The localization of carbonic anhydrase by histochemistry, of Na-K-ATPase by immunocytochemistry and of rod-shaped intramembranous particles by freeze-fracture electron microscopy, was determined in the collecting duct of rabbits. In the cortical collecting duct (CCD), rod-shaped particles, which are abundant in intercalated cells were observed in both the apical and basolateral membrane of all intercalated cells examined. In the outer stripe of the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDo) a high density of rod-shaped particles was found only in the apical membrane of intercalated cells. All cells of the inner stripe of the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi) had rod-shaped particles in the apical membrane but not in the basolateral membrane. As the collecting duct entered the inner medulla the density of rod-shaped particles decreased until they were virtually absent in the terminal segment. Na-K-ATPase, localized to the basolateral membrane, was more abundant in principal cells than in intercalated cells in the CCD. In the OMCDo, staining was equal in principal and intercalated cells. All cells of the OMCDi and the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) stained for Na-K-ATPase. Carbonic anhydrase in the CCD was localized to the cell membranes and cytoplasm of intercalated cells. Principal cells did not stain for carbonic anhydrase. A similar pattern was seen in the OMCDo. In the outer region of the OMCDi most cells did not stain for carbonic anhydrase, whereas in the inner region the apical and lateral membranes of all cells stained for carbonic anhydrase. Weak cytoplasmic staining was occasionally seen. A similar pattern was seen in the initial half of the IMCD, while the terminal half of the IMCD did not stain. In this study, the localization of enzymes and rod-shaped intramembranous particles associated with Na+, K+, and H+ transport shows both segmental and cellular heterogeneity, and correlates with the known transport properties of tubule segments. The distribution of these enzymes and rod-shaped intramembranous particles is different in rabbits and rats, and may explain some of the functional differences between homologous segments in these species.

An antibody to the 96 kD alpha-subunit of the Na+, K+-ATPase from Bufo marinus has been used in immunostaining rat kidney and salivary glands. Intense staining was observed on basolateral membranes of distal tubules of the kidney and striated ducts of the three major salivary glands. Less intense staining was seen on the basolateral membranes of parotid acinar cells, but no staining was seen on the acinar cells of submandibular or sublingual glands. These sites of staining have been shown, by other methods, to posses substantial Na+, K+-ATPase, indicating that the antibody recognizes antigenic determinants of the sodium pump highly conserved in the course of evolution. In addition, staining with this antibody was observed at the apical region of cells of the proximal straight tubule and of the papillary collecting duct in the kidney. Absorption studies suggest that the apical antigenic determinants are the same or closely related to each other but are distinct from basolateral antigenic determinants.

The cellular distributions of the kidney form of the erythrocyte band 3 chloride/bicarbonate exchanger and the kidney vacuolar H+-transporting ATPase were examined in rat kidney collecting duct by immunocytochemical staining of adjacent semithin sections. Polyclonal anti-peptide antibodies directed against two regions of murine erythroid band 3 gave a pattern of basolateral labeling similar to that seen with antibodies directed against the entire protein. In the medullary collecting duct almost all intercalated cells expressed basolateral membrane band 3 and displayed apical membrane H+-ATPase. In the cortical collecting duct and the connecting segment, band 3 labeling was restricted to a subpopulation of intercalcated cells. In the cortical collecting duct 46% of intercalated cells had apical H+-ATPase and basolateral band 3. Cells that had either basolateral or diffuse cytoplasmic staining for H+-ATPase were all band 3-negative and accounted for 53% of the intercalated cells. In addition, occasional intercalated cells with apical H+-ATPase appeared to lack basolateral band 3. These results demonstrate the coexpression of H+-ATPase and band 3 in opposite plasma membrane domains of a subpopulation of intercalated cells that are probably the acid-excreting (type A) cells. All other intercalated cells lacked immunoreactive band 3 and probably include the bicarbonate-excreting (type B) cells.

Recently, we demonstrated that an ATPase stimulated by K (and not inhibited by ouabain, Na-K-ATPase inhibitor) is present in the connecting tubule (CNT) and collecting duct segments of the rabbit. In this study, we determined the effects of high- and low-K diet on K-ATPase activity in the CNT and collecting duct segments of rabbit. One group of animals was given a low-K diet (34 mEq/kg diet) and the other group was given a high-K diet (700 mEq/kg diet) for 1 week. K-ATPase activity was measured by a microfluorometric assay in which ATP hydrolysis is coupled to oxidation of NADH. Low-K animals had plasma K = 3.1 +/- 0.2 as compared with 5.5 +/- 0.5 mEq/l in high-K animals. Low-K animals had significant K-ATPase activity in CNT, CCD (cortical collecting duct) and MCD (medullary collecting duct). On the other hand, K-ATPase activity in all 3 segments from high-K animals was not significantly different from zero. These results support a hypothesis that chronic K loading suppresses the ouabain-insensitive K-ATPase in the distal nephron.

Recent studies have revealed that both the thin segment of the long loop of Henle and the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) are morphologically and functionally nonuniform along their lengths. In the present study, we have carried out measurements of Na+-K+-ATPase activity in thin limb and IMCD segments microdissected from different positions along the axis of the rat inner medulla. Among collecting duct segments, in control rats, Na+-K+-ATPase activity was highest in the initial quarter of the IMCD. The Na+-K+-ATPase activity was lower and relatively uniform along the remaining three quarters of the IMCD. Na+-K+-ATPase activities in cortical and outer medullary collecting duct segments were similar to previously reported values. The Na+-K+-ATPase activity in the initial quarter of the IMCD was increased following in vivo deoxycorticosterone administration (by 140%) and following dietary NaCl restriction (by 100%). These procedures increased Na+-K+-ATPase activity by smaller degrees or not at all in the remaining three-quarters of the IMCD. Thin descending limbs and thin ascending limbs from all regions of the inner medulla had low but readily measurable values. Based on these results, we conclude that all inner medullary renal tubule segments have measurable Na+-K+-ATPase activities that could potentially drive solute active transport.

The dominant K+ transport pathways in rabbit inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells were identified using an extracellular K+ electrode and fluorometric estimates of membrane potential. Ba2+ (5 mM) caused an initial rate of net K+ influx (61 +/- 6 nmol K+.min-1. mg protein-1) equivalent to the net K+ efflux (59 +/- 5 nmol K+. min-1.mg protein-1) induced by ouabain (0.1 mM). Addition of ouabain to Ba2+ -treated cells caused no net K+ flux. Membrane potential experiments demonstrated a K+ conductance that was inhibited by Ba2+. Thus K+ transport in the IMCD occurs principally via Ba2+ -sensitive K+ conductive pathway(s) and Na+-K+-ATPase. In studies that examine the metabolic determinants of K+ transport in the IMCD, glucose (but not 3-O-methylglucose) augmented oxygen consumption (QO2; + 12%) and cell K+ content (+12%), whereas iodoacetic acid, an inhibitor of glycolysis, promoted a release of cell K+. However, inhibition of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation with rotenone demonstrated that glycolysis alone could not maintain cell K+ content. Thus glucose metabolism plays an important role in K+ transport in the IMCD, but both glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation are required to maintain optimal cellular K+ gradients.

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)

We examined the hypothesis that proton-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (H-K-ATPase) mediates K absorption and acidification in the inner stripe of the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi). Rabbits were fed a low-K diet (0.55% K) for 7-14 d because we have demonstrated previously that this low-K diet stimulates K-absorptive flux by the OMCDi. Proton secretion was measured as net total CO2 flux (JTCO2) by microcalorimetry. After basal collections, either vehicle or an inhibitor of gastric H-K-ATPase, omeprazole (0.1 mM), was added to the perfusate during the second period. Addition of vehicle to the perfusate changed neither the transepithelial voltage (VT, in millivolts) nor the JTCO2. In contrast, the addition of omeprazole (0.1 mM) to the perfusate abolished JTCO2 (from 14.5 +/- 5.6 to -0.1 +/- 3.1 pmol.mm-1.min-1) without significantly affecting VT. In additional experiments, in 16 tubules there was significant net K absorption (JK) of 5.0 +/- 1.0 pmol.mm-1.min-1 during the basal period, which exceeded the rate of K absorption that could be attributed to a paracellular voltage-mediated pathway (JKP = 1.0 +/- 0.4 pmol.mm-1.min-1, P less than 0.01). Administration of vehicle did not significantly affect either VT or JK. However, omeprazole abolished JK (from 5.1 +/- 1.0 to 0.1 +/- 2.5 pmol.mm-1.min-1) without affecting VT or JNa. The present results demonstrate that the OMCDi possesses an active, omeprazole-sensitive acidification and K-absorptive mechanism. These findings are consistent with the presence of H-K-ATPase activity in this nephron segment.

We compared transport of K+ and Rb+ across the rabbit cortical collecting duct to gain insight into the mechanisms of K+ secretion. Passive tracer fluxes, active secretory rates, electrophysiological behavior, and the ability of each ion to support Na+-K+-ATPase activity were determined. When active transport was inhibited by amiloride, K+ permeability was twice the Rb+ permeability. Transepithelial conductance (GT) was half as great in solutions where 5 mM Rb+ replaced 5 mM K+. When 4 mM Ba2+ was added to the lumen, both Rb+ and K+ permeability fell to values not different from that expected for paracellular diffusion. The relationship between Ba2+-induced changes in the K+ and Rb+ permeabilities and in the simultaneously measured GT provides strong evidence that K+ transport across the apical membrane is largely, if not exclusively, conductive. We also determined that net K+ secretion is greater than net Rb+ secretion (when each is the abundant ion). The reasons for this difference probably involve several steps in the K+ secretory process and include the following: 1) reduced ATPase activity in the presence of Rb+ (approximately 80%) compared with K+, 2) reduction of Na+ absorption, and 3) partial blockade of the apical (and perhaps basolateral) K+ conductance. Although there were quantitative differences between K+ and Rb+ transport, we found no evidence suggesting that these ions are transported by different mechanisms.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is natriuretic and inhibits collecting duct sodium transport by poorly defined mechanisms. To determine the mechanism of this inhibition, we have studied the effect of PGE2 on ouabain-sensitive (transport-dependent) oxygen consumption (QO2), ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake and ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity in fresh suspensions of rabbit inner medullary collecting duct cells, as well as Na+-K+-ATPase activity in inner medullary membranes. PGE2 (10(-5) M) reduced total QO2 by 21.6 +/- 2.3% (mean +/- SE) and reduced the ouabain-sensitive component of QO2 in IMCD cells. PGE2 failed to inhibit QO2 in the absence of sodium or in the presence of ouabain and blunted the increase in QO2 in response to amphotericin B. These results suggested that PGE2 inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase activity. Inhibition of pump activity was confirmed by measurements of 86Rb+ uptake: PGE2 (10(-5) M) reduced ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake by 57% at 10 s without altering equilibrium uptake. Furthermore, PGE2 (10(-6) M) reduced ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity by 46% in permeabilized inner medullary collecting duct cells. PGF2 alpha (10(-5) M) did not significantly alter QO2, 86Rb+ uptake, or Na+-K+-ATPase activity. These results demonstrate that PGE2 inhibits inner medullary collecting duct Na+-K+-ATPase activity and suggest a role for this inhibition in the natriuretic effect of PGE2.
