High conductance, Ca-activated K channels were studied in the apical membrane of the rat cortical collecting tubule (CCT) using the patch-clamp technique. In cell-attached patches the channels were found mainly in the closed state at the spontaneous apical membrane potential. They spent progressively more time in the open state as the pipette potential was made negative relative to the bath. In excised patches these channels had a high selectivity for K over Na and were activated by micromolar concentrations of Ca2+ on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane in a voltage-dependent manner. They had a low conductance to Rb and were blocked by Ba (1-100 microM) from the cytoplasmic side and tetraethylammonium (TEA) (0.2-1 mM) from the luminal side. Block by external TEA and small conductance to Rb were used to investigate the role of these channels in K transport by the isolated perfused rabbit CCT. Ba (2.5 mM), a well-studied blocker of apical K conductance in this segment, hyperpolarized the transepithelial voltage (VT) by 3.7 +/- 0.9 mV when added to the luminal solution of the perfused tubule. Addition of TEA (5 mM) to the luminal solution has no effect on VT. When Na transport was abolished by luminal amiloride, perfusion with 30 mM K (replacing Na) resulted in a lumen-negative VT (18-34 mV). Under these conditions, VT was reduced by 6.0 +/- 1.5 mV by 2.5 mM Ba, whereas TEA had no effect. Perfusion with 30 mM Rb (replacing Na) also caused a lumen-negative VT that was approximately 50% of that observed with 30 mM K. The apical K conductance of the perfused CCT appears to be insensitive to luminal TEA and only modestly selective for K over Rb. This conductance, at least under the conditions of our studies, is probably not mediated by the high conductance Ca-activated K channel.
