Abstract The effect of antidiuretic hormone ([Arg]vasopressin, ADH) on intracellular calcium activity [Ca2+]i of isolated perfused rabbit cortical thick ascending limb (cTAL) segments was investigated with the calcium fluorescent dye fura-2. The fluorescence emission ratio at 500–530 nm (R) was monitored as a measure of [Ca2+]i after excitation at 335 nm and 380 nm. In addition the transepithelial potential difference (PD te) and transepithelial resistance (R te) of the tubule were measured simultaneously. After addition of ADH (1–4 nmol/l) to the basolateral side of the cTAL R increased rapidly, but transiently, from 0.84±0.05 to 1.36±0.08 (n = 46). Subsequently, within 7–12 min R fell to control values even in the continued presence of ADH. The increase in R evoked by the ADH application corresponded to a rise of [Ca2+]i from a basal level of 155±23 nmol/l [Ca2+]i up to 429±53 nmol/l [Ca2+]i at the peak of the transient, as estimated by intra- or extracellular calibration procedures. The electrical parameters (PD te and R te) of the tubules were not changed by ADH. The ADH-induced Ca2+ transient was dependent on the presence of Ca2+ on the basolateral side, whereas luminal Ca2+ had no effect. d(CH2)5[Tyr(Me)2]2,Arg8vasopressin, a V1 antagonist (Manning compound, 10 nmol/l), blocked the ADH effect on [Ca2+]i completely (n = 5). The V2 agonist 1-desamino-[d-Arg8]vasopressin (10 nmol/l, n=4), and the cAMP analogues, dibutyryl-cAMP (400 μmol/l, n = 4), 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (100 μmol/l, n = 1) or 8-bromo-cAMP (200 μmol/1, n = 4) had no influence on [Ca2+]i. The ADH-induced [Ca2+]i increase was not sensitive to the calcium-channel blockers nifedipine and verapamil (100 μmol/l, n = 4). We conclude that ADH acts via V1 receptors to increase cytosolic calcium activity transiently in rabbit cortical thick ascending limb segments, possibly by an initial Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and by further Ca2+ influx through Ca2+ channels in the basolateral membrane. These channels are insensitive to L-type Ca2+ channel blockers, e.g. nifedipine and verapamil.
