The apical small conductance (SK) channel plays a key role in K secretion in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). A high-K intake stimulates renal K secretion and involves a significant increase in the number of SK channels in the apical membrane of the CCD. We used the patch-clamp technique to examine the role of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) in regulating the activity of SK channels in the CCD. The application of 100 µM genistein stimulated SK channels in 11 of 12 patches in CCDs from rats on a K-deficient diet, and the mean increase in NPo, a product of channel number (N) and open probability (Po), was 2.5. In contrast, inhibition of PTK had no effect in tubules from animals on a high-K diet in all 10 experiments. Western blot analysis further shows that the level of cSrc, a nonreceptor type of PTK, is 261% higher in the kidneys from rats on a K-deficient diet than those on a high-K diet. However, the effect of cSrc was not the result of direct inhibition of channel itself, because addition of exogenous cSrc had no effect on SK channels in inside-out patches. In cell-attached patches, application of herbimycin A increased channel activity in 14 of 16 patches, and the mean increase in NPo was 2.4 in tubules from rats on a K-deficient diet. In contrast, herbimycin A had no effect on channel activity in any of 15 tubules from rats on a high-K diet. Furthermore, herbimycin A pretreatment increased NPo per patch from the control value (0.4) to 2.25 in CCDs from rats on a K-deficient diet, whereas herbimycin failed to increase channel activity (NPo: control, 3.10; herbimycin A, 3.25) in the CCDs from animals on a high-K diet. We conclude that PTK is involved in regulating the number of apical SK channels in the kidney.
