1. Peritubular capillary microperfusion was used to examine the effects of protein-free and hyperoncotic homologous plasma on fluid reabsorption by proximal convoluted tubules in the hydropenic rat. 3H-labelled p-aminohippurate was added to perfusates for the purpose of estimating the extent to which tubules under study were bathed by the perfusates. [14C]Mannitol was added to perfusates in order to detect contamination of collected tubular fluid by perfusates. 2. Hydrostatic pressures were monitored in the peritubular microvasculature and adjacent proximal tubules during perfusion. Evidence for secretion of p-aminohippurate from perfusate into tubules under study was determined by collecting tubular fluid from both early and late puncture sites. Fractional and absolute reabsorption were not affected by either the protein-free or the hyperoncotic plasma. 3. When acetazolamide was added to the perfusate both fractional and absolute reabsorptive rates decreased by an average of 36%, indicating that the techniques were capable of detecting a decrease in proximal tubular reabsorption. 4. It is concluded that under the conditions of this study changes in peritubular capillary protein concentrations have no detectable effect on the rate of proximal convoluted tubule fluid reabsorption.

Proximal Tubular Reabsorption

The rate of proximal tubular reabsorption of phosphate (Pi) is a major determinant of Pi homeostasis. Deviations of the extracellular concentration of Piare corrected by many factors that control the activity of Na-Pi cotransport across the apical membrane. In this review, we describe the regulation of proximal tubule Pi reabsorption via one particular Na-Pi cotransporter (the type IIa cotransporter) by parathyroid hormone (PTH) and dietary phosphate intake. Available data indicate that both factors determine the net amount of type IIa protein residing in the apical membrane. The resulting change in transport capacity is a function of both the rate of cotransporter insertion and internalization. The latter process is most likely regulated by PTH and dietary Pi and is considered irreversible since internalized type IIa Na-Picotransporters are subsequently routed to the lysosomes for degradation.

The determinants of absolute proximal reabsorption (APR) were studied in four groups of rats during hydropenia, partial renal vein occlusion (RVO), saline expansion, and RVO after saline expansion. Nephron filtration rate (SNGFR), nephron plasma flow (RPF), APR, and proximal tubule (Pt) peritubular capillary (HPc), and interstitial (HPi) hydrostatic pressures were measured by micropuncture techniques. Subcapsular space (pii) and star peritubular capillary (piE) oncotic pressures were also determined. The peritubular capillary permeability coefficiency (LpAR) and the corresponding effective reabsorptive pressure (ERP) were computed, where APR = LpAR . ERP, and ERP = net reabsorptive pressure across the peritubular capillary. The results indicate that APR correlates best with SNGFR (P less than 0.05), but not with (pii - HPi), RPF, or LpAR. There was a significant relationship between piE and LpAR, where LpAR fell with increases in piE (P less than 0.01). In conclusion, 1) changes in absolute proximal reabsorption correlate best with changes in nephron filtration rate but not with (pii - HPi) across this range of values, 2) changes in efferent oncotic pressure (piiE) correlated inversely with LpAR, and 3) glomerulotubular balance in the proximal tubule can be partially attributed to intraluminal factors.

Proximal Tubular Reabsorption

A nonobstructing optical method was developed to measure proximal tubular fluid reabsorption in rat nephron at 0.25 Hz. The effects of uncaging luminal nitric oxide (NO) on proximal tubular reabsorption were investigated with this method. Proximal fluid reabsorption rate was calculated as the difference of tubular flow measured simultaneously at two locations (0.8–1.8 mm apart) along a convoluted proximal tubule. Tubular flow was estimated on the basis of the propagating velocity of fluorescent dextran pulses in the lumen. Changes in local tubular flow induced by intratubular perfusion were detected simultaneously along the proximal tubule, indicating that local tubular flow can be monitored in multiple sites along a tubule. The estimated tubular reabsorption rate was 5.52 ± 0.38 nl·min−1·mm−1 ( n = 20). Flash photolysis of luminal caged NO (potassium nitrosylpentachlororuthenate) was induced with a 30-Hz UV nitrogen-pulsed laser. Release of NO from caged NO into the proximal tubule was confirmed by monitoring intracellular NO concentration using a cell-permeant NO-sensitive fluorescent dye (DAF-FM). Emission of DAF-FM was proportional to the number of laser pulses used for uncaging. Photolysis of luminal caged NO induced a dose-dependent inhibition of proximal tubular reabsorption without activating tubuloglomerular feedback, whereas uncaging of intracellular cGMP in the proximal tubule decreased tubular flow. Coupling of this novel method to measure reabsorption with photolysis of caged signaling molecules provides a new paradigm to study tubular reabsorption with ambient tubular flow.
