Descripción: | p class="MsoNormal"span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: quot;Microsoft Sans Serifquot;,quot;sans-serifquot;; color: #003300;"Background: Vanadate (V) inhibits while potassium (K) depletion stimulates collecting tubule H, K-ATPase activity. In the presence of V, K depletion could not restore the decreased H,K-ATPase activity. The effects of V and K depletion on renal H,K-ATPase protein expression might explain such observation./span/pp class="MsoNormal"span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: quot;Microsoft Sans Serifquot;,quot;sans-serifquot;; color: #003300;"Objective: To examine the effects of V and K depletion on renal H,K-ATPase protein expression. /span/pp class="MsoNormal"span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: quot;Microsoft Sans Serifquot;,quot;sans-serifquot;; color: #003300;"Methods: Rats treated with normal saline solution (NSS) or V (5 mg/kg body weight) received either normal potassium (NK) or low potassium (LK) diet for 10 days.
