Abstract
The past decade has witnessed multiple advances in our understanding of magnesium (Mg(2+)) homeostasis. The discovery that mutations in claudin-16/paracellin-1 or claudin-19 are responsible for familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis provided insight into the molecular mechanisms governing paracellular transport of Mg(2+). Our understanding of the transcellular movement of Mg(2+) was similarly enhanced by the realization that defects in transient receptor potential melastatin 6 (TRPM6) cause hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia. This channel regulates the apical entry of Mg(2+) into epithelia. In so doing, TRPM6 alters whole-body Mg(2+) homeostasis by controlling urinary excretion. Consequently, investigation into the regulation of TRPM6 has increased. Acid-base status, 17beta estradiol, and the immunosuppressive agents FK506 and cyclosporine affect plasma Mg(2+) levels by altering TRPM6 expression. A mutation in epithelial growth factor is responsible for isolated autosomal recessive hypomagnesemia, and epithelial growth factor activates TRPM6. A defect in the gamma-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase causes isolated dominant hypomagnesemia by altering TRPM6 activity through a decrease in the driving force for apical Mg(2+) influx. We anticipate that the next decade will provide further detail into the control of the gatekeeper TRPM6 and, therefore, overall whole-body Mg(2+) balance.

Abstract
A mutation in the human FXYD2 polypeptide (Na-K-ATPase gamma subunit) that changes a conserved transmembrane glycine to arginine is linked to dominant renal hypomagnesemia. Xenopus laevis oocytes injected with wild-type FXYD2 or the mutant G41R cRNAs expressed large nonselective ion currents. However, in contrast to the wild-type FXYD2 currents, inward rectifying cation currents were induced by hyperpolarization pulses in oocytes expressing the G41R mutant. Injection of EDTA into the oocyte removed inward rectification in the oocytes expressing the mutant, but did not alter the nonlinear current-voltage relationship of the wild-type FXYD2 pseudo-steady-state currents. Extracellular divalent ions, Ca2+ and Ba2+, and trivalent cations, La3+, blocked both the wild-type and mutant FXYD2 currents. Site-directed mutagenesis of G41 demonstrated that a positive charge at this site is required for the inward rectification. When the wild-type FXYD2 was expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, the cells in the presence of a large apical-to-basolateral Mg2+ gradient and at negative potentials had an increase in transepithelial current compared with cells expressing the G41R mutant or control transfected cells. Moreover, this current was inhibited by extracellular Ba2+ at the basolateral surface. These results suggest that FXYD2 can mediate basolateral extrusion of magnesium from cultured renal epithelial cells and provide new insights into the understanding of the possible physiological roles of FXYD2 wild-type and mutant proteins.

Abstract
Ca2+ and Mg2+ are essential ions in a wide variety of cellular processes and form a major constituent of bone. It is, therefore, essential that the balance of these ions is strictly maintained. In the last decade, major breakthrough discoveries have vastly expanded our knowledge of the mechanisms underlying epithelial Ca2+ and Mg2+ transport. The genetic defects underlying various disorders with altered Ca2+ and/or Mg2+ handling have been determined. Recently, this yielded the molecular identification of TRPM6 as the gatekeeper of epithelial Mg2+ transport. Furthermore, expression cloning strategies have elucidated two novel members of the transient receptor potential family, TRPV5 and TRPV6, as pivotal ion channels determining transcellular Ca2+ transport. These two channels are regulated by a variety of factors, some historically strongly linked to Ca2+ homeostasis, others identified in a more serendipitous manner. Herein we review the processes of epithelial Ca2+ and Mg2+ transport, the molecular mechanisms involved, and the various forms of regulation.

Abstract
Duct epithelial structure is an essential feature of many internal organs, including exocrine glands and the kidney. The ducts not only mediate fluid transfer but also help to maintain homeostasis. For instance, fluids and solutes are resorbed from or secreted into the primary fluid flowing through the lumen of the ducts in the exocrine glands and kidneys. The molecular mechanism underlying the functional maturation of these ducts remains largely unknown. Here, we show that a grainyhead-related transcription factor, CP2-like 1 (CP2L1), is required for the maturation of the ducts of the salivary gland and kidney. In the mouse, Cp2l1 is specifically expressed in the developing ducts of a number of exocrine glands, including the salivary gland, as well as in those of the kidney. In Cp2l1-deficient mice, the expression of genes directly involved in functional maturation of the ducts was specifically reduced in both the salivary gland and kidney, indicating that Cp2l1 is required for the differentiation of duct cells. Furthermore, the composition of saliva and urine was abnormal in these mice. These results indicate that Cp2l1 expression is required for normal duct development in both the salivary gland and kidney.

Abstract
Functional properties of Na-K-ATPase can be modified by association with FXYD proteins, expressed in a tissue-specific manner. Here we show that expression of FXYDs in cell lines does not necessarily parallel the expression pattern of FXYDs in the tissue(s) from which the cells originate. While being expressed only in lacis cells in the juxtaglomerular apparatus and in blood vessels in kidney, FXYD1 was abundant in renal cell lines of proximal tubule origin (NRK-52E, LLC-PK1, and OK cells). Authenticity of FXYD1 as a part of Na-K-ATPase in NRK-52E cells was demonstrated by co-purification, co-immunoprecipitation, and co-localization. Induction of FXYD2 by hypertonicity (500 mosmol/kgH(2)O with NaCl for 48 h or adaptation to 700 mosmol/kgH(2)O) correlated with downregulation of FXYD1 at mRNA and protein levels. The response to hypertonicity was influenced by serum factors and entailed, first, dephosphorylation of FXYD1 at Ser(68) (1-5 h) and, second, induction of FXYD2a and a decrease in FXYD1 with longer exposure. FXYD1 was completely replaced with FXYD2a in cells adapted to 700 mosmol/kgH(2)O and showed a significantly decreased sodium affinity. Thus dephosphorylation of FXYD1 followed by exchange of regulatory subunits is utilized to make a smooth transition of properties of Na-K-ATPase. We also observed expression of mRNA for multiple FXYDs in various cell lines. The expression was dynamic and responsive to physiological stimuli. Moreover, we demonstrated expression of FXYD5 protein in HEK-293 and HeLa cells. The data imply that FXYDs are obligatory rather than auxiliary components of Na-K-ATPase, and their interchangeability underlies responses of Na-K-ATPase to cellular stress.

Abstract
Members of the FXYD protein family are small membrane proteins which are characterized by an FXYD motif, two conserved glycines and a serine residue. FXYD proteins show a tissue-specific distribution. Recent evidence suggests that 6 out of 7 FXYD proteins, FXYD1 (phospholemman), FXYD2 (gamma subunit of Na,K-ATPase), FXYD3 (Mat-8), FXYD4 (CHIF), FXYD5 (Ric) and FXYD7 associate with Na,K-ATPase and modulate its transport properties e.g. its Na+ and/or its K+ affinity in a distinct way. These results highlight the complex regulation of Na+ and K+ transport which is necessary to ensure proper tissue functions such as renal Na+-reabsorption, muscle contractility and neuronal excitability. Moreover, mutation of a conserved glycine residue into an arginine residue in FXYD2 has been linked to cases of human hypomagnesemia indicating that dysregulation of Na,K-ATPase by FXYD proteins may be implicated in pathophysiological states. A better characterization of this novel regulatory mechanism of Na,K-ATPase may help to better understand its role in physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
The FXYD proteins are a family of seven homologous single transmembrane segment proteins (FXYD1-7), expressed in a tissue-specific fashion. The FXYD proteins modulate the function of Na,K-ATPase, thus adapting kinetic properties of active Na+ and K+ transport to the specific needs of different cells. Six FXYD proteins are known to interact with Na,K-ATPase and affect its kinetic properties in specific ways. Although effects of FXYD proteins on parameters such as K(1/2)Na+, K(1/2)K+, K(m)ATP, and V(max) are modest, usually twofold, these effects may have important long-term consequences for homeostasis of cation balance. In this review we summarize basic features of FXYD proteins and present recent evidence for functional effects, structure-function relations and structural interactions with Na,K-ATPase. We then discuss possible physiological roles, based on in vitro observations and newly available knockout mice models. Finally, we also consider evidence that FXYD proteins affect functioning of other ion transport systems.

Abstract
The gamma-subunit of Na-K-ATPase (FXYD2) and corticosteroid hormone-induced factor (CHIF; FXYD4) are considered pump regulators in kidney tubules. The aim of this study was to expand the information about their locations in the kidney medulla and to evaluate their importance for electrolyte excretion in an animal model. The cellular and subcellular locations and abundances of gamma and CHIF in the medulla of control and sodium-depleted rats were analyzed by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy and semiquantitative Western blotting. The results showed that antibodies against the gamma-subunit COOH terminus and splice variant gamma(a), but not splice variant gamma(b), labeled intercalated cells, but not principal cells, in the initial part of the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD1). In subsequent segments (IMCD2 and IMCD3), all principal cells exhibited distinct basolateral labeling for both the gamma-subunit COOH terminus, splice variant gamma(a), and CHIF. Splice variant gamma(b) was abundant in the inner stripe of the outer medulla but absent in the inner medulla (IM). Double labeling by high-resolution immunoelectron microscopy showed close structural association between CHIF and the Na-K-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit in basolateral membranes. The present observations provide new information about the cellular and subcellular locations of gamma and CHIF in the renal medulla and show a new gamma variant in the IM. Extensive NaCl depletion did not induce significant changes in the locations or abundances of the gamma-subunit COOH terminus and CHIF in different kidney zones. We conclude that the unchanged levels of these two FXYD proteins suggest that they are not primary determinants for urine electrolyte composition during NaCl depletion.

Abstract
FXYD proteins belong to a family of small-membrane proteins. Recent experimental evidence suggests that at least five of the seven members of this family, FXYD1 (phospholemman), FXYD2 (gamma-subunit of Na-K-ATPase), FXYD3 (Mat-8), FXYD4 (CHIF), and FXYD7, are auxiliary subunits of Na-K-ATPase and regulate Na-K-ATPase activity in a tissue- and isoform-specific way. These results highlight the complexity of the regulation of Na+ and K+ handling by Na-K-ATPase, which is necessary to ensure appropriate tissue functions such as renal Na+ reabsorption, muscle contractility, and neuronal excitability. Moreover, a mutation in FXYD2 has been linked to cases of human hypomagnesemia, indicating that perturbations in the regulation of Na-K-ATPase by FXYD proteins may be critically involved in pathophysiological states. A better understanding of this novel regulatory mechanism of Na-K-ATPase should help in learning more about its role in pathophysiological states. This review summarizes the present knowledge of the role of FXYD proteins in the modulation of Na-K-ATPase as well as of other proteins, their regulation, and their structure-function relationship.

Abstract
Interactions of rat FXYD4 (corticosteroid hormone-induced factor (CHIF)), FXYD2 (gamma), or FXYD1 (phospholemman (PLM)) proteins with rat alpha1 subunits of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase have been analyzed by co-immunoprecipitation and covalent cross-linking. In detergent-solubilized membranes from HeLa cells expressing both gamma and CHIF or CHIF and hemagglutinin A-tagged CHIF, mixed complexes of CHIF and gamma or CHIF and hemagglutinin A-tagged CHIF with alpha/beta subunits are undetectable. This implies that the alpha/beta/FXYD protomer is the major species in detergent solution. A lipid-soluble cysteine-cysteine bifunctional reagent, dibromobimane, cross-links CHIF to alpha in colonic membranes but not gamma or PLM to alpha in kidney or heart membranes, respectively. Sequence comparisons of the FXYD proteins suggested that Cys-49 in the trans-membrane segment of CHIF could be involved. In detergent-solubilized HeLa cell membranes, dibromobimane cross-links wild-type CHIF to alpha but not the C49F mutant, and also the corresponding F36C mutant but not wild-type gammab, and F48C but not wild-type PLM. C140S, C338A, C804A, and C966S mutants of the alpha subunit have been expressed. Only the C140S mutant prevents cross-linking with CHIF. The data demonstrated the proximity of trans-membrane segments of CHIF, gamma, and PLM to M2 of alpha. Molecular modeling is consistent with location of the trans-membrane segment of all FXYD proteins between M2, M6, and M9 and the proximity of Cys-49 of CHIF or Phe-36 of gamma with Cys-140 of M2. Cross-linking also demonstrated CHIF-alpha and CHIF-beta proximities in extra-membrane regions, similar to the evidence for gamma-alpha and gamma-beta cross-links.

Abstract
The recent discovery of a family of single-span membrane proteins (the FXYD proteins) introduced a new direction to the rather complicated area of regulation of Na, K-ATPase. At least six members of the family have been shown to associate with the Na, K-ATPase in a cell- and tissue-specific manner, while four of them, namely the gamma subunit (FXYD2), CHIF (FXYD4), phospholemman (FXYD1), and dysadherin (FXYD5) have been identified in kidney. All four exhibited different effects on the properties of the pump in heterologous expression systems. Taken along with their non-overlapping expression patterns in the nephron, this provides a potential structural basis for the segment-specific properties of the Na, K-ATPase that had been reported in a number of papers on kidney physiology. This brief review summarizes our own contributions on structure/functional characterization of one of the family members, the gamma subunit (FXYD2). The focus is on splice variants of gamma, their structural similarity and yet distinct effects conferred to Na, K-ATPase.

Abstract
Before implantation into the uterine wall, the mammalian embryo undergoes a period of cell division, cell shape change, and cell differentiation leading to the formation of an outer epithelium, the trophectoderm. The trophectoderm is the part of the embryo that initiates uterine contact and, after transformation to become the trophoblast, uterine invasion. Similar to the kidney nephron, the trophectoderm is a transporting epithelium with distinct apical and basolateral membrane domains; its function is to facilitate transepithelial Na+ and fluid transport for blastocoel formation. That transport is driven by Na,K-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) localized in basolateral membranes of the trophectoderm. Preimplantation embryos express multiple alpha and beta subunit isoforms of Na,K-ATPase, potentially constituting multiple isozymes, but the basolaterally located alpha1beta1 isozyme appears to function uniquely to drive fluid transport. Embryos unable to express alpha1 subunits because of targeted deletion of the gene are able to form a blastocoel, but they fail to maintain their integrity and expire during the peri-implantation period. Preimplantation embryos also express the gamma subunit, a modulator of Na,K-ATPase activity, but targeted deletion of that gene did not reveal an essential developmental role. The preimplantation embryo offers a unique model for understanding the roles of Na,K-ATPase subunit isoforms in epithelial development and transepithelial transport.
