Kinin-induced prostaglandin synthesis by renal papillary collecting tubule cells in culture

Abstract: Cells having morphological and histochemical properties of collecting tubules were isolated from rabbit renal papillae. Confluent monolayer cultures of these renal papillary collecting tubule (RPCT) cells formed hemicysts and adhered with morphological asymmetry to Millipore filters. Cultures of 1-day-old RPCT cells synthesized cAMP in response to arginine vasopressin (AVP) (half-maximal response to 10(-10) M), oxytocin, and parathyroid hormone (half-maximal responses at 5 X 10(-9) M) but not to adrenergic age… Show more

“…Although bradykinin receptors have been detected in the lamina propria (Manning et al, 1982) there is no incontrovertible evidence that the eicosanoids are actually generated by the transporting epithelial cells themselves. Perhaps the strongest evidence to involve the epithelial cells is that cultures of collecting tubule cells can release eicosanoids when challenged with kinin (Grenier et al, 1981). Our results, for PGE2, have been confirmed in rabbit ileum and colon, where kinin was found to induce a five fold increase in release (Musch et al, 1983).…”

“…AVPinduced increases in PGE 2 were also greater in medullary slices from DR versus DS rats. Consistent with previous results, 20 AVP did not increase PGE2 in RPCT cells. Arachidonate increased PGE 2 production to the same absolute level in medullary slices from DR versus DS rats thus suggesting that altered availability of endogenous arachidonate may be the basis for the differences in medullary PGE 2 synthesis.…”
