In the presence of furosemide (10&lt;sup&gt;-4&lt;\/sup&gt; mol\u00b7l&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;, lumen) and diphenylamine-2-carboxylate (DPC, 10&lt;sup&gt;-4&lt;\/sup&gt; mol\u00b7l&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;, bath), known inhibitors of NaCl reabsorption in the TAL, Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; reabsorption was completely inhibited. In the presence of furosemide, J&lt;sub&gt;Ca&lt;\/sub&gt; fell from 0.75 \u00b1 0.07 to -0.08 \u00b1 0.09 pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;.mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt; (n = 5) and J&lt;sub&gt;Mg&lt;\/sub&gt; from 0.47 \u00b1 0.04 to -0.01 \u00b1 0.11 pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;.mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt; (n = 5). In the presence of DPC, J&lt;sub&gt;Ca&lt;\/sub&gt; fell from 0.57 \u00b1 0.08 to -0.07 \u00b1 0.11 pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;.mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt; (n = 5), and J&lt;sub&gt;Mg&lt;\/sub&gt; from 0.16 \u00b1 0.02 to-0.11 \u00b1 0.07pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;\u00b7mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;(n = 5). With furosemide, inhibition of Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; transport was paralleled by a 93% inhibition of NaCl reabsorption, while in the presence of DPC there was a 60% reduction of NaCl reabsorption. These effects were fully reversed after removal of the inhibitors from the lumen or bath solutions. In the absence of active NaCl transport, a lumen-to-bath directed-NaCl gradient (lumen: 150 m&lt;i&gt;M&lt;\/i&gt; NaCl + furosemide, bath: 50 m&lt;i&gt;M&lt;\/i&gt; NaCl + 200 m&lt;i&gt;M&lt;\/i&gt; mannitol) generated a negative transepithelial dilution potential of-13.8 \u00b1 1.1 mV (n = 8) which induced a significant Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; secretion into the tubular lumen of -0.59 \u00b1 0.06 and 0.43 \u00b1 0.05pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;\u00b7mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt; (n = 8), respectively. Abath-to-lumen-directed NaCl gradient on the other hand (lumen: 50 m&lt;i&gt;M&lt;\/i&gt; NaCl + furosemide, bath: 150m&lt;i&gt;M&lt;\/i&gt; NaCl) generated a positive transepithelial dilution potential of +15.9 \u00b1 0.6 mV (n = 7), inducing a significant Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; reabsorption of 0.62 \u00b1 0.08 and 0.38 \u00b1 0.07 pmol\u00b7min&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt; mm&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;\/sup&gt;(n = 7), respectively. Linear regression analysis of individual Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; net flux data versus voltage indicated that J&lt;sub&gt;Ca&lt;\/sub&gt; and J&lt;sub&gt;Mg&lt;\/sub&gt; were highly correlated to PD&lt;sub&gt;te&lt;\/sub&gt;. In conclusion, these data indicate that transepithelial Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; reabsorption in the mouse cTAL is predominantly a passive process, driven by the lumen-positive PD&lt;sub&gt;te&lt;\/sub&gt;.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000173762","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,12]],"date-time":"2008-11-12T13:17:04Z","timestamp":1226495824000},"page":"157-166","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Transepithelial Ca&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; and Mg&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;\/sup&gt; Transport in the Cortical Thick Ascending Limb of Henle\u2019s Loop of the Mouse Is a Voltage-Dependent Process"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Di Stefano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Roinel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"de Rouffignac","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Wittner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,11]]},"container-title":["Kidney and Blood Pressure Research"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/173762","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/173762","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T00:38:04Z","timestamp":1745455084000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000173762"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1993]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,7,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000173762","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1420-4096","1423-0143"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1420-4096","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0143","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1993]]}}}
