Abstract

The human and animal osmoregulation system is aimed at stabilizing serum osmolality in order to maintain cell volume. It has been shown that the introduction of 5 mL water per 100 g of body weight into the stomach of rats decreases serum osmolality and the concentration of Na and Ca, but not K and Mg. The cascade system of osmotic homeostasis increases secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and oxytocin, and decreases secretion of vasopressin, which reduces the osmotic permeability of collecting duct. After water loading and the injection of 0.015 nM exenatide (GLP-1 mimetic), the time of excretion of 50% of water was halved from 112 ± 4 to 57 ± 5 min (p < 0.01), and after the injection of 0.015 nM oxytocin, it decreased to 83 ± 6 min (p < 0.01). The physiological mechanism of renal effect of the aforementioned hormones which accelerate the recovery of osmotic homeostasis has been found.
