Mechanisms of Regulation of Proximal Tubule Sodium Transporters in Obesity-Induced Hypertension
… was to determine the role of proximal tubule transporters on the renal sodium handling in obese hypertensive (OP) and lean normotensive (OR) rats. An acute increase in renal perfusion pressure resulted in a blunted natriuretic response in OP vs. OR rats and indicated that increased sodium …

Understanding Potassium Homeostasis Using Human and Mouse Genetic Models
… and peptides regulate the activity of potassium transporters in many organs, especially skeletal muscles and kidneys, in response to different conditions. To study the perplexed regulations of potassium transporters, I choose two genetic models of human potassium disorders, hypokalemic periodic …

Mechanisms of Exercise-Mediated Restoration of Renal Dopamine D1 Receptor Function in Aging
… plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Dopamine by activating D1 receptors (D1R) and inhibiting sodium transporters, Na, K-ATPase and Na, H exchanger, in renal proximal tubules (RPTs) promotes sodium excretion and thus maintains sodium homeostasis. …
