Abstract excerpt
Modulation of the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) activity in the collecting duct (CD) is an important mechanism for normal Na+ homeostasis. ENaC activity is inversely related to dietary Na+ intake, in part due to inhibitory paracrine purinergic regulation. Evidence suggests that H+,K+-ATPase activity in the CD also influences Na+ excretion. We hypothesized that renal H+,K+-ATPases affect Na+ reabsorption by the CD...
