Extracellular nucleotides regulate NaCl transport in some epithelia. However, the effects of nucleotide agonists on NaCl transport in the renal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) are not known. The objective of this study was to determine whether ATP and related nucleotides regulate NaCl transport across mouse IMCD cell line (mIMCD-K2) epithelial monolayers and, if so, via what purinergic receptor subtypes. ATP and UTP inhibited Na(+) absorption [measured via Na(+) short-circuit current (I(Na)(sc))] and stimulated Cl(-) secretion [measured via Cl(-) short-circuit current (I(Cl)(sc))]. Using selective P2 agonists, we report that P2X and P2Y purinoceptors regulate I(Na)(sc) and I(Cl)(sc). By RT-PCR, two P2X receptor channels (P2X(3), P2X(4)) and two P2Y G protein-coupled receptors (P2Y(1), P2Y(2)) were identified. Functional localization of P2 purinoceptors suggest that I(Cl)(sc) is stimulated by apical membrane-resident P2Y purinoceptors and P2X receptor channels, whereas I(Na)(sc) is inhibited by apical membrane-resident P2Y purinoceptors and P2X receptor channels. Together, we conclude that nucleotide agonists inhibit I(Na)(sc) across mIMCD-K2 monolayers through interactions with P2X and P2Y purinoceptors expressed on the apical plasma membrane, whereas extracellular nucleotides stimulate I(Cl)(sc) through interactions with P2X and P2Y purinoceptors expressed on the apical plasma membrane.

Changes in ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+](i) during collecting duct ontogeny were studied in primary monolayer cultures of mouse ureteric bud (UB) and cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells by Fura-PE3 fluorescence ratio imaging. In UB (embryonic day E14 and postnatal day P1) the ATP-stimulated increase (EC(50) approximately 1 microM) in fluorescence ratio (DeltaR(ATP)) was independent of extracellular Ca2+ and insensitive to the P2 purinoceptor-antagonist suramin (1 mM). From day P7 onward when CCD morphogenesis had been completed DeltaR(ATP) increased and became dependent on extracellular Ca2+. This ATP-stimulated Ca2+ entry into CCD cells was non-capacitative and suramin (1 mM)-insensitive, but sensitive to nifedipine (30 microM) and enhanced by Bay K8644 (15 microM), a blocker and an agonist of L-type Ca2+ channels, respectively. Quantitative RT-PCR demonstrated similar mRNA expression of L-type Ca2+ channel alpha1-subunit, P2Y(1), P2Y(2), and P2X(4b) purinoceptors in UB and CCD monolayers while the abundance of P2X(4) mRNA increased with CCD morphogenesis. In conclusion, both embryonic and postnatal cells express probably P2Y(2)-stimulated Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. With development, the CCD epithelium acquires ATP-stimulated Ca2+ entry via L-type Ca2+ channels. This pathway might by mediated by the increasing expression of P2X(4)-receptors resulting in an increasing ATP-dependent membrane depolarization and activation of L-type Ca2+ channels.

Nucleotide binding to purinergic P2 receptors contributes to the regulation of a variety of physiological functions in renal epithelial cells. Whereas P2 receptors have been functionally identified at the basolateral membrane of the cortical collecting duct (CCD), a final regulatory site of urinary Na(+), K(+), and acid-base excretion, controversy exists as to whether apical purinoceptors exist in this segment. Nor has the distribution of receptor subtypes present on the unique cell populations that constitute Ca(2+) the CCD been established. To examine this, we measured nucleotide-induced changes in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in fura 2-loaded rabbit CCDs microperfused in vitro. Resting [Ca(2+)](i) did not differ between principal and intercalated cells, averaging approximately 120 nM. An acute increase in tubular fluid flow rate, associated with a 20% increase in tubular diameter, led to increases in [Ca(2+)](i) in both cell types. Luminal perfusion of 100 microM UTP or ATP-gamma-S, in the absence of change in flow rate, caused a rapid and transient approximately fourfold increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in both cell types (P < 0.05). Luminal suramin, a nonspecific P2 receptor antagonist, blocked the nucleotide- but not flow-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients. Luminal perfusion with a P2X (alpha,beta-methylene-ATP), P2X(7) (benzoyl-benzoyl-ATP), P2Y(1) (2-methylthio-ATP), or P2Y(4)/P2Y(6) (UDP) receptor agonist had no effect on [Ca(2+)](i). The nucleotide-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients were inhibited by the inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate receptor blocker 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate, thapsigargin, which depletes internal Ca(2+) stores, luminal perfusion with a Ca(2+)-free perfusate, or the L-type Ca(2+) channel blocker nifedipine. These results suggest that luminal nucleotides activate apical P2Y(2) receptors in the CCD via pathways that require both internal Ca(2+) mobilization and extracellular Ca(2+) entry. The flow-induced rise in [Ca(2+)](i) is apparently not mediated by apical P2 purinergic receptor signaling.

Kidney tubules are targets for the activation of locally released nucleotides through multiple P2 receptor types. Activation of these P2 receptors modulates cellular Ca(2+) signaling and downstream cellular function. The purpose of this study was to determine whether P2 receptors were present in mIMCD-3 cells, a mouse inner medullary collecting duct cell line, and if so, to examine their link with intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. To monitor intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), experiments were conducted using the fluorescent dye fura 2. ATP (0.1-100 microM) produced a dose-dependent increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in a physiological Ca(2+)-containing solution, with an EC(50) of 2.5 microM. The P2-receptor antagonist PPADS reduced the effect of ATP on [Ca(2+)](i), and the P1-receptor agonist adenosine caused only a small increase in [Ca(2+)](i). Preincubation of cells with the phospholipase C antagonist U-73122 blocked the ATP-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i), indicating P2Y receptors were involved in this process. In a Ca(2+)-free bath solution, thapsigargin and ATP induced intracellular Ca(2+) release from an identical pool. Nucleotides caused an increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in the potency order of UTP = ATP > ATP gamma S > ADP > UDP that is best fitted with the P2Y(2) subtype profile. Although the P2Y agonist UTP induced a similar large transient increase in [Ca(2+)](i) as did ATP, a small but sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](i) occurred only in ATP-stimulated cells, suggesting the role of P2X receptors in Ca(2+) influx. The sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](i) could be blocked by either nonselective cation channel blockers Gd(3+) or P2X antagonists PPADS and PPNDS. Furthermore, when either Gd(3+) or PPNDS was applied to the bath solution before ATP application, the ATP-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i) was significantly reduced. Both RT-PCR and Western blotting corroborated the presence of P2X(1) and P2Y(2) receptors. These studies demonstrate that mIMCD-3 cells have both P2X and P2Y subtype receptors and that the activation of both P2X and P2Y receptors by extracellular ATP appears to be required to regulate intracellular Ca(2+) signaling.

Epithelial Na+ channels (ENaC) coexist with a family of ATP-gated ion channels known as P2X receptors in the renal collecting duct. Although ENaC is itself insensitive to extracellular ATP, tubular perfusion of ATP can modify the activity of ENaC. To investigate a possible regulatory relationship between P2X receptors and ENaC, coexpression studies were performed in Xenopus oocytes. ENaC generated a persistent inward Na+ current that was sensitive to the channel blocker amiloride (I(am-s)). Exogenous ATP transiently activated all cloned isoforms of P2X receptors, which in some cases irreversibly inhibited I(am-s). The degree of inhibition depended on the P2X receptor subtype present. Activation of P2X2, P2X(2/6), P2X4, and P2X(4/6) receptor subtypes inhibited I(am-s), whereas activation of P2X1, P2X3, and P2X5 receptors had no significant effect. The degree of inhibition of I(am-s) correlated positively with the amount of ionic charge conducted by P2X receptor subtypes. ENaC inhibition required Na+ influx through I(am-s)-inhibiting P2X ion channels but also Ca2+ influx through P2X4 and P2X(4/6) ion channels. P2X-mediated inhibition of I(am-s) was found to be due to retrieval of ENaC from the plasma membrane. Maximum amplitudes of ATP-evoked P2X-mediated currents (I(ATP)) were significantly increased for P2X2, P2X(2/6), and P2X5 receptor subtypes after coexpression of ENaC. The increase in I(ATP) was due to increased levels of plasma membrane-bound P2X receptor protein, suggesting that ENaC modulates protein trafficking. In summary, ENaC was downregulated by the activation of P2X2, P2X(2/6), P2X4, and P2X(4/6) receptors. Conversely, ENaC increased the plasma membrane expression of P2X2, P2X(2/6), and P2X5 receptors.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and endothelin (ET)-1 inhibit vasopressin-stimulated water reabsorption in the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). Because both ATP and ET-1 are released by the IMCD and can act in an autocrine manner to regulate IMCD water transport, we sought to determine whether these factors can modulate the other's production. To begin such studies, the effect of ATP on IMCD ET-1 production was examined. ATP caused a dose-dependent inhibition of ET-1 release and inhibited ET-1 mRNA levels in primary cultures of rat IMCD cells. This effect was first evident after 4 hrs of exposure to ATP and persisted for at least 24 hrs. The 50% inhibitory concentration for ATP inhibition of ET-1 production was approximately 1 microM, and the maximal response was observed at 25-100 microM. ATP acted, at least in part, through the P2Y2 receptor because its effect was mimicked by UTP, but not by the P2X agonist, alpha,beta-methylene-ATP. N-methyl-L-arginine, or indomethacin, did not block the ATP inhibitory effect. In summary, these data demonstrate that ATP inhibits IMCD ET-1 protein and mRNA accumulation, that this is mediated via P2Y receptors, and that the ATP effect is independent of cyclooxygenase or nitric oxide synthase metabolites. These findings suggest that although ATP and ET-1 both antagonize vasopressin action in the IMCD, they may have a complex interaction that ultimately determines the degree to which they each participate in modulating collecting duct function.

We examined P2X receptor expression and distribution in the mouse collecting duct (CD) and their functional role in Ca(2+) signaling. Both P2X(1) and P2X(4) were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated apical P2X(1) and P2X(4) immunoreactivity in principal cells in the outer medullary CD (OMCD) and inner medullary CD (IMCD). Luminal ATP induced an increase in Ca(2+) signaling in native medullary CD (MCD) as measured by fluorescence imaging. ATP also induced an increase in Ca(2+) signaling in MCD cells grown in primary culture but not in the presence of P2XR antagonist PPNDS. Short circuit current (I(sc)) measurement with mouse IMCD cells showed that P2XR agonist BzATP induced a larger I(sc) than did P2YR agonist UTP in the apical membrane. Our data reveal for the first time that P2X(1) and P2X(4) are cell-specific with prominent immunoreactivity in the apical area of MCD cells. The finding that P2XR blockade inhibits ATP-induced Ca(2+) signaling suggests that activation of P2XR is a key step in Ca(2+)-dependent purinergic signaling. The result that activation of P2XR produces large I(sc) indicates the necessity of P2XR in renal CD ion transport.

The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) plays a major role in the regulation of sodium balance and BP by controlling Na(+) reabsorption along the renal distal tubule and collecting duct (CD). ENaC activity is affected by extracellular nucleotides acting on P2 receptors (P2R); however, there remain uncertainties over the P2R subtype(s) involved, the molecular mechanism(s) responsible, and their physiologic role. This study investigated the relationship between apical P2R and ENaC activity by assessing the effects of P2R agonists on amiloride-sensitive current in the rat CD. Using whole-cell patch clamp of principal cells of split-open CD from Na(+)-restricted rats, in combination with immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR, we found that activation of metabotropic P2R (most likely the P2Y(2) and/or (4) subtype), via phospholipase C, inhibited ENaC activity. In addition, activation of ionotropic P2R (most likely the P2X(4) and/or (4/6) subtype), via phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase, either inhibited or potentiated ENaC activity, depending on the extracellular Na(+) concentration; therefore, it is proposed that P2X(4) and/or (4/6) receptors might function as apical Na(+) sensors responsible for local regulation of ENaC activity in the CD and could thereby help to regulate Na(+) balance and systemic BP.

A range of P2 receptor subtypes has been identified along the renal tubule, in both apical and basolateral membranes. Furthermore, it has been shown that nucleotides are released from renal tubular cells, and that ectonucleotidases are present in several nephron segments. These findings suggest an autocrine/paracrine role for nucleotides in regulating tubular function. The present review catalogues the known actions of extracellular nucleotides on tubular solute transport. In the proximal tubule, there is firm evidence that stimulation of apical P2Y(1) receptors inhibits bicarbonate reabsorption, whilst basolaterally applied ATP has the opposite effect. Clearance studies suggest that systemic diadenosine polyphosphates profoundly reduce proximal tubular fluid transport, through as yet unidentified P2 receptors. To date, only circumstantial evidence is available for an action of nucleotides on transport in the loop of Henle; and no studies have been made on native distal tubules, though observations in cell lines suggest an inhibitory effect on sodium, calcium and magnesium transport. The nephron segment most studied is the collecting duct. Apically applied nucleotides inhibit the activity of small-conductance K(+) channels in mouse collecting duct, apparently through stimulation of P2Y(2) receptors. There is also evidence, from cell lines and native tissue, that apically (and in some cases basolaterally) applied nucleotides inhibit sodium reabsorption. In mice pharmacological profiling implicates P2Y(2) receptors; but in rats, the receptor subtype(s) responsible is/are unclear. Recent patch-clamp studies in rat collecting ducts implicate apical P2Y and P2X subtypes, with evidence for both inhibitory and stimulatory effects. Despite considerable progress, clarification of the physiological role of the tubular P2 receptor system remains some way off.

Vasopressin regulates water reabsorption in the collecting duct, but extracellular nucleotides modulate this regulation through incompletely understood mechanisms. We investigated these mechanisms using immortalized mouse collecting duct (mpkCCD) cells. Basolateral exposure to dDAVP induced AQP2 localization to the apical membrane, but co-treatment with ATP internalized AQP2. Because plasma membrane-bound P2 receptors (P2R) mediate the effects of extracellular nucleotides, we examined the abundance and localization of P2R in mpkCCD cells. In the absence of dDAVP, P2Y(1) and P2Y(4) receptors localized to the apical membrane, whereas P2X(2), P2X(4), P2X(5), P2X(7), P2Y(2), P2Y(11), and P2Y(12) receptors localized to the cytoplasm. dDAVP induced gene expression of P2X(1), which localized to the apical domain, and led to translocation of P2X(2) and P2Y(2) to the apical and basolateral membranes, respectively. In co-expression experiments, P2R activation decreased membrane AQP2 and AQP2-mediated water permeability in Xenopus oocytes expressing P2X(2), P2Y(2,) or P2Y(4) receptors, but not in oocytes expressing other P2R subtypes. In summary, these data suggest that AQP2-mediated water transport is downregulated not only by basolateral nucleotides, mediated by P2Y(2) receptors, but also by luminal nucleotides, mediated by P2X(2) and/or P2Y(4) receptors.
