To investigate regional aspects of hypoxic regulation of adrenomedullin (AM) in kidneys, we mapped the distribution of AM in the rat kidney after hypoxia (normobaric hypoxic hypoxia, carbon monoxide, and CoCl(2) for 6 h), anemia (hematocrit lowered by bleeding) and after global transient ischemia for 1 h (unilateral renal artery occlusion and reperfusion for 6 and 24 h) and segmental infarct (6 and 24 h). AM expression and localization was determined in normal human kidneys and in kidneys with arterial stenosis. Hypoxia stimulated AM mRNA expression significantly in rat inner medulla (CO 13 times, 8% O(2) 6 times, and CoCl(2) 8 times), followed by the outer medulla and cortex. AM mRNA level was significantly elevated in response to anemia and occlusion-reperfusion. Immunoreactive AM was associated with the thin limbs of Henle's loop, distal convoluted tubule, collecting ducts, papilla surface epithelium, and urothelium. AM labeling was prominent in the inner medulla after CO and in the outer medulla after occlusion-reperfusion. The infarct border zone was strongly labeled for AM. In cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells, AM mRNA was significantly increased by hypoxia. AM mRNA was equally distributed in human kidney and AM was localized as in the rat kidney. In human kidneys with artery stenosis, AM mRNA was not significantly enhanced compared with controls, but AM immunoreactivity was observed in tubules, vessels, and glomerular cells. In summary, AM expression was increased in the rat kidney in response to hypoxic and ischemic hypoxia in keeping with oxygen gradients. AM was widely distributed in the human kidney with arterial stenosis. AM may play a significant role to counteract hypoxia in the kidney.  相似文献

In a companion study [Layton AT. A mathematical model of the urine concentrating mechanism in the rat renal medulla. I. Formulation and base-case results. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. (First published November 10, 2010). 10.1152/ajprenal.00203.2010] a region-based mathematical model was formulated for the urine concentrating mechanism in the renal medulla of the rat kidney. In the present study, we investigated model sensitivity to some of the fundamental structural assumptions. An unexpected finding is that the concentrating capability of this region-based model falls short of the capability of models that have radially homogeneous interstitial fluid at each level of only the inner medulla (IM) or of both the outer medulla and IM, but are otherwise analogous to the region-based model. Nonetheless, model results reveal the functional significance of several aspects of tubular segmentation and heterogeneity: 1) the exclusion of ascending thin limbs that reach into the deep IM from the collecting duct clusters in the upper IM promotes urea cycling within the IM; 2) the high urea permeability of the lower IM thin limb segments allows their tubular fluid urea content to equilibrate with the surrounding interstitium; 3) the aquaporin-1-null terminal descending limb segments prevent water entry and maintain the transepithelial NaCl concentration gradient; 4) a higher thick ascending limb Na(+) active transport rate in the inner stripe augments concentrating capability without a corresponding increase in energy expenditure for transport; 5) active Na(+) reabsorption from the collecting duct elevates its tubular fluid urea concentration. Model calculations predict that these aspects of tubular segmentation and heterogeneity promote effective urine concentrating functions.  相似文献

Primary cultures of rat renal inner medullary collecting duct cells were grown to confluence on glass coverslips and treated permeant supports, and the pH-sensitive fluorescent probe 2,7-biscarboxyethyl-5,6-carboxyfluorescein was employed to delineate the nature of the transport pathways that allowed for recovery from an imposed acid load in a HCO3-/CO2-buffered solution. The H+ efflux rate of acid-loaded cells was 13.44 +/- 0.94 mM/min. Addition of amiloride, 10(-4) M, to the recovery solution reduced the H+ efflux rate to 4.06 +/- 0.63 mM/min. The amiloride-resistant pHi recovery mechanism displayed an absolute requirement for Na+ but was Cl(-)-independent. Studies performed on permeable supports demonstrated that the latter pathway was located primarily on the basolateral-equivalent (BE) cell surface and was inhibited by 50 microM 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS). In a Na(+)-replete solution containing DIDS (50 microM) and amiloride (10(-4) M), acid-loaded cells failed to return to basal pHi. To delineate further the amiloride-inhibitable component of pHi recovery, monolayers were studied in the nominal absence of HCO3-/CO2. In 70% of monolayers studied, Na(+)-dependent, amiloride-inhibitable H+ efflux was the sole mechanism whereby acid-loaded cells returned to basal pHi. A Na(+)-independent pathway was observed in 30% of monolayers examined and represented only a minor component of the pHi recovery process. In studies performed on permeable supports, the Na(+)-dependent amiloride-inhibitable pathway was found to be confined exclusively to the BE cell surface. In summary, confluent monolayers of rat renal inner medullary collecting duct cells in primary culture possess two major mechanisms that contribute toward recovery from an imposed acid load, namely, Na+/H+ antiport and Na+/HCO3- cotransport. Na(+)-independent pHi recovery mechanisms represent a minor component of the pHi recovery process in the cultured cell. Both the Na+/H+ antiporter and Na+/HCO3- cotransporter are located primarily on the BE cell surface.  相似文献

The distribution of the trifunctional enzyme C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase (C1-THF synthase) was examined in the rat kidney by immunolocalization with anti-C1-THF synthase serum using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. C1-THF synthase immunoreactivity was detected in both distal and proximal epithelial cells. Staining of the distal tubule epithelia was more intense and granular whereas staining of the proximal tubule epithelia was diffuse. All cells of the cortical collecting duct showed positive granular staining. In the outer medullary collecting duct, the intercalated cells showed intense granular cytoplasmic staining and the principal cells were either negative or weakly positive. The ascending thick limb of Henle's loop was also positive. Glomeruli and the inner medulla showed no staining for C1-THF synthase.  相似文献

Cyclic AMP (cAMP) stimulates the transport of Na(+) and Na,K-ATPase activity in the renal cortical collecting duct (CCD). The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism whereby cAMP stimulates the Na,K-ATPase activity in microdissected rat CCDs and cultured mouse mpkCCD(c14) collecting duct cells. db-cAMP (10(-3) M) stimulated by 2-fold the activity of Na,K-ATPase from rat CCDs as well as the ouabain-sensitive component of (86)Rb(+) uptake by rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured mouse CCD cells (1.5-fold). Pretreatment of rat CCDs with saponin increased the total Na,K-ATPase activity without further stimulation by db-cAMP. Western blotting performed after a biotinylation procedure revealed that db-cAMP increased the amount of Na,K-ATPase at the cell surface in both intact rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured cells (1.3-fold), and that this increase was not related to changes in Na,K-ATPase internalization. Brefeldin A and low temperature (20 degrees C) prevented both the db-cAMP-dependent increase in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase in both intact rat CCDs and cultured cells. Pretreatment with the intracellular Ca(2+) chelator bis-(o-aminophenoxy)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid also blunted the increment in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase caused by db-cAMP. In conclusion, these results strongly suggest that the cAMP-dependent stimulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in CCD results from the translocation of active pump units from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane.  相似文献

In the mammalian kidney the fine control of Na+ reabsorption takes place in collecting duct principal cells where basolateral Na,K-ATPase provides the driving force for vectorial Na+ transport. In the cortical collecting duct (CCD), a rise in intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) was shown to increase Na,K-ATPase activity and the number of ouabain binding sites, but the mechanism responsible for this event has not yet been elucidated. A rise in [Na+]i caused by incubation with the Na+ ionophore nystatin, increased Na,K-ATPase activity and cell surface expression to the same extent in isolated rat CCD. In cultured mouse mpkCCDcl4 collecting duct cells, increasing [Na+]i either by cell membrane permeabilization with amphotericin B or nystatin, or by incubating cells in a K(+)-free medium, also increased Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression. The [Na+]i-dependent increase in Na,K-ATPase cell-surface expression was prevented by PKA inhibitors H89 and PKI. Moreover, the effects of [Na+]i and cAMP were not additive. However, [Na+]i-dependent activation of PKA was not associated with an increase in cellular cAMP but was prevented by inhibiting the proteasome. These findings suggest that Na,K-ATPase may be recruited to the cell membrane following an increase in [Na+]i through cAMP-independent PKA activation that is itself dependent on proteasomal activity.  相似文献

The expression pattern of the electroneutral Na(+)-HCO(3)(-)cotransporter NBCn1 (slc4a7) was investigated by beta-galactosidase staining of mice with a LacZ insertion into the NBCn1 gene. This method is of particular value because it is independent of immunoreactivity. We find that the NBCn1 promoter is active in a number of tissues where NBCn1 has previously been functionally or immunohistochemically identified, including a broad range of blood vessels (vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells), kidney thick ascending limb and medullary collecting duct epithelial cells, the epithelial lining of the kidney pelvis, duodenal enterocytes, choroid plexus epithelial cells, hippocampus, and retina. Kidney corpuscles, colonic mucosa, and nonvascular smooth muscle cells (from the urinary bladder, trachea, gastrointestinal wall, and uterus) were novel areas of promoter activity. Atrial but not ventricular cardiomyocytes were stained. In the brain, distinct layers of the cerebral cortex and cerebellar Purkinje cells were stained as was the dentate nucleus. No staining of skeletal muscle or cortical collecting ducts was observed. RT-PCR analyses confirmed the expression of NBCn1 and beta-galactosidase in selected tissues. Disruption of the NBCn1 gene resulted in reduced NBCn1 expression, and in bladder smooth muscle cells, reduced amiloride-insensitive Na(+)-dependent HCO(3)(-) influx was observed. Furthermore, disruption of the NBCn1 gene resulted in a lower intracellular steady-state pH of bladder smooth muscle cells in the presence of CO(2)/HCO(3)(-) but not in its nominal absence. We conclude that NBCn1 has a broad expression profile, supporting previous findings based on immunoreactivity, and suggest several new tissues where NBCn1 may be important.  相似文献

Nifedipine, a calcium antagonist, has diuretic and natriuretic properties. However, the molecular mechanisms by which these effects are produced are poorly understood. We examined kidney abundance of aquaporins (AQP1, AQP2, and AQP3) and major sodium transporters [type 3 Na/H exchanger (NHE-3); type 2 Na-Pi cotransporter (NaPi-2); Na-K-ATPase; type 1 bumetanide-sensitive cotransporter (BSC-1); and thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter (TSC)] as well as inner medullary abundance of AQP2, phosphorylated-AQP2 (p-AQP2), AQP3, and calcium-sensing receptor (CaR). Rats treated with nifedipine orally (700 mg/kg) for 19 days had a significant increase in urine output, whereas urinary osmolality and solute-free water reabsorption were markedly reduced. Consistent with this, immunoblotting revealed a significant decrease in the abundance of whole kidney AQP2 (47 +/- 7% of control rats, P < 0.05) and in inner medullary AQP2 (60 +/- 7%) as well as in p-AQP2 abundance (17 +/- 6%) in nifedipine-treated rats. In contrast, whole kidney AQP3 abundance was significantly increased (219 +/- 28%). Of potential importance in modulating AQP2 levels, the abundance of CaR in the inner medulla was significantly increased (295 +/- 25%) in nifedipine-treated rats. Nifedipine treatment was also associated with increased urinary sodium excretion. Consistent with this, semiquantitative immunoblotting revealed significant reductions in the abundance of proximal tubule Na(+) transporters: NHE-3 (3 +/- 1%), NaPi-2 (53 +/- 12%), and Na-K-ATPase (74 +/- 5%). In contrast, the abundance of the distal tubule Na-Cl cotransporter (TSC) was markedly increased (240 +/- 29%), whereas BSC-1 in the thick ascending limb was not altered. In conclusion, 1) increased urine output and reduced urinary concentration in nifedipine-treated-rats may, in part, be due to downregulation of AQP2 and p-AQP2 levels; 2) CaR might be involved in the regulation of water reabsorption in the inner medulla collecting duct; 3) reduced expression of proximal tubule Na(+) transporters (NHE-3, NaPi-2, and Na, K-ATPase) may be involved in the increased urinary sodium excretion; and 4) increase in TSC expression may occur as a compensatory mechanism.  相似文献

Polyol determination along the rat nephron   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The polyols sorbitol and inositol were determined in single freshly microdissected tubule segments of rat kidney. Twenty different structures were separated from six different kidney zones reaching from cortex to papillary tip. Picomol amounts of sorbitol and inositol were quantitated by use of an enzymatic bioluminescence procedure. Experimental conditions (700 mosmol/kg, 4 degrees C) were chosen to assure constant polyol concentrations over 3 h dissection period. Sorbitol exhibited a concentration gradient in the collecting duct system from the outer/inner medullary border (3.9 +/- 0.5 pmol/mm) to the papillary tip (78.8 +/- 6.9 pmol/mm). In the same region descending and ascending limbs of Henle's loop contained 1.5 +/- 0.5 to 5.3 +/- 1.6 pmol/mm and 2.5 +/- 0.8 to 8.35 +/- 1.5 pmol/mm, respectively. In contrast, all outer medullary and cortical structures had lower sorbitol concentrations. Inositol amounts increased continuously in the collecting duct from cortex (5.3 +/- 0.5 pmol/mm) to inner medulla (30.7 +/- 3.8 pmol/mm). This polyol was also found in thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (6.2 +/- 1.1 pmol/mm in cortex to 11.2 +/- 1.4 pmol/mm in outer medulla) and in proximal tubules (5.6 +/- 1.2 pmol/mm in S1 and 4.5 +/- 1.5 pmol/mm in S3). When related to cellular volume measured by planimetry, intracellular sorbitol concentration was calculated to be 51 mmol/l in papillary collecting duct and inositol 28 mmol/l in outer medullary thick ascending limb cells. These data confirm the role of sorbitol in the renal concentrating process in papilla. Inositol seems to have additional function in thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and the proximal tubule.  相似文献

Previous work from our laboratory has demonstrated that the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) expresses a large amount of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity. The present study was designed to characterize the transport of NOS substrate, L-arginine, in a suspension of bulk-isolated IMCD cells from the Sprague-Dawley rat kidney. Biochemical transport studies demonstrated an L-arginine transport system in IMCD cells that was saturable and Na(+) independent (n = 6). L-Arginine uptake by IMCD cells was inhibited by the cationic amino acids L-lysine, L-homoarginine, and L-ornithine (10 mmol/l each) and unaffected by the neutral amino acids L-leucine, L-serine, and L-glutamine. Both L-ornithine (n = 6) and L-lysine (n = 6) inhibited NOS enzymatic activity in a dose-dependent manner in IMCD cells, supporting the important role of L-arginine transport for NO production by this tubular segment. Furthermore, RT-PCR of microdissected IMCD confirmed the presence of cationic amino acid transporter CAT1 mRNA, whereas CAT2A, CAT2B, and CAT3 were not detected. These results indicate that L-arginine uptake by IMCD cells occurs via system y(+), is encoded by CAT1, and may participate in the regulation of NO production in this renal segment.  相似文献

Studies were carried out to define antigenic characteristics of the rabbit renal collecting duct. Renal papillae of adult rabbits were homogenized, centrifuged, and the 600 X g pellet was extracted with 0.5% Triton X-100 in the presence of 1 M NaCl. The crude extract was fractionated on an anion exchange column (DEAE cellulose). A fraction enriched in acidic proteins that co-purified with a radioactive 150 kd glycoprotein from cultured collecting duct cells (Minuth 1982), was used for immunization of guinea pigs. The antiserum shows the following characteristics as revealed by indirect immunofluorescence on the rabbit kidney: 1) Among all tubular epithelial cells only principal cells of the collecting duct and the connecting tubule cell show immunoreactivity. 2) The antiserum decorates the epithelial-interstitial interface of the whole collecting duct as well as of connecting tubule and thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. 3) There is immunoreactivity of interstitial fibers throughout the kidney. 4) Epithelial cells in a variety of other organs in rabbit did not react with the antiserum. Our data demonstrate an antigenic distinction of both, the connecting tubule cell and the principal cell, discriminating these cells from other tubular epithelial cells including the intercalated cells of the collecting duct system. Furthermore, our findings point to a heterogeneity along the distal nephron with respect to the constituents of the epithelial-interstitial interface.  相似文献

We examined the distribution of gamma-aminobutyric acid-like immunoreactivity (GABA-LI) in the rat kidney by light and electron microscopy. In vibratome sections, GABA-LI was present in both the renal medulla and cortex. The inner stripe of the outer medulla was most heavily and almost homogeneously labeled, whereas GABA-LI in the cortex was mainly confined only to some tubules. GABA-positive structures involved the epithelial cells of the thin and the thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle, the connecting tubules, and the collecting ducts. In GABA-positive connecting tubules and collecting ducts the immunoreactivity was present in the cytoplasm of about half of the epithelial cells. As revealed by electron microscopy, the labeled cells in the collecting tubules were the light (principal) cells. No GABA-LI occurred in neuronal structures. These findings are consistent with the presence of a non-neuronal GABA system in the rat kidney. Furthermore, the specific distribution of GABA in the tubular epithelium suggests a functional significance of this amino acid in tubular transport processes.  相似文献

Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are widely used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, their use is complicated by systemic fluid retention. Along the nephron, the pharmacological target of TZDs, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma, encoded by Pparg), is most abundant in the collecting duct. Here we show that mice treated with TZDs experience early weight gain from increased total body water. Weight gain was blocked by the collecting duct-specific diuretic amiloride and was also prevented by deletion of Pparg from the collecting duct, using Pparg (flox/flox) mice. Deletion of collecting duct Pparg decreased renal Na(+) avidity and increased plasma aldosterone. Treating cultured collecting ducts with TZDs increased amiloride-sensitive Na(+) absorption and Scnn1g mRNA (encoding the epithelial Na(+) channel ENaCgamma) expression through a PPARgamma-dependent pathway. These studies identify Scnn1g as a PPARgamma target gene in the collecting duct. Activation of this pathway mediates fluid retention associated with TZDs, and suggests amiloride might provide a specific therapy.  相似文献

Principal cell epithelium of renal collecting duct from neonatal rabbit kidney was cultured in the presence of aldosterone (1 x 10(-6) M) and arginine vasopressin (AVP; 1 x 10(-6) M) for 10 days to investigate, by immunohistochemical methods using specific monoclonal antibodies, whether the hormones influence the expression and insertion of plasma membrane proteins. The experiments demonstrated that aldosterone alone or aldosterone plus AVP significantly increased the number of epithelial cells reacting at the luminal and lateral plasma membrane with the antibodies CD 2 and 3, specific for renal collecting duct, as we have shown in the kidney. In cultures treated with aldosterone and aldosterone plus AVP, nearly all epithelial cells were labelled by the antibodies, while controls or AVP treatment showed 41% and 24% unreactive cells, respectively. These findings were complemented with electrophysiological experiments, in which epithelia pretreated by aldosterone or aldosterone plus AVP showed significantly hyperpolarized transepithelial voltage (Vte) and higher resistance (Rte) than controls or AVP-treated specimens. The experiments demonstrated that chronic administration of aldosterone or of aldosterone plus AVP to increase Na+-transport was paralleled by the appearance of collecting-duct-specific proteins in the epithelium. Consequently, this result indicates that aldosterone influences the functional maturity of the cultured epithelium.  相似文献

During renal development the cells in the medulla are exposed to elevated and variable interstitial osmolality. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a major molecular chaperone and plays an important role in the protection of cells in the renal medulla from high osmolality. The purpose of this study was to establish the time of immunolocalization and distribution of HSP70 in developing and adult rat kidney. In addition, changes in HSP70 immunolocalization following the infusion of furosemide were investigated. In adult animals, the HSP70 was expressed in the medullary thin ascending limb of Henle's loop (ATL) and inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). In developing kidney, HSP70 immunoreactivity was first detected in the IMCD of the papillary tip on postnatal day 1. From four to 14 days of age, HSP70 was detected in the ATL after transformation from thick ascending limb, beginning at the papillary tip and ascending to the border between the outer and inner medulla. The immunolocalization of HSP70 in both the ATL and IMCD gradually increased during two weeks. The gradual increase in HSP70 was associated with an increase in its mRNA abundance. However, furosemide infusion resulted in significantly reduced HSP70 immunolocalization in the IMCD and ATL. These data demonstrated that the expression of HSP70 was closely correlated with changes in interstitial osmolality during the development of the kidney. We suggest that HSP70 protects ATL and IMCD cells in the inner medulla from the stress of high osmolality and may be involved in the transformation of the ATL of the long loop of Henle during renal development.  相似文献

In the present study, we were particularly interested in distinguishing specific patterns of structural and functional proteins in the collecting duct system of neonatal and adult kidneys and in cultured renal collecting duct epithelia in order to ascertain the degree of differentiation in the cultures. We studied the distribution of specific renal collecting duct cell markers using morphological, immunohistochemical and biochemical procedures. Cultured renal collecting duct epithelium undergoes maturation in vitro. Examples of morphological differentiation include the appearance of cilia and microvilli at the apical cell pole, and a basement membrane at the basal aspect of the epithelium. Tight junctions with five to seven strands separate the wide intercellular spaces from the apical cell surface. Physiological maturation from a 'leaky' to a 'tight' epithelium is evident from the acquisition of the alpha-subunit of Na/K-ATPase and the development of a high transepithelial potential difference and resistance. Biochemical differentiation is revealed by the expression of specific proteins. The simple-epithelium cytokeratins, PKK1 and PKK2, which are typical intracellular-matrix proteins of mature collecting duct epithelium, maintain the same distribution in cell culture as in neonatal and adult kidneys. An indicator of maturation in vitro is the expression of the collecting duct-specific proteins, PCD2 and PCD3. Newly developed monoclonal antibodies against these antigens reacted similarly with cultured cells and cells of the mature collecting duct system, but they did not label the embryonic ampullae in the cortex of neonatal rabbit kidneys. In contrast, a third collecting duct-specific protein, PCD1, is not expressed by the cultured cells, which indicates the retention of an embryonic characteristic in vitro. Embryonic collecting duct ampullae of the neonatal kidney in situ contain laminin during their development. Laminin is, however, absent in cultured collecting duct epithelium. Biochemical stimulation of the adenylate cyclase system by arginine vasopressin resulted in a twofold stimulation of the enzyme activity. This degree of stimulation is similar to that found in maturing kidneys of neonatal rabbits and indicates another embryonic feature of the cultures.  相似文献

Voltage-gated Na(+) channel currents (I(Na)) are expressed in several types of smooth muscle cells. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the expression of I(Na), its functional role, pathophysiology in cultured human (hASMCs) and rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (rASMCs), and its association with vascular intimal hyperplasia. In whole cell voltage clamp, I(Na) was observed at potential positive to -40 mV, was blocked by tetrodotoxin (TTX), and replacing extracellular Na(+) with N-methyl-d-glucamine in cultured hASMCs. In contrast to native aorta, cultured hASMCs strongly expressed SCN9A encoding Na(V)1.7, as determined by quantitative RT-PCR. I(Na) was abolished by the treatment with SCN9A small-interfering (si)RNA (P < 0.01). TTX and SCN9A siRNA significantly inhibited cell migration (P < 0.01, respectively) and horseradish peroxidase uptake (P < 0.01, respectively). TTX also significantly reduced the secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-2 6 and 12 h after the treatment (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively). However, neither TTX nor siRNA had any effect on cell proliferation. L-type Ca(2+) channel current was recorded, and I(Na) was not observed in freshly isolated rASMCs, whereas TTX-sensitive I(Na) was recorded in cultured rASMCs. Quantitative RT-PCR and immunostaining for Na(V)1.7 revealed the prominent expression of SCN9A in cultured rASMCs and aorta 48 h after balloon injury but not in native aorta. In conclusion, these studies show that I(Na) is expressed in cultured and diseased conditions but not in normal aorta. The Na(V)1.7 plays an important role in cell migration, endocytosis, and secretion. Na(V)1.7 is also expressed in aorta after balloon injury, suggesting a potential role for Na(V)1.7 in the progression of intimal hyperplasia.  相似文献
