ET-1 receptor inhibitors block ET-1 regulation of Na reabsorption, JNa. ET-1 significantly inhibited JNa (basal control 72.6 ± 8.6 vs. ET-1 control 26.8 ± 7.2, P < 0.05, n = 6). Benzamil significantly inhibited JNa in the absence of ET-1 (basal control 72.6 ± 8.6 vs. benzamil 43.8 ± 8.7, P < 0.05, n = 6) and in the presence of ET-1 plus the ETA receptor inhibitor BQ-123 (ET-1 + BQ-123 control 79.8 ± 8.9 vs. benzamil 52.8 ± 8.3, P < 0.05, n = 6). Benzamil did not inhibit JNa in the presence of ET-1 plus the ETB receptor inhibitor BQ-788 (ET-1 + BQ-788 control 79.2 ± 19.4 vs. benzamil 75.9 ± 13.4, P = NS). *P < 0.05, compared with control of the same condition. **P < 0.05, compared with basal control.
