We examined the regulation by adenosine of a 305-pS chloride (Cl-) channel in the apical membrane of a continuous cell line derived from rabbit cortical collecting duct (RCCT-28A) using the patch clamp technique. Stimulation of A1 adenosine receptors by N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) activated the channel in cell-attached patches. Phorbol 12,13-didecanoate and 1-oleoyl 2-acetylglycerol, activators of protein kinase C (PKC), mimicked the effect of CHA, whereas the PKC inhibitor H7 blocked the action of CHA. Stimulation of A1 adenosine receptors also increased the production of diacylglycerol, an activator of PKC. Exogenous PKC added to the cytoplasmic face of inside-out patches also stimulated the Cl- channel. Alkaline phosphatase reversed PKC activation. These results show that stimulation of A1 adenosine receptors activates a 305-pS Cl-channel in the apical membrane by a phosphorylation-dependent pathway involving PKC. In previous studies, we showed that the protein G alpha i-3 activated the 305-pS Cl- channel (Schwiebert et al. 1990. J. Biol. Chem. 265:7725-7728). We, therefore, tested the hypothesis that PKC activates the channel by a G protein-dependent pathway. In inside-out patches, pertussis toxin blocked PKC activation of the channel. In contrast, H7 did not prevent G protein activation of the channel. We conclude that adenosine activates a 305-pS Cl- channel in the apical membrane of RCCT-28A cells by a membrane-delimited pathway involving an A1 adenosine receptor, phospholipase C, diacylglycerol, PKC, and a G protein. Because we have shown, in previous studies, that this Cl- channel participates in the regulatory volume decrease subsequent to cell swelling, adenosine release during ischemic cell swelling may activate the Cl-channel and restore cell volume.

Previous data suggest that atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and bradykinin (BK) interact to increase Na+ and water excretion. We propose that this interaction is due to a synergistic action that inhibits Na+ absorption in the distal nephron. We examined the effects of BK and ANF on transport by monolayers of a cortical collecting duct cell line, M-1. BK (10(-8) M) had no effect on short-circuit current (Isc). Similarly, ANF (10(-8) M) did not inhibit Isc. In contrast, Isc decreased by 18% (from 57 +/- 8 to 46 +/- 6 microA/cm2) when BK and ANF were added simultaneously at this concentration (P less than 0.05). Because guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) and protein kinase C are implicated in the second messenger cascades of ANF and BK, we investigated their potential roles in mediating this interaction. Dibutyryl-cGMP (10(-4) M) inhibited Isc from 33 +/- 4 to 22 +/- 3 microA/cm2 (P less than 0.05) in the presence of BK but not in its absence. Staurosporine and calphostin C, inhibitors of protein kinase C, completely blocked the decrease in Isc caused by simultaneous addition of ANF and BK. cAMP levels in M-1 cells were not affected by either ANF alone or BK alone; however, when cultures were treated with both hormones, cAMP decreased from 856 +/- 56 to 332 +/- 26 fmol/10(6) cells (P less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Renal tubule solute and water transport is subject to regulation by numerous factors. To characterize direct effects of the recently discovered peptide endothelin (ET) on renal tubule transport, we determined signaling mechanisms for ET effects on vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated water permeability (PF) in rat terminal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) perfused in vitro. ET caused a rapid, dose-dependent, and reversible fall in AVP- but not cyclic AMP-stimulated PF, suggesting that its effect on PF is by inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation. Indomethacin did not block ET actions, ruling out a role for prostaglandins in its effect. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor calphostin, or pretreatment of perfused tubules with pertussis toxin, blocked ET-mediated inhibition of AVP-stimulated PF. ET caused a transient increase in intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) in perfused tubules, an effect unchanged in zero calcium bath or by PT pretreatment. ET effects on PF and [Ca2+]i desensitized rapidly. Inhibition of PF was transient and largely abolished by 20 min ET preexposure, and repeat exposure to ET did not alter [Ca2+]i. In contrast, PGE2-mediated inhibition of AVP-stimulated PF and increase of [Ca2+]i were sustained and unaltered by prior exposure of IMCD to ET. Thus desensitization to ET is homologous. We conclude that ET is a potent inhibitor of AVP-stimulated water permeability in rat terminal IMCD. Signaling pathways for its effects involve both an inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein and phospholipase-mediated activation of PKC. Since ET is synthesized by IMCD cells, this peptide may be an important autocrine modulator of renal epithelial transport.

In cultured cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells, exogenous prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) inhibited arginine vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production in a concentration-dependent manner. Although pertussis toxin (PT, 500 ng/ml) alone did not reverse the PGE2-dependent inhibition, PT and staurosporine, a protein kinase C inhibitor, together partially reversed the effect of exogenous PGE2. In contrast, PT completely reversed the inhibition of AVP-dependent cAMP production by sulprostone. These data suggest that exogenous PGE2 can inhibit AVP-stimulated cAMP production and that the inhibitory effects of PGE2 are mediated by staurosporine- and PT-sensitive component(s). Short-term (15-240 min) incubation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 10(-7) M) inhibited PGE2-stimulated cAMP production. Long-term (20 h) incubation with PMA augmented PGE2-stimulated cAMP production. These data provide evidence for the maintenance of a PT-sensitive PGE2-dependent inhibitory pathway of cAMP production in cultured CCD cells. In addition, data are presented that support an inhibitory role for protein kinase C in the effects of PGE2 on the metabolism of cAMP in these cells.

The inner medullary collecting duct is a complex tissue that exhibits a variety of hormone signaling systems. These include the following: adenylyl cyclase activity stimulated by vasopressin (AVP), beta-adrenergic agonists, or prostanoids and inhibited by alpha 2-adrenergic agents or adenosine; guanylate cyclase activity in response to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP); phospholipase C activity stimulated by ANP, AVP, bradykinin, endothelin, epidermal growth factor (EGF), and muscarinic cholinergic agents; and phospholipase A2 activity stimulated by AVP, bradykinin, EGF, and endothelin. The signal transduction mechanisms for each of these hormone signaling systems is succinctly reviewed, and the interactions between different signaling pathways are discussed. Central to this interaction is the mutually inhibitory relationship between activation of adenylyl cyclase and phospholipases. Increasing cellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate content impairs activation of phospholipases A2 and C; conversely, stimulation of phospholipase C impairs AVP-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity via activation of protein kinase C.

We examined the effect of carbachol, an acetylcholine analogue, on hydraulic conductivity (Lp) response to 10 microU/ml arginine vasopressin (AVP) in rabbit cortical collecting duct (CCD). In CCDs in which water flow had been established with AVP, subsequent addition of carbachol caused Lp (X10(-7) cm.atm-1.s-1) to fall from 251 +/- 32 to 146 +/- 19. Carbachol washout resulted in recovery of Lp to 217 +/- 38. In CCDs in which water flow had been established using 10(-4) M 8-chlorophenylthioadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-CPT-cAMP), addition of carbachol had no effect. These posttreatment studies suggest that carbachol's effects on modulating established water flow occur at a "pre-cAMP" step. With carbachol added first, AVP-induced Lp was reduced from 233 +/- 24 (controls) to 105 +/- 19 (carbachol-pretreated). Pretreatment with 10(-6) M atropine, a muscarinic receptor antagonist, totally reversed the inhibitory effect of carbachol, consistent with a receptor-mediated effect of carbachol. Carbachol pretreatment also inhibited 8-CPT-cAMP-induced Lp, indicating that carbachol's effects also occur at a "post-cAMP" step. Pretreatment with 10(-7) M staurosporine, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, reversed inhibitory effect of carbachol on AVP-induced Lp (193 +/- 26), suggesting that carbachol's effects are mediated by PKC. Intracellular calcium concentration [( Ca2+]i) was measured in fura-2-loaded CCDs. Carbachol also increased [Ca2+]i from 229 +/- 120 to 389 +/- 160 nM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We investigated the tubular action of endothelin in rat nephron segments. The effects of endothelin on arginine vasopressin (AVP)-, parathyroid hormone-, glucagon-, calcitonin-, and isoproterenol-dependent cAMP accumulation were studied. The following nephron segments were microdissected: glomerulus (Gl), proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), cortical and medullary thick ascending limbs of Henle's loop (cTAL and mTAL, respectively), cortical collecting duct (CCD), outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD), and inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). Endothelin dose dependently (10(-8)-10(-10)M) inhibited AVP-dependent cAMP accumulation in CCD, OMCD, and IMCD. This effect was independent of the presence or absence of phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, Ca channel blocker nicardipine, or indomethacin, but was abolished in the presence of protein kinase C inhibitor H-7. Protein kinase C stimulator dioctanoyl glycerol mimicked the effect of endothelin. On the other hand, endothelin had no inhibitory effect on AVP-dependent cAMP accumulation in cTAL or mTAL, parathyroid hormone-dependent cAMP accumulation in Gl and PCT, or glucagon-, calcitonin-, and isoprotereol-dependent cAMP accumulation in OMCD. We conclude that endothelin specifically inhibits AVP-dependent cAMP accumulation in CCD, OMCD, and IMCD through activating protein kinase C. This effect possibly has a role in maintaining urine volume to counteract the decrease in GFR caused by endothelin itself.

Previous studies from our laboratory have determined that inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells express a novel DA2-like dopamine receptor (namely, DA2K) that is linked to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production. In the present study, we have further characterized the dopamine-stimulated PGE2 response. Dopamine stimulated PGE2 production in cultured IMCD cells dose dependently (concentration for half-maximal stimulation, 11.1 microM; maximal stimulation, 235.1% of basal), an effect that was blocked by the DA2 antagonists domperidone and (S)-(-)-3-iodo-2-hydroxy-6-methoxy-N-[(1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)-methyl] benzamine. Inhibition of intracellular calcium release with 8-(diethylamino)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride (100 microM) blocked the dopamine response, whereas voltage-dependent calcium-channel blockers had no effect. Inhibition of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity with quinacrine (100 microM) completely blocked the dopamine-stimulated PGE2 production, whereas inhibition of polyphosphoinositol hydrolysis with neomycin (100 microM) or inhibition of protein kinase C with 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (10 microM) did not. Pertussis toxin (PT) treatment completely blocked the dopamine-stimulated PGE2 production but not the arachidonic acid-stimulated PGE2 production. These results suggest that dopamine, acting through the DA2K receptor, may be an important regulator of PGE2 production in IMCD cells. Furthermore, our results are most consistent with either a direct interaction of the DA2K receptor with PLA2 through a PT-sensitive G protein or an indirect interaction with PLA2 through mobilization of intracellular calcium.

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.

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) exhibits specific saturable binding to cultured rat inner medullary collecting tubule cells and stimulates inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production by these cells in a dose-dependent fashion. EGF-stimulated IP3 production is enhanced by GTP gamma s or AIF4- and is inhibited by GDP beta s or pertussis toxin. Alterations in extracellular Ca2+ have no effect on either basal or EGF-stimulated IP3 production. Similarly, treatment with EGTA which decreases cytosolic Ca2+ is without effect. In contrast, treatment with ionomycin which increases cytosolic Ca2+ has no effect on basal IP3 production but enhances the response to EGF. Activation of protein kinase C inhibits IP3 production in response to either EGF or AIF4-. These studies demonstrate the occurrence of EGF-stimulated phospholipase C activity in the rat inner medullary collecting duct. Stimulation by EGF is transduced by a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein, unaffected by alterations in extracellular Ca2+, insensitive to a decrement in cytosolic Ca2+, enhanced by an increase in cytosolic Ca2+, and inhibited by protein kinase C.
