The bumetanide-sensitive
Na+:K+:2Cl cotransporter
(BSC1) is the major pathway for salt reabsorption in the apical
membrane of the mammalian thick ascending limb of Henle. Three isoforms
of the cotransporter, known as A, B, and F, exhibit axial expression along the thick ascending limb. We report here a functional comparison of the three isoforms from mouse kidney. When expressed in
Xenopus oocytes the mBSC1-A isoform showed higher capacity
of transport, with no difference in the amount of surface expression.
Kinetic characterization revealed divergent affinities for the three
cotransported ions. The observed EC50 values for
Na+, K+, and Cl were 5.0 ± 3.9, 0.96 ± 0.16, and 22.2 ± 4.8 mM for
mBSC1-A; 3.0 ± 0.6, 0.76 ± 0.07, and 11.6 ± 0.7 mM for mBSC1-B; and 20.6 ± 7.2, 1.54 ± 0.16, and 29.2 ± 2.1 mM for mBSC1-F, respectively. Bumetanide sensitivity was higher in mBSC1-B compared with the mBSC1-A
and mBSC1-F isoforms. All three transporters were partially inhibited by hypotonicity but to different extents. The cell
swelling-induced inhibition profile was mBSC1-F > mBSC1-B > mBSC1-A.
The function of the Na+:K+:2Cl
cotransporter was not affected by extracellular pH or by the addition
of metolazone, 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid
(DIDS), or
R(+)-[(2-n-butyl-6,7-dichloro-2-cyclopentyl-2,3-dihydro-1-oxo-1-H-indenyl-5-yl)-oxy]acetic acid (DIOA) to the extracellular medium. In contrast, exposure of
oocytes to HgCl2 before the uptake period reduced the
activity of the cotransporter. The effect of HgCl2 was
dose-dependent, and mBSC1-A and mBSC1-B exhibited higher
affinity than mBSC1-F. Overall, the functional comparison of the murine
apical renal-specific Na+:K+:2Cl
cotransporter isoforms A, B, and F reveals important functional, pharmacological, and kinetic differences, with both physiological and
structural implications.
