Abstract
Piezo1 is an essential mechanosensitive transduction ion channel in mammals. Its unique structure makes it capable of converting mechanical cues into electrical and biological signals, modulating biological and (patho)physiological processes in a wide variety of cells. There is increasing evidence demonstrating that the piezo1 channel plays a vital role in renal physiology and disease conditions. This review summarizes the current evidence on the structure and properties of Piezo1, gating modulation, and pharmacological characteristics, with special focus on the distribution and (patho)physiological significance of Piezo1 in the kidney, which may provide insights into potential treatment targets for renal diseases involving this ion channel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is a recognized global health challenge that places a considerable disease burden on countries. Although there has been some progress in the study of sepsis, the mortality rate of sepsis remains high. The relationship between serum osmolality and the prognosis of patients with sepsis is unclear. METHOD Patients with sepsis who met the criteria in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database were included in the study. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were determined using multivariable Cox regression. The relationship between serum osmolality and the 28-day mortality risk in patients with sepsis was investigated using curve fitting, and inflection points were calculated. RESULTS A total of 13,219 patients with sepsis were enrolled in the study; the mean age was 65.1 years, 56.9 % were male, and the 28-day mortality rate was 18.8 %. After adjusting for covariates, the risk of 28-day mortality was elevated by 99% (HR 1.99, 95%CI 1.74-2.28) in the highest quintile of serum osmolality (Q5 >303.21) and by 59% (HR 1.59, 95%CI 1.39-1.83) in the lowest quintile (Q1 ≤285.80), as compared to the reference quintile (Q3 291.38-296.29). The results of the curve fitting showed a U-shaped relationship between serum osmolality and the risk of 28-day mortality, with an inflection point of 286.9 mmol/L. CONCLUSION There is a U-shaped relationship between serum osmolality and the 28-day mortality risk in patients with sepsis. Higher or lower serum osmolality is associated with an increased risk of mortality in patients with sepsis. Patients with sepsis have a lower risk of mortality when their osmolality is 285.80-296.29 mmol/L.

Abstract
Pendrin (SLC26A4) is an anion exchanger from the SLC26 transporter family which is mutated in human patients affected by Pendred syndrome, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by sensoneurinal deafness and hypothyroidism. Pendrin is also expressed in the kidney where it mediates the exchange of internal HCO3- for external Cl- at the apical surface of renal type B and non-A non-B-intercalated cells. Studies using pendrin knockout mice have first revealed that pendrin is essential for renal base excretion. However, subsequent studies have demonstrated that pendrin also controls chloride absorption by the distal nephron and that this mechanism is critical for renal NaCl balance. Furthermore, pendrin has been shown to control vascular volume and ultimately blood pressure. This review summarizes the current knowledge about how pendrin is linking renal acid-base regulation to blood pressure control.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Fluid retention or congestion is a major cause of symptoms, poor quality of life, and adverse outcome in patients with heart failure (HF). Despite advances in disease-modifying therapy, the mainstay of treatment for congestion-loop diuretics-has remained largely unchanged for 50 years. In these two articles (part I: loop diuretics and part II: combination therapy), we will review the history of diuretic treatment and the current trial evidence for different diuretic strategies and explore potential future directions of research. RECENT FINDINGS We will assess recent trials including DOSE, TRANSFORM, ADVOR, CLOROTIC, OSPREY-AHF, and PUSH-AHF amongst others, and assess how these may influence current practice and future research. There are few data on which to base diuretic therapy in clinical practice. The most robust evidence is for high dose loop diuretic treatment over low-dose treatment for patients admitted to hospital with HF, yet this is not reflected in guidelines. There is an urgent need for more and better research on different diuretic strategies in patients with HF.

Abstract
Excess dietary salt (NaCl) intake is strongly correlated with cardiovascular disease and is a major contributing factor to the pathogenesis of hypertension. NaCl-sensitive hypertension is a multisystem disorder that involves renal dysfunction, vascular abnormalities, and neurogenically-mediated increases in peripheral resistance. Despite a major research focus on organ systems and these effector mechanisms causing NaCl-induced increases in arterial blood pressure, relatively less research has been directed at elucidating how NaCl is sensed by various tissues to elicit these downstream effects. The purpose of this review is to discuss how the brain, kidney, and gastrointestinal tract sense NaCl including key cell types, the role of NaCl versus osmolality, and the underlying molecular and electrochemical mechanisms.

Abstract
Mitochondria play a key role in kidney physiology and pathology. They produce ATP to fuel energy-demanding water and solute reabsorption processes along the nephron. Moreover, mitochondria contribute to cellular health by the regulation of autophagy, (oxidative) stress responses, and apoptosis. Mitochondrial abundance is particularly high in cortical segments, including proximal and distal convoluted tubules. Dysfunction of the mitochondria has been described for tubulopathies such as Fanconi, Gitelman, and Bartter-like syndromes and renal tubular acidosis. In addition, mitochondrial cytopathies often affect renal (tubular) tissues, such as in Kearns-Sayre and Leigh syndromes. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which mitochondrial dysfunction results in renal tubular diseases are only scarcely being explored. This review provides an overview of mitochondrial dysfunction in the development and progression of kidney tubulopathies. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need for further mechanistic investigations to identify links between mitochondrial function and renal electrolyte reabsorption.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nuclear receptor corepressor 1(NCOR1) is reported to play crucial roles in cardiovascular diseases, but its function in the kidney has remained obscure. OBJECTIVE We aim to elucidate the role of collecting duct NCOR1 in blood pressure (BP) regulation. METHODS AND RESULTS Collecting duct NCOR1 knockout (KO) mice manifested increased BP and aggravated vascular and renal injury in an angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertensive model. KO mice also showed significantly higher BP than littermate control (LC) mice in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt model. Further study showed that collecting duct NCOR1 deficiency aggravated volume and sodium retention after saline challenge. Among the sodium transporter in the collecting duct, the expression of the three epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) subunits was markedly increased in the renal medulla of KO mice. Consistently, BP in Ang II-infused KO mice decreased significantly to the similar level as those in LC mice after amiloride treatment. ChIP analysis revealed that NCOR1 deficiency increased the enrichment of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) on the promoters of the three ENaC genes in primary inner medulla collecting duct (IMCD) cells. Co-IP results showed interaction between NCOR1 and MR, and luciferase reporter results demonstrated that NCOR1 inhibited the transcriptional activity of MR. Knockdown of MR eliminated the increased ENaC expression in primary IMCD cells isolated from KO mice. Finally, BP was significantly decreased in Ang II-infused KO mice after treatment of MR antagonist spironolactone and the difference between LC and KO mice was abolished. CONCLUSIONS NCOR1 interacts with MR to control ENaC activity in the collecting duct and to regulate sodium reabsorption and ultimately BP. Targeting NCOR1 might be a promising tactic to interrupt the volume and sodium retention of the collecting duct in hypertension.

Abstract
The teleology of sex differences has been argued since at least as early as Aristotle's controversial Generation of Animals more than 300 years BC, which reflects the sex bias of the time to contemporary readers. Although the question "why are the sexes different" remains a topic of debate in the present day in metaphysics, the recent emphasis on sex comparison in research studies has led to the question "how are the sexes different" being addressed in health science through numerous observational studies in both health and disease susceptibility, including blood pressure regulation and hypertension. These efforts have resulted in better understanding of differences in males and females at the molecular level that partially explain their differences in vascular function and renal sodium handling and hence blood pressure and the consequential cardiovascular and kidney disease risks in hypertension. This review focuses on clinical studies comparing differences between men and women in blood pressure over the life span and response to dietary sodium and highlights experimental models investigating sexual dimorphism in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, vascular, sympathetic nervous, and immune systems, endothelin, the major renal sodium transporters/exchangers/channels, and the impact of sex hormones on these systems in blood pressure homeostasis. Understanding the mechanisms governing sex differences in blood pressure regulation could guide novel therapeutic approaches in a sex-specific manner to lower cardiovascular risks in hypertension and advance personalized medicine.

Abstract
There is growing consensus that under physiological conditions, collecting duct H+ secretion is independent of epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) activity. We have recently shown that the direct ENaC inhibitor benzamil acutely impairs H+ excretion by blocking renal H+-K+-ATPase. However, the question remains whether inhibition of ENaC per se causes alterations in renal H+ excretion. To revisit this question, we studied the effect of the antibiotic trimethoprim (TMP), which is well known to cause K+ retention by direct ENaC inhibition. The acute effect of TMP (5 µg/g body wt) was assessed in bladder-catheterized mice, allowing real-time measurement of urinary pH, electrolyte, and acid excretion. Dietary K+ depletion was used to increase renal H+-K+-ATPase activity. In addition, the effect of TMP was investigated in vitro using pig gastric H+-K+-ATPase-enriched membrane vesicles. TMP acutely increased natriuresis and decreased kaliuresis, confirming its ENaC-inhibiting property. Under control diet conditions, TMP had no effect on urinary pH or acid excretion. Interestingly, K+ depletion unmasked an acute urine alkalizing effect of TMP. This finding was corroborated by in vitro experiments showing that TMP inhibits H+-K+-ATPase activity, albeit at much higher concentrations than benzamil. In conclusion, under control diet conditions, TMP inhibited ENaC function without changing urinary H+ excretion. This finding further supports the hypothesis that the inhibition of ENaC per se does not impair H+ excretion in the collecting duct. Moreover, TMP-induced urinary alkalization in animals fed a low-K+ diet highlights the importance of renal H+-K+-ATPase-mediated H+ secretion in states of K+ depletion.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The antibiotic trimethoprim (TMP) often mediates K+ retention and metabolic acidosis. We suggest a revision of the underlying mechanism that causes metabolic acidosis. Our results indicate that TMP-induced metabolic acidosis is secondary to epithelial Na+ channel-dependent K+ retention. Under control dietary conditions, TMP does not per se inhibit collecting duct H+ secretion. These findings add further argument against a physiologically relevant voltage-dependent mechanism of collecting duct H+ excretion.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is caused by a sudden loss of renal function, resulting in the build-up of waste products and a significant increase in mortality and morbidity. It is commonly diagnosed in critically ill patients, with its occurrence estimated at up to 50% in patients hospitalized in the intensive critical unit. Despite ongoing efforts, the death rate associated with AKI has remained high over the past half-century. Thus, it is critical to investigate novel therapy options for preventing the epidemic. Many studies have found that inflammation and Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4) activation have a significant role in the pathogenesis of AKI. Noteworthy, challenges in the search for efficient pharmacological therapy for AKI have arisen due to the multifaceted origin and complexity of the clinical history of people with the disease. This article focuses on kidney injury's epidemiology, risk factors, and pathophysiological processes. Specifically, it focuses on the role of TLRs especially type 4 in disease development.

Abstract
Epithelial Na+ channels (ENaCs) control extracellular fluid volume by facilitating Na+ absorption across transporting epithelia. In vitro studies showed that Cys-palmitoylation of the γENaC subunit is a major regulator of channel activity. We tested whether γ subunit palmitoylation sites are necessary for channel function in vivo by generating mice lacking the palmitoylated cysteines (γC33A,C41A) using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. ENaCs in dissected kidney tubules from γC33A,C41A mice had reduced open probability compared with wild-type (WT) littermates maintained on either standard or Na+-deficient diets. Male mutant mice also had higher aldosterone levels than WT littermates following Na+ restriction. However, γC33A,C41A mice did not have reduced amiloride-sensitive Na+ currents in the distal colon or benzamil-induced natriuresis compared to WT mice. We identified a second, larger conductance cation channel in the distal nephron with biophysical properties distinct from ENaC. The activity of this channel was higher in Na+-restricted γC33A,C41A versus WT mice and was blocked by benzamil, providing a possible compensatory mechanism for reduced prototypic ENaC function. We conclude that γ subunit palmitoylation sites are required for prototypic ENaC activity in vivo but are not necessary for amiloride/benzamil-sensitive Na+ transport in the distal nephron or colon.

Abstract
The proximal tubule (PT) is a nephron segment that is responsible for the majority of solute and water reabsorption in the kidney. Each of its sub-segments have specialized functions; however, little is known about the genes and proteins that determine the oxidative phosphorylation capacity of the PT sub-segments. This information is critical to understanding kidney function and will provide a comprehensive landscape of renal cell adaptations to injury, physiologic stressors, and development. This study analyzed three immortalized murine renal cell lines (PT S1, S2, and S3 segments) for protein content and compared them to a murine fibroblast cell line. All three proximal tubule cell lines generate ATP predominantly by oxidative phosphorylation while the fibroblast cell line is glycolytic. The proteomic data demonstrates that the most significant difference in proteomic signatures between the cell lines are proteins known to be localized in the nucleus followed by mitochondrial proteins. Mitochondrial metabolic substrate utilization assays were performed using the proximal tubule cell lines to determine substrate utilization kinetics thereby providing a physiologic context to the proteomic dataset. This data will allow researchers to study differences in nephron-specific cell lines, between epithelial and fibroblast cells, and between actively respiring cells and glycolytic cells. SIGNIFICANCE: Proteomic analysis of proteins expressed in immortalized murine renal proximal tubule cells was compared to a murine fibroblast cell line proteome. The proximal tubule segment specific cell lines: S1, S2 and S3 are all grown under conditions whereby the cells generate ATP by oxidative phosphorylation while the fibroblast cell line utilizes anaerobic glycolysis for ATP generation. The proteomic studies allow for the following queries: 1) comparisons between the proximal tubule segment specific cell lines, 2) comparisons between polarized epithelia and fibroblasts, 3) comparison between cells employing oxidative phosphorylation versus anaerobic glycolysis and 4) comparisons between cells grown on clear versus opaque membrane supports. The data finds major differences in nuclear protein expression and mitochondrial proteins. This proteomic data set will be an important baseline dataset for investigators who need immortalized renal proximal tubule epithelial cells for their research.

Abstract
Familial hyperkalemic hypertension (FHHt), also known as Pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHAII) or Gordon syndrome is a rare Mendelian disease classically characterized by hyperkalemia, hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, and high systolic blood pressure. The most severe form of the disease is caused by autosomal dominant variants in CUL3 (Cullin 3), a critical subunit of the multimeric CUL3-RING ubiquitin ligase complex. The recent identification of a novel FHHt disease variant of CUL3 revealed intricacies within the underlying disease mechanism. When combined with studies on canonical CUL3 variant-induced FHHt, these findings further support CUL3's role in regulating renal electrolyte transport and maintaining systemic vascular tone. However, the pathophysiological effects of CUL3 variants are often accompanied by diverse systemic disturbances in addition to classical FHHt symptoms. Recent global proteomic analyses provide a rationale for these systemic disturbances, paving the way for future mechanistic studies to reveal how CUL3 variants dysregulate processes outside of the renovascular axis.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is caused by hypoxia in the renal tissue, leading to inflammation and increased migration of pathogenic cells. Studies showed that leukocytes directly sense hypoxia and respond by initiating gene transcription, encoding the 2-integrin adhesion molecules. Moreover, other mechanisms participate in hypoxia, including anemia. CKD-associated anemia is common, which induces and worsens hypoxia, contributing to CKD progression. Anemia correction can slow CKD progression, but it should be cautiously approached. In this comprehensive review, the underlying pathophysiology mechanisms and the impact of renal tissue hypoxia and anemia in CKD onset and progression will be reviewed and discussed in detail. Searching for the latest updates in PubMed Central, Medline, PubMed database, Google Scholar, and Google search engines were conducted for original studies, including cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, clinical trials, and review articles using different keywords, phrases, and texts such as "CKD progression, anemia in CKD, CKD, anemia effect on CKD progression, anemia effect on CKD progression, and hypoxia and CKD progression". Kidney tissue hypoxia and anemia have an impact on CKD onset and progression. Hypoxia causes nephron cell death, enhancing fibrosis by increasing interstitium protein deposition, inflammatory cell activation, and apoptosis. Severe anemia correction improves life quality and may delay CKD progression. Detection and avoidance of the risk factors of hypoxia prevent recurrent acute kidney injury (AKI) and reduce the CKD rate. A better understanding of kidney hypoxia would prevent AKI and CKD and lead to new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
In contrast to significant advances in the management of patients with chronic heart failure over the past few years, there has been little change in how patients with acute heart failure are treated. Symptoms and signs of fluid overload are the primary reason for hospitalization of patients who experience acute decompensation of heart failure. Intravenous loop diuretics remain the mainstay of therapy in this patient population, with a significant subset of them showing suboptimal response to these agents leading to incomplete decongestion at the time of discharge. Combination diuretic therapy, that is, using loop diuretics along with an add-on agent, is a widely applied strategy to counter renal sodium avidity through sequential blockade of sodium absorption within renal tubules. The choice of the second diuretic is affected by several factors, including the site of action, the anticipated secondary effects, and the available evidence on their efficacy and safety. While the current guidelines recommend combination diuretic therapy as a viable option to overcome suboptimal response to loop diuretics, it is also acknowledged that this strategy is not supported by strong evidence and remains an area of uncertainty. The recent publication of landmark studies has regenerated the interest in sequential nephron blockade. In this article, we provide an overview of the results of the key studies on combination diuretic therapy in the setting of acute heart failure and discuss their findings primarily with regard to the effect on renal sodium avidity and cardiorenal outcomes.

Abstract
Chloride anions are the most abundant in humans. For many years, it has been believed that chloride is simply a counterion of all other cations, ensuring the electroneutrality of the extracellular space. Recent data suggests that chloride anions possess a broad spectrum of important activities that regulate vital cellular functions. It is now evident that, apart from its contribution to the electroneutrality of the extracellular space, it acts as an osmole and contributes to extracellular and intracellular volume regulation. Its anionic charge also contributes to the generation of cell membrane potential. The most interesting action of chloride anions is their ability to regulate the activity of with-no-lysine kinases, which in turn regulate the activity of sodium chloride and potassium chloride cotransporters and govern the reabsorption of salt and excretion of potassium by nephron epithelia. Chloride anions seem to play a crucial role in cell functions, such as cell volume regulation, sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron, potassium balance, and sodium sensitivity, which lead to hypertension. All of these functions are accomplished on a molecular level via complicated metabolic pathways, many of which remain poorly defined. We attempted to elucidate some of these pathways in light of recent advances in our knowledge, obtained mainly from experimental studies.

Abstract
When sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors were first introduced a decade ago, no one expected them to have substantial effects beyond their known glucose-lowering effects, until the emergence of evidence of their robust renal and cardiovascular benefits showing that they could attenuate progression of kidney disease, irrespective of diabetes, as well as prevent the development of acute kidney injury. Still, the precise and elaborate mechanisms underlying the major organ protection of SGLT2 inhibitors remain unclear. SGLT2 inhibitors inhibit the reabsorption of sodium and glucose in the proximal tubule of the kidney and then recovers tubuloglomerular feedback, whereby SGLT2 inhibitors reduce glomerular hyperfiltration. This simple demonstration of their beneficial effects has perplexed experts in seeking more plausible and as yet undisclosed explanations for the whole effects of SGLT2 inhibitors, including metabolism reprogramming and the modulation of hypoxia, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Given that the renal benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with kidney disease but without diabetes were comparable to those seen in patients with diabetes, it may be reasonable to keep the emphasis on their hemodynamic actions. In this context, the aim of the present review is to provide a comprehensive overview of renal hemodynamics in individuals with diabetes who are treated with SGLT2 inhibitors, with a focus on natriuresis associated with the regulation of tubuloglomerular feedback and potential aquaresis. Throughout the discussion of alterations in renal sodium and water transports, particular attention will be given to the potential enhancement of adenosine and its receptors following SGLT2 inhibition.

Abstract
Heart failure is not only a global problem but also significantly limits the life prospects of these patients. The epidemiology and presentation of heart failure are intensively researched topics in cardiology. The risk factors leading to heart failure are well known; however, the real challenge is to provide effective treatments. A vicious cycle develops in heart failure of all etiologies, sooner or later compromising both cardiac and kidney functions simultaneously. This can explain the repeated hospital admissions due to decompensation and the significantly reduced quality of life. Moreover, diuretic-refractory heart failure represents a distinct challenge due to repeated hospital admissions and increased mortality. In our narrative review, we wanted to draw attention to nephrology treatment options for severe diuretic-resistant heart failure. The incremental value of peritoneal dialysis in severe heart failure and the feasibility of percutaneous peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion have been well known for many years. In contrast, the science and narrative of acute peritoneal dialysis in diuretic-resistant heart failure remains underrepresented. We believe that nephrologists are uniquely positioned to help these patients by providing acute peritoneal dialysis to reduce hospitalization dependency and increase their quality of life.

Abstract
Dietary salt (NaCl) is essential to an organism's survival. However, today's diets are dominated by excessive salt intake, which significantly impacts individual and population health. High salt intake is closely linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD), especially hypertension, through a number of well-studied mechanisms. Emerging evidence indicates that salt overconsumption may also be associated with metabolic disorders. In this review, we first summarize recent updates on the mechanisms of salt-induced CVD, the effects of salt reduction and the use of salt substitution as a therapy. Next, we focus on how high salt intake can impact metabolism and energy balance, describing the mechanisms through which this occurs, including leptin resistance, the overproduction of fructose and ghrelin, insulin resistance and altered hormonal factors. A further influence on metabolism worth noting is the reported role of salt in inducing thermogenesis and increasing body temperature, leading to an increase in energy expenditure. While this result could be viewed as a positive metabolic effect because it promotes a negative energy balance to combat obesity, caution must be taken with this frame of thinking given the deleterious consequences of chronic high salt intake on cardiovascular health. Nevertheless, this review highlights the importance of salt as a noncaloric nutrient in regulating whole-body energy homeostasis. Through this review, we hope to provide a scientific framework for future studies to systematically address the metabolic impacts of dietary salt and salt replacement treatments. In addition, we hope to form a foundation for future clinical trials to explore how these salt-induced metabolic changes impact obesity development and progression, and to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms that drive these changes, with the aim of developing novel therapeutics for obesity and CVD.

Abstract
Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder in clinical practice, which may lead to life-threatening complications. Several lines of evidence suggest that hyponatremia is associated not only with significant increases in length of stay, cost, and financial burden, but also with increased morbidity and mortality. Hyponatremia is also considered to be a negative prognostic factor in patients with heart failure and cancer. Although multiple therapeutic methods are available for treating hyponatremia, most have some limitations, such as poor compliance, rapid correction of serum Na+, other negative side effects and high cost. Given these limitations, identifying novel therapies for hyponatremia is essential. Recent clinical studies have shown that SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT 2i) significantly increased serum Na+ levels and were well tolerated by patients who underwent this treatment. Therefore, oral administration of SGLT 2i appears to be an effective treatment for hyponatremia. This article will briefly review the etiology of hyponatremia and integrated control of sodium within the kidney, current therapies for hyponatremia, potential mechanisms and efficacy of SGLT 2i for hyponatremia, and the benefits in cardiovascular, cancer, and kidney disease by regulating sodium and water balance.

Abstract
Key Points 23Na MRI allows us to noninvasively assess sodium distribution. We propose the utility of 23Na MRI for evaluating functional changes in diabetic kidney disease and not as a marker reflecting structural damage. 23Na MRI may be an early marker for structures beyond the glomeruli, enabling prompt intervention with novel efficacious tubule-targeting therapies. Background Sodium magnetic resonance imaging can noninvasively assess sodium distribution, specifically sodium concentration in the countercurrent multiplication system in the kidney, which forms a sodium concentration gradient from the cortex to the medulla, enabling efficient water reabsorption. This study aimed to investigate whether sodium magnetic resonance imaging can detect changes in sodium concentrations under normal conditions in mice and in disease models, such as a mouse model with diabetes mellitus. Methods We performed sodium and proton nuclear magnetic resonance imaging using a 9.4-T vertical standard-bore superconducting magnet. Results A condition of deep anesthesia, with widened breath intervals, or furosemide administration in 6-week-old C57BL/6JJcl mice showed a decrease in both tissue sodium concentrations in the medulla and sodium concentration gradients from the cortex to the medulla. Furthermore, sodium magnetic resonance imaging revealed reductions in the sodium concentration in the medulla and in the gradient from the cortex to the medulla in BKS.Cg-Leprdb+/+ Leprdb/Jcl mice at very early type 2 diabetes mellitus stages compared with corresponding control BKS.Cg-m+/m+/Jcl mice. Conclusions The kidneys of BKS.Cg-Leprdb+/+ Leprdb/Jcl mice aged 6 weeks showed impairments in the countercurrent multiplication system. We propose the utility of 23Na MRI for evaluating functional changes in diabetic kidney disease and not as a marker that reflects structural damage. Thus, 23Na MRI may be a potentially very early marker for structures beyond the glomerulus; this may prompt intervention with novel efficacious tubule-targeting therapies.

Abstract
The gills are the major organ for Na+ uptake in teleosts. It was proposed that freshwater (FW) teleosts adopt Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (Nhe3) as the primary transporter for Na+ uptake and Na+-Cl− co-transporter (Ncc) as the backup transporter. However, convincing molecular physiological evidence to support the role of Ncc in branchial Na+ uptake is still lacking due to the limitations of functional assays in the gills. Thus, this study aimed to reveal the role of branchial Ncc in Na+ uptake with an in vivo detection platform (scanning ion-selective electrode technique, SIET) that has been recently established in fish gills. First, we identified that Ncc2-expressing cells in zebrafish gills are a specific subtype of ionocyte (NCC ionocytes) by using single-cell transcriptome analysis and immunofluorescence. After a long-term low-Na+ FW exposure, zebrafish increased branchial Ncc2 expression and the number of NCC ionocytes and enhanced gill Na+ uptake capacity. Pharmacological treatments further suggested that Na+ is indeed taken up by Ncc, in addition to Nhe, in the gills. These findings reveal the uptake roles of both branchial Ncc and Nhe under FW and shed light on osmoregulatory physiology in adult fish.

Abstract
AIM Two-pore channels (TPCs) constitute a small family of cation channels expressed in endo-lysosomal compartments. TPCs have been characterized as critical elements controlling Ca2+ -mediated vesicular membrane fusion and thereby regulating endo-lysosomal vesicle trafficking. Exo- and endocytotic trafficking and lysosomal degradation are major mechanisms of adaption of epithelial transport. A prime example of highly regulated epithelial transport is the tubular system of the kidney. We therefore studied the localization of TPC protein 1 (TPC1) in the kidney and its functional role in the dynamic regulation of tubular transport. METHODS Immunohistochemistry in combination with tubular markers were used to investigate TPC1 expression in proximal and distal tubules. The excretion of phosphate and ammonium, as well as urine volume and pH were studied in vivo, in response to dynamic challenges induced by bolus injection of parathyroid hormone or acid-base transitions via consecutive infusion of NaCl, Na2 CO3 , and NH4 Cl. RESULTS In TPC1-deficient mice, the PTH-induced rise in phosphate excretion was prolonged and exaggerated, and its recovery delayed in comparison with wildtype littermates. In the acid-base transition experiment, TPC1-deficient mice showed an identical rise in phosphate excretion in response to Na2 CO3 compared with wildtypes, but a delayed NH4Cl-induced recovery. Ammonium-excretion decreased with Na2 CO3 , and increased with NH4 Cl, but without differences between genotypes. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that TPC1 is expressed subapically in the proximal but not distal tubule and plays an important role in the dynamic adaptation of proximal tubular phosphate reabsorption towards enhanced, but not reduced absorption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-23 magnetic resonance imaging (23Na MRI) allows non-invasive assessment of tissue sodium concentration ([Na+]). Age and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are associated with increased tissue [Na+] in adults, but limited information is available pertaining to children and adolescents. We hypothesized that pediatric CKD is associated with altered tissue [Na+] compared to healthy controls. METHODS This was a case-control exploratory study on healthy children and adults and pediatric CKD patients. Study participants underwent an investigational visit, blood/urine biochemistry, and leg 23Na MRI for tissue [Na+] quantification (whole leg, skin, soleus muscle). CKD was stratified by etiology and patients' tissue [Na+] was compared against healthy controls by computing individual Z-scores. An absolute Z-score > 1.96 was deemed to deviate significantly from the mean of healthy controls. Pearson correlation was used to compute the associations between tissue [Na+] and kidney function. RESULTS A total of 36 pediatric participants (17 healthy, 19 CKD) and 19 healthy adults completed the study. Healthy adults had significantly higher tissue [Na+] compared with pediatric groups; conversely, no significant differences were found between healthy children/adolescents and CKD patients. Four patients with glomerular disease and one kidney transplant recipient due to atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome had elevated whole-leg [Na+] Z-scores. Reduced whole-leg [Na+] Z-scores were found in two patients with tubular disorders (Fanconi syndrome, proximal-distal renal tubular acidosis). All tissue [Na+] measures were significantly associated with proteinuria and hypoalbuminemia. CONCLUSIONS Depending on etiology, pediatric CKD was associated with either increased (glomerular disease) or reduced (tubular disorders) tissue [Na+] compared with healthy controls. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetazolamide inhibits proximal tubular sodium reabsorption and improved decongestion in the ADVOR (Acetazolamide in Decompensated Heart Failure with Volume Overload) trial. It remains unclear whether the decongestive effects of acetazolamide differ across the spectrum of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). METHODS This is a prespecified analysis of the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled ADVOR trial that enrolled 519 patients with acute heart failure (HF), clinical signs of volume overload (eg, edema, pleural effusion, or ascites), NTproBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) >1000 ng/L, or BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide) >250 ng/mL to receive intravenous acetazolamide (500 mg once daily) or placebo in addition to standardized intravenous loop diuretics (twice that of the oral home maintenance dose). Randomization was stratified according to LVEF (≤40% or >40%). The primary end point was successful decongestion, defined as the absence of signs of volume overload within 3 days from randomization without the need for mandatory escalation of decongestive therapy because of poor urine output. RESULTS Median LVEF was 45% (25th to 75th percentile; 30% to 55%), and 43% had an LVEF ≤40%. Patients with lower LVEF were younger and more likely to be male with a higher prevalence of ischemic heart disease, higher NTproBNP, less atrial fibrillation, and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate. No interaction on the overall beneficial treatment effect of acetazolamide to the primary end point of successful decongestion (OR, 1.77 [95% CI, 1.18-2.63]; P=0.005; all P values for interaction >0.401) was found when LVEF was assessed per randomization stratum (≤40% or >40%), or as HF with reduced ejection fraction, HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction, and HF with preserved ejection fraction, or on a continuous scale. Acetazolamide resulted in improved diuretic response measured by higher cumulative diuresis and natriuresis and shortened length of stay without treatment effect modification by baseline LVEF (all P values for interaction >0.160). CONCLUSIONS When added to treatment with loop diuretics in patients with acute decompensated HF, acetazolamide improves the incidence of successful decongestion and diuretic response, and shortens length of stay without treatment effect modification by baseline LVEF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The heart failure (HF) "pandemic" is an ongoing critical issue related to the aging population. Among the new heart failure medications, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been shown to provide clinical benefit in HF patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the efficacy and safety of SGLT2i in old age patients remains uncertain. METHODS The OSHO-heart (Optimal Solution after Hospitalization in Onomichi for heart failure) is a prospective study of 213 patients aged ≥ 75 years-old hospitalized for acute decompensated HF with stage 3 to 4 CKD. The composite outcomes of HF rehospitalizations or cardiovascular death and the rate of decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were compared between the Loop (n = 76), tolvaptan (TLV) (n = 80) and SGLT2i (n = 57) groups, respectively. RESULTS During follow-up (17.2 months, median), composite of HF rehospitalization or cardiovascular death events occurred in 30 (39.5%) in Loop, 19 (23.8%) in TLV and 8 (14%) in SGLT2i groups, respectively (Log-rank: P = 0.015). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the continuation of SGLT2i (hazard ratio, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.19 to 0.78; P = 0.022) and an EF < 30% (hazard ratio, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.22 to 3.92; P = 0.009) were independently associated with the composite outcome. The rate of decline in the eGFR was significantly less in TLV and SGLT2i groups than Loop group (-1.64 vs. -1.28 vs. -5.41 ml/min/1.73 m2 per year, P = 0.007, respectively). CONCLUSIONS SGLT2i therapy might reduce the combined risk of HF hospitalizations or cardiac death and preserve a worsening renal function in old age patients with HF and CKD.

Abstract
Despite the widespread use of intravenous fluids in acute kidney injury (AKI), solid evidence is lacking. Intravenous fluids mainly improve AKI due to true hypovolaemia, which is difficult to discern at the bedside unless it is very pronounced. Empiric fluid resuscitation triggered only by elevated serum creatinine levels or oliguria is frequently misguided, especially in the presence of fluid intolerance syndromes such as increased extravascular lung water, capillary leak, intra-abdominal hypertension, and systemic venous congestion. While fluid responsiveness tests clearly identify patients who will not benefit from fluid administration (i.e. those without an increase in cardiac output), the presence of fluid responsiveness does not guarantee that fluid therapy is indicated or even safe. This review calls for more attention to the concept of fluid tolerance, incorporating it into a practical algorithm with systematic venous Doppler ultrasonography assessment to use at the bedside, thereby lowering the risk of detrimental kidney congestion in AKI.

Abstract
The kidney proximal tubule is responsible for reabsorbing water and NaCl to maintain the homeostasis of the body fluids, electrolytes, and nutrients. Thus, abnormal functioning of the renal proximal tubule can lead to life-threatening imbalances. Bisphenol A (BPA) has been used for decades as a representative chemical in household plastic products, but studies on its effects on the kidney proximal tubule are insufficient. In this study, immunocytochemical and cytotoxicity tests were performed using two- and three-dimensional human renal proximal tubular epithelial cell (hRPTEC) cultures to investigate the impact of low-dose BPA (1-10 μM) exposure. BPA was found to interfere with straight tubule formation as observed by low filamentous actin formation and reduced Na+/K+-ATPase expression in the tubules of hRPTEC 3D cultures. Similar results were observed in rat pup kidneys following oral administration of 250 mg/kg BPA. Moreover, the expression of HO-1 and 8-OHdG, key markers for oxidative stress, was increased in vitro and in vivo following BPA administration, whereas that of OAT1 and OAT, important transporters of the renal proximal tubules, was not altered. Overall, no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL)-dose BPA exposure can decrease renal function by promoting abnormal tubular formation both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, we propose that although it does not exhibit life-threatening toxicity, exposure to low levels of BPA can negatively affect homeostasis in the body by means of long-term deterioration of renal proximal tubular function in humans.

Abstract
Understanding Na+ uptake mechanisms in vertebrates has been a research priority since vertebrate ancestors were thought to originate from hyperosmotic marine habitats to the hypoosmotic freshwater system. Given the evolutionary success of osmoregulator teleosts, these freshwater conquerors from the marine habitats are reasonably considered to develop the traits of absorbing Na+ from the Na+-poor circumstances for ionic homeostasis. However, in teleosts, the loss of epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) has long been a mystery and an issue under debate in the evolution of vertebrates. In this study, we evaluate the idea that energetic efficiency in teleosts may have been improved by selection for ENaC loss and an evolved energy-saving alternative, the Na+/H+ exchangers (NHE3)-mediated Na+ uptake/NH4+ excretion machinery. The present study approaches this question from the lamprey, a pioneer invader of freshwater habitats, initially developed ENaC-mediated Na+ uptake driven by energy-consuming apical H+-ATPase (VHA) in the gills, similar to amphibian skin and external gills. Later, teleosts may have intensified ammonotelism to generate larger NH4+ outward gradients that facilitate NHE3-mediated Na+ uptake against an unfavorable Na+ gradient in freshwater without consuming additional ATP. Therefore, this study provides a fresh starting point for expanding our understanding of vertebrate ion regulation and environmental adaptation within the framework of the energy constraint concept.

Abstract
An intrinsic cellular circadian clock is located in nearly every cell of the body. The peripheral circadian clocks within the cells of the kidney contribute to the regulation of a variety of renal processes. In this review, we summarize what is currently known regarding the function, mechanism, and regulation of kidney clocks. Additionally, the effect of extrarenal physiological processes, such as endocrine and neuronal signals, on kidney function is also reviewed. Circadian rhythms in renal function are an integral part of kidney physiology, underscoring the importance of considering time of day as a key biological variable. The field of circadian renal physiology is of tremendous relevance, but with limited physiological and mechanistic information on the kidney clocks this is an area in need of extensive investigation.

Abstract
Kidney organoids derived from human or rodent pluripotent stem cells have glomerular structures and differentiated/polarized nephron segments. Although there is an increasing understanding of the patterns of expression of transcripts and proteins within kidney organoids, there is a paucity of data regarding functional protein expression, in particular on transporters that mediate the vectorial transport of solutes. Using cells derived from kidney organoids, we examined the functional expression of key ion channels that are expressed in distal nephron segments: the large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channel, the renal outer medullary K+ (ROMK, Kir1.1) channel, and the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC). RNA-sequencing analyses showed that genes encoding the pore-forming subunits of these transporters, and for BKCa channels, key accessory subunits, are expressed in kidney organoids. Expression and localization of selected ion channels was confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoblot analysis. Electrophysiological analysis showed that BKCa and ROMK channels are expressed in different cell populations. These two cell populations also expressed other unidentified Ba2+-sensitive K+ channels. BKCa expression was confirmed at a single channel level, based on its high conductance and voltage dependence of activation. We also found a population of cells expressing amiloride-sensitive ENaC currents. In summary, our results show that human kidney organoids functionally produce key distal nephron K+ and Na+ channels.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Our results show that human kidney organoids express key K+ and Na+ channels that are expressed on the apical membranes of cells in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, including the large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel, renal outer medullary K+ channel, and epithelial Na+ channel.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to investigate the functional implications of sex and species differences in the pattern of transporters along nephrons in the rat and mouse kidney, as reported by Veiras et al. (J Am Soc Nephrol 28: 3504–3517, 2017). To do so, we developed the first sex-specific computational models of epithelial water and solute transport along the nephrons from male and female mouse kidneys, and conducted simulations along with our published rat models. These models account for the sex differences in the abundance of apical and basolateral transporters, glomerular filtration rate, and tubular dimensions. Model simulations predict that 73% and 57% of filtered Na+ is reabsorbed by the proximal tubules of male and female rat kidneys, respectively. Due to their smaller transport area and lower NHE3 activity, the proximal tubules in the mouse kidney reabsorb a significantly smaller fraction of the filtered Na+, at 53% in male and only 34% in female. The lower proximal fractional Na+ reabsorption in female kidneys of both rat and mouse is due primarily to their smaller transport area, lower Na+/H+ exchanger activity, and lower claudin-2 abundance, culminating in significantly larger fractional delivery of water and Na+ to the downstream nephron segments in female kidneys. Conversely, the female distal nephron exhibits a higher abundance of key Na+ transporters, including Na+-Cl− cotransporters in both species, epithelial Na+ channels for the female rat, and Na+-K+-Cl−cotransporters for the female mouse. The higher abundance of transporters accounts for the enhanced water and Na+ transport along the female rat and mouse distal nephrons, relative to the respective male, resulting in similar urine excretion between the sexes. Model simulations indicate that the sex and species differences in renal transporter patterns may partially explain the experimental observation that, in response to a saline load, the diuretic and natriuretic responses were more rapid in female rats than males, but no significant sex difference was found in mice. These computational models can serve as a valuable tool for analyzing findings from experimental studies conducted in rats and mice, especially those involving genetic modifications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that reduces proximal tubular sodium reabsorption, can improve the efficiency of loop diuretics, potentially leading to more and faster decongestion in patients with acute decompensated heart failure with volume overload, is unclear. METHODS In this multicenter, parallel-group, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, we assigned patients with acute decompensated heart failure, clinical signs of volume overload (i.e., edema, pleural effusion, or ascites), and an N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide level of more than 1000 pg per milliliter or a B-type natriuretic peptide level of more than 250 pg per milliliter to receive either intravenous acetazolamide (500 mg once daily) or placebo added to standardized intravenous loop diuretics (at a dose equivalent to twice the oral maintenance dose). Randomization was stratified according to the left ventricular ejection fraction (≤40% or >40%). The primary end point was successful decongestion, defined as the absence of signs of volume overload, within 3 days after randomization and without an indication for escalation of decongestive therapy. Secondary end points included a composite of death from any cause or rehospitalization for heart failure during 3 months of follow-up. Safety was also assessed. RESULTS A total of 519 patients underwent randomization. Successful decongestion occurred in 108 of 256 patients (42.2%) in the acetazolamide group and in 79 of 259 (30.5%) in the placebo group (risk ratio, 1.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17 to 1.82; P<0.001). Death from any cause or rehospitalization for heart failure occurred in 76 of 256 patients (29.7%) in the acetazolamide group and in 72 of 259 patients (27.8%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.78 to 1.48). Acetazolamide treatment was associated with higher cumulative urine output and natriuresis, findings consistent with better diuretic efficiency. The incidence of worsening kidney function, hypokalemia, hypotension, and adverse events was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS The addition of acetazolamide to loop diuretic therapy in patients with acute decompensated heart failure resulted in a greater incidence of successful decongestion.

Abstract
This review paper considers the consequences of modulating tubular reabsorption proximal to the macula densa by sodium–glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, acetazolamide, and furosemide in states of glomerular hyperfiltration. SGLT2 inhibitors improve renal function in early and advanced diabetic nephropathy by decreasing the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), presumably by activating the tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) mechanism. Central in this paper is that the renoprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in diabetic nephropathy can only be partially explained by TGF activation, and there are alternative explanations. The sustained activation of TGF leans on two prerequisites: no or only partial adaptation should occur in reabsorption proximal to macula densa, and no or only partial adaptation should occur in the TGF response. The main proximal tubular and loop of Henle sodium transporters are sodium–hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3), SGLT2, and the Na-K-2Cl co-transporter (NKCC2). SGLT2 inhibitors, acetazolamide, and furosemide are the most important compounds; inhibiting these transporters would decrease sodium reabsorption upstream of the macula densa and increase TGF activity. This could directly or indirectly affect TGF responsiveness, which could oppose sustained TGF activation. Only SGLT2 inhibitors can sustainably activate the TGF as there is only partial compensation in tubular reabsorption and TGF response. SGLT2 inhibitors have been shown to preserve GFR in both early and advanced diabetic nephropathy. Other than for early diabetic nephropathy, a solid physiological basis for these effects in advanced nephropathy is lacking. In addition, TGF has hardly been studied in humans, and therefore this role of TGF remains elusive. This review also considers alternative explanations for the renoprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in diabetic patients such as the enhancement of microvascular network function. Furthermore, combination use of SGLT2 inhibitors and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). in diabetes can decrease inflammatory pathways, improve renal oxygenation, and delay the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract
The kidneys regulate levels of Na+ and K+ in the body by varying urinary excretion of the electrolytes. Since transport of each of the two ions can affect the other, controlling both at the same time is a complex task. The kidneys meet this challenge in two ways. Some tubular segments change the coupling between Na+ and K+ transport. In addition, transport of Na+ can shift between segments where it is coupled to K+ reabsorption and segments where it is coupled to K+ secretion. This permits the kidney to maintain electrolyte balance with large variations in dietary intake.

Abstract
Electrolyte balance is essential to maintain homeostasis in the body. The most crucial electrolytes are sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+), chloride (Cl−), and calcium (Ca2+). These ions maintain the volume of body fluids, and blood pressure, participate in muscle contractions, and nerve conduction, and are important in enzymatic reactions. The balance is mainly ensured by the kidneys, which are an important organ that regulates the volume and composition of urine, together with which excess electrolytes are excreted. They are also important in the reproductive system, where they play a key role. In the male reproductive system, electrolytes are important in acrosomal reaction and sperm motility. Sodium, calcium, magnesium, and chloride are related to sperm capacitation. Moreover, Mg2+, Ca2+, and Na+ play a key role in spermatogenesis and the maintenance of morphologically normal spermatozoa. Infertility problems are becoming more common. It is known that disturbances in the electrolyte balance lead to reproductive dysfunction. In men, there is a decrease in sperm motility, loss of sperm capacitation, and male infertility. In the female reproductive system, sodium is associated with estrogen synthesis. In the contraction and relaxation of the uterus, there is sodium, potassium, and calcium. Calcium is associated with oocyte activation. In turn, in women, changes in the composition of the follicular fluid are observed, leading to a restriction of follicular growth. Imbalance of oocyte electrolytes, resulting in a lack of oocyte activation and, consequently, infertility.

Abstract
Wet bulb temperatures (Twet) during extreme heat events are commonly 31°C. Recent predictions indicate that Twet will approach or exceed 34°C. Epidemiological data indicate that exposure to extreme heat events increases kidney injury risk. We tested the hypothesis that kidney injury risk is elevated to a greater extent during prolonged exposure to Twet = 34°C compared with Twet = 31°C. Fifteen healthy men rested for 8 h in Twet = 31 (0)°C and Twet = 34 (0)°C. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP-2), and thioredoxin 1 (TRX-1) were measured from urine samples. The primary outcome was the product of IGFBP7 and TIMP-2 ([IGFBP7·TIMP-2]), which provided an index of kidney injury risk. Plasma interleukin-17a (IL-17a) was also measured. Data are presented at preexposure and after 8 h of exposure and as mean (SD) change from preexposure. The increase in [IGFBP7·TIMP-2] was markedly greater at 8 h in the 34°C [+26.9 (27.1) (ng/mL)2/1,000) compared with the 31°C [+6.2 (6.5) (ng/mL)2/1,000] trial (P < 0.01). Urine TRX-1, a marker of renal oxidative stress, was higher at 8 h in the 34°C [+77.6 (47.5) ng/min] compared with the 31°C [+16.2 (25.1) ng/min] trial (P < 0.01). Plasma IL-17a, an inflammatory marker, was elevated at 8 h in the 34°C [+199.3 (90.0) fg/dL; P < 0.01] compared with the 31°C [+9.0 (95.7) fg/dL] trial. Kidney injury risk is exacerbated during prolonged resting exposures to Twet experienced during future extreme heat events (34°C) compared with that experienced currently (31°C), likely because of oxidative stress and inflammatory processes.NEW AND NOTEWORTHY We have demonstrated that kidney injury risk is increased when men are exposed over an 8-h period to a wet bulb temperature of 31°C and exacerbated at a wet bulb temperature of 34°C. Importantly, these heat stress conditions parallel those that are encountered during current (31°C) and future (34°C) extreme heat events. The kidney injury biomarker analyses indicate both the proximal and distal tubules as the locations of potential renal injury and that the injury is likely due to oxidative stress and inflammation.

Abstract
Lepus yarkandensis is a desert-dwelling animal that has various adaptations to cope with drought. The kidney maintains water and acid-base balance mainly through the vasopressin-regulated water reabsorption pathway and proximal tubular bicarbonate reabsorption pathway. In this study, we compared the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and transcription factors in the kidneys of L. yarkandensis and Oryctolagus cuniculus to explore the relationship between the DEGs in kidneys and the animals’ adaptations. Transcriptome sequencing data were used to predict the differentially-expressed water reabsorption genes and their transcription factors. Quantitative real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry, and western blotting were used to detect and verify the expression of DEGs in the kidney at mRNA and protein levels. Transcriptome analysis of the kidney of L. yarkandensis and O. cuniculus showed that 6,610 genes were up-regulated and 5,727 genes down-regulated in data shared by both species. According to the data, 232 transcription factors and their corresponding target genes were predicted, from which genes and transcription factors related to renal water reabsorption were screened. Quantitative RT-PCR results showed AQP1, AQP2, ADCY3, HIF1A, CREB3, and NFATc1 had higher expression in the L. yarkandensis kidney; in comparison, FXYD2 mRNA expression levels were lower. In western blotting, transcription factors HIF1A, NFATc1, NF-κB1, and critical genes ADCY3, ATPA1, and SLC4A4, were highly expressed in the kidneys of L. yarkandensis. Immunohistochemical results showed that the ADCY3 protein was in the basolateral membrane of the collecting duct, the ATP1A1 protein was in the basolateral membrane and medulla of proximal tubules, and the SLC4A4 protein was in the basolateral membrane of proximal tubules. According to these results can be inferred that HIF1A, NFATc1, and NF-κB1 play a certain role in regulating the expression of genes related to water reabsorption in the kidney of L. yarkandensis, thus improving the water reclamation efficiency of L. yarkandensis, so as to adapt to the arid desert environment.

Abstract
Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP) is building a spatially specified human kidney tissue atlas in health and disease with single-cell resolution. Here, we describe the construction of an integrated reference map of cells, pathways, and genes using unaffected regions of nephrectomy tissues and undiseased human biopsies from 56 adult subjects. We use single-cell/nucleus transcriptomics, subsegmental laser microdissection transcriptomics and proteomics, near-single-cell proteomics, 3D and CODEX imaging, and spatial metabolomics to hierarchically identify genes, pathways, and cells. Integrated data from these different technologies coherently identify cell types/subtypes within different nephron segments and the interstitium. These profiles describe cell-level functional organization of the kidney following its physiological functions and link cell subtypes to genes, proteins, metabolites, and pathways. They further show that messenger RNA levels along the nephron are congruent with the subsegmental physiological activity. This reference atlas provides a framework for the classification of kidney disease when multiple molecular mechanisms underlie convergent clinical phenotypes.

Abstract
The primary solute of the milieu intérieur is sodium and accompanying anions. The solvent is water. The kidneys acutely regulate homeostasis in filtration, secretion, and resorption of electrolytes, non-electrolytes, and minerals while balancing water retention and clearance. The gastrointestinal absorptive and secretory functions enable food digestion and water absorption needed to sustain life. Gastrointestinal perturbations including vomiting and diarrhea can lead to significant volume and electrolyte losses, overwhelming the renal homeostatic compensatory mechanisms. Dysnatremia, potassium and acid-base disturbances can result from gastrointestinal pathophysiologic processes. Understanding the renal and gastrointestinal contributions to homeostatis are important for the clinical evaluation of perturbed volume disturbances.

Abstract
Lithium is a commonly used medication for mood stabilization and a well-known cause of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (DI). Coexistent psychogenic polydipsia with nephrogenic DI is uncommon, and its management is challenging due to the wide variation in serum sodium based on fluctuations in water intake. Here, we describe the case of a 56-year-old male with psychogenic polydipsia and nephrogenic DI which manifested in wide swings of serum sodium over a short interval. He initially presented with hyponatremia with low urine osmolality consistent with psychogenic polydipsia. His serum sodium began to improve after free water restriction. However, later in the course, he developed an increase in serum sodium levels and polyuria with persistent low urine osmolality consistent with DI.

Abstract
Nocturnal polyuria is the most frequent cause of nocturia, a common disease associated with a compromised quality of life and increased mortality. Its pathogenesis is complex, and the detailed underlying mechanism remains unknown. Herein, we report that concomitant intake of a high-salt diet and reduced nitric oxide (NO) production achieved through Nω-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME) administration in mice resulted in nocturnal polyuria recapitulating the clinical features in humans. High salt intake under reduced NO production overactivated the angiotensin II-SPAK (STE20/SPS1-related proline–alanine-rich protein kinase)-NCC (sodium chloride co-transporter) pathway in the kidney, resulting in the insufficient excretion of sodium during the day and its excessive excretion at night. Excessive Na excretion at night in turn leads to nocturnal polyuria due to osmotic diuresis. Our study identified a central role for the intrarenal angiotensin II-SPAK-NCC pathway in the pathophysiology of nocturnal polyuria, highlighting its potential as a promising therapeutic target. This study reports a mouse model of nocturnal polyuria - increased urine production at night that causes compromised quality of life and may impact mortality in older people. The authors identify a molecular pathway in the kidney that could prove to be a promising drug target for nocturnal polyuria.

Abstract
Histamine is an important immunomodulator, as well as a regulator of allergic inflammation, gastric acid secretion, and neurotransmission. Although substantial histamine level has been reported in the kidney, renal pathological and physiological effects of this compound have not been clearly defined. The goal of this study was to provide insight into the role of histamine-related pathways in the kidney, with emphasis on the collecting duct (CD), a distal part of the nephron important for the regulation of blood pressure. We report that all four histamine receptors (HRs) as well as enzymes responsible for histamine metabolism and synthesis are expressed in cultured mouse mpkCCDcl4 cells, and histamine evokes a dose-dependent transient increase in intracellular Ca2+ in these cells. Furthermore, we observed a dose-dependent increase in cAMP in the CD cells in response to histamine. Short-circuit current studies aimed at measuring Na+ reabsorption via ENaC (epithelial Na+ channel) demonstrated inhibition of ENaC-mediated currents by histamine after a 4-hr incubation, and single-channel patch-clamp analysis revealed similar ENaC open probability before and after acute histamine application. The long-term (4 hr) effect on ENaC was corroborated in immunocytochemistry and qPCR, which showed a decrease in protein and gene expression for αENaC upon histamine treatment. In summary, our data highlight the functional importance of HRs in the CD cells and suggest potential implications of histamine in inflammation-related renal conditions. Further research is required to discern the molecular pathways downstream of HRs and assess the role of specific receptors in renal pathophysiology.

Abstract
The TIR-containing protein C (TcpC) of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain CFT073 modulates innate immunity by interfering with the Toll-like receptor and NALP3 inflammasome signaling cascade. During a urinary tract infection the pathogen encounters epithelial and innate immune cells and replicates by several orders of magnitude. We therefore analyzed whether these cell types and also the density of the pathogen would induce the recently defined promoter of the CFT073 tcpC gene to, in time, dampen innate immune responses. Using reporter constructs we found that the uroepithelial cell line T24/83 and the monocytic cell line THP-1 induced the tcpC promoter. Differentiation of monocytic THP-1 cells to macrophages increased their potential to switch on the promoter. Cell-associated CFT073 displayed the highest promoter activity. Since potassium represents the most abundant intracellular ion and is secreted to induce the NLRP3 inflammasome, we tested its ability to activate the tcpC promoter. Potassium induced the promoter with high efficiency. Sodium, which is enriched in the renal cortex generating an antibacterial hypersalinity, also induced the tcpC promoter. Finally, the bacterial density modulated the tcpC promoter activity. In the search for promoter-regulating proteins, we found that the DNA-binding protein H-NS dampens the promoter activity. Taken together, different cell types and salts, present in the kidney, are able to induce the tcpC promoter and might explain the mechanism of TcpC induction during a kidney infection with uropathogenic E. coli strains.

Abstract
The attention for the control of dietary risk factors involved in the development of hypertension, includes a large effort on dietary salt restrictions. Ample studies show the beneficial role of limiting dietary sodium as a lifestyle modification in the prevention and management of essential hypertension. Not until the past decade or so have studies more specifically investigated diurnal variations in renal electrolyte excretion, which led us to the hypothesis that timing of salt intake may impact cardiovascular health and blood pressure regulation. Cell autonomous molecular clocks as the name implies, function independently to maintain optimum functional rhythmicity in the face of environmental stressors such that cellular homeostasis is maintained at all times. Our understanding of mechanisms influencing diurnal patterns of sodium excretion and blood pressure has expanded with the discovery of the circadian clock genes. In this review, we discuss what is known about circadian regulation of renal sodium handling machinery and its influence on blood pressure regulation, with timing of sodium intake as a potential modulator of the kidney clock.

Abstract
Majority of patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing renal denervation (RDN) are maintained on antihypertensive medication. However, RDN may impair compensatory responses to hypotension induced by blood loss. Therefore, continuation of antihypertensive medications in denervated patients may exacerbate hypotensive episodes. This study examined whether antihypertensive medication compromised hemodynamic responses to blood loss in normotensive (control) sheep and in sheep with hypertensive CKD at 30 months after RDN (control-RDN, CKD-RDN) or sham (control-intact, CKD-intact) procedure. CKD-RDN sheep had lower basal blood pressure (BP; ≈9 mm Hg) and higher basal renal blood flow (≈38%) than CKD-intact. Candesartan lowered BP and increased renal blood flow in all groups. 10% loss of blood volume alone caused a modest fall in BP (≈6-8 mm Hg) in all groups but did not affect the recovery of BP. 10% loss of blood volume in the presence of candesartan prolonged the time at trough BP by 9 minutes and attenuated the fall in renal blood flow in the CKD-RDN group compared with CKD-intact. Candesartan in combination with RDN prolonged trough BP and attenuated renal hemodynamic responses to blood loss. To minimize the risk of hypotension-mediated organ damage, patients with RDN maintained on antihypertensive medications may require closer monitoring when undergoing surgery or experiencing traumatic blood loss.

Abstract
Sodium and water homeostasis are drastically modified at birth, in mammals, by the transition from aquatic life to terrestrial life. Accumulating evidence during the past ten years underscores the central role for the mineralocorticoid signaling pathway, in the fine regulation of this equilibrium, at this critical period of development. Interestingly, regarding evolution, while the mineralocorticoid receptor is expressed in fish, the appearance of its related ligand, aldosterone, coincides with terrestrial life, as it is first detected in lungfish and amphibian. Thus, aldosterone is likely one of the main hormones regulating the transition from an aquatic environment to an air environment. This review will focus on the different actors of the mineralocorticoid signaling pathway from aldosterone secretion in the adrenal gland, to mineralocorticoid receptor expression in the kidney, summarizing their regulation and roles throughout fetal and neonatal development, in the light of evolution.

Abstract
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) plays a key role in salt and water homeostasis in
tetrapod vertebrates. There are four ENaC subunits (α, β, γ, δ), forming heterotrimeric
αβγ- or δβγ-ENaCs. Although the physiology of αβγ-ENaC is well understood, for decades the
field has stalled with respect to δβγ-ENaC due to the lack of mammalian model organisms.
The SCNN1D gene coding for δ-ENaC was previously believed to be absent in
rodents, hindering studies using standard laboratory animals. We analyzed all currently
available rodent genomes and discovered that SCNN1D is present in rodents
but was independently lost in five rodent lineages, including the Muridae (mice and rats).
The independent loss of SCNN1D in rodent lineages may be constrained by
phylogeny and taxon-specific adaptation to dry habitats, however habitat aridity does not
provide a selection pressure for maintenance of SCNN1D across Rodentia. A
fusion of two exons coding for a structurally flexible region in the extracellular domain
of δ-ENaC appeared in the Hystricognathi (a group that includes guinea pigs). This
conserved pattern evolved at least 41 Ma and represents a new autapomorphic feature for
this clade. Exon fusion does not impair functionality of guinea pig (Cavia
porcellus) δβγ-ENaC expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
Electrophysiological characterization at the whole-cell and single-channel level revealed
conserved biophysical features and mechanisms controlling guinea pig αβγ- and δβγ-ENaC
function as compared with human orthologs. Guinea pigs therefore represent commercially
available mammalian model animals that will help shed light on the physiological function
of δ-ENaC.
