In the renal proximal tubule, the activities of the basolateral Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) cotransporter (NBC) and the apical Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE3) uniformly vary in parallel, suggesting that they are coordinately regulated. PKA-mediated inhibition of NHE3 is mediated by a PDZ motif-containing protein, the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor (NHE-RF). Given the common inhibition of these transporters after protein kinase A (PKA) activation, we sought to determine whether NHE-RF also plays a role in PKA-regulated NBC activity. Renal cortex immunoblot analysis using anti-peptide antibodies directed against rabbit NHE-RF demonstrated the presence of this regulatory factor in both brush-border membranes (BBMs) and basolateral membranes (BLMs). Using a reconstitution assay, we found that limited trypsin digestion of detergent solubilized rabbit renal BLM preparations resulted in NBC activity that was unaffected by PKA activation. Co-reconstitution of these trypsinized preparations with a recombinant protein corresponding to wild-type rabbit NHE-RF restored the inhibitory effect of PKA on NBC activity in a concentration-dependent manner. NBC activity was inhibited 60% by 10(-8)M NHE-RF; this effect was not observed in the absence of PKA. Reconstitution with heat-denatured NHE-RF also failed to attenuate NBC activity. To establish further a physiologic role for NHE-RF in NBC regulation, the renal epithelial cell line B-SC-1, which lacks detectable endogenous NHE-RF expression, was engineered to express stably an NHE-RF transgene. NHE-RF-expressing B-SC-1 cells (B-SC-RF) exhibited markedly lower basal levels of NBC activity than did wild-type controls. Inhibition of NBC activity in B-SC-RF cells was enhanced after 10 microM of forskolin treatment, consistent with a postulated role for NHE-RF in mediating the inhibition of NBC activity by PKA. These findings not only suggest NHE-RF involvement in PKA-regulated NBC activity, but also provide a unique molecular mechanism whereby basolateral NBC and apical NHE3 activities may be coordinately regulated in renal proximal tubule cells.

The sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) was first identified as an essential cofactor for cyclic AMP-mediated inhibition of the epithelial isoform of rabbit kidney sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE3). More recent work shows that NHERF constitutes a family of PSD-95/DIg/ZO-1 (PDZ) domain-containing adapter proteins, only some of which associate with the NHE3 antiporter. Other targets of the NHERF proteins include members of the ezrin-radixin-moesin family of cytoskeletal proteins. In the current model for NHE3 regulation, NHERF links NHE3 to the protein kinase A-anchoring protein, ezrin, and thereby facilitates its phosphorylation and inhibition by protein kinase A. Recent studies have also established the interaction of NHERF and its homologs with the beta2-adrenergic receptor and the platelet-derived growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase that facilitates signal transduction by these receptors. Association with NHERF may also regulate the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator and the sodium-bicarbonate transporter. With the rapid increase in the intracellular targets identified for NHERF, the emerging data point to a broad role for these PDZ-containing proteins in the organization of signaling complexes and control of cell physiology.

Replacement of external NaCl with LiCl induced cytoplasmic alkalinization in CCL-39 cells and rat L6 myoblasts expressing the endogenous Na+/H+ exchanger isoform NHE1. This Li+-induced alkalinization is due to activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger because it was completely inhibited by 100 microM ethylisopropylamiloride (apparent Kd=1 microM) and because it did not occur in exchanger-deficient PS120 cells. The effect of Li+ was not mimicked by Na+, K+, Cs+ and choline+. Li+ caused cytoplasmic alkalinization in PS120 cells expressing NHE1 or NHE2, but not NHE3, when Li+ was added to cells at a concentration high enough to saturate their external transport sites as predicted from Li+ affinities. Li+ did not induce phosphatidylinositol (PI) turnover or intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. Li+-induced alkalinization was not affected by protein kinase C down-regulation, loss of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta caused by antisense oligonucleotide treatment, or pretreatment with calphostin C, pertussis toxin, MEK inhibitor PD98059 and PI3-kinase inhibitor LY294002. However, it was markedly suppressed by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein (10 microM). Thus, externally added Li+ activates NHE1 and NHE2 via a mechanism possibly involving a tyrosine kinase, causing an increase in cytoplasmic pH that could potentially affect various cell functions.

The activity of the sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) isoform of the sodium/hydrogen exchanger in the brush-border membrane of the renal proximal tubule is tightly regulated. Recent biochemical and cellular experiments have established the essential requirement for a new class of regulatory factors, sodium/hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) and NHERF-like proteins, in cAMP-mediated inhibition of NHE3 activity. NHERF is the first PSD-95/Dlg/ZO-1 (PDZ) motif-containing protein localized to apical membranes and appears to facilitate cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation of NHE3 by interacting with the cytoskeleton to target a multiprotein complex to the brush-border membrane. Other recent experiments have indicated that NHERF also regulates the activity of other renal transport proteins, suggesting that the signal complex model of signal transduction in the kidney may be more common than presently appreciated. This article reviews studies on the regulation of NHE3 by NHERF, PKA, and ezrin and introduces the concept of regulation of renal transporters by signal complexes. Although not the primary focus of this review, recent studies have indicated a role for NHERF in membrane targeting, trafficking, and sorting of transporters, receptors, and signaling proteins. Thus NHERF and related PDZ-containing proteins appear to be essential adapters for regulation of renal transporters in the mammalian kidney that maintain salt and water balance.

Ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM)-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50) and NHE3 Kinase A regulatory protein (E3KARP) are membrane-cytoskeleton linking proteins that utilize 2 PSD-95/DIg/ZO-1 (PDZ) domains and an ERM binding site to coordinate cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-regulated ion transport in a number of distinct epithelia. ERM family members serve to anchor EBP50 and E3KARP to the actin cytoskeleton and sequester protein kinase A (PKA) to these protein complexes. In hepatocytes and cholangiocytes, the epithelial cells of the bile secretory unit, cAMP-activated PKA stimulates secretion and bile formation, but the molecular mechanisms, including the potential contribution of EBP50 and E3KARP, remain undetermined. The present studies evaluated the comparative expression and localization of EBP50 and E3KARP in rat hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. Complementary DNAs encoding rat EBP50 and E3KARP were identified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in both epithelial cell types and subsequently sequenced. Northern and Western analysis showed the presence of EBP50 messenger RNA and protein in both hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. Confocal immunofluorescence revealed EBP50 was concentrated at the apical domain of both cell types. E3KARP was also expressed in cholangiocytes but had a distinct cytoplasmic/nuclear distribution. In dominant-negative transfection studies, patch clamp analysis of Mz-ChA1 cholangiocarcinoma cells showed that expression of the PDZ1 domain of EBP50 selectively decreased the endogenous cAMP-mediated Cl secretory response. The apical expression of EBP50, presence of specific ERM proteins, and functional effects of PDZ1 expression on cholangiocyte secretion suggest EBP50 is positioned to contribute to the organization and regulation of bile secretory proteins in both hepatocytes and cholangiocytes.

Dopamine (DA) is a key hormone in mammalian sodium homeostasis. DA induces natriuresis via acute inhibition of the renal proximal tubule apical membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. We examined the mechanism by which DA inhibits NHE3 in a renal cell line. DA acutely decreases surface NHE3 antigen in dose- and time-dependent fashion without altering total cellular NHE3. Although DA(1) receptor agonist alone decreases surface NHE3, simultaneous DA(2) agonist synergistically enhances the effect of DA(1). Decreased surface NHE3 antigen, caused by stimulation of NHE3 endocytosis, is dependent on intact functioning of the GTPase dynamin and involves increased binding of NHE3 to the adaptor protein AP2. DA-stimulated NHE3 endocytosis can be blocked by pharmacologic or genetic protein kinase A inhibition or by mutation of two protein kinase A target serines (Ser-560 and Ser-613) on NHE3. We conclude that one mechanism by which DA induces natriuresis is via protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of proximal tubule NHE3 leading to endocytosis of NHE3 via clathrin-coated vesicles.

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) is a cytoplasmic signaling molecule that is recruited to activated growth factor receptors and has been shown to be involved in regulation of stimulated exocytosis and endocytosis. One of the downstream signaling molecules activated by PI 3-kinase is the protein kinase Akt. Previous studies have indicated that PI 3-kinase is necessary for basal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) transport and for fibroblast growth factor-stimulated NHE3 activity in PS120 fibroblasts. However, it is not known whether activation of PI 3-kinase is sufficient to stimulate NHE3 activity or whether Akt is involved in this PI 3-kinase effect. We used an adenoviral infection system to test the possibility that activation of PI 3-kinase or Akt alone is sufficient to stimulate NHE3 activity. This hypothesis was investigated in PS120 fibroblasts stably expressing NHE3 after somatic gene transfer using a replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus containing constitutively active catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase or constitutively active Akt. The adenovirus construct used was engineered with an upstream ecdysone promoter to allow time-regulated expression. Adenoviral infection was nearly 100% at 48 h after infection. Forty-eight hours after infection (24 h after activation of the ecdysone promoter), PI 3-kinase and Akt amount and activity were increased. Increases in both PI 3-kinase activity and Akt activity stimulated NHE3 transport. In addition, a membrane-permeant synthetic 10-mer peptide that binds polyphosphoinositides and increases PI 3-kinase activity similarly enhanced NHE3 transport activity and also increased the percentage of NHE3 on the plasma membrane. The magnitudes of stimulation of NHE3 by constitutively active PI 3-kinase, PI 3-kinase peptide, and constitutively active Akt were similar to each other. These results demonstrate that activation of PI 3-kinase or Akt is sufficient to stimulate NHE3 transport activity in PS120/NHE3 cells.

Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF), an essential protein cofactor in cAMP-mediated inhibition of Na(+)/H(+) exchange transporter 3 (NHE3), facilitates the formation of a signal complex of proteins that includes NHE3, NHERF, and ezrin. This model for NHE3 regulation was developed in fibroblasts and its applicability to epithelial cells remains to be established. Opossum kidney (OK) cells were transfected with either empty vector (control), full-length mouse (m) NHERF(1-355), or a truncated mNHERF(1-325) that lacked ezrin binding and had been demonstrated in fibroblasts to bind NHE3 but not mediate its cAMP-associated inhibition. 8-Bromoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BrcAMP) at 10(-4) M inhibited Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity in control and OK cells expressing wild-type mNHERF(1-355) by >60% but by <10% in cells expressing mNHERF(1-325). NHE3 coimmunoprecipitated with mNHERF(1-325), but cAMP phosphorylation of NHE3 was impaired in cells expressing mNHERF(1-325). The inhibitory effect of hyperosmolality on NHE3 activity and the uptake of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose was the same in all three cell lines. Cell surface expression of NHE3 was not changed by cAMP in any of the cells lines. These data indicate that disruption of the NHERF-ezrin signal complex attenuates the inhibitory effect of cAMP on NHE3 activity in OK cells and provides evidence supporting the proposed model of protein kinase A regulation of NHE3 in epithelial cells.

Biochemical and cellular experiments in fibroblasts have established the requirement for a member of the PDZ motif Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor family of proteins (NHERF and NHERF2) in cAMP-mediated phosphorylation and inhibition of NHE3 activity. NHERF interacts with the actin cytoskeleton through the scaffolding protein ezrin to target a multiprotein signal complex to the plasma membrane. Recent experiments have focused on elements of this model. First, using specific antibodies, NHERF was identified in the renal proximal tubule, where it colocalized with ezrin and NHE3. NHERF2 was seen in glomeruli, the renal vasculature, and collecting duct cells, where it colocalized with ROMK. This distinct nephron localization suggests different physiologic roles for NHERF and NHERF2. Second, the signal-complex model of protein kinase A regulation of NHE3 developed in fibroblasts has been extended to epithelial cells by the development of a dominant-negative opossum kidney cell line expressing an ezrin binding domain-deficient truncation of NHERF. Preliminary studies indicate that these cells have normal basal Na+/H+ exchanger activity but a blunted inhibitory response to cAMP. Third, biochemical, biophysical, and cell experiments have indicated that NHERF binds to itself in a head-to-head configuration, raising the possibility that dimerization may alter the availability of active NHERF. The potential role of the NHERF proteins in the kidney has been expanded by recent studies indicating their involvement in the membrane targeting, trafficking, sorting, and regulation of a range of other transporters, receptors, and signaling proteins. NHERF and related PDZ-containing proteins may serve as adapters for regulation of renal transporters.

The Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3 isoform mediates the entry of Na(+) into epithelial cells of the kidney and gastrointestinal tract. Hormones and pharmacological agents that activate cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) are potent inhibitors of native and ectopically expressed NHE3 in epithelial and Chinese hamster ovary AP-1 cells, respectively. Previous studies have shown that acute inhibition is coupled to direct phosphorylation of the exchanger, but this only partly accounts for the observed effects. In this report, we show that inhibition of NHE3 activity by forskolin, an activator of adenylate cyclase, occurs without changes in surface expression of the exchanger but is associated with altered cytoskeletal structure. This effect resembles that obtained with cytochalasin D or latrunculin B, actin disrupting agents that also inhibit NHE3. Such similarities prompted us to further investigate the relationship between PKA-induced inhibition of the exchanger and changes in the actin cytoskeleton. Inhibition of NHE3 by cytochalasin D does not require PKA, because the inhibitory effect is preserved in a mutant NHE3 that is not phosphorylated by PKA and in cells pretreated with the PKA inhibitor H89. In contrast, involvement of actin in the effect of cAMP on the exchanger is supported by the following observations: (i) jasplakinolide, an F-actin stabilizer, prevents the inhibition caused by forskolin, and (ii) constitutively active forms of RhoA and Rho kinase interfere with actin disruption by forskolin and also decrease inhibition of the transporter. These results suggest that reorganization of the cytoskeleton by PKA is involved in mediating inhibition of NHE3.
