Renal collecting duct (CD)-specific knockout of endothelin-1 (ET-1) causes hypertension and impaired Na excretion. A previous study noted failure to suppress the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis in these knockout (KO) mice, hence the current investigation was undertaken to examine the role of this system in CD ET-1 KO. Renal renin content was similar in kidneys from CD ET-1 KO and control mice during normal Na intake; high-Na intake suppressed renal renin content to a similar degree in KO and control. Plasma renin concentrations paralleled changes in renal renin content. Valsartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), abolished the hypertension in CD ET-1 KO mice during normal Na intake. High-Na intake + ARB treatment increased blood pressure in CD ET-1 KO, but not in controls. High-Na intake was associated with reduced Na excretion in CD ET-1 KO animals, but no changes in water excretion or creatinine clearance were noted. Spironolactone, an aldosterone antagonist, also normalized blood pressure in CD ET-1 KO mice during normal Na intake, whereas high-Na intake + spironolactone raised blood pressure only in CD ET-1 KO animals. In summary, hypertension in CD ET-1 KO is partly due to angiotensin II and aldosterone. We speculate that CD-derived ET-1 may regulate, via a novel pathway, renal renin production.
