It was shown that the surgical denervation of kidney resulted in an increase in renal cAMP both in norm and especially in reflex dystrophy. The beta-adrenoceptor blockade with propranolol was accompanied by a decrease in renal nucleotide being more pronounced in animals with intact ischiatic nerve. Based on own and literature data we have suggested that one cause for the damage to renal aldosterone receptors in reflex dystrophy under pathological stimulation from the focus of damage in ischiatic nerve as well as for their improved functioning in surgical or pharmacological (beta-adrenoceptor blockade) desympathization which discontinues this stimulation, may be change in cAMP content. Via cAMP-dependent protein kinases, this nucleotide triggers a complex system of intracellular metabolic transformations which is able to change the protein spectrum of cytoplasm, nucleus, and chromatin and, therefore, the protein complex of aldosterone receptors. A participation of other biochemical systems of aldosterone stimulus transmission, including cAMP-independent ones, in processes of damage and normalization of tubule cells of the kidneys undergoing reflex dystrophy cannot be excluded.</p>","PeriodicalId":14529,"journal":{"name":"Izvestiia Akademii nauk SSSR.
