An N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-sensitive adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) displaying the kinetic and pharmacological properties of an electrogenic proton pump has been described in the different segments of rat nephron, where it mediates part of the active tubular proton secretion. This study was therefore designed to evaluate whether changes in urinary acidification observed during metabolic acidosis or alkalosis were associated with alterations of the activity of tubular NEM-sensitive ATPase, and if so, to localize the nephron segments responsible for these changes. Within 1 wk after the onset of ammonium chloride treatment, rats developed a metabolic acidosis, and NEM-sensitive ATPase activity was markedly increased in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and outer medullary collecting tubule, and slightly increased in the cortical collecting tubule. Conversely, treatment with sodium bicarbonate induced a metabolic alkalosis that was accompanied by decreased NEM-sensitive ATPase activity in medullary thick ascending limb and outer medullary collecting tubule. NEM-sensitive ATPase activity was not altered in any other nephron segment tested in alkalotic and acidotic rats, i.e., the proximal tubule and the cortical thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. Changes qualitatively similar were observed as soon as 3 h after the onset of NaHCO3 or NH4Cl-loading. In the medullary collecting tubule, alterations of NEM-sensitive ATPase activity are in part due to hyperaldosteronism observed in both acidotic and alkalotic rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We examined the regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in proximal tubule segments during a high salt diet in prehypertensive Dahl salt-sensitive and salt-resistant rats. Rats were placed on normal salt or high salt diets (0.9% saline as drinking water). During the normal salt diet, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity was not different between Dahl salt-sensitive and salt-resistant rats. After 2 days and 10 days on a high salt diet, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in Dahl salt-resistant rats significantly decreased when compared to Dahl salt-resistant rats on a normal salt diet (P less than 0.01). The decreased Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in Dahl salt-resistant rats during a high salt diet was reversed by treatment with an inhibitor of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (dopamine synthesizing enzyme), benserazide. In contrast, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity did not decrease during the high salt diet and benserazide had no effect on Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in Dahl salt-sensitive rats. These results indicate that Dahl salt-sensitive rats do not have the capacity to down-regulate the proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity during a high salt diet. Indirect evidence suggests that the regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity by locally produced dopamine is absent in Dahl salt-sensitive rats.

This study evaluated the effect of L-1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-3-glycerol (OAG) on ouabain-sensitive Na,K-dependent oxygen consumption (Na,K-QO2) in intact renal proximal tubule cells (RPTC). Basal Na,K-QO2 (nmol O2/mg protein per min) was 20.0 +/- 1.0. Incubation with 10 nM of OAG induced a dual effect on Na,K-QO2, with an initial stimulation (maximal at 10 min, 37.1 +/- 5.0), followed by an inhibition (significant at 20 min, 16.3 +/- 1.0). No changes in ouabain-insensitive QO2 were observed in any of the protocols. The effects were abolished by sphingosine, a protein kinase C inhibitor. Stimulation was abolished by amiloride 0.1 mM. Amiloride had no effect on Na,K-QO2 at the concentration used. Stimulation was not potentiated by the sodium ionophore, amphotericin B, and the later inhibition was still observed in the presence of amphotericin B. The initial stimulation was attributed to an increase in sodium permeability, while the later inhibition was attributed to a direct effect on the Na,K-pump. Regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity by protein kinase C in intact RPTC can be accomplished by a direct effect on the protein or as a secondary effect consequent upon changes in intracellular sodium.

A fundamental and essential property of nearly all salt-transporting epithelia is the tight parallel coupling between the magnitude of the K-conductive pathway at the basolateral membrane and the activity of the Na,K-dependent ATPase (Na,K-ATPase). In the present study, we demonstrate that the coupling response in the renal proximal tubule is governed, at least in part, through the interaction between ATP-sensitive K channels and Na,K-ATPase-mediated changes in intracellular ATP levels. First, we identified a K-selective channel at the basolateral membrane, which is inhibited by the cytosolic addition of ATP. Second, conventional microelectrode analysis in the isolated perfused proximal straight tubule revealed that these channels are the major determinant of the macroscopic K conductance so that ATP-mediated changes in the open probability of the K channel could alter the extent of K recycling. Indeed, the increase in the macroscopic K conductance upon stimulation of transcellular Na transport and pump activity was found to be paralleled by a decrease in intracellular ATP. Finally, a causal link between parallel Na,K-ATPase-K-channel activity and ATP was established by the finding that intracellular ATP loading uncoupled the response. With our recent observations that similar ATP-sensitive K channels are expressed abundantly in other epithelia, we postulate that ATP may act as a universal coupling modulator of parallel Na,K-ATPase-K-channel activity.

Renal epithelial function, proton flux and sodium stimulated proton flux, was observed in vesicles isolated from the brush border of the proximal tubule of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) during migration. Brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) were isolated from the body kidney of Sockeye Salmon using aggregation/differential centrifugation techniques. Vesicle purity was tested using a series of epithelial and basal lateral markers including alkaline phosphatase, maltase, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGTP), Mg(2+)-activated ATP-ase, Na(+)+K(+)-activated ATPase, and 5'-nucleotidase and the lysosomal marker acid phosphatase. An enrichment/depletion factor for each marker was determined by comparison of purified BBMV with kidney homogenate. Vesicles exhibit an enrichment factor for alkaline phosphatase, GGTP, maltase, Mg(2+)-activated ATP-ase, Na(+)+K(+)-activated ATPase, and 5'-nucleotidase. A depletion factor was observed for acid phosphatase. Vesicle integrity was tested by measuring the time course of proton flux in the presence of a pH gradient. Amiloride sensitive sodium stimulated proton flux was observed in these vesicles. The presence of sodium caused a saturable increase in the rate of proton flux, indicating the activity of a sodium/proton antiport protein in BBMV.

Gentamicin can cause proximal tubule necrosis. We have shown that inhibition of PT Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity is rapidly induced by gentamicin. We have now investigated whether manipulations known to attenuate the negative effects of gentamicin on renal excretory capacity, i.e. high calcium intake and L-thyroxine treatment, will also attenuate gentamicin-induced inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity and ameliorated signs of proximal tubule damage. Rats were gentamicin- or vehicle-treated for 7 days. Sub-groups were given 4% calcium (Ca) supplements or L-thyroxine 20 micrograms 100 g-1 body weight daily. Gentamicin significantly reduced the glomerular filtration rate and increased the urinary excretion of the proximal tubule lysosomal enzyme, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase. Gentamicin significantly reduced proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity, measured in single permeabilized proximal tubule segments. Sodium excretion was inversely correlated to proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. Both calcium and L-thyroxine alleviated all gentamicin-induced side-effects on renal function as well as on proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. Calcium and L-thyroxine had no significant effect on renal function. L-thyroxine, but not calcium, increased proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in control rats. Renal cortical tissue gentamicin concentration was not influenced by calcium but was significantly lowered by L-thyroxine. Two procedures which, via different mechanisms, afford protection from gentamicin-induced changes in renal function also give protection from gentamicin-induced inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. This suggests that loss of integrity of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase enzyme contributes to gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity.

In dog proximal tubules in suspension, the addition of glucose increased significantly the ouabain-sensitive fraction of respiration, a response suppressed by phlorizin. The addition of alpha-methyl-D-glucoside (alpha-MG) had a modest effect and 3-O-methyl-D-glucoside (3-O-MG) had no effect. The different stimulation of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity elicited for each hexose could be explained by a different increment of net transepithelial flux of sodium induced by the sodium: hexose cotransport. This flux is a direct function of the transport characteristics of both luminal and antiluminal membranes of proximal cells for these sugars: glucose is rapidly transported by both membranes (allowing a large transepithelial flux of glucose: sodium) while alpha-MG is poorly transported by the basolateral, and 3-O-MG by the luminal, membrane of the dog proximal tubule (allowing a small transepithelial flux of hexoses and sodium). However the overall tubular respiration of dog proximal tubules was not increased by glucose addition because the increment in the ouabain-sensitive fraction was accompanied by a reciprocal decrement in an ouabain-insensitive but oligomycin- or N',N' dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-sensitive (or in the bafilomycin-sensitive) component of respiration. This component reflects the activity of a large BBM-bound H(+)-ATPase found in this species. The intracellular pH of dog proximal tubules in suspension was measured using the proton-sensitive fluorescent probe 2',7'-bis-2-(carboxyethyl)-5, (and 6)-carboxyfluorescein. Glucose application significantly alkalinized the cells. In contrast, other substrates such as lactate or acetate simultaneously acidified the cells and increased the ouabain-insensitive phosphorylative respiration of dog tubules. These observations suggest that a modulation of the activities of both the sodium and most probably the proton pump is elicited by substrate availability in suspensions of proximal tubules.

Na(+)-H+ exchange in the rat proximal tubule luminal membrane increases approximately 30% within 15 min after the contralateral uninephrectomy. The present study was designed to test whether altered renal sympathetic nerve outflow to the remaining kidney is the underlying mechanism of increased antiport activity and whether suppression of Na(+)-H+ antiport activity by renal denervation inhibits renal hypertrophy in the remaining kidney after uninephrectomy. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: 1) sham operated, 2) uninephrectomized, 3) uninephrectomized with prior denervation of the remaining kidney, and 4) contralateral renal denervation. Na(+)-H+ antiport activity (brush-border vesicles), Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity (basolateral vesicles), and kidney weight were measured days 1-7. On days 1 and 7, Na(+)-H+ antiport activity and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activities were significantly greater in uninephrectomized rats. Denervation of the remaining kidney before contralateral uninephrectomy prevented the stimulation of the antiporter and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, but failed to inhibit renal hypertrophy by day 7. In separate experiments, contralateral renal denervation alone without removal of the kidney stimulated the Na(+)-H+ antiporter and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. Kidney weight, however, remained unchanged. The results demonstrate a dissociation between the activation of the Na(+)-H+ antiporter and induction of renal hypertrophy in vivo.

The polar distribution of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase to the basolateral membrane of proximal tubule cells is essential for the efficient and vectorial reabsorption of Na+ and may be dependent on the formation of a metabolically stable, detergent-insoluble complex of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase with the actin membrane cytoskeleton. The present studies utilized immunocytochemical techniques to demonstrate and quantify the apical redistribution of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase during mild ischemia (15 min) that occurred in proximal (1.3 +/- 0.9 vs. 4.5 +/- 1.1 particles/100 microns surface membrane, P less than 0.01) but not distal tubule cells. Treatment of control apical membranes with 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl 8-(cis-2-n-octylcyclopropyl)octanoate (A2C), a fluidizing agent, markedly increased membrane fluidity without any effect on Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. In brush-border membrane vesicles isolated after ischemia, however, A2C further increased an already elevated Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. During ischemia, total cellular Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity remained unaltered, but the Triton X-100-soluble (noncytoskeleton associated) fraction of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase increased significantly following 15 and 30 min. There was a corresponding decrease in the Triton X-100-insoluble fraction of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, with the ratio of detergent-soluble to -insoluble Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase increasing from 13 +/- 2 to 32 +/- 5% (P less than 0.01) during 30 min of ischemia. Western blot analysis of the Triton X-100-soluble fraction, following 30 min of ischemic injury, revealed the presence of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, actin, fodrin, and uvomorulin. However, in a fraction highly enriched for Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, neither actin, fodrin, nor uvomorulin was detected.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of prostaglandin (PG) E2 on cell swelling were studied in isolated perfused tubules of rabbit kidney. PGE2 (1 microM) added to the bath induced cell swelling by 13.4, 7.2, and 9.6% in the connecting tubule, distal convoluted tubule, and cortical collecting duct, respectively, but it had no effect on the proximal convoluted tubule and cortical thick ascending limb. The response was dose dependent in the range of 1 nM to 1 microM. PGI2 exerted a similar effect, but PGF2 alpha had no effect. The swelling was completely blocked by basolateral Na+ removal and was attenuated by bilateral Cl- removal, suggesting that the swelling was mediated by basolateral Na+ entry in association with Cl- entry. In all segments except proximal tubule, PGE2 caused an initial transient peak followed by a sustained increase in intracellular Ca2+. Intracellular Ca2+ chelation or inhibition of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores abolished the PGE2-induced cell swelling, but extracellular Ca2+ removal did not. An inhibitor of the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger (3',4'-dichlorobenzamil, 100 microM) in the bath completely inhibited PGE2-induced cell swelling. Neither furosemide (1 mM) nor amiloride (1 mM) added to bath abolished the response, indicating that neither Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransport nor Na(+)-H+ exchange is involved in the action of PGE2. The swelling response to PGE2 was observed even in the presence of ouabain, indicating that the effect of PGE2 is independent of Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase inhibition. Nicardipine added to bath partially inhibited the swelling response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
