Interactions between the intrarenal dopaminergic and the renin-angiotensin systems in the control of systemic arterial pressure. Clin Sci (Lond) 2022; 136:1205-1227. [PMID: 35979889 DOI: 10.1042/cs20220338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Revised: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Systemic arterial hypertension is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the general population, being a risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases. Although its pathogenesis is complex and still poorly understood, some systems appear to play major roles in its development. This review aims to update the current knowledge on the interaction of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and dopaminergic system in the development of hypertension, focusing on recent scientific hallmarks in the field. The intrarenal RAS, composed of several peptides and receptors, has a critical role in the regulation of blood pressure (BP) and, consequently, the development of hypertension. The RAS is divided into two main intercommunicating axes: the classical axis, composed of angiotensin-converting enzyme, angiotensin II, and angiotensin type 1 receptor, and the ACE2/angiotensin-(1-7)/Mas axis, which appears to modulate the effects of the classical axis. Dopamine and its receptors are also increasingly showing an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension, as abnormalities in the intrarenal dopaminergic system impair the regulation of renal sodium transport, regardless of the affected dopamine receptor subtype. There are five dopamine receptors, which are divided into two major subtypes: the D1-like (D1R and D5R) and D2-like (D2R, D3R, and D4R) receptors. Mice deficient in any of the five dopamine receptor subtypes have increased BP. Intrarenal RAS and the dopaminergic system have complex interactions. The balance between both systems is essential to regulate the BP homeostasis, as alterations in the control of both can lead to hypertension.

Deciphering Spinal Endogenous Dopaminergic Mechanisms That Modulate Micturition Reflexes in Rats with Spinal Cord Injury. eNeuro 2021; 8:ENEURO.0157-21.2021. [PMID: 34244339 PMCID: PMC8328273 DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0157-21.2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2021] [Revised: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 06/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Spinal neuronal mechanisms regulate recovered involuntary micturition after spinal cord injury (SCI). It was recently discovered that dopamine (DA) is synthesized in the rat injured spinal cord and is involved in lower urinary tract (LUT) activity. To fully understand the role of spinal DAergic machinery in micturition, we examined urodynamic responses in female rats during pharmacological modulation of the DA pathway. Three to four weeks after complete thoracic SCI, the DA precursor L-DOPA administered intravenously during bladder cystometrogram (CMG) and external urethral sphincter (EUS) electromyography (EMG) reduced bladder overactivity and increased the duration of EUS bursting, leading to remarkably improved voiding efficiency. Apomorphine (APO), a non-selective DA receptor (DR) agonist, or quinpirole, a selective DR2 agonist, induced similar responses, whereas a specific DR2 antagonist remoxipride alone had only minimal effects. Meanwhile, administration of SCH 23390, a DR1 antagonist, reduced voiding efficiency by increasing tonic EUS activity and shortening the EUS bursting period. Unexpectedly, SKF 38393, a selective DR1 agonist, increased EUS tonic activity, implying a complicated role of DR1 in LUT function. In metabolic cage assays, subcutaneous administration of quinpirole decreased spontaneous voiding frequency and increased voiding volume; L-DOPA and APO were inactive possibly because of slow entry into the CNS. Collectively, tonically active DR1 in SCI rats inhibit urine storage and enhance voiding by differentially modulating EUS tonic and bursting patterns, respectively, while pharmacologic activation of DR2, which are normally silent, improves voiding by enhancing EUS bursting. Thus, enhancing DA signaling achieves better detrusor-sphincter coordination to facilitate micturition function in SCI rats.

Abstract
Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) often causes micturition dysfunction. We recently discovered a low level of spinally-derived dopamine (DA) that regulates recovered bladder and sphincter reflexes in SCI female rats. Considering substantial sexual dimorphic features in the lower urinary tract, it is unknown if the DA-ergic mechanisms act in the male. Histological analysis showed a similar distribution of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)+ neurons in the lower cord of male rats and the number increased following thoracic SCI. Subsequently, focal electrical stimulation in slices obtained from L6/S1 spinal segments of SCI rats elicited detectable DA release with fast scan cyclic voltammetry. Using bladder cystometrogram and external urethral sphincter (EUS) electromyography in SCI male rats, intravenous (i.v.) administration of SCH 23390, a D1-like receptor (DR1) antagonist, induced significantly increased tonic EUS activity and a trend of increased residual volume, whereas activation of these receptors with SKF 38393 did not influence the reflex. Meanwhile, blocking spinal D2-like receptors (DR2) with remoxipride had no effect but stimulating these receptors with quinpirole elicited EUS bursting to increase voiding volume. Further, intrathecal delivery of SCH 23390 and quinpirole resulted in similar responses to those with i.v. delivery, respectively, which indicates the central action regardless of delivery route. In addition, metabolic cage assays showed that quinpirole increased the voiding frequency and total voiding volume in spontaneous micturition. Collectively, spinal DA-ergic machinery regulates recovered micturition reflex following SCI in male rats; spinal DR1 tonically suppress tonic EUS activity to enable voiding and activation of DR2 facilitates voiding.

Abstract
Simple Summary Circulating hormones and their specific receptors play a significant role in the development and progression of various cancers. This review aimed to summarize current knowledge about the dopamine D1 receptor’s biological role in different cancers, including breast cancer, central nervous system tumors, lymphoproliferative disorders, and other neoplasms. Treatment with dopamine D1 receptor agonists was proven to exert a major anti-cancer effect in many preclinical models. We highlight this receptor’s potential as a target for the adjunct therapy of tumors and discuss possibilities and necessities for further research in this area. Abstract Dopamine is a biologically active compound belonging to catecholamines. It plays its roles in the human body, acting both as a circulating hormone and neurotransmitter. It acts through G-protein-coupled receptors divided into two subgroups: D1-like receptors (D1R and D5R) and D2-like receptors (D2R, D3R, D4R). Physiologically, dopamine receptors are involved in central nervous system functions: motivation or cognition, and peripheral actions such as blood pressure and immune response modulation. Increasing evidence indicates that the dopamine D1 receptor may play a significant role in developing different human neoplasms. This receptor’s value was presented in the context of regulating various signaling pathways important in tumor development, including neoplastic cell proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, migration, invasiveness, or the enrichment of cancer stem cells population. Recent studies proved that its activation by selective or non-selective agonists is associated with significant tumor growth suppression, metastases prevention, and tumor microvasculature maturation. It may also exert a synergistic anti-cancer effect when combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitors or temozolomide. This review provides a comprehensive insight into the heterogeneity of dopamine D1 receptor molecular roles and signaling pathways in human neoplasm development and discusses possible perspectives of its therapeutic targeting as an adjunct anti-cancer strategy of treatment. We highlight the priorities for further directions in this research area.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused mostly by mutations in polycystin-1 or polycystin-2. Fluid flow leads to polycystin-dependent calcium influx and nuclear export of histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5), which facilitates the maintenance of renal epithelial architecture by de-repression of MEF2C target genes. Here, we screened a small-molecule library to find drugs that promotes nuclear export of HDAC5. We found that dopamine receptor antagonists, domperidone and loxapine succinate, stimulate export of HDAC5, even in Pkd1–/–cells. Domperidone targets Drd3 receptor to modulate the phosphorylation of HDAC5. Domperidone treatment increases HDAC5 phosphorylation likely by reducing protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity, thus shifting the equilibrium towards HDAC5-P and export from the nucleus. Treating Pkd1–/–mice with domperidone showed significantly reduced cystic growth and cell proliferation. Further, treated mice displayed a reduction in glomerular cyst and increased body weight and activity. These results suggest that HDAC5 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling may be modulated to impede disease progression in ADPKD and uncovers an unexpected role for a class of dopamine receptors in renal epithelial morphogenesis.

Delivery of sry1, but not sry2, to the kidney increases blood pressure and sns indices in normotensive wky rats. BMC PHYSIOLOGY 2009; 9:10.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our laboratory has shown that a locus on the SHR Y chromosome increases blood pressure (BP) in the SHR rat and in WKY rats with the SHR Y chromosome (SHR/y rat). A candidate for this Y chromosome hypertension locus is Sry, a gene that encodes a transcription factor responsible for testes determination. The SHR Y chromosome has six divergent Sry loci. The following study examined if exogenous Sry1 or Sry2 delivered to the kidney would elevate renal tyrosine hydroxylase, renal catecholamines, plasma catecholamines and telemetered BP over a 28 day period. We delivered 50 mug of either the expression construct Sry1/pcDNA 3.1, Sry2/pcDNA 3.1, or control vector into the medulla of the left kidney of normotensive WKY rats by electroporation. Weekly air stress was performed to determine BP responsiveness. Separate groups of animals were tested for renal function and plasma hormone patterns and pharmacological intervention using alpha adrenergic receptor blockade. Pre-surgery baseline and weekly blood samples were taken from Sry1 electroporated and control vector males for plasma renin, aldosterone, and corticosterone. BP was measured by telemetry and tyrosine hydroxylase and catecholamines by HPLC with electrochemical detection. RESULTS In the animals receiving the Sry1 plasmid there were significant increases after 21 days in resting plasma norepinephrine (NE, 27%) and renal tyrosine hydroxylase content (41%, p < .05) compared to controls. BP was higher in animals electroporated with Sry1 (143 mmHg, p < .05) compared to controls (125 mmHg) between 2-4 weeks. Also the pressor response to air stress was significantly elevated in males electroporated with Sry1 (41 mmHg) compared to controls (28 mmHg, p < .001). Sry2 did not elevate BP or SNS indices and further tests were not done. The hormone profiles for plasma renin, aldosterone, and corticosterone between electroporated Sry1 and control vector males showed no significant differences over the 28 day period. Alpha adrenergic receptor blockade prevented the air stress pressor response in both strains. Urinary dopamine significantly increased after 7 days post Sry electroporation. CONCLUSION These results are consistent with a role for Sry1 in increasing BP by directly or indirectly activating renal sympathetic nervous system activity.

Abstract
Predictors of tubular proteinuria (alpha 1-M/crea ratio >10 mg/mmol) were sought in 100 infants of 24-32 weeks' (group 1) and 69 of 34-42 weeks' gestation (group 2). Random spot urine samples were obtained in the former group at the ages of 0-3 days, at 1-2 weeks and thereafter at 2-week intervals until the disappearance of tubular proteinuria, and in the latter one sample at a mean (SD) of 3.0 days' (1.3) age. In group 1, gestational age correlated negatively with the first urinary alpha 1-M/crea ratio. The highest urinary alpha 1-M/crea ratios [median (range) 39.1 mg/mmol (9.5-268.9)] occurred at a median (range) of 5 days' (1-42) age. Low gestational age and the need for inotropes predicted tubular proteinuria early after birth, whereas low gestation and long duration of ventilator treatment predicted the highest alpha 1-M/crea ratios. Prolonged vancomycin treatment and low gestational age were associated with delayed normalization of tubular proteinuria. In group 2 no significant risk factors for tubular proteinuria were found. The urinary alpha 1-M/crea ratio seems to be a sensitive indicator of renal tubular function in neonates, with low gestational age, the need for inotropes and prolonged assisted ventilation being predictors of increased tubular proteinuria. Long vancomycin courses should be avoided in pre-term infants in view of the prolonged adverse renal effects.

Abstract
We examined the effect of dopamine on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) at infusion rates of 0.5, 2.5, and 7.5 micro g/kg per min in 15 premature neonates. Study infants (mean gestational age 34+/-2 weeks, mean birth weight 2.43+/-0.6 kg) had respiratory distress, were normotensive, and had a low urine output (0.9+/-0.1 ml/kg per hour). GFR was determined by the plasma clearance of inulin after a single bolus injection (200 mg/kg). Four hours after inulin administration, dopamine infusion was begun and continued over 6 h. GFR was estimated before and after beginning the dopamine infusions from the slope of the log of plasma inulin concentration versus time. Gestational age, weight, and baseline GFR were similar in all three groups. With a dopamine infusion rate of 0.5 micro g/kg per min there were no changes in GFR, urine output, heart rate, or blood pressure. At an infusion rate of 7.5 micro g/kg per min there was no change in GFR, although urine output, heart rate, and blood pressure all increased. At 2.5 micro g/kg per min there were significant increases in GFR and urine output, with no changes in blood pressure or heart rate. In oliguric, non-hypotensive neonates, GFR increased significantly at 2.5 micro g/kg per min of dopamine. This probably reflects the effects of afferent vasodilatation and may be important clinically when enhancement of GFR is the major treatment objective.

Abstract
Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, precursor of noradrenaline, is responsible for cardiovascular and renal actions, such as increase in myocardial contractility and cardiac output, without changes in heart rate, producing passive and active vasodilatation, diuresis and natriuresis. These cardiovascular and renal actions take place through the interaction with dopamine receptors, D(1), D(2), D(3), D(4), and D(5). Recent findings point to the possibility of D(6) and D(7)receptors. Dopamine is known to influence the control of arterial pressure by influencing the central and peripheral nervous system and target organs such as kidneys and adrenal glands, in some types of hypertension. Although dopamine and its derivatives have been shown to have antihypertensive effects, these are still being studied; therefore it is important to explain some physiological and pharmacological aspects of dopamine, its receptors, and the clinical uses it could have in the treatment of arterial hypertension and more recently in obesity, based on evidence proving a clear association between obesity and the decrease in the expression of D(2) receptors in the brain of obese persons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dopamine D(2)-like receptors are involved in the physiological response of renal haemodynamics to amino-acid infusion. The present study was performed to investigate whether domperidone, a D(2)-like receptor antagonist, modulates the pathological hyperfiltration in experimental diabetes mellitus. METHODS Renal function was studied in anaesthetized rats 2 weeks after induction of moderate diabetes mellitus by streptozotocin, and in non-diabetic controls. Rats in both groups continuously received domperidone or vehicle via drinking water. Following infusion of Ringer's saline for measurement of baseline values, an i.v. amino-acid load was applied to investigate the renal functional reserve. RESULTS In vehicle-treated diabetic rats baseline glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow were significantly higher compared with controls (1.10+/- 0.04 vs. 0.83+/-0.02 (P<0.004) and 4.83+/-0.26 vs 3.32+/-0.24 ml/min/100 g body weight (bw) (P<0.001) respectively). Domperidone completely normalized glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow in diabetic rats to values observed in vehicle-treated controls (0.81+/-0.07 (P=0.740) and 3.35+/- 0.30 ml/min/100 g bw (P=0.889) respectively). In the clearance experiments, arterial blood pressure, urinary flow rate and sodium excretion did not significantly differ when comparing the four groups. However, in conscious rats, urinary flow rate and sodium excretion were significantly higher in diabetic rats compared with non-diabetic controls. In both non-diabetic groups, amino-acid infusion induced a significant glomerular hyperfiltration that was completely absent in diabetic rats, and restored by domperidone treatment. In conscious vehicle-treated diabetic rats urinary albumin excretion was enhanced (449.0+/-47.7 vs. 185.7+/- 18.1 microg/24 h in non-diabetic rats (P<0.001)) and significantly lowered in diabetic rats by domperidone treatment (109.8+/-15.4 microg/24 h (P<0.001)). CONCLUSION The data suggest that dopaminergic mechanisms are involved in the changes in renal haemodynamics during early experimental diabetes mellitus in rats.

Abstract
Previous studies reported the existence of both D1- and D2-like receptors in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). However, especially with regard to natriuresis, it remains controversial. In the present study, rabbit CCD was perfused to characterize the receptor subtypes responsible for the tubular actions. Basolateral dopamine (DA) induced a dose-dependent depolarization of transepithelial voltage. Basolateral domperidone, a D2-like receptor antagonist, abolished depolarization, whereas SKF-81297, a D1-like receptor agonist, showed no significant change. In addition, bromocriptine, a D2-like receptor agonist, also caused depolarization, whereas SKF-81297, a D1-like receptor agonist, did not depolarize significantly. Moreover, RBI-257, a D4-specific antagonist, reversed the basolateral DA-induced depolarization. In contrast to the basolateral side, luminal DA caused depolarization via a D1-like receptor; however the change was less than that for basolateral DA. For further evaluation, 22Na+ flux (J(Na)) was measured to confirm the effect of DA on Na+ transport. Basolateral DA also caused a suppression of J(Na), and this reaction was abolished by domperidone. These results suggested that the basolateral D2-like receptor is mainly responsible for the natriuretic action of DA in rabbit CCD.

Abstract
In the present study we investigated the renal hemodynamic effects of dopamine D(3) receptor activation by R(+)-7-hydroxy-dipropylaminotetraline (7-OH-DPAT) in thiopental-anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats. In clearance experiments infusion of 7-OH-DPAT (0.01-1.0 microg. kg(-1). min(-1)) dose-dependently elevated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) without affecting mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). In renal blood flow experiments 7-OH-DPAT infusion (1.0 microg. kg(-1). min(-1)) increased GFR by 16 +/- 2%, associated with an unexpected fall in renal blood flow by 20 +/- 3% and a significant elevation of renal vascular resistance by 18 +/- 3%. The renal hemodynamic changes were not influenced by pretreatment with the D(2)-receptor antagonist S(-)-sulpiride but were completely abolished during D(3) receptor inhibition by 5,6-dimethoxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)indane (U-99194A). In micropuncture experiments 7-OH-DPAT (1.0 microg. kg(-1). min(-1)) significantly elevated stop-flow pressure measured in the early proximal tubules and reduced hydrostatic pressure at the first branching point of the efferent arteriole without altering MAP. We conclude from these data that pharmacological activation of dopamine D(3) receptors affects renal hemodynamics in anesthetized rats by preferential postglomerular vasoconstriction.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) has been shown to influence kidney function through endogenous synthesis and subsequent interaction with locally expressed dopamine receptor subtypes (D1, D5 as D1-like and D2, D3, and D4 as D2-like). DA, and DA-receptor specific agonists and antagonists can alter renal water and electrolyte excretion along with renin release when infused systemically or intrarenally. Such effects are brought about by a combination of renal hemodynamic and direct tubular effects evoked along the full length of the nephron. The cellular mechanisms that direct these dopamine-mediated renal electrolyte fluxes have recently been clarified and include alterations in adenylyl cyclase, phospholipase C, and phospholipase A1 activity. The dopaminergic system also interacts directly with the renal kallikrein-kinin, prostaglandin and other neurohumoral systems. Aberrant renal dopamine production and/or dopamine receptor function have been reported in salt-dependent and low-renin forms of human primary hypertension as well as in genetic models of animal hypertension, including the SHR and Dahl SS rat. DA D1 or D3 receptor knockout mice have been shown to develop hypertension.

Abstract
The decreased natriuretic action of dopamine in the young has been attributed to decreased generation of cAMP by the activated renal D(1)-like receptor. However, sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE) 3 activity in renal brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV) can be modulated independent of cytoplasmic second messengers. We therefore studied D(1)-like receptor regulation of NHE activity in BBMVs in 2-, 4-, and 12-wk-old (adult) rats. Basal NHE activity was least in 2-wk-old compared with 4- and 12-wk-old rats. D(1)-like agonist (SKF-81297) inhibition of NHE activity was also least in 2-wk-old (-1 +/- 9%, n = 3) compared with 4 (-15 +/- 5%, n = 6)- and 12 (-65 +/- 4%, n = 6)-wk-old rats. The decreased response to the D(1)-like agonist in BBMV was not caused by decreased D(1) receptors or NHE3 expression in the young. G(s)alpha, which inhibits NHE3 activity by itself, coimmunoprecipitated with NHE3 to the same extent in 2-wk-old and adult rats. G(s)alpha function was also not impaired in the young because guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) decreased NHE activity to a similar extent in 4-wk-old and adult rats. Galpha(i-3) protein expression in BBMV also did not change with age. In contrast, Gbeta expression and the amount of Gbeta that coimmunoprecipitated with NHE3 in BBMV was greatest in 2-wk-old rats and decreased with age. Gbeta common antibodies did not affect D(1)-like agonist inhibition of NHE activity in adult rats (8%) but markedly increased it (48%)in 4-wk-old rats. We conclude that the decreased inhibitory effect of D(1)-like receptors on NHE activity in BBMV in young rats is caused, in part, by the increased expression and activity of the G protein subunit Gbeta/gamma. The direct regulation of NHE activity by G protein subunits may be an important step in the maturation of renal tubular ion transport.

Abstract
The recruitment of G protein-coupled receptors from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane generally is believed to be a constitutive process. We show here by the use of both confocal microscopy and subcellular fractionation that, for at least one such receptor, this recruitment is regulated and not constitutive. Cells from a proximal tubular-like cell line, LLCPK1 cells, were incubated with either a D1 agonist, a dopamine precursor, or an inhibitor of dopamine metabolism to increase dopamine availability in the cell. Each of the three procedures led to a rapid translocation of dopamine D1 receptors from the cytosol to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase in proximal tubule cells is associated with increased endocytosis of its alpha and beta subunits into early and late endosomes via a clathrin vesicle-dependent pathway. In this report we evaluated intracellular signals that could trigger this mechanism, specifically the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K), the activation of which initiates vesicular trafficking and targeting of proteins to specific cell compartments. DA stimulated PI 3-K activity in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and this effect was markedly blunted by wortmannin and LY 294002. Endocytosis of the Na+,K+-ATPase alpha subunit in response to DA was also inhibited in dose-dependent manner by wortmannin and LY 294002. Activation of PI 3-K generally occurs by association with tyrosine kinase receptors. However, in this study immunoprecipitation with a phosphotyrosine antibody did not reveal PI 3-K activity. DA-stimulated endocytosis of Na+, K+-ATPase alpha subunits required protein kinase C, and the ability of DA to stimulate PI 3-K was blocked by specific protein kinase C inhibitors. Activation of PI 3-K is mediated via the D1 receptor subtype and the sequential activation of phospholipase A2, arachidonic acid, and protein kinase C. The results indicate a key role for activation of PI 3-K in the endocytic sequence that leads to internalization of Na+,K+-ATPase alpha subunits in response to DA, and suggest a mechanism for the participation of protein kinase C in this process.

Abstract
Dopamine exerts important natriuretic and renal haemodynamic changes mediated through the interaction with dopamine D1-like and D2-like receptors. Dopamine-mediated natriuresis and renal vascular effects are less in younger than in older animals. The pharmacological profile and the density of dopamine D1-like and D2-like receptors were assessed in the kidney of rats ranging from 2 to 90 days of age by using radioligand binding assay techniques. [3H]SCH 23390 was used as ligand of dopamine D1-like receptors. [3H]Spiperone was used as a ligand of dopamine D2-like receptors. The dissociation constant (Kd) value of [3H]SCH 23390 binding was slightly decreased from the 21st day of age in comparison with animals of 2 and 7 days of age. The maximum density (Bmax) of [3H]SCH 23390 binding sites increased progressively until the 21st day of age and then plateauned. A similar trend was found for [3H]Spiperone binding sites. In [3H]Spiperone binding experiments, the Kd value was remarkably decreased from the 21st to the 90th day of life. Bmax value of [3H]Spiperone binding sites were similar in rats of 2 and 7 days of age and subsequently increased to values similar to those found in adult rats from the 21st day of life. The pharmacological profile of [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]Spiperone was similar in rats of the different ages investigated. These findings suggest that renal dopamine D1-like and D2-like receptors undergo maturational changes in the first 3 weeks after birth and then are stabilized at the adult levels. The possibility that the increased expression of renal dopamine receptors postnatally may be linked with the gradual appearance of dopamine-mediated renal responses after birth is discussed.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the natriuretic response to DA-1 receptor agonist fenoldopam is markedly potentiated by angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril. Since inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme can lead to decreased production of angiotensin-II and increased levels of kinins (e.g., bradykinin), it is likely that both of these mechanisms might be involved in this phenomenon. However, it is not known whether and to what degree the accumulation of kinins contributes to the overall potentiation of natriuretic response to fenoldopam seen during angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition. In the present study, we have examined the effect of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor enalaprilat and angiotensin-II receptor antagonist losartan as well as bradykinin-2 receptor antagonist HOE 140 on fenoldopam-induced natriuresis. Intravenous infusion of fenoldopam (1 microgram/kg/min) for 30 min produced significant increases in urine output and urinary sodium excretion without causing any changes in glomerular filtration rate, renal blood flow and mean arterial blood pressure, a phenomenon suggestive of a direct tubular site of action. In animals treated with either the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor enalaprilat or angiotensin-II receptor antagonist losartan, the diuretic and natriuretic effects of fenoldopam were potentiated to a similar degree. Whereas no significant changes in glomerular filtration rate occurred when fenoldopam alone was given to control rats, in animals treated with either enalaprilat or losartan, fenoldopam produced a modest but significant increase in glomerular filtration rate. In a separate group of animals, the effects of bradykinin-2 receptor antagonist HOE 140 on potentiation of fenoldopam-induced natriuresis by enalaprilat was examined.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. Administration of cyclosporine A (CsA; 50 mg kg-1 day-1, s.c.) for 14 days produced an increase in both systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure by 60 and 25 mmHg, respectively. The urinary excretion of dopamine, DOPAC and HVA was reduced from day 5-6 of CsA administration onwards (dopamine from 19 to 46%, DOPAC from 16 to 48%; HVA from 18 to 42%). In vehicle-treated rats, the urinary excretion of dopamine and DOPAC increased (from 7 to 60%) from day 5 onwards; by contrast, the urinary excretion of HVA was reduced (from 27 to 60%) during the second week. 2. No significant difference was observed between the Vmax and Km values of renal aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AAAD) in rats treated with CsA for 7 and 14 days or with vehicle. 3. Km and Vmax of monoamine oxidase types A and B did not differ significantly between rats treated with CsA for 7 and 14 days or with vehicle. 4. Maximal catechol-O-methyltransferase activity (Vmax) in homogenates of renal tissues obtained from rats treated with CsA for 7 or 14 days was significantly higher than that in vehicle-treated rats; Km (22.3 +/- 1.5 microM) values for COMT did not differ between the three groups of rats. 5. The accumulation of newly-formed dopamine and DOPAC in cortical tissues of rats treated with CsA for 14 days was three to four times higher than in controls. The outflow of both dopamine and DOPAC declined progressively with time and reflected the amine and amine metabolite tissue contents. No significant difference was observed between the DOPAC/dopamine ratios in the perifusate of renal tissues obtained from CsA- and vehicle-treated rats. In addition, no significant differences were observed in k values or in the slope of decline of both DA and DOPAC between experiments performed with CsA and vehicle-treated animals. 6. The Vmax for the saturable component of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) uptake in renal tubules from rats treated with CsA was twice that of vehicle-treated animals. Km in CsA- and vehicle-treated rats did not differ. 7. The decrease in the urinary excretion of sodium and an increase in blood pressure during CsA treatment was accompanied by a reduction in daily urinary excretion of dopamine. This appears to result from a reduction in the amount of L-DOPA made available to the kidney and does not involve changes in tubular AAAD, the availability of dopamine to leave the renal cells and dopamine metabolism. The enhanced ability of the renal tissues of CsA-treated animals to synthesize dopamine, when exogenous L-DOPA is provided, results from an enhanced activity of the uptake process of L-DOPA in renal tubular cells.

Abstract
1. In this study the renal selectivity of dopamine and its prodrugs L-dopa and gludopa, with respect to their effects on regional blood flow, vascular resistance and central haemodynamics was investigated in normal rats and in rats with glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF). 2. In normal, anaesthetized rats, dopamine as well as its prodrugs caused a dose-dependent reduction of vascular resistance in the kidney (RR), mesentery (MR) and hindquarters (HQR) (dose range: dopamine: 0.1-5 mumol kg-1 h-1; L-dopa and gludopa: 1-200 mumol kg-1 h-1). Blood pressure and heart rate were affected at the highest dose only. 3. Administration of glycerol induced a preferential renal vasoconstriction; renal blood flow (-60%) and vascular resistance (+190%) were significantly more affected than MR (+40%) and HQR (+60%). This was only ameliorated by a low rate (10 mumol kg-1 h-1) infusion of gludopa: the glycerol-induced reduction of renal flow and increase in RR were significantly attenuated. A high dose of gludopa (100 mumol kg-1 h-1) or any dose of L-dopa or dopamine did not induce this beneficial effect. The glycerol-induced increase in MR and HQR was not attenuated by any of the treatments used. 4. The results indicate that gludopa is not renally selective at a pharmacodynamic level in normal, anaesthetized rats. Contrary to this, a low dose of gludopa does cause a renal selective vasodilatation and reduction of RR in rats with glycerol-induced ARF. This difference could be explained by a difference in renal vascular tone between normal rats and glycerol-induced ARF rats. A high dose ofgludopa does not cause these renal-selective effects: renal resistance and renal flow are at the same level as following glycerol and saline. This is probably due to the systemic effects of the released dopamine.

Abstract
The present study investigated the contribution of adrenergic beta 1-receptor stimulation to the cardiovascular and renal effects of low-dose dopamine in eight normal, water-loaded humans. Metoprolol (100 mg) or placebo was administered orally at 08.00 h in a randomized, double-blind fashion on two different days. Renal clearance studies were performed during a 1 h baseline period, two 1 h periods with dopamine infusion (3 micrograms kg-1 min-1), and a 1 h recovery period. Cardiac output was measured by an ultrasonic Doppler method, and lithium clearance (CLLi) was used to estimate proximal tubular outflow. Baseline values of heart rate, systolic pressure and mean arterial pressure decreased with metoprolol compared with placebo, but cardiac output, effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were not significantly changed. Metoprolol significantly decreased baseline CLLi and sodium clearance (CLNa) by 19% (P < 0.01) and 34% (P < 0.01), respectively. Metoprolol blunted the dopamine-induced increases in heart rate and systolic pressure, but cardiac output increased to the same extent on both study days by 26% (placebo, P < 0.05) and by 31% (metoprolol, P < 0.01), respectively. With and without metoprolol, dopamine did not significantly change GFR, and the percentage increases in ERPF were similar on the two study days (40% (P < 0.001) and 42% (P < 0.001), respectively). Dopamine increased CLLi and CLNa by 31% (P < 0.01) and 114% (P < 0.01), respectively, with placebo, and by 36% (P < 0.01) and 114% (P < 0.01), respectively, with metoprolol. Values during infusion remained significantly lower with metoprolol compared with placebo.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The selective dopamine1 (D1) receptor agonists SK&F 82526 (fenoldopam) and A68930 and the mixed D1/D2 agonist SK&F 85174 were tested for their ability to stimulate adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) accumulation in the porcine renal epithelial cell line, LLC-PK1. SK&F 82526 and SK&F 85174 were potent stimulators of cyclic AMP accumulation (EC50s 21.4 and 14.5 nM, respectively), but only partial agonists (intrinsic activities 31% and 46% of dopamine respectively). In contrast, A68930 was a potent, full agonist (EC50 12.7 nM, intrinsic activity 102% of dopamine). The stimulatory effects of A68930 and dopamine on cyclic AMP accumulation were not additive, and the stimulation of cyclic AMP accumulation by A68930 was blocked by the D1-selective antagonist, SCH 23390. These properties of A68930 suggest that it may be a useful D1-selective agonist to study renal D1 receptor mechanisms in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
We have reported that dopamine (DA) inhibits Na-K-ATPase activity in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) by stimulating the DA1 receptor, and the present study was designed to evaluate the mechanism of this effect. Short-term exposure (15-30 min) of microdissected rat CCD to DA, a DA1 agonist (fenoldopam), vasopressin (AVP), forskolin, or dibutyryl cAMP (dBcAMP), which increase cAMP content by different mechanisms, strongly (approximately 60%) inhibited Na-K-ATPase activity. 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine, an inhibitor of adenylate cyclase, completely blocked Na-K-ATPase inhibition by DA or fenoldopam, and IP20, an inhibitor peptide of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA), abolished the Na:K pump effect of all the cAMP agonists listed above. To verify whether the mechanism of pump inhibition by agents that increase cell cAMP involves phospholipase A2 (PLA2), we used mepacrine, a PLA2 inhibitor, which also abolished Na-K-ATPase inhibition by DA or fenoldopam, as well as by AVP, forskolin, or dBcAMP. Arachidonic acid (10(-7) - 10(-4) M) inhibited Na-K-ATPase activity in dose-dependent fashion. Corticosterone, which induces lipomodulin, a PLA2 inhibitor protein inactivated by PKA, equally abolished the pump effects of DA, fenoldopam, forskolin, and dBcAMP, suggesting that lipomodulin might act between PKA and PLA2 in cAMP-dependent pump regulation. We conclude that dopamine inhibits Na-K-ATPase activity in the CCD through a DA1 receptor-mediated cAMP-PKA pathway that involves the stimulation of PLA2 and arachidonic acid release, possibly mediated by inactivation of lipomodulin. This pathway is shared by other agonists that increase cell cAMP and thus stimulate PKA activity.

Abstract
1. The present study has examined the influence of alpha-human atrial natriuretic peptide (alpha-hANP) on the synthesis of dopamine and its deamination into 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) in rat kidney slices loaded with exogenous L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA). 2. alpha-hANP (3.3 and 330 nM) was found to produce a marked reduction (63-78% reduction) in the time-dependent accumulation of newly-formed dopamine and of its deaminated metabolite DOPAC in kidney slices loaded with 10 microM L-DOPA. alpha-hANP (330 nM) was also found to decrease the accumulation of newly-formed dopamine (45-66% reduction) and DOPAC (38-61% reduction) in experiments in which increasing concentrations (1-100 microM) of L-DOPA were used. This inhibitory effect was found to be potentiated by zaprinast (M&B 22,948; 10 microM), a guanosine cyclic 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) phosphodiesterase inhibitor. Alone, zaprinast also decreased the accumulation of both dopamine (54-71% reduction) and DOPAC (73-92% reduction). 3. In kidney homogenates, alpha-hANP (330 nM) was found to affect neither the formation of dopamine nor its deamination to DOPAC. 4. Both alpha-hANP (330 nM) and zaprinast (10 microM) were found not to affect the formation of dopamine and DOPAC in kidney slices obtained from rats on a high salt diet during the previous 6 weeks. A similar situation was also found to occur when kidney slices obtained from 24-months old rats were used.5. The results obtained suggest that the inhibitory effect of alpha-hANP on the renal synthesis of dopamine is dependent on the activation of a membrane-operated mechanism, coupled to the enzyme guanylate cyclase, controlling the entry of L-DOPA into the cells.

Abstract
The natriuretic effect of dopamine-1 (DA-1) agonists is reduced in spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), partly because of defective DA-1 receptor-adenylate cyclase (AC) coupling in renal proximal convoluted tubules. To investigate this defective coupling, DA-1 dopamine receptors from renal proximal tubules were solubilized and reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles. The binding of DA-1-selective ligand [125I]SCH 23982 was specific and saturable, with no differences in receptor density or Kd between SHR and normotensive rats (Wistar-Kyoto rats; WKY). Competition experiments of the reconstituted DA-1 dopamine receptors in WKY with a DA-1-selective agonist, SKF R-38393, revealed the presence of high- (Kh = 350 +/- 209 nM) and low-affinity (Kl = 70,500 +/- 39,500 nM) binding sites. 100 microM Gpp(NH)p abolished the agonist high-affinity sites, converting them to a low-affinity state (Ki = 33,650 +/- 10,850 nM). In SHR, one affinity site was noted (Ki = 13,800 +/- 500) and was not modulated by Gpp(NH)p (Ki = 11,505 +/- 2,295). The absence of guanine nucleotide-sensitive agonist high-affinity sites may explain the defective DA-1/AC coupling mechanism in the SHR.

Abstract
Dopamine exerts numerous actions on the kidney but the precise location of its receptor subtypes along the nephron is unknown. Using a microassay we determined the specific binding of 125I-Sch 23982, a specific and selective dopamine-1 (DA1) receptor antagonist, to microdissected glomeruli and tubule segments. Binding of 125I-Sch 23982 in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) was time- and concentration dependent, saturable and reversible. The linear Scatchard plot of saturation experiments suggested binding to a single site with an apparent Kd of 16.7 nM and Bmax of 0.4 fmol.mm-1 in the PCT, and 6.2 nM and 0.1 fmol.mm-1 in the cortical collecting tubule (CCT). Mapping of DA1 binding sites along the nephron revealed their presence in each of the segments examined, albeit in markedly different concentrations: the highest specific binding was measured in PCT followed by the pars recta. Binding was less in the distal nephron, and least in the medullary and cortical thick ascending limb. Modest binding was also detected in glomeruli. In cortical collecting tubules competition studies with unlabeled dopamine and probes for DA1 (Sch 23390, fenoldopam), DA2 (domperidone, S-sulpiride), serotonergic (serotonin, ketanserin, mianserin), and alpha-(phentolamine) and beta-(propranolol) adrenergic receptors indicated a rank-order potency for displacement of 125I-Sch 23982 binding, consistent with labeling of DA1 receptors. Dopamine inhibited Na/K-ATPase both in PCT and CCT, an effect duplicated in the latter segment by the DA1 agonist fenoldopam, and blocked by the DA1 antagonist Sch23390.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) produces a natriuretic/diuretic response in the kidney by mechanisms that are still not well understood. There is some indication that DA2 receptors may be involved in mediating the effects of DA, but little is known regarding the nature of this receptor in the kidney. Autoradiographic localization of [3H]spiperone, a DA2 antagonist, indicated that high-density binding was restricted to inner medullary collecting ducts (IMCDs). [3H]Spiperone binding was saturable, high affinity (Kd, 17.2 +/- 1.65 nM), and high density (Bmax, 935 +/- 83 fmol per mg of protein). The photosensitive spiperone analogue N-(p-azido-m-[125I]iodophenethyl)spiperone labeled similar sized proteins of Mr = 120,000 in membranes prepared from the kidney inner medulla, striatum, and pituitary. However, the rank-order competition profile for the [3H]spiperone binding in the kidney inner medulla differed from the DA2 receptor in striatum and pituitary and, furthermore, RNA (Northern) blot analyses of kidney inner medullary RNA with brain DA2 receptor oligonucleotide probes were negative. Functionally, DA stimulated prostaglandin E2 production by IMCD cells, an effect that could be blocked by the DA2 antagonist domperidone. These results indicate that the kidney inner medulla expresses a functional DA receptor that may represent a newly identified DA receptor subtype (here designated DA2K). Moreover, these results suggest that the kidney inner medulla may be a significant site at which DA, either directly or indirectly, influences water and electrolyte excretion.

Abstract
Dopamine inhibits Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in several renal tubule segments and thereby regulates urinary Na+ excretion. We now show that a phosphopeptide of 31 amino acids, corresponding to residues 8-38 of the protein phosphatase inhibitor DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of Mr 32,000), mimics the inhibitory action of dopamine on Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in renal tubule cells from the ascending limb of the loop of Henle. The dephosphorylated form of the peptide is ineffective. The results indicate that dopamine acts through a protein phosphorylation pathway to regulate the activity of an ion pump. In addition, the data suggest that inhibition of protein phosphatase 1 by phophorylated DARPP-32 is a component of the mechanism by which dopamine regulates urinary Na+ excretion.

Abstract
In order to clone the D1 dopamine receptor linked to adenylyl cyclase activation, the polymerase chain reaction was used with highly degenerate primers to selectively amplify a cDNA sequence from NS20Y neuroblastoma cell mRNA. This amplification produced a cDNA fragment exhibiting considerable sequence homology to guanine nucleotide-binding (G)-protein-coupled receptors that have been cloned previously. To characterize this cDNA further, a full-length clone was isolated from a rat striatal library by using the cDNA fragment as a probe. Sequence analysis of this cDNA clone indicated that it is indeed a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor family and exhibits greatest homology with the previously cloned catecholamine receptors. Northern blot analysis of various neural tissues revealed a transcript of approximately 4 kb that was predominantly located in the striatum with lesser amounts in the cortex and retina. In contrast, no mRNA was detected in the cerebellum, hippocampus, olfactory bulb, mesencephalon, or pituitary. In situ hybridization analysis also revealed a high abundance of mRNA in the striatum as well as in the olfactory tubercle. To establish the identity of this cDNA, we performed transient expression experiments in COS-7 cells. [3H]SCH-23390, a D1-selective radioligand, exhibited specific, saturable binding only in cells that were transfected with this cDNA. Competition binding analysis with a variety of dopaminergic ligands demonstrated a D1 dopaminergic pharmacology. In addition, dopamine as well as other D1-selective agonists stimulated cAMP accumulation in transfected COS-7 cells. We conclude that we have cloned a cDNA encoding the D1 dopamine receptor linked to the activation of adenylyl cyclase activity.
