In the mammalian kidney the fine control of Na+ reabsorption takes place in collecting duct principal cells where basolateral Na,K-ATPase provides the driving force for vectorial Na+ transport. In the cortical collecting duct (CCD), a rise in intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) was shown to increase Na,K-ATPase activity and the number of ouabain binding sites, but the mechanism responsible for this event has not yet been elucidated. A rise in [Na+]i caused by incubation with the Na+ ionophore nystatin, increased Na,K-ATPase activity and cell surface expression to the same extent in isolated rat CCD. In cultured mouse mpkCCDcl4 collecting duct cells, increasing [Na+]i either by cell membrane permeabilization with amphotericin B or nystatin, or by incubating cells in a K+-free medium, also increased Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression. The [Na+]i-dependent increase in Na,K-ATPase cell-surface expression was prevented by PKA inhibitors H89 and PKI. Moreover, the effects of [Na+]i and cAMP were not additive. However, [Na+]i-dependent activation of PKA was not associated with an increase in cellular cAMP but was prevented by inhibiting the proteasome. These findings suggest that Na,K-ATPase may be recruited to the cell membrane following an increase in [Na+]i through cAMP-independent PKA activation that is itself dependent on proteasomal activity.

Cyclic AMP (cAMP) stimulates the transport of Na+ and Na,K-ATPase activity in the renal cortical collecting duct (CCD). The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism whereby cAMP stimulates the Na,K-ATPase activity in microdissected rat CCDs and cultured mouse mpkCCDc14 collecting duct cells. db-cAMP (10−3 M) stimulated by 2-fold the activity of Na,K-ATPase from rat CCDs as well as the ouabain-sensitive component of 86Rb+ uptake by rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured mouse CCD cells (1.5-fold). Pretreatment of rat CCDs with saponin increased the total Na,K-ATPase activity without further stimulation by db-cAMP. Western blotting performed after a biotinylation procedure revealed that db-cAMP increased the amount of Na,K-ATPase at the cell surface in both intact rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured cells (1.3-fold), and that this increase was not related to changes in Na,K-ATPase internalization. Brefeldin A and low temperature (20°C) prevented both the db-cAMP-dependent increase in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase in both intact rat CCDs and cultured cells. Pretreatment with the intracellular Ca2+chelator bis-(o-aminophenoxy)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid also blunted the increment in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase caused by db-cAMP. In conclusion, these results strongly suggest that the cAMP-dependent stimulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in CCD results from the translocation of active pump units from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane.

Adjustments in renal K+ excretion constitute a central mechanism for K+ homeostasis. The renal outer medullary potassium (ROMK) channel accounts for the major K+ secretory route in collecting ducts during basal conditions. Activation of the angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor (AT1R) by Ang II is known to inhibit ROMK activity under the setting of K+ dietary restriction, underscoring the role of the AT1R in K+ conservation. The present study aimed to investigate whether an AT1R binding partner, the AT1R-associated protein (ATRAP), impacts Ang II-mediated ROMK regulation in collecting duct cells and, if so, to gain insight into the potential underlying mechanisms. To this end, we overexpressed either ATRAP or β-galactosidase (LacZ; used as a control), in M-1 cells, a model line of cortical collecting duct cells. We then assessed ROMK channel activity by employing a novel fluorescence-based microplate assay. Experiments were performed in the presence of 10−10 M Ang II or vehicle for 40 min. We observed that Ang II-induced a significant inhibition of ROMK in LacZ, but not in ATRAP-overexpressed M-1 cells. Inhibition of ROMK-mediated K+ secretion by Ang II was accompanied by lower ROMK cell surface expression. Conversely, Ang II did not affect the ROMK-cell surface abundance in M-1 cells transfected with ATRAP. Additionally, diminished response to Ang II in M-1 cells overexpressing ATRAP was accompanied by decreased c-Src phosphorylation at the tyrosine 416. Unexpectedly, reduced phospho-c-Src levels were also found in M-1 cells, overexpressing ATRAP treated with vehicle, suggesting that ATRAP can also downregulate this kinase independently of Ang II-AT1R activation. Collectively, our data support that ATRAP attenuates inhibition of ROMK by Ang II in collecting duct cells, presumably by reducing c-Src activation and blocking ROMK internalization. The potential role of ATRAP in K+ homeostasis and/or disorders awaits further investigation.

The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) plays an important role in controlling Na+ homeostasis, extracellular fluid volume, and blood pressure. Copper metabolism Murr1 domain-containing protein 1 (COMMD1) interacts with ENaC and downregulates ENaC. COMMD1 belongs to the COMMD family consisting of COMMD1–10, and all COMMD family members share a C-terminal COMM domain. Here, we report that COMMD2–10 also interacts with ENaC, and COMMD3 and COMMD9 were selected for further study. Amiloride-sensitive current in mammalian epithelia expressing ENaC was significantly reduced by COMMD3 or COMMD9, and ENaC expression at the cell surface was significantly decreased in the presence of COMMD3 or COMMD9. COMMD3 and COMMD9 retained their ability to reduce current when COMMD1 was knocked down. COMMD3 and COMMD9 were widely expressed in kidney and were colocalized with ENaC in renal collecting duct cells. These data suggest that COMMD3 and COMMD9 may be endogenous regulators of ENaC to regulate Na+ transport through altering ENaC cell surface expression.

The peptide hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) plays a critical role in regulating salt and water transport in the mammalian kidney. Recent studies have also demonstrated that AVP can promote cell survival in neuronal cells through V1 receptors. The current study addresses whether AVP can inhibit apoptosis in kidney collecting duct cells via V2 receptors and also explores the downstream signaling pathways regulating this phenomenon. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labeling analysis and caspase cleavage assays demonstrated that 1-desamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) inhibited apoptosis induced by various agents (staurosporine, actinomycin D, and cycloheximide) in cultured mouse cortical collecting duct cells (mpkCCD). Incubation with dDAVP also inhibited apoptosis induced by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway inhibitor LY294002, suggesting that the antiapoptotic effects of dDAVP are largely independent of PI3K signaling. The V2 receptor antagonist SR121463 completely abolished the antiapoptotic effects of dDAVP. In addition, incubation with 8-cpt-cAMP, a cell-permeable analog of cAMP, reproduced the antiapoptotic effects of dDAVP. Both dDAVP and 8-cpt-cAMP increased phosphorylation of proapoptotic Bcl-2 family members Bad and Bok. Bad phosphorylation at Ser-112 and Ser-155 is known to inhibit its proapoptotic activity. Preincubation with H89 blocked dDAVP-induced phosphorylation of both Bad and Bok, suggesting dependence on protein kinase A (PKA). This study provides evidence that AVP can inhibit apoptosis through the V2 receptor and downstream cAMP-mediated pathways in mammalian kidney. The antiapoptotic action of AVP may be relevant to a number of physiological and pathophysiological conditions including osmotic tolerance in the inner medulla, escape from AVP-induced antidiuresis, and polycystic kidney disease.

Aldosterone controls extracellular volume and blood pressure by regulating Na+reabsorption, in particular by epithelia of the distal nephron. A main regulatory site of this transcellular transport is the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) that mediates luminal Na+influx. The Na,K-ATPase (Na+pump) that coordinately extrudes Na+across the basolateral membrane is known to be regulated by short term aldosterone as well. We now show that in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) from adrenalectomized rats, the increase in Na,K-ATPase activity (approximately 3-fold in 3 h), induced by a single aldosterone injection, can be fully accounted by the increase in Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression (+ 497 ± 35%). The short term aldosterone action was further investigated in cultured mouse collecting duct principal cells mpkCCDcl4. Within 2 h, maximal Na,K-ATPase function assessed by Na+pump current (Ip) measurements and Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression were increased by 20–50%. Aldosterone did not modify the Na+dependence of the Na+pumps and induced transcription- and translation-dependent actions on pump surface expression and current independently of ENaC-mediated Na+influx. In summary, short term aldosterone directly increases the cell surface expression of pre-existing Na+pumps in kidney CCD target cells. Thus, aldosterone controls Na+reabsorption in the short term not only by regulating the apical cell surface expression of ENaC (Loffing, J., Zecevic, M., Feraille, E., Kaissling, B., Asher, C., Rossier, B. C., Firestone, G. L., Pearce, D., and Verrey, F. (2001)Am. J. Physiol.280, F675–F682) but also by coordinately acting on the basolateral cell surface expression of the Na,K-ATPase.

Amiloride-sensitive whole cell currents have been reported in M-1 mouse cortical collecting duct cells (Korbmacher et al., J. Gen. Physiol. 102: 761-793, 1993). We have confirmed that amiloride inhibits the whole cell currents but not necessarily the measured whole cell currents. Anomalous responses were eliminated by removing external Na+ and/or introducing paraepithelial shunts. The amiloride-sensitive whole cell currents displayed Goldman rectification. The ionic selectivity sequence of the amiloride-sensitive conductance was Li+ > Na+ >> K+. Growth of M-1 cells on permeable supports increased the amiloride-sensitive whole cell permeability, compared with cells grown on plastic. Single amiloride-sensitive channels were observed, which conformed to the highly selective low-conductance amiloride-sensitive class [Na(5)] of epithelial Na+ channels. Hypotonic pretreatment markedly slowed run-down of channel activity. The gating of the M-1 Na+ channel in excised patches was complex. Open- and closed-state dwell-time distributions from patches that display one operative channel were best described with two or more exponential terms each. We conclude that 1) study of M-1 whole cell Na+ currents is facilitated by reducing the transepithelial potential to zero, 2) these M-1 currents reflect the operation of Na(5) channels, and 3) the Na+ channels display complex kinetics, involving > or = 2 open and > or = 2 closed states.
