This study was performed to investigate the effects of renal denervation and cromakalim, a K+ Channel opener, on central diuretic action of glibenclamide, an ATP-dependent K+ Channel blocker, in dog. Diuretic action of glibenclamide administered into the vein was weakened markedly by renal denervation and pretreatment of of cromakalim. Above results suggest that central diuretic action of glibenclamide is mediated by renal nerves and K+ Channel localized in kidney.
