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 کاملIncreased prostaglandin production by glomeruli isolated from rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus.
Abnormalities in glomerular function have been observed frequently in the early stages of both clinical and experimental diabetes mellitus. Because prostaglandins (PGs) are present in the glomerulus and have profound effects on glomerular hemodynamics, and because abnormalities of PG metabolism have been noted in other tissues from diabetics, we studied PG biosynthesis in glomeruli obtained fro...
متن کاملStimulation by prostaglandin E2 of glucagon and insulin release from isolated rat pancreas.
To ascertain whether prostaglandins (PG) may play a role in the secretion of glucagon and in an attempt to elucidate the conflicting observations on the effects of PG on insulin release, the isolated intact rat pancreas was perfused with solutions containing 1.1 x 10(-9) to 1.8 x 10(-5)m PGE2. In the presence of 5.6 mM glucose significant increments in portal venous effluent levels of glucagon ...
متن کاملby isolated rat renal tubules
1. The effect of glucocorticoids on the deiodination of thyroxine (T,) to 3,5,3’-trbiodothyronine (T,) was studied in rat renal tubules prepared by collagenase digestion. 2. In short-term (6 h) experiments, cortisol and dexamethasone inhibited the conversion of T, into T, at concentrations of 2 x lo-, moll1 and 2 x mol/l respectively. The inhibition by cortisol and dexamethasone was time depend...
