To produce a 125I-labelled glucagon suitable for radioligand assays, we studied the influence of variations in the lactoperoxidase iodination method. Both the degree of iodine substitution and the formation of monoiodo- or diiodo-tyrosines were pH dependent. The substitution increased and the diiodo-/monoiodotyrosine ratio decreased when pH increased. These two factors affected the immunoreactivity of the iodoglucagon relatively independently of each other. It was found that iodination at pH 10.0 with an average of 0.3 gatom I/mol glucagon resulted in 125I-labelled glucagon with higher immunoreactivity and stability than that produced at the conventional pH 7.5 and 8.5.

These studies examined regulation of superficial proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) transport as a function of length. When single nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR) increased from 28.7 +/- 0.7 nl/min in hydropenia to 41.5 +/- 0.4 nl/min in euvolemia, bicarbonate, chloride, and water reabsorption in the early (1st mm) PCT increased proportionally: from 354 +/- 21 peq/mm X min, 206 +/- 55 peq/mm X min, and 5.9 +/- 0.4 nl/mm X min to 520 +/- 12 peq/mm X min, 585 +/- 21 peq/mm X min, and 10.1 +/- 0.4 nl/mm X min, respectively. These high transport rates did not increase further, however, when SNGFR went to 51.2 +/- 0.7 or 50.7 +/- 0.6 nl/min after atrial natriuretic factor or glucagon administration. Anion and water transport rates in the late PCT were lower and exhibited less flow dependence. During chronic metabolic alkalosis, acidification was inhibited in the late but not early PCT. In conclusion, the early PCT is distinguished from the late PCT by having high-capacity, flow-responsive but saturable, anion- and water-reabsorptive processes relatively unaffected by alkalemia.

The effect of intravenous omeprazole (40 and 80 mg) on the gastric and duodenal potential difference (PD) and pH was investigated in 9 healthy volunteers. Gastric PD and pH increased significantly (p < 0.05) following omeprazole, and the increases were equal following the two doses. No changes were found in duodenal PD or pH. It has been claimed that gastric PD changes following acid secretion inhibition with cimetidine and glucagon might be due to changes in the parietal cell surface area. Omeprazole causes no changes in the parietal cell structure, and the changes in gastric PD following omeprazole might therefore be ascribed to changes in mucosal electrophysiologic transport or resistance.
