| Abstract | To better characterize loop diuretic-sensitive ion fluxes in the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) we examined them in IMCD cells grown as a primary culture on permeable supports. A polarization of the cells with their basolateral side to the support was confirmed morphologically by electron microscopy and functionally by flux studies with ouabain. Within 7 days cells developed a transepithelial resistance of 974±52 Ω per cm2 and a low transepithelial potential difference (–0.7±0.8 mV). Measurements of intracellular ion content by electron probe microanalysis in IMCD depleted of intracellular ions by preincubation in a Na+-K+-Cl–-free medium revealed, compared to the control receiving solvent, significant reductions in intracellular Na+ content (–17.6% within 10 min) and intracellular Cl– content (–43.8% within 30 min) by the addition of bumetanide (10–4 mol/l) to the apical but not basolateral incubation medium. In 22Na+ and 86Rb+ isotope uptake studies, fluxes from the apical side were significantly inhibited at bumetanide concentrations of 100 µmol/l by 0.27±0.10 and 0.21±0.04 nmol/cm2 in 10 min, respectively, whereas basolateral fluxes of 86Rb+ but not 22Na+ were significantly reduced by this substance. Removal of Cl– had a similar but not additional effect. mRNA encoding the apical isoform of the Na+2Cl–K+ cotransporter could be specifically amplified by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction from the inner medulla and highly purified IMCD cells. Northern blot of mRNA isolated from the inner medulla with a riboprobe of the apical isoform revealed a transcript of ~ 4.9 kb. This probe localized under "low-stringency" conditions to the IMCD in in situ hybridization studies. These results suggest the presence of an apically localized isoform of bumetanide-sensitive Na+2Cl–K+ cotransport in at least a subfraction of IMCD cells. This transport may be involved in the ultimate adjustment of urinary electrolyte concentration by this final segment of the tubular system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
