Peter MCS, Gayathry R. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor L-NAME activates inducible NOS/NO system and drives multidimensional regulation of Na + /K + -ATPase in ionocyte epithelia of immersion-stressed air-breathing fish (Anabas testudineus Bloch). JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL ZOOLOGY PART 2021; 335:396-416. [PMID: 33734617 DOI: 10.1002/jez.2454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2020] [Revised: 02/15/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2021] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in Na+ homeostatic control in water-breathing fishes. It is, however, uncertain whether air-breathing fish relies on NO to coordinate Na+ /K+ -ATPase (NKA)-driven Na+ transport during acute hypoxemia. We, thus, examined the action of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor, L-NAME on NO availability, inducible NOS (iNOS) protein abundance and the regulatory dynamics of NKA in osmoregulatory epithelia of Anabas testudineus kept at induced hypoxemia. As expected in nonstressed fish, in vivo L-NAME (100 ng g-1 ) challenge for 30 min declined NO production in serum (40%) and osmoregulatory tissues (average 51.6%). Surprisingly, the magnitude of such reduction was less in hypoxemic fish after L-NAME challenge due to the net gain of NO (average 23.7%) in these tissues. Concurrently, higher iNOS protein abundance was found in branchial and intestinal epithelia of these hypoxemic fish. In nonstressed fish, L-NAME treatment inhibited the NKA activity in branchial and intestinal epithelia while stimulating its activity in renal epithelia. Interestingly in hypoxemic fish, L-NAME challenge restored the hypoxemia-inhibited NKA activity in branchial and renal epithelia. Similar recovery response was evident in the NKAα protein abundance in immunoblots and immunofluorescence images of branchial epithelia of these fish. Analysis of Nkaα1 isoform transcript abundance (Nkaα1a, α1b, α1c) also showed spatial and preferential regulation of Nkaα1 isoform switching. Collectively, the data indicate that L-NAME challenge activates iNOS/NO system in the branchial ionocyte epithelia of hypoxemia-stressed Anabas and demands multidimensional regulation of NKA to restore the Na+ transport rate probably to defend against acute hypoxemia.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes triggers protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent NADPH oxidase activation in the renal medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL), resulting in accelerated superoxide production. As acute exposure to superoxide stimulates NaCl transport by the mTAL, we hypothesized that diabetes increases mTAL Na(+) transport through PKC-dependent and NADPH oxidase-dependent mechanisms. An O(2)-sensitive fluoroprobe was used to measure O(2) consumption by mTALs from rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes and sham rats. In sham mTALs, total O(2) consumption was evident as a 0.34±0.03 U change in normalized relative fluorescence (ΔNRF)/min per mg protein. Ouabain (2 mmol/L) reduced O(2) consumption by 69±4% and 500 μmol/L furosemide reduced O(2) consumption by 58±8%. Total O(2) consumption was accelerated in mTAL from diabetic rats (0.74±0.07 ΔNRF/min/mg protein; P<0.05 versus sham), reflecting increases in ouabain- and furosemide-sensitive O(2) consumption. NADPH oxidase inhibition (100 μmol/L apocynin) reduced furosemide-sensitive O(2) consumption by mTAL from diabetic rats to values not different from sham. The PKC inhibitor calphostin C (1 μmol/L) or the PKCα/β inhibitor Gö6976 (1 μmol/L) decreased furosemide-sensitive O(2) consumption in both groups, achieving values that did not differ between sham and diabetic. PKCβ inhibition had no effect in either group. Similar inhibitory patterns were evident with regard to ouabain-sensitive O(2) consumption. We conclude that NADPH oxidase and PKC (primarily PKCα) contribute to an increase in O(2) consumption by the mTAL during type 1 diabetes through effects on the ouabain-sensitive Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and furosemide-sensitive Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter that are primarily responsible for active transport Na(+) reabsorption by this nephron segment.

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.

Role of protein kinase C in regulation of Na+- and K +-dependent ATPase activity and pump function in corneal endothelial cells. Jpn J Ophthalmol 2009; 53:235-42.

Abstract
PURPOSE Na+- and K+-dependent ATPase (Na,K-ATPase) plays an important role in the pump function of the corneal endothelium. We investigated the possible role of protein kinase C (PKC) in regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity and pump function in corneal endothelial cells. METHODS Confluent monolayers of mouse corneal endothelial cells were exposed to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) to induce activation of PKC. ATPase activity of the cells was evaluated by using ammonium molybdate in spectrophotometric measurement of phosphate released from ATP, 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 a 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. RESULTS PDBu (10(-7) M) increased the Na,K-ATPase activity and pump function of the cultured cells. These effects of PDBu were potentiated by the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin and the cytochrome P(450) inhibitor resorufin and were blocked by okadaic acid, an inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that PKC bidirectionally regulates Na,K-ATPase activity in mouse corneal endothelial cells: it inhibits Na,K-ATPase activity in a cyclooxygenase- and cytochrome P(450)-dependent manner, whereas it stimulates such activity by activating protein phosphatases 1 or 2A.

Abstract
Proteinase-activated receptors 2 (PAR2) are expressed in kidney, but their function is mostly unknown. Since PAR2 control ion transport in several epithelia, we searched for an effect on sodium transport in the cortical thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, a nephron segment that avidly reabsorbs NaCl, and for its signaling. Activation of PAR2, by either trypsin or a specific agonist peptide, increased the maximal activity of Na,K-ATPase, its apparent affinity for sodium, the sodium permeability of the paracellular pathway, and the lumen-positive transepithelial voltage, featuring increased NaCl reabsorption. PAR2 activation induced calcium signaling and phosphorylation of ERK1,2. PAR2-induced stimulation of Na,K-ATPase Vmax was fully prevented by inhibition of phospholipase C, of changes in intracellular concentration of calcium, of classical protein kinases C, and of ERK1,2 phosphorylation. PAR2-induced increase in paracellular sodium permeability was mediated by the same signaling cascade. In contrast, increase in the apparent affinity of Na,K-ATPase for sodium, although dependent on phospholipase C, was independent of calcium signaling, was insensitive to inhibitors of classical protein kinases C and of ERK1,2 phosphorylation, but was fully prevented by the nonspecific protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine, as was the increase in transepithelial voltage. In conclusion, PAR2 increases sodium reabsorption in rat thick ascending limb of Henle's loop along both the transcellular and the paracellular pathway. PAR2 effects are mediated in part by a phospholipase C/protein kinase C/ERK1,2 cascade, which increases Na,K-ATPase maximal activity and the paracellular sodium permeability, and by a different phospholipase C-dependent, staurosporine-sensitive cascade that controls the sodium affinity of Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte sodium accumulation after burn injury precedes the development of myocardial contractile dysfunction. The present study examined the effects of burn injury on Na-K-ATPase activity in adult rat hearts after major burn injury and explored the hypothesis that burn-related changes in myocardial Na-K-ATPase activity are PKC dependent. A third-degree burn injury (or sham burn) was given over 40% total body surface area, and rats received lactated Ringer solution (4 ml·kg−1·% burn−1). Subgroups of rats were killed 2, 4, or 24 h after burn ( n = 6 rats/time period), hearts were homogenized, and Na-K-ATPase activity was determined from ouabain-sensitive phosphate generation from ATP by cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles. Additional groups of rats were studied at several times after burn to determine the time course of myocyte sodium loading and the time course of myocardial dysfunction. Additional groups of sham burn-injured and burn-injured rats were given calphostin, an inhibitor of PKC, and Na-K-ATPase activity, cell Na+, and myocardial function were measured. Burn injury caused a progressive rise in cardiomyocyte Na+, and myocardial Na-K-ATPase activity progressively decreased after burn, while PKC activity progressively rose. Administration of calphostin to inhibit PKC activity prevented both the burn-related decrease in myocardial Na-K-ATPase and the rise in intracellular Na+and improved postburn myocardial contractile performance. We conclude that burn-related inhibition of Na-K-ATPase likely contributes to the cardiomyocyte accumulation of intracellular Na+. Since intracellular Na+is one determinant of electrical-mechanical recovery after insults such as burn injury, burn-related inhibition of Na-K-ATPase may be critical in postburn recovery of myocardial contractile function.

Abstract
Abnormal production of superoxide (O(2)(-)) contributes to hypertension, in part because of its effects on the kidney. The thick ascending limb absorbs 20% to 30% of the filtered load of NaCl. O(2)(-) stimulates NaCl absorption by the thick ascending limb by enhancing Na(+)/K(+)/2Cl(-) cotransporter activity; however, the signaling mechanism is unknown. We hypothesized that O(2)(-) stimulates NaCl absorption by activating protein kinase C (PKC). To test this, we measured the effect of O(2)(-) on: (1) Cl(-) absorption in the presence and absence of PKC inhibitors, (2) total PKC activity, and (3) activation of specific PKC isoforms. Isolated perfused medullary thick ascending limbs were exposed to O(2)(-) generated by xanthine oxidase (1 mU/mL) and hypoxanthine (0.5 mmol/L). O(2)(-) increased Cl(-) absorption by 42% (from 76.2+/-3.6 to 108.2+/-11.9 pmol/min per millimeter; n=5; P<0.05). After treatment with the general PKC inhibitor staurosporine (10 nmol/L), O(2)(-) did not stimulate Cl(-) absorption (Delta-5.7+/-8.6%; n=6). In thick ascending limb suspensions, O(2)(-) increased total PKC activity by 33% (from 66+/-11 to 88+/-12 mU/mg protein; n=5; P<0.05) and increased PKC-alpha and PKC-delta activity by 1.75- and 0.37-fold, respectively. The PKC-alpha/beta-selective inhibitor Gö976 (100 nmol/L) blocked the ability of O(2)(-) to stimulate Cl(-) absorption by isolated perfused medullary thick ascending limbs (Delta4.5+/-15.0%; n=5). The role of PKC-delta could not be studied because of cell necrosis caused by the selective inhibitor rottlerin. We conclude that PKC-alpha is required for O(2)(-)-stimulated NaCl absorption in the thick ascending limb.

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
This study addresses the mechanisms of oxygen-induced regulation of ion transport pathways in mouse erythrocyte, specifically focusing on the role of cellular redox state and ATP levels. Mouse erythrocytes possess Na(+)/K(+) pump, K(+)-Cl(-) and Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporters that have been shown to be potential targets of oxygen. The activity of neither cotransporter changed in response to hypoxia-reoxygenation. In contrast, the Na(+)/K(+) pump responded to hypoxic treatment with reversible inhibition. Hypoxia-induced inhibition was abolished in Na(+)-loaded cells, revealing no effect of O(2) on the maximal operation rate of the pump. Notably, the inhibitory effect of hypoxia was not followed by changes in cellular ATP levels. Hypoxic exposure did, however, lead to a rapid increase in cellular glutathione (GSH) levels. Decreasing GSH to normoxic levels under hypoxic conditions abolished hypoxia-induced inhibition of the pump. Furthermore, GSH added to the incubation medium was able to mimic hypoxia-induced inhibition. Taken together these data suggest a pivotal role of intracellular GSH in oxygen-induced modulation of the Na(+)/K(+) pump activity.

Abstract
Previous experiments using cross-linked tetrameric hemoglobins (XLHb) to perfuse isolated rat kidneys showed that high-O2-affinity XLHb improved proximal tubule function more effectively than low-O2-affinity XLHb. To determine how function was improved, proximal tubule fragments were incubated with albumin, Hb34 [half-saturation point (P50) 34 Torr], or Hb13 (P50 13 Torr) with Po2 values ranging from 22 to 147 Torr. ATP content reflected O2 delivery to mitochondria. Both XLHb increased ATP, Hb34 with Po2 >or= 47 Torr and Hb13 with Po2 <or= 47 Torr. XLHb increased Na-K-ATPase activity (86Rb uptake) in similar Po2-dependent patterns. O2 consumption (Qo2) was measured in a closed, well-stirred chamber. Ouabain- and oligomycin-inhibited Qo2, reflecting Na-K-ATPase activity and oxidative phosphorylation, respectively, mirrored the Po2-dependent patterns of ATP and 86Rb uptake. As Po2 fell below the midpoint of XLHb desaturation, Qo2, uncoupled from oxidative phosphorylation, transiently increased. The increase was most pronounced with Hb34. Nitro-l-arginine methyl ester had no effect on Qo2. Inhibitors of NAD(P)H oxidases and diamine oxidase partially prevented the Qo2 surge with Hb34. In conclusion, facilitated diffusion accounts for Po2-dependent XLHb effects on ATP content and Na-K-ATPase and for Hb13's effectiveness in hypoxic perfused kidneys. NO scavenging was not a factor. O2-binding characteristics influence XLHb effects on mitochondria and O2-sensitive enzymes such as oxidases.

Abstract
The FXYD gene family has seven members in mammals and others in fish. Five of these (FXYD1, FXYD2, FXYD4, FXYD7, and PLMS from shark) have been shown to alter the activity of the Na,K-ATPase, as described by other papers in this volume. The gene structure of FXYD family members suggests assembly from protein domain modules and gene duplication. The gamma subunit is unique in the family for having alternative splice variants in the coding region and can be posttranslationally modified with different final consequences for enzyme properties. The nonoverlapping distribution of gamma and CHIF (FXYD4) in kidney helps to explain physiological differences in Na(+) affinity among nephron segments. We also detected phospholemman (FXYD1) in kidney. By immunofluorescence, it was found in extraglomerular mesangial cells (EM cells) of the juxtaglomerular apparatus and in the afferent arteriole. Contrary to many reports that only alpha1 and beta1 are expressed in the kidney, we found that alpha2 and beta2 are present, although not in any nephron segment. Both were detected in arterioles, and beta2 was found in the EM cells. In contrast, alpha1, beta1, and gamma were found in adjacent macula densa. Phospholemman, alpha2, and beta2 are proposed to have distinct roles in regulating the sodium pump in structures involved in tubuloglomerular feedback.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS C-peptide, the cleavage product of proinsulin processing exerts physiological effects including stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in erythrocytes and renal proximal tubules. This study was undertaken to assess the physiological effects of connecting peptide on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. METHODS Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was measured as the ouabain-sensitive generation of (32)Pi from gamma[(32)P]-ATP and (86)Rb uptake on isolated rat medullary thick ascending limbs. The cell-surface expression of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was evaluated by Western blotting of biotinylated proteins, and its phosphorylation amount was measured by autoradiography. The membrane-associated fraction of protein kinase C isoforms was evaluated by Western blotting. RESULTS Rat connecting peptide concentration-dependently stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity with a threshold at 10(-9) mol/l and a maximal effect at 10(-7) mol/l. C-peptide (10(-7) mol/l) already stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity after 5 min with a plateau from 15 to 60 min. C-peptide (10(-7) mol/l) stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and (86)Rb uptake to the same extent, but did not alter Na(+),K(+)-ATPase cell surface expression. The stimulation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was associated with an increase in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit phosphorylation and both effects were abolished by a specific protein kinase C inhibitor. Furthermore, connecting peptide induced selective membrane translocation of PKC-alpha. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION This study provides evidence that in rat medullary thick ascending limb, C-peptide stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity within a physiological concentration range. This effect is due to an increase in Na(+),K(+)-ATPase turnover rate that is most likely mediated by protein kinase C-alpha phosphorylation of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit, suggesting that C-peptide could control Na(+) reabsorption during non-fasting periods.

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
Sodium and potassium-exchanging adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) in the kidney is associated with the gamma subunit (gamma, FXYD2), a single-span membrane protein that modulates ATPase properties. Rat and human gamma occur in two splice variants, gamma(a) and gamma(b), with different N termini. Here we investigated their structural heterogeneity and functional effects on Na,K-ATPase properties. Both forms were post-translationally modified during in vitro translation with microsomes, indicating that there are four possible forms of gamma. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed Thr(2) and Ser(5) as potential sites for post-translational modification. Similar modification can occur in cells, with consequences for Na,K-ATPase properties. We showed previously that stable transfection of gamma(a) into NRK-52E cells resulted in reduction of apparent affinities for Na(+) and K(+). Individual clones differed in gamma post-translational modification, however, and the effect on Na(+) affinity was absent in clones with full modification. Here, transfection of gamma(b) also resulted in clones with or without post-translational modification. Both groups showed a reduction in Na(+) affinity, but modification was required for the effect on K(+) affinity. There were minor increases in ATP affinity. The physiological importance of the reduction in Na(+) affinity was shown by the slower growth of gamma(a), gamma(b), and gamma(b') transfectants in culture. The differential influence of the four structural variants of gamma on affinities of the Na,K-ATPase for Na(+) and K(+), together with our previous finding of different distributions of gamma(a) and gamma(b) along the rat nephron, suggests a highly specific mode of regulation of sodium pump properties in kidney.

Abstract
Renal Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is associated with the gamma-subunit (FXYD2), a single-span membrane protein that modifies ATPase properties. There are two splice variants with different amino termini, gamma(a) and gamma(b). Both were found in the inner stripe of the outer medulla in the thick ascending limb. Coimmunoprecipitation with each other and the alpha-subunit indicated that they were associated in macromolecular complexes. Association was controlled by ligands that affect Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase conformation. In the cortex, the proportion of the gamma(b)-subunit was markedly lower, and the gamma(a)-subunit predominated in isolated proximal tubule cells. By immunofluorescence, the gamma(b)-subunit was detected in the superficial cortex only in the distal convoluted tubule and connecting tubule, which are rich in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase but comprise a minor fraction of cortex mass. In the outer stripe of the outer medulla and for a short distance in the deep cortex, the thick ascending limb predominantly expressed the gamma(b)-subunit. Because different mechanisms maintain and regulate Na(+) homeostasis in different nephron segments, the splice forms of the gamma-subunit may have evolved to control the renal Na(+) pump through pump properties, gene expression, or both.

Abstract
In different species and tissues, a great variety of hormones modulate Na+,K+-ATPase activity in a short-term fashion. Such regulation involves the activation of distinct intracellular signaling networks that are often hormone- and tissue-specific. This minireview focuses on our own experimental observations obtained by studying the regulation of the rodent proximal tubule Na+,K+-ATPase. We discuss evidence that hormones responsible for regulating kidney proximal tubule sodium reabsorption may not affect the intrinsic catalytic activity of the Na+,K+-ATPase, but rather the number of active units within the plasma membrane due to shuttling Na+,K+-ATPase molecules between intracellular compartments and the plasma membrane. These processes are mediated by different isoforms of protein kinase C and depend largely on variations in intracellular sodium concentrations.

Abstract
ANG II increases fluid absorption in proximal tubules from young rats more than those from adult rats. ANG II increases fluid absorption in the proximal nephron, in part, via activation of protein kinase C (PKC). However, it is unclear how age-related changes in ANG II-induced stimulation of the PKC cascade differ as an animal matures. We hypothesized that the response of the proximal nephron to ANG II decreases as rats mature due to a reduction in the amount and activation of PKC rather than a decrease in the number or affinity of ANG II receptors. Because PKC translocates from the cytosol to the membrane when activated, we first measured PKC activity in the soluble and particulate fractions of proximal tubule homogenates exposed to vehicle or 10(-10) M ANG II from young (26 +/- 1 days old) and adult rats (54 +/- 1 days old). ANG II increased PKC activity to the same extent in homogenates from young rats (from 0.119 +/- 0.017 to 0.146 +/- 0.015 U/mg protein) (P < 0.01) and adult rats (from 0.123 +/- 0.020 to 0.156 +/- 0.023 U/mg protein) (P < 0.01). Total PKC activity did not differ between groups (0.166 +/- 0.018 vs. 0.181 +/- 0.023). We next investigated whether activation of the alpha-, beta-, and gamma-PKC isoforms differed by Western blot. In homogenates from young rats, ANG II significantly increased activated PKC-alpha from 40.2 +/- 6.5 to 60.2 +/- 9.5 arbitrary units (AU) (P < 0.01) but had no effect in adult rats (46.1 +/- 5.1 vs. 48.5 +/- 8.2 AU). Similarly, ANG II increased activated PKC-gamma in proximal tubules from young rats from 47.9 +/- 13.2 to 65.6 +/- 16.7 AU (P < 0.01) but caused no change in adult rats. Activated PKC-beta, however, increased significantly in homogenates from both age groups. Specifically, activated PKC-beta increased from 8.6 +/- 1.4 to 12.2 +/- 2.1 AU (P < 0.01) in homogenates from nine young rats and from 19.0 +/- 5.5 to 25.1 +/- 7.1 AU (P < 0.01) in homogenates from 12 adult rats. ANG II did not alter the amount of soluble PKC-alpha, -beta, and -gamma significantly. The total amount of PKC-alpha and -gamma did not differ between homogenates from young and adult rats, whereas the total amount of PKC-beta was 59.7 +/- 10.7 and 144.9 +/- 41.8 AU taken from young and adult rats, respectively (P < 0.05). Maximum specific binding and affinity of ANG II receptors were not significantly different between young and adult rats. We concluded that the primary PKC isoform activated by ANG II changes during maturation.

Abstract
The gamma-subunit of the Na-K-ATPase is a single-span membrane protein that alters the kinetic properties of the enzyme. It is expressed in the kidney, but our initial observations indicated that it is not present in all nephron segments (Arystarkhova E, Wetzel RK, Asinovski NK, and Sweadner KJ. J Biol Chem 274: 33183-33185, 1999). Here we used triple-label confocal immunofluorescence microscopy in rat kidney with antibodies to Na-K-ATPase alpha1- and gamma-subunits and nephron segment-specific markers. Na-K-ATPase alpha1-subunit stain was low but unambiguous in proximal segments, moderate in macula densa, connecting tubules, and cortical collecting ducts, high in thick ascending limb and distal convoluted tubules, and nearly undetectable in glomeruli, descending and ascending thin limb, and medullary collecting ducts. The gamma-subunit colocalized at staining levels similar to alpha1-subunit in basolateral membranes in all segments except cortical thick ascending limb and cortical collecting ducts, which had alpha1-subunit but no detectable gamma-subunit stain. Selective gamma-subunit expression may contribute to the variations in Na-K-ATPase properties in different renal segments.

Abstract
Aldosterone controls sodium reabsorption and potassium secretion in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron (ASDN). Although clearance measurements have shown that aldosterone induces these transports within 30--60 min, no early effects have been demonstrated in vivo at the level of the apical epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), the main effector of this regulation. Here we show by real-time RT-PCR and immunofluorescence that an aldosterone injection in adrenalectomized rats induces alpha-ENaC subunit expression along the entire ASDN within 2 h, whereas beta- and gamma-ENaC are constitutively expressed. In the proximal ASDN portions only, ENaC is shifted toward the apical cellular pole and the apical plasma membrane within 2 and 4 h, respectively. To address the question of whether the early aldosterone-induced serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase (SGK) might mediate this apical shift of ENaC, we analyzed SGK induction in vivo. Two hours after aldosterone, SGK was highly induced in all segment-specific cells of the ASDN, and its level decreased thereafter. In Xenopus laevis oocytes, SGK induced ENaC activation and surface expression by a kinase activity-dependent mechanism. In conclusion, the rapid in vivo accumulation of SGK and alpha-ENaC after aldosterone injection takes place along the entire ASDN, whereas the translocation of alpha,beta,gamma-ENaC to the apical plasma membrane is restricted to its proximal portions. Results from oocyte experiments suggest the hypothesis that a localized activation of SGK may play a role in the mediation of ENaC translocation.

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.

Abstract
It was hypothesized that the caffeine derivative paraxanthine results in subcontracture increases in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in resting skeletal muscle. Single fibers obtained from mouse flexor digitorum brevis were loaded with a fluorescent Ca(2+) indicator, indo 1-acetoxymethyl ester. After a stable baseline was recorded, the fiber was superfused with physiological salt solution (Tyrode) containing 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, or 5 mM paraxanthine, resulting in [Ca(2+)](i) increases of 6.4 +/- 2.5, 9.7 +/- 3.6, 26.8 +/- 11.7, and 39.6 +/- 9.6 nM, respectively. The increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were transient and were also observed with exposure to 5 mM theophylline and theobromine. Six fibers were exposed to 5 mM paraxanthine followed by 5 mM paraxanthine in the presence of 10 mM procaine (sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release channel blocker). There was no increase from baseline [Ca(2+)](i) when fibers were superfused with paraxanthine and procaine, suggesting that the sarcoplasmic reticulum is the primary Ca(2+) source in the paraxanthine-induced response. In separate experiments, intact flexor digitorum brevis (n = 13) loaded with indo 1-acetoxymethyl ester had a significant increase in [Ca(2+)](i) with exposure to 0.01 mM paraxanthine. It is concluded that physiological and low pharmacological concentrations of paraxanthine result in transient, subcontracture increases in [Ca(2+)](i) in resting skeletal muscle, the magnitude of which is related to paraxanthine concentration.

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
The mechanism(s) by which dopamine inhibits Na+-K+-ATPase activity in the renal proximal tubule is still controversial. We studied the short-term effects of dopamine on the sodium pump in rat renal proximal tubule suspensions with the 86Rb uptake method. Dopamine and the D1-like agonist, SKF81297, initially stimulated Na+-K+-ATPase activity at 5 min and subsequently inhibited it at 10 min and 20 min; the inhibition by 10 microM dopamine at 20 min was 21.3 +/- 4.5%. The inhibitory effect of dopamine on Na+-K+-ATPase activity was mimicked by thymeleatoxin (a classical protein kinase C [PKC] agonist) while Sp-8-CPT-cAMPS (a protein kinase A [PKA] agonist) had no effect. However, the combination of the PKC and PKA agonists mimicked the biphasic effects of dopamine and SKF81297. Rp-8-CPT-cAMPS (a PKA inhibitor), U-73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor), or calphostin C (a PKC inhibitor), blocked the dopamine-mediated biphasic effects on Na+-K+-ATPase activity. It is suggested that the biphasic effects of dopamine on Na+-K+-ATPase activity (an initial stimulation and a subsequent inhibition) are transduced by activating both PKA and PKC through a D1-like receptor.

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
Nitric oxide (NO) reduces the molecular activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in opossum kidney (OK) cells, a proximal tubule cell line. In the present study, we investigated the cellular mechanisms for the inhibitory effect of NO on Na+-K+-ATPase. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a NO donor, inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase in OK cells, but not in LLC-PK1 cells, another proximal tubule cell line. Similarly, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase in OK, but not in LLC-PK1, cells. PKC inhibitors staurosporine or calphostin C, but not the protein kinase G inhibitor KT-5823, abolished the inhibitory effect of NO on Na+-K+-ATPase in OK cells. Immunoblotting demonstrated that treatment with NO donors caused significant translocation of PKCalpha from cytosolic to particulate fractions in OK, but not in LLC-PK1, cells. Furthermore, the translocation of PKCalpha in OK cells was attenuated by either the phospholipase C inhibitor U-73122 or the soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo-[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one. U-73122 also blunted the inhibitory effect of SNP on Na+-K+-ATPase in OK cells. The phospholipase A2 inhibitor AACOCF3 did not blunt the inhibitory effect of SNP on Na+-K+-ATPase in OK cells. AACOCF3 alone, however, also decreased Na+-K+-ATPase activity in OK cells. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that NO activates PKCalpha in OK, but not in LLC-PK1, cells.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia results in an increase in intracellular sodium concentration ([Na]i), which may lead to cellular injury via cellular swelling and calcium overload. Because protein kinase C (PKC) has been shown to reduce Na-K-ATPase activity, we postulated that pharmacological inhibition of PKC would directly increase Na-K-ATPase activity, reduce [Na]i during ischemia, and provide protection from ischemic injury. Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30 min of global ischemia with and without the specific PKC inhibitor chelerythrine. Intracellular pH, ATP, and [Na]i were assessed using 31P and 23Na NMR spectroscopy, whereas Na-K-ATPase and PKC activity were determined using biochemical assays. Na/H exchanger activity was determined using the ammonium prepulse technique under nonischemic conditions. Chelerythrine increased Na-K-ATPase activity (13.76 +/- 0.89 vs. 10.89 +/- 0.80 mg ADP. h(-1). mg protein(-1); P = 0.01), reduced PKC activity in both the membrane and cytosolic fractions (39% and 28% of control, respectively), and reduced creatine kinase release on reperfusion (48 +/- 5 IU/g dry wt vs. 689 +/- 63 IU/g dry wt; P = 0.008). The rise in [Na](i) during ischemia was significantly reduced in hearts treated with chelerythrine (peak [Na](i) chelerythrine: 21.5 +/- 1.2 mM; control: 31.9 +/- 1.2 mM; P < 0.0001), without an effect on either acidosis (nadir pH 6.16 +/- 0.05 for chelerythrine vs. 6.08 +/- 0.04 for control), the rate of ATP depletion or Na/H exchanger activity. These data support the hypothesis that pharmacological inhibition of PKC before ischemia induces cardioprotection by reducing intracellular sodium overload via an increase in Na-K-ATPase activity.

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
Phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of Na+,K(+)-ATPase plays an important role in the regulation of this pump. Recent studies suggest that insulin, known to increase solute and fluid reabsorption in mammalian proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), is stimulating Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity through the tyrosine phosphorylation process. This study was therefore undertaken to evaluate the role of tyrosine phosphorylation of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit in the action of insulin. In rat PCT, insulin and orthovanadate (a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor) increased tyrosine phosphorylation level of the alpha-subunit more than twofold. Their effects were not additive, suggesting a common mechanism of action. Insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation was prevented by genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The site of tyrosine phosphorylation was identified on Tyr-10 by controlled trypsinolysis in rat PCTs and by site-directed mutagenesis in opossum kidney cells transfected with rat alpha-subunit. The functional relevance of Tyr-10 phosphorylation was assessed by 1) the abolition of insulin-induced stimulation of the ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake in opossum kidney cells expressing mutant rat alpha1-subunits wherein tyrosine was replaced by alanine or glutamine; and 2) the similarity of the time course and dose dependency of the insulin-induced increase in ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake and tyrosine phosphorylation. These findings indicate that phosphorylation of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit at Tyr-10 likely participates in the physiological control of sodium reabsorption in PCT.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) inhibits rodent proximal tubule Na+,K+-ATPase via stimulation of protein kinase C (PKC). However, direct stimulation of PKC by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) results in increased Na+,K+-ATPase. LY333531, a specific inhibitor of the PKC-beta isoform, prevents PMA-dependent activation of Na+,K+-ATPase, but has no effect on DA inhibition of this activity. A similar result was obtained with a PKC-beta inhibitor peptide. Concentrations of staurosporine, that inhibits PKC-zeta, prevent DA-dependent inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase and a similar effect was obtained with a PKC-zeta inhibitor peptide. Thus, PMA-dependent stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase is mediated by activation of PKC-beta, whereas inhibition by DA requires activation of PKC-zeta.

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
This review updates our current knowledge on the regulation of Na+/H+ exchanger, Na+,K+,Cl- cotransporter, Na+,Pi cotransporter, and Na+,K+ pump in isolated epithelial cells from mammalian kidney by protein kinase C (PKC). In cells derived from different tubule segments, an activator of PKC, 4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), inhibits apical Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE3), Na+,Pi cotransport, and basolateral Na+,K+ cotransport (NKCC1) and augments Na+,K+ pump. In PMA-treated proximal tubules, activation of Na+,K+ pump probably plays a major role in increased reabsorption of salt and osmotically obliged water. In Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, which are highly abundant with intercalated cells from the collecting duct, PMA completely blocks Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport and decreases the activity of Na+,Pi cotransport by 30-40%. In these cells, agonists of P2 purinoceptors inhibit Na+,K+,Cl- and Na+,Pi cotransport by 50-70% via a PKC-independent pathway. In contrast with MDCK cells, in epithelial cells derived from proximal and distal tubules of the rabbit kidney, Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport is inhibited by PMA but is insensitive to P2 receptor activation. In proximal tubules, PKC-induced inhibition of NHE3 and Na+,Pi cotransporter can be triggered by parathyroid hormone. Both PKC and cAMP signaling contribute to dopaminergic inhibition of NHE3 and Na+,K+ pump. The receptors triggering PKC-mediated activation of Na+,K+ pump remain unknown. Recent data suggest that the PKC signaling system is involved in abnormalities of dopaminergic regulation of renal ion transport in hypertension and in the development of diabetic complications. The physiological and pathophysiological implications of PKC-independent regulation of renal ion transporters by P2 purinoceptors has not yet been examined.Key words: Na+/H+ exchanger, Na+,K+,Cl- and Na+,Pi cotransporters, Na+,K+ pump, protein kinase C, P2 purinoceptor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In rat kidney medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (MTAL), activation of protein kinase A (PKA) was previously reported to inhibit Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. This is paradoxical with the known stimulatory effect of cAMP on sodium reabsorption. Because this inhibition was mediated by phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activation, a pathway stimulated by hypoxia, we evaluated the influence of oxygen supply on cAMP action on Na+,K(+)-ATPase in MTAL. METHODS Ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity were measured in isolated MTALs. Cellular ATP content and the phosphorylation level of Na+,K(+)-ATPase were determined in suspensions of outer medullary tubules. Experiments were carried out under nonoxygenated or oxygenated conditions in the absence or presence of PKA activators. RESULTS cAMP analogues or forskolin associated with 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) inhibited ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake in nonoxygenated MTALs. In contrast, when oxygen supply was increased, cAMP stimulated ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. Improved oxygen supply was associated with increased intracellular ATP content. The phosphorylation level of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha subunit was increased by cAMP analogues or forskolin associated with IBMX in oxygenated as well as in nonoxygenated tubules. Under nonoxygenated conditions, the inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase was dissociated from its cAMP-dependent phosphorylation, whereas under oxygenated conditions, the stimulatory effect of cAMP analogues on ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake was linearly related and cosaturated with the level of phosphorylation of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha subunit. CONCLUSION In oxygenated MTALs, PKA-mediated stimulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase likely participates in the cAMP-dependent stimulation of sodium reabsorption. Under nonoxygenated conditions, this stimulatory pathway is likely overridden by the PLA2-mediated inhibitory pathway, a possible adaptation to protect the cells against hypoxic damage.

Abstract
Dopamine inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in renal tubule cells. This inhibition is associated with phosphorylation and internalization of the alpha subunit, both events being protein kinase C-dependent. Studies of purified preparations, fusion proteins with site-directed mutagenesis, and heterologous expression systems have identified two major protein kinase C phosphorylation residues (Ser-11 and Ser-18) in the rat alpha1 subunit isoform. To identify the phosphorylation site(s) that mediates endocytosis of the subunit in response to dopamine, we have performed site-directed mutagenesis of these residues in the rat alpha1 subunit and expressed the mutated forms in a renal epithelial cell line. Dopamine inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity and increased alpha subunit phosphorylation and clathrin-dependent endocytosis into endosomes in cells expressing the wild type alpha1 subunit or the S11A alpha1 mutant, and both effects were blocked by protein kinase C inhibition. In contrast, dopamine did not elicit any of these effects in cells expressing the S18A alpha1 mutant. While Ser-18 phosphorylation is necessary for endocytosis, it does not affect per se the enzymatic activity: preventing endocytosis with wortmannin or LY294009 blocked the inhibitory effect of dopamine on Na+,K+-ATPase activity, although it did not alter the increased alpha subunit phosphorylation induced by this agonist. We conclude that dopamine-induced inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase activity in rat renal tubule cells requires endocytosis of the alpha subunit into defined intracellular compartments and that phosphorylation of Ser-18 is essential for this process.

Abstract
The Na-K-ATPase is characterized by a complex molecular heterogeneity that results from the expression and differential association of multiple isoforms of both its alpha- and beta-subunits. At present, as many as four different alpha-polypeptides (alpha1, alpha2, alpha3, and alpha4) and three distinct beta-isoforms (beta1, beta2, and beta3) have been identified in mammalian cells. The stringent constraints on the structure of the Na pump isozymes during evolution and their tissue-specific and developmental pattern of expression suggests that the different Na-K-ATPases have evolved distinct properties to respond to cellular requirements. This review focuses on the functional properties, regulation, and possible physiological relevance of the Na pump isozymes. The coexistence of multiple alpha- and beta-isoforms in most cells has hindered the understanding of the roles of the individual polypeptides. The use of heterologous expression systems has helped circumvent this problem. The kinetic characteristics of different Na-K-ATPase isozymes to the activating cations (Na+ and K+), the substrate ATP, and the inhibitors Ca2+ and ouabain demonstrate that each isoform has distinct properties. In addition, intracellular messengers differentially regulate the activity of the individual Na-K-ATPase isozymes. Thus the regulation of specific Na pump isozymes gives cells the ability to precisely coordinate Na-K-ATPase activity to their physiological requirements.

Abstract
During the past decade, it has become evident that dopamine plays an important role in the regulation of renal function and blood pressure. Dopamine exerts its actions via a class of cell-surface receptors coupled to G-proteins that belong to the rhodopsin family. Dopamine receptors have been classified into two families based on pharmacologic and molecular cloning studies. In mammals, two D1-like receptors that have been cloned, the D1 and D5 receptors (known as D1A and D1B, respectively, in rodents), are linked to stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. Three D2-like receptors that have been cloned (D2, D3, and D4) are linked to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and Ca2+ channels and stimulation of K+ channels. All the mammalian dopamine receptors, initially cloned from the brain, have been found to be expressed outside the central nervous system, in such sites as the adrenal gland, blood vessels, carotid body, intestines, heart, parathyroid gland, and the kidney and urinary tract. Dopamine receptor subtypes are differentially expressed along the nephron, where they regulate renal hemodynamics and electrolyte and water transport, as well as renin secretion. The ability of renal proximal tubules to produce dopamine and the presence of receptors in these tubules suggest that dopamine can act in an autocrine or paracrine fashion; this action becomes most evident during extracellular fluid volume expansion. This renal autocrine/paracrine function is lost in essential hypertension and in some animal models of genetic hypertension; disruption of the D1 or D3 receptor produces hypertension in mice. In humans with essential hypertension, renal dopamine production in response to sodium loading is often impaired and may contribute to the hypertension. The molecular basis for the dopaminergic dysfunction in hypertension is not known, but may involve an abnormal post-translational modification of the dopamine receptor.

Abstract
Ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis (Na,K-ATPase activity) was measured in digitonin-permeabilized monolayers of cultured cells derived from rabbit non-pigmented ciliary epithelium. Diminished Na,K-ATPase activity was observed in cells that had been pre-treated 10 min with the protein kinase C activator, PDBu, as well as in cells that had been cooled to 4 degrees C for 4 h then rewarmed to 37 degrees C for 30 min (cool-rewarm manoeuvre). In the intact cells, ouabain binding was not decreased either by PDBu treatment or the cool-rewarm manoeuvre. However, both PDBu and the cool-rewarm manoeuvre increased the rate of ouabain-sensitive potassium (86Rb) uptake measured in intact cells. Cell ATP content was diminished in PDBu-treated cells and cells subjected to the cool-rewarm manoeuvre. We suggest that an episode of ATP depletion might initiate a mechanism which causes lasting, partial inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity. In keeping with this suggestion, diminished Na,K-ATPase activity was observed in cells that had been pre-treated 20 min with the metabolic inhibitors CCCP or rotenone and in cells pre-treated 2.5 h in dextrose-free medium. This study illustrates that Na,K-ATPase activity measured in the permeabilized cell is a complex parameter which is not necessarily a reliable indicator of sodium pump responses in the intact cell.

Abstract
Activation by protein kinase A by forskolin phosphorylates and inactivates Na+,K(+)-ATPase in COS-7 cells (Cheng et al. 1997b). In this study we show, using [3H]ouabain binding, that forskolin-induced inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity is not because of internalization of the enzyme. The effect of forskolin on Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity was examined by two independent methods, ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in intact cells and ATP hydrolysis in microsomal preparations from cells. The change in number of functional pumps on cell surface before and after protein kinase A activation was assessed by [3H]ouabain binding measured under equilibrium conditions. Cells, which had been ATP-depleted by antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose treatment, served as a positive control for the internalization of Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Activation of protein kinase A with forskolin in combination with the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methyl xanthine, inhibited Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity, but this treatment had no effect on specific ouabain binding. No change in ouabain binding was found following activation of protein kinase C by phorbol ester or diacyl glycerol analogue treatment in cells. These data suggest that protein kinase A phosphorylation and inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity does not lead to any internalization of the enzyme in COS-7 cells.

Abstract
This article reviews related studies from the authors' laboratory, which focus on the regulation of vascular Na+,K+-ATPase in hypertension. Earlier studies, including the authors', suggested that Na-pump activity in cardiovascular tissues is subject to regulation during hypertension; most of these studies report a stimulation of the vascular enzyme during established stages of hypertension. To test hypothesis that in vascular smooth muscle, strain resulting from elevated pressure may be a signal initiating a cascade of events leading to increased expression of Na+,K+-ATPase, the authors used cell culture and the Flexercell Strain Unit to apply cyclical stretch to rat aortic smooth muscle cells (ASMC) for several days. These studies demonstrated that mechanical strain induces the upregulation of both the alpha-1 and alpha-2 subunits of Na+,K+-ATPase. Mechanisms underlying these changes appear to involve a transient increase in intracellular sodium entering the cell through stretch-activated channels. Calcium entering the cell via L-type channels did not affect stretch-induced upregulation of the alpha isoforms. In addition, protein kinase C inhibition resulted in inhibition of the Na-pump during stretch, but not under nonstretch conditions. The authors conclude that the stretch component of vascular pressure upregulates the Na+,K+-ATPase catalytic subunits. Intracellular sodium may be a signal for this regulation. In addition, phosphorylation by PKC may be important in stretch-induced short-term regulation of the vascular Na-pump.

Abstract
1. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of control of Na+,K+-ATPase activity by the cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway in rat proximal convoluted tubules. For this purpose, we studied the in vitro action of exogenous cAMP (10-3 M dibutyryl-cAMP (db-cAMP) or 8-bromo-cAMP) and endogenous cAMP (direct activation of adenylyl cyclases by 10-5 M forskolin) on Na+,K+-ATPase activity and membrane trafficking. 2. PKA activation stimulated both the cation transport and hydrolytic activity of Na+,K+-ATPase by about 40%. Transport activity stimulation was specific to the PKA signalling pathway since (1) db-cAMP stimulated the ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in a time- and dose-dependent fashion; (2) this effect was abolished by addition of H-89 or Rp-cAMPS, two structurally different PKA inhibitors; and (3) this stimulation was not affected by inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) by GF109203X. The stimulatory effect of db-cAMP on the hydrolytic activity of Na+,K+-ATPase was accounted for by an increased maximal ATPase rate (Vmax) without alteration of the efficiency of the pump, suggesting that cAMP-PKA pathway was implicated in membrane redistribution control. 3. To test this hypothesis, we used two different approaches: (1) cell surface protein biotinylation and (2) subcellular fractionation. Both approaches confirmed that the cAMP-PKA pathway was implicated in membrane trafficking regulation. The stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase activity by db-cAMP was associated with an increase (+40%) in Na+, K+-ATPase units expressed at the cell surface which was assessed by Western blotting after streptavidin precipitation of biotinylated cell surface proteins. Subcellular fractionation confirmed the increased expression in pump units at the cell surface which was accompanied by a decrease (-30%) in pump units located in the subcellular fraction corresponding to early endosomes. 4. In conclusion, PKA stimulates Na+,K+-ATPase activity, at least in part, by increasing the number of Na+-K+ pumps in the plasma membrane in proximal convoluted tubule cells.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase activity has been demonstrated to be regulated by a variety of hormones in different tissues. It is known to be directly phosphorylated on its alpha-subunit, but the functional effects of protein kinases remain controversial. We have developed a sensitive, antibody-based assay for detection of the level of phosphorylation of the alpha1-isoform of rat Na,K-ATPase at the serine residue that is most readily phosphorylated by protein kinase C (PKC) in vitro, Ser18. By stimulation of endogenous PKC and inhibition of phosphatase activity, it was possible to consistently obtain a very high stoichiometry of phosphorylation (close to 0.9) in several types of intact cells. This demonstrates the accessibility and competency of the site for endogenous phosphorylation. The cells used were derived from rat (NRK 52E, C6, L6, and primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells, representing epithelial cells, glia, muscle cells, and neurons). In the presence of the phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A, full phosphorylation was preserved during subsequent assays of enzyme activity in vitro. Assay of the hydrolysis of ATP in NRK and C6 cells, however, indicated that there was no significant effect of phosphorylation on the Vmax of the Na, K-ATPase or on the apparent affinity for Na+. Any regulatory effect of PKC on sodium pump activity thus must be lost upon disruption or permeabilization of the cells and is not a direct consequence of enzyme alteration by covalent phosphorylation of Ser18.

Abstract
It is well documented that the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase can be inhibited by the arachidonic acid metabolite, 20-hydroxyeicosa-tetraenoic acid (20 HETE). Evidence is presented here that this effect is mediated by protein kinase C (PKC). PKC inhibitors abolished 20 HETE inhibition of rat Na+,K+-ATPase in renal tubular cells. 20 HETE caused translocation of PKC alpha from cytoplasm to membrane in COS cells. It also inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase activity in COS cells transfected with rat wild-type renal Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit, but not in cells transfected with Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1, where the PKC phosphorylation site, serine 23, had been mutated to alanine. PKC-induced phosphorylation of rat renal Na+,K+-ATPase, as well as of histone was strongly enhanced by 20 HETE at the physiologic calcium concentration of 1.3 microM, but not at the calcium concentration of 200 microM. The results indicate that phospholipase A2-arachidonic acid-20 HETE pathway can exert important biological effects via activation of PKC and that this effect may occur in the absence of a rise in intracellular calcium.

Abstract
The effect of protein kinase C (PKC) stimulation on the pump current (Ip) generated by the Na,K-ATPase was measured in A6 epithelia apically permeabilized with amphotericin B. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) produced a decrease in Ip carried by sodium pumps containing the endogenous Xenopus laevis or transfected Bufo marinus alpha 1 subunits (approximately 30% reduction within 25 min, maximum after 40 min) independent of the PKC phosphorylation site (T15A/S16A). In addition to this major effect of PMA, which was independent of the intracellular sodium concentration and was prevented by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide GF 109203X (BIM), another BIM-resistant, PKC site-independent decrease was observed when the Ip was measured at low sodium concentrations (total reduction approximately 50% at 5 mM sodium). Using ouabain binding and cell surface biotinylation, stimulation of PKC was shown to reduce surface Na,K-ATPase by 14 to 20% within 25 min. The same treatment stimulated fluid phase endocytosis sevenfold and decreased by 16.5% the basolateral cell surface area measured by transepithelial capacitance measurements. In conclusion, PKC stimulation produces a decrease in sodium pump function which can be attributed, to a large extent, to a withdrawal of sodium pumps from the basolateral cell surface independent of their PKC site. This reduction of the number of sodium pumps is parallel to a decrease in basolateral membrane area.

Abstract
We investigated in intact cortical kidney tubules the role of PKA-mediated phosphorylation in the short-term control of Na+,K+-ATPase activity. The phosphorylation level of Na+,K+-ATPase was evaluated after immunoprecipitation of the enzyme from 32P-labelled cortical tubules and the cation transport activity of Na+,K+-ATPase was measured by ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake. Incubation of cells with cAMP analogues (8-bromo-cAMP, dibutyryl-cAMP) or with forskolin plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine increased the phosphorylation level of the Na+,K+-ATPase alpha-subunit and stimulated ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake. Inhibition of PKA by H-89 blocked the effects of dibutyryl-cAMP on both phosphorylation and 86Rb+ uptake processes. The results suggest that phosphorylation by PKA stimulates the Na+,K+-ATPase activity.

Abstract
The concentration of Na,K-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and Na,K-ATPase-dependent adenosine triphosphate (ATP) turnover was measured in fasting blood samples of 20 subjects with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), 22 subjects with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), and 20 nondiabetic subjects. [3H]ouabain binding was used to determine Na,K-ATPase concentration. There were 471 +/- 70 (mean +/- SD) ouabain binding sites per erythrocyte, normally distributed in the nondiabetic subjects. The number of ouabain sites per cell was lognormally distributed in the two populations of diabetic subjects. The mean of lognormal distributions of ouabain sites per cell was significantly lower in the IDDM group. The mean of the lognormal distribution for the NIDDM group was not significantly different from that of the nondiabetic subjects. Na,K-ATPase-dependent ATP turnover (molar activity) was 9,580 +/- 742 mol/mol minute (mean +/- SD) normally distributed in the nondiabetic population. A lognormal distribution was observed in the diabetic population. Means of the lognormal distributions were significantly different: 3.98 +/- 0.05 for the nondiabetic population and 3.13 +/- 0.48 for both diabetic populations. Changes in the concentration of Na,K-ATPase (ouabain sites per cell) and Na,K-ATPase-dependent ATP turnover did not correlate with hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) or with blood glucose. This would suggest that elevated glucose concentrations do not directly cause decreased Na,K-ATPase function in the diabetic erythrocyte.

Abstract
1. NaCl reabsorption along the loop of Henle is reduced in K(+)-depleted rats. Because Na+,K(+)-ATPase energizes this transport and because K+ depletion is known to induce an upregulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase in most tissues, the regulation of this enzyme was investigated at the level of single thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle freshly microdissected from rats fed either a normal (control rats) or a low-K+ diet (LK rats). 2. Within 2 weeks of K+ depletion, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity and [3H]ouabain binding were increased by 30-50% in the medullary portion of the thick ascending limb (MTAL). 3. Despite this increase in the number of Na+,K(+)-ATPase units, the transport capacity of the Na+,K+ pump, determined by ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake in the presence of an extracellular concentration of Rb+ mimicking the kalaemia determined in control (4.0 mM Rb+) and LK rats (2.3 mM Rb+), was reduced in MTAL from LK rats. 4. Inhibition of the Na+,K+ pump was not accounted for by changes in either extracellular K+ or intracellular Na+ concentrations, but by a decrease in the pump affinity for Na+. 5. Because this change in the apparent affinity of the Na+,K+ pump for Na+ was detectable in intact but not in permeabilized MTAL cells, it is probably induced by a rapidly reversible cytosolic factor.

Abstract
1. The collecting duct is involved in the whole antinatriuretic effect of insulin, as indicated in vitro by the stimulatory effect of the hormone on ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake. Since Na+,K(+)-ATPase drives Na+ reabsorption, the contribution of the Na+ pump to the effect of insulin was investigated in rat isolated cortical and outer medullary collecting duct. 2. Insulin enhanced ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in the absence, as well as in the presence, of either 5 x 10(-4) M amiloride or 10(-3) M hydrochlorothiazide (HCT). Maximal ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake, measured in Na(+)-loaded tubules, was also enhanced by insulin. The insulin effect persisted both in the absence of external Na+, when the Na+,K(+)-ATPase operates in a Rb(+)-Rb+ exchange mode, and in tubules depolarized by a high external concentration (20 mM) of Rb+ or by addition of 3 mM Ba2+. 3. Insulin treatment did not alter the intracellular Na and K concentrations, the specific binding of [3H]ouabain measured in intact tubules, or the hydrolytic activity of Na+,K(+)-ATPase measured after permeabilization of the tubule cells. 4. In conclusion, in the rat collecting duct, insulin increased Na+,K(+)-ATPase-mediated cation transport independently of Na+ availability, membrane potential and recruitment of pump units. The effect of insulin was lost after cell permeabilization, suggesting the presence of a cytosolic factor which controls the turnover of Na+,K(+)-ATPase.
