Locally formed arachidonic acid (AA)
metabolites are important as modulators of many aspects of renal
tubular function, including regulation of the activity of tubular
Na+-K+-ATPase. Here we examined the ontogeny of
the AA metabolic pathways regulating proximal convoluted tubular (PCT)
Na+-K+-ATPase activity in infant and adult
rats. Eicosatetraynoic acid, an inhibitor of all AA-metabolizing
pathways, abolished this effect. AA inhibition of PCT
Na+-K+-ATPase was blocked by the
12-lipoxygenase inhibitor baicalein in infant but not in adult rats and
by the specific cytochrome P-450 fatty acid
-hydroxylase
inhibitor 17-octadecynoic acid in adult but not in infant rats. The
lipoxygenase metabolite 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) and
the cytochrome P-450 metabolite 20-HETE both inhibited PCT
Na+-K+-ATPase in a protein kinase C-dependent
manner, but the effect was significantly more pronounced in infant PCT.
Lipoxygenase mRNA was only detected in infant cortex. Expression of
renal isoforms of cytochrome P-450 mRNA was more prominent in
adult cortex. In summary, the AA metabolic pathways that modulated the
activity of rat renal proximal tubular
Na+-K+-ATPase are age dependent.
