The effects of calcitonin (CT), epinephrine and glucagon on the plasma membrane Ca-ATPase activity and the calcium content in the liver were investigated 30 min after a single subcutaneous administration of hormones to rats. Ca-ATPase activity in the plasma membrane fraction was significantly decreased by CT (80 MRC mU/100 g BW), while it was not significantly lowered by insulin (100 mU/100 g BW), epinephrine (100 micrograms/100 g BW), glucagon (50 micrograms/100 g BW), or parathyroid hormone (25 U/100 g BW). The calcium content in the liver was markedly increased by CT, while it was not significantly elevated by epinephrine or glucagon. Meanwhile, the decrease of Ca-ATPase activity in the plasma membrane fraction produced by CT was significantly prevented by simultaneous administration of epinephrine or glucagon, and also the increase in liver calcium was noticeably interfered with. The present results suggests that the action of CT on liver calcium may differ from that of epinephrine or glucagon which causes an increase in cyclic AMP in the liver cells.

Effects of elevated potassium on bone resorption and on the inhibition by ouabain of parathyroid hormone (PTH)-stimulated resorption were studied in neonatal mouse calvaria, fetal mouse limb bones, and fetal rat limb bones. Ouabain inhibited PTH-stimulated resorption, and K at least partially reversed the inhibition by ouabain in all three systems. However, in contrast to calvaria, neither limb bone system was stimulated to resorb by increased K. Although the reversal of ouabain inhibition in all three systems was likely mediated by an effect on Na-K-ATPase, the resorptive effect of K alone must occur by a different mechanism because it was seen only in the calvaria. The production of prostaglandins may play a partial role in the mechanism of the stimulation of Ca release from calvaria by K. Potassium (35 mM) stimulated production of PGE2 by calvaria but not by limb bones. Indomethacin inhibited the increase in PGE2 in calvaria and partially blocked the stimulated bone resorption observed in response to K. The fetal rat limb bone cultures also differed from the mouse calvaria in being more readily inhibited by increased osmolarity. Thus, secondary effects may be responsible for the variant responses of different bone tissues to certain stimuli.

The kidneys play a vital role in mineral homeostasis. In this review, the handling of calcium and the methods currently applied to measuring its intracellular concentration are discussed. The bulk of calcium absorption proceeds in proximal tubules, with smaller fractions recovered by thick ascending limbs, distal convoluted tubules, and connecting tubules. Hormonally regulated transcellular calcium absorption is essentially limited to distal convoluted and connecting tubules. At physiological concentrations, parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, and vitamin D increase net calcium absorption. Calcium absorption by polarized epithelial cells is a two-step process wherein calcium enters the cell across apical plasma membranes and exits across basolateral membranes. Recent electrophysiological and pharmacological experiments demonstrate that apical entry is mediated by calcium channels, which are modestly calcium selective, sensitive to dihydropyridine-type calcium channel blockers, and exhibit a wide range of single-channel conductances. Cellular calcium efflux is mediated by Ca(2+)-ATPase and by Na+/Ca2+ exchange. Ca(2+)-ATPase activity is highest in segments that exhibit significant rates of active calcium absorption. Multiple plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase isoforms have been found in the kidney. Several renal Na+/Ca2+ exchange isoforms have been identified, and their role in effecting calcium efflux is under investigation.

The synthesis of Calcium Green C18, a lipophilic fluorescent calcium-sensitive dye, and its use as a monitor of Ca2+ efflux from cells is described. This indicator consists of a Calcium Green-1 molecule conjugated to a lipophilic 18-carbon alkyl chain which will intercalate into cell membranes. The Kd of the indicator for Ca2+ in aqueous solution (pH 7.2, 22 degrees C, ionic strength 0.1 M) is 0.23 +/- 0.04 microM and in the presence of liposomes is 0.062 +/- 0.007 microM. Due to its high negativity, the calcium chelating fluorophore faces the cell exterior, when loaded under a defined set of conditions. The dye was found largely on the surface of the cells when loaded at a concentration of 5 microM for 10 min at 37 degrees C. Five minutes after introduction of EGTA, 83-95% fluorescence disappeared, indicating that most of the fluorophore was on the cell surface. Photobleaching was minimal (3-13%). A confocal laser scanning microscope was used to detect and quantify fluorescence. Internalized dye was apparent in cells loaded for longer times (30-60 min) and in membrane-impaired cells, as shown by uptake of propidium iodide. Under defined confocal laser scanning microscope settings, a transient fluorescence at the periphery of approximately 30% of the cells was observed following 10(-8) M parathyroid hormone treatment, indicating the presence of outwardly directed calcium transport across the plasma membrane. Calcium efflux usually lasted 7-10 min, peaking at around 2-3 min. Changes in cell shape were also observed. Calcium efflux was shown to be sensitive to (a) 10 microM quercetin and 10 microM vanadate, partially specific inhibitors of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase, to (b) 0.1 mM trifluoperazine, an agent which renders calmodulin ineffective, and to (c) 10 mM neomycin sulfate, which blocks release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Thapsigargin (5 microM), an inhibitor of Ca(2+)-ATPase of the endoplasmic reticulum, prolonged fluorescence. These observations indicate that cell surface fluorescence was due to the capture of Ca2+ by Calcium Green C18 after Ca2+ had been translocated across osteoblast plasma membranes. Involvement of the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase, known to be present in osteoblasts in substantial amounts, is implicated.

The plasma membrane enzyme (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is hormonally regulated and may participate in Ca2+ signaling by removing excess Ca2+ from the cell. Therefore, observations of a hormone-specific loss of insulin stimulation of ATPase in kidney membranes from non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) rats may reflect their insulin-resistant state. Consequently, to evaluate whether additional insulin-resistant conditions are associated with impaired function of ATPase and with loss of regulation of the enzyme by insulin, studies were extended to investigate (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activities and hormonal regulation of the enzyme in kidney basolateral membranes from obese and lean Zucker rats. (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity was lower in membranes from obese rats compared with lean rats. Maximal velocity (Vmax) of the enzyme activity was 29.2 +/- 2.6 nmol Pi/mg/min in obese rats versus 57.2 +/- 6.5 in lean rats (P < .05). However, the affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+ was similar in obese and lean rats (Km Ca2+, 0.23 +/- 0.025 v 0.23 +/- 0.032 mumol/L Ca2+). Also, the Km for ATP of the enzyme was similar in membranes from obese and lean rats. Insulin, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) stimulated the ATPase activity in membranes from lean rats in a dose-dependent manner (15% to 28%). Also, the protein kinase C (PKC) stimulator 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) increased the ATPase activity in membranes from lean rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have previously shown that parathyroid hormone (PTH)-(1-34) or its analogue PTH-(3-34) inhibits proximal tubule (PT) Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase) activity independently of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate generation. The present study used PT suspensions to investigate the signaling pathway responsible for this hormonal action. PTH-(1-34) and PTH-(3-34) significantly increased the release of arachidonic acid (AA) compared with control tubules, suggesting activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2). AA, 10(-6) M, mimicked the inhibition of the pump by 10(-8) M PTH-(3-34), and together were not additive. Eicosatetraynoic acid, 3 microM, a general inhibitor of AA metabolism, blocked the PTH action. Indomethacin, 10 microM, an inhibitor of AA-dependent cyclooxygenase, did not prevent the PTH action, but 2 microM 7-ethoxyresorufin, a cytochrome P-450 inhibitor, prevented the PTH effect. 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), the main product of P-450 metabolism in PT, inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity to the same extent as 10(-8) M PTH-(3-34), was not additive with PTH, and was maximally inhibitory at 10(-7) M. To further investigate the signaling pathway responsible for PTH-activated PLA2, we tested the effect of PTH on cytoplasmic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). PTH-(1-34), 10(-7) M, did not affect [Ca2+]i, although 10(-8) M angiotensin II promoted a Ca2+ transient. Treatment of PT with pertussis toxin (PTX) did not prevent the PTH action.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The plasma membrane enzyme (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-adenosine triphosphatase [(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase] is hormonally regulated, and may participate in Ca2+ signaling by removing excess Ca2+ from the cell. Insulin increases ATPase activity in kidney cortical basolateral membranes (BLM) from normal rats, but fails to do so in membranes from insulin-resistant non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) rats. To investigate mechanisms of insulin regulation of ATPase and to evaluate whether the loss of this regulation in diabetes is hormone-specific and depends on blood glucose levels, (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase function and its hormonal regulation were studied in kidney BLM from rats with mild and severe NIDDM. Km values for ATP and Ca2+ affinity of the ATPase were similar in diabetic and control rats, but the maximal velocity (Vmax) of the enzyme was higher in diabetic groups. Insulin, the protein kinase C (PKC) stimulator 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) all increased the ATPase activity in BLM from controls by increasing the enzyme's affinity for Ca2+. A protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor (H8 in low concentrations) abolished cAMP and PTH effects, but not those of insulin, whereas the PKC inhibitors (sphingosine and high concentrations of H8) did abolish the effects of insulin. Stimulations of ATPase activity by insulin and by PTH and cAMP were additive. Insulin and TPA lost their stimulatory effects on ATPase in BLM from rats with either mild or severe NIDDM, but PTH and cAMP maintained their stimulatory effects in these membranes. The data show [1] (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is increased in NIDDM, and a hormone-specific loss of insulin stimulation of ATPase occurs; (2) these defects are not dependent on the level of glycemia; and (3) the stimulatory effects of insulin on the ATPase may be mediated in part via PKC. We suggest that the hormone-specific defect in insulin regulation of ATPase seen in the NIDDM rats may contribute to their insulin resistance.

We recently reported a novel intracellular mechanism of Na-K-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) regulation in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) by agents that increase cell adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), which involves stimulation of protein kinase A (PKA) and phospholipase A2 (PLA2). We now determined whether this mechanism also operates in other nephron segments. In the medullary thick ascending limb (MTAL) dopamine, the DA1 agonist fenoldopam, forskolin, or dibutyryl-cAMP inhibited Na-K-ATPase activity, similar to results in CCD. In both segments this effect was blocked by 20-residue inhibitory peptide (IP20), a peptide inhibitor of PKA, but not by staurosporine, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. PKC activators phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, and 1,2-myristate 13-acetate, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, and 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol had no effect on Na-K pump activity in either CCD or MTAL. In contrast, all three PKC activators inhibited pump activity in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), an effect reproduced only by dopamine or by parathyroid hormone [PTH-(1-34)]. In PCT the pump inhibition by dopamine or PTH-(1-34) was abolished by staurosporine but not by IP20. The PLA2 inhibitor mepacrine prevented the effect of all agents, and arachidonic acid produced a dose-dependent pump inhibition in each of the three segments studied. We conclude that intracellular mechanisms of Na-K-ATPase regulation differ along the nephron, as they involve activation of PKA in CCD and MTAL and of PKC in PCT. These two pathways probably share a common mechanism in stimulating PLA2, arachidonic acid release, and production of eicosanoids in both the proximal and distal nephron.

Antidiuretic hormone and parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibit HCO3- absorption by the rat medullary thick ascending limb (MTAL). Studies were performed on rat MTAL tubule suspension to specify the H(+)-HCO3- membrane transporters affected by these hormones and the implicated intracellular second messengers. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) and PTH stimulated cell adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production with a relative rank order potency of AVP > rat PTH-(1-34) > bovine PTH-(1-84). Significant cell acidification in HCO3- -CO2-free medium, monitored in 2'7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6')-carboxyfluorescein-loaded cells, was caused by 0.1 nM AVP, 1 nM rat PTH-(1-34), but not by < 100 nM bovine PTH-(1-84), as well as by 10(-4) M 8-bromo-cAMP and 2 x 10(-5) M forskolin; 10 nM AVP or rat PTH-(1-34) did not alter the intracellular pH when Na+/H+ antiport was inhibited by 2 mM amiloride. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2, 10(-6) M), which inhibited AVP-stimulated cell cAMP production, reduced by 35% the cell acidification response to 10 nM AVP. AVP and 8-bromo-cAMP inhibited Na+/H+ antiport-dependent cell pH recovery from intracellular acidification, which was explained by a decrease in the Vmax of the antiporter. AVP did not directly affect K(+)-HCO3- cotransport and plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase of rat MTAL cells. Cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i), monitored in fura-2-loaded cells, was unaffected by up to 1 nM AVP, 100 nM PTH, glucagon, calcitonin, and oxytocin, and 1 microM PGE2; however, 100 nM AVP, but not 1-desamino-8-D-AVP (dDAVP), caused a peak increase in [Ca2+]i, even in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, and stimulated cell accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on acid/base transport in isolated rabbit renal proximal tubule S3 segment was investigated with double-barreled and conventional microelectrodes. PTH (10 nM) induced a small depolarization and enhanced the initial rates of cell pH (pHi) increase and cell Cl- ([Cl-]i) decrease in response to bath Cl- removal by 28.0 +/- 2.1% and 31.0 +/- 6.4% respectively. The calculated initial HCO3- influx to bath Cl- removal was also enhanced by 28%. On the other hand, PTH reduced the initial rate of pHi decrease to luminal Na+ removal in the absence of HCO3-/CO2 by 20.4 +/- 3.9%. The PTH-induced depolarization was not accompanied with changes in steady-state pHi or [Cl-]i levels, but was greatly attenuated in the presence of ouabain (0.1 mM). Either dibutyryl-cAMP (0.1 mM) plus theophylline (1 mM) or forskolin (10 microM) alone could reproduce all the effects of PTH. These results indicate that (a) PTH inhibits the luminal Na+/H+ exchanger but stimulates the basolateral Cl-/HCO3- exchanger in the S3 segment; (b) the PTH-induced depolarization largely results from inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and (c) all these effects are at least partly mediated by a cAMP-dependent mechanism.
