Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to explore the detailed mechanisms of sodium dependent acid base transport in the apical side of renal proximal tubules (PTs). Cell pH measurement was performed in freshly isolated PTs with several inhibitors including EIPA and DIDS, or in cultured PTs which was gene silenced with siRNA. Consequently, we revealed the existence of DIDS-sensitive components other than Na/H exchanger 3 in the apical side of PTs, which was a possible key in species differences of sodium dependent acid base transport among mice, rats and humans.
