Two types of plasma membrane were purified from canine distal renal medulla by the techniques of differential and zonal density-gradient centrifugation followed by free-flow electrophoresis. One group of plasma membranes was identified as basal-laterally derived based on a 30-fold enrichment of Na-K-ATPase, a 20-fold enrichment of vasopressin-stimulated adenylate cyclase, and a 33-fold enrichment of [3H]vasopressin binding sites. The second type of plasma membrane was free of these markers, but had a cholesterol and phospholipid composition similar to them. Alkaline phosphatase also had a similar distribution in the two fractions. This lighter membrane fraction contained a membrane-bound cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase as well as substrate for this kinase. In addition there was a 26-fold enrichment of specific activity of an anion (SO32-)-activated ATPase which was insensitive to mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor protein, in contrast to the mitochondrial fraction of the tissue. Based on the relative preponderance of collecting duct tissue in the distal medulla and the yield of membrane protein, these membranes are tentatively identified as containing apical membranes of the collecting duct.

The effects of the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (Iso) on cells of the inner stripe portion of the rabbit outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi) grown in primary culture were examined using whole cell patch-clamp techniques and measurements of intracellular pH (pHi) and Ca2+. Iso (10(-6) M) increased the cellular Cl- conductance, and this effect was mimicked by treatment of the cells with dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP, 10(-5) M) or protein kinase A (PKA, 0.4 U/ml). Iso did not alter the baseline pHi, but it did increase the activity of both the Cl-/HCO3- antiporter and the H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase). The increase in Cl-/HCO3- antiporter rate was mimicked by dibutyryl-cAMP plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (cAMP + IBMX, 10(-4) M + 10(-5) M). However, the Iso-induced stimulation of the H(+)-ATPase activity was not mimicked by cAMP + IBMX. Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ showed that Iso also increased intracellular Ca2+ levels. This response was not dependent on extracellular Ca2+, nor did cAMP + IBMX appreciably alter intracellular Ca2+. Consequently, we postulate that beta-adrenergic agonists are potential stimulators of OMCDi H+ secretion. These agonists stimulate cellular HCO3- efflux through a signal transduction pathway involving cAMP and PKA. However, a different signal transduction pathway appears to mediate the stimulation of cellular H+ efflux. This second pathway may involve an elevation of intracellular Ca2+.

The role of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) in mediating the hydrosmotic effect of vasopressin in in vitro microperfused rabbit cortical collecting ducts (CCDs) was examined. We measured PKA substrate phosphorylation and water permeability [hydraulic conductivity (Lp) = 10(-7) cm.atm-1.s-1], stimulated by substituted cAMP analogues selective for a unique cAMP binding site (site A or B) on PKA regulatory subunit (R). Synergy between site A- and site B-selective analogues suggests involvement of PKA, because both sites must be occupied for R to dissociate from the catalytic subunit (C), allowing phosphorylation to proceed. As single agents, the site B-selective analogues 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (8-CPT) and 8-thiomethyl-cAMP (8-SCH3) were at least two orders of magnitude more potent than the site A-selective analogues N6-monobutyryl-cAMP (N6-mono) or N6-benzoyl-cAMP (N6-benz). Combinations of subthreshold concentrations of two site A analogues (N6-mono+N6-benz) or two site B-selective analogues (8-CPT + 8-SCH3) failed to significantly increase protein phosphorylation or water permeability. In contrast, combination of a site A plus site B analogue synergistically stimulated both protein phosphorylation and Lp. Rp-cAMPS, an inhibitor of cAMP binding to PKA, reduced both vasopressin (41% inhibition)- and cAMP (56% inhibition)-stimulated water permeability. H-89 (50 microM), an inhibitor of PKA kinase activity, also blocked cAMP-stimulated water permeability (90% inhibition). These findings suggest that vasopressin-induced water permeability in the rabbit CCD is mediated by PKA.

Previously, we found that isoproterenol activates whole cell Cl- conductance by a pathway involving adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate and protein kinase A (PKA) in a renal cell line (RCCT-28A) derived from the cortical collecting duct. The goal of the present study was to determine whether PKA activates Cl- channels in the apical and/or basolateral membrane. Using the patch clamp technique we found a 305-pS Cl- channel, described previously (22), located exclusively in the apical membrane and an outwardly rectifying Cl- channel (13/96 pS) located exclusively in the basolateral membrane. The outward rectifier was highly selective to Cl- versus cations, was inhibited by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid, but was not regulated by cytoplasmic pH or Ca2+. Neither isoproterenol nor PKA activated the 305-pS Cl- channel. In contrast, PKA activated a subset of outwardly rectifying channels in inside-out patches. In another subset of outwardly rectifying channels, formation of the inside-out configuration increased channel activity. These channels, however, were not sensitive to PKA. In conclusion, these experiments show that isoproterenol increases the Cl- conductance of RCCT-28A cells by activating a subset of outwardly rectifying Cl- channels located in the basolateral membrane.

We have reported that dopamine (DA) inhibits Na-K-ATPase activity in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) by stimulating the DA1 receptor, and the present study was designed to evaluate the mechanism of this effect. Short-term exposure (15-30 min) of microdissected rat CCD to DA, a DA1 agonist (fenoldopam), vasopressin (AVP), forskolin, or dibutyryl cAMP (dBcAMP), which increase cAMP content by different mechanisms, strongly (approximately 60%) inhibited Na-K-ATPase activity. 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine, an inhibitor of adenylate cyclase, completely blocked Na-K-ATPase inhibition by DA or fenoldopam, and IP20, an inhibitor peptide of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA), abolished the Na:K pump effect of all the cAMP agonists listed above. To verify whether the mechanism of pump inhibition by agents that increase cell cAMP involves phospholipase A2 (PLA2), we used mepacrine, a PLA2 inhibitor, which also abolished Na-K-ATPase inhibition by DA or fenoldopam, as well as by AVP, forskolin, or dBcAMP. Arachidonic acid (10(-7) - 10(-4) M) inhibited Na-K-ATPase activity in dose-dependent fashion. Corticosterone, which induces lipomodulin, a PLA2 inhibitor protein inactivated by PKA, equally abolished the pump effects of DA, fenoldopam, forskolin, and dBcAMP, suggesting that lipomodulin might act between PKA and PLA2 in cAMP-dependent pump regulation. We conclude that dopamine inhibits Na-K-ATPase activity in the CCD through a DA1 receptor-mediated cAMP-PKA pathway that involves the stimulation of PLA2 and arachidonic acid release, possibly mediated by inactivation of lipomodulin. This pathway is shared by other agonists that increase cell cAMP and thus stimulate PKA activity.

The present study was carried out to characterize the membrane conductive properties of RCCT-28A cells, a continuous cell line derived from rabbit cortical collecting duct (CCD). RCCT-28A cells have many phenotypic properties of acid-secreting intercalated cells (A-IC). Using the whole cell patch-clamp technique, we found that the cells are conductive to Cl-, but not to Na+ or K+. The beta-adrenergic agonists isoproterenol (2 x 10(-6) M) and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP, 10(-4) M) increased the whole cell Cl- conductance. Protein kinase A (150 nM) in the patch pipette (i.e., intracellular solution) also increased whole cell Cl- conductance. Because isoproterenol increases cAMP levels in these cells, we conclude that isoproterenol stimulates the Cl- conductance by increasing cell cAMP, which in turn activates protein kinase A. In contrast, vasopressin does not increase cAMP in these cells and did not increase the Cl- conductance. In conclusion, these experiments show that RCCT-28A cells, like A-IC, are conductive only to Cl-. Thus RCCT-28A cells are a good model with which to study Cl- channels in the collecting duct.

Atrial natriuretic peptide, acting through its second messenger guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP), suppresses Na+ absorption across the renal inner-medullary collecting duct and increases urinary Na+ excretion. Patch clamp studies show that cGMP reduces Na+ absorption by inhibiting an amiloride-sensitive cation channel in the apical membrane. We have now examined, using the patch clamp technique, the molecular mechanisms of cGMP inhibition. Cyclic GMP directly and specifically reduced the probability of a single channel being open (open probability, Po) by 39% (inhibition constant, Ki = 7.6 x 10(-7) M) by a phosphorylation-independent mechanism. Cyclic GMP also inhibited the channel by activating cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGMP-kinase). Exogenous cGMP-kinase completely inhibited the channel by a phosphorylation-dependent mechanism. Activation of a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein by GTP-gamma-S blocked cGMP-kinase inhibition of the channel. By contrast, cGMP-kinase inhibition of Po was completely reversed by GTP-gamma-S. Taken together with the results of a previous study showing that a G protein activates the cation channel, these data indicate that cGMP-kinase and a G protein sequentially regulate the cation channel. Our results show that atrial natriuretic peptide, acting through cGMP, inhibits Na+ absorption across the inner-medullary collecting duct by a dual mechanism, and that cGMP-kinase inhibits the channel by a pathway involving a G protein.

ANP, a hormone secreted by the atria of mammalian hearts in response to volume expansion, increases urinary sodium excretion in part by inhibiting sodium reabsorption across the inner medullary collecting duct. A number of nephron segments may contribute to the ANP-induced natriuresis; however, this review will focus on the cellular mechanisms of ANP inhibition of electrogenic sodium reabsorption by the inner medullary collecting duct. Patch-clamp studies conducted on rat inner medullary collecting duct cells in primary culture revealed that ANP, via its second messenger cGMP, inhibits electrogenic sodium reabsorption by reducing the open probability of a cation channel located in the apical membrane. Cyclic GMP inhibits the cation channel and thereby sodium reabsorption by two mechanisms. First, cGMP inhibits the channel by a phosphorylation-independent mechanism, by binding either to an allosteric modifier site on the channel or to a regulatory subunit. Second, cGMP inhibits the channel by activating cGMP-dependent protein kinase, which by a sequential pathway involving the GTP-binding protein, Gi, inhibits the channel. These cGMP-dependent mechanisms inhibiting sodium reabsorption across the inner medullary collecting duct account for a substantial component of the natriuresis following a rise in ANP levels.

We used the patch-clamp technique to study the effects of ATP on the small-conductance potassium channel in the apical membrane of rat cortical collecting duct (CCD). This channel has a high open probability (0.96) in the cell-attached mode but activity frequently disappeared progressively within 1-10 min after channel excision (channel "run-down"). Two effects of ATP were observed. Using inside-out patches, low concentrations of ATP (0.05-0.1 mM) restored channel activity in the presence of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). In contrast, high concentrations (1 mM) of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) reduced the open probability (Po) of the channel in inside-out patches from 0.96 to 0. 1.2 mM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) also blocked channel activity completely, but 2 mM adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate (AMP-PNP), a nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue, reduced Po only from 0.96 to 0.87. The half-maximal inhibition (Ki) of ATP and ADP was 0.5 and 0.6 mM, respectively, and the Hill coefficient of both ATP and ADP was close to 3. Addition of 0.2 or 0.4 mM ADP shifted the Ki of ATP to 1.0 and 2.0 mM, respectively. ADP did not alter the Hill coefficient. Reduction of the bath pH from 7.4 to 7.2 reduced the Ki of ATP to 0.3 mM. In contrast, a decrease of the free Mg2+ concentration from 1.6 mM to 20 microM increased the Ki of ATP to 1.6 mM without changing the Hill coefficient; ADP was still able to relieve the ATP-induced inhibition of channel activity over this low range of free Mg2+ concentrations. The blocking effect of ATP on channel activity in inside-out patches could be attenuated by adding exogenous PKA catalytic subunit to the bath. The dual effects of ATP on the potassium channel can be explained by assuming that (a) ATP is a substrate for PKA that phosphorylates the potassium channel to maintain normal function. (b) High concentrations of ATP inhibit the channel activity; we propose that the ATP-induced blockade results from inhibition of PKA-induced channel phosphorylation.

A small-conductance K+ channel in the apical membrane of rat cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells controls K+ secretion in the kidney. Previously, we observed that the activity of the channel is stimulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA)-induced channel phosphorylation. We now have applied the patch-clamp technique to study the effects of protein kinase C (PKC) on the secretory K+ channel of rat CCD. In cell-attached patches, application of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate progressively reduced the open probability and current amplitude of the K+ channel. In inside-out patches, administration of PKC reversibly decreased the channel open probability (Po) without changing the channel conductance. The PKC-induced inhibition of channel activity was Ca2+ dependent: Po decreased 42%, 23%, and 11% in the presence of 1000 nM, 100 nM, and 10 nM free Ca2+, respectively. We also demonstrate that PKC antagonizes the stimulatory effect of PKA on the apical K+ secretory channel of rat CCD. These results suggest regulation of K(+)-channel activity by two separate sites of phosphorylation with distinct and opposite effects on channel activity.
