    Abstract Treatment with a sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor in patients with chronic kidney disease reduces the renal risk independent of changes in blood glucose concentrations and blood pressure. However, the precise mechanism responsible for this SGLT2 inhibitor-induced renoprotective effect is unclear. We have previously shown that SGLT2 inhibitors induce antihypertensive effects with decreased sympathetic nerve activity, which is associated with transient natriuresis. Furthermore, treatment with an SGLT2 inhibitor improves renal ischemia by producing vascular endothelial growth factor-a in the renal tubules. Other studies have suggested that ketone body production, changes in glomerular hemodynamics, and intrarenal metabolic changes and a reduction in oxidative stress due to decreased tubulointerstitial glucose levels may also be involved in the renoprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors. In this review, we summarize the mechanism responsible for the SGLT2 inhibitor-induced renoprotective effects, including our recent hypothesis regarding an "aestivation-like response," which is a biological defense response to starvation.

    Abstract Previous basic and clinical investigations have identified various pathogenic factors and determinants of risk that contribute to hypertension. Nevertheless, the pathogenesis of hypertension has not been fully elucidated. Moreover, despite the availability of antihypertensive medications for the management of blood pressure, treatments that address the full spectrum of the pathophysiological defects underpinning hypertension remain to be identified. To further investigate the mechanisms of primary hypertension, it is imperative to consider novel potential aspects, such as fluid management by the skin, in addition to the conventional risk factors. There is a close association between body fluid regulation and blood pressure, and the kidney, which, as the principal organ responsible for body fluid homeostasis, is the primary target for research in the field of hypertension. In addition, the skin functions as a biological barrier, potentially contributing to body fluid regulation. In this review, we propose the hypothesis that changes in skin water conservation are associated with hypertension risk based on recent findings. Further studies are required to clarify whether this novel hypothesis is limited to specific hypertension or applies to physiological blood pressure regulation.

    Abstract Homeostasis of body fluid is a key component for maintaining health. An imbalance of body sodium and water causes various pathological states, such as dehydration, volume overload, hypertension, cardiovascular and renal diseases, and metabolic disorders. Conventional concepts regarding physiology and pathophysiology of body sodium and water balance have been established by several assumptions. These assumptions are that the kidneys are the master regulator of body sodium and water content, and that sodium moves inside the body in parallel with water. However, recent clinical and basic studies have proposed alternative concepts. These concepts are that body sodium and water balance are regulated by various organs and multiple factors, such as physical activity and the environment, and that sodium accumulates locally in tissues independently of the blood status and/or water. Various concerns remain unclear, and the regulatory mechanism of body sodium, fluid, and blood pressure needs to be readdressed. In the present review article, we discuss novel concepts regarding the regulation of body sodium, water, and blood pressure with a particular focus on the systemic water conservation system and fluid loss-triggered elevation in blood pressure.

    Abstract Accumulating evidence has indicated the potential contributions of aldosterone and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) to the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with primary aldosteronism have a higher risk of CVD and CKD than those with essential hypertension. MR is strongly expressed in endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, macrophages, glomerular mesangial cells, podocytes, and proximal tubular cells. In these cardiovascular and renal cells, aldosterone-induced cell injury is prevented by MR blockade. Interestingly, MR antagonists elicit beneficial effects on CVD and CKD in subjects with low or normal plasma aldosterone levels. Recent studies have shown that during development of CVD and CKD, cardiovascular and renal MR is activated by glucocorticoid and ligand-independent mechanisms, such as Rac1 signaling pathways. These data indicate that inappropriate activation of local MR contributes to cardiovascular and renal tissue injury through aldosterone-dependent and -independent mechanisms. In this review, recent findings on the specific role of cardiovascular and renal MR in the pathogenesis of CVD and CKD are summarized.
