NaSi-1 encodes a Na+-sulfate cotransporter expressed on the apical membrane of renal proximal tubular cells, which is responsible for body sulfate homeostasis. Limited information is available on NaSi-1 protein structure and the mechanisms controlling its apical membrane sorting. The aims of this study were to biochemically determine the quaternary structure of the rat NaSi-1 protein and to characterize its expression in renal epithelial cell lines. Hexahistidyl-tagged NaSi-1 (NaSi-1-His) proteins expressed in Xenopus oocytes, appeared as two bands of about 60 and 75 kDa. PNGase F treatment shifted both bands to 57 kDa while endoglycosidase H treatment led to a downward shift of the lower molecular mass band only. Mutagenesis of a putative N-glycosylation site (N591S) produced a single band that was not shifted by endoglycosidase H or PNGase F, confirming a single glycosylation site at residue 591. Blue native-PAGE and cross-linking experiments revealed dimeric complexes, suggesting the native form of NaSi-1 to be a dimer. Transient transfection of EGFP/NaSi-1 in renal epithelial cells (OK, LLC-PK1 and MDCK) demonstrated apical membrane sorting, which was insensitive to tunicamycin. Transfection of the EGFP/NaSi-1 N591S glycosylation mutant also showed apical expression, suggesting N591 is not essential for apical sorting. Treatment with cholesterol depleting compounds did not disrupt apical sorting, but brefeldin A led to misrouting to the basolateral membrane, suggesting that NaSi-1 sorting is through the ER to Golgi pathway. Our data demonstrates that NaSi-1 forms a dimeric protein which is glycosylated at N591, whose sorting to the apical membrane in renal epithelial cells is brefeldin A-sensitive and independent of lipid rafts or glycosylation. 相似文献

The expressions of mRNAs of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor (c-met) and its effects were examined in cultured renal epithelial cell lines (OK, LLCPK1, and MDCK cells) and rat mesangial cells in primary culture. Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of HGF mRNA in mesangial cells, but not in epithelial cells. c-met mRNA was detected in epithelial cells, but not in mesangial cells. HGF stimulated [3H]-thymidine incorporation (DNA synthesis) dose-dependently in OK and LLCPK1 cells, but not in MDCK and mesangial cells. Ouabaine sensitive rubidium uptake (Na,K-ATPase activity) was stimulated by 63% with HGF (10 ng/ml) treatment for 16hr in MDCK cells. The results suggest that HGF is produced in the kidney, at least in mesangial cells and works on epithelial cells to stimulate the proliferation and/or to modify cell functions in a paracrine manner. 相似文献

We explored to determine if iNOS could be induced by insulin in osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells. Insulin (100 nM) stimulated nitric oxide production by twofold and significantly increased iNOS mRNA and protein levels. Insulin also increased collagen synthesis, but had little effect on alkaline phosphatase activity. In contrast, IGF-1 had little effect on NO production below 10 nM and it stimulated NO production by only 57% at 100 nM. IGF-1 had little effect on collagen levels, whereas it inhibited alkaline phosphatase activities in a dose-dependent manner. When an MEK inhibitor was preincubated, insulin failed to stimulate NO production, whereas insulin dramatically increased NO production in the ERK1 overexpressed cells. Taken together, it is proposed that insulin increases iNOS mRNA, iNOS protein, and NO production, possibly via activation of ERK. These may play an important role in osteoblast functions such as collagen synthesis. 相似文献

As the fourth most abundant anion in the body, sulfate plays an essential role in numerous physiological processes. One key protein involved in transcellular transport of sulfate is the sodium-sulfate cotransporter NaSi-1, and previous studies suggest that vitamin D modulates sulfate homeostasis by regulating NaSi-1 expression. In the present study, we found that, in mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR), NaSi-1 expression in the kidney was reduced by 72% but intestinal NaSi-1 levels remained unchanged. In connection with these findings, urinary sulfate excretion was increased by 42% whereas serum sulfate concentration was reduced by 50% in VDR knockout mice. Moreover, levels of hepatic glutathione and skeletal sulfated proteoglycans were also reduced by 18 and 45%, respectively, in the mutant mice. Similar results were observed in VDR knockout mice after their blood ionized calcium levels and rachitic bone phenotype were normalized by dietary means, indicating that vitamin D regulation of NaSi-1 expression and sulfate metabolism is independent of its role in calcium metabolism. Treatment of wild-type mice with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or vitamin D analog markedly stimulated renal NaSi-1 mRNA expression. These data provide strong in vivo evidence that vitamin D plays a critical role in sulfate homeostasis. However, the observation that serum sulfate and skeletal proteoglycan levels in normocalcemic VDR knockout mice remained low in the absence of rickets and osteomalacia suggests that the contribution of sulfate deficiency to development of rickets and osteomalacia is minimal. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to evaluate effects of exercise-induced hormones, cortisol, IGF-1, and beta-endorphin, on the regulation of taurine transport activity in rat skeletal myoblasts, L6 cells. Challenge of L6 cells with cortisol (100 nM) for 24 hrs resulted in a 165% increase in taurine transport activity, 220% increase in Vmax of the taurine transporter, and 55% increase in taurine transporter/ beta-actin mRNA level compared with untreated control cells. Neither IGF-1 (1 approximately 100 nM) nor beta-endorphin (1 approximately 20 nM), added in the incubation medium separately for 24 hrs, affected taurine uptake by L6 cells. However, when cells were co-treated with IGF-1 (10 nM) plus cortisol (100 nM), taurine transport activity (37% increase, p < 0.05), Vmax of the transporter (54%, p < 0.05), and taurine transporter/ beta-actin mRNA level were further increased compared to the value for cells treated with cortisol alone. These results suggest that taurine transport by skeletal muscle cells appear to be synergistically up-regulated during a prolonged exercise via elevated levels of cortisol and IGF-1 in muscle. 相似文献

We studied the in vitro and in vivo effects of octanoylated goldfish ghrelin peptides (gGRL-19 and gGRL-12) on luteinizing hormone (LH) and growth hormone (GH) release in goldfish. gGRL-19 and gGRL-12 at picomolar doses stimulated LH and GH release from dispersed goldfish pituitary cells in perifusion and static incubation. Incubation of pituitary cells for 2 h with 10 nM gGRL-12 and 1 or 10 nM gGRL-19 increased LH-beta mRNA expression, whereas only 10 nM gGRL-19 increased GH mRNA expression. Somatostatin-14 abolished the stimulatory effects of ghrelin on GH release from dispersed pituitary cells in perifusion and static culture. The GH secretagogue receptor antagonist d-Lys(3)-GHRP-6 inhibited the ghrelin-induced LH release, whereas no effects were found on stimulation of GH release by ghrelin. Intracerebroventricular injection of 1 ng/g body wt of gGRL-19 or intraperitoneal injection of 100 ng/g body wt of gGRL-19 increased serum LH levels at 60 min after injection, whereas significant increases in GH levels were found at 15 and 30 min after these treatments. Our results indicate that, in addition to its potent stimulatory actions on GH release, goldfish ghrelin peptides have the novel function of stimulating LH release in goldfish. 相似文献

The physiological decline that occurs in aging is thought to result, in part, from accumulation of oxidative damage generated by reactive oxygen species during normal metabolic processes. Elevated levels of antioxidative enzymes in liver tissues are present in the Ames dwarf, a growth hormone (GH)-deficient mouse that lives more than 1 year longer than wild-type mice from the same line. In contrast, transgenic mice that overexpress GH exhibit depressed hepatic levels of catalase and have significantly shortened life spans. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro effects of GH and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) on antioxidative enzymes in mouse hepatocytes. Hepatocytes were isolated from wild-type mice following perfusion of livers with a collagenase-based buffer. Dispersed cells were plated on Matrigel and treated with rat GH (0.1, 1.0, or 10 microg/ml) or IGF-1 (0.5, 5.0, or 50 nM) for 24 hr. Hepatocytes were recovered and protein was extracted for immunoblotting and enzyme activity assays of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). A 41% and 27% decrease in catalase activity was detected in cells treated with GH, whereas IGF-1 reduced CAT activity levels to a greater extent than GH (P < 0.0001). The activity and protein levels of GPX were also significantly depressed in cells treated with GH, whereas activity alone was decreased in cells treated with IGF-1 (P < 0.04). GH significantly suppressed MnSOD levels by 40% and 66% in 1.0 and 0.1 microg/ml concentrations, respectively. Similarly, IGF-1 decreased MnSOD protein levels (5 nM; P < 0.05). These results suggest that GH and IGF-1 may decrease the ability of hepatocytes to counter oxidative stress. In addition, these experiments provide an explanation for the differing antioxidative defense capacity of GH-deficient versus GH-overexpressing mice, and they suggest that GH is directly involved in antioxidant regulation and the aging process. 相似文献

IGF-I causes an ultrasensitive reduction in GH mRNA levels via an extracellular mechanism involving IGF binding proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
IGF-I-dependent decreases in endogenous GH mRNA expression were studied in individual rat MtT/S somatotroph cells using in situ hybridization. It was first shown that increasing IGF-I concentrations (0-90 nM) decreased GH mRNA levels in a ultrasensitive manner when averaged over the entire population, such that the decrease occurred over a narrow range of IGF-I concentration with an EC50 of 7.1 nM. The degree of ultrasensitivity of the population average was expressed by calculating the Hill coefficient (nA), which had a value of -2.0. GH mRNA levels in individual dispersed cells from these cultures were then measured. These results were first summed for all cells to show that the average response of the population remained ultrasensitive (nA = -2.6, EC50 = 8.1 nM). Then, parameters for individual cells of the population were calculated using mathematical modeling of the distribution of individual cell GH mRNA levels after treatment with 0-90 nM IGF-I. Solution of the data from the individual cells yielded a Hill coefficient (nI = -0.65) and a heterogeneity coefficient (mI = -1.2) indicative of individual cell responsiveness to IGF-I that was not ultrasensitive and very heterogeneous. These results suggested that ultrasensitivity in the population may likely be caused by an extracellular mechanism regulating IGF-I concentrations, such as IGF binding proteins. Increasing concentrations of long (Arg)3IGF-1, an analog that binds the IGF type-1 receptor but not IGF binding proteins, showed a linear inhibition of GH mRNA levels. Treatment with IGF binding protein ligand inhibitor, an IGF-I analog that binds to IGF binding proteins but not the IGF type-1 receptor, decreased GH mRNA levels in the absence of exogenous IGF-I. Thus, IGF binding proteins provide the extracellular sequestration of IGF-I necessary for the precise and ultrasensitive regulation of GH mRNA levels in the entire cell population, although expression within individual cells is regulated in a graded fashion. 相似文献

The exposure of confluent peritubular (PT) cells from immature rat testis to insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) induced a time and dose-dependent increase of [35S]-sulfate and [3H]-d-glucosamine incorporations in newly synthesized proteoglycans (PG). This increased content of PG was the result of an enhancement of PG synthesis rather than a decreased rate of degradation. IGF-1 had no effect on the molecular weight of synthesized PG nor on the nature and distribution of the constitutive glycosaminoglycan chains, both in medium and in cell layer. The stimulation of PG synthesis by IGF-1 appeared to be due, at least partially, to an increase of glycosylation processes. IGF-1 effect was mediated by the classical tyrosine kinase signalling process, since IGF-1 action on PG synthesis was abolished by genistein and tyrphostin A9, two well known tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The increase of PG synthesis was accompanied with an undersulfation of constitutive glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains (chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate chains) since the [35S]/[3H] ratio was reduced by about 20–25% in presence of IGF-1. Although the mechanism of hyaluronic acid synthesis was completely different from those of other GAG, IGF-1 also dramatically enhanced its production by PT cells. 相似文献

The cellular and molecular basis of growth hormone (GH) actions on the heart remain poorly defined, and it is unclear whether GH effects on the myocardium are direct or mediated at least in part via insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1). Here, we demonstrate that the cultured neonatal cardiomyocyte is not an appropriate model to study the effects of GH because of artifactual loss of GH receptors (GHRs). To circumvent this problem, rat neonatal cardiomyocytes were infected with a recombinant adenovirus expressing the murine GHR. Functional integrity of GHR was suggested by GH-induced activation of the cognate JAK2/STAT5, MAPK, and Akt intracellular pathways in the cells expressing GHR. Although exposure to GH resulted in a significant increase in the size of the cardiomyocyte and increased expression of c-fos, myosin light chain 2, and skeletal alpha-actin mRNAs, there were no significant changes in IGF-1 or atrial natriuretic factor mRNA levels in response to GH stimulation. In this model, GH increased incorporation of leucine, uptake of palmitic acid, and abundance of fatty acid transport protein mRNA. In contrast, GH decreased uptake of 2-deoxy-d-glucose and levels of Glut1 protein. Thus, in isolated rat neonatal cardiomyocytes expressing GHR, GH induces hypertrophy and causes alterations in cellular metabolic profile in the absence of demonstrable changes in IGF-1 mRNA, suggesting that these effects may be independent of IGF-1. 相似文献

The hormonal regulation of leptin mRNA expression and the association between leptin expression and adipocyte differentiation were examined in primary cultures of porcine S-V cells with Northern blot and immunocytochemical analysis. Seeding for 3 days with fetal bovine serum (FBS) with varying levels of dexamethasone (Dex) increased levels of leptin mRNA in a dosedependent manner in parallel with increases in the proportion of preadipocytes (AD-3 positive cells; AD-3, a preadipocyte marker). Six-day treatment with 10 or 850 nM insulin after FBS+Dex treatment resulted in a similar increase in leptin mRNA expression and morphological differentiation. However, significantly lower levels of leptin mRNA and smaller fat cells were observed in cultures treated with 1 nM insulin or 10 nM insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Dex-induced increases in leptin mRNA levels and AD-3 cell numbers were blocked completely by the addition of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) to FBS+Dex-treated cultures. However TGF-β significantly increased fat cell size and leptin mRNA expression when added to ITS (insulin, 850 nM; transferrin, 5 μg/ml; and selenium, 5 ug/mL) treated cultures during the lipid-filling stage. When added with FBS+DEX for the first 3 days, growth hormone (GH) did not influence the Dex-induced increase in AD-3 cells and leptin mRNA expression, but GH reduced leptin mRNA levels when added with insulin for 6 days after FBS+Dex. These results demonstrated that regulation of leptin mRNA expression by Dex, insulin, IGF-I, TGF-β, and GH may be associated with changes in preadipocyte number and fat cell size. 相似文献

There are multiple regulators of renal proximal tubule sodium-dependent phosphate (Na(+)-Pi) transport, including 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-Vit. D), parathyroid hormone (PTH), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and arachidonic acid (AA) and/or its metabolites. The purpose of our studies was to determine whether the effect of these factors on Pi transport is synergistic or antagonistic. The control solution or the substances were added independently or coincidentally to opossum kidney (OK) cells before incubation for 4 h. 1,25-Vit. D (10(-8) M) had no significant effect on Pi transport ( upward arrow6.8%; p = 0.8). PTH (10(-7) M) significantly inhibited Pi transport by 39.6% (p < 0.0001). IGF-1 (10(-8) M) stimulated Pi transport by 19.6% (p < 0.0001). The AA metabolite 20-HETE (10(-7) M) had no significant impact on Pi transport ( downward arrow6.4; p = 0.3). The combined effect of 1,25-Vit. D and PTH was no different from PTH alone (p = 0.2). Likewise, addition of either 1,25-Vit. D or 20-HETE to IGF-1 failed to affect the magnitude of the increase on Pi transport induced by IGF-1 alone (p = 0.4, p = 0.6, respectively). The combination of 20-HETE and PTH was not different from that observed with PTH alone (p = 0.9). We conclude that in OK cells, PTH inhibits whereas IGF-1 stimulates Pi transport into OK cells. The effects of each of these hormones are independent and unaffected by either 1,25-Vit. D or 20-HETE. 相似文献

Mode of growth hormone action in osteoblasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Growth hormone (GH) affects bone size and mass in part through stimulating insulin-like growth factor type 1 (IGF-1) production in liver and bone. Whether GH acts independent of IGF-1 in bone remains unclear. To define the mode of GH action in bone, we have used a Cre/loxP system in which the type 1 IGF-1 receptor (Igf1r) has been disrupted specifically in osteoblasts in vitro and in vivo. Calvarial osteoblasts from mice homozygous for the floxed IGF-1R allele (IGF-1R(flox/flox)) were infected with adenoviral vectors expressing Cre. Disruption of IGF-1R mRNA (>90%) was accompanied by near elimination of IGF-1R protein but retention of GHR protein. GH-induced STAT5 activation was consistently greater in osteoblasts with an intact IGF-1R. Osteoblasts lacking IGF-1R retained GH-induced ERK and Akt phosphorylation and GH-stimulated IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 mRNA expression. GH-induced osteoblast proliferation was abolished by Cre-mediated disruption of the IGF-1R or co-incubation of cells with an IGF-1-neutralizing antibody. By contrast, GH inhibited apoptosis in osteoblasts lacking the IGF-1R. To examine the effects of GH on osteoblasts in vivo, mice wild type for the IGF-1R treated with GH subcutaneously for 7 days showed a doubling in the number of osteoblasts lining trabecular bone, whereas osteoblast numbers in similarly treated mice lacking the IGF-1R in osteoblasts were not significantly affected. These results indicate that although direct IGF-1R-independent actions of GH on osteoblast apoptosis can be demonstrated in vitro, IGF-1R is required for anabolic effects of GH in osteoblasts in vivo. 相似文献

The effect of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) on progesterone secretion by porcine granulosa cells and their modulatory effect on follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-induced responses were examined. For comparative purposes, growth hormone (GH), previously shown to stimulate IGF-1 secretion, was also included. Granulosa cells from ovarian follicles (3 to 5 mm) were cultured in multiwell plates for the first 48 hours, either in the presence or absence of 1% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Following plating, all cultures were maintained in serum-free media. The addition of only insulin, but not IGF-1 or GH, enhanced progesterone secretion under both culture conditions. When low-density lipoprotein was provided as steroid substrate, a stimulatory effect of insulin on progesterone accumulation was observed with a minimum dose of 10 ng/ml. Granulosa cells cultured in serum-free media from the time of plating secreted less progesterone and were less responsive to FSH compared with cultures plated with 1% FBS. Only insulin, but not IGF-1, enhanced FSH responses to threefold in cells cultured with 1% FBS. However, when cells were cultured in serum-free media from the time of plating, both insulin and IGF-1, but not GH, potentiated the responses to FSH, but insulin was more potent than IGF-1. Insulin-like growth-factor-1 binding studies with granulosa cells indicate the presence of specific high-affinity binding sites (Kd 3.96 nM). A dose of 100 ng/ml of insulin had negligible cross-reactivity with IGF-1 receptors. 相似文献
