Research Abstract |
We reported that vasopressin V1a receptor deficient mice show type 4 renal tubular acidosis, which is characterized by reduced renal function, metabolic acidosis and hyperkalemia. Since the colleting ducts are the main cite of acid secretion by the kidney, we established a new cell line of the intercalated cells(IN-IC cells) from SV40 large T antigen Tg rats. Using these cells, we also found that vasopressin V1a receptor is required for nucleocytoplasmic transport of mineralocorticoid receptor by aldosterone in the intercalated cells. In conclusion, vasopressin V1a receptor is essential for acid-base regulation by aldosterone in intercalated cells. These data suggest the possibility of clinical use of vasopressin V1a receptor antagonist as an aldosterone antagonist.
