Na/H Exchange Regulatory Factor 1 Deficient Mice Show Evidence of Oxidative Stress and Altered Cisplatin Pharmacokinetics. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:1036. [PMID: 34203453 PMCID: PMC8300832 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10071036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2021] [Revised: 06/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: One third of patients who receive cisplatin develop an acute kidney injury. We previously demonstrated the Na/H Exchange Regulatory Factor 1 (NHERF1) loss resulted in increased kidney enzyme activity of the pentose phosphate pathway and was associated with more severe cisplatin nephrotoxicity. We hypothesized that changes in proximal tubule biochemical pathways associated with NHERF1 loss alters renal metabolism of cisplatin or response to cisplatin, resulting in exacerbated nephrotoxicity. (2) Methods: 2-4 month-old male wild-type and NHERF1 knock out littermate mice were treated with either vehicle or cisplatin (20 mg/kg dose IP), with samples taken at either 4, 24, or 72 h. Kidney injury was determined by urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and histology. Glutathione metabolites were measured by HPLC and genes involved in glutathione synthesis were measured by qPCR. Kidney handling of cisplatin was assessed by a kidney cortex measurement of γ-glutamyl transferase activity, Western blot for γ-glutamyl transferase and cysteine S-conjugate beta lyase, and ICP-MS for platinum content. (3) Results: At 24 h knock out kidneys show evidence of greater tubular injury after cisplatin and exhibit a decreased reduced/oxidized glutathione ratio under baseline conditions in comparison to wild-type. KO kidneys fail to show an increase in γ-glutamyl transferase activity and experience a more rapid decline in tissue platinum when compared to wild-type. (4) Conclusions: Knock out kidneys show evidence of greater oxidative stress than wild-type accompanied by a greater degree of early injury in response to cisplatin. NHERF1 loss has no effect on the initial accumulation of cisplatin in the kidney cortex but is associated with an altered redox status which may alter the activity of enzymes involved in cisplatin metabolism.

Abstract
PTH and Vitamin D are two major regulators of mineral metabolism. They play critical roles in the maintenance of calcium and phosphate homeostasis as well as the development and maintenance of bone health. PTH and Vitamin D form a tightly controlled feedback cycle, PTH being a major stimulator of vitamin D synthesis in the kidney while vitamin D exerts negative feedback on PTH secretion. The major function of PTH and major physiologic regulator is circulating ionized calcium. The effects of PTH on gut, kidney, and bone serve to maintain serum calcium within a tight range. PTH has a reciprocal effect on phosphate metabolism. In contrast, vitamin D has a stimulatory effect on both calcium and phosphate homeostasis, playing a key role in providing adequate mineral for normal bone formation. Both hormones act in concert with the more recently discovered FGF23 and klotho, hormones involved predominantly in phosphate metabolism, which also participate in this closely knit feedback circuit. Of great interest are recent studies demonstrating effects of both PTH and vitamin D on the cardiovascular system. Hyperparathyroidism and vitamin D deficiency have been implicated in a variety of cardiovascular disorders including hypertension, atherosclerosis, vascular calcification, and kidney failure. Both hormones have direct effects on the endothelium, heart, and other vascular structures. How these effects of PTH and vitamin D interface with the regulation of bone formation are the subject of intense investigation.

Abstract
Cardiotonic steroids have been used for the past 200 years in the treatment of congestive heart failure. As specific inhibitors of membrane-bound Na(+)/K(+) ATPase, they enhance cardiac contractility through increasing myocardial cell calcium concentration in response to the resulting increase in intracellular Na concentration. The half-minimal concentrations of cardiotonic steroids required to inhibit Na(+)/K(+) ATPase range from nanomolar to micromolar concentrations. In contrast, the circulating levels of cardiotonic steroids under physiological conditions are in the low picomolar concentration range in healthy subjects, increasing to high picomolar levels under pathophysiological conditions including chronic kidney disease and heart failure. Little is known about the physiological function of low picomolar concentrations of cardiotonic steroids. Recent studies have indicated that physiological concentrations of cardiotonic steroids acutely stimulate the activity of Na(+)/K(+) ATPase and activate an intracellular signaling pathway that regulates a variety of intracellular functions including cell growth and hypertrophy. The effects of circulating cardiotonic steroids on renal salt handling and total body sodium homeostasis are unknown. This review will focus on the role of low picomolar concentrations of cardiotonic steroids in renal Na(+)/K(+) ATPase activity, cell signaling, and blood pressure regulation.

Abstract
Inflammation-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction can allow plasma proteins to cross the vascular wall, causing edema. Proteins may traverse the vascular wall through two main pathways, the paracellular and transcellular transport pathways. Paracellular transport involves changes in endothelial cell junction proteins, while transcellular transport involves caveolar transcytosis. Since both processes are associated with filamentous actin formation, the two pathways are interconnected. Therefore, it is difficult to differentiate the prevailing role of one or the other pathway during various pathologies causing an increase in vascular permeability. Using a newly developed dual-tracer probing method, we differentiated transcellular from paracellular transport during hyperfibrinogenemia (HFg), an increase in fibrinogen (Fg) content. Roles of cholesterol and sphingolipids in formation of functional caveolae were assessed using a cholesterol chelator, methyl-β-cyclodextrin, and the de novo sphingolipid synthesis inhibitor myriocin. Fg-induced formation of functional caveolae was defined by association and colocalization of Na+-K+-ATPase and plasmalemmal vesicle-associated protein-1 with use of Förster resonance energy transfer and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, respectively. HFg increased permeability of the endothelial cell layer mainly through the transcellular pathway. While MβCD blocked Fg-increased transcellular and paracellular transport, myriocin affected only transcellular transport. Less pial venular leakage of albumin was observed in myriocin-treated HFg mice. HFg induced greater formation of functional caveolae, as indicated by colocalization of Na+-K+-ATPase with plasmalemmal vesicle-associated protein-1 by Förster resonance energy transfer and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Our results suggest that elevated blood levels of Fg alter cerebrovascular permeability mainly by affecting caveolae-mediated transcytosis through modulation of de novo sphingolipid synthesis.

Abstract
Many inflammatory diseases such as stroke, hypertension, and diabetes are accompanied by increased blood content of fibrinogen (Fg). We showed that high content of undegraded Fg causes macromolecular leakage in pial vessels and increases endothelial cell (EC) layer permeability affecting paracellular pathway causing changes in tight junction proteins. In this study we tested the hypothesis that Fg-induced cerebrovascular permeability involves transcellular pathway through activation of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). Fg (total blood content 4 mg/ml) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS) were infused to wild-type (WT, C57BL/6J) and MMP-9 gene knockout (MMP9-−) mice. After measuring pial venular leakage brain cortical cryo-sections were probed with antibodies against caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and plasmalemma vesicle associated protein-1 (PV-1) to define the role of functional caveolae in vascular permeability. Possible formation of caveolae also was observed in mouse brain endothelial cells (MBECs) with total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Expression of Cav-1 and PV-1 was more in Fg-infused (155 ± 4 % and 85 ± 4 % of baseline, respectively) compared to PBS-infused (110 ± 3 % and 51 ± 6 % of baseline, respectively) WT animals. In MMP9-− mice, Fg induced greater expression of Cav-1 and PV-1 (72 ± 4 % and 46 ± 3 % of baseline, respectively) than PBS infusion (43 ± 2 % and 18 ± 3 % of baseline, respectively), but the effects were lesser than in WT mice. High content of Fg increased formation of functional caveolae in MBECs compared to that in cells treated with PBS. These data suggest that at an increased level Fg compromises cerebrovascular integrity by enhancing caveolae formation. Thus, at higher contents, Fg increases microvascular permeability altering the transcellular transport in addition to the paracellular transport.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence show that sodium/hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor 1 (NHERF-1) regulates the expression and activity of the type IIa sodium-dependent phosphate transporter (Npt2a) in renal proximal tubules. We have previously demonstrated that expression of a COOH-terminal ezrin binding domain-deficient NHERF-1 in opossum kidney (OK) cells decreased expression of Npt2a in apical membranes but did not affect responses to parathyroid hormone. We hypothesized that NHERF-1 regulates apical membrane expression of Npt2a in renal proximal tubule cells. To address this hypothesis, we compared regulation of Npt2a expression and function in NHERF-deficient OK cells (OK-H) and wild-type cells (OK-WT). In OK-H cells, phosphate uptake and expression of Npt2a protein in apical membranes were significantly lower than in OK-WT cells. Transient transfection of green fluorescent protein-tagged Npt2a cDNA into OK-H cells resulted in aberrant localization of an Npt2a fragment to the cytosol but not to the apical membrane. OK-H cells also exhibited a marked decrease in Npt2a mRNA expression. As demonstrated by luciferase assay, Npt2a promoter activity was significantly decreased in OK-H cells compared with that shown in OK-WT cells. Transfection of OK-H cells with human NHERF-1 restored Npt2a expression at both the protein and mRNA levels and regulation by parathyroid hormone. Expression of NHERF-1 constructs with mutations in the PDZ domains or the ezrin binding domain in OK-H cells suggested that the PDZ2 domain is critical for apical translocation of Npt2a and for expression at the mRNA level. Our data demonstrate for the first time that NHERF-1 regulates Npt2a transcription and membrane insertion.

Abstract
Ramadan fasting is a unique model of fasting in which Muslims the world over abstain from food and water from dawn to sunset for 1 month. We hypothesized that this model of prolonged intermittent fasting would result in specific adaptive alterations in rat kidney to keep a positive balance of metabolites and inorganic phosphate (Pi). The effect of Ramadan-type fasting was studied on enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism and brush border membrane (BBM) and BBM uptake of 32Pi in different renal tissue zones in the rat model. Rats were fasted (12 h) and then re-fed (12 h) daily for 30 d similar to human Ramadan fasting. Ramadan-type fasting resulted in increased serum Pi and phospholipids, whereas Pi clearance decreased. Serum creatinine and its clearance were not affected. Fasting caused a significant decrease in the activities of lactate and malate dehydrogenases, glucose-6-phosphatase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, both in the renal cortex and medulla. However, the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase profoundly increased but that of malic enzyme decreased. The activities of alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in BBM decreased, whereas transport of 32Pi significantly increased. The decrease in enzyme activities and increase in 32Pi transport were due to alterations of both maximal velocities and relative affinities. The results indicate that Ramadan-type fasting caused specific metabolic alterations with enhanced Pi conservation in different kidney tissues in a rat model used for Ramadan fasting in man.

Abstract
It was demonstrated that expression of murine sodium hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF-1) lacking the ezrin-binding domain blocks parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase in opossum kidney (OK) cells. The hypothesis that the NHERF-1 PDZ domains contribute to PTH regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase was tested by comparison of PTH regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase in wild-type OK (OK-WT) cells, NHERF-deficient OKH cells, OK-WT transfected with siRNA for NHERF (NHERF siRNA OK-WT), and OKH cells that were stably transfected with full-length NHERF-1 or constructs with mutated PDZ domains. OKH cells and NHERF siRNA OK-WT showed decreased expression of NHERF-1 but equivalent expression of ezrin and Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit when compared with OK-WT cells. PTH decreased Na+,K+-ATPase activity and stimulated phosphorylation of the Na+,K+-ATPase alpha1 in OK-WT cells but not in NHERF-deficient cells. Rubidium (86Rb) uptake was equivalent in OK-WT, OKH, and OKH cells that were transfected with all but the double PDZ domain mutants. PTH decreased 86Rb uptake significantly in OK-WT but not in OKH cells. PTH also significantly inhibited 86Rb uptake in OKH cells that were transfected with full-length NHERF-1 or NHERF-1 with mutated PDZ 2 but not in OKH cells that were transfected with mutated PDZ 1. Transfection with NHERF expressing both mutated PDZ domains resulted in diminished basal 86Rb uptake that was not inhibited further by PTH. PTH stimulated protein kinase Calpha activity and alpha1 subunit phosphorylation in OK-WT but not in NHERF-deficient cells. Transfection of OKH cells with NHERF constructs that contained an intact PDZ1 domain restored PTH-stimulated protein kinase Calpha activity and alpha1 subunit phosphorylation. These results demonstrate that NHERF-1 is necessary for PTH-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity and that the inhibition is mediated through the PDZ1, not PDZ2, domain.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibits Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity through protein kinase C- (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase- (ERK) dependent pathways and increases serine phosphorylation of the alpha(1)-subunit. To determine whether specific serine phosphorylation sites within the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit are involved in the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase responses to PTH, we examined the effect of PTH in opossum kidney cells stably transfected with wild type rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit (WT), serine 11 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S11A), or serine 18 to alanine mutant alpha(1)-subunit (S18A). PTH increased phosphorylation and endocytosis of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with WT and S18A rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits. PTH did not increase the level of phosphorylation or stimulate translocation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunits into clathrin-coated vesicles in cells transfected with the S11A mutant. PTH inhibited ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity (ouabain-sensitive ATP hydrolysis) in WT- and S18A-transfected opossum kidney cells but not in S11A-transfected cells. Pretreatment of the cells with the PKC inhibitors and ERK inhibitor blocked PTH inhibition of (86)Rb uptake, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation, and endocytosis in WT and S18A cells. Consistent with the notion that ERK phosphorylates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit, ERK was shown to be capable of causing phosphorylation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit immunoprecipitated from WT and S18A but not from S11A-transfected cells. These results suggest that PTH regulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase by PKC and ERK-dependent alpha(1)-subunit phosphorylation and that the phosphorylation requires the expression of a serine at the 11 position of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH), acting at least in part through a cAMP signaling pathway, regulates three important transporters in the renal proximal convoluted tubule, namely Na-H exchanger 3, Na-K ATPase, and type IIa sodium phosphate cotransporter (NaPi IIa). The regulation of Na-H exchanger 3 by protein kinase A requires a protein co-factor from the sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) family of proteins (NHERF-1 and NHERF-2). However, the role of NHERF in PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase and NaPi IIa has not been explored. For studying the role of NHERF-1 on PTH regulation of these transporters, wild-type mNHERF-1 (1-355) or mNHERF-1 (1-325) lacking the ezrin-binding domain were expressed in proximal tubule-derived opossum kidney cells. PTH inhibited Na-K ATPase activity in cells expressing wild-type NHERF-1 associated with increased serine phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of the transporter. By contrast, in cells expressing mNHERF (1-325), the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of Na-K ATPase was blunted and the activity of the transporter was stimulated in response to PTH. Basal sodium-dependent phosphate transport was lower in cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-325) as compared with cells expressing mNHERF-1 (1-355). Nonetheless, there were no differences in PTH-associated inhibition of the activity or the decrease in membrane expression of the NaPi IIa in any of the cell lines. These experiments document for the first time an association between NHERF-1 and PTH regulation of Na-K ATPase in epithelial cells. These experiments also suggest that the mechanism for retrieval of NaPi IIa transporters from the apical membrane in response to cAMP does not require NHERF.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone inhibits sodium-phosphate cotransport in proximal renal tubule cells through activation of several kinases. We tested the hypothesis that the activity of these kinases was coordinated by an A kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) by demonstrating that the type II sodium-phosphate cotransporter (NaPi-4) physically associated with an AKAP and that this association was necessary for regulation of phosphate transport by parathyroid hormone. Immunoprecipitation with anti-NaPi-4 antiserum and glutathione S-transferase pull-down with GST-NaPi-4 showed that NaPi-4 associated with AKAP79, protein kinase A catalytic and regulatory subunits, and the parathyroid hormone receptor in opossum kidney cells. When the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A was uncoupled from the AKAP by a competing peptide, parathyroid hormone lost the ability to inhibit phosphate transport. This result was confirmed by co-transfecting HEK293 cells with the sodium-phosphate cotransporter and wild type AKAP, a mutant AKAP79, or the empty vector. 8-Bromo-cAMP was able to inhibit phosphate transport in cells expressing the wild type AKAP79 but not empty vector or mutant AKAP79. We conclude that parathyroid hormone inhibits proximal renal tubule sodium-phosphate cotransport through a signaling complex dependent upon an AKAP.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and dopamine (DA) inhibit Na-K ATPase activity and sodium-phosphate cotransport in proximal tubular cells. We previously showed that PTH and DA inhibit phosphate transport in opossum kidney (OK) cells through different signaling pathways. Therefore, we hypothesized that PTH and DA also inhibit Na-K ATPase through divergent pathways. We measured PTH and DA inhibition of Na-K ATPase activity in the presence of inhibitors of signaling pathways. PTH and DA inhibited Na-K ATPase in a biphasic manner, the early inhibition through protein kinase C (PKC)- and phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2))-dependent pathways and the late inhibition through protein kinase A- and PLA(2)-dependent pathways. Inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation blocked early and late inhibition of Na-K ATPase by PTH but not by DA. Pertussis toxin blocked early and late inhibition by DA but not by PTH. Treatment with DA, but not PTH, resulted in an early downregulation of basolateral membrane expression of the alpha-subunit, whereas total cellular expression remained constant for both agonists. We conclude that PTH and DA regulate Na-K ATPase by different mechanisms through activation of divergent pathways.

Abstract
The antibody profile to various proteins of hepatitis C virus (HCV) was studied in 113 patients positive for HCV RNA in various disease statuses of hepatitis C (HC). A single peptide (E2/NS1, aa 413-436 of HCV polyprotein) chosen from a conserved region at the C-terminus of the hypervariable region (HVR) HVR1 of HCV was found to be sufficient for reliable diagnosis of the infection, even in the acute phase. Six hundred and one suspected HC cases and 200 voluntary blood donors were tested by this peptide. The sensitivity of detection of HCV antibodies by this peptide did not increase with addition of peptides from other HCV proteins. Our results clearly demonstrate that antibodies to HCV envelope proteins occur in a higher percentage of the infected population than those to other proteins. This emphasizes the necessity of using representative sequences from HCV envelope proteins in diagnostic immunoassays of this viral infection.

The effect of the reversible and relatively irreversible ischemia induced acute renal failure (ARF) in the activities of alkaline phosphatase (AlkPase) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGTase) after early (15-30 min) and prolonged (45-60 min) ischemia in the homogenates, and the brush-border membranes (BBM) from rat renal whole, superficial (SC), and juxtamedullary (JMC) cortices were studied. The enzyme activities declined progressively in proportion to the duration of ischemia. Early blood reflow of 15 min to the ischemic rats caused a further decrease in the enzyme activities. However, prolonged reflow (up to 120 min) resulted in partial reversal of the ischemic effect in the early but not in the prolonged ischemic rats. The decrease in the enzyme activities was due to the loss of membrane-bound enzyme components from the damaged BBM into the supernatant fraction as membrane-free enzymes. The activities of AlkPase and GGTase were significantly more decreased by the ischemia in the brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV)-JMC than in BBMV-SC. The rate of recovery due to reflow for AlkPase was greater in BBMV-SC than apparently for GGTase in BBMV-JMC in early ischemic (15-30 min) rats.
