The intravenous injection of an extract of atrial myocardium into anesthetized rats during a hypotonic diuresis resulted in an increase in the renal excretion of water, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphate. There was an increase in urine concentration which was probably a result of the secretion of vasopressin since it did not occur in Brattleboro (di/di) rats. A transient increase in glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow occurred during the first five minutes with a more sustained rise in filtration fraction. Injection of atrial extract also caused a partial inhibition of solute-free water formation in Brattleboro rats subjected to water diuresis and a partial inhibition of solute-free water reabsorption in rats subjected to maximal antidiuresis by infusing vasopressin. In neither case was the degree of inhibition as profound as that observed after injecting furosemide in a dose which caused a comparable natriuretic response. A large dose of furosemide blocked the natriuretic response to atrial extracts whereas, when a comparable level of sodium and water output was produced by massive infusions of saline, the natriuretic response to atrial extract was increased. It is suggested that atrial natriuretic factor might inhibit sodium transport in nephron segments beyond the medullary thick ascending limb. Furosemide might also act at the same tubular site or inhibit tubular secretion of the atrial natriuretic factor.
