Requirement of Intact Adenosine A1 Receptors for the Diuretic and Natriuretic Action of the Methylxanthines Theophylline and Caffeine
Abstract
Although the diuretic and natriuretic effects of the methylxanthines caffeine and theophylline are well established, the mechanisms responsible for these effects are unclear and may be related to inhibition of phosphodiesterases and/or antagonism of adenosine receptors. With regard to the latter, pharmacological blockade of A1 receptors can induce diuresis and natriuresis by inhibition of proximal tubular reabsorption. To elucidate the role of the A1 receptor in renal actions of methylxanthines, experiments were performed in A1 receptor knockout (A1R-/-) and littermate wild-type (A1R+/+) mice. Urinary excretion was determined in awake mice in metabolic cages over 3 h in response to theophylline (as theophylline2/ethylenediamine, 45 mg/kg), caffeine (45 mg/kg), or vehicle (0.9 ml/30 g b.wt. of 0.85% NaCl) given by oral gavage. Theophylline and caffeine elicited a diuresis and natriuresis (in absolute terms and related to urinary creatinine excretion) in A1R+/+ but not in A1R-/- mice. In a second series, the renal effect of intravenous application of theophylline (30 mg/kg) was determined in clearance experiments under anesthesia. This study revealed that the blunted diuretic and natriuretic effect of theophylline in A1R-/- mice was not due to different responses in blood pressure or glomerular filtration rate. The data indicate that an intact A1 receptor is necessary for caffeine- and theophylline-induced inhibition of renal reabsorption causing diuresis and natriuresis. This is consistent with the assumption that A1 receptor blockade mediates these effects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
