The nature of the cellular abnormality causing hypokalemia, hypotension, and hypovolemia in Bartter's and Gitelman's syndromes is still being debated. In fact, despite the recent descriptions of an array of nonconservative missense or point mutations in some ion transporters and in K+ channel, the lack of detectable defects in some patients suggests that other abnormalities of cell ion homeostasis may be involved in the pathophysiology of these syndromes. The study of the activity of cell ion transporters in patients with these syndromes using red blood cells (RBC) as a cellular model never investigated the role of plasma factor(s) affecting ion transport.
