Sexual Dimorphic Pattern of Renal Transporters and Electrolyte Homeostasis
Open accessAbstract
Compared with males, females have lower BP before age 60, blunted hypertensive response to angiotensin II, and a leftward shift in pressure natriuresis. This study tested the concept that this female advantage associates with a distinct sexual dimorphic pattern of transporters along the nephron. We applied quantitative immunoblotting to generate profiles of transporters, channels, claudins, and selected regulators in both sexes and assessed the physiologic consequences of the differences. In rats, females excreted a saline load more rapidly than males did. Compared with the proximal tubule of males, the proximal tubule of females had greater phosphorylation of Na + /H + exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3), distribution of NHE3 at the base of the microvilli, and less abundant expression of Na + /Pi cotransporter 2, claudin-2, and aquaporin 1. These changes associated with less bicarbonate reabsorption and higher lithium clearance in females. The distal nephrons of females had a higher abundance of total and phosphorylated Na + /Cl − cotransporter (NCC), claudin-7, and cleaved forms of epithelial Na + channel (ENaC) α and γ subunits, which associated with a lower baseline plasma K + concentration. A K + -rich meal increased the urinary K + concentration and decreased the level of renal phosphorylated NCC in females. Notably, we observed similar abundance profiles in female versus male C57BL/6 mice. These results define sexual dimorphic phenotypes along the nephron and suggest that lower proximal reabsorption in female rats expedites excretion of a saline load and enhances NCC and ENaC abundance and activation, which may facilitate K + secretion and set plasma K + at a lower level.

“We refer to this as a model of a man, instead of more generally as a human model, due to the known sex differences in renal K+ handling [24–26], ALD concentration [27], and plasma K+ concentration [28], all of which affect K+ homeostasis.”

“Studies in rodents showed that the major Na + -reabsorbing pathway in the PT, mediated by the Na + /H + exchanger (NHE3) and the Na + -dependent Pi transporter 2a (NaPi2a), is less active in females, resulting in higher salt delivery to downstream segments [ 11 , 12 , 15 , 111 , 112 ].”

“On the other hand, observations in mice and rats showed that ENaC expression is higher in females, likely driven by the combined effects of the sex chromosome complement and E2-mediated activation of the estrogen receptor α (ERα) [ 12 , 15 , 110 , 115 , 116 ] (Fig. 1 ).”

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.
