Abstract
Mineralocorticoid hormones are a subset of steroid hormones that act primarily in epithelial tissues to regulate ion transport of Na+, K+ and H+. Cellular specificity is conferred by receptors which act in the nucleus to stimulate gene expression. Transcription and subsequent translation result in the production of new proteins which mediate the physiologic effects. The mechanisms involved in receptor specificity and localization, in regulation of gene activation, and in expression of transport effects are reviewed. The cellular actions of mineralocorticoids fit well with the general model of steroid hormone action but considerable questions remain at each step in the process.

Abstract
The common model of aldosterone-dependent sodium transport is that the hormone increases sodium transport during the "early" and "late" response phases by inducing specific proteins (AIPs). However, in actual biochemical studies, AIPs were mostly detected 6-24 h after aldosterone application. Regarding the physiological early response phase, this implies temporal dissociation of the physiological and biochemical events. The discrepancy raises the question as to whether other biochemical events, such as protein modifications, may be involved in addition to the novo protein synthesis. Labelling of cultured renal collecting duct epithelia for 1-5 h with a radioactive methylgroup donor, S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), following tissue fractionation, resulted in progressive methylations of specific cytosolic proteins. Aldosterone-dependent methylations increased consistently with time, and accounted for a 60% increase in total cytosolic protein content as compared to controls after 5 h labelling. The different methylated proteins showed a molecular weight of 220, 97 and 75 kd and comprised groups of proteins with an isoelectric point of 5.1-5.7 and 6.0-7.5. Methylation of identical proteins was obtained by incubation of the epithelia with unlabelled SAM instead of aldosterone. SAM-induced as well as aldosterone-induced methylation of proteins with an isoelectric point of 6.0-7.5 could be inhibited by the methylation inhibitor S-adenosylhomocysteine. The results indicate that aldosterone may influence the SAM cycle in cultured collecting-duct epithelia during increase of the Na+-transport.

Abstract
In the urinary bladder of the toad Bufo marinus, the basal rate of synthesis of a number of proteins was modulated in a bidirectional way (i.e., induced or repressed) by aldosterone and by triiodothyronine (T3). Each hormone was therefore characterized by a distinct domain of response. When both hormones were added simultaneously, the two domains consistently overlapped at least for one protein, termed AIP-1, or aldosterone-induced protein 1 (Mr approximately 65 kilodaltons, pi = 6.7, as analyzed by two-dimension gel electrophoresis). The physiological role of AIP-1 is unknown, but could be related to the late mineralocorticoid response. In five experiments, T3 (60 nM, 18-hr incubation) consistently repressed AIP-1, while aldosterone-dependent sodium transport (late response) was significantly inhibited, as previously described. The repression of AIP-1 was also observed as early as 6 hr after aldosterone addition. In addition, sodium butyrate (3 mM), which was previously shown to also selectively inhibit the late mineralocorticoid response, was also able to repress AIP-1. Our results suggest that AIP-1 is one of the proteins involved in the mediation of the late mineralocorticoid response.

Abstract
Aldosterone-stimulated Na+ transport in toad urinary bladder is associated with the synthesis of a specific group of proteins whose induction appears to be related to the natriferic effect of the hormone. These aldosterone-induced proteins (AIPs) occur in two slightly different molecular weight classes (around 70 kDa), each class being composed of several proteins with discrete isoelectric points (range, 5.5-6.0). Because glycosylation is a common cause of such electrophoretic polymorphism and microheterogeneity, we examined whether these proteins are glycoproteins. Tunicamycin (a specific inhibitor of N-linked glycosylation) inhibited aldosterone-stimulated Na+ transport and AIP synthesis without affecting overall protein synthesis. The vast majority of epithelial cell proteins did not bind to the mannose-specific lectin, concanavalin A-sepharose. In contrast, both classes of AIPs bound to concanavalin A-sepharose, but the affinities of the higher and lower molecular weight proteins were markedly different: the former were readily eluted with 0.2 M alpha-methyl-D-mannoside alone, whereas the latter could only be eluted with 0.4 M alpha-methyl-D-mannoside in combination with high concentrations of NaCl (2.5-5.0 M). These studies indicate that 1) glycosylation is important in the natriferic response to aldosterone, 2) the AIPs are N-linked mannose-containing glycoproteins, and 3) the electrophoretic polymorphism of the AIPs is due, at least in part, to differences in glycosylation. Furthermore, concanavalin A-affinity chromatography provides a simple means for the partial purification of these putative "effectors" of the cellular action of aldosterone.

Abstract
Using the dry-mount autoradiographic technique, a single population of cells within the rat epididymis, the clear cells, have been shown to bind [3H]aldosterone at a nuclear site. Competitive binding experiments demonstrated that aldosterone was more potent than desoxycorticosterone than testosterone in reducing the nuclear uptake of radioactive aldosterone. Furthermore, the other epididymal cells (principal and basal cells) in all regions of the epididymis were not significantly labelled; occasional labelling was noted in some endothelial and stromal cells. It is suggested that aldosterone may play a role in controlling the intracellular and transcellular movement of ions and water necessary for concentrating absorbed macromolecules in the clear cell.

Abstract
Aldosterone-dependent changes in citrate synthase (CS) activity have been used as an index of mineralocorticoid target sites. However, adrenalectomy (ADX) resulted in a fall in activity of CS and several other enzymes in rabbit heart, a tissue with glucocorticoid-but not mineralocorticoid-specific receptors. The enzymes included CS (2.03-1.36 U/mg protein, normal----ADX, P less than 0.001), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NADP+ (1.10-0.80 U/mg, P less than 0.002), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NAD+ (0.034-0.020 U/mg, P less than 0.01), and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase (0.072 to 0.035 U/mg, P less than 0.001); in contrast, mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase levels were not significantly reduced by adrenal loss. There was also a decrease after surgery in sarcolemmal Na-K-(17.30-12.31 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.002) and Mg-ATPase activities (14.16-12.11 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.05). However, ADX did not result in a significant change in heart weight per kilogram body weight or recovery of mitochondrial protein per gram heart. CS was also assayed in hearts from ADX animals following acute (90 min) and chronic (3 day) steroid replacement. Although neither acute intravenous aldosterone (10 micrograms/kg) nor dexamethasone (100 micrograms/kg) increased activity, exposure to multiple subcutaneous injections of either steroid over a 3-day period significantly elevated CS above ADX values. The coordinate changes in the levels of several myocardial enzymes associated with energy metabolism is discussed in terms of an adaptation to chronic alterations in energy demands as opposed to specific mineralocorticoid or glucocorticoid receptor-mediated processes.

Abstract
Aldosterone stimulates the reabsorption of sodium across epithelial cells of various target tissues. The initial events in the molecular action of the mineralocorticoid are the following: (1) Diffusion of the steroid across the cellular (baso-lateral, serosal) plasma membrane into the cytoplasmic compartment. (2) Binding of the steroid to a receptor protein specific for the class of steroid and activation of this steroid-receptor-complex. (3) Translocation of the activated aldosterone-receptor complex to the nucleus and stimulation of RNA synthesis (including the synthesis of messenger RNA and ribosomal RNA). (4) Translation of the steroid-induced messenger RNAs at the ribosomal level into the aldosterone-induced proteins (AIP) within the cytoplasmic compartment. Whereas these induction steps are uniformly accepted, the mechanisms by which the AIPs increase the activity of a rate-limiting step in the sodium transport process are still object of debate. In this paper we discuss the initial events in the mode of action of aldosterone and the biochemical and physiological approaches to the aldosterone-induced proteins with special reference to the "sodium permease", the "energy", and the "sodium pump" theory. Our analysis shows that despite serious efforts by multiple laboratories, the first AIP with an established relationship to the mineralocorticoid actions of aldosterone is yet to be identified.

Abstract
The Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line, which exhibits properties indicative of a distal tubule origin, evidently binds and responds to mineralocorticoid hormones. We investigated the effects of aldosterone and deoxycorticosterone on protein synthesis in MDCK cells grown either in medium supplemented with serum or in a hormonally defined, serum-free medium. Aldosterone induced the synthesis of at least 2 membrane proteins with molecular weights of 35000 and 14000. The MDCK line may prove a useful model system for examining the mechanism of mineralocorticoid-regulated sodium transport and, in particular, the identification and study of hormone-induced proteins in a homogeneous cell population.

Abstract
Sodium transport into rabbit kidney medullar microsomes was 50% inhibited by amiloride. This Na+ uptake was shown to represent transport when the uptake process was reserved by the ionophore nigericin. The transport was complete within 60 min and proportional to the microsomal protein concentration. The effect of amiloride on transport was specific since the similar compound sulfaguanidine failed to affect microsomal Na+ transport. Amiloride-sensitive Na+ transport into microsomes was inhibited 70% by decreasing the pH (from 7.0 to 5.9), but was unaffected by the presence of a pH gradient. The kinetics of Na+ transport could be explained by a simple model, assuming that amiloride lowered the rate of Na+ entrance into the vesicles but had not effect on the rate of efflux. The failure of amiloride to effect efflux from the vesicles was also demonstrated directly.

Abstract
The possibility that mineralocorticoids have a direct influence on renal Na-K ATPase activity has been the focus of intense research effort and some controversy for a number of years. Early studies were hindered by an inability to differentiate between possible glucocorticoid vs. mineralocorticoid effects on this enzyme within the multitude of cells that comprise the heterogeneous mammalian nephron. This study attempts to circumvent this problem by monitoring Na-K ATPase activity in the rabbit renal cortical collecting tubule (CCT), a proposed target epithelium for mineralocorticoids. Using an ultramicro assay, Na-K ATPase activity was measured in CCT from normal, adrenalectomized (adx), and adx rabbits subjected to one of several corticosteroid treatment protocols. The results indicate that Na-K ATPase activity in the CCT decreased by 86% subsequent to adrenalectomy. Injection of physiological doses of aldosterone (10 micrograms/kg) but not dexamethasone (100 micrograms/kg) restored CCT Na-K ATPase activity in adx rabbits to normal levels within 3 h after injection. An insignificant rise in activity was observed 1.5h after aldosterone treatment. In addition, spirolactone SC 26304, a specific mineralocorticoid antagonist, blocked the action of aldosterone on Na-K ATPase.. Therefore an acute increase in Na-K ATPase activity participates in the action of aldosterone on Na transport in this segment. To differentiate between primary vs. secondary activation of this enzyme, adx animals were treated with amiloride before the injection of aldosterone with the intent of blocking luminal membrane Na entry into CCT. In these animals, pretreatment with amiloride blocked the increase in CCT Na-K ATPase act activity seen with aldosterone alone at 3 h. Thus the increase in activity with aldosterone appears to be a secondary adaptation that is dependent on an aldosterone-enhanced increase in the passive entry of Na across the luminal membrane. The subcellular mechanism by which Na modulates Na-K ATPase activity remains obscure.

Abstract
The stimulation of sodium transport by aldosterone in target tissues requires the synthesis of both mRNA and proteins. Aldosterone-induced mRNA and proteins have been demonstrated in toad urinary bladder and rat kidney. We have isolated total RNA and poly(A)-containing RNA from hormone-treated and untreated toad bladder mucosal cells for translation in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate system. Aldosterone-induced proteins synthesized in this system have physical properties similar to those of aldosterone-induced proteins synthesized in the intact toad bladder.

Abstract
Paired toad urinary hemibladders were incubated with [35S]methionine in the presence (experimental) or absence (control) of aldosterone. Short-circuit current was used to monitor aldosterone-induced Na+ transport. Protein synthesis in epithelial cell subcellular fractions (cytosolic, microsomal, mitochondrial) was evaluated by gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Aldosterone-induced proteins were identified in the cytosolic and microsomal fractions (70 000 and 15 000 daltons, respectively). These results represent the first demonstration of aldosterone-induced proteins in subcellular fractions of epithelial cells derived from single toad urinary hemibladders.

Abstract
The effect of oxytetracycline and demethylchlortetracycline on aldosterone- and insulin-mediated Na+ transport (short-circuit current) were examined in toad urinary bladders mounted in modified Ussing chambers. Oxytetracycline had little or no effect on either basal or aldosterone-mediated Na+ transport. In contrast, demethylchlortetracycline markedly inhibited both basal and aldosterone-mediated Na+ transport. Furthermore, demethylchlortetracycline inhibited the aldosterone response significantly out of proportion to its effects on basal Na+ transport. Neither of the drugs had an effect on insulin-mediated Na+ transport. Consequently, the natriuresis observed in certain patients treated with demethylchlortetracyline may be related to drug-induced renal resistance to the effects of aldosterone.

Abstract
Binding of aldosterone to cytoplasmic and nuclear sites in urinary bladder epithelia of Bufo marinus (Dominican variant) is saturable and dependent upon steroid concentration. Scatchard analysis of specific cytoplasmic binding yielded a maximal binding capacity (N) of 14.5 X 10(-14) mol/mg protein and an apparent equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of 1.4 X 10(-8) M. Since Scatchard analysis of specific nuclear binding was complex, this binding was resolved by a computer-generated cirve-fitting technique which analyzed total aldosterone bound. Nuclear binding was resolved into three sites: a nonsaturable site that was linearly dependent upon aldosterone concentration, and two saturable sites (types I and II). Type I sites had relatively low capacity for aldosterone (N = 31 +/- 1 X 10(-14) mol/mg DNA) and high affinity (Kd = 2.5 +/- 0.5 X 10(-9 M); tffininty (Kd = 8.6 +/- 1.7 X 10(-7) M). Competition for [3H]aldosterone binding by dexamethasone, corticosterone, cortisol, progesterone, testosterone, and 17 beta-estradiol demonstrated that type I nuclear sites have higher affinity for aldosterone than for other steroids. The findings are consistent with the inference that the type I site is the mineralocorticoid receptor.

Abstract
The possible induction of renal citrate synthase (E.C. 4.1.3.7) by aldosterone was evaluated in the adrenalectomized rat. Three hours after administration of aldosterone (0.8 microgram/100 g body wt), renal cortical and medullary citrate synthase activity was significantly increased as reported previously by Kinne and Kirsten (Kinne, R., Kirsten, R. 1968. Pfleugers Arch. 300:244). In contrast, no change in this activity was detected in the renal papilla or the liver, under the same conditions. Kinetic analysis revealed that injection of aldosterone had no effect on the KmS for acetyl-CoA and oxalacetate but augmented Vmax of renal medullary citrate synthase activity by 40%. The aldosterone-dependent increase in medullary citrate synthase activity was proportionate to the associated increase in the quantity of antiserum (specific for citrate synthase) required for half-maximal immuno-precipitation. The possibility that aldosterone induced the synthesis of citrate synthase was evaluated in two sets of experiments. In the first set, adrenalectomized rats were injected intraperitoneally with either aldosterone (0.8 microgram/100 g body wt) or the diluent, and simultaneously with 3H or 35S methionine (500 muCi/rat). The isotopes were reversed in about half of the experiments. Three hours after the injection, renal citrate synthase was isolated by ATP-sepharose column chromatography and immuno-precipitation with the specific antiserum. Aldosterone augmented methionine incorporation into renal citrate synthase by 55% but had no effect on incorporation into the hepatic enzyme. In the second set, adrenalectomized rats were injected with either aldosterone (0.8 microcram/100 g body wt) or the diluent, the kidneys were removed 1 hr later and medullary slices were incubated in either 3H- or 35S-methionine at 20 degrees for 2 hr. Mitochondrial citrate synthase was isolated either by ATP-sepharose column chromatography and immuno-precipitation, or by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Aldosterone increased methionine incorporation into the immuno-precipitates by 30% and into the enzyme peak resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis by 43%. The latter increase was eliminated by prior administration of either actinomycin D (70--80 microgram/100 g body wt) or spirolactone (SC-26304) (80 microgram/100 g body wt). An equimolar dose of dexamethasone (0.8 microgram/100 g body wt) had no effect on the isotope ratio associated with citrate synthase activity in the polyacrylamide gels.
