General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | tissue kallkrein deficient mice exhibit net transepithelial potassium absorption in cortical collecting ducts because of abnormal activation of the colonic H+,K+-ATPase in intercalated cells and reduced potassium secretion by principal cells secondary to decreased epithelial sodium channel activity | Mus musculus |
physiological function | tissue kallikrein acts directly on epithelial sodium channel in order to modulate its activity but is not critical for the regulation of renal sodium homeostasis. Tissue kallikrein is a kaliuretic factor that provides a rapid abd aldosterone-independent protection against hyperkalemia after a dietary potassium load | Mus musculus |
