  • Title: A mathematical model of rabbit cortical thick ascending limb of the Henle's loop.
    Author: Fernandes PL, Ferreira HG.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1991 Apr 26; 1064(1):111-23. PubMed ID: 2025631.
    Abstract:
    A mathematical version of the cell model of the cortical thick ascending limb of the rabbit proposed by Greger and Schlatter ((1983) Pfügers Arch. 396, 325-334) is described. Available data are sufficient to compute the most important parameters. Simulations of experiments with perfused tubules in which the transepithelial voltage and conductance, and the intracellular electrical potential were measured in the course of ionic substitutions in the perfusing baths or treatment with ouabain or furosemide are in good agreement with the experimental results with the exception of those relating to dilution potential experiments. The model can be used in the analysis and planning of experiments and is capable of predicting the instantaneous values of ionic fluxes and intracellular concentrations and of cell volume.
