Effects of aldosterone on its target cells have long been considered to be mediated exclusively through the genomic pathway; however, evidence has been provided for rapid effects of the hormone that may involve nongenomic mechanisms. Whether an interaction exists between these two signaling pathways is not yet established. In this study, the authors show that aldosterone triggers both early nongenomic and late genomic increase in sodium transport in the RCCD(2) rat cortical collecting duct cell line. In these cells, the early (up to 2.5 h) aldosterone-induced increase in short-circuit current (Isc) is not blocked by the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist RU26752, it does not require mRNA or protein synthesis, and it involves the PKCalpha signaling pathway. In addition, this early response is reproduced by aldosterone-BSA, which acts at the cell surface and presumably does not enter the cells (aldo-BSA is unable to trigger the late response). The authors also show that MR is rapidly phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues by aldosterone or aldosterone-BSA. In contrast, the late (4 to 24 h) aldosterone-induced increase in ion transport occurs through activation of the MR and requires mRNA and protein synthesis. Interestingly, nongenomic and genomic aldosterone actions appear to be interdependent. Blocking the PKCalpha pathway results in the inhibition of the late genomic response to aldosterone, as demonstrated by the suppression of aldosterone-induced increase in MR transactivation activity, alpha1 Na(+)/K(+)/ATPase mRNA, and Isc. These data suggest cross-talk between the nongenomic and genomic responses to aldosterone in renal cells and suggest that the aldosterone-MR mediated increase in mRNA/protein synthesis and ion transport depends, at least in part, upon PKCalpha activation.

We have used Western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry to determine the effect of dietary K intake on the expression of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms in the kidney. Western blot has demonstrated that conventional PKC isoforms (alpha and beta), novel PKC isoforms (delta, epsilon, and eta), and atypical PKC isoforms (zeta) are expressed in the renal cortex and outer medulla. Moreover, a low K intake significantly increases the expression of PKC-epsilon in the renal cortex and outer medulla but does not change the expression of PKC-alpha, PKC-beta, PKC-delta, PKC-eta, and PKC-zeta. Also, immunocytochemistry shows that PKC-epsilon isoform is expressed in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) and outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD) and that the intensity of PKC-epsilon staining is higher in the kidney from rats on a K-deficient diet than those on a control diet. Also, we used the patch-clamp technique to study the role of PKC in mediating internalization of ROMK (Kir 1.1)-like small-conductance K (SK) channels induced by phenylarsine oxide (PAO), an agent that inhibits protein tyrosine phosphatase and has been shown to stimulate the internalization of the SK channel in the CCD (Sterling H, Lin DH, Qu RM, Dong K, Herbert SC, and Wang WH. J Biol Chem 277: 4317-4323, 2002). Inhibition of PKC with calphostin C and GF-109203x had no significant effect on channel activity but abolished the inhibitory effect of PAO on SK channels. In conclusion, a low K intake increases the expression of PKC-epsilon isoform in the renal cortex and outer medulla, and PKC is involved in mediating the internalization of SK channels in the CCD induced by stimulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity.

Exocytic insertion of H(+)-ATPase into the apical membrane of inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells is dependent on a soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) attachment protein target receptor (SNARE) complex. In this study we determined the role of Munc-18 in regulation of IMCD cell exocytosis of H(+)-ATPase. We compared the effect of acute cell acidification (the stimulus for IMCD exocytosis) on the interaction of syntaxin 1A with Munc-18-2 and the 31-kDa subunit of H(+)-ATPase. Immunoprecipitation revealed that cell acidification decreased green fluorescent protein (GFP)-syntaxin 1A and Munc-18-2 interaction by 49 +/- 7% and increased the interaction between GFP-syntaxin 1A and H(+)-ATPase by 170 +/- 23%. Apical membrane Munc-18-2 decreased by 27.5 +/- 4.6% and H(+)-ATPase increased by 246 +/- 22%, whereas GP-135, an apical membrane marker, did not increase. Pretreatment of IMCD cells with a PKC inhibitor (GO-6983) diminished the previously described changes in Munc-18-2-syntaxin 1A interaction and redistribution of H(+)-ATPase. In a pull-down assay of H(+)-ATPase by glutathione S-transferase (GST)-syntaxin 1A bound to beads, preincubation of beads with an approximately twofold excess of His-Munc-18-2 decreased H(+)-ATPase pulled down by 64 +/- 16%. IMCD cells that overexpress Munc-18-2 had a reduced rate of proton transport compared with control cells. We conclude that Munc-18-2 must dissociate from the syntaxin 1A protein for the exocytosis of H(+)-ATPase to occur. This dissociation leads to a conformational change in syntaxin 1A, allowing it to interact with H(+)-ATPase, synaptosome-associated protein (SNAP)-23, and vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP), forming the SNARE complex that leads to the docking and fusion of H(+)-ATPase vesicles.

In the renal collecting duct (CD), water reabsorption depends on the presence of aquaporin-2 (AQP2) in the apical membrane of principal cells. AQP2 expression and subcellular repartition are under the control of AVP. Some pieces of experimental evidence indicate that additional hormonal factors, including insulin, may also control AQP2 expression and thereby CD water permeability. We have previously shown that AVP induces endogenous AQP2 expression in cultured mouse mpkCCD(cl4) CD principal cells (23). In the present study, we investigated the effect of insulin on AQP2 expression in mpkCCD(cl4) cells. Addition of insulin to the basal medium of cells grown on filters slightly increased AQP2 mRNA and protein expression, whereas insulin potentiated the effect of AVP. The potentiation of AVP-induced AQP2 expression by insulin was abolished by actinomycin D, a transcriptional inhibitor. Analysis of AQP2 protein expression under conditions of AVP washout and/or in the presence of chloroquine, a lysosomal degradation inhibitor, revealed that insulin did not significantly alter AQP2 protein degradation. Inhibition of ERK, p38 kinase, and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activities prevented the insulin-induced stimulation of AQP2 expression, whereas inhibition of PKC has no effect. Taken together, our results indicate that insulin increased AQP2 protein expression mostly through increased AQP2 mRNA levels in cultured mpkCCD(cl4) cells. This effect most likely relies on increased AQP2 gene transcription in response to MAPK and PI 3-kinase activation.

Stimulation of purinergic receptors inhibits amiloride-sensitive Na+ transport in epithelial tissues by an unknown mechanism. Because previous studies excluded the role of intracellular Ca2+ or protein kinase C, we examined whether purinergic regulation of Na+ absorption occurs via hydrolysis of phospholipid such as phosphatidylinositol-bisphosphates (PIP2). Inhibition of amiloride-sensitive short-circuit currents (Isc-Amil) by adenine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in native tracheal epithelia and M1 collecting duct cells was suppressed by binding neomycin to PIP2, and recovery from ATP inhibition was abolished by blocking phosphatidylinositol-4-kinase or diacylglycerol kinase. Stimulation by ATP depleted PIP2 from apical membranes, and PIP2 co-immunoprecipitated the beta subunit of ENaC. ENaC was inhibited by ATP stimulation of P2Y2 receptors in Xenopus oocytes. Mutations in the PIP2 binding domain of betaENaC but not gammaENaC reduced ENaC currents without affecting surface expression. Collectively, these data supply evidence for a novel and physiologically relevant regulation of ENaC in epithelial tissues. Although surface expression is controlled by its C terminus, N-terminal binding of betaENaC to PIP2 determines channel activity.

Receptor-mediated inhibition of amiloride-sensitive sodium absorption was observed in primary and immortalized murine renal collecting duct cell (mCT12) monolayers. The addition of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to the basolateral bathing solution of polarized monolayers reduced amiloride-sensitive short-circuit current (I(sc)) by 15-25%, whereas the addition of ATP to the apical bathing solution decreased I(sc) by 40-60%. Direct activation of PKC with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and mobilization of intracellular calcium with 2,5-di-tert-butyl-hydroquinone (DBHQ) reduced amiloride-sensitive I(sc) in mCT12 monolayers by 46 +/- 4% (n = 8) and 22 +/- 2% (n = 8), respectively. Exposure of mCT12 cells to EGF, ATP, PMA, and DBHQ caused an increase in phosphorylation of p42/p44 (extracellular signal-regulated kinase; ERK1/2). Pretreatment of mCT12 monolayers with an ERK kinase inhibitor (PD-98059; 30 microM) prevented phosphorylation of p42/p44 and significantly reduced EGF, ATP, and PMA-induced inhibition of amiloride-sensitive I(sc). In contrast, pretreatment of monolayers with a PKC inhibitor (bisindolylmaleimide I; GF109203x; 1 microM) almost completely blocked the PMA-induced decrease in I(sc), but did not alter the EGF- or ATP-induced inhibition of I(sc). The DBHQ-mediated decrease in I(sc) was due to inhibition of basolateral Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, but EGF-, ATP-, and PMA-induced inhibition was most likely due to reduced apical sodium entry (epithelial Na(+) channel activity). The results of these studies demonstrate that acute inhibition of amiloride-sensitive sodium transport by extracelluar ATP and EGF involves ERK1/2 activation and suggests a role for MAP kinase signaling as a negative regulator of electrogenic sodium absorption in epithelia.

The conventional protein kinase C isoenzyme beta (PKC-beta) is expressed in various structures of mouse kidney. To get insights into the function, PKC-beta knockout (-/-) and wild-type (+/+) mice were studied. Under basal conditions, PKC-beta-/- mice exhibited a higher systolic blood pressure (in awake mice), normal plasma concentrations of Na+ and K+, and normal plasma pH. Urine osmolality and 24-hour excretion of fluid, Na+, K+ and albumin were not different between genotypes, but urine pH was more alkaline in PKC-beta-/- mice. Inulin clearance experiments under anesthesia confirmed a higher systolic blood pressure and revealed normal glomerular filtration rate and fractional excretion of fluid, Na+ and K+ in PKC-beta-/- mice. The ability to restrict renal Na+ excretion in response to a low Na+ diet was unaltered in PKC-beta-/- mice. Chronic acid loading (NH4Cl) did not affect blood pH in PKC-beta+/+ mice, but induced a modest metabolic acidosis in PKC-beta-/- mice. In conclusion, first evidence is presented that (i) PKC-beta contributes to the regulation of arterial blood pressure, and (ii) PKC-beta is required for normal acid-base balance, which may relate to its expression and function in intercalated cells of the collecting duct.

We have previously shown that stimulation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) by bradykinin (BK) in murine inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD)-3 cells is mediated by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) transactivation. The mechanism of EGFR transactivation seemed to be novel, because it does not require phospholipase C, Ca(2+), calmodulin, protein kinase C, G alpha(i) subunits, or EGFR-B(2) receptor heterodimerization. In this study, we demonstrated the involvement of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in B(2) receptor-induced EGFR transactivation using their broad-spectrum inhibitors batimastat and N-[(2R)-2-(hydroxamidocarbonylmethyl)-4-methylpentanoyl]-l-tryptophan methylamide (Galardin) (GM-6001). Selective inhibitors for collagenase-2 and -3 (MMP-8 and MMP-13, respectively) blocked BK-induced EGFR phosphorylation and ERK activation, whereas inhibitors for MMP-1, -2, -3, -7, or -9 were without effect. Transfection of mIMCD-3 cells with MMP-8 small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in approximately 50% decrease of BK-induced ERK activation. A neutralizing antibody against MMP-13 as well as transfection with MMP-13 siRNA produced a similar effect. Inhibition of both collagenases resulted in approximately 65% decrease of BK-induced ERK activation, supporting roles for both enzymes. Stimulation of mIMCD-3 cells with 10 nM BK increased the activity of collagenases in concentrated culture media within 10 min. Moreover, recombinant MMP-13 and MMP-8, when applied to mIMCD-3 cells for 10 min without BK, stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR and caused approximately 250% increase over basal ERK phosphorylation comparable with BK-induced ERK activation. Collagenases-induced ERK activation was inhibited by 4-(3-chloroanilino)-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline (AG-1478) and thus dependent on EGFR tyrosine kinase activity. This study demonstrates a novel role for collagenase-2 and -3 in signaling of the G(q)-coupled BK B(2) receptor in mIMCD-3 cells.

Recent studies of the distribution of PKC isoenzymes in the mouse kidney demonstrated that PKC-alpha, -beta(I), and -delta are expressed in intercalated cells. The purpose of this study was to identify the intercalated cell subtypes that express the different PKC isoenzymes and determine the location of the PKC isoenzymes within these cells. Adult C57BL/6 mice kidney tissues were processed for multiple-labeling immunohistochemistry. Antibodies against the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase and pendrin were used to identify intercalated cell subtypes, whereas antibodies against calbindin D(28K) and aquaporin-2 (AQP2) were used to identify connecting tubule cells and principal cells of the collecting duct, respectively. Within type A intercalated cells, PKC-delta was highly expressed in the apical part of the cells, whereas immunoreactivity for both PKC-alpha and PKC-beta(I) was weak. Type B intercalated cells exhibited strong expression of PKC-alpha, -beta(I), and -delta. PKC-alpha and -beta(I) were localized throughout the cytoplasm, whereas PKC-delta was restricted to the basal domain. Within non-A-non-B cells, immunoreactivity for both PKC-alpha and PKC-beta(I) was high in intensity and localized diffusely in the cytoplasm, whereas PKC-delta was localized in the apical part of the cells. None of the PKC isoenzymes (PKC-alpha, -beta(I), or -delta) were expressed in the calbindin D(28K)-positive connecting tubule cells. Within AQP2-positive principal cells of the collecting duct, PKC-alpha was expressed on the basolateral plasma membrane, but no significant staining was detected for PKC-beta(I) and -delta. In summary, this study demonstrates distinct and differential expression patterns of PKC-alpha, -beta(I), and -delta in the three subtypes of intercalated cells in the mouse kidney.

In the study, the role of PKC and Ca++ in vasopressin regulation of the plasma membrane water permeability was studied in the cells of the mouse kidney collecting duct. Coefficient of osmotic water permeability of total cell surface (Pf) was calculated from the initial rate of cell swelling following the osmotic shock caused by changing the medium osmolarity from isotonic to hypotonic (300 mOsm to 200 mOsm). Desmopressin (dDAVP 1 nM) increased the Pf in hydrated mice from 168.4 +/- 11.8 microm/s up to 231.3 +/- 14.7 microm/s. The Ca++ chelator BAPTA prevented the desmopressin-induced increase in water permeability. Inhibition of PKC (Ro-31-8220 0.1 microM) also abolished the desmopressin-stimulated increase of plasma membrane water permeability, whereas inhibitor of PKC alone did not suppress the stimulation of the water permeability by db-cAMP. The PKC activity and calciumdependent second messengers seem to be important for regulation of water permeability by vasopressin.
