Abstract
The neurotransmitter dopamine is a key factor in central nervous system (CNS) function, regulating many processes including reward, movement, and cognition. Dopamine also regulates critical functions in peripheral organs, such as blood pressure, renal activity, and intestinal motility. Beyond these functions, a growing body of evidence indicates that dopamine is an important immunoregulatory factor. Most types of immune cells express dopamine receptors and other dopaminergic proteins, and many immune cells take up, produce, store, and/or release dopamine, suggesting that dopaminergic immunomodulation is important for immune function. Targeting these pathways could be a promising avenue for the treatment of inflammation and disease, but despite increasing research in this area, data on the specific effects of dopamine on many immune cells and disease processes remain inconsistent and poorly understood. Therefore, this review integrates the current knowledge of the role of dopamine in immune cell function and inflammatory signaling across systems. We also discuss the current understanding of dopaminergic regulation of immune signaling in the CNS and peripheral tissues, highlighting the role of dopaminergic immunomodulation in diseases such as Parkinson's disease, several neuropsychiatric conditions, neurologic human immunodeficiency virus, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and others. Careful consideration is given to the influence of experimental design on results, and we note a number of areas in need of further research. Overall, this review integrates our knowledge of dopaminergic immunology at the cellular, tissue, and disease level and prompts the development of therapeutics and strategies targeted toward ameliorating disease through dopaminergic regulation of immunity. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Canonically, dopamine is recognized as a neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of movement, cognition, and reward. However, dopamine also acts as an immune modulator in the central nervous system and periphery. This review comprehensively assesses the current knowledge of dopaminergic immunomodulation and the role of dopamine in disease pathogenesis at the cellular and tissue level. This will provide broad access to this information across fields, identify areas in need of further investigation, and drive the development of dopaminergic therapeutic strategies.

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.

Abstract
Dopamine receptors have been extensively studied in the mammalian brain and spinal cord, as dopamine is a vital determinant of bodily movement, cognition, and overall behavior. Thus, dopamine receptor antagonist antipsychotic drugs are commonly used to treat multiple psychiatric disorders. Although less discussed, these receptors are also expressed in other peripheral organ systems, such as the kidneys, eyes, gastrointestinal tract, and cardiac tissue. Consequently, therapies for certain psychiatric disorders which target dopamine receptors could have unidentified consequences on certain functions of these peripheral tissues. The existence of an intrinsic dopaminergic system in the human heart remains controversial and debated within the literature. Therefore, this review focuses on literature related to dopamine receptors within cardiac tissue, specifically dopamine receptor 3 (D3R), and summarizes the current state of knowledge while highlighting areas of research which may be lacking. Additionally, recent findings regarding crosstalk between D3R and dopamine receptor 1 (D1R) are examined. This review discusses the novel concept of understanding the role of the loss of function of D3R may play in collagen accumulation and cardiac fibrosis, eventually leading to heart failure.

Abstract
Significance: The kidney plays an important role in the long-term control of blood pressure. Oxidative stress is one of the fundamental mechanisms responsible for the development of hypertension. Dopamine, via five subtypes of receptors, plays an important role in the control of blood pressure by various mechanisms, including the inhibition of oxidative stress. Recent Advances: Dopamine receptors exert their regulatory function to decrease the oxidative stress in the kidney and ultimately maintain normal sodium balance and blood pressure homeostasis. An aberration of this regulation may be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Critical Issues: Our present article reviews the important role of oxidative stress and intrarenal dopaminergic system in the regulation of blood pressure, summarizes the current knowledge on renal dopamine receptor-mediated antioxidation, including decreasing reactive oxygen species production, inhibiting pro-oxidant enzyme nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, and stimulating antioxidative enzymes, and also discusses its underlying mechanisms, including the increased activity of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 4 (GRK4) and abnormal trafficking of renal dopamine receptors in hypertensive status. Future Directions: Identifying the mechanisms of renal dopamine receptors in the regulation of oxidative stress and their contribution to the pathogenesis of hypertension remains an important research focus. Increased understanding of the role of reciprocal regulation between renal dopamine receptors and oxidative stress in the regulation of blood pressure may give us novel insights into the pathogenesis of hypertension and provide a new treatment strategy for hypertension.

Abstract
The dopaminergic system can adapt to the different physiological or pathological situations to which the kidneys are subjected throughout life, maintaining homeostasis of natriuresis, extracellular volume, and blood pressure levels. The role of renal dopamine receptor dysfunction is clearly established in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension. Its associations with other pathological states such as insulin resistance and redox balance have also been associated with dysfunction of the dopaminergic system. The different dopamine receptors (D1-D5) show a protective effect against hypertension and kidney disorders. It is essential to take into account the various interactions of the dopaminergic system with other elements, such as adrenergic receptors. The approach to therapeutic strategies for essential hypertension must go through the blocking of those elements that lead to renal vasoconstriction or the restoration of the normal functioning of dopamine receptors. D1-like receptors are fundamental in this role, and new therapeutic efforts should be directed to the restoration of their functioning in many patients. More studies will be needed to allow the development of drugs that can be targeted to renal dopamine receptors in the treatment of hypertension.

Abstract
The kidney is critical in the long-term regulation of blood pressure. Oxidative stress is one of the many factors that is accountable for the development of hypertension. The five dopamine receptor subtypes (D1R–D5R) have important roles in the regulation of blood pressure through several mechanisms, such as inhibition of oxidative stress. Dopamine receptors, including those expressed in the kidney, reduce oxidative stress by inhibiting the expression or action of receptors that increase oxidative stress. In addition, dopamine receptors stimulate the expression or action of receptors that decrease oxidative stress. This article examines the importance and relationship between the renal dopaminergic system and oxidative stress in the regulation of renal sodium handling and blood pressure. It discusses the current information on renal dopamine receptor-mediated antioxidative network, which includes the production of reactive oxygen species and abnormalities of renal dopamine receptors. Recognizing the mechanisms by which renal dopamine receptors regulate oxidative stress and their degree of influence on the pathogenesis of hypertension would further advance the understanding of the pathophysiology of hypertension.

Abstract
The contribution of the local angiotensin receptor system to neuroinflammation, impaired neurogenesis, and amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in hypertension is consistent with the remarkable neuroprotection provided by angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) independent of their blood pressure-lowering effect. Considering the causal relationship between hypertension and AD and that targeting cerebrovascular pathology with ARBs does not necessarily require their systemic effects, we tested intranasal losartan in the rat model of chronic hypertension (spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone rats, SHRSP). Intranasal losartan at a subdepressor dose decreased mortality, neuroinflammation, and perivascular content of Aβ by enhancing key players in its metabolism and clearance, including insulin-degrading enzyme, neprilysin, and transthyretin. Furthermore, this treatment improved neurologic deficits and increased brain IL-10 concentration, hippocampal cell survival, neurogenesis, and choroid plexus cell proliferation in SHRSP. Losartan (1 μM) also reduced LDH release from cultured astroglial cells in response to toxic glutamate concentrations. This effect was completely blunted by IL-10 antibodies. These findings suggest that intranasal ARB treatment is a neuroprotective, neurogenesis-inducing, and Aβ-decreasing strategy for the treatment of hypertensive stroke and cerebral amyloid angiopathy acting at least partly through the IL-10 pathway.

Abstract
Augmented intratubular angiotensin (ANG) II is a key determinant of enhanced distal Na+ reabsorption via activation of epithelial Na+ channels (ENaC) and other transporters, which leads to the development of high blood pressure (BP). In ANG II-induced hypertension, there is increased expression of the prorenin receptor (PRR) in the collecting duct (CD), which has been implicated in the stimulation of the sodium transporters and resultant hypertension. The impact of PRR deletion along the nephron on BP regulation and Na+ handling remains controversial. In the present study, we investigate the role of PRR in the regulation of renal function and BP by using a mouse model with specific deletion of PRR in the CD (CDPRR-KO). At basal conditions, CDPRR-KO mice had decreased renal function and lower systolic BP associated with higher fractional Na+ excretion and lower ANG II levels in urine. After 14 days of ANG II infusion (400 ng·kg-1·min-1), the increases in systolic BP and diastolic BP were mitigated in CDPRR-KO mice. CDPRR-KO mice had lower abundance of cleaved αENaC and γENaC, as well as lower ANG II and renin content in urine compared with wild-type mice. In isolated CD from CDPRR-KO mice, patch-clamp studies demonstrated that ANG II-dependent stimulation of ENaC activity was reduced because of fewer active channels and lower open probability. These data indicate that CD PRR contributes to renal function and BP responses during chronic ANG II infusion by enhancing renin activity, increasing ANG II, and activating ENaC in the distal nephron segments.

Abstract
It is recognized that dopamine promotes natriuresis by inhibiting multiple transporting systems in the proximal tubule. In contrast, less is known about the molecular targets of dopamine actions on water-electrolyte transport in the cortical collecting duct (CCD). Epithelial cells in the CCD are exposed to dopamine, which is synthesized locally or secreted from sympathetic nerve endings. Basolateral K(+) channels in the distal renal tubule are critical for K(+) recycling and controlling basolateral membrane potential to establish the driving force for Na(+) reabsorption. Here, we demonstrate that Kir4.1 and Kir5.1 are highly expressed in the mouse kidney cortex and are localized to the basolateral membrane of the CCD. Using patch-clamp electrophysiology in freshly isolated CCDs, we detected highly abundant 40-pS and scarce 20-pS single channel conductances, most likely representing Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 channels, respectively. Dopamine reversibly decreased the open probability of both channels, with a relatively greater action on the Kir4.1/5.1 heterodimer. This effect was mediated by D2-like but not D1-like dopamine receptors. PKC blockade abolished the inhibition of basolateral K(+) channels by dopamine. Importantly, dopamine significantly decreased the amplitude of Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 unitary currents. Consistently, dopamine induced an acute depolarization of basolateral membrane potential, as directly monitored using current-clamp mode in isolated CCDs. Therefore, we demonstrate that dopamine inhibits basolateral Kir4.1/5.1 and Kir4.1 channels in CCD cells via stimulation of D2-like receptors and subsequently PKC. This leads to depolarization of the basolateral membrane and a decreased driving force for Na(+) reabsorption in the distal renal tubule.

Abstract
The kidney plays a fundamental role in maintaining body salt and fluid balance and blood pressure homeostasis through the actions of its proximal and distal tubular segments of nephrons. However, proximal tubules are well recognized to exert a more prominent role than distal counterparts. Proximal tubules are responsible for reabsorbing approximately 65% of filtered load and most, if not all, of filtered amino acids, glucose, solutes, and low molecular weight proteins. Proximal tubules also play a key role in regulating acid-base balance by reabsorbing approximately 80% of filtered bicarbonate. The purpose of this review article is to provide a comprehensive overview of new insights and perspectives into current understanding of proximal tubules of nephrons, with an emphasis on the ultrastructure, molecular biology, cellular and integrative physiology, and the underlying signaling transduction mechanisms. The review is divided into three closely related sections. The first section focuses on the classification of nephrons and recent perspectives on the potential role of nephron numbers in human health and diseases. The second section reviews recent research on the structural and biochemical basis of proximal tubular function. The final section provides a comprehensive overview of new insights and perspectives in the physiological regulation of proximal tubular transport by vasoactive hormones. In the latter section, attention is particularly paid to new insights and perspectives learnt from recent cloning of transporters, development of transgenic animals with knockout or knockin of a particular gene of interest, and mapping of signaling pathways using microarrays and/or physiological proteomic approaches.

Abstract
D3 dopamine receptor (D3R)-deficient mice have renin-dependent hypertension associated with sodium retention, but the hypertension is mild. To determine whether any compensatory mechanisms in the kidney are involved in the regulation of blood pressure with disruption of Drd3, we measured the renal protein expression of all dopamine receptor subtypes (D1R, D2R, D4R, and D5R) in D3R homozygous (D3(-/-)) and heterozygous (D3(+/-)) knockout mice and their wild-type (D3(+/+)) littermates. The renal immunohistochemistry and protein expression of D5R were increased (n=5/group) in D3(-/-) mice; renal D4R protein expression was decreased, whereas renal protein expressions of D1R and D2R were similar in both groups. Renal D5R protein expression was also increased in D3(+/-) (n=5/group) relative to D3(+/+) mice, whereas D1R, D2R, and D4R protein expressions were similar in D3(+/-) and D3(+/+) mice. The increase in renal D5R protein expression was abolished when D3(-/-) mice were fed a high-salt diet. Treatment with the D1-like receptor antagonist, SCH23390, increased the blood pressure in anesthetized D3(-/-) but not D3(+/+) mice (n=4/group), suggesting that the renal upregulation of D5R may have minimized the hypertension in D3(-/-) mice. The renal D5R protein upregulation was not caused by increased transcription because renal mRNA expression of D5R was similar in D3(-/-) and D3(+/+) mice. Our findings suggest that the renal upregulation of D5R may have minimized the hypertension that developed in D3(-/-) mice.

Abstract
The intrarenal autocrine/paracrine dopamine (DA) system contributes to natriuresis in response to both acute and chronic Na(+) loads. While the acute DA effect is well described, how DA induces natriuresis chronically is not known. We used an animal and a cell culture model to study the chronic effect of DA on a principal renal Na(+) transporter, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger-3 (NHE3). Intraperitoneal injection of Gludopa in rats for 2 days elevated DA excretion and decreased total renal cortical and apical brush-border NHE3 antigen. Chronic treatment of an opossum renal proximal cell line with DA decreased NHE3 activity, cell surface and total cellular NHE3 antigen, but not NHE3 transcript. The decrease in NHE3 antigen was dose and time dependent with maximal inhibition at 16-24 h and half maximal effect at 3 × 10(-7) M. This is in contradistinction to the acute effect of DA on NHE3 (half maximal at 2 × 10(-6) M), which was not associated with changes in total cellular NHE3 protein. The DA-induced decrease in total NHE3 protein was associated with decrease in NHE3 translation and mediated by cis-sequences in the NHE3 5'-untranslated region. DA also decreased cell surface and total cellular NHE3 protein half-life. The DA-induced decrease in total cellular NHE3 was partially blocked by proteasome inhibition but not by lysosome inhibition, and DA increased ubiquitylation of total and surface NHE3. In summary, chronic DA inhibits NHE3 with mechanisms distinct from its acute action and involves decreased NHE3 translation and increased NHE3 degradation, which are novel mechanisms for NHE3 regulation.

Abstract
The role of dopamine receptors in blood pressure regulation is well established. Genetic ablation of both dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes (D1, D5) and D2-like receptor subtypes (D2, D3, D4) results in a hypertensive phenotype in mice. This review focuses on the dopamine D1-like receptor subtypes D1 and D5 (especially D1 receptors), as they play a major role in regulating sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Studies mostly describing the role of renal dopamine D1-like receptors are included, as the kidneys play a pivotal role in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and the long-term regulation of blood pressure. We also attempt to describe the interaction between D1-like receptors and other proteins, especially angiotensin II type 1 and type 2 receptors, which are involved in the maintenance of sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. Finally, we discuss a new concept of renal D1 receptor regulation in hypertension that involves oxidative stress mechanisms.

Abstract
Dopamine is an important regulator of systemic blood pressure via multiple mechanisms. It affects fluid and electrolyte balance by its actions on renal hemodynamics and epithelial ion and water transport and by regulation of hormones and humoral agents. The kidney synthesizes dopamine from circulating or filtered L-DOPA independently from innervation. The major determinants of the renal tubular synthesis/release of dopamine are probably sodium intake and intracellular sodium. Dopamine exerts its actions via two families of cell surface receptors, D1-like receptors comprising D1R and D5R, and D2-like receptors comprising D2R, D3R, and D4R, and by interactions with other G protein-coupled receptors. D1-like receptors are linked to vasodilation, while the effect of D2-like receptors on the vasculature is variable and probably dependent upon the state of nerve activity. Dopamine secreted into the tubular lumen acts mainly via D1-like receptors in an autocrine/paracrine manner to regulate ion transport in the proximal and distal nephron. These effects are mediated mainly by tubular mechanisms and augmented by hemodynamic mechanisms. The natriuretic effect of D1-like receptors is caused by inhibition of ion transport in the apical and basolateral membranes. D2-like receptors participate in the inhibition of ion transport during conditions of euvolemia and moderate volume expansion. Dopamine also controls ion transport and blood pressure by regulating the production of reactive oxygen species and the inflammatory response. Essential hypertension is associated with abnormalities in dopamine production, receptor number, and/or posttranslational modification.

Abstract
The assessment of salt sensitivity of blood pressure is difficult because of the lack of universal consensus on definition. Regardless of the variability in the definition of salt sensitivity, increased salt intake, independent of the actual level of blood pressure, is also a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and kidney disease. A modest reduction in salt intake results in an immediate decrease in blood pressure, with long-term beneficial consequences. However, some have suggested that dietary sodium restriction may not be beneficial to everyone. Thus, there is a need to distinguish salt-sensitive from salt-resistant individuals, but it has been difficult to do so with phenotypic studies. Therefore, there is a need to determine the genes that are involved in salt sensitivity. This review focuses on genes associated with salt sensitivity, with emphasis on the variants associated with salt sensitivity in humans that are not due to monogenic causes. Special emphasis is given to gene variants associated with salt sensitivity whose protein products interfere with cell function and increase blood pressure in transgenic mice.

Abstract
Dopamine produced by renal proximal tubules increases sodium excretion via a decrease in renal sodium reabsorption. Dopamine natriuresis is impaired in obese Zucker rats; however, the mechanism is not fully understood. To test the hypothesis that renal expression of one or more of the subtypes are altered in these rats, we measured whole kidney protein levels by immunoblotting of D1-like (D1R and D5R) and D2-like (D2R, D3R, and D4R) dopamine receptors in both male and female obese and lean Zucker rats. In obese males on 1% NaCl diet, D1R, D2R, D4R, and D5R were decreased, while D3R was increased, relative to lean rats. Under a 4% NaCl diet, D2R and D3R levels in obese rats were restored to lean levels. 4% NaCl diet reduced D5R in both body types, relative to 1% NaCl diet. Female rats had higher expression of D1R and D3R than did male; however, the sex difference for D1R was markedly blunted in obese rats. In obese rats, dietary candesartan (angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker) normalized downregulated D1R and D2R, but either decreased (D3R), did not affect (D4R), or further downregulated (D5R) the other subtypes. Candesartan also decreased D4R in lean rats. In summary, reduced renal protein levels of D1R, D2R, D4R, and D5R in obese Zucker rats could induce salt sensitivity and elevate blood pressure. Increased angiotensin II type 1 receptor activity may be mechanistically involved in the decreased expression of D1R and D2R in obese rats. Finally, reduced D1R and D3R in male rats may contribute to sex differences in blood pressure.

Abstract
The local renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the brain is a multitasking system controlling a plethora of essential functions such as neurogenic hypertension, baroreflexes, and sympathetic activity. Aside from its vasoactive actions, brain angiotensin II (AT-II) has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of cognitive decline, and beneficial effects of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) in Alzheimer (AD) and Parkinson diseases (PD) are suggested. However, the use of ARBs at antihypertensive dosages would lead to unwanted hypotensive reactions in AD patients. Here we treated the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse model of AD with the ARB losartan (10 mg/kg body weight) to determine whether blockade of the AT-II receptor subtype 1 (AT1-R) with intranasal losartan, using at a dosage far below its systemic antihypertensive dose, could maintain its neuroprotective effects independent of its systemic vasoactive action. Intranasal losartan treatment (10 mg/kg every other day for 2 months) of APP/PS1 mice decreased amyloid beta (Abeta) plaques 3.7-fold. Blood serum levels of interleukin-12 (IL-12)p40/p70, IL-1beta, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) were increased in the vehicle-treated APP/PS1 mice. Intranasal losartan not only decreased IL-12p40/p70, IL-1beta, and GM-CSF, but also increased IL-10, which suppresses inflammation. Furthermore, losartan markedly increased tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the striatum and locus coeruleus. In conclusion, losartan exerts direct neuroprotective effects via its Abeta-reducing and antiinflammatory effects in the central nervous system (CNS). Therefore, intranasal losartan and potentially other ARBs, at concentrations below their threshold for altering systemic blood pressure, offer a new approach for the treatment of AD.

Abstract
Essential hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart and kidney failure. Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport and by interacting with vasoactive hormones and humoral factors. However, the mechanisms leading to impaired dopamine receptor function in hypertension states are not clear. Compelling experimental evidence indicates a role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hypertension, and there are increasing pieces of evidence showing that in conditions associated with oxidative stress, which is present in hypertensive states, dopamine receptor effects, such as natriuresis, diuresis, and vasodilation, are impaired. The goal of this review is to present experimental evidence that has led to the conclusion that decreased dopamine receptor function increases ROS activity and vice versa. Decreased dopamine receptor function and increased ROS production, working in concert or independent of each other, contribute to the pathogenesis of essential hypertension.

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
BACKGROUND Because the gene expression patterns of nonobese hepatic steatosis in affected patients remain unclear, we sought to explore these patterns using an animal model of nonobese hepatic steatosis. METHODS We developed mice that conditionally express the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein regulated by the tetracycline transactivator (tTA). Microarray analyses and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction were performed using liver samples of both the double transgenic mice (DTM), which express both the HCV core and tTA, and single transgenic mice (STM), which express tTA alone, at 2 months of age. Functional categories of genes with altered expression were classified using gene ontology programs. Serum glucose, lipid levels, and systemic blood pressure were also measured. RESULTS Approximately 20-30% of hepatocytes from the DTM were steatotic. No significant differences were observed in the serum glucose, lipid content, or blood pressure levels between the DTM and STM. Gene expression analyses revealed Sterol-regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) pathway activation and dysregulation of the following genes involved in lipid metabolism: 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A synthase 1, Apolipoprotein AII, Apolipoprotein CI, acyl-CoA thioesterase I, and fatty acid binding protein 1; in mitochondrial function: solute carrier family 25 member 25 and cytochrome c oxidase subunit II; in immune reaction: complement component 3, lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus A, lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus C, lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus D, and lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus E. CONCLUSION Some genes of lipid metabolism, mitochondrial function, and immune reaction and the SREBP pathway are involved in HCV core-related, nonobese, modest hepatic steatosis.

Abstract
Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport and by interacting with vasoactive hormones/humoral factors, such as aldosterone, angiotensin, catecholamines, endothelin, oxytocin, prolactin pro-opiomelancortin, reactive oxygen species, renin, and vasopressin. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1) and D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3), and D(4)) subtypes based on their structure and pharmacology. In recent years, mice deficient in one or more of the five dopamine receptor subtypes have been generated, leading to a better understanding of the physiological role of each of the dopamine receptor subtypes. This review summarizes the results from studies of various dopamine receptor mutant mice on the role of individual dopamine receptor subtypes and their interactions with other G protein-coupled receptors in the regulation of blood pressure.
