Distal nephron function of the rat during lithium chloride infusion.
Distal nephron function of the rat during lithium chloride infusion. Chronic lithium (Li) administration in the rat leads to reduced renal concentration (TCH20) without alterations in renal dilution (CH), To examine the acute effects of lithium on TH2O and C1120, rats were infused with a solution composed of 1% sodium chloride and 1% lithium chloride or a 0.225% lithium chloride solution at rat...
متن کاملChronic lithium treatment inhibits amiloride-sensitive sodium transport in the rat distal nephron.
Chronic treatment of rats with lithium leads to Na+ loss and a reduced antinatriuretic response to aldosterone, suggesting that lithium reduces conductive Na+ transport in the distal nephron. This was investigated in the present study by measuring the renal response to aldosterone infusion followed by amiloride in chronically instrumented conscious rats given lithium for 3 to 4 weeks to achieve...
متن کاملThe Effects of Lithium Chloride on Survival and Function of in Vitro Cultured Human Granulosa Cells
Purpose: To investigate the effect of lithium chloride (LiCl) on survival and functional activity of in vitro cultured human granulosa cells (GCs). Materials and Methods: GCs were isolated from follicular fluid of women undergoing IVF/ICSI. After RBCs removal, GCs were plated in a medium containing varying concentrations of LiCl including 1, 2 and 5mM for two weeks period. A culture without Li...
متن کاملActivation of kininogen expression during distal nephron differentiation.
Previous studies have shown that the epithelial precursors of the connecting tubule and collecting duct express tissue kallikrein and bradykinin B2 receptors, respectively, suggesting the presence of a local kinin-producing/responsive system in the maturing distal nephron. However, evidence for the existence of kininogen in the developing nephron is still lacking. This study examined the spatio...
متن کاملUnique chloride-sensing properties of WNK4 permit the distal nephron to modulate potassium homeostasis
Dietary potassium deficiency activates thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransport along the distal nephron. This may explain, in part, the hypertension and cardiovascular mortality observed in individuals who consume a low-potassium diet. Recent data suggest that plasma potassium affects the distal nephron directly by influencing intracellular chloride, an inhibitor of the with-no-lysine ki...
