    Notes: Summary A child with unilateral renal hypoplasia, high plasma renin levels and hypertension was found to have large numbers of juxtaglomerular granular cells in the affected kidney. They were seen adjacent to and sometimes in the interior of hyalinized glomeruli or, in loose nests scattered in the interstitium. Ultrastructurally they contained large numbers of crystalline protogranules in the Golgi region and also displayed other features suggestive of hyperactivity. Atrophic tubules, smooth muscle and mast cells were present in considerable numbers. Well-preserved renal cortex remained in the affected kidney with no demonstrable juxtaglomerular granularity. After unilateral nephrectomy the patient became normotensive and plasma renin levels became normal. Thus it appears that the juxtaglomerular cells are able to produce and release renin independent of the structural integrity of the juxtaglomerular apparatus and renal glomerulus.

    Notes: Summary Cadmium injection in rats affects the genito-urinary system. The renal effects are generally considered to be mainly tubular. Light microscopy of 29 specimens confirms cellular damage in the glomeruli with changes in glomerular capillaries. Electron microscopic changes in the glomeruli confirm changes in the podocytes, thickening of the basement lamina, the occurrence of electron dense deposits in association with the capillary endothelium with platelet and polymorphonuclear cell accumulations which suggests opening of the endothelial junction of the glomerular vessels.

    Notes: Abstract This article reviews current knowledge as to the physiological mechanisms that control renal vascular resistence. The contribution of both extrinsic and intrinsic neuro-humoral regulation of both blood flow and glomerular filtration rate are described. The changes that occur both to the renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate in the pathophysiological situation of “pre-renal uraemia” as well as “acute tubular necrosis” are described. Within this setting pharmacological manoeuvres that may improve both renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate are discussed. In addition, the indications for and general principles of haemo- and peritoneal dialysis are described.

    Notes: Summary Upon intravenous injection of 3H-gentamicin in rats, radioactivity in serum rapidly declined to 3% of total within 1 h. Kidneys accumulated a constant amount (14%) of the injected radioactivity between 2 and 6 h after injection. In mice, simultaneous or prior application of unlabeled gentamicin (10 mg/kg) diminished the renal concentration of 3H-gentamicin, and aprotinin (10 mg/kg) was able to compete with labeled aprotinin. Aprotinin did not diminish the renal accumulation of gentamicin and vice versa. However, since 10 mg/kg aprotinin raised also the plasma concentrations of both 3H-gentamicin and 125I-aprotinin, the evidences resulting from these experiments are limited. Mouse kidney cortex was processed for light and electron microscopic autoradiography at different times following i.v. injection of 3H-gentamicin. Gentamicin enters the apical part of proximal tubule cells. Initially, brush border and basement membrane labeling is prominent, whereas lysosomes appear as intense and prevalent stores 20 min or later after injection. Fractionation of 3H-gentamicin loaded kidneys showed a similar distribution pattern of radioactivity and the lysosomal marker β-galactosidase. The same was true when the crude lysosomal fraction was subjected to density gradient centrifugation, which corroborates the microscopical findings. Radioactivity is partially bound to lysosomal structures, for repeated freezing of loaded lysosomes left 35% of radioactivity particle-bound. It is concluded that both gentamicin and peptides are handled in a similar manner by adsorption, followed by endocytosis and lysosomal sequestration in proximal tubule cells.

    Notes: Summary The plasma level of free fatty acids (FFA) in adrenalectomized rats increases by 50% after treatment with aldosterone (2 μg/100 g rat). Lipolytic activity in peripheral fat tissue is lowered after adrenalectomy and doubles after in vivo administration of aldosterone to adrenalectomized rats (measured as free fatty acid release in vitro from epididymal fat tissue). Lypolysis of adipose tissue stimulated by the in vitro presence of ACTH also increases after in vivo administration of aldosterone. Incorporation of intravenously administered label from U14C-palmitate into total extractable lipid of renal tissue is augmented 3 h after aldosterone administration to adrenalectomized rats, while no increase of the radioactivity is observed in total lipid from liver tissue. Treatment with aldosterone does not affect the total lipid content of kidney or liver in adrenalectomized rats. The oxygen consumption rate of kidney cortex slices with lactate, β-hydroxybuterate or acetoacetate as substrates is lowered after in vivo administration of aldosterone to adrenalectomized rats. With succinate, however, the respiratory rate of kidney slices increases after aldosterone treatment of adrenalectomized rats, the ouabain-sensitive respiration being more affected than the ouabain-insensitive respiration. An interpretation of the O2 consumption data implicating competition of lipid metabolism for CoA-SH is discussed.

    Notes: Summary 1. An antiserum was raised in rabbits against NaI extracted plasma membranes of rat kidney tubule cells. The IgG fraction of the antiserum was used for studies on (Na+K+)-ATPase and cation transport. 2. Immunodiffusion of the IgG against Triton X 100 solubilized subcellular fractions resulted in a precipitation line with basal lateral membranes and endoplasmic reticulum but not with brush borders. 3. The antibody inhibited (Na+K+)-ATPase activity of basal lateral membranes by 83%. Mg-ATPase was not affected. Kinetic analysis with Na+, K+ and Mg·ATP revealed noncompetitive inhibition. Hill constants were unchanged, excluding inhibition by a conformational change. 4. K+-stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase was inhibited to the same degree as was (Na+K+)-ATPase. 5. In renal epithelial cell cultures total22Na efflux and total42K-uptake were diminished by approximately 30% in the presence of the antibody. 6. It is concluded that an antibody can be raised inhibiting both (Na+K+)-ATPase and cation transport from the outside of the cell if a completely disintegrated membrane fraction is used for immunization and if the antibody is tested against antigen of the same organ from the same species. 7. The experiments do not exclude the presence of an additional (Na+K+)-ATPase antibody that is capable to inhibit the enzyme in vitro at the inside of the plasma membrane.

    Notes: Summary Clearance studies were performed in order to examine the effect of expansion of extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) on the maximal reabsorptive capacity for inorganic phosphate (TmPi) in acutely parathyroidectomized (PTX) and intact rats. TmPi values were obtained in both control and volume expansion. In PTX rats, the TmPi values in control and expansion were 8.25±1.52 and 6.14±1.02 μmol/min (mean values ±S.D.), respectively; the TmPi/ GFR values were 2.96±0.31 and 2.09±0.30 μmol/ml, respectively. Inintact rats, the TmPi values in control and expansion were 3.56±0.94 and 2.98 ±0.94 μmol/min, respectively, and the TmPi/GFR values were 1.34±0.23 and 1.05±0.23 μmol/ml, respectively. From these results it is concluded that expansion of ECFV decreases the TmPi values both in the absence and presence of parathyroid hormone.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 1. Narkotisierte Ratten wurden im akuten Versuch mit einer unterschwelligen, intravenös verabreichten Dosis von 204Tl+ behandelt, mit dem Ziel, die Eliminationskinetik von Thallium zu untersuchen. Die Elimination des Tl+ aus Blut fand mittels zwei Halbwertzeiten (bzw. 5 und 196 min) statt, $$V_{D_\beta }$$ betrug 1400ml. Die gleichen kinetische Größen erhielten wir nach chronischer Vorbehandlung von Ratten mit toxischen Mengen an Tl+. 2. Nach chronischer Behandlung mit Thallium (10 bzw. 30 ppm im Trinkwasser) erwies sich die Verteilung des Metalls über verschiedene Organe als unspezifisch. Lediglich im Nierenmark fanden wir eine signifikante Anhäufung. 3. Die renale Elimination ist ein wichtiger Ausscheidungsweg von Thallium, während außerdem (s. oben) eine Anhäufung des toxischen Metalles in der Niere stattfindet. Infolgedessen untersuchten wir den Einfluß stark wirksamer Diuretika wie Furosemid und Ethacrynsäure auf die Tl+-Ausscheidung. Die verstärkte Ausscheidung von Wasser und Ionen (Na+, K+, Cl−) wurde von einer signifikant beschleunigten Tl+-Ausscheidung begleitet. Hohe Dosen von Ethacrynsäure (25 mg/kg) erwiesen sich als besonders wirkungsvoll. Zwischen der Elimination von Kalium und Thallium stellten wir eine signifikante Korrelation fest, die bekannte Ähnlichkeit beider Metalle wurde hierdurch weiterhin betont. Der starke Anstieg der renalen Elimination von Thallium durch intensive diuretische Maßnahmen ist möglicherweise für die Behandlung der Thalliumvergiftung von praktischer Bedeutung.
    Notes: Abstract 1. In acute experiments anaesthetized rats were treated with a subthreshold dose of 204Tl+, given intravenously in order to study the elimination kinetics of Tl+. Thallium disappeared from whole blood by means of two different half-lives (5 and 196 min, respectively), whereas $$V_{D_\beta }$$ amounted to 1400 ml. The same kinetic parameters were found after chronic exposure to toxic amounts of Tl+. 2. After chronic exposure to thallium (10 or 30 ppm in the drinking water), the distribution of thallium over various organs proved non-specific. However, a pronounced accumulation was found in the renal medulla. 3. In view of the importance of the renal route in the elimination of Tl+ from the body and also because of the established accumulation of the toxic metal in the kidney, the influence of potent diuretic agents like furosemide and ethacrynic acid on the excretion of Tl+ was studied. The enhanced excretion of water and ions (Na+, K+, Cl−) was accompanied by a significantly accelerated excretion of thallium ions. High doses of ethacrynic acid (25 mg/kg) proved particularly powerful in this respect. Between the enhanced excretion of thallium and potassium ions a significant correlation was obvious, thus supporting the well-known similarity in the behaviour of these ions. The marked increase in renal elimination of thallium upon intensive diuretic treatment may be useful in the management of thallotoxicosis.

    Notes: Summary 1. Experiments with Brush Border Membranes Drugs were screened for inhibition of 125I-aprotinin binding to isolated rat renal brush border membranes. Cationic polymers were effective, and their primary amino groups were crucial. The polycationic aminoglycosides displaced 125I-aprotinin with low concentrations (50% inhibition by 50 μg/ml of gentamicin). The decreasing sequence of both number of amino groups and of inhibitory potency was: neomycin 〉 tobramycin 〉 gentamicin 〉 kanamycin 〉 streptomycin. Binding of 3H-gentamicin-C1 to the brush border membrane was saturable. The Scatchard plot indicated an association constant of 43 mM−1, and 18 nmoles per mg of membrane protein for the number of binding sites. Inhibition of 125I-aprotinin binding by gentamicin was competitive. The inhibition constant (KI) was 20 μg/ml with concentrations of 8 and 40 μg/ml of gentamicin. 2. Experiments with Lysosomes Gentamicin and aprotinin (200 μg/ml) activated β-glucuronidase and β-galactosidase from renal lysosomes, but not acid phosphatase. Gentamicin and aprotinin (300 μg/ml) increased the release of acid phosphatase from intact renal lysosomes. Lysosomal degradation of 125I-aprotinin into acid soluble split products was much slower than that of 125I-insulin. From our present and previous results it is concluded that binding to the brush border membrane occurs with chemically quite different, however basic drugs and that the number of amino groups per molecule is relevant. Nephrotoxicity of aminoglycosides may be related to their endocytic uptake through a direct action on lysosomes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les effets à long terme de l'hypophysectomie et de l'apport de prolactine sont étudiés chez l'Anguille européenne sur la structure histologique du rein. Seules les hauteurs épithéliales des tubes distal and collecteur initial sont réuites après 50 jours. La diminution des surface nucléaires est plus rapide et décelable après 5 jours dans le collecteur, puis les tubes distal et proximal 1 et 2, les différences étant hautement significatives (P 〈 0,001). Ces réponses peuvent être mises en parallèle avec la chute lente des électrolytes plasmatiques et du débit urinaire. La prolactine ovine (10μg/g/jour) surcompense les effets de l'hypophysectomie d'après les paramètres étudiés et même après 50 jours peut encore provoquer la differentiation de nouveaux tubules; son action reste toutefois moins intense que celle exercée chez l'animal intact. D'autres critères histologiques (épaisseur des bordures en brosse, activité mitotique, zone éosinophile striée basale des cellules proximales 2) et la rétention simultanée de sodium plaident aussi en faveur d'une activité fonctionnelle accrue du rein en plus de l'effet de la prolactine ovine sur les flux de sodium branchiaux.
    Notes: Summary Long term effects of hypophysectomy and ovine prolactin treatment on the histological picture of the kidney were investigated in European eels. The epithelial cell height is very slowly affected after hypophysectomy, the decrease being highly significant after 50 days only in the distal and the initial collecting tubules. Nuclear surfaces were more rapidly reduced, the regressive changes being first detected in the initial collecting tubule (5 days), then in the distal portion and the two proximal segments. No degenerative changes were observed. These structural responses may be correlated with the slow reduction of the urine flow and of the plasma electrolytes in the same species. Ovine prolactin treatment (10 μg/g/day) overcompensates the effects of hypophysectomy on the epithelial cell height and the nuclear area, and even after 50 days still induces the proliferation of new tubules although its action remains less intense than in intact eels. Other histological criteria (brush border thickness, mitotic activity, basal structure of proximal 2 cells) and sodium retention do suggest that these structural modifications reflect an increased functional activity of the kidney in addition to the effect of prolactin on sodium fluxes in the gills.

    Notes: Summary A clonal strain of anterior pituitary cells was derived from Rathke's pouch of the rat. These cells were shown to secrete ACTH, growth hormone and prolactin but no glycoprotein hormones, when grown in vitro. Cells from the 2A8 clone were implanted for one month under kidney capsules or into hypothalami of hypophysectomized female rats. Under the kidney capsule, prominent prolactin cells and poorly developed cells of other types were differentiated as seen in usual pituitary grafts. In hypophysiotrophic areas of the hypothalamus, the grafts were cytodifferentiated into various types of anterior pituitary cells with rich vascularization. These cells had the ultrastructural features indicative of hormone secretion. Increases in body and ovarian weights reflected the secretion of somatotrophic and gonadotrophic hormones. The results obtained indicate that implants of 2A8 clonal cells may differentiate into all types of anterior pituitary cells under the influence of hypothalamic hormones or perhaps some unknown factors present in the general systemic circulation of the rat.

    Notes: Summary An investigation regarding the question of whether there exists a macula densa as part of the juxtaglomerular apparatus in the kidney of amphibians has been carried out. With the aid of a histochemical reaction for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, the presence of a macula densa zone as a specialized part of the distal tubule in the toad Bufo bufo was demonstrated. The functional significance of the high glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in the macula densa cells is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Zonulae occludentes are shown by freeze-fracture to be pleomorphic along the garter snake nephron. In the neck and proximal segments the occluding junctions are moderately complex with frequent discontinuities in their junctional fibrils. Junctional depth and complexity are maximal in the distal and collecting segments and discontinuities in fibrils are absent. Comparison of these results with similar observations on other tissues indicates that the zonulae occludentes in the neck and proximal segments are “intermediate” to “leaky” and that they may be “very tight” in the distal and collecting segments. These findings suggest that in the garter snake nephron transepithelial flow of fluid may occur primarily by passive diffusion through the zonulae occludentes in the neck and proximal segments and by cell-mediated osmotic flow in the distal and collecting segments. Gap junctions occur only in the proximal tubule and are probably involved in low resistance, intercellular movement of ions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ratten erhielten 4 Wochen lang isotone Kochsalzlösung als Trinkflüssigkeit. Glomerulumfiltrat und Passagezeit von Lissamin-Grün im proximalen Tubulus blieben unverändert. Die spezifische Resorptionskapazität des Tubulusepithels — gemessen mit der „gespaltenen-Tropfen-Methode“ — nahm signifikant ab. Daraus ergab sich eine Verminderung der fraktionellen Natrium-und Wasserresorption im proximalen Tubulus von 51 auf 38% der gefilterten Menge. Die Na+-Ausscheidung stieg von 0,06 (Kontrollen) auf 1,25% der gefilterten Menge. Diese Veränderungen waren rückgängig zu machen durch Injektion von d-Aldosteron. Durch Bestimmung des TF/P-Inulin-Quotienten am Ende des proximalen Konvolutes wurden die Ergebnisse bestätigt. Es wird angenommen, daß die Resorptionshemmung im proximalen Tubulus bei chronischer Kochsalzbelastung durch verminderte Sekretion von Mineralocorticoiden bedingt und letzten Endes Ursache der vermehrten Na+-Ausscheidung ist. Ein Teil der proximalen Resorptionshemmung wird anscheinend in weiter distal gelegenen Nephron-Abschnitten kompensiert.
    Notes: Summary Rats were kept on isotonic saline as drinking fluid for a period of 4 weeks. Glomerular filtration rate and proximal transit time of Lissamine green remained unchanged. The intrinsic reabsorptive capacity of the proximal tubular epithelium—measured by the “shrinking-droplet-method”—decreased significantly. As a result, fractional proximal reabsorption of sodium and water decreased from 51 to 38 per cent of the filtered load. Sodium excretion rose from 0.06 (controls) to 1,25 per cent of the filtered load. These changes were reversible by injection of d-aldosterone. The results were confirmed by measuring the TF/P ratio of inulin at the end of the proximal convolution. The results indicate that in rats chronically loaded with salt, the inhibition of fractional proximal reabsorption is due to a decreased secretion of mineralocorticoids, and is the cause of the higher sodium excretion. Apparently, the decreased proximal reabsorption is partly compensated in more distal parts of the nephron.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Um den Einfluß des Plasmaharnstoffspiegels auf die Konzentrierfähigkeit der Niere zu untersuchen, wird der Blutkreislauf von Ratten an eine Dialysiervorrichtung angeschlossen und der Harnstoffspiegel des Blutes für 3 Std durch Dialyse gegen eine harnstoffreie Spüllösung gesenkt. Gleichzeitig wird der Harnfluß der Tiere durch eine Regelanordnung konstant gehalten. Die Regelung wird dadurch erreicht, daß dem Blutkreislauf bei zu hohem Harnfluß automatisch Flüssigkeit entzogen und bei zu niedrigem Harnfluß Flüssigkeit zugeführt wird. Es wird gefunden, daß die Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Harn linear mit dem Plasmaharnstoffspiegel abfallen bzw. ansteigen. Die Summe der Elektrolytkonzentrationen fällt dagegen mit dem Plasmaharnstoffspiegel nur wenig ab. Falls ein völliger Harnstoffentzug möglich wäre, würde auch dann noch eine Konzentrierung der Elektrolyte auf mehr als doppelt isoton möglich sein. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung lassen sich am einfachsten mit der Annahme interpretieren, daß in der Niere der Ratte zwei unterschiedlich arbeitende Konzentrierungsmechanismen wirksam sind, von denen der eine im wesentlichen Elektrolyte, der andere im wesentlichen Harnstoff konzentriert. Der Konzentrierungsmechanismus für Elektrolyte könnte im äußeren Mark, der für Harnstoff im inneren Mark lokalisiert sein.
    Notes: Summary To investigate the influence of plasma urea levels on the concentrating power of the kidney, the blood circulation of rats was connected to a dialyser; with dialysis against a urea-free cleaning solution, the urea level of the blood was lowered for three hours. During this, the urine flow of the animals was kept constant by a regulating arrangement. This control was achieved by removing fluid from the blood circulation in the case of too high urine flow and by putting in fluid in the case of too low urine flow. It was found that the concentration of urea in the urine had a direct linear relationship with the plasma urea level. The total electrolyte concentration fell only slightly compared to the plasma urea level falls. If the urea could have been completely removed, high concentrating of the electrolyte, to more than double isotonic, would still have been possible. The simplest way to interpret the results of this research is by the hypothesis that two different concentrating mechanisms are at work in the rat kidney, the one essentially concentrating electrolytes, and the other principally urea. The concentrating mechanism for electrolytes could be localised in the outer medulla, and for urea in the inner medulla.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Um die gegenseitige Beeinflussung von Harnstoff und NaCl bei der Bildung eines konzentrierten Harns zu untersuchen, werden Ratten 2 Tage lang NaCl-Lösungen mit wechselndem Harnstoffgehalt infundiert. Sodann werden der Harn sowie das Gewebe der Nierenrinde, des äußeren Marks und des inneren Marks auf ihren Gehalt an Kalium, Natrium und Harnstoff analysiert. Es wird gefunden, daß die Konzentrierfähigkeit der Rattenniere unter diesen Versuchsbedingungen für NaCl bei gleichzeitiger Zufuhr von Harnstoff geringer wird. In der Niere steigen NaCl und Harnstoffkonzentrationen unter allen Infusionsbedingungen von der Nierenrinde zur Nierenpapille hin an. Bei Infusion reiner NaCl-Lösungen entsprechen die NaCl- und Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Harn denen in der Papille. Bei Infusion von harnstoffhaltigen NaCl-Lösungen sind im Harn die NaCl-Konzentrationen höher und die Harnstoffkonzentrationen niedriger als im Papillengewebe. Diese Ergebnisse schließen aus, daß die hohen Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Nierenmarkgewebe durch einfache Diffusion des Harnstoffes aus den Sammelrohren in das Nierenmarkgewebe zustande kommen. Es wird die Möglichkeit diskutiert, daß die Harnstoffkonzentrierung unter den hier wiedergegebenen Versuchsbedingungen durch Gegenstromdiffusion in dem Vasa recta-System verursacht wird. Der Konzentriereffekt hierfür könnte durch einen Wasserfluß aufgrund osmotischer Kräfte von dem Blutgefäßsystem in die Henleschen Schleifen zustande kommen, wenn der Harn in den Henleschen Schleifen durch Aufnahme von NaCl, das aus den Sammelrohren stammt, hyperton wird.
    Notes: Summary To investigate the mutual interdependence of urea and sodium in producing concentrated urine, solutions of different concentrations of sodium and urea were infused into the stomach of rats. After two days' infusion, the urine and tissues from the different zones of the kidneys were analysed for sodium, potassium and urea content. It was found that the efficiency of the rat kidney in producing urine with high sodium content was diminished if urea was infused together with the sodium chloride. Under all conditions sodium and urea concentrations increased from the cortex to the papilla of the kidneys. When pure sodium chloride solutions were infused, sodium and urea concentrations in the urine were nearly equal to the corresponding concentrations in the papilla. Infusion of solutions containing NaCl and urea caused production of urine with a higher sodium concentration and lower urea concentration than in the papilla. These results show that the high concentration of urea in the medulla of the kidney does not arise by passives diffusion of urea from the collecting ducts into the medullary tissue. The possibility that the concentration of urea in the inner medulla is produced by counter current diffusion of urea in the vasa recta is discussed. The concentration effect necessary for this counter current multiplication could be created by an osmotic flow of water from the vasa recta into loops of Henle, if the urine in the loops becomes hypertonic by taking up sodium chloride from the collecting ducts.

    Notes: Summary Light- and electronmicroscopic evaluation of proximal convolutions of the rat kidney were made following injection with either mineral oil or castor oil. The following observations were made: 1. Injection of mineral oil does not result in a complete blockade of the tubular lumen and leads to morphological lesions of epithelial cells. 2. Injection of the more viscous castor oil, in contrast, leads to a dilatation of the tubular lumen and a compression of the brush border of proximal tubular cells. Thus a better blockade of longitudinal flow is achieved. A toxic effect of castor oil on the tubular epithelium could not be detected. Mechanical lesions, similar to those observed after mineral oil injection, were less frequent. They consisted in a penetration of oil into the cells, perhaps as consequence of the tubular dilatation. 3. In oil-injected proximal tubular segments the following cytologic phenomena were observed: a) a cessation of the normal pinocytosis, which is induced in the presence of tubular fluid, b) simultaneously the “large resorption vacuoles” disappear, indicating that they originate from confluence of pinocytotic vesicles, c) in dilated tubules protein resorption vacuoles are found to have ruptured towards the tubular lumen suggesting a high hydrostatic pressure within the vacuoles.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 4 Wochen nach Klammerung einer Nierenarterie war der Perfusionsdruck der geklammerten Niere normal, während der arterielle Mitteldruck auf 188 mm Hg angestiegen war. Die Ausscheidung von Natrium und Wasser im Harn der geklammerten Niere war normal, im Harn der ungeklammerten Niere erheblich höher als normal. Glomerulumfiltrat (pro g Niere), intratubulärer Druck, Tubulusweite, Passagezeit von Lissamingrün und die fraktionelle Resorption von Natrium und Wasser waren im proximalen Tubulus sowohl in der geklammerten wie in der ungeklammerten Niere normal. In der ungeklammerten Niere war die Passagezeit durch die Henlesche Schleife stark verkürzt und die Resorption von Natrium und Wasser in der Schleife erheblich vermindert. Diese Veränderungen — obwohl zum Teil kompensiert durch vermehrte Resorption im distalen Tubulus und im Sammelrohr — sind verantwortlich für die höhere Wasser- und Natriumausscheidung der ungeklammerten Niere. Die Ursache ist wahrscheinlich eine stärkere Durchblutung des Nierenmarkes. Im Nephron der geklammerten Niere war die fraktionelle Natrium- und Wasserresorption nicht signifikant von normalen Werten verschieden mit der Ausnahme einer niedrigeren Natriumresorption im distalen Tubulus und einer höheren Natriumresorption im Sammelrohr. Der Natrium-Transport im distalen Tubulus ist anscheinend gestört; TF/P−Na+ betrug im Mittel 0,6 bis zum Ende des distalen Tubulus. Die Ergebnisse können die unterschiedliche Harnausscheidung erklären, die beim Hypertoniker mit einseitiger Nierenarterienstenose beobachtet wird (Howard-Test).
    Notes: Summary Four weeks after clamping one renal artery, the perfusion pressure of the clamped kidney was normal whereas the mean arterial pressure had increased to 188 mm Hg. Urinary excretion of sodium and water of the clamped kidney had not changed while that of the untouched kidney increased considerably. Glomerular filtration rate (per g kidney), intratubular pressure, tubular diameter, transit time of Lissamine green and fractional sodium and water reabsorption of the proximal tubule were normal in both the clamped and the untouched kidney. In the untouched kidney, the transit time through Henle's loop was shortened and the sodium and water reabsorption in it was significantly reduced. These changes, although partly compensated by higher reabsorption in the distal tubule and collecting duct, are responsible for the increased sodium and water excretion of the untouched kidney. They are probably due to an increased medullary blood flow. In the clamped kidney, fractional sodium and water reabsorption of the whole nephron did not differ significantly from normal values. However, sodium reabsorption was lower in the distal tubule and higher in the collecting duct. Sodium transport in the distal tubule seemed to be impaired; throughout its length sodium TF/P ratio averaged 0.6. These results may explain the different urinary excretion found in human hypertension following unilateral renal artery stenosis (Howard-Test).

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch artifizielle osmotische Druckdifferenzen von 150 mOsmol/l zwischen Lumen- und Blutseite der Tubulusepithelien von Rana ridibunda wird Flüssigkeit im Richtungssinne der Reabsorption oder — in geringerem Maße — der Sekretion längs des osmotischen Gradienten bewegt. Na+ wird in jedem Fall „trocken” reabsorbiert. Bei mit Furosemid blockiertem aktiven Na+-Transport läuft isoton Flüssigkeit längs des osmotischen Gradienten aus dem Tubuluslumen in das blutseitige Medium. Bei umgekehrt gerichtetem Gradienten wird das Filtrat so verändert, als ob es durch Einstrom reinen Wassers verdünnt würde. Die Tubulusepithelien verhalten sich so, als besäßen sie — im Zustand des blockierten aktiven Na+-Transportes — ein „Rückschlagventil” für Na+. Wenn der osmotische Gradient so gerichtet ist, daß Wasser oder Flüssigkeit aus dem Lumen in das blutseitige Medium läuft, dann kommt es bei umgekehrt gerichtetem Na+-Konzentrationsgradienten nicht zum Einstrom von Na+ in das Tubuluslumen. Die Na+-Harnkonzentration sinkt beträchtlich unter die des Perfusates, was als Ausdruck einer Na+-Reabsorption gegen den Konzentrationsgradienten gedeutet wird. Bei Blockierung des Na+-Transportes durch Furosemid kommt es wiederum zum Einstrom reinen Wassers in die Tubuluslumina. Die Versuche mit durch Furosemid blockiertem Na+-Transportmechanismus sind beweisend, daß die Tubuli für Na+ im Richtungssinne der Sekretion impermeabel sind. Die „Verdünnung” des Tubulusinhaltes durch einen osmotischen Gradienten, der Wasser in die Tubuli hineinlaufen läßt, kommt also nicht durch ein Überwiegen der Reabsorption über die „Sekretion” zustande. Wird statt des leicht penetrierenden Na-Chlorids das schwer penetrierende Natriumcyclohexansulfamat angeboten, dann wird absolut gegenüber den Versuchen mit Na-Chlorid weniger Na+ transportiert. Im übrigen zeigen die Nieren jedoch das gleiche Verhalten wie bei Angebot von Na-Chlorid.
    Notes: Summary Osmotic gradients of 150 mosmol/l between intratubular fluid and blood in the kidney of Rana ridibunda induce a fluid movement down the osmotic gradient which is stronger into the tubule than out of it. In either case Na+ is reabsorbed “dry”. If the active Na+-transport is blocked by Furosemid an osmotically downhill movement of isotonic fluid out of the tubule obtains. Reversal of the osmotic gradient induces a reversal of flow but the inward moving fluid is diluted. The tubular cells seem to inhibit the backwash of Na+. If the osmotic gradient induces an outflow of fluid out of the tubule no influx of Na+ occurs even in the presence of a concentration gradient for Na+ in the opposite direction. The Na+-concentration in the urine falls considerably below that of the perfusion fluid. This finding indicates Na+-reabsorption against a concentration gradient. Upon blocking of the Na+-transport by Furosemid water enters the tubules. The results of the experiments in which the Na+-transport was blocked by Furosemid prove that the tubules are impermeable for Na+ in the direction of secretion. The “dilution” of the tubular fluid as a result of an osmotic gradient which induces an influx of water isnot due to a reabsorption outbalancing “secretion”. If instead of the easily penetrating NaCl the slowly penetrating Na+-cyclohexanesulphamate is used, less Na+ is transported. However, in every other respect the results obtained are similar to those described above.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Vier Wochen nach Klammerung einer Nierenarterie wurde die Funktion des distalen Tubulus untersucht. In der ungeklammerten, unter dem hohen Blutdruck stehenden Niere blieb die Tubulusflüssigkeit bis 90% distaler Tubuluslänge hypoton. Dies wird auf eine erhöhten Flüssigkeitseinstrom aus der Henleschen Schleife zurückgeführt; eine verminderte Wasserpermeabilität des distalen Tubulus konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden. In der geklammerten Niere war mit Ausnahme des frühdistalen Abschnittes die Natriumkonzentration on jeder Stelle des distalen Konvolutes signifikant höher als in der ungeklammerten Niere und in Kontrollnieren. Auch fehlte im distalen Tubulus der geklammerten Niere eine Nettokaliumsekretion. die distale Gleichgewichtskonzentration für Natrium war auf der geklammerten Seite erhöht, auf der ungeklammerten Seite normal. Der isotone Natriumausstrom (Methode des gespaltenen Tropfens) war in der geklammerten Niere vermindert, in der ungeklammerten Niere erhöht. Die frühdistale Harnstoffkonzentration war in der ungeklammerten Niere gegenüber der geklammerten Niere und Nieren von Kontrollratten erniedrigt. Spätdistal war TF/P-Harnstoff in beiden Nieren gleich. Beide Nieren hatten ein normales Glomerulumfiltrat und normale tubuläre Passagezeiten mit Ausnahme einer verkürzten Schleifenzeit in der ungeklammerten Niere. Die Befunde werden dahingehend interpretiert, daß der aktive Natriumtransport im distalen Tubulus der beiden Nieren voneinander verschieden ist, möglicherweise infolge des unterschiedlichen Reningehaltes der beiden Nieren.
    Notes: Summary Four weeks after constricting one renal artery distal tubular function was studied using the micropuncture technique. In the untouched kidney tubular fluid remained hypotonic up to 90% distal tubular length. We believe this to be the result of the high inflow of tubular fluid from Henle's loop. A reduced permeability for water could not be demonstrated. Except for the early part of the distal tubule there was a marked increase in sodium concentration in the clamped kidney as compared to values obtained in the untouched one and in kindneys of control animals. In addition no potassium secretion could be observed in the clamped kidney. The distal steadystate concentration for sodium was increased in the clamped kidney and normal in the untouched one. Reabsorptive half-time, measured by the split droplet technique, was prolonged in the clamped kidney and shortened in the untouched one. Early distal urea concentration was lower in the untouched kidney than in the clamped one and in control kidneys, while at the end of the distal tubule urea concentrations did not differ significantly. Both kidneys had normal glomerular filtration rates and proximal tubular transit times, whereas a shortened transit time through Henle's loop of the untouched kidney was found. The results indicate that active sodium transport in the distal tubule of the clamped kidney differs from that of the untouched one, possibly due to the different renin concentration in both kidneys.

    Notes: Summary At different times after injection into the renal artery of131I-albumin, the distribution of the tracer in kidneys of the rabbit and the dog was illustrated by a series of autoradiograms. In order to determine the mean circulation time for albumin in the kidney, the radioactivity over the kidney was simultaneously registered by external monitoring. A short mean circulation time was measured for albumin (plasma) passing cortex, and a longer one for that fraction of the albumin that passed through medulla, papillae, and capsule. The investigation rendered probable that the mean circulation time for blood through the kidney determined by the external technique applies to blood passing cortex. The circulation times for blood through medulla, papillae, and capsule are not included in the calculation of the mean circulation time.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mit Stop flow-Versuchen an Hunden konnten wir nach Infusion von 1,2-3H-18-Aldosteronglucuronid im Gegensatz zur Infusion von freiem 1,2-3H-Aldosteron keine proximale Sekretion von 1,2-3H-18-Aldosteronglucuronid nachweisen. Daraus kann geschlossen werden, daß in Hundenieren die proximalen Tubuluszellen wohl 18-Aldosteronglucuronid aus Aldosteron bilden und an das Tubuluslumen abgeben, während im Nierenarterienblut vorhandenes 18-Aldosteronglucuronid nur glomerulär filtriert und ausgeschieden wird.
    Notes: Summary In stop flow experiments during infusion of 1,2-3H-18-aldosterone glucuronide there was no proximal tubular secretion of this metabolite in contrary to experiments during infusion of 1,2-3H-aldosterone. The discrepancy must be explained by formation of 1,2-3H-aldosterone glucuronide out of3H-aldosterone in proximal tubular cells, while the 1,2-3H-18-aldosterone glucuronide in the plasma of the renal artery blood is only filtered in the glomerulum.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Auf Grund eines Vergleiches der Verhältnisse von 1,2-3HTetrahydroaldosteronglucuronid zu 1,2-3H-18-Aldosteronglucuronid im Plasma von drei Normalpersonen und zwei nephrektomierten Patienten nach einer Injektion von 1,2-3H-Aldosteron haben wir folgende Schlüsse in Betracht gezogen: 1. Das im Blutplasma vorhandene 1,2-3H-18-Aldosteronglucuronid wird nur glomerular filtriert. 2. Die renale Clearance von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid, die etwa das Fünffache der Inulinclearance beträgt [13, 15], mu\ zu vier Fünfteln auf Bildung von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid durch die proximalen [15] Tubuluszellen zurückgeführt werden. 3. Das Ausma\ der renalen Bildung von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid liegt in einer Grö\enordnung von 80% der Gesamtmenge 18-Aldosteronglucuronid im 24 StdUrin.
    Notes: Summary After an intravenous injection of 1,2-3H-aldosterone the ratios of 1,23H-tetrahydroaldosterone glucuronide to 1,2-3H-aldosterone glucuronide in the blood plasma of three normal and two nephrectomized persons were compared. In the three normal persons the ratios were of the same magnitude as in the two nephrectomized persons. On the basis of glomerular filtration of tetrahydroaldosterone glucuronide, as previously demonstrated by renal clearance studies in man [13, 15] and stop flow experiments in dogs [6], we made the following deductions: 1. 18aldosterone glucuronide in blood plasma is only filtered in the glomerulum. 2. The renal clearance of 18-aldosterone glucuronide, as investigated during aldosterone infusion in man [13, 15], therefore must be explained by glomerular filtration of only one fifth and by formation of four fifth of 18-aldosterone glucuronide by proximal [15] tubular cells. 3. This means that about 80% of 18-aldosterone glucuronide excreted in urine is formed by the kidneys.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei narkotisierten Hunden wurden die arteriovenösen Differenzen der gesamten und der einzelnen freien Fettsäuren (FFS) am Herzen, am elektrisch stimulierten Skeletmuskel (M. gastrocnemius) und an der Niere bei verschieden hoher arterieller FFS-Konzentration untersucht. Die Konzentration der gesamten FFS wurde titrimetrisch, ihre Zusammensetzung wurde gaschromatographisch bestimmt. Bei einer Steigerung der FFS-Konzentration durch Noradrenalininfusionen stiegen die Anteile der öl- und der Palmitinsäure an, und die Anteile der Stearin- und der Linolsäure sanken ab. Bei einer Senkung der FFS-Konzentration durch Glucoseinfusionen nahmen die Anteile der öl- und der Palmitoleinsäure ab, und die Anteile der Palmitin- und der Stearinsäure nahmen zu. Unter Kontrollbedingungen entfielen am Herzen 44% der gesamten FFS-Extraktion auf die öl- und 24% auf die Palmitinsäure, am Skeletmuskel entfielen 43% auf die öl- und 29% auf die Palmitinsäure. Bei einer Steigerung der arteriellen FFS-Konzentration durch Noradrenalin extrahierten Herz- und Skeletmuskel nur noch öl-, Palmitin- und Palmitoleinsäure. Gleichzeitig wurde im Herz Stearin- und Linolsäure und im Skeletmuskel Stearinsäure produziert. In der Niere entfielen unter Kontrollbedingungen je 40% der Gesamt-FFS-Extraktion auf die Palmitin- und die ölsäure. Es wird gefolgert, daß die öl-, die Palmitin- und die Palmitoleinsäure gegenüber den anderen FFS bevorzugt als Energiequellen benutzt werden, weil bei gleicher arterieller Konzentration höhere Extraktionen für diese drei FFS gemessen wurden. Noradrenalin bewirkt, wahrscheinlich durch Aktivierung von Lipase, im Herzen und im arbeitenden Skeletmuskel einen Abbau von gespeicherten oder im Plasma transportierten Triglyceriden.
    Notes: Summary The arteriovenous differences of total and individual free fatty acids (FFA) have been determined in the myocardium, in the electrically stimulated skeletal muscle (gastrocnemius) and in the kidney of closed chest anesthetized dogs. The concentration of total FFA was determined by titration, their composition was determined by gaschromatography. When the arterial concentration of total FFA was increased by norepinephrine infusions the percentage of olic and of palmitic acid increased and the percentage of stearic and linolic acid decreased. When the concentration of total FFA was decreased by glucose infusions the percentage of olic and palmitolic acid decreased and the percentage of palmitic and stearic acid increased. Under control conditions in the myocardium 44% of the total FFA extraction were related to olic and 24% to palmitic acid and in the skeletal muscle 43% were related to olic and 29% to palmitic acid. During norepinephrine induced increases of arterial FFA concentration myocardium and skeletal muscle extracted only olic, palmitic and palmitolic acid. At the same time in the myocardium stearic and linolic acid and in the skeletal muscle stearic acid was produced. In the kidney under control conditions 40% of the total FFA extraction were related to palmitic and 40% to olic acid. Since the extraction of olic, palmitic and palmitolic acid was higher than the extraction of other FFA at comparable arterial concentrations, it is concluded, that these three FFA are used in preference to other FFA as energy sources. Norepinephrine causes, probably via activation of lipase, in the myocardium and in the working skeletal muscle a breakdown of stored or in plasma transported triglycerides.
