Abstract
Behavior and function of living systems are synchronized by the 24-h rotation of the Earth that guides physiology according to time of day. However, when behavior becomes misaligned from the light-dark cycle, such as in rotating shift work, jet lag, and even unusual eating patterns, adverse health consequences such as cardiovascular or cardiometabolic disease can arise. The discovery of cell-autonomous molecular clocks expanded interest in regulatory systems that control circadian physiology including within the kidney, where function varies along a 24-h cycle. Our understanding of the mechanisms for circadian control of physiology is in the early stages, and so the present review provides an overview of what is known and the many gaps in our current understanding. We include a particular focus on the impact of eating behaviors, especially meal timing. A better understanding of the mechanisms guiding circadian function of the kidney is expected to reveal new insights into causes and consequences of a wide range of disorders involving the kidney, including hypertension, obesity, and chronic kidney disease.

Hinrichs GR, Nielsen JR, Birn H, Bistrup C, Jensen BL. Amiloride evokes significant natriuresis and weight loss in kidney transplant recipients with and without albuminuria. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2023; 325:F426-F435. [PMID: 37560772 DOI: 10.1152/ajprenal.00108.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Albuminuria in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) is associated with hypertension and aberrant glomerular filtration of serine proteases that may proteolytically activate the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC). The present nonrandomized, pharmacodynamic intervention study aimed to investigate if inhibition of ENaC increases Na+ excretion and reduces extracellular volume in KTRs dependent on the presence of albuminuria. KTRs with and without albuminuria (albumin-to-creatinine ratio > 300 mg/g, n = 7, and <30 mg/g, n = 7, respectively) were included and ingested a diet with fixed Na+ content (150 mmol/day) for 5 days. On the last day, amiloride at 10 mg was administered twice. Body weight, 24-h urine electrolyte excretion, body water content, and ambulatory blood pressure as well as plasma renin, angiotensin II, and aldosterone concentrations were determined before and after amiloride. Amiloride led to a significant decrease in body weight, increase in 24-h urinary Na+ excretion, and decrease in 24-h urinary K+ excretion in both groups. Urine output increased in the nonalbuminuric group only. There was no change in plasma renin, aldosterone, and angiotensin II concentrations after amiloride, whereas a significant decrease in nocturnal systolic blood pressure and increase in 24-h urine aldosterone excretion was observed in albuminuric KTRs only. There was a significant correlation between 24-h urinary albumin excretion and amiloride-induced 24-h urinary Na+ excretion. In conclusion, ENaC activity contributes to Na+ and water retention in KTRs with and without albuminuria. ENaC is a relevant pharmacological target in KTRs; however, larger and long-term studies are needed to evaluate whether the magnitude of this effect depends on the presence of albuminuria.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Amiloride has a significant natriuretic effect in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) that relates to urinary albumin excretion. The epithelial Na+ channel may be a relevant direct pharmacological target to counter Na+ retention and hypertension in KTRs. Epithelial Na+ channel blockers should be further investigated as a mean to mitigate Na+ and water retention and to potentially obtain optimal blood pressure control in KTRs.

[PMID: 37338051 DOI: 10.1080/07420528.2023.2224904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023]
Abstract
The circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP) is believed to be regulated by the clock system, which is closely linked to levels of angiotensin II (Ang II). This study aimed to investigate whether Ang II mediates the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through the interaction between the clock system and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Primary rat aortic VSMCs were treated with Ang II, with or without MAPK inhibitors. VSMC proliferation, expression of clock genes, CYCLIN E, and MAPK pathways were assessed. Ang II treatment resulted in increased VSMC proliferation and rapid upregulation of clock gene Periods (Pers) expression. Compared to the non-diseased control (NC) group, VSMCs incubated with Ang II displayed a noticeable delay in the G1/S phase transition and downregulation of CYCLIN E upon silencing of Per1 and Per2 genes. Importantly, silencing Per1 or Per2 in VSMCs led to decreased expression of key MAPK pathway proteins, including RAS, phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase (P-MEK), and phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (P-ERK). Moreover, the MEK and ERK inhibitors, U0126 and SCH772986, significantly attenuated the Ang II-induced proliferation of VSMCs, as evidenced by an increased G1/S phase transition and decreased CYCLIN E expression. The MAPK pathway plays a critical role in regulating VSMC proliferation in response to Ang II stimulation. This regulation is controlled by the expression of circadian clock genes involved in the cell cycle. These findings provide novel insights for further research on diseases associated with abnormal VSMC proliferation.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, sex differences can impact differently the etiology and outcome of cardiovascular disease when comparing men and women. Women have unique genetic and hormonal risk factors that can be associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, certain phenotypes of cardiovascular diseases are more prevalent to women. Molecular clocks control circadian rhythms of different physiological systems in our body, including the cardiovascular system. Increased evidence in recent years points to a link between cardiovascular disease and regulation by circadian rhythms. However, the difference between circadian regulation of cardiovascular disease in women and men is poorly understood. In this review, we highlight the recent advances in circadian-regulated cardiovascular diseases with a specific focus on the pathogenesis of heart disease in women. Understanding circadian-regulated pathways and sex-specific differences between men and women may contribute to better diagnosis and development of sex-targeted interventions to better treat cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Hypertension remains a major problem, especially in the elderly, as it increases the risk for cardiovascular, coronary artery, cerebrovascular, and kidney diseases. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a role in the aging process and contribute to pathophysiology. Our goal was to examine differences in lipid profiles of urinary EVs (uEVs) collected during the inactive and active phases of aged mice and investigate whether these EVs regulate the density of lipid rafts in mouse cortical collecting duct (mpkCCD) principal cells. Here, we demonstrate the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) inhibitor benzyl amiloride reduced systolic blood pressure in aged male mice during the inactive and active phases. Lipidomics data demonstrate differential enrichment of lipids between the two groups. For example, there are more phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogens, particularly in the form of alkyl phosphatidylethanolamines, that are enriched in active phase uEVs compared to inactive phase uEVs from the same mice. Amiloride-sensitive transepithelial current increased more in mpkCCD cells challenged with uEVs from the active phase group. Moreover, more ENaC alpha protein was distributed to lipid raft fractions of mpkCCD cells challenged with active phase uEVs. Taken together, the identification of bioactive lipids associated with lipid rafts that are enriched in EVs released during the active phase of aged mice may offer clues to help understand lipid raft organization in recipient principal cells after EV uptake and increased renal ENaC activity, leading to a time-of-day dependent regulation of blood pressure in an aging model.

Abstract
The circadian clock network in mammals is responsible for the temporal coordination of numerous physiological processes that are necessary for homeostasis. Peripheral tissues demonstrate circadian rhythmicity and dysfunction of core clock components has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases that are characterized by abnormal extracellular matrix, such as fibrosis (too much disorganized matrix) and tissue breakdown (too little matrix). Kidney disease is characterized by proteinuria, which along with the rate of filtration, displays robust circadian oscillation. Clinical observation and mouse studies suggest the presence of 24 h kidney clocks responsible for circadian oscillation in kidney function. Recent experimental evidence has also revealed that cell-matrix interactions and the biomechanical properties of extracellular matrix have key roles in regulating peripheral circadian clocks and this mechanism appears to be cell- and tissue-type specific. Thus, establishing a temporally resolved kidney matrisome may provide a useful tool for studying the two-way interactions between the extracellular matrix and the intracellular time-keeping mechanisms in this critical niche tissue. This review summarizes the latest genetic and biochemical evidence linking kidney physiology and disease to the circadian system with a particular focus on the extracellular matrix. We also review the experimental approaches and methodologies required to dissect the roles of circadian pathways in specific tissues and outline the translational aspects of circadian biology, including how circadian medicine could be used for the treatment of kidney disease.

Abstract
This study examined the influence of PPARG activation by pioglitazone (PG) on the mRNA of core clock, inflammation- and metabolism-related genes in the mouse kidney medulla as well as urinary sodium/potassium excretion rhythms disrupted by reverse feeding. Mice were assigned to daytime feeding and nighttime feeding groups. PG 20 mg/kg was administered at 7 am or 7 pm. On day 8 of the feeding intervention, mice were killed at noon and midnight. Kidney medulla expression of Arntl, Clock, Nr1d1, Cry1, Cry2, Per1, Per2, Nfe2l2, Pparg, and Scnn1g was determined by qRT PCR. We measured urinary K+ , Na+ , urine volume, food, and H2 O intake. The reverse feeding uncoupled the peripheral clock gene rhythm in mouse kidney tissues. It was accompanied by a decreased expression of Nfe2l2 and Pparg as well as an increased expression of Rela and Scnn1g. These changes in gene expressions concurred with an increase in urinary Na+ , K+ , water excretion, microcirculation disorders, and cell loss, especially in distal tubules. PG induced the restoration of diurnal core clock gene expression as well as Nfe2l2, Pparg, Scnn1g mRNA, and decreased Rela expressions, stimulating Na+ reabsorption and inhibiting K+ excretion. PG intake at 7 pm was more effective than at 7 am.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circadian rhythms play an essential role in physiological function. The molecular clock that underlies circadian physiological function consists of a core group of transcription factors, including the protein PER1 (Period1). Studies in mice show that PER1 plays a role in the regulation of blood pressure and renal sodium handling; however, the results are dependent on the strain being studied. Using male Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) rats with global knockout of PER1 (SSPer1-/-), we aim to test the hypothesis that PER1 plays a key role in the regulation of salt-sensitive blood pressure. METHODS The model was generated using CRISPR/Cas9 and was characterized using radiotelemetry and measures of renal function and circadian rhythm. RESULTS SSPer1-/- rats had similar mean arterial pressure when fed a normal 0.4% NaCl diet but developed augmented hypertension after three weeks on a high-salt (4% NaCl) diet. Despite being maintained on a normal 12:12 light:dark cycle, SSPer1-/- rats exhibited desynchrony mean arterial pressure rhythms on a high-salt diet, as evidenced by increased variability in the time of peak mean arterial pressure. SSPer1-/- rats excrete less sodium after three weeks on the high-salt diet. Furthermore, SSPer1-/- rats exhibited decreased creatinine clearance, a measurement of renal function, as well as increased signs of kidney tissue damage. SSPer1-/- rats also exhibited higher plasma aldosterone levels. CONCLUSIONS Altogether, our findings demonstrate that loss of PER1 in Dahl SS rats causes an array of deleterious effects, including exacerbation of the development of salt-sensitive hypertension and renal damage.

Abstract
An intrinsic cellular circadian clock is located in nearly every cell of the body. The peripheral circadian clocks within the cells of the kidney contribute to the regulation of a variety of renal processes. In this review, we summarize what is currently known regarding the function, mechanism, and regulation of kidney clocks. Additionally, the effect of extrarenal physiological processes, such as endocrine and neuronal signals, on kidney function is also reviewed. Circadian rhythms in renal function are an integral part of kidney physiology, underscoring the importance of considering time of day as a key biological variable. The field of circadian renal physiology is of tremendous relevance, but with limited physiological and mechanistic information on the kidney clocks this is an area in need of extensive investigation.

Abstract
Probiotic fermented milk can lower the incidence rate of hypertension and is beneficial to the regulation of the intestinal microecology. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we evaluated the role of the gut microbiota and its metabolites in the antihypertensive effect of milk fermented by the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains SR37-3 (PFM-SR37-3) and SR61-2 (PFM-SR61-2) in Ng-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester induced hypertensive rats. The results showed that PFM-SR37-3 and PFM-SR61-2 intervention significantly lowered the blood pressure (BP) of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester induced hypertensive rats and attenuated renal injury. In particular, long-term administration of PFM inhibited a progressive elevation in SBP (170.22 ± 8.40 and 133.28 ± 6.09 by model group and PFM-SR37-3 treated model group, respectively, at the end of the 4 weeks; p < 0.01 PFM-SR37-3 treated model group versus model group) and DBP (133.83 ± 5.91 and 103.00 ± 6.41 by model group and PFM-SR37-3 treated model group, respectively, at the end of the 4 weeks; p < 0.01 PFM-SR37-3 treated model group versus model group). PFM-SR37-3 and PFM-SR61-2 reshaped the gut microbiome and metabolome, and especially regulated the metabolic levels of L-phenylalanine, L-methionine and L-valine in the intestine and blood circulation. The analysis of the target organ’s aortic transcriptome indicated that the protective effects of PFM-SR37-3 and PFM-SR61-2 were accompanied by the modulation of the BP circadian rhythm pathway, which was conducive to cardiovascular function. Vascular transcriptomic analysis showed that circadian rhythm and AMPK might be potential targets of hypertension. In addition, the ACE inhibition rates of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum SR37-3 and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum SR61-2 in vitro were 70.5% and 68.9%, respectively. Our research provides new insights into novel and safe options for hypertension treatment.

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2022; 322:F692-F707. [PMID: 35466690 PMCID: PMC9142161 DOI: 10.1152/ajprenal.00053.2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Revised: 04/08/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Na+-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are the new mainstay of treatment for diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. Despite the remarkable benefits, the molecular mechanisms mediating the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on water and electrolyte balance are incompletely understood. The goal of this study was to determine whether SGLT2 inhibition alters blood pressure and kidney function via affecting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and Na+ channels/transporters along the nephron in Dahl salt-sensitive rats, a model of salt-induced hypertension. Administration of dapagliflozin (Dapa) at 2 mg/kg/day via drinking water for 3 wk blunted the development of salt-induced hypertension as evidenced by lower blood pressure and a left shift of the pressure natriuresis curve. Urinary flow rate, glucose excretion, and Na+- and Cl--to-creatinine ratios increased in Dapa-treated compared with vehicle-treated rats. To define the contribution of the RAAS, we measured various hormones. Despite apparent effects on Na+- and Cl--to-creatinine ratios, Dapa treatment did not affect RAAS metabolites. Subsequently, we assessed the effects of Dapa on renal Na+ channels and transporters using RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, and patch clamp. Neither mRNA nor protein expression levels of renal transporters (SGLT2, Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3, Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter 2, Na+-Cl- cotransporter, and α-, β-, and γ-epithelial Na+ channel subunits) changed significantly between groups. Furthermore, electrophysiological experiments did not reveal any difference in Dapa treatment on the conductance and activity of epithelial Na+ channels. Our data suggest that SGLT2 inhibition in a nondiabetic model of salt-sensitive hypertension blunts the development of salt-induced hypertension by causing glucosuria and natriuresis without changes in the RAAS or the expression or activity of the main Na+ channels and transporters.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The present study indicates that Na+-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibition in a nondiabetic model of salt-sensitive hypertension blunts the development and magnitude of salt-induced hypertension. Chronic inhibition of SGLT2 increases glucose and Na+ excretion without secondary effects on the expression and function of other Na+ transporters and channels along the nephron and hormone levels in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. These data provide novel insights into the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and their potential use in hypertension.

Kidney-specific KO of the circadian clock protein PER1 alters renal Na + handling, aldosterone levels, and kidney/adrenal gene expression. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2022; 322:F449-F459. [PMID: 35129370 PMCID: PMC9169971 DOI: 10.1152/ajprenal.00385.2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Revised: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
PERIOD 1 (PER1) is a circadian clock transcription factor that is regulated by aldosterone, a hormone that increases blood volume and Na+ retention to increase blood pressure. Male global Per1 knockout (KO) mice develop reduced night/day differences in Na+ excretion in response to a high-salt diet plus desoxycorticosterone pivalate treatment (HS + DOCP), a model of salt-sensitive hypertension. In addition, global Per1 KO mice exhibit higher aldosterone levels on a normal-salt diet. To determine the role of Per1 in the kidney, male kidney-specific Per1 KO (KS-Per1 KO) mice were generated using Ksp-cadherin Cre recombinase to remove exons 2-8 of Per1 in the distal nephron and collecting duct. Male KS-Per1 KO mice have increased Na+ retention but have normal diurnal differences in Na+ excretion in response to HS + DOCP. The increased Na+ retention is associated with altered expression of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors, increased serum aldosterone, and increased medullary endothelin-1 compared with control mice. Adrenal gland gene expression analysis revealed that circadian clock and aldosterone synthesis genes have altered expression in KS-Per1 KO mice compared with control mice. These results emphasize the importance of the circadian clock not only in maintaining rhythms of physiological functions but also for adaptability in response to environmental cues, such as HS + DOCP, to maintain overall homeostasis. Given the prevalence of salt-sensitive hypertension in the general population, these findings have important implications for our understanding of how circadian clock proteins regulate homeostasis.NEW & NOTEWORTHY For the first time, we show that knockout of the circadian clock transcription factor PERIOD 1 using kidney-specific cadherin Cre results in increased renal Na+ reabsorption, increased aldosterone levels, and changes in gene expression in both the kidney and adrenal gland. Diurnal changes in renal Na+ excretion were not observed, demonstrating that the clock protein PER1 in the kidney is important for maintaining homeostasis and that this effect may be independent of time of day.

Abstract
The reality of life in modern times is that our internal circadian rhythms are often out of alignment with the light/dark cycle of the external environment. This is known as circadian disruption, and a wealth of epidemiological evidence shows that it is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease remains the top cause of death in the United States, and kidney disease in particular is a tremendous public health burden that contributes to cardiovascular deaths. There is an urgent need for new treatments for kidney disease; circadian rhythm-based therapies may be of potential benefit. The goal of this Review is to summarize the existing data that demonstrate a connection between circadian rhythm disruption and renal impairment in humans. Specifically, we will focus on chronic kidney disease, lupus nephritis, hypertension, and aging. Importantly, the relationship between circadian dysfunction and pathophysiology is thought to be bidirectional. Here we discuss the gaps in our knowledge of the mechanisms underlying circadian dysfunction in diseases of the kidney. Finally, we provide a brief overview of potential circadian rhythm-based interventions that could provide benefit in renal disease.

Abstract
The attention for the control of dietary risk factors involved in the development of hypertension, includes a large effort on dietary salt restrictions. Ample studies show the beneficial role of limiting dietary sodium as a lifestyle modification in the prevention and management of essential hypertension. Not until the past decade or so have studies more specifically investigated diurnal variations in renal electrolyte excretion, which led us to the hypothesis that timing of salt intake may impact cardiovascular health and blood pressure regulation. Cell autonomous molecular clocks as the name implies, function independently to maintain optimum functional rhythmicity in the face of environmental stressors such that cellular homeostasis is maintained at all times. Our understanding of mechanisms influencing diurnal patterns of sodium excretion and blood pressure has expanded with the discovery of the circadian clock genes. In this review, we discuss what is known about circadian regulation of renal sodium handling machinery and its influence on blood pressure regulation, with timing of sodium intake as a potential modulator of the kidney clock.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported that disturbance of endogenous circadian rhythms enhances the chance of hypertension and suggested that circadian clock genes could have a crucial function in the onset of the disease. This case-control study was aimed to investigate the association of the mRNA expression of aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator like (Arntl), clock circadian regulator (Clock), and period circadian regulators 1 and 2 (Per1 and Per2) with hypertension and blood pressure levels. METHODS A total of 172 subjects were recruited in this study, including 86 hypertension and 86 nonhypertension controls. The mRNA expression levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The differences in Arntl, Clock, Per1, and Per2 mRNA expression were compared between the 2 groups, and the relationship between mRNA expression and cardiometabolic risk profiles was also assessed. RESULTS We found that the mRNA expression of Arntl was downregulated in the hypertension cases compared with controls in women (1.10 [0.66, 1.71] vs. 1.30 [0.99, 2.06], p = 0.031). There was a significant negative correlation between the Arntl mRNA expression and SBP (r = -0.301, p = 0.004) and DBP (r = -0.222, p = 0.034) in women. In men, a negative correlation between the Per1 mRNA expression and SBP (r = -0.247, p = 0.026) was found. CONCLUSIONS The Arntl mRNA expression may play an important role in progression of hypertension in women.

Abstract
The Epithelial Na+ Channel, ENaC, comprised of 3 subunits (αβγ, or sometimes δβγENaC), plays a critical role in regulating salt and fluid homeostasis in the body. It regulates fluid reabsorption into the blood stream from the kidney to control blood volume and pressure, fluid absorption in the lung to control alveolar fluid clearance at birth and maintenance of normal airway surface liquid throughout life, and fluid absorption in the distal colon and other epithelial tissues. Moreover, recent studies have also revealed a role for sodium movement via ENaC in nonepithelial cells/tissues, such as endothelial cells in blood vessels and neurons. Over the past 25 years, major advances have been made in our understanding of ENaC structure, function, regulation, and role in human disease. These include the recently solved three-dimensional structure of ENaC, ENaC function in various tissues, and mutations in ENaC that cause a hereditary form of hypertension (Liddle syndrome), salt-wasting hypotension (PHA1), or polymorphism in ENaC that contributes to other diseases (such as cystic fibrosis). Moreover, great strides have been made in deciphering the regulation of ENaC by hormones (e.g., the mineralocorticoid aldosterone, glucocorticoids, vasopressin), ions (e.g., Na+ ), proteins (e.g., the ubiquitin-protein ligase NEDD4-2, the kinases SGK1, AKT, AMPK, WNKs & mTORC2, and proteases), and posttranslational modifications [e.g., (de)ubiquitylation, glycosylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, palmitoylation]. Characterization of ENaC structure, function, regulation, and role in human disease, including using animal models, are described in this article, with a special emphasis on recent advances in the field. © 2021 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
The peptide hormone endothelin-1 and its receptors are linked to several disease states. Pharmacological inhibition of this pathway has proven beneficial in pulmonary hypertension, yet its potential in other disease states remains to be realized. This review considers an often understudied aspect of endothelin biology, circadian rhythm regulation and how understanding the intersection between endothelin signaling and the circadian clock may be leveraged to realize the potential of endothelin-based therapeutics.

Abstract
Blood pressure follows a daily rhythm, dipping during nocturnal sleep in humans. Attenuation of this dip (nondipping) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Renal control of sodium homeostasis is essential for long-term blood pressure control. Sodium reabsorption and excretion have rhythms that rely on predictive/circadian as well as reactive adaptations. We explore how these rhythms might contribute to blood pressure rhythm in health and disease.

Abstract
The use of 24-h ABPM has become commonplace when diagnosing and managing hypertension in the pediatric population. Multiple clinical guidelines recommend ABPM as the preferred method for identifying white-coat hypertension, masked hypertension, and determining degree of blood pressure (BP) control. Accurate, timely diagnosis and optimal management are particularly important in certain populations, such as children with chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes, and other conditions with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Understanding how best to utilize ABPM to achieve these goals is important for pediatric nephrologists and other hypertension specialists. This review will provide practical information on the equipment, application, interpretation, and documentation of ABPM in the specialty clinic.

Abstract
The cardiovascular and renal systems share an intimate physiological relationship, wherein a perturbance in one system may have an adverse effect on the other. Since the burden of renal disease increases with age, there is a considerable interest in the pathophysiology of kidney disease in the geriatric patient population. This review will explore the physiological dynamics behind the increased susceptibility to kidney disease in this population. A better understanding of these pathophysiological changes may lead to improved prevention and management strategies.

Abstract
Previously, we showed that global knockout (KO) of the circadian clock transcription factor PER1 in male, but not female, mice fed a high-salt diet plus mineralocorticoid treatment (HS/DOCP) resulted in nondipping hypertension and decreased night/day ratio of sodium (Na) excretion. Additionally, we have shown that the endothelin-1 (ET-1) gene is targeted by both PER1 and aldosterone. We hypothesized that ET-1 would exhibit a sex-specific response to HS/DOCP treatment in PER1 KO. Here we show that male, but not female, global PER1 KO mice exhibit a decreased night/day ratio of urinary ET-1. Gene expression analysis revealed significant genotype differences in ET-1 and endothelin A receptor (ETA) expression in male, but not female, mice in response to HS/DOCP. Additionally, both wild-type and global PER1 KO male mice significantly increase endothelin B receptor (ETB) expression in response to HS/DOCP, but female mice do not. Finally, siRNA-mediated knockdown of PER1 in mouse cortical collecting duct cells (mpkCCDc14) resulted in increased ET-1 mRNA expression and peptide secretion in response to aldosterone treatment. These data suggest that PER1 is a negative regulator of ET-1 expression in response to HS/DOCP, revealing a novel mechanism for the regulation of renal Na handling in response to HS/DOCP treatment.

Abstract
The diurnal rhythms of sodium handling and blood pressure are thought to be regulated by clock genes, such as Bmal1. However, little is known about the regulation of these factors by Bmal1, especially in rats. Using a novel whole-body Bmal1 knockout rat model (Bmal1-/-), we hypothesized that time of day regulation of sodium excretion is dependent on Bmal1. Using telemetry to continuously record mean arterial pressure, we observed that male and female Bmal1-/- rats had significantly reduced mean arterial pressure over the course of 24 hours compared with littermate controls. The circadian mean arterial pressure pattern remained intact in both sexes of Bmal1-/- rats, which is in contrast to the Bmal1-/- mouse model. Male Bmal1-/- rats had no significant difference in baseline sodium excretion between 12-hour active and inactive periods, indicating a lack of diurnal control independent of maintained mean arterial pressure rhythms. Female Bmal1-/- rats, however, had significantly greater sodium excretion during the active versus inactive period similar to controls. Thus, we observed a clear dissociation between circadian blood pressure and control of sodium excretion that is sex dependent. These findings are consistent with a more robust ability of females to maintain control of sodium excretion, and furthermore, demonstrate a novel role for Bmal1 in control of diurnal blood pressure independent of sodium excretion.

Abstract
The renal circadian clock has a major influence on the function of the kidney. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like protein 1 [ARNTL; also known as brain and muscle ARNT-like 1 (BMAL1)] is a core clock protein and transcription factor that regulates the expression of nearly half of all genes. Using male and female kidney-specific cadherin BMAL1 knockout (KS-BMAL1 KO) mice, we examined the role of renal distal segment BMAL1 in blood pressure control and solute handling. We confirmed that this mouse model does not express BMAL1 in thick ascending limb, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct cells, which are the final locations for solute and fluid regulation. Male KS-BMAL1 KO mice displayed a substantially lower basal systolic blood pressure compared with littermate control mice, yet their circadian rhythm in pressure remained unchanged [male control mice: 127 ± 0.7 mmHg (n = 4) vs. male KS-BMAL KO mice: 119 ± 2.3 mmHg (n = 5), P < 0.05]. Female mice, however, did not display a genotype difference in basal systolic blood pressure [female control mice: 120 ± 1.6 mmHg (n = 5) vs. female KS-BMAL1 KO mice: 119 ± 1.5 mmHg (n = 7), P = 0.4]. In addition, male KS-BMAL1 KO mice had less Na+ retention compared with control mice in response to a K+-restricted diet (15% less following 5 days of treatment). However, there was no genotype difference in Na+ handling after a K+-restricted diet in female mice. Furthermore, there was evidence indicating a sex-specific response to K+ restriction where female mice reabsorbed less Na+ in response to this dietary challenge compared with male mice. We propose that BMAL1 in the distal nephron and collecting duct contributes to blood pressure regulation and Na+ handling in a sex-specific manner.

Abstract
Alterations of diurnal rhythms of blood pressure (BP) and reshaping of gut microbiota are both independently associated with hypertension. However, the relationships between biorhythms of BP and gut microbial composition are unknown. We hypothesized that diurnal timing-associated alterations of microbial compositions are synchronous with diurnal rhythmicity, dip in BP, and renal function. To test this hypothesis, Dahl salt-sensitive (S) rats on low- and high-salt diets were examined for time of day effects on gut microbiota, BP, and indicators of renal damage. Major shifts in night and day patterns of specific groups of microbiota were observed between the dark (active) and light (rest) phases, which correlated with diurnal rhythmicity of BP. The diurnal abundance of Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria were independently associated with BP. Discrete bacterial taxa were observed to correlate independently or interactively with one or more of the following 3 factors: (1) BP rhythm, (2) dietary salt, and (3) dip in BP. Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities revealed diurnal timing effects on microbial pathways, characterized by upregulated biosynthetic processes during the active phase of host, and upregulated degradation pathways of metabolites in the resting phase. Additional metagenomics functional pathways with rhythm variations were noted for aromatic amino acid metabolism and taurine metabolism. These diurnal timing dependent changes in microbiota, their functional pathways, and BP dip were associated with concerted effects of the levels of renal lipocalin 2 and kidney injury molecule-1 expression. These data provide evidence for a firm and concerted diurnal timing effects of BP, renal damage, and select microbial communities.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Blood pressure (BP) exhibits strong diurnal variations that have been shown to be important for normal physiology and health. In this review, we highlight recent advances in both basic and clinic research on how the circadian clock affects these BP rhythms. RECENT FINDINGS Tissue-specific and inducible knockout rodent models have provided novel ways to dissect how circadian clocks regulate BP rhythms and demonstrated that loss of these rhythms is associated with the development of disease. The use of circadian-specific research protocols has translated findings from rodent models to humans, providing insight into circadian control of BP, as well as how sleep, activity, and other factors influence diurnal BP rhythms. Circadian mechanisms play an important role in the regulation of diurnal BP rhythms. Future research needs to extend these findings to clinical populations and determine the extent to which circadian factors may play a role in the development of novel treatment approaches to the management of hypertension.

Abstract
Kidney function follows a 24-h rhythm subject to regulation by circadian genes including the transcription factor Bmal1. A high-salt diet induces a phase shift in Bmal1 expression in the renal inner medulla that is dependent on endothelin type B (ETB) receptors. Furthermore, ETB receptor-mediated natriuresis is sex dependent. Therefore, experiments tested the hypothesis that collecting duct Bmal1 regulates blood pressure in a sex-dependent manner. We generated a mouse model that lacks Bmal1 expression in the collecting duct, where ETB receptor abundance is highest. Male, but not female, collecting duct Bmal1 knockout (CDBmal1KO) mice had significantly lower 24-h mean arterial pressure (MAP) than flox controls (105 ± 2 vs. 112 ± 3 mmHg for male mice and 106 ± 1 vs. 108 ± 1 mmHg for female mice, by telemetry). After 6 days on a high-salt (4% NaCl) diet, MAP remained significantly lower in male CDBmal1KO mice than in male flox control mice (107 ± 2 vs. 113 ± 1 mmHg), with no significant differences between genotypes in female mice (108 ± 2 vs. 109 ± 1 mmHg). ETB receptor blockade for another 6 days increased MAP similarly in both male and female CDBmal1KO and flox control mice. However, MAP remained lower in male CDBmal1KO mice than in male flox control mice (124 ± 2 vs. 130 ± 2 mmHg). No significant differences were observed between female CDBmal1KO and flox mice during ETB blockade (130 ± 2 vs. 127 ± 2 mmHg). There were no significant genotype differences in amplitude or phase of MAP in either sex. These data suggest that collecting duct Bmal1 has no role in circadian MAP but plays an important role in overall blood pressure in male, but not female, mice.

Abstract
The sodium-chloride cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule contributes importantly to sodium balance and blood pressure (BP) regulation. NCC phosphorylation determines transport activity and has a diurnal rhythm influenced by glucocorticoids. Disturbing this rhythm induces “nondipping” BP, an abnormality that increases cardiovascular risk. The receptor through which glucocorticoids regulate NCC is not known. In this study, we found that acute administration of corticosterone to male C57BL6 mice doubled NCC phosphorylation without affecting total NCC abundance in both adrenalectomized and adrenal-intact mice. Corticosterone also increased the whole kidney expression of canonical clock genes: period circadian protein homolog 1 (Per1), Per2, cryptochrome 1, and aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like protein 1. In adrenal-intact mice, chronic blockade of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) with RU486 did not change total NCC but prevented corticosterone-induced NCC phosphorylation and activation of clock genes. Blockade of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) with spironolactone reduced the total pool of NCC but did not affect stimulation by corticosterone. The diurnal rhythm of NCC phosphorylation, measured at 6-h intervals, was blunted by chronic GR blockade, and a similar dampening of diurnal variation was seen in GR heterozygous null mice. These effects on NCC phosphorylation did not reflect altered rhythmicity of plasma corticosterone or serum and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 1 activity. Both mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids emerge as regulators of NCC, acting via distinct receptor pathways. MR activation provides maintenance of the NCC protein pool; GR activation dynamically regulates NCC phosphorylation and establishes the diurnal rhythm of NCC activity. This study has implications for circadian BP homeostasis, particularly in individuals with abnormal glucocorticoid signaling as is found in chronic stress and corticosteroid therapy.

Abstract
Numerous physiological functions exhibit substantial circadian oscillations. In the kidneys, renal plasma flow, the glomerular filtration rate and tubular reabsorption and/or secretion processes have been shown to peak during the active phase and decline during the inactive phase. These functional rhythms are driven, at least in part, by a self-sustaining cellular mechanism termed the circadian clock. The circadian clock controls different cellular functions, including transcription, translation and protein post-translational modifications (such as phosphorylation, acetylation and ubiquitylation) and degradation. Disruption of the circadian clock in animal models results in the loss of blood pressure control and substantial changes in the circadian pattern of water and electrolyte excretion in the urine. Kidney-specific suppression of the circadian clock in animals implicates both the intrinsic renal and the extrarenal circadian clocks in these pathologies. Alterations in the circadian rhythm of renal functions are associated with the development of hypertension, chronic kidney disease, renal fibrosis and kidney stones. Furthermore, renal circadian clocks might interfere with the pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics of various drugs and are therefore an important consideration in the treatment of some renal diseases or disorders.

Abstract
The mammalian circadian clock governs physiological, endocrine, and metabolic responses coordinated in a 24-h rhythmic pattern by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the anterior hypothalamus. The SCN also dictates circadian rhythms in peripheral tissues like the kidney. The kidney has several important physiological functions, including removing waste and filtering the blood and regulating fluid volume, blood osmolarity, blood pressure, and Ca2+ metabolism, all of which are under tight control of the molecular/circadian clock. Normal aging has a profound influence on renal function, central and peripheral circadian rhythms, and the sleep-wake cycle. Disrupted circadian rhythms in the kidney as a result of increased age likely contribute to adverse health outcomes such as nocturia, hypertension, and increased risk for stroke, cardiovascular disease, and end organ failure. Regular physical activity improves circadian misalignment in both young and old mammals, although the precise mechanisms for this protection remain poorly described. Recent advances in the heart and skeletal muscle literature suggest that regular endurance exercise entrains peripheral clocks, and we propose that similar beneficial adaptations occur in the kidney through regulation of renal blood flow and fluid balance.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to provide a brief summary about the current state of knowledge regarding the circadian rhythm in the regulation of normal renal function. RECENT FINDINGS There is a lack of information regarding how the circadian clock mechanisms may contribute to the development of diabetic kidney disease. We discuss recent findings regarding mechanisms that are established in diabetic kidney disease and are known to be linked to the circadian clock as possible connections between these two areas. Here, we hypothesize various mechanisms that may provide a link between the clock mechanism and kidney disease in diabetes based on available data from humans and rodent models.

Abstract
The circadian clock is integral to the maintenance of daily rhythms of many physiological outputs, including blood pressure. Our laboratory has previously demonstrated the importance of the clock protein period 1 (PER1) in blood pressure regulation in male mice. Briefly, a high-salt diet (HS; 4% NaCl) plus injection with the long-acting mineralocorticoid deoxycorticosterone pivalate (DOCP) resulted in nondipping hypertension [<10% difference between night and day blood pressure (BP) in Per1-knockout (KO) mice but not in wild-type (WT) mice]. To date, there have been no studies that have examined the effect of a core circadian gene KO on BP rhythms in female mice. The goal of the present study was to determine whether female Per1-KO mice develop nondipping hypertension in response to HS/DOCP treatment. For the first time, we demonstrate that loss of the circadian clock protein PER1 in female mice does not significantly change mean arterial pressure (MAP) or the BP rhythm relative to female C57BL/6 WT control mice. Both WT and Per1-KO female mice experienced a significant increase in MAP in response to HS/DOCP. Importantly, however, both genotypes maintained a >10% dip in BP on HS/DOCP. This effect is distinct from the nondipping hypertension seen in male Per1-KO mice, demonstrating that the female sex appears to be protective against PER1-mediated nondipping hypertension in response to HS/DOCP. Together, these data suggest that PER1 acts in a sex-dependent manner in the regulation of cardiovascular rhythms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronobiology studies the phenomenon of rhythmicity in living organisms. The circadian rhythms are genetically determined and regulated by external synchronizers (the daylight cycle). Several biological processes involved in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs are subjected to circadian variations. Chronopharmacology studies how biological rhythms influence pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and toxicity, and determines whether time-of-day administration modifies the pharmacological characteristics of the drug. Chronotherapy applies chronopharmacological studies to clinical treatments, determining the best biological time for dosing: when the beneficial effects are maximal and the incidence and/or intensity of related side effects and toxicity are minimal. Most water-soluble drugs or drug metabolites are eliminated by urine through the kidney. The rate of drug clearance in the urine depends on several intrinsic variables related to renal function including renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, the ability of the kidney to reabsorb or to secrete drugs, urine flow, and urine pH, which influences the degree of urine acidification. Curiously, all these variables present a circadian behavior in different mammalian models. CONCLUSION The circadian rhythms have influence in the renal physiology, pathophysiology, and pharmacology, and these data should be taken into account in clinical nephrology practice.
