A high-salt diet dissociates NO synthase-3 expression and NO production by the thick ascending limb.
NO produced by endothelial NO synthase (NOS3) decreases sodium transport by the thick ascending limb (THAL). We found previously that 7 days of high salt (HS) increased THAL-NOS3 expression but not NO production. NOS3 phosphorylation regulates enzyme activity. We hypothesized that HS acutely increases NOS3 expression and NO production, and, over time, changes in NOS3 phosphorylation dissociate ...
متن کاملExtracellular ATP stimulates NO production in rat thick ascending limb.
NO produced by NO synthase (NOS) 3 acts as an autacoid to regulate NaCl absorption in the thick ascending limb. ATP induces NO production by NOS 3 in endothelial cells. We hypothesized that extracellular ATP activates NOS in thick ascending limbs through P2 receptors. To test this, we measured intracellular NO production using the NO-selective fluorescent dye DAF-2 in suspensions of rat medulla...
متن کاملAngiotensin II-induced hypertension blunts thick ascending limb NO production by reducing NO synthase 3 expression and enhancing threonine 495 phosphorylation.
Thick ascending limbs reabsorb 30% of the filtered NaCl load. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by NO synthase 3 (NOS3) inhibits NaCl transport by this segment. In contrast, chronic angiotensin II (ANG II) infusion increases net thick ascending limb transport. NOS3 activity is regulated by changes in expression and phosphorylation at threonine 495 (T495) and serine 1177 (S1177), inhibitory and stimula...
متن کاملHigh-salt diet increases sensitivity to NO and eNOS expression but not NO production in THALs.
L-Arginine inhibits thick ascending limb (THAL) NaCl absorption by activating endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and increasing NO production. Inhibition of renal NO production combined with a high-salt diet produces hypertension, and the THAL has been implicated in salt-sensitive hypertension. We hypothesized that a high-salt diet enhances the inhibitory action of L-arginine on NaCl absorption by ...
متن کاملA high-salt diet stimulates thick ascending limb eNOS expression by raising medullary osmolality and increasing release of endothelin-1.
A high-salt diet increases renal endothelin (ET) production and thick ascending limb (THAL) endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression. ET stimulates THAL eNOS expression via ET(B) receptors. The tonicity of the renal medulla is highly variable, and hyperosmolality stimulates ET-1 synthesis by endothelial cells. We hypothesized that a high-salt diet raises medullary osmolality, increas...
