Renal ischemic reperfusion injury results in unacceptably high mortality and morbidity during the perioperative period. It has been recently demonstrated that ischemic preconditioning or adenosine receptor modulations attenuate renal ischemic reperfusion injury in vivo. An in vitro model of ischemic renal injury was used in cultured human proximal tubule (HK-2) cells to further elucidate the protective signaling cascades against renal ischemic reperfusion injury. ATP depletion preconditioning (1 h of antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose treatment followed by 1 h of recovery), adenosine, an A(1) adenosine receptor selective agonist, or an A(2a) adenosine receptor selective agonist significantly attenuated subsequent severe ATP depletion injury of HK-2 cells. In contrast, an adenosine receptor antagonist failed to prevent protection induced by ATP depletion preconditioning. Cytoprotection by ATP depletion preconditioning or A(1) adenosine receptor activation was prevented by inhibitors of extracellular signal-regulated mitogen-activated kinases, protein kinase C, and tyrosine kinases. The A(1) and A(2a) adenosine receptor-mediated cytoprotection were also dependent on G(i/o) proteins and PKA activation, respectively. It is concluded that ATP depletion preconditioning and A(1) and A(2a) adenosine receptor activation protect HK-2 cells against severe ATP depletion injury via distinct signaling pathways.

It has been well documented that low concentrations of ANG II (10(-11) to 10(-10) M) stimulate, whereas high concentrations of ANG II (10(-8) to 10(-5) M) inhibit Na(+) transport in proximal tubules of rat and rabbit kidneys. Measured ANG II concentration in proximal tubular fluid is in the nanomolar range. In the present study, we investigated the role of PKC, intracellular Ca(2+), and cAMP in modulating the effects of luminal ANG II on Na(+) absorption by microperfusion techniques in rabbit superficial segment of proximal tubules in vitro. We confirmed that ANG II (10(-9) M) had no change on fluid absorption (J(v)); however, fluid absorption increased significantly when 10(-9) M ANG II and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid-8-(diethylamino)octyl ester (TMB-8), a blocker of intracellular calcium mobilization, were added together. In contrast, ANG II significantly decreased J(v) when PKC was inhibited. When 10(-9) M ANG II was present together with 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-mehtylpiperazine and TMB-8, no significant change of J(v) occurred. Inhibition of endogenous cAMP activity by a PKA inhibitor did not change either basal or ANG II-stimulated fluid absorption. Our results indicate that ANG II regulates Na(+) absorption by a cAMP-independent mechanism and that PKC and intracellular calcium both play a critical role in modulating the effects of physiological concentration of ANG II on proximal tubule transport. Balance between these two cytosolic messengers modulates the effects of ANG II on fluid absorption in the proximal tubule.

Sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor isoform-1 (NHERF-1) and NHERF-2 are two structurally related PDZ-domain-containing protein adapters that effectively transduce cyclic AMP (cAMP) signals that inhibit NHE3, the sodium-hydrogen exchanger isoform present at the apical surface of kidney and gut epithelia. The mouse renal proximal tubule expresses both NHERF isoforms, suggesting their redundant functions as regulators of renal electrolyte metabolism. To define the role of NHERF-1 in the physiological control of NHE3, we analyzed NHE3 activity in isolated brush border membrane (BBM) preparations from renal proximal tubules of wild-type (WT) and NHERF-1 (-/-) mice. Basal Na(+)-H(+) exchange was indistinguishable in BBMs from WT and NHERF-1 (-/-) mice (0.96+/-0.08 and 0.95+/-0.10 nmol/mg protein/10 s, respectively). Activation of membrane bound cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) by cAMP inhibited NHE3 activity in WT BBMs (0.55+/-0.07 nmol/mg protein/10 s or 40+/-9%, P<0.01) but had no discernible effect on Na(+)-H(+) exchange in the NHERF-1 (-/-) BBM (0.97+/-0.07 nmol/mg protein/10 s; P=not significant). This was associated with a significant decrease in cAMP-stimulated phosphorylation of NHE3 immunoprecipitated from solubilized NHERF-1 (-/-) BBMs. As the protein levels for NHE3, NHERF-2, PKA and ezrin were not changed in the NHERF-1 (-/-) BBMs, the data suggest a unique role for NHERF-1 in cAMP-mediated inhibition of NHE3 activity in the renal proximal tubule of the mouse.

Reabsorption of phosphate in the proximal tubule is mainly mediated by the type IIa Na(+)/P(i) cotransporter (NaPi-IIa) and tightly regulated by a variety of factors including dietary phosphate intake and parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH signals through both apical and basolateral PTH receptors and induces the rapid internalization and subsequent degradation of NaPi-IIa. At least two signalling cascades can be activated by PTH: the PLC/PKC and the cAMP/PKA pathways. Recent evidence from OK cell culture suggested the involvement of MAPK kinases in the PTH action. Here we used freshly isolated coronal mouse kidney slices and incubated them in a physiological buffer in the absence and presence of PTH with inhibitors and activators of the various signalling cascades to further study the events leading to internalization of NaPi-IIa. No alterations in the pattern of immunostaining for alpha-tubulin, actin and several brush border membrane proteins demonstrated intactness of the slices over the experimental period. Application of PTH (100 nM) induced a strong decrease of NaPi-IIa brush border staining and internalization after 45 min of incubation. The localization of the Na(+)/sulphate cotransporter (NaSi), however, was not affected. The internalization of NaPi-IIa could be completely prevented by the PKC inhibitor chelerythrine (1 micro M) or the MAPK-kinase (ERK1/2) inhibitor PD098059 (20 micro M). Without PTH both inhibitors alone had no effect. PTH induced phosphorylation of the ERK1/2 MAPK-kinases which was prevented by PD 098059. Separate activation of the cAMP/PKA pathway by 8-Br-cAMP was completely prevented by PD098059 whereas activation of the PLC/PKC pathway by the PKC activator 1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol (DOG) and the PKG pathway by 8-Br-cGMP induced internalization of NaPi-IIa which could be only partly blocked by PD 098059. Inhibition by SB203580 or activation by anisomycin of the p38 kinase pathway had no influence on NaPi-IIa localization under control conditions or after PTH stimulation. Furthermore, the PTH-induced decrease in NaPi-IIa protein could be reduced by PD 098059. These results suggest that the ERK1/2 MAPK kinase pathway plays a central role in the signalling of PTH leading to specific internalization and subsequent degradation of the type II NaPi-IIa cotransporter in the proximal tubule.

The human NBC1 (SLC4A4) gene encodes the electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporters kNBC1 and pNBC1, which are highly expressed in the kidney and pancreas, respectively. The HCO3-:Na+ stoichiometry of these cotransporters is an important determinant of the direction of ion flux. Recently we showed in a mouse proximal tubule (mPCT) cell line expressing kNBC1, that 8-Br-cAMP shifts the stoichiometry of the cotransporter from 3:1 to 2:1 via protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent phosphorylation of Ser982. pNBC1 has the identical carboxy-terminal consensus phosphorylation PKA site (KKGS1026), and an additional site in its amino-terminus (KRKT49). In this study we determined the potential role of these sites in regulating the function of pNBC1. The results demonstrated that in mPCT cells expressing pNBC1, PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Ser1026 following 8-Br-cAMP treatment shifted the stoichiometry from 3:1 to 2:1. The effect was electrostatic in nature as replacing Ser1026 with Asp resulted in a similar stoichiometry shift. In addition to shifting the stoichiometry, 8-Br-cAMP caused a significant increase in the 4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DNDS)-sensitive basolateral membrane conductance (GDS) of cells expressing pNBC1, but not kNBC1. Although, the effect did not involve phosphorylation of Thr49, which was endogenously phosphorylated, replacing this residue with Asp or Ala abolished the 8-Br-cAMP-induced increase in GDS. In the mPEC pancreatic duct cell line, where endogenous pNBC1 functions with a HCO3-:Na+ stoichiometry of 2:1, 8-Br-cAMP increased GDS by ~90 % without altering the stoichiometry or inducing phosphorylation of the cotransporter. The results demonstrate that phosphorylation of Ser1026 mediates the cAMP-dependent shift in the stoichiometry of pNBC1, whereas Thr49 plays an essential role in the cAMP-induced increase in GDS.

The balance and cross-talk between natruretic and antinatruretic hormone receptors plays a critical role in the regulation of renal Na+ homeostasis, which is a major determinant of blood pressure. Dopamine and angiotensin II have antagonistic effects on renal Na+ and water excretion, which involves regulation of the Na+,K+-ATPase activity. Herein we demonstrate that angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulation of AT1 receptors in proximal tubule cells induces the recruitment of Na+,K+-ATPase molecules to the plasmalemma, in a process mediated by protein kinase Cbeta and interaction of the Na+,K+-ATPase with adaptor protein 1. Ang II stimulation led to phosphorylation of the alpha subunit Ser-11 and Ser-18 residues, and substitution of these amino acids with alanine residues completely abolished the Ang II-induced stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase-mediated Rb+ transport. Thus, for Ang II-dependent stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase activity, phosphorylation of these serine residues is essential and may constitute a triggering signal for recruitment of Na+,K+-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane. When cells were treated simultaneously with saturating concentrations of dopamine and Ang II, either activation or inhibition of the Na+,K+-ATPase activity was produced dependent on the intracellular Na+ concentration, which was varied in a very narrow physiological range (9-19 mm). A small increase in intracellular Na+ concentrations induces the recruitment of D1 receptors to the plasma membrane and a reduction in plasma membrane AT1 receptors. Thus, one or more proteins may act as an intracellular Na+ concentration sensor and play a major regulatory role on the effect of hormones that regulate proximal tubule Na+ reabsorption.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH), acting at least in part through a cAMP signaling pathway, regulates three important transporters in the renal proximal convoluted tubule, namely Na-H exchanger 3, Na-K ATPase, and type IIa sodium phosphate cotransporter (NaPi IIa). The regulation of Na-H exchanger 3 by protein kinase A requires a protein co-factor from the sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) family of proteins (NHERF-1 and NHERF-2). However, the role of NHERF in PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase and NaPi IIa has not been explored. For studying the role of NHERF-1 on PTH regulation of these transporters, wild-type mNHERF-1 (1-355) or mNHERF-1 (1-325) lacking the ezrin-binding domain were expressed in proximal tubule-derived opossum kidney cells. PTH inhibited Na-K ATPase activity in cells expressing wild-type NHERF-1 associated with increased serine phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of the transporter. By contrast, in cells expressing mNHERF (1-325), the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of Na-K ATPase was blunted and the activity of the transporter was stimulated in response to PTH. Basal sodium-dependent phosphate transport was lower in cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-325) as compared with cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-355). Nonetheless, there were no differences in PTH-associated inhibition of the activity or the decrease in membrane expression of the NaPi IIa in any of the cell lines. These experiments document for the first time an association between NHERF-1 and PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase in epithelial cells. These experiments also suggest that the mechanism for retrieval of NaPi IIa transporters from the apical membrane in response to cAMP does not require NHERF.

The whole-cell patch-clamp technique was used to examine nonselective conductances in single proximal tubule cells isolated from mouse kidney. Single cells were isolated in either the presence or absence of a cocktail designed to stimulate cAMP. Patches were obtained with Na+ Ringer in the bath and Cs+ Ringer in the pipette. On initially achieving the whole-cell configuration, whole-cell currents were small. In cAMP-stimulated cells, with 5 mM ATP in the pipette solution, whole-cell currents increased with time. The activated current was linear, slightly cation-selective, did not discriminate between Na+ and K+ and was inhibited by 100 microM gadolinium. These properties are consistent with the activation of a nonselective conductance, designated G(NS). Activation of G(NS) was abolished with pipette AMP-PNP, ATP plus alkaline phosphatase or in the absence of ATP. In unstimulated cells G(NS) was activated by pipette ATP together with PKA. These data support the hypothesis that G(NS) is activated by a PKA-mediated phosphorylation event. G(NS) was also activated by a hypertonic shock. However, G(NS) does not appear to be involved in regulatory volume increase (RVI), as RVI was unaffected in the presence of the G(NS) blocker gadolinium. Instead, the ATP sensitivity of G(NS) suggests that it may be regulated by the metabolic state of the renal proximal tubule cell.

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is known to play an important role in modulating renal transport functions. Thus, we investigated the effect of EGF on Ca(2+) uptake and its related signals in the primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells. EGF (50 ng/ml, 1 h) stimulated Ca(2+) uptake. Its effect was blocked by AG 1478 (an EGF receptor antagonist), genistein or herbimycin A (tyrosine kinase inhibitors). EGF increased intracellular cAMP level and SQ 22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), Rp-cAMP (a cAMP analogue), or PKI (a protein kinase A inhibitor) blocked the EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake. EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake was also blocked by neomycin or U-73122 (phospholipase C inhibitors), staurosporine, H-7, or bisindolylmaleimide I (protein kinase C inhibitors), nifedipine or methoxyverapamil (L-type Ca(2+) channel blockers). It increased IPs formation by 167 +/- 5% compare to control within 90 s. On the other hand, EGF increased [(3)H]-arachidonic acid release, which was significantly blocked by PKC inhibitors. In addition, PGE(2), one of cyclooxygenase metabolites, and 5,6-EET, one of cytochrome P-450 metabolites, increased Ca(2+) uptake. These results suggest that cAMP, PLC/PKC, and PLA(2) are involved in EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake.

1. Calcium regulation has been reported to be associated with the development of diabetic nephropathy. Thus, changes in Ca2+ uptake induced by ATP, an important regulator of Ca2+ uptake, in the diabetic condition and related signal pathways were examined in primary cultures of rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTC). 2. Under low (5 mmol/L) glucose conditions, 10-4 mol/L ATP inhibited Ca2+ uptake early on (< 30 min), whereas Ca2+ uptake was stimulated at later time points (> 2 h). However, under high (25 mmol/L) glucose conditions, ATP stimulated both the early and late uptake of Ca2+. 3. The adenylate cyclase inhibitor SQ 22536, the protein kinase (PK) A inhibitor PKI amide 14-22, Rp-cAMP, staurosporine, bisindolylmaleimide I and H-7 (PKC inhibitors) blocked the change in ATP effect on Ca2+ uptake in the presence of 25 mmol/L glucose. However, none one of these drugs blocked the effect of ATP on Ca2+ uptake in the presence of 5 mmol/L. 4. At 25 mmol/L, glucose increased cAMP content and PKC activity, whereas ATP had no effect on either parameter. 5. In conclusion, high glucose levels alter ATP-induced Ca2+ uptake via cAMP and PKC pathways in the PTC.
