We have previously demonstrated that adenosine (Ado) reverses the stimulatory effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) on Na(+)-ATPase activity via the A(2A) receptor. In this work, the molecular mechanism involved in Ado-induced shutdown in the signaling pathway triggered by 10(-8)M Ang II was investigated. It was observed that: (1) both 10(-12)M PMA (a PKC activator) and 5x10(-8)M U73122 (an inhibitor of PI-PLCbeta) prevent the reversion effect induced by 10(-6)M Ado (only observed in the presence of 10(-6)M DPCPX (an A(1) receptor antagonist)) on Ang II-stimulated Na(+)-ATPase and PKC activities; (2) Ang II-stimulated PKC activity was reversed by 10(-6)M forskolin (an adenylyl cyclase activator) or 10(-8)M PKA inhibitory peptide and 10(-8)M DMPX (an A(2) receptor-selective antagonist). Considering that PMA prevents the inhibitory effect of Ado on Ang II-stimulated Na(+)-ATPase and PKC activities, it is likely that the PMA-induced effect, i.e. PKC activation, is downstream of the target for Ado-induced reversion of Ang II stimulation of Na(+)-ATPase activity. We investigated the hypothesis that PI-PLCbeta could be the target for Ado-induced PKA activation. Our data demonstrate that Ang II-stimulated PI-PLCbeta activity was reversed by Ado or 10(-7)M cAMP; the reversibility of the Ado-induced effect was prevented by either DMPX or PKA inhibitory peptide. These data demonstrate that Ado-induced PKA activation reduces Ang II-induced stimulation of PI-PLCbeta.

The extracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD3), a secretory copper-containing enzyme, regulates angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertension by modulating levels of extracellular superoxide anion. The present study was designed to determine the role of the copper transporter Menkes ATPase (MNK) in Ang II-induced SOD3 activity and hypertension in vivo. Here we show that chronic Ang II infusion enhanced systolic blood pressure and vascular superoxide anion production in MNK mutant (MNK(mut)) mice as compared with those in wild-type mice, which are associated with impaired acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in MNK(mut) mice. These effects in MNK(mut) mice are rescued by infusion of the SOD mimetic Tempol. By contrast, norepinephrine-induced hypertension, which is not associated with an increase in vascular superoxide anion production, is not affected in MNK(mut) mice. Mechanistically, basal and Ang II infusion-induced increase in vascular SOD3-specific activity is significantly inhibited in MNK(mut) mice. Coimmunoprecipitation analysis reveals that Ang II stimulation promotes association of MNK with SOD3 in cultured vascular smooth muscle cell and in mouse aortas, which may contribute to SOD3-specific activity by increasing copper delivery to SOD3 through MNK. In summary, MNK plays an important role in modulating Ang II-induced hypertension and endothelial function by regulating SOD3 activity and vascular superoxide anion production and becomes a potential therapeutic target for oxidant stress-dependent cardiovascular diseases.

Oxidative stress causes changes in angiotensin (Ang) type 1 receptor (AT1R) function, which contributes to hypertension. Ang II affects blood pressure via maintenance of sodium homeostasis by regulating renal Na(+) absorption through its effects on Na/K-ATPase (NKA). At low concentrations, Ang II stimulates NKA; higher concentrations inhibit the enzyme. We examined the effect of oxidative stress on renal AT1R function involved in biphasic regulation of NKA. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received tap water (control) and 30 mmol/L of L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an oxidant, with and without 1 mmol/L of Tempol (antioxidant) for 2 weeks. BSO-treated rats exhibited increased oxidative stress, AT1R upregulation, and hypertension. In proximal tubules from control rats, Ang II exerted a biphasic effect on NKA activity, causing stimulation of the enzyme at picomolar and inhibition at micromolar concentrations. However, in BSO-treated rats, Ang II caused stimulation of NKA at both of the concentrations. The effect of Ang II was abolished by the AT1R antagonist candesartan and the mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor UO126, whereas the Ang type 2 receptor antagonist PD-123319 and NO synthase inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester had no effect. The inhibitory effect of Ang II was sensitive to candesartan and N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, whereas PD-123319 and UO126 had no effect. In BSO-treated rats, Ang II showed exaggerated stimulation of NKA, mitogen-activated protein kinase, proline-rich-tyrosine kinase 2, and NADPH oxidase but failed to activate NO signaling. Tempol reduced oxidative stress, normalized AT1R signaling, unmasked the biphasic effect on NKA, and reduced blood pressure in BSO-treated rats. In conclusion, oxidative stress-mediated AT1R upregulation caused a loss of NKA biphasic response and hypertension. Tempol normalized AT1R signaling and blood pressure.

We previously demonstrated that Ang II inhibits the renal plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase. In the present work we have studied the effect of Ang II, at concentrations similar to those found in the renal interstitium, on the Ca(2+)-ATPase from proximal tubule cells. High Ang II concentration (5 x 10(-7) mol/L) led to the recovery of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity previously inhibited by 50% at low Ang II concentration (10(-10) mol/L). Reactivation occurred in parallel with: (i) formation of only two dead-end metabolites [Ang-(3-4) and Tyr] after incubation of isolated membranes with micromolar Ang II; and (ii) dissociation of constitutive AT(1)R/AT(2)R heterodimers, which are preserved with 10(-10) mol/L Ang II. When the membranes were incubated with 10(-14) mol/L Ang-(3-4), inhibition by 10(-10) mol/L Ang II was no longer observed. The counteracting effect of Ang-(3-4) was abolished by PD123319, an antagonist of AT(2)R, and mimicked by CGP42112A, an agonist of AT(2)R. Ang-(1-7) is an intermediate in the formation of Ang-(3-4) via a pathway involving angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and complete dipeptide breakdown to Tyr and Val is impaired by low Ang II. We conclude that Ang-(3-4) may be a physiological regulator of active Ca(2+) fluxes in renal proximal cells by acting within the renin-angiotensin axis.

Long-term effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) on vacuolar H(+)-ATPase were studied in a SV40-transformed cell line derived from rat proximal tubules (IRPTC). Using pH(i) measurements with the fluorescent dye BCECF, the hormone increased Na(+)-independent pH recovery rate from an NH(4)Cl pulse from 0.066 +/- 0.014 pH U/min (n = 7) to 0.14 +/- 0.021 pH U/min (n = 13; p < 0.05) in 10 h Ang II (10(-9) M)-treated cells. The increased activity of H(+)-ATPase did not involve changes in mRNA or protein abundance of the B2 subunit but increased cell surface expression of the V-ATPase. Inhibition of tyrosine kinase by genistein blocked Ang II-dependent stimulation of H(+)-ATPase. Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) by wortmannin and of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) by SB 203580 also blocked this effect. Thus, long-term exposure of IRPTC cells to Ang II causes upregulation of H(+)-ATPase activity due, at least in part, to increased B2 cell surface expression. This regulatory pathway is dependent on mechanisms involving tyrosine kinase, p38 MAPK, and PI3K activation.

Angiotensin II (Ang II) inhibits the cardiac sarcolemmal Na(+)-K(+) pump via protein kinase (PK)C-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase. We examined whether this is mediated by oxidative modification of the pump subunits. We detected glutathionylation of beta(1), but not alpha(1), subunits in rabbit ventricular myocytes at baseline. beta(1) Subunit glutathionylation was increased by peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), paraquat, or activation of NADPH oxidase by Ang II. Increased glutathionylation was associated with decreased alpha(1)/beta(1) subunit coimmunoprecipitation. Glutathionylation was reversed after addition of superoxide dismutase. Glutaredoxin 1, which catalyzes deglutathionylation, coimmunoprecipitated with beta(1) subunit and, when included in patch pipette solutions, abolished paraquat-induced inhibition of myocyte Na(+)-K(+) pump current (I(p)). Cysteine (Cys46) of the beta(1) subunit was the likely candidate for glutathionylation. We expressed Na(+)-K(+) pump alpha(1) subunits with wild-type or Cys46-mutated beta(1) subunits in Xenopus oocytes. ONOO(-) induced glutathionylation of beta(1) subunit and a decrease in Na(+)-K(+) pump turnover number. This was eliminated by mutation of Cys46. ONOO(-) also induced glutathionylation of the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase beta(1) subunit from pig kidney. This was associated with a approximately 2-fold decrease in the rate-limiting E(2)-->E(1) conformational change of the pump, as determined by RH421 fluorescence. We propose that kinase-dependent regulation of the Na(+)-K(+) pump occurs via glutathionylation of its beta(1) subunit at Cys46. These findings have implications for pathophysiological conditions characterized by neurohormonal dysregulation, myocardial oxidative stress and raised myocyte Na(+) levels.

Clinical and experimental data show an increase in sodium reabsorption on the proximal tubule (PT) in essential hypertension. It is well known that there is a link between essential hypertension and renal angiotensin II (Ang II). The present study was designed to examine ouabain-insensitive Na(+)-ATPase activity and its regulation by Ang II in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). We observed that Na(+)-ATPase activity was enhanced in 14-week-old but not in 6-week-old SHR. The addition of Ang II from 10(-12) to 10(-6) mol/L decreased the enzyme activity in SHR to a level similar to that obtained in WKY. The Ang II inhibitory effect was completely reversed by a specific antagonist of AT(2) receptor, PD123319 (10(-8) mol/L) indicating that a system leading to activation of the enzyme in SHR is inhibited by AT(2)-mediated Ang II. Treatment of SHR with losartan for 10 weeks (weeks 4-14) prevents the increase in Na(+)-ATPase activity observed in 14-week-old SHR. These results indicate a correlation between AT(1) receptor activation in SHR and increased ouabain-insensitive Na(+)-ATPase activity. Our results open new possibilities towards our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the increased sodium reabsorption in PT found in essential hypertension.

In a previous paper we demonstrated that Ang-(3-4) counteracts inhibition of the Ca(2+)-ATPase by Ang II in the basolateral membranes of kidney proximal tubules cells (BLM). We have now investigated the enzymatic routs by which Ang II is converted to Ang-(3-4). Membrane-bound angiotensin converting enzyme, aminopeptidases and neprilysin were identified using fluorescent substrates. HPLC showed that Plummer's inhibitor but not Z-pro-prolinal blocks Ang II metabolism, suggesting that carboxypeptidase N catalyzes the conversion Ang II--> Ang-(1-7). Different combinations of bestatin, thiorphan, Plummer's inhibitor, Ang II and Ang-(1-5), and use of short proteolysis times, indicate that Ang-(1-7)--> Ang-(1-5)--> Ang-(1-4)--> Ang-(3-4) is a major route. When Ang III was combined with the same inhibitors, the following pathway was demonstrated: Ang III--> Ang IV--> Ang-(3-4). Ca(2+)-ATPase assays with different Ang II concentrations and different peptidase inhibitors confirm the existence of these pathways in BLM and show that a prolyl-carboxypeptidase may be an alternative catalyst for converting Ang II to Ang-(1-7). Overall, we demonstrated that BLM have all the peptidase machinery required to produce Ang-(3-4) in the vicinity of the Ca(2+)-ATPase, enabling a local RAS axis to effect rapid modulation of active Ca(2+) fluxes.

The aim of this study was to determine whether losartan, an angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 (AT(1)) receptor could influence the CA release from the isolated perfused model of the rat adrenal medulla. Losartan (5~50 microM) perfused into an adrenal vein for 90 min produced dose- and time-dependent inhibition of the CA secretory responses evoked by ACh (5.32 mM), high K(+) (56 mM, a direct membrane depolarizer), DMPP (100 microM) and McN-A-343 (100 microM). Losartan failed to affect basal CA output. Furthermore, in adrenal glands loaded with losartan (15 microM) for 90 min, the CA secretory responses evoked by Bay-K-8644 (10 microM, an activator of L-type Ca(2+) channels), cyclopiazonic acid (10 microM, an inhibitor of cytoplasmic Ca(2+)-ATPase), veratridine (100 microM, an activator of Na(+) channels), and Ang II (100 nM) were markedly inhibited. However, at high concentrations (150~300 microM), losartan rather enhanced the CA secretion evoked by ACh. Collectively, these experimental results suggest that losartan at low concentrations inhibits the CA secretion evoked by cholinergic stimulation (both nicotininc and muscarinic receptors) as well as by membrane depolarization from the rat adrenal medulla, but at high concentration it rather inhibits ACh-evoked CA secretion. It seems that losartan has a dual action, acting as both agonist and antagonist to nicotinic receptors of the rat adrenal medulla, which might be dependent on the concentration. It is also thought that this inhibitory effect of losartan may be mediated by blocking the influx of both Na(+) and Ca(2+) into the rat adrenomedullary chromaffin cells as well as by inhibiting the Ca(2+) release from the cytoplasmic calcium store, which is thought to be relevant to the AT(1) receptor blockade, in addition to its enhancement of the CA release.

Angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates the proximal tubule Na(+)-ATPase through the AT(1) receptor/phosphoinositide phospholipase Cbeta (PI-PLCbeta)/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. However, this pathway alone does not explain the sustained effect of Ang II on Na(+)-ATPase activity for 30 min. The aim of the present work was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved in the sustained effect of Ang II on Na(+)-ATPase activity. Ang II induced fast and correlated activation of Na(+)-ATPase and PKC activities with the maximal effect (115%) observed at 1 min and sustained for 30 min, indicating a pivotal role of PKC in the modulation of Na(+)-ATPase by Ang II. We observed that the sustained activation of PKC by Ang II depended on the sequential activation of phospholipase D and Ca(2+)-insensitive phospholipase A(2), forming phosphatidic acid and lysophosphatidic acid, respectively. The results indicate that PKC could be the final target and an integrator molecule of different signaling pathways triggered by Ang II, which could explain the sustained activation of Na(+)-ATPase by Ang II.
