Mineralocorticoid effects on Na-K-ATPase in individual nephron segments

Garg, L. C., Knepper, M. A., Burg, M. B.·1981·American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology

Abstract

A fluorometric micromethod for the assay of Na-K-ATPase was used to determine Na-K-ATPase activity in 11 segments of the rabbit nephron. The Na-K-ATPase activity was found to be highest (greater than 100 pmol.mm1-.min-1) in proximal convoluted tubules (S1), medullary thick ascending limbs, distal convoluted tubules, and connecting tubules. There was a good correlation (r = 0.94) between Na-K-ATPase activity in different segments and net Na transport previously measured by in vitro tubule perfusion. Treatment of rabbits with deoxycorticosterone (DOCA) for 8-11 days produced increases in Na-K-ATPase activity of 100 and 500% in connecting tubules and cortical collecting ducts, respectively, without significant change in other segments. Maintenance on a low sodium diet for 12-18 days was associated with a 200% increase in Na-K-ATPase activity in cortical collecting ducts only. We conclude that the Na-K-ATPase activity is stimulated by mineralocorticoids in the cortical collecting duct in association with the previously observed changes in sodium transport.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
