Abstract:The effect of complete unilateral ureteral obstruction (CUUO) on proximal tubular functions was studied in rats, using the K+-sensitive microelectrode technique and split oil drop method. In the control kidneys peritubular membrane potential (EMperi) and intracellular potassium activity (aKi) were -70.8 +/- 7.0 mV and 81.2 +/- 22.0 mEq/liter (mean +/- SD), respectively. In the CUUO kidneys both EMperi and aKi were progressively reduced with the duration of obstruction. However, in all tubules aKi values were still above the electrochemical equilibrium. In the three days' CUUO kidneys EMperi and aKi were -51.5 +/- 11.7 mV and 53.8 +/- 22.8 mEq/liter, respectively. Rate of fluid absorption (JVL;nl./sec. mm.) across the proximal tubular epithelium from Ringer solution in the control and three days' CUUO kidneys was 0.029 and 0.0065 respectively. In the CUUO kidneys there were wide variations in JVL and EMperi, but there was a clear correlation between these two variables. JVL from choline chloride solution was negligible in both control and CUUO kidneys. From above results, it was suggested that the proximal tubular reabsorption primarily depending on the Na+-K+ pump might be reduced but still working in the CUUO kidney, and thus the proximal tubular reabsorption might take part in preservation of glomerular filtration during the obstruction.
