In anesthetized rats, it was observed that intracerebroventricular (I.C.V.) microinjection of angiotensin II (ANG II) in a dose of 16 pg evoked a significant increase in renal sodium excretion which began within 15 min and lasted for 90 min. The activity of Na+.K(+)-ATPase in renal cortex after I.C.V. microinjection of ANG II (1.51 +/- 0.26 mumol Pi/mg Pro.h) was inhibited as compared with that of the control injecting of artificial cerebrospinal fluid (2.66 +/- 0.28 mumol Pi/mg Pro.h, P less than 0.01). There was no change in mean arterial pressure. Within 15 min after I.C.V. administration of ANG II antibody, however, and antinatriuretic period of 135 min and a higher activity of Na+.K(+)-ATPase in renal cortex (3.61 +/- 0.34 mumol Pi/mg Pro.h, P less than 0.05 compared with control) were observed. There was no natriuresis in the animals microinjected with ANG II either into femoral vein or into spinal subarachnoid space. The result of the present investigation suggests that brain endogenous ANG II may possess some natriuretic activity possibly through inhibiting renal Na+.K(+)-ATPase activity.

Epoxygenase and omega- and omega-1-hydroxylases are the major cytochrome P-450-arachidonate (P-450-AA) metabolizing enzymes in renal tissues. We measured P-450-AA metabolism in single nephron segments and determined the tubular localization of this activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Formation of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), the product of AA omega-hydroxylase was specifically localized in the entire proximal tubules (S1, S2, and S3 segments), whereas formation of 19-HETE, the product of omega-1-hydroxylase and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), products of AA epoxygenase, was demonstrable throughout the tubule. Although distribution patterns were similar in SHR and WKY, formation of 19- and 20-HETE in the proximal tubules was higher in SHR, whereas the formation of EETs was not different between the two strains. In the proximal tubules, angiotensin II (ANG II) significantly stimulated epoxygenase activity (EETs formation), whereas parathyroid hormone (PTH) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) had no effect on epoxygenase but significantly stimulated omega-hydroxylase activity (20-HETE formation). Because P-450-AA metabolites have a wide and contrasting spectrum of biological and renal effects, from vasodilation to vasoconstriction and from inhibition to stimulation of Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase, their localization to the specific nephron segments and differential stimulation of their formation by ANG II, PTH, and EGF may contribute not only to renal hemodynamics and blood pressure regulation but also to the regulation of renal sodium and water balance.

The effects on in vitro renin release from rat kidney cortex of various agents which are thought to alter intracellular Ca were investigated. Incubation in Ca-free medium had no effect on basal or isoprenaline-stimulated renin release, but the addition of EDTA stimulated renin release. Angiotensin II (ANG II) and ouabain both inhibited basal and isoprenaline-stimulated renin release, and external Ca was important in this effect. Verapamil reduced the fall in basal renin release and the inhibitory effect of ANG II. In addition, verapamil blocked the inhibition by ANG II, but not by ouabain, of isoprenaline-stimulated renin release. Isoprenaline may stimulate the Na,K-ATPase leading to increased Ca efflux via Na-Ca exchange, whereas ouabain may have the opposite effect. ANG II probably stimulates Ca influx and release from intracellular stores.

Angiotensin II (ANG II) plays an important role in the regulation of solute transport in the kidney, and its effect on proximal tubule sodium and fluid transport has been studied extensively. Although there is evidence that ANG II receptors are present also in the distal nephron and collecting duct, little is known about the physiological role of ANG II in these segments of the renal tubule. Preliminary studies in our laboratory suggest that ANG II may have both structural and functional effects on intercalated cells in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). Therefore, the present study examines the effect of ANG II on H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase) and H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in individual CCD segments microdissected from collagenase-treated rat kidneys. The H(+)-ATPase was measured as bafilomycin-sensitive ATPase activity, and H(+)-K(+)-ATPase was measured as Sch-28080-sensitive ATPase activity, by a fluorometric microassay. Preincubation of CCD segments with ANG II, 10(-10)-10(-5) M, caused a dose-dependent decrease in H(+)-ATPase activity with maximum inhibition at 10(-8) M of ANG II. The inhibitory effect of ANG II was abolished when tubules were incubated with ANG II in the presence of 10(-6) M losartan, indicating that the inhibition was mediated via specific AT1 receptors. The AT2-receptor antagonist, PD-123319, had no effect on the ANG II-mediated inhibition of H(+)-ATPase activity. Preincubation of CCD segments with 10(-10) or 10(-7) M ANG II had no effect on H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In vivo studies were conducted in Na-replete anesthetized male Wistar rats with denervated kidneys. Intrarenal injections of angiotensin-(1-7) [ANG-(1-7) at > 1 nmol/kg produced a shallow dose-dependent decrease in renal blood flow that was mediated by the AT1-type ANG II receptor. A constant intrarenal infusion of ANG-(1-7) at 0.1 and 1 nmol.min-1.kg-1 had minimal effects on renal blood flow and blood pressure and resulted in an elevated urinary excretion of Na and water compared with the time-control saline-infused group. To determine whether ANG-(1-7) may have a direct action on tubular epithelium to inhibit Na reabsorption, we examined the effect of ANG-(1-7) on transport-dependent O2 consumption (Qo2) in fresh suspensions of rat proximal tubules in vitro. ANG-(1-7) inhibited Qo2 in a concentration-dependent fashion with a threshold concentration of approximately 100 pM. Stimulating Na-K-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) activity with nystatin caused a leftward shift of the inhibitory concentration-response curve to ANG-(1-7). The 22% inhibition of Qo2 by 1 pM ANG-(1-7) was abolished by pretreatment with 5 mM ouabain (Na-K-ATPase inhibitor), unaltered by pretreatment with 1 microM PD-123319 (AT2 receptor antagonist), partially attenuated by 1 microM losartan (AT1 receptor antagonist), and abolished by 1 microM [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II (nonselective ANG receptor antagonist). Together these findings indicate that ANG-(1-7) has biological activity in the kidney and, at nonvasoconstrictor doses, results in increased Na and water excretion in vivo. One site of action is the proximal tubule, where ANG-(1-7) can inhibit an ouabain-sensitive Na-K-ATPase exit step in cellular Na transport. This novel inhibitory action of ANG-(1-7) appears to be mediated by an AT1 receptor (minor component) and a non-AT1, non-AT2 ANG receptor (major component).

The cytochrome P-450 pathway is capable of metabolizing arachidonic acid to omega- and subterminal hydroxylase metabolites, 16-, 17-, 18-, 19-, and 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (P-450 HETEs). We have quantitated, by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), endogenous HETEs exiting the rabbit isolated perfused kidney elicited by hormonal stimulation. Kidneys were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit solution containing indomethacin (2.8 microM) to prevent further metabolism of HETEs by cyclooxygenase. Phenylephrine (2-3 microM) was added to the perfusate to raise perfusion pressure to approximately 80 mmHg. Angiotensin II (ANG II), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and bradykinin (BK) were injected into the renal artery and perfusates collected throughout the vasoactive response. After addition of an internal standard, deuterated 19-HETE, perfusates were extracted and purified and P-450 HETEs were derivatized for GC/MS analysis. Under basal conditions, 16-, 18-, 19-, and 20-HETEs were released (range: 50-270 pg/ml), 19-HETE being the highest and fivefold greater than 16-HETE, the lowest. Injection of 50 ng ANG II increased by two- to sixfold P-450 HETE release associated with an increase of 40 +/- 11 mmHg in perfusion pressure. An equipressor dose of AVP (50 ng) did not release P-450 HETEs nor did a 5-micrograms dose of the vasodilator peptide BK, which decreased perfusion pressure by 22 +/- 6 mmHg. Authentic 19- and 20-HETE isomers resulted in dose-dependent dilation, as did 18(R)- and 16(R)-HETEs, whereas their enantiomers and 17-HETE isomers were without effect on perfusion pressure. The vasodilator effects of 18(R)- and 16(R)-HETEs, like 20- and 19-HETEs, were inhibited by indomethacin. Furthermore, P-450 HETEs exhibited both regio- and stereoselective inhibition of proximal tubule adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity. The (S) enantiomers of 16- and 17-HETE potently inhibited activity, whereas their (R) isomers and other P-450 HETEs had negligible effects on ATPase activity. The quantity of HETEs released from the kidney, either under basal conditions or when stimulated by ANG II, and their biological profile suggest that subterminal HETEs may participate in renal mechanisms affecting vasomotion and tubular transport.

Bicarbonate reabsorption was evaluated by stationary microperfusion "in vivo" early distal (ED) and late distal (LD) segments of at kidney. Intratubular pH was recorded by double-barreled of H+ exchange resin/reference (1 M KCl) microelectrodes for the determination of HCO3- reabsorption. In the presence of angiotensin II (ANG II) (10(-12) M), a significant increase in HCO3- reabsorption was observed both in ED (from 0.930 +/- 0.060 to 2.64 +/- 0.210 nmol.cm-2.s-1 in luminally perfused tubules and from 0.850 +/- 0.040 to 2.03 +/- 0.210 nmol.cm-2.s-1 during capillary perfusion) and LD segments from 0.310 +/- 0.130 to 2.16 +/- 0.151 nmol.cm-2.s-1 during luminal perfusion and from 0.530 +/- 0.031 to 2.16 +/- 0.211 nmol.cm-2.s-1 with capillary perfusion). The addition of the AT1-receptor antagonist losartan (10(-6) M) to luminal perfusion blocked luminal ANG II-mediated stimulation in ED and LD segments. 5-(N,N-hexamethylene)amiloride (10(-4) M) added to luminal perfusion inhibited luminal ANG II-mediated stimulation in ED (by 81%) and LD (by 54%) segments. The addition of bafilomycin A1 (2 x 10(-7) M) to luminal perfusion does not affect luminal ANG II-mediated stimulation in ED segments but reduces it in LD segments (by 33%). During the addition of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) (10(-6) M) or ANG II plus ANP in both segments, no significant differences in HCO3- reabsorption were observed. Our results indicate that luminal ANG II acts to stimulate Na+/H+ exchange in ED and LD segments via activation of AT1 receptors, as well as the vacuolar H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase in LD segments. ANP does not affect HCO3- reabsorption in either ED or LD segments and does not impair the stimulation caused by ANG II.

Distal tubules (DT) from sham or five-sixths nephrectomized (Nx) rats were perfused in vivo to evaluate the hypothesis that, after Nx, endogenous angiotensin II (ANG II) modulates DT in vivo bicarbonate reabsorption (JtCO2) via H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase) and Na+/H+ exchange. In Nx rats JtCO2 was increased (65 +/- 7 vs. -24 +/- 21 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.01). Both luminal and intravenous AT1-receptor blockade by losartan reduced Nx DT JtCO2 (41 +/- 6 and 34 +/- 4 pmol.min-1.min-1, respectively, P < 0.05), whereas neither 10(-9) M nor 10(-11) M ANG II luminal perfusion increased JtCO2, suggesting preexisting high endogenous ANG II levels. The Na+/H+ antiporter inhibitors 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)-amiloride and 5-(N,N-dimethyl)-amiloride were without effect. Luminal perfusion of 5 nM concanamycin A, a V-type H(+)-ATPase inhibitor, reduced Nx DT JtCO2 (45 +/- 8 pmol.min-1.mm-1, P < 0.05). In Nx A-type intercalated cells, we demonstrated cellular hypertrophy, elaboration of apical microplicae, and enhanced expression/apical polarization of H(+)-ATPase. Thus ANG II is an important determinant in sustaining brisk DT JtCO2 following Nx and is associated with enhanced expression and A-type intercalated cell apical polarization of H(+)-ATPase.

In order to examine the effects and the interaction of angiotensin II (ANG II, 1 pM) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP, 1 microM) on the kinetics of bicarbonate reabsorption in the rat middle proximal tubule, we performed in vivo experiments using a stopped-flow microperfusion technique with the determination of lumen pH by Sb microelectrodes. These studies confirmed that ANG II added to the luminal or peritubular capillary perfusion fluid stimulates proximal bicarbonate reabsorption and showed that ANP alone does not affect this process, but impairs the stimulation caused by ANG II. We also studied the effects and the interaction of these hormones in cortical distal nephron acidification. Bicarbonate reabsorption was evaluated by the acidification kinetic technique in early (ED) and late (LD) distal tubules in rats during in vivo stopped-flow microperfusion experiments. The intratubular pH was measured with a double-barreled microelectrode with H(+)-sensitive resin. The results indicate that ANG II acted by stimulating Na+/H+ exchange in ED (81%) and LD (54%) segments via activation of AT1 receptors, as well as vacuolar H(+)-ATPase in LD segments (33%). ANP did not affect bicarbonate reabsorption in either segment and, as opposed to what was seen in the proximal tubule, did not impair the stimulation caused by ANG II. To investigate the mechanism of action of these hormones in more detail, we studied cell pH dependence on ANG II and ANP in MDCK cells using the fluorescent probe BCECF. We showed that the velocity of cell pH recovery was almost abolished in the absence of Na+, indicating that it is dependent on Na+/H+ exchange. ANP (1 microM) alone had no effect on this recovery but reversed both the acceleration of H+ extrusion at low ANG II levels (1 pM and 1 nM), and inhibition of H+ extrusion at higher ANG II levels (100 nM). To obtain more information on the mechanism of interaction of these hormones, we also studied their effects on the regulation of intracellular free calcium concentration, [Ca2+]i, monitored with the fluorescent probe Fura-2 in MDCK cells in suspension. The data indicate that the addition of increasing concentrations of ANG II (1 pM to 1 microM) to the cell suspension led to a progressive increase in [Ca2+]i to 2-3 times the basal level. In contrast, the addition of ANP (1 microM) to the cell suspension led to a very rapid 60% decrease in [Ca2+]i and reduced the increase elicited by ANG II, thus modulating the effect of ANG II on [Ca2+]i. These results may indicate a role of [Ca2+]i in the regulation of the H+ extrusion process mediated by Na+/H+ exchange and stimulated/impaired by ANG II. The data are compatible with stimulation of Na+/H+ exchange by increases of [Ca2+]i in the lower range, and inhibition at high [Ca2+]i levels.

Angiotensin IV, [[des-Asp1,Arg2]ANG II or ANG-(3-8)], has been shown to preferentially bind to a novel angiotensin binding site (AT4 receptor). The cellular location and function of this receptor in the rat kidney is unknown. Autoradiography localized AT4 receptors to the cell body and apical membrane of convoluted and straight proximal tubules in the cortex and outer stripe of the outer medulla. ANG IV (0.1 pM-1 microM) elicited a concentration-dependent decrease in transcellular Na+ transport (as measured by proximal tubule O2 consumption rates) in fresh suspensions of control or nystatin-stimulated (bypasses rate-limiting step of apical Na+ entry) rat proximal tubules. The inhibitory effect of 1 pM ANG IV was unaltered by either 1 microM losartan (AT1-receptor antagonist) or 1 microM PD-123319 (AT2-receptor antagonist) and yet was abolished by 1 microM divalinal-ANG IV (AT4-receptor antagonist) or ouabain pretreatment. These results demonstrate that the kidney AT4-receptor system is localized to the proximal tubule and suggests that one potential biological role of this system is in the regulation of Na+ transport by inhibiting a ouabain-sensitive component of Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase activity in the rat.
