Nepal N, Arthur S, Haynes J, Palaniappan B, Sundaram U. Mechanism of Na-K-ATPase Inhibition by PGE2 in Intestinal Epithelial Cells. Cells 2021; 10:cells10040752. [PMID: 33805551 PMCID: PMC8066871 DOI: 10.3390/cells10040752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2021] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
The primary means of intestinal absorption of nutrients by villus cells is via Na-dependent nutrient co-transporters located in the brush border membrane (BBM). These secondary active co-transport processes require a favorable transcellular Na gradient that is provided by Na-K-ATPase. In chronic enteritis, malabsorption of essential nutrients is partially due to inhibition of villus Na-K-ATPase activity mediated by specific immune inflammatory mediators that are known to be elevated in the inflamed mucosa. However, how Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a specific mediator of nutrient malabsorption in the villus BBM, may mediate the inhibition of Na-K-ATPase is not known. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of PGE2 on Na-K-ATPase in villus cells and define its mechanism of action. In vitro, in IEC-18 cells, PGE2 treatment significantly reduced Na-K-ATPase activity, accompanied by a significant increase in the intracellular levels of cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP). The treatment with cAMP analog 8-Bromo-cAMP mimicked the PGE2-mediated effect on Na-K-ATPase activity, while Rp-cAMP (PKA inhibitor) pretreatment reversed the same. The mechanism of inhibition of PGE2 was secondary to a transcriptional reduction in the Na-K-ATPase α1 and β1 subunit genes, which was reversed by the Rp-cAMP pretreatment. Thus, the PGE2-mediated activation of the PKA pathway mediates the transcriptional inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity in vitro.

Abstract
Glaucoma is a disease that causes irreversible blindness. Reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) is the main treatment at present. Nitric oxide (NO), an endogenous gas signaling molecule, can increase aqueous humor outflow facility, inhibit aqueous humor production thereby reducing IOP, as well as regulate eye blood flow and protect the optic nerve. Therefore, NO donating anti-glaucoma drugs have broad research prospects. In this review, we summarize NO-mediated therapy for glaucoma, and the state of the art of some NO donating molecules, including latanoprostene bunod in market and some other candidate compounds, for the intervention of glaucoma, as well as prospects and challenges ahead in this field.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of SeY (selenium-rich yeast) against Al (aluminum)-induced inflammation and ionic imbalances. Male Kunming mice were treated with Al (10 mg/kg) and/or SeY (0.1 mg/kg) by oral gavage for 28 days. The degree of inflammation was assessed by mRNA expression of inflammatory biomarkers. Ionic disorders were assessed by determining the Na+, K+, and Ca2+ content, as well as the alteration in ATP-modifying enzymes (ATPases), including Na+K+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase, and the mRNA levels of ATPase's subunits in kidney. It was observed here that SeY exhibited a significant protective effect on the kidney against the Al-induced upregulation of pro-inflammatory and downregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, a significant effect of Al on the Na+, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ levels in kidney was observed, and Al was observed to decrease the activities of Na+K+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, and Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase. The mRNA expression of the Na+K+-ATPase subunits and Ca2+-ATPase subunits was regulated significantly by Al. Notably, SeY modulated the Al-induced alterations of ion concentrations, ATPase activity, and mRNA expression of their subunits. These results suggest that SeY prevents renal toxicity caused by Al via regulation of inflammatory responses, ATPase activities, and transcription of their subunits.

Abstract
Epinephrine, a key stress hormone, is known to affect ion transport in the colon. Stress has been associated with alterations in colonic functions leading to changes in water movements manifested as diarrhea or constipation. Colonic water movement is driven by the Na+-gradient created by the Na+/K+-ATPase. Whether epinephrine acts via an effect on the Na+/K+-ATPase hasn’t been studied before. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of epinephrine on the Na+/K+-ATPase and to elucidate the signaling pathway involved using CaCo-2 cells as a model. The activity of the Na+/K+-ATPase was assayed by measuring the amount of inorganic phosphate released in presence and absence of ouabain, a specific inhibitor of the enzyme. Epinephrine, added for 20 minutes, decreased the activity of the Na+/K+-ATPase by around 50%. This effect was found to be mediated by α2 adrenergic receptors as it was fully abolished in the presence of yohimbine an α2-blocker, but persisted in presence of other adrenergic antagonists. Furthermore, treatment with Rp-cAMP, a PKA inhibitor, mimicked epinephrine’s negative effect and didn’t result in any additional inhibition when both were added simultaneously. Treatment with indomethacin, PP2, SB202190, and PD98059, respective inhibitors of COX enzymes, Src, p38MAPK, and ERK completely abrogated the effect of epinephrine. The effect of epinephrine did not appear also in presence of inhibitors of all four different types of PGE2 receptors. Western blot analysis revealed an epinephrine-induced increase in the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and ERK that disappeared in presence of respectively PP2 and SB2020190. In addition, an inhibitory effect, similar to that of epinephrine’s, was observed upon incubation with PGE2. It was concluded that epinephrine inhibits the Na+/K+-ATPase by the sequential activation of α2 adrenergic receptors, Src, p38MAPK, and ERK leading to PGE2 release.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder with a complex pathogenesis. Diarrhea is a highly prevalent and often debilitating symptom of IBD patients that results, at least in part, from an intestinal hydroelectrolytic imbalance. Evidence suggests that reduced electrolyte absorption is more relevant than increased secretion to this disequilibrium. This systematic review analyses and integrates the current evidence on the roles of epithelial Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (NKA), Na(+)/H(+) exchangers (NHEs), epithelial Na(+) channels (ENaC), and K(+) channels (KC) in IBD-associated diarrhea. NKA is the key driving force of the transepithelial ionic transport and its activity is decreased in IBD. In addition, the downregulation of apical NHE and ENaC and the upregulation of apical large-conductance KC all contribute to the IBD-associated diarrhea by lowering sodium absorption and/or increasing potassium secretion.

Abstract
The nitric oxide (NO) donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) is known to reduce aqueous humor (AH) secretion in the isolated porcine eye. Previously, SNP was found to inhibit Na,K-ATPase activity in nonpigmented ciliary epithelium (NPE), AH-secreting cells, through a cGMP/protein kinase G (PKG)-mediated pathway. Here we show Src family kinase (SFK) activation in the Na,K-ATPase activity response to SNP. Ouabain-sensitive (86) Rb uptake was reduced by >35% in cultured NPE cells exposed to SNP (100 µM) or exogenously added cGMP (8-Br-cGMP) (100 µM) and the SFK inhibitor PP2 (10 µM) prevented the response. Ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis was reduced by ~40% in samples detected in material obtained from SNP- and 8-Br-cGMP-treated cells following homogenization, pointing to an intrinsic change of Na,K-ATPase activity. Tyrosine-10 phosphorylation of Na,K-ATPase α1 subunit was detected in SNP and L-arginine-treated cells and the response prevented by PP2. SNP elicited an increase in cell cGMP. Cells exposed to 8-Br-cGMP displayed SFK activation (phosphorylation) and inhibition of both ouabain-sensitive (86) Rb uptake and Na,K-ATPase activity that was prevented by PP2. SFK activation, which also occurred in SNP-treated cells, was suppressed by inhibitors of soluble guanylate cyclase (ODQ; 10 µM) and PKG (KT5823; 1 µM). SNP and 8-Br-cGMP also increased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK and the response prevented by PP2. However, U0126 did not prevent SNP or 8-Br-cGMP-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity. Taken together, the results suggest that NO activates guanylate cyclase to cause a rise in cGMP and subsequent PKG-dependent SFK activation. Inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity depends on SFK activation.

Abstract
Cell shrinkage is a hallmark and contributes to signaling of apoptosis. Apoptotic cell shrinkage requires ion transport across the cell membrane involving K(+) channels, Cl(-) or anion channels, Na(+)/H(+) exchange, Na(+),K(+),Cl(-) cotransport, and Na(+)/K(+)ATPase. Activation of K(+) channels fosters K(+) exit with decrease of cytosolic K(+) concentration, activation of anion channels triggers exit of Cl(-), organic osmolytes, and HCO3(-). Cellular loss of K(+) and organic osmolytes as well as cytosolic acidification favor apoptosis. Ca(2+) entry through Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels may result in apoptosis by affecting mitochondrial integrity, stimulating proteinases, inducing cell shrinkage due to activation of Ca(2+)-sensitive K(+) channels, and triggering cell-membrane scrambling. Signaling involved in the modification of cell-volume regulatory ion transport during apoptosis include mitogen-activated kinases p38, JNK, ERK1/2, MEKK1, MKK4, the small G proteins Cdc42, and/or Rac and the transcription factor p53. Osmosensing involves integrin receptors, focal adhesion kinases, and tyrosine kinase receptors. Hyperosmotic shock leads to vesicular acidification followed by activation of acid sphingomyelinase, ceramide formation, release of reactive oxygen species, activation of the tyrosine kinase Yes with subsequent stimulation of CD95 trafficking to the cell membrane. Apoptosis is counteracted by mechanisms involved in regulatory volume increase (RVI), by organic osmolytes, by focal adhesion kinase, and by heat-shock proteins. Clearly, our knowledge on the interplay between cell-volume regulatory mechanisms and suicidal cell death is still far from complete and substantial additional experimental effort is needed to elucidate the role of cell-volume regulatory mechanisms in suicidal cell death.

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of aminoguanidine (AG), a selective inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor, and pentoxifylline (PTX), a tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitor, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac stress. Rats were divided into four groups: group I served as a control, group II (LPS) received a single intraperitoneal injection of LPS (10 mg·kg(-1) ), group III (LPS+AG) and group IV (LPS+PTX) were injected with either AG (100 mg·kg(-1) ) or PTX (150 mg·kg(-1) ) intraperitoneally 10 days prior to LPS administration. Normalization of cardiac levels of nitrite/nitrate (NO(X) ), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and Na(+) , K(+) -ATPase activities was evident in the AG group. Both AG and PTX decreased the elevated serum TNF-α levels, the activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK) and cardiac myeloperoxidase (MPO). The levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphocreatine (PCr) were enhanced following AG and PTX pretreatments. Calcium (Ca(2+) ) levels were altered, and the histopathological observations supported the described results. Conclusively, the study highlights the cardioprotective potential of AG and PTX with superior results from AG. These findings reveal the relative contribution of nitric oxide and TNF-α to oxidative stress and energy failure during endotoxemia.

Abstract
Astrocytes respond to inflammatory stimuli and may be important modulators of the inflammatory response in the nervous system. This study aimed first to assess how astrocytes in primary culture behave in response to inflammatory stimuli concerning intracellular Ca(2+) responses, expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, actin filament organization, and expression of cytokines. In a cell culture model with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), astrocyte response was assessed first in the acute phase and then after incubation with LPS for 1-48 h. The concentration curve for LPS-stimulated Ca(2+) responses was bell-shaped, and the astrocytes expressed TLR4, which detects LPS and evokes intracellular Ca(2+) transients. After a long incubation with LPS, TLR4 was up-regulated, LPS-evoked Ca(2+) transients were expressed as oscillations, Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase was down-regulated, and the actin filaments were disorganized. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) release was increased after 24 h in LPS. A second aim was to try to restore the LPS-induced changes in astrocytes with substances that may have dose-dependent anti-inflammatory properties. Naloxone and ouabain were tested separately in ultralow or high concentrations. Both substances evoked intracellular Ca(2+) transients for all of the concentrations from 10(-15) up to 10(-4) M. Neither substance blocked the TLR4-evoked Ca(2+) responses. Naloxone and ouabain prevented the LPS-induced down-regulation of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and restored the actin filaments. Ouabain, in addition, reduced the IL-1β release from reactive astrocytes. Notably, ultralow concentrations (10(-12) M) of naloxone and ouabain showed these qualities. Ouabain seems to be more potent in these effects of the two tested substances.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite is a reactive oxidant produced from nitric oxide and superoxide, which reacts with proteins, lipids, and DNA, and promotes cytotoxic and proinflammatory responses. Here, we overview the role of peroxynitrite in various forms of circulatory shock. Immunohistochemical and biochemical evidences demonstrate the production of peroxynitrite in various experimental models of endotoxic and hemorrhagic shock both in rodents and in large animals. In addition, biological markers of peroxynitrite have been identified in human tissues after circulatory shock. Peroxynitrite can initiate toxic oxidative reactions in vitro and in vivo. Initiation of lipid peroxidation, direct inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory chain enzymes, inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, inhibition of membrane Na+/K+ ATPase activity, inactivation of membrane sodium channels, and other oxidative protein modifications contribute to the cytotoxic effect of peroxynitrite. In addition, peroxynitrite is a potent trigger of DNA strand breakage, with subsequent activation of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which promotes cellular energetic collapse and cellular necrosis. Additional actions of peroxynitrite that contribute to the pathogenesis of shock include inactivation of catecholamines and catecholamine receptors (leading to vascular failure) and endothelial and epithelial injury (leading to endothelial and epithelial hyperpermeability and barrier dysfunction), as well as myocyte injury (contributing to loss of cardiac contractile function). Neutralization of peroxynitrite with potent peroxynitrite decomposition catalysts provides cytoprotective and beneficial effects in rodent and large-animal models of circulatory shock.

Abstract
Earlier, we found that systemic administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 4 mg/kg) hyperpolarized the transepithelial potential difference (V(t)) of tracheal epithelium in the isolated, perfused trachea (IPT) of the guinea pig 18 h after injection. As well, LPS increased the hyperpolarization component of the response to basolateral methacholine, and potentiated the epithelium-derived relaxing factor-mediated relaxation responses to hyperosmolar solutions applied to the apical membrane. We hypothesized that LPS stimulates the transepithelial movement of Na(+) via the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)/Na(+)-K(+) pump axis, leading to hyperpolarization of V(t). LPS increased the V(t)-depolarizing response to amiloride (10 μM), i.e., offset the effect of LPS, indicating that Na(+) transport activity was increased. The functional activity of ENaC was measured in the IPT after short-circuiting the Na(+)-K(+) pump with basolateral amphotericin B (7.5 μM). LPS had no effect on the hyperpolarization response to apical trypsin (100 U/ml) in the Ussing chamber, indicating that channel-activating proteases are not involved in the LPS-induced activation of ENaC. To assess Na(+)-K(+) pump activity in the IPT, ENaC was short-circuited with apical amphotericin B. The greater V(t) in the presence of amphotericin B in tracheas from LPS-treated animals compared with controls revealed that LPS increased Na(+)-K(+) pump activity. This finding was confirmed in the Ussing chamber by inhibiting the Na(+)-K(+) pump via extracellular K(+) removal, loading the epithelium with Na(+), and observing a greater hyperpolarization response to K(+) restoration. Together, the findings of this study reveal that LPS hyperpolarizes the airway epithelium by increasing the activities of ENaC and the Na(+)-K(+) pump.

Sodium supplementation given for 1 wk to nonpregnant rats induces changes that are adequate to maintain renal and circulatory homeostasis as well as arterial blood pressure. However, in pregnant rats, proteinuria, fetal growth restriction, and placental oxidative stress are observed. Moreover, the decrease in blood pressure and expansion of circulatory volume, normally associated with pregnancy, are prevented by high-sodium intake. We hypothesized that, in these pregnant rats, a loss of the balance between prooxidation and antioxidation, particularly in kidneys and heart, disturbs the normal course of pregnancy and leads to manifestations such as gestational hypertension. We thus investigated the presence of oxidative/nitrosative stress in heart and kidneys following high-sodium intake in pregnant rats. Markers of this stress [8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) (8-iso-PGF(2alpha)) and nitrotyrosine], producer of nitric oxide [nitric oxide synthases (NOSs)], and antioxidants [superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase] were measured. Then, molecules (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and aconitase) or process [apoptosis (Bax and Bcl-2), inflammation (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, connective tissue growth factor, and TNF-alpha)] susceptible to free radicals was determined. In kidneys from pregnant rats on 1.8% NaCl-water, NOSs, apoptotic index, and nitrotyrosine expression were increased, whereas Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase mRNA and activity were decreased. In the left cardiac ventricle of these rats, heightened nitrotyrosine, 8-iso-PGF(2alpha), and catalase activity together with reduced endothelial NOS protein expression and SOD and aconitase activities were observed. These findings suggest that oxidative/nitrosative stress in kidney and left cardiac ventricle destabilizes the normal course of pregnancy and could lead to gestational hypertension.

Abstract
1. We developed a novel method to isolate nonpigmented epithelial (NPE) cells from porcine eyes in order to examine Na,K-ATPase responses to nitric oxide (NO) donors specifically in the epithelium. 2. Cells were treated with NO donors and other test compounds for 20 min prior to Na,K-ATPase activity measurement. 3. NO donors, sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 1 microM-1 mM), sodium azide (100 nM-1 microM) and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (1 microM-1 mM) caused significant concentration-dependent inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity. Detection of nitrite in the medium of L-arginine and SNP-treated NPE confirmed NO generation. 4. Concentration-dependent inhibition of Na,K-ATPase was also obtained by L-arginine (1-3 mM), a physiological precursor of NO and 8p-CPT-cGMP (1-100 microM), a cell permeable analog of cGMP. The L-arginine effect was abolished when the NO synthesizing enzyme, NO-synthase, was inhibited by L-NAME (100 microM). 5. The inhibitory effect of SNP or sodium azide on Na,K-ATPase activity was suppressed by soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) inhibitors, ODQ (10 microM) or methylene blue (10 microM). 6. The inhibitory effect of 8p-CPT-cGMP on Na,K-ATPase was abolished by protein kinase G (PKG) inhibitors, H-8 (1 microM) and H-9 (20 microM), but not by the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor H-89 (100 nM). H-8 and H-9 partially suppressed the inhibitory effect of SNP on Na,K-ATPase. 7. Taken together the results indicate that Na,K-ATPase inhibition response to NO donors involves activation of sGC, generation of cGMP and activation of PKG. These findings suggest that Na,K-ATPase inhibition in NPE may contribute to the ability of NO donors to reduce aqueous humor secretion.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration on plasma nitrite, nitrotyrosine and 6-keto prostaglandin F1alpha, (PGF1alpha) levels and the related resultant changes in function and histochemistry of aorta in rats. Plasma nitrite and PGF1alpha nitrotyrosine levels were analysed after 5 mg/kg intravenous LPS was administered to rats compared with those in non-treated rats. The distribution of nitrotyrosine in the aorta was studied immunohistochemically. The contractile responses of aortic rings to phenylephrine (PE) from both the LPS-treated and control rats were studied in the organ baths. There were increases in plasma nitrite, PGF1alpha, and nitrotyrosine concentrations of LPS-treated rats compared to non-treated rats. Immunoreactivity of nitrotyrosine residues were detected in the endothelial and smooth muscle cells in LPS-treated but not in control rat aorta. The contractile responses to PE of the LPS-treated rat aortic rings were significantly reduced as compared with those of control rat's. Incubation of the aortic rings from LPS-treated rats with cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacine or with a combination of indomethacine and nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) increased the contractile responses to the levels observed in control rats suggesting that both prostanoids and particularly nitric oxide (NO) are involved in the reduced contractile responses in LPS-treated rats. These results supported the view that LPS might cause an increment in both NO and PGI2 levels. This increase in the NO and PGI2 levels may be responsible from the reduction in responses of aorta to contractile agents in LPS-treated rats. Increased peroxynitrite formation in LPS-treated rats may lead to nitration of the tyrosil residues of the proteins in the aorta.
