Renal vasodilation produced by two dissimilar vasodepressor polypeptides, bradykinin and eledoisin, was correlated with changes in renal venous concentrations of substances having the properties of prostaglandins of the E and F series in anesthetized dogs. Samples of renal venous blood were extracted for acidic lipids, and the prostaglandin E and prostaglandin F zones of the chromatographed extracts were eluted and assayed in vitro for prostaglandins of the E and F series by a parallel bioassay system (sensitivity 0.015 ng/ml blood). During the first 2 minutes of infusion, bradykinin increased the concentration of a prostaglandin E-like substance in renal venous blood from a mean control level of 0.16 ng/ml to 1.05 ng/ml (P<0.01); this increase occurred simultaneously with the greatest increase in renal blood flow to 432 ml/min from a control value of 282 ml/min. After 12 minutes of bradykinin infusion, the concentration of the prostaglandin E-like substance had decreased to 0.30 ng/ml, and renal blood flow had fallen to 398 ml/min. In contrast, eledoisin infused in equidilator doses did not increase the concentration of the prostaglandin E-like substance. The concentration of prostaglandin F-like substances was not affected by either polypeptide. A transient increase in urine flow occurred during the first 2 minutes of bradykinin infusion only. These results suggest that a prostaglandin E-like substance participates in the renal vasodilator and the diuretic responses to bradykinin.
