The precise signal that regulates fructose transport in renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs) under high glucose conditions is not yet known although fructose has been recommended as a substitute for glucose in the diets of diabetic people. Thus, we investigated that effect of high glucose on fructose uptake and its signaling pathways in primary cultured rabbit renal PTCs. Glucose inhibited the fructose uptake in a time- and dose-dependent manner. A maximal inhibitory effect of glucose on fructose uptake was observed at 25 mM glucose after 48 h, while 25 mM mannitol and l-glucose did not affect fructose uptake. Indeed, 25 mM glucose for 48 h decreased GLUT5 protein level. Thus, the treatment of 25 mM glucose for 48 h was used for this study. Glucose-induced (25 mM) inhibition of fructose uptake was blocked by pertussis toxin (PTX), SQ-22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), and myristoylated amide 14-22 (a protein kinase A inhibitor). Indeed, 25 mM glucose increased the intracellular cAMP content. Furthermore, 25 mM glucose-induced inhibition of fructose uptake was prevented by neomycin or U-73122 (phospholipase C inhibitors) and staurosporine or bisindolylmaleimide I (protein kinase C inhibitors). In fact, 25 mM glucose increased the total PKC activity and translocation of PKC from the cytosolic to membrane fraction. In addition, PD 98059 (a p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor) but not SB 203580 (a p38 MAPK inhibitor) and mepacrine or AACOCF3 (phospholipase A2 inhibitors) blocked 25 mM glucose-induced inhibition of fructose uptake. Results of Western blotting using the p44/42 MAPK and GLUT5 antibodies were consistent with the results of uptake experiments. In conclusion, high glucose inhibits the fructose uptake through cAMP, PLC/PKC, p44/42 MAPK, and cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) pathways in the PTCs.

Extracellular ATP plays an important role in the regulation of renal function. However, the effect of ATP on the Na(+)-glucose cotransporters (SGLTs) has not been elucidated in proximal tubule cells (PTCs). Therefore, this study was performed to examine the action of ATP on SGLTs and their related signal pathways in primary cultured rabbit renal PTCs. ATP increased [(14)C]-alpha-methyl-d-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake in a time-dependent (>1 h) and dose-dependent (>10(-6) M) manner. ATP stimulated alpha-MG uptake by increasing in V(max) without affecting K(m). ATP-induced increase of alpha-MG uptake was correlated with the increase in both SGLT1 and SGLT2 protein expression levels. ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by suramin (nonspecific P2 receptor antagonist), RB-2 (P2Y receptor antagonist), and MRS-2179 (P2Y(1) receptor antagonist), suggesting a role for the P2Y receptor. ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by pertussis toxin (PTX, a G(i) protein inhibitor), SQ-22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), and PKA inhibitor amide 14-22 (PKI). ATP also increased cAMP formation, which was blocked by PTX and RB-2. However, pretreatment of adenosine deaminase did not block ATP-induced cAMP formation. In addition, ATP-induced stimulation of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by SB-203580 (p38 MAPK inhibitor), but not by PD-98059 (p44/42 MAPK inhibitor) or SP-600125 (JNK inhibitor). Indeed, ATP induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. In conclusion, ATP increases alpha-MG uptake via cAMP and p38 MAPK in renal PTCs.

Ingestion of a salty meal induces secretion of guanylin (GN) and uroguanylin (UGN) into the intestinal lumen, where they inhibit Na+ absorption and induce Cl-, HCO3-, and water secretion. Simultaneously, these hormones stimulate renal electrolyte excretion by inducing natriuresis, kaliuresis, and diuresis. GN and UGN therefore participate in the prevention of hypernatremia and hypervolemia after salty meals. The signaling pathway of GN and UGN in the intestine is well known. They activate enterocytes via guanylate cyclase C (GC-C), which leads to cGMP-dependent inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange and activation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator. In GC-C-deficient mice, GN and UGN still produce renal natriuresis, kaliuresis, and diuresis, suggesting different signaling pathways in the kidney compared with the intestine. Signaling pathways for GN and UGN in the kidney differ along the various nephron segments. In proximal tubule cells, a cGMP- and GC-C-dependent signaling was demonstrated for both peptides. In addition, UGN activates a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein-coupled receptor. A similar dual signaling pathway is also known for atrial natriuretic peptide. Recently, a cGMP-independent signaling pathway for GN and UGN was also shown in principal cells of the human and mouse cortical collecting duct. Because GN and UGN activate different signaling pathways in specific organs and even within the kidney, this review focuses on more recent findings on cellular effects and signaling mechanisms of these peptides and their pathophysiologic implications in the intestine and the kidney.

The molecular mechanisms involved in the Ang-(1-7) [angiotensin-(1-7)] effect on sodium renal excretion remain to be determined. In a previous study, we showed that Ang-(1-7) has a biphasic effect on the proximal tubule Na+-ATPase activity, with the stimulatory effect mediated by the AT1 receptor. In the present study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in the inhibition of the Na+-ATPase by Ang-(1-7). All experiments were carried out in the presence of 0.1 nM losartan to block the AT1 receptor-mediated stimulation. In this condition, Ang-(1-7) at 0.1 nM inhibited the Na+-ATPase activity of the proximal tubule by 54%. This effect was reversed by 10 nM PD123319, a specific antagonist of the AT2 receptor, and by 1 muM GDP[beta-S] (guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate), an inhibitor of G protein. Ang-(1-7) at 0.1 M induced [35S]GTP[S] (guanosine 5'-[gamma-[35S]thio]triphosphate) binding and 1 mug/ml pertussis toxin, an inhibitor of G(i/o) protein, reversed the Ang-(1-7) effect. Furthermore, it was observed that the inhibitory effect of Ang-(1-7) on the Na+-ATPase activity was completely reversed by 0.1 microM LY83583, an inhibitor of guanylate cyclase, and by 2 muM KT5823, a PKG (protein kinase G) inhibitor, and was mimicked by 10 nM d-cGMP (dibutyryl cGMP). Ang-(1-7) increased the PKG activity by 152% and this effect was abolished by 10 nM PD123319 and 0.1 microM LY83583. Taken together, these data indicate that Ang-(1-7) inhibits the proximal tubule Na+-ATPase by interaction with the AT2 receptor that subsequently activates the G(i/o) protein/cGMP/PKG pathway.

Despite the recognized role of bradykinin (BK)-induced calcium and chloride conductance in regulating salt transport in the kidney, the signaling pathway involved has not been well examined. Patch clamp of murine proximal tubule (TKPTS) cells revealed that BK (10 nM) produced an increase in an outwardly rectifying current from a basal level of 2.9 +/- 0.6 to 13.8 +/- 1.1 pA/pF following addition of BK (n = 8; p < 0.001). The shift in reversal potential seen with BK on changing the intracellular solution to 152 mM chloride and significant inhibition of the current by 100 microM 4,4'-di-isothiocyanato-stilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS) suggested that BK activated a chloride current. BK-induced current was blocked by B2 receptor antagonist but not by B1 antagonist or pertussis toxin indicating that the current was mediated by B2 receptors possibly through Gq activation. TMB-8 completely blocked the BK-calcium rise in fura-2 studies but did not block the BK-chloride response indicating that BK-mediated chloride current is calcium-independent. BK-induced current was dependent on phospholipase C (PLC) since U73122, a PLC-beta blocker (10 microM) blocked it completely. Furthermore, chloride conductance was not modulated by bisindolylmaleimide, an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), but was enhanced by dibutyryl cAMP. We conclude that BK-induced rise in chloride current is mediated by B2 receptors and dependent on PLC activation but not dependent on calcium rise. Furthermore, the current can be modulated by cAMP but not PKC.

We have examined the effect of dopamine on Ca(2+) uptake and its related signaling pathways in primary renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). Dopamine increased Ca(2+) uptake in a concentration (>10(-10) M) and time- (>8 h) dependent manner. Dopamine-induced increase in Ca(2+) uptake was prevented by SCH 23390 (a DA(1) antagonist) rather than spiperone (a DA(2) antagonist). SKF 38393 (a DA(1) agonist) increased Ca(2+) uptake unlike the case with quinpirole (a DA(2) agonist). Dopamine-induced increase in Ca(2+) uptake was blocked by nifedipine and methoxyverapamil (L-type Ca(2+) channel blockers). Moreover, dopamine-induced increase in Ca(2+) uptake was blocked by pertussis toxin (a G(i) protein inhibitor), protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor amide 14/22 (a PKA inhibitor), and SQ 22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor). Subsequently, dopamine increased cAMP level. The PLC inhibitors (U 73122 and neomycin), the PKC inhibitors (staurosporine and bisindolylmaleimide I) suppressed the dopamine-induced increase of Ca(2+) uptake. SB 203580 (a p38 MAPK inhibitor) and PD 98059 (a MAPKK inhibitor) also inhibited the dopamine-induced increase of Ca(2+) uptake. Dopamine-induced p38 and p42/44 MAPK phosphorylation was blocked by SQ 22536, neomycin, and staurosporine. The stimulatory effect of dopamine on Ca(2+) uptake was significantly inhibited by the NF-kappaB inhibitors SN50, TLCK, and Bay 11-7082. In addition, dopamine significantly increased the level of NF-kappaB p65, which was prevented by either SQ 22536, neomycin, staurosporine, PD 98059, or SB 203580. Thus, dopamine stimulates Ca(2+) uptake in PTCs, initially through by G(s) coupled dopamine receptors, PLC/PKC, followed by MAPK, and ultimately by NF-kappaB activation.

In the present work, we demonstrate that adenine reduced Na(+)-ATPase activity in isolated basolateral membrane (BLM) of proximal tubule in a dose-dependent manner. Adenine metabolism was ruled out by TLC analysis of the potential [(3)H]adenine derived-metabolites. Specific binding of [(3)H]adenine to isolated BLM was observed in a dose-dependent manner with K(d) and B(max) of 242.6+/-27.6 nM and 2749.9+/-104.9 fmolmg(-1), respectively. Adenine increased the [(35)S]GTPgammaS specific binding and it was completely abolished by 10(-6)M GDPbetaS (G protein inhibitor) but it was not modified by DPCPX, DMPX and MRS1523, selective antagonists for A(1), A(2) and A(3) receptors, respectively. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of adenine on the Na(+)-ATPase activity was blocked by 10(-6)M GDPbetaS, 1 microg/ml pertussis toxin (Gi protein inhibitor), 10(-6)M foskolin (adenylyl cyclase activator) and 10(-8)M cAMP. These data demonstrate that adenine inhibits the proximal tubule Na(+)-ATPase activity through the Gi protein-coupled receptor.

We have previously demonstrated that adenosine is deaminated to inosine in the isolated basolateral membrane (BLM) of kidney proximal tubules. This work investigates the possible effect of inosine on proximal tubule Na(+)-ATPase activity. Inosine reduced Na(+)-ATPase activity by 70%. This effect of inosine was completely attenuated by 10(-8) M DPCPX, an A(1) receptor-selective antagonist, but it was not affected by either 10(-8) M DMPX or 10(-7) M MRS1523, A(2) and A(3) receptor-selective antagonists, respectively. The inhibitory effect of inosine was blocked by: (1) 10(-6) M GDPbetaS, a trimeric G protein inhibitor; (2) 1microg/ml pertussis toxin, a Gi protein inhibitor; (3) 10(-6) M forskolin, an adenylyl cyclase activator; (4) 10(-9) M cholera toxin, a Gs protein activator; (5) 10(-6)M cAMP. Our results demonstrate that the inhibitory effect of inosine on the sodium pump is mediated by the A(1) receptor/Gi/cAMP pathway.

Binding of angiotensin II (ANG II) to the AT1 receptor (AT1R) in the proximal tubule stimulates Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) activity through multiple signaling pathways. However, the effects of ANG II/AT1R-induced inihibitory G protein (Gi) activation and subsequent decrease in cAMP accumulation on NHE3 regulation are not well established. We therefore tested the hypothesis that ANG II reduces cAMP/PKA-mediated phosphorylation of NHE3 on serine 552 and, in doing so, stimulates NHE3 activity. Under basal conditions, ANG II stimulated NHE3 activity but did not affect PKA-mediated NHE3 phosphorylation at serine 552 in opossum kidney (OKP) cells. However, in the presence of the cAMP-elevating agent forskolin (FSK), ANG II blocked FSK-induced NHE3 inhibition, reduced intracellular cAMP concentrations, lowered PKA activity, and prevented the FSK-mediated increase in NHE3 serine 552 phosphorylation. All effects of ANG II were blocked by pretreating OKP cells with the AT1R antagonist losartan, highlighting the contribution of the AT1R/Gi pathway in ANG II-mediated NHE3 upregulation under cAMP-elevating conditions. Accordingly, Gi inhibition by pertussis toxin treatment decreased NHE3 activity both in vitro and in vivo and, more importantly, prevented the stimulatory effect of ANG II on NHE3 activity in rat proximal tubules. Collectively, our results suggest that ANG II counteracts the effects of cAMP/PKA on NHE3 phosphorylation and inhibition by activating the AT1R/Gi pathway. Moreover, these findings support the notion that NHE3 dephosphorylation at serine 552 may represent a key event in the regulation of renal proximal tubule sodium handling by ANG II in the presence of natriuretic hormones that promote cAMP accumulation and transporter phosphorylation.
