New ideas about aldosterone signaling in epithelia.
The systemic actions of aldosterone are well documented; however, in comparison, our understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which aldosterone orchestrates these actions is rudimentary. Aldosterone exerts most of its physiological actions by modifying gene expression. It is now apparent that aldosterone represses almost as many genes as it induces. Several aldosterone-sensitiv...
متن کاملAldosterone interaction on sodium transport and chloride permeability: influence of epithelial structure.
The effects of aldosterone on sodium transport and chloride permeability were investigated by electrophysiology in two structurally distinct epithelial used as models for the distal renal tubule: the A6 cell monolayer as compared with the amphibian skin epithelium (ASE). Short-circuit current (Isc) and transepithelial conductance (Gt) were measured in A6 monolayers incubated overnight with(out)...
متن کاملAldosterone induces ras methylation in A6 epithelia.
Aldosterone increases Na(+) reabsorption by renal epithelial cells: the acute actions (<4 h) appear to be promoted by protein methylation. This paper describes the relationship between protein methylation and aldosterone's action and describes aldosterone-mediated targets for methylation in cultured renal cells (A6). Aldosterone increases protein methylation from 7.90 +/- 0.60 to 20.1 +/- 0.80 ...
متن کاملStructure of tight junctions in epithelia with different permeability.
Freeze-fracture studies have shown a network of intramembrane fibrils in the tight junctions of epithelia. A direct correlation between the number of fibrils and junctional permeability has been suggested by previous studies. However, we have made two groups of observations showing that junctional permeability is not univocally related to the complexity of the network revealed by freeze-fractur...
متن کاملParacellular permeability of corneal and conjunctival epithelia.
The paracellular permeability of normal rabbit cornea and conjunctiva was studied in vivo and in vitro. After intravenous administration, horseradish peroxidase was found to percolate to the intercellular space of conjunctival epithelia and was restricted by the tight junctions of the superficial epithelium. Only minimal tracer was present in the limbus and cornea. The difference between cornea...
