Dopamine decreases tubular sodium reabsorption, attributed in part to Na/K-ATPase inhibition in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). Because the final regulation of sodium excretion occurs in the collecting duct, where we have demonstrated specific dopamine DA1 binding sites, we examined the effects of dopamine, and of DA1 and DA2 receptor agonists on the Na/K pump in the microdissected rat cortical collecting duct (CCD) and in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, a line derived from the dog distal nephron. Dopamine inhibited pump activity in CCD by approximately 40%-50%, an effect proportionally larger than in the PCT. Unlike in the latter, the effect of dopamine was reproduced by the DA1 agonist fenoldopam, which inhibited the CCD pump in dose-dependent manner (maximum, 10 microM). The DA2 agonist quinpirole was without effect, either alone or in combination with fenoldopam. These actions on Na/K-ATPase paralleled in reciprocal fashion effects on adenylate cyclase: dopamine or fenoldopam, but not quinpirole, produced a significant increase in cAMP content, and the stimulation by dopamine was blocked by SCH 23390. Inhibitors of cAMP phosphodiesterase (3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine and theophylline), as well as forskolin and dibutyryl-cAMP, mimicked the effect of dopamine on the pump, underscoring the role of increased cAMP in this phenomenon. Both dopamine and fenoldopam inhibited Na/K-ATPase activity in MDCK cells. The results indicate that besides the PCT dopamine inhibits Na/K-ATPase activity in cells of the distal nephron, where its effect on the pump appears to be more pronounced and is mediated by activation of the DA1 receptor. The natriuretic effect of dopamine is probably exerted at both proximal and distal nephron sites.

We investigated mechanisms of regulatory volume increase in fused Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, a cell line originally derived from renal collecting duct. The intracellular ion concentrations as well as the concentration of the volume marker tetramethylammonium+ were measured by means of ion-selective microelectrodes. Application of hypertonic Ringer bicarbonate solution (+150 mmol/l mannitol) resulted in cell shrinkage to 84 +/- 2% of the initial cell volume (shrinkage expected for an ideal osmometer = 66%), indicating a significant regulatory volume increase. During the first 90 s of the hypertonic stress, a transient increase in intracellular Na+ and HCO3- concentrations was observed. It was followed by a sustained increase in intracellular K+ and Cl- concentrations. Ouabain (0.1 mmol/l) as well as amiloride (1 mmol/l) reduced K+ accumulation significantly, whereas the H+/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor SCH 28080 had no effect. Hypertonic stress hyperpolarized the cell membrane potential by 19 +/- 2 mV, owing to the decrease of the ratio of Cl- conductance to K+ conductance of the cell membrane. We conclude: (a) acute hypertonic stress activates Na+/H+ exchange in MDCK cells; (b) transient alteration of intracellular Na+ and pH stimulates Na+/K(+)-ATPase and Cl-/HCO3- exchange, exchange, both leading to the sustained intracellular accumulation of KCl; (c) a high intracellular KCl concentration is maintained by the partial reversion of the Cl-/K+ conductance ratio of the plasma membrane.

To examine mechanisms of H+ extrusion in the inner stripe of outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDIS), cell pH (pHi) was measured microfluorometrically in in vitro perfused tubules by use of 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein. In total absence of luminal and peritubular Na+, pHi recovery from an acid load (NH3/NH+4 pulse) occurred at an initial rate of 0.13 +/- 0.02 pH units/min, whereas in the presence of 135 mM peritubular Na+, pHi recovered at 1.40 +/- 0.28 pH units/min. Na(+)-dependent pHi recovery was completely inhibited by 1.0 mM peritubular amiloride. Luminal Na+ (135 mM) addition had no effect on pHi recovery. Na(+)-independent pHi recovery from acid load was manifest by a triphasic response: 1) initial slow alkalinization; 2) slow cell acidification; and 3) a final phase that exhibited gradually increasing rates of alkalinization, returning pHi above the initial control level (pre-NH3/NH+4 pulse). Luminal N-ethylmaleimide (NEM, 500 microM), an H(+)-ATPase inhibitor, significantly inhibited initial rate of pHi recovery and total pHi recovery; whereas 500 microM peritubular NEM had no effect on initial rate of pHi recovery. Luminal SCH 28080 (100 microM), an H(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, had no effect on initial rate of pHi recovery or total pHi recovery. Thus rabbit OMCDIS possesses both an apical membrane NEM-sensitive, SCH 28080-insensitive, Na(+)-independent H+ extrusion mechanism (likely a simple H(+)-translocating ATPase) and a basolateral membrane amiloride-sensitive Na(+)-H+ antiporter.

Significant proximal tubular responses to exogenous dopamine require 0.1 to 10 mumol/L concentrations but endogenous peritubular dopamine and DOPA concentrations are in the picomolar to nanomolar range. Dopamine concentration approaches micromolar levels within proximal tubular cells and their brush borders, as a result of DOPA decarboxylation and secretion, and in collecting duct fluid, as a result of tubular fluid absorption. Thus dopamine probably acts either within the proximal tubule cell or brush border or from the collecting tubular lumen. DOPA and Na+ uptake are coupled; dopamine uptake is linked to intracellular electrical potential and its secretion to H+ counter-transport; therefore alterations in proximal tubular Na+ and H+ transport influence dopamine excretion. Haloperidol and SCH 23390 block dopamine excretion, therefore dopamine antagonists may inhibit tubular dopamine responses by lowering intracellular dopamine concentration as well as by receptor blockade. Evidence for an intracellular site of dopamine action can be deduced from the inhibitory effect of DOPA on oxygen consumption and 86Rb uptake in proximal tubule cells. We have confirmed these findings in isolated proximal tubule cells but not in proximal tubule fragments. The discrepant responses may be due to the fact that isolated cells loose their polarity while tubule fragments remain polarized. Dopamine inhibition of proximal tubular Na+, K(+)-ATPase is not reproduced by single dopamine agonists or inhibited by dopamine antagonists. Dopamine effects which are not linked to known dopamine receptors may be the result of redox cycling. Micromolar dopamine oxidizes sulfhydryl groups which may modify enzyme structure and activate protein kinase C.

An electrogenic H-ATpase sensitive to inhibition by N-ethyl-maleimide has been reported to be present in renal distal tubules. In contrast to another H-ATPase (gastric H-K-ATPase), the renal enzyme is not stimulated by K+ and is not inhibited by vanadate. However, our preliminary observations indicated that a K-stimulated ATPase (K-ATPase) sensitive to inhibition by vanadate is present in renal medullary collecting duct (MCD). To localize and further characterize this renal tubular K-ATPase, we measured K-ATPase activity in eight specific segments of the rabbit nephron. K-ATPase activity was the difference in ATPase activity in the presence and absence of KCl but in the presence of ouabain (to inhibit Na-K-ATPase). ATPase activity was determined by a fluorometric microassay in which ATP hydrolysis is coupled to the oxidation of NADH. There was a significant K-ATPase activity (expressed as pmol.min-1.mm-1) in the connecting tubule (CNT, 17.0 +/- 3.3), cortical collecting duct (CCD, 6.6 +/- 0.7), and MCD (8.8 +/- 1.7), but not in the proximal segments and the thick ascending limbs. The renal tubular K-ATPase was not only inhibited by vanadate but also by omeprazole and SCH 28080 (relatively specific inhibitors of gastric H-K-ATPase). It is concluded that K-ATPase present in the CNT, CCD, and MCD has some properties in common with gastric H-K-ATPase. However, the physiological role of K-ATPase in the distal nephron segments remains to be elucidated.

Acidification of the urine is mediated by vectorial H+ transport from cells at a number of sites in the kidney. A proton ATPase has been described that appears to mediate a significant proportion of this H+ transport. In particular, in proximal tubule and collecting duct, there is evidence both for the presence of transporter protein and for H+ transport with features that have been identified with it. This review highlights some of the unresolved questions regarding this transporter, specifically, its distribution and relationship to the vacuolar pump present in endocytotic vesicles, how physiologic control is asserted, and its role in pathophysiology. The review discusses in greater detail the issue of whether the vacuolar H+ ATPase is responsible for all of the urinary acidification and concludes that it probably is not. Specifically, compelling evidence for acidification at sites in the kidney that appear to lack this transporter is presented. In addition, the evidence for the presence in the kidney of a gastric-type H(+)-K+ ATPase is also reviewed. The evidence appears to be strong for a K(+)-stimulated ATPase that is sensitive to omeprazole and SCH 28080, the prototypical H(+)-K+ ATPase inhibitors; however, uncertainties remain because of problems of transport inhibition specificity and discordant results of molecular biologic studies.

Mice with a targeted disruption of Na+/H+ exchanger NHE-3 gene show significant reduction in HCO-3 reabsorption in proximal tubule, consistent with the absence of NHE-3. Serum HCO-3, however, is only mildly decreased (P. Schulties, L. L. Clarke, P. Meneton, M. L. Miller, M. Soleimani, L. R. Gawenis, T. M. Riddle, J. J. Duffy, T. Doetschman, T. Wang, G. Giebisch, P. S. Aronson, J. N. Lorenz, and G. E. Shull. Nature Genet. 19: 282-285, 1998), indicating possible adaptive upregulation of HCO-3-absorbing transporters in collecting duct of NHE-3-deficient (NHE-3 -/-) mice. Cortical collecting duct (CCD) and outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD) were perfused, and total CO2 (net HCO-3 flux, JtCO2) was measured in the presence of 10 microM Schering 28080 (SCH, inhibitor of gastric H+-K+-ATPase) or 50 microM diethylestilbestrol (DES, inhibitor of H+-ATPase) in both mutant and wild-type (WT) animals. In CCD, JtCO2 increased in NHE-3 mutant mice (3.42 +/- 0.28 in WT to 5.71 +/- 0.39 pmol. min-1. mm tubule-1 in mutants, P < 0.001). The SCH-sensitive net HCO-3 flux remained unchanged, whereas the DES-sensitive HCO-3 flux increased in the CCD of NHE-3 mutant animals. In OMCD, JtCO2 increased in NHE-3 mutant mice (8.8 +/- 0.7 in WT to 14.2 +/- 0.6 pmol. min-1. mm tubule-1 in mutants, P < 0.001). Both the SCH-sensitive and the DES-sensitive HCO-3 fluxes increased in the OMCD of NHE-3 mutant animals. Northern hybridizations demonstrated enhanced expression of the basolateral Cl-/HCO-3 exchanger (AE-1) mRNA in the cortex. The gastric H+-K+-ATPase mRNA showed upregulation in the medulla but not the cortex of NHE-3 mutant mice. Our results indicate that HCO-3 reabsorption is enhanced in CCD and OMCD of NHE-3-deficient mice. In CCD, H+-ATPase, and in the OMCD, both H+-ATPase and gastric H+-K+-ATPase contribute to the enhanced compensatory HCO-3 reabsorption in NHE-3-deficient animals.

Apical H-K-ATPase in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) plays an important role in urinary acidification and K reabsorption. Our previous studies demonstrated that an H-K-ATPase mediates, in part, Rb reabsorption in rabbit CCD (Zhou X and Wingo CS. Am J Physiol Renal Fluid Electrolyte Physiol 263: F1134-F1141, 1992). The purpose of these experiments was to examine using in vitro microperfused CCD from K-restricted rabbits 1) whether an acute increase in PCO(2) and, presumably, intracellular acidosis stimulate K absorptive flux; and 2) whether this stimulation was dependent on the presence of a functional H-K-ATPase. Rb reabsorption was significantly increased after exposure to 10% CO(2) in CCD, and this effect was persistent for the entire 10% CO(2) period, whereas 10 microM SCH-28080 in the perfusate totally abolished the stimulation of Rb reabsorption by 10% CO(2). After stimulation of Rb reabsorption by 10% CO(2), subsequent addition of 0.1 mM methazolamide, an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, failed to affect Rb reabsorption. However, simultaneous exposure to 10% CO(2) and methazolamide prevented the stimulation of Rb reabsorption. Treatment with the intracellular calcium chelator MAPTAM (0.5 microM) inhibited the stimulation of Rb reabsorption by 10% CO(2). Similar inhibition was also observed in the presence of either a calmodulin inhibitor, W-7 (0.5 microM), or colchicine (0.5 mM), an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization. In time control studies, the perfusion time did not significantly affect Rb reabsorption. We conclude the following: 1) stimulation of Rb reabsorption on exposure to 10% CO(2) is dependent on the presence of a functional H-K-ATPase and appears to be regulated in part by the insertion of this enzyme into the apical plasma membrane by exocytosis; 2) insertion of H-K-ATPase requires changes in intracellular pH and needs a basal level of intracellular calcium concentration; and 3) H-K-ATPase insertion occurs by a microtubule-dependent process.

We compared the effects of dopamine and norepinephrine on vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated increases in osmotic water permeability (Pf) and cAMP accumulation in the rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). Both dopamine and norepinephrine inhibited AVP-induced Pf and cAMP accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner; however, norepinephrine was approximately 100-fold more potent than dopamine. The effects of dopamine on Pf were antagonized by the selective alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist, rauwolscine (10 nM--1 microM). Clozapine (10 microM), a dopamine D(4) receptor antagonist with significant activity at adrenergic receptors, partially attenuated both dopamine and norepinephrine-induced decreases in AVP-stimulated Pf. Dopamine-induced inhibition of AVP-dependent cAMP levels was antagonized by the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonists, rauwolscine, idazoxan, and yohimbine, but not by the dopamine receptor antagonists, spiperone, SCH-23390, or raclopride. Clozapine (1--10 microM) inhibited the effects of both dopamine and norepinephrine on AVP-stimulated cAMP levels. We conclude that the inhibitory effects of dopamine on AVP-induced Pf and cAMP accumulation in the rat IMCD are mediated via alpha(2)-adrenoceptors.

The intercalated (IC) cells of the cortical collecting duct (CCD) are important to acid-base homeostasis by secreting acid and reabsorbing bicarbonate. Acid secretion is mediated predominantly by apical membrane Schering (SCH-28080)-sensitive H(+)-K(+)- ATPase (HKA) and bafilomycin-sensitive H(+)-ATPase. The SCH-28080-sensitive HKA is believed to be the gastric HKA (HKAg). Here we examined apical membrane potassium-dependent proton secretion in IC cells of wild-type HKAg (+/+) and HKAg knockout (-/-) mice to determine relative contribution of HKAg to luminal proton secretion. The results demonstrated that HKAg (-/-) and wild-type mice had comparable rates of potassium-dependent proton secretion, with HKAg (-/-) mice having 100% of K(+)-dependent H(+) secretion vs. wild-type mice. Potassium-dependent proton secretion was resistant to ouabain and SCH-28080 in HKAg knockout mice but was sensitive to SCH-28080 in wild-type animals. Northern hybridizations did not demonstrate any upregulation of colonic HKA in HKAg knockout mice. These data indicate the presence of a previously unrecognized K(+)-dependent SCH-28080 and ouabain-insensitive proton secretory mechanism in the cortical collecting tubule that may play an important role in acid-base homeostasis.
