Quantitative proteomic analysis of urinary exosomes from patients with primary aldosteronism that underwent fludrocortisone suppression test

ABSTRACT: The sodium chloride cotransporters (NCC) and the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) have been reported to be the main effectors of aldosterone in Na+ and Cl- reabsorption in the distal nephron and dietary K+ downregulates NCC. The Cl-/HCO3- exchanger pendrin has been revealed as a key role in maintaining extracellular fluid and electrolyte homeostasis by regulating Cl- reabsorption in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron working in tandem with ENaC and perhaps NCC. Pendrin-mediated Cl-/HCO3- exchange is stimulated in models of metabolic alkalosis (e.g. aldosterone administration or dietary NaHCO3 intake), and plasma K+ level is thought to negatively influence pendrin. In this study we used high-throughput proteomics and bioinformatics approaches to analyze urinary exosome contents isolated from patients undergoing fludrocortisone suppression test (FST, as a means of confirming or excluding primary aldosteronism [PA]) to examine the actions of administration of aldosterone analogs, NaCl and KCl orally on transmembrane proteins existing in urinary exosomes.
