ABSTRACT
In order to study the mechanism of H-ion secretion in cortical distal tubules of the rat kedney, the luminal pH and transepithelial potential difference (PD) were measured with double-barrelled, pH-sensitive, resin/reference microelectrodes. perfusion of peritubular capillaries with low-sodium solutions increased luminal pH by 0.28 ñ 0.024 units. Perfusion of the lumen with 1 m§ amiloride increased luminal pH by 0.67 ñ 0.01 units. These changes could not be atributed to modification of transepithelial PD. We conclude that early distal acidification is sodium-dependent, possibly owing to the presence of Na+/H+ exchange
