title: Interaction of somatostatin with PTH and AVP: renal effects.
abstract: Six conscious intact dogs were studied to evaluate the interactions of somatostatin (SRIF) with exogenous antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). SRIF administration caused a significant increase in free water clearance compared to a vehicle-treated group: -0.91 (+/- 0.41 SD) ml/min to 0.21 (+/- 0.32 SD) ml/min in the experimental group (P less than 0.01) versus 0.21 (+/- 0.81 SD) ml/min to -0.21 (+/- 0.68 SD) ml/min in the control (P greater than 0.5). Six conscious, thyroparathyroidectomized dogs were studied to test the interaction of SRIF and parathyroid extract (PTE). There were no significant changes in the phosphaturic and hypocalciuric effects of PTE with SRIF administration. We conclude that acute systemic SRIF administration interferes with the antidiuretic action of AVP, probably at the renal-tubular level, but does not antagonize the renal actions of PTE.
