Abstract
Dopamine-mediated regulation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in the posterior gills of some crustaceans has been reported to be involved in osmoregulation. The dopamine receptors of invertebrates are classified into three groups based on their structure and pharmacology: D1- and D2-like receptors and a distinct invertebrate receptor subtype (INDR). We tested the hypothesis that a D1-like receptor is expressed in the blue crab Callinectes sapidus and regulates Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. RT-PCR, using degenerate primers, showed the presence of D1βR mRNA in the posterior gill. The blue crab posterior gills showed positive immunostaining for a dopamine D5 receptor (D5R or D1βR) antibody in the basolateral membrane and cytoplasm. Confocal microscopy showed colocalization of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and D1βR in the basolateral membrane. To determine the effect of D1-like receptor stimulation on Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, intact crabs acclimated to low salinity for 6 days were given an intracardiac infusion of the D1-like receptor agonist fenoldopam, with or without the D1-like receptor antagonist SCH23390. Fenoldopam increased cAMP production twofold and decreased Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by 50% in the posterior gills. This effect was blocked by coinfusion with SCH23390, which had no effect on Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by itself. Fenoldopam minimally decreased D1βR protein expression (10%) but did not affect Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase α-subunit protein expression. This study shows the presence of functional D1βR in the posterior gills of euryhaline crabs chronically exposed to low salinity and highlights the evolutionarily conserved function of the dopamine receptors on sodium homeostasis.

Abstract
The role of dopamine receptors in blood pressure regulation is well established. Genetic ablation of both dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes (D1, D5) and D2-like receptor subtypes (D2, D3, D4) results in a hypertensive phenotype in mice. This review focuses on the dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes D1 and D5 (especially D1 receptors), as they play a major role in regulating sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Studies mostly describing the role of renal dopamine D1-like receptors are included, as the kidneys play a pivotal role in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and the long-term regulation of blood pressure. We also attempt to describe the interaction between D1-like receptors and other proteins, especially angiotensin II type 1 and type 2 receptors, which are involved in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Finally, we discuss a new concept of renal D1 receptor regulation in hypertension that involves oxidative stress mechanisms.

Abstract
Accumulated studies reported that the natruretic dopamine (DA) and the anti-natruretic angiotensin II (Ang II) represent an important mechanism to regulate renal Na(+) and water excretion through intracellular secondary messengers to inhibit or activate renal proximal tubule (PT) Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA). The antagonistic actions were mediated by the phosphorylation of different position of NKA α₁-subunit and different Pals-associated tight junction protein (PATJ) PDZ domains, the different protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms (PKC-β, PKC-ζ), the common adenylyl cyclase (AC) pathway, and the crosstalk and balance between DA and Ang II to NKA regulation. Besides, Ang II-mediated NKA modulation has bi-phasic effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A polymorphism of the human alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor (Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor) has been described, and this receptor exhibits reduced G-protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) phosphorylation and impaired short-term desensitization. Expression of the Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor also is associated with an increased risk for myocardial infarction in humans. Recent evidence from our laboratory suggests a quantitative relationship between cellular GRK3 expression levels and the sensitivity of the alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor to agonist-induced down-regulation. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to study agonist-induced down-regulation of the wild-type (WT)- and Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor in a neuronal cell model. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Haemagglutinin (HA) epitope-tagged WT- and Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor containing plasmids were constructed and the receptors were stably or transiently transfected in neuroblastoma/glioma hybrid NG108 cells. The expression levels in stable transfects were approximately 50 fmol x mg(-1). These cells were used to examine agonist-induced down-regulation and phosphorylation of the WT- and Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor. KEY RESULTS The Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor, compared with the WT-alpha(2B-)adrenoceptor, displayed reduced adrenaline-stimulated (20 microM) phosphorylation and did not down-regulate in response to adrenaline (20-1000 microM). Using immunofluorescence labelling, we observed that transiently transfected WT-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptors internalized upon adrenaline treatment whereas the Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor did not. Finally, we determined the effect of adrenaline on the Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor in cells stably over-expressing GRK3 3-fold. In spite of the GRK3 over-expression, 20-1000 microM ADR failed to down-regulate or to increase phosphorylation of the Del(301-303)-alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor in these cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The results suggest that the 301-303 deletion mutation of the alpha(2B)-adrenoceptor eliminates agonist-induced down-regulation, an effect that cannot be overcome by increasing agonist concentration or by modest GRK3 over-expression.

Abstract
Renal dopamine and nitric oxide contribute to natriuresis during high-salt intake which maintains sodium and blood pressure homeostasis. We wanted to determine whether concurrent inhibition of these natriuretic factors increases blood pressure during high-sodium intake. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following groups: 1) vehicle (V)-tap water, 2) NaCl-1% NaCl drinking water, 3) 30 mM l-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an oxidant, 4) BSO plus NaCl, and 5) BSO plus NaCl with 1 mM tempol (antioxidant). Compared with V, NaCl intake for 10 days doubled sodium intake and increased urinary dopamine level but reduced urinary nitric oxide content. NaCl intake also reduced basal renal proximal tubular Na-K-ATPase activity with no effect on blood pressure. However, NaCl intake in BSO-treated rats failed to reduce basal Na-K-ATPase activity despite higher urinary dopamine levels. Also, dopamine failed to inhibit proximal tubular Na-K-ATPase activity and these rats exhibited reduced urinary nitric oxide levels and high blood pressure. Tempol supplementation in NaCl plus BSO-treated rats reduced blood pressure. BSO treatment alone did not affect the urinary nitric oxide and dopamine levels or blood pressure. However, dopamine failed to inhibit proximal tubular Na-K-ATPase activity in BSO-treated rats. BSO treatment also increased basal protein kinase C activity, D1 receptor serine phosphorylation, and oxidative markers like malondialdehyde and 8-isoprostane. We suggest that NaCl-mediated reduction in nitric oxide does not increase blood pressure due to activation of D1 receptor signaling. Conversely, oxidative stress-provoked inhibition of D1 receptor signaling fails to elevate blood pressure due to presence of normal nitric oxide. However, simultaneously decreasing nitric oxide levels with NaCl and inhibiting D1 receptor signaling with BSO elevated blood pressure.

Abstract
Dopamine is important in the pathogenesis of hypertension because of abnormalities in receptor-mediated regulation of renal sodium transport. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1), D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), D(4)) subtypes, all of which are expressed in the kidney. Mice deficient in specific dopamine receptors have been generated to provide holistic assessment on the varying physiological roles of each receptor subtype. This review examines recent studies on these mutant mouse models and evaluates the impact of individual dopamine receptor subtypes on blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport and by interacting with vasoactive hormones/humoral factors, such as aldosterone, angiotensin, catecholamines, endothelin, oxytocin, prolactin pro-opiomelancortin, reactive oxygen species, renin, and vasopressin. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1) and D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), and D(4)) subtypes based on their structure and pharmacology. In recent years, mice deficient in one or more of the five dopamine receptor subtypes have been generated, leading to a better understanding of the physiological role of each of the dopamine receptor subtypes. This review summarizes the results from studies of various dopamine receptor mutant mice on the role of individual dopamine receptor subtypes and their interactions with other G protein-coupled receptors in the regulation of blood pressure.

Abstract
We determined angiotensin II (Ang II) AT(1) receptor function in terms of Na-K-ATPAse (NKA) stimulation in the proximal tubule (PTs) of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Ang II (10 pM) stimulated NKA activity in PTs of control rats but not diabetic rats. The AT(1) receptor expression was similar, but the expression of G-proteins (G(i)alpha2 and G(i)alpha3) in the PTs was decreased in diabetic compared with control rats. Kinetic studies revealed an increase in NKA affinity, low K(0.5,) for Na, with no changes in V(max) of the enzyme in diabetic compared with control rats. Basal Ser-phosphorylation of NKA alpha1-subunit was lower in diabetic compared with control rats. This data suggest that the higher basal NKA affinity for Na, possibly due to lower Ser-phosphorylaion of alpha1-subunit and not the AT(1) receptor function, in the PTs may be responsible for increased renal Na reabsorption associated with early stage of streptozotocin-induced diabetes.

Abstract
Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport, vascular smooth muscle contractility and production of reactive oxygen species and by interacting with the renin–angiotensin and sympathetic nervous systems. Dopamine receptors are classified into D1-like (D1 and D5) and D2-like (D2, D3 and D4) subtypes based on their structure and pharmacology. Each of the dopamine receptor subtypes participates in the regulation of blood pressure by mechanisms specific for the subtype. Some receptors regulate blood pressure by influencing the central and/or peripheral nervous system; others influence epithelial transport and regulate the secretion and receptors of several humoral agents. This review summarizes the physiology of the different dopamine receptors in the regulation of blood pressure, and the relationship between dopamine receptor subtypes and hypertension.

Abstract
Cellular levels of G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK)3 determine the sensitivity of the alpha(2A/B)-adrenoceptor (alpha(2)-AR) to agonist-induced down-regulation. Using human neuroblastoma BE(2)-C cells, this study examines how cellular GRK3 levels are affected by several mechanisms reported to influence stability and degradation of other GRKs. We first examined the interaction between the 90-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90) and GRK3; Hsp90 reportedly affects the maturation and stability of GRK2. In unstimulated cells, GRK3 coimmunoprecipitates with Hsp90, suggesting a physical interaction. Moreover, when GRK3 protein expression was increased by 24-h epinephrine (EPI) treatment, Hsp90 protein expression increased with a similar but slightly delayed time course. To investigate the influence of Hsp90 on GRK3 protein stability, we determined the effect of the Hsp90 inhibitor geldanamycin (GA) on cellular GRK3 levels. GA eliminated the interaction between Hsp90 with GRK3 and produced a rapid, proteasome-mediated, 70% decrease in GRK3 levels within 24 h. To investigate the influence of Hsp90 on up-regulation of GRK3 expression, we examined the effect of GA on EPI-induced up-regulation. GA reduced the absolute increase in GRK3; however, the percentage of increase in GRK3 by EPI was not significantly different in the absence versus presence of GA (141 +/- 41 versus 94 +/- 12%). Finally, we examined the influence of Ca(2+)-activated proteases on cellular GRK3. Treatment with the calcium ionophore ionomycin produced a rapid decrease in GRK3 levels that was inhibited by the calpain inhibitor calpeptin. In conclusion, several mechanisms influence the degradation of GRK3 and therefore have the potential to affect GPCR signaling by regulating GRK3 levels in neurons.

Abstract
SUMMARYThe effects of dopamine (DA) and dopaminergic agonists and antagonists on ion transport were studied in isolated perfused gills of the crab Chasmagnathus granulatus. DA applied under steady state conditions(perfusion with hemolymph-like saline) produced a transient increase of the transepithelial potential difference (Vte) from 2.2±0.2 to 4.8±0.3 mV, describing an initial cAMP-dependent stimulating phase followed by an inhibitory phase. Spiperone and domperidone(antagonists of D2-like DA receptors in vertebrates) completely blocked the response to DA, while the D1-like antagonist SCH23390 blocked only the inhibitory phase. Theophylline (phosphodiesterase inhibitor) and okadaic acid(protein phosphatases PP1 and PP2A inhibitor) were also able to block the inhibitory phase, suggesting that it depends on adenylyl cyclase inhibition and on protein phosphatases. When the gills were perfused with hypo-osmotic solution, or with the adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin, Vte was increased several-fold. DA applied under these stimulated conditions partially reversed the Vte increase by 54% and 25%, respectively. Similarly, the D1-like agonist, fenoldopam,produced a 33% reduction in the stimulated Vte. We propose that, in C. granulatus gills, DA stimulates adenylyl cyclase and therefore ion transport through D1-like receptors linked to a Gs protein,although they respond to antagonists that interact with D2-like receptors in vertebrates. The inhibitory phase seems to be mediated by D2-like receptors linked to a Gi/o protein, which inhibits adenylyl cyclase, although these receptors can be activated or blocked by agonists or antagonists that interact with D1-like receptors in vertebrates and insects.

Abstract
We have reported recently that the renal angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptors are upregulated and involved in promoting natriuresis/diuresis in obese but not in lean Zucker rats. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that there is an enhanced AT2 receptor signaling via NO/cGMP pathway leading to greater inhibition of the Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA) activity in the proximal tubules (PT) of obese rather than lean Zucker rats. The AT2 agonist CGP42112 (0.1 to 100 nmol/L) inhibited (33% at 100 nmol/L) the NKA activity in the PTs of obese but not in lean Zucker rats. The AT2 antagonist PD123319 (1 micromol/L), not the angiotensin II type 1 antagonist losartan (1 micromol/L), significantly diminished the CGP42112-induced inhibition of the NKA activity in obese rats. The AT2 agonist (10 nmol/L)-induced NKA inhibition was abolished by the soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor 1H-[1,2,4] oxadiazolo-[4,3-a] quinoxalin-1-one (10 micromol/L), the NO synthase inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (100 micromol/L), and the protein kinase G inhibitor K1388 (2 micromole/L). CGP42112 (10 nmol/L) caused an increase in serine phosphorylation of NKA alpha1-subunit in PT of obese rats. Measurement of cGMP and NO revealed that CGP42112 (0.1 to 100 nmol/L) increased cGMP and NO accumulation in the PTs of obese but not lean rats. The CGP42112-induced stimulation of NO and cGMP was blocked by PD123319 (1 micromol/L), NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (100 micromol/L), and 1H-[1,2,4] oxadiazolo-[4,3-a] quinoxalin-1-one (10 micromol/L) but not by losartan (1 micromol/L). The data suggest that the AT2 receptor activation via stimulation of the NO/cGMP/protein kinase G pathway directly inhibits the tubular NKA activity that provides as a mechanism responsible for the AT2 receptor-mediated natriuresis in obese but not in lean Zucker rats.

Abstract
Dopamine, via activation of D1-like receptors, inhibits Na,K-ATPase and Na,H-exchanger in renal proximal tubules and promotes sodium excretion. This effect of dopamine is not seen in conditions associated with oxidative stress such as hypertension, diabetes, and aging due to uncoupling of D1-like receptors from G proteins. To identify the role of oxidative stress in uncoupling of the D1-like receptors, we utilized primary cultures from rat renal proximal tubules. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), an oxidant, treatment to the cell cultures increased the level of malondialdehyde, a marker of oxidative damage. Further, H2O2 decreased membranous D1-like receptor numbers and proteins, D1-like agonist (SKF 38393)-mediated [35S]GTPgammaS binding and SKF 38393-mediated inhibition of Na,K-ATPase. Moreover, H2O2 treatment to the cultures caused membranous translocation of G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK 2) and increased serine phosphorylation of D1A receptors accompanied by an increase in protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Interestingly, PKC inhibitors blocked the H2O2-mediated stimulation of GRK 2 and serine phosphorylation of D1A receptors. Further, GRK 2 antisense but not scrambled oligonucleotides attenuated the effect of H2O2 on membranous expression of GRK 2. Moreover, direct activation of PKC with phorbol ester (PMA) resulted in reduction of SKF 38393-mediated [35S]GTPgammaS binding. We conclude that H2O2 stimulates PKC leading to the activation of GRK 2, which causes serine phopshorylation of D1A receptors and receptor G-protein uncoupling in these cells, resulting in impairment in D1-like receptor function.

Abstract
Abnormalities in dopamine production and receptor function have been described in human essential hypertension and rodent models of genetic hypertension. Under normal conditions, D(1)-like receptors (D(1) and D(5)) inhibit sodium transport in the kidney and intestine. However, in the Dahl salt-sensitive and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and in humans with essential hypertension, the D(1)-like receptor-mediated inhibition of epithelial sodium transport is impaired because of an uncoupling of the D(1)-like receptor from its G protein/effector complex. The uncoupling is receptor specific, organ selective, nephron-segment specific, precedes the onset of hypertension, and cosegregates with the hypertensive phenotype. The defective transduction of the renal dopaminergic signal is caused by activating variants of G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 (GRK4: R65L, A142V, A486V). The GRK4 locus is linked to and GRK4 gene variants are associated with human essential hypertension, especially in salt-sensitive hypertensive subjects. Indeed, the presence of three or more GRK4 variants impairs the natriuretic response to dopaminergic stimulation in humans. In genetically hypertensive rats, renal inhibition of GRK4 expression ameliorates the hypertension. In mice, overexpression of GRK4 variants causes hypertension either with or without salt sensitivity according to the variant. GRK4 gene variants, by preventing the natriuretic function of the dopaminergic system and by allowing the antinatriuretic factors (e.g., angiotensin II type 1 receptor) to predominate, may be responsible for salt sensitivity. Subclasses of hypertension may occur because of additional perturbations caused by variants of other genes, the quantitative interaction of which may vary depending upon the genetic background.

Abstract
Previously, we reported that natriuretic and diuretic response to dopamine is diminished in old Fischer 344 rats, which is due to higher basal protein kinase C (PKC) activity and hyperphosphorylation of Na-K-ATPase in the proximal tubules (PTs) of old rats. The present study was conducted to determine whether higher PKC activity could be due to altered expression of some of the PKC isoforms in the superficial cortex (rich in PTs) of old rats. Fluorimetric measurement showed almost twofold increase in the PKC activities in homogenates and membranes of old (24 mo) compared with adult (6 mo) rats. Interestingly, in the basal state PKC-betaI was overexpressed in the membranes, whereas PKC-delta expression was increased in the cytosol of old compared with adult rats. Treatment of the cortical slices with either SKF-38393, a D1-like agonist, or PDBu, a direct activator of PKC, caused translocation of PKC-betaI from cytosol to membranes in adult but not in old rats. Both of these drugs caused translocation of PKC-delta from membranes to cytosol in adult but not in old rats. These drugs had no effect on translocation of PKC-zeta in both adult and old rats. Both PKC-betaI and -delta co-immunoprecipitated with alpha1-subunit of Na-K-ATPase in adult and old rats. These observations suggest that both SKF-38393 and PDBu differentially regulate PKC-betaI and -delta in adult but not in old rats. Also, PKC-betaI and -delta seem to interact with Na-K-ATPase in these animals. The overexpression of both PKC-betaI and -delta in old rats could be responsible for a higher basal PKC activity, which causes the hyperphosphorylation of Na-K-ATPase and contributes to the diminished inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity by dopamine in old rats.

Abstract
Our previous in vitro microperfusion studies established that dopamine inhibits sodium chloride transport in the rat medullary thick ascending limb. The present study was designed to determine the intracellular signaling pathway mediating this response. The dopamine D1 receptor agonist fenoldopam (1 microM) inhibited sodium chloride transport in the thick ascending limb by 42+/-5%. The dopamine D1 receptor antagonist R-(+)-7-Chloro-8-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine-HCl (SCH-23390) completely blocked this effect of fenoldopam. Suppression of protein kinase A activity using either myristoylated protein kinase inhibitor (PKI) or N-[2-(p-Bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide.2HCl (H-89), as well as suppression of phospholipase C activity using 1-(6-((17 beta-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U-73122), had no effect on fenoldopam-dependent inhibition of transport. In contrast, inhibition of phospholipase A2 activity using E-6-(Bromomethylene)tetrahydro-3-(1-naphthalenyl)-2H-pyran-2-one (HELSS) significantly attenuated the effect of fenoldopam by 74%. The cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase inhibitor 17-octadecynoic acid (17-ODYA) and the protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine both significantly attenuated the effects of fenoldopam by 67%. Exposure to 20-Hydroxy-(5Z, 8Z, 11Z, 14Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) inhibited transport by 31+/-5%, and this effect was significantly attenuated by 66% in the presence of staurosporine. We propose a signaling pathway in which dopamine activates a calcium-independent phospholipase A2 in the medullary thick ascending limb. Released arachidonic acid is then metabolized to 20-HETE which subsequently increases protein kinase C activity that acts as a final transport effector.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) and D1-like receptor agonists promote an increase in Na excretion by means of activation of the D1-like receptor signaling cascade and subsequent inhibition of the Na/H exchanger and Na-K-ATPase in renal proximal tubules. Recently, our laboratory reported that DA and the D1-like receptor agonist failed to inhibit Na-K-ATPase activity in old Fischer 344 rats because of uncoupling of D1A receptors from G proteins and that this abnormality led to a diminished natriuretic response to DA in old Fischer 344 rats. In this study, we have tested the hypothesis that the mechanism of this uncoupling may be an altered phosphorylation of D1A receptors in old rats. In experiments performed in renal cortical slices, both DA and SKF-38393, a D1-like receptor agonist, increased the serine phosphorylation of D1A receptors in adult (6 mo) but not old (24 mo) rats. Interestingly, the basal serine phosphorylation of D1A receptors was higher in old than in adult rats. Competition ligand binding ([3H]SCH-23390) experiments on the D1-like receptor in adult and old rats with fenoldopam, a D1-like receptor agonist, revealed the presence of two affinity states of the receptors. There was a rightward shift in the agonist displacement of the ligand in old compared with adult rats, as reflected in the IC50 values (adult vs. old, 7.46 x 10(-9) +/- 2.26 vs. 7.93 x 10(-7) +/- 1.33 M). Also, there was a reduction in agonist affinity in the low-affinity receptors in old compared with adult rats (IC50, adult vs. old, 5.67 x 10(-5) +/- 1.33 vs. 12.60 x 10(-5) +/- 6.50 M). Moreover, the abundance of D1A receptor proteins was approximately 47% lower in the membranes of old compared with adult rats. We speculate that higher basal serine phosphorylation of D1A receptors may have rendered the D1A receptor uncoupled from G protein, leading to a reduced agonist affinity state and thus diminished natriuretic response to DA in old rats.

Abstract
The transcriptional activity of estrogen receptors (ERs) can be regulated by ligands as well as agents such as dopamine, which stimulate intracellular signaling pathways able to communicate with these receptors. We examined the ability of SKF-82958 (SKF), a previously characterized full dopamine D1 receptor agonist, to stimulate the transcriptional activity of ERalpha and ERbeta. Treatment of HeLa cells with SKF-82958 stimulated robust ERalpha-dependent transcription from an estrogen-response element-E1b-CAT reporter in the absence of estrogen, and this was accompanied by increased receptor phosphorylation. However, induction of ERbeta-directed gene expression under the same conditions was negligible. In our cell model, SKF treatment did not elevate cAMP levels nor enhance transcription from a cAMP-response element-linked reporter. Control studies revealed that SKF-82958, but not dopamine, competes with 17beta-estradiol for binding to ERalpha or ERbeta with comparable relative binding affinities. Therefore, SKF-82958 is an ERalpha-selective agonist. Transcriptional activation of ERalpha by SKF was more potent than expected from its relative binding activity, and further examination revealed that this synthetic compound induced expression of an AP-1 target gene in a tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-response element (TRE)-dependent manner. A putative TRE site upstream of the estrogen-response element and the amino-terminal domain of the receptor contributed to, but were not required for, SKF-induced expression of an ERalpha-dependent reporter gene. Overexpression of the AP-1 protein c-Jun, but not c-Fos, strongly enhanced SKF-induced ERalpha target gene expression but only when the TRE was present. These studies provide information on the ability of a ligand that weakly stimulates ERalpha to yield strong stimulation of ERalpha-dependent gene expression through cross-talk with other intracellular signaling pathways producing a robust combinatorial response within the cell.

Abstract
Regulation by dopamine of cardiovascular function, renal function and systemic blood pressure regulation is multifaceted. Each of the five dopamine receptor subtypes participates in the regulation of blood pressure by mechanisms specific for the subtype. Some receptors regulate blood pressure by influencing the central or peripheral nervous system; others influence epithelial transport and regulate the secretion and receptors of several humoral agents. The D1, D3, and D4 receptors interact with the renin-angiotensin system, while the D2 and D5 receptors interact with the sympathetic nervous system to regulate blood pressure.
