A plethora of stimuli including hormones and neurotransmitters mediate a rise of the cellular level of cAMP and thereby activation of protein kinase A (PKA). PKA phosphorylates and thereby modulates the activity of a wide range of cellular targets. It is now appreciated that different stimuli induce the activation of PKA at specific sites where the kinase phosphorylates particular substrates in close proximity. The tethering of PKA to cellular compartments is facilitated by A kinase-anchoring proteins (AKAPs). The incorporation of phosphodiesterases (PDEs) into AKAP-based signalling complexes provides gradients of cAMP that regulate PKA activity locally. An example for a process depending on compartmentalised cAMP/PKA signalling is the arginine-vasopressin (AVP)-mediated water reabsorption in renal collecting duct principal cells. Upon activation through AVP, PKA phosphorylates the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) located on intracellular vesicles. The phosphorylation triggers the redistribution of AQP2 to the plasma membrane. AKAP-anchored PKA has been shown to be involved in AQP2 shuttling. Here, AKAP18 isoforms and members of the PDE4 family of PDEs are shown to be differentially localised in renal principal cells. 相似文献

Vasopressin-induced increases in cellular free calcium concentration measured in single cells of rat renal papillary collecting tubule 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We determined the cellular free calcium concentration [Ca2+]i in response to arginine vasopressin (AVP) using single cells of cultured rat renal papillary collecting tubule cells. AVP at a concentration of 1 x 10(-10) M or higher significantly increased [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner. The prompt increase in [Ca2+]i induced by AVP was completely blocked by the V1V2 antagonist, but not by the V1 antagonist. Also, an antidiuretic agonist of 1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) increased [Ca2+]i, which was blocked by the pretreatment with the V1 V2 antagonist. An AVP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was still demonstrable in cells pretreated with Ca2(+)-free medium containing 1 x 10(-3) M EGTA, or a blocker of cellular Ca2+ uptake, 5 x 10(-5) M verapamil. These results indicate that AVP increases [Ca2+]i through the V2 receptor in renal papillary collecting tubule cells where cAMP is a well-known second messenger for AVP, and that cellular free Ca2+ mobilization depends on both the intracellular and extracellular Ca2+. 相似文献

To test the hypothesis that the vasopressin receptors found in seminal vesicles are similar to those present in the renal tubules competition experiments were performed with vasopressin and several analogues with different specificities for the V1 and V2 subtypes of vasopressin receptor. Autoradiographic studies were carried out on sections from seminal vesicles and kidney to identify the cellular target of vasopressin. Vasopressin receptors in renal medulla and seminal vesicles of pigs shared the same rank order of potency for vasopressin and its analogues and were localized in the epithelium of the seminal vesicles and in collecting tubules of renal medulla. These results strongly suggest that the vasopressin receptors present in kidney and seminal vesicles belong to the same subtype, V2, of vasopressin receptor. 相似文献

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lysophospholipid that is a notable biomarker of kidney injury. However, it is not clear how LPA is produced in renal cells. In this study, we explored LPA generation and its enzymatic pathway in a rat kidney-derived cell, NRK52E cells. Culturing of NRK52E cells with acyl lysophosphatidylcholine (acyl LPC), or lyso-platelet activating factor (lysoPAF, alkyl LPC) was resulted in increased extracellular level of choline, co-product with LPA by lysophospholipase D (lysoPLD). Their activities were enhanced by addition of calcium ions to the cell culture medium, but failed to be inhibited by S32826, an autotaxin (ATX)-specific inhibitor. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric analysis revealed the small, but significant extracellular production of acyl LPA/cyclic phosphatidic acid (cPA) and alkyl LPA/cPA. The mRNA expression of glycerophosphodiesterase (GDE) 7 with lysoPLD activity was elevated in confluent NRK52E cells cultured over 3 days. GDE7 plasmid-transfection of NRK52E cells augmented both extracellular and intracellular productions of LPAs (acyl and alkyl) as well as extracellular productions of cPAs (acyl and alkyl) from exogenous LPCs (acyl and alkyl). These results suggest that intact NRK52E cells are able to produce choline and LPA/cPA from exogenous LPCs through the enzymatic action of GDE7 that is located on the plasma membranes and intracellular membranes. 相似文献

A high-fat diet (HFD) is a major risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Although HFD promotes renal injury, characterized by increased inflammation and oxidative stress leading to fibrosis, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, we investigated the role and mechanism of protease-activating receptor 2 (PAR2) activation during HFD-induced renal injury in C57/BL6 mice. HFD for 16 weeks resulted in kidney injury, manifested by increased blood levels of blood urea nitrogen, increased levels of oxidative stress with inflammation, and structural changes in the kidney tubules. HFD-fed kidneys showed elevated PAR2 expression level in the tubular epithelial region. To elucidate the role of PAR2, PAR2 knockout mice and their littermates were administered HFD. PAR2 deficient kidneys showed reduced extent of renal injury. PAR2 deficient kidneys showed significantly decreased levels of inflammatory gene expression and macrophage infiltration, followed by reduced accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins. Using NRK52E kidney epithelial cells, we further elucidated the mechanism and role of PAR2 activation during renal injury. Palmitate treatment increased PAR2 expression level in NRK52E cells and scavenging of oxidative stress blocked PAR2 expression. Under palmitate-treated conditions, PAR2 agonist-induced NF-κB activation level was higher with increased chemokine expression level in the cells. These changes were attenuated by the depletion of oxidative stress. Taken together, our results suggest that HFD-induced PAR2 activation is associated with increased levels of renal oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and fibrosis. 相似文献

Placental leucine aminopeptidase (P-LAP), also called oxytocinase, is an enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing oxytocin. This enzyme is identical to cystine aminopeptidase. We examined the tissue distribution of P-LAP in normal adult mice and also in mothers and fetuses during mouse pregnancy using immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis. P-LAP-immunoreactive protein was expressed in various organs in a cell- and gestational stage-dependent manner. In the kidney, P-LAP was located in distal and collecting tubules but not in proximal tubules. The islet of Langerhans in the maternal pancreas stained positively for P-LAP in the periphery in early gestation. This staining pattern changed so that both the periphery and inner cells were positive during mid-gestation and finally only inner cells were positive in late gestation. Among the hematopoietic cells in the fetal liver, only megakaryocytes showed strong expression of P-LAP. The staining intensity increased with gestation on the apical surface of trophoblasts in the placental labyrinth. These data demonstrate that P-LAP is present in a variety of tissues, and its presence is affected by pregnancy and fetal development. Therefore, P-LAP may play a significant role in various physiological processes in non-pregnant, pregnant, and fetal mice. 相似文献

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) increases the water permeability of renal collecting duct principal cells by inducing the fusion of vesicles containing the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) with the plasma membrane (AQP2 shuttle). This event is initiated by activation of vasopressin V2 receptors, followed by an elevation of cAMP and the activation of protein kinase A (PKA). The tethering of PKA to subcellular compartments by protein kinase A anchoring proteins (AKAPs) is a prerequisite for the AQP2 shuttle. During the search for AKAP(s) involved in the shuttle, a new splice variant of AKAP18, AKAP18delta, was identified. AKAP18delta functions as an AKAP in vitro and in vivo. In the kidney, it is mainly expressed in principal cells of the inner medullary collecting duct, closely resembling the distribution of AQP2. It is present in both the soluble and particulate fractions derived from renal inner medullary tissue. Within the particulate fraction, AKAP18delta was identified on the same intracellular vesicles as AQP2 and PKA. AVP not only recruited AQP2, but also AKAP18delta to the plasma membrane. The elevation of cAMP caused the dissociation of AKAP18delta and PKA. The data suggest that AKAP18delta is involved in the AQP2 shuttle. 相似文献

Aquaporin-2, a water-channel protein, is known to increase water permeability due to vasopressin binding to V2 receptors at the renal collecting duct and is excreted into the urine. It is still unclear whether a hyponatremic state is caused by vasopressin-dependent aquaporin-2 in patients clinically diagnosed with the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. To determine this, we measured urinary aquaporin-2 and vasopressin by radioimmunoassay in normonatremic or hyponatremic patients after cerebral infarction and in healthy controls. In the normonatremia group, urinary aquaporin-2 and plasma AVP levels were higher than in controls. In the hyponatremia group, plasma AVP was relatively high despite low plasma osmolality in each patient. However, urinary aquaporin-2 in hyponatremia was significantly increased when compared with the other two groups. In conclusion, AQP-2 increment does not directly reflect non-osmotic AVP secretion in a hyponatremic state. This result indicates that the urinary excretion of AQP-2 is not only AVP-dependent in hyponatremic states. 相似文献

Fine regulation of water reabsorption by the antidiuretic hormone [8-arginine]vasopressin (AVP) occurs in principal cells of the collecting duct and is largely dependent on regulation of the aquaporin-2 (AQP2) water channel. AVP-inducible long term AQP2 expression was investigated in immortalized mouse cortical collecting duct principal cells. Combined RNase protection assay, Western blot, and immunofluorescence analyses revealed that physiological concentrations of AVP added to the basal side, but not to the apical side, of cells grown on filters induced both AQP2 mRNA and apical protein expression. The stimulatory effect of AVP on AQP2 expression followed a V(2) receptor-dependent pathway because [deamino-8-d-arginine]vasopressin (dDAVP), a specific V(2) receptor agonist, produced the same effect as AVP, whereas the V(2) antagonist SR121463B antagonized action of both AVP and dDAVP. Moreover, forskolin and cyclic 8-bromo-AMP fully reproduced the effects of AVP on AQP2 expression. Analysis of protein degradation pathways showed that inhibition of proteasomal activity prevented synthesis of AVP-inducible AQP2 mRNA and protein. Once synthesized, AQP2 protein was quickly degraded, a process that involves both the proteasomal and lysosomal pathways. This is the first study that delineates induction and degradation mechanisms of AQP2 endogenously expressed by a renal collecting duct principal cell line. 相似文献

It has been documented that arginine vasopressin (AVP) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) regulate water reabsorption in renal tubular cells. The present study was attempted to delineate the downstream signaling of AVP and PGE(2) in a cortical collecting duct cell line (M-1 cell). Using RT-PCR, we detected mRNA for V2 and VACM-1 but not for V1a and AII/AVP receptors of AVP. Furthermore, neither AVP nor V2 receptor agonist and antagonist alter cellular cAMP. These together with unchanged cellular Ca(2+) by AVP suggested that AVP pathway was not operating in M-1 cells. All four classical PGE(2) receptors with EP3 and EP4 as the most prominent were detected in M-1 cells. PGE(2), 11-deoxy-PGE(1) (EP2 and EP4 agonist), and 17-phenyl-trinor-PGE(2) (EP1 agonist) increased cellular concentration of cAMP. There was no effect of PGE(2) or EP1 agonist on cellular Ca(2+). These findings provide evidence of the involvement of PGE(2) cascade in M-1 cells. M-1 cells were capable of synthesizing nitric oxide (NO). Although individual cytokines did not affect NO production, a mixture of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interferon-gamma elevated NO concentration to 4.5-fold of the control. Addition of PGE(2) and db-cAMP to the cytokine mixture further increased NO production to 7.0- and 9.8-fold, respectively, of that seen in non-treated cells. PGE(2) or db-cAMP alone, however, had no effect on NO production. The results of the study led us to speculate that enhanced production of cAMP via PGE(2) signaling pathway in M-1 cells could either stimulate or attenuate water reabsorption in renal tubule. While an increase in cAMP alone may enhance water reabsorption, a concomitant increase in cAMP and cytokines may inhibit water reabsorption in renal tubule. 相似文献

The effect of arginine vasopressin (AVP) on Na+ kinetics was examined in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and rat renal papillary collecting tubule cells (RPCT) by the direct measurement of intracellular sodium concentration [(Na+]i) using fluorescence dye; SBFI. AVP increased [Na+]i in a dose-dependent manner at a concentration of 10(-9) M or higher in rat VSMC but did not affect [Na+]i in rat RPCT. The calcium (Ca2+)-free solution completely blocked the increasing effect of AVP on [Na+]i in rat VSMC. A Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin (1-2 x 10(-6) M) increased [Na+]i both in rat VSMC and RPCT. The Ca2(+)-free solution abolished the ionomycin-increased [Na+]i both in rat VSMC and RPCT. These results therefore indicate that after binding the V1 receptor AVP increases [Na+]i mediated through an increase in cellular Ca2+ uptake in VSMC. 相似文献

Arginine-vasopressin (AVP) regulates water reabsorption in renal collecting duct principal cells. Its binding to Gs-coupled vasopressin V2 receptors increases cyclic AMP (cAMP) and subsequently elicits the redistribution of the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) from intracellular vesicles into the plasma membrane (AQP2 shuttle), thereby facilitating water reabsorption from primary urine. The AQP2 shuttle is a paradigm for cAMP-dependent exocytic processes. Using sections of rat kidney, the AQP2-expressing cell line CD8, and primary principal cells, we studied the role of the motor protein myosin Vb, its vesicular receptor Rab11, and the myosin Vb- and Rab11-binding protein Rab11-FIP2 in the AQP2 shuttle. Myosin Vb colocalized with AQP2 intracellularly in resting and at the plasma membrane in AVP-treated cells. Rab11 was found on AQP2-bearing vesicles. A dominant-negative myosin Vb tail construct and Rab11-FIP2 lacking the C2 domain (Rab11-FIP2-DeltaC2), which disrupt recycling, caused condensation of AQP2 in a Rab11-positive compartment and abolished the AQP2 shuttle. This effect was dependent on binding of myosin Vb tail and Rab11-FIP2-DeltaC2 to Rab11. In summary, we identified myosin Vb as a motor protein involved in AQP2 recycling and show that myosin Vb- and Rab11-FIP2-dependent recycling of AQP2 is an integral part of the AQP2 shuttle. 相似文献

Steroid hormones such as 17β-estradiol (E2) are known to modulate ion transporter expression in the kidney through classic intracellular receptors. Steroid hormones are also known to cause rapid nongenomic responses in a variety of nonrenal tissues. However, little is known about renal short-term effects of steroid hormones. Here, we studied the acute actions of E2 on intracellular Ca(2+) signaling in isolated distal convoluted tubules (DCT2), connecting tubules (CNT), and initial cortical collecting ducts (iCCD) by fluo 4 fluorometry. Physiological concentrations of E2 induced transient increases in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in a subpopulation of cells. The [Ca(2+)](i) increases required extracellular Ca(2+) and were inhibited by Gd(3+). Strikingly, the classic E2 receptor antagonist ICI 182,780 also increased [Ca(2+)](i), which is inconsistent with the activation of classic E2 receptors. G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1 or GPR30) was detected in microdissected DCT2/CNT/iCCD by RT-PCR. Stimulation with the specific GPER1 agonist G-1 induced similar [Ca(2+)](i) increases as E2, and in tubules from GPER1 knockout mice, E2, G-1, and ICI 182,780 failed to induce [Ca(2+)](i) elevations. The intercalated cells showed both E2-induced concanamycin-sensitive H(+)-ATPase activity by BCECF fluorometry and the E2-mediated [Ca(2+)](i) increment. We propose that E2 via GPER1 evokes [Ca(2+)](i) transients and increases H(+)-ATPase activity in intercalated cells in mouse DCT2/CNT/iCCD. 相似文献

Numb was originally discovered as an intrinsic cell fate determinant in Drosophila by antagonizing Notch signaling. The present study is to characterize the role of Numb in oxidative stress-induced apoptosis of renal proximal tubular cells. Exposure of NRK52E cells to puromycin aminonucleoside (PA) resulted in caspase 3-dependent apoptosis. Numb expression was downregulated by PA in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Knocking down endogenous Numb by siRNA sensitized NRK52E cells to PA-induced apoptosis, whereas overexpressing Numb protected NRK52E cells from PA-induced apoptosis. Moreover, PA activated Notch signaling in a time- and dose-dependent manner as indicated by increased expression of the intracellular domain of Notch and Hes-1. Notch signaling inhibitor DAPT significantly attenuated Numb siRNA-augmented apoptosis. On the other hand, overexpression of intracellular domain of Notch1 could reverse the protective effect of Numb on PA-induced apoptosis. Taken together, our data demonstrated that, in renal proximal tubular cells, Numb functions as a protective molecule on PA-induced apoptosis through antagonizing Notch signaling activity. 相似文献

Interrelationships among prostaglandins, vasopressin and cAMP in renal papillary collecting tubule cells in culture 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To determine the influence of prostaglandins on cAMP metabolism in renal papillary collecting tubule (RPCT) cells, intracellular cAMP levels were measured after incubating cells with prostaglandins (PGs) alone or in combination with arginine vasopressin (AVP). PGE1, PGE2 and PGI2, but not PGD2 or PGF2 alpha, increased intracellular cAMP concentrations. At maximal concentrations (10(-5) M) the effects of PGE2 plus PGI2 (or PGE1), but not of PGI2 plus PGE1, were additive suggesting that at least two different PG receptors may be present in RPCT cell populations. Bradykinin treatment of RPCT cells caused an accumulation of intracellular cAMP which was blocked by aspirin and was quantitatively similar to that observed with 10(-5) M PGE2. PGs, when tested at concentrations (e.g. 10(-9) M) which had no independent effect on intracellular cAMP levels, did not inhibit the AVP-induced accumulation of intracellular cAMP in RPCT cells. These results indicate that PGs do not block AVP-induced accumulation of intracellular cAMP in RPCT cells at concentrations of PGs which have been shown to inhibit the hydroosmotic effect of AVP on perfused collecting tubule segments. However, at higher concentrations of PGs (e.g. 10(-5) M), the effects of AVP plus PGE1, PGE2, PGI2 or bradykinin on intracellular cAMP levels were not additive. Thus, under certain conditions, there is an interaction between PGs and AVP at the level of cAMP metabolism in RPCT cells. 相似文献

In order to evaluate the receptor subtypes of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in early proximal tubule (S1), outer medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (MTAL) and collecting tubule (OMCT), the effect of AVP on intracellular free calcium ([Ca++]i) was determined using the fluorescence indicator Fura-2. Physiological concentration (greater than or equal to 10(-12) M) of AVP in MTAL and OMCT mobilized [Ca++]i in a dose-dependent manner, but relatively high concentration (greater than or equal to 10(-9) M) of AVP in S1 increased [Ca++]i. Moreover, pretreatment with both V1 and V2 antagonists in MTAL or OMCT completely inhibited the AVP-induced [Ca++]i transient, but in S1 partially blocked it. Using several AVP analogues, a relative distribution of AVP receptor subtypes was tentatively calculated in each nephron segment, indicating that although these nephron segments possess V1, its density was very low (about 10%). The majority (about 90%) of AVP receptor in MTAL and OMCT was V2, while that in S1 was a new subtype (named Vp) which is insensitive to V1 and V2 antagonists. To evaluate physiological significance of Vp receptor, AVP-mediated cellular ATP change was measured. Cellular ATP content in S1 was significantly increased by 10(-7) M AVP, but in MTAL it was significantly decreased by the same concentration of AVP. This study suggests that a novel AVP receptor exists in isolated rat S1, and its physiological significance may be the inhibition of ATP-consuming ion transport system. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess whether endogenous Ang II and oxidative stress produced by acute hypertonic sodium overload may regulate the expression of aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) and aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) in the kidney. Groups of anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats were infused with isotonic saline solution (control) or with hypertonic saline solution (Na group, 1 M NaCl), either alone or with losartan (10 mg kg?1) or tempol (0.5 mg min?1 kg?1) during 2 h. Renal function parameters were measured. Groups of unanesthetized animals were injected intraperitoneally with hypertonic saline solution, with or without free access to water intake, Na+W, and Na?W, respectively. The expression of AQP-1, AQP-2, Ang II, eNOS, and NF-kB were evaluated in the kidney by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. AQP-2 distribution was assessed by immunofluorescence. Na group showed increased natriuresis and diuresis, and Ang II and NF-kB expression, but decreased eNOS expression. Losartan or tempol enhanced further the diuresis, and AQP-2 and eNOS expression, as well as decreased Ang II and NF-kB expression. Confocal immunofluorescence imaging revealed labeling of AQP-2 in the apical plasma membrane with less labeling in the intracellular vesicles than the apical membrane in kidney medullary collecting duct principal cells both in C and Na groups. Importantly, our data also show that losartan and tempol induces a predominantly accumulation of AQP-2 in intracellular vesicles. In unanesthetized rats, Na+W group presented increased diuresis, natriuresis, and AQP-2 expression (112?±?25 vs 64?±?16; *p?<?0.05). Water deprivation increased plasma sodium and diuresis but decreased AQP-2 (46?±?22 vs 112?±?25; §p?<?0.05) and eNOS expression in the kidney. This study is a novel demonstration that renal endogenous Ang II–oxidative stress, induced in vivo in hypernatremic rats by an acute sodium overload, regulates AQP-2 expression. 相似文献

To identify molecules that might contribute to V2 vasopressin receptor (V2R) trafficking or signaling, we searched for novel interacting proteins with this receptor. Preliminary data, using the V2R C terminus as bait in a yeast two-hybrid screen, revealed calmodulin as a binding partner. Because calmodulin interacts with other G protein-coupled receptors, we explored this interaction and its possible functional relevance in greater detail. A Ca2+ -dependent interaction occurs between calmodulin-linked agarose and the holo-V2R as well as the V2R C terminus. Truncation and site-directed mutagenesis of the V2R C terminus revealed an involvement of an RGR sequence in this interaction. NMR studies showed that a peptide fragment of the V2R C terminus containing the RGR sequence binds to calmodulin in a Ca2+ -dependent manner with a Kd < or =1.5 microm; concentration-dependent binding of the V2R C terminus to calmodulin-agarose was used to estimate a Kd value of approximately 200 nm for this entire C-terminal sequence as expressed in mammalian cells. Madin-Darby canine kidney II cells stably expressing either wild type or a mutant V2R, in which the RGR C-terminal sequence was mutated to alanines (AAA V2R), revealed that the steady-state localization and agonist-induced internalization of the AAA V2R resembled that of the wild type V2R in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney II cells. V2R binding of agonist similarly was unchanged in the AAA V2R, as was the concentration response for arginine vasopressin (AVP)-stimulated cAMP accumulation. Most interestingly, AVP-induced increases in intracellular Ca2+ observed for the wild type V2R were virtually eliminated for the AAA V2R. Taken together, the data suggest that a C-terminal region of the V2R important for calmodulin interaction is also important in modulation of V2R elevation of intracellular Ca2+, a prerequisite for AVP-induced fusion of aquaporin-containing vesicles with the apical surface of renal epithelial cells. 相似文献

The physiological importance of the insulin responsive glucose transporter GLUT4 in adipocytes and muscle in maintaining glucose homeostasis is well established. A key protein associated with this process is the aminopeptidase IRAP which co-localizes with GLUT4 in specialized vesicles, where it plays a tethering role. In this study, we investigated the distribution of both GLUT4 and IRAP in the kidney to gain insights into the potential roles of these proteins in this organ. Both IRAP and GLUT4 immunostaining was observed in the epithelial cells of the proximal and distal tubules and thick ascending limbs in the cortex, but very little overlap between GLUT4 and IRAP immunoreactivity was observed. GLUT4 staining was consistent with a vesicular localization, whereas IRAP staining was predominantly on the luminal surface. In the principal cells of the inner medulla collecting duct (IMCD), IRAP immunoreactivity was detected throughout the cell, with limited overlap with the vasopressin responsive water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP-2). AQP-2 levels were observed to be two-fold higher in IRAP knockout mice. Based on our results, we propose that GLUT4 plays a role in shunting glucose across epithelial cells. In the kidney cortex, IRAP, in concert with other peptidases, may be important in the generation of free amino acids for uptake, whereas in the principal cells of the inner medulla IRAP may play a localized role in the regulation of vasopressin bioactivity. 相似文献

Arginine-vasopressin (AVP) has been proposed to be involved in the modulation of acid-base transporters; however, the nature of the mechanisms underlying AVP direct action on intracellular pH (pH(i)) in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) is not yet clearly defined. The aim of the present study was to elucidate which are the proteins implicated in AVP modulation of pH(i), as well as the receptors involved in these responses using a CCD cell line (RCCD(1)); pH(i) was monitored with the fluorescent dye BCECF in basal conditions and after stimulation with basolateral 10(-8) M AVP. Specific V1- or V2-receptor antagonists were also used. RT-PCR studies demonstrated that RCCD(1) cells express V1a and V2 receptors. Functional studies showed that while V2-receptor activation induced a biphasic response (alkalinization-acidification), V1-receptor activation resulted in an intracellular acidification. The V2-mediated alkalinization phase involves the activation of basolateral NHE-1 isoform of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger while in the acidification phase CFTR is probably implicated. On the other hand, V1-mediated acidification was due to activation of a Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger. We conclude that in RCCD(1) cells AVP selectively activates, via a complex of V1 and V2 receptor-mediated actions, different ion transporters linked to pH(i) regulation which might have physiological implications. 相似文献
