Abstract
PURPOSEOF REVIEW Female sex hormones have systemic effects unrelated to their reproductive function. We describe experiences of different research groups and our own, on aspects related to the importance of female sex hormones on blood pressure (BP) regulation and salt-sensitivity-mediated BP response and salt sensitivity without alterations in BP, as well as renal sodium handling and interactions with the immune system. RECENT FINDINGS Changes in sodium intake in normotensive premenopausal women cause more BP variations than in men. After menopause, women often develop arterial hypertension (HT) with a profile of sodium sensitivity. Besides, experimental results have shown that in adult rat models resembling the postmenopausal hormonal state induced by ovariectomy, controlling BP is not enough to avoid renal and other tissue infiltration with immune cells, which does not occur when sodium intake is low or normal. Therefore, excess sodium promotes an inflammatory state with the involvement of immune cells. The evidence of activation of adaptive immunity, besides changes in T cell subpopulations, includes changes in sodium transporters and receptors. More studies are needed to evaluate the particular sodium sensitivity of women and its meaning. Changes in lifestyle and sodium intake reduction are the main therapeutic steps. However, to face the actual burden of salt-sensitive HT in postmenopausal women and its associated inflammatory/immune changes, it seems reasonable to work on immune cell activity by considering the peripheral blood mononuclear cell phenotypes of molecules and transport proteins related to sodium handle, both to screen for and treat cell activation.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) are a family of proteins that regulate cellular cargo sorting and trafficking, maintain intracellular protein homeostasis, and participate in intracellular signaling. SNXs are also important in the regulation of blood pressure via several mechanisms. Aberrant expression and dysfunction of SNXs participate in the dysregulation of blood pressure. Genetic studies show a correlation between SNX gene variants and the response to antihypertensive drugs. In this review, we summarize the progress in SNX-mediated regulation of blood pressure, discuss the potential role of SNXs in the pathophysiology and treatment of hypertension, and propose novel strategies for the medical therapy of hypertension.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-mediated natriuresis is known as a cardiac endocrine function in sodium and body fluid homeostasis. Corin is a protease essential for ANP activation. Here, we studied the role of renal corin in regulating salt excretion and blood pressure. We created corin conditional knockout (cKO), in which the Corin gene was selectively disrupted in the kidney (kcKO) or heart (hcKO). We examined the blood pressure, urinary Na+ and Cl− excretion, and cardiac hypertrophy in wild-type, corin global KO, kcKO, and hcKO mice fed normal- and high-salt diets. We found that on a normal-salt diet (0.3% NaCl), corin kcKO and hcKO mice had increased blood pressure, indicating that both renal and cardiac corin is necessary for normal blood pressure in mice. On a high-salt diet (4% NaCl), reduced urinary Na+ and Cl− excretion, increased body weight, salt-exacerbated hypertension, and cardiac hypertrophy were observed in corin kcKO mice. In contrast, impaired urinary Na+ and Cl− excretion and salt-exacerbated hypertension were not observed in corin hcKO mice. These results indicated that renal corin function is important in enhancing natriuresis upon high salt intakes and that this function cannot be compensated by the cardiac corin function in mice.

Rosiglitazone treatment restores renal responsiveness to atrial natriuretic peptide in rats with congestive heart failure. J Cell Mol Med 2019; 23:4779-4794.

Abstract
The thiazolidinedione (TZD) class of Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma agonists has restricted clinical use for diabetes mellitus due to fluid retention and potential cardiovascular risks. These side effects are attributed in part to direct salt‐retaining effect of TZDs at the renal collecting duct. A recent study from our group revealed that prolonged rosiglitazone (RGZ) treatment caused no Na+/H2O retention or up‐regulation of Na+ transport‐linked channels/transporters in experimental congestive heart failure (CHF) induced by surgical aorto‐caval fistula (ACF). The present study examines the effects of RGZ on renal and cardiac responses to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), Acetylcholine (Ach) and S‐Nitroso‐N‐acetylpenicillamine (SNAP‐NO donor). Furthermore, we assessed the impact of RGZ on gene expression related to the ANP signalling pathway in animals with ACF. Rats subjected to ACF (or sham) were treated with either RGZ (30 mg/kg/day) or vehicle for 4 weeks. Cardiac chambers pressures and volumes were assessed invasively via Miller catheter. Kidney excretory and renal hemodynamic in response to ANP, Ach and SNAP were examined. Renal clearance along with cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), gene expression of renal CHF‐related genes and ANP signalling in the kidney were determined. RGZ‐treated CHF rats exhibited significant improvement in the natriuretic responses to ANP infusion. This ‘sensitization’ to ANP was not associated with increases in neither urinary cGMP nor in vitro cGMP production. However, RGZ caused down‐regulation of several genes in the renal cortex (Ace, Nos3 and Npr1) and up‐regulation of ACE2, Agtrla, Mme and Cftr along down‐regulation of Avpr2, Npr1,2, Nos3 and Pde3 in the medulla. In conclusion, CHF+RGZ rats exhibited significant enhancement in the natriuretic responses to ANP infusion, which are known to be blunted in CHF. This ‘sensitization’ to ANP is independent of cGMP signalling, yet may involve post‐cGMP signalling target genes such as ACE2, CFTR and V2 receptor. The possibility that TZD treatment in uncomplicated CHF may be less detrimental than thought before deserves additional investigations.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Diabetes is a downregulator of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), resulting in reduced nitric oxide level and low expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase by which nitric oxide level get reduced. In the present study, we examined the role of ANP in reduced nitric oxide level, which may be responsible in controlling diabetic nephropathy in rats.
Methods
Serum nitrite/nitrate ratio, blood urea nitrogen, protein in urine, urinary output, serum creatinine, serum cholesterol, kidney weight, kidney hypertrophy, renal cortical collagen content, thiobarbituric acid level, and antioxidant enzymatic activities were assessed.
Results
Treatment with lisinopril (1 mg/kg) significantly attenuated diabetes-induced elevated glucose level, cholesterol level, and protein in urine concentration. Whereas ANP at low dose (5 μg/kg) has no effect on elevated markers of diabetic nephropathy, treatment with intermediate (10 μg/kg) and high-dose ANP (20 μg/kg) significantly attenuated the diabetes-induced increased blood urea nitrogen, protein in urine, urinary output, creatinine, cholesterol, kidney weight, kidney hypertrophy, renal collagen content, and thiobarbituric acid level and reduced endogenous antioxidant enzymatic activities. High dose of ANP was more effective in attenuating the diabetes-induced nephropathy, renal oxidative stress, and antioxidant enzyme activity as compared with the treatment with low-dose ANP (5 μg/kg), intermediate-dose ANP (10 μg/kg), or lisinopril (1 mg/kg, employed as standard agent). Administration of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine, a phosphodiesterase-2 inhibitor (3 mg/kg), in combination with high-dose ANP significantly attenuated high-dose ANP induced ameliorative effects in diabetic nephropathy.
Conclusions
Taken together, these results indicate that diabetes-induced oxidative stress and lipid alterations may be responsible for the induction of nephropathy in diabetic rats. ANP at intermediate and high doses have prevented the development of diabetes-induced nephropathy by reducing the cholesterol level, protein in urine concentration, and renal oxidative stress and by increasing the nitrite/nitrate ratio, certainly providing the direct nephroprotective action.

Abstract
The balance between vasoconstrictor/sodium-retaining and vasodilator/natriuretic systems is essential for maintaining body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. Natriuretic peptides, such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), belong to the vasodilator/natriuretic system. ANP is produced by the conversion of pro-ANP into ANP, which is achieved by a proteolytical cleavage executed by corin. In the kidney, ANP binds to the natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPR-A) and enhances its guanylyl cyclase activity, thereby increasing intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate production to promote natriuretic and renoprotective responses. In the glomerulus, ANP increases glomerular permeability and filtration rate and antagonizes the deleterious effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system activation. Along the nephron, natriuretic and diuretic actions of ANP are mediated by inhibiting the basolaterally expressed Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, reducing apical sodium, potassium, and protein organic cation transporter in the proximal tubule, and decreasing Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter activity and renal concentration efficiency in the thick ascending limb. In the medullary collecting duct, ANP reduces sodium reabsorption by inhibiting the cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channels, the epithelial sodium channel, and the heteromeric channel transient receptor potential-vanilloid 4 and -polycystin 2 and diminishes vasopressin-induced water reabsorption. Long-term ANP treatment may lead to NPR-A desensitization and ANP resistance, resulting in augmented sodium and water reabsorption. In mice, corin deficiency impairs sodium excretion and causes salt-sensitive hypertension. Characteristics of ANP resistance and corin deficiency are also encountered in patients with edema-associated diseases, highlighting the importance of ANP signaling in salt-water balance and renal pathophysiology.

Abstract
Sodium metabolism by the kidney is accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors. Renal dopamine plays a central role in this interactive network. The natriuretic hormones, such as the atrial natriuretic peptide, mediate some of their effects by affecting the renal dopaminergic system. Renal dopaminergic tonus can be modulated at different steps of dopamine metabolism (synthesis, uptake, release, catabolism, and receptor sensitization) which can be regulated by the atrial natriuretic peptide. At tubular level, dopamine and atrial natriuretic peptide act together in a concerted manner to promote sodium excretion, especially through the overinhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase activity. In this way, different pathological scenarios where renal sodium excretion is dysregulated, as in nephrotic syndrome or hypertension, are associated with impaired action of renal dopamine and/or atrial natriuretic peptide, or as a result of impaired interaction between these two natriuretic systems. The aim of this review is to update and comment on the most recent evidences demonstrating how the renal dopaminergic system interacts with atrial natriuretic peptide to control renal physiology and blood pressure through different regulatory pathways.

Abstract
The dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) is crucial in the regulation of blood pressure and sodium balance, in that Drd3 gene ablation in mice results in hypertension and failure to excrete a dietary salt load. The mechanism responsible for the renal sodium retention in these mice is largely unknown. We now offer and describe a novel mechanism by which D3R decreases sodium transport in the long term by inhibiting the deubiquitinylating activity of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 48 (USP48), thereby promoting Na(+)-H(+) exchanger (NHE)-3 degradation. We found that stimulation with the D3R-specific agonist PD128907 (1 μM, 30 min) promoted the interaction and colocalization among D3R, NHE3, and USP48; inhibited USP48 activity (-35±6%, vs. vehicle), resulting in increased ubiquitinylated NHE3 (+140±10%); and decreased NHE3 expression (-50±9%) in human renal proximal tubule cells (hRPTCs). USP48 silencing decreased NHE3's half-life (USP48 siRNA t1/2=6.1 h vs. vehicle t1/2=12.9 h), whereas overexpression of USP48 increased NHE3 half-life (t1/2=21.8 h), indicating that USP48 protects NHE3 from degradation via deubiquitinylation. USP48 accounted for ∼30% of the total deubiquitinylating activity in these cells. Extending our studies in vivo, we found that pharmacologic blockade of D3R via the D3R-specific antagonist GR103691 (1 μg/kg/min, 4 d) in C57Bl/6J mice increased renal NHE3 expression (+310±15%, vs. vehicle), whereas an innovative kidney-restricted Usp48 silencing via siRNA (3 μg/d, 7 d) increased ubiquitinylated NHE3 (+250±30%, vs. controls), decreased total NHE3 (-23±2%), and lowered blood pressure (-24±2 mm Hg), compared with that in control mice that received either the vehicle or nonsilencing siRNA. Our data demonstrate a crucial role for the dynamic interaction between D3R and USP48 in the regulation of NHE3 expression and function.

Abstract
Dopamine is an important regulator of systemic blood pressure via multiple mechanisms. It affects fluid and electrolyte balance by its actions on renal hemodynamics and epithelial ion and water transport and by regulation of hormones and humoral agents. The kidney synthesizes dopamine from circulating or filtered L-DOPA independently from innervation. The major determinants of the renal tubular synthesis/release of dopamine are probably sodium intake and intracellular sodium. Dopamine exerts its actions via two families of cell surface receptors, D1-like receptors comprising D1R and D5R, and D2-like receptors comprising D2R, D3R, and D4R, and by interactions with other G protein-coupled receptors. D1-like receptors are linked to vasodilation, while the effect of D2-like receptors on the vasculature is variable and probably dependent upon the state of nerve activity. Dopamine secreted into the tubular lumen acts mainly via D1-like receptors in an autocrine/paracrine manner to regulate ion transport in the proximal and distal nephron. These effects are mediated mainly by tubular mechanisms and augmented by hemodynamic mechanisms. The natriuretic effect of D1-like receptors is caused by inhibition of ion transport in the apical and basolateral membranes. D2-like receptors participate in the inhibition of ion transport during conditions of euvolemia and moderate volume expansion. Dopamine also controls ion transport and blood pressure by regulating the production of reactive oxygen species and the inflammatory response. Essential hypertension is associated with abnormalities in dopamine production, receptor number, and/or posttranslational modification.

Abstract
Dopamine and urodilatin promote natriuresis and diuresis through a common pathway that involves reversible deactivation of renal Na+, K+-ATPase. We have reported that urodilatin enhances dopamine uptake in outer renal cortex through the natriuretic peptide type A receptor. Moreover, urodilatin enhances dopamine-induced inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase activity. The objective of the present work was to investigate the intracellular signals involved in urodilatin effects on dopamine uptake in renal cortex of kidney rats. We show that urodilatin-elicited increase in ³H-dopamine was blunted by methylene blue (10 μM), a non-specific guanylate cyclase inhibitor, and by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (1 μM), a particulate guanylate cyclase inhibitor, but not by 1H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazolo-[4,3-a]-quinoxalin-1-one (10 μM), a specific soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor; therefore the involvement of particulate guanylate cyclase on urodilatin mediated dopamine uptake was confirmed. Cyclic guanosine monophosphate and proteinkinase G were also implicated in the signaling pathway, since urodilatin effects were mimicked by the analog 125 μM 8-Br-cGMP and blocked by the proteinkinase G-specific inhibitor, KT-5823 (1 μM). In conclusion, urodilatin increases dopamine uptake in renal cortex stimulating natriuretic peptide type A receptor, which signals through particulate guanylate cyclase activation, cyclic guanosine monophosphate generation, and proteinkinase G activation. Dopamine and urodilatin may achieve their effects through a common pathway that involves deactivation of renal Na+, K+-ATPase, reinforcing their natriuretic and diuretic properties.

Abstract
AbstractNatriuretic peptides (NPs) regulate salt and water homeostasis by inducing natriuresis and diuresis in the kidney. These actions in addition to those via the heart and vascular system play important roles in the regulation of blood pressure. In the central nervous system NPs play a significant role in neuronal development, synaptic transmission and neuroprotection. Currently, six different human NPs have been described: atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), urodilatin (URO, renal natriuretic peptide), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) as well as guanylin and uroguanylin. ANP, URO and BNP activate the natriuretic peptide receptor A (NPR-A or guanylate cyclase A (GC-A)) while CNP activates natriuretic peptide receptor B (NPR-B or guanylate cyclase B (GC-B)). Guanylin and uroguanylin are known to activate guanylate cyclase C (GC-C). The receptors GC-A, GC-B, and GC-C are widely expressed in the human body. Currently, GC-B and CNP seems to have the highest expression in central nervous system compared to other NPs and their receptors. All known NPs generate intracellular cyclic GMP (cGMP) by activating their specific guanylate cyclase receptors. Subsequently, cGMP is able to activate protein kinase I or II (PKG I or II) and/or directly regulate transmembrane proteins such as ion channels, transporters and pumps. NPs also bind to the natriuretic peptide receptor C (also called clearance receptor NPR-C) which is a major pathway for the degradation of NPs and has no guanylate cyclase activity. In this review we will focus on new insights regarding the physiological effects of NPs in the brain, especially specific areas of their signaling pathways in neurons and glial cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It was demonstrated in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats that the D(1) receptor agonist failed to promote sodium excretion as a result of reduced renal D(1) receptor expression and decreased receptor G protein coupling. The present study examined the influence of glycaemic control with insulin on the renal D(1) receptor dysfunction in STZ-induced type 1 diabetes. METHODS Renal function, blood pressure, the natriuretic response to 5% volume expansion (VE) and the effects of the D(1) receptor agonist fenoldopam on natriuresis and on Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity in renal tubules were evaluated in uninephrectomized and sham-operated Wistar rats treated with STZ and compared with controls and STZ-treated rats made euglycaemic with insulin. D(1) receptor immunohistochemistry and protein abundance by western blot were also determined in all groups. RESULTS Treatment of sham and uninephrectomized rats with STZ caused a 4-fold increase in glucose plasma levels compared to controls and euglycaemic diabetic rats. A blunted natriuretic response to VE was observed in both sham and uninephrectomized hyperglycaemic diabetic rats, and this was accompanied by failure of fenoldopam to increase natriuresis and to inhibit renal Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity. In contrast, in both sham and uninephrectomized euglycaemic diabetic rats, the natriuretic response to VE, the fenoldopam-induced natriuresis and the accompanied inhibition of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity were similar to those of the corresponding controls. D(1) receptor immunodetection and protein abundance were reduced in hyperglycaemic diabetic rats, but not in euglycaemic diabetic animals. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the renal expression and natriuretic response to D(1) receptor activation is compromised in both sham and uninephrectomized rats with STZ-induced diabetes. These abnormalities were prevented by lowering glucose blood levels with insulin, thus providing evidence for the involvement of hyperglycaemia in the disturbances that underlie the compromised dopamine-sensitive natriuresis and increase of blood pressure in type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Since renal natriuretic peptide urodilatin (URO) exerts similar natriuretic and diuretic actions to those of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), we hypothesized that URO regulates renal dopamine (DA) availability, contributing to Na(+), K(+)-ATPase inhibition. URO (1-100 nM) increased (3)H-DA uptake in outer and juxtamedullar renal cortex and medulla slices from Sprague Dawley rats. Hydrocortisone blocked URO-stimulated DA uptake, demonstrating that DA uptake was extraneuronal. The natriuretic peptide receptor type A antagonist anantin blocked URO-dependent increase of (3)H-DA uptake, while the natriuretic peptide receptor type C agonist ANF 4-23-amide did not modify URO effect on DA uptake, suggesting that only natriuretic receptors type A are involved. Co-incubation of URO and ANF did not show additive effects on DA uptake. To test whether URO effect involves changes in Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity we performed experiments in renal cortex samples of rats with DA synthesis and neuronal uptake inhibited by carbidopa and nomifensine, respectively. When endogenous DA synthesis was inhibited, URO or DA decreased Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity. URO and DA added together, further decreased Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity showing an additive effect on the sodium pump. Moreover, hydrocortisone reversed URO-DA over-inhibition of the enzyme, confirming that this inhibition is closely related to URO-stimulation on renal DA uptake. URO and DA could act via a common intracellular pathway to decrease sodium and water tubular reabsorption, contributing to its natriuretic and diuretic effects.

Abstract
Natriuretic peptides (NPs) and their receptors (NPRs) are expressed in the heart, but their effects on myocyte function are poorly understood. Because NPRs are coupled to synthesis of cGMP, an activator of the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ pump, we examined whether atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) regulates the pump. We voltage clamped rabbit ventricular myocytes and identified electrogenic Na+-K+ pump current (arising from the 3:2 Na+:K+ exchange and normalized for membrane capacitance) as the shift in membrane current induced by 100 μmol/l ouabain. Ten nanomoles per liter ANP stimulated the Na+-K+ pump when the intracellular compartment was perfused with pipette solutions containing 10 mmol/l Na+ but had no effect when the pump was at near maximal activation with 80 mmol/l Na+ in the pipette solution. Stimulation was abolished by inhibition of cGMP-activated protein kinase with KT-5823, nitric oxide (NO)-activated guanylyl cyclase with 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazole[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ), or NO synthase with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME). Since synthesis of cGMP by NPR-A and NPR-B is not NO dependent or ODQ sensitive, we exposed myocytes to AP-811, a highly selective ligand for the NPR-C “clearance” receptor. It abolished ANP-induced pump stimulation. Conversely, the selective NPR-C agonist ANP(4-23) reproduced stimulation. The stimulation was blocked by l-NAME. To examine NO production in response to ANP(4-23), we loaded myocytes with the NO-sensitive fluorescent dye diacetylated diaminofluorescein-2 and examined them by confocal microscopy. ANP(4-23) induced a significant increase in fluorescence, which was abolished by l-NAME. We conclude that NPs stimulate the Na+-K+ pump via an NPR-C and NO-dependent pathway.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and dopamine (DA) are both important regulators of sodium and water transport across renal proximal tubules. Many evidences suggest that some of ANF inhibitory effects on sodium and water reabsorption are mediated by dopaminergic mechanisms. We have previously reported that ANF stimulates extraneuronal DA uptake in external renal cortex by activation of NPR-A receptors coupled to cGMP signal and PKG. Moreover, ANF enhanced DA-induced inhibition of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase activity. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if ANF could alter also renal DA release, catabolism and turn over. The results indicate that ANF did not affect basal secretion of the amine in external renal cortex or its KCl-induced release, but diminished DA turn over. Moreover, ANF diminished COMT and did not alter MAO activity. In conclusion, present results as well as previous findings show that ANF modifies DA metabolism in rat external renal cortex by enhancing DA uptake and decreasing COMT activity. All those effects, taken together, may favor DA accumulation into renal cells and increase its endogenous content and availability. This would permit D1 receptor recruitment and stimulation and in turn, Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity over inhibition that results in decreased sodium reabsorption. Therefore, ANF and DA could act via a common pathway to enhance natriuresis and diuresis.

Abstract
In alveolar epithelial cells, G-protein coupled-receptors agonists (GPCR) induce the recruitment of the Na,K-ATPase to the plasma membrane. Here we report that for the recruitment of the Na,K-ATPase to occur, dephosphorylation of its alpha1-subunit at serine 18 is necessary, as demonstrated by in vitro phosphorylation, mutation of the serine 18 to alanine, and use of a specific phospho-antibody. Several approaches strongly suggest dephosphorylation to be mediated by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A): 1) Na,K-ATPase dephosphorylation and recruitment were prevented by okadaic acid (OA); 2) the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit is an in vitro substrate for PP2A; and 3) glutathione S-transferase (GST)-fusion proteins binding assays demonstrate a direct interaction between the catalytic subunit of PP2A and the first 90 amino acids of the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit. Finally, GPCR agonists induced a rapid translocation of PP2A from the cytosol to the membrane fraction, which corresponded with increased coimmunoprecipitation and colocalization of PP2A and the Na,K-ATPase. Accordingly, we provide evidence that GPCR agonists promote PP2A translocation to the membrane fraction, leading to the dephosphorylation of the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit at the serine 18 residue and its recruitment to the cell plasma membrane, which is of biological and physiological importance.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) share a number of physiological effects. We hypothesized that ANF and the renal dopaminergic system could interact and enhance the natriuretic and diuretic effects of the peptide. We have previously reported that the ANF-stimulated DA uptake in renal tubular cells is mediated by the natriuretic peptide type-A receptor (NPR-A). Our aim was to investigate the signaling pathways that mediate ANF effects on renal 3H-DA uptake. Methylene blue (10 microM), an unspecific inhibitor of guanylate cyclase (GC), blunted ANF elicited increase of DA uptake. ODQ (10 microM) a specific inhibitor of soluble GC, did not modify DA uptake and did not reverse ANF-induced increase of DA uptake; then the participation of nitric oxide-dependent pathways must be discarded. The second messenger was the cGMP since the analogous 125 microM 8-Br-cGMP mimicked ANF effects. The specific inhibitor of the protein kinase G (PKG), KT 5823 (1 microM) blocked ANF effects indicating that PKG is involved. We examined if ANF effects on DA uptake were able to modify Na+, K+ -adenosine triphosphatase (Na+, K+ -ATPase) activity. The experiments were designed by means of inhibition of renal DA synthesis by carbidopa and neuronal DA uptake blocked by nomifensine. In these conditions renal Na+, K+ -ATPase activity was increased, in agreement with the decrease of DA availability. When in similar conditions, exogenous DA was added to the incubation medium, the activity of the enzyme tended to decrease, following to the restored availability of DA. The addition of ANF alone had similar effects to the addition of DA on the sodium pump, but when both were added together, the activity of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase was decreased. Moreover, the extraneuronal uptake blocker, hydrocortisone, inhibited the latter effect. In conclusion, ANF stimulates extraneuronal DA uptake in external cortex tissues by activation of NPR-A receptors coupled to GC and it signals through cGMP as second messenger and PKG. Dopamine and ANF may achieve their effects through a common pathway that involves reversible deactivation of renal tubular Na+, K+ -ATPase activity. This mechanism demonstrates a DA-ANF relationship involved in the modulation of both decreased sodium reabsorption and increased natriuresis.

Abstract
To determine the effects of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on renal dopamine (DA) metabolism, 3H-DA and 3H-L-DOPA uptake by renal tubular cells was measured in experiments carried out in vitro in Sprague-Dawley rats. The receptor type involved was also analyzed. The results indicate that ANF increased at 30 min, DA uptake in a concentration-response fashion having 10 pM ANF as the threshold concentration. Conversely, the uptake of the precursor L-DOPA was not modified by the peptide. ANF effects were observed in tissues from external and juxtamedullar cortex and inner medulla. On this basis, 100 nM ANF was used to continue the studies in external cortex tissues. DA uptake was characterized as extraneuronal uptake, since 100 microM hydrocortisone blocked ANF-induced increase of DA uptake. Renal DA uptake was decreased at 0 degrees C and in sodium-free medium. The effects of ANF in these conditions were not present, confirming that renal DA uptake is mediated by temperature- and sodium-dependent transporters and that the peptide requires the presence of the ion to exhibit its actions on DA uptake. The biological natriuretic peptide type A receptor (NPR-A) mediates ANF effects, since 100 nM anantin, a specific blocker, reversed ANF-dependent increase of DA uptake. The natriuretic peptide type C receptor (NPR-C) is not involved, since the specific analogous 100 nM 4-23 ANF amide has no effect on renal DA uptake and does not alter the effects of 100 nM ANF. In conclusion, ANF stimulates DA uptake by kidney tubular cells. ANF effects are mediated by NPR-A receptors coupled to guanylate cyclase and cGMP as second messenger. The process involved was characterized as a typical extraneuronal uptake, and characterized as temperature- and sodium-dependent. This mechanism could be related to DA effects on sodium reabsorption and linked to ANF enhanced natriuresis in the kidney. The increment of endogenous DA into tubular cells, as a consequence of increased DA uptake, would permit D1 receptor recruitment and Na+,K+-ATPase activity inhibition, which results in decreased sodium reabsorption and increased natriuresis.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibits Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity through protein kinase C- (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase- (ERK) dependent pathways and increases serine phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-subunit. To determine whether specific serine phosphorylation sites within the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit are involved in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase responses to PTH, we examined the effect of PTH in opossum kidney cells stably transfected with wild type rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit (WT), serine 11 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S11A), or serine 18 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S18A). PTH increased phosphorylation and endocytosis of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with WT and S18A rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits. PTH did not increase the level of phosphorylation or stimulate translocation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with the S11A mutant. PTH inhibited ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity (ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis) in WT- and S18A-transfected opossum kidney cells but not in S11A-transfected cells. Pretreatment of the cells with the PKC inhibitors and ERK inhibitor blocked PTH inhibition of (86)Rb uptake, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation, and endocytosis in WT and S18A cells. Consistent with the notion that ERK phosphorylates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit, ERK was shown to be capable of causing phosphorylation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit immunoprecipitated from WT and S18A but not from S11A-transfected cells. These results suggest that PTH regulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase by PKC and ERK-dependent alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation and that the phosphorylation requires the expression of a serine at the 11 position of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intrarenal natriuretic hormone dopamine (DA) is metabolised by catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase (MAO). Inhibition of COMT, as opposed to MAO, results in a potent natriuretic response in the rat. The present study in anaesthetized homozygous and heterozygous COMT gene deleted mice attempted to further elucidate the importance of COMT in renal DA and sodium handling. After acute intravenous isotonic sodium loading, renal function was followed. RESULTS COMT activity in heterozygous mice was about half of that in wild type mice and was zero in the homozygous mice. MAO activity did not differ between the genotypes. Urinary sodium excretion increased 10-fold after sodium loading in wild type mice. In heterozygous and homozygous mice, the natriuretic effects of sodium loading were only 29 % and 39 %, respectively, of that in wild type mice. Arterial pressure and glomerular filtration rate did not differ between genotypes. Baseline norepinephrine and DA excretions in urine were elevated in the homozygous, but not in heterozygous, COMT gene deleted mice. Urinary DA excretion increased after isotonic sodium loading in the wild type mice but not in the COMT gene deleted mice. CONCLUSIONS Mice with reduced or absent COMT activity have altered metabolism of catecholamines and are unable to increase renal DA activity and produce normal natriuresis in response to acute sodium loading. The results support the hypothesis that COMT has an important role in the DA-mediated regulation of renal sodium excretion.
