Hypertension is considered as the most common presenting feature in renal diseases. Among the several factors known to be involved in the renal hypertension, the role of exaggerated sympathetic activity and a possible involvement of interaction between sympathetic nervous (SNS) and renin angiotensin (RAS) systems in the pathophysiology have not yet been fully elucidated.
Introduction
Introduction
Sympathetic overactivity triggering factor of hypertension
In hypertension increased spill over of sympathetic neurotransmitter, namely nor- epinephrine from the heart and kidney
Introduction
Renal failureRenal insufficiency
Life-threatening disease
Acute or chronic progression leading to endstage renal disease (ESRD)
Accompanied by hypertensionit has been reported that afferent stimuli arising from the scared and diseased kidneys into the central nervous system may activate the sympathetic nervous system and contribute in the genesis of hypertension
Introduction Activation of SNS
leads to enhanced tubular sodium reabsorption, vasoconstriction of renal arterioles mainly through 1 and release of renin via 1 from the juxtaglomerular cells.
Activation of RASthrough the angiotensin II (Ang II) bind to angiotensin receptor type 1 (AT1)
induce vasoconstriction and increased tubular sodium reabsorption (direct or through aldosterone).
The predominant receptors in the kidney are 1-adrenoceptor subtypes, play a pivotal role in the mediation of sympathetic nervous system (SNS) response and AT1.
Introduction Interaction between both systems:
Adrenergic systemrelease of renin, which will increase angiotensin II through a cascade system (enzymes).
RASi) intrarenal (ANGII on AT1):
- Direct ganglionic adrenergic stimulation- Terminal presynaptic release of
noradrenaline (endogenous adrenergic
neurotransmitter)
ii) extrarenal- Act centrally on CNS centres that regulate
sympathetic systems outflow (area postrema and rostral ventrolateral medulla)
Introduction
Sympathectomy or destruction of sympathetic nervous systems (SNS) has been widely used in assessing the role of peripheral and central sympathetic nervous system in various physiological processes. As nearly all organ systems are innervated by the SNS, any such attempt of disrupting the noradrenergic nerves may cause global loss of sympathetic tone following chemical sympathectomy and provide animal model with impaired SNS activity. One current model for denervation is chemical sympathectomy by the use of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine.
Introduction
6-hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) is an isomer of noradrenaline which produced a destructive phenomenon of the terminal ground plexus of pheripheral sympathetic (noradrenergic) neurons, called “ chemical sympathectomy”.6OHDA has the potential to produce adrenergic receptor blockade or destruction, but only after administration of toxic doses of 6OHDA or after the sympathetic neurons have been completely abolished.In the periphery, destructive process by 6OHDA is reversible in that new sympathetic plexus are formed from the relatively intact preterminal processes
Objectives
To verify the concept that exaggerated SNS is involved in the pathophysiology of renal diseases related hypertension.To determine if there is any alterations in renal haemodynamics after sympathectomy in renal failure and in renal failure in combination with hypertension.To examine the interaction of renin-angiotensin (RAS) and sympathetic nervous (SNS) systems in renal haemodynamics of rats with renal failure (RF) in combined state of essential hypertension.

Conclusion
These results reiterate the importance of SNS in the pathogenesis of hypertension.In renal failure rats, there is an exaggeration of sympathetic activity but with a lower input of 1A
Collectively it is suggested that there was a cross talk between SNS and RAS in perspective of renal failure with hypertension.
