We found that ghrelin and MK-677 changed osmolarity parameters of SHR, in a GHS-R1a-dependent manner.

To investigate GHS-R1a role on renal function and hemodynamics, we used Wistar (WT) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).
First, we assessed the effect of systemically injected vehicle, ghrelin, GHS-R1a antagonist PF04628935, ghrelin plus PF04628935 or GHS-R1a synthetic agonist MK-677 in WT and SHR rats housed in metabolic cages (24 h).
