial pressure that are not efficiently deactivated by NOR acting in the LPBN.

Abstract
The activation of α2-adrenoceptors with bilateral injections of moxonidine (α2-adrenoceptor and imidazoline receptor agonist) into the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) increases 1.8% NaCl intake induced by treatment with furosemide (FURO)+captopril (CAP) subcutaneously. In the present study, we analyzed licking microstructure during water and 1.8% NaCl intake to investigate the changes in orosensory and postingestive signals produced by moxonidine injected into the LPBN. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with FURO+CAP combined with bilateral injections of vehicle or moxonidine (0.5 nmol/0.2 μl) into the LPBN. Bilateral injections of moxonidine into the LPBN increased FURO+CAP-induced 1.8% NaCl intake, without changing water intake. Microstructural analysis of licking behavior found that this increase in NaCl intake was a function of increased number of licking bursts from 15 to 75 min of the test (maximum of 49±9 bursts/bin, vs. vehicle: 2±2 bursts/bin). Analysis of the first 15 min of the test, when most of the licking behavior occurred, found no effect of moxonidine on the number of licks/burst for sodium intake (24±5 licks/burst, vs. vehicle: 27±8 licks/burst). This finding suggests that activation of α2-adrenoceptors in the LPBN affects postingestive signals that are important to inhibit and limit sodium intake by FURO+CAP-treated rats.

Abstract
Central α2-adrenoceptors and the pontine lateral parabrachial nucleus
(LPBN) are involved in the control of sodium and water intake. Bilateral injections
of moxonidine (α2-adrenergic/imidazoline receptor agonist) or
noradrenaline into the LPBN strongly increases 0.3 M NaCl intake induced by a
combined treatment of furosemide plus captopril. Injection of moxonidine into the
LPBN also increases hypertonic NaCl and water intake and reduces oxytocin secretion,
urinary sodium, and water excreted by cell-dehydrated rats, causing a positive sodium
and water balance, which suggests that moxonidine injected into the LPBN deactivates
mechanisms that restrain body fluid volume expansion. Pretreatment with specific
α2-adrenoceptor antagonists injected into the LPBN abolishes the
behavioral and renal effects of moxonidine or noradrenaline injected into the same
area, suggesting that these effects depend on activation of LPBN
α2-adrenoceptors. In fluid-depleted rats, the palatability of sodium is
reduced by ingestion of hypertonic NaCl, limiting intake. However, in rats treated
with moxonidine injected into the LPBN, the NaCl palatability remains high, even
after ingestion of significant amounts of 0.3 M NaCl. The changes in behavioral and
renal responses produced by activation of α2-adrenoceptors in the LPBN are
probably a consequence of reduction of oxytocin secretion and blockade of inhibitory
signals that affect sodium palatability. In this review, a model is proposed to show
how activation of α2-adrenoceptors in the LPBN may affect palatability
and, consequently, ingestion of sodium as well as renal sodium excretion.

Abstract
Injections of noradrenaline into the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) increase arterial pressure and 1.8% NaCl intake and decrease water intake in rats treated with the diuretic furosemide (FURO) combined with a low dose of the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril (CAP). In the present study, we investigated the influence of the pressor response elicited by noradrenaline injected into the LPBN on FURO+CAP-induced water and 1.8% NaCl intake. Male Holtzman rats with bilateral stainless steel guide-cannulas implanted into LPBN were used. Bilateral injections of noradrenaline (40 nmol/0.2 μl) into the LPBN increased FURO+CAP-induced 1.8% NaCl intake (12.2±3.5, vs., saline: 4.2±0.8 ml/180 min), reduced water intake and strongly increased arterial pressure (50±7, vs. saline: 1±1 mmHg). The blockade of the α1 adrenoceptors with the prazosin injected intraperitoneally abolished the pressor response and increased 1.8% NaCl and water intake in rats treated with FURO+CAP combined with noradrenaline injected into the LPBN. The deactivation of baro and perhaps volume receptors due to the cardiovascular effects of prazosin is a mechanism that may facilitate water and NaCl intake in rats treated with FURO+CAP combined with noradrenaline injected into the LPBN. Therefore, the activation of α2 adrenoceptors with noradrenaline injected into the LPBN, at least in dose tested, may not completely remove the inhibitory signals produced by the activation of the cardiovascular receptors, particularly the signals that result from the extra activation of these receptors with the increase of arterial pressure.

Involvement of brain ANG II in acute sodium depletion induced salty taste changes. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2012; 179:15-22.

Abstract
Many investigations have been devoted to determining the role of angiotensin II (ANG II) and aldosterone (ALD) in sodium-depletion-induced sodium appetite, but few were focused on the mechanisms mediating the salty taste changes accompanied with sodium depletion. To further elucidate the mechanism of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) action in mediating sodium intake behavior and accompanied salty taste changes, the present study examined the salty taste function changes accompanied with sodium depletion induced by furosemide (Furo) combined with different doses of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, captopril (Cap). Both the peripheral and central RAAS activity and the nuclei Fos immunoreactivity (Fos-ir) expression in the forebrain area were investigated. Results showed that sodium depletion induced by Furo+low-Cap increased taste preference for hypertonic NaCl solution with amplified brain action of ANG II but without peripheral action, while Furosemide combined with a high dose of captopril can partially inhibit the formation of brain ANG II, with parallel decreased effects on salty taste changes. And the resulting elevating forebrain ANG II may activate a variety of brain areas including SFO, PVN, SON and OVLT in sodium depleted rats injected with Furo+low-Cap, which underlines salty taste function and sodium intake behavioral changes. Neurons in SFO and OVLT may be activated mainly by brain ANG II, while PVN and SON activation may not be completely ANG II dependent. These findings suggested that forebrain derived ANG II may play a critical role in the salty taste function changes accompanied with acute sodium depletion.
