To examine the oxygen requirement of carbonic anhydrase-dependent sodium reabsorption in the proximal tubule, 18 anaesthetized dogs were studied under conditions of saturated distal NaCl reabsorption; the latter was accomplished by volume expansion (all groups) combined with infusion of loop diuretics (groups 1 and 3). Acetazolamide reduced HCO3- reabsorption by 602 +/- 32 mumol min-1 (55%, group 1) and by 777 +/- 103 mumol min-1 (66%, group 2). This was accompanied with a reduction in sodium reabsorption and oxygen consumption in a molar delta Na/delta O2 ratio of about 45 in both groups of dogs. The delta HCO3/delta O2 ratio averaged 16 +/- 1, which was not significantly different from the theoretical value of 18 expected for transcellular sodium transport by Na+, K+-ATPase. Mannitol (group 3) reduced NaCl reabsorption by 37 +/- 2% without affecting NaHCO3 reabsorption or oxygen consumption significantly. We conclude that carbonic anhydrase-dependent NaCl reabsorption in the proximal tubules is passive, and that NaHCO3 reabsorption is the only important active sodium transport which is sensitive to inhibition of carbonic anhydrase.

Rat kidney was studied histochemically and in electron microscope during administration of lithium carbonate for 14 days in doses of 4 mmol/l. Morphological examination demonstrated signs of damage exclusively to the epithelial cells in the proximal tubule. Histochemical examination demonstrated a major reduction of the reactions for succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. No difference was found in the intensity of the reaction for alkaline phosphatase and Ca-ATPase during lithium treatment as compared to controls. Additional observation demonstrated, only in histological examination, an increased number of cells of the macula densa.

In nonerythroid cells the distribution of the cortical membrane skeleton composed of fodrin (spectrin), actin, and other proteins varies both temporally with cell development and spatially within the cell and on the membrane. In monolayers of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, it has previously been shown that fodrin and Na,K-ATPase are codistributed asymmetrically at the basolateral margins of the cell, and that the distribution of fodrin appears to be regulated posttranslationally when confluence is achieved (Nelson, W. J., and P. I. Veshnock. 1987. J. Cell Biol. 104:1527-1537). The molecular mechanisms underlying these changes are poorly understood. We find that (a) in confluent MDCK cells and intact kidney proximal tubule cells, Na,K-ATPase, fodrin, and analogues of human erythrocyte ankyrin are precisely colocalized in the basolateral domain at the ultrastructural level. (b) This colocalization is only achieved in MDCK cells after confluence is attained. (c) Erythrocyte ankyrin binds saturably to Na,K-ATPase in a molar ratio of approximately 1 ankyrin to 4 Na,K-ATPase's, with a kD of 2.6 microM. (d) The binding of ankyrin to Na,K-ATPase is inhibited by the 43-kD cytoplasmic domain of erythrocyte band 3. (e) 125I-labeled ankyrin binds to the alpha subunit of Na,K-ATPase in vitro. There also appears to be a second minor membrane protein of approximately 240 kD that is associated with both erythrocyte and kidney membranes that binds 125I-labeled ankyrin avidly. The precise identity of this component is unknown. These results identify a molecular mechanism in the renal epithelial cell that may account for the polarized distribution of the fodrin-based cortical cytoskeleton.

Ischemic injury results in proximal tubule (PT) dysfunction and loss of surface membrane (SM) polarity. Since epithelial vectorial transport requires SM polarity, we set out to determine if correction of renal cortical PT dysfunction following ischemia was dependent on the reestablishment of SM polarity. Acute renal failure was induced using a bilateral 50-min pedicle clamp. Serum creatinine and fractional sodium excretion were maximal on day 1, remained elevated on day 3, and returned toward base line by day 8. PT cellular ultrastructure was normal by day 3. Despite rapid morphological recovery, ischemia resulted in a prolonged defect in glucose reabsorption. The delayed recovery of normal glucose handling closely paralleled the slow normalization of apical membrane lipid polarity. Na+-K+-ATPase polarity was also lost secondary to ischemia as demonstrated cytochemically and biochemically by the redistribution of Na+-K+-ATPase to the apical membrane. The time required to reestablish normal Na+-K+-ATPase polarity (8 days) paralleled the recovery of normal PT Na+ reabsorption (8 days), as assessed by fractional lithium clearances. This finding supports the hypothesis that apical Na+-K+-ATPase is in part responsible for reduced Na+ reabsorption following ischemic injury. In summary, these data suggest that functional recovery of PT glucose and Na+ reabsorption following a reversible ischemic insult requires not only morphological recovery, but also the reestablishment of surface membrane lipid and protein polarity.

To evaluate the role of increased thick ascending limb Na+-K+-ATPase activity in rats undergoing hypertonic salt loading, the following groups of rats were studied: 1) control rats, 2) rats receiving an oral hypertonic Na load for 7 days, and 3) rats receiving the same oral Na load as in group 2 plus a daily injection of 10 mg/100 g of furosemide ip for 7 days. Salt loading (group 2) was associated with increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and hence an increased filtered load of sodium. Plasma aldosterone levels were markedly decreased. Na+-K+-ATPase was unchanged in the proximal tubule [convoluted (PC) and straight (PS)], increased in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop [outer medullary (OMTAL) and cortical (CTAL)] and decreased in the distal nephron [distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and cortical collecting duct (CCD)]. The renal corticomedullary gradient of solutes was markedly increased in the salt-loaded group. Salt loading plus furosemide for 7 days (group 3) was associated with severe dehydration and hypernatremia. GFR as well as plasma aldosterone levels were unchanged compared with control. Na+-K+-ATPase was significantly increased in the proximal tubule (PC and PS), markedly decreased in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (OMTAL and CTAL), increased in the DCT and unchanged in the CCD. The increase in the corticomedullary gradient caused by salt loading per se was abolished by treatment of salt-loaded rats with furosemide. These results indicate that treatment with furosemide prevents the preservation of water balance and of normal body fluid tonicity in rats undergoing hypertonic Na loading.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

To study proximal tubule bicarbonate absorption that is not due to the neutral Na+-H+ antiporter, mid to late proximal convolutions of the rat kidney were microperfused in vivo with a sodium-free choline solution containing 10(-3) M amiloride. The average sodium concentration resulting from sodium influx was 12 mM. At such low intraluminal [Na+], 10(-3) M amiloride should have inhibited the Na+-H+ antiporter by greater than 95%. When 25 mM HCO3- was in the perfusion fluid, measured total CO2 absorption was 100 pmol.mm-1.min-1. When luminal [HCO3-] was raised to 50 mM, and blood [HCO3-] was also raised to approximately 50 mM to avoid a transepithelial HCO3- concentration gradient, total CO2 absorption increased to greater than 300 pmol.mm-1.min-1. Thus raising intraluminal HCO3- concentration caused a marked increase in total CO2 absorption even though intraluminal [Na+] was low and amiloride was present. Control perfusions containing 140 mM Na+ yielded total CO2 absorption that was approximately 100 pmol.mm-1.min-1 higher than with the respective sodium-free perfusion solutions. In additional experiments, either DCCD or NEM was added to sodium-free perfusion solutions to inhibit H+-ATPase. These inhibitors reduced Na+-H+ independent total CO2 absorption markedly. Our observations suggest that under physiological acid-base conditions, sodium-independent H+ secretion can account for approximately 50% of total HCO3- absorption in mid to late proximal convolutions. This mechanism is stimulated by an increase in ambient HCO(-3) concentration to a degree that might account for the load-dependency of proximal HCO(-3) absorption in these segments of the proximal tubule.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Ischemia results in the marked reduction of renal proximal tubule function which is manifested by decreased Na+ and H2O reabsorption. In the present studies the possibility that altered Na+ and H2O reabsorption were due to ischemia-induced loss of surface membrane polarity was investigated. Following 15 min of renal ischemia and 2 hr of reperfusion, proximal tubule cellular ultrastructure was normal. However, abnormal redistribution of NaK-ATPase to the apical membrane domain was observed and large alterations in apical membrane lipid composition consistent with loss of surface membrane polarity were noted. These changes were associated with large decreases in Na+ (37.4 vs. 23.0%, P less than 0.01) and H2O (48.6 vs. 36.9%, P less than 0.01) reabsorption at a time when cellular morphology, apical Na+ permeability, Na+-coupled cotransport, intracellular pH and single nephron filtration rates were normal. We propose that the abnormal redistribution of NaK-ATPase to the apical membrane domain is in part responsible for reduced Na+ and H2O reabsorption following ischemic injury.

The effects of cisplatin (5 mg/kg BW given intraperitoneally) on renal concentration mechanism were evaluated initially by clearance studies in rats 5-7 days after cisplatin administration and compared to normal rats. During hypotonic saline infusion, cisplatin rats showed a lower inulin clearance (0.56 +/- 0.07 vs. 1.12 +/- 0.09 ml/min/100 g BW, p less than 0.01), a higher fractional distal delivery (CNa + CH2O/Cin) (36.3 +/- 4.4 vs. 22.8 +/- 4.5%, p less than 0.05), and lower CH2O/CNa + CH2O (33.6 +/- 5.8 vs. 56.5 +/- 5.0%, p less than 0.01). During hypertonic saline infusion the TcH2O/Cosm was lower in cisplatin (18.3 +/- 1.1%) than in normal rats (33.4 +/- 3.5%, p less than 0.01). These results suggest a defect in NaCl transport in the thick ascending limb of Henle and proximal tubule. In order to characterize these tubular defects, we measured Na-K-ATPase activity (microM Pi/mg protein/h). In the renal cortex of cisplatin rats the ATPase activity was lower (18.1 +/- 3.2) than in normal rats (33.4 +/- 6.4, p less than 0.05), also in the inner strip of the outer medulla of cisplatin rats Na-K-ATPase was reduced (26.0 +/- 5.7) when compared with normal rats (67.3 +/- 9.2, p less than 0.01), presumably representing a decrease in enzyme activity in the thick ascending limb.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Several studies suggested that catecholamines modulate renal sodium and water excretion by direct stimulation of adrenergic receptors located on the renal proximal tubule. However, neither the mechanism nor the class of adrenoceptor involved in this effect have yet been established definitively. In the present study, we examined the effects of L-norepinephrine (NE) and selective alpha-1, alpha-2 and beta adrenergic agonists on monovalent cation transport and on Na+-K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity from homogenates, intact tubules and highly purified basolateral membranes prepared from superficial rabbit kidney cortex. Our results showed that neither NE nor specific alpha-1, alpha-2 and beta adrenergic agonists (10 microM) modified ouabain-sensitive uptake of 86Rb+ (a K+ analog) in intact proximal tubules. Similarly, it is demonstrated that NE and alpha and beta adrenergic agonists did not affect Na+-K+-ATPase activity from homogenates, intact tubules and basolateral membranes. The integrity of the alpha-2 adrenergic receptor system, the predominant adrenergic subtype in rabbit proximal tubule, was supported by the following findings: 1) maximal binding of [3H] rauwolscine was about 4-fold higher in basolateral membranes than in homogenates; 2) 5'-guanylimidodiphosphate induced a 27-fold increase in the Ki of NE for alpha-2 receptor in basolateral membranes; 3) NE (5 microM) inhibited by 35% parathyroid hormone-stimulated cyclic AMP production in intact tubules. In conclusion, these data fail to demonstrate that NE, as well as other adrenergic agonists, directly increases Na+-K+-ATPase in the rabbit proximal tubule. Further investigations are needed to clarify the interaction of catecholamines with the renal Na+K+ pump.

To avoid large changes in cell K+ content and volume during variations in Na+,K+-ATPase activity, Na+-transporting epithelia must adjust the rate of K+ exit through passive permeability pathways. Recent studies have shown that a variety of passive K+ transport mechanisms may coexist within a cell and may be functionally linked to the activity of the Na+,K+-ATPase. In this study, we have identified three distinct pathways for passive K+ transport that act in concert with the Na+,K+-ATPase to maintain intracellular K+ homeostasis in the proximal tubule. Under control conditions, the total K+ leak of the tubules consisted of discrete Ba2+-sensitive (approximately 65%), quinine-sensitive (approximately 20%), and furosemide-sensitive (approximately 10%) pathways. Following inhibition of the principal K+ leak pathway with Ba2+, the tubules adaptively restored cell K+ content to normal levels. This recovery of cell K+ content was inhibited, in an additive manner, by quinine and furosemide. Following adaptation to Ba2+, the tubules exhibited a 30% reduction in Na+-K+ pump rate coupled with an increase in K+ leak by means of the quinine-sensitive (approximately 70%) and furosemide-sensitive (approximately 280%) pathways. Thus, the proximal tubule maintains intracellular K+ homeostasis by the coordinated modulation of multiple K+ transport pathways. Furthermore, these results suggest that, like Ba2+, other inhibitors of K+ conductance will cause compensatory changes in both the Na+-K+ pump and alternative pathways for passive K+ transport.
