    Abstract Essential hypertension is caused by the interaction of genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors. Abnormalities in the regulation of renal ion transport cause essential hypertension. The renal dopaminergic system, which inhibits sodium transport in all the nephron segments, is responsible for at least 50% of renal sodium excretion under conditions of moderate sodium excess. Dopaminergic signals are transduced by two families of receptors that belong to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. D

    Abstract Dopamine is synthesized in the nervous system where it acts as a neurotransmitter. Dopamine is also synthesized in a number of peripheral organs as well as in several types of cells and has organ-specific functions and, as demonstrated more recently, is involved in the regulation of the immune response and inflammatory reaction. In particular, the renal dopaminergic system is very important in the regulation of sodium transport and blood pressure and is particularly sensitive to stimuli that cause oxidative stress and inflammation. This review is focused on how dopamine is synthesized in organs and tissues and the mechanisms by which dopamine and its receptors exert their effects on the inflammatory response.

    Abstract The integrity and function of mitochondria are essential for normal kidney physiology. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been widely a concern in recent years because its abnormalities may result in disruption of aerobic respiration, cellular dysfunction, and even cell death. Particularly, aberrant mtDNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) is associated with the development of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease, and urinary mtDNA-CN shows the potential to be a promising indicator for clinical diagnosis and evaluation of kidney function. Several lines of evidence suggest that mtDNA may also trigger innate immunity, leading to kidney inflammation and fibrosis. In mechanism, mtDNA can be released into the cytoplasm under cell stress and recognized by multiple DNA-sensing mechanisms, including Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), cytosolic cGAS-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling, and inflammasome activation, which then mediate downstream inflammatory cascades. In this review, we summarize the characteristics of these mtDNA-sensing pathways mediating inflammatory responses and their role in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury, nondiabetic chronic kidney disease, and diabetic kidney disease. In addition, we highlight targeting of mtDNA-mediated inflammatory pathways as a novel therapeutic target for these kidney diseases.

    Abstract A disintegrin and metalloproteinases (ADAMs) family are proteolytic transmembrane proteases that modulate diverse cell functions and coordinate intercellular communication. ADAMs are responsible for regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and organ morphogenesis in kidney development. Abnormally activated ADAMs drive inflammation and fibrosis in response to kidney diseases such as acute kidney injury, diabetic kidney disease, polycystic kidney disease, and chronic allograft nephropathy. ADAM10 and ADAM17, known as the most characterized members of ADAMs, are extensively investigated in kidney diseases. Notably, ADAM proteases have the potential to be targets for developing novel treatment approaches in kidney diseases.

    Abstract Background: The thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransporter (NCC) is the major apical sodium transporter located in the mammalian renal distal convoluted tubule (DCT). The amount of sodium reabsorbed in the DCT through NCC plays an important role in the regulation of extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure. Dopamine and its receptors constitute a renal antihypertensive system in mammals. The disruption of Drd4 in mice causes kidney-related hypertension. However, the pathogenesis of D4R-deficiency associated hypertension is not well documented.
    Method: We assessed the effects of D4R on NCC protein abundances and activities of DCT in mice with renal or global Drd4-deficiencies and expressing human D4.7 variant and in cultured mouse DCT cells, and explored the molecular mechanism.
    Results: NCC inhibitor hydrochlorothiazide enhanced the natriuresis in Drd4-/- mice. Renal NCC protein was greater while ubiquitination of NCC was less in Drd4-/- than Drd4+/+ mice. Silencing of D4R in cultured mouse DCT cells increased NCC protein but decreased NCC ubiquitination. D4R agonist had opposite effects that were blocked by the antagonist. In mouse kidneys and DCT cells D4R and NCC colocalized and co-immunoprecipitated. Moreover, D4R-agonist promoted the binding between the two proteins demonstrated by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. D4R agonism internalized NCC, decreased NCC in the plasma membrane, increased NCC in lysosomes and reduced NCC-dependent-intracellular-sodium transport. The lysosomal inhibitor chloroquine prevented the D4R-induced NCC-reduction. A shortened NCC half-life was suggested by its decay under cycloheximide-chase. Ubiquitin-specific-protease 48 (USP48, a deubiquitinating enzyme) was increased in the kidneys and cells with Drd4-deficiency while D4R stimulation decreased it in vitro and reduction of USP48 with siRNA decreased NCC expression. The mice carrying human D4.7 variant or with renal supcapsular-Drd4-siRNA-delivery developed hypertension with increased NCC.
    Conclusion: Our data demonstrates that D4R downregulates NCC by promoting USP48-associated deubiquitination and subsequent internalization, lysosome relocation and degradation.

    Abstract Renal luminal sodium transport is essential for physiological blood pressure control, and abnormalities in this process are strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension. Renal G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are critical for the regulation of the reabsorption of essential nutrients, ions, and water from the glomerular filtrate. Recently, we showed that GPCR 37L1 (GPR37L1) is expressed on the apical membrane of renal proximal tubules (RPT) and regulates luminal sodium transport and blood pressure by modulating the function of the sodium proton exchanger 3 (NHE3). However, little is known about GPR37L1 intracellular signaling. Here, we show that GPR37L1 is localized to the nuclear membrane, in addition to the plasma membrane in human RPT cells. Furthermore, GPR37L1 signals via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway to decrease the expression of DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and enhance NHE3 transcription. Overall, we demonstrate the direct role of a nuclear membrane GPCR in the regulation of renal sodium through epigenetic gene regulation.

    Abstract Salt sensitivity is estimated to be present in 51% of the hypertensive and 26% of the normotensive populations. The individual blood pressure response to salt is heterogeneous and possibly related to inherited susceptibility. Although the mechanisms underlying salt sensitivity are complex and not well understood, genetics can help to determine the blood response to salt intake. So far only a few genes have been found to be associated with salt-sensitive hypertension using candidate gene association studies. The kidney is critical to overall fluid and electrolyte balance and long-term regulation of blood pressure. Thus, the pathogenesis of salt sensitivity must involve a derangement in renal NaCl handling: an inability to decrease renal sodium transport and increase sodium excretion in the face of an increase in NaCl load that could be caused by aberrant counter-regulatory natriuretic/antinatriuretic pathways. We review here the literature regarding the gene variants associated with salt-sensitive hypertension and how the presence of these gene variants influences the response to antihypertensive therapy.
