Résumé
Afferent renal nerves exhibit a dual function controlling central sympathetic outflow via afferent electrical activity and influencing intrarenal immunological processes by releasing peptides such as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). We tested the hypothesis that increased afferent and efferent renal nerve activity occur with augmented release of CGRP in anti-Thy1.1 nephritis, in which enhanced CGRP release exacerbates inflammation. Nephritis was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by intravenous injection of OX-7 antibody (1.75 mg/kg), and animals were investigated neurophysiologically, electrophysiologically, and pathomorphologically 6 days later. Nephritic rats exhibited proteinuria (169.3 ± 10.2 mg/24 h) with increased efferent renal nerve activity (14.7 ± 0.9 bursts/s vs. control 11.5 ± 0.9 bursts/s,
