Unique chloride-sensing properties of WNK4 permit the distal nephron to modulate potassium homeostasis

Dietary potassium deficiency activates thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransport along the distal nephron. This may explain, in part, the hypertension and cardiovascular mortality observed in individuals who consume a low potassium diet. Recent data suggest plasma potassium affects the distal n...
