چکیده

The transport of the nephrotoxic mycotoxin ochratoxin A across the renal peritubular membrane was examined in suspensions of rabbit renal proximal tubules. Ochratoxin A transport across the peritubular membrane was a high-affinity, low-capacity carrier-mediated process with a Jmax value of 0.12 +/- 0.4 nmol/mg of protein/min and a Km value of 1.4 +/- 0.1 microM. The apparent Michaelis constants for inhibition of [3H]para-aminohippurate (PAH) uptake by ochratoxin A inhibition was 1.5 microM, which is similar to the Km value for ochratoxin A uptake in tubule suspensions and suggests that ochratoxin A could be a substrate for the organic anion pathway. The capacity and affinity for peritubular ochratoxin A transport were 40-fold lower and > 100-fold greater, respectively, than those measured for the peritubular uptake of [3H]PAH in tubule suspensions. A concentration of 2.5 mM PAH, which reduced the uptake of [3H]PAH by 90%, reduced ochratoxin A uptake by only 40% to 50%, whereas probenecid concentrations of 0.6 to 2 mM reduced ochratoxin A accumulation in tubule suspensions up to approximately 80% to 90%. This probenecid-sensitive, PAH-insensitive uptake of ochratoxin A suggested that at least one mediated pathway other than the organic anion transporter was involved in the peritubular uptake of this mycotoxin. A 2 mM concentration of the fatty acid octanoate and 1.5 mM concentration of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent piroxicam were as effective as probenecid in blocking ochratoxin A uptake. The apparent Ki values for inhibition of ochratoxin A uptake by probenecid, piroxicam and octanoate were 30.5 +/- 7.9, 23.2 +/- 10.4 and 81.5 +/- 8.7 microM, respectively. The ability of octanoic acid to inhibit ochratoxin A transport to the same extent as probenecid and a greater extent than PAH suggests that a separate fatty acid transport pathway may be involved in the accumulation of ochratoxin A by suspensions of rabbit renal proximal tubules.

KCl co-transport across the basolateral membrane of rabbit renal proximal straight tubules.

Mammalian renal proximal tubules reabsorb large amounts of chloride. Mechanisms of the transcellular chloride transport are poorly understood. To determine whether KCl co-transport exists in the basolateral membrane of mammalian renal proximal tubule, isolated rabbit proximal straight tubules (S2 segment) were perfused in vitro, and intracellular activities of potassium and chloride (aKi, aCli)...

The existence of chloride/bicarbonate exchange across the basolateral membrane and its physiologic significance were examined in rabbit proximal tubules. S2 segments of the proximal straight tubule were perfused in vitro and changes in intracellular pH (pHi) and chloride activity (aCli) were monitored by double-barreled microelectrodes. Total peritubular chloride replacement with gluconate incr...

Effects of P-glycoprotein on cell volume regulation in mouse proximal tubule.

The role of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in cell volume regulation was examined in isolated nonperfused proximal tubule S2 segments from wild-type (WT) mice and those in which both mdr1a and mdr1b genes were knocked out (KO). When the osmolality of the bathing solution was rapidly decreased from 300 to 180 mosmol/kgH(2)O, the tubules from both the WT and KO mice exhibited regulatory volume decrease (R...
