Abstract
The Na+-Cl- cotransporter (NCC; SLC12A3) is a highly regulated integral membrane protein that is known to exist as three splice variants in primates. Its primary role in the kidney is to mediate the cosymport of Na+ and Cl- across the apical membrane of the distal convoluted tubule. Through this role and the involvement of other ion transport systems, NCC allows the systemic circulation to reclaim a fraction of the ultrafiltered Na+, K+, Cl-, and Mg+ loads in exchange for Ca2+ and [Formula: see text]. The physiological relevance of the Na+-Cl- cotransport mechanism in humans is illustrated by several abnormalities that result from NCC inactivation through the administration of thiazides or in the setting of hereditary disorders. The purpose of the present review is to discuss the molecular mechanisms and overall roles of Na+-Cl- cotransport as the main topics of interest. On reading the narrative proposed, one will realize that the knowledge gained in regard to these themes will continue to progress unrelentingly no matter how refined it has now become.

Abstract
In the kidney, a set of proteins expressed in the epithelial cells of the thick ascending loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule directly or indirectly play important roles in the regulation of serum magnesium levels. Magnesium reabsorption in the thick ascending loop of Henle occurs through a passive paracellular pathway, while in the distal convoluted tubule, the final magnesium concentration is established through an active transcellular pathway. The players involved in magnesium reabsorption include proteins with diverse functions including tight junction proteins, cation and anion channels, sodium chloride cotransporter, calcium-sensing receptor, epidermal growth factor, cyclin M2, sodium potassium adenosine triphosphatase subunits, transcription factors, a serine protease, and proteins involved in mitochondrial function. Mutations in the genes that encode these proteins impair their function and cause different rare diseases associated with hypomagnesemia, which may lead to muscle cramps, fatigue, epileptic seizures, intellectual disability, cardiac arrhythmias, and chronic kidney disease. The purpose of this review is to describe the clinical and genetic characteristics of these hereditary kidney diseases and the current research findings on the pathophysiological basis of these diseases.

Abstract
In this work we developed an integrated microfluidic system for automatically detecting the ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) biomarker FXYD2. Dealing with ascites from ovarian cancer patients, capture of cancer cells, isolation of messenger RNA, and quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction were integrated into a single microfluidic chip and carried out on-chip automatically. OCCC is a subtype of ovarian cancer with a high mortality risk, and a high FXYD2 gene expression level was shown to be closely associated with OCCC. The lowest limit of quantification using a benchtop protocol of this system could be as low as 100 copies per sample. By normalizing the expression to a housekeeping gene, GAPDH, a simple cycle threshold ratio index could distinguish high FXYD2 expression cells from the low-expression ones. This developed platform may therefore facilitate future OCCC diagnosis and/or prognosis.

Abstract
There are presently no reliable ways to quantify human pancreatic beta cell mass (BCM) in vivo, which prevents an accurate understanding of the progressive beta cell loss in diabetes or following islet transplantation. Furthermore, the lack of beta cell imaging hampers the evaluation of the impact of new drugs aiming to prevent beta cell loss or to restore BCM in diabetes. We presently discuss the potential value of BCM determination as a cornerstone for individualized therapies in diabetes, describe the presently available probes for human BCM evaluation, and discuss our approach for the discovery of novel beta cell biomarkers, based on the determination of specific splice variants present in human beta cells. This has already led to the identification of DPP6 and FXYD2ga as two promising targets for human BCM imaging, and is followed by a discussion of potential safety issues, the role for radiochemistry in the improvement of BCM imaging, and concludes with an overview of the different steps from pre-clinical validation to a first-in-man trial for novel tracers.

Abstract
Digitalis drugs are selective inhibitors of the plasma membrane Na+/K+-ATPase. There are many studies on molecular mechanisms of digitalis interaction with purified pig kidney enzyme, with the tacit assumption that it is a good model of human kidney enzyme. However, previous studies on crude or recombinant human kidney enzymes are limited, and have not resulted in consistent findings on their digitalis sensitivities. Hence, we prepared comparably purified enzymes from human and pig kidneys and determined inhibitory constants of digoxin, ouabain, ouabagenin, bufalin, and marinobufagenin (MBG) on enzyme activity under optimal turnover conditions. We found that each compound had the same potency against the two enzymes, indicating that (i) the pig enzyme is an appropriate model of the human enzyme, and (ii) prior discrepant findings on human kidney enzymes were either due to structural differences between the natural and recombinant enzymes or because potencies were determined using binding constants of digitalis for enzymes under nonphysiological conditions. In conjunction with previous findings, our newly determined inhibitory constants of digitalis compounds for human kidney enzymes indicate that (i) of the compounds that have long been advocated to be endogenous hormones, only bufalin and MBG may act as such at kidney tubules, and (ii) beneficial effects of digoxin, the only digitalis with extensive clinical use, does not involve its inhibitory effect on renal tubular Na+/K+-ATPase.

Abstract
Background Magnesium (Mg2+), the second most abundant cation in the cell, is woven into a multitude of cellular functions. Dysmagnesemia is associated with multiple diseases and, when severe, can be life-threatening. Summary This review discusses Mg2+ homeostasis and function with specific focus on renal Mg2+ handling. Intrarenal channels and transporters related to Mg2+ absorption are discussed. Unraveling the rare genetic diseases with manifestations of dysmagnesemia has greatly increased our understanding of the complex and intricate regulatory network in the kidney, specifically, functions of tight junction proteins including claudin-14, -16, -19, and -10; apical ion channels including: TRPM6, Kv1.1, and ROMK; small regulatory proteins including AC3 and ANK3; and basolateral proteins including EGF receptor, γ-subunit (FXYD2) of Na-K-ATPase, Kir4.1, CaSR, CNNM2, and SLC41A. Although our understanding of Mg2+ handling of the kidney has expanded considerably in the last two decades, many questions remain. Future studies are needed to elucidate a multitude of unknown aspects of Mg2+ handling in the kidney. Key Message Understanding rare and genetic diseases of Mg2+ dysregulation has expanded our knowledge and furthers the development of strategies for preventing and managing dysmagnesemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Magnesium (Mg(2+)) is an essential ion for cell growth, neuroplasticity and muscle contraction. Blood Mg(2+) levels <0.7 mmol/L may cause a heterogeneous clinical phenotype, including muscle cramps and epilepsy and disturbances in K(+) and Ca(2+) homeostasis. Over the last decade, the genetic origin of several familial forms of hypomagnesaemia has been found. In 2000, mutations in FXYD2, encoding the γ-subunit of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, were identified to cause isolated dominant hypomagnesaemia (IDH) in a large Dutch family suffering from hypomagnesaemia, hypocalciuria and chondrocalcinosis. However, no additional patients have been identified since then. METHODS Here, two families with hypomagnesaemia and hypocalciuria were screened for mutations in the FXYD2 gene. Moreover, the patients were clinically and genetically characterized. RESULTS We report a p.Gly41Arg FXYD2 mutation in two families with hypomagnesaemia and hypocalciuria. Interestingly, this is the same mutation as was described in the original study. As in the initial family, several patients suffered from muscle cramps, chondrocalcinosis and epilepsy. Haplotype analysis revealed an overlapping haplotype in all families, suggesting a founder effect. CONCLUSIONS The recurrent p.Gly41Arg FXYD2 mutation in two new families with IDH confirms that FXYD2 mutation causes hypomagnesaemia. Until now, no other FXYD2 mutations have been reported which could indicate that other FXYD2 mutations will not cause hypomagnesaemia or are embryonically lethal.

Abstract
Na⁺, K⁺-ATPase (NKA) is required to generate the resting membrane potential in neurons. Nociceptive afferent neurons express not only the α and β subunits of NKA but also the γ subunit FXYD2. However, the neural function of FXYD2 is unknown. The present study shows that FXYD2 in nociceptive neurons is necessary for maintaining the mechanical allodynia induced by peripheral inflammation. FXYD2 interacted with α1NKA and negatively regulated the NKA activity, depolarizing the membrane potential of nociceptive neurons. Mechanical allodynia initiated in FXYD2-deficient mice was abolished 4 days after inflammation, whereas it persisted for at least 3 weeks in wild-type mice. Importantly, the FXYD2/α1NKA interaction gradually increased after inflammation and peaked on day 4 post inflammation, resulting in reduction of NKA activity, depolarization of neuron membrane and facilitation of excitatory afferent neurotransmission. Thus, the increased FXYD2 activity may be a fundamental mechanism underlying the persistent hypersensitivity to pain induced by inflammation.

Abstract
Although magnesium is involved in a wide spectrum of vital functions in normal human physiology, the significance of hypomagnesemia and necessity for its treatment are under-recognized and underappreciated in clinical practice. In the current review, we first present an overview of the clinical significance of hypomagnesemia and normal magnesium metabolism, with a focus on renal magnesium handling. Subsequently, we review the literature for both congenital and acquired hypomagnesemic conditions that affect the various steps in normal magnesium metabolism. Finally, we present an approach to the routine evaluation and suggested management of hypomagnesemia.

Abstract
By interacting with Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA), the FXYD domain-containing ion transport regulator (FXYD) is involved in teleost osmoregulation, but knowledge of FXYD in marine fish is limited. In the present study, fxyd11 and fxyd12 were identified from the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus), and the two members of the FXYD protein family were expressed in a tissue-specific manner. Fxyd11 mRNA was predominantly expressed in gills, whereas fxyd12 mRNA was mainly distributed in kidneys and intestines. Acute hyposaline stress altered the activity of NKA and the expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 in gills, kidneys, and intestines. Branchial fxyd11 mRNA expression remained at a low level during freshwater acclimation, whereas NKA activity increased, showing a negative correlation that differed from previous reports. Similarly, renal expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 mRNA was negatively correlated with NKA activity. Unlike in gills and kidneys, intestinal NKA activity and mRNA expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 were comparably suppressed. Taken together, the salinity-dependent expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12, and correlation with NKA activity suggested that both fxyd11 and fxyd12 were involved in the response to acute hyposaline challenge in the spotted scat.

Abstract
Astrocytic glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-I) is critical to control the bulk of glutamate uptake and, thus, to regulate synaptic plasticity and excitotoxicity. GLT-I glutamate uptake is driven by the sodium gradient implemented by Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases (NKAs) and the α2 subunit of NKA (NKA-α2) is actually linked to GLT-I to regulate astrocytic glutamate transport. We recently found that adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs), which control synaptic plasticity and neurodegeneration, regulate glutamate uptake through unknown mechanisms. Here we report that A2AR activation decreases NKA activity selectively in astrocytes to inhibit glutamate uptake. Furthermore, we found a physical association of A2ARs with NKA-α2s in astrocytes, as gauged by coimmunoprecipitation and in situ proximity ligation assays, in the cerebral cortex and striatum, two brain regions where A2ARs inhibit the astrocytic glutamate uptake. Moreover, the selective deletion of A2ARs in astrocytes (using Gfa2-A2AR-KO mice) leads to a concurrent increase of both astrocytic glutamate uptake and NKA-α2 levels and activity in the striatum and cortex. This coupling of astrocytic A2ARs to the regulation of glutamate transport through modulation of NKA-α2 activity provides a novel mechanism linking neuronal activity to ion homeostasis controlling glutamatergic activity, all of which are processes intricately associated with the etiology of several brain diseases.

Abstract
Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a form of renal cancer that may be confused with other eosinophilic renal tumors, including oncocytoma, type 2 papillary RCC, and clear-cell RCC with eosinophilic features. There are currently no robust markers to distinguish these neoplasms. Chromophobe RCC and renal oncocytoma are presumably derived from the distal nephron. FXYD2 is a distal tubule regulator of the trimeric Na(+/)K(+)-transporting ATPase that is enriched in kidney tissue. In this study, we investigated the expression of FXYD2 in normal human kidney, 27 chromophobe RCCs, 30 oncocytomas, 15 clear-cell RCCs, and 11 papillary RCCs. Immunohistochemical staining for FXYD2 showed diffuse, strong immunoreactivity in the basolateral membrane of distal tubules of normal human kidney. Ninety-six percent (26/27) of chromophobe RCCs were immunoreactive for FXYD2 in a distinctly membranous pattern. Twenty-five of these tumors showed at least focal 2+ staining. In contrast, only 17% (5/30) of renal oncocytomas, 11% (2/15) of clear-cell RCCs, and 0% (0/11) of papillary RCCs displayed FXYD2 immunoreactivity. None of these cases showed ≥2+ FXYD2 staining. A subset of cases was confirmed as oncocytoma or chromophobe RCC using cytokeratin 7, colloidal iron, and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of chromosomes 1, 2, 6, 10, and 17. Among this subset, 100% (7/7) of chromophobe RCCs were FXYD2 positive, whereas 17% (2/12) of oncocytomas were stained with FXYD2. The oncocytomas that stained with FXYD2 did so in a weak (1+), patchy manner. In contrast, chromophobe RCCs showed ≥2+ staining in 86% (6/7) of these tumors. For comparison, this subset was also stained for kidney-specific cadherin (Ksp-cadherin). Ksp-cadherin showed positive staining in 100% (7/7) of chromophobe RCCs and 33% (4/12) of oncocytomas. This is the first report demonstrating the potential utility of FXYD2 immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis of chromophobe RCC.

Abstract
The Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, or sodium pump, is well known for its role in ion transport across the plasma membrane of animal cells. It carries out the transport of Na(+) ions out of the cell and of K(+) ions into the cell and thus maintains electrolyte and fluid balance. In addition to the fundamental ion-pumping function of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, recent work has suggested additional roles for Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in signal transduction and biomembrane structure. Several signaling pathways have been found to involve Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, which serves as a docking station for a fast-growing number of protein interaction partners. In this review, we focus on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase as a signal transducer, but also briefly discuss other Na(+),K(+)-ATPase protein-protein interactions, providing a comprehensive overview of the diverse signaling functions ascribed to this well-known enzyme.

Abstract
Thanks to the homeostasis of the internal milieu, metazoan cells can enormously simplify their housekeeping efforts and engage instead in differentiation and multiple forms of organization (tissues, organs, systems) that enable them to produce an astonishing diversity of mammals. The stability of the internal milieu despite drastic variations of the external environment (air, fresh or seawater, gastrointestinal fluids, glomerular filtrate, bile) is due to transporting epithelia that can adjust their specific permeability to H(2)O, H(+), Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), and Cl(-) over several orders of magnitude and exchange substances with the outer milieu with exquisite precision. This exchange is due to the polarized expression of membrane proteins, among them Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, an oligomeric enzyme that uses chemical energy from ATP molecules to translocate ions across the plasma membrane of epithelial cells. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase presents two types of asymmetries: the arrangement of its subunits, and its expression in one pole of the epithelial cell ("polarity"). In most epithelia, polarity consists of the expression of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase towards the intercellular space and arises in part from the interaction of the extracellular segment of the β-subunit with another β-subunit present in a Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase molecule expressed by a neighboring cell. In addition to enabling the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase to transport ions and water vectorially, this position exposes its receptors to ouabain and analogous cardiotonic steroids, which are present in the internal milieu because these were secreted by endocrine cells.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase is the membrane "pump" that generates the Na(+) and K(+) gradients across the plasma membrane that drives many physiological processes. This enzyme is highly sensitive to inhibition by cardiotonic steroids, most notably the digitalis/ouabain class of compounds, which have been used for centuries to treat congestive heart failure and arrhythmias. The amino acids that constitute the ouabain-binding site are highly conserved across the evolutionary spectrum. This could be fortuitous or could result from this site being conserved because it has an important biological function. New physiological approaches using genetically engineered mice are being used to define the biological significance of the "receptor function" of the Na,K-ATPase and its regulation by potential endogenous cardiotonic steroid-like compounds. These studies extend the reach of earlier studies involving the biochemical purification of endogenous regulatory ligands.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebrospinal fluid sodium concentration ([Na(+)](csf)) increases during migraine, but the cause of the increase is not known. OBJECTIVE Analyze biochemical pathways that influence [Na(+)](csf) to identify mechanisms that are consistent with migraine. METHOD We reviewed sodium physiology and biochemistry publications for links to migraine and pain. RESULTS Increased capillary endothelial cell (CEC) Na(+), K(+), -ATPase transporter (NKAT) activity is probably the primary cause of increased [Na(+)](csf). Physiological fluctuations of all NKAT regulators in blood, many known to be involved in migraine, are monitored by receptors on the luminal wall of brain CECs; signals are then transduced to their abluminal NKATs that alter brain extracellular sodium ([Na(+)](e)) and potassium ([K(+)](e)). CONCLUSIONS We propose a theoretical mechanism for aura and migraine when NKAT activity shifts outside normal limits: (1) CEC NKAT activity below a lower limit increases [K(+)](e), facilitates cortical spreading depression, and causes aura; (2) CEC NKAT activity above an upper limit elevates [Na(+)](e), increases neuronal excitability, and causes migraine; (3) migraine-without-aura may arise from CEC NKAT over-activity without requiring a prior decrease in activity and its consequent spreading depression; (4) migraine triggers disturb, and treatments improve, CEC NKAT homeostasis; (5) CEC NKAT-induced regulation of neural and vasomotor excitability coordinates vascular and neuronal activities, and includes occasional pathology from CEC NKAT-induced apoptosis or cerebral infarction.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Na,K-ATPase is an oligomeric protein composed of alpha subunits, beta subunits and FXYD proteins. The catalytic alpha subunit hydrolyzes ATP and transports the cations. Increasing experimental evidence suggest that beta subunits and FXYD proteins essentially contribute to the variable physiological needs of Na,K-ATPase function in different tissues. RECENT FINDINGS Beta subunits have a crucial role in the structural and functional maturation of Na,K-ATPase and modulate its transport properties. The chaperone function of the beta subunit is essential, for example, in the formation of tight junctions and cell polarity. Recent studies suggest that beta subunits also have inherent functions, which are independent of Na,K-ATPase activity and which may be involved in cell-cell adhesiveness and in suppression of cell motility. As for FXYD proteins, they modulate Na,K-ATPase activity in a tissue-specific way, in some cases in close cooperation with posttranslational modifications such as phosphorylation. SUMMARY A better understanding of the multiple functional roles of the accessory subunits of Na,K-ATPase is crucial to appraise their influence on physiological processes and their implication in pathophysiological states.

Abstract
It is increasingly clear that alterations in Na+-K+-ATPase kinetics to fit the demands in specialized cell types is vital for the enzyme to execute its different physiological roles in diverse tissues. In addition to tissue-dependent expression of isoforms of the conventional subunits, alpha and beta, auxiliary FXYD proteins appear to be essential regulatory components. The present study identified genes belonging to this family in Atlantic salmon by analysis of expressed sequence tags. Based on the conserved domain of these small membrane proteins, eight expressed FXYD isoforms were identified. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that six isoforms are homologues to the previously identified FXYD2, FXYD5, FXYD6, FXYD7, FXYD8, and FXYD9, while two additional isoforms were found (FXYD11 and FXYD12). Using quantitative PCR, tissue-dependent expression of the different isoforms was analyzed in gill, kidney, intestine, heart, muscle, brain, and liver. Two isoforms were expressed in several tissues (FXYD5 and FXYD9), while six isoforms were distributed in a discrete manner. In excitable tissues, two isoforms were highly expressed in brain (FXYD6 and FXYD7) and one in skeletal muscle (FXYD8). In osmoregulatory tissues, one isoform was expressed predominantly in gill (FXYD11), one in kidney (FXYD2), and one equally in kidney and intestine (FXYD12). Expression of several FXYD genes in kidney and gill differed between fresh water and seawater salmon, suggesting significance during osmoregulatory adaptations. In addition to identifying novel FXYD isoforms, these studies are the first to show the tissue dependence in their expression and modulation by salinity in any teleosts.

Abstract
Plasma membrane Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, which drives potassium into and sodium out of the cell, has important roles in numerous physiological processes. Cardiac steroids (CS), such as ouabain and bufalin, specifically interact with the pump and affect ionic homeostasis, signal transduction, and endocytosed membrane traffic. CS-like compounds are present in mammalian tissues, synthesized in the adrenal gland, and considered to be new family of steroid hormones. In this study, the mechanism of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase involvement in the regulation of endocytosis is explored. We show that the effects of various CS on changes in endosomal pH are mediated by the pump and correspond to their effects on endosomal membrane traffic. In addition, it was found that CS-induced changes in endocytosed membrane traffic were dependent on alterations in [Na(+)] and [H(+)] in the endosome. Furthermore, we show that various CS differentially regulate endosomal pH and membrane traffic. The results suggest that these differences are due to specific binding characteristics. Based on our observations, we propose that Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is a key player in the regulation of endosomal pH and endocytosed membrane traffic. Furthermore, our results raise the possibility that CS-like hormones regulate differentially intracellular membrane traffic.

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.
