Abstract
Most of the transepithelial transport of sodium in proximal tubules occurs through the coordinated action of the apical sodium/proton exchanger and the basolateral Na-K-ATPase. Hormones that regulate proximal tubule sodium excretion regulate the activities of these proteins. We have previously demonstrated that the level of intracellular sodium concentration modulates the regulation of Na-K-ATPase activity by angiotensin II and dopamine. An increase of a few millimolars in intracellular sodium concentration leads to increased Na-K-ATPase activity without a statistically significant increase in the number of plasma membrane Na-K-ATPase molecules, as determined by cell surface protein biotinylation. Using total internal reflection fluorescence, we detected an increased number of Na-K-ATPase molecules in cytosolic compartments adjacent to the plasma membrane, suggesting that the increased intracellular sodium concentration induces a movement of Na-K-ATPase molecules toward the plasma membrane. While intracellular compartments containing Na-K-ATPase molecules are very close to the plasma membrane, compartments containing type 1 dopamine receptors (D1Rs) are distributed in different parts of the cell cytosol. Fluorescence determinations indicate that an increased intracellular sodium concentration induces the increased colocalization of dopamine receptors with Na-K-ATPase molecules in the region of the plasma membrane. We propose that under in vivo conditions, in response to a sodium load in the lumen of proximal tubules, an increased level of intracellular sodium in epithelial cells is an early event that triggers the cellular response that leads to dopamine inhibition of proximal tubule sodium reabsorption.

Abstract
Motion of integral membrane proteins to the plasma membrane in response to G-protein-coupled receptor signals requires selective cargo recognition motifs that bind adaptor protein 1 and clathrin. Angiotensin II, through the activation of AT1 receptors, promotes the recruitment to the plasma membrane of Na,K-ATPase molecules from intracellular compartments. We present evidence to demonstrate that a tyrosine-based sequence (IVVY-255) present within the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit is involved in the binding of adaptor protein 1. Mutation of Tyr-255 to a phenylalanine residue in the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit greatly reduces the angiotensin II-dependent activation of Na,K-ATPase, recruitment of Na,K-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane, and association of adaptor protein 1 with Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit molecules. To determine protein-protein interaction, we used fluorescence resonance energy transfer between fluorophores attached to the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit and adaptor protein 1. Although angiotensin II activation of AT1 receptors induces a significant increase in the level of fluorescence resonance energy transfer between the two molecules, this effect was blunted in cells expressing the Tyr-255 mutant. Thus, results from different methods and techniques suggest that the Tyr-255-based sequence within the NKA alpha1-subunit is the site of adaptor protein 1 binding in response to the G-protein-coupled receptor signals produced by angiotensin II binding to AT1 receptors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Dopamine is a major regulator of sodium reabsorption in proximal tubule epithelia. By binding to D1-receptors, dopamine induces endocytosis of plasma membrane Na,K-ATPase, resulting in a reduced capacity of the cells to transport sodium, thus contributing to natriuresis. We have previously demonstrated several aspects of the molecular mechanism by which dopamine induces Na,K-ATPase endocytosis; however, the location of intracellular compartments containing Na,K-ATPase molecules has not been identified. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH In this study, we used different approaches to determine the localization of Na,K-ATPase-containing intracellular compartments. By expression of fluorescent-tagged Na,K-ATPase molecules in opossum kidney cells, a cell culture model of proximal tubule epithelia, we used fluorescence microscopy to determine cellular distribution of the fluorescent molecules and the effects of dopamine on this distribution. By labelling cell surface Na,K-ATPase molecules from the cell exterior with either biotin or an epitope-tagged antibody, we determined the localization of the tagged Na,K-ATPase molecules after endocytosis induced by dopamine. KEY RESULTS In cells expressing fluorescent-tagged Na,K-ATPase molecules, there were intracellular compartments containing Na,K-ATPase molecules. These compartments were in very close proximity to the plasma membrane. Upon treatment of the cells with dopamine, the fluorescence labelling of these compartments was increased. The labelling of these compartments was also observed when the endocytosis of biotin- or antibody-tagged plasma membrane Na,K-ATPase molecules was induced by dopamine. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The intracellular compartments containing Na,K-ATPase molecules are located just underneath the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The present study evaluated the possible role of the renal dopaminergic system in the sodium retention of HgCl2-induced nephrotic syndrome. The time courses of urinary excretion of sodium, protein, dopamine and the precursor l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa) were evaluated in HgCl2-treated and control rats up to day 21. The renal aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) activity, the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of renal dopamine, was evaluated during negligible proteinuria accompanied with enhanced sodium retention (day 7), increased proteinuria accompanied with greatest sodium retention (day 14) as well as during increased proteinuria accompanied with negative sodium balance (day 21). Also, the influence of volume expansion (VE, 5% bw) and the effects of the D1-like agonist fenoldopam (10 microg kg bw(-1) min(-1)) on natriuresis and on proximal tubular Na+,K+-ATPase activity were examined on day 14. The daily urinary dopamine output and urinary dopamine/L-Dopa ratios were reduced in HgCl2-treated rats from day 2 and beyond. This was accompanied by a marked decrease in renal AADC throughout the study. During VE, the fenoldopam-induced inhibition of proximal tubular Na+,K+-ATPase activity was similar between HgCl2-treated and control rats. However, the urinary sodium excretion during fenoldopam infusion was markedly increased by 60% to 120% in control rats but was not altered in HgCl2-treated rats. It is concluded that HgCl2 nephrosis is associated with a blunted renal dopaminergic system activity. However, the lack of renal dopamine in HgCl2 nephrosis does not appear to be related with the overall renal sodium retention in a state of proteinuria.

Abstract
Renal sodium homeostasis is a major determinant of BP and is regulated by several natriuretic and antinatriuretic hormones. These hormones, acting through intracellular secondary messengers, either activate or inhibit proximal tubule Na,K-ATPase. It was shown previously that phorbol esters and angiotensin II and serotonin induce the phosphorylation of both Ser-11 and Ser-18 of the Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit. This results in the recruitment of Na,K-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane and an increased capacity to transport sodium ions. Treatment of the same cells with dopamine leads to phosphorylation of the Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit Ser-18. The subsequent internalization of Na,K-ATPase molecules results in a reduced capacity to transport sodium ions. These effects are observed in cells that express the rat-type Na,K-ATPase. However, the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit of several species, such as human, pig, and mouse, does not have a Ser-18 in their N-terminal region. Therefore, the possibility exists that, in those species, the Na,K-ATPase is not regulated by the hormones that regulate natriuresis. This study presents evidence that in cells that express the human-type Na,K-ATPase, dopamine inhibits and phorbol esters activate the Na,K-ATPase-mediated transport. These opposite effects are mediated by the phosphorylation of the same amino acid residue, Ser-11 of Na,K-ATPase alpha1, and the presence of alpha1 Ser-18 is not essential for the hormonal regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in LLCPK1 cells. It was observed that, whereas the regulatory stimulation of Na,K-ATPase is mediated by protein kinase Cbeta, the regulatory inhibition is mediated by protein kinase Czeta. This is similar to what was demonstrated previously in cells that express the rat-type Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A primary tubular sodium handling abnormality has been implicated in the edema formation of nephrotic syndrome. Dopamine synthesized by renal proximal tubules behaves as an endogenous natriuretic hormone by activating D(1)-like receptors as a paracrine/autocrine substance. METHODS We examined the time courses of the urinary excretion of sodium, protein and dopamine in puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-treated and control rats. The rats were sacrificed during greatest sodium retention (day 7) as well as during negative sodium balance (day 14) for the evaluation of renal aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) activity, the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of renal dopamine. Also, the influence of volume expansion (VE) and the effects of the D(1)-like agonist fenoldopam (10 microg/kg bw/min) on natriuresis and on proximal tubular Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity were examined on day 7. RESULTS The daily urinary excretion of dopamine was decreased in PAN-treated rats, from day 5 and beyond. This was accompanied by a marked decrease in the renal AADC activity, on days 7 and 14. During VE, the fenoldopam-induced decrease in proximal tubular Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was more pronounced in PAN-treated rats than in controls. However, the urinary sodium excretion during fenoldopam infusion was markedly increased in control rats but was not altered in PAN-treated animals. CONCLUSION PAN nephrosis is associated with a blunted renal dopaminergic system activity which may contribute to enhance the proximal tubular Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. However, the lack of renal dopamine appears not to be related with the overall renal sodium retention in a state of proteinuria.

Abstract
In the current report we review the results that lay grounds for the model of intracellular sodium-mediated dopamine-induced endocytosis of Na,K-ATPase. Under conditions of a high salt diet, dopamine activates PKCzeta, which phosphorylates NKA alpha1 Ser-18. The phosphorylation produces a conformational change of alpha1 NH2-terminus, which through interaction with other domains of alpha1 exposes PI3K- and AP-2-binding domains. PI3K bound to the NKA alpha1 induces the recruitment and activation of other proteins involved in endocytosis, and PI3K-generated 3-phosphoinositides affect the local cytoskeleton and modify the biophysical conditions of the membrane for development of clathrin-coated pits. Plasma membrane phosphorylated NKA is internalized to specialized intracellular compartments where the NKA will be dephosphorylated. The NKA internalization results in a reduced Na+ transport by proximal tubule epithelial cells.

Abstract
The balance and cross-talk between natruretic and antinatruretic hormone receptors plays a critical role in the regulation of renal Na+ homeostasis, which is a major determinant of blood pressure. Dopamine and angiotensin II have antagonistic effects on renal Na+ and water excretion, which involves regulation of the Na+,K+-ATPase activity. Herein we demonstrate that angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulation of AT1 receptors in proximal tubule cells induces the recruitment of Na+,K+-ATPase molecules to the plasmalemma, in a process mediated by protein kinase Cbeta and interaction of the Na+,K+-ATPase with adaptor protein 1. Ang II stimulation led to phosphorylation of the alpha subunit Ser-11 and Ser-18 residues, and substitution of these amino acids with alanine residues completely abolished the Ang II-induced stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase-mediated Rb+ transport. Thus, for Ang II-dependent stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase activity, phosphorylation of these serine residues is essential and may constitute a triggering signal for recruitment of Na+,K+-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane. When cells were treated simultaneously with saturating concentrations of dopamine and Ang II, either activation or inhibition of the Na+,K+-ATPase activity was produced dependent on the intracellular Na+ concentration, which was varied in a very narrow physiological range (9-19 mm). A small increase in intracellular Na+ concentrations induces the recruitment of D1 receptors to the plasma membrane and a reduction in plasma membrane AT1 receptors. Thus, one or more proteins may act as an intracellular Na+ concentration sensor and play a major regulatory role on the effect of hormones that regulate proximal tubule Na+ reabsorption.

Abstract
Although it is known that substrate specificities differ with species and within each species with the tissues, in the rat heart no natural substrate was found for MAO-B. beta-phenylethylamine (beta-PEA) has always been considered the "endogenous" substrate of MAO B. We thought worthwide to evaluate the effect of Ro 41-1049 and lazabemide, both members of a class of highly selective, mechanism-based and reversible inhibitors for MAO-A and MAO B, respectively on the metabolization of beta-PEA by the rat heart. Also the lack of molecular data on rat heart MAOs, prompted us to better characterize rat heart MAOs, both kinetically and using molecular biology techniques. K(m) values for deamination of beta-PEA in the rat heart were 13-fold those in the kidney, by contrast, K(m) values for deamination of 5-HT were quite similar in both tissues. Unexpectedly, the selective MAO-A inhibitor Ro 41-1049 was by far the most potent inhibitor of beta-PEA (20 microM) deamination in the rat heart, while clorgyline, another MAO A inhibitor, and lazabemide, a MAO B inhibitor, had intermediate efficacy; selegiline was found unable to inhibit deamination of beta-PEA. In the rat renal cortex lazabemide and selegiline both inhibited beta-PEA deamination. The reduction of beta-PEA concentration to just 200 nM, the use of heart membranes instead of tissue homogenates or the use of heart membranes pre-treated with 1% digitonine failed to change this pattern of inhibition. Semicarbazide was found not to alter deamination of beta-PEA. Western blot showed the presence of both isoforms (55 kd and 61 kd) in the renal cortex. In the heart there was a predominance of the A form, the B form being undetected. The RT-PCR products for both MAO-A and MAO-B, were found to have the expected sizes. In conclusion, we found mRNA for MAO-B but were unable to detect the protein itself or its activity when using beta-PEA as the substrate.

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

Abstract
The present study describes characteristic features of two clonal subpopulations of opossum kidney (OK) cells (OK(LC) and OK(HC)) that are functionally different but morphologically identical. The most impressive differences between OK(HC) and OK(LC) cells are the overexpression of Na+-K+-ATPase and type 3 Na+/H+ exchanger by the former, accompanied by an increased Na+-K+-ATPase activity (57.6 +/- 5.6 vs. 30.0 +/- 0.1 nmol P(i). mg protein(-1). min(-1)); the increased ability to translocate Na+ from the apical to the basolateral surface; and the increased Na+-dependent pH(i) recovery (0.254 +/- 0.016 vs. 0.094 +/- 0.011 pH units/s). Vmax values (in pH units/s) for Na+-dependent pHi recovery in OK(HC) cells (0.00521 +/- 0.0004) were twice (P < 0.05) those in OK(LC) (0.00202 +/- 0.0001), with similar Km values (in mM) for Na+ (OK(LC), 21.0 +/- 5.5; OK(HC), 14.0 +/- 5.6). In addition, we measured the activities of transporters (organic ions, alpha-methyl-D-glucoside, L-type amino acids, and Na+ and enzymes (adenylyl cyclase, aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase, and catechol-O-methyltransferase). The cells were also characterized morphologically by optical and scanning electron microscopy and karyotyped. It is suggested that OK(LC) and OK(HC) cells constitute an interesting cell model for the study of renal epithelial physiology and pathophysiology, namely, hypertension.

Abstract
We studied the molecular events set into motion by stimulation of D(1)-like receptors downstream of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, while measuring apical-to-basal ouabain-sensitive, amphotericin B-induced increases in short-circuit current in opossum kidney (OK) cells. The D(1)-like receptor agonist SKF-38393 decreased Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity (IC(50), 130 nM). This effect was prevented by the D(1)-like receptor antagonist SKF-83566, overnight cholera toxin treatment, the protein kinase A (PKA) antagonist H-89, or the PKC antagonist chelerythrine, but not the mitogen-activated PK inhibitor PD-098059 or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002. Dibutyryl cAMP (DBcAMP) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) both effectively reduced Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. PKA downregulation abolished the inhibitory effects of SKF-38393 and DBcAMP but not those of PDBu. PKC downregulation abolished inhibition by PDBu, SKF-38393, and DBcAMP. The phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U-73122 prevented inhibition by SKF-38393 and DBcAMP. However, DBcAMP increased PLC activity. Although OK cells express both G(s)alpha and G(q/11)alpha proteins, D(1)-like receptors are coupled to G(s)alpha proteins only, as evidenced by studies in cells treated overnight with specific antibodies raised against G(s)alpha and G(q/11)alpha proteins. We conclude that PLC and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase are effector proteins for PKA and PKC, respectively, after stimulation of D(1)-like receptors coupled to G(s)alpha proteins, in a sequence of events that begins with adenylyl cyclase-PKA system activation followed by PLC-PKC system activation.

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

Abstract
Opossum kidney (OK) cells, which have the ability to synthesise dopamine and 5-HT, have been used as an in vitro model for the study of renal actions of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). The present study reports on the uptake of their immediate precursors L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) and L-5-hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP). IC50 values for L-5-HTP (1569 microM) obtained in the presence of a nearly saturating (250 microM) concentration of L-DOPA were 6-fold those obtained when using non-saturating (0.25 and 25 microM) concentrations of L-DOPA (251 and 266). Vmax values (in nmol mg protein-1 6 min-1) for L-DOPA uptake are identical in the absence (13.6) and the presence of 250 microM L-5-HTP (13.3), but K(m) values (microM) are significantly greater (P < 0.05) when L-DOPA uptake was studied in the presence of L-5-HTP (90 vs 1.79). IC50 values for L-DOPA (679 microM) obtained in the presence of a near saturating (250 microM) concentration of L-5-HTP were almost 3-fold those obtained when non-saturating (0.25 and 25 microM) concentrations of L-5-HTP were used (254 and 220). Vmax values (in nmol mg protein-1 6 min-1) for L-5-HTP uptake are identical in the absence (11.2) and the presence of 250 microM L-DOPA (11.7), but K(m) values (microM) are significantly greater (P < 0.05) when L-5-HTP uptake was studied in the presence of L-DOPA (103 vs 220). It is concluded that L-DOPA and L-5-HTP share the same transporter(s) and each compound exerts a competitive type of inhibition upon the other.

Abstract
In the presence of benserazide (50 microM), L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) was rapidly accumulated in both LLC-PK1 and OK cells; equilibrium was attained at 30 min of incubation. For these LLC-PK1 and OK cells, the analysis revealed a rate constant of inward transport (k(in) in pmol/mg protein/min) of 3.6 +/- 0.4 and 18.1 +/- 0.3 and a rate constant of outward transport (k(out) in pmol/mg protein/min) of 1.0 +/- 0.1 and 5.2 +/- 0.1, respectively. Nonlinear analysis of the saturation curves for LLC-PK1 and OK cells revealed a Km (in microM) of 86 +/- 12 and 14 +/- 4, respectively. The cellular accumulation of the substrate was temperature-dependent and stereoselective. Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AAAD) activity was determined in cell homogenates; nonlinear analysis of the saturation curves revealed, for LLC-PK1 and OK cells, a Km (in microM) of 1866 +/- 107 and 845 +/- 153 and a Vmax (in nmol/mg protein/15 min) of 4.4 +/- 0.1 and 0.9 +/- 0.1, respectively. In the absence of benserazide, only a limited amount of the L-DOPA taken up was decarboxylated to dopamine in cell monolayers; the Km value (in microM) for decarboxylation of intracellular L-DOPA in LLC-PK1 and OK cells was 61 +/- 14 and 108 +/- 36, respectively. A low amount of newly formed dopamine was found to escape to the apical bathing fluid. This outward transfer of newly formed dopamine was a nonsaturable process up to 300 microM intracellular dopamine. In conclusion, the data presented here show that OK cells are endowed with a more efficient L-DOPA uptake system than LLC-PK1 cells, but the latter are endowed with a significantly higher AAAD activity than OK cells. In both cell lines, intracellular L-DOPA is rapidly converted to dopamine, some of which diffuses out of the cell.

Abstract
The present study aimed to determine the kinetics of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) uptake in Opossum kidney (OK) cells and to define the type of inhibition produced by L-5-hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP), cyanine 863 and 3,3'-diethyloxacarbocyanine (3,3'-DOC). Non-linear analysis of the saturation curves revealed for L-DOPA a Km (in microM) of 129 (114, 145) and a Vmax (in nmol/mg protein per 6 min) of 30.0 +/- 0.4 IC50 values for L-5-HTP (1454 microM) obtained in the presence of a nearly saturating (250 microM) concentration of L-DOPA were almost 4-fold those obtained when non-saturating (25 microM) concentrations of L-DOPA were used (330). IC50 values for cyanine 863 and 3,3'-DOC (638 and 353 microM) obtained in the presence of a nearly saturating (250 microM) concentration of L-DOPA were similar to those obtained when non-saturating (25 microM) concentrations of L-DOPA were used (654 and 339 microM). Vmax values (in nmol/mg protein per 6 min) for L-DOPA uptake were identical in the absence (36.4 +/- 0.7) and the presence of L-5-HTP (39.2 +/- 1.3), but Km values (microM) were significantly greater (P < 0.05) when L-DOPA uptake was studied in the presence of L-5-HTP (121 (100, 142) versus 318 (237, 399)). In contrast, the effect of cyanine 863 and 3,3'-DOC was to cause a significant reduction in Vmax values without significant changes in Km values. It is concluded that L-5-HTP exerts a competitive type of inhibition of L-DOPA uptake in cultured OK cells, whereas both cyanine 863, an organic cation transport inhibitor and 3,3'-DOC behave as non-competitive inhibitors.
