Ozone can cause pulmonary edema and simultaneously decrease blood pressure. Atrial natriuretic peptides may mediate both of these affects since they increase pulmonary capillary permeability and are potent vasodilating peptides. To examine this possibility and determine if aged animals respond differently to ozone, adult (4-6 months old) and aged (24-26 months old) Fischer 344 rats were exposed to ozone (0.5 parts per million) for 8 h. Ozone increased atrial natriuretic peptides recognized by the proANF 1-30, proANF 31-67, and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) radioimmunoassays in lung from 3.7 ± 0.2, 3.5 ± 0.1, and 3.0 ± 0.2 ng/g of lung, respectively, to 9.7 ± 1.0, 9.2 ± 0.4, and 13.3 ± 2.7 ng/g in adult rats (n = 6) and from 3.6 ± 0.1,3.5 ± 0.1, and 3.2 ± 0.1 ng/g of lung of aged rats (n = 6) to 10.2 ± 0.3, 10.0 ± 0.2, and 12.6 ± 0.2 ng/g. Ozone increased the content of these peptides in the heart 2- to 5-fold from 266 ± 25, 226 ± 22, and 288 ± 40 ng/g of heart to 716 ± 26,471 ± 14, and 1,473 ± 235 ng/g in the same adult animals and from 495 ± 17, 483 ± 22, and 501 ± 18 ng/g to 903 ± 16,879 ± 21, and 1,489 ± 31 ng/g of heart in the aged animals. Ozone also doubled the concentration of these atrial natriuretic peptides in the circulatory system. This study demonstrates that ozone increases atrial natriuretic peptides in the lung, heart, and circulation of equal magnitude in aged versus adult animals, indicating an equal response to ozone with aging. This study further suggests that atrial natriuretic peptides may mediate the decreased blood pressure and pulmonary edema observed with ozone exposure.
