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.

Liu J, Xie ZJ. The sodium pump and cardiotonic steroids-induced signal transduction protein kinases and calcium-signaling microdomain in regulation of transporter trafficking. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2010; 1802:1237-45.

Abstract
The Na/K-ATPase was discovered as an energy transducing ion pump. A major difference between the Na/K-ATPase and other P-type ATPases is its ability to bind a group of chemicals called cardiotonic steroids (CTS). The plant-derived CTS such as digoxin are valuable drugs for the management of cardiac diseases, whereas ouabain and marinobufagenin (MBG) have been identified as a new class of endogenous hormones. Recent studies have demonstrated that the endogenous CTS are important regulators of renal Na(+) excretion and blood pressure. The Na/K-ATPase is not only an ion pump, but also an important receptor that can transduce the ligand-like effect of CTS on intracellular protein kinases and Ca(2+) signaling. Significantly, these CTS-provoked signaling events are capable of reducing the surface expression of apical NHE3 (Na/H exchanger isoform 3) and basolateral Na/K-ATPase in renal proximal tubular cells. These findings suggest that endogenous CTS may play an important role in regulation of tubular Na(+) excretion under physiological conditions; conversely, a defect at either the receptor level (Na/K-ATPase) or receptor-effector coupling would reduce the ability of renal proximal tubular cells to excrete Na(+), thus culminating/resulting in salt-sensitive hypertension.

Abstract
Previous studies propose 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a major arachidonic acid metabolite of cytochrome P-450 (CYP), as a possible mediator of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibition by dopamine (DA). The aim of this study was to investigate the intracellular mechanisms involved in this effect and to elucidate the DA receptor associated with the 20-HETE pathway in the rat kidney. DA (10(-5) M) inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in microdissected tubular segments to 59.4 +/- 3.8% of control activity. This response was suppressed by the CYP4A inhibitor 17-octadecynoic acid (10(-6) M), which had no effect per se, thus confirming the participation of CYP arachidonic acid metabolites in DA-induced Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibition. We next examined whether 20-HETE is involved in the signaling pathways triggered by either D(1) or D(2) receptors. Neither fenoldopam nor quinpirole (D(1) and D(2) agonists, respectively, both 10(-5) M) modified Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity when tried alone. However, coincubation of a threshold concentration of 20-HETE (10(-9) M) with fenoldopam resulted in a synergistic inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity (66 +/- 2% of control activity), while 20-HETE plus quinpirole had no effect. Furthermore, 20-HETE (10(-9) M) synergized with forskolin (10(-5) M) and with the diacylglycerol analog 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl-sn-glycerol (OAG; 10(-11) M; 62.0 +/- 5.3 and 69.9 +/- 2.0% of control activity, respectively), indicating a cooperative role of 20-HETE with the D(1)-triggered pathways. In line with these results, no additive effect was observed when OAG and 20-HETE were combined at concentrations which per se produced maximal inhibition (10(-6) M). These results demonstrate that the inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by DA in the proximal tubule may be the result of the synergism between 20-HETE and the D(1) signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dopamine is a principal natriuretic hormone in mammalian Na+ homeostasis. Dopamine acutely alters glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and decreases Na+ absorption in both the proximal and distal nephron. Proximal tubule natriuresis is effected through inhibition of the apical membrane Na/H exchanger NHE3. METHODS We examined whether dopamine directly and acutely decreases apical membrane NHE3 protein using renal tissue in two in vitro systems: renal cortical slices and in vitro perfused single tubules. After incubation with dopamine, NHE3 activity was measured by 22Na flux and NHE3 antigen was measured by immunoblot in apical membrane and total cellular membranes. RESULTS Direct application of dopamine to either cortical slices or microperfused tubules acutely decreases NHE3 activity and antigen at the apical membrane of the proximal tubule. No change in total cellular NHE3 was detected. CONCLUSION One mechanism by which dopamine causes natriuresis is via direct and acute reduction of NHE3 protein at the apical membrane via changes in NHE3 protein trafficking.

Abstract
(1) This study examined the effects of dopamine D(1)- and D(2)-like receptor activation upon basolateral K(+) (I(K)) currents and changes in membrane potential in opossum kidney (OK) cells. (2) The addition of amphotericin B (3 micro g ml(-1)) to the apical side resulted in a rapid increase in I(K), this effect being markedly inhibited by the addition of the K(+) channel blockers barium chloride (1 mM) or glibenclamide (10 micro M), but not apamin (1 micro M). The K(+) channel opener pinacidil increased the amphotericin B-induced I(K). The selective D(2)-like receptor agonist quinerolane increased, in a concentration dependent manner (EC(50)=136 nM), I(K) across the basolateral membrane, this effect being abolished by pre-treatment with pertussis toxin (PTX), S-sulpiride (selective D(2)-like receptor antagonist) and glibenclamide. The selective D(1)-like receptor agonist SKF 38393 did not change I(K). Both H-89 (PKA inhibitor) and chelerythrine (PKC inhibitor) failed to prevent the stimulatory effect of quinerolane upon I(K). (3) Quinerolane did not change basal levels of cyclic AMP and also failed to affect the forskolin-induced increase in cyclic AMP levels. (4) The stimulation of D(2)-like receptor was associated with a rapid hyperpolarizing effect, whereas D(1)-like receptor activation was accompanied by increases in cell membrane potential. The hyperpolarizing effect of quinerolane (EC(50)=129 nM) was prevented by pre-treatment with PTX, S-sulpiride and glibenclamide. (5) It is concluded that stimulation of dopamine D(2)-like, but not D(1)-like, receptors coupled to PTX-sensitive G proteins of the G(i/o) class produce membrane hyperpolarization through opening of K(ATP) channels.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of D2-like dopamine receptor activation on Na+-K+-ATPase activity while apical-to-basal, ouabain-sensitive, amphotericin B-induced increases in short-circuit current and basolateral K+ (I(K)) currents in opossum kidney cells were measured. The inhibitory effect of dopamin on Na+-K+-ATPase activity was completely abolished by either D1- or D2-like receptor antagonists and mimicked by D1- and D2-like receptor agonists SKF-38393 and quinerolane, respectively. Blockade of basolateral K+ channels with BaCl2 (1 mM) or glibenclamide (10 microM), but not apamin (1 microM), totally prevented the inhibitory effects of quinerolane. The K+ channel opener pinacidil decreased Na+-K+-ATPase activity. The inhibitory effect of quinerolane on Na+-K+- ATPase activity was abolished by pretreatment of opossum kidney cells with pertussis toxin (PTX). Quinerolane increased I(K) across the basolateral membrane in a concentration-dependent manner; this effect was abolished by pretreatment with PTX, S-sulpiride, and glibenclamide. SKF-38393 did not change I(K). Both H-89 (protein kinase A inhibitor) and chelerythrine (protein kinase C inhibitor) failed to prevent the stimulatory effect of quinerolane on I(K). The stimulation of the D2-like receptor was associated with a rapid hyperpolarizing effect, whereas D1-like receptor activation was accompanied by increases in cell membrane potential. It is concluded that stimulation of D2-like receptors leads to inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase activity and hyperpolarization; both effects are associated with the opening of K+ channels.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is a key hormone in mammalian sodium homeostasis. DA induces natriuresis via acute inhibition of the renal proximal tubule apical membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. We examined the mechanism by which DA inhibits NHE3 in a renal cell line. DA acutely decreases surface NHE3 antigen in dose- and time-dependent fashion without altering total cellular NHE3. Although DA(1) receptor agonist alone decreases surface NHE3, simultaneous DA(2) agonist synergistically enhances the effect of DA(1). Decreased surface NHE3 antigen, caused by stimulation of NHE3 endocytosis, is dependent on intact functioning of the GTPase dynamin and involves increased binding of NHE3 to the adaptor protein AP2. DA-stimulated NHE3 endocytosis can be blocked by pharmacologic or genetic protein kinase A inhibition or by mutation of two protein kinase A target serines (Ser-560 and Ser-613) on NHE3. We conclude that one mechanism by which DA induces natriuresis is via protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of proximal tubule NHE3 leading to endocytosis of NHE3 via clathrin-coated vesicles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dopamine (DA) is a principal natriuretic hormone that defends extracellular fluid volume from a Na load. Natriuresis is effected partly through inhibiting the proximal tubule Na/H exchanger NHE-3. Changes in NHE-3 phosphorylation is one mechanism by which NHE-3 activity is regulated. METHODS We used opossum kidney (OK) cells to characterize the differential and synergistic effects of DA receptor subtype-1 (DA1) and -2 (DA2) agonists and the effect of blockade of protein kinase A (PKA) or protein kinase C (PKC) on NHE-3 activity and phosphorylation. RESULTS DA and DA1 agonists inhibited NHE-3 activity, and DA1 antagonist blocked the effect of either DA or DA1 agonist. DA2 agonist alone had no effect, but DA2 antagonist reduced the DA effect on NHE-3 activity. DA1 and DA2 agonists together were more potent than DA1 alone. PKA inhibition eliminated the effect of DA1 agonist and partially blocked the effect of DA on NHE-3 activity. PKC inhibition did not block the DA effect. DA1 agonist and PKA activation phosphorylated NHE-3 on identical sites. Despite lack of effect on NHE-3 activity, DA2 agonists increased NHE-3 phosphorylation. DA-induced NHE-3 phosphorylation was distinct from DA1 and PKA but closely resembled DA2. CONCLUSION We postulate the following: (1) DA modifies NHE-3 phosphorylation by activating PKA through DA1 and by other kinases/phosphatases via DA2. (2) DA1 is sufficient to inhibit NHE-3, while DA2 is insufficient but plays a synergistic role by altering NHE-3 phosphorylation.

Abstract
The use of dopamine for the prevention and treatment of acute renal failure is widespread. Its use is based on physiology suggesting selective renal vasodilation when it is infused at low dose. This article reviews the available data on the clinical use of dopamine. When used to prevent acute renal failure in high-risk treatments there is no evidence of benefit of dopamine but, given the low incidence of significant renal failure, the studies are underpowered. In treatment of acute renal failure, the quality of the data is poor. Only in one small randomised trial of moderate acute renal failure in patients with malaria was a clinically significant benefit of dopamine shown. The rest of the data, in the form of case series, showed either no benefit of dopamine or small benefits of little clinical significance. Again, these studies are of insufficient power for conclusions to be drawn as to the overall benefits and risks. We conclude that benefits of dopamine use cannot be ruled out by currently available data but its use cannot be advised until trials examining clinically important endpoints in large numbers of patients have been performed.

Abstract
AIM Defective dopamine D1A dopamine receptor/G-protein coupling has been demonstrated in renal proximal tubules of the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). In the present study, we aimed to analyze the underlying mechanisms through which such defects are introduced into the D1A receptor protein of SHR. MATERIALS AND METHODS The oxidative state of SHR proximal tubules was analyzed by measuring lipid peroxidation. D1A receptor/G-protein coupling was measured following the induction of oxidative stress in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. RESULTS For the first time, an increased state of oxidative stress was demonstrated in SHR proximal tubules compared with those of normotensive controls, WKY and Sprague-Dawley rats. Lipid peroxidation levels in SHR were significantly higher by 66 and 79%, relative to WKY or Sprague-Dawley rats, respectively. Hydrogen peroxide treatment of proximal tubules from SHR, WKY and Sprague-Dawley rats induced an additional increase in lipid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner, although the percentage induction was lower in SHR than in WKY and Sprague-Dawley rats. This induction of lipid peroxidation in WKY rats resulted in a loss of D1A/G-protein coupling, with no decrease in receptor protein. Treatment of WKY rat proximal tubules with an antioxidant, ascorbic acid, or a reducing agent, dithiothreitol, induced D1A receptor/G-protein coupling. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that D1A receptor/G-protein coupling is modulated by changes in redox states. Therefore, the D1A receptor/G-protein coupling in SHR may have been damaged by reactive oxygen species released as a result of the elevated oxidative stress seen in the proximal tubules.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Defective D1A dopamine receptor-G protein coupling has been identified in renal proximal tubules of the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). OBJECTIVE To determine whether association of D1A dopamine receptors with the alpha subunits of G proteins in kidney of SHR is normal. METHODS We analyzed the association of agonist-activated [1251]-labeled D1A dopamine receptors in kidneys of SHR and the normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat through immunoprecipitation, using highly specific antipeptide antibodies directed against alpha subunits of G proteins. RESULTS We have shown for the first time that the D1A receptors of renal proximal tubules are associated with the adenylyl cyclase inhibitory G proteins G(i)alpha. The association of WKY rat proximal tubule D1A receptors with Gi1alpha and Gi2alpha in the presence of agonist is significantly (P<0.01) greater (2.4-fold and 3.1-fold greater, respectively) than it is without agonist D1A receptors of WKY rat also exhibit (twofold greater) association with G(s)alpha, consistently with the ability of these receptors to mediate stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. The WKY rat D1A receptors do not associate either with G(o)alpha or with G(q)alpha. The D1A receptors of SHR proximal tubule membranes appear to be resistant to activation by agonist and do not associate with G(s)alpha, G(o)alpha and any of the subunits of G(i)alpha. However, the SHR D1A sites exhibit a modestly (1.7-fold) greater association with G(q)alpha, which was not statistically significant. The differences among associations of the D1A receptors of WKY rat and SHR with these Galpha proteins may be important in understanding renal dopaminergic functions in normal and pathophysiologic states.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at the uptake of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-dopa) and its intracellular decarboxylation to dopamine. The accumulation of L-dopa from the apical side in cells cultured in collagen-treated plastic was found to be a saturable process with a Michaelis constant (Km) of 123 +/- 17 microM and a maximal velocity (Vmax) of 6.0 +/- 0.2 nmol.mg protein-1.6 min-1. The uptake of L-dopa applied from either the apical or basal cell borders in cells cultured in polycarbonate filters was also found to be saturable; nonlinear analysis of saturation curves for apical and basal application revealed Km values of 63.8 +/- 17.0 and 42.5 +/- 9.6 microM and Vmax values of 32.0 +/- 5.8 and 26.2 +/- 3.4 nmol.mg protein-1.6 min-1, respectively. Cell monolayers incubated with L-dopa, applied from either the apical or the basal side, in the absence of benserazide, led to the accumulation of newly formed dopamine. The intracellular accumulation of newly formed dopamine was a saturable process with apparent Km values of 20.5 +/- 8.2 and 247.3 +/- 76.8 microM when the substrate was applied from the apical and basal side, respectively. Some of the newly formed dopamine escaped to the extracellular milieu. The basal outward transfer of dopamine was five- to sevenfold of that occurring at the apical side and was uniform over a wide range of concentrations of intracellular dopamine; the apical outward transfer of the amine depended on the intracellular concentration of dopamine and was a nonsaturable process. The apical and basal outward transfers of dopamine were insensitive to cocaine (10 and 30 microM) and GBR-12909 (1 and 3 microM). The accumulation of exogenous dopamine in LLC-PK1 cells was found to be saturable; nonlinear analysis of the saturation curves revealed for the apical and basal application of dopamine a Km of 17.7 +/- 4.3 and 96.0 +/- 28.1 microM and a Vmax of 2.0 +/- 0.1 and 2.2 +/- 0.3 nmol.mg protein-1.6 min-1, respectively. However, both cocaine (10, 30, or 100 microM) and GBR-12909 (1 or 3 microM) were found not to affect the uptake of 100 microM dopamine applied from either the apical or the basal cell border. In conclusion, the data presented here show that LLC-PK1 cells are endowed with considerable aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) activity and transport L-dopa quite efficiently through both the apical and basal cell borders. On the other hand, our observations support the possibility of a basal-to-apical gradient of AADC activity and the possibility that LLC-PK1 cells might constitute an interesting in vitro model for the study of the renal dopaminergic physiology.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to determine whether dopamine affects NaCl reabsorption in the medullary thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. Basolateral dopamine (10(-6) M) significantly inhibited Cl- reabsorption in the in vitro microperfused rat medullary thick ascending limb by 21 +/- 2% (P < 0.01). The response to 10(-6) M dopamine was completely blocked by pretreatment with the dopamine D1 receptor antagonist R(+)-SCH-23390 (5 x 10(-5) M), and was mimicked by the dopamine D1 receptor agonist A-77636 (10(-6) M; delta - 36 +/- 2%; P < 0.05). In contrast, basolateral administration of the dopamine D2 receptor agonist (+)-bromocriptine (10(-6) M) transiently increased Cl- reabsorption by 49 +/- 18% (P < 0.05). Neither the D1 nor the D2 agonist affected Cl- reabsorption when selectively administered to the luminal membrane. These data suggest that the predominant effect of dopamine on the medullary thick ascending limb of the rat is to inhibit the reabsorption of NaCl, a response which is mediated by dopamine D1 receptors.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the rat Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1-isoform is phosphorylated at Ser-943 by protein kinase A (PKA) and at Ser-23 by protein kinase C (PKC), which in both cases results in inhibition of enzyme activity. We now present evidence that suggests that the phosphorylation of Ser-943 by PKA modulates the response of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase to PKC. Rat Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 or a mutant in which Ser-943 was changed to Ala-943 was stably expressed in COS cells. The inhibition of enzyme activity measured in response to treatment with the phorbol ester, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu; 10(-6) M), was significantly reduced in the cells expressing the Ala-943 mutant compared with that observed in cells expressing wild-type enzyme. In contrast, for cells expressing Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 in which Ser-943 was mutated to Asp-943, the effect of PDBu was slightly enhanced. The PDBu-induced inhibition was not mediated by activation of the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate/PKA system and was not achieved via direct phosphorylation of Ser-943. Sp-5,6-DCI-cBIMPS, a specific PKA activator, increased the phosphorylation of Ser-943, and this was associated with an enhanced response to PDBu. Thus the effect of PKC on rat Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 is determined not only by the activity of PKC but also by the state of phosphorylation of Ser-943.

Abstract
Renal DA-1 dopamine receptors in proximal tubules (PTs) of the Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat display pharmacological binding properties which are different from central nervous system (CNS) striatal D-1 dopamine receptors. In general, the renal DA-1 receptors display affinity binding values of dopaminergic drugs which are 6-36-fold less than those seen for brain D-1 receptors. The renal and brain DA receptors also displayed differential sensitivity toward the alkylating agent, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). Inactivation of 50% of DA-1 renal receptors was achieved at lower concentrations of NEM (5.2 microM), relative to brain D-1 receptors (140 microM). Western blot analyses of rat pituitary GH4C1 cells, transfected with human CNS D-1 receptor cDNA, with human anti-D-1 dopamine receptor antiserum, detected a single polypeptide with M(r) of 66 kDa. In PTs, a specific polypeptide of higher molecular weight (M(r) = 72 kDa) was seen. Surprisingly, in rat striatal membranes, the D-1 antiserum failed to detect any proteins within this molecular weight range. Photoaffinity labeling studies with a DA-1 selective photoligand, identified the identical protein by autoradiography and Western blots in kidney, but not in striate. Together, these data indicate that renal DA-1 dopamine receptors have distinct molecular properties relative to brain D-1 dopamine receptors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysfunctional dopamine neurotransmission and defective D1A receptor-G protein coupling exist in renal proximal tubules (RPT) of the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). OBJECTIVE To determine whether the G proteins in SHR are abnormal, preventing formation of agonist high affinity sites in SHR. METHODS We examined the expression levels of the alpha-subunits of G proteins, as well as D1A receptor receptor coupling to exogenously added normal G proteins, in RPT of SHR and the normotensive Wister-Kyoto (WKY) rat. RESULTS In the presence of 110 mmol/l NaCl, the D1A dopamine receptor-selective agonist SKF R-38393 binds both to high- and to low-affinity sites on solubilized and reconstituted D1A receptors extracted from renal proximal tubules of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. In the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), SKF R-38393 bound to a single site on the reconstituted receptor with affinity values corresponding to the low-affinity state of the receptor. Western blot analyses indicated that the alpha-subunit of the guanine nucleotide binding protein (G-protein), Gs, was expressed at similar levels, whereas G(o)alpha was not expressed in proximal tubule membranes from WKY rats and SHR. Pretreatment of proximal tubule membranes with the alkylating agent N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of SKF R-38393 inactivated alpha-subunits of endogenous G-proteins, but not D1A receptors, resulting in loss of high-affinity binding sites in WKY rats. These N-ethylmaleimide-treated D1A receptors from WKY rats, when reconstituted with exogenous sources of G-proteins, were able to couple to these exogenous G-proteins, with complete restoration of high-affinity sites. Moreover, the affinity values and the proportion of these hybrid sites were similar to those of untreated receptors, and these affinity sites were regulated by guanine nucleotide analogs. Reconstitution of D1A receptors from SHR with the same exogenous G-proteins failed to similarly induce formation of the high-affinity binding sites in the hybrid reconstituted systems, and SKF R-38393 continued to bind in a single low-affinity state of the receptor. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that the absence of G-protein coupling in SHR is due to intrinsic defects within the receptor protein, rather than to any abnormalities of the endogenous G-proteins themselves.

Abstract
Dopamine and a new group of selective and nonselective peripheral dopaminergic receptor effectors are being evaluated for the treatment of various cardiovascular disorders, including shock, CHF, and systemic hypertension. Dopamine, in relatively low intravenous doses, will stimulate both peripheral DA1 receptors, which mediate arterial vasodilation of different vascular beds, and the DA2 receptors, which mediate the inhibition of norepinephrine release. Ibopamine is a new oral, nonspecific peripheral dopaminergic agonist with an active metabolite (epinine) that is being evaluated in patients with CHF. Fenoldopam is a selective peripheral DA1 agonist now being developed as a parenteral treatment for hypertensive emergencies. Dopexamine is a parenteral agent that selectively activates both DA1 and beta 2 adrenergic receptors and is being evaluated in patients with CHF and in individuals with postoperative left ventricular dysfunction. A group of selective DA2 receptor agonists is being evaluated as long-term treatment for systemic hypertension.

Abstract
Acute renal failure (ARF) was induced in rats by intramuscular injection of 50% glycerol, 10 mL/kg body weight. Rats were given isotonic saline (1.5 mL/h) dopexamine hydrochloride (dopexamine, 100 microg/h) or dopamine (100 microg/h), commencing either immediately after glycerol administration and maintained during all the observation time (90 min, acute studies) or 20 min before administration of glycerol and during 60 min (chronic studies). Renal function was assessed during 90 min after induction of ARF in anesthetized rats and during 3 days following ARF induction in conscious animals. In anesthetized rats treated with dopexamine or dopamine, the reduction in insulin and para-aminohippuric acid clearance was markedly lower than that observed in untreated animals. In conscious animals, urinary flow and creatinine clearance were higher in rats treated with dopamine or dopexamine than in the non-treated group. Rats treated with dopexamine had higher renal Na+ and K+ excretion than dopamine-treated rats. Survival was higher in the dopexamine group than in either of the other two groups. These results demonstrate that pretreatment with dopexamine or dopamine significantly improves the course of ARF, with better survival after treatment with dopexamine.

Abstract
Coupling between D-1 dopamine receptors and G proteins in cell lines expressing human D-1 receptors and different G proteins was examined. Pertussis toxin (PTX) treatment of rat pituitary GH4C1 cells significantly reduced, but did not abolish, agonist high affinity binding sites of the D-1 dopamine receptor; in SK-N-MC neuroblastoma cells, PTX failed to have any effect on D-1 high affinity sites. Cholera toxin (CTX) treatment of GH4C1 cells reduced but did not abolish the high affinity sites of D-1 receptors, while in SK-N-MC cells, treatment with CTX abolished all the high affinity sites. Western blot analyses with specific antisera indicated that Gs alpha, Gi1 alpha, Gi3 alpha, and Gq alpha were expressed in both cell lines, while Gi2 alpha and G(o) alpha were expressed in GH4C1 but not SK-N-MC cells. Antisera NEI-805 (anti-Gs alpha) and 9072 (anti-G(o) alpha) immunoprecipitated 24 +/- 4.3 and 34.4 +/- 6.9%, respectively, of G protein-associated D-1 dopamine receptors. Antisera 3646 (anti-Gi1 alpha), 1521 (anti-Gi2 alpha), 1518 (anti-Gi3 alpha), and 0941 (anti-Gq alpha) failed to coimmunoprecipitate appreciable levels of soluble receptors. These data indicate that D-1 dopamine receptors are coupled to both Gs alpha and G(o) alpha but not to Gq alpha.

Abstract
Dopamine decreases tubular sodium reabsorption, attributed in part to Na-K-ATPase inhibition in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). Because the final regulation of sodium excretion occurs in the collecting duct, where specific dopamine DA1 binding sites have been demonstrated, we examined the effects of dopamine, as well as of DA1 and DA2 receptor agonists on Na-K-ATPase activity and on the number of units in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, which retain differentiated properties of the renal cortical collecting tubule epithelium. Dopamine (10(-5) M) inhibited pump activity (by 50%) and reduced the number of units. This effect was reproduced by the DA1 agonist SKF 38393, which inhibited pump activity in a dose- and time-dependent manner (maximum, 10(-5) M). The DA2 agonist quinpirole hydrochloride was without effect, either alone or in combination with SKF 38393. Inhibition of pump activity by dopamine was totally abolished by H7 (100 microM), an inhibitor of protein kinase (PK), but partially by 2',5'-dideoxy-adenosine (DDA) and H4, respective inhibitors of cAMP production and PKA, which suggests that the dopamine effect on Na-K-ATPase activity may be linked to activation of both PKC and PKA. In these cells, amiloride addition during preincubation did not alter the effect of dopamine on Na-K-ATPase activity; in contrast, furosemide increased further the inhibitory effect of dopamine on the enzyme activity. Monensin addition (10(-3) M) reversed the inhibitory effect of dopamine after a 30-min preincubation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Dopamine decreases tubular sodium reabsorption, attributed in part to Na/K-ATPase inhibition in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). Because the final regulation of sodium excretion occurs in the collecting duct, where we have demonstrated specific dopamine DA1 binding sites, we examined the effects of dopamine, and of DA1 and DA2 receptor agonists on the Na/K pump in the microdissected rat cortical collecting duct (CCD) and in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, a line derived from the dog distal nephron. Dopamine inhibited pump activity in CCD by approximately 40%-50%, an effect proportionally larger than in the PCT. Unlike in the latter, the effect of dopamine was reproduced by the DA1 agonist fenoldopam, which inhibited the CCD pump in dose-dependent manner (maximum, 10 microM). The DA2 agonist quinpirole was without effect, either alone or in combination with fenoldopam. These actions on Na/K-ATPase paralleled in reciprocal fashion effects on adenylate cyclase: dopamine or fenoldopam, but not quinpirole, produced a significant increase in cAMP content, and the stimulation by dopamine was blocked by SCH 23390. Inhibitors of cAMP phosphodiesterase (3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine and theophylline), as well as forskolin and dibutyryl-cAMP, mimicked the effect of dopamine on the pump, underscoring the role of increased cAMP in this phenomenon. Both dopamine and fenoldopam inhibited Na/K-ATPase activity in MDCK cells. The results indicate that besides the PCT dopamine inhibits Na/K-ATPase activity in cells of the distal nephron, where its effect on the pump appears to be more pronounced and is mediated by activation of the DA1 receptor. The natriuretic effect of dopamine is probably exerted at both proximal and distal nephron sites.

Abstract
Pretreatment of striatal membranes with N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of a D1-specific agonist inactivated endogenous guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins), but not D1 dopamine receptors, resulting in a loss of high-affinity agonist binding sites. Such D1 receptors were solubilized, mixed with exogenous G proteins from cells not containing D1 receptors, and reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles. These reconstituted receptors were able to couple to the exogenous G proteins, and the proportion of agonist high-affinity sites of the receptor (40-57%) was similar to levels obtained with naive receptors coupling to endogenous G proteins (40%) upon solubilization and reconstitution. These hybrid high-affinity sites were fully modulated by guanine nucleotides. Pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin prior to extraction of G proteins resulted in a 50% decrease in the proportion of high-affinity sites; these sites remained sensitive to guanine nucleotides. When D1 receptors were reconstituted with extracts of cyc- cells, which lack stimulatory G proteins, the proportion of high-affinity sites was reduced to 31% of the total. Pertussis toxin treatment of the cyc- cells completely abolished the formation of high-affinity sites. These results demonstrate that D1-dopaminergic receptors are able to couple to not only stimulatory G proteins (Gs), but also to inhibitory G proteins (Gi).

Abstract
Dopamine exerts numerous actions on the kidney but the precise location of its receptor subtypes along the nephron is unknown. Using a microassay we determined the specific binding of 125I-Sch 23982, a specific and selective dopamine-1 (DA1) receptor antagonist, to microdissected glomeruli and tubule segments. Binding of 125I-Sch 23982 in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) was time- and concentration dependent, saturable and reversible. The linear Scatchard plot of saturation experiments suggested binding to a single site with an apparent Kd of 16.7 nM and Bmax of 0.4 fmol.mm-1 in the PCT, and 6.2 nM and 0.1 fmol.mm-1 in the cortical collecting tubule (CCT). Mapping of DA1 binding sites along the nephron revealed their presence in each of the segments examined, albeit in markedly different concentrations: the highest specific binding was measured in PCT followed by the pars recta. Binding was less in the distal nephron, and least in the medullary and cortical thick ascending limb. Modest binding was also detected in glomeruli. In cortical collecting tubules competition studies with unlabeled dopamine and probes for DA1 (Sch 23390, fenoldopam), DA2 (domperidone, S-sulpiride), serotonergic (serotonin, ketanserin, mianserin), and alpha-(phentolamine) and beta-(propranolol) adrenergic receptors indicated a rank-order potency for displacement of 125I-Sch 23982 binding, consistent with labeling of DA1 receptors. Dopamine inhibited Na/K-ATPase both in PCT and CCT, an effect duplicated in the latter segment by the DA1 agonist fenoldopam, and blocked by the DA1 antagonist Sch23390.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. Abnormalities of the renal dopaminergic system have been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). 2. Both DA-1 and DA-2 receptors are present in renal tubules and blood vessels. DA-1 receptors mediate the renal vasodilatory and natriuretic effects of DA but the contribution of DA-2 receptors to these effects is not known. 3. We therefore studied the effect of a novel and selective DA-1 and DA-2 agonist, pramipexole, on MAP, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), urine flow (V), absolute (UNaV) and fractional sodium (FeNa) excretion in 9-18-week-old SHR. Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) served as control. 4. Pramipexole given intravenously (1, 10, 100 micrograms kg body wt-1 min-1) decreased MAP in a dose-related manner to a greater extent in SHR (n = 5) than WKY (n = 6) such that at the highest dose of pramipexole, MAP was similar in both groups. Pramipexole did not alter GFR in either WKY or SHR. Pramipexole increased V in a dose-related manner in both WKY and SHR. At 100 micrograms pramipexole kg body wt-1 min-1, V increased eightfold in both SHR and WKY. In contrast, pramipexole increased UNaV to a greater extent in WKY (5.1-fold) than SHR (3.7-fold). 5. These studies show a differential effect of pramipexole on renal function and MAP in SHR and WKY. Pramipexole has a more potent blood pressure lowering effect in SHR than in WKY. However, the natriuretic effect of pramipexole was greater in the WKY than in the SHR.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. The renal dopaminergic system is a potentially important regulator of sodium homeostasis and kidney function. 2. We have presented evidence that dopamine acts as a paracrine substance at DA-1 and DA-2 receptors in the physiological control of renal function. 3. Much more information is required regarding basic cellular mechanisms and the functional regulation of the system so that the role of renal dopamine can be placed clearly in context with other established hormonal regulatory systems.

Abstract
The (Na(+)+K+)ATPase, an integral membrane protein located in virtually all animal cells, couples the hydrolysis of ATP to the countertransport of Na+ and K+ ions across the plasma membrane. In neurons, a large portion of cellular energy is expended by this enzyme to maintain the ionic gradients that underlie resting and action potentials. Although neurotransmitter regulation of the enzyme in brain has been reported, such regulation has been characterized either as a nonspecific phenomenon or as an indirect effect of neurotransmitter-induced changes in ionic gradients. We report here that the neurotransmitter dopamine, through a synergistic effect on D1 and D2 receptors, inhibits the (Na(+)+K+)ATPase activity of isolated striatal neurons. Our data provide unequivocal evidence for regulation by a neurotransmitter of a neuronal ion pump. They also demonstrate that synergism between D1 and D2 receptors, which underlies many of the electrophysical and behavioural effects of dopamine in the mammalian brain, can occur on the same neuron. In addition, the results support the possibility that dopamine and other neurotransmitters can regulate neuronal excitability through the novel mechanism of pump inhibition.

Abstract
Activation of renal dopamine-1 receptors decreases sodium transport. However, the spontaneously hypertensive rat retains sodium despite increased renal dopamine concentration. We tested the hypothesis that the abnormal sodium handling in spontaneously hypertensive rats (Okamoto-Aoki strain) is related to a decreased dopaminergic response by studying the effects of the intrarenal infusion of the dopamine-1 agonist SKF-38393 and the dopamine-1 antagonist SCH-23390 in hypertensive and in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats. Rats (9-16 weeks old) were studied with renal nerves intact under pentobarbital anesthesia (n = 5-6 in each group). Specificity of dopamine-1 effects of SKF-38393 was verified because its natriuretic effect was blocked in a dose-related manner by the dopamine-1 antagonist SCH-23390 (n = 5). Intrarenal but resulted in a dose-related natriuresis and diuresis in normotensive but not in hypertensive rats. Intrarenal arterial infusion of the dopamine-1 antagonist SCH-23390 alone induced an antinatriuresis, without affecting glomerular filtration rate, in normotensive but not in hypertensive rats. Addition of the dopamine-2 antagonist YM-09151 to the dopamine-1 antagonist infusion did not enhance the effect of the dopamine-1 antagonist. The lack of response to the dopamine-1 agonist or antagonist in hypertensive rats was not due to differences in renal dopamine-1 receptor density (1.3 +/- 0.3 pmol/mg protein for spontaneously hypertensive rats, n = 4; 1 +/- 0.2 for Wistar-Kyoto rats, n = 4) or affinity; distribution determined by autoradiography was also similar. The abnormal renal sodium handling in 9-16-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats is in part due to decreased response distal to the dopamine-1 receptor.

Abstract
Research efforts in the area of peripheral dopamine have now established the presence of two distinct subtypes--DA1 and DA2--of DA receptors, and have identified a potential role for dopamine produced within the kidney in the control of renal sodium excretion. Selective DA1 and DA2 receptor agonists are being developed because they exhibit therapeutic potential for treatment of cardiovascular and renal disorders. Furthermore, basic research efforts are aimed towards identifying the stimulus and/or stimuli for the production of dopamine within the kidney and characterizing the cellular signalling processes involved in mediating the renal effects of dopamine and selective DA receptor agonists.

Abstract
The natriuretic effect of DA-1 agonists is less in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) than its normotensive control, the Wistar-Kyoto rat (WKY). To determine a mechanism of the decreased effect of DA-1 agonists on sodium transport, DA-1 receptors in renal proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) were studied by radioligand binding and by adenylate cyclase (AC) determinations. Specific binding of 125I-SCH 23982 (defined by 10 microM SCH 23390, a DA-1 antagonist) was concentration dependent, saturable, and stereoselective. The dissociation constant, maximum receptor density, and DA-1 antagonist inhibition constant were similar in SHR and WKY. The apparent molecular weight of the DA-1 receptor determined by the photoaffinity D1 probe 125I-MAB was also similar in WKY and SHR. However, DA-1 agonists competed more effectively for specific 125I-SCH 23982 binding sites in WKY than in SHR. Basal as well as forskolin, parathyroid hormone, GTP and Gpp(NH)p-stimulated-AC activities were similar. In contrast DA-1 agonists (fenoldopam, SKF 38393, SND 911C12) stimulated AC activity to a lesser extent in SHR. GTP and Gpp(NH)p enhanced the ability of DA-1 agonists to stimulate AC activity in WKY but not in SHR. These data suggest a defect in the DA-1 receptor-second messenger coupling mechanism in the PCT of the SHR.

Abstract
The cellular localization of DARPP-32, a dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of Mr 32,000 that appears to mediate certain actions of dopamine in the mammalian brain by acting as an inhibitor of protein phosphatase 1, was studied in the kidney of several species. DARPP-32 mRNA and DARPP-32-like immunoreactivity were found in the cytoplasm of cells in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. The specific dopamine DA1 agonist SKF 82526 caused a dose-dependent inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity, which could be blocked by SCH 23390, a specific DA1 antagonist, and by PKI-(5-24) amide, a specific inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The results indicate that DA1 dopamine receptors and DARPP-32, an intracellular third messenger for dopamine, are part of the signal-transduction process for dopamine acting on renal tubule cells.
