Abstract
There are several evidences on the effects of atrial natriuretic peptide on aldosterone output in intact animals (1) in human (2) and in vitro (3), but the results are variable. To study this discrepancy, the behaviour of aldosterone output was evaluated in isolated and superfused bovine adrenal glands during superfusion with human alfa atrial natriuretic alfa peptide (h-alfa-ANP) alone, with angiotensin II (AII) or dopaminergic drug antagonist metaclopramide (MCP).
