Elevated renal afferent nerve (ARNA) activity or dysfunctional reno-renal reflexes via altered ARNA sensitivity contribute to hypertension and chronic kidney disease. These nerves contain mechano- and chemosensitive fibers that respond to ischemia, changes in intrarenal pressures, and chemokines. Most studies have utilized various anesthetized preparations and exclusively male animals to characterize ARNA responses. Therefore, this study assessed the impact of anesthesia, sex, and circadian period on ARNA responses and sensitivity. Multifiber ARNA recordings were performed in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats (250–400 g) and compared across decerebrate versus Inactin, isoflurane, and urethane anesthesia groups. Intrarenal artery infusion of capsaicin (0.1–50.0 μM, 0.05 mL) produced concentration-dependent increases in ARNA; however, the ARNA sensitivity was significantly greater in decerebrate versus Inactin, isoflurane, and urethane groups. Increases in renal pelvic pressure (0–30 mmHg, 30 s) produced pressure-dependent increases in ARNA; however, ARNA sensitivity was again greater in decerebrate and Inactin groups versus isoflurane and urethane. Acute renal artery occlusion (30 s) increased ARNA, but responses did not differ across groups. Analysis of ARNA responses to increased pelvic pressure between male and female rats revealed significant sex differences only in isoflurane and urethane groups. ARNA responses to intrarenal capsaicin infusion were significantly blunted at nighttime versus daytime; however, ARNA responses to increased pelvic pressure or renal artery occlusion were not different between daytime and nighttime. These results demonstrate that ARNA sensitivity is greatest in decerebrate and Inactin-anesthetized groups but was not consistently influenced by sex.NEW & NOTEWORTHYWe determined the impact of anesthesia, sex, and circadian cycle on renal afferent nerve (ARNA) sensitivity to chemical and mechanical stimuli. ARNA sensitivity to renal capsaicin infusion was greatest in decerebrate > Inactin > urethane or isoflurane groups. Elevated renal pelvic pressure significantly increased ARNA; decerebrate and Inactin groups exhibited the greatest ARNA sensitivity. Sex differences in renal afferent responses were not consistently observed. Circadian cycle altered chemosensory but not mechanosensory responses.
