PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 98:153982. [PMID: 35168092 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.153982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2021] [Revised: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Our early studies performed on aged rats, ovariectomized (OVX) rats and diabetic mice, indicated the calciotropic role of Fructus Ligustri Lucidi (FLL), the fruit of Ligustrum lucidum Ait., in mediating calcium homeostasis which was partially attributed to its stimulation on renal calcium reabsorption. PURPOSE This study aimed to explicate the underlying molecular mechanism and explore the potential bioactive ingredients in FLL. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS The OVX C57BL/6 J mice were orally administered with low (FL, 75 mg/kg), middle (FM, 225 mg/kg) or high (FH, 675 mg/kg) dose of extract of Fructus Ligustri Lucidi for 10 weeks. The biological properties of trabecular bone were measured by micro-CT and H&E staining. The molecular expression was assessed by immunoblotting and immunostaining. The potential active components were identified by cell membrane chromatography (CMC) and explored in renal tubular cells with Fluo-3/AM fluorescent staining to indicate intracellular calcium level. The male mice fed with high calcium diet (1.2% Ca) and orally treated with active components for 3 weeks. RESULTS Treatment of OVX mice with FLL extract suppressed the elevation in urinary calcium level (FH, 0.081 ± 0.012, vs. OVX, 0.189 ± 0.038 mg/mg), and increased bone mineral density (FH, 62.41 ± 2.57, vs. OVX, 43.72 ± 8.43 mg/ccm) and percentage of trabecular bone area. It also decreased circulating PTH level (FH, 66.69 ± 10.94, vs. OVX, 303.50 ± 26.56 pg/ml) and up-regulated TRPV5 expression in renal cortex of OVX mice as well as enhanced the expression of PTH receptor (PTH1R) and the ratio of p-PKA/PKA. The PKA inhibitor H89 abolished the induction of serum, prepared from rats treated with FLL extract, on PKA/TRPV5 signaling in renal tubular cells. The CMC identified phenol glycosides, including salidroside and oleuropein, which increased intracellular calcium content, promoted expression of PTH1R and TRPV5 and ratio of p-PKA/PKA as well as decreased calcium excretion in urine of mice fed with high calcium diet. CONCLUSION Salidroside and oleuropein are major ingredients contributing to the anti-hypercalciuria effects of FLL via acting on PTH1R/PKA/TRPV5 signaling in kidney. Further translational research would be required.

Parathyroid hormone controls paracellular Ca 2+ transport in the thick ascending limb by regulating the tight-junction protein Claudin14. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2017; 114:E3344-E3353.

Abstract
Renal Ca2+ reabsorption is essential for maintaining systemic Ca2+ homeostasis and is tightly regulated through the parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTHrP receptor (PTH1R) signaling pathway. We investigated the role of PTH1R in the kidney by generating a mouse model with targeted deletion of PTH1R in the thick ascending limb of Henle (TAL) and in distal convoluted tubules (DCTs): Ksp-cre;Pth1rfl/fl Mutant mice exhibited hypercalciuria and had lower serum calcium and markedly increased serum PTH levels. Unexpectedly, proteins involved in transcellular Ca2+ reabsorption in DCTs were not decreased. However, claudin14 (Cldn14), an inhibitory factor of the paracellular Ca2+ transport in the TAL, was significantly increased. Analyses by flow cytometry as well as the use of Cldn14-lacZ knock-in reporter mice confirmed increased Cldn14 expression and promoter activity in the TAL of Ksp-cre;Pth1rfl/fl mice. Moreover, PTH treatment of HEK293 cells stably transfected with CLDN14-GFP, together with PTH1R, induced cytosolic translocation of CLDN14 from the tight junction. Furthermore, mice with high serum PTH levels, regardless of high or low serum calcium, demonstrated that PTH/PTH1R signaling exerts a suppressive effect on Cldn14. We therefore conclude that PTH1R signaling directly and indirectly regulates the paracellular Ca2+ transport pathway by modulating Cldn14 expression in the TAL. Finally, systemic deletion of Cldn14 completely rescued the hypercalciuric and lower serum calcium phenotype in Ksp-cre;Pth1rfl/fl mice, emphasizing the importance of PTH in inhibiting Cldn14. Consequently, suppressing CLDN14 could provide a potential treatment to correct urinary Ca2+ loss, particularly in patients with hypoparathyroidism.

Abstract
Hypercalciuria is a major risk factor for nephrolithiasis. We previously reported that Uromodulin (UMOD) protects against nephrolithiasis by upregulating the renal calcium channel TRPV5. This channel is crucial for calcium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT). Recently, mutations in the gene encoding Mucin-1 (MUC1) were found to cause autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease, the same disease caused by UMOD mutations. Because of the similarities between UMOD and MUC1 regarding associated disease phenotype, protein structure, and function as a cellular barrier, we examined whether urinary MUC1 also enhances TRPV5 channel activity and protects against nephrolithiasis. We established a semiquantitative assay for detecting MUC1 in human urine and found that, compared with controls (n=12), patients (n=12) with hypercalciuric nephrolithiasis had significantly decreased levels of urinary MUC1. Immunofluorescence showed MUC1 in the thick ascending limb, DCT, and collecting duct. Applying whole-cell patch-clamp recording of HEK cells, we found that wild-type but not disease mutant MUC1 increased TRPV5 activity by impairing dynamin-2- and caveolin-1-mediated endocytosis of TRPV5. Coimmunoprecipitation confirmed a physical interaction between TRPV5 and MUC1. However, MUC1 did not increase the activity of N-glycan-deficient TRPV5. MUC1 is characterized by variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) that bind the lectin galectin-3; galectin-3 siRNA but not galectin-1 siRNA prevented MUC1-induced upregulation of TRPV5 activity. Additionally, MUC1 lacking VNTRs did not increase TRPV5 activity. Our results suggest that MUC1 forms a lattice with the N-glycan of TRPV5 via galectin-3, which impairs TRPV5 endocytosis and increases urinary calcium reabsorption.

Is the renal kallikrein-kinin system a factor that modulates calciuria? Nefrologia 2016; 37:5-8. [PMID: 27469036 DOI: 10.1016/j.nefro.2016.04.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2016] [Revised: 03/30/2016] [Accepted: 04/28/2016] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Renal tubular calcium reabsorption is one of the principal factors that determine serum calcium concentration and calcium excretion. Calcium excretion is regulated by the distal convoluted tubule and connecting tubule, where the epithelial calcium channel TRPV5 can be found, which limits the rate of transcellular calcium transport. The dynamic presence of the TRPV5 channel on the surface of the tubular cell is mediated by an endosomal recycling process. Different intrarenal factors are involved in calcium channel fixation in the apical membrane, including the anti-ageing hormone klotho and tissue kallikrein (TK). Both proteins are synthesised in the distal tubule and secreted in the tubular fluid. TK stimulates active calcium reabsorption through the bradykinin receptor B2 that compromises TRPV5 activation through the protein kinase C pathway. TK-deficient mice show hypercalciuria of renal origin comparable to that seen in TRPV5 knockout mice. There is a polymorphism with loss of function of the human TK gene R53H (allele H) that causes a marked decrease in enzymatic activity. The presence of the allele H seems to be common at least in the Japanese population (24%). These individuals have a tendency to greater calcium and sodium excretion in urine that is more evident during furosemide infusion. Future studies should analyse if manipulating the renal kallikrein-kinin system can correct idiopathic hypercalciuria with drugs other than thiazide diuretics.

Abstract
Klotho, a protein mainly expressed in kidney and cerebral choroid plexus, is a powerful regulator of 1,25(OH)2D3 formation. Klotho-deficient mice (kl/kl) suffer from excessive plasma 1,25(OH)2D3-, Ca2+- and phosphate-concentrations, leading to severe soft tissue calcification and accelerated aging. NH4Cl treatment prevents tissue calcification and premature ageing without affecting 1,25(OH)2D3-formation. The present study explored the impact of excessive 1,25(OH)2D3 formation in NH4Cl-treated kl/kl-mice on behavior. To this end kl/kl-mice and wild-type mice were treated with NH4Cl and either control diet or vitamin D deficient diet (LVD). As a result, plasma 1,25(OH)2D3-, Ca2+- and phosphate-concentrations were significantly higher in untreated and in NH4Cl-treated kl/kl-mice than in wild-type mice, a difference abrogated by LVD. In each, open field, dark-light box, and O-maze NH4Cl-treated kl/kl-mice showed significantly higher exploratory behavior than untreated wild-type mice, a difference abrogated by LVD. The time of floating in the forced swimming test was significantly shorter in NH4Cl treated kl/kl-mice compared to untreated wild-type mice and to kl/kl-mice on LVD. In wild-type animals, NH4Cl treatment did not significantly alter 1,25(OH)2D3, calcium and phosphate concentrations or exploratory behavior. In conclusion, the excessive 1,25(OH)2D3 formation in klotho-hypomorphic mice has a profound effect on murine behavior.

Abstract
Klotho, a protein counteracting aging, is a powerful inhibitor of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] formation and regulator of mineral metabolism. In klotho hypomorphic (kl/kl) mice, excessive 1,25(OH)2D3 formation leads to hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification, severe growth deficits, accelerated aging and early death. Kl/kl mice further suffer from extracellular volume depletion and hypotension, leading to the stimulation of antidiuretic hormone and aldosterone release. A vitamin D-deficient diet, restriction of dietary phosphate, inhibition of mineralocorticoid receptors with spironolactone, and dietary NaCl all extend the lifespan of kl/kl mice. Kl/kl mice suffer from acidosis. The present study explored whether replacement of tap drinking water by 150 mM NaHCO3 affects the growth, tissue calcification, and lifespan of kl/kl mice. As a result, NaHCO3 administration to kl/kl mice did not reverse the growth deficit but substantially decreased tissue calcification and significantly increased the average lifespan from 78 to 127 days. NaHCO3 did not significantly affect plasma concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3 and Ca(2+) but significantly decreased plasma phosphate concentration and plasma aldosterone concentration. The present study reveals a novel effect of bicarbonate, i.e., a favorable influence on vascular calcification and early death of klotho-deficient mice.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Klotho, a protein expressed mainly in the kidney, is required for the inhibitory effect of FGF23 on renal 1,25(OH)2D3 formation. Klotho counteracts vascular calcification and diverse age-related disorders. Klotho-hypomorphic mice (kl/kl) suffer from severe vascular calcification and rapid aging. The calcification is at least in part caused by excessive 1,25(OH)2D3, Ca(2+), and phosphate concentrations in blood, which trigger osteogenic signaling including upregulation of alkaline phosphatase (Alpl). As precipitation of calcium and phosphate is fostered by alkaline pH, extracellular acidosis could counteract tissue calcification. In order to induce acidosis, acetazolamide was added to drinking water (0.8 g/l) of kl/kl and wild-type mice. As a result, acetazolamide treatment of kl/kl mice partially reversed the growth deficit, tripled the life span, almost completely reversed the calcifications in trachea, lung, kidney, stomach, intestine, and vascular tissues, the excessive aortic alkaline phosphatase mRNA levels and the plasma concentrations of osteoprotegerin, osteopontin as well as fetuin-A, without significantly decreasing FGF23, 1,25(OH)2D3, Ca(2+), and phosphate plasma concentrations. In primary human aortic smooth muscle cells, acidotic environment prevented phosphate-induced alkaline phosphatase mRNA expression. The present study reveals a completely novel effect of acetazolamide, i.e., interference with osteoinductive signaling and tissue calcification in kl/kl mice. KEY MESSAGES Klotho deficient (kl/kl) mice suffer from hyperphosphatemia with dramatic tissue calcification. Acetazolamide (ACM) treatment partially reversed the growth deficit of kl/kl mice. In kl/kl mice, ACM reversed tissue calcification despite continued hyperphosphatemia. ACM tripled the life span of kl/kl mice. In human aortic smooth muscle cells, low extracellular pH prevented osteogenic signaling.

Abstract
Klotho, a cofactor in suppressing 1,25(OH)2D3 formation, is a powerful regulator of mineral metabolism. Klotho-hypomorphic mice (kl/kl) exhibit excessive plasma 1,25(OH)2D3, Ca(2+), and phosphate concentrations, severe tissue calcification, volume depletion with hyperaldosteronism, and early death. Calcification is paralleled by overexpression of osteoinductive transcription factor Runx2/Cbfa1, Alpl, and senescence-associated molecules Tgfb1, Pai-1, p21, and Glb1. Here, we show that NH4Cl treatment in drinking water (0.28 M) prevented soft tissue and vascular calcification and increased the life span of kl/kl mice >12-fold in males and >4-fold in females without significantly affecting extracellular pH or plasma concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3, Ca(2+), and phosphate. NH4Cl treatment significantly decreased plasma aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone concentrations and reversed the increase of Runx2/Cbfa1, Alpl, Tgfb1, Pai-1, p21, and Glb1 expression in aorta of kl/kl mice. Similarly, in primary human aortic smooth muscle cells (HAoSMCs), NH4Cl treatment reduced phosphate-induced mRNA expression of RUNX2/CBFA1, ALPL, and senescence-associated molecules. In both kl/kl mice and phosphate-treated HAoSMCs, levels of osmosensitive transcription factor NFAT5 and NFAT5-downstream mediator SOX9 were higher than in controls and decreased after NH4Cl treatment. Overexpression of NFAT5 in HAoSMCs mimicked the effect of phosphate and abrogated the effect of NH4Cl on SOX9, RUNX2/CBFA1, and ALPL mRNA expression. TGFB1 treatment of HAoSMCs upregulated NFAT5 expression and prevented the decrease of phosphate-induced NFAT5 expression after NH4Cl treatment. In conclusion, NH4Cl treatment prevents tissue calcification, reduces vascular senescence, and extends survival of klotho-hypomorphic mice. The effects of NH4Cl on vascular osteoinduction involve decrease of TGFB1 and inhibition of NFAT5-dependent osteochondrogenic signaling.

Abstract
The expression of transient receptor potential cation channel V5 (TRPV5) in articular cartilage cells under normal and exercise loading conditions was measured, and the clinical significance, in order to define its role in the formation of articular cartilage tissues was analyzed. In normal and osteoarthritis (OA) Sprague Dawley rats the severity of injury was observed, TRPV5 expression was measured by immunohistochemistry following exercise loading, and its association with clinical pathological characteristics (including articular lesions) was analyzed. The results of the immunohistochemical assay showed that the percentage of positive expression areas in the normal articular cartilage and loading articular cartilage groups was 34.3±5.8 and 18.1±4.9%, respectively. In the OA articular cartilage and OA loading articular cartilage groups, the positive expression areas were 13.17±4.2 and 6.4±2.7%, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in TRPV5 expression levels between the normal articular cartilage and loading articular cartilage groups, and between the OA articular cartilage and OA loading articular cartilage groups (P<0.001). TRPV5 is expressed in all bone cartilage tissues and its expression level depends on the load of the bone and joint. Therefore, this indicates that TRPV5 may play a role in the formation and development processes of cartilage tissues.

Abstract
The kidneys contribute to calcium homeostasis by adjusting the reabsorption and excretion of filtered calcium through processes that are regulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH) and 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25[OH]2D3). Most of the filtered calcium is reabsorbed in the proximal tubule, primarily by paracellular mechanisms that are not sensitive to calcium-regulating hormones in physiologically relevant ways. In the distal tubule, however, calcium is reabsorbed by channels and transporters, the activity or expression of which is highly regulated and increased by PTH and 1α,25(OH)2D3. Recent research suggests that other, heretofore unrecognized factors, such as the osteocyte-specific protein sclerostin, also regulate renal calcium excretion. Clues in this regard have come from the study of humans and mice with inactivating mutations of the sclerostin gene that both have increased skeletal density, which would necessitate an increase in intestinal absorption and/or renal reabsorption of calcium. Deletion of the sclerostin gene in mice significantly diminishes urinary calcium excretion and increases fractional renal calcium reabsorption. This is associated with increased circulating 1α,25(OH)2D3 levels, whereas sclerostin directly suppresses 1α-hydroxylase in immortalized proximal tubular cells. Thus, evidence is accumulating that sclerostin directly or indirectly reduces renal calcium reabsorption, suggesting the presence of a novel calcium-excreting bone-kidney axis.

Abstract
Background Serine hydrolases constitute a large enzyme family involved in a diversity of proteolytic and metabolic processes which are essential for many aspects of normal physiology. The roles of serine hydrolases in renal function are largely unknown and monitoring their activity may provide important insights into renal physiology. The goal of this study was to profile urinary serine hydrolases with activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) and to perform an in-depth compositional analysis. Methods Eighteen healthy individuals provided random, mid-stream urine samples. ABPP was performed by reacting urines (n = 18) with a rhodamine-tagged fluorophosphonate probe and visualizing on SDS-PAGE. Active serine hydrolases were isolated with affinity purification and identified on MS-MS. Enzyme activity was confirmed with substrate specific assays. A complementary 2D LC/MS-MS analysis was performed to evaluate the composition of serine hydrolases in urine. Results Enzyme activity was closely, but not exclusively, correlated with protein quantity. Affinity purification and MS/MS identified 13 active serine hydrolases. The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) and calcium channel (TRPV5) regulators, tissue kallikrein and plasmin were identified in active forms, suggesting a potential role in regulating sodium and calcium reabsorption in a healthy human model. Complement C1r subcomponent-like protein, mannan binding lectin serine protease 2 and myeloblastin (proteinase 3) were also identified in active forms. The in-depth compositional analysis identified 62 serine hydrolases in urine independent of activity state. Conclusions This study identified luminal regulators of electrolyte homeostasis in an active state in the urine, which suggests tissue kallikrein and plasmin may be functionally relevant in healthy individuals. Additional serine hydrolases were identified in an active form that may contribute to regulating innate immunity of the urinary tract. Finally, the optimized ABPP technique in urine demonstrates its feasibility, reproducibility and potential applicability to profiling urinary enzyme activity in different renal physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
The uriniferous tubule is divided into the proximal tubule, the intermediate (thin) tubule, the distal tubule and the collecting duct. The present chapter is based on the chapters by Maunsbach and Christensen on the proximal tubule, and by Kaissling and Kriz on the distal tubule and collecting duct in the 1992 edition of the Handbook of Physiology, Renal Physiology. It describes the fine structure (light and electron microscopy) of the entire mammalian uriniferous tubule, mainly in rats, mice, and rabbits. The structural data are complemented by recent data on the location of the major transport- and transport-regulating proteins, revealed by morphological means(immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and/or mRNA in situ hybridization). The structural differences along the uriniferous tubule strictly coincide with the distribution of the major luminal and basolateral transport proteins and receptors and both together provide the basis for the subdivision of the uriniferous tubule into functional subunits. Data on structural adaptation to defined functional changes in vivo and to genetical alterations of specified proteins involved in transepithelial transport importantly deepen our comprehension of the correlation of structure and function in the kidney, of the role of each segment or cell type in the overall renal function,and our understanding of renal pathophysiology.

Abstract
TRP channels constitute a large superfamily of cation channel forming proteins, all related to the gene product of the transient receptor potential (trp) locus in Drosophila. In mammals, 28 different TRP channel genes have been identified, which exhibit a large variety of functional properties and play diverse cellular and physiological roles. In this article, we provide a brief and systematic summary of expression, function, and (patho)physiological role of the mammalian TRP channels.

Abstract
Objective To review the inter-relationships between calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone (PTH), parent and activated vitamin D metabolites (vitamin D, 25(OH)-vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D, 24,25(OH)2-vitamin D), and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) during chronic kidney disease (CKD) in dogs and cats. Data Sources Human and veterinary literature. Human Data Synthesis Beneficial effects of calcitriol treatment during CKD have traditionally been attributed to regulation of PTH but new perspectives emphasize direct renoprotective actions independent of PTH and calcium. It is now apparent that calcitriol exerts an important effect on renal tubular reclamation of filtered 25(OH)-vitamin D, which may be important in maintaining adequate circulating 25(OH)-vitamin D. This in turn may be vital for important pleiotropic actions in peripheral tissues through autocrine/paracrine mechanisms that impact the health of those local tissues. Veterinary Data Synthesis Limited information is available reporting the benefit of calcitriol treatment in dogs and cats with CKD. Conclusions A survival benefit has been shown for dogs with CKD treated with calcitriol compared to placebo. The concentrations of circulating 25(OH)-vitamin D have recently been shown to be low in people and dogs with CKD and are related to survival in people with CKD. Combination therapy for people with CKD using both parental and activated vitamin D compounds is common in human nephrology and there is a developing emphasis using combination treatment with activated vitamin D and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) inhibitors.

Abstract
The function of dendritic cells (DCs), antigen-presenting cells regulating naïve T-cells, is regulated by cytosolic Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]i). [Ca²⁺]i is increased by store-operated Ca²⁺ entry and decreased by K⁺-independent (NCX) and K⁺-dependent (NCKX) Na⁺/Ca²⁺ exchangers. NCKX exchangers are stimulated by immunosuppressive 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)₂D₃], the biologically active form of vitamin D. Formation of 1,25(OH)₂D₃ is inhibited by the antiaging protein Klotho. Thus 1,25(OH)₂D₃ plasma levels are excessive in Klotho-deficient mice (klothohm). The present study explored whether Klotho deficiency modifies [Ca²⁺]i regulation in DCs. DCs were isolated from the bone marrow of klothohm mice and wild-type mice (klotho+/+) and cultured for 7-9 days with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. According to major histocompatibility complex II (MHC II) and CD86 expression, differentiation and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced maturation were similar in klothohm DCs and klotho+/+ DCs. However, NCKX1 membrane abundance and NCX/NCKX-activity were significantly enhanced in klothohm DCs. The [Ca²⁺]i increase upon acute application of LPS (1 μg/ml) was significantly lower in klothohm DCs than in klotho+/+ DCs, a difference reversed by the NCKX blocker 3',4'-dichlorobenzamyl (DBZ; 10 μM). CCL21-dependent migration was significantly less in klothohm DCs than in klotho+/+ DCs but could be restored by DBZ. NCKX activity was enhanced by pretreatment of klotho+/+ DC precursors with 1,25(OH)₂D₃ the first 2 days after isolation from bone marrow. Feeding klothohm mice a vitamin D-deficient diet decreased NCKX activity, augmented LPS-induced increase of [Ca²⁺]i, and enhanced migration of klothohm DCs, thus dissipating the differences between klothohm DCs and klotho+/+ DCs. In conclusion, Klotho deficiency upregulates NCKX1 membrane abundance and Na⁺/Ca²⁺-exchange activity, thus blunting the increase of [Ca²⁺]i following LPS exposure and CCL21-mediated migration. The effects are in large part due to excessive 1,25(OH)₂D₃ formation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Recent studies have provided compelling evidence that tissue kallikrein exerts kinin-independent effects on several renal transporters including the epithelial Na⁺ channel (ENaC), the epithelial calcium channel TRPV5 (transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subtype 5), and the colonic H⁺,K⁺-ATPase. This review focuses on the role of tissue kallikrein in the regulation of renal sodium and potassium handling. RECENT FINDINGS Tissue kallikrein is a serine protease involved in the generation of kinins in many organs including the kidney, and most of the renal tissue kallikrein function involves its ability to generate kinins. Tissue kallikrein, through its catalytic activity, acts directly on ENaC in order to modulate its activity but is not critical for the regulation of renal sodium homeostasis. Tissue kallikrein deficient mice exhibit net transepithelial K⁺ absorption in cortical collecting ducts because of abnormal activation of the colonic H⁺,K⁺-ATPase in intercalated cells and reduced K⁺ secretion by principal cells secondary to decreased ENaC activity. Tissue kallikrein is a kaliuretic factor that provides a rapid and aldosterone-independent protection against hyperkalemia after a dietary K⁺load. SUMMARY Tissue kallikrein produced by connecting tubule cells regulates apical transporters by acting from the tubular lumen. Studies have demonstrated the existence of autocrine/paracrine regulatory mechanisms of K⁺ transport in the distal nephron.

Abstract
Epididymal lithiasis is a reproductive dysfunction of roosters that is associated with loss of fertility and is characterized by the formation of calcium stones in the lumen of the efferent ductules of the epididymal region. The efferent ductules of birds are responsible for the reabsorption of the fluid coming from the testis as well as luminal calcium. It has been hypothesized that the epididymal stone formation may be related to the impairment of local fluid or calcium homeostasis, which depends on hormones such as estradiol (E2). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate possible alterations in the expression of ERα (ESR1) and ERβ (ESR2) in the epididymal region of roosters affected by epididymal lithiasis. The study was performed by immunohistochemistry and western blotting assays. In addition, the concentrations of E2, vitamin D3, and testosterone, which are also key hormones in maintenance of calcium homeostasis, were determined in the plasma and epididymal region, by ELISA. It was observed that ESR2 expression is increased in all segments of the epididymal region of affected roosters, whereas ESR1 levels are not altered. Moreover, the hormone concentration profiles were changed, as in the epididymal region of roosters with lithiasis the E2levels were increased and vitamin D3 as well as testosterone concentrations were significantly decreased. These results suggest that a hormonal imbalance may be involved with the origin and progression of the epididymal lithiasis, possibly by affecting the local fluid or calcium homeostasis.

Abstract
TRPV5 and TRPV6 are unique members of the TRP super family. They are highly selective for Ca(2+) ions with multiple layers of Ca(2+)-dependent inactivation mechanisms, expressed at the apical membrane of Ca(2+) transporting epithelia, and robustly responsive to 1,25-dihydroxivitamin D(3). These features are well suited for their roles as Ca(2+) entry channels in the first step of transcellular Ca(2+) transport pathways, which are involved in intestinal absorption, renal reabsorption of Ca(2+), placental transfer of Ca(2+) to fetus, and many other processes. While TRPV6 is more broadly expressed in a variety of tissues such as esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, kidney, placenta, pancreas, prostate, uterus, salivary gland, and sweat gland, TRPV5 expression is relatively restricted to the distal convoluted tubule and connecting tubule of the kidney. There is only one TRPV6-like gene in fish and birds in comparison to both TRPV5 and TRPV6 genes in mammals, indicating TRPV5 gene was likely generated from duplication of TRPV6 gene during the evolution of mammals to meet the needs of complex renal function. TRPV5 and TRPV6 are subjected to vigorous regulations under physiological, pathological, and therapeutic conditions. The elevated TRPV6 level in malignant tumors such as prostate and breast cancers makes it a potential therapeutic target. TRPV6, and to a lesser extent TRPV5, exhibit unusually high levels of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in African populations as compared to other populations, indicating TRPV6 gene was under selective pressure during or after humans migrated out of Africa. The SNPs of TRPV6 and TRPV5 likely contribute to the Ca(2+) conservation mechanisms in African populations.

Abstract
Klotho is a membrane protein participating in the inhibitory effect of FGF23 on the formation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)]. It participates in the regulation of renal tubular phosphate reabsorption and stimulates renal tubular Ca(2+) reabsorption. Klotho hypomorphic mice (klotho(hm)) suffer from severe growth deficit, rapid aging, and early death, events largely reversed by a vitamin D-deficient diet. The present study explored the role of Klotho deficiency in mineral and electrolyte metabolism. To this end, klotho(hm) mice and wild-type mice (klotho(+/+)) were subjected to a normal (D(+)) or vitamin D-deficient (D(-)) diet or to a vitamin D-deficient diet for 4 wk and then to a normal diet (D(-/+)). At the age of 8 wk, body weight was significantly lower in klotho(hm)D(+) mice than in klotho(+/+)D(+) mice, klotho(hm)D(-) mice, and klotho(hm)D(-/+) mice. Plasma concentrations of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3,) adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), and aldosterone were significantly higher in klotho(hm)D(+) mice than in klotho(+/+)D(+) mice. Plasma volume was significantly smaller in klotho(hm)D(-/+) mice, and plasma urea, Ca(2+), phosphate and Na(+), but not K(+) concentrations were significantly higher in klotho(hm)D(+) mice than in klotho(+/+)D(+) mice. The differences were partially abrogated by a vitamin D-deficient diet. Moreover, the hyperaldosteronism was partially reversed by Ca(2+)-deficient diet. Ussing chamber experiments revealed a marked increase in amiloride-sensitive current across the colonic epithelium, pointing to enhanced epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity. A salt-deficient diet tended to decrease and a salt-rich diet significantly increased the life span of klotho(hm)D(+) mice. In conclusion, the present observation disclose that the excessive formation of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) in Klotho-deficient mice results in extracellular volume depletion, which significantly contributes to the shortening of life span.

Abstract
Klotho, a membrane protein mainly expressed in parathyroid glands, kidney, and choroid plexus, counteracts aging and increases the life span. Accordingly, life span is significantly shorter in Klotho-deficient mice (klotho(-/-)) than in their wild-type littermates (klotho(+/+)). The pleotropic effects of Klotho include inhibition of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)(1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) formation. Vitamin D-deficient diet reverses the shortening of life span in klotho(-/-) mice. In a variety of cells, 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulates Ca(2+) entry. In erythrocytes, increased Ca(2+) entry stimulates suicidal erythrocyte death, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and phosphatidylserine exposure at the erythrocyte surface. The present study explored the putative impact of Klotho on eryptosis. According to Fluo3 fluorescence, cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was significantly larger in klotho(-/-) erythrocytes as compared to klotho(+/+) erythrocytes. According to annexin V-binding, phosphatidylserine exposure was significantly enhanced, and according to forward scatter, cell volume significantly decreased in klotho(-/-) erythrocytes as compared to klotho(+/+) erythrocytes. Energy depletion (13 h glucose depletion) and oxidative stress (35 min 1 mM tert-butyl-hydroxyl-peroxide [tert-BOOH]) increased phosphatidylserine exposure to values again significantly larger in klotho(-/-) erythrocytes as compared to klotho(+/+) erythrocytes. Reticulocyte number was significantly increased in klotho (-/-) mice, pointing to enhanced erythrocyte turnover. Vitamin D-deficient diet reversed the enhanced Ca(2+) entry and annexin V-binding of klotho(-/-) erythrocytes. The present observations reveal a novel function of Klotho, i.e., the at least partially vitamin D-dependent regulation of cytosolic Ca(2+) activity in and suicidal death of erythrocytes.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 5 (TRPV5) constitutes the apical entry pathway for transepithelial Ca2+reabsorption in kidney. Many hormones alter renal Ca2+reabsorption at least partly by regulating TRPV5. The mechanism for acute regulation of TRPV5 by phospholipase C-coupled hormones is largely unknown. Here, we found that protein kinase C (PKC) activator 1-oleoyl-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG) increased TRPV5 current density and surface abundance in cultured cells. The OAG-mediated increase of TRPV5 was prevented by preincubation with specific PKC inhibitors. Coexpression with a dominant-negative dynamin increased the basal TRPV5 current density and prevented the increase by OAG. Knockdown of caveolin-1 by small interference RNA (siRNA) prevented the increase of TRPV5 by OAG. In contrast, knockdown of clathrin heavy chain had no effects. OAG had no effect on TRPV5 expressed in caveolin-1 null cells derived from caveolin-1 knockout mice. Forced expression of recombinant caveolin-1 restored the regulation of TRPV5 by OAG in caveolin-1 knockout cells. Mutations of serine-299 and/or serine-654 of TRPV5 (consensus residues for phosphorylation by PKC) abolished the regulation by OAG. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) increased TRPV5 current density in cells coexpressing TRPV5 and type 1 PTH receptor. The increase caused by PTH was prevented by PKC inhibitor, mutation of serine-299/serine-654, or by knockdown of caveolin-1. Thus, TRPV5 undergoes constitutive caveolae-mediated endocytosis. Activation of PKC increases cell surface abundance of TRPV5 by inhibiting the endocytosis. This mechanism of regulation by PKC may contribute to the acute stimulation of TRPV5 and renal Ca2+reabsorption by PTH.
