Regulation of Urea Transporters by Tonicity-responsive Enhancer Binding Protein
Urea accumulation in the renal inner medulla plays a key role in the maintenance of maximal urinary concentrating ability. Urea transport in the kidney is mediated by transporter proteins that include renal urea transporter (UT-A) and erythrocyte urea transporter (UT-B). UT-A1 and UT-A2 are produced from the same gene. There is an active tonicity-responsive enhancer (TonE) in the promoter of UT...
متن کاملVasopressin regulation of the renal UT-A3 urea transporter.
Facilitative urea transporters in the mammalian kidney play a vital role in the urinary concentrating mechanism. The urea transporters located in the renal inner medullary collecting duct, namely UT-A1 and UT-A3, are acutely regulated by the antidiuretic hormone vasopressin. In this study, we investigated the vasopressin regulation of the basolateral urea transporter UT-A3 using an MDCK-mUT-A3 ...
متن کاملDietary regulation of ruminal bovine UT-B urea transporter expression and localization.
Facilitative UT-B urea transporters have been located in the gastrointestinal tract of numerous mammalian species. We have previously identified UT-B urea transporters within the epithelial layers of the bovine (b) rumen. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that ruminal bUT-B urea transporters are regulated by dietary intake. Six Limousine-cross steers (initial BW = 690 +/- 51 kg) ...
متن کاملRegulated expression of renal and intestinal UT-B urea transporter in response to varying urea load.
Production, recycling, and elimination of urea are important to maintain nitrogen balance. Adaptation to varying loads of urea due to different protein intake or in renal failure may involve changes in urea transport and may possibly affect urea transporters. In this study, we examined the expression of the UT-B urea transporter in rats fed a low-protein diet (LPD), a high-protein diet (HPD), a...
متن کاملUpregulation of urea transporter UT-A2 and water channels AQP2 and AQP3 in mice lacking urea transporter UT-B.
The UT-B urea transporter is the major urea transporter in red blood cells and kidney descending vasa recta. Humans and mice that lack UT-B have a mild urine-concentrating defect. Whether deletion of UT-B altered the expression of other transporter proteins involved in urinary concentration was tested. Fluorescence-based real-time reverse transcription-PCR and Northern blot analysis showed upre...
