Increased distal convoluted tubule fractional volume in Wnk1^tm2.1Juha/Wnk1⁺ Tg(Pgk1-cre)1Lni/0 mice

renal/urinary system

increased urine aldosterone level ( J:200742 )

• elevated 24h urinary aldosterone level

increased urine calcium level ( J:200742 )

• greatly amplified when mice are fed a high Na+ diet

abnormal distal convoluted tubule morphology ( J:200742 )

• increased fractional volume

abnormal kidney physiology ( J:200742 )

• fail to increase K+ and H+ secretion in response to hyperkalemic acidosis

homeostasis/metabolism

homeostasis/metabolism phenotype ( J:200742 )

N • treatment with hydrochlorothiazide for 3d normalizes the metabolic disorders

hyperkalemia ( J:200742 )

increased urine aldosterone level ( J:200742 )

• elevated 24h urinary aldosterone level

increased circulating chloride level ( J:200742 )
