Subcellular distribution of Rhcg in intercalated cells in the outer stripe of the OMCD (OMCDo) in control and hypokalemic kidney. A: immunogold electron microscopy localization of Rhcg in the apical region of intercalated cells in the OMCDo of control rat kidney. The majority of immunolabel is present in subapical vesicles (arrowheads), and only a minority is present in the apical plasma membrane (arrows). B: immunogold electron microscopy localization of Rhcg in the apical region of intercalated cells in the OMCDo of hypokalemic rat kidney. The predominant component of apical Rhcg is present in the apical plasma membrane (arrow), and only a small amount is present in subapical vesicles (arrowheads). Results are representative of results from 4 control and 5 hypokalemic rat kidneys.
