Low Salt Delivery Triggers Autocrine Release of Prostaglandin E2 From the Aldosterone-Sensitive Distal Nephron in Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension Mice

Aberrant activation of with-no-lysine kinase (WNK)-STE20/SPS1-related proline-alanine-rich protein kinase (SPAK) kinase signaling in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) causes unbridled activation of the thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransporter (NCC), leading to familial hyperkalemic hyperten...
