Osmoregulation Flashcards
Evidence for countercurrent hypothesis by micropuncture
Gottschalk and Mylle (1959)
Net transtubular movement of water and urea; primarily from descending limb; compatible with passive movement of water/urea
Lassiter et al (1961)
Model for countercurrent multiplication where loop of Henle operates passively
Kokko and Rector (1972)
Model of secondary active Cl- transport; removal of K+ conductance reduced Isc; compatible with NCKK exchanger
Greger and Schlatter (1981)
Evidence for electroneutral NaCl cotransport (NCKK) in cortical thick ascending limb
Greger et al (1983)
UT-A knockouts have urinary concentrating defects caused by failure of urea transport
Fenton et al (2005)
Transgenic restoration of urea transporter A1 confers maximal urinary concentration in the absence of urea transporter A3
Klein et al (2015)
Active urea secretion into pars recta = urea-selective improvement in urine concentrating ability
Layton and Bankir (2013)
Urea actively secreted by straight segments of superficial and juxtamedullar PT
Karamura and Kokko (1976)
Compatible with passive urea secretion in PST but not a significant degree of active secretion
Knepper (1983)
Secondary active secretor urea transport in inner medullar collecting ducts upregulated in diuretic rats
Kato and Sands (1998)
Supaoptic neurones of rat hypothalamus are osmosensitive
Mason (1980)
• Changes in firing rate of magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) following OVLT stimulation selectively mediated by changes in synaptic excitation
Richard and Bourque (1995)
OVLT detects NaCl to elevate sympathetic nerve activity and blood pressure; intrinsic
Kinsman et al (2017)
NaCl and osmolarity produce different responses in organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis neurons, sympathetic nerve activity and blood pr
