Parathyroid hormone (PTH) decreases the transepithelial transport of Na+ in the proximal tubule, an action ascribed to PTH-inhibited apical Na(+)-H+ exchanger-dependent Na+ entry. We tested the possibility that PTH could also diminish Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-dependent Na+ exit. To dissociate effects on Na+ entry, studies were performed in a suspension of rat proximal tubules by measuring nystatin-stimulated ouabain-inhibitable O2 consumption (QO2) and monensin-stimulated ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake in the absence or presence of bovine PTH-(1-34) fragment. PTH inhibited the percent nystatin-stimulated QO2 in a concentration-dependent manner, with maximal effect at 10(-10) M. PTH-increased cAMP formation was seen at doses higher than 10(-9) M and was maximal at 10(-7) M. Dibutyryl cAMP (10(-4) M) only partially reproduced the PTH action on QO2. Angiotensin II (10(-6) M) blunted the effect of 10(-7) M PTH on QO2, although it did not change 10(-7) M PTH-dependent cAMP generation. The analogues PTH-(3-34) and [Nle8,Nle18,Tyr34]PTH-(3-34)-amide mimicked the effects of PTH-(1-34) on QO2 but did not affect cAMP formation. Monensin-stimulated ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake was inhibited by PTH in a dose-dependent manner, with 10(-7) M PTH being maximally inhibitory. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was also decreased by PTH-(3-34) in a concentration-dependent manner, with maximal effect occurring at 10(-8) M. Agonist-dependent inhibition of Na+ pump was not due to a decrease of mitochondrial activity, because mitochondrial uncoupled QO2 rates were the same in control and PTH-treated tubules.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy is a normal compensatory state that may play a pathogenic role in hypertension. Angiotensin II stimulates a hypertrophic response in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. As part of the growth response, angiotensin II rapidly activates the Na(+)-H+ exchanger, increasing Na+ influx. Because Na+, K(+)-ATPase is the major cellular mechanism for regulating intracellular Na+, we studied the effects of angiotensin II-induced hypertrophy on Na+, K(+)-ATPase expression and activity. Angiotensin II caused rapid increases in both steady-state Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity (ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake) and intracellular [Na+]. Angiotensin II also caused a sustained increase in Na+, K(+)-ATPase at 24 hours with a 73% increase in maximal 86Rb uptake per milligram protein and a fourfold increase in Na+, K(+)-ATPase alpha-1 messenger RNA levels. Thus, angiotensin II hypertrophy was associated with rapid increases in Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity due to increased Na+ entry and sustained increases due to a specific increase in Na+, K(+)-ATPase expression. These data demonstrate dynamic regulation of Na+, K(+)-ATPase at the functional and molecular level and suggest that similar compensatory mechanisms should be present in vivo. Alterations in such compensatory pathways may be fundamental to the pathogenesis of hypertension.

The (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity operative in rabbit aortic intima-media incubated with normal plasma levels of glucose and myo-inositol (70 mumol/l) is decreased when the glucose content of the medium is raised from 5 to 10 mmol/l or higher; this effect is prevented by aldose reductase inhibitors and by raising the myo-inositol content of the medium to 500 mumol/l. The decrease in (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity results from the loss of a component normally regulated (stimulated) by endogenously released adenosine through a receptor that stimulates phosphatidylinositol turnover in a discrete pool. The replenishment of this phosphatidylinositol pool selectively requires myo-inositol transport and is inhibited when increased polyol pathway activity impairs myo-inositol transport at a normal plasma level. Adenosine is a vasodilator, some endothelium-released vasodilators modulate the responses to vasoconstrictors by stimulating an increase in (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity in vascular smooth muscle. Whether adenosine mediates this effect in angiotensin II or norepinephrine-stimulated aorta was examined. Angiotensin II (100 nmol/l) and norepinephrine (1 mumol/l) evoked marked increases in (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity in aortic intima-media incubated with 5 mmol/l glucose and 70 mumol/l myo-inositol, which were inhibited when adenosine deaminase was added or the medium myo-inositol omitted to inhibit myo-inositol transport. Raising the medium glucose to 30 mmol/l inhibited the angiotensin II and norepinephrine-evoked increases in (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity, and this was prevented when tolrestat (10 mumol/l) was added or the myo-inositol content of the medium was raised from 70 to 500 mumol/l.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have characterized the effect of the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (tBHQ) and thapsigargin on the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ in single bovine adrenal chromaffin cells by video-imaging of fura-2-loaded cells. Addition of either inhibitor released Ca2+ from internal stores in the absence of external Ca2+. tBHQ was unable to stimulate further Ca2+ release after addition of thapsigargin, but thapsigargin could do so after release by tBHQ, indicating that the tBHQ-sensitive stores are a sub-set of those sensitive to thapsigargin. Angiotensin II was able to elicit Ca2+ release after application of tBHQ, indicating that at least part of the tBHQ-sensitive stores were distinct from those discharged by Ins(1,4,5)P3. In the presence of external Ca2+, both Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors produced a more prolonged rise in cytosolic Ca2+ consistent with stimulated Ca2+ entry. The ability of the inhibitors to activate a Ca(2+)-entry pathway was confirmed by monitoring quenching of fura-2 after stimulated entry of the Ca2+ surrogate Mn2+. These findings indicate that bovine adrenal chromaffin cells possess a mechanism by which Ca2+ entry can be activated, following emptying of certain internal stores, independently of receptor occupation.

The effect of angiotensin on HCO3- absorption, fluid absorption, and Na+/K+ ATPase activity in isolated rat proximal straight tubules was investigated. During the control period, tubules absorbed fluid at 0.66 +/- 0.12 nL/mm.min and bicarbonate at 60.2 +/- 10.7 pmol/mm.min. After 10(-10) M angiotensin was added to the bath, tubules absorbed fluid at 0.93 +/- 0.19 nL/mm.min and bicarbonate at 77.4 +/- 15.2 pmol/mm.min, indicating stimulation of both parameters. Time controls showed no significant change in the rate of bicarbonate or fluid absorption. To determine whether this stimulation was due to an increase in the maximum rate of transport, tubules were perfused at greater than or equal to 20 nL/mm.min. During the control period, tubules absorbed bicarbonate at 82.5 +/- 13.0 pmol/mm.min. After 10(-10) M angiotensin was added to the bath, these same tubules absorbed bicarbonate at 75.9 +/- 11.9 pmol/mm.min. Thus, angiotensin did not alter the maximum rate of transport. Angiotensin also had no effect on bicarbonate permeability, which was 1.1 +/- 0.2 x 10(-4) cm/s before treatment and 1.3 +/- 0.3 x 10(-4) cm/s afterward. Finally, the effect of angiotensin on Na+/K+ ATPase activity was measured in paired experiments. Na+/K+ ATPase activity of control tubules was 36 +/- 6 pmol of ADP/mm.min; after angiotensin treatment, it was 47 +/- 6 pmol ADP/mm.min. From these data it was concluded that: (1) angiotensin stimulates bicarbonate absorption in the rat proximal straight tubule; (2) this stimulation is the result of a change in Km rather than of an increase in the maximum rate of transport or permeability; and (3) angiotensin directly stimulates Na+/K+ ATPase activity in the proximal nephron.

Angiotensin II (AngII) is a potent regulator of electrolyte transport with biphasic effects on salt and HCO3-resorption in proximal tubule epithelia (PCT). In cultured PCT cells, pM to nM AngII activates a GTP-binding protein to inhibit cAMP formation and thus releases inhibition of apical Na/H exchange. Phospholipase A2 is activated by nM to microM AngII releasing arachidonate which is metabolized by a novel P450 epoxygenase to form 5,6-epoxy-eicosatrienoic acid (5,6-EET). 5,6-EET and nM apical AngII cause dihydropyridine-sensitive Ca2+ influx from the extracellular space, inhibition of apical-to-basolateral Na flux, and decrease in epithelial monolayer short circuit current. 5,6-EET also inhibits Na/K-ATPase by 50%. This P450 epoxygenase is physiologically important in the AngII-signaling system because the P450 inhibitor ketoconazole blocks AngII effects while potentiating exogenous 5,6-EET effects. Finally, these AngII-mediated signaling systems are polarized in the PCT with pM basolateral AngII inhibiting adenylate cyclase and nM apical AngII activating PLA2 and subsequent generation of 5,6-EET.

Direct dose-dependent effects of angiotensin II on renal tubular sodium reabsorption have been demonstrated. Alterations in tubular sodium reabsorption may occur via modulation of renal Na,K-ATPase activity. Thus, these experiments were undertaken to ascertain whether angiotensin II could influence renal cortical Na,K-ATPase activity. Angiotensin II, 495 ng/microliters/h, or vehicle (controls) was infused for 24 h via miniosmotic pumps 48 h after rats were adrenalectomized and implanted with osmotic pumps containing 12.5 micrograms/microliters corticosterone (Treatment I) or both corticosterone and 0.2 microgram/microliter aldosterone (Treatment II), and in rats receiving 3% NaCl in their food (sodium loaded, Treatment III). Rats receiving Treatments I and III received saline to drink. Renal cortical microsomal membranes were prepared, and the effects of angiotensin II infusion on the K1/2 and Vmax for Na, K, and ATP determined. Angiotensin II infusions were associated with (i) a decrease (P less than 0.001) in the K1/2 for Na activation of Na,K-ATPase from 14 +/- 3 to 6 +/- 1 (n = 4 experiments), 16 +/- 1 to 12 +/- 1 (n = 5), and 12 +/- 3 to 7 +/- 1 (n = 5) mM (means +/- SE) for treatments I, II, and III, respectively; (ii) no changes in the K1/2 for K activation or the Km for ATP; (iii) no changes in the Vmax for Na, K, or ATP; and (iv) no change in Mg-ATPase activity. We conclude that angiotensin II infusion is associated with a decrease in the K1/2 of renal cortical Na,K-ATPase activity for sodium. This action of angiotensin II on the enzyme activity may contribute to the regulation of tubular sodium transport.

A higher (Na,K)-ATPase activity was found in rat capsular (zona glomerulosa) than in decapsulated (zona fasciculata) adrenal. No unusual characteristics of this enzyme were found in the simulation with Na+ and K+ and the inhibition with ouabain. Angiotensin II, ACTH and serotonin, all potent stimulators of aldosterone biosynthesis, did not affect the enzyme. In conclusion, the characteristics of rat capsular adrenal (Na,K)-ATPase are identical to the classical enzyme. It is not the direct receptor or effector for stimulators of aldosterone biosynthesis but a supportive role in mediating the regulatory signal cannot be ruled out.

The steps between exposure of bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells to angiotensin and the stimulated increase in aldosterone production were studied in two ways. Binding of angiotensin to receptors, and hormone effects on phosphatidyl inositol turnover, 45Ca2+ fluxes, and aldosterone production were measured directly. Other potential intermediate steps were investigated indirectly by use of inhibitors. Angiotensin slowed calcium influx and accelerated phosphatidyl inositol turnover in proportion to hormone dose. The effects correlated with receptor binding and aldosterone production. None of the inhibitors tested, except saralasin, inhibited angiotensin's effect on phosphatidyl inositol turnover. Altered calcium flux and stimulated aldosterone production were affected by the calmodulin inhibitor trifluoperazine and the intracellular calcium antagonist 8-(N,N-diethylamino)-octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride (TMB-8). Several reagents did not affect angiotensin binding, its effect on phosphatidyl inositol, or 45Ca2+ flux, but severely inhibited steroidogenesis. These included the phospholipase A2 inhibitor mepacrine, the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, and the Na+/k+-ATPase inhibitor ouabain. Colchicine had very little effect on the processes we measured, suggesting that microtubules play no role in angiotensin action in the adrenal. Based o these observations, we propose that angiotensin II affects the adrenal glomerulosa cell by first interacting with receptors, then increasing phosphatidyl inositol turnover, then altering cellular calcium distribution. Step distal to altered calcium distribution that contribute to increased steroid output include altered phospholipid metabolism, protein synthesis, and Na/k metabolism.

Angiotensin peptides (AI, AII, AIII) increased the rate of Na+ accumulation by smooth muscle cells (SMC) cultured from rat aorta. The stimulatory effect of AII on Na+ uptake was observed when Na+ exodus via the Na+/K+ pump was blocked either by ouabain or by the removal of extracellular K+. AII was at least ten times more potent than AIII and about 100 times more potent than AI in stimulating Na+ uptake. Saralasin had little effect on Na+ uptake by itself but almost completely blocked the increase caused by AII. The stimulation of net Na+ entry by AI, but not AII, was prevented by protease inhibitors. The stimulation of Na+ uptake was almost completely blocked by amiloride. Tetrodotoxin, which prevented veratridine from increasing Na+ uptake, had no effect on the response to AII. Angiotensin increased the rate of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake (Na+/K+ pump activity) but had no effect on ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity in frozen-thawed SMC or in microsomal membranes isolated from cultured SMC. The stimulation of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake by AII was blocked by saralasin. Omitting Na+ from the external medium prevented AII from increasing 86Rb+ uptake. AII had no effect on cell volume or cyclic AMP levels in the cultured SMC. These results suggest that angiotensin peptides activate an amiloride-sensitive Na+ transporter which supplies the Na+/K+ pump with more Na+, its rate-limiting substrate.
