Endothelin A receptor-like immunoreactivity on the basal infoldings of rat renal tubules and collecting ducts.
We investigated the distribution of endothelin A (ET(A)) receptor-like immunoreactivity in the rat kidney using affinity-purified antibodies against amino acid residues 403-417 of the rat ET(A) receptor modified by the multiple antigen peptide complex system. Western blot analysis using the affinity-purified anti-ET(A) antibody detected bands of approximately 47.3 and 64.5 kDa in the rat kidney...
متن کاملEffect of Endothelin-A Receptor Blockade on the Early Phase of Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Acute Renal Failure in Anesthetized Rats
Background: Previous studies have shown increases in endothelin (ET) concentration of plasma and renal tissues in acute renal failure (ARF). ET has a potent vasoconstrictor effect, through binding with its ETA receptors, and may play some roles in renal hemodynamic dysfunction in ARF.Objective: To examine the beneficial effect of a selective ETA-receptor antagonist on renal dysfunction and tis...
متن کاملPhysiological actions of renal collecting duct endothelin.
THE CONTRIBUTION OF ENDOTHELIN to regulation of renal function under normal physiological conditions is unclear. Many cells in the kidney produce endothelin (9). Endothelin has been reported to have effects that both promote (2, 3, 5–7, 12–14, 16, 18) and reduce (2, 8, 13, 15) urinary sodium excretion and urinary volume. This may be due to the fact that endothelin exerts its effects via two rec...
متن کاملCongenital Cystic Dilatation of the Renal Collecting Tubules
In 1943, while I was in the U. S. Army, a young soldier was referred to me because of gross, painless, total hematuria and a peculiarly abnormal excretion urogram. Except for this gross abnormality which looked as though a bunch of grapes were attached to each minor calyx (Fig. la and lb), no explanation could be found for his hematuria. There was no evidence of calculous disease. There was no ...
