Effects of seawater acclimation on two Na +/K +-ATPase α-subunit isoforms in the gills of the marble goby, Oxyeleotris marmorata. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2020; 253:110853. [PMID: 33249144 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2020.110853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2020] [Revised: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 11/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The marble goby, Oxyeleotris marmorata, is a freshwater teleost, but can acclimate progressively to survive in seawater (salinity 30). As an obligatory air-breather, it can also survive long periods of emersion. Two isoforms of Na+/K+-ATPase (nka) α-subunit, nkaα1 and nkaα3, but not nkaα2, had been cloned from the gills of O. marmorata. The cDNA sequence of nkaα1 consisted of 3069 nucleotides, coding for 1023 amino acids (112.5 kDa), whereas nkaα3 consisted of 2976 nucleotides, coding for 992 amino acids (109.5 kDa). As only one form of branchial Nkaα1 was identified using molecular cloning in this study, O. marmorata lacks specific freshwater- and seawater-type Nkaα isoforms as demonstrated by some other euryhaline fish species. The nkaα1 transcript level was about 2.5-fold higher than that of nkaα3 in the gills of freshwater O. marmorata. During exposure to seawater, the branchial transcript level of nkaα1 increased significantly on day 1 (~3.3-fold) and day 6 (~2.6-fold). By contrast, the branchial transcript level of nkaα3 increased significantly on day 1 (~2.6-fold), but not on day 6, of seawater exposure. Six days of exposure to seawater also led to significant increases in protein abundances of Nkaα1 (~6.9-fold) and Nkaα3 (~2.8-fold) in the gills of O. marmorata. Hence, the mRNA and protein expressions of both nkaα1/Nkaα1 and nkaα3/Nkaα3 were up-regulated in O. marmorata during seawater acclimation. This could explain why Vmax increases but Km for Na+ and K+ remain unchanged in Nka extracted from the gills of O. marmorata acclimated to seawater as reported previously.

The inner mantle of the giant clam, Tridacna squamosa, expresses a basolateral Na+/K+-ATPase α-subunit, which displays light-dependent gene and protein expression along the shell-facing epithelium.

Abstract
Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) is essential for maintaining the Na+ and K+ gradients, and supporting the secondary active transport of certain ions/molecules, across the plasma membrane of animal cells. This study aimed to clone the NKA α-subunit (NKAα) from the inner mantle adjacent to the extrapallial fluid of Tridacna squamosa, to determine its subcellular localization, and to examine the effects of light exposure on its transcript level and protein abundance. The cDNA coding sequence of NKAα from T. squamosa comprised 3105 bp, encoding 1034 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 114 kDa. NKAα had a basolateral localization along the shell-facing epithelium of the inner mantle. Exposure to 12 h of light led to a significantly stronger basolateral NKAα-immunofluorescence at the shell-facing epithelium, indicating that NKA might play a role in light-enhanced calcification in T. squamosa. After 3 h of light exposure, the transcript level of NKAα decreased transiently in the inner mantle, but returned to the control level thereafter. In comparison, the protein abundance of NKAα remained unchanged at hour 3, but became significantly higher than the control after 12 h of light exposure. Hence, the expression of NKAα in the inner mantle of T. squamosa was light-dependent. It is probable that a higher expression level of NKA was needed in the shell-facing epithelial cells of the inner mantle to cope with a rise in Na+ influx, possibly caused by increases in activities of some Na+-dependent ion transporters/channels involved in light-enhanced calcification.

Abstract
Control over the Na,K-ATPase function plays a central role in adaptation of the organisms to hypoxic and anoxic conditions. As the enzyme itself does not possess O2 binding sites its "oxygen-sensitivity" is mediated by a variety of redox-sensitive modifications including S-glutathionylation, S-nitrosylation, and redox-sensitive phosphorylation. This is an overview of the current knowledge on the plethora of molecular mechanisms tuning the activity of the ATP-consuming Na,K-ATPase to the cellular metabolic activity. Recent findings suggest that oxygen-derived free radicals and H2O2, NO, and oxidized glutathione are the signaling messengers that make the Na,K-ATPase "oxygen-sensitive." This very ancient signaling pathway targeting thiols of all three subunits of the Na,K-ATPase as well as redox-sensitive kinases sustains the enzyme activity at the "optimal" level avoiding terminal ATP depletion and maintaining the transmembrane ion gradients in cells of anoxia-tolerant species. We acknowledge the complexity of the underlying processes as we characterize the sources of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species production in hypoxic cells, and identify their targets, the reactive thiol groups which, upon modification, impact the enzyme activity. Structured accordingly, this review presents a summary on (i) the sources of free radical production in hypoxic cells, (ii) localization of regulatory thiols within the Na,K-ATPase and the role reversible thiol modifications play in responses of the enzyme to a variety of stimuli (hypoxia, receptors' activation) (iii) redox-sensitive regulatory phosphorylation, and (iv) the role of fine modulation of the Na,K-ATPase function in survival success under hypoxic conditions. The co-authors attempted to cover all the contradictions and standing hypotheses in the field and propose the possible future developments in this dynamic area of research, the importance of which is hard to overestimate. Better understanding of the processes underlying successful adaptation strategies will make it possible to harness them and use for treatment of patients with stroke and myocardial infarction, sleep apnoea and high altitude pulmonary oedema, and those undergoing surgical interventions associated with the interruption of blood perfusion.

Molecular characterization and transcriptional regulation of the Na +/K+ ATPase α subunit isoforms during development and salinity challenge in a teleost fish, the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis). Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2014; 175:23-38.

Abstract
In the present work, five genes encoding different Na(+),K(+) ATPase (NKA) α-isoforms in the teleost Solea senegalensis are described for the first time. Sequence analysis of predicted polypeptides revealed a high degree of conservation across teleosts and mammals. Phylogenetic analysis clustered the five genes into three main clades: α1 (designated atp1a1a and atp1a1b), α2 (designated atp1a2) and α3 (designated atp1a3a and atp1a3b) isoforms. Transcriptional analysis in larvae showed distinct expression profiles during development. In juvenile tissues, the atp1a1a gene was highly expressed in osmoregulatory organs, atp1a2 in skeletal muscle, atp1a1b in brain and heart and atp1a3a and atp1a3b mainly in brain. Quantification of mRNA abundance after a salinity challenge showed that atp1a1a transcript levels increased significantly in the gill of soles transferred to high salinity water (60 ppt). In contrast, atp1a3a transcripts increased at low salinity (5 ppt). In situ hybridization (ISH) analysis revealed that the number of ionocytes expressing atp1a1a transcripts in the primary gill filaments was higher at 35 and 60 ppt than at 5 ppt and remained undetectable or at very low levels in the lamellae at 5 and 35 ppt but increased at 60 ppt. Immunohistochemistry showed a higher number of positive cells in the lamellae. Whole-mount analysis of atp1a1a mRNA in young sole larvae revealed that it was localized in gut, pronephric tubule, gill, otic vesicle, yolk sac ionocytes and chordacentrum. Moreover, atp1a1a mRNAs increased at mouth opening (3 DPH) in larvae incubated at 36 ppt with a greater signal in gills.

Abstract
The giant mudskipper, Periophthalmodon schlosseri, is an amphibious fish that builds burrows in the mudflats. It can actively excrete ammonia through its gills, and tolerate high environmental ammonia. This study aimed to examine the effects of seawater (salinity 30; SW) acclimation and/or environmental ammonia exposure on the kinetic properties of Na+/K+-ATPase (Nka) from, and mRNA expression and protein abundance of nka/Nka α–subunit isoforms in, the gills of P. schlosseri pre-acclimated to slightly brackish water (salinity 3; SBW). Our results revealed that the Nka from the gills of P. schlosseri pre-acclimated to SBW for 2 weeks had substantially higher affinity to (or lower Km for) K+ than NH+4, and its affinity to NH+4 decreased significantly after 6-days exposure to 75 mmol l−1 NH4Cl in SBW. Hence, Nka transported K+ selectively to maintain intracellular K+ homeostasis, instead of transporting NH+4 from the blood into ionocytes during active NH+4 excretion as previously suggested. Two nkaα isoforms, nkaα1 and nkaα3, were cloned and sequenced from the gills of P. schlosseri. Their deduced amino acid sequences had K+ binding sites identical to that of Nkaα1c from Anabas testudineus, indicating that they could effectively differentiate K+ from NH+4. Six days of exposure to 75 mmol l−1 NH4Cl in SBW, or to SW with or without 50 mmol l−1 NH4Cl led to significant increases in Nka activities in the gills of P. schlosseri. However, a significant increase in the comprehensive Nkaα protein abundance was observed only in the gills of fish exposed to 50 mmol l−1 NH4Cl in SW. Hence, post-translational modification could be an important activity modulator of branchial Nka in P. schlosseri. The fast modulation of Nka activity and concurrent expressions of two branchial nkaα isoforms could in part contribute to the ability of P. schlosseri to survive abrupt transfer between SBW and SW or abrupt exposure to ammonia.

Abstract
The alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) is a clupeid that undergoes larval and juvenile development in freshwater preceding marine habitation. The purpose of this study was to investigate osmoregulatory mechanisms in alewives that permit homeostasis in different salinities. To this end, we measured physiological, branchial biochemical and cellular responses in juvenile alewives acclimated to freshwater (0.5 p.p.t.) or seawater (35.0 p.p.t.). Plasma chloride concentration was higher in seawater-acclimated than freshwater-acclimated individuals (141 mmol l(-1) vs 134 mmol l(-1)), but the hematocrit remained unchanged. In seawater-acclimated individuals, branchial Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (NKA) activity was higher by 75%. Western blot analysis indicated that the abundance of the NKA α-subunit and a Na(+)/K(+)/2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC1) were greater in seawater-acclimated individuals by 40% and 200%, respectively. NKA and NKCC1 were localized on the basolateral surface and tubular network of ionocytes in both acclimation groups. Immunohistochemical labeling for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) was restricted to the apical crypt of ionocytes in seawater-acclimated individuals, whereas sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) labeling was present on the apical surface of ionocytes in both acclimation groups. Ionocytes were concentrated on the trailing edge of the gill filament, evenly distributed along the proximal 75% of the filamental axis and reduced distally. Ionocyte size and number on the gill filament were not affected by salinity; however, the number of lamellar ionocytes was significantly lower in seawater-acclimated fish. Confocal z-series reconstructions revealed that mature ionocytes in seawater-acclimated alewives occurred in multicellular complexes. These complexes might reduce paracellular Na(+) resistance, hence facilitating Na(+) extrusion in hypo-osmoregulating juvenile alewives after seaward migration.

Abstract
Three Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (nka) α-subunit isoforms, nka α1a, nka α1b, and nka α1c, were identified from gills of the freshwater climbing perch Anabas testudineus. The cDNA sequences of nka α1a and nka α1b consisted of 3,069 bp, coding for 1,023 amino acids, whereas nka α1c was shorter by 22 nucleotides at the 5' end. In freshwater, the quantity of nka α1c mRNA transcripts present in the gills was the highest followed by nka α1a and nka α1b that was almost undetectable. The mRNA expression of nka α1a was downregulated in the gills of fish acclimated to seawater, indicating that it could be involved in branchial Na(+) absorption in a hypoosmotic environment. By contrast, seawater acclimation led to an upregulation of the mRNA expression of nka α1b and to a lesser extent nka α1c, indicating that they could be essential for ion secretion in a hyperosmotic environment. More importantly, ammonia exposure led to a significant upregulation of the mRNA expression of nka α1c, which might be involved in active ammonia excretion. Both seawater acclimation and ammonia exposure led to significant increases in the protein abundance and changes in the kinetic properties of branchial Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (Nka), but they involved two different types of Nka-immunoreactive cells. Since there was a decrease in the effectiveness of NH(4)(+) to substitute for K(+) to activate branchial Nka from fish exposed to ammonia, Nka probably functioned to remove excess Na(+) and to transport K(+) instead of NH(4)(+) into the cell to maintain intracellular Na(+) and K(+) homeostasis during active ammonia excretion.

Angiotensin II-dependent phosphorylation at Ser11/Ser18 and Ser938 shifts the E2 conformations of rat kidney Na+/K+-ATPase. Biochem J 2012; 443:249-58.

Abstract
Kidney plasma membranes, which contain a single α-1 isoform of Na+/K+-ATPase, simultaneously contain two sub-conformations of E2P, differing in their rate of digoxin release in response to Na+ and ATP. Treating cells with Ang II (angiotensin II) somehow changes the conformation of both, because it differentially inhibits the rate of digoxin release. In the present study we tested whether Ang II regulates release by increasing phosphorylation at Ser11/Ser18 and Ser938. Opossum kidney cells co-expressing the AT1a receptor and either α-1.wild-type, α-1.S11A/S18A or α-1.S938A were treated with or without 10 nM Ang II for 5 min, increasing phosphorylation at the three sites. Na+/K+-ATPase was bound to digoxin-affinity columns in the presence of Na+, ATP and Mg2+. A solution containing 30 mM NaCl and 3 mM ATP eluted ~20% of bound untreated Na+/K+-ATPase (Population #1). Pre-treating cells with Ang II slowed the elution of Population #1 in α-1.wild-type and α-1.S938A, but not α-1.S11A/S18A cells. Another 50% of bound Na+/K+-ATPase (Population #2) was subsequently eluted in two phases by a solution containing 150 mM NaCl and 3 mM ATP. Ang II increased the initial rate and slowed the second phase in α-1.wild-type, but not α-1.S938A, cells. Thus Ang II changes the conformation of two forms of EP2 via differential phosphorylation.

Abstract
Phosphorylation is one of the major mechanisms for posttranscriptional modification of proteins. The addition of a compact, negatively charged moiety to a protein can significantly change its function and localization by affecting its structure and interaction network. We have used all-atom Molecular Dynamics simulations to investigate the structural consequences of phosphorylating the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (NKA) residue Ser(936), which is the best characterized phosphorylation site in NKA, targeted in vivo by protein kinase A (PKA). The Molecular Dynamics simulations suggest that Ser(936) phosphorylation opens a C-terminal hydrated pathway leading to Asp(926), a transmembrane residue proposed to form part of the third sodium ion-binding site. Simulations of a S936E mutant form, for which only subtle effects are observed when expressed in Xenopus oocytes and studied with electrophysiology, does not mimic the effects of Ser(936) phosphorylation. The results establish a structural association of Ser(936) with the C terminus of NKA and indicate that phosphorylation of Ser(936) can modulate pumping activity by changing the accessibility to the ion-binding site.

Abstract
In Rhinella arenarum spermiation occurs as a consequence of LH/FSH increase during the amplexus or by a single dose of hCG, among other gonadotropins. The present study employs an in vitro system to study the mechanism of action of hCG in the spermiation of R. arenarum. Testicular fragments were incubated for 2h at 28°C in the presence or absence of 20IU hCG with or without different PKA/PKC inhibitors and activators as well as ouabain and amiloride as Na(+)/K(+) ATPase and transcellular Na(+) transport inhibitors, respectively. Ouabain did not induce spermiation in absence of hCG and inhibited hCG-induced spermiation in a dose-dependent manner, reaching 90% inhibition with the higher concentration. In contrast, amiloride neither affected spermiation nor steroidogenesis. Activation of PKA with 8Br-cAMP induced spermiation in the absence of hCG while its inhibition with H89 blocked hCG action. On the other hand, PKC inhibition with Bi or STP did not affect hCG-induced spermiation although PKC activation significantly decreased hCG-dependent sperm release. These results suggest that PKC inhibits spermiation but also that the inhibition exerted by the kinase could be blocked by hCG. Taken together, these observations could indicate that PKA is involved in the mechanism of the gonadotropin action, mechanism also requiring the activation of a non-pumping Na(+)/K(+) ATPase pathway.

Abstract
The stimulation of fluid and electrolyte secretion in salivary cells results in ionic changes that promote rapid increases in the activity of the Na,K-ATPase. In many cell systems, there are conflicting findings concerning the regulation of the phosphorylation of the Na,K-ATPase α subunit, which is the catalytic moiety. Initially, we investigated the phosphorylation sites on the α1 subunit in native rat parotid acinar cells using tandem mass spectrometry and identified two new phosphorylation sites (Ser(222), Ser(407)), three sites (Ser(217), Tyr(260), Ser(47)) previously found from large scale proteomic screens, and two sites (Ser(23), Ser(16)) known to be phosphorylated by PKC. Subsequently, we used phospho-specific antibodies to examine the regulation of phosphorylation on Ser(23) and Ser(16) and measured changes in ERK phosphorylation in parallel. The G-protein-coupled muscarinic receptor mimetic carbachol, the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, the Ca(2+) ionophore ionomycin, and the serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A increased Ser(23) α1 phosphorylation. Inhibition of classical PKC proteins blocked carbachol-stimulated Ser(23) α1 subunit phosphorylation but not ERK phosphorylation, which was blocked by an inhibitor of novel PKC proteins. The carbachol-initiated phosphorylation of Ser(23) α1 subunit was not modified by ERK or PKA activity. The Na,K-ATPase inhibitor ouabain reduced and enhanced the carbachol-promoted phosphorylation of Ser(23) and Ser(16), respectively, the latter because ouabain itself increased Ser(16) phosphorylation; thus, both sites display conformational-dependent phosphorylation changes. Ouabain-initiated phosphorylation of Ser(16) α1 was not blocked by PKC inhibitors, unlike carbachol- or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-initiated phosphorylations, suggesting that this site was also a substrate for a kinase other than PKC.

Abstract
Phosphorylation is a widely used, reversible means of regulating enzymatic activity. Among the important phosphorylation targets are the Na(+),K(+)- and H(+),K(+)-ATPases that pump ions against their chemical gradients to uphold ionic concentration differences over the plasma membrane. The two pumps are very homologous, and at least one of the phosphorylation sites is conserved, namely a cAMP activated protein kinase (PKA) site, which is important for regulating pumping activity, either by changing the cellular distribution of the ATPases or by directly altering the kinetic properties as supported by electrophysiological results presented here. We further review the other proposed pump phosphorylations.

Abstract
PURPOSE The Na(+)- and K(+)-dependent ATPase (Na,K-ATPase) expressed in the basolateral membrane of corneal endothelial cells plays an important role in the pump function of the corneal endothelium. We investigated the possible role of dexamethasone in the regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity and pump function in corneal endothelial cells. METHODS Confluent monolayers of mouse corneal endothelial cells were exposed to dexamethasone. ATPase activity of the cells was evaluated by spectrophotometric measurement of phosphate released from ATP with the use of ammonium molybdate, with Na,K-ATPase activity being defined as the portion of total ATPase activity sensitive to ouabain. Pump function of the cells was measured with the use of an Ussing chamber, with the pump function attributable to Na,K-ATPase activity being defined as the portion of the total short-circuit current sensitive to ouabain. Western blot analysis was examined to measure the expression of the Na,K-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit. RESULTS Dexamethasone (1 or 10 microM) increased the Na,K-ATPase activity and pump function of the cultured cells. These effects of dexamethasone were blocked by cycloheximide, a protein synthesis inhibitor. Western blot analysis also indicated that dexamethasone increased the expression of the Na,K-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit, whereas it decreased the expression of the phospho-Na,K-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that dexamethasone stimulates Na,K-ATPase activity in mouse corneal endothelial cells. The effect of dexamethasone activation in these cells is mediated by Na,K-ATPase synthesis and increase in an enzymatic activity by dephosphorylation of Na,K-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits.

Abstract
The red blood cell membrane is specialized to exchange chloride and bicarbonate; usually the pH gradient, the chloride ratio, and the membrane potential are tightly coupled. We review the evidence that led to the ability to separately vary inside and outside pH in red cells. The effect of pH on Na pump activity and on the selectivity of the inside and the outside transport sites is reviewed. In red blood cells, at high pH, the outside site is not selective. An increase in protons leads to an increase in K(+) affinity, thus making the site more selective. The pK for this site is different in rats and humans; because of the high conservation of residues in these two species, there are only a few possible residues that can account for this difference. On the inside, work from unsided preparations suggests that, at high pH, the transport site is highly selective for Na(+). Once again, an increase in protons leads to an increase in K(+) affinity, but now the result is a less selective site. During their maturation, reticulocytes lose many membrane proteins. The type and fractional loss is species dependent. For example, most reticulocytes lose most of their Na pumps, retaining about 100 pumps per cell, but animals from the order Carnivora lose all their pumps. We review some of the evidence that PKC phosphorylation of N-terminus serines is responsible for endocytosis in other cell types and species variation in this region.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite is a reactive nitrogen species produced when nitric oxide and superoxide react. In vivo studies suggest that reactive oxygen species and, perhaps, peroxynitrite can influence Na-K-ATPase function. However, the direct effects of peroxynitrite on Na-K-ATPase function remain unknown. We show that a single bolus addition of peroxynitrite inhibited purified renal Na-K-ATPase activity, with IC50 of 107+/-9 microM. To mimic cellular/physiological production of peroxynitrite, a syringe pump was used to slowly release (approximately 0.85 microM/s) peroxynitrite. The inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity induced by this treatment was similar to that induced by a single bolus addition of equal cumulative concentration. Peroxynitrite produced 3-nitrotyrosine residues on the alpha, beta, and FXYD subunits of the Na pump. Interestingly, the flavonoid epicatechin, which prevented tyrosine nitration, was unable to blunt peroxynitrite-induced ATPase inhibition, suggesting that tyrosine nitration is not required for inhibition. Peroxynitrite led to a decrease in iodoacetamidofluorescein labeling, implying that cysteine modifications were induced. Glutathione was unable to reverse ATPase inhibition. The presence of Na+ and low MgATP during peroxynitrite treatment increased the IC50 to 145+/-10 microM, while the presence of K+ and low MgATP increased the IC50 to 255+/-13 microM. This result suggests that the EPNa conformation of the pump is slightly more sensitive to peroxynitrite than the E(K) conformation. Taken together, these results show that peroxynitrite is a potent inhibitor of Na-K-ATPase activity and that peroxynitrite can induce amino acid modifications to the pump.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies have identified the natural polyphenol curcumin as a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. In contrast, we found significant stimulation of PKC activity following curcumin treatment. Thus, the mechanism of curcumin interaction with PKC was investigated. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH We employed phosphorylation assays in the presence of soluble or membrane-bound PKC substrates, followed by SDS-PAGE, autoradiography and phosphorylation intensity measurements. KEY RESULTS Curcumin inhibited PKC in the absence of membranes whereas stimulation was observed in the presence of membranes. Further analysis indicated that curcumin decreased PKC activity by competition with Ca(2+) stimulation of the kinase, resulting in inhibition of activity at lower Ca(2+) concentrations and stimulation at higher Ca(2+) concentrations. The role of the membrane is likely to be facilitation of Ca(2+)-binding to the kinase, thus relieving the curcumin inhibition observed at limited Ca(2+) concentrations. Curcumin was found to mildly stimulate the catalytic subunit of PKC, which does not require Ca(2+) for activation. In addition, studies on Ca(2+)-independent PKC isoforms as well as another curcumin target (the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase) confirmed a correlation between Ca(2+) concentration and the curcumin effects. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Curcumin competes with Ca(2+) for the regulatory domain of PKC, resulting in a Ca(2+)-dependent dual effect on the kinase. We propose that curcumin interacts with the Ca(2+)-binding domains in target proteins. To our knowledge, this is the first study that defines an interaction domain for curcumin, and provides a rationale for the broad specificity of this polyphenol as a chemopreventive drug.

Abstract
Phospholemman (PLM) or FXYD1 is a major cardiac myocyte phosphorylation target upon adrenergic stimulation. Prior immunoprecipitation and functional studies suggest that phospholemman associates with the Na/K-pump (NKA) and mediates adrenergic Na/K-pump regulation. Here, we tested whether the NKA-PLM interaction is close enough to allow fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between cyan and yellow fluorescent (CFP/YFP) fusion proteins of Na/K pump and phospholemman and whether phospholemman phosphorylation alters such FRET. Co-expressed NKA-CFP and PLM-YFP in HEK293 cells co-localized in the plasma membrane and exhibited robust FRET. Selective acceptor photobleach increased donor fluorescence (F(CFP)) by 21.5 +/- 4.1% (n = 13), an effect nearly abolished when co-expressing excess phospholemman lacking YFP. Activation of protein kinase C or A progressively and reversibly decreased FRET assessed by either the fluorescence ratio (F(YFP)/F(CFP)) or the enhancement of donor fluorescence after acceptor bleach. After protein kinase C activation, forskolin did not further reduce FRET, but after forskolin pretreatment, protein kinase C could still reduce FRET. This agreed with phospholemman phosphorylation measurements: by protein kinase C at both Ser-63 and Ser-68, but by protein kinase A only at Ser-68. Expression of PLM-YFP and PLM-CFP resulted in even stronger FRET than for NKA-PLM (F(CFP) increased by 37 +/- 1% upon YFP photobleach), and this FRET was enhanced by phospholemman phosphorylation, consistent with phospholemman multimerization. Co-expressed PLM-CFP and Na/Ca exchange-YFP were highly membrane co-localized, but FRET was undetectable. We conclude that phospholemman and Na/K-pump are in very close proximity (FRET occurs) and that phospholemman phosphorylation alters the interaction of Na/K-pump and phospholemman.

Abstract
The parotid gland participates in the digestive process by providing fluid, electrolytes and enzymes that facilitate the onset of digestion. Neurotransmitters, hormones and biologically active peptides regulate its activity. The autonomic system is the main regulatory mechanism of the gland. Sympathetic stimulation induces amylase release through beta(1)-receptor activation and few fluid secretion by alpha(1)-receptor activation. The parasympathetic system controls basal activity of the gland acting on M(1) and M(3) muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and induces the secretion of fluid saliva rich in electrolytes through the modulation of ion channels and the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. In addition, its activation induces amylase release. The mechanisms involved in amylase secretion by isoproterenol and carbachol, as well as the mechanism of the cholinergic regulation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity and the changes observed after orchiectomy, are the scope of this review.

Abstract
In kidney, Na+, K+-ATPase is an oligomer (alphabeta gamma) with equimolar amounts of essential alpha and beta subunits and one small hydrophobic FXYD protein (gamma subunit). This report describes gamma subunit as an activator of pig kidney outer medulla Na+, K+-ATPase in aqueous medium. The effects of gamma subunit on Na+, K+-ATPase were dose-dependent and preincubation-dependent. Changes in alphabeta/gamma stoichiometry did not alter Km1 for ATP, and slightly increased Km2, but Vmax was increased at both catalytic and regulatory sites. Hydroxylamine treatment of enzyme phosphorylated by ATP (E-P), in the presence of additional gamma subunit, revealed that 52% of the E-P accumulation was not via acyl-phosphate formation. The gamma subunit was phosphorylated by endogenous kinases and by commercial catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKA). Additionally, we demonstrated that PKA phosphorylation of gamma subunit increased its capacity to stimulate ATP hydrolysis. These results suggest that gamma subunit can act as an intrinsic Na+, K+-ATPase regulator in kidney.

Abstract
Adenylyl cyclase is activated by prostaglandin E and inhibited by mu-opioids. Since cAMP-related events influence the activity of the Na Pump and its biochemical correlate Na,K-ATPase in many systems, we tested the hypothesis that prostaglandin E1 and [D-Ala2,N-Me-Phe4,Gly5-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO), a mu-opioid agonist, have opposing actions on Na,K-ATPase activity. Studies were conducted with alamethicin-permeabilized SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Prostaglandin E1 (1 microM) transiently inhibited Na,K-ATPase activity for 10-15 min. A direct activator of protein kinase A, 8-Br-cAMP (150 and 500 microM), also inhibited, but more rapidly and for a shorter duration. Both DAMGO (1 microM) and Rp-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate (500 microM), a protein kinase A-inhibitor, reversed the inhibitory effect of prostaglandin E1. DAMGO alone (1 microM) stimulated Na,K-ATPase activity up to nearly three-fold control activity. The stimulatory action of DAMGO was blocked by cyclosporine A (2 microM), an inhibitor of calcineurin, and was dependent on Ca2+ entry through nifedipine-sensitive Ca2+ channels. In the presence of 1 mM EGTA, DAMGO inhibited Na,K-ATPase activity. DAMGO-induced inhibition was blocked by the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor antagonist xestospongin C (1 microM). Na,K-ATPase is poised to modulate neuronal excitability through its roles in maintaining the membrane potential and transmembrane ion gradients. The differential effects of prostaglandin E1 and opioids on Na,K-ATPase activity may be related to their actions in hyperalgesia.

Abstract
Cardiac sympathetic stimulation activates beta-adrenergic (beta-AR) receptors and protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation of proteins involved in myocyte Ca regulation. The Na/K-ATPase (NKA) is essential in regulating intracellular [Na] ([Na]i), which in turn affects [Ca]i via Na/Ca exchange. However, how PKA modifies NKA function is unknown. Phospholemman (PLM), a member of the FXYD family of proteins that interact with NKA in various tissues, is a major PKA substrate in heart. Here we tested the hypothesis that PLM phosphorylation is responsible for the PKA effects on cardiac NKA function using wild-type (WT) and PLM knockout (PLM-KO) mice. We measured NKA-mediated [Na]i decline and current (IPump) to assess beta-AR effects on NKA function in isolated myocytes. In WT myocytes, 1 micromol/L isoproterenol (ISO) increased PLM phosphorylation and stimulated NKA activity mainly by increasing its affinity for internal Na (Km decreased from 18.8+/-1.4 to 13.6+/-1.5 mmol/L), with no significant effect on the maximum pump rate. This led to a significant decrease in resting [Na]i (from 12.5+/-1.8 to 10.5+/-1.4 mmol/L). In PLM-KO mice under control conditions Km (14.2+/-1.5 mmol/L) was lower than in WT, but comparable to that for WT in the presence of ISO. Furthermore, ISO had no significant effect on NKA function in PLM-KO mice. ATPase activity in sarcolemmal vesicles also showed a lower Km(Na) in PLM-KO versus WT (12.9+/-0.9 versus 16.2+/-1.5). Thus, PLM inhibits NKA activity by decreasing its [Na]i affinity, and this inhibitory effect is relieved by PKA activation. We conclude that PLM modulates the NKA function in a manner similar to the way phospholamban affects the related SR Ca-ATPase (inhibition of transport substrate affinity, that is relieved by phosphorylation).

Abstract
Collecting duct (CD) principal cells are exposed to large physiologic variations of apical Na+ influx as a result of variations of Na(+) intake and extrarenal losses. It was shown previously that increasing intracellular [Na+] induces recruitment of Na,K-ATPase to the cell surface in a protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent manner in both native and cultured renal CD principal cells. As described previously in response to cytokines in nonrenal cells, PKA activation in response to increased intracellular [Na+] was independent of cAMP and required proteasomal activity. With the use of cultured mpkCCD(cL4) cells as a model of CD principal cells, whether cytokines and increased intracellular [Na+] share a common signaling pathway leading to cell-surface Na,K-ATPase recruitment was investigated. Results showed that two potent inducers of NF-kappaB, LPS and TNF-alpha, enhance Na+ transport and induce cell-surface Na,K-ATPase recruitment in mpkCCD(cL4) cells via cAMP-independent PKA activation. In addition, increased intracellular [Na+] after selective plasma membrane permeabilization by a low concentration of the Na+ ionophore amphotericin B (1 microg/ml) induced dissociation of the PKA catalytic subunit from p65-NF-kappaB and IkappaBalpha. Moreover, inhibitors of NF-kappaB/IkappaB dissociation prevented both Na+-dependent stimulation of PKA activity and cell-surface Na,K-ATPase recruitment. Altogether, these results revealed the presence of a novel Na+-dependent intracellular signaling pathway leading to Na,K-ATPase cell-surface recruitment via dissociation of the PKA catalytic subunit from a macromolecular complex that contains NF-kappaB and IkappaBalpha in CD epithelial cells.

Abstract
Arginine-vasopressin (AVP) stimulates Na(+) transport and Na-K-ATPase activity via cAMP-dependent PKA activation in the renal cortical collecting duct (CCD). We investigated the role of the Na-K-ATPase in the AVP-induced stimulation of transepithelial Na(+) transport using the mpkCCD(c14) cell model of mammalian collecting duct principal cells. AVP (10(-9) M) stimulated both the amiloride-sensitive transepithelial Na(+) transport measured in intact cells and the maximal Na pump current measured by the ouabain-sensitive short-circuit current in apically permeabilized cells. These effects were associated with increased Na-K-ATPase cell surface expression, measured by Western blotting after streptavidin precipitation of biotinylated cell surface proteins. The effects of AVP on Na pump current and Na-K-ATPase cell surface expression were dependent on PKA activity but independent of increased apical Na(+) entry. Time course experiments revealed that in response to AVP, the cell surface expression of both endogenous Na-K-ATPase and hybrid Na pumps containing a c-myc-tagged wild-type human alpha(1)-subunit increased transiently. Na-K-ATPase cell surface expression was maximal after 30 min and then declined toward baseline after 60 min. Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that PKA activation did not alter total phosphorylation levels of the endogenous Na-K-ATPase alpha-subunit. In addition, mutation of the PKA phosphorylation site (S943A or S943D) did not alter the time course of increased cell surface expression of c-myc-tagged Na-K-ATPase in response to AVP or to dibutyryl-cAMP. Therefore, stimulation of Na-K-ATPase cell surface expression by AVP is dependent on PKA but does not rely on alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation on serine 943 in the collecting duct principal cells.

Abstract
We present evidence that Na-K-ATPase in the rat proximal tubule is directly activated by ANG II much faster than previously observed. Specifically, we show that a 2-min exposure to 0.1 and 1 nM ANG II slowed the rate of intracellular sodium accumulation in response to an increase in extracellular sodium added in the presence of gramicidin D. From these data, we show that ANG II directly stimulates Na-K-ATPase activity at rate-limiting concentrations of intracellular sodium. Under these same conditions, exposing proximal tubules to ANG II altered the amount of 32P incorporated into multiple phosphopeptides generated from a tryptic digest of the alpha-subunit of Na-K-ATPase. Na-K-ATPase was isolated from whole cell lysates by means of a ouabain-affinity column and then separated into its individual subunits by SDS-PAGE. Na-K-ATPase bound to the column in its E2 conformation and was eluted by altering its conformation to E1 using Na+ATP. Na-K-ATPase isolated from cells treated with ANG II eluted more easily from the ouabain-affinity column than Na-K-ATPase isolated from control cells, suggesting that ANG II decreased the affinity of Na-K-ATPase for ouabain. Thus ANG II rapidly stimulated the activity of Na-K-ATPase in 2 min or less by a mechanism that could involve changes in phosphorylation and conformation of Na-K-ATPase. We suggest that the physiological role for rapid direct activation of Na-K-ATPase is greater control of intracellular sodium during sodium reabsorption.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibits Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity through protein kinase C- (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase- (ERK) dependent pathways and increases serine phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-subunit. To determine whether specific serine phosphorylation sites within the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit are involved in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase responses to PTH, we examined the effect of PTH in opossum kidney cells stably transfected with wild type rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit (WT), serine 11 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S11A), or serine 18 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S18A). PTH increased phosphorylation and endocytosis of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with WT and S18A rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits. PTH did not increase the level of phosphorylation or stimulate translocation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with the S11A mutant. PTH inhibited ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity (ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis) in WT- and S18A-transfected opossum kidney cells but not in S11A-transfected cells. Pretreatment of the cells with the PKC inhibitors and ERK inhibitor blocked PTH inhibition of (86)Rb uptake, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation, and endocytosis in WT and S18A cells. Consistent with the notion that ERK phosphorylates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit, ERK was shown to be capable of causing phosphorylation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit immunoprecipitated from WT and S18A but not from S11A-transfected cells. These results suggest that PTH regulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase by PKC and ERK-dependent alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation and that the phosphorylation requires the expression of a serine at the 11 position of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH), acting at least in part through a cAMP signaling pathway, regulates three important transporters in the renal proximal convoluted tubule, namely Na-H exchanger 3, Na-K ATPase, and type IIa sodium phosphate cotransporter (NaPi IIa). The regulation of Na-H exchanger 3 by protein kinase A requires a protein co-factor from the sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) family of proteins (NHERF-1 and NHERF-2). However, the role of NHERF in PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase and NaPi IIa has not been explored. For studying the role of NHERF-1 on PTH regulation of these transporters, wild-type mNHERF-1 (1-355) or mNHERF-1 (1-325) lacking the ezrin-binding domain were expressed in proximal tubule-derived opossum kidney cells. PTH inhibited Na-K ATPase activity in cells expressing wild-type NHERF-1 associated with increased serine phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of the transporter. By contrast, in cells expressing mNHERF (1-325), the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of Na-K ATPase was blunted and the activity of the transporter was stimulated in response to PTH. Basal sodium-dependent phosphate transport was lower in cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-325) as compared with cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-355). Nonetheless, there were no differences in PTH-associated inhibition of the activity or the decrease in membrane expression of the NaPi IIa in any of the cell lines. These experiments document for the first time an association between NHERF-1 and PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase in epithelial cells. These experiments also suggest that the mechanism for retrieval of NaPi IIa transporters from the apical membrane in response to cAMP does not require NHERF.

Abstract
In the mammalian kidney the fine control of Na+ reabsorption takes place in collecting duct principal cells where basolateral Na,K-ATPase provides the driving force for vectorial Na+ transport. In the cortical collecting duct (CCD), a rise in intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) was shown to increase Na,K-ATPase activity and the number of ouabain binding sites, but the mechanism responsible for this event has not yet been elucidated. A rise in [Na+]i caused by incubation with the Na+ ionophore nystatin, increased Na,K-ATPase activity and cell surface expression to the same extent in isolated rat CCD. In cultured mouse mpkCCDcl4 collecting duct cells, increasing [Na+]i either by cell membrane permeabilization with amphotericin B or nystatin, or by incubating cells in a K(+)-free medium, also increased Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression. The [Na+]i-dependent increase in Na,K-ATPase cell-surface expression was prevented by PKA inhibitors H89 and PKI. Moreover, the effects of [Na+]i and cAMP were not additive. However, [Na+]i-dependent activation of PKA was not associated with an increase in cellular cAMP but was prevented by inhibiting the proteasome. These findings suggest that Na,K-ATPase may be recruited to the cell membrane following an increase in [Na+]i through cAMP-independent PKA activation that is itself dependent on proteasomal activity.

Abstract
Previously, we have shown that renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs) recover physiological functions after injury induced by the oxidant tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP), but not by the nephrotoxic cysteine conjugate dichlorovinyl-l-cysteine (DCVC). This study examined the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in the repair of RPTC functions after sublethal injury produced by these toxicants. Total PKC activity decreased 65 and 86% after TBHP and DCVC exposures, respectively, and recovered in TBHP-injured but not in DCVC-injured RPTCs. Mitochondrial function, active Na+ transport, and Na+-dependent glucose uptake decreased after toxicant exposure and recovered in TBHP- but not in DCVC-injured RPTCs. PKC inhibition decreased the repair of RPTC functions after TBHP injury. PKC activation promoted recovery of mitochondrial function and active Na+ transport in TBHP- and DCVC-injured RPTCs but had no effect on recovery of Na+-dependent glucose uptake. We conclude that in RPTCs, 1) total PKC activity decreases after TBHP and DCVC injury and recovers after TBHP but not after DCVC exposure, 2) recovery of PKC activity precedes the return of physiological functions after oxidant injury, 3) PKC inhibition decreases recovery of physiological functions, and 4) PKC activation promotes recovery of mitochondrial function and active Na+ transport but not Na+-dependent glucose uptake. These results suggest that the repair of renal functions is mediated through PKC-dependent mechanisms and that cysteine conjugates may inhibit renal repair, in part, through inhibition of PKC signaling.

Abstract
In this study we compared the protein kinase dependent regulation of gastric H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase. The protein kinase A/protein kinase C (PKA/PKC) phosphorylation profile of H,K-ATPase was very similar to the one found in the Na,K-ATPase. PKC phosphorylation was taking place in the N-terminal part of the alpha-subunit with a stoichiometry of approximately 0.6 mol Pi/mole alpha-subunit. PKA phosphorylation was in the C-terminal part and required detergent, as is also found for the Na,K-ATPase. The stoichiometry of PKA-induced phosphorylation was approximately 0.7 mol Pi/mole alpha-subunit. Controlled proteolysis of the N-terminus abolished PKC phosphorylation of native H,K-ATPase. However, after detergent treatment additional C-terminal PKC sites became exposed located at the beginning of the M5M6 hairpin and at the cytoplasmic L89 loop close to the inner face of the plasma membrane. N-terminal PKC phosphorylation of native H,K-ATPase alpha-subunit was found to stimulate the maximal enzyme activity by 40-80% at saturating ATP, depending on pH. Thus, a direct modulation of enzyme activity by PKC phosphorylation could be demonstrated that may be additional to the well-known regulation of acid secretion by recruitment of H,K-ATPase to the apical membranes of the parietal cells. Moreover, a distinct difference in the regulation of H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase is the apparent absence of any small regulatory proteins associated with the H,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The alpha-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase is phosphorylated at specific sites by protein kinases A and C. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC) is restricted to the N terminus and takes place to a low stoichiometry, except in rat. Here we show that the alpha-subunit of shark Na,K-ATPase can be phosphorylated by PKC at C-terminal sites to stoichiometric levels in the presence of detergents. Two novel phosphorylation sites are possible candidates for this PKC phosphorylation: Thr-938 in the M8/M9 loop located very close to the PKA site, and Ser-774, in the proximal part of the M5/M6 hairpin. Both sites are highly conserved in all known alpha-subunits, indicating a physiological role. A similar pattern of detergent-mediated phosphorylation by PKC was found in pig kidney Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit. Interestingly, the kidney-specific gamma-subunit was phosphorylated by PKC in the presence of detergent. The close proximity of the novel PKC sites to the membrane suggests that targeting proteins to tether PKC into the membrane phase is important in controlling the in vivo phosphorylation of this novel class of membrane-adjacent PKC sites. It is suggested that in purified preparations where functional targeting may be impaired detergents are needed to expose the sites.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and dopamine (DA) inhibit Na-K ATPase activity and sodium-phosphate cotransport in proximal tubular cells. We previously showed that PTH and DA inhibit phosphate transport in opossum kidney (OK) cells through different signaling pathways. Therefore, we hypothesized that PTH and DA also inhibit Na-K ATPase through divergent pathways. We measured PTH and DA inhibition of Na-K ATPase activity in the presence of inhibitors of signaling pathways. PTH and DA inhibited Na-K ATPase in a biphasic manner, the early inhibition through protein kinase C (PKC)- and phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2))-dependent pathways and the late inhibition through protein kinase A- and PLA(2)-dependent pathways. Inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation blocked early and late inhibition of Na-K ATPase by PTH but not by DA. Pertussis toxin blocked early and late inhibition by DA but not by PTH. Treatment with DA, but not PTH, resulted in an early downregulation of basolateral membrane expression of the alpha-subunit, whereas total cellular expression remained constant for both agonists. We conclude that PTH and DA regulate Na-K ATPase by different mechanisms through activation of divergent pathways.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that expression of both the alpha1- and alpha2-subunits of Na+-K+-ATPase is elevated after a 2- to 4-day cyclic stretch in aortic smooth muscle cells. In this study, we determined the effect of short-term (2-30 min) cyclic stretch on the activity of the Na pump and investigated possible mechanisms that may be involved in the action of stretch. Na pump activity was significantly increased above the baseline activity between 2 and 30 min of stretch. This effect of stretch was reversible within 1 h. Intracellular Na was also elevated at corresponding time points. Blocking the entry of Na with Gd and amiloride did not affect the stretch-induced increase in Na pump activity. Inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA) activity attenuated the effect of stretch on the Na pump. Furthermore, inhibition of polymerization of actin and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity prevented the action of stretch on Na pump activity. We conclude that the stimulation of the Na pump in response to cyclic stretch requires the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton as well as the activity of PI3K, which has a role in intracellular vesicular trafficking. PKA may also be involved in this effect of stretch on Na pump.

Abstract
The effect of the phorbol esther phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) on iodide uptake was studied in primary cultures of calf thyroid cells. PMA caused a dose- and time-dependent inhibition of thyrotropin (TSH), forskolin, and db-cAMP stimulation, indicating an effect distal to both TSH receptor and cAMP generation. No action was found on iodide efflux, indicating a selective inhibition of iodide uptake. This inhibition was observed even after 5 minutes of incubation, thus excluding a possible genomic action. Bisindolmaleimide (BS), a specific inhibitor of the protein kinase C (PKC) pathway, reverted the effect of PMA. A similar degree of inhibition of the Na+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and iodide uptake by PMA was found, thus suggesting a link between both parameters. These results indicate that the PKC pathway inhibits thyroid iodide uptake by an action distal to cAMP generation and probably because of a decrease in Na+/K+-ATPase activity.

Abstract
In this study we have evaluated the specificity of different PKC isozymes for the phosphorylation of the catalytic alpha1 subunit of rat renal Na+,K+-ATPase (alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase). Using in vitro phosphotransferase assays we found that classical PKCs (cPKCs) alpha, betaI, and gamma efficiently phosphorylate alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase. However, alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase was a poor substrate for the novel PKCs (nPKCs) delta and epsilon. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping revealed a similar pattern of phosphorylation by all cPKCs. The functional significance of this finding was evaluated by measuring Na+,K+-ATPase activity (assessed by 86Rb+ uptake) in COS-7 cells expressing the rat alpha1 Na+,K+-ATPase. 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a nonselective PKC activator, inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity in this system. On the other hand, 12-deoxyphorbol-13-phenylacetate (DPP), which preferentially activates nPKCepsilon, did not affect 86Rb+ uptake. These results indicate a differential pattern of phosphorylation and regulation of rat renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity by PKC isoforms and suggest an important role for cPKCs in the physiological regulation of the pump.

Abstract
Regulation of Na-K-ATPase by cAMP-dependent protein kinase occurs in a variety of tissues. Phosphorylation of the enzyme's catalytic subunit at a classical phosphorylation consensus motif has been observed with purified enzyme. Demonstration of phosphorylation at the same site in normal living cells or tissues has been more difficult, however, making it uncertain that the Na-K-ATPase is a direct physiological substrate of the kinase. Recently, the structure of the homologous sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA1a) has been determined at 2.6 A resolution (Toyoshima C, Nakasako M, Nomura H, and Ogawa H. Nature 405: 647-655, 2000.), and the Na-K- ATPase should have the same fold. Here, the Na-K-ATPase sequence has been aligned with the Ca-ATPase structure to examine the predicted disposition of the phosphorylation site. The location is close to the membrane and partially buried by adjacent loops, and the site is unlikely to be accessible to the kinase in this conformation. Conditions that may expose the site or further bury it are discussed to highlight the issues facing future research on regulation of Na-K-ATPase by cAMP-dependent pathways.

Abstract
Insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) are members of the family of the insulin family of growth factors, which activate similar cellular downstream pathways. In this study, we analyzed the effects of insulin and IGF-1 on the proliferation of murine skin keratinocytes in an attempt to determine whether these hormones trigger the same signaling pathways. Increasing doses of insulin and IGF-1 promote keratinocyte proliferation in an additive manner. We identified downstream pathways specifically involved in insulin signaling that are known to play a role in skin physiology; these include activation of the Na+/K+ pump and protein kinase C (PKC). Insulin, but not IGF-1, stimulated Na+/K+ pump activity. Furthermore, ouabain, a specific Na+/K+ pump inhibitor, abolished the proliferative effect of insulin but not that of IGF-1. Insulin and IGF-1 also differentially regulated PKC activation. Insulin, but not IGF-1, specifically activated and translocated the PKCB isoform to the membrane fraction. There was no effect on PKC isoforms alpha, eta, epsilon, and zeta, which are expressed in skin. PKC8 overexpression increased keratinocyte proliferation and Na+/K+ pump activity to a degree similar to that induced by insulin but had no affect on IGF-1-induced proliferation. Furthermore, a dominant negative form of PKCdelta abolished the effects of insulin on both proliferation and Na+/K+ pump activity but did not abrogate induction of keratinocyte proliferation induced by other growth factors. These data indicate that though insulin or IGF-1 stimulation induce keratinocyte proliferation, only insulin action is specifically mediated via PKC8 and involves activation of the Na+/K+ pump.

Abstract
Tubular reabsorption of filtered sodium is quantitatively the main contribution of kidneys to salt and water homeostasis. The transcellular reabsorption of sodium proceeds by a two-step mechanism: Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-energized basolateral active extrusion of sodium permits passive apical entry through various sodium transport systems. In the past 15 years, most of the renal sodium transport systems (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, channels, cotransporters, and exchangers) have been characterized at a molecular level. Coupled to the methods developed during the 1965-1985 decades to circumvent kidney heterogeneity and analyze sodium transport at the level of single nephron segments, cloning of the transporters allowed us to move our understanding of hormone regulation of sodium transport from a cellular to a molecular level. The main purpose of this review is to analyze how molecular events at the transporter level account for the physiological changes in tubular handling of sodium promoted by hormones. In recent years, it also became obvious that intracellular signaling pathways interacted with each other, leading to synergisms or antagonisms. A second aim of this review is therefore to analyze the integrated network of signaling pathways underlying hormone action. Given the central role of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in sodium reabsorption, the first part of this review focuses on its structural and functional properties, with a special mention of the specificity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase expressed in renal tubule. In a second part, the general mechanisms of hormone signaling are briefly introduced before a more detailed discussion of the nephron segment-specific expression of hormone receptors and signaling pathways. The three following parts integrate the molecular and physiological aspects of the hormonal regulation of sodium transport processes in three nephron segments: the proximal tubule, the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, and the collecting duct.

To test the hypothesis that there is cross-talk between the protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A (PKA) pathways in the regulation of the Na,K-ATPase, we measured its phosphorylation in mammalian cell cultures. Phosphorylation of the PKC site, Ser-18, appeared to be due to the activation of the alpha isoform of the kinase. In NRK-52E and L6 cells, this phosphorylation was reduced by prior activation of a cAMP-dependent signaling pathway with forskolin. In principle this would be consistent with direct interaction between the two phosphorylation sites, but further investigation suggested a more indirect mechanism. First, phosphorylation of Ser-938, the PKA site, could not be detected despite the presence of active PKA. Second, there was a major reduction in the phosphorylation of unrelated phosphoproteins as a consequence of elevation of cAMP, suggesting generalized reduction of kinase activity or activation of phosphatase activity. In NRK-52E and L6, phosphorylation of the Na, K-ATPase at Ser-18 paralleled this global change. In C6 cells, in contrast, there was no cAMP effect on Na,K-ATPase phosphorylation at Ser-18 and no global cAMP effect on other phosphoproteins. The cross-talk is evidently mediated by events occurring at the cellular level.

Abstract
Na(+)-K(+)- ATPase alpha-subunits in basolateral membrane vesicles (BLMVs) purified from rat parotid glands were (32)P-labeled within 5 s by incubation with [gamma-(32)P]ATP at 37 degrees C in the presence of cAMP, but no labeling occurred without cAMP. Phosphorylation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was associated with a decrease in its activity. This alpha-subunit phosphorylation disappeared when BLMVs were briefly incubated with cAMP and subsequent washing before the incubation with [gamma-(32)P]ATP, indicating that catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) associated to BLMVs via binding with its RII regulatory subunit anchored on the membrane. In the absence of cAMP, a PKA catalytic subunit readily reassociated with the membrane-bound RII subunit. HT-31 peptide inhibited the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase phosphorylation by membrane-bound endogenous PKA, indicating an involvement of A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP). AKAP-150 protein in BLMVs was shown by immunoblotting and an RII overlay assay and was coimmunoprecipitated by anti-RII antibody. These results show that Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase of rat parotid gland acinar cells is regulated in vivo by membrane-anchored PKA via AKAP rather than by free cytosolic PKA.

Abstract
The Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, or sodium pump, is the membrane-bound enzyme that maintains the Na(+) and K(+) gradients across the plasma membrane of animal cells. Because of its importance in many basic and specialized cellular functions, this enzyme must be able to adapt to changing cellular and physiological stimuli. This review presents an overview of the many mechanisms in place to regulate sodium pump activity in a tissue-specific manner. These mechanisms include regulation by substrates, membrane-associated components such as cytoskeletal elements and the gamma-subunit, and circulating endogenous inhibitors as well as a variety of hormones, including corticosteroids, peptide hormones, and catecholamines. In addition, the review considers the effects of a range of specific intracellular signaling pathways involved in the regulation of pump activity and subcellular distribution, with particular consideration given to the effects of protein kinases and phosphatases.

Abstract
Endocytosis of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase molecules in response to G protein-coupled receptor stimulation requires activation of class I(A) phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K-I(A)) in a protein kinase C-dependent manner. In this paper, we report that PI3K-I(A), through its p85alpha subunit-SH3 domain, binds to a proline-rich region in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase catalytic alpha subunit. This interaction is enhanced by protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation of a serine residue that flanks the proline-rich motif in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha subunit and results in increased PI3K-I(A) activity, an effect necessary for adaptor protein 2 binding and clathrin recruitment. Thus, Ser-phosphorylation of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase catalytic subunit serves as an anchor signal for regulating the location of PI3K-I(A) and its activation during Na(+),K(+)-ATPase endocytosis in response to G protein-coupled receptor signals.

Abstract
The alpha1 subunit of Na,K-ATPase is phosphorylated at Ser-16 by phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase(s) C (PKC). The role of Ser-16 phosphorylation was analyzed in COS-7 cells stably expressing wild-type or mutant (T15A/S16A and S16D-E) ouabain-resistant Bufo alpha1 subunits. In cells incubated at 37 degrees C, phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu) inhibited the transport activity and decreased the cell surface expression of wild-type and mutant Na,K-pumps equally ( approximately 20-30%). This effect of PDBu was mimicked by arachidonic acid and was dependent on PKC, phospholipase A(2), and cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase. In contrast, incubation of cells at 18 degrees C suppressed the down-regulation of Na,K-pumps and revealed a phosphorylation-dependent stimulation of the transport activity of Na,K-ATPase. Na,K-ATPase from cells expressing alpha1-mutants mimicking Ser-16 phosphorylation (S16D or S16E) exhibited an increase in the apparent Na affinity. This finding was confirmed by the PDBu-induced increase in Na sensitivity of the activity of Na,K-ATPase measured in permeabilized nontransfected COS-7 cells. These results illustrate the complexity of the regulation of Na,K-ATPase alpha1 isozymes by phorbol ester-sensitive PKCs and reveal 1) a phosphorylation-independent decrease in cell surface expression and 2) a phosphorylation-dependent stimulation of the transport activity attributable to an increase in the apparent Na affinity.

Abstract
Our previous studies showed that dopamine inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in acutely dissociated neurons from striatum. In the present study, we have found that in this preparation, dopamine inhibited significantly (by approximately 25%) the activity of the alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms, but not the alpha1 isoform, of Na+,K+-ATPase. Dopamine, via D1 receptors, activates cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in striatal neurons. Dopamine is also known to activate the calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) in a number of different cell types. The PKC activator phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate reduced the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms (by approximately 30%) as well as the alpha1 isoform (by approximately 15%). However, dopamine-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity was unaffected by calphostin C, a PKC inhibitor. Dopamine did not affect the phosphorylation of Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms at the PKA-dependent phosphorylation site. Phorbol ester treatment did not alter the phosphorylation of alpha2 or alpha3 isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase in neostriatal neurons but did increase the phosphorylation of the alpha1 isoform. Thus, in rat neostriatal neurons, treatment with either dopamine or PKC activators results in inhibition of the activity of specific (alpha3 and/or alpha2) isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase, but this is not apparently mediated through direct phosphorylation of the enzyme. In addition, PKC is unlikely to mediate inhibition of rat Na+,K+-ATPase activity by dopamine in neostriatal neurons.

Abstract
Treatment of rabbits with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors increases the apparent affinity of the Na+-K+ pump for Na+. To explore the mechanism, we voltage clamped myocytes from control rabbits and rabbits treated with captopril with patch pipettes containing 10 mM Na+. When pipette solutions were K+ free, pump current (Ip) for myocytes from captopril-treated rabbits was nearly identical to that for myocytes from controls. However, treatment caused a significant increase in Ip measured with pipettes containing K+. A similar difference was observed when myocytes from rabbits treated with the ANG II receptor antagonist losartan and myocytes from controls were compared. Treatment-induced differences in Ip were eliminated by in vitro exposure to ANG II or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or inclusion of the protein kinase C fragment composed of amino acids 530-558 in pipette solutions. Treatment with captopril had no effect on the voltage dependence of Ip. We conclude that ANG II regulates the pump's selectivity for intracellular Na+ at sites near the cytoplasmic surface. Protein kinase C is implicated in the messenger cascade.

Abstract
1. It is well established that the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA) is regulated by protein kinases A (PKA) and C (PKC), but results on their effects have been conflicting. The aim of this study was to examine if this is ascribed to the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). 2. Rat renal NKA was stably expressed in COS cells (green monkey kidney cells). Increases in [Ca2+]i were achieved with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 and verified by direct measurements of [Ca2+]i using fura-2 AM as an indicator. The activity of NKA was measured as ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake and the state of phosphorylation of NKA was monitored with two site-directed phosphorylation state-specific antibodies. 3. Activation of PKA with forskolin decreased NKA activity by 45.5 +/- 8.9 % at low [Ca2+]i (120 nM) and increased it by 40.5 +/- 6.4 % at high [Ca2+]i (420 nM). The change in NKA activity by forskolin correlated with the level of increase in [Ca2+]i. 4. The effect of 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a specific PKC activator, on the activity of NKA was also Ca2+ dependent, being inhibitory when [Ca2+]i was low (29.3 +/- 3.6 % decrease at 120 nM Ca2+) and stimulatory when [Ca2+]i was high (36.6 +/- 10.1 % increase at 420 nM Ca2+). 5. The alpha subunit of NKA was phosphorylated under both low and high [Ca2+]i conditions upon PKA or PKC activation. PKA phosphorylates Ser943. PKC phosphorylates Ser23. 6. To see if the observed effects on NKA activity are secondary to changes in Na+ entry, we measured NKA hydrolytic activity using permeabilized membranes isolated from cells under controlled Na+ conditions. A decreased activity at low [Ca2+]i and no change in activity at high [Ca2+]i were observed following forskolin or OAG treatment. 7. Purified NKA from rat renal cortex was phosphorylated and inhibited by PKC. This phosphorylation-associated inhibition of NKA was neither affected by Ca2+ nor by calmodulin, tested alone or together. 8. We conclude that effect of PKA/PKC on NKA activity is dependent on [Ca2+]i. This Ca2+ dependence may provide an explanation for the diversity of responses of NKA to activation of either PKA or PKC.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ pump current (Ip) in cardiac myocytes is stimulated by cell swelling induced by exposure to hyposmolar solutions. However, the underlying mechanism has not been examined. Because cell swelling activates stretch-sensitive ion channels and intracellular messenger pathways, we examined their role in mediating Ip stimulation during exposure of rabbit ventricular myocytes to a hyposmolar solution. Ip was measured by the whole cell patch-clamp technique. Swelling-induced pump stimulation altered the voltage dependence of Ip. Pump stimulation persisted in the absence of extracellular Na+ and under conditions designed to minimize changes in intracellular Ca2+, excluding an indirect influence on Ip mediated via fluxes through stretch-activated channels. Pump stimulation was protein kinase C independent. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor tyrphostin A25, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY-294002, and the protein phosphatase-1 and -2A inhibitor okadaic acid abolished Ip stimulation. Our findings suggest that swelling-induced pump stimulation involves the activation of tyrosine kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and a serine/threonine protein phosphatase. Activation of this messenger cascade may cause activation by the dephosphorylation of pump units.
