Cytoplasmic pH determines K+ conductance in fused renal epithelial cells.
The mineralocorticoid hormone aldosterone maintains acid-base balance and K+ homeostasis by regulating H+ and K+ secretory mechanisms in kidney epithelial cells. We have shown recently in the amphibian distal nephron that aldosterone activates a Na+/H+ exchange system in the luminal cell membrane, thus leading to transepithelial H+ secretion and cytoplasmic alkalinization. Since H+ secretory fl...
متن کاملTangeretin protects renal tubular epithelial cells against experimental cisplatin toxicity
Objective(s): Cisplatin is an effective antineoplastic agent; its clinical utility, however, is limited by a few salient toxic side effects like nephrotoxicity. This study aimed to determine the potential protective effects of tangeretin, a citrus-derived flavonoid, against renal tubular cell injury in cisplatin-induced renal toxicity of rats.Materials and Methods: Tangeretin was injected intra...
متن کاملAmmonia blockade of intestinal epithelial K+ conductance.
Ammonia profoundly inhibits cAMP-dependent Cl- secretion in model T84 human intestinal crypt epithelia. Because colonic lumen concentrations of ammonia are high (10-70 mM), ammonia may be a novel regulator of secretory diarrheal responsiveness. We defined the target of ammonia action by structure-function analysis with a series of primary amines (ammonia, methylamine, ethylamine, propylamine, b...
متن کاملBasolateral membrane K+ channels in renal epithelial cells.
The major function of epithelial tissues is to maintain proper ion, solute, and water homeostasis. The tubule of the renal nephron has an amazingly simple structure, lined by epithelial cells, yet the segments (i.e., proximal tubule vs. collecting duct) of the nephron have unique transport functions. The functional differences are because epithelial cells are polarized and thus possess differen...
متن کاملSGK1 activates Na+-K+-ATPase in amphibian renal epithelial cells.
Serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 1 (SGK1) is thought to be an important regulator of Na(+) reabsorption in the kidney. It has been proposed that SGK1 mediates the effects of aldosterone on transepithelial Na(+) transport. Previous studies have shown that SGK1 increases Na(+) transport and epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) activity in the apical membrane of renal epithelial cells. SGK1 has...
