    Notes: Abstract. Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that in the mouse and rat nephron Ca2+ and Mg2+ are not reabsorbed in the medullary part of the thick ascending limb (mTAL) of Henle's loop. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the absence of transepithelial Ca2+ and Mg2+ transport in the mouse mTAL is due to its relative low permeability to divalent cations. For this purpose, transepithelial ion net fluxes were measured by electron probe analysis in isolated perfused mouse mTAL segments, when the transepithelial potential difference (PDte.) was varied by chemical voltage clamp, during active NaCl transport inhibition by luminal furosemide. The results show that transepithelial Ca2+ and Mg2+ net fluxes in the mTAL are not driven by the transepithelial PDte. At zero voltage, a small but significant net secretion of Ca2+ into the tubular lumen was observed. With a high lumen-positive PDte generated by creating a transepithelial bath-to-lumen NaCl concentration gradient, no Ca2+ and Mg2+ reabsorption was noted; instead significant and sustained Ca2+ and Mg2+ net secretion occurred. When a lumen-positive PDte was generated in the absence of apical furosemide, but in the presence of a transepithelial bath-to-lumen NaCl concentration gradient, a huge Ca2+ net secretion and a lesser Mg2+ net secretion, not modified by ADH, were observed. Replacement of Na+ by K+ in the lumen perfusate induced, in the absence of PDte changes, important but reversible net secretions of Ca2+ and Mg2+. In conclusion, our results indicate that the passive permeability of the mouse mTAL to divalent cations is very low and not influenced by ADH. This nephron segment can secrete Ca2+ and Mg2+ into the luminal fluid under conditions which elicit large lumen-positive transepithelial potential differences. Given the impermeability of this epithelium to Ca2+ and Mg2+, the secretory processes would appear to be of cellular origin.

    Notes: Abstract Torasemide (1-isopropyl-(4-(3-methylphenylamino)pyrid-3-yl)urea) is a new diuretic. The present study examines the effects of this substance in the isolated perfused thick ascending limb (TAL) of mouse and rabbit kidney. In cortical TAL segments of the rabbit, torasemide added to the lumen perfusate led to a fall in equivalent short circuit current (= transepithelial voltage divided by transepithelial resistance, which corresponds to the rate of chloride reabsorption) with a half maximal inhibition concentration of 3 · 10−7 mol/l. This effect was accompanied by a hyperpolarization of the luminal and basolateral membrane from −78 to −81 mV and from −72 to −81 mV, respectively. A similar hyperpolarization of both membrane voltages was also observed in medullary TAL segments of the mouse. Torasemide, added to the basolateral perfusate of cortical TAL segments of the rabbit, also inhibited the equivalent short circuit current. However, 3 · 10−5 mol/l were necessary for a half maximal inhibition. The fall in the equivalent short circuit current was accompanied by a significant increase in transepithelial resistance from 34 to 38 Ω cm2, by an increase in the fractional resistance of the basolateral membrane, and by a hyperpolarization mainly of the basolateral membrane. Again, similar results were obtained in the medullary TAL segment of the mouse. The strong inhibitory effect of torasemide from the lumen side can be explained by an interference with the Na+ 2Cl−K+ carrier in the luminal membrane. In fact, torasemide apparently is structurally related to furosemide. The weaker effect of torasemide from the peritubular side can, at least in part, be explained as an interference with chloride channels present in the basolateral membrane. Torasemide is also structurally related to chloride channel blockers such as diphenylamine-2-carboxylate.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the present study was to examine compounds related to torasemide with respect to their ability to block the equivalent short circuit current, corresponding to the rate of chloride reabsorption, in isolated in vitro perfused cortical thick ascending limbs of Henle of the rabbit. The torasemide molecule was modified with respect to the anionic sulfonylurea group, and the secondary amine linked to the pyridine ring. Our results indicate that only few of the tested 48 torasemide-related compounds were able to inhibit from both epithelial sides like torasemide. Only few of the tested compounds were equally effective as torasemide from the lumen side. Some analogues were acting only from the luminal side and some only from the peritubular side. The correlations between structure and potency of inhibition from the luminal side allow the following conclusions: a) The secondary amine moiety linked to the pyridine ring (toluidine in case of torasemide) can be replaced by a cycloalkylamine or, with some loss of inhibitory potency, by alkylamines. The inhibitory potency is increased with the number of C-atoms in the cycloalkylamine substituted compounds (optimum C7 to C8), and is also depending on the length of the alkylamines (optimum C4). b) The secondary amine seems to be required since nitrogen cannot be replaced by −S- or −SO2-. c) The sulfonylurea group cannot be substituted by other anionic groups such as −SO 3 − or −COO−. d) If the pyridine ring is replaced by a NO2-substituted phenyl ring, the inhibitory potency from the luminal side is lost. However, these compounds act still (with some loss of potency) from the peritubular side. The data indicate that several of the conclusions drawn from our previous systematic surveys of chloride channel blockers and loop diuretics of the furosemide type, i.e. blockers of the Na+2Cl−K+ carrier, hold also true for compounds related to torasemide. In addition, the pyridine ring is responsible for some specific structure activity correlations.

    Notes: Abstract On the basis of our findings with diphenylamine-2-carboxylate [5] we have searched for compounds which possess an even higher affinity for the Cl−-channels in the basolateral membrane of the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. To quantitiy the inhibitory potency, we performed measurements of the equivalent short circuit current, corresponding to the secondary active transport of Cl− [8] and measurements of the voltage across the basolateral membrane. A survey of 219 compounds reveals that relatively simple modifications in the structure of diphenylamine-2-carboxylate led to very potent blockers such as 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate which inhibits the short circuit current half maximally (IC50) at 8·10−8 mol/l. A comparison of the structural formula and the respective IC50 values leads to several empirical conclusions: 1. The potent compounds are lipophilic due to the apolar residue (e.g. phenyl- or cycloalkyl group). Replacing this part of the molecule by an aliphatic chain (up to 4 C-atoms) leads to inactive compounds. 2. Most of the inhibitors are secondary amines. Linking other than with-NH- between the phenyl ring and the benzoic acid results in inactive compounds. Tertiary amines, such as in case of 2-(N,N-diphenylamine) benzoic acid or N-methylphenylaminebenzoic acid are poorly active. 3. The carboxylate group of the benzoate moiety must be in ortho position to the amino group. 4. Introduction of substituents into the benzoate moiety e.g.-NO2 (in meta position to the carboxylate group), or by-Cl (in para position to the carboxylate group) results in an increase of inhibitory potency. 5. A-CH2-,-C2H4-,-C3H6-) spacer between the amino bridge and the phenyl ring increases the affinity for the Cl−-channel by several orders of magnitude. The above described structure activity relationship renders it likely that these chloride channel blockers possess several sites of interaction: The negatively charged carboxylate group, the secondary amine group which probably carries a positive partial charge, and for the very potent agents (nos. 130, 143, 144, and 145) an additional negative partial charge at the respective-Cl or-NO2 substituent. Finally, also an apolar interaction with an cycloalkyl or cycloaryl residue seems to be required, and this site of interaction has a defined spacing from the secondary amino nitrogen.
