title: Regulation of Na+/H+ exchange by diadenosine polyphosphates, angiotensin II, and vasopressin in rat cortical collecting duct.
abstract: In principal cells of rat cortical collecting ducts (CCD) cellular pH (pHi) is regulated by basolateral Na+/H+ exchange. The influence of various agonists on pHi and cellular Ca2+ activity ([Ca2+]i) in freshly isolated CCD cells was examined with BCECF and fura-2 fluorescence ratios. The recovery of pHi per minute (delta pH/min) after an acid load was 0.26 +/- 0.03 (N = 53) in control conditions and was increased by the diadenosine polyphosphates Ap4A, Ap5A, Ap6A, the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristat 13-acetate (PMA) (each 5 mumol/L) and angiotensin II (100 nmol/L) by 0.05 +/- 0.02 (N = 10), 0.11 +/- 0.05 (N = 13), 0.09 +/- 0.02 (N = 24), 0.10 +/- 0.03 (N = 7), and 0.09 +/- 0.03 (N = 8), respectively. Vasopressin (10 nmol/L) decreased delta pH/min by 0.11 +/- 0.03 (N = 9); ATP and Ap3A (each 5 mumol/L) had no significant effect. The increase in delta pH/min with Ap6A was abolished in the presence of an inhibitor of protein kinase C, calphostin C (0.1 mumol/l, N = 8). Fura-2 fluorescence ratio was not significantly changed with angiotensin II, Ap3A, or Ap4A but increased with vasopressin, ATP, Ap5A, and Ap6A by 0.08 +/- 0.02 (N = 13), 0.04 +/- 0.02 (N = 13), 0.03 +/- 0.01 (N = 14), and 0.03 +/- 0.01 (N = 10), respectively. These data indicate that Na+/H+ exchange in rat CCD is activated by the stimulation of a Ca(2+)-independent protein kinase C and inhibited by protein kinase A.
