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

Abstract
Dopamine exerts cardiovascular and renal actions mediated through interaction with specific dopamine receptors. Dopamine receptors are cell surface receptors coupled to G-proteins and classified into two main super families based on biochemical, pharmacological and molecular characteristics. The dopamine D1-like receptor super family includes D1 and D5 receptors, known also in rodents as D1A and D1B sites. These receptors are linked to stimulation of adenylate cyclase. The dopamine D2-like receptor super family includes D2, D3 and D4 receptors. These receptors are linked to inhibition of adenylate cylase or not related with this enzyme activity. They also interfere with opening of Ca+2 channels and are linked to stimulation of K+ receptors. Dopamine receptor subtypes are expressed in brain as well as in extracerebral structures such as the heart, blood vessels, carotid body, kidney, adrenal gland, parathyroid gland and gastrointestinal tract. In the kidney, which represents the peripheral organ where dopamine receptors were more extensively investigated, dopamine receptors are involved in regulation of hemodynamic, electrolyte and water transport, as well as renin secretion. Hypertension-related dopamine receptor changes were also investigated primarily in the kidney. Defective renal dopamine production and/or dopamine receptor function have been reported in human primary hypertension as well as in genetic models of animal hypertension. There may be a primary defect in D1-like receptors and an altered signalling system in the proximal tubules that lead to reduced dopamine-mediated effects on renal sodium excretion in hypertension. Studies on the influence of hypertension on dopamine D2-like receptors are sparse Disruption of either D1A or D3 receptors at the gene level causes hypertension in mice. Using peripheral blood lymphocytes as possible markers of the status of dopamine receptors in essential hypertension, no changes of dopamine D1-like receptors were noticeable, whereas an increase of dopamine D2-like receptors likely representing an up-regulation mechanism was reported. Available information collectively indicates an involvement of peripheral dopaminergic system in hypertension consisting either in impaired receptor transduction mechanisms and/or in receptor loss. A better knowledge of molecular bases of these changes may contribute to the development of specific therapeutic approaches in the future.

Abstract
Essential hypertension is an insidious disease in which the afflicted person risks disability and death from myocardial infarction and stroke. Many factors contribute to the development of essential hypertension, including environment, diet, daily stress, and genetics. Although several single gene disorders causing high blood pressure have been identified, the genetics of essential hypertension are much more complicated. The current hypothesis is that a combination of genetic variations in multiple genes may predispose a person to hypertension. Both overexpression and gene inactivation ("knockout") have proven useful tools to evaluate the genetics of essential hypertension and to identify pathways regulating blood pressure. Molecular and physiologic evaluations of transgenic and knockout mice carried out over the past 5 years have provided a plethora of information about the mechanisms of blood pressure regulation and the development and maintenance of hypertension. This review focuses on the newer mouse models that have been developed to investigate hypertension with an emphasis on vascular and renal mechanisms, contributed by the renin-angiotensin system, and other pathways intersecting with the renin-angiotensin system.

Abstract
The present study addresses the question of the relevance of salt intake on jejunal dopamine, Na+,K+-ATPase activity and electrolyte transport. Low salt, but not high salt, intake for 2 weeks increased dopamine levels in the jejunal mucosa accompanied by a marked decrease in L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine tissue levels. By contrast, in rats fasted for 72 h the effect of refeeding for 24 h with a low salt diet failed to change dopamine tissue levels, although it significantly increased those of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine. By contrast, high salt intake markedly increased the tissue levels of both dopamine and L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, without changes in dopamine/L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine tissue ratios. Tissue levels of both L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine and dopamine in control conditions (normal salt intake for 2 weeks) were markedly higher (P < 0.05) than in rats submitted to 72 h fasting plus 24 h refeeding. The effect of fasting for 72 h followed by 24 h refeeding was a marked decrease in jejunal Na+,K+-ATPase activity, particularly evident for rats fed a normal salt and high salt diets during the refeeding period. Basal short circuit current was similar in rats fed a normal salt diet for 2 weeks and 24 h, and the type of diet failed to alter basal short circuit current after refeeding with normal, low and high salt diets. On the other hand, the effect of prolonged low salt intake was a marked decrease in jejunal Na+, K+-ATPase activity and basal short circuit current, whereas high salt intake failed to alter enzyme activity and basal short circuit current. In rats fed for 2 weeks a high salt diet ouabain was found to be more potent in reducing jejunal short circuit current than in rats fed normal and low salt diets. The effect of furosemide was more marked in rats fed for 2 weeks high and low salt diets than in animals receiving a normal salt intake. Dopamine (up to 1 micromol L-1) was found not to alter Na+,K+-ATPase and basal short circuit current in jejunal epithelial sheets, in rats fed with normal, low and high salt diets for 2 weeks and 24 h.

Abstract
The ability of the dopamine-1 (D1)-like receptor to stimulate adenylyl cyclase (AC) and phospholipase C (PLC), inhibit sodium transport in the renal proximal tubule (RPT), and produce natriuresis is attenuated in several rat models of hypertension. Since the inhibitory effect of D1-like receptors on RPT sodium transport is also reduced in some patients with essential hypertension, we measured D1-like receptor coupling to AC and PLC in cultures of human RPT cells from normotensive (NT) and hypertensive (HT) subjects. Basal cAMP concentrations were the same in NT (n=6) and HT (n=4). However, the D1-like receptor agonist fenoldopam increased cAMP production to a greater extent in NT (maximum response=67+/-1%) than in HT (maximum response=17+/-5%), with a potency ratio of 105. Dopamine also increased cAMP production to a greater extent in NT (32+/-3%) than in HT (14+/-3%). The fenoldopam-mediated increase in cAMP production was blocked by SCH23390 (a D1-like receptor antagonist) and by antisense D1 oligonucleotides in both HT and NT, indicating action at the D1 receptor. The stimulatory effects of forskolin and parathyroid hormone-related protein of cAMP accumulation were not statistically different in NT and HT, indicating receptor specificity and an intact G-protein/AC pathway. The fenoldopam-stimulated PLC activity was not impaired in HT, and the primary sequence and expression of the D1 receptor were the same in NT and HT. However, D1 receptor serine phosphorylation in the basal state was greater in HT than in NT and was not responsive to fenoldopam stimulation in HT. These studies demonstrate the expression of D1 receptors in human RPT cells in culture. The uncoupling of the D1 receptor in both rats (previously described) and humans (described here) suggests that this mechanism may be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension; the uncoupling may be due to ligand-independent phosphorylation of the D1 receptor in hypertension.

Abstract
-Dopamine, via D1-like receptors, stimulates the activity of both protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC), which results in inhibition of renal sodium transport. Since D1-like receptors differentially regulate sodium transport in normotensive and hypertensive rats, they may also differentially regulate PKC expression in these rat strains. Thus, 2 different D1-like agonists (fenoldopam or SKF 38393) were infused into the renal artery of anesthetized normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) (n=5 to 6/drug/strain). Ten or 60 minutes after starting the D1-like agonist infusion, both the infused kidney and the noninfused kidney that served as control were prepared for analysis. The D1-like agonists produced a greater diuresis and natriuresis and inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity in proximal tubule (PT) and medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) to a greater extent in WKY (Delta20+/-1%) than in SHR (Delta7+/-1%, P<0.001). D1-like agonists had no effect on PKC-alpha or PKC-lambda expression in either membrane or cytosol but increased PKC-theta expression in PT in both WKY and SHR at 10 minutes but not at 60 minutes. However, membranous PKC-delta expression in PT and mTAL decreased in WKY but increased in SHR with either 10 or 60 minutes of D1-like agonist infusion. D1-like agonists also decreased membranous PKC-zeta expression in PT and mTAL in WKY but increased it in PT but not in mTAL in SHR. We conclude that there is differential regulation of PKC isoform expression by D1-like agonists that inhibits membranous PKC-delta and PKC-zeta in WKY but stimulates them in SHR; this effect in SHR is similar to the stimulatory effect of norepinephrine and angiotensin II and may be a mechanism for their differential effects on sodium transport.

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
Since dopamine receptors are important in the regulation of renal and cardiovascular function, we studied the cardiovascular consequences of the disruption of the D3 receptor, a member of the family of D2-like receptors, expressed in renal proximal tubules and juxtaglomerular cells. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were higher (approximately 20 mmHg) in heterozygous and homozygous than in wild-type mice. An acute saline load increased urine flow rate and sodium excretion to a similar extent in wild-type and heterozygous mice but the increase was attenuated in homozygous mice. Renal renin activity was much greater in homozygous than in wild-type mice; values for heterozygous mice were intermediate. Blockade of angiotensin II subtype-1 receptors decreased systolic blood pressure for a longer duration in mutant than in wild-type mice. Thus, disruption of the D3 receptor increases renal renin production and produces renal sodium retention and renin-dependent hypertension.

Abstract
Dopamine D3 receptor was studied in peripheral mononuclear cells of high-normal, stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3 essential hypertensives using a radioligand binding assay technique with [3H]-7-hydroxy-N,N-di-n-propyl-2-aminotetraline (7-OH-DPAT) as a radioligand. A group of de novo Parkinsonian patients was also examined as a reference group of impaired dopaminergic function. [3H]-7-OH-DPAT was bound specifically to human peripheral mononuclear cells in a manner consistent with the labeling of a dopamine D3 receptor. No changes in free dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine and aldosterone levels, renin activity, dissociation constant of [3H]-7-OH-DPAT binding, or the pharmacological profile of [3H]-7-OH-DPAT binding were found between normotensive control subjects and essential hypertensives or Parkinsonians. The density of peripheral mononuclear cell [3H]-7-OH-DPAT binding sites increased in essential hypertensives parallel to blood pressure value augmentation. A higher density of [3H]-7-OH-DPAT binding sites was found in Parkinsonians. In these patients, the density of [3H]-7-OH-DPAT binding sites was similar to that observed in high-normal subjects and in stage 1 essential hypertensives. The increased density of peripheral mononuclear cell dopamine D3 receptor in hypertension as well as in Parkinson's disease may represent an upregulation mechanism consequent to impaired dopaminergic function. In view of the difficulty in identifying markers of peripheral dopamine function, analysis of dopamine D3 receptor in peripheral mononuclear cells may help evaluate whether the dopaminergic system is involved in hypertension.
