Effects of probenecid on sodium and fluid transport in mpkCCDcl4 cells. (a) Accumulation of ATP in the apical chamber after 1‐h mechanical stimulation with rocking and treatment with vehicle and various concentrations of probenecid. (b) Dose‐dependent effect of probenecid on ENaC‐mediated sodium reabsorption. Amiloride‐sensitive current was measured with an epithelial Volt/Ohm meter after 8‐h‐long treatment with probenecid. (c) Effect of apical application of 100 μM ATP on ENaC‐depended Isc without probenecid and in the presence of the drug. (d) mpkCCDcl4 cells grown in 3D culture in the presence of forskolin form cysts. (e) Median cyst size in the control‐ and probenecid‐treated wells on summary graph. (f) Cyst growth in Matrigel in presence of 10 μM amiloride. Each dot represents one cyst size, grouped by wells. Columns are mean ± SEM of the three medians in the wells treated with vehicle, probenecid, or amiloride. *p < 0.05 per unpaired t‐test.
