The effects of streptozotocin induced diabetes (50 mg/Kg) on the circadian rhythms in the excretion of sodium and potassium as well as their plasma concentration rhythms were investigated. Control (C) and diabetic (D) rats were studied during a light-dark (12h:12h) cycle and fed ad libitum. Statistically significant circadian rhythms were found for sodium and potassium excretion in C rats. The orthophases of both rhythms occurred in the dark phase, the potassium one occurring before that of sodium. In D rats there is increased excretion of both sodium and potassium with the rhythmicity maintained for sodium excretion only, which has an earlier orthophase than in the C rats. Plasma sodium and potassium concentrations showed a statistically significant circadian pattern in C rats, with orthophase in the light phase. This rhythmicity only appears in plasma potassium concentration for D rats, with orthophase at the end of the dark phase. The results in diabetic rats may suggest that the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and/or tubular reabsorption rhythms are still contributing to the sodium excretory rhythm, and that the loss of the circadian rhythm in sodium plasma concentration has no influence on the sodium excretion rhythm. Nevertheless, the loss of the potassium excretion rhythm may suggest a disruption of the variations in the secretory process, as this excretion seems to be independent of the plasma potassium concentration rhythm, which is not lost in D rats. |
