“…The kinases are phosphorylated by WNK (with-no-K[Lys] kinases) [1,7,8,9,10], which similarly contribute to the regulation of ion transport and blood pressure [9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. SPAK and OSR1 stimulate NaCl (NCC) and Na + , K + , 2Cl - (NKCC) co-transporters [4,5,6,7,8,11,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26] as well as a number of ion channels [27,28,29,30]. SPAK/OSR1 are expressed in intestine [31].…”
