Na channels in the apical membrane of the rat renal cortical collecting tubule were studied using the patch-clamp technique. Channel activity was monitored in cell-attached patches on tubules that were split open to expose the luminal surface. Channel number (N), open probability (Po), and currents (i) were measured at 37 degrees C during continuous superfusion of the tubule. Addition of ouabain (1 mM) to the superfusate to increase cell Na resulted in a decrease in the mean number of open channels (NPo) to less than 20% of control values within 2 min. This effect was not reversible within 5 min after removal of ouabain. There was, in addition, a parallel decrease in i. The mechanism of inhibiton appeared to involve increased intracellular Ca (Cai). Cai was measured using the fluorescence of the Ca indicator fura-2 in principal cells of split tubules under conditions identical to those used for electrical measurements. Cai increased from a basal level (153 +/- 36 nM) to a peak level (588 +/- 53 nM) approximately 3 min after the addition of ouabain. When a Ca-free superfusate was used, ouabain did not increase Cai or decrease NPo, although the decrease in i was similar to that observed in Ca-containing solutions. Similar increases in Cai were elicited by the Ca ionophore ionomycin (5 microM) in the presence of 0.1 mM extracellular Ca. This maneuver also resulted in a decrease in NPo which was similar to that observed in the presence of ouabain. Ouabain had no observable effect on cell pH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
