    Abstract The primary structure of the thiazide-sensitive NaCl cotransporter (NCC) was resolved 30 years ago by the molecular identification of the cDNA encoding this cotransporter, from the winter's flounder urinary bladder, following a functional expression strategy. This review outlines some aspects of how the knowledge about thiazide diuretics and NCC evolved, the history of the cloning process, and the expansion of the SLC12 family of electroneutral cotransporters. The diseases associated with activation or inactivation of NCC are discussed, as well as the molecular model by which the activity of NCC is regulated. The controversies in the field are discussed as well as recent publication of the three-dimensional model of NCC obtained by cryo-electron microscopy, revealing not only the amino acid residues critical for Na

    Abstract The renal Na-K-2Cl and Na-Cl cotransporters are the major salt reabsorption pathways in the thick ascending limb of Henle loop and the distal convoluted tubule, respectively. These transporters are the target of the loop and thiazide type diuretics extensively used in the world for the treatment of edematous states and arterial hypertension. The diuretics appeared in the market many years before the salt transport systems were discovered. The evolving of the knowledge and the cloning of the genes encoding the Na-K-2Cl and Na-Cl cotransporters were possible thanks to the study of marine species. This work presents the history of how we came to know the mechanisms for the loop and thiazide type diuretics actions, the use of marine species in the cloning process of these cotransporters and therefore in the whole solute carrier cotransproters 12 (SLC12) family of electroneutral cation chloride cotransporters, and the disease associated with each member of the family.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Regulation of the sodium chloride cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) plays a crucial role in renal salt handling. The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) has been shown to activate NCC through the WNK4-SPAK pathway, which is independent of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system. In this review, we examine new information about the mechanism of how the CaSR regulates NCC through the WNK4-SPAK pathway and its physiological and therapeutic implications.
    Recent findings: The activation of CaSR in TALH cells during hypercalcemia inhibits NKCC2 and ROMK activity, reducing paracellular Ca2+ reabsorption but decreasing salt reabsorption. This pathway enables NaCl reabsorption in the DCT while promoting Ca2+ excretion. CaSR activation in the apical DCT stimulates a signaling pathway involving PKC, WNK4, and SPAK, which increases NCC activation to recover the NaCl not reabsorbed in TAHL. Glucose or fructose acting as calcimimetics enhance apical CaSR sensitivity, increasing NCC activity, which contribute to the mechanism of hypertension prevalence in diabetic patients or in those with high fructose consumption.
    Summary: These findings reveal the importance of the CaSR-mediated activation of the WNK4-SPAK pathway in regulating salt and calcium homeostasis and its potential as a therapeutic target for hypertension and related diseases.
