Our previous studies demonstrated that a green fluorescent protein-tagged parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) receptor stably expressed in LLCPK-1 cells undergoes agonist-dependent internalization into clathrin-coated pits. The subcellular localization of the internalized PTH/PTHrP receptor is not known. In the present study, we explored the intracellular pathways of the internalized PTH/PTHrP receptor. Using immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy, we show that the internalized receptors localize at a juxtanuclear compartment identified as the Golgi apparatus. The receptors do not colocalize with lysosomes. Furthermore, whereas the internalized receptors exhibit rapid recycling, treatment with proton pump inhibitors (bafilomycin-A1 and concanamycin A) or brefeldin A, Golgi disrupting agents, reduces PTH/PTHrP receptor recycling. Together, these data indicate an important role for the vacuolar-type hydrogen-ATPase and the Golgi apparatus in postendocytic PTH/PTHrP receptor recovery.

The Na(+)/phosphate cotransporter NaPi-IIa (SLC34A1) is the major transporter mediating the reabsorption of P(i) in the proximal tubule. Expression and activity of NaPi-IIa is regulated by several factors, including parathyroid hormone, dopamine, metabolic acidosis, and dietary P(i) intake. Dopamine induces natriuresis and phosphaturia in vivo, and its actions on several Na(+)-transporting systems such as NHE3 and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase have been investigated in detail. Using freshly isolated mouse kidney slices, perfused proximal tubules, and cultured renal epithelial cells, we examined the acute effects of dopamine on NaPi-IIa expression and localization. Incubation of isolated kidney slices with the selective D(1)-like receptor agonists fenoldopam (10 microM) and SKF-38393 (10 microM) for 1 h induced NaPi-IIa internalization and reduced expression of NaPi-IIa in the brush border membrane (BBM). The D(2)-like selective agonist quinpirole (1 microM) had no effect. The D(1) and D(2) agonists did not affect the renal Na(+)/sulfate cotransporter NaSi in the BBM of the proximal tubule. Studies with isolated perfused proximal tubules demonstrated that activation of luminal, but not basolateral, D(1)-like receptors caused NaPi-IIa internalization. In kidney slices, inhibition of PKC (1 microM chelerythrine) or ERK1/2 (20 microM PD-098089) pathways did not prevent the fenoldopam-induced internalization. Inhibition with the PKA blocker H-89 (10 microM) abolished the effect of fenoldopam. Immunoblot demonstrated a reduction of NaPi-IIa protein in BBMs from kidney slices treated with fenoldopam. Incubation of opossum kidney cells transfected with NaPi-IIa-green fluorescent protein chimera shifted fluorescence from the apical membrane to an intracellular pool. In summary, dopamine induces internalization of NaPi-IIa by activation of luminal D(1)-like receptors, an effect that is mediated by PKA.

It was demonstrated that expression of murine sodium hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF-1) lacking the ezrin-binding domain blocks parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase in opossum kidney (OK) cells. The hypothesis that the NHERF-1 PDZ domains contribute to PTH regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase was tested by comparison of PTH regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase in wild-type OK (OK-WT) cells, NHERF-deficient OKH cells, OK-WT transfected with siRNA for NHERF (NHERF siRNA OK-WT), and OKH cells that were stably transfected with full-length NHERF-1 or constructs with mutated PDZ domains. OKH cells and NHERF siRNA OK-WT showed decreased expression of NHERF-1 but equivalent expression of ezrin and Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit when compared with OK-WT cells. PTH decreased Na+,K+-ATPase activity and stimulated phosphorylation of the Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1 in OK-WT cells but not in NHERF-deficient cells. Rubidium (86Rb) uptake was equivalent in OK-WT, OKH, and OKH cells that were transfected with all but the double PDZ domain mutants. PTH decreased 86Rb uptake significantly in OK-WT but not in OKH cells. PTH also significantly inhibited 86Rb uptake in OKH cells that were transfected with full-length NHERF-1 or NHERF-1 with mutated PDZ 2 but not in OKH cells that were transfected with mutated PDZ 1. Transfection with NHERF expressing both mutated PDZ domains resulted in diminished basal 86Rb uptake that was not inhibited further by PTH. PTH stimulated protein kinase Calpha activity and alpha1 subunit phosphorylation in OK-WT but not in NHERF-deficient cells. Transfection of OKH cells with NHERF constructs that contained an intact PDZ1 domain restored PTH-stimulated protein kinase Calpha activity and alpha1 subunit phosphorylation. These results demonstrate that NHERF-1 is necessary for PTH-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity and that the inhibition is mediated through the PDZ1, not PDZ2, domain.

The present study was undertaken to examine the effects of an oil extract of garlic on the in vivo intestinal transference of calcium, and also to verify its role in maintaining the bone mineral content and bone tensile strength in an ovariectomized rat model of osteoporosis. The results suggest that, in this experimental model, oil extract of garlic promotes intestinal transference of calcium by modulating the activities of both intestinal alkaline phosphatase and Ca(2+) activated ATPase. Also the observed low bone mineral content and low bone tensile strength in these rats were significantly restored by garlic oil supplementation. Further, garlic oil supplementation was able to revive partially the bilateral ovariectomy-induced decrease in the serum estrogen titer. The serum parathyroid hormone level, however, was found unaltered in these rats. The garlic oil supplemented partial recovery in serum estrogen titer in bilaterally ovariectomized rat was found to be persistently associated with enhanced calcium transference and better preservation of bone mineral content. The results of this study propose that the phytoestrogenic efficacy of an oil extract of garlic prevents ovarian hormone deficiency induced bone mineral loss possibly by promoting intestinal transference of calcium through the partial revival of the serum estrogen titer.

Chronic metabolic acidosis results in a negative calcium balance as a result of bone resorption and renal calcium loss. However, reports on the changes in intestinal calcium transport have been controversial. The present investigation therefore aimed to study the effects of chronic metabolic acidosis induced by 1.5% NH(4)Cl administration on the three components of duodenal calcium transport, namely, solvent drag-induced, transcellular active, and passive paracellular components, in rats using an in vitro Ussing chamber technique. The relative mRNA expression of genes related to duodenal calcium transport was also determined. We found that 21-day chronic metabolic acidosis stimulated solvent drag-induced and transcellular active duodenal calcium transport but not passive paracellular calcium transport. Our results further demonstrated that an acute direct exposure to serosal acidic pH, in contrast, decreased solvent drag-induced calcium transport in a pH-dependent fashion but had no effect on transcellular active calcium transport. Neither the transepithelial resistance nor duodenal permeability to Na(+), Cl(-), and Ca(2+) via the passive paracellular pathway were altered by chronic metabolic acidosis, suggesting that widening of the tight junction and changes in the charge-selective property of the tight junction did not occur. Thus the enhanced duodenal calcium transport observed in chronic metabolic acidosis could have resulted from a long-term adaptation, possibly at the molecular level. RT-PCR study revealed that chronic metabolic acidosis significantly increased the relative mRNA expression of duodenal genes associated with solvent drag-induced transport, i.e., the beta(1)-subunit of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, zonula occludens-1, occludin, and claudin-3, and with transcellular active transport, i.e., transient receptor potential vanilloid family Ca(2+) channels 5 and 6 and plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform 1b. Total plasma calcium and free ionized calcium and magnesium concentrations were also increased, whereas serum parathyroid hormone and 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) levels were not changed. The results indicated that 21-day chronic metabolic acidosis affected the calcium metabolism in rats partly through enhancing the mRNA expression of crucial duodenal genes involved in calcium absorption, thereby stimulating solvent drag-induced and transcellular active calcium transport in the duodenum.

The effect of regucalcin (RC), a regulatory protein in intracellular signaling pathway, on the gene expression of various mineral ion transport-related proteins was investigated using the cloned normal rat kidney proximal tubular epithelial NRK52E cells overexpressing RC. NRK52E cells (wild-type) and stable RC/pCXN2 transfectant were cultured for 72 h in medium containing 5% bovine serum (BS) to obtain subconfluent monolayers. After culture for 72 h, cells were further cultured 24-72 h in a medium containing either vehicle, aldosterone (10(-8) or 10(-7) M), or parathyroid hormone (PTH) (1-34) (10(-8) or 10(-7) M) without BS. RC was markedly localized in the nucleus of transfectants. Overexpression of RC caused a significant increase in rat outer medullary K(+) channel (ROMK) mRNA expression, while it caused a remarkable decrease in L-type Ca(2+) channel and calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) mRNA expressions. Overexpression of RC did not have an effect on epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), Na, K-ATPase (alpha-subunit), Type II Na-Pi cotransporter (NaPi-IIa), angiotensinogen, Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger, and glyceroaldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) mRNA expressions. Hormonal effect on gene expression, moreover, was examined. Culture with aldosterone (10(-8) or 10(-7) M) caused a significant increase in ENaC, Na, K-ATPase, and ROMK mRNA expressions in the wild-type cells. Those increases were weakened in the transfectants. Culture with PTH (10(-8) or 10(-7) M) significantly decreased NaPi-IIa mRNA expression in the wild-type cells. This effect was not altered in the transfectants. PTH significantly decreased angiotensinogen mRNA expression in the wild-type cells and the transfectants, while aldosterone had no effect. Culture with PTH (10(-8) or 10(-7) M) caused a significant decrease in L-type Ca(2+) channel and CaR mRNA expressions in the wild-type cells, while the hormone significantly increased Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger mRNA expression. The effects of PTH on L-type Ca(2+) channel, CaR, and Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger mRNA expressions were also seen in the transfectants. This study demonstrates that overexpression of RC caused a remarkable increase in its nuclear localization, and that it has suppressive effects on the gene expression of L-type Ca(2+) channel or CaR, which regulates intracellular Ca(2+) signaling, among various regulator proteins for mineral ions in NRK52E cells.

Extracellular calcium concentrations in humans are thousands times higher than within cells. Maintenance of such gradient requires specific regulation including intracellular stores, Ca binding proteins and transmembrane protein systems. The aim of the study was to estimate PMCA (plasma membrane Ca-transporting adenosine triphosphatase; ATPase 3.6.1.38) activity and calcium homeostasis in erythrocytes of children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Twenty-one children wth CKD stages 1-3 (group I) and 18 healthy children (group II) were examined. Group I was divided into two subgroups: Ia (8 patients with normal intact parathyroid hormone, iPTH, serum levels) and Ib (13 patients with increased iPTH). iPTH, urea, creatinine, inorganic phosphorus, cytosolic Ca2+ in red blood cells (R-Ca), and PMCA were determined. Significantly elevated R-Ca levels were observed in children from subgroup Ib in comparison with group II and subgroup Ia. The lowest activity of PMCA was found in subgroup Ia and Ib in comparison with group II. There was a negative correlation between PMCA and R-Ca in group Ia and Ib (r=-0.8, r=-0.9, respectively). In children with CKD treated conservatively, activity of PMCA in erythrocytes is disturbed. An increase in R-Ca and decrease in PMCA activity are also observed.

The osteoclast is a specialized multinucleated variant of the macrophage family. It degrades mineralized tissue, and is required for modeling and remodeling of bone. The osteoclast has long been known to require vitamin D for its differentiation and to be regulated by parathyroid hormone via circulating Ca(2+) levels. Two local signals important in osteoclast survival and differentiation, CSF-1 and RANKL, were characterized by the mid-1990 s. A basic framework of specialized cell attachment and resorption molecules was also clear by that time, including the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin, the key adhesion molecule of the mature osteoclast, the highly expressed vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase that drives acid secretion to dissolve mineral, and cathepsin K, the predominant acid proteinase for collagenolysis. Recently, additional detail has been added to this framework, showing that the osteoclast has more complex regulation than was previously believed. These include the findings that one component of the V-H(+)-ATPase is unique to the osteoclast, that chloride transport and probably Cl(-)/H(+) exchange are also required for mineral degradation, and that additional receptors besides RANK and Fms regulate osteoclast formation and survival. Additional receptors include estrogen receptor-alpha, TNF-family receptors other than RANK, and, at least in some cases, glycoprotein hormone receptors including the TSH-R and the FSH-R. Challenges in understanding osteoclast biology include how the signalling mechanisms function cooperatively. Recent findings suggest that there is a network of cytoplasmic adapters, including Gab-2 and BCAR1, which are modified by multiple signalling mechanisms and which serve to integrate the signalling pathways.

Apicularens A and B were isolated from the myxobacterial genus Chondromyces apiculatus JW184. Apicularen A inhibited bafilomycin A1-sensitive ATP-dependent proton transport into microsome vesicles more potently than apicularen B. Bone resorption in cultures of mouse calvariae induced by human parathyroid hormone (PTH) or interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) was inhibited by apicularen A at 10 and 100 nM, while apicularen B had no effect. The bisphosphonate incadronate inhibited bone resorption at 100 nM, being less effective than apicularen A. Our findings indicate that apicularen A inhibits bone resorption induced by PTH or IL-1beta more potently than apicularen B, probably due to inhibition of the V-ATPase.

alpha-klotho was identified as a gene associated with premature aging-like phenotypes characterized by short lifespan. In mice, we found the molecular association of alpha-Klotho (alpha-Kl) and Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K+-ATPase) and provide evidence for an increase of abundance of Na+,K+-ATPase at the plasma membrane. Low concentrations of extracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]e) rapidly induce regulated parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion in an alpha-Kl- and Na+,K+-ATPase-dependent manner. The increased Na+ gradient created by Na+,K+-ATPase activity might drive the transepithelial transport of Ca2+ in cooperation with ion channels and transporters in the choroid plexus and the kidney. Our findings reveal fundamental roles of alpha-Kl in the regulation of calcium metabolism.
