Hypokalemia and Pendrin Induction by Aldosterone.
Aldosterone plays an important role in regulating Na-Cl reabsorption and blood pressure. Epithelial Na+ channel, Na+-Cl- cotransporter, and Cl-/HCO3- exchanger pendrin are the major mediators of Na-Cl transport in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron. Existing evidence also suggests that plasma K+ concentration affects renal Na-Cl handling. In this study, we posited that hypokalemia modulat...
متن کاملRegulation of Two Renal Chloride Transporters, AE1 and Pendrin, by Electrolytes and Aldosterone
The renal handling of salt and protons and bicarbonate are intricately linked through shared transport mechanisms for sodium, chloride, protons, and bicarbonate. In the collecting duct, the regulated fine-tuning of salt and acid-base homeostasis is achieved by a series of transport proteins located in different cell types, intercalated and principal cells. Intercalated cells are considered to b...
متن کاملUse of Aldosterone Antagonist to Treat Diarrhea and Hypokalemia of Ogilvie's Syndrome
Ogilvie's syndrome (OS) is a functional obstruction of the bowel due to an autonomic imbalance. It often presents with diarrhea and is associated with hypokalemia. We present a case of a 70-year-old male who developed severe abdominal distension, watery diarrhea, and persistent hypokalemia status after left hip arthroplasty after suffering from a femoral neck fracture due to a fall and was diag...
متن کاملBrugada-like electrocardiographic changes induced by hypokalemia.
Since its description in 1992, Brugada Syndrome has become the second cause of death among young adults in some countries1. The Brugada syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease with incomplete penetrance, which may cause syncope and sudden cardiac death in young individuals with a normal heart. It is characterized by an electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern of complete or incomplete right bundle ...
متن کاملRegulation of extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure by pendrin.
Na(+) is commonly designed as the culprit of salt-sensitive hypertension but several studies suggest that abnormal Cl(-) transport is in fact the triggering mechanism. This review focuses on the regulation of blood pressure (BP) by pendrin, an apical Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger which mediates HCO(3)(-) secretion and transcellular Cl(-) transport in type B intercalated cells (B-ICs) of the distal ...
