However, the mechanism whereby K<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> loss is minimized and Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> reabsorption is maximized in the face of a reduced lumen-to-bath Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> gradient is not fully understood. The large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel (BK)\u03b21 subunit (gene: Kcnmb1), which has a role in K<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> secretion in the CNT, is absent in the CCD in mice on a control diet. We hypothesized that BK\u03b1\/\u03b21 helps to maximize Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> reabsorption during Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> deficiency. With LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>, the Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> clearance of Kcnmb1-mutant mice ( Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup>) was 45% greater and the plasma Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> concentration and osmolality were significantly reduced compared with wild-type mouse (WT) controls. On LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>, Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup> exhibited exacerbated volume depletion (higher Hct and weight loss) compared with WT. LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>, which did not affect the mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) of WT, significantly reduced MAP of Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup>. The plasma aldosterone concentration of Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup> on LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> was significantly elevated compared with Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup> on a control diet but was not different from WT on LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that BK\u03b1 and BK\u03b21, which were absent in the principal cells (PCs) of the CCD, were localized on the basolateral membrane (BSM) of PCs of WT on LNa<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>. Moreover, BK\u03b1 was absent from the BSM of PCs of Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>-deficient Kcnmb1<jats:sup>\u2212\/\u2212<\/jats:sup>. We conclude that part of the mechanism to maximize Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> reabsorption during Na<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup> deficiency is the placement of BK\u03b1\/\u03b21 channels in the BSM of CCD PCs. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1152\/ajprenal.00191.2009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,21]],"date-time":"2009-05-21T00:57:21Z","timestamp":1242867441000},"page":"F420-F428","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Role of BK\u03b21 in Na<sup>+<\/sup> reabsorption by cortical collecting ducts of Na<sup>+<\/sup>-deprived mice"],"prefix":"10.1152","volume":"297","author":[{"given":"P.
