1. Benzbromarone in the treatment of gout
Abstract Background Benzbromarone is a uricosuric drug that has been used in the treatment of gout over the last 30 years. Due to its potent inhibition of the dominant apical (luminal) urate exchanger in the human proximal tubule URAT1, it reduces the urate reabsorption, diminishing serum urate levels and therefore preventing gout flares. Main body of the

2. Efeitos não-genômicos dos hormônios esteróides - aldosterona e corticosterona - sobre a acidificação do túbulo proximal (S2) de ratos: estudos de microperfusão tubular e capilar, in vivo . / Nongenomic effect of steroid hormones - aldosterone and corticosterone - on acidification of rat proximal tubule (S2) studies by tubular and capillary microperfusion, in vivo .
The purpose was to determine if aldosterone and corticosterone act on the acidification of proximal tubule and if these hormonal effects are genomic and/or nongenomic. Bicarbonate reabsorption was evaluated by microperfusion. Aldosterone and corticosterone caused a significant increase in JHCO3-. In the presence of ethanol, actinomycin D, cycloheximide or es

3. Control of fluid absorption in the renal proximal tubule
Glomerulotubular balance was investigated in isolated, perfused rabbit proximal tubules in vitro in order to evaluate some of the mechanisms proposed to account for the proportionate relationship between glomerular filtration rate and fluid absorption generally observed in vivo. The rate of fluid transport from lumen to bath in proximal convoluted tubules in

4. Effects of Anion-Transport Inhibitors on NaCl Reabsorption in the Rat Superficial Proximal Convoluted Tubule
The effects of anion-transport inhibitors on volume reabsorption, and total CO2 concentrations were examined by in vivo microperfusion of superficial proximal convoluted tubules of rats. The luminal perfusion solution was a high-chloride, low-bicarbonate solution like that in the in vivo late proximal tubule. The anion-transport inhibitors were only added to

5. The measurement of nephron filtration rate and absolute reabsorption in the proximal tubule of the rabbit kidney.
Micropuncture studies were performed in the rabbit to determine nephron filtration rate and absolute fluid reabsorption in the proximal tubule in order to compare the latter value with data obtained with the in vitro microperfusion technique. New Zealand white rabbits, 2-2.8 kg, were studied. Nephron filtration rate was 21 nl/min (n equal to 48) and absolute

6. Factors governing the transepithelial potential difference across the proximal tubule of the rat kidney.
Previous measurements of the transepithelial potential difference (PD) of the proximal tubule have yielded widely conflicting values (range -20 to +3 mV). In a recent study, Kokko has demonstrated that the PD of the in vitro perfused isolated proximal tubule of the rabbit varies in a predictable way from -6 to +3 mV, depending on the concentration of chlorid

7. Dopamine decreases expression of type-1 angiotensin II receptors in renal proximal tubule.
Systemic and/or locally produced angiotensin II stimulates salt and water reabsorption in the renal proximal tubule. In vivo, dopamine (DA) may serve as a counterregulatory hormone to angiotensin II's acute actions on the proximal tubule. We examined whether dopamine modulates AT1 receptor expression in cultured proximal tubule cells (RPTC) expressing DA1 re

8. Endogenous production of angiotensin II modulates rat proximal tubule transport.
There is evidence that angiotensin II is synthesized by the proximal tubule and secreted into the tubular lumen. This study examined the functional significance of endogenously produced angiotensin II on proximal tubule transport in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Addition of 10(-11), 10(-8), and 10(-6) M angiotensin II to the lumen of proximal convoluted tubules

9. Role of the Na+/H+ antiporter in rat proximal tubule bicarbonate absorption.
Amiloride and the more potent amiloride analog, 5-(N-t-butyl) amiloride (t-butylamiloride), were used to examine the role of the Na+/H+ antiporter in bicarbonate absorption in the in vivo microperfused rat proximal convoluted tubule. Bicarbonate absorption was inhibited 29, 46, and 47% by 0.9 mM or 4.3 mM amiloride, or 1 mM t-butylamiloride, respectively. Se

10. Defective proximal tubular fluid reabsorption in transgenic aquaporin-1 null mice
To investigate the role of aquaporin-1 (AQP1) water channels in proximal tubule function, in vitro proximal tubule microperfusion and in vivo micropuncture measurements were done on AQP1 knockout mice. The knockout mice were generated by targeted gene disruption and found previously to be unable to concentrate their urine in response to water deprivation. Un

11. Angiotensin II stimulation of hydrogen ion secretion in the rat early proximal tubule. Modes of action, mechanism, and kinetics.
Physiologic concentrations of angiotensin II stimulate sodium transport by intestinal and renal early (S1) and late (S2) proximal tubule epithelial cells. We recently found that hydrogen ion secretion, which effects sodium bicarbonate absorption, was a transport function preferentially and potently increased by angiotensin II in S1 cells. S1 cells are normal

12. Arginine metabolism in cat kidney.
1. Arginine is essential for growth in the kitten and, because of the resulting hyperammonaemia, in the adult cat an arginine-free diet is life threatening. 2. The kidney is the main site of arginine synthesis. 3. This study was performed to determine whether the cat kidney synthesizes arginine and to establish which factors, such as low citrullinaemia, defe
