We used an unambiguous in vitro method to determine if inner
medullary collecting ducts (IMCD) have intrinsic capacities to absorb
and secrete solutes and fluid in an isotonic medium. IMCD1, IMCD2, and IMCD3 were dissected from kidneys of
young Sprague-Dawley rats. 8-Bromo-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate
(8-BrcAMP) stimulated lumen formation and progressive dilation in all
IMCD subsegments; lumen formation was greatest in IMCD1.
Benzamil potentiated the rate of lumen expansion in response to
8-BrcAMP. Fluid entered tubule lumens by transcellular secretion rather
than simple translocation of intracellular fluid. Secreted lumen
solutes were osmometrically active. Inhibition of protein kinase A with
H-89 and Rp diastereomer of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate
blocked fluid secretion. The rate of lumen expansion was reduced by the
selective addition of ouabain, barium, diphenyl-2-carboxylate,
bumetanide, glybenclamide, or DIDS, or reduction of extracellular
Cl
. We conclude that IMCD absorb and secrete electrolytes
and fluid in vitro and that secretion is accelerated by cAMP. We
suggest that salt and fluid secretion by the terminal portions of the renal collecting system may have a role in modulating the composition and volume of the final urine.
