Abstract
Tissue ischemia and hypoxia caused by the abnormal proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the diabetic state is an important pathological basis for diabetic microangiopathy. Studies in recent years have shown that the chronic complications of diabetes are related to the decrease of endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in diabetic patients, and it has been proven that H2S can inhibit the proliferation of vascular SMCs (VSMCs). Our study showed that the endogenous H2S content and the expression of cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE), which is the key enzyme of H2S production, were decreased in arterial SMCs of diabetic mice. The expression of PCNA and Cyclin D1 was increased, and the expression of p21 was decreased in the diabetic state. After administration of dopamine 1-like receptors (DR1) agonist SKF38393 and exogenous H2S donor NaHS, the expression of CSE was increased and the change in proliferation-related proteins caused by diabetes was reversed. It was further verified by cell experiments that SKF38393 activated calmodulin (CaM) by increasing the intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) concentration, which activated the CSE/H2S pathway, enhancing the H2S content in vivo. We also found that SKF38393 and NaHS inhibited insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)/IGF-1R and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF)/EGFR, as well as their downstream PI3K/Akt, JAK2/STAT3 and ERK1/2 pathways. Taken together, our results suggest that DR1 activation up-regulates the CSE/H2S system by increasing Ca2+-CaM binding, which inhibits the IGF-1/IGF-1R and HB-EGF/EGFR pathways, thereby decreasing their downstream PI3K/Akt, JAK2/STAT3 and ERK1/2 pathways to achieve the effect of inhibiting HG-induced VSMCs proliferation.

Abstract
Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide. This devastating disease dramatically increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disorders. A hallmark metabolic abnormality in diabetes is hyperglycemia, which contributes to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular complications. These cardiovascular complications are, at least in part, related to hyperglycemia-induced molecular and cellular changes in the cells making up blood vessels. Whereas the mechanisms mediating endothelial dysfunction during hyperglycemia have been extensively examined, much less is known about how hyperglycemia impacts vascular smooth muscle function. Vascular smooth muscle function is exquisitely regulated by many ion channels, including several members of the potassium (K+) channel superfamily and voltage-gated L-type Ca2+ channels. Modulation of vascular smooth muscle ion channels function by hyperglycemia is emerging as a key contributor to vascular dysfunction in diabetes. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of how diabetic hyperglycemia modulates the activity of these ion channels in vascular smooth muscle. We examine underlying mechanisms, general properties, and physiological relevance in the context of myogenic tone and vascular reactivity.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS GLUT2 is the main renal glucose transporter upregulated by hyperglycaemia, when it becomes detectable at the brush border membrane (BBM). Since glucose-induced protein kinase C (PKC) activation in the kidney is linked to diabetic nephropathy, we investigated the effect of glycaemic status on the protein levels of PKC isoforms alpha, betaI, betaII, delta and epsilon in the proximal tubule, as well as the relationship between them and changes in GLUT2 production at the BBM. METHODS Plasma glucose concentrations were modulated in rats by treatment with nicotinamide 15 min prior to induction of diabetes with streptozotocin. Levels of GLUT2 protein and PKC isoforms in BBM were measured by western blotting. Additionally, the role of calcium signalling and PKC activation on facilitative glucose transport was examined by measuring glucose uptake in BBM vesicles prepared from proximal tubules that had been incubated either with thapsigargin, which increases cytosolic calcium, or with the PKC activator phorbol 12-myristate,13-acetate (PMA). RESULTS Thapsigargin and PMA enhanced GLUT-mediated glucose uptake, but had no effect on sodium-dependent glucose transport. Diabetes significantly increased the protein levels of GLUT2 and PKC-betaI at the BBM. Levels of GLUT2 and PKC-betaI correlated positively with plasma glucose concentration. Diabetes had no effect on BBM levels of alpha, betaII, delta or epsilon isoforms of PKC. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Enhanced GLUT2-mediated glucose transport across the proximal tubule BBM during diabetic hyperglycaemia is closely associated with increased PKC-betaI. Thus, altered levels of GLUT2 and PKC-betaI proteins in the BBM may be important factors in the pathogenic processes underlying diabetic renal injury.

Abstract
The protective mucus layer covers the entire surface of the gastrointestinal tract. The mucus layer also acts as a medium for molecule transport between the luminal contents and the enterocytes; therefore it has a major role in nutrient absorption. The main mucus layer component, mucin glycoproteins, is produced by mucous-secreting goblet cells. In chicken small intestine, functional development of goblet cells and enterocytes occurs in the late embryonic and immediate posthatch period. Presence of the nutrient is crucial for mucosal development. Feed deprivation immediately after hatch caused delayed mucosa development and perturbed mucin dynamics. Recent studies showed the intraamnionic nutrient supply (in-ovo feeding; IOF) accelerated mucosa functional development. In this study, the effect of IOF on the mucin mRNA expression and mucin content in the goblet cells was studied. The feeding solution containing carbohydrates was administered to the amnionic fluid of the Cobb embryos at d 17.5 of incubation. Samples from the jejunum were taken at d 17 of incubation (before IOF), and then 10 embryos from each group were sampled at 19 d of incubation, at hatch, and at d 3 posthatch. Following IOF, villus surface area increased at day of hatch and 3 d posthatch by 27 and 21%, respectively. In addition, the proportion of goblet cells containing acidic mucin increased 36 h after injection by 50% compared with the controls. The mucin mRNA expression increased gradually from d 17 of incubation to 3 d posthatch. Enhanced expression of the mucin mRNA was found at the day of hatch in chicks that received carbohydrate solution into the amnionic fluid in comparison with the control group. The results showed that providing the carbohydrates as an energy source to the late-term embryo had a trophic effect on the small intestine and enhanced goblet cell development.

Abstract
To clarify the interaction between arginase and nitric oxide (NO) production in the kidney with normal and high glucose levels, renal cortical slices from male Sprague-Dawley rats were incubated in Hank's solution containing various concentrations of L-norvaline (Nval; an arginase inhibitor), 500 U/mL superoxide dismutase, and either 5 mmol/L (normal) or 20 mmol/L (high) glucose (n = 5 per group). Incubation with Nval increased renal cortical NOX (nitrite + nitrate) production dose-dependently, indicating competition between arginase and NO synthase (NOS) for the substrate (L-arginine). In the basal condition without Nval, high glucose also increased NO(X) production to a rate 3 times that observed during incubation with normal glucose (P < .01). This effect of high glucose was not altered by Nval. Rather, the effects of high glucose and Nval were additive, indicating that the activity of NOS per se is enhanced by high glucose. Direct assay of arginase and NOS activities confirmed stimulation of both enzymes under the high glucose condition (P < .05, P < .01, v normal glucose, respectively). However, high glucose did not change the amount of L-arginine present in renal cortical slices. These data reveal that arginase competes with NOS for L-arginine in the renal cortex, and that high glucose increases the activity of both enzymes without affecting the amount of substrate. These results suggest that increased NOS activity, rather than altered substrate availability, may be the principal factor underlying increased NO synthesis in diabetic kidneys.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is known to play an important role in modulating renal transport functions. Thus, we investigated the effect of EGF on Ca(2+) uptake and its related signals in the primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells. EGF (50 ng/ml, 1 h) stimulated Ca(2+) uptake. Its effect was blocked by AG 1478 (an EGF receptor antagonist), genistein or herbimycin A (tyrosine kinase inhibitors). EGF increased intracellular cAMP level and SQ 22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), Rp-cAMP (a cAMP analogue), or PKI (a protein kinase A inhibitor) blocked the EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake. EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake was also blocked by neomycin or U-73122 (phospholipase C inhibitors), staurosporine, H-7, or bisindolylmaleimide I (protein kinase C inhibitors), nifedipine or methoxyverapamil (L-type Ca(2+) channel blockers). It increased IPs formation by 167 +/- 5% compare to control within 90 s. On the other hand, EGF increased [(3)H]-arachidonic acid release, which was significantly blocked by PKC inhibitors. In addition, PGE(2), one of cyclooxygenase metabolites, and 5,6-EET, one of cytochrome P-450 metabolites, increased Ca(2+) uptake. These results suggest that cAMP, PLC/PKC, and PLA(2) are involved in EGF-induced stimulation of Ca(2+) uptake.

Abstract
1. Calcium regulation has been reported to be associated with the development of diabetic nephropathy. Thus, changes in Ca2+ uptake induced by ATP, an important regulator of Ca2+ uptake, in the diabetic condition and related signal pathways were examined in primary cultures of rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTC). 2. Under low (5 mmol/L) glucose conditions, 10-4 mol/L ATP inhibited Ca2+ uptake early on (< 30 min), whereas Ca2+ uptake was stimulated at later time points (> 2 h). However, under high (25 mmol/L) glucose conditions, ATP stimulated both the early and late uptake of Ca2+. 3. The adenylate cyclase inhibitor SQ 22536, the protein kinase (PK) A inhibitor PKI amide 14-22, Rp-cAMP, staurosporine, bisindolylmaleimide I and H-7 (PKC inhibitors) blocked the change in ATP effect on Ca2+ uptake in the presence of 25 mmol/L glucose. However, none one of these drugs blocked the effect of ATP on Ca2+ uptake in the presence of 5 mmol/L. 4. At 25 mmol/L, glucose increased cAMP content and PKC activity, whereas ATP had no effect on either parameter. 5. In conclusion, high glucose levels alter ATP-induced Ca2+ uptake via cAMP and PKC pathways in the PTC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that renal renin-angiotensin system contributes to the development of diabetic nephropathy. However, the mechanism of angiotensin II receptor regulation in diabetic condition has not been elucidated. METHODS The effects of high glucose on [(3)H]-arachidonic acid (AA) release and angiotensin II (Ang II) binding and its related signal pathway were examined in primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). RESULTS High glucose down-regulated (125)I-Ang II binding from 12 hours and this response was sustained over 48 hours. Thus, the treatment of 25 mmol/L glucose for 48 hours was used for this study. High glucose-induced down-regulation of (125)I-Ang II binding was reversed by the removal of extracellular glucose, suggesting a role for glucose specificity. The high glucose-induced down-regulation of (125)I-Ang II binding was blocked by mepacrine, AACOCF3, phospholipase A2 inhibitors, indomethacin, ibuprofen, and cyclooxygenase inhibitors. Indeed, high glucose significantly increased prostaglandin E2 synthesis. In addition, the high glucose-induced AA release was blocked by PD 98059, a p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor. PD 98059 also prevented the down-regulation of (125)I-Ang II binding by high glucose, suggesting a role for p44/42 MAPK. Indeed, high glucose significantly increased p44/42 MAPK activity after the 15-minute time point. Protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor blocked high glucose-induced activation of p44/42 MAPK, increase of the [(3)H]-AA release, and down-regulation of 125I-Ang II binding. W-7 and KN-62 also blocked the high glucose-induced increase of [(3)H]-AA release and down-regulation of (125)I-Ang II binding. However, phospholipase A2 inhibitor did not block high glucose-induced activation of p44/42 MAPK. CONCLUSION High glucose down-regulates (125)I-Ang II binding via the PKC-MAPK-cPLA2 signal pathway.

Abstract
The renin-angiotensin system plays an important role in the development of diabetic nephropathy. However, the mechanism of ANG II receptor regulation in the renal proximal tubule in the diabetic condition has not been elucidated. Thus we investigated the signal pathways involved in high-glucose-induced downregulation of ANG II binding in primary cultured renal proximal tubule cells. Twenty-five millimolar glucose, but not mannitol and L-glucose, induced downregulation of the AT(1) receptor (AT(1)R) because of a significant decline in maximal binding with no significant change in the affinity constant. Twenty-five millimolar glucose also decreased AT(1)R mRNA and protein levels. The 25 mM glucose-induced increase in the formation of lipid peroxides was prevented by antioxidants, protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, or L-type calcium channel blockers. These agents also blocked 25 mM glucose-induced downregulation of (125)I-ANG II binding. In addition, 25 mM glucose increased transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 secretion, and anti-TGF-beta antibody significantly blocked 25 mM glucose-induced downregulation of (125)I-ANG II binding. Furthermore, the 25 mM glucose-induced increase in TGF-beta1 secretion was inhibited by PKC inhibitors, L-type calcium channel blockers, or antioxidants. In conclusion, high glucose may induce downregulation of (125)I-ANG II binding via a PKC-oxidative stress-TGF-beta signal cascade in primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells.

Abstract
It was reported that reactive oxygen metabolites play an important role in the pathogenesis of several renal diseases including glomerulonephritis, ischemia and acute tubular necrosis. However, the effect of oxidants and protective effect of sex steroid hormones on Na+/glucose cotransporter of renal proximal tubular cells is not yet elucidated. In the present study, we examined the effect of sex steroid hormones against tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced alteration of Na+/glucose cotransporter activity in primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). t-BHP inhibited alpha-methyl-D-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake in a dose-dependent manner. t-BHP-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake was due not to Km but to the decrease of Vmax. 0.5 mM t-BHP-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake was significantly blocked by estradiol-17beta, but not by progesterone and testosterone. This protective effect was not blocked by estrogen receptor antagonist or transcription and translation inhibitor. In addition, 0.5 mM t-BHP increased [3H]-arachidonic acid (AA) release and Ca2+ uptake. These effects of t-BHP were also significantly blocked by estradiol-17beta, but not by progesterone and testosterone. Protective efficacy of estradiol-17beta on t-BHP-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake is exhibited between antioxidants and iron chelators. In conclusion, estradiol-17beta, but not progesterone and testosterone, partially prevented t-BHP-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake through its antioxidant activity dependent upon phenol structures and inhibition of AA release and Ca2+ influx.

Abstract
Although a dysfunction of the calcium metabolism occurs in diabetes mellitus, alterations of Ca(2+) uptake induced by angiotensin II (ANG II) in renal proximal tubular cells (PTCs) grown in high-glucose medium are not fully elucidated. Thus, we examined whether high glucose concentrations can induce an alteration of the ANG II effect on the Ca(2+) uptake and its action mechanism in primary cultured renal PTCs. PTCs were exposed to different glucose concentrations (5-100 mM) and time intervals (0-48 h). There was a sustained increase of Ca(2+) uptake at glucose concentrations >15 mM. Thus, we selected 25 mM glucose and incubation for 48 h to maintain a hyperglycemic condition in vitro, unlike short-time regulatin. ANG II significantly inhibited the Ca(2+) uptake in a dose-dependent manner in a 5-mM glucose medium. In addition, downregulation of ANG II receptors appeared in a glucose dose dependent manner. However, PTCs treated with 25 mM glucose for 48 h, not 12 h, did not exhibit the inhibitory effect of ANG II (10(-7) M) on Ca(2+) uptake, although the inhibitory effect of ANG II on Ca(2+) uptake occurred in the presence of 25 mM mannitol or L-glucose. Staurosporine, bisindolylmaleimide I (protein kinase C, PKC, inhibitors), 12-o-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate pretreatment, SQ 22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor), and myristoylated protein kinase A inhibitor amide 14-22 (a protein kinase A inhibitor) blocked the 25-mM-glucose-induced alteration of ANG II effect on Ca(2+) uptake. These results suggest that both PKC and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) pathways are involved in the high-glucose-induced alteration of ANG II effect on Ca(2+) uptake. Indeed, 25 mM glucose increased PKC activity and cAMP contents. In conclusion, a high glucose concentration altered ANG II induced inhibition of Ca(2+) uptake via PKC and cAMP pathways in the PTCs.
