On the Mechanism of Inhibition in Fluid Reabsorption by the Renal Proximal Tubule of the Volume-Expanded Rat

Abstract

We undertook to determine the extent to which the inhibition in absolute proximal fluid reabsorption in response to expansion of extracellular volume with noncolloid-containing solutions is the result of concomitant reductions in postglomerular (efferent arteriolar) protein concentration. Selective elevation of efferent arteriolar oncotic pressure in volume-expanded rats (Ringer's 10% body weight) to levels slightly in excess of normal by microperfusion with 9-10% albumin-Ringer's solution nearly completely reversed the inhibition in absolute and fractional reabsorption in adjacent proximal tubules. In contrast, during similar microperfusion with a 6-7% albumin solution, no increase in proximal reabsorption was measured. We interpret these findings to indicate that the bulk of the inhibition in absolute proximal reabsorption in response to volume expansion with colloid-free solutions is causally mediated by the accompanying parallel decline in postglomerular vascular protein concentration.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.

Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
