Rabbit Proximal Convoluted Tubule Transport
This in vitro microperfusion study examined the effects of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on proximal convoluted tubule (PC1) transport. Tubules were perfused with an ultrafiltrate-like solution and bathed in a serumlike albumin solution. Neither a physiologic (5 X 10-10 M), nor a pharmacologic (5 X 10jM) dose of growth hormone had an effect on PCT phosphate or bicarbon...
متن کاملNeonatal rabbit juxtamedullary proximal convoluted tubule acidification.
The present in vitro microperfusion study examined apical membrane Na+/H+ antiporter and basolateral membrane Na(HCO3)3 symporter activity in newborn and adult juxtamedullary proximal convoluted tubules. Proton fluxes were determined from the initial rate of change of intracellular pH after a change in the luminal or bathing solution, buffer capacity, and tubular volume of newborn and adult tub...
متن کاملGlucocorticoids stimulate rabbit proximal convoluted tubule acidification.
Glucocorticoids have an important role in renal acidification; however, a direct effect of glucocorticoids on proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) acidification has not been directly demonstrated. In the present in vitro microperfusion study PCT from animals receiving dexamethasone (600 micrograms/kg twice daily for 2 d and 2 h before killing) had a significantly higher rate of bicarbonate absorpti...
متن کاملInsulin stimulates volume absorption in the rabbit proximal convoluted tubule.
The present in vitro microperfusion study examined whether insulin affects volume absorption (Jv) in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). PCT were perfused with an ultrafiltrate-like solution and were bathed in a serum-like albumin solution. Addition of a physiologic concentration of 10(-10) M insulin to the bathing solution resulted in a stimulation of Jv and a more negative transepithelial p...
متن کاملAxial heterogeneity of intracellular pH in rat proximal convoluted tubule.
In the proximal convoluted tubule (PT), the HCO3- reabsorptive rate is higher in early (EPS) compared with late proximal segments (LPS). To examine the mechanism of this HCO3- reabsorption profile, intracellular pH (pHi) was measured along the superficial PT of the rat under free-flow and stationary microperfusion using the pH-sensitive fluorescence of 4-methylumbelliferone (4MU). With 4MU supe...
