Oxidative inhibition of the vascular Na+-K+ pump via NADPH oxidase-dependent β1-subunit glutathionylation: implications for angiotensin II-induced vascular dysfunction. Free Radic Biol Med 2013; 65:563-572. [PMID: 23816524 PMCID: PMC4474148 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2013.06.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2013] [Revised: 06/21/2013] [Accepted: 06/21/2013] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Glutathionylation of the Na(+)-K(+) pump's β1-subunit is a key molecular mechanism of physiological and pathophysiological pump inhibition in cardiac myocytes. Its contribution to Na(+)-K(+) pump regulation in other tissues is unknown, and cannot be assumed given the dependence on specific β-subunit isoform expression and receptor-coupled pathways. As Na(+)-K(+) pump activity is an important determinant of vascular tone through effects on [Ca(2+)]i, we have examined the role of oxidative regulation of the Na(+)-K(+) pump in mediating angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced increases in vascular reactivity. β1-subunit glutathione adducts were present at baseline and increased by exposure to Ang II in rabbit aortic rings, primary rabbit aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and human arterial segments. In VSMCs, Ang II-induced glutathionylation was associated with marked reduction in Na(+)-K(+)ATPase activity, an effect that was abolished by the NADPH oxidase inhibitory peptide, tat-gp91ds. In aortic segments, Ang II-induced glutathionylation was associated with decreased K(+)-induced vasorelaxation, a validated index of pump activity. Ang II-induced oxidative inhibition of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase and decrease in K(+)-induced relaxation were reversed by preincubation of VSMCs and rings with recombinant FXYD3 protein that is known to facilitate deglutathionylation of β1-subunit. Knock-out of FXYD1 dramatically decreased K(+)-induced relaxation in a mouse model. Attenuation of Ang II signaling in vivo by captopril (8 mg/kg/day for 7 days) decreased superoxide-sensitive DHE levels in the media of rabbit aorta, decreased β1-subunit glutathionylation, and enhanced K(+)-induced vasorelaxation. Ang II inhibits the Na(+)-K(+) pump in VSMCs via NADPH oxidase-dependent glutathionylation of the pump's β1-subunit, and this newly identified signaling pathway may contribute to altered vascular tone. FXYD proteins reduce oxidative inhibition of the Na(+)-K(+) pump and may have an important protective role in the vasculature under conditions of oxidative stress.

Abstract
As the only quantitatively significant Na efflux pathway from cardiac cells, the Na/K ATPase (Na pump) is the primary regulator of intracellular Na. The transmembrane Na gradient it establishes is essential for normal electrical excitability, numerous coupled-transport processes and, as the driving force for Na/Ca exchange, thus setting cardiac Ca load and contractility. As Na influx varies with electrical excitation, heart rate and pathology, the dynamic regulation of Na efflux is essential. It is now widely recognized that phospholemman, a 72 amino acid accessory protein which forms part of the Na pump complex, is the key nexus linking cellular signaling to pump regulation. Phospholemman is the target of a variety of post-translational modifications (including phosphorylation, palmitoylation and glutathionation) and these can dynamically alter the activity of the Na pump. This review summarizes our current understanding of the multiple regulatory mechanisms that converge on phospholemman and govern NA pump activity in the heart. The corrected Fig. 4 is reproduced below. The publisher would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused. [corrected].

Nitric oxide regulates cardiac intracellular Na⁺ and Ca²⁺ by modulating Na/K ATPase via PKCε and phospholemman-dependent mechanism. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2013; 61:164-71. [PMID: 23612119 PMCID: PMC3981027 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2013.04.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2012] [Revised: 04/11/2013] [Accepted: 04/12/2013] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
In the heart, Na/K-ATPase regulates intracellular Na+ and Ca2 + (via NCX), thereby preventing Na+ and Ca2 + overload and arrhythmias. Here, we test the hypothesis that nitric oxide (NO) regulates cardiac intracellular Na+ and Ca2 + and investigate mechanisms and physiological consequences involved. Effects of both exogenous NO (via NO-donors) and endogenously synthesized NO (via field-stimulation of ventricular myocytes) were assessed in this study. Field stimulation of rat ventricular myocytes significantly increased endogenous NO (18 ± 2 μM), PKCε activation (82 ± 12%), phospholemman phosphorylation (at Ser-63 and Ser-68) and Na/K-ATPase activity (measured by DAF-FM dye, western-blotting and biochemical assay, respectively; p < 0.05, n = 6) and all were abolished by Ca2 +-chelation (EGTA 10 mM) or NOS inhibition l-NAME (1 mM). Exogenously added NO (spermine-NONO-ate) stimulated Na/K-ATPase (EC50 = 3.8 μM; n = 6/grp), via decrease in Km, in PLMWT but not PLMKO or PLM3SA myocytes (where phospholemman cannot be phosphorylated) as measured by whole-cell perforated-patch clamp. Field-stimulation with l-NAME or PKC-inhibitor (2 μM Bis) resulted in elevated intracellular Na+ (22 ± 1.5 and 24 ± 2 respectively, vs. 14 ± 0.6 mM in controls) in SBFI-AM-loaded rat myocytes. Arrhythmia incidence was significantly increased in rat hearts paced in the presence of l-NAME (and this was reversed by l-arginine), as well as in PLM3SA mouse hearts but not PLMWT and PLMKO. We provide physiological and biochemical evidence for a novel regulatory pathway whereby NO activates Na/K-ATPase via phospholemman phosphorylation and thereby limits Na+ and Ca2 + overload and arrhythmias. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled “Na+ Regulation in Cardiac Myocytes”. We tested whether nitric oxide regulates intracellular Na+ and Ca2 + in the heart. Nitric oxide increased Na/K ATPase activity via PKCε-induced phospholemman phosphorylation. Inhibiting nitric oxide pathway resulted in Na+ and Ca2 + overload and contributed to arrhythmia development in the heart.

The Rho-A/Rho-kinase pathway is up-regulated but remains inhibited by cyclic guanosine monophosphate-dependent mechanisms during endotoxemia in small mesenteric arteries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated whether a reduced activity in the Rho-A/Rho-kinase pathway could be involved in the impaired vascular reactivity observed in septic shock. DESIGN Ex vivo animal study. SETTING University research laboratory. SUBJECTS Male Wistar rats. INTERVENTIONS Rats received an intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 10 mg/kg) either 6 or 24 hours before the onset of our experiments. The effects of Y-27632 (a Rho-kinase inhibitor) were assessed in first-order mesenteric rings taken from these animals using wire myograph. The expression of Rho-A, Rho-kinases I and II, and the total and phosphorylated myosin phosphatase targeting subunit 1 (MYPT1) were assessed by Western blotting. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The EC50 to Y-27632 was reduced from 2.10 microM (1.22-3.66 microM) (control) to 0.21 microM (0.09-0.44 microM), and 9.54 (0.82-110.30) nM in LPS-treated groups 6 and 24 hours, respectively. The increased potency of Y-27632 was partially reversed by endothelium removal at both 6 and 24 hours. Incubation of Nomega-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride or 1400W (a nonselective and an inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, respectively) normalized the responses to Y-27632 seen 6 hours after LPS. However, 1400W had no effect, whereas Nomega-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride caused a partial reduction in the enhanced potency of Y-27632 found 24 hours after LPS. The soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor oxadiazolo[4,3-alpha]quinoxalin-1-one was able to bring the Y-27632 response back to normal both 6 and 24 hours after LPS. Rho-A, Rho-kinase I, Rho-kinase II, and MYPT1 were increased in mesenteric arteries from endotoxemic rats, but the phosphorylated MYPT1 was significantly reduced. However, incubation with oxadiazolo[4,3-alpha]quinoxalin-1-one circumvented the inhibition of MYPT1 phosphorylation found in preparations from LPS-treated animals. CONCLUSIONS Our findings revealed an impaired Rho-A/Rho-kinase-mediated phosphorylation of MYPT1 in vessels from endotoxemic animals in a cyclic guanosine monophosphate-dependent manner, suggesting that changes in mechanisms involved in calcium sensitization play a pivotal role in cardiovascular changes observed in septic shock.

Abstract
Phospholemman (PLM) is a member of the FXYD ('fix-it') family of proteins many of which have now been identified as tissue-specific regulators of the Na/K ATPase. PLM (FXYD1) is the primary sarcolemmal substrate for PKC and PKA in the heart. We have recently identified PLM as a novel accessory protein that forms part of the cardiac Na/K ATPase pump complex. PLM regulates Na/K pump activity in a way analogous to the regulation of SERCA by phospholamban-that is un-phosphorylated PLM exerts a tonic inhibition on the Na/K pump, while phosphorylated PLM relieves this inhibition and stimulates pump activity. This process is likely to be fundamentally important in the normal physiological regulation of the cell particularly at high heart rates and, as briefly reviewed in this article, is also likely to offer novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of diseases such as cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.

Abstract
The effects of ouabain were studied on the contraction stimulated with phenylephrine or KCl in intact endothelium and denuded aortic rings isolated from normotensive (2K) and renal hypertensive 2 kidney-1clip (2K-1C) rats. Ouabain did not change the basal tone of aortic rings. Ouabain (1 nmol/l) had no effect on the contraction to phenylephrine in all the artery groups studied. Ouabain (10 nmol/l) decreased the E(max) to phenylephrine in intact endothelium arteries from 2K-1C. By contrast, ouabain (10 nmol/l) had no effect on the contraction to KCl. Ouabain induced membrane depolarization measured by confocal image with Di-4-ANEPPS dye, that was greater in 2K than in 2K-1C rat aorta smooth muscle cells. In conclusion, ouabain (10 nmol/l) decreased the contractile responses to phenylephrine only in 2K-1C rat aortic rings with intact endothelium. Interestingly, 10 nmol/l ouabain depolarizes the smooth muscle cells but this depolarization level is not enough to alter the phenylephrine or KCl-induced contractions. Our results indicate that the endothelium modulates the vascular action of ouabain.

Abstract
We examined pharmacologically the influence of nitric oxide (NO), guanosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP), adenine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP), and protein kinase C-linked signaling pathways on relaxation to potassium in aortic segments isolated from rats treated for 6 h with bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide). Endotoxemia for 6 h was associated with a severe hypotension and vascular hyporeactivity to norepinephrine (NE), and an increase in plasma NO in vivo and aortic NO ex vivo. The NE-induced contraction was attenuated and the potassium-induced relaxation was accentuated in the aorta of rats with endotoxic shock. Ouabain inhibited the potassium-induced relaxation in aortae from normal and endotoxemic rats. 8-Bromo-cyclic GMP significantly enhanced the potassium-induced relaxation in control aortae, whereas 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) abolished this difference between normal and endotoxemic rats. In contrast, inhibition of potassium-induced relaxation was observed in aortae from normal and endotoxemic rats treated with 8-bromo-cyclic AMP or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. Individually, inhibitors of protein kinase A or protein kinase C did not significantly alter relaxation to potassium; however, in combination, these inhibitors significantly potentiated relaxation in aortae from control rats. These results suggest that activity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is enhanced in the vascular bed of animals with endotoxic shock and that this elevation in activity is mediated by NO-cyclic GMP, but not by cyclic AMP-protein kinase A or protein kinase C.

Abstract
1 Smooth muscle membrane potential and tension measurements were made in isolated mesenteric resistance arteries from rats exposed to bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS; 10 mg kg(-1), i.p.) for 3 h to mimic septic shock syndrome. 2 Over this period, rats developed an endotoxaemic response, assessed in vivo as a 41+/-4 mmHg drop in mean blood pressure, vascular hyporeactivity to noradrenaline (1 microg kg(-1), i.v.) and a significant increase in core body temperature. 3 In mesenteric small resistance arteries from these rats (o.d. 180 - 240 microm), phenylephrine (0.01-3 microm)-evoked contraction was not altered when compared with arteries from sham-operated animals, but the concentration-relaxation curve to acetylcholine (ACh; 0.01 - 3 microm) displayed a small, but significant, shift to the right. 4 The smooth muscle resting membrane potential (-70.3+/-1.6 mV) in arteries from LPS-treated rats was significantly greater than in control arteries (-55.4+/-1.2 mV), but in both cases the smooth muscle was depolarized to a similar potential by the application of N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 0.3 mm; -54.1+/-2.3 vs -52.4+/-2.5 mV) or glibenclamide (10 microm; -55.0+/-2.1 vs -50.4+/-2.0 mV). 5 ACh (1 microm) elicited a maximal hyperpolarization, which ranged from -14.7+/-3.2 mV (in arteries from LPS-treated rats) to -20.6+/-2.4 mV (in arteries from sham-operated rats), and was not altered by the presence of L-NAME. Levcromakalim (1 microm) increased the smooth muscle membrane potential by around -24 mV in arteries from both sets of experimental animals. 6 These results indicate that at the level of the resistance vasculature, endotoxaemia is associated with pronounced smooth muscle hyperpolarization reflecting the action of NO on KATP channels. These changes were not associated with vascular hyporeactivity or depressed endothelial cell function in vitro, suggesting that mesenteric resistance arteries may not contribute to equivalent changes in vivo.
