Salinity-dependent modulation by protein kinases and the FXYD2 peptide of gill (Na +, K +)-ATPase activity in the freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda, Palaemonidae).

Abstract
The geographical distribution of aquatic crustaceans is determined by ambient factors like salinity that modulate their biochemistry, physiology, behavior, reproduction, development and growth. We investigated the effects of exogenous pig FXYD2 peptide and endogenous protein kinases A and C on gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity, and characterized enzyme kinetic properties in a freshwater population of Macrobrachium amazonicum in fresh water (<0.5 ‰ salinity) or acclimated to 21 ‰S. Stimulation by FXYD2 peptide and inhibition by endogenous kinase phosphorylation are salinity-dependent. While without effect in shrimps in fresh water, the FXYD2 peptide stimulated activity in salinity-acclimated shrimps by ≈50 %. PKA-mediated phosphorylation inhibited gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity by 85 % in acclimated shrimps while PKC phosphorylation markedly inhibited enzyme activity in freshwater- and salinity-acclimated shrimps. The (Na+, K+)-ATPase in salinity-acclimated shrimp gills hydrolyzed ATP at a Vmax of 54.9 ± 1.8 nmol min-1 mg-1 protein, corresponding to ≈60 % that of freshwater shrimps. Mg2+ affinity increased with salinity acclimation while K+ affinity decreased. (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase activity increased while V(H+)- and Na+- or K+-stimulated activities decreased on salinity acclimation. The 120-kDa immunoreactive band expressed in salinity-acclimated shrimps suggests nonspecific α-subunit phosphorylation by PKA and/or PKC. These alterations in (Na+, K+)-ATPase kinetics in salinity-acclimated M. amazonicum may result from regulatory mechanisms mediated by phosphorylation via protein kinases A and C and the FXYD2 peptide rather than through the expression of a different α-subunit isoform. This is the first demonstration of gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase regulation by protein kinases in freshwater shrimps during salinity challenge.

Abstract
The pathological elevation of the active thyroid hormone (T3) level results in the manifestation of hyperthyroidism, which is associated with alterations in the differentiation and contractile function of skeletal muscle (SKM). Myosin phosphatase (MP) is a major cellular regulator that hydrolyzes the phosphoserine of phosphorylated myosin II light chain. MP consists of an MYPT1/2 regulatory and a protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit. Smoothelin-like protein 1 (SMTNL1) is known to inhibit MP by directly binding to MP as well as by suppressing the expression of MYPT1 at the transcriptional level. Supraphysiological vs. physiological concentration of T3 were applied on C2C12 myoblasts and differentiated myotubes in combination with the overexpression of SMTNL1 to assess the role and regulation of MP under these conditions. In non-differentiated myoblasts, MP included MYPT1 in the holoenzyme complex and its expression and activity was regulated by SMTNL1, affecting the phosphorylation level of MLC20 assessed using semi-quantitative Western blot analysis. SMTNL1 negatively influenced the migration and cytoskeletal remodeling of myoblasts measured by high content screening. In contrast, in myotubes, the expression of MYPT2 but not MYPT1 increased in a T3-dependent and SMTNL1-independent manner. T3 treatment combined with SMTNL1 overexpression impeded the activity of MP. In addition, MP interacted with Na+/K+-ATPase and dephosphorylated its inhibitory phosphorylation sites, identifying this protein as a novel MP substrate. These findings may help us gain a better understanding of myopathy, muscle weakness and the disorder of muscle regeneration in hyperthyroid patients.

Abstract
Background Previous studies demonstrated that angiotensin (Ang) III, not Ang II, is the predominant endogenous agonist for Ang type‐2 receptor (AT2R)‐induced natriuresis in normal rats, and that hypertensive 12‐week‐old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) lack natriuretic responses to Ang III. This study tested whether prehypertensive SHR already have defective Ang III‐induced natriuresis and determined possible mechanisms. Methods and Results Female and male normotensive 4‐week‐old SHR and Wistar Kyoto rats were studied after 24‐hour systemic AT1R blockade. Left kidneys received 30 minute renal interstitial infusions of vehicle followed by Ang III (3.5, 7.0, 14, and 28 nmol/kg per min; each dose for 30 minutes). Right kidneys received vehicle infusions. In 4‐week‐old Wistar Kyoto rats, renal interstitial Ang III increased urine sodium (Na+) excretion but failed to induce natriuresis in 4‐week‐old SHR. Renal Ang III levels were similar between Wistar Kyoto rats and SHR, making increased Ang III degradation as a possible cause for defective natriuresis in SHR unlikely. In Wistar Kyoto rats, renal interstitial Ang III induced translocation of AT2Rs to apical plasma membranes of renal proximal tubule cells. Simultaneously, Ang III induced retraction of the major Na+ transporter Na+‐H+ exchanger‐3 (NHE‐3) from apical membranes and internalization of Na+/K+ATPase (NKA) from basolateral membranes of renal proximal tubule cells. Consistent with NHE‐3 and NKA retraction, Ang III increased pSer552‐NHE‐3 and decreased pSer23‐NKA. In contrast, in SHR, intrarenal Ang III failed to induce AT2R translocation, NHE‐3 or NKA retraction, pSer552‐NHE‐3 phosphorylation, or pSer23‐NKA dephosphorylation. Conclusions These results indicate impaired Ang III/AT2R signaling as a possible primary defect in prehypertensive SHR. See Editorial Zhuo and Li

Abstract
RATIONALE Previous studies identified a defect in Ang III (angiotensin III [des-aspartyl1-angiotensin II])-elicited AT2R (Ang type-2 receptor)-mediated natriuresis in renal proximal tubule cells of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). OBJECTIVE This study aimed to delineate in prehypertensive SHR kidneys the receptor or postreceptor defect causing impaired AT2R signaling and renal sodium (Na+) retention by utilizing the selective AT2R agonist compound-21 (C-21). METHODS AND RESULTS Female 4-week-old Wistar Kyoto and SHR rats were studied after 24-hour systemic AT1R (Ang II type-1 receptor) blockade. Left kidneys received 30-minute renal interstitial infusions of vehicle followed by C-21 (20, 40, and 60 ng/[kg·min], each dose 30 minutes). Right kidneys received vehicle infusions. In Wistar Kyoto, C-21 dose-dependently increased urine Na+ excretion from 0.023±0.01 to 0.064±0.02, 0.087±0.01, and 0.089±0.01 µmol/min (P=0.008, P<0.0001, and P<0.0001, respectively) and renal interstitial fluid levels of AT2R downstream signaling molecule cGMP (cyclic guanosine 3',5' monophosphate) from 0.91±0.3 to 3.1±1.0, 5.9±1.2 and 5.3±0.5 fmol/mL (P=nonsignificant, P<0.0001, and P<0.0001, respectively). In contrast, C-21 did not increase urine Na+ excretion or renal interstitial cGMP in SHR. Mean arterial pressure was slightly higher in SHR but within the normotensive range and unaffected by C-21. In Wistar Kyoto, but not SHR, C-21 induced AT2R translocation to apical plasma membranes of renal proximal tubule cells, internalization/inactivation of NHE-3 (sodium-hydrogen exchanger-3) and Na+/K+ATPase (sodium-potassium-atpase) and phosphorylation of AT2R-cGMP downstream signaling molecules Src (Src family kinase), ERK (extracellular signal-related kinase), and VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein). To test whether cGMP could bypass the natriuretic defect in SHR, we infused 8-bromo-cGMP. This restored natriuresis, Na+ transporter internalization/inactivation, and Src and VASP phosphorylation, but not apical plasma membrane AT2R recruitment. In contrast, 8-bromo-cAMP administration had no effect on natriuresis or AT2R recruitment in SHR. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate a primary renal proximal tubule cell AT2R natriuretic defect in SHR that may contribute to the development of hypertension. Since the defect is abrogated by exogenous intrarenal cGMP, the renal cGMP pathway may represent a viable target for the treatment of hypertension.

Abstract
In oviparous animals, vitellogenesis is prerequisite to egg production and embryonic growth after oviposition. For successful insect vitellogenesis and oogenesis, vitellogenin (Vg) synthesized in the fat body (homologue to vertebrate liver and adipose tissue) must pass through the intercellular channels, a condition known as patency in the follicular epithelium, to reach the surface of oocytes. This process is controlled by juvenile hormone (JH) in many insect species, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Previous work has suggested the possible involvement of Na+/K+-ATPase in patency initiation, but again, the regulatory cascade of Na+/K+-ATPase for patency initiation has been lacking. Using the migratory locust Locusta migratoria as a model system, we report here that RNAi-mediated knockdown of gene coding for Na+/K+-ATPase, inhibition of its phosphorylation, or suppression of its activity causes loss of patency, resulting in blocked Vg uptake, arrested oocyte maturation, and impaired ovarian growth. JH triggers G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), phospholipase C (PLC), inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R), and protein kinase C (PKC) to phosphorylate Na+/K+-ATPase α-subunit at amino acid residue Ser8, consequently activating Na+/K+-ATPase for the induction of patency in vitellogenic follicular epithelium. Our results thus point to a previously unidentified mechanism by which JH induces the phosphorylation and activation of Na+/K+-ATPase via a signaling cascade of GPCR, RTK, PLC, IP3R, and PKC. The findings advance our understanding of JH regulation in insect vitellogenesis and oogenesis.

Abstract
The catalytic α-subunits of both the Na+,K+-ATPase and the gastric H+,K+-ATPase possess lysine-rich N-termini which project into the cytoplasm. Due to conflicting experimental results, it is currently unclear whether the N-termini play a role in ion pump function or regulation, and, if they do, by what mechanism. Comparison of the lysine frequencies of the N-termini of both proteins with those of all of their extramembrane domains showed that the N-terminal lysine frequencies are far higher than one would expect simply from exposure to the aqueous solvent. The lysine frequency was found to vary significantly between different vertebrate classes, but this is due predominantly to a change in N-terminal length. As evidenced by a comparison between fish and mammals, an evolutionary trend towards an increase of the length of the N-terminus of the H+,K+-ATPase on going from an ancestral fish to mammals could be identified. This evolutionary trend supports the hypothesis that the N-terminus is important in ion pump function or regulation. In placental mammals, one of the lysines is replaced by serine (Ser-27), which is a target for protein kinase C. In most other animal species, a lysine occupies this position and hence no protein kinase C target is present. Interaction with protein kinase C is thus not the primary role of the lysine-rich N-terminus. The disordered structure of the N-terminus may, via increased flexibility, facilitate interaction with another binding partner, e.g. the surrounding membrane, or help to stabilise particular enzyme conformations via the increased entropy it produces.

Abstract
Ethylmalonic acid (EMA) accumulates in tissues of patients affected by short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and ethylmalonic encephalopathy, illnesses characterized by variable neurological symptoms. In this work, we investigated the in vitro and in vivo EMA effects on Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NAK) activity and mRNA levels in cerebral cortex from 30-day-old rats. For in vitro studies, cerebral cortex homogenates were incubated in the presence of EMA at 0.5, 1, or 2.5 mM concentrations for 1 h. For in vivo experiments, animals received three subcutaneous EMA injections (6 μmol g(-1); 90-min interval) and were killed 60 min after the last injection. After that, NAK activity and its mRNA expression were measured. We observed that EMA did not affect this enzyme activity in vitro. In contrast, EMA administration significantly increased NAK activity and decreased mRNA NAK expression as assessed by semiquantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction when compared with control group. Considering the high score of residues prone to phosphorylation on NAK, this profile can be associated with a possible regulation by specific phosphorylation sites of the enzyme. Altogether, the present results suggest that NAK alterations may be involved in the pathophysiology of brain damage found in patients in which EMA accumulates.

Abstract
The ability of cells to maintain sharp ion gradients across their membranes is the foundation for the molecular transport and electrical excitability. Across animal species and cell types, Na(+),K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is arguably the most powerful contributor to this phenomenon. By producing a steep concentration difference of sodium and potassium between the intracellular and extracellular milieu, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in the tubules provides the driving force for renal sodium reabsorption. Pump activity is downregulated by natriuretic hormones, such as dopamine, and is upregulated by antinatriuretic hormones, such as angiotensin. In the past decade, studies have revealed a novel and surprising role: that Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is a transducer of signals from extracellular to intracellular compartments. The signaling function of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is activated by ouabain, a mammalian steroid hormone, at far lower concentrations than those that inhibit pump activity. By promoting growth and inhibiting apoptosis, activation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase exerts tissue-protective effects. Ouabain-stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase signaling has recently shown clinical promise by protecting the malnourished embryonic kidney from adverse developmental programming. A deeper understanding of the tissue-protective role of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase signaling and the regulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase pumping activity is of fundamental importance for the understanding and treatment of kidney diseases and kidney-related hypertension.

Abstract
20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a cytochrome P450 metabolite of arachidonic acid that that contributes to infarct size following focal cerebral ischemia. However, little is known about the role of 20-HETE in global cerebral ischemia or neonatal hypoxia-ischemia (H-I). The present study examined the effects of blockade of the synthesis of 20-HETE with N-hydroxy-N'-(4-n-butyl-2-methylphenyl) formamidine (HET0016) in neonatal piglets after H-I to determine if it protects highly vulnerable striatal neurons. Administration of HET0016 after H-I improved early neurological recovery and protected neurons in putamen after 4 days of recovery. HET0016 had no significant effect on cerebral blood flow. cytochrome P450 4A immunoreactivity was detected in putamen neurons, and direct infusion of 20-HETE in the putamen increased phosphorylation of Na(+), K(+) -ATPase and NMDA receptor NR1 subunit selectively at protein kinase C-sensitive sites but not at protein kinase A-sensitive sites. HET0016 selectively inhibited the H-I induced phosphorylation at these same sites at 3 h of recovery and improved Na(+), K(+) -ATPase activity. At 3 h, HET0016 also suppressed H-I induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activation and protein markers of nitrosative and oxidative stress. Thus, 20-HETE can exert direct effects on key proteins involved in neuronal excitotoxicity in vivo and contributes to neurodegeneration after global cerebral ischemia in immature brain.

Abstract
To examine potential mechanisms for the reduced resting membrane potentials (RPs) of mature dystrophic (mdx) muscle fibers, the Na(+)-K(+) pump inhibitor ouabain was added to freshly isolated nondystrophic and mdx fibers. Ouabain produced a 71% smaller depolarization in mdx fibers than in nondystrophic fibers, increased the [Na(+)](i) in nondystrophic fibers by 40%, but had no significant effect on the [Na(+)](i) of mdx fibers, which was approximately double that observed in untreated nondystrophic fibers. Western blots indicated no difference in total and phosphorylated Na(+)-K(+) ATPase catalytic α1 subunit between nondystrophic and mdx muscle. Examination of the effects of the NF-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) indicated that direct application of the drug slowly hyperpolarized mdx fibers (7 mV in 90 min) but had no effect on nondystrophic fibers. Pretreatment with ouabain abolished this hyperpolarization, and pretreatment with PDTC restored ouabain-induced depolarization and reduced [Na(+)](i). Administration of an NF-κB inhibitor that utilizes a different mechanism for reducing nuclear NF-κB activation, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), also hyperpolarized mdx fibers. These results suggest that in situ Na(+)-K(+) pump activity is depressed in mature dystrophic fibers by NF-κB dependent modulators, and that this reduced pump activity contributes to the weakness characteristic of dystrophic muscle.

Abstract
Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) is quantitatively one of the major prostaglandins synthesized in mammalian brain, and there is evidence that it facilitates seizures and neuronal death. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms involved in such excitatory effects. Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is a membrane protein which plays a key role in electrolyte homeostasis maintenance and, therefore, regulates neuronal excitability. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that PGE(2) decreases Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, in order to shed some light on the mechanisms underlying the excitatory action of PGE(2). Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was determined by assessing ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis. We found that incubation of adult rat hippocampal slices with PGE(2) (0.1-10 microM) for 30 min decreased Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in a concentration-dependent manner. However, PGE(2) did not alter Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity if added to hippocampal homogenates. The inhibitory effect of PGE(2) on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was not related to a decrease in the total or plasma membrane immunocontent of the catalytic alpha subunit of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. We found that the inhibitory effect of PGE(2) (1 microM) on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was receptor-mediated, as incubation with selective antagonists for EP1 (SC-19220, 10 microM), EP3 (L-826266, 1 microM) or EP4 (L-161982, 1 microM) receptors prevented the PGE(2)-induced decrease of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. On the other hand, incubation with the selective EP2 agonist (butaprost, 0.1-10 microM) increased enzyme activity per se in a concentration-dependent manner, but did not prevent the inhibitory effect of PGE(2). Incubation with a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor (H-89, 1 microM) and a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor (GF-109203X, 300 nM) also prevented PGE(2)-induced decrease of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. Accordingly, PGE(2) increased phosphorylation of Ser943 at the alpha subunit, a critical residue for regulation of enzyme activity. Importantly, we also found that PGE(2) decreases Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in vivo. The results presented here imply Na(+),K(+)-ATPase as a target for PGE(2)-mediated signaling, which may underlie PGE(2)-induced increase of brain excitability.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (ANGII) plays a central role in the enhanced sodium reabsorption in early type 1 diabetes in man and in streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetic rats. This study investigates the effect of untreated STZ-diabetes leading to diabetic nephropathy in combination with ANGII treatment, on the abundance and localization of the renal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase (NKA), a major contributor of renal sodium handling. After 7 weeks of STZ-diabetes (i.v. 65 mg kg(-1)) a subgroup of control (C) and diabetic (D7) Wistar rats were treated with ANGII (s.c. minipump 33 microg kg(-1) h(-1) for 24 h; CA and D7A). We measured renal function and mRNA expression, protein level, Serin23 phosphorylation, subcellular distribution, and enzyme activity of NKA alpha-1 subunit in the kidney cortex. Diabetes increased serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels (C versus D7), as did ANGII (C versus CA, D7 versus D7A). Both diabetes (C versus D7) and ANGII increased NKA alpha-1 protein level and enzyme activity (C versus CA, D7 versus D7A). Furthermore, the combination led to an additive increase (D7 versus D7A, CA versus D7A). NKA alpha-1 Ser23 phosphorylation was higher both in D7 and ANGII-treated rats in the non-cytoskeletal fraction, while no signal was detected in the cytoskeletal fraction. Control kidneys showed NKA alpha-1 immunopositivity on the basolateral membrane of proximal tubular cells, while both D7 and ANGII broadened NKA immunopositivity towards the cytoplasm. Our study demonstrates that diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the mRNA expression, protein level, Ser23 phosphorylation and enzyme activity of renal NKA, which is further elevated by ANGII. Despite an increase in total NKA quantity in diabetic nephropathy, the redistribution to the cystosol suggests the Na(+) pump is no longer functional. ANGII also caused translocation from the basolateral membrane, thus in diabetic states where ANGII level is acutely elevated, the loss of NKA will be exacerbated. This provides another mechanism by which ANGII blockade is likely to be protective.

Abstract
We earlier observed that treating rat proximal tubules with concentrations of angiotensin II (ANG II) that directly stimulate Na-K-ATPase activity changed how Na-K-ATPase subsequently eluted from an ouabain-affinity column. In this study we tested whether ANG II increases the rate of elution in response to ligands that trigger the decay of E(2)-P, which implies a change in functional properties of Na-K-ATPase, or by decreasing the amount subsequently eluted with SDS, which suggests a change in how Na-K-ATPase interacts with other proteins. We utilized a new digoxin-affinity column and novel lines of opossum kidney (OK) cells that coexpress the rat AT(1a) receptor and either the wild-type rat alpha(1)-isoform of Na-K-ATPase or a truncation mutant missing the first 32 amino acids of its NH(2) terminus. We characterized how rat kidney microsomes bind to and elute from the digoxin-affinity column and demonstrated that they are heterogeneous in the rate at which they release digoxin in response to ligands that trigger the decay of E(2)-P. Incubating OK cells with ANG II stimulated the ensuing elution of wild-type rat alpha(1)-subunit by increasing the kinetic response to ligands that cause a decay of E(2)-P without affecting the amount later eluted with SDS. In contrast, ANG II had no effect on the kinetic response of the truncation mutant but decreased the amount eluted with SDS. These data suggest that ANG II regulates both the kinetic properties of Na-K-ATPase and its interaction with other proteins by a mechanism(s) involving its NH(2) terminus.

Abstract
The plasma membrane 5-HT transporter (SERT) is the major protagonist in regulating extracellular 5-HT concentration and constitutes the target of drugs used to treat a host of metabolic and psychiatric disorders. The exact mechanisms sustaining SERT function still remain elusive. The present work exploits the properties of the 1C11 neuroectodermal progenitor, which acquires, upon 4 days of differentiation, a functional SERT within an integrated serotonergic phenotype to investigate regulatory mechanisms involved in SERT onset and functions. We show that poly(A) addition precedes SERT mRNA translation on day 2 of the serotonergic program. The newly translated transporter molecules immediately bind cocaine. Day 4 must be awaited to monitor antidepressant recognition and 5-HT uptake. Because external 5-HT reduces both 5-HT transport and SERT antidepressant binding, we identify 5-HT(2B) receptors as key players in controlling the overall 5-HT transport system. In the absence of external 5-HT, 5-HT(2B) receptor coupling to NO production ensures SERT phosphorylation to basal level and maximal 5-HT uptake. In the presence of 5-HT, the 5-HT(2B) receptor-PKC coupling promotes additional phosphorylations of both SERT and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit, impairing the electrochemical gradient necessary to 5-HT uptake. SERT hyperphosphorylation also affects antidepressant recognition. Finally, such 5-HT(2B) receptor-mediated control of SERT activity operates in primary neurons from raphe nuclei. Altogether, our data shed new light on the 5-HT-driven post-translational modifications involved in the control of SERT activity.

Abstract
The Ran-binding protein 2 (RanBP2) is a large multimodular and pleiotropic protein. Several molecular partners with distinct functions interacting specifically with selective modules of RanBP2 have been identified. Yet, the significance of these interactions with RanBP2 and the genetic and physiological role(s) of RanBP2 in a whole-animal model remain elusive. Here, we report the identification of two novel partners of RanBP2 and a novel physiological role of RanBP2 in a mouse model. RanBP2 associates in vitro and in vivo and colocalizes with the mitochondrial metallochaperone, Cox11, and the pacemaker of glycolysis, hexokinase type I (HKI) via its leucine-rich domain. The leucine-rich domain of RanBP2 also exhibits strong chaperone activity toward intermediate and mature folding species of Cox11 supporting a chaperone role of RanBP2 in the cytosol during Cox11 biogenesis. Cox11 partially colocalizes with HKI, thus supporting additional and distinct roles in cell function. Cox11 is a strong inhibitor of HKI, and RanBP2 suppresses the inhibitory activity of Cox11 over HKI. To probe the physiological role of RanBP2 and its role in HKI function, a mouse model harboring a genetically disrupted RanBP2 locus was generated. RanBP2−/− are embryonically lethal, and haploinsufficiency of RanBP2 in an inbred strain causes a pronounced decrease of HKI and ATP levels selectively in the central nervous system. Inbred RanBP2+/− mice also exhibit deficits in growth rates and glucose catabolism without impairment of glucose uptake and gluconeogenesis. These phenotypes are accompanied by a decrease in the electrophysiological responses of photosensory and postreceptoral neurons. Hence, RanBP2 and its partners emerge as critical modulators of neuronal HKI, glucose catabolism, energy homeostasis, and targets for metabolic, aging disorders and allied neuropathies. The Ran-binding protein 2 (RanBP2) is a large protein with several domains. Although several protein partners were found to interact with selective domains of RanBP2, none to this date were found toward its large leucine-rich domain (LD). Cell-based experiments support several roles of RanBP2 in cell function, such as the production of functional proteins, control of protein trafficking between the nuclear and cytosol compartments, and control of multiple facets underlying cell division. Still, the genetic and physiological implications of the interactions between RanBP2 and its partners and of the function of RanBP2 in a whole-animal model remain elusive. The authors report the identification of two novel mitochondrial partners of the LD of RanBP2, Cox11 and hexokinase type I (HKI); and with multidisciplinary approaches probe the role of RanBP2 and its LD on Cox11, HKI, and functions allied to these. The authors found that RanBP2 exhibits chaperone activity toward HKI and Cox11. RanBP2 and Cox11 profoundly modulate HKI activity. Moreover, partial loss-of-function of RanBP2 in a mouse model induces deficits in growth rates and breakdown of glucose, promotes the down-regulation of HKI and ATP levels selectively in the central nervous system, and impairs visual function. These findings support a critical role of RanBP2 and its partners in metabolic processes and allied disease states.

Abstract
AIM This study was performed to examine the role of Na+,K+-ATPase activity for the adaptive response to cell swelling induced by hypoosmoticity, i.e. the regulatory volume decrease (RVD). METHODS The studies were performed on COS-7 cells transfected with rat Na+,K+-ATPase. To study changes in cell volume, cells were loaded with the fluorescent dye calcein and the intensity of the dye, following exposure to a hypoosmotic medium, was recorded with confocal microscopy. RESULTS Ouabain-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase resulted in a dose dependent decrease in the rate of RVD. Total 86Rb+ uptake as well as ouabain dependent 86Rb+ uptake, used as an index of Na+,K+-ATPase dependent K+ uptake, was significantly increased during the first 2 min following exposure to hypoosmoticity. Since protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in the modulation of RVD, a study was carried out on COS-7 cells expressing rat Na+,K+-ATPase, where Ser23 in the catalytic alpha1 subunit of rat Na+,K+-ATPase had been mutated to Ala (S23A), abolishing a known PKC phosphorylation site. Cells expressing S23A rat Na+,K+-ATPase exhibited a significantly lower rate of RVD and showed no increase in 86Rb+ uptake during RVD. CONCLUSION Taken together, these results suggest that a PKC-mediated transient increase in Na+,K+-ATPase activity plays an important role in RVD.

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
Sodium transport correlates with varying Na+-K+-ATPase activity rates along the nephron. Whether differences in Na+-K+-ATPase regulation by protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation are also present has not been tested. We measured the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit phosphorylation by the binding of McK-1 antibody to dephosphorylated Ser-23 and Na+-K+-ATPase activity in medullary thick ascending limb of Henle (mTAL) and proximal tubules (PCT). The degree of Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation at Ser-23 was lower in mTAL than in PCT (DU 13.43+/-1.99 versus 2.3+/-0.20, respectively, P<0.01) while Na+-K+-ATPase activity was higher in mTAL (3,402+/-83 vs 711+/-158 pmol/mm tubule per hour in PCT, P<0.01). PKC inhibitor RO-318220 10(-6) M decreased phosphorylation in PCT to 125+/-10% ( P<0.05). In mTAL, RO-318220 did not modify the phosphorylation degree or the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase. Both calcineurin inhibitor FK-506 10(-6) M and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) 10(-6) M increased the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation ( P<0.05) and inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase activity to 657+/-152 and 1,448+/-347 pmol/mm tubule per hour, respectively, in mTAL ( P<0.01). Increase in [Na+]i to 30, 50 and 70 mM resulted in no changes in Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation degree or activity in mTAL. Conversely, in PCT increments in [Na+]i were paralleled by decreased phosphorylation (from 120+/-7 to 160+/-15% of controls, P<0.05) and increased Na+-K+-ATPase activity (from 850+/-139 to 1,874+/-203 pmol/mm tubule per hour, P<0.01). Dopamine (DA) 10(-6) M decreased both Na+-K+-ATPase dephosphorylation to 41.85+/-9.58% ( P<0.05) and Na+-K+-ATPase activity to 2,405+/-176 pmol/mm tubule per hour in mTAL ( P<0.01). RO-318220 reversed DA effects. Data suggest that regulation of the degree of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit phosphorylation at Ser-23 and enzyme activity have different mechanisms in mTAL than in PCT, and may help us to understand the physiological heterogeneity of both segments.

Abstract
The natriuretic hormone dopamine and the antinatriuretic hormone noradrenaline, acting on alpha-adrenergic receptors, have been shown to bidirectionally modulate the activity of renal tubular Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphate (ATPase). Here we have examined whether intracellular sodium concentration influences the effects of these bidirectional forces on the state of phosphorylation of Na+,K+-ATPase. Proximal tubules dissected from rat kidney were incubated with dopamine or the alpha-adrenergic agonist, oxymetazoline, and transiently permeabilized in a medium where sodium concentration ranged between 5 and 70 mM. The variations of sodium concentration in the medium had a proportional effect on intracellular sodium. Dopamine and protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylate the catalytic subunit of rat Na+,K+-ATPase on the Ser23 residue. The level of PKC induced Na+,K+-ATPase phosphorylation was determined using an antibody that only recognizes Na+,K+-ATPase, which is not phosphorylated on its PKC site. Under basal conditions Na+,K+-ATPase was predominantly in its phosphorylated state. When intracellular sodium was increased, Na+,K+-ATPase was predominantly in its dephosphorylated state. Phosphorylation of Na+,K+-ATPase by dopamine was most pronounced when intracellular sodium was high, and dephosphorylation by oxymetazoline was most pronounced when intracellular sodium was low. The oxymetazoline effect was mimicked by the calcium ionophore A23187. An inhibitor of the calcium-dependent protein phosphatase, calcineurin, increased the state of Na+,K+-ATPase phosphorylation. The results imply that phosphorylation of renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity is modulated by the level of intracellular sodium and that this effect involves PKC and calcium signalling pathways. The findings may have implication for the regulation of salt excretion and sodium homeostasis.

Abstract
Several vasoconstrictor agents can regulate the phosphorylation status of the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase (NKA). We have recently demonstrated that mammalian tissues contain an endogenous bufadienolide, digitalis-like alpha(1)-NKA-selective ligand, marinobufagenin (MBG). Protein kinase C induces phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-NKA isoform, the major isoform in vascular smooth muscle, kidney, and heart cells. We hypothesized that protein kinase C-induced phosphorylation of NKA can potentiate the effect of endogenous digitalis-like ligands, and that such potentiation can occur in an NKA isoform-specific fashion. A protein kinase C activator, phorbol 12,13-diacetate (PDA, 50 nmol/L), induced phosphorylation of the alpha1-NKA from human mesenteric artery (HMA) sarcolemma and rat kidney but not that of the alpha(3)-NKA from rat fetal brain. In HMA sarcolemma, which predominantly contains alpha(1)-NKA, PDA (50 nmol/L) potentiated the NKA-inhibitory effect of MBG at the level of high-affinity binding sites (0.05 +/- 0.03 nmol/L versus 4.0 +/- 1.7 nmol/L, P<0.05). In contrast, PDA did not affect the NKA inhibition by ouabain, an alpha(3)-NKA ligand. In isolated endothelium-denuded HMA artery rings, 50 nmol/L PDA potentiated the MBG-induced vasoconstriction (EC(50), 17 +/- 6 nmol/L versus 150 +/- 40 nmol/L; P<0.01). Our results suggest that alpha(1)-isoform-specific NKA inhibition by the endogenous digitalis-like ligand, MBG, is substantially enhanced via NKA phosphorylation by protein kinase C. Thus, an interaction of protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation and MBG on NKA activity may underlie the synergistic vasoactive effects of MBG and other endogenous vasoconstrictors in hypertension.

Abstract
Na+,K+-ATPase distributes ions between the intracellular and extracellular space and is responsible for total-body sodium homeostasis. The activity of this ion pump is regulated by catecholamines and peptide hormones; by the ligand of Na+,K+-ATPase, ouabain; and by direct interaction with cytoskeleton proteins. This review summarizes recent advances in the field of short-term regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase and the implications of these advances for the regulation of blood pressure. Renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity is bidirectionally regulated by natriuretic and antinatriuretic hormones, and a shift in the balance between these forces may lead to salt retention and hypertension. Dopamine plays a key role in this interactive regulation. By inhibiting vascular Na+,K+-ATPase activity, an excess of circulating ouabain may increase calcium concentration in vascular cells and lead to increased vascular contractility. Finally, mutations in cytoskeleton proteins may stimulate renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity by way of protein/protein interaction and lead to salt retention and hypertension. Abnormalities in the systems regulating Na+,K+-ATPase should be explored further in the search for the multiple causes of essential hypertension.

Abstract
In this study we have evaluated the specificity of different PKC isozymes for the phosphorylation of the catalytic alpha1 subunit of rat renal Na+,K+-ATPase (alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase). Using in vitro phosphotransferase assays we found that classical PKCs (cPKCs) alpha, betaI, and gamma efficiently phosphorylate alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase. However, alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase was a poor substrate for the novel PKCs (nPKCs) delta and epsilon. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping revealed a similar pattern of phosphorylation by all cPKCs. The functional significance of this finding was evaluated by measuring Na+,K+-ATPase activity (assessed by 86Rb+ uptake) in COS-7 cells expressing the rat alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase. 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a nonselective PKC activator, inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity in this system. On the other hand, 12-deoxyphorbol-13-phenylacetate (DPP), which preferentially activates nPKCepsilon, did not affect 86Rb+ uptake. These results indicate a differential pattern of phosphorylation and regulation of rat renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity by PKC isoforms and suggest an important role for cPKCs in the physiological regulation of the pump.

Abstract
cDNAs that code for mouse organic anion transporting polypeptide 2 (oatp2) have been cloned. At least three forms of mouse oatp2 cDNAs containing the same coding sequence were isolated. The common coding sequence is for a protein of 670 amino acids with 12 putative transmembrane domains. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mouse oatp2 shares 89% identity with the reported rat oatp2. Cloning and analysis of mouse oatp2 gene indicates that these isoforms are alternatively spliced products from the same gene. Heterogeneity was observed in the 5'-untranslated region of the cDNAs. Two of the three isoforms lacked the noncoding exon 3 sequence. Northern-blot hybridization analysis using the exon 3-specific probes demonstrated that mouse oatp2 mRNA containing exon 3 sequence is expressed in heart and lung, whereas exon 1-, 2-, and 17-specific probes detected mRNA only in brain and liver. The mouse oatp2 gene consists of 17 exons, including three noncoding exons, and 16 introns. All of the introns are flanked by GT-AG splice sequences except for intron 10 that is flanked by GC-AG splice sequence.

Abstract
Dopamine causes inhibition of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity via activation of dopamine D(1)-like receptors. It is the phosphorylation of Serine(18) of the alpha(1)-subunit of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase which results in the inhibition of the enzyme activity; however, such a phosphorylation by dopamine D(1)-like receptor agonist has not been demonstrated in the proximal tubules. We show here by immunoprecipitation and detection with phosphoserine antibody that SKF 38393, a dopamine D(1)-like receptor agonist, causes phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-subunit of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. The effect of (+/-)-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-(1H)-3-benzazepine-7,8-diol hydrochloride, SKF 38393, is blocked by R(+)-7-choro-8-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzazepine hydrochloride, SCH 23390, a dopamine D(1)-like receptor antagonist, and staurosporin, a protein kinase C inhibitor. The phosphorylation is also increased by phorbol 12-13 dibutyrate ester. However, Rp-cAMP triethylamine, an inhibitor of protein kinase A, does not affect the SKF 38393-mediated phosphorylation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. Therefore, these results provide the evidence that dopamine D(1)-like receptor activation causes phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-subunit of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in renal proximal tubules via protein kinase C pathway.

Abstract
Tubular reabsorption of filtered sodium is quantitatively the main contribution of kidneys to salt and water homeostasis. The transcellular reabsorption of sodium proceeds by a two-step mechanism: Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-energized basolateral active extrusion of sodium permits passive apical entry through various sodium transport systems. In the past 15 years, most of the renal sodium transport systems (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, channels, cotransporters, and exchangers) have been characterized at a molecular level. Coupled to the methods developed during the 1965-1985 decades to circumvent kidney heterogeneity and analyze sodium transport at the level of single nephron segments, cloning of the transporters allowed us to move our understanding of hormone regulation of sodium transport from a cellular to a molecular level. The main purpose of this review is to analyze how molecular events at the transporter level account for the physiological changes in tubular handling of sodium promoted by hormones. In recent years, it also became obvious that intracellular signaling pathways interacted with each other, leading to synergisms or antagonisms. A second aim of this review is therefore to analyze the integrated network of signaling pathways underlying hormone action. Given the central role of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in sodium reabsorption, the first part of this review focuses on its structural and functional properties, with a special mention of the specificity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase expressed in renal tubule. In a second part, the general mechanisms of hormone signaling are briefly introduced before a more detailed discussion of the nephron segment-specific expression of hormone receptors and signaling pathways. The three following parts integrate the molecular and physiological aspects of the hormonal regulation of sodium transport processes in three nephron segments: the proximal tubule, the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, and the collecting duct.

Abstract
Short-term regulation of sodium metabolism is dependent on the modulation of the activity of sodium transporters by first and second messengers. In understanding diseases associated with sodium retention, it is necessary to identify the coupling between these messengers. We have examined whether dopamine, an important first messenger in tubular cells, activates and translocates various protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms. We used a proximal tubular-like cell line, LLCPK-1 cells, in which dopamine was found to inhibit Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in a PKC-dependent manner. Translocation of PKC isoforms was studied with both subcellular fractionation and confocal microscopy. Both techniques revealed a dopamine-induced translocation from cytosol to plasma membrane of PKC-alpha and -epsilon, but not of PKC-delta, -gamma, and -zeta. The process of subcellular fractionation resulted in partial translocation of PKC-epsilon. This artifact was eliminated in confocal studies. Confocal imaging permitted detection of translocation within 20 s. Translocation was abolished by a phospholipase C inhibitor and by an antagonist against the dopamine 1 subtype (D(1)) but not the 2 subtype of receptor (D(2)). In conclusion, this study visualizes in renal epithelial cells a very rapid activation of the PKC-alpha and -epsilon isoforms by the D(1) receptor subtype.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase provides the driving force for many ion transport processes through control of Na(+) and K(+) concentration gradients across the plasma membranes of animal cells. It is composed of two subunits, alpha and beta. In many tissues, predominantly in kidney, it is associated with a small ancillary component, the gamma-subunit that plays a modulatory role. A novel 15-kDa protein, sharing considerable homology to the gamma-subunit and to phospholemman (PLM) was identified in purified Na,K-ATPase preparations from rectal glands of the shark Squalus acanthias, but was absent in pig kidney preparations. This PLM-like protein from shark (PLMS) was found to be a substrate for both PKA and PKC. Antibodies to the Na, K-ATPase alpha-subunit coimmunoprecipitated PLMS. Purified PLMS also coimmunoprecipitated with the alpha-subunit of pig kidney Na, K-ATPase, indicating specific association with different alpha-isoforms. Finally, PLMS and the alpha-subunit were expressed in stoichiometric amounts in rectal gland membrane preparations. Incubation of membrane bound Na,K-ATPase with non-solubilizing concentrations of C(12)E(8) resulted in functional dissociation of PLMS from Na,K-ATPase and increased the hydrolytic activity. The same effects were observed after PKC phosphorylation of Na,K-ATPase membrane preparations. Thus, PLMS may function as a modulator of shark Na,K-ATPase in a way resembling the phospholamban regulation of the Ca-ATPase.

Abstract
To test the hypothesis that there is cross-talk between the protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A (PKA) pathways in the regulation of the Na,K-ATPase, we measured its phosphorylation in mammalian cell cultures. Phosphorylation of the PKC site, Ser-18, appeared to be due to the activation of the alpha isoform of the kinase. In NRK-52E and L6 cells, this phosphorylation was reduced by prior activation of a cAMP-dependent signaling pathway with forskolin. In principle this would be consistent with direct interaction between the two phosphorylation sites, but further investigation suggested a more indirect mechanism. First, phosphorylation of Ser-938, the PKA site, could not be detected despite the presence of active PKA. Second, there was a major reduction in the phosphorylation of unrelated phosphoproteins as a consequence of elevation of cAMP, suggesting generalized reduction of kinase activity or activation of phosphatase activity. In NRK-52E and L6, phosphorylation of the Na, K-ATPase at Ser-18 paralleled this global change. In C6 cells, in contrast, there was no cAMP effect on Na,K-ATPase phosphorylation at Ser-18 and no global cAMP effect on other phosphoproteins. The cross-talk is evidently mediated by events occurring at the cellular level.

Abstract
The Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, or sodium pump, is the membrane-bound enzyme that maintains the Na(+) and K(+) gradients across the plasma membrane of animal cells. Because of its importance in many basic and specialized cellular functions, this enzyme must be able to adapt to changing cellular and physiological stimuli. This review presents an overview of the many mechanisms in place to regulate sodium pump activity in a tissue-specific manner. These mechanisms include regulation by substrates, membrane-associated components such as cytoskeletal elements and the gamma-subunit, and circulating endogenous inhibitors as well as a variety of hormones, including corticosteroids, peptide hormones, and catecholamines. In addition, the review considers the effects of a range of specific intracellular signaling pathways involved in the regulation of pump activity and subcellular distribution, with particular consideration given to the effects of protein kinases and phosphatases.

Abstract
We have cloned a cDNA that codes for mouse liver-specific transporter-1, mouse lst-1. The cDNA is comprised of 3296 base pairs and it contains a coding sequence for a protein of 689 amino acids with 12 putative transmembrane domains. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mouse lst-1 shares 64 and 77% identities with the reported human and rat lsts, respectively. Northern blot analysis demonstrates that mouse lst-1 mRNA is expressed exclusively in liver. We also report here the structural organization of the mouse lst-1 gene as the first evidence for the structure of a gene encoding an lst. The mouse lst-1 gene spans approximately 60 kbp in length and consists of 16 exons, including two noncoding exons. All the introns are flanked by GT-AG consensus splice sequences. 5'-Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE) analyses demonstrate three splice variant mRNAs involving the noncoding exon 2 and exon 3. The 5'-flanking region of the gene contains consensus CAAT and TATA boxes and several potential binding sites for transcription factors for CAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) and hepatocyte nuclear factors (HNF-3beta, HFH-1, and HFH-2), transcription factors important for liver-specific gene expression.

Abstract
We have reported that inhibition of protein kinase C blocks the Ca(2+)-independent reverse transport of dopamine mediated by amphetamine. In this study we investigated whether activation of protein kinase C by 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) would mediate dopamine release through the plasmalemmal dopamine transporter. TPA, at 250 nM, increased the release of dopamine from rat striatal slices and synaptosomes while the inactive phorbol ester, 4alpha-phorbol, was ineffective. The TPA-mediated dopamine release was independent of extracellular calcium and was blocked by a selective protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro31-8220. The dopamine transporter antagonists, cocaine and GBR 12935 blocked the TPA-mediated dopamine release. In addition, cocaine blocked TPA-mediated phosphorylation of the plasmalemmal dopamine transporter. These results suggest that activation of protein kinase C results in reverse transport of dopamine through the plasmalemmal dopamine transporter and the phosphorylated substrate could be the dopamine transporter.

Abstract
Recent studies implicate a role in hepatocyte organic anion transport of a plasma membrane protein that has been termed oatp1 (organic anion transport protein 1). Little is known regarding mechanisms by which its transport activity is modulated in vivo. In previous studies (Campbell, C. G., Spray, D. C., and Wolkoff, A. W. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 15399-15404), we demonstrated that hepatocyte uptake of sulfobromophthalein was down-regulated by extracellular ATP. We have now found that extracellular ATP reduces the V(max) for transport of sulfobromophthalein by rat hepatocytes; K(m) remains unaltered. Reduced transport also results from incubation of hepatocytes with the phosphatase inhibitors okadaic acid and calyculin A. Immunoprecipitation of biotinylated cell surface proteins indicates that oatp1 remains on the cell surface after exposure of cells to ATP or phosphatase inhibitor, suggesting that loss of transport activity is not caused by transporter internalization. Exposure of (32)P-loaded hepatocytes to extracellular ATP results in serine phosphorylation of oatp1 with the appearance of a single major tryptic phosphopeptide; oatp1 from control cells is not phosphorylated. This phosphopeptide comigrates with one of four phosphopeptides resulting from incubation of cells with okadaic acid. These studies indicate that the phosphorylation state of oatp1 must be an important consideration when assessing alterations of its functional expression in pathobiological states.

Abstract
The alpha1 subunit of Na,K-ATPase is phosphorylated at Ser-16 by phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase(s) C (PKC). The role of Ser-16 phosphorylation was analyzed in COS-7 cells stably expressing wild-type or mutant (T15A/S16A and S16D-E) ouabain-resistant Bufo alpha1 subunits. In cells incubated at 37 degrees C, phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu) inhibited the transport activity and decreased the cell surface expression of wild-type and mutant Na,K-pumps equally ( approximately 20-30%). This effect of PDBu was mimicked by arachidonic acid and was dependent on PKC, phospholipase A(2), and cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase. In contrast, incubation of cells at 18 degrees C suppressed the down-regulation of Na,K-pumps and revealed a phosphorylation-dependent stimulation of the transport activity of Na,K-ATPase. Na,K-ATPase from cells expressing alpha1-mutants mimicking Ser-16 phosphorylation (S16D or S16E) exhibited an increase in the apparent Na affinity. This finding was confirmed by the PDBu-induced increase in Na sensitivity of the activity of Na,K-ATPase measured in permeabilized nontransfected COS-7 cells. These results illustrate the complexity of the regulation of Na,K-ATPase alpha1 isozymes by phorbol ester-sensitive PKCs and reveal 1) a phosphorylation-independent decrease in cell surface expression and 2) a phosphorylation-dependent stimulation of the transport activity attributable to an increase in the apparent Na affinity.

Abstract
Our previous studies showed that dopamine inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in acutely dissociated neurons from striatum. In the present study, we have found that in this preparation, dopamine inhibited significantly (by approximately 25%) the activity of the alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms, but not the alpha1 isoform, of Na+,K+-ATPase. Dopamine, via D1 receptors, activates cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in striatal neurons. Dopamine is also known to activate the calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) in a number of different cell types. The PKC activator phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate reduced the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms (by approximately 30%) as well as the alpha1 isoform (by approximately 15%). However, dopamine-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity was unaffected by calphostin C, a PKC inhibitor. Dopamine did not affect the phosphorylation of Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms at the PKA-dependent phosphorylation site. Phorbol ester treatment did not alter the phosphorylation of alpha2 or alpha3 isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase in neostriatal neurons but did increase the phosphorylation of the alpha1 isoform. Thus, in rat neostriatal neurons, treatment with either dopamine or PKC activators results in inhibition of the activity of specific (alpha3 and/or alpha2) isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase, but this is not apparently mediated through direct phosphorylation of the enzyme. In addition, PKC is unlikely to mediate inhibition of rat Na+,K+-ATPase activity by dopamine in neostriatal neurons.

Abstract
Treatment of rabbits with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors increases the apparent affinity of the Na+-K+ pump for Na+. To explore the mechanism, we voltage clamped myocytes from control rabbits and rabbits treated with captopril with patch pipettes containing 10 mM Na+. When pipette solutions were K+ free, pump current (Ip) for myocytes from captopril-treated rabbits was nearly identical to that for myocytes from controls. However, treatment caused a significant increase in Ip measured with pipettes containing K+. A similar difference was observed when myocytes from rabbits treated with the ANG II receptor antagonist losartan and myocytes from controls were compared. Treatment-induced differences in Ip were eliminated by in vitro exposure to ANG II or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or inclusion of the protein kinase C fragment composed of amino acids 530-558 in pipette solutions. Treatment with captopril had no effect on the voltage dependence of Ip. We conclude that ANG II regulates the pump's selectivity for intracellular Na+ at sites near the cytoplasmic surface. Protein kinase C is implicated in the messenger cascade.

Abstract
The Na+/K+-ATPase is a target protein for protein kinase C (PKC). The PKC-mediated phosphorylation of the rat alpha1 subunit at Ser-23 results in the inhibition of its transport function. To understand the molecular basis of the inhibition by PKC, the Ser-23 in the rat alpha1 subunit has been replaced by negatively (Asp, Glu) or positively (Lys) charged, or uncharged (Gln, Ala) residues, and the mutants were expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Ouabain-specific 86Rb uptake and pump-generated current as well as sensitivity to ouabain and to external K+ have been investigated. When Ser-23 was replaced by the negatively charged residues, transport function was inhibited, and simultaneously synthesis of the alpha subunits was enhanced. In addition, if Ser-23 was substituted by Glu, the K(I) value for inhibition of transport by ouabain was drastically increased from 46.5 microM to 1.05 mM. The data suggest that insertion of a negative charge within the N-terminus of alpha subunit of the Na+/K+-ATPase due to phosphorylation of Ser-23 plays an important role in the PKC-mediated inhibition of transport function.

Abstract
1. It is well established that the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA) is regulated by protein kinases A (PKA) and C (PKC), but results on their effects have been conflicting. The aim of this study was to examine if this is ascribed to the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). 2. Rat renal NKA was stably expressed in COS cells (green monkey kidney cells). Increases in [Ca2+]i were achieved with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 and verified by direct measurements of [Ca2+]i using fura-2 AM as an indicator. The activity of NKA was measured as ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake and the state of phosphorylation of NKA was monitored with two site-directed phosphorylation state-specific antibodies. 3. Activation of PKA with forskolin decreased NKA activity by 45.5 +/- 8.9 % at low [Ca2+]i (120 nM) and increased it by 40.5 +/- 6.4 % at high [Ca2+]i (420 nM). The change in NKA activity by forskolin correlated with the level of increase in [Ca2+]i. 4. The effect of 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a specific PKC activator, on the activity of NKA was also Ca2+ dependent, being inhibitory when [Ca2+]i was low (29.3 +/- 3.6 % decrease at 120 nM Ca2+) and stimulatory when [Ca2+]i was high (36.6 +/- 10.1 % increase at 420 nM Ca2+). 5. The alpha subunit of NKA was phosphorylated under both low and high [Ca2+]i conditions upon PKA or PKC activation. PKA phosphorylates Ser943. PKC phosphorylates Ser23. 6. To see if the observed effects on NKA activity are secondary to changes in Na+ entry, we measured NKA hydrolytic activity using permeabilized membranes isolated from cells under controlled Na+ conditions. A decreased activity at low [Ca2+]i and no change in activity at high [Ca2+]i were observed following forskolin or OAG treatment. 7. Purified NKA from rat renal cortex was phosphorylated and inhibited by PKC. This phosphorylation-associated inhibition of NKA was neither affected by Ca2+ nor by calmodulin, tested alone or together. 8. We conclude that effect of PKA/PKC on NKA activity is dependent on [Ca2+]i. This Ca2+ dependence may provide an explanation for the diversity of responses of NKA to activation of either PKA or PKC.

Abstract
The Na-K/H-K-ATPase gene family is divided in three subgroups including the Na-K-ATPases, mainly involved in whole body and cellular ion homeostasis, the gastric H-K-ATPase involved in gastric fluid acidification, and the newly described nongastric H-K-ATPases for which the identification of physiological roles is still in its infancy. The first member of this last subfamily was first identified in 1992, rapidly followed by the molecular cloning of several other members. The relationship between each member remains unclear. The functional properties of these H-K-ATPases have been studied after their ex vivo expression in various functional expression systems, including the Xenopus laevis oocyte, the insect Sf9 cell line, and the human HEK 293 cells. All these H-K-ATPase alpha-subunits appear to encode H-K-ATPases when exogenously expressed in such expression systems. Recent data suggest that these H-K-ATPases could also transport Na+ in exchange for K+, revealing a complex cation transport selectivity. Moreover, they display a unique pharmacological profile compared with the canonical Na-K-ATPases or the gastric H-K-ATPase. In addition to their molecular and functional characterizations, a major goal is to correlate the molecular expression of these cloned H-K-ATPases with the native K-ATPases activities described in vivo. This appears to be more complex than anticipated. The discrepancies between the functional data obtained by exogenous expression of the nongastric H-K-ATPases and the physiological data obtained in native organs could have several explanations as discussed in the present review. Extensive studies will be required in the future to better understand the physiological role of these H-K-ATPases, especially in disease processes including ionic or acid-base disorders.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of Na+/K+-ATPase by cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) has been studied in enzymes purified from pig, dog, sheep and rat kidneys, and in Xenopus oocytes. PKG phosphorylates the alpha-subunits of all animal species investigated. Phosphorylation of the beta-subunit was not observed. The stoichiometry of phosphorylation estimated for pig, sheep and dog renal Na+/K+-ATPase is 3.5, 2.2 and 2.1 mol Pi per mol alpha-subunit, respectively. Proteolytic fingerprinting of the pig alpha1-subunits phosphorylated by PKG using specific antibodies raised against N-terminus or C-terminus reveals that phosphorylation sites are located within the intracellular loop of the alpha-subunit between the 35 kDa N-terminal and 27 kDa C-terminal fragments. Phosphorylation sites within the alpha1-subunit of the purified Na+/K+-ATPase do not appear to be easily accessible for PKG since incorporation of Pi requires 0.2% of Triton X-100. Administration of cGMP and PKG in the presence of 5 mm ATP, which prevents inactivation of the Na+/K+-ATPase by detergent, leads to stimulation of hydrolytic activity by 61%. Administration of 50 microm of cGMP or dbcGMP in yolk-free homogenates of Xenopus oocytes leads to stimulation of ouabain-dependent ATPase activity by 130-198% and to incorporation of 33P into the alpha-subunit without the detergent. Hence, PKG plays regulatory role in active transmembraneous transport of Na+ and K+ via phosphorylation of the catalytic subunit of the Na+/K+-ATPase.

Abstract
Dopamine inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in renal tubule cells. This inhibition is associated with phosphorylation and internalization of the alpha subunit, both events being protein kinase C-dependent. Studies of purified preparations, fusion proteins with site-directed mutagenesis, and heterologous expression systems have identified two major protein kinase C phosphorylation residues (Ser-11 and Ser-18) in the rat alpha1 subunit isoform. To identify the phosphorylation site(s) that mediates endocytosis of the subunit in response to dopamine, we have performed site-directed mutagenesis of these residues in the rat alpha1 subunit and expressed the mutated forms in a renal epithelial cell line. Dopamine inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity and increased alpha subunit phosphorylation and clathrin-dependent endocytosis into endosomes in cells expressing the wild type alpha1 subunit or the S11A alpha1 mutant, and both effects were blocked by protein kinase C inhibition. In contrast, dopamine did not elicit any of these effects in cells expressing the S18A alpha1 mutant. While Ser-18 phosphorylation is necessary for endocytosis, it does not affect per se the enzymatic activity: preventing endocytosis with wortmannin or LY294009 blocked the inhibitory effect of dopamine on Na+,K+-ATPase activity, although it did not alter the increased alpha subunit phosphorylation induced by this agonist. We conclude that dopamine-induced inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase activity in rat renal tubule cells requires endocytosis of the alpha subunit into defined intracellular compartments and that phosphorylation of Ser-18 is essential for this process.

Abstract
Several indirect lines of evidence suggest that protein kinases and phosphatases modulate the activity of renal Na+-K+-ATPase. The aim of this study was to examine whether such regulation may occur via modulation of the state of phosphorylation of Na+-K+-ATPase. Slices from rat renal cortex were prelabeled with [32P]orthophosphate and incubated with the inhibitors of protein phosphatase (PP)-1 and PP-2A, okadaic acid (OA) and calyculin A (CL-A), respectively, the protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), or the PP-2B inhibitor, FK-506. Phosphorylation of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha-subunit was evaluated by measuring the amount of [32P]phosphate incorporation into the immunoprecipitated protein. Incubation with either OA, CL-A, or PDBu caused four- to fivefold increases in the amount of [32P]phosphate incorporation into immunoprecipitated Na+-K+-ATPase alpha-subunit. OA and PDBu had a synergistic effect on the state of phosphorylation of Na+-K+-ATPase alpha-subunit. FK-506 did not affect Na+-K+-ATPase phosphorylation, neither alone nor in the presence of PDBu. Each of the drugs, OA, CL-A, and PDBu, inhibited the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in microdissected proximal tubules. PDBu potentiated OA-induced inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase activity. Inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase required a lower dose of CL-A than of OA. On the basis of the inhibitory constant values of CL-A and OA for PP-1 and PP-2A, it is concluded that the tubular effect is mainly due to inhibition of PP-1. The PP-1 activity in rat renal cortex was approximately 1.5 nmol Pi. mg protein-1. min-1. Using a monoclonal anti-alpha antibody that fails to recognize the subunit when Ser23 is phosphorylated by PKC, we demonstrated that the dose response of PDBu inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase correlated with the dose response of phosphorylation of the enzyme. The results suggest that the state of phosphorylation and activity of proximal tubular Na+-K+-ATPase are determined by the balance between the activities of protein kinases and phosphatases.

Abstract
During the past decade, it has become evident that dopamine plays an important role in the regulation of renal function and blood pressure. Dopamine exerts its actions via a class of cell-surface receptors coupled to G-proteins that belong to the rhodopsin family. Dopamine receptors have been classified into two families based on pharmacologic and molecular cloning studies. In mammals, two D1-like receptors that have been cloned, the D1 and D5 receptors (known as D1A and D1B, respectively, in rodents), are linked to stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. Three D2-like receptors that have been cloned (D2, D3, and D4) are linked to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and Ca2+ channels and stimulation of K+ channels. All the mammalian dopamine receptors, initially cloned from the brain, have been found to be expressed outside the central nervous system, in such sites as the adrenal gland, blood vessels, carotid body, intestines, heart, parathyroid gland, and the kidney and urinary tract. Dopamine receptor subtypes are differentially expressed along the nephron, where they regulate renal hemodynamics and electrolyte and water transport, as well as renin secretion. The ability of renal proximal tubules to produce dopamine and the presence of receptors in these tubules suggest that dopamine can act in an autocrine or paracrine fashion; this action becomes most evident during extracellular fluid volume expansion. This renal autocrine/paracrine function is lost in essential hypertension and in some animal models of genetic hypertension; disruption of the D1 or D3 receptor produces hypertension in mice. In humans with essential hypertension, renal dopamine production in response to sodium loading is often impaired and may contribute to the hypertension. The molecular basis for the dopaminergic dysfunction in hypertension is not known, but may involve an abnormal post-translational modification of the dopamine receptor.

Abstract
The first 5 amino acids of the catalytic alpha 1 isoform from Na,K-ATPase are cleaved enzymatically during or after translation. To evaluate the structural requirements for that cleavage, we constructed amino-terminal mutants of alpha 1 in which an epitope tag from the c-myc oncogene product was added. Immunoblots of isolated membranes from transfected monkey kidney cells revealed binding of an antibody specific for the first 9 residues of the alpha 1 nascent protein. Because this antibody does not recognize the shorter sequence corresponding to the processed polypeptide, these results indicate that the epitope tag prevented normal processing, a conclusion confirmed by the observed binding of an anti-myc antibody. In contrast, membranes from cells expressing deletion mutants that lack residues 10-24 and 10-31 of the nascent chain failed to bind the amino-terminal-directed antibody, suggesting that the mutants were cleaved normally and that amino acids downstream of the first 9 are not required for proteolysis. Amino-terminal mutants produced in other laboratories have shown an anomalous stimulation of ATPase activity by K+ when measured in low ATP concentrations. The myc-tagged and downstream deletion mutants were sensitive to K+ in the range from 0.05 to 5 mM, similar to wild-type enzyme, despite the differences in posttranslational processing. A mutant missing the first 40 residues of the nascent chain, however, displayed an activation by K+. These results suggest that amino-terminal processing of the alpha 1 isoform was prevented by mutation, yet that processing had little influence on the kinetic parameter most likely to be influenced by such changes.

Abstract
Activation by protein kinase A by forskolin phosphorylates and inactivates Na+,K(+)-ATPase in COS-7 cells (Cheng et al. 1997b). In this study we show, using [3H]ouabain binding, that forskolin-induced inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity is not because of internalization of the enzyme. The effect of forskolin on Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity was examined by two independent methods, ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in intact cells and ATP hydrolysis in microsomal preparations from cells. The change in number of functional pumps on cell surface before and after protein kinase A activation was assessed by [3H]ouabain binding measured under equilibrium conditions. Cells, which had been ATP-depleted by antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose treatment, served as a positive control for the internalization of Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Activation of protein kinase A with forskolin in combination with the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methyl xanthine, inhibited Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity, but this treatment had no effect on specific ouabain binding. No change in ouabain binding was found following activation of protein kinase C by phorbol ester or diacyl glycerol analogue treatment in cells. These data suggest that protein kinase A phosphorylation and inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity does not lead to any internalization of the enzyme in COS-7 cells.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) modulates the activity and phosphorylation of the catalytic alpha-subunit of sodium-potassium-adenosine triphosphatase (Na+/K+ ATPase) in normal arteries. Because PKC is altered in cirrhotic aortae, Na+/K+ ATPase may also be altered in these arteries. The aim of the present study was to investigate alpha-subunit activity and phosphorylation in aortae from normal and cirrhotic rats, under baseline conditions and during exposure to PKC modulators. Alpha-subunit activity was assessed by measuring the amount of 32P released by hydrolysis of [gamma-32P]ATP in freshly isolated cell membranes (in the absence of PKC modulators only) and membrane depolarization caused by ouabain-induced alpha-subunit inhibition in isolated aortae (in the absence and presence of PKC modulators). Alpha-subunit phosphorylation was assessed by incorporation of 32P into alpha-subunits. Staurosporine, a PKC inhibitor, and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBU), a PKC activator, were used. In addition, alpha-subunit expression was studied by Western blot analysis. In the absence of PKC modulators, the amount of 32P released by hydrolysis of [gamma-32P]ATP and ouabain-induced membrane depolarization were significantly lower in cirrhotic than in normal aortae. Staurosporine suppressed ouabain-induced membrane depolarization in cirrhotic and normal arteries. Ouabain-induced membrane depolarization was similar in cirrhotic aortae exposed to PDBU and in normal arteries studied under baseline conditions. Alpha-subunit phosphorylation was significantly lower in cirrhotic than in normal aortae, in aortae under baseline conditions, and in arteries exposed to staurosporine. Phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit was similar in cirrhotic aortae exposed to PDBU and in normal arteries under baseline conditions. Western blot analysis showed that the amount of alpha-subunit did not significantly differ between cirrhotic and normal aortae. In conclusion, a decrease in baseline Na+/K+ ATPase alpha-subunit activity occurs in aortae from cirrhotic rats as a result of reduced basal PKC activity. This PKC-dependent decreased alpha-subunit activity may be caused by a reduction in PKC-induced alpha-subunit phosphorylation.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase in proximal tubule cells is associated with increased endocytosis of its alpha and beta subunits into early and late endosomes via a clathrin vesicle-dependent pathway. In this report we evaluated intracellular signals that could trigger this mechanism, specifically the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K), the activation of which initiates vesicular trafficking and targeting of proteins to specific cell compartments. DA stimulated PI 3-K activity in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and this effect was markedly blunted by wortmannin and LY 294002. Endocytosis of the Na+,K+-ATPase alpha subunit in response to DA was also inhibited in dose-dependent manner by wortmannin and LY 294002. Activation of PI 3-K generally occurs by association with tyrosine kinase receptors. However, in this study immunoprecipitation with a phosphotyrosine antibody did not reveal PI 3-K activity. DA-stimulated endocytosis of Na+, K+-ATPase alpha subunits required protein kinase C, and the ability of DA to stimulate PI 3-K was blocked by specific protein kinase C inhibitors. Activation of PI 3-K is mediated via the D1 receptor subtype and the sequential activation of phospholipase A2, arachidonic acid, and protein kinase C. The results indicate a key role for activation of PI 3-K in the endocytic sequence that leads to internalization of Na+,K+-ATPase alpha subunits in response to DA, and suggest a mechanism for the participation of protein kinase C in this process.
