Glomerular charge selectivity for horseradish peroxidase and albumin at low and normal ionic strengths

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica

Abstract

The classical concept of a negative glomerular charge barrier has recently been questioned, mainly based on the somewhat high clearance for anionic horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The validity of using anionic HRP can be tested by changing the properties of the charge barrier. A rather unequivocal approach is to reduce the ionic composition of the perfusate and hence increase the Debye length. We determined the glomerular clearance for horseradish peroxidase and serum albumin, using isolated rat kidneys perfused at 8 degrees C to reduce the tubular modification of the primary urine. The perfusate contained trace amounts of the neutral 125I-nHRP and the anionic 131I-aHRP and were otherwise identical except for different ionic strengths, 152 mM and 34 mM, respectively. During control, the fractional clearance (theta) was 0.11 +/- 0.015 for nHRP and 0.045 +/- 0.010 for aHRP, with an average clearance ratio (n/a) of 2.8 +/- 0.24. Low ionic strength reduced theta for aHRP to 0.027 +/- 0.006, giving an increased clearance ratio for HRP of 4.2 +/- 0.44. The existence of a negative charge barrier is supported by the experiments. The result obtained during normal perfusion is compatible with a charge density (omega) of 34 mEq L-1, using a...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule.
