Both aldosterone and desoxycorticosterone (DOC) over a relatively wide range of concentrations failed to potentiate the positive inotropic effect of angiotensin and of norepinephrine in the isolated cat papillary muscle. Lowering the concentration of calcium in the bathing medium did not alter this relationship. Lowering the concentration of sodium in the medium itself reduced the inotropic responsiveness of the isolated cardiac muscle to 5×10−7M angiotensin. Raising the concentration of sodium enhanced the positive inotropic effect of angiotensin. This enhancement seems to be independent of changes in osmolarity of the solution. Altering the concentration of potassium did not have any significant influence on the angiotensin response. Prior reserpinization of the cat did not alter the inotropic response to angiotensin, nor did it block the enhanced effect seen in the presence of an elevated level of sodium. Therefore, the enhancement probably does not depend on the release of catecholamines stored in cardiac tissue. Altering the concentration of sodium in the medium did not modify the positive inotropic response to 4×10−8M norepinephrine.The findings in this study do not completely account for the mechanism of potentiation of angiotensin by mineralocorticoids reported in vivo. However, they strongly suggest that the potentiation of the cardiac effects of angiotensin seen in the intact dog is mediated by the sodium-retaining effects of these hormones in vivo.
