The role of pendrin in blood pressure regulation.
نویسنده
چکیده
Pendrin is a Na(+)-independent Cl(-)/HCO3(-) exchanger found in the apical regions of type B and non-A, non-B intercalated cells within the aldosterone-sensitive region of the nephron, i.e., the distal convoluted tubule (DCT), the connecting tubule (CNT), and the cortical collecting duct (CCD). Type B intercalated cells mediate Cl(-) absorption and HCO3(-) secretion primarily through pendrin-mediated Cl(-)/HCO3(-) exchange. This exchanger is upregulated with angiotensin II administration and in models of metabolic alkalosis, such as following administration of aldosterone or NaHCO3. In the absence of pendrin-mediated HCO3(-) secretion, an enhanced alkalosis is observed following aldosterone or NaHCO3 administration. However, probably of more significance is the role of pendrin in the pressor response to aldosterone. Pendrin mediates Cl(-) absorption and modulates aldosterone-induced Na(+) absorption mediated by the epithelial Na channel (ENaC). Pendrin changes ENaC activity by changing both channel open probability (Po) and surface density (N), at least partly by altering luminal HCO3(-) and ATP concentration. Thus aldosterone and angiotensin II stimulate pendrin expression and function, which stimulates ENaC activity, thereby contributing to the pressor response of these hormones. However, pendrin may modulate blood pressure partly through its extrarenal effects. For example, pendrin is expressed in the adrenal medulla, where it modulates catecholamine release. The increase in catecholamine release observed with pendrin gene ablation likely contributes to the increment in vascular contractile force observed in the pendrin null mouse. This review summarizes the signaling mechanisms that regulate pendrin abundance and function as well as the contribution of pendrin to distal nephron function.

Renal intercalated cells and blood pressure regulation
Type B and non-A, non-B intercalated cells are found within the connecting tubule and the cortical collecting duct. Of these cell types, type B intercalated cells are known to mediate Cl- absorption and HCO3- secretion largely through pendrin-dependent Cl-/HCO3- exchange. This exchange is stimulated by angiotensin II administration and is also stimulated in models of metabolic alkalosis, for in...
متن کاملThe multiple roles of pendrin in the kidney.
The [Formula: see text] exchanger pendrin (SLC26A4, PDS) is located on the apical membrane of B-intercalated cells in the kidney cortical collecting duct and the connecting tubules and mediates the secretion of bicarbonate and the reabsorption of chloride. Given its dual function of bicarbonate secretion and chloride reabsorption in the distal tubules, it was thought that pendrin plays importan...
متن کاملThe effect of glutaminergic system on cardiovascular regulation of rat
Introduction: The bed nucleus stria terminalis (BST) is a part of the limbic system, which plays a role in regulation of heart beat and blood circulation. It was recently shown that microinjection of L-glutamate in the BST elicits cardiovascular depressive, but the role of glutamate receptor subtypes has not been investigated yet. In this study, the role of glutamate receptor subgroups in regul...

It has been shown that nitric oxide is synthesized in the central nervous system as well as in vascular endothelial cells. Recently, it was reported that nitric oxide was involved in central cardiovascular regulation, baroreflex modulation, and involved in a reciprocal release with excitatory amino acids in the nucleus tractus solitarii of rats. The purpose of the present study was to investiga...
متن کاملHypokalemia and Pendrin Induction by Aldosterone.
Aldosterone plays an important role in regulating Na-Cl reabsorption and blood pressure. Epithelial Na+ channel, Na+-Cl- cotransporter, and Cl-/HCO3- exchanger pendrin are the major mediators of Na-Cl transport in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron. Existing evidence also suggests that plasma K+ concentration affects renal Na-Cl handling. In this study, we posited that hypokalemia modulat...
