We carried out in vivo microperfusion experiments in acid-loaded rats to characterize the adaptive response of the unidirectional components secretory flux (Jsec) and reabsorptive flux (Jreab)] of distal tubule bicarbonate reabsorption and to test the hypothesis that Jreab is dependent on bafilomycin A1-sensitive H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase activity. During 18 h of severe acidosis there was a significant decrease in Jsec (-15 +/- 3 vs. -38 +/- 5 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.05) and a significant increase in Jreab (37 +/- 6 vs. 0 +/- 5 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.05), which was insensitive to 10(-5) M bafilomycin A1, 10(-5) M Sch-28080, and 3 mM amiloride. After 3 days of acid loading, these same inhibitors reduced Jreab by approximately 60%. However, when water flux was completely inhibited by isosmotic perfusion, a significant Jreab (15 +/- 2 pmol.min-1.mm-1) resistant to 10(-5) M bafilomycin A1 persisted, as in severe acidosis. In reabsorbing distal tubules of overnight-fasted rats, Sch-28080 elicited no inhibition, whereas bafilomycin A1 and amiloride had significant effects (28 +/- 5, 24 +/- 4, respectively, vs. 50 +/- 4 pmol.min-1.mm-1 for fasted rats, P < 0.05). Thus, although Jsec is reduced in the transition from mild to severe metabolic acidosis of 18-h duration, the predominant effect is a stimulation of bafilomycin A1-resistant Jreab.

Insulin has been shown to stimulate the rate of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb influx in the isolated rat proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). To study the mechanism of this activation of Na-K-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase), we determined the actions of insulin on 1) the maximal activity (Vmax) of Na-K-ATPase hydrolytic activity; 2) the maximal rate of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb influx (after intracellular Na loading); 3) the rate of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb influx under conditions where intracellular Na concentration is rate limiting, either in the presence or in the absence of 5 x 10(-4) M amiloride and/or low extracellular Na concentration (3 mM); and 4) the Na sensitivity of the Na-K-ATPase hydrolytic activity. The maximal rates of Na-K-ATPase hydrolytic activity and of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake were unchanged by insulin. In contrast, we confirmed that insulin enhanced 86Rb uptake (in peq.mm-1.min-1) in the absence of inhibitor of the Na/H exchanger [18.2 +/- 1.7 to 24.1 +/- 1.3 (SE), P < 0.03] and, in addition, demonstrated a similar stimulation in the presence of either 5 x 10(-4) M amiloride (7.2 +/- 0.6 to 10.7 +/- 0.9, P < 0.01), 3 mM extracellular Na (4.1 +/- 0.4 to 5.6 +/- 0.2, P < 0.05), and both amiloride and 3 mM extracellular Na (2.1 +/- 0.7 to 4.5 +/- 0.4, P < 0.03). Finally, insulin increased the sensitivity of Na-K-ATPase to Na as the apparent dissociation constant decreased from 46.5 +/- 5.3 to 27.6 +/- 3.0 mM (P < 0.03).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

To elucidate the mechanism of Na+ retention by insulin in vivo, the direct tubular effect of insulin on NaCl transport in the in vitro microperfused medullary thick ascending limb of Henle (MTAL) was examined. Insulin at 10(-6) mol/l in the bath increased transepithelial voltage (Vte) from 3.1 +/- 0.3 to 5.7 +/- 0.3 mV (n = 12, P < 0.0001). The effect of insulin on Vte was dependent on its concentration, and the half-maximal effect of insulin was observed at 5 x 10(-9) mol/l. Insulin at 10(-6) mol/l also caused a significant decrease of luminal Cl- concentration from 85.4 +/- 5.0 to 62.8 +/- 3.0 mmol/l (n = 5, P < 0.002) when the lumen was microperfused constantly at less than 1 nl/min. Insulin at 10(-6) mol/l also increased net lumen-to-bath Cl- flux (JCl) from 143 +/- 15 to 292 +/- 37 pmol.mm-1.min-1 (n = 5, P < 0.004). When the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase) in the basolateral membrane was blocked by 10(-4) mol/l ouabain, the insulin-mediated increase in Vte was completely suppressed. When the Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporter in the luminal membrane of the MTAL was blocked by 10(-4) mol/l furosemide, the insulin-mediated increase in Vte was also abolished. To test whether adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) contributes to the action of insulin, we examined the effect of cAMP analogue and cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor on the action of insulin. A maximal concentration (5 x 10(-4) mol/l) of dibutyryl-cAMP (DBcAMP) increased Vte and JCl.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The maximal hydrolytic activity of Na-K-ATPase is specifically increased in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) of rats with puromycin-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS). This stimulation is independent of aldosterone and of endogenous ouabain-like substance. To investigate the mechanism responsible for this change, we compared the maximal Na-K-ATPase hydrolytic activity, the ouabain sensitive 86Rb influx, the specific [3H]ouabain binding, and the sensitivity of Na-K-ATPase to ouabain in the CCD of control rats and of rats given an intraperitoneal injection of puromycin 7 d before study. Both Na-K-ATPase activity and ouabain-sensitive 86Rb influx increased two-fold in rats with NS (ATPase activity: 34.1 +/- 2.1 vs. 18.0 +/- 0.7 pmol.mm-1 x min-1 +/- SE, n = 6, P < 0.001; Rb influx: 14.4 +/- 0.7 vs. 7.4 +/- 0.4 peq.min-1 +/- SE, n = 6, P < 0.001) whereas specific [3H]ouabain binding decreased in rats with NS (6.9 +/- 0.7 vs. 9.0 +/- 0.6 fmol.mm-1 +/- SE, n = 6, P < 0.005). Therefore, the maximal turnover rate of Na-K-ATPase increased over twofold in rats with NS (5,053 +/- 361 vs. 2,043 +/- 124 cycles.min-1 +/- SE, n = 6, P < 0.001). Analysis of the curves of inhibition of Na-K-ATPase by ouabain showed the presence of two Na-K-ATPase populations in both control and NS rats: a highly sensitive population (apparent Ki: 1.4 x 10(-6) M and 0.9 x 10(-6) M) and a less sensitive moiety (apparent Ki: 2.6 x 10(-4) M and 1.1 x 10(-4) M). The enhancement of Na-K-ATPase activity observed in the CCD of rats with NS was entirely due to the stimulation of the population of Na-K-ATPase with low ouabain sensitivity. These results suggest that a dysregulation of this subclass of Na-K-ATPase might be the primary cause of sodium retention in this model of nephrotic syndrome.

We have shown that NH4+ and K+ compete for extracellular binding on the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase) in the rat terminal inner medullary collecting duct (tIMCD). The present study explored whether the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase modulates transepithelial net acid flux [JH+ = total CO2 absorption (JtCO2) + total ammonia secretion (JtAM)]. Tubules from the tIMCD were dissected from deoxycorticosterone (DOC)-treated rats and perfused in vitro. Perfusate and bath were identical physiological saline solutions containing 25 mM NaHCO3 + 6 mM NH4Cl or were NH4Cl or were NH4Cl free. With NH4+ present, the fall in total CO2 from perfusate to collected fluid (delta tCO2, 2.5 +/- 0.4 mM; n = 6) was accompanied by an increase in collected total ammonia concentration (0.2 +/- 0.1 mM). However, in the absence of NH4Cl, delta tCO2 was only 0.9 +/- 0.2 mM (P < 0.05, n = 5). To determine the mechanism of this NH4Cl-induced increase in net acid secretion, the effect of Na+ pump inhibition on net acid secretion was explored. With NH4Cl present, JCO2 was 3.8 +/- 0.5 pmol.mm-1.min-1 (ouabain absent) but declined to 1.6 +/- 0.3 pmol.mm-1.min-1 with ouabain addition to the bath (n = 7, P < 0.05). Furthermore, in the presence of NH4Cl, intracellular pH (pHi) increased from 7.05 +/- 0.02 to 7.15 +/- 0.02 (P < 0.05, n = 5) with ouabain addition and returned to 7.06 +/- 0.03 (P < 0.05) with ouabain removal. However, in the absence of NH4Cl, ouabain failed to reduce JtCO2 (P = NS, n = 5), and an increase in pHi was not observed (n = 4, P = NS). In conclusion, NH4+ augments net acid secretion likely by serving as a proton source for bicarbonate absorption and titration of other luminal buffers. This ammonium pathway is dependent on the basolateral membrane Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase.

Studies in our laboratory have demonstrated total CO2 absorption (JtCO2) and total ammonia secretion in the terminal inner medullary collecting duct (tIMCD) perfused in vitro. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the H(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-K(+)-ATPase) participates in proton secretion or JtCO2 in this segment. Tubules from the middle third of the tIMCD were dissected from rats with chronic metabolic acidosis (300 mM NH4Cl, 3-4 days in drinking water) and perfused in vitro. Perfusate and bath were symmetrical solutions containing 5 mM KCl, 6 mM NH4Cl, and 25 mM NaHCO3. Bafilomycin A1 (5 nM), a specific inhibitor of the H(+)-ATPase, did not affect JtCO2 compared with baseline (JtCO2, 3.0 +/- 1.0 and 3.0 +/- 0.8; n = 6, P = not significant) or with time controls (n = 4). With removal of luminal K+, JtCO2 fell from 2.8 +/- 0.6 to 1.6 +/- 0.4 pmol.mm-1.min-1 (n = 5, P < 0.05). To further evaluate K(+)-sensitive JtCO2, the effect of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibition on JtCO2 was explored using the specific H(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, Sch-28080. Addition of 10 microM Sch-28080 to the luminal perfusate decreased JtCO2 (2.7 +/- 0.4 to 1.4 +/- 0.5 pmol.mm-1. min-1; n = 5, P < 0.05) but did not alter transepithelial membrane potential. Thus luminal Sch-28080 addition, as well as luminal K+ removal, limits apical H+ exit or OH-/HCO3- entry. These results demonstrate that net acid secretion is mediated by the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase in the tIMCD.

Distal tubules (DT) from sham or five-sixths nephrectomized (Nx) rats were perfused in vivo to evaluate the hypothesis that, after Nx, endogenous angiotensin II (ANG II) modulates DT in vivo bicarbonate reabsorption (JtCO2) via H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase) and Na+/H+ exchange. In Nx rats JtCO2 was increased (65 +/- 7 vs. -24 +/- 21 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.01). Both luminal and intravenous AT1-receptor blockade by losartan reduced Nx DT JtCO2 (41 +/- 6 and 34 +/- 4 pmol.min-1.min-1, respectively, P < 0.05), whereas neither 10(-9) M nor 10(-11) M ANG II luminal perfusion increased JtCO2, suggesting preexisting high endogenous ANG II levels. The Na+/H+ antiporter inhibitors 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)-amiloride and 5-(N,N-dimethyl)-amiloride were without effect. Luminal perfusion of 5 nM concanamycin A, a V-type H(+)-ATPase inhibitor, reduced Nx DT JtCO2 (45 +/- 8 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.05). In Nx A-type intercalated cells, we demonstrated cellular hypertrophy, elaboration of apical microplicae, and enhanced expression/apical polarization of H(+)-ATPase. Thus ANG II is an important determinant in sustaining brisk DT JtCO2 following Nx and is associated with enhanced expression and A-type intercalated cell apical polarization of H(+)-ATPase.

On the basis of our report that a glycolipoprotein fraction (GLP) extracted from Leptospira interrogans contains a potent inhibitor of renal Na,K-ATPase, we proposed that GLP-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase might be the primary cellular defect in the physiopathology of leptospirosis. The present study was designed to test this hypothesis by determining whether or not 1). GLP inhibits all the isoforms of Na,K-ATPase which are expressed in the tissues affected by leptospirosis, 2) Na,K-ATPase from leptospirosis-resistant species, such as the rat, is sensitive to GLP, 3) GLP inhibits Na,K-ATPase from intact cells, and 4) GLP inhibits ouabain-sensitive H,K-ATPase. The results indicate that in the rabbit, a leptospirosis-sensitive species, GLP inhibits with similar efficiency (apparent IC50: 120-220 micrograms protein GLP/ml) all isoforms of Na,K-ATPase known to be expressed in target tissues for the disease. Na,K-ATPase from rat kidney displays a sensitivity to GLP similar to that of the rabbit kidney enzyme (apparent IC50: 25-80 and 50-150 micrograms protein GLP/ml for rat and rabbit, respectively), indicating that resistance to the disease does not result from the resistance of Na,K-ATPase to GLP. GLP also reduces ouabain-sensitive rubidium uptake in rat thick ascending limbs (pmol mm-1 min-1 +/- SEM; control: 23.8 +/- 1.8; GLP, 88 micrograms protein/ml: 8.2 +/- 0.9), demonstrating that it is active in intact cells. Finally, GLP had no demonstrable effect on renal H,K-ATPase activity, even on the ouabain-sensitive form, indicating that the active principle of GLP is more specific for Na,K-ATPase than ouabain itself. Although the hypothesis remains to be demonstrated in vivo, the present findings are compatible with the putative role of GLP-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase as an initial mechanism in the physiopathology of leptospirosis.

We tested the hypothesis that the Frank-Starling relationship is mediated by changes in the rate of cross-bridge detachment in cardiac muscle. We simultaneously measured isometric force development and the rate of ATP consumption at various levels of Ca2+ activation in skinned rat cardiac trabecular muscles at three sarcomere lengths (2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 microns). The maximum rate of ATP consumption was 1.5 nmol.s-1.microliter fiber vol-1, which represents an estimated adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) rate of approximately 10 s-1 per myosin head at 24 degrees C. The rate of ATP consumption was tightly and linearly coupled to the level of isometric force development, and changes in sarcomere length had no effect on the slope of the force-ATPase relationships. The average slope of the force-ATPase relationships was 15.5 pmol.mN-1.mm-1. These results suggest that the mechanisms that underlie the Frank-Starling relationship in cardiac muscle do not involve changes in the kinetics of the apparent detachment step in the cross-bridge cycle.

To evaluate whether K depletion enhances in vivo bicarbonate reabsorption (JtCO2) in surviving distal tubules (DT), we compared DT JtCO2 in five-sixths nephrectomized rats (Nx) with and without dietary K depletion (Nx-K). Furthermore, to identify possible mechanisms of increased JtCO2, we perfused inhibitors of proton secretion in both Nx and Nx-K rats. JtCO2 (102 +/- 8 pmol.min-1.mm-1) was significantly increased in Nx-K vs. Nx rats (65 +/- 7 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.05) but unaffected by 10(-6) M losartan perfusion (94 +/- 6 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P = not significant). Although 10(-5) M Sch-28080 also had no significant effect, 5 x 10(-9) M concanamycin A perfusion significantly decreased JtCO2 in Nx-K rats to 65 +/- 8 pmol.min-1. mm-1 (P < 0.05). Morphometric evaluation and H(+)-ATPase immunogold labeling of Nx-K A-type intercalated cells revealed cellular hypertrophy, elaborated apical microplicae, and enhanced H(+)-ATPase apical polarization. Accordingly, these combined studies confirm that K depletion enhances JtCO2 in surviving DT by stimulating H(+)-ATPase activity, independent of the AT1 receptor.
