Abstract
Blood pressure (BP) is determined by several physiological factors that are regulated by a range of complex neural, endocrine, and paracrine mechanisms. This study examined a collection of 198 human genes related to BP regulation, in the biological processes and functional prisms, as well as gene expression in organs and tissues. This was made in conjunction with an orthology analysis performed in 19 target organisms along the phylogenetic tree. We have demonstrated that transport and signaling, as well as homeostasis in general, are the most prevalent biological processes associated with BP gene orthologs across the examined species. We showed that these genes and their orthologs are expressed primarily in the kidney and adrenals of complex organisms (e.g., high order vertebrates) and in the nervous system of low complexity organisms (e.g., flies, nematodes). Furthermore, we have determined that basic functions such as ion transport are ancient and appear in all organisms, while more complex regulatory functions, such as control of extracellular volume emerged in high order organisms. Thus, we conclude that the complex system of BP regulation evolved from simpler components that were utilized to maintain specific homeostatic functions that play key roles in existence and survival of organisms.

Abstract
Significance: The kidney plays an important role in the long-term control of blood pressure. Oxidative stress is one of the fundamental mechanisms responsible for the development of hypertension. Dopamine, via five subtypes of receptors, plays an important role in the control of blood pressure by various mechanisms, including the inhibition of oxidative stress. Recent Advances: Dopamine receptors exert their regulatory function to decrease the oxidative stress in the kidney and ultimately maintain normal sodium balance and blood pressure homeostasis. An aberration of this regulation may be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Critical Issues: Our present article reviews the important role of oxidative stress and intrarenal dopaminergic system in the regulation of blood pressure, summarizes the current knowledge on renal dopamine receptor-mediated antioxidation, including decreasing reactive oxygen species production, inhibiting pro-oxidant enzyme nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, and stimulating antioxidative enzymes, and also discusses its underlying mechanisms, including the increased activity of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 4 (GRK4) and abnormal trafficking of renal dopamine receptors in hypertensive status. Future Directions: Identifying the mechanisms of renal dopamine receptors in the regulation of oxidative stress and their contribution to the pathogenesis of hypertension remains an important research focus. Increased understanding of the role of reciprocal regulation between renal dopamine receptors and oxidative stress in the regulation of blood pressure may give us novel insights into the pathogenesis of hypertension and provide a new treatment strategy for hypertension.

Peripheral Dopamine 2-Receptor Antagonist Reverses Hypertension in a Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia Rat Model. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21144893. [PMID: 32664461 PMCID: PMC7402302 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21144893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2020] [Revised: 07/06/2020] [Accepted: 07/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) involves periods of intermittent hypoxia, experimentally reproduced by exposing animal models to oscillatory PO2 patterns. In both situations, chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) exposure produces carotid body (CB) hyperactivation generating an increased input to the brainstem which originates sympathetic hyperactivity, followed by hypertension that is abolished by CB denervation. CB has dopamine (DA) receptors in chemoreceptor cells acting as DA-2 autoreceptors. The aim was to check if blocking DA-2 receptors could decrease the CB hypersensitivity produced by CIH, minimizing CIH-related effects. Domperidone (DOM), a selective peripheral DA-2 receptor antagonist that does not cross the blood-brain barrier, was used to examine its effect on CIH (30 days) exposed rats. Arterial pressure, CB secretory activity and whole-body plethysmography were measured. DOM, acute or chronically administered during the last 15 days of CIH, reversed the hypertension produced by CIH, an analogous effect to that obtained with CB denervation. DOM marginally decreased blood pressure in control animals and did not affect hypoxic ventilatory response in control or CIH animals. No adverse effects were observed. DOM, used as gastrokinetic and antiemetic drug, could be a therapeutic opportunity for hypertension in SAHS patients’ resistant to standard treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The kidney, via its regulation of sodium excretion, which is modulated by humoral factors, including the dopamine and renin-angiotensin systems, keeps the blood pressure in the normal range. We have reported a negative interaction between dopamine D3 and AT1 receptors (D3R and AT1R) in renal proximal tubule (RPT) cells. Here, we studied the interaction between D3R and AT2R in vitro and in vivo. METHODS AND RESULTS Stimulation of either the D3R or AT2R, by the intrarenal arterial infusion of PD128907, a D3R agonist, or CGP42112A, an AT2R agonist, induced natriuresis and diuresis that were enhanced by the simultaneous infusion of PD128907 and CGP42112A in Wistar rats. The D3/AT2 receptor interaction was confirmed in in vitro, i.e., stimulation of either the D3R or AT2R inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity that was enhanced by the costimulation of these receptors. D3R and AT2R colocalized and coimmunoprecipitated in kidney and RPT cells (RPTCs). Stimulation of one receptor increased the localization of the other receptor at the plasma cell membrane. ERK1/2-MAPK is involved in the signaling pathway of D3R and AT2R interaction because costimulation of D3R and AT2R significantly increased ERK1/2-MAPK expression in RPTCs; inhibition of ERK1/2-MAPK abolished the inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity that was enhanced by D3R and AT2R costimulation. CONCLUSIONS Our current study indicates that D3R, in combination with AT2R, enhances natriuresis and diuresis, via ERK1/2-MAPK pathway, that may be involved in the regulation of blood pressure.

Abstract
Salt sensitivity of blood pressure, whether in hypertensive or normotensive subjects, is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and overall mortality. Salt sensitivity can be treated by reducing NaCl consumption. However, decreasing salt intake in some may actually increase cardiovascular risk, including an increase in blood pressure, that is, inverse salt sensitivity. Several genes have been associated with salt sensitivity and inverse salt sensitivity. Some of these genes encode proteins expressed in the kidney that are needed to excrete a sodium load, for example, dopamine receptors and their regulators, G protein-coupled receptor kinase 4 (GRK4). We review here research in this field that has provided several translational opportunities, ranging from diagnostic tests to gene therapy, such as (1) a test in renal proximal tubule cells isolated from the urine of humans that may determine the salt-sensitive phenotype by analyzing the recruitment of dopamine D1 receptors to the plasma membrane; (2) the presence of common GRK4 gene variants that are not only associated with hypertension but may also be predictive of the response to antihypertensive therapy; (3) genetic testing for polymorphisms of the dopamine D2 receptor that may be associated with hypertension and inverse salt sensitivity and may increase the susceptibility to chronic kidney disease because of loss of the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of the renal dopamine D2 receptor, and (4) in vivo renal selective amelioration of renal tubular genetic defects by a gene transfer approach, using adeno-associated viral vectors introduced to the kidney by retrograde ureteral infusion.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension, especially in obesity‐related hypertension. The natriuretic and antinatriuretic components of the renal renin angiotensin system (RAS) maintain sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Here, we test the hypothesis that increased oxidative stress leads to the imbalance of RAS components and hypertension in obese Zucker rats. Methods and Results Lean and obese rats received vehicle or tempol, a superoxide dismutase mimetic in the drinking water for 4 weeks. Compared with vehicle‐treated lean rats, vehicle‐treated obese rats exhibited higher blood pressure and increased renal oxidative stress, accompanied by increased diuretic and natriuretic responses to AT1R antagonist (Candesartan) and AT2R agonist (CGP‐42112A) and reduced diuretic and natriuretic response to MasR agonist (Ang‐[1 to 7]). Moreover, obese rats had higher ACE, AT1R and AT2R, lower ACE2 and MasR expressions in the kidney. All of the above‐mentioned abnormalities were reversed to some degree by tempol treatment. In primary cultures of renal proximal tubular (RPT) cells from lean and obese rats, tempol treatment also increased AT2R, ACE2, and MasR expressions but decreased AT1R and ACE expressions in obese rats. Conclusions Taken together, our study indicated that the imbalance of renal RAS components was associated with increased oxidative stress in obese rats. Furthermore, antioxidant treatment with tempol reversed the imbalance of renal RAS components and led to diuresis and natriuresis, which, at least in part, explains the blood pressure‐lowering effect of antioxidant supplementation in obesity‐related hypertension.

Abstract
The homeostatic control of blood pressure hinges upon the delicate balance between prohypertensinogenic and antihypertensinogenic systems. D₁-like dopamine receptors [dopamine D₁ and D₅ receptors (D₁Rs and D₅Rs, respectively)] and the α₁A-adrenergic receptor (α₁A-AR) are expressed in the renal proximal tubule and engender opposing effects on Na(+) transport, i.e., natriuresis (via D₁Rs and D5Rs) or antinatriuresis (via α₁A-ARs). We tested the hypothesis that the D₁R/D₅R regulates the α₁A-AR. D₁-like dopamine receptors coimmunoprecipitated, colocalized, and cofractionated with α₁A-ARs in lipid rafts in immortalized human renal proximal tubule cells. Long-term treatment with the D₁R/D₅R agonist fenoldopam resulted in decreased D₁R and D₅R expression but increased α₁A-AR abundance in the plasma membrane. Short-term fenoldopam treatment stimulated the translocation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase from the plasma membrane to the cytosol that was partially reversed by an α₁A-AR agonist, which by itself induced Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase translocation from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. The α₁A-AR-specific agonist A610603 also minimized the ability of fenoldopam to inhibit Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. To determine the interaction among D₁Rs, D₅Rs, and α₁A-ARs in vivo, we used phenylephrine and A610603 to decrease Na(+) excretion in several D1-like dopamine receptor knockout mouse strains. Phenylephrine and A61603 treatment resulted in a partial reduction of urinary Na(+) excretion in wild-type mice and its abolition in D1R knockout, D₅R knockout, and D₁R-D₅R double-knockout mice. Our results demonstrate the ability of the D₁-like dopamine receptors to regulate the expression and activity of α₁A-AR. Elucidating the intricacies of the interaction among these receptors is crucial for a better understanding of the crosstalk between anti- and pro-hypertensive systems.

Abstract
Dopamine-mediated regulation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in the posterior gills of some crustaceans has been reported to be involved in osmoregulation. The dopamine receptors of invertebrates are classified into three groups based on their structure and pharmacology: D1- and D2-like receptors and a distinct invertebrate receptor subtype (INDR). We tested the hypothesis that a D1-like receptor is expressed in the blue crab Callinectes sapidus and regulates Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. RT-PCR, using degenerate primers, showed the presence of D1βR mRNA in the posterior gill. The blue crab posterior gills showed positive immunostaining for a dopamine D5 receptor (D5R or D1βR) antibody in the basolateral membrane and cytoplasm. Confocal microscopy showed colocalization of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and D1βR in the basolateral membrane. To determine the effect of D1-like receptor stimulation on Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, intact crabs acclimated to low salinity for 6 days were given an intracardiac infusion of the D1-like receptor agonist fenoldopam, with or without the D1-like receptor antagonist SCH23390. Fenoldopam increased cAMP production twofold and decreased Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by 50% in the posterior gills. This effect was blocked by coinfusion with SCH23390, which had no effect on Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by itself. Fenoldopam minimally decreased D1βR protein expression (10%) but did not affect Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase α-subunit protein expression. This study shows the presence of functional D1βR in the posterior gills of euryhaline crabs chronically exposed to low salinity and highlights the evolutionarily conserved function of the dopamine receptors on sodium homeostasis.

Abstract
It is recognized that dopamine promotes natriuresis by inhibiting multiple transporting systems in the proximal tubule. In contrast, less is known about the molecular targets of dopamine actions on water-electrolyte transport in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). Epithelial cells in the CCD are exposed to dopamine, which is synthesized locally or secreted from sympathetic nerve endings. Basolateral K(+) channels in the distal renal tubule are critical for K(+) recycling and controlling basolateral membrane potential to establish the driving force for Na(+) reabsorption. Here, we demonstrate that Kir4.1 and Kir5.1 are highly expressed in the mouse kidney cortex and are localized to the basolateral membrane of the CCD. Using patch-clamp electrophysiology in freshly isolated CCDs, we detected highly abundant 40-pS and scarce 20-pS single channel conductances, most likely representing Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 channels, respectively. Dopamine reversibly decreased the open probability of both channels, with a relatively greater action on the Kir4.1/5.1 heterodimer. This effect was mediated by D2-like but not D1-like dopamine receptors. PKC blockade abolished the inhibition of basolateral K(+) channels by dopamine. Importantly, dopamine significantly decreased the amplitude of Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 unitary currents. Consistently, dopamine induced an acute depolarization of basolateral membrane potential, as directly monitored using current-clamp mode in isolated CCDs. Therefore, we demonstrate that dopamine inhibits basolateral Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 channels in CCD cells via stimulation of D2-like receptors and subsequently PKC. This leads to depolarization of the basolateral membrane and a decreased driving force for Na(+) reabsorption in the distal renal tubule.

Abstract
Oral NaCl produces a greater natriuresis and diuresis than the intravenous infusion of the same amount of NaCl. Gastrin is the major gastrointestinal hormone taken up by renal proximal tubule (RPT) cells. We hypothesized that renal gastrin and dopamine receptors interact to synergistically increase sodium excretion, an impaired interaction of which may be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension. In Wistar-Kyoto rats, infusion of gastrin induced natriuresis and diuresis, which was abrogated in the presence of a gastrin (cholecystokinin B receptor [CCKBR]; CI-988) or a D1-like receptor antagonist (SCH23390). Similarly, the natriuretic and diuretic effects of fenoldopam, a D1-like receptor agonist, were blocked by SCH23390, as well as by CI-988. However, the natriuretic effects of gastrin and fenoldopam were not observed in spontaneously hypertensive rats. The gastrin/D1-like receptor interaction was also confirmed in RPT cells. In RPT cells from Wistar-Kyoto but not spontaneously hypertensive rats, stimulation of either D1-like receptor or gastrin receptor inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, an effect that was blocked in the presence of SCH23390 or CI-988. In RPT cells from Wistar-Kyoto and spontaneously hypertensive rats, CCKBR and D1 receptor coimmunoprecipitated, which was increased after stimulation of either D1 receptor or CCKBR in RPT cells from Wistar-Kyoto rats; stimulation of one receptor increased the RPT cell membrane expression of the other receptor, effects that were not observed in spontaneously hypertensive rats. These data suggest that there is a synergism between CCKBR and D1-like receptors to increase sodium excretion. An aberrant interaction between the renal CCK BR and D1-like receptors (eg, D1 receptor) may play a role in the pathogenesis of hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fava beans (Vicia faba) contain dihydroxyphenylalanine (dopa), and their ingestion may increase dopamine stores. Renal dopamine regulates blood pressure and blood volume via a natriuretic effect. OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the relation between dietary fava beans, plasma and urinary catechols, and urinary sodium excretion in 13 healthy volunteers. DESIGN Catechol and sodium data were compared by using a longitudinal design in which all participants consumed a fixed-sodium study diet on day 1 and the fixed-sodium diet plus fava beans on day 2. Blood was sampled at 1, 2, 4, and 6 h after a meal, and 3 consecutive 4-h urine samples were collected. RESULTS Mean (±SD) plasma dopa was significantly greater 1 h after fava bean consumption (11,670 ± 5440 compared with 1705 ± 530 pg/mL; P = 0.001) and remained elevated at 6 h. Plasma dopamine increased nearly 15-fold during this period. Fava bean consumption also increased urinary dopamine excretion to 306 ± 116, 360 ± 235, and 159 ± 111 μg/4-h urine sample compared with 45 ± 21, 54 ± 29, and 44 ± 17 μg in the 3 consecutive 4-h samples after the control diet (P ≤ 0.005). These substantial increases in plasma and urinary dopa and dopamine were unexpectedly associated with decreased urinary sodium. CONCLUSION The failure of fava bean consumption to provoke natriuresis may indicate that dopa concentrations in commercially available beans do not raise renal dopamine sufficiently to stimulate sodium excretion, at least when beans are added to a moderate-sodium diet in healthy volunteers. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01064739.

Abstract
The role of dopamine receptors in blood pressure regulation is well established. Genetic ablation of both dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes (D1, D5) and D2-like receptor subtypes (D2, D3, D4) results in a hypertensive phenotype in mice. This review focuses on the dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes D1 and D5 (especially D1 receptors), as they play a major role in regulating sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Studies mostly describing the role of renal dopamine D1-like receptors are included, as the kidneys play a pivotal role in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and the long-term regulation of blood pressure. We also attempt to describe the interaction between D1-like receptors and other proteins, especially angiotensin II type 1 and type 2 receptors, which are involved in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Finally, we discuss a new concept of renal D1 receptor regulation in hypertension that involves oxidative stress mechanisms.

Abstract
Human essential hypertension and rodent genetic hypertension are associated with increased sodium transport in the renal proximal tubule and medullary thick ascending limb of Henle. The proximal tubule, which secretes endothelin (ET), expresses the ET(B) receptor. Low (nM) concentrations of ET, via the ET(B) receptor, inhibit sodium and water transport and ATP-driven drug secretion in the proximal tubule. In contrast, very low (pM) and high nM concentrations of ET increase renal proximal sodium transport, but the receptor involved remains to be determined. The natriuretic effect of ET(B) receptor stimulation is impaired in spontaneously hypertensive rats, due in part to a defective interaction with D(3) dopamine and angiotensin II type 1 receptors. Impaired ET(B) receptor function in the renal proximal tubule may be important in the pathogenesis of genetic hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of renal D₃ receptor induces natriuresis and diuresis in Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats; in the presence of ETB receptor antagonist, the natriuretic effect of D₃ receptor in WKY rats is reduced. We hypothesize that ETB receptor activation may regulate D₃ receptor expression in renal proximal tubule (RPT) cells from WKY rats, which is impaired in RPT cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). METHODS D₃ receptor expression was determined by immunoblotting; the D₃/ETB receptor linkage was checked by coimmunoprecipitation; Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was determined as the rate of inorganic phosphate released in the presence or absence of ouabain. RESULTS In RPT cells from WKY rats, the ETB receptor agonist BQ3020 increased D₃ receptor protein. In contrast, in RPT cells from SHRs, BQ3020 did not increase D₃ receptor. There was coimmunoprecipitation between D₃ and ETB receptors in RPT cells from WKY and SHRs. Activation of ETB receptor increased D₃/ETB coimmunoprecipitation in RPT cells from WKY rats, but not from SHRs. The basal levels of D₃/ETB receptor coimmunoprecipitation were greater in RPT cells from WKY rats than in those from SHRs. Stimulation of D₃ receptor inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, which was augmented by the pretreatment with the ETB receptor agonist BQ3020 in WKY RPT cells, but not in SHR RPT cells. CONCLUSION ETB receptors regulate and physically interact with D₃ receptors differently in WKY rats and SHRs. The impaired natriuretic effect in SHRs may be, in part, related to impaired ETB and D₃ receptor interactions.

Abstract
Dopamine produced by renal proximal tubules increases sodium excretion via a decrease in renal sodium reabsorption. Dopamine natriuresis is impaired in obese Zucker rats; however, the mechanism is not fully understood. To test the hypothesis that renal expression of one or more of the subtypes are altered in these rats, we measured whole kidney protein levels by immunoblotting of D1-like (D1R and D5R) and D2-like (D2R, D3R, and D4R) dopamine receptors in both male and female obese and lean Zucker rats. In obese males on 1% NaCl diet, D1R, D2R, D4R, and D5R were decreased, while D3R was increased, relative to lean rats. Under a 4% NaCl diet, D2R and D3R levels in obese rats were restored to lean levels. 4% NaCl diet reduced D5R in both body types, relative to 1% NaCl diet. Female rats had higher expression of D1R and D3R than did male; however, the sex difference for D1R was markedly blunted in obese rats. In obese rats, dietary candesartan (angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker) normalized downregulated D1R and D2R, but either decreased (D3R), did not affect (D4R), or further downregulated (D5R) the other subtypes. Candesartan also decreased D4R in lean rats. In summary, reduced renal protein levels of D1R, D2R, D4R, and D5R in obese Zucker rats could induce salt sensitivity and elevate blood pressure. Increased angiotensin II type 1 receptor activity may be mechanistically involved in the decreased expression of D1R and D2R in obese rats. Finally, reduced D1R and D3R in male rats may contribute to sex differences in blood pressure.

Abstract
In moderate sodium-replete states, dopamine 1-like receptors (D1R/D5R) are responsible for regulating >50% of renal sodium excretion. This is partly mediated by internalization and inactivation of NaKATPase, when associated with adapter protein 2. We used dopaminergic stimulation via fenoldopam (D1-like receptor agonist) to study the interaction among D1-like receptors, caveolin-1 (CAV1), and the G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 in cultured human renal proximal tubule cells (RPTCs). We compared 2 groups of RPTCs, 1 of cell lines that were isolated from normal subjects (nRPTCs) and a second group of cell lines that have D1-like receptors that are uncoupled (uncoupled RPTCs) from adenylyl cyclase second messengers. In nRPTCs, fenoldopam increased the plasma membrane expression of D1R (10.0-fold) and CAV1 (1.3-fold) and markedly decreased G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 by 94+/-8%; no effects were seen in uncoupled RPTCs. Fenoldopam also increased the association of adapter protein 2 and NaKATPase by 53+/-9% in nRPTCs but not in uncoupled RPTCs. When CAV1 expression was reduced by 86.0+/-8.5% using small interfering RNA, restimulation of the D1-like receptors with fenoldopam in nRPTCs resulted in only a 7+/-9% increase in association between adapter protein 2 and NaKATPase. Basal CAV1 expression and association with G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 was decreased in uncoupled RPTCs (58+/-5% decrease in association) relative to nRPTCs. We conclude that the scaffolding protein CAV1 is necessary for the association of D1-like receptors with G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 and the adapter protein 2-associated reduction in plasma membrane NaKATPase.

Abstract
Essential hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart and kidney failure. Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport and by interacting with vasoactive hormones and humoral factors. However, the mechanisms leading to impaired dopamine receptor function in hypertension states are not clear. Compelling experimental evidence indicates a role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hypertension, and there are increasing pieces of evidence showing that in conditions associated with oxidative stress, which is present in hypertensive states, dopamine receptor effects, such as natriuresis, diuresis, and vasodilation, are impaired. The goal of this review is to present experimental evidence that has led to the conclusion that decreased dopamine receptor function increases ROS activity and vice versa. Decreased dopamine receptor function and increased ROS production, working in concert or independent of each other, contribute to the pathogenesis of essential hypertension.

Abstract
Dopamine is important in the pathogenesis of hypertension because of abnormalities in receptor-mediated regulation of renal sodium transport. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1), D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), D(4)) subtypes, all of which are expressed in the kidney. Mice deficient in specific dopamine receptors have been generated to provide holistic assessment on the varying physiological roles of each receptor subtype. This review examines recent studies on these mutant mouse models and evaluates the impact of individual dopamine receptor subtypes on blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport and by interacting with vasoactive hormones/humoral factors, such as aldosterone, angiotensin, catecholamines, endothelin, oxytocin, prolactin pro-opiomelancortin, reactive oxygen species, renin, and vasopressin. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1) and D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), and D(4)) subtypes based on their structure and pharmacology. In recent years, mice deficient in one or more of the five dopamine receptor subtypes have been generated, leading to a better understanding of the physiological role of each of the dopamine receptor subtypes. This review summarizes the results from studies of various dopamine receptor mutant mice on the role of individual dopamine receptor subtypes and their interactions with other G protein-coupled receptors in the regulation of blood pressure.

Abstract
Alterations in the dopaminergic system may contribute to the development of hypertension. Recently, it has been reported that pentobarbital-anesthetized mice with deficient dopamine D(3) receptors showed renin-dependent elevation in blood pressure. In a series of experiments, we evaluated the contribution of the dopamine D(3) receptor to the renal sodium excretion and arterial blood pressure behavior in conscious as well as anesthetized dopamine D(3) receptor knockout (-/-) mice. The blood pressure measuring study was designed as a cross-over trial to investigate the influence of different sodium loads. The animals were fed a normal salt diet (0.6% NaCl, NS) for 1 week and afterwards a low (0.2% NaCl, LS) or a high salt diet (4.6% NaCl, HS) for 2 weeks. After the third week, the animals were switched to the corresponding protocol. Systolic blood pressure in conscious (-/-) mice measured by tail-cuff plethysmography was not different from that of wild-type (+/+) animals, irrespective of the time course or the salt diet. In another experiment, challenge of an acute sodium loading per gavage in conscious D(3) receptor (-/-) and (+/+) animals on HS or NS diet did not show significant differences in renal sodium excretion between the two genotypes. Additionally, animals were fed an NS diet for 1 week and an HS diet for another week. As expected, sodium excretion significantly increased after the change from the NS to the HS diet. A slightly lower urinary sodium excretion was observed when comparing D(3) receptor (-/-) mice to their corresponding (+/+) mice, both on an HS diet. Clearance experiments with anesthetized D(3) receptor (-/-) and (+/+) mice were performed to investigate the renal sodium excretion capacity, when exposed to a moderate volume expansion (VE). Urinary sodium excretion increased in response to the VE; however, no difference were observed between the two genotypes. Taking these results together, we conclude that in the present animal model renal dopamine D(3) receptors are not significantly involved in the regulation of blood pressure associated with a deficiency in renal sodium elimination.

Abstract
Abnormalities in dopamine production and receptor function have been described in human essential hypertension and rodent models of genetic hypertension. Under normal conditions, D(1)-like receptors (D(1) and D(5)) inhibit sodium transport in the kidney and intestine. However, in the Dahl salt-sensitive and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and in humans with essential hypertension, the D(1)-like receptor-mediated inhibition of epithelial sodium transport is impaired because of an uncoupling of the D(1)-like receptor from its G protein/effector complex. The uncoupling is receptor specific, organ selective, nephron-segment specific, precedes the onset of hypertension, and cosegregates with the hypertensive phenotype. The defective transduction of the renal dopaminergic signal is caused by activating variants of G protein-coupled receptor kinase type 4 (GRK4: R65L, A142V, A486V). The GRK4 locus is linked to and GRK4 gene variants are associated with human essential hypertension, especially in salt-sensitive hypertensive subjects. Indeed, the presence of three or more GRK4 variants impairs the natriuretic response to dopaminergic stimulation in humans. In genetically hypertensive rats, renal inhibition of GRK4 expression ameliorates the hypertension. In mice, overexpression of GRK4 variants causes hypertension either with or without salt sensitivity according to the variant. GRK4 gene variants, by preventing the natriuretic function of the dopaminergic system and by allowing the antinatriuretic factors (e.g., angiotensin II type 1 receptor) to predominate, may be responsible for salt sensitivity. Subclasses of hypertension may occur because of additional perturbations caused by variants of other genes, the quantitative interaction of which may vary depending upon the genetic background.

Abstract
We have recently demonstrated that a deletion of the dopamine D2 receptor gene caused suppression of urinary sodium excretion and salt-sensitive elevation of blood pressure in mice. In order to understand the mechanisms underlying this impaired sodium excretion, we studied renal dopamine production and dopamine-induced sodium excretion in 20- to 30-week-old male D2-receptor knockout (D2KO) mice and age- and sex-matched wildtype (WT) mice. Renal local dopamine synthesis, examined by 24-h urine free dopamine excretion (UDAV), was significantly (p < 0.05) reduced in D2KO mice compared to that in WT mice (D2KO versus WT: 1.06 +/- 0.2 versus 1.5 +/- 0.3 ng/mg creatinine). Such a difference between D2KO and WT mice was also observed after oral administration of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), a precursor of dopamine, at 5 mg/kg per day for 24 h. Furthermore, activity of aromatic 1-amino acid decarboxylase, a dopamine synthetase, was significantly suppressed in D2KO mice. Next, we examined changes in 24-h urine flow (UV) and 24-h sodium excretion (UNaV) during chronic infusion of dopamine at sub-pressor doses (3-4 microg/kg per min, sq.) or a vehicle via an osmotic pump. Urine flow in 24 h and UNaV were significantly (p < 0.05) smaller in D2KO mice infused with vehicle than in WT mice infused with vehicle (UV: 210 +/- 43 versus 650 +/- 163 microl/day; UNaV: 20.6 +/- 13.2 versus 44.4 +/- 21.6 microEq/day). After administration of dopamine, UV and UNaV in D2KO mice were restored to a level similar to that in WT mice. These results indicate that D2-dopamine receptors play a significant role in renal local dopamine synthesis and that a shortage of dopamine was, at least in part, responsible for the suppression of UV and UNaV in D2KO mice. However, we could not conclude from the present study whether renal tubular sodium reabsorption is intact in D2KO mice because the baseline dopamine contents in kidneys of D2KO mice and WT mice may be different.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sympathetic vascular insult and hemodynamic changes represent the most reliable explanation of renal impairment resulting from acute intraabdominal pressure. We evaluated the effects of low-dose dopamine administration during a long-lasting surgical laparoscopic procedure. METHODS For this study 40, patients submitted to a colorectal laparoscopic procedure with 15 mmHg of intraabdominal pressure were randomly allocated to two groups: 20 receiving 2 mg/kg/min of dopamine and 20 receiving the same perfusion of saline. Hemodynamic parameters, renal function, urinary output, and creatinine clearance, were studied. RESULTS The hemodynamic parameters were similar in both groups. The urinary output decreased during the intraoperative period only the saline group (p = 0.4). Then 2 h postoperatively, it increased in both groups, and no statistically significant differences were found between the groups. The creatinine clearance decreased in both groups during the intraoperative time, but it was worse in the saline group (-28 +/- 120 vs -194 +/- 106; p = 0.022). During the postoperative period, both groups showed improvement, but in control group the values remained lower than at baseline (p = 0.04), and significantly lower than in the dopamine group (230 +/- 337 vs 100 +/- 192; p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS An intrabdominal pressure of 15 mmHg induces a time-limited renal dysfunction, and low doses of dopamine could prevent this undesirable effect.

Abstract
Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, precursor of noradrenaline, is responsible for cardiovascular and renal actions, such as increase in myocardial contractility and cardiac output, without changes in heart rate, producing passive and active vasodilatation, diuresis and natriuresis. These cardiovascular and renal actions take place through the interaction with dopamine receptors, D(1), D(2), D(3), D(4), and D(5). Recent findings point to the possibility of D(6) and D(7)receptors. Dopamine is known to influence the control of arterial pressure by influencing the central and peripheral nervous system and target organs such as kidneys and adrenal glands, in some types of hypertension. Although dopamine and its derivatives have been shown to have antihypertensive effects, these are still being studied; therefore it is important to explain some physiological and pharmacological aspects of dopamine, its receptors, and the clinical uses it could have in the treatment of arterial hypertension and more recently in obesity, based on evidence proving a clear association between obesity and the decrease in the expression of D(2) receptors in the brain of obese persons.

Abstract
D(1)-like (D(1), D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), D(4)) dopamine receptors interact in the kidney to produce a natriuresis and a diuresis. Disruption of D(1) or D(3) receptors in mice results in hypertension that is caused, in part, by a decreased ability to excrete an acute saline load. We studied D(1)-like and D(2)-like receptor interaction in anesthetized spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) by the intrarenal infusion of Z-1046 (a novel dopamine receptor agonist with rank order potency of D(3)> or =D(4)>D(2)>D(5)>D(1)). Z-1046 increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), urine flow, and sodium excretion in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats but not in SHRs. The lack of responsiveness to Z-1046 in SHRs was not an epiphenomenon, because intrarenal cholecystokinin infusion increased GFR, urine flow, and sodium excretion to a similar extent in the two rat strains. We conclude that renal D(1)-like and D(2)-like receptor interaction is impaired in SHRs. The impaired D(1)-like and D(2)-like receptor interaction in SHRs is not caused by alterations in the coding sequence of the D(3) receptor, the D(2)-like receptor expressed in rat renal tubules that has been shown to be involved in sodium transport. Because the diuretic and natriuretic effects of D(1)-like receptors are, in part, caused by an interaction with D(2)-like receptors, it is possible that the decreased Z-1046 action in SHRs is secondary to the renal D(1)-like receptor dysfunction in this rat strain.

Abstract
Previous studies reported the existence of both D1- and D2-like receptors in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). However, especially with regard to natriuresis, it remains controversial. In the present study, rabbit CCD was perfused to characterize the receptor subtypes responsible for the tubular actions. Basolateral dopamine (DA) induced a dose-dependent depolarization of transepithelial voltage. Basolateral domperidone, a D2-like receptor antagonist, abolished depolarization, whereas SKF-81297, a D1-like receptor agonist, showed no significant change. In addition, bromocriptine, a D2-like receptor agonist, also caused depolarization, whereas SKF-81297, a D1-like receptor agonist, did not depolarize significantly. Moreover, RBI-257, a D4-specific antagonist, reversed the basolateral DA-induced depolarization. In contrast to the basolateral side, luminal DA caused depolarization via a D1-like receptor; however the change was less than that for basolateral DA. For further evaluation, 22Na+ flux (J(Na)) was measured to confirm the effect of DA on Na+ transport. Basolateral DA also caused a suppression of J(Na), and this reaction was abolished by domperidone. These results suggested that the basolateral D2-like receptor is mainly responsible for the natriuretic action of DA in rabbit CCD.

Abstract
To determine if the defective interactions among D1-like receptors, G proteins, and Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3) are consequences of hypertension, we studied these interactions in rats, before (2–3 wk) and after (12 wk) the establishment of hypertension. To eliminate the confounding influence of second messenger action on D1 receptor-NHE3 interaction, studies were performed in renal brush-border membranes (BBM) devoid of cytoplasmic second messengers. NHE3 activity increased with age in Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats (3 wk = 1.48 ± 0.39, n = 13; 12 wk = 2.83 ± 0.15, n = 16, P < 0.05) but not in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs; 3 wk = 2.52 ± 0.37, n = 11; 12 wk = 2.81 ± 0.20, n = 16). D1 receptor protein tended to decrease, whereas NHE3 protein tended to increase with age in both WKY and SHRs. However, the inhibitory effect of a D1-like agonist, SKF-81297, on NHE3 activity increased with age in WKY rats (3 wk = −40.7 ± 5.3%, n = 10, 12 wk = −58.7 ± 4.6%, n = 12, P < 0.05) but not in SHRs (3 wk = −27.6 ± 5.9%, n = 11, 12 wk = −25.1 ± 3.2%, n = 11). The decreased inhibitory effect of another D1-like agonist, fenoldopam, on NHE3 activity in SHRs was not caused by increased activity and binding of Gβγ to NHE3 as has been reported in young WKY rats. Gsα mediates, in part, the inhibitory effect of D1-like agonists on NHE3 activity. In WKY rats, fenoldopam increased Gsα/NHE3 binding to the same extent in 2-wk-old (1.5-fold, n = 4) and adult (1.5-fold, n = 4) rats. In contrast, in SHRs, fenoldopam decreased the amount of Gsα bound to NHE3 in 2-wk-old SHRs and had no effect in 4-wk-old and adult SHRs. These studies indicate that the decreased inhibitory effect of D1-like agonists on NHE3 activity in SHRs (compared with WKY rats) precedes the development of hypertension. This may be caused, in part, by a decreased interaction between Gsα and NHE3 in BBM secondary to impaired D1-like receptor function.

Abstract
The kidney regulates sodium metabolism with extraordinary precision and sensitivity. This is accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between anti-natriuretic and natriuretic factors. Dopamine, produced in renal proximal tubule cells, plays a central role in this interactive network. Natriuretic hormones that are released from extrarenal sources, such as atrial natriuretic peptide, mediate some of their effects via renal dopamine receptors. On the level of the tubules, dopamine acts by opposing the effects of anti-natriuretic factors, such as angiotensin II and alpha-adrenergic receptors. Sodium retention leads to an increase in renal dopamine tonus, and the natriuretic effects of dopamine are more prominent under this condition. Inhibition or down-regulation of dopamine receptors significantly attenuates the natriuretic response to salt loading. Renal dopamine is modulated by the supply of filtered L-DOPA and the metabolism of dopamine via catechol-O-methyldopamine. The importance of dopamine as a natriuretic hormone is reflected by its capacity to inhibit the majority of renal tubule sodium transporters. Notably, the activity of Na+, K+ ATPase is inhibited in most tubule segments by dopamine. Recent studies have elucidated many of the signaling pathways for renal dopamine receptors. Novel principles for homologous and heterologous sensitization of dopamine receptors have been detected that may explain some of the interaction between dopamine and other first messengers that modulate renal tubule sodium transport. A broad understanding of the renal dopamine system has become increasingly important, since there is now strong evidence from both clinical and experimental studies that dysregulation of the renal dopamine system plays a role in many forms of multigenetic hypertension.

Abstract
During the past decade, it has become evident that dopamine plays an important role in the regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance and blood pressure. Dopamine exerts its actions through two families of dopamine receptors, designated D1-like and D2-like, which are identical in the brain and in peripheral tissues. The two D1-like receptors--D1 and D5 receptors--expressed in mammals are linked to stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. The three D2-like receptors--D2, D3, and D4,--are linked to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. Dopamine affects fluid and electrolyte balance by regulation of renal excretion of electrolytes and water through actions on renal hemodynamics and tubular epithelial transport and by modulation of the secretion and/or action of vasopressin, renin, aldosterone, catecholamines, and endothelin B receptors (ETB) receptors. It also affects fluid and sodium intake by way of "appetite" centers in the brain and alterations of gastrointestinal tract transport. The production of dopamine in neural and non-neural tissues and the presence of receptors in these tissues suggest that dopamine can act in an autocrine or paracrine fashion. This renal autocrine-paracrine function, which becomes most evident during extracellular fluid volume expansion, is lost in essential hypertension and in some animal models of genetic hypertension. This deficit may be caused by abnormalities in renal dopamine production and polymorphisms or abnormal post-translational modification and regulation of dopamine receptor subtypes.
