Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), hyperphosphatemia is associated with several adverse outcomes, including bone fragility and progression of kidney and cardiovascular disease. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding phosphate balance in CKD. This review explores its current state, depending on the stage of CKD, dialysis modalities, and the influence of kidney transplantation. RECENT FINDINGS Adequate phosphate control is one of the goals of treatment for CKD-mineral and bone disorder. However, ongoing studies are challenging the benefits of phosphate-lowering treatment. Nevertheless, the current therapy is based on dietary restriction, phosphate binders, and optimal removal by dialysis. In the face of limited adherence, due to the high pill burden, adjuvant options are under investigation. The recent discovery that intestinal absorption of phosphate is mostly paracellular when the intraluminal concentration is adequate might help explain why phosphate is still well absorbed in CKD, despite the lower levels of calcitriol. SUMMARY Future studies could confirm the benefits of phosphate control. Greater understanding of the complex distribution of phosphate among the body compartments will help us define a better therapeutic strategy in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is the most common cause of secondary osteoporosis; nonetheless, it remains an undertreated condition. Transplantation-induced osteoporosis encompasses a broad range of unique pathogenetic features with distinct characteristics dependent on the transplanted organ. Understanding the pathogenesis of bone loss is key to recommending osteoporosis therapy in these patients. This review summarizes recent advances and addresses current issues in these fields.

Abstract
Bidirectional communication between the neuroendocrine stress and immune systems permits classically anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids to exert pro-inflammatory effects in specific cells and tissues. Liver macrophages/Kupffer cells play a crucial role in initiating inflammatory cascades mediated by the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines following tissue injury. However, the effects of repeated acute psychological stress on hepatic inflammatory phenotype and macrophage activation state remains poorly understood. We have utilised a model of repeated acute stress in rodents to observe the changes in hepatic inflammatory phenotype, including anti-inflammatory vitamin D status, in addition to examining markers of classically and alternatively-activated macrophages. Male Wistar rats were subjected to control conditions or 6 h of restraint stress applied for 1 or 3 days (n = 8 per group) after which plasma concentrations of stress hormone, enzymes associated with liver damage, and vitamin D status were examined, in addition to hepatic expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory markers. Stress increased glucocorticoids and active vitamin D levels in addition to expression of glucocorticoid alpha/beta receptor, whilst changes in circulating hepatic enzymes indicated sustained liver damage. A pro-inflammatory response was observed in liver tissues following stress, and inducible nitric oxide synthase being observed within hepatic macrophage/Kupffer cells. Together, this suggests that stress preferentially induces a pro-inflammatory response in the liver.

Abstract
The risk of mineral and bone disorders among patients with chronic kidney disease is substantially elevated, owing largely to alterations in calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, and fibroblast growth factor 23. The interwoven relationship among these minerals and hormones results in maladaptive responses that are differentially affected by the process of kidney transplantation. Interpretation of conventional labs, imaging, and other fracture risk assessment tools are not standardized in the post-transplant setting. Post-transplant bone disease is not uniformly improved and considerable variation exists in monitoring and treatment practices. A spectrum of abnormalities such as hypophosphatemia, hypercalcemia, hyperparathyroidism, osteomalacia, osteopenia, and osteoporosis are commonly encountered in the post-transplant period. Thus, reducing fracture risk and other bone-related complications requires recognition of these abnormalities along with the risk incurred by concomitant immunosuppression use. As kidney transplant recipients continue to age, the drivers of bone disease vary throughout the post-transplant period among persistent hyperparathyroidism, de novo hyperparathyroidism, and osteoporosis. The use of anti-resorptive therapies require understanding of different options and the clinical scenarios that warrant their use. With limited studies underscoring clinical events such as fractures, expert understanding of MBD physiology, and surrogate marker interpretation is needed to determine ideal and individualized therapy.

Abstract
We herein describe two patients with a prolonged disturbance of consciousness due to severe hypophosphatemia. Case one presented with pneumococcal infection and acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. Case two presented with diabetic foot infections and diabetic ketoacidosis. Both patients responded to initial therapy for their primary diseases, but consciousness became worse in both cases. Their test results for impaired consciousness revealed severe hypophosphatemia; therefore, phosphate replacement therapy was administered, thus resulting in complete alertness. These cases demonstrate that we should consider the possibility of hypophosphatemia in critically ill patients with an altered consciousness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the hitherto unrecognized occurrence of transient ionized hypocalcemia with acute adrenal insufficiency and its therapy. METHODS We present three case reports with documented longitudinal laboratory findings. RESULTS Transient ionized hypocalcemia of acute illness has been noted in children and adults and is associated with increased mortality. Precipitating illnesses include gram-positive and gram-negative sepsis and staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome. We encountered three patients with transient ionized hypocalcemia associated with acute adrenal insufficiency. Similar to severely ill, transiently hypocalcemic patients without adrenal insufficiency, one patient demonstrated 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency, a second had minimal magnesium deficiency, and a third had no identifiable underlying abnormality. All three patients exhibited a transient increase in levels of serum intact parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in response to ionized hypocalcemia, indicative of temporary secondary hyperparathyroidism. Two of the three patients were treated solely with glucocorticoids and intravenous administration of fluids, whereas the third received minimal intramuscularly administered magnesium and antibiotics in addition. All ultimately demonstrated a return to normal of serum total and ionized calcium, parathyroid hormone, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D with no further treatment, even though one patient remained deficient in 25-hydroxyvitamin D. CONCLUSION On the basis of these cases, we conclude that acute adrenal insufficiency and its treatment must be added to the disorders associated with transient ionized hypocalcemia and that transient secondary hyperparathyroidism is characteristic of at least some of the patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypophosphatemia is observed in both genetic diseases and acquired disorders, although it has never been described in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The present study reports hypophosphatemia observed in patients with SLE, and investigates whether serum phosphorus (P) concentration is associated with disease activity and some cytokines. METHODS Six girls with SLE (age 10 to 16 years) and seven age-matched controls were studied. Relationships between serum P and parameters that represented disease activity were evaluated. Interleukin (IL) 6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Two of the patients with SLE developed marked hypophosphatemia during active disease. Their serum P significantly correlated positively with serum complements, red blood cell (RBC) and platelet counts, and negatively with anti-double-stranded DNA antibody (dsDNAab). Three of the remaining four patients showed the same trend, in which their serum P significantly correlated with RBC, platelets, dsDNAab and/or serum complement concentrations. Serum and urinary IL-6 and serum TNF-alpha were higher in active SLE patients than those with inactive disease or in the control group. In addition, the concentrations of these cytokines significantly correlated inversely with serum P. Renal tubular reabsorption of P was significantly lower in patients with active disease both with and without lupus nephritis. CONCLUSIONS Hypophosphatemia may be another sign of juvenile SLE, and serum P may represent disease activity. Both TNF-alpha and IL-6 may be related to hypophosphatemia in patients with SLE. Waste of P from renal tubules may be a possible mechanism of hypophosphatemia in SLE.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW There is an intimate relationship between phosphate and calcium homeostasis throughout the animal kingdom. One traditional assumption is that all phosphate-regulating hormones are primarily calcium-regulating hormones. Although the notion of a circulating substance dedicated to phosphate homeostasis has existed for more than a decade, it is not until recently that these hormones have been identified. The molecular characterization of these substances will prove to be critical for understanding phosphate physiology and clinical disorders of phosphate metabolism. RECENT FINDINGS This review will focus primarily on the first two proteins recently shown to have phosphatonin properties. Using three human diseases as models and a combination of positional cloning and differential gene expression, fibroblast growth factor 23 and frizzled-related protein 4 were shown to be associated with one or more of these diseases. Although both of these substances have phosphaturic action, their biological effects are likely to extend beyond epithelial phosphate transport. SUMMARY The phosphatonins are a growing family of substances that may act on multiple organs in autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine modes to regulate phosphate metabolism. As this list expands, the need for a more rigid definition of the term phosphatonin becomes evident. The identification and characterization of these phosphate-regulatory compounds will provide a clearer understanding of how individual phosphatonins regulate phosphate in normal and disease physiology.

Abstract
Patients with anorexia nervosa exhibit acid-base and electrolyte disturbances. Hypophosphatemia is commonly found in these patients during nutritional recovery. However, marked, possibly, life-threatening hypophosphatemia associated with proximal tubular dysfunction has not been previously described. We report a case of anorexia nervosa complicated by a nonacidotic proximal tubulopathy, which was manifested by renal glycosuria, as well as inappropriate phosphaturia and uricosuria resulting in hypophosphatemia and hypouricemia.

Abstract
We have investigated the nongenomic as well as the genomic effects of glucocorticoids on phosphate (Pi) uptake in primary rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs) and have defined the involved signaling pathways. In the present study, cortisol-BSA (cortisol-BSA) (>10(-9) M, 30 min) was found to inhibit Pi uptake in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. However, progesterone-BSA (P(4)-BSA), 17ss-estradiol-BSA (E(2)-BSA), testosterone-BSA (T(4)-BSA), aldosterone, P(4), E(2), and T(4) (10(-9) M, 1 h) had no effect on Pi uptake. In addition, cortisol-BSA (10(-9) M) did not affect either Na(+) uptake or alpha-methylglucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake. The cortisol-BSA-induced inhibition of Pi uptake was associated with a decrease in the V(max) for Pi uptake, rather than the K(m). The inhibitory effect of cortisol-BSA was not blocked either by actinomycin D (an inhibitor of transcription), cycloheximide (an inhibitor of translation), or classical glucocorticoid receptor antagonists (RU 486 or P(4)). The cortisol-BSA-induced inhibition of Pi uptake was blocked by two phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitors (neomycin or U73122), and two protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors (staurosporine or bisindolylmaleimide I) but not by two adenylate cyclase/protein kinase A inhibitors [SQ 22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor) or myristoylated protein kinase A inhibitor amide 14-22]. Furthermore, cortisol-BSA promoted the translocation of PKC from the cytosolic fraction to the membrane fraction, while having no effect on the activity of adenylate cyclase. Our observations may thus be interpreted as indicating that cortisol does indeed inhibit renal Pi uptake via a nongenomic mechanism, which involves the PLC/PKC pathway.

Abstract
Renal proximal tubular reabsorption of P(i) is a key element in overall P(i) homeostasis, and it involves a secondary active P(i) transport mechanism. Among the molecularly identified sodium-phosphate (Na/P(i)) cotransport systems a brush-border membrane type IIa Na-P(i) cotransporter is the key player in proximal tubular P(i) reabsorption. Physiological and pathophysiological alterations in renal P(i) reabsorption are related to altered brush-border membrane expression/content of the type IIa Na-P(i) cotransporter. Complex membrane retrieval/insertion mechanisms are involved in modulating transporter content in the brush-border membrane. In a tissue culture model (OK cells) expressing intrinsically the type IIa Na-P(i) cotransporter, the cellular cascades involved in "physiological/pathophysiological" control of P(i) reabsorption have been explored. As this cell model offers a "proximal tubular" environment, it is useful for characterization (in heterologous expression studies) of the cellular/molecular requirements for transport regulation. Finally, the oocyte expression system has permitted a thorough characterization of the transport characteristics and of structure/function relationships. Thus the cloning of the type IIa Na-P(i )cotransporter (in 1993) provided the tools to study renal brush-border membrane Na-P(i) cotransport function/regulation at the cellular/molecular level as well as at the organ level and led to an understanding of cellular mechanisms involved in control of proximal tubular P(i) handling and, thus, of overall P(i) homeostasis.

Abstract
The effects of chronic administration of methylprednisolone (MP) were studied on the ontogeny of the renal type II Na-P(i) transporter (NaPi-2). Immunoblot analysis showed that MP did not alter the expression of NaPi-2 protein levels in suckling and weanling rats; however, there was an approximately 50% decrease in adolescent and adult rats. There was no change in Na-dependent P(i) uptake in brush-border membrane vesicles in suckling rats, but there was an almost twofold decrease in adolescent rats induced by MP treatment. MP administration did not alter mRNA levels in suckling or adolescent rats. Dual injections with the glucocorticoid receptor blocker RU-486 (mifepristone) and MP did not reverse the downregulation of NaPi-2 immunoreactive protein levels in adolescent rats. To control for RU-486 antagonism efficiency, Na/H exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) protein levels were also assayed after injection with RU-486 and MP. As expected, NHE3 protein levels increased after MP injection; however, the increase was blocked in adolescent rats by RU-486. We conclude that there is an age-dependent responsiveness to glucocorticoids and that the marked decrease in NaPi-2 immunoreactive protein levels and activity in adolescent rats is due to posttranscriptional mechanisms.

Abstract
We examined the effect of glucocorticoids on brush border membrane transporters and, furthermore, the involvement of Ca2+ in its action in the primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). Dexamethasone (DEX, 10(-9) M) decreased Pi uptake by 17%; whereas DEX affected neither alpha-methyl-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake nor Na+ uptake. The DEX-induced inhibition of Pi uptake was due to a decrease of V(max). In contrast, other steroid hormones such as progesterone, testosterone, and 17beta-estradiol (10(-9) M) did not induce inhibition of Pi uptake. In order to examine the involvement of Ca2+ in DEX-induced inhibition of Pi uptake, PTCs were treated with A 23187 (10(-6) M, Ca2+ ionophore). A 23187 also inhibited Pi uptake, mimicking DEX action in Pi uptake. Treatments with W-7 (10(-4) M, calmodulin dependent kinase inhibitor), KN-62 (10(-6) M, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II inhibitor), and BAPTA/AM (10(-6) M) or TMB-8 (10(-4) M) (intracellular Ca2+ mobilization blockers) blocked the DEX-induced inhibition of Pi uptake. However, nifedifine, methoxyverapamil (10(-6) M, L-type Ca2+ channel blockers), and EGTA (1 mM, extracellular Ca2+ chelator) did not block it. In conclusion, DEX inhibited Pi uptake via, in part, Ca2+/calmodulin pathway mediated by intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in the PTCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal phosphate (Pi) reabsorption is regulated by dietary Pi intake, as well as in other ways. Changes in Pi reabsorption are associated with the modulation of sodium/Pi cotransporter type II (NaPi-2) protein abundance in the brush border membrane (BBM) of proximal tubules (PTs) and of renal NaPi-2 mRNA levels. In this study, we address whether the NaPi-2 protein and NaPi-2 mRNA distribution patterns in the renal cortex vary in parallel with changes of dietary Pi intake. METHODS We investigated in cryosections of perfusion-fixed rat kidneys by in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) the distribution patterns of NaPi-2 mRNA and of NaPi-2 protein one week, two hours, and four hours after changes in dietary Pi intake. RESULTS NaPi-2 mRNA and NaPi-2 protein were present in PTs exclusively. In rats adapted to one week of high Pi intake, signals for NaPi-2 mRNA and NaPi-2 protein in cortical PTs were weak, except in the convoluted parts of PTs of juxtamedullary nephrons. After one week of low Pi intake, the ISH and IHC signals for NaPi-2 were high in PT segments in all cortical levels. The switch from a chronic high to a low Pi intake within two and four hours induced no increase and a slight increase, respectively, in the NaPi-2 mRNA signal in PTs of midcortical and of superficial nephrons, whereas in the BBM of these nephrons, NaPi-2 protein was markedly up-regulated. Two and four hours after switching from low to high Pi intake, the overall high ISH signal for NaPi-2 mRNA was unchanged, whereas NaPi-2 protein staining was drastically down-regulated in the BBM of PTs from superficial and midcortical nephrons. CONCLUSIONS The marked changes in NaPi-2 protein abundance in the BBM, following altered dietary Pi intake, precede corresponding changes at the RNA level by several hours. Thus, the early adaptation to altered Pi intake involves mRNA-independent mechanisms. The up- or down-regulation of NaPi-2 protein abundance in the BBM and NaPi-2 mRNA in PT affects mainly midcortical and superficial nephrons.

Abstract
Administration of pharmacologic doses of glucocorticoid in vivo increases renal proximal tubule apical membrane Na/H exchange and decreases Na/PO4 cotransport activity (1). Current data suggest that the NHE-3 and NaPi-2 proteins mediate significant fractions of proximal tubule apical membrane Na/H exchange and Na/PO4 cotransport, respectively. This study examines whether glucocorticoid excess or deficiency affects NHE-3 and NaPi-2 protein abundance and the intrarenal distribution of these transporters. Protein abundance of NHE-3 and NaPi-2 in control rats was compared to rats rendered glucocorticoid-deficient by bilateral adrenalectomy, and to rats receiving pharmacologic doses of dexamethasone using immunoblots and immunohistochemistry. Adrenalectomy had modest effects on NHE-3 protein abundance, but dexamethasone administration to either adrenalectomized or sham-operated rats significantly increased NHE-3 protein abundance in both the proximal tubule and thick ascending limb, but not the thin descending limb. Adrenalectomy increased NaPi-2 protein abundance in the proximal tubule, whereas dexamethasone administration dramatically suppressed NaPi-2 protein on the apical membrane in both adrenalectomized and sham-operated animals. No significant reciprocal increase in subapical NaPi-2 staining was seen in the dexamethasone-treated rats. The present study shows that glucocorticoids regulate proximal tubule apical membrane Na/H exchange and NaPi cotransport by changes in protein abundance of NHE-3 and NaPi-2, respectively.

Abstract
Phosphate (Pi) homeostasis is maintained by the ability of the kidneys to adjust the tubular reabsorption of Pi to changes in the dietary intake of phosphorus. Renal tubular Pi reabsorption increases with the ingestion of a low-phosphorus diet (LPD) and decreases when a high-phosphorus diet (HPD) is consumed. A similar adaptive mechanism is also operative at the intestinal microvillus. The adaptive changes in Pi reabsorption are independent of parathyroid hormone production and are paralleled by similar changes in the Na+-dependent Pi transport at the brush border membrane (BBM). Type II Na+-Pi cotransporters (NaPi-2) are mainly involved in such regulatory mechanisms. Chronic dietary phosphorus restriction leads to increased Na+-Pi cotransport rate, along with increased NaPi-2 protein and mRNA abundance. In acute dietary phosphorus restriction, transport rate and NaPi-2 protein are also increased, but mRNA abundance remains unchanged. A shuttling mechanism involving translocation of cotransporters from intracellular pools to the BBM is involved in the rapid proximal tubular adaptation. The intestinal adaptation to changes in dietary phosphorus are similar to those described for the renal Pi transport, but the molecular structure of the intestinal Na+-Pi cotransporter is not known. When nephron mass is reduced, phosphate homeostasis is maintained through enhanced Pi excretion by residual nephrons. The adaptation to renal mass reduction is mediated by increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) production and by PTH-independent mechanisms, including increased intrarenal dopamine production. The adaptive changes of Pi transport to dietary phosphorus restriction can counteract the effect of dietary phosphorus reduction often prescribed in patients with renal failure. However, because of the reduced filtered load of Pi, the overall impact on serum Pi concentration is minimal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether changes in cardiac output, regional blood flow, and intracranial pressure during permissive hypercapnia are blood pH-dependent and can be attenuated by correction of intravascular acidemia. DESIGN Prospective, controlled study. SETTING Research laboratory. SUBJECTS Female Marino ewes. INTERVENTIONS Animals were instrumented with a pulmonary artery catheter, femoral arterial and venous catheters, a catheter in the third cerebral ventricle, and ultrasonic flow probes on the left carotid, superior mesenteric, and left renal arteries 1 wk before experimentation. At initiation of the protocol, ewes underwent endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation under general anesthesia. Minute ventilation was reduced to induce hypercapnia with a target PaCO2 of 80 torr (10.7 kPa). In the pH-uncorrected group (n = 6), arterial blood pH was allowed to decreased without treatment. In the pH-corrected group (n = 5), 14.4 mEq/kg of sodium bicarbonate was given intravenously as a bolus to correct arterial blood pH toward a target arterial pH of 7.40 (dose calculated by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Arterial blood pH, PCO2, cardiac output, intracranial pressure, and carotid, superior mesenteric, and renal artery blood flow rates were measured at normocapnic baseline and at every hour during hypercapnia for 6 hrs. In the pH-uncorrected group, arterial blood pH decreased from 7.41 +/- 0.03 at normocapnia to 7.14 +/- 0.01 (p < .01 vs. normocapnia) as blood PCO2 increased to 81.2 +/- 1.8 torr (10.8 +/- 0.2 kPa). In the pH-corrected group, arterial blood pH was 7.42 +/- 0.02 at normocapnia and was maintained at 7.37 +/- 0.01 while PaCO2 was increased to 80.3 +/- 0.9 torr (10.7 +/- 0.1 kPa). Significant increases in cardiac output occurred with the initiation of hypercapnia for both groups (pH-uncorrected group: 4.3 +/- 0.6 L/min at normocapnia vs. 6.8 +/- 1.0 L/min at 1 hr [p < .05]; pH-corrected group: 4.1 +/- 0.4 at normocapnia vs. 5.7 +/- 0.4 L/min at 1 hr [p < .05]). However, this increase was sustained only in the uncorrected group. Changes in carotid and mesenteric artery blood flow rates, as a percent of baseline values, showed sustained significant increases in the pH-uncorrected groups (p < .05) and only transient (carotid at 1 hr) or no (superior mesenteric) significant change in the pH-corrected groups. Conversely, significant increases in renal artery blood flow were seen only in the pH-uncorrected group during the last 2 hrs of the experiment (p < .05). Organ blood flow, as a percent of cardiac output, did not change significantly in either group. Intracranial pressure increased significantly in the pH-uncorrected group (9.0 +/- 1.5 mm Hg at normocapnia vs. 26.8 +/- 5.1 at 1 hr, p < .05), and remained increased, while showing no significant change in the pH-corrected group (8.5 +/- 1.6 mm Hg at normocapnia to 7.7 +/- 4.2 at 1 hr). CONCLUSIONS Acute hypercapnia, induced within 1 hr, is associated with significant increases in cardiac output, organ blood flow, and intracranial pressure. These changes can be significantly attenuated by correction of blood pH with the administration of sodium bicarbonate, without adverse effects on hemodynamics.

Abstract
The renal Na-Pi cotransport is subject to multiple regulatory inputs, such as endocrine, paracrine and intracrine. Among lipophilic, long-acting hormones that act via genomic mechanism, thyroid hormones, calcitriol, all-trans-retinoic acid stimulate, whereas glucocorticoids and estradiol inhibit the rate of Na-Pi cotransport across the brush border membrane of proximal tubules in vivo and/or across apical membrane of renal epithelial cells in vitro. Some findings suggest that these hormones may also influence Na-Pi cotransporter by modification of membrane microenvironment. It should be considered that Na-Pi cotransport can be modulated by lipophilic hormones by non-genomic signaling mechanisms such as sphingomyelin-ceramide pathway, NAD-cyclic ADP-ribose-Ca2+i pathway or by Ca2+ influx. Recent studies outline a basis for the putative intracrine signaling mechanisms that utilize Ca(2+)-releasing nucleotides, cyclic ADP-ribose, and nicotinic acid adenosine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), as novel second messengers for regulation of Na-Pi cotransport in response to changes of intermediary metabolic processes: gluconeogenesis, pentose phosphate pathway, polyamines and metabolism of fatty acids.

Abstract
1. Prevention of weaning prevents the increase in the carrier affinity for Na(+)-cotransported phosphate (Pi) and the normal elevation of plasma 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) which occur between postnatal days 14 and 21. 2. This study examines the possible role of T3 in the control of the maturation process of Pi transport. Clearance experiments and brush-border membrane studies were performed on 14-day-old rats given T3. 3. The fractional excretion of Pi of T3-treated rats was 33% lower compared with controls (P < 0.01). After Pi perfusion, it remained at a lower level, and the amount of Pi reabsorbed per minute, corrected for the glomerular filtration rate (RPi/GFR), was higher. 4. The membrane vesicles from 14-day-old rats given T3 showed a 30% increase in carrier affinity for Na(+)-cotransported Pi. In addition to this maturational effect of T3, a 46% increase in Vmax was also observed. 5. The amount of immunoreactive Pi transporter, detected using anti-(NaPi-2) antiserum, was increased in T3-treated rats. 6. Glucose transport, another Na(+)-dependent transport system, was not altered by T3. 7. It is concluded that exogenous T3 given before the third postnatal week specifically induced precocious maturation of renal Pi transport in 14-day-old rats, suggesting that thyroid hormone is normally involved in this maturation.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids are important regulators of renal phosphate transport. This study investigates the role of alterations in renal brush border membrane (BBM) sodium gradient-dependent phosphate transport (Na-Pi cotransporter) mRNA and protein abundance in the dexamethasone induced inhibition of Na-Pi cotransport in the rat. Dexamethasone administration for 4 d caused a 1.5-fold increase in the Vmax of Na-Pi cotransport (1785 +/- 119 vs. 2759 +/- 375 pmol/5 s per mg BBM protein in control, P < 0.01), which was paralleled by a 2.5-fold decrease in the abundance of Na-Pi mRNA and Na-Pi protein. There was also a 1.7-fold increase in BBM glucosylceramide content (528 +/- 63 vs. 312 +/- 41 ng/mg BBM protein in control, P < 0.02). To determine whether the alteration in glucosylceramide content per se played a functional role in the decrease in Na-Pi cotransport, control rats were treated with the glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor, D-threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoyl-amino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (PDMP). The resultant 1.5-fold decrease in BBM glucosylceramide content (199 +/- 19 vs. 312 +/- 41 ng/mg BBM protein in control, P < 0.02) was associated with a 1.4-fold increase in Na-Pi cotransport activity (1422 +/- 73 vs. 1048 +/- 85 pmol/5 s per mg BBM protein in control, P < 0.01), and a 1.5-fold increase in BBM Na-Pi protein abundance. Thus, dexamethasone-induced inhibition of Na-Pi cotransport is associated with a decrease in BBM Na-Pi cotransporter abundance, and an increase in glucosylceramide. Since primary alteration in BBM glucosylceramide content per se directly and selectively modulates BBM Na-Pi cotransport activity and Na-Pi protein abundance, we propose that the increase in BBM glucosylceramide content plays an important role in mediating the inhibitory effect of dexamethasone on Na-Pi cotransport activity.

Abstract
Renal phosphate transport matures via an increase in the carrier affinity for phosphate during the 3rd post-natal week in the rat. This study examines whether weaning, which normally takes place during this period, plays a role in phosphate transport maturation. Early weaning (EW) and prevention of weaning (PW) both increased the fractional excretion of phosphate (EW 26.5 +/- 4.9, PW 26.7 +/- 2.2, controls 11.3 +/- 2.8, P < 0.001 and P < 0.05, n = 6 in each group). EW and PW also decreased the uptake of phosphate into brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) isolated from the renal cortex of 21-day-old rats. Glucose transport in BBMV was not affected. The kinetics of phosphate uptake, measured in the presence of a sodium gradient, showed lower Vmax (4,112 +/- 362 pmol/mg protein per 10 s) in EW BBMV than in controls (6,030 +/- 200, n = 5, P < 0.001), but the affinity of the carrier for phosphate (1/Km) did not change. The decrease in Vmax may be due to the enhanced phosphate supply. The affinity of the carrier was lower in PW rats (Km = 0.31 +/- 0.04 mM) than in controls (0.18 +/- 0.04, n = 5, P < 0.01) but the Vmax remained unchanged. The low affinity may indicate that normal maturation of tubular transport, in which carrier affinity increases, is altered. The plasma concentrations of corticosterone, parathyroid hormone, insulin and triiodothyronine and their changes during EW and PW are also reported.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
While the most frequent and prominent side effect of the chronic lithium (Li) administration is dysfunction of collecting ducts and polyuric syndrome, some reports also suggest defects in functions of proximal tubules. We determined the transport properties of brush border membranes (BBM) from kidneys of rats chronically fed for four weeks a chow containing Li (60 mmol/kg; Li-rats) and compared them with BBM from placebo-treated controls. BBM from Li-rats did not differ from controls in Na(+)-gradient-dependent transport of 32Pi, D-[3H]-glucose or L-[3H]-proline, but showed a considerable increase in the transport rates of [14C]-citrate (delta + 53%; P < 0.001) and [14C]-succinate (delta + 48%, P < 0.005), and also enhanced the rate of Na(+)-H+ antiport across BBM (delta + 30%, P < 0.05). In contrast, direct addition of 1 mM Li to BBMV in vitro inhibited Na(+)-dependent transports of both citrate and succinate. The Li-rats had higher plasma level of citrate and decreased (delta - 50%) renal clearance of citrate. Our results show that chronic exposure to oral Li in vivo results in increased Na(+)-gradient-dependent transport of polycarboxylic acids and increased Na(+)-H+ antiport in BBM of proximal tubules; these changes are contrary to effects of Li added to isolated BBM in vitro.

Abstract
Serum phosphorus levels (Ps), dietary intake of phosphorus, and renal phosphate handling indexes were evaluated in 158 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) of varying degrees of severity; moreover, skeletal muscle phosphorus content (Pm) was measured in muscle samples obtained by quadriceps femoris needle biopsy in 14 of the same patients. Hypophosphatemia (Ps less than or equal to 2.5 mg/dl) was found in 34 (21.5 percent) of 158 patients without differences between groups of COPD patients presenting increasing severity of respiratory illness. No relationship was found between serum levels and dietary intake of phosphorus; hypophosphatemia was associated with low renal phosphate threshold (TmPO4/GFR) values in 31 (91 percent) of 34 patients. The prevalence of hypophosphatemia was significantly higher among COPD patients taking one or more drugs commonly used in COPD and known as negatively influencing renal phosphate handling: xanthine derivatives, corticosteroids, loop diuretics, and beta 2-adrenergic bronchodilators. Short-term administration of therapeutic doses of these drugs in COPD patients previously not taking any drug reduced TmPO4/GFR values; phosphaturic effect of short-term theophylline administration on renal phosphate handling was additive to that of long-term assumption of the drug. Muscle phosphorus content was both reduced in COPD patients as compared with control subjects and significantly correlated to serum phosphorus levels and to TmPO4/GFR values. The present investigation revealed a high prevalence of hypophosphatemia among COPD patients as well as a defect in renal phosphate reabsorption secondary, at least in part, to pharmacologic therapy. Moreover, it also suggests that in COPD patients muscle phosphorus content is likely to be reduced in presence of hypophosphatemia.

Abstract
Dexamethasone administered to rats blocks and/or reverses adaptive increases in the rate of Na+-Pi cotransport, and also in the Na+-dependent binding of [14C]-phosphonoformic acid (PFA) by renal brush border membrane (BBM) vesicles elicited by thyroid hormone (T3). In contrast, dexamethasone had no effect on Na+-independent binding of [14C]-phosphonoformic acid, on Na+-dependent transport of D-glucose or on Na+-dependent binding of phlorizin by BBMV which indicates that its inhibitory effect is specific for Na+-Pi cotransport system of BBM. These findings suggest that glucocorticoids antagonize T3-elicited adaptive enhancement of Na+-Pi cotransport in renal proximal tubules by blocking the T3-stimulated de novo synthesis of Na+-Pi symporters and/or their insertion into BBM.

Abstract
The influence of the glucocorticoid dexamethasone on the cAMP response to parathyroid hormone (PTH) and various agonists was studied in epithelial monolayers of opossum kidney (OK) cells. The incubation with dexamethasone for 72 hours led to a dose-dependent higher cAMP response to PTH or forskolin in intact cells as well as in digitonin-permeabilized cells. This effect did not appear to result from changes in phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity nor from alterations in cAMP efflux from the cells. Moreover, dexamethasone increased the formation of domes by OK cell epithelium. Thus, dexamethasone seems to promote a more differentiated renal epithelial phenotype as suggested by enhanced hormonal response.

Abstract
Enhanced renal acidification during chronic hypercapnia (CH) results in transient augmentation in net acid excretion (NAE) (adaptation phase) and persistent acceleration in renal bicarbonate reclamation (adaptation and steady-state phases). The mechanisms responsible for the return of NAE to control values despite persistent acidemia during the steady state phase of CH remain undefined. In addition, it remains unsettled whether the enhancement of renal ammoniagenesis known to occur during the adaptation phase of CH persists during the steady-state phase. Furthermore it is uncertain if the alteration in whole-kidney acidification observed in CH originates from augmentation in the acidification of both proximal and distal nephronal segments. To shed further light on these issues, observations on the profile of the urine acid-base moieties during the adaptive and steady-state phases of CH were carried out in dogs chronically exposed to hypercapnia (10% FiCO2) in an environmental chamber (13 days). Additionally, collecting duct hydrogen ion secretion (CDH+S) was evaluated by employing the U-B PCO2 in alkaline urine in intact unanesthetized dogs with either CH (10% FiCO2) or eucapnia. The balance studies demonstrated that NAE increased in early hypercapnia (4.84 meq/kg body weight, control 3.27 meq/kg body weight, p less than 0.05) and returned to baseline thereafter; by contrast, urine NH+4 which was augmented during the adaptation phase (3.71 meq/kg body weight, control 1.97 meq/kg body weight, p less than 0.05) remained elevated throughout (3.25 meq/kg body weight).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The wealth of new information on BBM transport of Pi which has accumulated in recent years gives an indication of the importance and intellectual challenge that the mechanism of this process poses to investigators. In this brief reflection on the field, we have tried to draw attention to some general principles and features which may be helpful as working hypotheses in the development of the field. To date, a disproportionate amount of effort may have been spent on deciphering putative intracellular regulatory mechanisms, without knowing some essential fundamental properties of the Na+-Pi-COT. We suggest that a major effort should be exerted towards elucidating biogenesis of the Na+-Pi-COT, the possible existence of a membrane cycling mechanism, and a refined analysis of the Na+-Pi-COT in specific subsegments of proximal tubules. Advances in these areas together with studies of both the rapid and long-term adaptive regulation of Pi transport are needed, given the central role of the kidney in total body Pi homeostasis both in health and disease.

Abstract
Pyruvate promotes both phosphate uptake and glucose synthesis by isolated chick kidney proximal tubule cells. 3-Mercaptopicolinate inhibits both glucose synthesis and the promoted phosphate accumulation to the same extent. Glycerol also stimulates glucose synthesis, but does not affect phosphate accumulation. Oxygen utilization by the tissue is slightly stimulated by glycerol and pyruvate, but the enhancement of uptake by pyruvate is unlikely to result from raised cellular oxidative phosphorylation. The action of pyruvate is not a direct effect on the phosphate transporter, or on the transport of phosphate across the basolateral membrane, but entails an obligatory flux to triose phosphate.

Abstract
The newly discovered peptides extracted from cardiac atria, atrial natriuretic factors (ANFs), when administered parenterally cause renal hemodynamic changes and natriuresis. The nephron sites and cellular mechanism accounting for profound increase in Na+ excretion in response to ANFs are not yet clarified. In the present study we investigated whether synthetic ANF peptide alters the reabsorption of Na+ and reabsorption of solutes cotransported with Na+ in the proximal tubules of rats. Synthetic ANF peptide consisting of 26 amino acids, 4 micrograms/kg body wt/h, or vehicle in controls, was infused to surgically thyroparathyroidectomized anesthetized rats. After determination of the fractional excretion (FE) of electrolytes (Na+, K+, Pi, Ca2+, Mg2+, HCO3), the kidneys were removed and luminal brush border membrane vesicles (BBMVs) were prepared from renal cortex. Solute transport was measured in BBMVs by rapid filtration techniques. Infusion of ANF peptide increased FENa, FEPi, and FEHCO3; but FECa, FEK, and FEMg were not changed. The increase in FENa was significantly correlated, on the one hand, with increase of FEPi (r = 0.9, n = 7; P less than 0.01) and with increase of FEHCO3 (r = 0.89, n = 7; P less than 0.01). On the other hand, FENa did not correlate with FEK, FECa, or with FEMg. The Na+ gradient-dependent uptake of Pi by BBMVs prepared from renal cortex of rats receiving ANF infusion was significantly (P less than 0.05) decreased (-25%), whereas the Na+ gradient-dependent uptake of L-[3H]proline and of D-[3H]glucose or the diffusional uptake of 22Na+ were not changed. ANF-elicited change in FEPi showed a close inverse correlation with decrease of Na+-dependent Pi uptake by BBMVs isolated from infused rats (r = 0.99, n = 7; P less than 0.001). Direct addition of ANF to BBMVs in vitro did not change the Na+ gradient-dependent Pi uptake. In rats infused with ANF, the rate of amiloride-sensitive Na+-H+ exchange across the brush border membrane (BBM) was significantly (P less than 0.05) decreased (-40%), whereas the diffusional 22Na+ uptake (0.5 min) and the equilibrium (120 min) uptake of 22Na+ were not changed. The inhibition of Na+-H+ exchange after ANF was likely due to alteration of the BBM antiporter itself, in that the H+ conductance of BBMVs was not increased. We conclude that synthetic ANF (a) decreases tubular Na+ reabsorption linked to reabsorption of HCO3 in proximal tubules, and (b) inhibits proximal tubular reabsorption of Pi coupled to Na+ reabsorption, independent of secretion and/or action of parathyroid hormone or calcitonin. These ANF effects are associated with inhibition of Na+-Pi synport and of Na+-H+ antiport in luminal BBMs. Our findings document that inhibition of Na+-coupled transport processes in proximal tubules is an integral part of the renal response to ANF.

Abstract
In vivo studies indicate that the extent of phosphate (Pi) reabsorption differs in proximal tubules of superficial (SC) and juxtamedullary (JM) nephrons. Since Na-gradient (Nao greater than Nai) dependent uptake of Pi by the luminal brushborder membrane (BBM) may be the rate-determining step in proximal tubular reabsorption, we studied this transport system in brushborder membrane vesicles (BBMV) prepared from SC and JM renal cortex of dogs fed either a low phosphorus diet (LPD, 0.07% Pi) or high phosphorus diet (HPD, 1.2% Pi). In the initial uphill phase (that is, "overshoot"), the rate of Na-gradient dependent uptake of Pi was significantly greater [delta + 35%] in BBMV from the SC cortex (BBMV-SC) than in BBMV from the JM cortex (BBMV-JM) of the dogs fed LPD. Higher Na-dependent Pi uptake was due to significantly (P less than 0.05) higher apparent Vmax (mean +/- SEM, nmoles Pi/0.5 min/mg protein) for Pi in BBMV-SC (7.5 +/- 1.57) compared with Vmax in BBMV-JM (6.05 +/- 1.74). Higher transport of Pi in BBMV-SC compared with BBMV-JM of dogs fed LPD was a difference relatively specific for the Na-dependent Pi uptake system; Na+ independent uptake of Pi and Na-dependent uptake of D-glucose were lower in BBMV-SC than in BBMV-JM. The size of BBMV or rate of Na+ uptake did not differ between BBMV-SC and BBMV-JM. The Na-gradient dependent uptake of Pi was no different between BBMV-SC and BBMV-JM from dogs stabilized on HPD.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Changes in the kinetics of sodium gradient-dependent brush border Pi transport in response to dietary phosphorus deprivation were analysed using initial rate conditions. In rats adapted to low phosphorus diet the apparent Vmax, determined from a double-reciprocal plot, was increased 2-fold but the apparent Km was not different compared to control rats fed normal phosphorus diet. In contrast when renal adaptation to low phosphorus diet was reversed by fasting the apparent Vmax was not significantly different but the apparent Km was increased 5-fold. The results suggest that regulation of renal Pi transport in vivo may occur not only through changes in the apparent Vmax of the brush border Pi transport system but also, in certain circumstances, through changes in the apparent Km.

Abstract
The effects of intravesicular NAD on Na+-dependent 32Pi uptake were investigated in isolated rat kidney brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV). NAD was introduced into the vesicles by osmotic shock, and extravesicular NAD was removed by passing the vesicles through a anion exchange column. The effectiveness of the osmotic shock procedure and the hydrolysis of extra- and intravesicular NAD were controlled by enzymatic analysis and thin layer chromatography. ADP-ribosylation of the membrane proteins was analyzed in vesicles osmotically shocked in the presence of either [adenylate-32P]-NAD or [adenine-2,8-3H]-NAD by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was found that the Na+-dependent Pi uptake was inhibited when the BBMV were incubated with NAD at alkaline pH, which resulted in rapid NAD hydrolysis. When NAD was present in the intravesicular space only, the Na+-dependent Pi uptake was not inhibited. 32P from NAD was rapidly incorporated into a number of brush border membrane proteins, but no incorporation of 3H-adenine could be detected. The results provide evidence that NAD does not inhibit Pi transport by a direct interaction with the cytoplasmic side of the brush border membrane. No evidence of ADP-ribosylation of the brush border membrane protein(s) was found.
