Identification of a Novel Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2 Mutation (p.V183M) in a Chinese Family with Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus.

ABSTRACT: Loss of function of arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) may affect the recognition and binding of arginine vasopressin (AVP) which, in turn, may prevent the activation of Gs/adenylate cyclase and reduce the reabsorption of water by renal tubules and combined tubes. Finally, the organism may suffer from nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), a kind of kidney disorder featured by polyuria and polydipsia, due to a break of water homeostasis. In this study, we enrolled a Chinese family with polyuria and polydipsia. The proband presented abnormal fluid intake and excessive urine output. A water deprivation and AVP stimulation test further indicated that this patient had NDI. By sequencing known causative genes for diabetes insipidus, we identified a novel mutation in AVPR2 (c.547G>A; p.V183M) in the family. This mutation, located in a conserved site of AVPR2 and predicted to be disease-causing by informatics programs, was absent in our 200 controls and other public databases. Our study not only further confirms the clinical diagnosis, but also expands the spectrum of AVPR2 mutations and contributes to genetic diagnosis and counseling of patients with NDI.

Identification of a novel X-linked arginine-vasopressin receptor 2 mutation in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus: Case report and pedigree analysis.

Project description:IntroductionThe clinical and genetic characteristics of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) were described via assessing 2 cases of NDI patients from a Chinese family.Patient concernsTwo patients who manifest polyuria and polydipsia were admitted to hospital for definite diagnosis.DiagnosisWater deprivation-vasopressin tests showed that the patients may possess renal-origin diabetes insipidus. All the levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulation hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, prolactin, and growth hormone in both patients were normal. These results were certified that both patients possess a nephropathy-type diabetes insipidus. B-mode ultrasonography and urinalysis test demonstrated that the patient's diabetes insipidus is unlikely to originate from renal organic disease. Remarkably, by nucleotide sequencing, we found a novel mutation c.414_418del in arginine-vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) was related to the disease of NDI.InterventionsTwo patients were treated with oral hydrochlorothiazide and indomethacin. In addition, low salt diet and potassium supplementation throughout the patients' treatment.OutcomesThe clinical symptoms of 2 patients were significantly reduced after targeted therapy.ConclusionA mutation in AVPR2 was discovered to be associated with NID. It provides a new target for molecular diagnosis of NDI, enabling families to undergo genetic counseling and obtain prenatal diagnoses.

A novel mutation of the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 gene in a patient with congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

Project description:We have identified a novel mutation of the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene in a case of congenital X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). The patient was a 2-mo-old Japanese boy with persistent fever and failure to thrive. He was diagnosed as having congenital NDI by clinical and laboratory findings. Molecular analysis demonstrated that he was hemizygous for a G to C transversion in exon 2 of the AVPR2 gene which resulted in a glycine to arginine substitution (G107R) at the 107th codon of the first extracellular loop. His mother was heterozygous for the same mutation. We speculated that the G107R mutation would interfere with the binding capacity of the AVPR2, since G107R is located near F105 and R106, both of which are crucial for ligand binding. In cases of X-linked NDI, mutations in the AVPR2 gene are distributed widely. Thus, DNA analysis throughout the gene is of clinical value for the identification of female carriers, and it also gives precise information for genetic counseling.

Deletion of the V2 vasopressin receptor gene in two Chinese patients with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare X-linked inherited disorder characterized by the excretion of large volumes of diluted urine and caused by mutations in arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene. To investigate the mutation of AVPR2 gene in a Chinese family with congenital NDI, we screened AVPR2 gene in two NDI patients and eight family members by PCR amplification and direct sequencing. RESULTS: Five specific fragments, covering entire coding sequence and their flanking intronic sequences of AVPR2 gene, were not observed in both patients, while those fragments were all detected in the control subjects. Several different fragments around the AVPR2 locus were amplified step by step. It was revealed that a genomic fragment of 5,995-bp, which contained the entire AVPR2 gene and the last exon (exon 22) of the C1 gene, was deleted and a 3-bp (GAG) was inserted. Examination of the other family members showed that the mothers and the grandmother were carriers for this deletion. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that the two patients in a Chinese family suffering from congenital NDI had a 5,995-bp deletion and 3-bp (GAG) insertion at Xq28. The deletion contained the entire AVPR2 gene and exon 22 of the C1 gene.

P2Y12 Receptor Localizes in the Renal Collecting Duct and Its Blockade Augments Arginine Vasopressin Action and Alleviates Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus.

Project description:P2Y12 receptor (P2Y12-R) signaling is mediated through Gi, ultimately reducing cellular cAMP levels. Because cAMP is a central modulator of arginine vasopressin (AVP)-induced water transport in the renal collecting duct (CD), we hypothesized that if expressed in the CD, P2Y12-R may play a role in renal handling of water in health and in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. We found P2Y12-R mRNA expression in rat kidney, and immunolocalized its protein and aquaporin-2 (AQP2) in CD principal cells. Administration of clopidogrel bisulfate, an irreversible inhibitor of P2Y12-R, significantly increased urine concentration and AQP2 protein in the kidneys of Sprague-Dawley rats. Notably, clopidogrel did not alter urine concentration in Brattleboro rats that lack AVP. Clopidogrel administration also significantly ameliorated lithium-induced polyuria, improved urine concentrating ability and AQP2 protein abundance, and reversed the lithium-induced increase in free-water excretion, without decreasing blood or kidney tissue lithium levels. Clopidogrel administration also augmented the lithium-induced increase in urinary AVP excretion and suppressed the lithium-induced increase in urinary nitrates/nitrites (nitric oxide production) and 8-isoprostane (oxidative stress). Furthermore, selective blockade of P2Y12-R by the reversible antagonist PSB-0739 in primary cultures of rat inner medullary CD cells potentiated the expression of AQP2 and AQP3 mRNA, and cAMP production induced by dDAVP (desmopressin). In conclusion, pharmacologic blockade of renal P2Y12-R increases urinary concentrating ability by augmenting the effect of AVP on the kidney and ameliorates lithium-induced NDI by potentiating the action of AVP on the CD. This strategy may offer a novel and effective therapy for lithium-induced NDI.

Functional characterization of a loss-of-function mutant I324M of arginine vasopressin receptor 2 in X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

Project description:X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (X-linked NDI) is a rare inherited disease mainly caused by lost-of-function mutations in human AVPR2 gene encoding arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (V2R). Our focus of the current study is on exploration of the functional and biochemical properties of Ile324Met (I324M) mutation identified in a pedigree showing as typical recessive X-linked NDI. We demonstrated that I324M mutation interfered with the conformation of complex glycosylation of V2R. Moreover, almost all of the I324M-V2R failed to express on the cell surface due to being captured by the endoplasmic reticulum control system. We further examined the signaling activity of DDAVP-medicated cAMP and ERK1/2 pathways and the results revealed that the mutant receptor lost the ability in response to DDAVP stimulation contributed to the failure of accumulation of cAMP and phosphorylated ERK1/2. Based on the characteristics of molecular defects of I324M mutant, we selected two reagents (SR49059 and alvespimycin) to determine whether the functions of I324M-V2R can be restored and we found that both compounds can significantly "rescue" I324M mutation. Our findings may provide further insights for understanding the pathogenic mechanism of AVPR2 gene mutations and may offer some implications on development of promising treatments for patients with X-linked NDI.

Intracellular activation of vasopressin V2 receptor mutants in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus by nonpeptide agonists.

Project description:Binding of the peptide hormone vasopressin to its type-2 receptor (V2R) in kidney triggers a cAMP-mediated translocation of Aquaporin-2 water channels to the apical membrane, resulting in water reabsorption and thereby preventing dehydration. Mutations in the V2R gene lead to Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus (NDI), a disorder in which this process is disturbed, because the encoded, often intrinsically functional mutant V2 receptors are misfolded and retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Since plasma membrane expression is thought to be essential for V2R activation, cell permeable V2R antagonists have been used to induce maturation and rescue cell surface expression of V2R mutants, after which they need to be displaced by vasopressin for activation. Here, however, we show that 3 novel nonpeptide V2R agonists, but not vasopressin, activate NDI-causing V2R mutants at their intracellular location, without changing their maturation and at a sufficient level to induce the translocation of aquaporin-2 to the apical membrane. Moreover, in contrast to plasma membrane V2R, degradation of intracellular V2R mutants is not increased by their activation. Our data reveal that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) normally active at the plasma membrane can be activated intracellularly and that intracellular activation does not induce their degradation; the data also indicate that nonpeptide agonists constitute highly promising therapeutics for diseases caused by misfolded GPCRs in general, and NDI in particular.

Identification of Potential Pharmacoperones Capable of Rescuing the Functionality of Misfolded Vasopressin 2 Receptor Involved in Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus.

Project description:Pharmacoperones correct the folding of otherwise misfolded protein mutants, restoring function (i.e., providing "rescue") by correcting their trafficking. Currently, most pharmacoperones possess intrinsic antagonist activity because they were identified using methods initially aimed at discovering such functions. Here, we describe an ultra-high-throughput homogeneous cell-based assay with a cAMP detection system, a method specifically designed to identify pharmacoperones of the vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R), a GPCR that, when mutated, is associated with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Previously developed methods to identify compounds capable of altering cellular trafficking of V2R were modified and used to screen a 645,000 compound collection by measuring the ability of library compounds to rescue a mutant hV2R [L83Q], using a cell-based luminescent detection system. The campaign initially identified 3734 positive modulators of cAMP. The confirmation and counterscreen identified only 147 of the active compounds with an EC50 of ?5 µM. Of these, 83 were reconfirmed as active through independently obtained pure samples and were also inactive in a relevant counterscreen. Active and tractable compounds within this set can be categorized into three predominant structural clusters, described here, in the first report detailing the results of a large-scale pharmacoperone high-throughput screening campaign.

Valine-279 Deletion-Mutation on Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2 Causes Obstruction in G-Protein Binding Site: A Clinical Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus Case and Its Sub-Molecular Pathogenic Analysis.

Project description:Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) or aquaporin 2 genes, rendering collecting duct cells insensitive to the peptide hormone arginine vasopressin stimulation for water reabsorption. This study reports a first identified AVPR2 mutation in Taiwan and demonstrates our effort to understand the pathogenesis caused by applying computational structural analysis tools. The CNDI condition of an 8-month-old male patient was confirmed according to symptoms, family history, and DNA sequence analysis. The patient was identified to have a valine 279 deletion-mutation in the AVPR2 gene. Cellular experiments using mutant protein transfected cells revealed that mutated AVPR2 is expressed successfully in cells and localized on cell surfaces. We further analyzed the pathogenesis of the mutation at sub-molecular levels via long-term molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and structural analysis. The MD simulations showed while the structure of the extracellular ligand-binding domain remains unchanged, the mutation alters the direction of dynamic motion of AVPR2 transmembrane helix 6 toward the center of the G-protein binding site, obstructing the binding of G-protein, thus likely disabling downstream signaling. This study demonstrated that the computational approaches can be powerful tools for obtaining valuable information on the pathogenesis induced by mutations in G-protein-coupled receptors. These methods can also be helpful in providing clues on potential therapeutic strategies for CNDI.

Analysis of a novel AVPR2 mutation in a family with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

Project description:Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare X-linked recessive disorder associated with germ-line mutations of the arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptor type 2 (AVPR2) gene. Recent molecular studies have demonstrated that insensitivity of renal tubule cells to AVP is associated with AVPR2 mutations. We identified a novel deletion mutation at nucleotide position 302 (302delC), in a Korean NDI family, that results in a frameshift and a truncated receptor protein. To identify the mutant AVPR2 protein we developed an expression vector for the AVPR2 mutation by a PCR-based restriction fragment replacement strategy. COS-7 cells were transiently transfected with expression vectors for the wild-type and mutant genes, and we analyzed AVP-induced cyclic adenosine monophos-phate (cAMP) responses, and assessed the localization of AVPR2 receptors, in the transfected COS-7 cells. In the cells expressing the mutant gene, the maximum AVP-induced cAMP response was reduced and the truncated receptor proteins were retained within the cytoplasmic compartment. These results suggest that the novel frameshift AVPR2 (302delC) mutation is responsible for the AVP resistance in the family with congenital NDI.

Characterization of five novel vasopressin V2 receptor mutants causing nephrogenic diabetes insipidus reveals a role of tolvaptan for M272R-V2R mutation.

Project description:Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare tubulopathy characterized by urinary concentration defect due to renal resistance to vasopressin. Loss-of-function mutations of vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R) gene (AVPR2) is the most common cause of the disease. We have identified five novel mutations L86P, R113Q, C192S, M272R, and W323_I324insR from NDI-affected patients. Functional characterization of these mutants revealed that R113Q and C192S were normally localized at the basolateral membrane of polarized Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells and presented proper glycosylation maturation. On the other side, L86P, M272R, and W323_I324insR mutants were retained in endoplasmic reticulum and exhibited immature glycosylation and considerably reduced stability. All five mutants were resistant to administration of vasopressin analogues as evaluated by defective response in cAMP release. In order to rescue the function of the mutated V2R, we tested VX-809, sildenafil citrate, ibuprofen and tolvaptan in MDCK cells. Among these, tolvaptan was effective in rescuing the function of M272R mutation, by both allowing proper glycosylation maturation, membrane sorting and response to dDAVP. These results show an important proof of concept for the use of tolvaptan in patients affected by M272R mutation of V2R causing NDI.
