Effect of Angiotensin II on ENaC in the Distal Convoluted Tubule and in the Cortical Collecting Duct of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Deficient Mice

摘要

Angiotensin II stimulates epithelial Na channel (ENaC) by aldosterone‐independent mechanism. We now test the effect of angiotensin II on ENaC in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and cortical collecting duct (CCD) of wild‐type (WT) and kidney‐specific mineralocorticoid receptor knockout mice (KS‐MR‐KO).
