Cellular and molecular aspects of the renal effects of diuretic agents.
In the past few years, increased knowledge of the nature of transport proteins and their molecular regulation in the translocation of ions across kidney membranes has emerged. We are beginning to better understand the characteristics of the interaction of diuretics with these transport proteins. It is likely that this knowledge will permit further insight into nephron function regulation.
