Abstract
AIM Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors often cause a transient decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) shortly after the initiation, referred to as the 'initial drop'. However, the clinical significance of this initial drop in real-world practice remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the nationwide Japan Chronic Kidney Disease Database, we examined factors that affected the initial drop, in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We also evaluated the effects of the initial drop on a composite kidney outcome (a decline in GFR of ≥50% or progression to end-stage kidney disease). RESULTS Data from 2053 patients with CKD and T2DM newly prescribed an SGLT2 inhibitor were analysed. The follow-up period after SGLT2 inhibitor administration was 1015 days (interquartile range: 532, 1678). Multivariate linear regression models revealed that the concomitant use of the renin-angiotensin system inhibitors and diuretics, urinary protein levels ≥2+, and changes in GFR before the initiation of the SGLT2 inhibitor were associated with a larger initial GFR decline (β = -0.609, p = .039; β = -2.298, p < .001; β = -0.936, p = .048; β = -0.079, p < .001, respectively). Patients in the quartile with the largest initial GFR decline experienced a higher incidence of the subsequent composite kidney outcome than those in the other quartiles (p < .001). CONCLUSIONS The concomitant use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors and diuretics, higher urine protein levels and pre-treatment GFR changes were associated with a larger initial GFR decline. Of these factors, the use of a diuretic had the largest effect. Furthermore, patients with CKD and T2DM experiencing an excessive initial GFR drop might be at a higher risk of adverse kidney outcomes.

Role of Angiotensin II Type 1a Receptor (AT1aR) of Renal Tubules in Regulating Inwardly Rectifying Potassium Channels 4.2 (Kir4.2), Kir4.1, and Epithelial Na + Channel (ENaC). Hypertension 2024; 81:126-137. [PMID: 37909221 PMCID: PMC10842168 DOI: 10.1161/hypertensionaha.123.21389] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Kir4.2 and Kir4.1 play a role in regulating membrane transport in the proximal tubule (PT) and in the distal-convoluted-tubule (DCT), respectively. METHODS We generated kidney-tubule-specific-AT1aR-knockout (Ks-AT1aR-KO) mice to examine whether renal AT1aR regulates Kir4.2 and Kir4.1. RESULTS Ks-AT1aR-KO mice had a lower systolic blood pressure than Agtr1aflox/flox (control) mice. Ks-AT1aR-KO mice had a lower expression of NHE3 (Na+/H+-exchanger 3) and Kir4.2, a major Kir-channel in PT, than Agtr1aflox/flox mice. Whole-cell recording also demonstrated that the membrane potential in PT of Ks-AT1aR-KO mice was lesser negative than Agtr1aflox/flox mice. The expression of Kir4.1 and Kir5.1, Kir4.1/Kir5.1-mediated K+ currents of DCT and DCT membrane potential in Ks-AT1aR-KO mice, were similar to Agtr1aflox/flox mice. However, angiotensin II perfusion for 7 days hyperpolarized the membrane potential in PT and DCT of the control mice but not in Ks-AT1aR-KO mice, while angiotensin II perfusion did not change the expression of Kir4.1, Kir4.2, and Kir5.1. Deletion of AT1aR did not significantly affect the expression of αENaC (epithelial Na+ channel) and βENaC but increased cleaved γENaC expression. Patch-clamp experiments demonstrated that deletion of AT1aR increased amiloride-sensitive Na+-currents in the cortical-collecting duct but not in late-DCT. However, tertiapin-Q sensitive renal outer medullary potassium channel currents were similar in both genotypes. CONCLUSIONS AT1aR determines the baseline membrane potential of PT by controlling Kir4.2 expression/activity but AT1aR is not required for determining the baseline membrane potential of the DCT and Kir4.1/Kir5.1 activity/expression. However, AT1aR is required for angiotensin II-induced hyperpolarization of basolateral membrane of PT and DCT. Deletion of AT1aR had no effect on baseline renal outer medullary potassium channel activity but increased ENaC activity in the CCD.

Cells 2023; 12:1492. [PMID: 37296613 PMCID: PMC10252550 DOI: 10.3390/cells12111492] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
The current prevailing paradigm in the renin-angiotensin system dictates that most, if not all, biological, physiological, and pathological responses to its most potent peptide, angiotensin II (Ang II), are mediated by extracellular Ang II activating its cell surface receptors. Whether intracellular (or intracrine) Ang II and its receptors are involved remains incompletely understood. The present study tested the hypothesis that extracellular Ang II is taken up by the proximal tubules of the kidney by an AT1 (AT1a) receptor-dependent mechanism and that overexpression of an intracellular Ang II fusion protein (ECFP/Ang II) in mouse proximal tubule cells (mPTC) stimulates the expression of Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3), Na+/HCO3- cotransporter, and sodium and glucose cotransporter 2 (Sglt2) by AT1a/MAPK/ERK1/2/NF-kB signaling pathways. mPCT cells derived from male wild-type and type 1a Ang II receptor-deficient mice (Agtr1a-/-) were transfected with an intracellular enhanced cyan fluorescent protein-tagged Ang II fusion protein, ECFP/Ang II, and treated without or with AT1 receptor blocker losartan, AT2 receptor blocker PD123319, MEK1/MEK2 inhibitor U0126, NF-кB inhibitor RO 106-9920, or p38 MAP kinase inhibitor SB202196, respectively. In wild-type mPCT cells, the expression of ECFP/Ang II significantly increased NHE3, Na+/HCO3-, and Sglt2 expression (p < 0.01). These responses were accompanied by >3-fold increases in the expression of phospho-ERK1/2 and the p65 subunit of NF-кB (p < 0.01). Losartan, U0126, or RO 106-9920 all significantly attenuated ECFP/Ang II-induced NHE3 and Na+/HCO3- expression (p < 0.01). Deletion of AT1 (AT1a) receptors in mPCT cells attenuated ECFP/Ang II-induced NHE3 and Na+/HCO3- expression (p < 0.01). Interestingly, the AT2 receptor blocker PD123319 also attenuated ECFP/Ang II-induced NHE3 and Na+/HCO3- expression (p < 0.01). These results suggest that, similar to extracellular Ang II, intracellular Ang II may also play an important role in Ang II receptor-mediated proximal tubule NHE3, Na+/HCO3-, and Sglt2 expression by activation of AT1a/MAPK/ERK1/2/NF-kB signaling pathways.

The membrane-associated protein 17 (MAP17) is up-regulated in response to empagliflozin on top of RAS blockade in experimental diabetic nephropathy. Clin Sci (Lond) 2023; 137:87-104. [PMID: 36524468 DOI: 10.1042/cs20220447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have proven to delay diabetic kidney disease (DKD) progression on top of the standard of care with the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade. The molecular mechanisms underlying the synergistic effect of SGLT2i and RAS blockers is poorly understood. We gave a SGLT2i (empagliflozin), an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ramipril), or a combination of both drugs for 8 weeks to diabetic (db/db) mice. Vehicle-treated db/db and db/m mice were used as controls. At the end of the experiment, mice were killed, and the kidneys were saved to perform a differential high-throughput proteomic analysis by mass spectrometry using isobaric tandem mass tags (TMT labeling) that allow relative quantification of the identified proteins. The differential proteomic analysis revealed 203 proteins differentially expressed in one or more experimental groups (false discovery rate < 0.05 and Log2 fold change ≥ ±1). Fourteen were differentially expressed in the kidneys from the db/db mice treated with empagliflozin with ramipril. Among them, MAP17 was up-regulated. These findings were subsequently validated by Western blot. The combined therapy of empagliflozin and ramipril up-regulated MAP17 in the kidney of a diabetic mice model. MAP17 is a major scaffolding protein of the proximal tubular cells that places transporters together, namely SGLT2 and NHE3. Our results suggest that SGLT2i on top of RAS blockade may protect the kidney by boosting the inactivation of NHE3 via the up-regulation of key scaffolder proteins such as MAP17.

Abstract
As the main exchanger of electroneutral NaCl absorption, sodium-hydrogen exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) circulates in the epithelial brush border (BB) and intracellular compartments in a multi-protein complex. The size of the NHE3 complex changes during rapid regulation events. Recycling regulation of NHE3 in epithelial cells can be roughly divided into three stages. First, when stimulated by Ca2+, cGMP, and cAMP-dependent signaling pathways, NHE3 is converted from an immobile complex found at the apical microvilli (MV) into an easily internalized and mobile form that relocates to a compartment near the base of the MV. Second, NHE3 is internalized by clathrin and albumin-dependent pathways into cytoplasmic endosomal compartments, where the complex is reprocessed and reassembled. Finally, NHE3 is translocated from the recycling endosomes (REs) to the apex of epithelial cells, a process that can be stimulated by an increase in sodium-glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) activity, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling, Ca2+ signaling, and binding to βPix and SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains 2 (Shank2) proteins. This review describes the molecular steps and protein interactions involved in the recycling movement of NHE3 from the apex of epithelial cells, into vesicles, where it is reprocessed and reassembled, and returned to its original location on the plasma membrane, where it exerts its physiological function.

Abstract
Abnormality in glucose homeostasis due to hyperglycemia or insulin resistance is the hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). These metabolic abnormalities in T2DM lead to cellular dysfunction and the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy leading to heart failure. New antihyperglycemic agents including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been shown to attenuate endothelial dysfunction at the cellular level. In addition, they improved cardiovascular safety by exhibiting cardioprotective effects. The mechanism by which these drugs exert their cardioprotective effects is unknown, although recent studies have shown that cardiovascular homeostasis occurs through the interplay of the sodium-hydrogen exchangers (NHE), specifically NHE1 and NHE3, with SGLT2i. Another theoretical explanation for the cardioprotective effects of SGLT2i is through natriuresis by the kidney. This theory highlights the possible involvement of renal NHE transporters in the management of heart failure. This review outlines the possible mechanisms responsible for causing diabetic cardiomyopathy and discusses the interaction between NHE and SGLT2i in cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
This study investigated the impact of intrarenal angiotensin 1-7 (Ang [1-7]) infusion on renal excretory function in a rat model of hypertension. Eleven-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs, n = 7) and Han Wistar controls (NCR, n = 7) were anaesthetised with sodium pentobarbital (60 mg/kg i.p.) and prepared for the measurement of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and left renal function during renal interstitial infusion of Ang (1-7) (50 ng/min). The kidneys were harvested, the renal cortex and medulla separated, prepared for measurement of Ang II and Ang (1-7) and Western blot determination of AT1 and Mas receptor protein expression. MAP, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), urine flow (UF) and absolute sodium excretion (UNaV) were 109 ± 16 mmHg, 4.4 ± 1.0 mL/min/kg, 102 ± 16 µL/min/kg and 16 ± 3 µmol/min/kg, respectively in the NCR and 172 ± 24 mmHg, 3.4 ± 0.7 mL/min/kg, 58 ± 30 μL/min/kg and 8.6 ± 4.8 μmol/min/kg respectively in the SHR. Ang (1-7) increased UF (31%), UNa V (50%) and fractional sodium excretion (FENa+ ) (22%) in the NCR group (all p < 0.05) but had no effect on GFR in either group. The magnitudes of the Ang (1-7)-induced increases in UF and UNa V were significantly blunted in the SHR group (model × drug p < 0.05). The renal cortical AT1: Mas receptor expression ratio was significantly higher in the SHR group (p < 0.05) but renal Ang II and Ang (1-7) levels were not statistically different between groups. The Ang (1-7)-induced increases in sodium and water excretion were impaired in the SHR group in the context of an unstimulated RAS. The decrease in responsiveness of the SHR kidney to Ang (1-7) appears to be associated with higher levels of AT1 receptor expression in the renal cortex.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporters inhibitors (SGLT2-i) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) are glucose-lowering drugs that are proved to reduce the cardiovascular (CV) risk in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this process, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is assumed to play a role. The inhibition of SGLT2 improves hyperglycemia hampering urinary reabsorption of glucose and inducing glycosuria. This "hybrid" diuretic effect, which couples natriuresis with osmotic diuresis, potentially leads to systemic RAAS activation. However, the association between SGLT2-i and systemic RAAS activation is not straightforward. Available data indicate that SGLT2-i cause plasma renin activity (PRA) increase in the early phase of treatment, while PRA and aldosterone levels remain unchanged in chronic treated patients. Furthermore, emerging studies provide evidence that SGLT2-i might have an interfering effect on aldosterone/renin ratio (ARR) in patients with T2DM, due to their diuretic and sympathoinhibition effects. The cardio- and reno-protective effects of GLP-1-RA are at least in part related to the interaction with RAAS. In particular, GLP1-RA counteract the action of angiotensin II (ANG II) inhibiting its synthesis, increasing the inactivation of its circulating form and contrasting its action on target tissue like glomerular endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, GLP1-RA stimulate natriuresis inhibiting Na+/H+ exchanger NHE-3, which is conversely activated by ANG II. Moreover, GLP1 infusion acutely reduces circulating aldosterone, but this effect does not seem to be chronically maintained in patients treated with GLP1-RA. In conclusion, both SGLT2-i and GLP1-RA seem to have several effects on RAAS, though additional studies are needed to clarify this relationship.

Abstract
The continuously increasing incidence of diabetes worldwide has attracted the attention of the scientific community and driven the development of a novel class of antidiabetic drugs that can be safely and effectively used in diabetic patients. Of particular interest in this context are complications associated with diabetes, such as renal impairment, which is the main cause of high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. Intensive control of glucose levels and other risk factors associated with diabetes and metabolic syndrome provides the foundations for both preventing and treating diabetic nephropathy. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors represent a highly promising novel class of oral agents used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus that may be successfully combined with currently available antidiabetic therapeutics in order to achieve blood glucose goals. Beyond glycemic control, emerging evidence suggests that DPP-4 inhibitors may have desirable off-target effects, including renoprotection. All type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with impaired renal function require dose adjustment of any DPP-4 inhibitor administered except for linagliptin, for which renal excretion is a minor elimination pathway. Thus, linagliptin is the drug most frequently chosen to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with renal failure.

[PMID: 32534034 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.117916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2020] [Revised: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 06/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Incretin-based therapies include pharmacologic agents such as glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors which exert potent anti-hyperglycemic effects in the diabetic milieu. They are also shown to have extra-pancreatic effects. Renin-angiotensin system is part of the endocrine system which is widely distributed in the body and is closely involved in water and electrolyte homeostasis as well as renal and cardiovascular functions. Hence the renin-angiotensin system is the main target for treating patients with various renal and cardiovascular disorders. There is growing evidence that incretins have modulatory effects on renin-angiotensin system activity; thereby, can be promising therapeutic agents for the management of renal and cardiovascular disorders. But the exact molecular interactions between incretins and renin-angiotensin system are not clearly understood. In this current study, we have reviewed the possible molecular mechanisms by which incretins modulate renin-angiotensin system activity.

Abstract
Background and Purpose: Although Ca2+ signaling may stimulate small intestinal ion secretion, little is known about its critical role and the molecular mechanisms of Ca2+-mediated biological action. Key Results Activation of muscarinic receptors by carbachol(CCh) stimulated mouse duodenal Isc, which was significantly inhibited in Ca2+-free serosal solution and by several selective store-operated Ca2+ channels(SOC) blockers added to the serosal side of duodenal tissues. Furthermore, we found that CRAC/Orai channels may represent the molecular candidate of SOC in intestinal epithelium. CCh increased intracellular Ca2+ but not cAMP, and Ca2+ signaling mediated duodenal Cl- and HCO3- secretion in wild type mice but not in CFTR knockout mice. CCh induced duodenal ion secretion and stimulated PI3K/Akt activity in duodenal epithelium, all of which were inhibited by selective PI3K inhibitors with different structures. CCh-induced Ca2+ signaling also stimulated the phosphorylation of CFTR proteins and their trafficking to the plasma membrane of duodenal epithelial cells, which were inhibited again by selective PI3K inhibitors. Materials and Methods Functional, biochemical and morphological experiments were performed to examine ion secretion, PI3K/Akt and CFTR activity of mouse duodenal epithelium. Ca2+ imaging was performed on HT-29 cells. Conclusions and Implications Ca2+ signaling plays a critical role in intestinal ion secretion via CRAC/Orai-mediated SOCE mechanism on the serosal side of epithelium. We also demonstrated the molecular mechanisms of Ca2+ signaling in CFTR-mediated secretion via novel PI3K/Akt pathway. Our findings suggest new perspectives for drug targets to protect the upper GI tract and control liquid homeostasis in the small intestine.

Effects of Nitric Oxide on Renal Proximal Tubular Na + Transport. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2017; 2017:6871081.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) has a wide variety of physiological functions in the kidney. Besides the regulatory effects in intrarenal haemodynamics and glomerular microcirculation, in vivo studies reported the diuretic and natriuretic effects of NO. However, opposite results showing the stimulatory effect of NO on Na+ reabsorption in the proximal tubule led to an intense debate on its physiological roles. Animal studies have showed the biphasic effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) and the overall inhibitory effect of NO on the activity of proximal tubular Na+ transporters, the apical Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3, basolateral Na+/K+ ATPase, and the Na+/HCO3− cotransporter. However, whether these effects could be reproduced in humans remained unclear. Notably, our recent functional analysis of isolated proximal tubules demonstrated that Ang II dose-dependently stimulated human proximal tubular Na+ transport through the NO/guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) pathway, confirming the human-specific regulation of proximal tubular transport via NO and Ang II. Of particular importance for this newly identified pathway is its possibility of being a human-specific therapeutic target for hypertension. In this review, we focus on NO-mediated regulation of proximal tubular Na+ transport, with emphasis on the interaction with individual Na+ transporters and the crosstalk with Ang II signalling.

Abstract
It is well recognized that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) exists not only as circulating, paracrine (cell to cell), but also intracrine (intracellular) system. In the kidney, however, it is difficult to dissect the respective contributions of circulating RAS versus intrarenal RAS to the physiological regulation of proximal tubular Na(+) reabsorption and hypertension. Here, we review recent studies to provide an update in this research field with a focus on the proximal tubular RAS in angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced hypertension. Careful analysis of available evidence supports the hypothesis that both local synthesis or formation and AT1 (AT1a) receptor- and/or megalin-mediated uptake of angiotensinogen (AGT), ANG I and ANG II contribute to high levels of ANG II in the proximal tubules of the kidney. Under physiological conditions, nearly all major components of the RAS including AGT, prorenin, renin, ANG I, and ANG II would be filtered by the glomerulus and taken up by the proximal tubules. In ANG II-dependent hypertension, the expression of AGT, prorenin, and (pro)renin receptors, and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is upregulated rather than downregulated in the kidney. Furthermore, hypertension damages the glomerular filtration barrier, which augments the filtration of circulating AGT, prorenin, renin, ANG I, and ANG II and their uptake in the proximal tubules. Together, increased local ANG II formation and augmented uptake of circulating ANG II in the proximal tubules, via activation of AT1 (AT1a) receptors and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3, may provide a powerful feedforward mechanism for promoting Na(+) retention and the development of ANG II-induced hypertension.

Abstract
A high-fructose diet is shown to induce salt-sensitive hypertension, but the underlying mechanism largely remains unknown. The major goal of the present study was to test the role of renal (pro)renin receptor (PRR) in this model. In Sprague-Dawley rats, high-fructose intake increased renal expression of full-length PRR, which were attenuated by allopurinol. High-fructose intake also upregulated renal mRNA and protein expression of sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 and Na/K/2Cl cotransporter, as well as in vivo Na/K/2Cl cotransporter activity, all of which were nearly completely blocked by a PRR decoy inhibitor PRO20 or allopurinol treatment. Parallel changes were observed for indices of intrarenal renin-angiotensin-system including renal and urinary renin and angiotensin II levels. Radiotelemetry demonstrated that high-fructose or a high-salt diet alone did not affect mean arterial pressure, but the combination of the 2 maneuvers induced a ≈10-mm Hg increase of mean arterial pressure, which was blunted by PRO20 or allopurinol treatment. In cultured human kidney 2 cells, both fructose and uric acid increased protein expression of soluble PRR in a time- and dose-dependent manner; fructose-induced PRR upregulation was inhibited by allopurinol. Taken together, our data suggest that fructose via uric acid stimulates renal expression of PRR/soluble PRR that stimulate sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 and Na/K/2Cl cotransporter expression and intrarenal renin-angiotensin system to induce salt-sensitive hypertension.

Abstract
Renal parenchymal injury predisposes to salt-sensitive hypertension, but how this occurs is not known. Here we tested whether renal tubular angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), the main site of kidney ACE expression, is central to the development of salt sensitivity in this setting. Two mouse models were used: it-ACE mice in which ACE expression is selectively eliminated from renal tubular epithelial cells; and ACE 3/9 mice, a compound heterozygous mouse model that makes ACE only in renal tubular epithelium from the ACE 9 allele, and in liver hepatocytes from the ACE 3 allele. Salt sensitivity was induced using a post L-NAME salt challenge. While both wild-type and ACE 3/9 mice developed arterial hypertension following three weeks of high salt administration, it-ACE mice remained normotensive with low levels of renal angiotensin II. These mice displayed increased sodium excretion, lower sodium accumulation, and an exaggerated reduction in distal sodium transporters. Thus, in mice with renal injury induced by L-NAME pretreatment, renal tubular epithelial ACE, and not ACE expression by renal endothelium, lung, brain, or plasma, is essential for renal angiotensin II accumulation and salt-sensitive hypertension.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE)3, a major Na(+) transporter in the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule, is subject to ANG II regulation in renal Na(+)/fluid absorption and blood pressure control. We have previously shown that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IRBIT) mediates ANG II-induced exocytosis of NHE3 in cultured proximal tubule epithelial cells. In searching for scaffold protein(s) that coordinates with IRBIT in NHE3 trafficking, we found that NHE regulatory factor (NHERF)1, NHE3, and IRBIT proteins were coexpressed in the same macrocomplexes and that loss of ANG II type 1 receptors decreased their expression in the renal brush-border membrane. We found that NHERF1 was required for ANG II-mediated forward trafficking and activation of NHE3 in cultured cells. ANG II induced a concomitant increase of NHERF1 interactions with NHE3 and IRBIT, which were abolished when the NHERF1 PDZ1 domain was removed. Overexpression of a yellow fluorescent protein-NHERF1 construct that lacks PDZ1, but not PDZ2, failed to exaggerate the ANG II-dependent increase of NHE3 expression in the apical membrane. Moreover, exogenous expression of PDZ1 exerted a dominant negative effect on NHE3 activation by ANG II. We further demonstrated that IRBIT was indispensable for the ANG II-provoked increase in NHERF1-NHE3 interactions and that phosphorylation of IRBIT at Ser(68) was necessary for the assembly of the NHEF1-IRBIT-NHE3 complex. Taken together, our findings suggest that NHERF1 mediates ANG II-induced activation of renal NHE3, which requires coordination between IRBIT and the NHERF1 PDZ1 domain in binding and transporting NHE3.

Abstract
The role of Na(+/)H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) in the kidney in angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced hypertension remains unknown. The present study used global NHE3-deficient mice with transgenic rescue of the Nhe3 gene in small intestines (tgNhe3(-/-)) to test the hypothesis that genetic deletion of NHE3 selectively in the kidney attenuates ANG II-induced hypertension. Six groups of wild-type (tgNhe3(+/+)) and tgNhe3(-/-) mice were infused with either vehicle or ANG II (1.5 mg/kg/day, i.p., 2 weeks, or 10 nmol/min, i.v., 30 min), treated with or without losartan (20 mg/kg/day, p.o.) for 2 weeks. Basal systolic blood pressure (SBP) and mean intra-arterial blood pressure (MAP) were significantly lower in tgNhe3(-/-) mice (P < 0.01). Basal glomerular filtration rate, 24 h urine excretion, urinary Na(+) excretion, urinary K(+) excretion, and urinary Cl(-) excretion were significantly lower in tgNhe3(-/-) mice (P < 0.01). These responses were associated with significantly elevated plasma ANG II and aldosterone levels, and marked upregulation in aquaporin 1, the Na(+)/HCO3 cotransporter, the α1 subunit isoform of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, protein kinase Cα, MAP kinases ERK1/2, and glycogen synthase kinase 3 α/β in the renal cortex of tgNhe3(-/-) mice (P < 0.01). ANG II infusion markedly increased SBP and MAP and renal cortical transporter and signaling proteins in tgNhe3(+/+), as expected, but all of these responses to ANG II were attenuated in tgNhe3(-/-) mice (P < 0.01). These results suggest that NHE3 in the kidney is necessary for maintaining normal blood pressure and fully developing ANG II-dependent hypertension.

Abstract
The renal mechanisms responsible for angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced hypertension remain incompletely understood. The present study tested the hypothesis that the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) is required for ANG II-induced hypertension in mice. Five groups of wild-type (Nhe3(+/+)) and Nhe3(-/-) mice were treated with vehicle or high pressor doses of ANG II (1.5 mg/kg/day ip, via minipump for 2 wk, or 10 pmol/min iv for 30 min). Under basal conditions, Nhe3(-/-) mice had significantly lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) and mean intra-arterial pressure (MAP) (P < 0.01), 24 h urine (P < 0.05), urinary Na(+) (P < 0.01) and urinary K(+) excretion (P < 0.01). In response to ANG II, SBP and MAP markedly increased in Nhe3(+/+) mice in a time-dependent manner, as expected (P < 0.01). However, these acute and chronic pressor responses to ANG II were significantly attenuated in Nhe3(-/-) mice (P < 0.01). Losartan blocked ANG II-induced hypertension in Nhe3(+/+) mice but induced marked mortality in Nhe3(-/-) mice. The attenuated pressor responses to ANG II in Nhe3(-/-) mice were associated with marked compensatory humoral and renal responses to genetic loss of intestinal and renal NHE3. These include elevated basal plasma ANG II and aldosterone and kidney ANG II levels, salt wasting from the intestines, increased renal AQP1, Na(+)/HCO3 (-), and Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase expression, and increased PKCα, mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK1/2, and glycogen synthase kinase 3αβ signaling proteins in the proximal tubules (P < 0.01). We concluded that NHE3 in proximal tubules of the kidney, along with NHE3 in intestines, is required for maintaining basal blood pressure as well as the full development of ANG II-induced hypertension.

Abstract
TGF-β1 is an important multifunctional cytokine with numerous protective effects on intestinal mucosa. The influence of TGF-β1 on serotonin transporter (SERT) activity, the critical mechanism regulating the extracellular availability of serotonin (5-HT), is not known. Current studies were designed to examine acute effects of TGF-β1 on SERT. Model human intestinal Caco-2 cells grown as monolayer’s or as cysts in 3D culture and ex vivo mouse model were utilized. Treatment of Caco-2 cells with TGF-β1 (10 ng/ml, 60 min) stimulated SERT activity (~2 fold, P<0.005). This stimulation of SERT function was dependent upon activation of TGF-β1 receptor (TGFRI) as SB-431542, a specific TGF-βRI inhibitor blocked the SERT stimulation. SERT activation in response to TGF-β1 was attenuated by inhibition of PI3K and occurred via enhanced recruitment of SERT-GFP to apical surface in a PI3K dependent manner. The exocytosis inhibitor brefeldin A (2.5 μM) attenuated the TGF-β1-mediated increase in SERT function. TGF-β1 increased the association of SERT with the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) syntaxin 3 (STX3) and promoted exocytosis of SERT. Caco-2 cells grown as cysts in 3D culture recapitulated the effects of TGF-β1 showing increased luminal staining of SERT. Ussing chamber studies revealed increase in 3H-5-HT uptake in mouse ileum treated ex vivo with TGF-β1 (10 ng/ml, 1h). These data demonstrate a novel mechanism rapidly regulating intestinal SERT via PI3K and STX3. Since decreased SERT is implicated in various gastro-intestinal disorders e.g IBD, IBS and diarrhea, understanding mechanisms stimulating SERT function by TGF-β1 offers a novel therapeutic strategy to treat GI disorders.

Abstract
This study aims to understand the extent to which modulation of the Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter NKCC2 differential splicing affects NaCl delivery to the macula densa. NaCl absorption by the thick ascending limb and macula densa cells is mediated by apical NKCC2. A recent study has indicated that differential splicing of NKCC2 is modulated by dietary salt (Schieβl IM, Rosenauer A, Kattler V, Minuth WW, Oppermann M, Castrop H. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 305: F1139-F1148, 2013). Given the markedly different ion affinities of its splice variants, modulation of NKCC2 differential splicing is believed to impact NaCl reabsorption. To assess the validity of that hypothesis, we have developed a mathematical model of macula densa cell transport and incorporated that cell model into a previously applied model of the thick ascending limb (Weinstein AM, Krahn TA. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 298: F525-F542, 2010). The macula densa model predicts a 27.4- and 13.1-mV depolarization of the basolateral membrane [as a surrogate for activation of tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF)] when luminal NaCl concentration is increased from 25 to 145 mM or luminal K(+) concentration is increased from 1.5 to 3.5 mM, respectively, consistent with experimental measurements. Simulations indicate that with luminal solute concentrations consistent with in vivo conditions near the macula densa, NKCC2 operates near its equilibrium state. Results also suggest that modulation of NKCC2 differential splicing by low salt, which induces a shift from NKCC2-A to NKCC2-B primarily in the cortical thick ascending limb and macula densa cells, significantly enhances salt reabsorption in the thick limb and reduces Na(+) and Cl(-) delivery to the macula densa by 3.7 and 12.5%, respectively. Simulation results also predict that the NKCC2 isoform shift hyperpolarizes the macula densa basolateral cell membrane, which, taken in isolation, may inhibit the release of the TGF signal. However, excessive early distal salt delivery and renal salt loss during a low-salt diet may be prevented by an asymmetric TGF response, which may be more sensitive to flow increases.

Impaired insulin signaling affects renal organic anion transporter 3 (Oat3) function in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. PLoS One 2014; 9:e96236.

Abstract
Organic anion transporter 3 (Oat3) is a major renal Oats expressed in the basolateral membrane of renal proximal tubule cells. We have recently reported decreases in renal Oat3 function and expression in diabetic rats and these changes were recovered after insulin treatment for four weeks. However, the mechanisms by which insulin restored these changes have not been elucidated. In this study, we hypothesized that insulin signaling mediators might play a crucial role in the regulation of renal Oat3 function. Experimental diabetic rats were induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg). One week after injection, animals showing blood glucose above 250 mg/dL were considered to be diabetic and used for the experiment in which insulin-treated diabetic rats were subcutaneously injected daily with insulin for four weeks. Estrone sulfate (ES) uptake into renal cortical slices was examined to reflect the renal Oat3 function. The results showed that pre-incubation with insulin for 30 min (short term) stimulated [3H]ES uptake into the renal cortical slices of normal control rats. In the untreated diabetic rats, pre-incubation with insulin for 30 min failed to stimulate renal Oat3 activity. The unresponsiveness of renal Oat3 activity to insulin in the untreated diabetic rats suggests the impairment of insulin signaling. Indeed, pre-incubation with phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase C zeta (PKCζ) inhibitors inhibited insulin-stimulated renal Oat3 activity. In addition, the expressions of PI3K, Akt and PKCζ in the renal cortex of diabetic rats were markedly decreased. Prolonged insulin treatment in diabetic rats restored these alterations toward normal levels. Our data suggest that the decreases in both function and expression of renal Oat3 in diabetes are associated with an impairment of renal insulin-induced Akt/PKB activation through PI3K/PKCζ/Akt/PKB signaling pathway.

Abstract
The Na+/H+ exchanger-3 (NHE3) belongs to the mammalian NHE protein family and catalyzes the electro-neutral exchange of extracellular sodium for intracellular proton across cellular membranes. Its transport function is of essential importance for the maintenance of the body's salt and water homeostasis as well as acid-base balance. Indeed, NHE3 activity is finely regulated by a variety of stimuli, both acutely and chronically, and its transport function is fundamental for a multiplicity of severe and world-wide infection-pathological conditions. This review aims to provide a concise overview of NHE3 physiology and discusses the role of NHE3 in clinical conditions of prominent importance, specifically in hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, heart failure, acute kidney injury, and diarrhea. Study of NHE3 function in models of these diseases has contributed to the deciphering of mechanisms that control the delicate ion balance disrupted in these disorders. The majority of the findings indicate that NHE3 transport function is activated before the onset of hypertension and inhibited thereafter; NHE3 transport function is also upregulated in diabetic nephropathy and heart failure, while it is reported to be downregulated in acute kidney injury and in diarrhea. The molecular mechanisms activated during these pathological conditions to regulate NHE3 transport function are examined with the aim of linking NHE3 dysfunction to the analyzed clinical disorders.

Abstract
The Na(+/)H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) is essential for HCO(3)(-) reabsorption in renal proximal tubules. The expression and function of NHE3 must adapt to acid-base conditions. The goal of this study was to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for higher proton secretion in proximal tubules during acidosis and to evaluate whether there are differences between metabolic and respiratory acidosis with regard to NHE3 modulation and, if so, to identify the relevant parameters that may trigger these distinct adaptive responses. We achieved metabolic acidosis by lowering HCO(3)(-) concentration in the cell culture medium and respiratory acidosis by increasing CO(2) tension in the incubator chamber. We found that cell-surface NHE3 expression was increased in response to both forms of acidosis. Mild (pH 7.21 ± 0.02) and severe (6.95 ± 0.07) metabolic acidosis increased mRNA levels, at least in part due to up-regulation of transcription, whilst mild (7.11 ± 0.03) and severe (6.86 ± 0.01) respiratory acidosis did not up-regulate NHE3 expression. Analyses of the Nhe3 promoter region suggested that the regulatory elements sensitive to metabolic acidosis are located between -466 and -153 bp, where two consensus binding sites for SP1, a transcription factor up-regulated in metabolic acidosis, were localised. We conclude that metabolic acidosis induces Nhe3 promoter activation, which results in higher mRNA and total protein level. At the plasma membrane surface, NHE3 expression was increased in metabolic and respiratory acidosis alike, suggesting that low pH is responsible for NHE3 displacement to the cell surface.

Abstract
Intercalated cells in the collecting duct system express V-type H(+)-ATPases which participate in acid extrusion, bicarbonate secretion, and chloride absorption depending on the specific subtype. The activity of H(+)-ATPases is regulated by acid-base status and several hormones, including angiotensin II and aldosterone. Angiotensin II stimulates chloride absorption mediated by pendrin in type B intercalated cells and this process is energized by the activity of H(+)-ATPases. Moreover, angiotensin II stimulates bicarbonate secretion by the connecting tubule (CNT) and early cortical collecting duct (CCD). In the present study we examined the effect of angiotensin II (10 nM) on H(+)-ATPase activity and localization in isolated mouse connecting tubules and cortical collecting ducts. Angiotensin II stimulated Na(+)-independent intracellular pH recovery about 2-3 fold, and this was abolished by the specific H(+)-ATPase inhibitor concanamycin. The effect of angiotensin II was mediated through type 1 angiotensin II receptors (AT(1)-receptors) because it could be blocked by saralasin. Stimulation of H(+)-ATPase activity required an intact microtubular network--it was completely inhibited by colchicine. Immunocytochemistry of isolated CNT/CCDs incubated in vitro with angiotensin II suggests enhanced membrane associated staining of H(+)-ATPases in pendrin expressing intercalated cells. In summary, angiotensin II stimulates H(+)-ATPases in CNT/CCD intercalated cells, and may contribute to the regulation of chloride absorption and bicarbonate secretion in this nephron segment.

Abstract
Although renin, the rate-limiting enzyme of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), was first discovered by Robert Tigerstedt and Bergman more than a century ago, the research on the RAS still remains stronger than ever. The RAS, once considered to be an endocrine system, is now widely recognized as dual (circulating and local/tissue) or multiple hormonal systems (endocrine, paracrine and intracrine). In addition to the classical renin/angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)/angiotensin II (Ang II)/Ang II receptor (AT₁/AT₂) axis, the prorenin/(Pro)renin receptor (PRR)/MAP kinase axis, the ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas receptor axis, and the Ang IV/AT₄/insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) axis have recently been discovered. Furthermore, the roles of the evolving RAS have been extended far beyond blood pressure control, aldosterone synthesis, and body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. Indeed, novel actions and underlying signaling mechanisms for each member of the RAS in physiology and diseases are continuously uncovered. However, many challenges still remain in the RAS research field despite of more than one century's research effort. It is expected that the research on the expanded RAS will continue to play a prominent role in cardiovascular, renal and hypertension research. The purpose of this article is to review the progress recently being made in the RAS research, with special emphasis on the local RAS in the kidney and the newly discovered prorenin/PRR/MAP kinase axis, the ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas receptor axis, the Ang IV/AT₄/IRAP axis, and intracrine/intracellular Ang II. The improved knowledge of the expanded RAS will help us better understand how the classical renin/ACE/Ang II/AT₁ receptor axis, extracellular and/or intracellular origin, interacts with other novel RAS axes to regulate blood pressure and cardiovascular and kidney function in both physiological and diseased states.

Abstract
Angiotensin (ANG) II via AT1 receptors (AT1Rs) maintains sodium homeostasis by regulating renal sodium transporters including Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) in a biphasic manner. Low-ANG II concentration stimulates whereas high concentrations inhibit NHE3 activity. Oxidative stress has been shown to upregulate AT1R function that could modulate the ANG II-mediated NHE3 regulation. This study was designed to identify the signaling pathways responsible for ANG II-mediated biphasic regulation of proximal tubular NHE3 and the effect of oxidative stress on this phenomenon. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were chronically treated with a pro-oxidant L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) with and without an antioxidant tempol in tap water for 3 wk. BSO-treated rats exhibited oxidative stress and high blood pressure. At low concentration (1 pM) ANG II increased NHE3 activity in proximal tubules from all animals. However, in BSO-treated rats, the stimulation was more robust and was normalized by tempol treatment. ANG II (1 pM)-mediated NHE3 activation was abolished by AT1R blocker, intracellular Ca(2+) chelator, and inhibitors of phospholipase C (PLC) and Ca(2+)-dependent calmodulin (CaM) but it was insensitive to Giα and protein kinase C inhibitors or AT2R antagonist. A high concentration of ANG II (1 μM) inhibited NHE3 activity in control and tempol-treated rats. However, in BSO-treated rats, ANG II (1 μM) continued to induce NHE3 stimulation. Tempol restored the inhibitory effect of ANG II (1 μM) in BSO-treated rats. The inhibitory effect of ANG II (1 μM) involved AT1R-dependent, cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) activation and was independent of AT2 receptor and nitric oxide signaling. We conclude that ANG II stimulates NHE3 via AT1R-PLC-CaM pathway and inhibits NHE3 by AT1R-PKG activation. Oxidative stress impaired ANG II-mediated NHE3 biphasic response in that stimulation was observed at both high- and low-ANG II concentration.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (Ang II) exerts an acute bimodal effect on proximal tubule NHE3: while low doses stimulate the exchanger, high doses inhibit it. In the present study, we have investigated the chronic effects of Ang II on NHE3 expression and transcriptional regulation. Treatment of a tubular epithelial cell line, OKP, with Ang II 10(-11)M significantly increased NHE protein expression and mRNA levels, without evidence of bimodal effect. No change in mRNA half-life was detected, but transient transfection studies showed a significant increase in NHE3 promoter activity. Binding sites for Sp1/Egr-1 and AP2 transcription factors of the NHE3 proximal promoter were mutated and we observed that the Sp1/Egr-1 binding site integrity is necessary for Ang II stimulatory effects. Inhibition of cytochrome P450, PI3K, PKA and MAPK pathways prevented the Ang II stimulatory effect on the NHE3 promoter activity. Taking all the results together, our data reveal that chronic Ang II treatment exerts a stimulatory effect on NHE3 expression and promoter activity. The Ang II up-regulation of the NHE3 promoter activity appears to involve the Sp1/Egr-1 binding site and the interplay of several intracellular signaling pathways.

Abstract
To characterize gene expression networks linked to AT(1) angiotensin receptors in the kidney, we carried out genome-wide transcriptional analysis of RNA from kidneys of wild-type (WT) and AT(1A) receptor-deficient mice (KOs) at baseline and after 2 days of angiotensin II infusion (1,000 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1)). At baseline, 405 genes were differentially expressed (>1.5×) between WT and KO kidneys. Of these, >80% were upregulated in the KO group including genes involved in inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell proliferation. After 2 days of angiotensin II infusion in WT mice, expression of ≈805 genes was altered (18% upregulated, 82% repressed). Genes in metabolism and ion transport pathways were upregulated while there was attenuated expression of genes protective against oxidative stress including glutathione synthetase and mitochondrial superoxide dismutase 2. Angiotensin II infusion had little effect on blood pressure in KOs. Nonetheless, expression of >250 genes was altered in kidneys from KO mice during angiotensin II infusion; 14% were upregulated, while 86% were repressed including genes involved in immune responses, angiogenesis, and glutathione metabolism. Between WT and KO kidneys during angiotensin II infusion, 728 genes were differentially expressed; 10% were increased and 90% were decreased in the WT group. Differentially regulated pathways included those involved in ion transport, immune responses, metabolism, apoptosis, cell proliferation, and oxidative stress. This genome-wide assessment should facilitate identification of critical distal pathways linked to blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (ANG II) stimulates renal tubular reabsorption of NaCl by targeting Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. We have shown previously that inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor-binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IRBIT) plays a critical role in stimulation of NHE3 in response to elevated intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). In this study, we investigated the role of IRBIT in mediating NHE3 activation by ANG II. IRBIT is abundantly expressed in the proximal tubules where NHE3 is located. ANG II at physiological concentrations stimulates NHE3 transport activity in a model proximal tubule cell line. ANG II-induced activation of NHE3 was abrogated by knockdown of IRBIT, whereas overexpression of IRBIT enhanced the effect of ANG II on NHE3. ANG II transiently increased binding of IRBIT to NHE3 at 5 min but became dissociated by 45 min. In comparison, it took at least 15 min of ANG II treatment for an increase in NHE3 activity and NHE3 surface expression. The stimulation of NHE3 by ANG II was dependent on changes in [Ca(2+)](i) and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases II. Inhibition of CaMKII completely blocked the ANG II-induced binding of IRBIT to NHE3 and the increase in NHE3 surface abundance. Several serine residues of IRBIT are thought to be important for IRBIT binding. Mutations of Ser-68, Ser-71, and Ser-74 of IRBIT decreased binding of IRBIT to NHE3 and its effect on NHE3 activity. In conclusion, our current findings demonstrate that IRBIT is critically involved in mediating activation of NHE3 by ANG II via a Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases II-dependent pathway.

Abstract
The angiotensin receptor-associated protein (Atrap) interacts with angiotensin II (AngII) type 1 (AT1) receptors and facilitates their internalization in vitro, but little is known about the function of Atrap in vivo. Here, we detected Atrap expression in several organs of wild-type mice; the highest expression was in the kidney where it localized to the proximal tubule, particularly the brush border. There was no Atrap expression in the renal vasculature or juxtaglomerular cells. We generated Atrap-deficient (Atrap-/-) mice, which were viable and seemed grossly normal. Mean systolic BP was significantly higher in Atrap-/- mice compared with wild-type mice. Dose-response relationships of arterial BP after acute AngII infusion were similar in both genotypes. Plasma volume was significantly higher and plasma renin concentration was markedly lower in Atrap-/- mice compared with wild-type mice. (125)I-AngII binding showed enhanced surface expression of AT1 receptors in the renal cortex of Atrap-/- mice, accompanied by increased carboanhydrase-sensitive proximal tubular function. In summary, Atrap-/- mice have increased arterial pressure and plasma volume. Atrap seems to modulate volume status by acting as a negative regulator of AT1 receptors in the renal tubules.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (ANG II) stimulates proximal tubule (PT) sodium and water reabsorption. We showed that treating rats acutely with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor captopril decreases PT salt and water reabsorption and provokes rapid redistribution of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3), Na(+)/Pi cotransporter 2 (NaPi2), and associated proteins out of the microvilli. The aim of the present study was to determine whether acute ANG II infusion increases the abundance of PT NHE3, NaPi2, and associated proteins in the microvilli available for reabsorbing NaCl. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were infused with a dose of captopril (12 microg/min for 20 min) that increased PT flow rate approximately 20% with no change in blood pressure (BP) or glomerular filtration rate (GFR). When ANG II (20 ng x kg(-1) x min(-1) for 20 min) was added to the captopril infusate, PT volume flow rate returned to baseline without changing BP or GFR. After captopril, NHE3 was localized to the base of the microvilli and NaPi2 to subapical cytoplasmic vesicles; after 20 min ANG II, both NHE3 and NaPi2 redistributed into the microvilli, assayed by confocal microscopy and density gradient fractionation. Additional PT proteins that redistributed into low-density microvilli-enriched membranes in response to ANG II included myosin VI, DPPIV, NHERF-1, ezrin, megalin, vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, aminopeptidase N, and clathrin. In summary, in response to 20 min ANG II in the absence of a change in BP or GFR, multiple proteins traffic into the PT brush-border microvilli where they likely contribute to the rapid increase in PT salt and water reabsorption.

Abstract
Although phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is essential for several cellular signal transductions, its role in the regulation of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) activity in intestinal epithelial cells is poorly understood. Therefore, the possible involvement of PI3K in the regulation of cAMP- and cGMP-induced duodenal epithelial CFTR activation was investigated in the present study. Forskolin and 8-bromoguanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-Br-cGMP) markedly stimulated duodenal mucosal HCO(3)(-) secretion and short-circuit current (I(sc)) in CFTR wild-type mice, which was significantly inhibited by CFTR(inh)-172, a highly potent and specific CFTR inhibitor. Forskolin and 8-Br-cGMP failed to stimulate duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion and I(sc) in CFTR knockout mice. Moreover, forskolin- and 8-Br-cGMP-stimulated duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion and I(sc) were significantly reduced by wortmannin and LY294002, two selective PI3K inhibitors that are structurally and mechanistically different. Forskolin and 8-Br-cGMP induced CFTR phosphorylation and shifted CFTR proteins to the plasma membrane of duodenal epithelial cells, which were inhibited by wortmannin and LY294002. Forskolin and 8-Br-cGMP not only increased the activity of PI3K but also induced the phosphorylation of Akt, a signaling molecule downstream of PI3K, which were again inhibited by wortmannin and LY294002. Together, our results obtained from functional, biochemical, and morphological studies demonstrate that PI3K pathway plays an important role in the regulation of cAMP- and cGMP-induced duodenal epithelial CFTR channel activity and intracellular trafficking.

Abstract
SUMMARY
NHE3 is a sodium–proton exchanger expressed predominantly in the apical membrane of renal and intestinal epithelia, where it plays a key role in salt and fluid absorption and pH homeostasis. It performs these functions through the exchange of luminal sodium for cytosolic protons. Acute regulation of NHE3 function is mediated by altering the total number of exchangers in the plasma membrane as well as their individual activity. Traffic between endomembrane and plasmalemmal pools of NHE3 dictates the density of exchangers available at the cell surface. The activity of the plasmalemmal pool, however,is not fixed and can be altered by the association with modifier proteins, by post-translational alterations (such as cAMP-mediated phosphorylation) and possibly also via interaction with specific plasmalemmal phospholipids. Interestingly, association with cytoskeletal components affects both levels of regulation, tethering NHE3 molecules at the surface and altering their intrinsic activity. This paper reviews the role of proteins and lipids in the modulation of NHE3 function.

Abstract
The proximal tubule is critical for whole-organism volume and acid-base homeostasis by reabsorbing filtered water, NaCl, bicarbonate, and citrate, as well as by excreting acid in the form of hydrogen and ammonium ions and producing new bicarbonate in the process. Filtered organic solutes such as amino acids, oligopeptides, and proteins are also retrieved by the proximal tubule. Luminal membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchangers either directly mediate or indirectly contribute to each of these processes. Na(+)/H(+) exchangers are a family of secondary active transporters with diverse tissue and subcellular distributions. Two isoforms, NHE3 and NHE8, are expressed at the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule. NHE3 is the prevalent isoform in adults, is the most extensively studied, and is tightly regulated by a large number of agonists and physiological conditions acting via partially defined molecular mechanisms. Comparatively little is known about NHE8, which is highly expressed at the lumen of the neonatal proximal tubule and is mostly intracellular in adults. This article discusses the physiology of proximal Na(+)/H(+) exchange, the multiple mechanisms of NHE3 regulation, and the reciprocal relationship between NHE3 and NHE8 at the lumen of the proximal tubule.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiotensin II (AII) effects on intestinal Na+ transport may be multifactorial. To determine if AII might have a direct effect on intestinal epithelial Na+ transport, we investigated its actions on Na+ transport in human intestinal epithelial Caco2BBE cells. RESULTS AII increased apical (brush border) sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE)-3, but not NHE2, activity within one hour. Similarly, only apical membrane NHE3 abundance increased at 1-2 hours without any change in total NHE3 protein abundance. From 4-48 hours, AII stimulated progressively larger increases in apical NHE3 activity and surface abundance, which was associated with increases in NHE3 protein expression. At 4-24 hours, NHE3 mRNA increases over baseline expression, suggesting increased gene transcription. This was supported by AII induced increases in rat NHE3 gene promoter-reporter activity. AII induction of NHE3 was blocked by the AII type I receptor antagonist losartan. Acute changes in AII-induced increases in NHE3 exocytosis were blocked by a phospholipase C inhibitor, an arachidonic acid cytochrome P450 epoxygenase inhibitor, as well as phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) inhibitors and Akt inhibitor, partially blocked by a metalloproteinase inhibitor and an EGF (epidermal growth factor) receptor kinase inhibitor, but not affected by an inhibitor of MEK-1 (MAPKK-1, mitogen activated protein kinase kinase-1). CONCLUSION We conclude that angiotensin II has a direct role in regulating intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption which may contribute to its overall effects in regulation systemic volume and blood pressure. AII activates several key signaling pathways that induce acute and chronic changes in NHE3 membrane trafficking and gene transcription.

Abstract
The formation of axons and dendrites and maintenance of the neuron's vastly expanded surface require the continuous addition of new membrane. This is achieved by membrane synthesis through the secretory pathway followed by regulated vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane, typically in the distal neurite. However, it is far from simple: multiple distinct membrane carriers are used to target specific membrane domains, dendrites seem to operate semi-autonomously from the rest of the neuron, and exocytosis for membrane expansion is different from that for release of synaptic vesicles. Current knowledge of this process and its implications for neuronal development, function and repair are reviewed.

Abstract
The present study tested the hypothesis that intracellular ANG II directly induces transcriptional effects by stimulating AT(1a) receptors in the nucleus of rat renal cortical cells. Intact nuclei were freshly isolated from the rat renal cortex, and transcriptional responses to ANG II were studied using in vitro RNA transcription assays and semiquantitative RT-PCR. High-power phase-contrast micrographs showed that isolated nuclei were encircled by an intact nuclear envelope and stained strongly by the DNA marker 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole, but not by the membrane or endosomal markers. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled ANG II and [(125)I]Val(5)-ANG II binding confirmed the presence of ANG II receptors in the nuclei with a predominance of AT(1) receptors. RT-PCR showed that AT(1a) mRNA expression was threefold greater than AT(1b) receptor mRNAs in these nuclei. In freshly isolated nuclei, ANG II increased in vitro [alpha-(32)P]CTP incorporation in a concentration-dependent manner, and the effect was confirmed by autoradiography and RNA electrophoresis. ANG II markedly increased in vitro transcription of mRNAs for transforming growth factor-beta1 by 143% (P < 0.01), macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 by 89% (P < 0.01), and the sodium and hydrogen exchanger-3 by 110% (P < 0.01). These transcriptional effects of ANG II on the nuclei were completely blocked by the AT(1) receptor antagonist losartan (P < 0.01). By contrast, ANG II had no effects on transcription of angiotensinogen and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNAs. Because these transcriptional effects of ANG II in isolated nuclei were induced by ANG II in the absence of cell surface receptor-mediated signaling and completely blocked by losartan, we concluded that ANG II may directly stimulate nuclear AT(1a) receptors to induce transcriptional responses that are associated with tubular epithelial sodium transport, cellular growth and hypertrophy, and proinflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Exposure to an acid load increases apical membrane Na+/H+ antiporter (NHE3) activity, a process that involves exocytic trafficking of the transporter to the apical membrane. We have previously shown that an intact microfilament structure is required for this exocytic process (Yang X, Amemiya M, Peng Y, Moe OW, Preisig PA, Alpern RJ. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 279: C410–C419, 2000). The present studies demonstrate that acid-induced stress fiber formation is required for stimulation of NHE3 activity. Formation of stress fibers is associated with acid-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and increases in protein abundance of two focal adhesion proteins, p125FAK and paxillin. The Rho kinase inhibitor Y27632 completely blocks acid-induced stress fiber formation and the increases in apical membrane NHE3 abundance and activity, but it has no effect on acid-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK or paxillin. Herbimycin A completely blocks acid-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK and paxillin but only partially blocks stress fiber formation and NHE3 activation. These studies demonstrate that Rho kinase mediates acid-induced stress fiber formation, which is required for NHE3 exocytosis, and increases in NHE3 activity. Acid-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion proteins p125FAK and paxillin is not Rho kinase dependent. Thus these two acid-mediated effects are associated, yet independent processes.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (Ang II) has powerful sodium-retaining, growth-promoting and pro- inflammatory properties in addition to its physiological role in maintaining body salt and fluid balance and blood pressure homeostasis. Increased circulating and local tissue Ang II is one of the most important factors contributing to the development of sodium and fluid retention, hypertension and target organ damage. The importance of Ang II in the pathogenesis of hypertension and target organ injury is best demonstrated by the effectiveness of angiotensin- converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and AT1-receptor antagonists in treating hypertension and progressive renal disease including diabetic nephropathy. The detrimental effects of Ang II are mediated primarily by the AT1-receptor, while the AT2-receptor may oppose the AT1-receptor. The classical view of the AT1-receptor-mediated effects of Ang II is that the agonist binds its receptors at the cell surface, and following receptor phosphorylation, activates downstream signal transduction pathways and intracellular responses. However, evidence is emerging that binding of Ang II to its cell surface AT1-receptors also activates endocytotic (or internalisation) processes that promote trafficking of both the effector and the receptor into intracellular compartments. Whether internalised Ang II has important intracrine and signalling actions is not well understood. The purpose of this article is to review recent advances in Ang II research with focus on the mechanisms underlying high levels of intracellular Ang II in proximal tubule cells and the contribution of receptor-mediated endocytosis of extracellular Ang II. Further attention is devoted to the question whether intracellular and/or internalised Ang II plays a physiological role by activating cytoplasmic or nuclear receptors in proximal tubule cells. This information may aid future development of drugs to prevent and treat Ang II-induced target organ injury in cardiovascular and renal diseases by blocking intracellular and/or nuclear actions of Ang II.

Abstract
Direct phosphorylation of sodium hydrogen exchanger type 3 (NHE3) is a well-established physiological phenomenon; however, the exact role of NHE3 phosphorylation in its regulation remains unclear. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether NHE3 phosphorylation at serines 552 and 605 is physiologically regulated in vivo and, if so, whether changes in phosphorylation at these sites are tightly coupled to changes in transport activity. To this end, we directly compared PKA-induced NHE3 inhibition with site-specific changes in NHE3 phosphorylation in vivo and in vitro. In vivo, PKA was activated using an intravenous infusion of parathyroid hormone in Sprague-Dawley rats. In vitro, PKA was activated directly in opossum kidney (OKP) cells using forskolin and IBMX. NHE3 activity was assayed in microvillar membrane vesicles in the rat model and by 22Na uptake in the OKP cell model. In both cases, NHE3 phosphorylation at serines 552 and 605 was determined using previously characterized monoclonal phosphospecific antibodies directed to these sites. In vivo, we found dramatic changes in NHE3 phosphorylation at serines 552 and 605 with PKA activation but no corresponding alteration in NHE3 activity. This dissociation between NHE3 phosphorylation and activity was further verified in OKP cells in which phosphorylation clearly preceded transport inhibition. We conclude that although phosphorylation of NHE3 at serines 552 and 605 is regulated by PKA both in vivo and in vitro, phosphorylation of these sites does not directly alter Na+/H+ exchange activity.

Abstract
NHE3 is the brush-border (BB) Na+/H+exchanger of small intestine, colon, and renal proximal tubule which is involved in large amounts of neutral Na+absorption. NHE3 is a highly regulated transporter, being both stimulated and inhibited by signaling that mimics the postprandial state. It also undergoes downregulation in diarrheal diseases as well as changes in renal disorders. For this regulation, NHE3 exists in large, multiprotein complexes in which it associates with at least nine other proteins. This review deals with short-term regulation of NHE3 and the identity and function of its recognized interacting partners and the multiprotein complexes in which NHE3 functions.

Abstract
Final urinary acidification is mediated by the action of vacuolar H(+)-ATPases expressed in acid-secretory type A intercalated cells (A-IC) in the collecting duct. Angiotensin II (AngII) has profound effects on renal acid-base transport in the proximal tubule, distal tubule, and collecting duct. This study investigated the effects on vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity in A-IC in freshly isolated mouse outer medullary collecting ducts. AngII (10 nM) stimulated concanamycin-sensitive vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity in A-IC in freshly isolated mouse outer medullary collecting ducts via AT(1) receptors, which were also detected immunohistochemically in A-IC. AngII increased intracellular Ca(2+) levels transiently. Chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) with BAPTA and depletion of endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) stores prevented the stimulatory effect on H(+)-ATPase activity. The effect of AngII on H(+)-ATPase activity was abolished by inhibitors of small G proteins and phospholipase C, by blockers of Ca(2+)-dependent and -independent isoforms of protein kinase C and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2. Disruption of the microtubular network and cleavage of cellubrevin attenuated the stimulation. Finally, AngII failed to stimulate residual vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity in A-IC from mice that were deficient for the B1 subunit of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase. Thus, AngII presents a potent stimulus for vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity in outer medullary collecting duct IC and requires trafficking of stimulatory proteins or vacuolar H(+)-ATPases. The B1 subunit is indispensable for the stimulation by AngII, and its importance for stimulation of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity may contribute to the inappropriate urinary acidification that is seen in patients who have distal renal tubular acidosis and mutations in this subunit.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated endocytosis of extracellular ANG II has been suggested to play an important role in the regulation of proximal tubule cell (PTC) function. Using immortalized rabbit PTCs as an in vitro cell culture model, we tested the hypothesis that extracellular ANG II is taken up by PTCs through angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT(1); or AT(1a)) receptor-mediated endocytosis and that inhibition of ANG II endocytosis using a selective AT(1) receptor small-interfering RNA (siRNA; AT(1)R siRNA) or endocytotic inhibitors exerts a physiological effect on total and apical sodium and hydrogen exchanger isoform 3 (NHE-3) protein abundance. Western blots and live cell imaging with FITC-labeled ANG II confirmed that transfection of PTCs with a human specific AT(1)R siRNA for 48 h selectively knocked down AT(1) receptor protein by 76 +/- 5% (P < 0.01), whereas transfection with a scrambled siRNA had little effect. In nontransfected PTCs, exposure to extracellular ANG II (1 nM) for 60 min at 37 degrees C increased intracellular ANG II accumulation by 67% (control: 566 +/- 55 vs. ANG II: 943 +/- 160 pg/mg protein, P < 0.05) and induced mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation (163 +/- 15% of control, P < 0.01). AT(1)R siRNA reduced ANG II endocytosis to a level similar to losartan, which blocks cell surface AT(1) receptors (557 +/- 37 pg/mg protein, P < 0.05 vs. ANG II), or to colchicine, which disrupts cytoskeleton microtubules (613 +/- 12 pg/mg protein, P < 0.05 vs. ANG II). AT(1)R siRNA, losartan, and colchicine all attenuated ANG II-induced ERK1/2 activation and total cell lysate and apical membrane NHE-3 abundance. The scrambled siRNA had no effect on ANG II endocytosis, ERK1/2 activation, or NHE-3 expression. These results suggest that AT(1) receptor-mediated endocytosis of extracellular ANG II may regulate proximal tubule sodium transport by increasing total and apical NHE-3 proteins.

Abstract
In the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) angiotensin II (Ang II) modulates fluid and electrolyte transport through at least two pharmacologically distinct receptor subtypes: AT(1) and AT(2). Development of cell lines that lack these receptors are potentially useful models to probe the complex cellular details of Ang II regulation. To this end, angiotensin receptor- deficient mice were bred with an Immortomouse(R), which harbors a thermolabile SV40 large-T antigen (Tag). S1 PCT segments from kidneys of F(2) mice were microdissected, placed in culture, and maintained under conditions that enhanced cell growth, i.e., promoted Tag expression and thermostability. Three different types of angiotensin receptor-deficient cell lines, (AT(1A) [-/-], Tag [+/-]), (AT(1B) [-/-], Tag [+/-]), and (AT(1A) [-/-], AT(1B) [-/-], Tag [+/+]), as well as wild type cell lines were generated. Screening and characterization, which were conducted under culture conditions that promoted cellular differentiation, included: measurements of transepithelial transport, such as basal monolayer short-circuit current (Isc; -3 to 3 microA/cm2), basal monolayer conductance (G, 2 to 10 mS/cm2), Na3(+)-phosphate cotransport (DeltaIsc of 2 to 3 microA/cm(2) at 1 mM), and Na(3)(+)-succinate cotransport (DeltaIsc of 1 to 9 microA/cm(2) at 2 mM). Morphology of cell monolayers showed an extensive brush border, well-defined tight junctions, and primary cilia. Receptor functionality was assessed by Ang II-stimulated beta-arrestin 2 translocation and showed an Ang II-mediated response in wild type but not (AT(1A) [-/ -], AT(1B) [-/-]) cells. Cell lines were amplified, yielding a virtually unlimited supply of highly differentiated, transport-competent, angiotensin receptor-deficient PCT cell lines.

Abstract
In response to volume expansion, red blood cells of the little skate (Raja erinacea) initially swell and then release small organic compounds and osmotically obligated water in what is called a regulatory volume decrease (RVD) to restore cell volume. One of the major intracellular solutes lost during this process is the non-metabolized beta amino acid taurine. This hypoosmotic-induced increase in cell taurine permeability requires the anion exchanger, skAE1. The abundance of this transporter increases on the surface plasma membrane by a process of exocytosis. The second-messenger pathways involved in exocytosis of skAE1 were investigated with the use of inhibitors which affect membrane trafficking. Hypoosmotic-stimulated taurine uptake was significantly decreased by 42% with wortmannin, a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase) inhibitor. Additional evidence for the involvement of PI3K was obtained with a second inhibitor, LY294002, which decreased the hypoosmotic-stimulated taurine uptake by 28%. The state of actin is also involved, as the actin filament depolymerizer latrunculin B decreased hypoosmotic-stimulated taurine uptake by approximately 40%. Although hypoosmotic conditions did not stimulate changes in the distribution of actin between filamentous and globular forms, latrunculin stimulated a decrease in filamentous actin and increase in globular actin in both isoosmotic and hypoosmotic conditions. Disruptors of other potential cytoskeletal factors (myosin, kinesin, dynein, and microtubules) did not affect taurine uptake. The present results suggest that the exocytosis of skAE1 stimulated by hyposmotic-induced cell volume expansion requires activation of PI3 kinase and is regulated by the state of actin filaments.
