Renal and cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II in the rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri.
The renal and cardiovascular effects of an intravenous infusion of angiotensin II in the freshwater anaesthetised rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, have been reappraised, without the infusion of noradrenaline. In these fish the previously reported antidiuretic response to angiotensin II was not maintained although a systemic pressor response persisted and the tubular transport maximum for glucose remained depressed. The data suggest that angiotensin has an intrarenal action which may play a role in renal adaptation to increased environmental salinities.
