Effect of pH on renal tubular cell proliferation and death Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cell line originated from distal renal tubular segment30, 31 was used to evaluate effect of pH on renal tubular cells. Figure 4A showed the morphology of MDCK cells in various pH conditions (from 5.0...
Casts:They are solid and cylindrical structures formed by the precipitation of debris in the renal tubules. Urinary casts are formed only in the distal convoluted tubule or the collecting duct. Hyaline casts are composed primarily of Tamm-Horsfall proteins. Hyaline casts are seen in healthy i...
●When the UOG is less than 150 mosmol/kg in a patient with metabolic acidosis, it is likely that NH4 excretion is impaired, as with a distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA). ●When the UOG exceeds 400 mosmol/kg, it is likely that the urine NH4 concentration is 200 meq/L or greater,...
RTA is characterized by bicarbonaturia secondary to a reduced threshold for bicarbonate reabsorption. At low levels of serum bicarbonate (<14 mEq/L), the filtered bicarbonate is able to be reabsorbed, resulting in a low urine pH. However, under conditions of bicarbonate loading, the re...

This model showed proximal tubule specific gene expression patterns (ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCC4, SLC22A3, SLC40A1), as well as markers for the collecting duct (CDH1, GATA3, AQP3), loop of Henle (CLDN10) and distal tubule (PCBD1, SLC41A3). The functionality of these tubuloids was ...
