Prostaglandin E2 production by glomeruli and collecting tubules isolated from rat kidney.
The effects of vasopressin, angiotensin II, and calcium ionophore A23187 were examined and compared on endogenous prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production, in the absence of exogenous arachidonate, by glomeruli and cortical and medullary collecting tubules freshly prepared from rat kidney. Angiotensin II stimulated PGE2 production in the glomeruli but not in the collecting tubules. Vasopressin at con...
متن کاملProstaglandin synthesis in isolated rat kidney glomeruli.
Isolated rat kidney glomeruli converted octatritiated arachidonic acid to several prostaglandins whose production was inhibited by meclofenamate. These were, in order of decreasing abundance, prostaglandin F2 alpha, prostaglandin E2, 6-oxo-prostaglandin F1 alpha, thromboxane B2, and prostaglandin D2. These products were identified by thin-layer chromatography, before and after treatment with po...
متن کاملGlutamic acid decarboxylase immunoreactivity in layer IV of barrel cortex of rat and mouse.
The morphology and distribution of neurons and terminals that are immunoreactive to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) were investigated in barrel cortex of the rat and mouse. The morphology of the GAD-immunoreactive neurons located in layer IV of the barrel field resembles that of the large, smooth stellate neurons described previously in Golgi studies. Most of the somas of GAD-positive neurons...
متن کاملKidney Cortex Tubules
Triacylglycerol metabolism has been studied in kidney cortex tubules from starved rats, prepared by collagenase treatment. Triacylglycerol was determined by a newly developed fully enzymic method. Incubation of tubules in the absence of fatty acids led to a decrease of endogenous triacylglycerol by about 50% in 1 h. Addition of albuminbound oleate or palmitate resulted in a steady increase of t...
متن کاملRenin release from isolated rat glomeruli.
1. By the use of a mechanical graded sieving technique a high yield of isolated glomeruli has been obtained from rat kidny. 2. Microscopy and renin assay have shown the presence of renin-containing juxtaglomerular cells attached to these glomeruli. 3. The viability of isolated glomeruli has been confirmed by the ability of the cells to survive and divide in tissue culture and by their exclusion...
