Renorenal reflexes: neural and functional responses.

Evidence supporting the existence of renorenal reflexes is reviewed. Renal mechanoreceptors (MR) and afferent renal nerve fibers are localized in the corticomedullary region and in the wall of the renal pelvis. Stimulating renal MR by increased ureteral pressure (increases UP) or increased renal venous pressure (increases RVP) and renal chemoreceptors (CR) by retrograde ureteropelvic perfusion with 0.9 M NaCl results in increased ipsilateral afferent renal nerve activity (ARNA) in a variety of species. However, renorenal reflex responses to renal MR and CR differ among species. In the dog, stimulating renal MR results in a modest contralateral excitatory renorenal reflex response with contralateral renal vasoconstriction that is integrated at the supraspinal level. Renal CR stimulation is without effect on systemic and renal function. However, in the rat the responses to renal MR and CR stimulation are opposite to those of the dog. Increased ureteral pressure, renal venous pressure, or retrograde ureteropelvic perfusion with 0.9 M NaCl each results in a receptor-specific contralateral inhibitory renorenal reflex response. The afferent limb consists of increased ipsilateral ARNA and the efferent limb of decreased contralateral efferent RNA with contralateral diuresis and natriuresis. The renorenal reflex responses to MR and CR stimulation are integrated at the supraspinal level.
