Abstract
The electrophysiological effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) were studied in a primary cell culture model of the chick (Gallus domesticus) proximal tubule. In this model, confluent monolayers are grown on permeable filters and exhibit vectorial transport, including glucose-stimulated current. Under short-circuit conditions, PTH, at 10(-9) M, induced a positive current [short-circuit current (I(sc))] response, with an average 2-min peak response of 14.30 +/- 1.58 microA/cm(2) over the baseline I(sc,) followed by a slow decay. The PTH response was dose dependent, with a half-maximal response at 5 x 10(-9) M and maximal response at 5 x 10(-8) M. Forskolin and dibutyryl-cAMP also stimulated I(sc), as did the phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX. In contrast, the phorbol ester PMA inhibited baseline I(sc). The PTH response was nearly abolished by apical addition of 100 microM EIPA, an inhibitor of Na(+)/H(+) exchangers, and partially blocked by the Cl(-) channel blockers 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB; 100 microM) and glibenclamide (300 microM). Higher doses of EIPA or NPPB alone (500 microM) were almost fully effective, with no or slight additional effects of NPPB or EIPA, respectively. The anion exchange inhibitor DIDS (100 microM) and the Na(+) channel blocker amiloride (10 microM) had no effect. Bilateral reduction of Cl(-) in the buffer, from 137 to 2.6 mM, abolished the PTH response; increasing Cl(-) concentration restored the I(sc) response, with a half-maximal effect at 50 mM. These data suggest that, in the chick proximal tubule, PTH activates both an Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and a Cl(-) channel that may be functionally linked.

Abstract
Renal cortical phenol injection provokes acute sympathetic nervous system-dependent hypertension and a shift of proximal tubule Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) and Na(+)-P(i) cotransporter type 2 (NaPi2) to apical microvilli. This study aimed to determine whether proximal tubule (PT) Na(+) transporter redistribution persists chronically and whether the pool sizes of renal Na(+) transporters are altered. At 5 wk after a 50-microl 10% phenol injection, blood pressure is elevated: 154 +/- 8 vs. 113 +/- 11 mmHg after saline injection. Cortical membranes were fractionated into three "windows" enriched in apical brush border (WI), mixed apical and intermicrovillar cleft (WII), and intracellular membranes (WIII). NHE3 relative distribution in these windows, assessed by immunoblots and expressed as %total, remained shifted to apical from intracellular membranes (WI: 25.3 +/- 3 in phenol vs.12.7 +/- 3% in saline and WIII: 9.1 +/- 1.3 in phenol vs. 18.9 +/- 3% in saline). NaPi2 and dipeptidyl-peptidase IV also remained shifted to WI, and alkaline phosphatase activity increased 100.9 +/- 29.7 (WI) and 51.4 +/- 17.5% (WII) in phenol-injected membranes. Na(+) transporter total abundance [NHE3, NaPi2, thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter, bumetanide-sensitive Na-K-2Cl cotransporter, Na-K-ATPase alpha(1)- and beta(1)-subunits, and epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) alpha- and beta-subunits] was profiled by immunoblotting. Only cortical NHE3 abundance was altered, decreasing to 0.56 +/- 0.06. The results demonstrate that phenol injury provokes a persistant shift of PT NHE3 and NaPi2 to the apical microvilli, along with a 44% decrease in total NHE3, evidence for an escape mechanism that would counteract the redistribution of a larger fraction of NHE3 to the apical surface by normalizing the total amount of NHE3 in apical membranes.

Abstract
The recently defined FXYD protein family contains seven members that are small, single-span membrane proteins characterized by a signature sequence containing an FXYD motif and three other conserved amino acid residues. Until recently, the functional role of FXYD proteins was largely unknown, with the exception of the gamma subunit of Na,K-ATPase, which was shown to be a specific regulator of renal alpha1-beta1 isozymes. We have investigated whether other members of the FXYD family may have a similar role as the gamma subunit and have found that CHIF (corticosteroid hormone-induced factor, FXYD4), FXYD7, as well as phospholemman (FXYD1) specifically associate with Na,K-ATPase and preferentially with alpha1-beta isozymes in native tissues, and produce distinct effects on the transport properties of Na,K-ATPase that are adapted to the physiological demands of the tissues in which they are expressed. These results provide evidence for a unique and novel mode of regulation of Na,K-ATPase by FXYD proteins that involves a tissue-specific expression of an auxiliary subunit of distinct Na,K-ATPase isozymes.

Abstract
The collecting duct is the site of final Na reabsorption according to Na balance requirements. Using isolated rat cortical collecting ducts (CCD) and mpkCCD(cl4) cells, a mouse cortical collecting duct cell line, we have studied the physiological control of Na,K-ATPase, the key enzyme that energizes Na reabsorption. Aldosterone, a major regulator of Na transport by the collecting duct, stimulates Na,K-ATPase activity through both recruitment of intracellular pumps and increased total amounts of Na pump subunits. This effect is observed after a lag time of 1 hour and is independent of Na entry through ENaC, but requires de novo transcription and translation. Vasopressin and cAMP, its second messenger, stimulate Na,K-ATPase activity within minutes through translocation of Na pumps from a brefeldin A-sensitive intracellular pool to the plasma membrane. Dysregulation of collecting duct Na,K-ATPase activity is at least in part responsible of the Na retention observed in nephritic syndrome. In this setting, Na,K-ATPase activity and subunit synthesis are specifically increased in CCD. In conclusion, aldosterone, vasopressin, and intracellular Na control the cell surface expression of Na,K-ATPase and translocation from intracellular stores is a major mechanism of regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in collecting duct principal cells.

Abstract
Pulmonary edema is the hallmark of acute respiratory distress syndrome. It occurs when the permeability of the alveolar-capillary barrier is increased, causing alveolar flooding and impaired gas exchange. The mechanisms of alveolar fluid resorption are different from those of alveolar edema formation. Alveolar fluid resorption into the vessels is brought about mainly by active transport of sodium ions (Na+) out of the alveolar spaces with water following the osmotic gradient. Na+ transport across the alveolar epithelium, and thus alveolar fluid resorption, is regulated by apical Na+ channels, the basolateral sodium potassium-adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase), and possibly chloride channels. The Na,K-ATPase has been localized to the alveolar epithelium and the importance of its role in contributing to lung edema clearance has been demonstrated. In models of lung injury, several reports have shown that catecholamines such as isoproterenol and dopamine up-regulate Na+ channels and the Na,K-ATPase giving rise to increased alveolar fluid resorption. Although recombinant gene technology is not yet a therapeutic option for the treatment of pulmonary edema, several experimental studies have reported that overexpression of Na,K-ATPase genes causes increased fluid resorption during hyperoxic lung injury. There is significant evidence that fluid clearance is impaired in patients with lung injury. Therapeutic strategies aimed at increasing the ability of alveolar epithelium to resorb the edema should lead to benefits for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein 4.1 is an adapter protein that links the actin cytoskeleton to various transmembrane proteins. These 4.1 proteins are encoded by four homologous genes, 4.1R, 4.1G, 4.1N, and 4.1B, which undergo complex alternative splicing. Here we performed a detailed characterization of the expression of specific 4.1 proteins in the mouse nephron. METHODS Distribution of renal 4.1 proteins was investigated by staining of paraformaldehyde-fixed mouse kidney sections with antibodies highly specific for each 4.1 protein. Major 4.1 splice forms, amplified from mouse kidney marathon cDNA, were expressed in transfected COS-7 cells in order to assign species of known exon composition to proteins detected in kidney. RESULTS A 105 kD 4.1R splice form, initiating at ATG-2 translation initiation site and lacking exon 16, but including exon 17B, was restricted to thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. A 95 kD 4.1N splice form, lacking exons 15 and 17D, was expressed in either descending or ascending thin limb of Henle's loop, distal convoluted tubule, and all regions of the collecting duct system. A major 108 kD 4.1B splice form, initiating at a newly characterized ATG translation initiation site, and lacking exons 15, 17B, and 21, was present only in Bowman's capsule and proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). There was no expression of 4.1G in kidney. CONCLUSION Distinct distribution of 4.1 proteins along the nephron suggests their involvement in targeting of selected transmembrane proteins in kidney epithelium and, therefore, in regulation of specific kidney functions.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) increases Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in lung alveolar epithelial cells. This effect is associated with an increase in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase molecules within the plasma membrane (). Analysis of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase motion was performed in real-time in alveolar cells stably expressing Na(+),K(+)-ATPase molecules carrying a fluorescent tag (green fluorescent protein) in the alpha-subunit. The data demonstrate a distinct (random walk) pattern of basal movement of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase-containing vesicles in nontreated cells. DA increased the directional movement (by 3.5 fold) of the vesicles and an increase in their velocity (by 25%) that consequently promoted the incorporation of vesicles into the plasma membrane. The movement of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase-containing vesicles and incorporation into the plasma membrane were microtubule dependent, and disruption of this network perturbed vesicle motion toward the plasma membrane and prevented the increase in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity induced by DA. Thus, recruitment of new Na(+),K(+)-ATPase molecules into the plasma membrane appears to be a major mechanism by which dopamine increases total cell Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity.

Abstract
Exercise has been reported to increase the Na+-K+-ATPase (Na+-K+ pump) alpha2 isoform in the plasma membrane 1.2- to 1.9-fold, purportedly reflecting Na+-K+ pump translocation from an undefined intracellular pool. We examined whether Na+-K+ pump stimulation, elicited by muscle contraction or insulin, increases the plasma membrane Na+-K+ pump content ([3H]ouabain binding) in muscles from young rats. Stimulation of isolated soleus muscle for 10 s at 120 Hz caused a rapid rise in intracellular Na+ content, followed by an 18-fold increase in the Na+ re-extrusion rate (80 % of theoretical maximum). Muscles frozen immediately or 120 s after 10-120 s stimulation showed 10-22 % decrease in [3H]ouabain binding expressed per gram wet weight, but with no significant change expressed per gram dry weight. In soleus muscles from adult rats, [3H]ouabain binding was unaltered after 10 s stimulation at 120 Hz. Extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles stimulated for 10-60 s at 120 Hz showed no significant change in [3H]ouabain binding. Insulin (100 mU ml-1) decreased intracellular Na+ content by 27 % and increased 86Rb uptake by 23 % soleus muscles, but [3H]ouabain binding was unchanged. After stimulation for 30 s at 60 Hz soleus muscle showed a 30% decrease in intracellular Na+ content, demonstrating increased Na+-K+ pump activity, but [3H]ouabain binding measured 5 to 120 min after stimulation was unchanged. Stimulation of soleus or EDL muscles for 120-240 min at 1 Hz (continuously) or 10 Hz (intermittently) produced no change in [3H]ouabain binding per gram dry weight. In conclusion, the stimulating effects of electrical stimulation or insulin on active Na+, K+-transport in rat skeletal muscle could not be even partially accounted for by an acute increase in the content of functional Na+ -K+ pumps in the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Maintenance of the Na+ and K+ gradients between the intracellular and extracellular milieus of animal cells is a prerequisite for basic cellular homeostasis and for functions of specialized tissues. The Na,K-ATPase, an oligomeric P-type adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), is composed of a catalytic alpha subunit and a regulatory beta subunit and is the main player that fulfils these tasks. A variety of regulatory mechanisms are necessary to guarantee appropriate Na,K-ATPase expression and activity adapted to changing physiological demands. Recently, a regulatory mechanism was defined that is mediated by interaction of Na,K-ATPase with small proteins of the FXYD family, which possess a single transmembrane domain and so far have been considered as channels or regulators of ion channels. The mammalian FXYD proteins FXYD1 through FXYD7 exhibit tissue-specific distribution. Phospholemman (FXYD1) in heart and skeletal muscle, the gamma subunit of Na,K-ATPase (FXYD2) and corticosteroid hormone-induced factor (FXYD4, also known as CHIF) in the kidney, and FXYD7 in the brain associate preferentially with the widely expressed Na,K-ATPase alpha1-beta1 isozyme and modulate its transport activity in a way that conforms to tissue-specific requirements. Thus, tissue- and isozyme-specific interaction of Na,K-ATPase with FXYD proteins contributes to proper handling of Na+ and K+ by the Na,K-ATPase, and ensures correct function in such processes as renal Na+-reabsorption, muscle contraction, and neuronal excitability.

Abstract
With the aim of identifying possible gene targets for direct or indirect regulation by vasopressin in the renal medulla, we have carried out cDNA array experiments in inner medullas of Brattleboro rats infused with the V(2) receptor-selective vasopressin analog desamino-Cys1,d-Arg8 vasopressin (dDAVP) for 72 h. Of the 1,176 genes on the array, 137 transcripts were increased by 2-fold or more, and 10 transcripts were decreased to 0.5-fold or less. Quantitative, real-time RT-PCR measurements confirmed increases seen for six selected transcripts (Wilms' tumor protein, beta-arrestin 2, neurofibromin, casein kinase IIbeta, aquaporin-3, and aquaporin-4). To correlate changes in mRNA expression with changes in protein expression, we carried out quantitative immunoblotting for 28 of the proteins whose cDNAs were on the array. For several targets including aquaporin-2, transcript abundance and protein abundance changes did not correlate. However, for most genes examined, changes in mRNA abundances were associated with concomitant protein abundance changes. Targets with demonstrated increases in both protein and mRNA abundances included neurofibromin, casein kinase IIbeta, the beta-subunit of the epithelial Na channel (beta-ENaC), 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2, and c-Fos. Additional cDNA arrays revealed that several transcripts that were increased in abundance after 72 h of dDAVP were also increased after 4 h, including casein kinase IIbeta, beta-ENaC, aquaporin-3, UT-A, and syntaxin 2. These studies have identified several transcripts whose abundances are regulated in the inner medulla in response to infusion of dDAVP and that could play roles in the regulation of salt and water excretion.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS C-peptide, the cleavage product of proinsulin processing exerts physiological effects including stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in erythrocytes and renal proximal tubules. This study was undertaken to assess the physiological effects of connecting peptide on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. METHODS Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was measured as the ouabain-sensitive generation of (32)Pi from gamma[(32)P]-ATP and (86)Rb uptake on isolated rat medullary thick ascending limbs. The cell-surface expression of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was evaluated by Western blotting of biotinylated proteins, and its phosphorylation amount was measured by autoradiography. The membrane-associated fraction of protein kinase C isoforms was evaluated by Western blotting. RESULTS Rat connecting peptide concentration-dependently stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity with a threshold at 10(-9) mol/l and a maximal effect at 10(-7) mol/l. C-peptide (10(-7) mol/l) already stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity after 5 min with a plateau from 15 to 60 min. C-peptide (10(-7) mol/l) stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and (86)Rb uptake to the same extent, but did not alter Na(+),K(+)-ATPase cell surface expression. The stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was associated with an increase in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit phosphorylation and both effects were abolished by a specific protein kinase C inhibitor. Furthermore, connecting peptide induced selective membrane translocation of PKC-alpha. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION This study provides evidence that in rat medullary thick ascending limb, C-peptide stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity within a physiological concentration range. This effect is due to an increase in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase turnover rate that is most likely mediated by protein kinase C-alpha phosphorylation of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit, suggesting that C-peptide could control Na(+) reabsorption during non-fasting periods.

Abstract
Chronic ethanol exposure causes alterations in biologic membranes of different cell types. (Na + K) adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), a membrane-bound enzyme inhibited by the acute presence of ethanol, increases its activity in rat kidney after chronic ethanol consumption. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of ethanol on the modulation of (Na + K)-ATPase by glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in renal papillary collecting duct cells. Cultured renal papillary collecting duct cells were exposed to a medium containing 150 mM ethanol plus either 100 nM aldosterone or 10 nM dexamethasone. Control groups were cultured in the absence of ethanol and/or the hormones. Mg(2+)-ATPase was used as control enzyme. The activity of ATPases was measured by ATP hydrolysis. Ethanol increased the activities of (Na + K)-ATPase and Mg(2+)- ATPase in 29 and 33% of controls, respectively; only (Na + K)-ATPase activity was elevated in the presence of aldosterone or dexamethasone, whereas Mg(2+)-ATPase was unaltered by these hormones. The effects of aldosterone and dexamethasone on (Na + K)-ATPase activity were augmented by ethanol in 50 and 19% of controls, respectively. These results suggest that ethanol treatment enhances the upregulation of (Na + K)-ATPase activity by both aldosterone and dexamethasone, in cultured renal papillary collecting duct cells.

Abstract
1. The present study demonstrates that stimulation of hormonal receptors of proximal tubule cells with the serotonin-agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetraline (8-OH-DPAT) induces an augmentation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity that results from the recruitment of enzyme molecules to the plasmalemma. 2. Cells expressing the rodent wild-type Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit had the same basal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity as cells expressing the alpha-subunit S11A or S18A mutants, but stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was completely abolished in either mutant. 3. 8-OH-DPAT treatment of OK cells led to PKC(beta)-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit Ser-11 and Ser-18 residues, and determination of enzyme activity with the S11A and S18A mutants indicated that both residues are essential for the agonist-dependent stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. 4. When cells were treated with both dopamine and 8-OH-DPAT, an activation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was observed at basal intracellular sodium concentration (approximately 9 mM), and this activation was gradually reduced and became a significant inhibition as the concentration of intracellular sodium gradually increased from 9 to 19 mM. Thus, besides the antagonistic effects of dopamine and 8-OH-DPAT, intracellular sodium modulates whether an activation or an inhibition of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is produced.

Abstract
The present study investigates the cellular mechanisms responsible for dopamine D2-like receptor-mediated stimulation of Na+ - K+-ATPase in the proximal tubules of the kidney. Previously, we showed that D2-like receptor-mediated increase in Na+ - K+-ATPase involves an increase in the maximum rate of Na+ - K+-ATPase activity (V(max)). Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that D2-like receptor-mediated stimulation of Na+ - K+-ATPase requires phosphorylation and recruitment of alpha 1-subunits of the enzyme from cytosol to the membrane. This hypothesis was tested by Western blotting for Na+ - K+-ATPase alpha 1-subunits in proximal tubular membrane. Treatment of the proximal tubules with bromocriptine (D2-like receptor agonist) caused an increase in Na+ - K+-ATPase alpha 1-subunit abundance in the membrane preparations. This effect was blocked by genistein (tyrosine kinase inhibitor), suggesting a role for tyrosine phosphorylation. Moreover, bromocriptine caused an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of membrane-bound Na+ - K+-ATPase alpha 1-subunits. This effect was blocked by bafilomycin A1 (vesicular trafficking inhibitor), which suggested that this increase was due to the recruitment of tyrosine-phosphorylated Na+ - K+-ATPase alpha 1-subunits. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that activation of D2-like receptors increases Na+ - K+-ATPase activity by recruitment of the tyrosine-phosphorylated alpha 1-subunits in the proximal tubules of the kidney.

Abstract
Acute hypertension inhibits proximal tubule (PT) sodium reabsorption. The resultant increase in NaCl delivery to the macula densa suppresses renin release. We tested whether the sustained pressure-induced inhibition of PT sodium reabsorption requires a renin-mediated decrease in ANG II levels. Plasma ANG II concentration of anesthesized Sprague-Dawley rats was clamped by simultaneous infusion of the ANG I-converting enzyme inhibitor captopril (12 microg/min) and ANG II (20 ng. kg(-1). min(-1)). Blood pressure was increased 50 mmHg for 20 min by arterial constriction +/- ANG II clamp or by sham operation. This acute hypertension increased urine output and endogenous Li(+) clearance, and these responses were blunted 40-50% in ANG II clamped rats. Acute hypertension provoked a rapid redistribution of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) out of apical brush-border membranes (21 +/- 4% decrease of total NHE3 abundance) to endosomal/lysosomal membranes (16 +/- 6% increase of total). In ANG II-clamped rats, acute hypertension also provoked disappearance of NHE3 from the apical membranes (27 +/- 2% decrease of total), but NHE3 was shifted to membranes enriched in intermicrovillar cleft and dense apical tubules (step 1) rather than endosomal/lysosomal membranes (step 2). This difference was independently confirmed by confocal analysis. In contrast, the pressure-induced redistribution of Na(+)-P(i) cotransporter type 2 was not altered by ANG II clamp. We conclude that the responses to acute hypertension, including diuresis and redistribution of PT NHE3 into intracellular membranes, require a responsive renin-angiotensin system and that the responses may be induced by the sustained increase in NaCl delivery to the macula densa during acute hypertension.

Abstract
In the present work we studied the modulation of the effect of urea on the renal (Na+ + K+)ATPase by cAMP. We observed that urea inhibits the (NA+ + K+)ATPase activity in a dose-dependent manner, reaching 60% of inhibition at the concentration of 1M. This effect was completely reversed by dibutyryl-cAMP (dBcAMP) at 5 x 10(-4)M. The effect of dBcAMP was mimicked by 50 units of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A and completely abolished by 5 x 10(-7)M H89, an inhibitor of protein kinase A. Addition of 1M urea decreases basal phosphorylation of the immunoprecipitated (NA+ + K+)ATPase in 50%, with this effect completely reversed by 5 x 10(-4)M dBcAMP. Furthermore, 5 x 10(-4)M dBcAMP by itself induced (NA+ + K+)ATPase phosphorylation. Taken together these data indicate that cAMP could be, in addition to the organic solutes already known, an important physiological modulator of the deleterious effect of urea on enzyme activity.

Abstract
The distribution of transmembrane proteins is considered to be crucial for their activities because these proteins mediate the information coming from outside of cells. A small GTPase Rho participates in many cellular functions through its downstream effectors. In this study, we examined the effects of RhoA on the distribution of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, one of the transmembrane proteins. In polarized renal epithelium, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is known to be localized at the basolateral membrane. By microinjection of the constitutively active mutant of RhoA (RhoA(Val14)) into cultured renal epithelial cells, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was translocated to the spike-like protrusions over the apical surfaces. Microinjection of the constitutively active mutant of other Rho family GTPases, Rac1 or Cdcd42, did not induce the translocation. The translocation induced by RhoA(Val14) was inhibited by treatment with Y-27632, a Rho-kinase specific inhibitor, or by coinjection of the dominant negative mutant of Rho-kinase. These results indicate that Rho and Rho-kinase are involved in the regulation of the localization of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. We also found that Na(+),K(+)-ATPase seemed to be colocalized with ERM proteins phosphorylated at T567 (ezrin), T564 (radixin), and T558 (moesin) in cells microinjected with RhoA(Val14).

Abstract
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) plays a central role in water balance. In principal cells of the collecting duct system, AVP controls the expression of several genes, including aquaporin-2. Because nitric oxide (NO) participates in the regulation of water reabsorption by the collecting duct system, we analyzed the effect of AVP on the expression of NO synthase (NOS) isoforms in the kidney. Rats were either water restricted or water loaded to modify the circulating AVP levels, and expressions of NOS isoforms were assessed by Western blot analysis. In water-restricted rats, endothelial NOS (eNOS) expression increased in the outer medulla, and neuronal NOS (nNOS) expression rose in both the outer medulla and the papilla. Conversely, water loading induced a decrease in expression of nNOS in the outer medulla and papilla but did not alter eNOS expression. Oral administration of the specific V(2)-receptor antagonist SR-121463B decreased nNOS expression in the outer medulla and papilla but did not alter eNOS expression levels. Finally, the very low nNOS expression levels observed in AVP-deficient Brattleboro rats was restored by AVP infusion for 1 wk. Thus AVP specifically increases nNOS expression levels in the renal outer medulla and papilla. Because nNOS is specifically expressed in principal cells of the collecting duct system, the stimulation of nNOS expression by AVP may participate in the control of water reabsorption.

Abstract
Recently, our group described an AT(1)-mediated direct stimulatory effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) on the Na(+)-ATPase activity of proximal tubules basolateral membranes (BLM) [Am. J. Physiol. 248 (1985) F621]. Data in the present report suggest the participation of a protein kinase C (PKC) in the molecular mechanism of Ang II-mediated stimulation of the Na(+)-ATPase activity due to the following observations: (i) the stimulation of protein phosphorylation in BLM, induced by Ang II, is mimicked by the PKC activator TPA, and is completely reversed by the specific PKC inhibitor, calphostin C; (ii) the Na(+)-ATPase activity is stimulated by Ang II and TPA in the same magnitude, being these effects abolished by the use of the PKC inhibitors, calphostin C and sphingosine; (iii) the Na(+)-ATPase activity is activated by catalytic subunit of PKC (PKC-M), in a similar and nonadditive manner to Ang II; and (iv) Ang II stimulates the phosphorylation of MARCKS, a specific substrate for PKC.

Abstract
A family of small, single-span membrane proteins (the FXYD family) has recently been defined based on their sequence and structural homology. Some members of this family have already been identified as tissue-specific regulators of Na,K-ATPase (NKA). In the present study, we demonstrate that phospholemman (PLM) (FXYD1), so far considered to be a heart- and muscle-specific channel or channel-regulating protein, associates specifically and stably with six different alpha-beta isozymes of NKA after coexpression in Xenopus oocytes, and with alpha1-beta, and less efficiently with alpha2-beta isozymes, in native cardiac and skeletal muscles. Stoichiometric association of PLM with NKA occurs posttranslationally either in the Golgi or the plasma membrane. Interaction of PLM with NKA induces a small decrease in the external K+ affinity of alpha1-beta1 and alpha2-beta1 isozymes and a nearly 2-fold decrease in the internal Na+ affinity. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that PLM is a tissue-specific regulator of NKA that may play an essential role in muscle contractility.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the enhanced expression of G(i) proteins in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) that precedes the development of high blood pressure may be one of the contributing factors in the pathogenesis of hypertension. In the present study, we demonstrate that the inactivation of G(i) proteins by intraperitoneal injection of pertussis toxin (PT, 1.5 micro g/100 g body wt) into 2-week-old prehypertensive SHR prevented the development of hypertension up to 4 weeks and that, thereafter, it started to increase and reached the same level found in untreated SHR after 6 weeks. A second injection of PT after 4 weeks delayed the increase in blood pressure for another week. The PT-induced decrease in blood pressure in 6-week-old SHR was associated with a decreased level of G(i)alpha-2 and G(i)alpha-3 proteins in the heart, as determined by in vitro ADP ribosylation and immunoblotting. The decreased level of G(i) proteins was reflected in decreased G(i) functions. Furthermore, an augmentation of blood pressure to the same level in PT-treated SHR as found in untreated SHR was associated with enhanced expression and function of G(i). These results indicate that the inactivation of G(i) proteins by PT treatment in prehypertensive SHR attenuates the development of hypertension and suggest that the enhanced levels of G(i) proteins that result in the decreased levels of cAMP and associated impaired cellular functions may be contributing factors in the pathogenesis of hypertension in SHR.

Abstract
The human nongastric H+-K+-ATPase, ATP1AL1, shown to reabsorb K+ in exchange for H+ or Na+, is localized in the luminal plasma membrane of renal epithelial cells. It is presumed that renal H+-K+-ATPases can be regulated by endocytosis. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that control plasma membrane expression of renal H+-K+-ATPases. In our study, activation of protein kinase C (PKC) using phorbol esters (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) leads to clathrin-dependent internalization and intracellular accumulation of the ion pump in stably transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Functional inactivation of the H+-K+-ATPase by PKC activation is shown by intracellular pH measurements. Proton extrusion capacity of ATP1AL1-transfected cells is drastically reduced after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate incubation and can be prevented with the PKC blocker bisindolylmaleimide. Ion pump internalization and inactivation are specifically mediated by the PKC pathway, whereas activation of the protein kinase A pathway has no influence. Our results show that the nongastric H+-K+-ATPase is a specific target for the PKC pathway. Therefore, PKC-mediated phosphorylation is a potential regulatory mechanism for apical nongastric H+-K+-ATPase plasma membrane expression.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of D2-like dopamine receptor activation on Na+-K+-ATPase activity while apical-to-basal, ouabain-sensitive, amphotericin B-induced increases in short-circuit current and basolateral K+ (I(K)) currents in opossum kidney cells were measured. The inhibitory effect of dopamin on Na+-K+-ATPase activity was completely abolished by either D1- or D2-like receptor antagonists and mimicked by D1- and D2-like receptor agonists SKF-38393 and quinerolane, respectively. Blockade of basolateral K+ channels with BaCl2 (1 mM) or glibenclamide (10 microM), but not apamin (1 microM), totally prevented the inhibitory effects of quinerolane. The K+ channel opener pinacidil decreased Na+-K+-ATPase activity. The inhibitory effect of quinerolane on Na+-K+- ATPase activity was abolished by pretreatment of opossum kidney cells with pertussis toxin (PTX). Quinerolane increased I(K) across the basolateral membrane in a concentration-dependent manner; this effect was abolished by pretreatment with PTX, S-sulpiride, and glibenclamide. SKF-38393 did not change I(K). Both H-89 (protein kinase A inhibitor) and chelerythrine (protein kinase C inhibitor) failed to prevent the stimulatory effect of quinerolane on I(K). The stimulation of the D2-like receptor was associated with a rapid hyperpolarizing effect, whereas D1-like receptor activation was accompanied by increases in cell membrane potential. It is concluded that stimulation of D2-like receptors leads to inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase activity and hyperpolarization; both effects are associated with the opening of K+ channels.

Abstract
The two variants of the gamma subunit of the rat renal sodium pump, gamma(a) and gamma(b), have similar effects on the Na,K-ATPase. Both increase the affinity for ATP due to a shift in the enzyme's E(1) <--> E(2) conformational equilibrium toward E(1). In addition, both increase K(+) antagonism of cytoplasmic Na(+) activation. To gain insight into the structural basis for these distinct effects, extramembranous N-terminal and C-terminal mutants of gamma were expressed in rat alpha1-transfected HeLa cells. At the N terminus, the variant-distinct region was deleted (gammaNDelta7) or replaced by alanine residues (gammaN7A). At the C terminus, four (gamma(a)CDelta4) or ten (gamma(a)CDelta10) residues were deleted. None of these mutations abrogates the K(+)/Na(+) antagonism as evidenced in a similar increase in K'(Na) seen at high (100 mm) K(+) concentration. In contrast, the C-terminal as well as N-terminal deletions (gammaNDelta7, gamma(a)CDelta4, and gamma(a)CDelta10) abolished the decrease in K'(ATP) seen with wild-type gamma(a) or gamma(b). It is concluded that different regions of the gamma chain mediate the distinct functional effects of gamma, and the effects can be long-range. In the transmembrane region, the impact of G41R replacement was analyzed since this mutation is associated with autosomal dominant renal Mg(2+)-wasting in man (Meij, I. C., Koenderink, J. B., van Bokhoven, H., Assink, K. F. H., Groenestege, W. T., de Pont, J. J. H. H. M., Bindels, R. J. M., Monnens, L. A. H., Van den Heuvel, L. P. W. J., and Knoers, N. V. A. M. (2000) Nat. Genet. 26, 265-266). The results show that Gly-41 --> Arg prevents trafficking of gamma but not alphabeta pumps to the cell surface and abrogates functional effects of gamma on alphabeta pumps. These findings underscore a potentially important role of gamma in affecting solute transport, in this instance Mg(2+) reabsorption, consequent to its primary effect on the sodium pump.

Abstract
We recently reported that NADH oxidase is one of the major enzymes responsible for superoxide (O(2)(-)*) production in the rat kidney. However, the functional significance of NADH oxidase-mediated O. production and the mechanisms regulating this enzyme activity are poorly understood. Using fluorescence microscopic imaging analysis, the present study demonstrated that thick ascending limbs of Henle's loop (TALHs) exhibited red fluorescence when incubated with dihydroethidium (DHE), suggesting that O(2)(-)* is produced in this tubular segment. Compared with other nephron segments, TALHs from both renal cortex and medulla showed the highest fluorescence intensity. By incubating cortical TALHs (cTALHs) with the substrates of NADH oxidase, xanthine oxidase, nitric oxide synthase, arachidonic acid-metabolizing enzymes, and intramitochondrial oxidases, NADH oxidase was found to be one of the most important enzymes for O(2)(-)* production in this tubular segment. The NADH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI; 100 microM) completely blocked NADH-induced O(2)(-)* production in cTALHs. Exposure of cTALHs to low PO(2) (5-10 Torr) significantly increased O(2)(-)* production regardless of the absence or presence of NADH. Furthermore, angiotensin II (100 nM) increased NADH oxidase activity by 32%, which was completely blocked by DPI. These results suggest that NADH oxidase is a major enzyme responsible for O(2)(-)* production in the TALHs and that the production of O(2)(-)* via NADH oxidase may be regulated by renal tissue oxygenation and circulating hormones.

Abstract
We studied the molecular events set into motion by stimulation of D(1)-like receptors downstream of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, while measuring apical-to-basal ouabain-sensitive, amphotericin B-induced increases in short-circuit current in opossum kidney (OK) cells. The D(1)-like receptor agonist SKF-38393 decreased Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity (IC(50), 130 nM). This effect was prevented by the D(1)-like receptor antagonist SKF-83566, overnight cholera toxin treatment, the protein kinase A (PKA) antagonist H-89, or the PKC antagonist chelerythrine, but not the mitogen-activated PK inhibitor PD-098059 or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002. Dibutyryl cAMP (DBcAMP) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) both effectively reduced Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. PKA downregulation abolished the inhibitory effects of SKF-38393 and DBcAMP but not those of PDBu. PKC downregulation abolished inhibition by PDBu, SKF-38393, and DBcAMP. The phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U-73122 prevented inhibition by SKF-38393 and DBcAMP. However, DBcAMP increased PLC activity. Although OK cells express both G(s)alpha and G(q/11)alpha proteins, D(1)-like receptors are coupled to G(s)alpha proteins only, as evidenced by studies in cells treated overnight with specific antibodies raised against G(s)alpha and G(q/11)alpha proteins. We conclude that PLC and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase are effector proteins for PKA and PKC, respectively, after stimulation of D(1)-like receptors coupled to G(s)alpha proteins, in a sequence of events that begins with adenylyl cyclase-PKA system activation followed by PLC-PKC system activation.

Abstract
Our laboratory has shown that dopamine D(2)-like receptor activation causes stimulation of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA) activity in the proximal tubules of the rat kidney. The present study was designed to investigate the cellular signaling mechanisms mediating this response to D(2)-like receptor activation. We measured the stimulation of NKA activity by bromocriptine (D(2)-like receptor agonist) in the absence and presence of PD-98059 [p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase inhibitor] and genistein (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) in renal proximal tubules. Both agents inhibited bromocriptine-mediated stimulation of NKA, suggesting the involvement of p44/42 MAPK and tyrosine kinase in this response. Additionally, we found that bromocriptine increased the phosphorylation of p44/42 MAPK in the proximal tubules, which was blocked by PD-98059 and genistein. These results show that D(2)-like receptor activation causes stimulation of NKA activity by means of a tyrosine kinase-p44/42 MAPK pathway in the proximal tubules of the kidney.

Abstract
Bartter syndrome and Gitelman syndrome are primary hereditary diseases characterized by hypokaliemia, alkalosis, hypertrophy of the juxtaglomerular complex with secondary hyperaldoteronism and normal blood pressure. They result from molecular disorders leading to a defect of sodium reabsorption in respectively the Henle's loop and the distal convoluted tubule. Biological adaptations of downstream tubular segments, i.e. distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct, are responsible for hypokaliemia, alkalosis, renin-aldosterone activation, prostaglandins hypersecretion and dysregulation of the urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium, illustrating the close integration of the regulation of different solutes in the distal tubular structures.

Abstract
The systemic actions of aldosterone are well documented; however, in comparison, our understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which aldosterone orchestrates these actions is rudimentary. Aldosterone exerts most of its physiological actions by modifying gene expression. It is now apparent that aldosterone represses almost as many genes as it induces. Several aldosterone-sensitive genes, including serum and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase (sgk) and small, monomeric Kirsten Ras GTP-binding protein (Ki-ras) have recently been identified. The molecular mechanisms and elements bestowing corticosteroid sensitivity on these and many other genes are becoming clear. Induction of Ki-Ras and Sgk is necessary and sufficient for some portion of aldosterone action in epithelia. These two signaling factors are components of a converging pathway with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase positioned between them that enables both stabilizing the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) in the open state as well as increasing the number of ENaC in the apical membrane. This aldosterone-induced signaling pathway contains many potential sites for feedback regulation and cross talk from other cascades and potentially impinges directly on the activity of transport proteins and/or cellular differentiation to modify electrolyte transport.

Abstract
Sodium and potassium-exchanging adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) in the kidney is associated with the gamma subunit (gamma, FXYD2), a single-span membrane protein that modulates ATPase properties. Rat and human gamma occur in two splice variants, gamma(a) and gamma(b), with different N termini. Here we investigated their structural heterogeneity and functional effects on Na,K-ATPase properties. Both forms were post-translationally modified during in vitro translation with microsomes, indicating that there are four possible forms of gamma. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed Thr(2) and Ser(5) as potential sites for post-translational modification. Similar modification can occur in cells, with consequences for Na,K-ATPase properties. We showed previously that stable transfection of gamma(a) into NRK-52E cells resulted in reduction of apparent affinities for Na(+) and K(+). Individual clones differed in gamma post-translational modification, however, and the effect on Na(+) affinity was absent in clones with full modification. Here, transfection of gamma(b) also resulted in clones with or without post-translational modification. Both groups showed a reduction in Na(+) affinity, but modification was required for the effect on K(+) affinity. There were minor increases in ATP affinity. The physiological importance of the reduction in Na(+) affinity was shown by the slower growth of gamma(a), gamma(b), and gamma(b') transfectants in culture. The differential influence of the four structural variants of gamma on affinities of the Na,K-ATPase for Na(+) and K(+), together with our previous finding of different distributions of gamma(a) and gamma(b) along the rat nephron, suggests a highly specific mode of regulation of sodium pump properties in kidney.

Abstract
Renal Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is associated with the gamma-subunit (FXYD2), a single-span membrane protein that modifies ATPase properties. There are two splice variants with different amino termini, gamma(a) and gamma(b). Both were found in the inner stripe of the outer medulla in the thick ascending limb. Coimmunoprecipitation with each other and the alpha-subunit indicated that they were associated in macromolecular complexes. Association was controlled by ligands that affect Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase conformation. In the cortex, the proportion of the gamma(b)-subunit was markedly lower, and the gamma(a)-subunit predominated in isolated proximal tubule cells. By immunofluorescence, the gamma(b)-subunit was detected in the superficial cortex only in the distal convoluted tubule and connecting tubule, which are rich in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase but comprise a minor fraction of cortex mass. In the outer stripe of the outer medulla and for a short distance in the deep cortex, the thick ascending limb predominantly expressed the gamma(b)-subunit. Because different mechanisms maintain and regulate Na(+) homeostasis in different nephron segments, the splice forms of the gamma-subunit may have evolved to control the renal Na(+) pump through pump properties, gene expression, or both.

Abstract
Ligand-receptor coupling is one of the important constituents of signal transduction and is essential for physiological transmission of actions of endogenous substances including steroid hormones. However, molecular mechanisms of the redundancy between glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions remain unknown because of complicated cross-talk among, for example, these adrenal steroids, their cognate receptors, and target genes. Receptor-specific ligand that can distinctly modulate target gene expression should be developed to overcome this issue. In this report, we showed that a pyrazolosteroid cortivazol (CVZ) does not induce either nuclear translocation or transactivation function of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) but does both for the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Moreover, deletion analysis of the C-terminal end of the GR has revealed that CVZ interacts with the distinct portion of the ligand binding domain (LBD) and differentially modulates the ligand-dependent interaction between transcription intermediary factor 2 and the LBD when compared with cortisol, dexamethasone, and aldosterone. Thus, it is indicated that CVZ may not be only a molecular probe for the analysis of the redundancy between the GR and MR in vivo but also a useful reagent to clarify structure-function relationship of the GR LBD.

Abstract
Extracellular nucleotides regulate renal transport. A luminal P2Y2 receptor in mouse cortical collecting duct (CCD) principal cells has been demonstrated elsewhere. Herein the effects of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and uridine triphosphate (UTP) on electrogenic Na+ absorption in perfused CCD of mice kept on a low-NaCl diet were investigated. Simultaneously, transepithelial voltage (V(te)), transepithelial resistance (R(te)), and fura-2 [Ca2+]i fluorescence were measured. Baseline parameters were V(te), -16.5 +/- 1.2 mV; R(te), 80.8 +/- 7.1 Omega cm2; and equivalent short-circuit current (I(sc)), -261.0 +/- 25.1 microA/cm2 (n = 45). Amiloride (10 microM) almost completely inhibited I(sc) to -3.9 +/- 3.8 microA/cm2 (n = 10). Luminal ATP (100 microM) reduced V(te) from -16.5 +/- 2.1 to -12.5 +/- 1.93 and increased R(te) from 113.1 +/- 16.2 to 123.8 +/- 16.7 Omega cm2, which resulted in a 31.7% inhibition of amiloride-sensitive I(sc) (n = 12). Similarly, luminal UTP reversibly reduced V(te) from -22.0 +/- 2.1 to -13.6 +/- 2.1 mV and increased R(te) from 48.4 +/- 5.3 to 59.2 +/- 7.1 Omega cm2, which resulted in 49.1% inhibition of Na+ absorption (n = 6). In parallel, luminal ATP and UTP elevated [Ca2+]i in CCD, increasing the fura-2 ratio by 2.7 +/- 0.7 and 4.0 +/- 1.2, respectively. Basolateral ATP and UTP (100 microM) also inhibited amiloride-sensitive I(sc) by 21.8 (n = 14) and 20.1% (n = 8), respectively. Inhibition of luminal nucleotide-induced [Ca2+]i increase by Ca2+ store depletion with cyclopiazonic acid (3 microM) did not affect nucleotide-mediated inhibition of Na+ transport (n = 7). No evidence indicated the activation of a luminal Ca2+-activated Cl- conductance, a phenomenon previously shown in M-1 CCD cells (J Physiol 524: 77-99, 2000). In essence, these data indicate that luminal ATP and UTP, most likely via P2Y2 receptors, mediate inhibition of amiloride-sensitive I(sc) in perfused mouse CCD. This inhibition appears to occurs independently of an increase of cytosolic Ca2+.

Abstract
Aldosterone controls extracellular volume and blood pressure by regulating Na+ reabsorption, in particular by epithelia of the distal nephron. A main regulatory site of this transcellular transport is the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) that mediates luminal Na+ influx. The Na,K-ATPase (Na+ pump) that coordinately extrudes Na+ across the basolateral membrane is known to be regulated by short term aldosterone as well. We now show that in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) from adrenalectomized rats, the increase in Na,K-ATPase activity (approximately 3-fold in 3 h), induced by a single aldosterone injection, can be fully accounted by the increase in Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression (+ 497 +/- 35%). The short term aldosterone action was further investigated in cultured mouse collecting duct principal cells mpkCCD(cl4). Within 2 h, maximal Na,K-ATPase function assessed by Na+ pump current (I(p)) measurements and Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression were increased by 20-50%. Aldosterone did not modify the Na+ dependence of the Na+ pumps and induced transcription- and translation-dependent actions on pump surface expression and current independently of ENaC-mediated Na+ influx. In summary, short term aldosterone directly increases the cell surface expression of pre-existing Na+ pumps in kidney CCD target cells. Thus, aldosterone controls Na+ reabsorption in the short term not only by regulating the apical cell surface expression of ENaC (Loffing, J., Zecevic, M., Feraille, E., Kaissling, B., Asher, C., Rossier, B. C., Firestone, G. L., Pearce, D., and Verrey, F. (2001) Am. J. Physiol. 280, F675-F682) but also by coordinately acting on the basolateral cell surface expression of the Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
In diabetes, the activity of Delta-6 desaturase, which converts linoleic acid (LA) into gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), the first step of arachidonic acid (AA) synthesis, is decreased, leading to alterations in membrane phospholipid composition. On the other hand, 12 wk after the onset of diabetes, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity is reduced in many organs, including the kidney. The medullary thick ascending limb (MTAL) reduced Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, whereas the sodium load secondary to glomerular hyperfiltration was increased. The aim of our study was to examine whether the changes in membrane fatty acid composition resulting from the inhibition of Delta-6 desaturase may be involved in the decreased Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity observed in the outer MTAL after 12 wk of diabetes. GLA is a fatty acid that by-passes the Delta-6 desaturase step. We measured the membrane fatty acid composition and the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in the renal outer medulla of control and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats 12 wk after the induction of diabetes. Measurements were performed after supplementation of control rats with sunflower oil (SO) or GLA for 12 wk, and supplementation of 12 wk diabetic rats with SO for 12 wk or with GLA for 6 or 12 wk. Supplementation with GLA not only prevented the decrease in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity observed after 12 wk of diabetes but also time dependently stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in the outer medulla. The changes in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity were related to parallel changes in the amount of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1) subunit protein. In addition, in diabetic rats only, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was positively correlated with the amount of AA present in cell membranes (r = 0.92, P < 0.05). Our results indicate that nutritional GLA supplementation increases Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and expression in diabetic rats. In addition, the positive correlation between AA content and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity suggests that in diabetic rats, alterations in membrane fatty acid composition contribute to the decreased Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in outer medulla.

Abstract
Renal sodium retention is responsible for ascites and edema in nephrotic syndrome. In puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-induced nephrosis, sodium retention originates in part from the collecting duct, and it is associated with increased Na,K-ATPase activity in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). The aims of this study were to evaluate whether the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD) also participates to sodium retention and to determine the mechanisms responsible for stimulation of Na,K-ATPase in CCD. PAN nephrosis increased Na,K-ATPase activity in the CCD but not in OMCD. The two-fold increase of Na,K-ATPase activity in CCD was associated with two-fold increases in the number of alpha and beta Na,K-ATPase subunits mRNA determined by quantitative RT-PCR and of the total amount of Na,K-ATPase alpha subunits estimated by Western blotting. PAN nephrosis also increased two-fold the amount of Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit at the basolateral membrane of CCD principal cells, as determined by Western blotting after biotinylation and streptavidin precipitation and by immunofluorescence. The intracellular pool of latent Na,K-ATPase units also increased in size and was no longer recruitable by vasopressin and cAMP. This unresponsiveness of the intracellular pool of Na,K-ATPase to vasopressin was not the result of any alteration of the molecular and functional expression of the vasopressin V(2) receptor/adenylyl cyclase (AC) complex. It is concluded that PAN nephrosis (1) does not alter sodium reabsorption in OMCD, (2) is associated with increased synthesis and membrane expression of Na,K-ATPase in the CCD, and (3) alters the normal trafficking of intracellular Na,K-ATPase units to the basolateral membrane.

Abstract
The gamma-subunit of the Na-K-ATPase is a single-span membrane protein that alters the kinetic properties of the enzyme. It is expressed in the kidney, but our initial observations indicated that it is not present in all nephron segments (Arystarkhova E, Wetzel RK, Asinovski NK, and Sweadner KJ. J Biol Chem 274: 33183-33185, 1999). Here we used triple-label confocal immunofluorescence microscopy in rat kidney with antibodies to Na-K-ATPase alpha1- and gamma-subunits and nephron segment-specific markers. Na-K-ATPase alpha1-subunit stain was low but unambiguous in proximal segments, moderate in macula densa, connecting tubules, and cortical collecting ducts, high in thick ascending limb and distal convoluted tubules, and nearly undetectable in glomeruli, descending and ascending thin limb, and medullary collecting ducts. The gamma-subunit colocalized at staining levels similar to alpha1-subunit in basolateral membranes in all segments except cortical thick ascending limb and cortical collecting ducts, which had alpha1-subunit but no detectable gamma-subunit stain. Selective gamma-subunit expression may contribute to the variations in Na-K-ATPase properties in different renal segments.

Abstract
The aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron extends from the second part of the distal convoluted tubule to the inner medullary collecting duct. As recently shown, aldosterone increases within two hours the abundance of the alpha-subunit of the epithelial sodium channel along the entire aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, whereas it induces only in an initial portion of the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron an apical translocation of all three epithelial sodium channel subunits. This suggests that another factor or factors determines the length of the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron portion in which aldosterone controls epithelial sodium channel surface expression. Since the glucocorticoid-induced kinase SGK1 was identified as aldosterone-induced protein in 1999, it has been postulated to play a key regulatory role. The in-vivo localization of its induction to segment-specific cells of the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, and the in-vitro correlation of the amount of its hyperphosphorylated form with transepithelial sodium transport, support this hypothesis. Other recent studies unravel pathways other than those activated by aldosterone and insulin that impact on SGK1 expression and/or function, and thus shed some light onto the complex network that appears to control sodium transport. In view of the ongoing research, the question of how, and formally also whether, SGK1 acts on the epithelial sodium channel should be resolved in the near future.

Abstract
The biological role of small membrane proteins of the new FXYD family is largely unknown. The best characterized FXYD protein is the gamma-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase (NKA) that modulates the Na,K-pump function in the kidney. Here, we report that, similarly to gamma(a) and gamma(b) splice variants, the FXYD protein CHIF (corticosteroid-induced factor) is a type I membrane protein which is associated with NKA in renal tissue, and modulates the Na,K-pump transport when expressed in Xenopus oocytes. In contrast to gamma(a) and gamma(b), which both decrease the apparent Na+ affinity of the Na,K-pump, CHIF significantly increases the Na+ affinity and decreases the apparent K+ affinity due to an increased Na+ competition at external binding sites. The extracytoplasmic FXYD motif is required for stable gamma-subunit and CHIF interaction with NKA, while cytoplasmic, positively charged residues are necessary for the gamma-subunit's association efficiency and for CHIF's functional effects. These data document that CHIF is a new tissue-specific regulator of NKA which probably plays a crucial role in aldosterone-responsive tissues responsible for the maintenance of body Na+ and K+ homeostasis.
