We tested the hypothesis that K+intake is sensed by putative K+sensors in the splanchnic areas, and renal K+handling is regulated by this signal. K+was infused for 2 h into overnight-fasted rats via the jugular vein (systemic infusion), hepatic portal vein (intraportal infusion), or stomach (intragastric infusion) (n= 5 each), and plasma K+concentration ([K+]) and renal K+excretion were measured during the 2-h preinfusion, 2-h K+infusion, and 3-h washout periods. During systemic K+infusion, plasma [K+] increased by ∼1.3 mM (P< 0.05), and, on cessation of the K+infusion, plasma [K+] fell to the preinfusion level within 1–2 h. Renal K+excretion changed in proportion to the changes in plasma [K+]. During intraportal or intragastric K+infusion, plasma [K+] and renal K+excretion profiles were similar to those with systemic infusion. The effects of K+infusions via the different routes (n= 5 or 6 each) were also studied during simultaneous feeding of overnight-fasted rats with a K+-deficient diet. During the meal, intraportal infusion resulted in increases in plasma [K+] similar to those with the systemic K+infusion, while intragastric K+infusion did not significantly increase plasma [K+]. Thus, when the intragastric K+infusion was combined with a meal, there was marked enhancement of clearance of the K+infused, which was associated with an apparent increase in renal efficiency of K+excretion. These data suggest that there may be a gut factor that enhances renal efficiency of K+excretion during meal (or dietary K+) intake.
