title: [Increase in plasma levels of active and inactive renin after inhibition of renin activity by SR 42128 in conscious Macaca monkeys].
abstract: Plasma active renin (PAR), plasma inactive renin (PIR), and plasma renin activity (PRA) were determined after intravenous bolus injection of the renin inhibitor SR 42128, in sodium repleted and sodium depleted macacas. The kit renin of Pasteur Diagnostics allows determination of PAR after renin inhibition by SR 42128. PAR and total plasmatic renin (TPR) were determined before and after treatment of plasma using trypsin. IR = TPR-PAR. ARP was measured by RIA of angiotensin I. Sodium depletion induced a dramatic increase of PAR (1,678 + 11.5 pg/ml compared to 94.4 + 11.5, n = 6). PIR rose from 322.1 + 34.3 pg/ml to 1,137 + 206 (n = 6). In sodium repleted macacas, SR 42128 (3 mg/kg and 9 mg/kg) induced a PRA inhibition of 90 to 100 p. 100, for 4 h post-injection. PAR increased to reach maximal level after 90 min and remained constant up to 4 h post-injection (increase of 420 p. 100 at 3 mg/kg and 620 p. 100 at 9 mg/kg). PIR increased more slowly for 4 h (maximum increase of 250 p. 100). PRA was also inhibited in sodium depleted macacas by SR 42128 at the doses of 3 mg/kg and 9 mg/kg ARP was inhibited. PIR increased more slowly, but significantly at 9 mg/kg. We conclude that the activity of SR 42128 on PAR and PIR levels is the sole consequence of the inhibition of the Renin Angiotensin system.
