Abstract
We have recently reported that type A intercalated cells of the collecting duct secrete Na+ by a mechanism coupling the basolateral type 1 Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter with apical type 2 H+-K+-ATPase (HKA2) functioning under its Na+/K+ exchange mode. The first aim of the present study was to evaluate whether this secretory pathway is a target of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Despite hyperaldosteronemia, metabolic acidosis is not associated with Na+ retention. The second aim of the present study was to evaluate whether ANP-induced stimulation of Na+ secretion by type A intercalated cells might account for mineralocorticoid escape during metabolic acidosis. In Xenopus oocytes expressing HKA2, cGMP, the second messenger of ANP, increased the membrane expression, activity, and Na+-transporting rate of HKA2. Feeding mice with a NH4Cl-enriched diet increased urinary excretion of aldosterone and induced a transient Na+ retention that reversed within 3 days. At that time, expression of ANP mRNA in the collecting duct and urinary excretion of cGMP were increased. Reversion of Na+ retention was prevented by treatment with an inhibitor of ANP receptors and was absent in HKA2-null mice. In conclusion, paracrine stimulation of HKA2 by ANP is responsible for the escape of the Na+-retaining effect of aldosterone during metabolic acidosis.

Abstract
KEY POINTS The cortical collecting duct (CCD) plays an essential role in sodium homeostasis by fine-tuning the amount of sodium that is excreted in the urine. Ex vivo, the microperfused CCD reabsorbs sodium in the absence of lumen-to-bath concentration gradients. In the present study, we show that, in the presence of physiological lumen-to-bath concentration gradients, and in the absence of endocrine, paracrine and neural regulation, the mouse CCD secretes sodium, which represents a paradigm shift. This secretion occurs via the paracellular route, as well as a transcellular pathway that is energized by apical H+ /K+ -ATPase type 2 pumps operating as Na+ /K+ exchangers. The newly identified transcellular secretory pathway represents a physiological target for the regulation of sodium handling and for anti-hypertensive therapeutic agents. ABSTRACT In vitro microperfusion experiments have demonstrated that cortical collecting ducts (CCDs) reabsorb sodium via principal and type B intercalated cells under sodium-depleted conditions and thereby contribute to sodium and blood pressure homeostasis. However, these experiments were performed in the absence of the transepithelial ion concentration gradients that prevail in vivo and determine paracellular transport. The present study aimed to characterize Na+ , K+ and Cl- fluxes in the mouse CCD in the presence of physiological transepithelial concentration gradients. For this purpose, we combined in vitro measurements of ion fluxes across microperfused CCDs of sodium-depleted mice with the predictions of a mathematical model. When NaCl transport was inhibited in all cells, CCDs secreted Na+ and reabsorbed K+ ; Cl- transport was negligible. Removing inhibitors of type A and B intercalated cells increased Na+ secretion in wild-type (WT) mice but not in H+ /K+ -ATPase type 2 (HKA2) knockout mice. Further inhibition of basolateral NaCl entry via the Na+ -K+ -2Cl- cotransporter in type A intercalated cells reduced Na+ secretion in WT mice to the levels observed in HKA2-/- mice. With no inhibitors, WT mouse CCDs still secreted Na+ and reabsorbed K+ . In vivo, HKA2-/- mice excreted less Na+ than WT mice after switching to a high-salt diet. Taken together, our results indicate that type A intercalated cells secrete Na+ via basolateral Na+ -K+ -2Cl- cotransporters in tandem with apical HKA2 pumps. They also suggest that the CCD can mediate overall Na+ secretion, and that its ability to reabsorb NaCl in vivo depends on the presence of acute regulatory factors.

Abstract
The kidney filters vast quantities of Na at the glomerulus but excretes a very small fraction of this Na in the final urine. Although almost every nephron segment participates in the reabsorption of Na in the normal kidney, the proximal segments (from the glomerulus to the macula densa) and the distal segments (past the macula densa) play different roles. The proximal tubule and the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle interact with the filtration apparatus to deliver Na to the distal nephron at a rather constant rate. This involves regulation of both filtration and reabsorption through the processes of glomerulotubular balance and tubuloglomerular feedback. The more distal segments, including the distal convoluted tubule (DCT), connecting tubule, and collecting duct, regulate Na reabsorption to match the excretion with dietary intake. The relative amounts of Na reabsorbed in the DCT, which mainly reabsorbs NaCl, and by more downstream segments that exchange Na for K are variable, allowing the simultaneous regulation of both Na and K excretion.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)/cGMPs cause diuresis and natriuresis. Their downstream effectors beyond cGMP remain unclear. To elucidate a probable function of cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGKII), we investigated renal parameters in different conditions (basal, salt diets, starving, water load) using a genetically modified mouse model (cGKII-KO), but did not detect any striking differences between WT and cGKII-KO. Thus, cGKII is proposed to play only a marginal role in the adjustment of renal concentration ability to varying salt loads without water restriction or starving conditions. When WT mice were subjected to a volume load (performed by application of a 10-mM glucose solution (3% of BW) via feeding needle), they exhibited a potent diuresis. In contrast, urine volume was decreased significantly in cGKII-KO. We showed that AQP2 plasma membrane (PM) abundance was reduced for about 50% in WT upon volume load, therefore, this might be a main cause for the enhanced diuresis. In contrast, cGKII-KO mice almost completely failed to decrease AQP2-PM distribution. This significant difference between both genotypes is not induced by an altered p-Ser256-AQP2 phosphorylation, as phosphorylation at this site decreases similarly in WT and KO. Furthermore, sodium excretion was lowered in cGKII-KO mice during volume load. In summary, cGKII is only involved to a minor extent in the regulation of basal renal concentration ability. By contrast, cGKII-KO mice are not able to handle an acute volume load. Our results suggest that membrane insertion of AQP2 is inhibited by cGMP/cGKII.

Abstract
The influence of human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and of two related peptides, human brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and urodilatin (URO) on the bronchoconstriction induced by inhalation of histamine in conscious, non-anaesthetized guinea pigs was tested.Changes in lung function were registered using two independent methods, one operating in a closed body-plethysmographic system, the other in an open system based on the time lag of air flow curves. The peptides were infused (0.25 ml/min) into the jugular vein for a period from 10 min before until 15 min after the histamine inhalation.ANP displayed virtually no effect on the bronchoconstriction. URO showed some inibition at 1280ng kg(-1) min(-1), but not at lower doses. BNP (640ng kg(-1) min(-1)) inhibited the bronchoconstriction markedly for the total registration period.It can be concluded from these results that BNP exerts bronchoprotective effects in the conscious guinea pig, which are superior to those of ANP or URO.

Abstract
The evolution of the vertebrate kidney records three occasions, each separated by about 50 million years, when fish have abandoned glomeruli to produce urine by tubular mechanisms. The recurring dismissal of glomeruli suggests a mechanism of aglomerular urine formation intrinsic to renal tubules. Indeed, the transepithelial secretion of organic solutes and of inorganic solutes such as sulfate, phosphate, and magnesium can all drive secretory water flow in renal proximal tubules of fish. However, the secretion of NaCl via secondary active transport of Cl is the primary mover of secretory water flow in, surprisingly, proximal tubules of both glomerular and aglomerular fish. In filtering kidneys, the tubular secretion of solute and water is overshadowed by reabsorptive transport activities, but secretion progressively comes to light as glomerular filtration decreases. Thus the difference between glomerular and aglomerular urine formation is more a difference of degree than of kind. At low rates of glomerular filtration in seawater fish, NaCl-coupled water secretion serves to increase the renal excretory capacity by increasing the luminal volume into which waste, excess, and toxic solutes can be secreted. The reabsorption of NaCl and water in the distal nephron and urinary bladder concentrates unwanted solutes for excretion while minimizing renal water loss. In aglomerular fish, NaCl-coupled water secretion across proximal tubules replaces glomerular filtration to increase renal excretory capacity. A review of the literature suggests that tubular secretion of NaCl and water is an early function of the vertebrate proximal tubule that has been retained throughout evolution. Active transepithelial Cl secretion takes place in gall bladders studied as models of the mammalian proximal tubule and in proximal tubules of amphibians and apparently also of mammals. The tubular secretion of Cl is also observed in mammalian distal tubules. The evidence consistent with and for Cl secretion in, respectively, proximal and distal tubules of the mammalian kidney calls for a reexamination of basic assumptions in renal physiology that may lead to new opportunities for managing some forms of renal disease.

Abstract
Ca2+-activated Cl- (ClCa) channels were characterized biophysically and pharmacologically in a mouse kidney inner medullary collecting duct cell line, IMCD-K2. Whole cell recording was performed with symmetrical N-methyl-d-glucamine chloride (NMDG)-Cl in the intracellular and extracellular solutions, and the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was adjusted with Ca2+-EGTA buffers. The amplitude of the current was dependent on [Ca2+]i. [Ca2+]i <800 nM strongly activated outwardly rectifying Cl- currents, whereas high Ca2+ (21 microM) elicited time-independent currents that did not rectify. The currents activated at low [Ca2+] exhibited time-dependent activation and deactivation. The affinity of the channel for Ca2+ was voltage dependent. The EC50 for Ca2+ was approximately 0.4 microM at +100 mV and approximately 1.0 microM at -100 mV. The Cl- channel blocker niflumic acid in the bath equally inhibited both inward and outward currents reversibly, with a Ki = 7.6 microM. DIDS, diphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid, and anthracene-9-carboxylic acid reversibly inhibited outward currents in a voltage-dependent manner. DTT slowly inhibited the currents, but tamoxifen did not. Comparing the biophysical and pharmacological properties, we conclude that IMCD-K2 cells express the same type of ClCa channels as those we have described in detail in Xenopus laevis oocytes (Qu Z and Hartzell HC. J Biol Chem 276: 18423-18429, 2001).

Abstract
The evolution of the kidney has had a major role in the emigration of vertebrates from the sea onto dry land. The mammalian kidney has conserved to a remarkable extent many of the molecular and functional elements of primordial apocrine kidneys that regulate fluid balance and eliminate potentially toxic endogenous and xenobiotic molecules in the urine entirely by transepithelial secretion. However, these occult secretory processes in the proximal tubules and collecting ducts of mammalian kidneys have remained underappreciated in the last half of the twentieth century as investigators focused, to a large extent, on the mechanisms of glomerular filtration and tubule sodium chloride and fluid reabsorption. On the basis of evidence reviewed in this paper, we propose that transepithelial salt and fluid secretion mechanisms enable mammalian renal tubules to finely regulate extracellular fluid volume and composition day to day and maintain urine formation during the cessation of glomerular filtration.

Abstract
We used an unambiguous in vitro method to determine if inner medullary collecting ducts (IMCD) have intrinsic capacities to absorb and secrete solutes and fluid in an isotonic medium. IMCD(1), IMCD(2), and IMCD(3) were dissected from kidneys of young Sprague-Dawley rats. 8-Bromo-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BrcAMP) stimulated lumen formation and progressive dilation in all IMCD subsegments; lumen formation was greatest in IMCD(1.) Benzamil potentiated the rate of lumen expansion in response to 8-BrcAMP. Fluid entered tubule lumens by transcellular secretion rather than simple translocation of intracellular fluid. Secreted lumen solutes were osmometrically active. Inhibition of protein kinase A with H-89 and Rp diastereomer of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate blocked fluid secretion. The rate of lumen expansion was reduced by the selective addition of ouabain, barium, diphenyl-2-carboxylate, bumetanide, glybenclamide, or DIDS, or reduction of extracellular Cl(-). We conclude that IMCD absorb and secrete electrolytes and fluid in vitro and that secretion is accelerated by cAMP. We suggest that salt and fluid secretion by the terminal portions of the renal collecting system may have a role in modulating the composition and volume of the final urine.

Abstract
The mammalian collecting duct plays a dominant role in regulating K(+) excretion by the nephron. The collecting duct exhibits axial and intrasegmental cell heterogeneity and is composed of at least two cell types: collecting duct cells (principal cells) and intercalated cells. Under normal circumstances, the collecting duct cell in the cortical collecting duct secretes K(+), whereas under K(+) depletion, the intercalated cell reabsorbs K(+). Assessment of the electrochemical driving forces and of membrane conductances for transcellular and paracellular electrolyte movement, the characterization of several ATPases, patch-clamp investigation, and cloning of the K(+) channel have provided important insights into the role of pumps and channels in those tubule cells that regulate K(+) secretion and reabsorption. This review summarizes K(+) transport properties in the mammalian collecting duct. Special emphasis is given to the mechanisms of how K(+) transport is regulated in the collecting duct.

Abstract
The mechanism by which bradykinin regulates renal epithelial salt transport has been investigated using a mouse inner medullary renal collecting duct cell-line mIMCD-K2. Using fura-2 loaded mIMCD-K2 cells bradykinin (100 nM) has been shown to induce a transient increase in intracellular Ca(2+) via activation of bradykinin B2 receptors localized to both the apical and basolateral epithelial cell surfaces. In mIMCD-K2 epithelial cell-layers clamped in Ussing chambers, 100 nM bradykinin via apical and basolateral bradykinin B2 receptors stimulated a transient increase in inward short-circuit current (I:(sc)) of similar duration to the increase in intracellular Ca(2+). Replacements of the bathing solution Na(+) by the impermeant cation, N-methyl-D-glucamine and of Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) by the impermeant anion gluconate at either the apical (no reduction) or basal bathing solutions (abolition of the response) are consistent with the bradykinin-stimulated increase in inward I:(sc) resulting from basal to apical Cl(-) (anion) secretion. Using the slow whole cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique, bradykinin was shown to activate a transient Cl(-) selective whole cell current which showed time-dependent activation at positive membrane potentials and time-dependent inactivation at negative membrane potentials. These currents were distinct from those activated by forskolin (CFTR), but identical to those activated by exogenous ATP and are therefore consistent with bradykinin activation of a Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) conductance. The molecular identity of the Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) conductance has been investigated by an RT - PCR approach. Expression of an mRNA transcript with 96% identity to mCLCA1/2 was confirmed, however an additional but distinct mRNA transcript with only 81% of the identity to mCLCA1/2 was identified.

Abstract
Evidence of absorptive or secretory ion transport in different respiratory regions of the mouse was sought by assessing the regional distribution of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-epithelial sodium channel (ENaC; Na(+) absorptive), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductor regulator (CFTR), and Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter mRNAs. High levels of ENaC subunit expression were found in nasal surface epithelium and gland ducts. CFTR was expressed in both superficial nasal respiratory epithelium and glands. These results are consistent with basal amiloride-sensitive Na(+) absorption and cAMP-dependent Cl(-) secretion in murine nasal epithelia. Expression of all three ENaC subunits increased progressively from trachea to terminal bronchioles. Intermediate levels of CFTR and cotransporter expression in bronchial epithelium diminished in bronchioles. The low abundance of CFTR mRNA throughout murine pulmonary epithelium is consistent with functional data that attributes Cl(-) secretion predominantly to an alternative Cl(-) channel. alpha-ENaC as the only mRNA found in all regions of airway epithelia is consistent with the alpha-subunit as requisite for Na(+) absorption, and the increased expression of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-ENaC in distal airways suggests a greater absorptive capability in this region.

Abstract
1. The nature of Cl- conductance(s) participating in transepithelial anion secretion by renal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD, mIMCD-K2 cell line) was investigated. 2. Extracellular ATP (100 microM) stimulated a transient increase in both whole-cell Cl- conductance and intracellular free Ca2+. In contrast, ionomycin (10-100 nM) caused a sustained increase in whole-cell Cl- conductance. Pre-loading cells with the Ca2+ buffer BAPTA abolished the ATP-dependent responses and delayed the onset of the increase observed with ionomycin. 3. The Ca2+-activated whole-cell Cl- current stimulated by ATP (peak) and ionomycin (maximal) displayed (i) a linear steady-state current-voltage relationship and (ii) time and voltage dependence with slow activation at +80 mV and slow inactivation at -80 mV. In BAPTA-loaded cells, ionomycin-elicited whole-cell currents exhibited pronounced outward rectification with time-dependent activation/inactivation. 4. Ca2+-activated and forskolin-activated Cl- conductances co-exist since ATP activation of whole-cell current occurred during a maximal stimulation by forskolin in single cell recordings. 5. In IMCD epithelial layers, ATP and ionomycin stimulated an inward short circuit current (Isc) dependent upon basal medium Na+ and Cl-/HCO3- but independent of the presence of apical bathing medium Na+ and Cl-/HCO3-. This was identical to forskolin stimulation and consistent with transepithelial anion secretion. 6. PCR amplification of reverse-transcribed mRNA using gene-specific primers demonstrated expression of both cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mRNA and Ca2+-activated Cl- channel (mCLCA1) mRNA in mIMCD-K2 cells. 7. Ca2+ and forskolin-activated Cl- conductances participate in anion secretion by IMCD.

Abstract
Na-K-Cl cotransport plays an important role in the kidney in NaCl reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle and a less well defined role in the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). Two Na-K-Cl cotransporters encoded by different genes have been identified in the mammalian kidney: BSC1/NKCC2 which localizes to the apical thick ascending limb of Henle and BSC2/NKCC1 which was isolated from a mouse IMCD cell line (mIMCD-3) but its localization has not been determined. In this study we generated a polyclonal antibody (anti-mBSC2) against the mouse BSC2/NKCC1 protein in order to characterize and localize this protein in mouse kidney. Western blot analysis with affinity-purified anti-mBSC2 showed a protein doublet of 140 and 150 kD which was most abundant in the renal papilla but also seen in cortex and outer medulla. The 140-150-kD bands were not seen with preimmune serum or with anti-mBSC2 preabsorbed with specific antigen. Immunolocalization confirmed expression of mBSC2 protein on the basolateral surface of terminal IMCD segments and demonstrated expression in the papillary surface epithelium. Immunofluorescence also revealed the unexpected presence of the BSC2 protein at the juxtaglomerular afferent arteriole, in a juxtaglomerular structure probably representing the extraglomerular mesangium, and throughout the glomerular mesangium.

Abstract
Mesangial cells (MC) are a main target of natriuretic peptides in the kidney and are thought to play a role in regulating glomerular filtration rate. We examined the influence of cGMP-generating (i.e. guanosine 3',5'-cyclicmonophosphate) peptides on membrane voltages (Vm) of rat MC by using the fast whole-cell patch-clamp technique. The cGMP-generating peptides were tested at maximal concentrations ranging from 140 to 300 nmol/l. Whereas human CNP (C natriuretic peptide), rat guanylin and human uroguanylin had no significant effect on Vm these cells, human BNP (brain natriuretic peptide), rat CDD/ANP-99-126 (cardiodilatin/atrial natriuretic peptide) and rat CDD/ANP-95-126 (urodalatin) hyperpolarized Vm significantly by 1.6 +/- 0.4 mV (BNP, n=8), 3.7 +/- 0.3 mV (CDD/ANP-99-126, n=25) and 2.8 +/- 0.4 mV (urodilatin, n=9), respectively. The half-maximally effective concentration (EC50) for the latter two was around 400 pmol/l each. This hyperpolarization could be mimicked with 0.5 mmol/l 8-bromo-guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-Br-cGMP) and was blocked by 5 mmol/l Ba2+. The K+ channel blocker 293 B (100 micromol/l) depolarized basal Vm by 4.3 +/- 0.4 mV (n=8), but failed to inhibit the hyperpolarization induced by CDD/ANP-99-126 (160 nmol/l) (n=8). The K+ channel opener cromakalim (10 micromol/l) neither influenced basal Vm nor altered the hyperpolarization induced by 160 nmol/l CDD/ANP-99-126 (n=8). Adenosine (100 micromol/l) hyperpolarized Vm by 13.4 +/- 1.3 mV (n=16). At 100 micromol/l, 293 B did not inhibit the adenosine-induced hyperpolarization (n=6). At 160 nmol/l, CDD/ANP-99-126 enhanced the adenosine-induced hyperpolarization significantly by 1.5 +/- 0.6 mV (n=10). CDD/ANP-99-126 (160 nmol/l) failed to modulate the value to which Vm depolarized in the presence of 1 nmol/l angiotensin II (n=10), but accelerated the repolarization to basal Vm by 49 +/- 20% (n=8). These results indicate that the natriuretic peptides CDD/ANP-99-126, CDD/ANP-95-126 and BNP hyperpolarize rat MC probably due to an increase of a K+ conductance. This effect modulates the voltage response induced by angiotensin II. The natriuretic-peptide-activated conductance can be blocked by Ba2+, but not by 293 B and cannot be activated by cromakalim. This increase in the K+ conductance seems to be additive to that inducable by adenosine, indicating that different K+ channels are activated by these hormones.

Abstract
Recent studies have suggested a selective effect of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in regulating NaCl reabsorption in juxtamedullary nephrons. We examined (a) functional differences between medullary thick ascending limbs from long and short loops of Henle (lMAL and sMAL, respectively) and (b) the interaction of ANP and arginine vasopressin (AVP) on Cl- transport (JCl) in these two segments. AVP-, glucagon-, and calcitonin-stimulated cAMP accumulation was higher in lMAL than in sMAL. 10(-10) M AVP increased JCl in lMAL but not in sMAL. ANP-stimulated cGMP production was higher in lMAL than in sMAL. 10(-10) and 10(-8) M ANP inhibited AVP-stimulated JCl in lMAL by 26-30% (from 70.3 +/- 11.4 to 51.7 +/- 13.6 pmol/mm per min and from 88.1 +/- 10.1 to 61.8 +/- 11.7 pmol/mm per min, respectively), and this effect was mimicked by 10(-5) to 10(-4) M cGMP. This effect of ANP in lMAL could account for a large part of the ANP-induced natriuresis and diuresis in vivo, in that the rate of NaCl reabsorption in MAL is the largest among distal nephron segments, providing the chemical potential energy for the renal countercurrent multiplication system.

Abstract
Stimulation of the release of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) in the kidney has been shown to result in natriuresis without affecting glomerular filtration rate. This may be due to EDRF directly regulating solute transport in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). To test this hypothesis, we measured the effect of bradykinin (Bk) or acetylcholine (Ach) on short-circuit current (Isc; a measure of active transport) in a CCD cell line (M-1), in the presence or absence of cow pulmonary artery endothelial (CPAE) cells. 10(-9) M Bk or 10(-7) M Ach had no effect on M-1 Isc in which CPAE cells were absent. The addition of CPAE cells to M-1 cells also did not affect M-1 Isc. On the other hand, when 10(-9) M Bk or 10(-7) M Ach were added to M-1 cells in the presence of CPAE cells, Isc decreased from 43 +/- 4.5 to 26 +/- 4 and 64 +/- 9 to 33 +/- 4 microA/cm2, respectively (P less than 0.001). Nitroarginine (N-Arg, 10(-4) M), a competitive inhibitor of EDRF production, blocked the inhibition in M-1 Isc due to both agonists. Since cGMP is the second messenger of EDRF in vascular smooth muscle, we measured the effects of Bk on cGMP production in M-1 cells in the presence and absence of CPAE cells. Bk increased cGMP content in M-1 cells in the presence of CPAE cells from 33 +/- 3.4 to 132 +/- 11.7 fmol/10(6) M-1 cells (P less than 0.001). When cultures of M-1 and CPAE cells were treated with N-Arg and challenged with Bk, Bk's effect on cGMP was partially blocked (61.4 +/- 12 fmol/10(-6) M-1 cells; NS). These data suggest that EDRF inhibits transport and increases cGMP content in M-1 cells.

Abstract
We examined the action of high (2 x 10(-8)M) and low (6 x 10(-9)M) concentrations of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on water and urea transport in the rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) using the in vitro microperfusion technique. We measured the hydraulic conductivity (Lp x 10(-6) cm/atm per second) and both lumen-to-bath (Pu(lb] and bath-to-lumen (Pu(bl)) 14C-urea permeabilities (Pu x 10(-5) cm/s) in the absence and in the presence of vasopressin (VP). High concentrations of ANF were able to inhibit the maximum activity of (50 microU/ml) VP-stimulated Lp but physiological concentration of ANF inhibit only submaximum activity (10 microU/ml) of VP-stimulated Lp. The hydrosomotic effect of dibutyryl-cyclic 3.5 adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (10(-4)M) was unchanged by high concentrations of ANF (2 x 10(-8)M). Also we found that high (10(-4)M) and low (10(-6)M) concentrations of exogenous cyclic 3,5-guanosine monophosphate (GMP) while unable to change the Lp in the absence of VP, decreased the maximum activity of VP-stimulated Lp significantly. We also found that ANF inhibits partially and in a reversible manner the VP-stimulated Pu(lg) but not the VP-stimulated Pu(bl). These results demonstrated that plasma concentrations of ANF observed during volume expansion (10(-10)M) are able to inhibit submaximum activity of VP-stimulated (10 microU/ml) Lp in the rat IMCD, this effect seems to occur before cAMP formation and it appears to be mediated by cGMP. ANF (6 x 10(-9)M) also reduced the VP-stimulated urea outflux.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
