ER ribosomal-binding protein 1 regulates blood pressure and potassium homeostasis by modulating intracellular renin trafficking. J Biomed Sci 2023; 30:13. [PMID: 36803854 PMCID: PMC9940419 DOI: 10.1186/s12929-023-00905-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have linked RRBP1 (ribosomal-binding protein 1) genetic variants to atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and serum lipoprotein levels. However, how RRBP1 regulates blood pressure is unknown. METHODS To identify genetic variants associated with blood pressure, we performed a genome-wide linkage analysis with regional fine mapping in the Stanford Asia-Pacific Program for Hypertension and Insulin Resistance (SAPPHIRe) cohort. We further investigated the role of the RRBP1 gene using a transgenic mouse model and a human cell model. RESULTS In the SAPPHIRe cohort, we discovered that genetic variants of the RRBP1 gene were associated with blood pressure variation, which was confirmed by other GWASs for blood pressure. Rrbp1- knockout (KO) mice had lower blood pressure and were more likely to die suddenly from severe hyperkalemia caused by phenotypically hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism than wild-type controls. The survival of Rrbp1-KO mice significantly decreased under high potassium intake due to lethal hyperkalemia-induced arrhythmia and persistent hypoaldosteronism, which could be rescued by fludrocortisone. An immunohistochemical study revealed renin accumulation in the juxtaglomerular cells of Rrbp1-KO mice. In the RRBP1-knockdown Calu-6 cells, a human renin-producing cell line, transmission electron and confocal microscopy revealed that renin was primarily retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and was unable to efficiently target the Golgi apparatus for secretion. CONCLUSIONS RRBP1 deficiency in mice caused hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism, resulting in lower blood pressure, severe hyperkalemia, and sudden cardiac death. In juxtaglomerular cells, deficiency of RRBP1 reduced renin intracellular trafficking from ER to Golgi apparatus. RRBP1 is a brand-new regulator of blood pressure and potassium homeostasis discovered in this study.

Abstract
Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) activation in the heart and vessels leads to pathological effects, such as excessive extracellular matrix accumulation, oxidative stress, and sustained inflammation. In these organs, the MR is expressed in cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and inflammatory cells. We review the accumulating experimental and clinical evidence that pharmacological MR antagonism has a positive impact on a battery of cardiac and vascular pathological states, including heart failure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmic diseases, atherosclerosis, vascular stiffness, and cardiac and vascular injury linked to metabolic comorbidities and chronic kidney disease. Moreover, we present perspectives on optimization of the use of MR antagonists in patients more likely to respond to such therapy and review the evidence suggesting that novel nonsteroidal MR antagonists offer an improved safety profile while retaining their cardiovascular protective effects. Finally, we highlight future therapeutic applications of MR antagonists in cardiovascular injury.

Abstract
Fine tuning of Na+ reabsorption takes place along the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, which includes the collecting duct (CD), where it is mainly regulated by aldosterone. In the CD, Na+ reabsorption is mediated by the epithelial Na+ channel and Na+ pump (Na+-K+-ATPase). Paracellular ion permeability is mainly dependent on tight junction permeability. Claudin-8 is one of the main tight junction proteins expressed along the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron. We have previously shown a coupling between transcellular Na+ reabsorption and paracellular Na+ barrier. We hypothesized that aldosterone controls the expression levels of both transcellular Na+ transporters and paracellular claudin-8 in a coordinated manner. Here, we show that aldosterone increased mRNA and protein levels as well as lateral membrane localization of claudin-8 in cultured CD principal cells. The increase in claudin-8 mRNA levels in response to aldosterone was prevented by preincubation with 17-hydroxyprogesterone, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, and by inhibition of transcription with actinomycin D. We also showed that a low-salt diet, which stimulated aldosterone secretion, was associated with increased claudin-8 abundance in the mouse kidney. Reciprocally, mice subjected to a high-salt diet, which inhibits aldosterone secretion, or treated with spironolactone, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, displayed decreased claudin-8 expression. Inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3, Lyn, and Abl signaling pathways prevented the effect of aldosterone on claudin-8 mRNA and protein abundance, suggesting that signaling of protein kinases plays a permissive role on the transcriptional activity of the mineralocorticoid receptor. This study shows that signaling via multiple protein kinases working in concert mediates aldosterone-induced claudin-8 expression in the CD.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In this study, we showed that aldosterone modulates claudin-8 expression in cultured collecting duct principal cells and in the mouse kidney. The upregulation of claudin-8 expression in response to aldosterone is dependent on at least glycogen synthase kinase-3, Lyn, and Abl signaling pathways, indicating the participation of multiple protein kinases to the effect of aldosterone.

Steroids 2020; 155:108553.

Abstract
Protein kinase D2 (PKD2) is a serine/threonine protein kinase which plays an important role in vesicle fission at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to coordinate subcellular trafficking with gene expression. We found that in the rat kidney, PKD2 is specifically expressed in collecting duct principal cells predominantly at the apical membrane and with lower basal expression in cytosolic compartments. When rats were maintained on a Na+ depleted diet (<0.87 mmol Na+/kg) to increase plasma aldosterone levels, PKD2 became internalized to a cytoplasmic compartment. Treatment of murine M1 cortical collecting duct (M1-CCD) cells with aldosterone (10 nM) promoted PKD2 co-localization with the trans-Golgi network within 30 min. PKD2 underwent autophosphorylation at Ser876 within 10 min of aldosterone treatment and remained phosphorylated (active) for at least 24 h. A stable PKD2 shRNA knock-down (PKD2 KD) M1-CCD cell line was developed to study the role of PKD2 in epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) trafficking and transepithelial Na+ transport (SCC) in epithelial monolayers grown in Ussing chambers. The PKD2 KD cells developed transepithelial resistance with kinetics equivalent to wild-type cells, however the transepithelial voltage and Na+ current were significantly elevated in PKD2 knock-down CCD epithelia. The higher basal SCC was due to increased ENaC activity. Aldosterone treatment for 24 h resulted in a decline in ENaC activity in the PKD2 KD cells as opposed to the increase observed in the wild-type cells. The paradoxical inhibition of SCC by aldosterone in PKD2 KD epithelium was attributed to a reduction in ENaC current and lower membrane abundance of ENaC, demonstrating that PKD2 plays a critical tonic role in ENaC trafficking and channel subunit stability. The rapid activation of PKD2 by aldosterone is synergistic with the transcriptional activity of MR and contributes to increased ENaC activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the predictive value of a routine urine test for premature rupture of the fetal membranes. METHODS Routine urine test data of 100 patients with preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM) and 100 patients with full-term premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) were collected by the case-based method. Additionally, 100 healthy pregnant women and 100 nonpregnant adult healthy women were selected as the negative control group and blank control group, respectively. A receiver operating characteristic curve was established after identifying the different parameters. RESULTS We found that occult blood, glucose, ketone bodies, urine specific gravity, red blood cell count, epithelial cell count, bacteria, yeast, crystals, and electrical conductivity were significantly different between the PPROM and PROM groups. There were significant differences in occult blood, protein, glucose, ketone bodies, pH, red blood cell count, bacteria, urine specific gravity, crystals, and electrical conductivity between the PPROM and full-term groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that when the cut-off for bacteria was 130.15, it had the largest area under the curve value of 0.696. CONCLUSION A routine urine test, especially for bacterial counts, has certain predictive value for PROM.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to investigate the effects and mechanism of polysaccharide (PAOF) from Alpiniae oxyphyllae fructus on urinary incontinence (UI) in old-age hydruric model rats (OHMR). Results suggested that PAOF can significantly reduce the urination volume, Na+, Cl- emission and increase K+ excretion of OHMR. In addition, PAOF can increase the content of aldosterone (ALD) and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in blood of OHMR. The coefficients of spleen, thymus and adrenal of OHMR were improved by PAOF. Furthermore, PAOF can not only elevate significantly the expression of β3-adrenoceptor mRNA in bladder detrusor of OHMR, but also increase the content of adenylate cyclase (AC), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) in bladder detrusor of OHMR. Meanwhile, PAOF can elevate significantly the expression of PKA protein in bladder detrusor of rats with polyuria. The data implied that PAOF may offer therapeutic potential against UI.

Maternal protein restriction differentially alters the expression of AQP1, AQP9 and VEGFr-2 in the epididymis of rat offspring. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20030469.

Abstract
Background: Maternal protein restriction causes sperm alterations in the offspring, most of which are associated with epididymal functions. Because fluid reabsorption/secretion dynamics in the epididymal environment play important roles in the process of sperm maturation and concentration, we investigated the effects of maternal protein restriction on the expression of aquaporins (AQP1 and AQP9), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFa), and its receptor VEGFr-2 in different stages of postnatal epididymal development. Methods: Pregnant rats were divided into groups that received normoprotein (17% protein) and low-protein diets (6% protein) during gestation and lactation. After weaning, male rats only received the standard diet and were euthanized at the predetermined ages of 21, 44 and 120 days. Results: Maternal protein restriction decreased AQP1 and AQP9 expression in the initial segment and caput epididymis compared to the increased expression of these proteins observed in the corpus and cauda at all ages. Although protein restriction reduced the microvasculature density (MVD) on postnatal day (PND) 21 and 44, the MVD was unaltered on PND 120. Conclusions: Maternal protein restriction changed the structure or function of the offspring’s epididymis, specifically by affecting fluid dynamics and vasculogenesis in important stages of epididymis development.
