dc.description.abstract
The present study was performed to examine the role of the endogenous beta-endorphinergic system on blood pressure regulation, sympathetic and brain activity during body sodium overload. Beta-endorphin knockout (beta end-/-), heterozygous (beta end+/-) and wild-type (beta end+/+) mice were submitted for two weeks to either a normal- or a high-sodium diet (NSD and HSD, respectively), and systolic blood pressure (SBP), urinary catecholamines (as an index of sympathetic nervous system activity), and the brain pattern of Fos-like immunoreactivity (as a marker of neuronal activation) were evaluated in each group. HSD caused a significant increase in SBP in beta end-/- mutant mice compared with beta end+/+ mice kept in the same experimental conditions (P < 0.01), but no statistical differences were observed between beta end+/- and beta end+/+ on a HSD. Moreover, when animals from the three genetic lines were fed with a NSD no changes in SBP were evidenced. With regard to brain activity, beta end-/- mice maintained on a HSD showed a significant increase in Fos-like immunoreactive neurons in the median preoptic nucleus (P < 0.01) compared with beta end+/- and beta end+/+ animals. Additionally, beta end-/- mice had higher levels of urinary epinephrine excretion (P < 0.05) on a HSD in comparison to beta end+/+ and beta end+/- animals in the same experimental conditions. No differences, however, were registered in norepinephrine and dopamine urinary excretion in animals from the three genetic lines after two weeks on either a HSD or a NSD. In summary, our results indicate that the beta-endorphinergic system may play a part in the compensatory response to sodium overload, since the absence of beta-endorphin causes an increase in systolic blood pressure, and increases median preoptic nucleus neural activity and urinary epinephrine excretion.
