Abstract
A functional cDNA clone for a third isoform of the mouse prostaglandin-E-receptor EP3 subtype, derived by alternative RNA splicing, named the EP3 gamma receptor, was obtained in addition to those for the two other isoforms, EP3 alpha and EP3 beta. The three isoforms are only different in the amino acid sequence of the putative cytoplasmic carboxy-terminal tail. When expressed, EP3 gamma shows identical ligand-binding properties to these of the other isoforms. The EP3-selective agonist, M&B 28767, increased the basal cAMP level and inhibited the forskolin-induced increase in the cAMP level in EP3 gamma, while it decreased both the basal and forskolin-elevated cAMP levels in EP3 alpha and EP3 beta. The M&B 28767-stimulated GTPase activity consisted of pertussis-toxin-sensitive and cholera-toxin-sensitive portions in the EP3 gamma-expressing cell membrane, suggested that EP3 gamma is coupled to both guanine nucleotide-binding inhibitory and stimulatory proteins. These results indicate that EP3 gamma is coupled to both stimulation and inhibition of adenylate cyclase, but that EP3 alpha and EP3 beta are exclusively coupled to inhibition of adenylate cyclase. Thus, alternative splicing produces a third isoform with a different carboxy-terminal tail, which differs from the other two isoforms in the specificity of coupling to a signal-transduction pathway.

Abstract
Interleukin 3-dependent BNu-2cl3 mast cells, mucosal type-like mast cells, exhibited a specific high-affinity binding site for [3H]prostaglandin (PG) E2. The binding was completely displaced by M&B 28767, an EP3-selective agonist, but not by EP1- or EP2-selective ligands, indicating that the PGE2 binding site is of the EP3 subtype PGE receptor. Whereas the EP3 subtype is presumed to be coupled to inhibition of adenylate cyclase in various tissues and cells, in BNu-2cl3 cells PGE2 had no ability to inhibit adenylate cyclase activity, while it induced concentration-dependent stimulation of phosphoinositide metabolism and caused an increase in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration in a pertussis toxin-sensitive manner. PGE2 by itself did not evoke histamine release from the cells, but it markedly stimulated histamine release in concert with ionomycin, a Ca2+ ionophore. The PGE2-stimulated release was also completely blocked by pertussis toxin. Thus, the PGE receptor expressed on BNu-2cl3 mast cells is of the EP3 subtype and is linked to phosphoinositide metabolism via a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein, and this activation leads to histamine release.

Abstract
Over the past decade several new routes of neurohypophysial hormone metabolism have been identified. These include nonhepatic splanchnic clearance and renal clearance in addition to filtration that appears to be receptor mediated. The intraluminal degradation of VP in the proximal tubule, and distal tubular secretion, at least in one species, has been identified. The brain has been identified as a site for VP and OT metabolism, and the amniotic sac may be a major site for VP clearance in the guinea pig fetus. There have been generalized findings regarding VP and OT metabolism. First, VP metabolism in the whole body and in the amniotic sac appears to increase with increasing concentrations of hormone; this does not appear to be the case with OT. Also, evidence has been presented that suggests a potential for the formation of biologically active metabolites. There have been several associations of pathophysiological states with altered VP or OT metabolism, sometimes with plasma levels remaining unchanged. Lastly, caution is emphasized when measuring these hormones by RIA, and differences in specificities of antisera toward hormone metabolites must be considered.

Abstract
The DI +/+ Severe hereditary nephrogenic diabetes insipidus mouse is resistant to the antidiuretic action of vasopressin (VP) because of failure to accumulate cAMP and subsequent inability to form intramembranous particles on the apical (luminal) surface of kidney cells that normally respond to VP. The defect is primarily, if not exclusively, due to excessive activity of specific cAMP-phosphodiesterases. The abnormality can be overcome in vitro and in vivo by the phosphodiesterase inhibitor, rolipram. Most cases of hereditary NDI in man have sex-linked recessive inheritance, which appears to be due to an abnormality of the V2 receptor. The chromosomal locus of the defect is Xq28. Sporadic cases of congenital NDI have been described in females who appear to have a defect beyond the V2 receptor and the guanine nucleotide-binding stimulatory protein. There is no information on the biochemical defect in very rare cases with other types of inheritance patterns. No abnormalities of V1a and V1b receptor function have been found in patients with NDI. Mice and patients with NDI have evidence of increased AVP synthesis. AVP release in relation to plasma osmolality is increased in patients during infusion of hypertonic saline. This is the opposite of what has been described in patients with primary polydipsia (dipsogenic diabetes insipidus) who are chronically overhydrated. Together, these studies indicate that chronic dehydration and overhydration can cause up- and downregulation of the osmotic release of AVP.

Abstract
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) induced concentration-dependent (10(-9) to 10(-6) M) stimulation of inositol phosphate production and a biphasic increment of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in skeletal myogenic cells in culture. These effects were almost completely abolished when the cells were pretreated with the AVP antagonist [deamino-Pen1,Val4,D-Arg8]-vasopressin before stimulation with AVP, thus confirming a V1 receptor-mediated effect. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production was maximally stimulated within 2-3 s of treatment with AVP, immediately followed by release of Ca2+ from intracellular deposits. Both effects were inhibited by treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA). Such effect of TPA was reversed by the protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine. Vasopressin also regulated the intracellular pH of responsive cells with mechanisms involving both Na+ and anion transport across the plasma membrane. However, unlike in other cell types, AVP stimulated the Na(+)-H+ antiport only simultaneously with a dramatic cell acidification or after treatment with TPA. Response to AVP was observed in L6 and L5 and, to a lesser extent, in chick embryo myogenic cells, regardless of the stage of differentiation (myoblast or myotube). Comparison of different subclones of the L6 cell line demonstrated that the responsiveness to AVP correlated positively with their myogenic potential.

Abstract
The functional interaction of prostaglandin E (PGE) receptor EP3 subtype with GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) was characterized in the membranes prepared from mouse EP3 receptor cDNA-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells. PGE2 inhibited forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in CHO cells expressing EP3 receptor and this inhibition was abolished by pertussis toxin (PT) treatment. The PGE2 binding to the membranes was increased by GTP gamma S, and PT treatment also increased the binding activity to the same level as that increased by GTP gamma S, but the sensitivity of GTP gamma S was lost. Reconstitution with PT-sensitive G proteins into the ADP-ribosylated membranes reduced the PGE2 binding activity with the following preference: Gi1 = Gi2 > Gi3 > GO, but GTP gamma S completely blocked the reduction by G proteins. The G-protein-induced reduction of the binding was due to the increase in Kd without the change of Bmax, and due to suppression of association rate. [3H]PGE2-bound EP3 receptor solubilized from the ADP-ribosylated membranes in the presence or absence of GTP gamma S was eluted at the position of M(r) = approx. 60 kDa, similar to the relative molecular mass of EP3 receptor deduced from its amino acid sequence. In contrast, [3H]PGE2-bound receptor solubilized from Gi2-reconstituted membranes was eluted at the position of M(r) = approx. 130 kDa, corresponding to the M(r) of the complex of EP3 receptor and Gi2, but GTP gamma S shifted the position of its elution from M(r) = 130 to 60 kDa. Furthermore, addition of PGE2 stimulated the GDP release from G proteins reconstituted into the ADP-ribosylated membranes, and PGE2 inhibited forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in G-protein-reconstituted membranes with a selectivity order of Gi1 = Gi2 > Gi3 > GO. These results indicate that EP3 receptor can functionally couple to PT-sensitive G proteins and unusually the complex form with G proteins has low affinity for the ligand but the form not associated with G proteins has high affinity.

Abstract
1. The actions of kinins and of acetylcholine upon transepithelial ion transport in a renal-derived cultured epithelium (Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, MDCK) have been investigated. 2. In voltage-clamped epithelial layers mounted in Ussing chambers and with prior stimulation of inward short-circuit current (SCC) by 5 or 10 microM-prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), both bradykinin (1 microM) and acetylcholine (0.1 mM) stimulate an additional, but transient, inward SCC. In the absence of PGE1 minimal effects of both bradykinin and acetylcholine upon SCC are observed. The SCC response to bradykinin and acetylcholine are attenuated with prior stimulation by 10 microM-adrenaline. 3. Measurements of bradykinin and acetylcholine-stimulated inward SCC with cation and anion replacement of the bathing media and the use of the Cl channel blocker 5-nitro-2(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB) together with bumetanide to inhibit Na(+)-K(+)-Cl- 'co-transport', are consistent with the bradykinin- and acetylcholine-stimulated SCC being the result of basal to apical Cl- secretion. 4. Bradykinin (1 microM) is capable of stimulation of inward SCC from both epithelial surfaces, whilst acetylcholine is only effective from the basolateral surface. Kallidin (lys-bradykinin) was similar in effect to bradykinin from both epithelial surfaces whereas bradykinin (1-8) was ineffective, suggesting that B2 bradykinin receptors mediate the effect of bradykinin upon SCC. Dose-response relationships show that the response to kallidin and bradykinin was of higher sensitivity for additions to the apical cell aspects. 5. The data are discussed in relation to a model for epithelial Cl- secretion, and to the mechanism of natriuresis observed with kinins and acetylcholine in vivo.

Abstract
We explored the action of luminal AVP in rabbit CCD perfused in vitro at 37 degrees C. Nanomolar concentrations of luminal AVP induced a sustained hyperpolarization of transepithelial voltage (Vt) in contrast to a transient hyperpolarization caused by basolateral AVP. 10 microM basolateral ouabain abolished the latter but not the former change in Vt. Despite a sustained hyperpolarization (from -20.7 +/- 2.9 to -34.1 +/- 4.7 mV; P less than 0.01), 10 nM luminal AVP only slightly altered net Na+ and K+ fluxes (7.6% stimulation and no significant change, respectively). Instead, luminal AVP appeared to modulate an acetazolamide-sensitive electrogenic ion transport because 200 microM basolateral acetazolamide suppressed the luminal AVP-induced hyperpolarization (percentage of Vt from -50.4 +/- 10.8 to -5.1 +/- 1.4; P less than 0.005). In terms of water transport, 10 nM luminal AVP did not change hydraulic conductivity (Lp, x 10(-7) cm/atm per s) (from 3.9 +/- 0.8 to 5.0 +/- 1.2), but suppressed the increase in Lp induced by 20 pM basolateral AVP (134.9 +/- 19.2 vs. 204.3 +/- 21.1 in control; P less than 0.05). These findings demonstrate distinct luminal action of AVP, suggesting amphilateral regulation of epithelial transport by AVP in the CCD.

Abstract
Prostaglandin (PG) E2 binding protein, a putative PGE2 receptor, was purified 26-fold with 0.4% recovery from canine renal outer medullary membranes solubilized with 12% digitonin with the sequential use of a Superose 12, Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA) Affigel 10, DEAE-5PW and Ampholine column chromatographies. The final preparation retained the binding activity specific for PGE2, but lost most of the sensitivity to guanosine-5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S). An antibody against alpha subunit of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (alpha Gi)1 and alpha Gi2 or that against common sequences of alpha subunit of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (alpha G(common)) reacted at 41 kDa protein in the sample of each step of purification, but failed to do so in the final preparation. An antibody against alpha Gi3 or alpha Go had no effect. In fact, peaks of the binding activity and immunoreactivity for alpha Gi1,2 were chromatographically separated by isoelectric focusing. Moreover, antibodies against alpha G(common) or alpha Gi1,2, but not that against alpha Gi3 and alpha Go, precipitated PGE2 binding activity in the active fractions of WGA-Affigel 10 column chromatography. These results suggest that the PGE2 receptor is an acidic glycoprotein and that Gi1 or Gi2 is physically associated with the PGE2 receptor and dissociates from the receptor protein during purification procedures.

Abstract
One of the strains of the Walker 256 carcinosarcoma induces in the rat a humoral hypercalcaemia of malignancy (HHM) syndrome which is similar to that reported in human patients. We have isolated from this tumour a chromatographic fraction which displays an adenylate cyclase stimulating activity in dog kidney cortical membranes, similar to that of a parathormone (PTH) related protein isolated from various HHM related tumours. In addition, this fraction stimulated initial calcium (Ca) uptake in confluent Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell monolayers in a dose-dependent manner. Maximal stimulation of Ca uptake was associated with an enhanced Ca efflux from MDCK cells preloaded with the cation, and with an increased DNA synthesis in these cells. These activities might be involved in development of increased tubular calcium reabsorption in Walker 256 tumour-bearing rats.

Abstract
To analyze the role of SV40 genome in the phenotypic alterations previously observed in SV40-transformed cell lines, we infected rabbit renal cortical cells with a temperature-sensitive SV40 mutant strain (tsA58) and compared the cell phenotypes at temperatures permissive (33 degrees C) and restrictive (39.5 degrees C) for SV40 genome expression. At both temperatures, the resulting cell line (RC.SVtsA58) expresses cytokeratin and uvomorulin, but epithelial differentiation is more elaborate at 39.5 degrees C as shown by the formation of a well-organized cuboidal monolayer with numerous tight junctions and desmosomes. Functional characteristics are also markedly influenced by the culture temperature: cells grown at 33 degrees C respond only to isoproterenol (ISO, 10(-6) M) by a sevenfold increase in cAMP cell content above basal values; in contrast, when transferred to 39.5 degrees C, they exhibit increased sensitivity to ISO (ISO/basal: 19.1) and a dramatic response to 10(-7) M dDarginine vasopressin (dDAVP/basal: 18.2, apparent Ka: 5 X 10(-9) M) which peaks 48 h after the temperature shift. The latter is associated with membrane expression of V2-type AVP receptors (approximately 50 fmol/10(6) cells) which are undetectable when SV40 genome is activated (33 degrees C). Clonal analysis, additivity studies, and desensitization experiments argue for the presence of a single cell type responsive to both AVP and ISO. The characteristics of the RC. SVtsA58 cell line at 39.5 degrees C (effector-stimulated cAMP profile, lack of expression of brush-border hydrolases and Tamm-Horsfall protein) suggest that it originates from the cortical collecting tubule, and probably from principal cells.

Abstract
The established renal cell line LLC-PK1 was used as a model to investigate the mechanism underlying kidney malfunction observed in cystinosis patients. In this disease lysosomal accumulation of cystine impairs kidney function, and glycosuria is an early clinical manifestation. The linkage between lysosomal accumulation of cystine and impairment of kidney function is still unclear, and no animal model is available. In an attempt to gain a better insight into this relationship, we studied the effects of lysosomal loading with cystine on the survival and functions of normal noncystinotic renal epithelial cells (LLC-PK1), nonrenal fibroblasts (NIH-3T3), and cystinotic fibroblasts (GM2837). Incubation of the cells with cystine dimethylester (CDME) resulted in time- and dose-dependent accumulation of cystine, with 80% of the cystine in the lysosomal fraction. The lysosomal concentration of cystine increased in the three cell lines after 3 hours of incubation and declined significantly after 48 hours in the normal, but not cystinotic, cells. The accumulation of cystine in the lysosomes caused dose- and time-dependent cell mortality, assessed by measuring the activity of the cytosolic enzyme, lactic dehydrogenase, in the medium. Survival of fibroblasts and renal cells was similar in all three cell lines. The concentrating capacity (the ratio fo the intra- and extracellular concentrations) of the nonmetabolized sugar analog, alpha methyl glucoside (AMG), was used to assess the function of the kidney cells. The sugar concentrating capacity of LLC-PK1 cells was reduced after incubation with CDME in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Since there was no change in sugar efflux between the untreated and treated cells, we conclude that an impairment of the uptake of AMG is responsible for the reduction in the sugar-concentrating capacity in LLC-PK1 cells. In the absence of a genetically impaired animal model, LLC-PK1 cells treated with CDME can be used to investigate the cellular mechanisms responsible for the impairment of kidney function in cystinotic patients.

Abstract
Purified cardiac sarcolemmal membrane vesicles were used to determine if specific prostaglandin (PG) receptors are present on the myocyte. Two binding sites for PGE2 were identified in isolated bovine sarcolemmal membranes: a high-affinity site with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.32 nM and a maximum binding (Bmax) of 376 fmol/mg of protein and a lower-affinity site with a Kd of 3.41 nM and a Bmax of 2,112 fmol/mg of protein. In competition experiments, unlabeled PGE1 displaced [3H]PGE2 from its membrane receptor at concentrations similar to those of unlabeled PGE2. Both PGF2 alpha and PGD2 displaced [3H]PGE2 from the membrane, but only at high concentrations (greater than 10(-6) M and greater than 10(-5)M, respectively). Digestion of sarcolemmal membrane with trypsin resulted in a threefold decrease in specific [3H]PGE2 binding. Phosphorylation of the membrane with protein kinase A also decreased specific [3H]PGE2 binding. At concentrations of PGE2 that occupy the high-affinity site, sarcolemmal adenylate cyclase activity was inhibited in the presence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate [Gpp(NH)p]. We conclude that the isolated cardiac sarcolemmal membrane contains a high-affinity binding site for PGE2 that is functionally coupled to adenylate cyclase. The binding site is stereospecific and probably recognizes the 9-keto,11-hydroxyl portion of the ring structure of these prostaglandins.

Abstract
PGE2 synthesis was measured along the nephron of Brattleboro (DI) rats, lacking ADH, and control LE rats, using an enzyme immunoassay. Experiments were performed in vitro, in the absence of exogenous arachidonic acid, using microdissected tubular segments. The effect of a chronic treatment of dDAVP was tested on three ADH sensitive tubular segments, medullary thick ascending limb (MTAL), medullary collecting tubule (OMCD) and papillary collecting duct (IMCD). No difference in PGE2 synthesis was present between LE and DI in glomerulus and tubular segments up to OMCD. In both strains, values were low in the proximal tubule and the loop of Henle, and gradually increased along the collecting tubule. In IMCD, PGE2 synthesis was much higher in DI (12.8 +/- 2.0 pg per 30 min per mm tubular length) than in LE (3.8 +/- 0.5, LE vs. DI p less than 0.001). In MTAL and OMCD, dDAVP treatment did not affect PGE2 synthesis. In IMCD, dDAVP reduced PGE2 synthesis to values (5.3 +/- 0.8 pg per 30 min per mm tubular length), which were not significantly different from those of LE. Neither oxytocin, which has been shown to be elevated in DI rats, nor furosemide, that reduced papillary osmolarity to values comparable to those of DI rats, were able to increase PGE2 synthesis in IMCD of LE rats. The mechanism of the increase in PGE2 synthesis in IMCD of DI rats, and of the inhibitory effect of dDAVP is yet unknown; it may participate to compensate for the lack of ADH in the Brattleboro rat.

Abstract
We have examined the regulation by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) of hormone-induced adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) accumulation in cells isolated by immunodissection from both the medullary and cortical thick ascending limb of Henle's loop of rabbit kidney. At concentrations greater than 10(-8) M, PGE2, but not sulprostone (16-phenoxy-17,18,19,20-tetranor-PGE2 methylsulfonilamide), caused cAMP accumulation in both cortical and medullary thick limb cells. However, at concentrations of less than or equal to 10(-8) M, both PGE2 and sulprostone inhibited arginine vasopressin (AVP)-, calcitonin-, and glucagon-induced cAMP accumulation in medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) cells. In cortical thick limb (cTAL) cells, sulprostone also inhibited AVP-, calcitonin-, and parathyroid hormone (PTH)-induced cAMP accumulation. The inhibitory effects of PGE2 and of sulprostone were blocked by pretreatment of mTAL and cTAL cells with pertussis toxin. Membranes prepared from mTAL cells exhibited a [3H]PGE2 binding activity that was stimulated on addition of the stable guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) analogue, 5'-guanosine gamma-thiotriphosphate (GTP gamma S); moreover, sulprostone inhibited [3H]PGE2 binding. Our results suggest that PGE2 can function via a prostaglandin E receptor linked to a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, Gi, to attenuate hormone-induced cAMP formation in both mTAL and cTAL cells of rabbit kidney.

Abstract
The growth and differentiation of opossum kidney cells on the recently-developed microscopically transparent microporous membrane are described. Confluent monolayers grown on membranes had twice the cell density of monolayers grown on plastic. Electron microscopy revealed junctional complexes in membrane-grown cells as well as in those cells grown on plastic. Cells grown on membranes, however, displayed more numerous and longer microvilli in addition to demonstrating a greater growth activity. There was an approximate two-fold increase in sodium-dependent phosphate transport per unit area by cells grown on membranes compared to the transport by cells grown on plastic. Phosphate transport by monolayers grown on both membranes and plastic was inhibited by parathyroid hormone (PTH).

Abstract
PGE2 formed by renal collecting tubules is an important factor in regulating NaCl and water reabsorption in the collecting tubule and medullary thick ascending limb. PGE2 appears to act, depending on its ambient concentration, via several different receptors present in these renal epithelia to modulate cAMP turnover in both positive and negative directions. These putative PGE receptors form a family of receptors, all coupled to G proteins, and this family of PGE receptors is homologous to the adrenergic receptor family.

Abstract
We examined the influence of various Millipore filter pretreatments on the amounts of androgen-binding protein (ABP) and transferrin (Trf) found in the outer (OC) and inner (IC) compartment of two-compartment Sertoli cell (Sc) cultures. When Sc were cultured on untreated Millipore filters, less than 10% of ABP was found in OC during 3 initial culture days compared to similar cultures on pretreated filters. Most of the glycoprotein was shown to be bound by the filter. Pretreatment of Millipore filters with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) or 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS) maximally saturated the nonspecific protein-binding sites resulting in OC:IC ratio of ABP similar to that found in cultures on polycarbonate membranes, which exhibit very low protein-binding capacity. In contrast to ABP, about 40% of Trf was bound by the Millipore filter on Day 1, with only trace amounts bound thereafter. These differences were due to much higher secretion rate of Trf than ABP, resulting in a relatively smaller fraction of Trf bound to the filter. Again, the nonspecific binding of Trf was greatly reduced by filter pretreatment with 5% BSA or 2% FBS. It is concluded that complete saturation of protein-binding sites of cellulose ester supports is necessary for reliable evaluation of vectorial protein secretion by Sc and other polarized epithelial cells maintained in this type of culture. The implications of partial saturation of protein-binding sites of culture support in interpreting experimental results are discussed.

Abstract
It is still uncertain whether cell cultures attain the functional maturity of corresponding in vivo cells. The degree of differentiation of cultured collecting-duct (CD) epithelium cells was therefore examined using immunohistochemical procedures. Three monoclonal antibodies (mabs CD1, CD2, and CD3) were raised against proteins (PCD) isolated from the renal papilla. At Western-blot analysis, each of these antibodies reacted with a specific protein that was distinguishable according to its molecular weight [PCD1, 190 kilodaltons (kDa); PCD2, 210 kDa; PCD3, 50 kDa]. Using immunofluorescence, these proteins were found to be localized exclusively in the renal CD system. Other renal structures, such as the proximal or distal tubular portions, the glomeruli and the interstitial network, were not reactive. The mabs, CD2 and CD3, labeled both the cortical and medullary CD in a uniform way, whereas mab CD1 produced heterogeneous immunolabeling along the length of the cortical, medullary, and papillary CD. As revealed by immunohistochemistry, the mabs revealed differences with respect to the expression of the specific renal proteins in cultured CD cells. In polar-differentiated epithelium cultured for 5 days on a specific renal support, mab CD1 was unreactive, whereas mabs CD2 and CD3 were positive. This demonstrated the biochemical immaturity of this cultured epithelium with respect to CD1 reactivity. In morphologically dedifferentiated CD monolayer cells grown on the bottom of a culture dish, only a weak reaction for mab CD3 was observed. The loss of epithelial polarization in CD monolayer cells obviously coincides with the absence of the renal proteins PCD1 and PCD2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The cellular mechanism of the action of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is thought to involve activation of guanylate cyclase. Increasing evidence shows a direct tubular effect of ANF. Part of the ANF-induced diuresis has been suggested to be due to inhibition of the action of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the cortical collecting tubule. In this study we investigated the effect of ANF on cyclic nucleotide production in primary cultures of cortical collecting tubule cells immunodissected with a monoclonal antibody. ANF caused a dose-dependent stimulation in cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) production; the half-maximal stimulation was observed at approximately 1 nM of ANF. ANF (0.01-100 nM) had no effect on cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) accumulation in cortical collecting tubule cultures. AVP caused a dose-dependent increase in cAMP production, and this effect was not altered by the simultaneous addition of ANF (100 nM). Similarly, ANF-induced cGMP stimulation was not influenced by AVP (10 nM). We conclude that 1) ANF has a direct stimulatory action on cGMP production by cultured cortical collecting tubule cells and 2) any interaction between ANF and AVP is likely to occur at steps distal to cyclic nucleotide formation.

Abstract
The cellular localisation of kininogen and its relationships with tissue kallikrein containing cells was studied in the human kidney by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method using antisera to human LMW kininogen and to human tissue kallikrein. Immunoreactive kininogen was localised in the principal cells of collecting ducts. Immunoreactive tissue kallikrein was detected in the connecting tubule cells, segment of the nephron preceding the cortical collecting ducts. The co-existence of tissue kallikrein and kininogen in the same transitional tubule, but in different cells, was established by the use of serial sections and double immunostaining. This anatomical relationship is in accordance with known studies that describe intermingling of principal cells and connecting tubule cells where connecting tubules merge into cortical collecting ducts in the human nephron. The close relationship between cells that contain tissue kallikrein and its substrate, kininogen, suggests that kinins could be generated in the lumen of distal cortical segments of the human nephron.

Abstract
By stripping off the capsula fibrosa of neonatal rabbit kidneys a consistently thin tissue layer consisting of collecting duct anlagen, S-shaped bodies and nephrogenic blastema is obtained. This thin layer seems to be an excellent object for investigation of epithelium formation and nephron differentiation. Three different tissue culture protocols are described: 1. A polarly differentiated collecting duct epithelium with 'tight' characteristics consisting only of principal cells, grown on specific renal support 2. A morphologically dedifferentiated collecting duct principal cell monolayer grown on the unspecific bottom of a plastic culture dish 3. An embryonic tissue layer with numerous S-shaped bodies which might be a suitable model for investigation of the development of maturing nephron structures in serum-free culture medium.

Abstract
Adenosine analogs were used to investigate the cellular mechanisms by which adenosine may alter renal tubular function. Cultured rabbit cortical collecting tubule (RCCT) cells, isolated by immunodissection, were treated with 5'-N-ethylcarboxamideadenosine (NECA), N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA), and R-N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA). All three analogs produced both dose-dependent inhibition and stimulation of RCCT cell cyclic AMP (cAMP) production. Stimulation of cAMP accumulation occurred at analog concentrations of 0.1 microM to 100 microM with the rank order of potency NECA greater than PIA greater than CHA. Inhibition occurred at concentrations of 1 nM to 1 microM with the rank order of potency CHA greater than PIA greater than NECA. These effects on cAMP production were inhibited by 1,3-diethyl-8-phenylxanthine and isobutylmethylxanthine. CHA (50 nM) blunted AVP- and isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP accumulation. This modulation of hormone-induced cAMP production was abolished by pretreatment of RCCT cells with pertussis toxin. Prostaglandin E2 production was unaffected by 0.1 mM CHA. These findings indicate the presence of both inhibitory (A1) and stimulatory (A2) receptors for adenosine in RCCT cells. Moreover, occupancy of the A1 receptor causes inhibition of both basal and hormone-stimulated cAMP formation through an action on the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory component, Ni, of the adenylate cyclase system.

Abstract
In the present study, we were particularly interested in distinguishing specific patterns of structural and functional proteins in the collecting duct system of neonatal and adult kidneys and in cultured renal collecting duct epithelia in order to ascertain the degree of differentiation in the cultures. We studied the distribution of specific renal collecting duct cell markers using morphological, immunohistochemical and biochemical procedures. Cultured renal collecting duct epithelium undergoes maturation in vitro. Examples of morphological differentiation include the appearance of cilia and microvilli at the apical cell pole, and a basement membrane at the basal aspect of the epithelium. Tight junctions with five to seven strands separate the wide intercellular spaces from the apical cell surface. Physiological maturation from a 'leaky' to a 'tight' epithelium is evident from the acquisition of the alpha-subunit of Na/K-ATPase and the development of a high transepithelial potential difference and resistance. Biochemical differentiation is revealed by the expression of specific proteins. The simple-epithelium cytokeratins, PKK1 and PKK2, which are typical intracellular-matrix proteins of mature collecting duct epithelium, maintain the same distribution in cell culture as in neonatal and adult kidneys. An indicator of maturation in vitro is the expression of the collecting duct-specific proteins, PCD2 and PCD3. Newly developed monoclonal antibodies against these antigens reacted similarly with cultured cells and cells of the mature collecting duct system, but they did not label the embryonic ampullae in the cortex of neonatal rabbit kidneys. In contrast, a third collecting duct-specific protein, PCD1, is not expressed by the cultured cells, which indicates the retention of an embryonic characteristic in vitro. Embryonic collecting duct ampullae of the neonatal kidney in situ contain laminin during their development. Laminin is, however, absent in cultured collecting duct epithelium. Biochemical stimulation of the adenylate cyclase system by arginine vasopressin resulted in a twofold stimulation of the enzyme activity. This degree of stimulation is similar to that found in maturing kidneys of neonatal rabbits and indicates another embryonic feature of the cultures.

Abstract
The transferrin-mediated transcellular transport of 59Fe across confluent epithelial sheets of Sertoli cells grown on Millipore filters was investigated. These filters had been impregnated with reconstituted basement membrane and suspended in bicameral (two houses) culture chambers. After five days of culture, Sertoli cells from 10-day-old rats formed basally-located tight junctional complexes. Concomitantly, there was an increase in electrical resistance and the epithelial sheet became impermeable to lanthanum nitrate. The rate of passage of [3H]inulin across the epithelial sheet was considerably less than passage across a filter alone, a filter impregnated with reconstituted basement membrane or an epithelial sheet pretreated with 2 mM EGTA. We conclude from these permeability studies that the tight junctional complexes between Sertoli cells formed an effective transepithelial permeability barrier. Following addition of human serum [59Fe]transferrin to media bathing the basal cytoplasm of the cells, rat testicular [59Fe]transferrin was immunoprecipitated from apical media overlying the Sertoli cells. Cross-reactivity of the rabbit anti-rat transferrin antibody with human serum transferrin was less than 0.001%. Substitution of the primary antibody with normal rabbit serum reduced the amount of immunoprecipitable rat testicular [59Fe]transferrin to 20% of normal levels. Prior fixation of the Sertoli cell epithelial sheet in 2.5% glutaraldehyde, addition of a 100-fold excess of holotransferrin to the basal media, and incubation of the Sertoli cell epithelial sheet at 4 C all reduced the immunoprecipitable rat testicular [59Fe]transferrin in apical media to levels below that for the non-specific binding of the primary antibody. From these studies we conclude that 59Fe is shuttled across Sertoli cells by two different forms of transferrin. Serum transferrin delivers the 59Fe to the basal cytoplasm of the Sertoli cells. The 59Fe dissociates from the serum transferrin, is delivered to testicular transferrin, and is subsequently secreted from the apical surface of the epithelial sheet of Sertoli cells as testicular [59Fe]transferrin.

Abstract
The effects of osmolality on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) biosynthetic capacity and the interaction between endogenous PGE2 synthesis and vasopressin (AVP)-dependent cyclic AMP generation were examined in papillary collecting ducts (PCD) microdissected from collagenase-digested rat kidneys. Increasing medium osmolality with NaCl:urea (1:2 molar ratio) progressively increased PGE2 synthesis in PCD up to 1,500 mOsm. Addition of NaCl:urea or NaCl alone were equally effective in stimulating PGE2 biosynthetic capacity in PCD. In contrast, addition of urea alone had a much smaller stimulatory effect on PGE2 synthesis. Inhibition of endogenous PGE2 synthesis with naproxen (10(-5)M) suppressed AVP-dependent cAMP formation in PCD when incubated in 300 mOsm medium but had no effect when incubated in 1,500 mOsm medium. Addition of 2.5 X 10(-5) M PGE2 also suppressed AVP-dependent cAMP formation in PCD only when incubated in 300 mOsm medium. The present study suggests that the PCD is a site of active PGE2 synthesis that is modulated by osmolality. Our results do not support the concept that endogenous PGE2 antagonizes vasopressin action via inhibition of AVP-dependent cAMP formation.

Prostaglandins are substances that exert their effects at the site of their production. Therefore, the synthesis and effects of prostaglandins have to be considered separately for each nephron segment. In the cortex, major sites of prostaglandin synthesis include arteries and arterioles as well as the glomerulus. At these sites, prostaglandins are important in maintaining blood flow and glomerular filtration, especially during conditions of enhanced vasoconstrictor activity. Vasoconstrictors such as angiotensin II, norepinephrine, and vasopressin increase production of the vasodilator prostaglandins, thereby preventing an overshoot of their action. The role of arteriolar-glomerular prostaglandins in maintaining blood flow and filtration may be even more prominent during renal diseases. The proximal tubule and the loop of Henle show little ability to produce prostaglandins, but may generate considerable amounts of epoxygenase products of arachidonic acid. These epoxygenase products may play a prostaglandin-independent role in water and electrolyte transport in the thick ascending loop of Henle and the collecting tubule. Both the cortical and the medullary collecting tubules produce large amounts of prostaglandins, predominantly prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). In these segments, synthesis of PGE2 is stimulated by bradykinin and to a somewhat more variable degree by vasopressin. The PGE2 generated antagonizes the hydroosomotic effect of vasopressin both in vivo and in vitro, and may influence electrolyte excretion. Thus, the overall role of PGE2--and possibly of epoxygenase products of arachidonic acid--in tubular functions seems to be one of local modulation of water and electrolyte transport. Finally, interstitial cells are a major site of medullary prostaglandin production. Prostaglandins generated by the interstitial cells may play a role in maintaining blood flow to this poorly oxygenated and hypertonic region of the kidney.

Abstract
This study investigates the transepithelial electrophysiological properties of two mouse kidney medullary thick ascending limb cell lines developed in our laboratory. By using a modified Ussing chamber, the transepithelial voltage, transepithelial resistance, and short-circuit current of monolayer cultures were determined. Normal transport functions of the medullary thick ascending limb were not expressed in the cell lines. Instead, they exhibited electrogenic sodium absorption, which could be inhibited by the sodium channel blocker amiloride. Transplantation of the cell line M-mTAL-1C into allogeneic mice in diffusion chambers elicited reexpression of the medullary thick ascending limb transport phenotype, including development of a characteristic basal negative transepithelial voltage sensitive to the loop diuretic furosemide and to chloride removal. These results indicate that retention of renal tubule-specific transport properties is possible in long-term cell culture. However, their expression requires a special milieu not provided by current culture systems.

Abstract
The effective use of cultured cells as model systems for investigating the differentiation and regulation of transport processes in renal tubular epithelial cells depends on the availability of functional long-term cell lines derived from specific nephron segments. Conventional culture procedures that treat cells as proliferating microorganisms possess several inherent limitations that could contribute to phenotypic instability and limited proliferative capacity in vitro. In this study, culture techniques were adopted that avoid exposure of cells to proteolytic enzymes, maintain intercellular contacts, and allow cells to remain continually adherent to a collagen gel substratum. This methodology resulted in the development of a continuous epithelial cell line from identified, microdissected segments of the mouse kidney medullary thick ascending limb.

Abstract
We explored the effects of alterations in extracellular and intracellular calcium concentration on arginine vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated cAMP formation in cultured rat inner medullary collecting tubule cells. cAMP formation remains constant at extracellular calcium concentrations between 0.5 and 4.0 mM, which did not change intracellular calcium. Maneuvers that alter intracellular calcium concentration are associated with marked changes in cAMP generation. EGTA decreases intracellular calcium and enhances AVP-stimulated cAMP formation, while increasing cellular calcium with 2 microM A23187 decreases AVP-stimulated cAMP formation in the presence, but not in the absence, of extracellular calcium. The changes in cAMP formation observed when intracellular calcium is altered are associated with reciprocal changes in prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis. Despite greater than 95% inhibition of PGE2 synthesis with 5 microM meclofenamic acid, the changes in cAMP formation accompanying alterations in intracellular calcium concentration are still evident. These studies suggest that intracellular calcium critically influences AVP-stimulated cAMP formation. It does so by a mechanism independent of PG that is probably mediated by a direct effect of the cation on the adenylate cyclase complex.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to establish whether the nephron segments recognized as PGE2 target sites in the rabbit, i.e. the proximal tubule, the thick ascending limb and the collecting tubule, are also sites of PGE2 production. We therefore developed a microimmunoassay sensitive enough to allow the measurement of PGE2 on microdissected tubular segments about 1 mm in length. Under the conditions used (30 min incubation at 20 degrees C), a basal rate of PGE2 production was measured in the cortical (CCT) and medullary portions of the collecting tubule, as could be expected. In the presence of 10(-4) M sodium arachidonate, it was shown that: (1) The thin descending limb (TDL) is also an active site of PGE2 formation. When expressed per mm tubule length the amounts formed were lower in TDL than in CCT (14.1 +/- 2.7 SE pg/mm, n = 5, vs. 93.5 +/- 10.7, n = 8). They were quite comparable, however, when expressed per microgram total proteins (0.70 ng in TDL vs 0.6 in CCT). (2) A slight PGE2 production was noted in the connecting tubule but it was likely due to contamination by adjacent CCT cells. (3) In the other nephron segments, only negligible amounts of PGE2 were formed, which are probably of no physiological significance.

Abstract
There are several important mechanisms by which renal prostaglandins modulate renal salt and water excretion. The role of endogenous renal prostaglandins in facilitating urinary sodium excretion and the individual nephron segments that are affected by renal prostaglandins are reviewed. The role of the administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents on the kidney's ability to excrete salt and water both physiologically and clinically is summarized. The potential role for endogenous prostaglandins to antagonize the effect of antidiuretic hormone and to alter renal water excretion is also described. The clinical consequences of taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in terms of hyperkalemia, sodium retention with associated edema, and possible hyponatremia are all discussed. Although these clinical consequences are quite uncommon statistically, there are certain subsets of patients for whom additional concern is important.
