Abstract: | The pig kidney cell line, LLC-PK1, exhibits rheogenic d-glucose coupled transepithelial Na+ transport that is inhibited by phlorizin. By measuring the difference in initial rates of influx of 86Rb+ with and without coupled Na+ transport, we can demonstrate an 86Rb+ uptake linked to Na+ transport. The simultaneous determination of phlorizin-inhibited Na coupled d-3H]glucose uptake and 86Rb+ influx allows calculation of an Na+/Rb+ stoichiometry that is consistent with an electrogenic Na+ for Rb+ exchange. |
