Research Abstract |
AngII has biphasic effect (stimulation in low concentration and inhibition in high concentration) on mouse proximal tubule (PT) but in human AngII monophasically stimulates PT transport. To clarify this, NBCe1 activity in PT was measured in human, wild-type and cGKII-/- mice kidney. In human inhibition of NO blocked AngII effect, meanwhile NO donor stimulated NBCe1 activity via ERK. In wild-type mice the inhibition by high concentration of AngII changed to stimulation by inhibition of NO, while NO donor suppressed NBCe1. It was suggested that in human PT AngII has monophasic stimulatory effect via NO and consequent ERK activation, and regulation of blood pressure by AngII is more important.
