The mechanisms and control of
transepithelial inorganic sulfate (Si) transport by primary
cultures of chick renal proximal tubule monolayers in Ussing chambers
were determined. The competitive anion,
S2O32
(5 mM), reduced both
unidirectional reabsorptive and secretory fluxes and net Si
reabsorption with no effect on electrophysiological properties. The
carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitor ethoxzolamide decreased net
Si reabsorption ~45%. CAII protein and activity were
detected in isolated chick proximal tubules by immunoblots and
biochemical assay, respectively. Cortisol reduced net Si
reabsorption up to ~50% in a concentration-dependent manner. Thyroid
hormone increased net Si reabsorption threefold in 24 h, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) acutely stimulated net Si
reabsorption ~45%. These data indicate that CA participates in avian
proximal tubule active transepithelial Si reabsorption,
which cortisol directly inhibits and T3 and PTH directly stimulate.
