Roles of tyrosine kinase in insulin action on cell volume of fetal rat type II pneumocyte

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate the roles of tyrosine kinase (TK) in the insulin action on cell volume in fetal rat (20-day gestational age) type II pneumocyte. Insulin (100 nmol/l) increased cell volume, and this insulin (100 nmol/l) action was completely blocked by 50 micromol/l bumetanide (BMT) and 10 micromol/l amiloride (AML). This observation indicates that 100 nmol/l insulin activates BMT-sensitive Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter and AML-sensitive pathways. The stimulatory action of 100 nmol/l… Show more

“…7A). Our previous study (Marunaka, Shintani, Sugimoto & Niisato, 1996) indicates that the bumetanide-sensitive Na+-K+-2CFcotransporter contributes to maintenance of cell volume of FDLE cells. The activity of this cotransporter may produce a higher electrochemical potential of intracellular Clthan that of extracellular Cl-.…”

“…For example, a report (Sargeant et al 1995) suggests that insulin activates the Na + ‐K + pump by increasing the intracellular Na + concentration due to an increase in Na + influx via the bumetanide‐sensitive Na + ‐K + ‐2Cl − cotransporter. Indeed, insulin stimulates the Na + ‐K + ‐2Cl − cotransporter (Longo, 1996; Marunaka et al 1996; Marunaka et al 1999 b ). Removal of extracellular Cl − diminishes the Na + influx via the Na + ‐K + ‐2Cl − cotransporter, inhibiting the insulin action on the Na + ‐K + pump (Sargeant et al 1995).…”

“…In general, the NKCC maintains cell volume via influxes of Na + , K + , and Cl -under normal conditions. In this study, we performed the functional assay for NKCC by measuring the cell volume in these cells after treatment with furosemide [16]. Although cell shrinkage in MKN28 and MKN45 was observed after treatment with furosemide (Fig.…”
