Studies were performed to characterize the renal effects of maleate in anesthetized dogs. Following the intravenous administration of maleate or maleic acid (50 mg/kg), mean fractional bicarbonate excretion (CHCO3/GFR) rose to as high as 26%. Na, K, and phosphate excretion also increased markedly, whereas C1 excretion remained low. An initial transient fall in urinary pH from 6.53 to 6.13 contrasted sharply with the rapid alkalinization of the urine induced by acetazolamide administration. During saline expansion CHCO3/GFR rose from 4 to 37% after maleate administration, whereas Cl excretion did not change significantly. During continuous carbonic anhydrase inhibition with acetazolamide, maleate administration resulted in a further rise in CHCO3/GFR from 22 to 35%. Whereas CPO4/GFR increased only from 1 to 3% during acetazolamide administration, this ratio reached 75% following the addition of maleate. Fumarate, the transisomer of maleate, and malonate, a well-known inhibitor of Krebs cycle, failed to affect bicarbonate excretion. This study demonstrates that maleate inhibits the fraction of bicarbonate reabsorption uncatalyzed by carbonic anhydrase. Impaired anionic reabsorption of bicarbonate or accelerated passive backflux of this ion into proximal tubular lumen are the two mechanisms that best explain the bicarbonaturia induced by maleate.
