Abstract
Dopamine is important in the pathogenesis of hypertension because of abnormalities in receptor-mediated regulation of renal sodium transport. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1), D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), D(4)) subtypes, all of which are expressed in the kidney. Mice deficient in specific dopamine receptors have been generated to provide holistic assessment on the varying physiological roles of each receptor subtype. This review examines recent studies on these mutant mouse models and evaluates the impact of individual dopamine receptor subtypes on blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
Desensitization of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) includes receptor endocytosis. This phenomenon is suggested, at least for some receptors, to be associated with receptor resensitization. Here, we examined the role of receptor endocytosis for two different GPCR, the dopamine-1 (D1) receptor and the beta1-adrenoceptor (beta(1)-AR) in renal tissue. The functional role of receptor endocytosis was examined on Na+, K+ -ATPase activity in microdissected proximal tubules from rat kidney. The spatial regulation of endogenous D1 receptors and beta(1)-AR was examined by confocal microscopy techniques in LLCPK cells. Phenylarsine oxide (PAO) an endocytosis inhibitor, attenuated isoproterenol-induced decrease in Na+, K+ -ATPase activity but had no such effect on dopamine-induced decrease in Na+, K+ -ATPase activity. We have previously shown that isoproterenol sensitizes the renal dopamine system, by recruiting silent D1 receptors from the interior of the cell towards the plasma membrane. This effect was attenuated by PAO as well as by cytochalasin D while these substances had no effect on dopamine-induced D1 receptor recruitment. The beta(1)-AR was localized to the plasma membrane in control cells. Isoproterenol induced a rapid internalization of the beta(1)-AR; which was prevented by PAO. The results suggest that endocytosis of beta(1)-AR in renal proximal tubular cells is an important step in signal generation, while endocytosis of proximal tubular D1 receptor is not.

Abstract
Immature renal tubules are more tolerant to ischemia than mature renal tubules. Here we compared the developmental pattern for some cellular responses evoked by hypoxia and reoxygenation in renal proximal tubules from 10- and 40-day-old rats. Redistribution of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase from the plasma membrane was studied by confocal microscopy techniques in primary cultured renal proximal tubular cells. The developmental expression of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, micro-calpain and heme oxygenase-1 was measured by RT-PCR techniques in rat renal cortex. In response to hypoxia Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase redistribution from the plasma membrane was almost 2-fold increased in cells isolated from mature kidneys compared with cells isolated from immature kidneys. Reoxygenation resulted in a complete reestablishment of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in the plasma membrane in the immature but not in the mature cells. The dissociation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase from the plasma membrane was associated with a reduced activity and a reduced expression of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in the mature but not in the immature tubular cells. The expression of micro-calpain, a factor shown to induce ischemic injury to proximal tubular cells, was significantly lower in the immature compared with the mature kidney, whereas the expression of heme oxygenase-1, a factor shown to protect from renal ischemic injury, was significantly higher in the immature kidney. The results help to explain the increased tolerance of the immature kidney to injury caused by ischemia and reperfusion.

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
Locally formed arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites are important as modulators of many aspects of renal tubular function, including regulation of the activity of tubular Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase. Here we examined the ontogeny of the AA metabolic pathways regulating proximal convoluted tubular (PCT) Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in infant and adult rats. Eicosatetraynoic acid, an inhibitor of all AA-metabolizing pathways, abolished this effect. AA inhibition of PCT Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was blocked by the 12-lipoxygenase inhibitor baicalein in infant but not in adult rats and by the specific cytochrome P-450 fatty acid omega-hydroxylase inhibitor 17-octadecynoic acid in adult but not in infant rats. The lipoxygenase metabolite 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) and the cytochrome P-450 metabolite 20-HETE both inhibited PCT Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in a protein kinase C-dependent manner, but the effect was significantly more pronounced in infant PCT. Lipoxygenase mRNA was only detected in infant cortex. Expression of renal isoforms of cytochrome P-450 mRNA was more prominent in adult cortex. In summary, the AA metabolic pathways that modulated the activity of rat renal proximal tubular Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase are age dependent.

Abstract
Renal sodium re-absorption is a closely regulated process serving to maintain both extracellular fluid volume and arterial blood pressure. Proteins participating in sodium re-absorption and its regulation are therefore important candidate proteins whose genes may contain sequence variation contributing to the inherited tendency for increased arterial blood pressure (essential hypertension). Important insight has come from rare forms of single-gene hypertension in human subjects and from polygenic animal models of genetic hypertension. Both indicate the primacy of altered renal function in the genesis of hypertension, and suggest that genes contributing to the disease are members of the subset of genes expressed in the kidney. This review examines evidence for abnormalities in renal sodium re-absorption in hypertension and focuses on the proximal tubule as a site of relevant dysfunction. Identification of the proteins participating in renal sodium re-absorption and its regulation, particularly those involved in the renal pressure-natriuresis mechanism, will allow gene cloning and sequencing which in turn may lead to the identification of novel gene sequence variation participating in 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
Adenosine may affect the pattern of intrarenal blood flow during renal development. It provides an angiogenic stimulus for the growth of new blood vessels and may be involved in compensatory renal growth. It is therefore of interest to investigate the expression of adenosine receptor genes during postnatal renal development. In the present study this was carried out by measuring adenosine receptor mRNA levels in rats aged between 2 and 60 days. The order of abundance of adenosine receptor mRNA levels in 60-day-old rats was A2A > A2B > or = A1 > A3. A1 receptor mRNA levels showed only small changes with increasing age although, by contrast, A3 receptor mRNA increased markedly with age with levels at 60 days twenty-fold greater than at 2 days. A2A receptor mRNA levels declined during renal maturation with transcript numbers four- to fivefold that at 12-18 days compared with numbers at 60 days. By contrast to the A2A receptor, there were no significant changes in the renal levels of A2B receptor mRNA during kidney maturation. During postnatal renal maturation, the levels of mRNA for A2A and A3 adenosine receptor subtypes undergo marked changes which may be related to functional maturation, morphological development, or both.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of stimulation of vascular dopaminergic receptor subtype 1 (dopamine-1) receptors in the renal and mesenteric vascular beds of a neonatal model. DESIGN Prospective, unblinded, dose-response evaluation in an awake animal. SETTING University research laboratory. SUBJECTS Thirty newborn piglets, obtained and instrumented at 1 to 3 days of age and studied 48 hrs later. INTERVENTIONS Animals were chronically instrumented with transit time ultrasound flow probes around the left renal and superior mesenteric arteries. They were then intravenously infused with either dopamine (2 to 32 micrograms/kg/min) or fenoldopam (1 to 100 micrograms/kg/min), which is a selective agonist of the dopamine-1 receptor. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Blood pressure was only significantly increased by the highest infusion rate of dopamine (32 micrograms/kg/min), from a mean of 78 mm Hg at baseline to 87 mm Hg. Mesenteric and renal vascular resistances were unchanged by dopamine at any dose. Dopamine at 32 micrograms/kg/min decreased renal blood flow by 16.6 +/- 19.6 (SD) % and increased renal vascular resistance by 39.6 +/- 41.1% (p < .05). Mesenteric blood flow increased by 15% at 32 micrograms/kg/min (p < .05) but mesenteric vascular resistance was not affected by dopamine. Fenoldopam reduced blood pressure at infusion rates of 5, 10, and 100 micrograms/kg/min. Fenoldopam had no effect on renal vascular resistance at any dose. Fenoldopam reduced mesenteric vascular resistance at 5 micrograms/kg/min and at all higher doses. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate the absence of dopaminergic receptor-mediated vasodilation in the porcine neonatal renal vascular bed. In the mesenteric artery, dopamine-1 receptor-mediated vasodilation may be obtained. Dopamine itself, probably because of stimulation of other receptors, causes renal artery vasoconstriction and does not increase superior mesenteric artery blood flow.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of sodium excretion are incompletely known. Here we propose a general model for a bi-directional control of tubular sodium transporters by natriuretic and antinatriuretic factors. The model is based on experimental data from studies on the regulation of the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase, the enzyme that provides the electrochemical gradient necessary for tubular reabsorption of electrolytes and solutes in all tubular segments. Regulation is carried out to a large extent by autocrine and paracrine factors. Of particular interest are the two catecholamines, dopamine and norepinephrine. Dopamine is produced in proximal tubular cells and inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in several tubule segments. Renal dopamine availability is regulated by the degrading enzyme, catechol-O-methyl transferase. Renal sympathetic nerve endings contain norepinephrine and neuropeptide Y (NPY). Activation of alpha-adrenergic receptors increase and activation of beta-adrenergic receptors decrease Na+,K+-ATPase activity. alpha-Adrenergic stimulation increases the Na+ affinity of the enzyme and thereby the driving force for transcellular Na+ transport. NPY acts as a master hormone by synergizing the alpha- and antagonizing the beta-adrenergic effects. Dopamine and norepinephrine control Na+,K+-ATPase activity by exerting opposing forces on a common intracellular signaling system of second messengers, protein kinases and protein phosphatases, ultimately determining the phosphorylation state of Na+,K+-ATPase and thereby its activity. Important crossroads in this network are localized and functionally defined. Phosphorylation sites for protein kinase A and C have been identified and their functional significance has been verified.

Abstract
Na+,K+-ATPase in tubular cells plays a pivotal role for the regulation of renal sodium excretion. In adult rats the activity of this enzyme is inhibited by natriuretic hormones and stimulated by antinatriuretic hormones. Here we have examined the tubular response to alpha-adrenergic agonists and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in both infant and adult rats. In the adult kidney, alpha-adrenergic agonists and NPY stimulate Na+,K+-ATPase activity via Ca2+-dependent pathways. Oxymetazoline, a selective alpha-adrenergic agonist, and NPY failed to stimulate proximal tubular (PT) Na+,K+-ATPase activity in 10-d-old rats in doses of 10(-8) to 10(-5) M and 10(-8) to 10(-6) M, respectively, but when tubules were incubated simultaneously with both oxymetazoline 10(-8) M and NPY 5 x 10(-9) M, stimulation was observed in both 10- and 40-d-old rat PT. This effect was abolished by FK 506, an inhibitor of Ca2+ and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase 2B in both age groups. A23187, a calcium ionophore, stimulated Na+,K+-ATPase in both infant and adult PT, but 10-fold higher doses were required for the infant tubules. The effect of alpha-adrenergic agonists and NPY on free intracellular Ca2+ was studied in PT cells in primary culture. The Ca2+ response to each agent was less pronounced in infant than in adult cells. Preincubation with NPY, which increases Ca2+ influx into the cells, enhanced the response to the alpha-adrenergic agonist in both infant and adult cells. The results support the concept that the systems regulating renal tubular Na+, K+-ATPase and sodium metabolism undergo postnatal maturation.
