    Notes: Abstract In order to study the characteristic of contraluminal transport of hydrophylic small fatty acids the in situ stopped flow microperfusion technique [12] has been applied. By measuring with 4 s contact time the decrease in the contraluminal concentration of the respective radiolabelled substances the concentration dependence of the influx into the cortical cells was tested. The 4 s decrease in contraluminal concentration of chloroacetate,l-lactate,d-lactate, 3-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate was between 26% and 31%. For each substance the percent decrease was the same, no matter whether it was offered in a concentration of 0.1 or 10 mmol/l. Contraluminal disappearance of 0.1 mmol/ll-lactate was not influenced by 5 mmol/l H2DIDS, probenecid, phloretin, mersalyl or cyanocinnamate, but it was significantly (37%) inhibited by 5-nitro-2-(phenyl-propyl-amino) benzoate, a blocker of the nonspecific anion channel. The percent decrease in propionate uptake was somewhat larger — between 36% and 39% — but again not different at 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10 mmol/l. With pyruvate the contraluminal decrease was 20% at 0.1 mmol/l and 31% at 10 mmol/l. The percent disappearance of the aromatic pyrazinoate was 38% and 34% at 0.1 and 10 mmol/l and for nicotinate 42% and 22%, respectively. The disappearance of nicotinate (0.1 mmol/l) was significantly inhibited by 10 mmol/l pyrazinoate and paraaminohippurate (PAH). The data are in agreement with the hypothesis that the hydrophilic small fatty acids traverse the contraluminal cell side by simple diffusion, possibly via the unspecific anion channel [14], pyruvate via the dicarboxylic acid pathway in a cooperative manner and pyrazinoate, as well as nicotinate, via the PAH pathway.

    Notes: Abstract The 3.5 s efflux ofd-lactate (1 mmol/l) injected in the lumen of the late proximal convolution as well as the zero net flux transtubular concentration difference ofd-lactate, which is a measure of its active transtubular transport rate, were determined. The inhibitory potency of small fatty acids and their analogs added to the perfusate in a concentration of 10 mmol/l on both, the 3.5 s efflux and in most cases also the 45 s transtubular concentration difference ofd-lactate was measured. It was found that 1. small fatty acids from acetate to octanoate inhibit 3.5s efflux ofd-lactate, the largest inhibition being exerted by propionate and butyrate. With increasing chain length the inhibitory potency decreased and disappeared with decanoate. 2. Considering the acetate-, propionate- and butyrate analogs, introduction of an electron attracting group such as Cl, Br, I, CN, SH, N3 on C atom 2 increased the inhibitory potency, compared to the unsubstituted fatty acid. An OH on C2 increased or did not change the inhibition while an OH on C atom 3 reduced or blunted the inhibition. A keto-group, as it is present in glyoxylate prevented inhibition, but pyruvate inhibited to the same extent as lactate, and acetoacetate was even more inhibitory than 3-hydroxybutyrate. Cl substitution on C3 preserved the strong inhibitory potency, while 4-Cl butyrate, was only sparsely inhibitory. A NH 3 + group at any position precludes inhibition. 3. As seen with Cl or OH substituted propionate and butyrate the inhibitory potency increased with decreasingpK a of the compounds. 4. Increasing the chain length by a CH3 as from acetate to propionate, from glycolate to lactate and also from glyoxylate to pyruvate increased the inhibitory potency. 5. When tested against the 3.5 s efflux ofl-lactate, the same inhibitory pattern was seen as withd-lactate. 6. The transport of chloroacetate, glycolate and acetoacetate, which were available in a radio-labeled form of high specific activity, was measured directly in 3.5 s efflux studies. It was Na+-dependent and could be inhibited by 10 mmol/ll-lactate. Glyoxylate, on the other hand, which did not inhibitd-lactate transport, did also not show a Na+-dependent,l-lactate inhibitable efflux from the tubular lumen. The data indicate that a variety of short chain fatty acids and their analogs are transported by the same Na+-dependent transport system in the brush border which transportsl- andd-lactate. The specificity is determined by the molecule size, hydrophobicity of one part of the molecule, the electron attracting abilities of substitutes on C-atom 2 or 3 and the charge distribution on the molecule.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An proximalen Tubuli und medullären Sammelrohren von Ratten wurde der isotone Natriumtransport ΆNa iso und die Gleichgewichtskonzentrationsdifferenz Δc Na bei Nettosubstanzfluß und Nettovolumenfluß Null gemessen. Die peritubulären Capillaren waren bei diesen Messungen künstlich durchströmt, und zwar in der ersten Serie mit einer Calcium-freien Lösung bzw. einer Lösung, die 3 mÄq Ca++/l enthielt, in einer zweiten Serie mit einer Lösung, die kein ADH bzw. 5 mE/l ADH enthielt. Zugabe von ADH oder Weglassen von Calcium aus dem Perfusat hatten keinen Einfluß auf den isotonen Natriumtransport. Die Natrium-Gleichgewichtskonzentration bei Nettosubstanzfluß Null war jedoch stark erniedrigt. Die Befunde sprechen dafür, daß bei Fehlen von Calcium oder Zugabe von ADH die Permeabilität für Natriumionen erhöht ist, daß aber im Gegensatz zum Verhalten von Amphibienhäuten der aktive Natriumtransport unbeeinflußt bleibt.
    Notes: Summary Isotonic sodium transport, ΆNa iso, and the transtubular concentration difference, Δc Na, at equilibrium under conditions of zero net solvent and solute fluxes were measured in the proximal tubules and medullary collecting ducts of rats. Peritubular capillaries were simultaneously perfused, in the first group of experiments with a solution containing no Ca++ or 3 mEq/l of Ca++, and in the second group with a solution which contained either no ADH or 5 mU/l of ADH. Addition of ADH or omission of Ca++ from the capillary perfusate did not affect isotonic sodium transport. The equilibrium concentration difference of sodium, Δc Na, was, however, greatly reduced under the same conditions. The results indicate that in the absence of Ca++, or in the presence of ADH, the permeability for sodium is increased, but that in contradistinction to the behaviour of amphibian skins, active sodium transport remains unaffected.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch Mikropunktion und -perfusion der Vasa recta an der freigelegten Nierenpapille von Wistarratten wurde es möglich, die schwankenden Harnstoff- und Natriumkonzentrationen im Interstitium des Nierenmarks zu beseitigen und definierte Versuchsbedingungen für die Sammelrohre zu schaffen. An diesen „funktionell” isolierten Sammelrohrabschnitten wurdenin situ sowohl die Gleichgewichtskonzentrationsdifferenz bei fehlendem Nettosubstanz-und -volumenfluß (ΔC Na) als auch der Nettonatriumtransport (Φ Na) bei gleicher Natriumkonzentration auf beiden Seiten der Sammelrohrwand gemessen. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß unter diesen Versuchsbedingungen, bei denen die Tiere in Antidiurese sind, die Natriumrückresorption aus den Sammelrohren isoton abläuft. Die Versuche wurden an vier Tiergruppen durchgeführt: an adrenalektomierten Tieren, an normal ernährten Tieren, an salzarm ernährten Tieren und an normal ernährten Tieren, die zusätzlich Aldosteron bekamen. Φ Na iso war bei adrenalektomierten Tieren 1,2·10−5 bei normal ernährten Tieren 3,1·10−5, bei salzarm ernährten Tieren 4,1·10−5 und bei normal ernährten Tieren unter Aldosteronsubstitution 4,2·10−5 μÄq·mm−2·sec−1. Die entsprechenden ΔC Na werte waren 4, 31, 98, 93 mÄq/l. Unter der Annahme, daßΦ Na iso die Transportkapazität des Systems angibt und daß ΔC Na bei gegebenemΦ Na iso umgekehrt proportional der Leckpermeabilität für Natriumionen ist, kann man aus den vorliegenden Daten schließen, daß Aldosteron am Sammelrohr nicht nur die innere Transportkapazität für Na erhöht, sondern auch die Leckpermeabilität für Na herabsetzt.
    Notes: Summary Micropuncture and -perfusion were performed on vasa recta of the exposed renal papilla in Wistar rats in order to abolish uncontrollable changes of sodium and urea concentration within the medullary interstitium. Thereby the collecting tubules could be studied under well defined experimental conditions. The transport of sodium in the absence of a transtubular concentration difference (Φ Na) as well as differences in steady state concentration of sodium (ΔC Na) at zero net flux of water and solutes were measuredin situ in these functionally isolated collecting ducts. Four groups of animals were studied: adrenalectomized rats, control rats on a normal diet, rats on low sodium diet and normally fed rats with additional aldosterone administration. The respectiveΦ Na were 1.2, 3.1, 4.1 and 4.2·10−5 μeq×mm−2×sec−1, while ΔC Na were 4, 31, 98 and 93 meq/l. One may assume thatΦ Na iso is a measure of the transport capacity of the system and that ΔC Na at a givenΦ Na iso is inversely proportional the leak permeability. Under these conditions our data suggest, that aldosterone causes an increase of intrinsic transport capacity and at the same time a decrease of leak permeability for sodium ions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An Ratten wurden Mikropunktionsuntersuchungen am proximalen Tubulus und am Sammelrohr bei Durchblutung der peritubulären Capillaren bzw. Vasa recta sowie bei künstlicher Perfusion dieser Blutgefäße durchgeführt. In Abhängigkeit von der Höhe der interstitiellen Natriumkonzentration wurden der Nettonatriumtransport (ΆNa iso) bei gleicher Natriumkonzentration zu beiden Seiten der Tubuluswand und die Gleichgewichtskonzentrationsdifferenz (Δc Na) bei fehlendem Nettovolumen- und Nettosubstanzfluß gemessen. Bei Variation der Natriumkonzentration im Gewebe durch Perfusion der peritubulären Capillaren mit 155 bzw. 300 mÄq/l Na änderten sich weder ΆNa iso noch Δc Na für den proximalen Tubulus (ΆNa iso 8,4 bzw. 7,9·10−5 μÄq · mm−2 · sec−1; Δc Na 24 bzw. 24 mÄq/l). Veränderung der Natriumkonzentration im Blut durch Infusion hypertoner NaCl Lösung oder Peritonealdialyse mit isotoner Mannitlösung führten zu prinzipiell gleichen Ergebnissen. Bei Perfusion der Vasa recta mit Lösungen, die 145 und 300 mÄq/l Natrium entheilten, blieben ΆNa iso wie Δc Na über die Sammelrohrwand ebenfalls konstant (ΆNa iso 4,1 bzw. 4,1·10−5 μÄq · mm−2 · sec−1; Δc Na 98 bzw. 104 mÄq/l). Proximale Tubuli und Sammelrohre verhalten sich demnach bei Variation der interstitiellen Natriumkonzentration gleich. Da die Wasserresorption aus den Sammelrohren von dem durch Gegenstrommultiplikation erzeugten Natriumkonzentrationsanstieg im Markinterstitium abhängt, die Natriumresorption aus den Sammelrohren aber wie die vorliegenden Befunde zeigen von eben dieser Natriumkonzentration unabhängig ist, ist dem Warmblüterorganismus die Möglichkeit gegeben, Natrium- und Wasserresorption unabhängig voneinander zu variieren. Die Natrium- und Wasserresorption aus den Sammelrohren werden jedoch beide durch den Gehalt der Sammelrohrflüssigkeit an permeablen Nichtelektrolyten, wie z. B. Harnstoff, beeinflußt.
    Notes: Summary Micropuncture experiments were performed on proximal tubules and collecting ducts of rat kidneys with and without artificial perfusion of surrounding capillaries or vasa recta respectively. Net sodium flux (ΆNa iso) was estimated under conditions of varying but equal sodium concentrations on both sides of the tubular wall. The transtubular wall equilibrium concentration difference of sodium (Δc Na) was also measured in these nephron segments under conditions of zero volume and solute fluxes. In the proximal tubule ΆNa iso of 8.4 and 7.9×10−5 μeq × mm−2 × sec−1 at sodium concentrations of 155 and 300 meq/l in the perfusion fluid and Δc Na of 24 and 24 meq/l respectively did not vary significantly. Variations of sodium concentrations in blood produced by hypertonic saline infusion or peritoneal dialysis with mannitol resulted in essentially similar values of ΆNa iso and Δc Na. In the collecting ducts also ΆNa iso and Δc Na remained uninfluenced by induced variations in sodium concentrations of the perfusion fluid. ΆNa iso at sodium concentration of 145 and 300 meq/l in the perfusion fluid of vasa recta was 4.1 and 4.1×10−5 μeq × mm−2 × sec−1 respectively and Δc Na was 98 and 104 meq/l respectively. Water reabsorption in the collecting ducts depends on the increase of sodium concentration produced in the medulla by the countercurrent multiplier system. The results represented here indicate that, in mammals sodium reabsorption is independent from the sodium concentration of the interstitial fluid. Therefore the sodium reabsorption and the water reabsorption can be varied independently from each other. Both, sodium and water reabsorption in the collecting ducts are however dependent upon the concentrations of permeable nonelectrolytes such as urea in the collecting duct fluid.

    Notes: Summary In previous micropuncture studies with collecting ducts from the rat kidney, aldosterone was shown to increase the isotonic sodium reabsorption as well as the transepithelial concentration difference for sodium under steady state conditions with zero net flux. It was thought that the latter effect might have been partially due to a reduced leak permeability for sodium caused by the action of the hormone. To examine this possibility, the24Na efflux from the collecting duct was studied and found to be decreased by aldosterone. It follows that the hormone must cause a substantial decrease in sodium permeability.
