Osmolar regulation of endothelin-1 production by the inner medullary collecting duct.

ABSTRACT: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is an autocrine inhibitor of collecting duct (CD) Na(+) and water reabsorption. CD ET-1 production is increased by a high salt diet and is important in promoting a natriuretic response. The mechanisms by which a high salt diet enhances CD ET-1 are being uncovered. In particular, elevated tubule fluid flow, as occurs in salt loading, enhances CD ET-1 synthesis. Tubule fluid solute content and interstitial osmolality can also be altered by a high salt diet, however their effect on CD ET-1 alone, or in combination with flow, is poorly understood.ET-1 mRNA production by a mouse inner medullary CD cell line (mIMCD3) in response to changing flow and/or osmolality was assessed.Flow or hyperosmolality (using NaCl, mannitol or urea) individually caused an ~2-fold increase in ET-1 mRNA, while flow and hyperosmolality together increased ET-1 mRNA by ~14 fold. The hyperosmolality effect alone and the synergistic effect of flow + hyperosmolality was inhibited by chelation of intracellular Ca(2+), however were not altered by blockade of downstream Ca(2+)-signaling pathways (calcineurin or NFATc), inhibition of cellular Ca(2+) entry channels (purinergic receptors or polycystin-2), or blockade of the epithelial Na(+) channel. Inhibition of NFAT5 with rottlerin or NFAT5 siRNA greatly reduced the stimulatory effect of osmolality alone and osmolality + flow on mIMCD3 ET-1 mRNA levels.Both flow and osmolality individually and synergistically stimulate mIMCD3 ET-1 mRNA content. These findings may be relevant to explaining high salt diet induction of CD ET-1 production.

Transcriptional profiling of native inner medullary collecting duct cells from rat kidney.

Project description:Vasopressin acts on the inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) in the kidney to regulate water and urea transport. To obtain a "parts list" of gene products expressed in the IMCD, we carried out mRNA profiling of freshly isolated rat IMCD cells using Affymetrix Rat 230 2.0 microarrays with approximately 31,000 features; 7,913 annotated transcripts were found to be expressed above background in the IMCD cells. We have created a new online database (the "IMCD Transcriptome Database;" http://dir.nhlbi.nih.gov/papers/lkem/imcdtr/) to make the results publicly accessible. Among the 30 transcripts with the greatest signals on the arrays were 3 water channels: aquaporin-2, aquaporin-3, and aquaporin-4, all of which have been reported to be targets for regulation by vasopressin. In addition, the transcript with the greatest signal among members of the solute carrier family of genes was the UT-A urea transporter (Slc14a2), which is also regulated by vasopressin. The V2 vasopressin receptor was strongly expressed, but the V1a and V1b vasopressin receptors did not produce signals above background. Among the 200 protein kinases expressed, the serum-glucocorticoid-regulated kinase (Sgk1) had the greatest signal intensity in the IMCD. WNK1 and WNK4 were also expressed in the IMCD with a relatively high signal intensity, as was protein kinase A (beta-catalytic subunit). In addition, a large number of transcripts corresponding to A kinase anchoring proteins and 14-3-3 proteins (phospho-S/T-binding proteins) were expressed. Altogether, the results combine with proteomics studies of the IMCD to provide a framework for modeling complex interaction networks responsible for vasopressin action in collecting duct cells.

Murine inner medullary collecting duct cells response to aldosterone

Project description:Murine inner medullary collecting duct cells were treated for 1 hour with vehicle (control) or aldosterone. Total RNA was isolated and used as template to generate the eventual cRNA target. The experiment was repeated a total of three times. Six cRNA samples, three control and three treated, were generated and used in a total of six hybridizations. The mineralocorticoid aldosterone is a major regulator of Na+ and acid-base balance and control of blood pressure. Although the long-term effects of aldosterone have been extensively studied, the early aldosterone-responsive genes remain largely unknown. Using DNA array technology, we have characterized changes in gene expression after 1 h of exposure to aldosterone in a mouse inner medullary collecting duct cell line, mIMCD-3. Results from three independent microarray experiments revealed that the expression of many transcripts was affected by aldosterone treatment. Northern blot analysis confirmed the upregulation of four distinct transcripts identified by the microarray analysis, namely, the serum and glucose-regulated kinase sgk, connective tissue growth factor, period homolog, and preproendothelin. Immunoblot analysis for preproendothelin demonstrated increased protein expression. Following the levels of the four transcripts over time showed that each had a unique pattern of expression, suggesting that the cellular response to aldosterone is complex. The results presented here represent a novel list of early aldosterone-responsive transcripts and provide new avenues for elucidating the mechanism of acute aldosterone action in the kidney.

Proteomic profiling of nuclear fractions from native renal inner medullary collecting duct cells.

Project description:The control of renal water excretion occurs in part by regulation of transcription in response to vasopressin in cells of the collecting duct. A systems biology-based approach to understanding transcriptional control in renal collecting duct cells depends on knowledge of what transcription factors and other regulatory proteins are present in the cells' nuclei. The goal of this article is to report comprehensive proteomic profiling of cellular fractions enriched in nuclear proteins from native inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells of the rat. Multidimensional separation procedures and state-of-the art protein mass spectrometry produced 18 GB of spectral data that allowed the high-stringency identification of 5,048 proteins in nuclear pellet (NP) and nuclear extract (NE) fractions of biochemically isolated rat IMCD cells (URL: https://helixweb.nih.gov/ESBL/Database/IMCD_Nucleus/). The analysis identified 369 transcription factor proteins out of the 1,371 transcription factors coded by the rat genome. The analysis added 1,511 proteins to the recognized proteome of rat IMCD cells, now amounting to 8,290 unique proteins. Analysis of samples treated with the vasopressin analog dDAVP (1 nM for 30 min) or its vehicle revealed 99 proteins in the NP fraction and 88 proteins in the NE fraction with significant changes in spectral counts (Fisher exact test, P < 0.005). Among those altered by vasopressin were seven distinct histone proteins, all of which showed decreased abundance in the NP fraction, consistent with a possible effect of vasopressin to induce chromatin remodeling. The results provide a data resource for future studies of vasopressin-mediated transcriptional regulation in the renal collecting duct.

Identification of UT-A1- and AQP2-interacting proteins in rat inner medullary collecting duct.

Project description:The urea channel UT-A1 and the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) mediate vasopressin-regulated transport in the renal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD). To identify the proteins that interact with UT-A1 and AQP2 in native rat IMCD cells, we carried out chemical cross-linking followed by detergent solubilization, immunoprecipitation, and LC-MS/MS analysis of the immunoprecipitated material. The analyses revealed 133 UT-A1-interacting proteins and 139 AQP2-interacting proteins, each identified in multiple replicates. Fifty-three proteins that were present in both the UT-A1 and the AQP2 interactomes can be considered as mediators of housekeeping interactions, likely common to all plasma membrane proteins. Among proteins unique to the UT-A1 list were those involved in posttranslational modifications: phosphorylation (protein kinases Cdc42bpb, Phkb, Camk2d, and Mtor), ubiquitylation/deubiquitylation (Uba1, Usp9x), and neddylation (Nae1 and Uba3). Among the proteins unique to the AQP2 list were several Rab proteins (Rab1a, Rab2a, Rab5b, Rab5c, Rab7a, Rab11a, Rab11b, Rab14, Rab17) involved in membrane trafficking. UT-A1 was found to interact with UT-A3, although quantitative proteomics revealed that most UT-A1 molecules in the cell are not bound to UT-A3. In vitro incubation of UT-A1 peptides with the protein kinases identified in the UT-A1 interactome revealed that all except Mtor were capable of phosphorylating known sites in UT-A1. Overall, the UT-A1 and AQP2 interactomes provide a snapshot of a dynamic process in which UT-A1 and AQP2 are produced in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, processed through the Golgi apparatus, delivered to endosomes that move into and out of the plasma membrane, and are regulated in the plasma membrane.

Characterization of Inner Medullary Collecting Duct Plug Formation Among Idiopathic Calcium Oxalate Stone Formers.

Project description:ObjectiveTo study the prevalence of, risk factors for, and renal functional consequences of ductal plug formation in idiopathic calcium oxalate (iCaOx) stone formers (SF).Patients and methodsAccessible renal papillae were videotaped to determine the percent surface area (SA) occupied by plaque and ductal plug in a consecutive cohort of iCaOx SF undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy for stone removal.ResultsBetween 2009 and 2014, iCaOx SF comprised 96 of 240 enrolled patients. Of these, 41 (43%) had ductal plugs. Mean plaque SA did not differ between the low and high % plug groups (2.1% vs 3.4%, respectively). The amounts of mean % SA plaque and ductal plug were not strongly correlated (Spearman's ρ = 0.12, P = .3). Patients with >1% mean SA plug had a higher urinary pH (median 6.5 vs 6.0, P = .02) and elevated urinary hydroxyapatite supersaturation (median 5.4 vs 3.7 delta G; P = .04). Those with >1% plugging had more extensive ductal dilation (P = .002) compared to those with ≤1%. However, estimated glomerular filtration rate was the same (median 75.4 mL/min/1.73 m(2) vs 74.7 mL/min/1.73 m(2)). Number of prior stone events was associated with mean and maximum papillary SA occupied by plug (P < .05 for both), but not plaque (P = .3 and p = .5, respectively).ConclusionWithin a cohort of iCaOx SF, macroscopic plaque and ductal plugs often coexist. Intraluminal features known to favor calcium phosphate crystallization appear to play a role in plug formation. The pathogenic significance of these plugs remains to be established, although their extent appears to correlate with stone burden.

MicroRNA regulation of endothelin-1 mRNA in renal collecting duct cells.

Project description:Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in control of Edn1 mRNA in several tissues. Here we examined the role of miRNA action on Edn1 mRNA expression in renal distal collecting duct cells.A microarray study was conducted to provide a comprehensive assessment of miRNAs present in a murine inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD-3) cell line. The experiment was designed as a comparison between mIMCD-3 cells grown in the presence and absence of aldosterone. Argonaute (Ago) immunoprecipitation experiments were used to investigate binding of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC) to Edn1 mRNA.Thirty-four miRNAs were detected in very high abundance in mIMCD-3 cells, and a large number of others were present at lower levels. The microarray experiments were validated by quantitative PCR analysis of selected miRNAs. The microarray data, in combination with in silico examination of the Edn1 3' UTR provided a panel of candidate miRNAs that could act upon the Edn1 expression. Edn1 mRNA was co-immunoprecipitated with an Argonaute protein antibody, and this interaction was blocked by anti-miR-709 oligonucleotides.These results define the miRNA landscape of the mIMCD-3 cell line. Moreover, Edn1 was shown to interact with Argonaute protein suggesting that it is a target of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC).

Adenosine activates a2b receptors and enhances chloride secretion in kidney inner medullary collecting duct cells.

Project description:In the kidney, defects in the regulation of urine salt excretion can result in extracellular fluid volume expansion, leading to salt-sensitive hypertension. Previous studies have demonstrated that, when rats are maintained on a high sodium chloride (NaCl) diet, adenosine production increases in the renal medulla with parallel changes in adenosine receptor expression. These studies suggest that adenosine signaling in the kidney can respond to high NaCl loading; however, the functional consequences of these changes in adenosine signaling are not clear. We used the immortalized cell line mIMCD-K2, a murine model system for the renal inner medullary collecting duct, to study the direct effects of adenosine on NaCl transport across the inner medullary collecting duct epithelium with an Ussing chamber system. When epithelial Na(+) channels were inhibited, the addition of adenosine to the apical side of mIMCD-K2 cell sheets stimulated short-circuit current in a dose-dependent manner. This increase in short-circuit current was inhibited by a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator Cl(-) channel inhibitor. Pharmacological studies with a panel of adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists demonstrated that adenosine activates apical A2b adenosine receptors to enhance the short-circuit current. Furthermore, adenosine application to mIMCD-K2 cell sheets increased intracellular cAMP, whereas inhibition of protein kinase A completely blocked the adenosine response. Together, our findings indicate that adenosine stimulates Cl(-) secretion through the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator in mIMCD-K2 cells by activating apical A2b receptors and signaling through cAMP/protein kinase A. We propose that this adenosine receptor pathway may provide one mechanism for enhancing urine NaCl excretion in the setting of high dietary NaCl intake.

Large scale protein identification in intracellular aquaporin-2 vesicles from renal inner medullary collecting duct.

Project description:Vasopressin acts on renal collecting duct cells to stimulate translocation of aquaporin-2 (AQP2)-containing membrane vesicles from throughout the cytoplasm to the apical region. The vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane to increase water permeability. To identify the intracellular membrane compartments that contain AQP2, we carried out LC-MS/MS-based proteomic analysis of immunoisolated AQP2-containing intracellular vesicles from rat inner medullary collecting duct. Immunogold electron microscopy and immunoblotting confirmed heavy AQP2 labeling of immunoisolated vesicles. Vesicle proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE followed by in-gel trypsin digestion in consecutive gel slices and identification by LC-MS/MS. Identification of Rab GTPases 4, 5, 18, and 21 (associated with early endosomes); Rab7 (late endosomes); and Rab11 and Rab25 (recycling endosomes) indicate that a substantial fraction of intracellular AQP2 is present in endosomal compartments. In addition, several endosome-associated SNARE proteins were identified including syntaxin-7, syntaxin-12, syntaxin-13, Vti1a, vesicle-associated membrane protein 2, and vesicle-associated membrane protein 3. Rab3 was not found, however, either by mass spectrometry or immunoblotting, suggesting a relative lack of AQP2 in secretory vesicles. Additionally, we identified markers of the trans-Golgi network, components of the exocyst complex, and several motor proteins including myosin 1C, non-muscle myosins IIA and IIB, myosin VI, and myosin IXB. Beyond this, identification of multiple endoplasmic reticulum-resident proteins and ribosomal proteins indicated that a substantial fraction of intracellular AQP2 is present in rough endoplasmic reticulum. These results show that AQP2-containing vesicles are heterogeneous and that intracellular AQP2 resides chiefly in endosomes, trans-Golgi network, and rough endoplasmic reticulum.
