Detection of a human autoantibody against intercalated cells of kidney-collecting tubule

Journal of Autoimmunity, 1989
Serum from a 24-year-old woman with a history of habitual abortions was examined for autoantibodies by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. Fluorochrome-labelled antibodies to IgG revealed cytoplasmic staining of single cells in rat kidney collecting and connecting tubules.

Similar chloride channels in the connecting tubule and cortical collecting duct of the mouse kidney

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2006
Using the patch-clamp technique, we investigated Cl−channels on the basolateral membrane of the connecting tubule (CNT) and cortical collecting duct (CCD). We found a ∼10-pS channel in CNT cell-attached patches. Substitution of sodium gluconate for NaCl in the pipette shifted the reversal potential by +25 mV, whereas N-methyl-d-gluconate chloride had ...

BONE AND CALCULI IN THE COLLECTING TUBULES OF THE KIDNEY

Archives of Surgery, 1933
In this paper the occurrence of bone in the human kidney in close association with parenchymatous stones will be described and its bearing on the theory of osteogenesis pointed out. The occurrence of bone in the kidney under experimental conditions has attracted much study since the original demonstration by Sacerdotti and Frattin 1 (1901).

Autoradiographic Localization of Corticosterone Receptors (Type III) to the Collecting Tubule of the Rat Kidney

Endocrinology, 1975
Recently, a class of receptors exhibiting high affinity for corticosterone was described in rat kidney (Feldman, D. et al., Endocrinology 92: 1429, 1973). These receptor sites exhibited negligible affinity for dexamethasone and aldosterone and were designated Type III to distinguish them from sites having high affinity for aldosterone (Type I), and ...

Subcellular distribution of urea transporter in the collecting tubule of shark kidney is dependent on environmental salinity

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological Genetics and Physiology, 2009
AbstractIn the kidney of marine elasmobranchs, urea reabsorption from filtered urine is essential for maintaining high levels of urea in the body. In the kidney of the houndshark, Triakis scyllium, we previously found that a facilitative urea transporter (UT) is localized to a specific nephron segment, the collecting tubule, suggesting that the ...

Morphometric study of the ultrastructure of nephrons and collecting tubules in the kidney of rats with renal and spontaneous hypertension

Virchows Archiv B Cell Pathology, 1978
The convoluted proximal and straight distal tubules and the medullary collecting ducts in kidneys of rats with ischaemic renal hypertension and with genetic spontaneous hypertension were studied by means of electron microscopic morphometry. The volume of mitochondria, the area of their cristae, of the outer surface and of membranes of the intercellular

Endosomes from kidney collecting tubule cells contain the vasopressin-sensitive water channel

Nature, 1988
The mechanism by which vasopressin rapidly and dramatically increases the water permeability of target epithelial cell membranes is thought to involve a cycle of exo- and endocytosis during which vesicles carrying 'water channels' are successively inserted into, and removed from the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells.

Immunohistochemical and Scanning Electron Microscopic Study of Cytokeratin Distribution in the Collecting Tubule of the Rat Kidney

Acta Pathologica Japonica, 1990
Cytokeratin distribution in the collecting tubules (CTs) of the rat kidney was studied by immunohistochemistry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). After preparation of sections from formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded tissue for immunohistochemistry, the remaining tissue was prepared for SEM.

Prominin-2 is a novel marker of distal tubules and collecting ducts of the human and murine kidney

Histochemistry and Cell Biology, 2010
Prominin-1 (CD133) and its paralogue, prominin-2, are pentaspan membrane glycoproteins that are strongly expressed in the kidney where they have been originally cloned from. Previously, we have described the localization of prominin-1 in proximal tubules of the nephron. The spatial distribution of prominin-2, however, has not yet been documented in the

Bicarbonate transport in collecting tubules from outer stripe of outer medulla of rabbit kidneys

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1987
The purpose of this study is to characterize the features of bicarbonate (total CO2) transport in isolated perfused collecting tubules obtained from the outer stripe of the outer medulla (OMCTos) of rabbit kidneys. Under control conditions (25 mM HCO3- in the perfusate and bath), all OMCTos studied absorbed total CO2 at a mean rate of 8.61 +/- 0.44 ...
