Experiments were performed to examine the effect of changes in dietary salt intake on the neuronal form of the constitutive nitric oxide synthase (ncNOS, type I NOS), renin, and angiotensinogen mRNA expression in the kidney. Three groups of Sprague-Dawley rats were studied as follows: rats maintained on a 3% Na diet plus 0.45% NaCl in the drinking fluid for 7 days (high salt), rats given a single injection of furosemide (2 mg/kg i.p.) and a 0.03% Na diet for 7 days (low salt), and rats on a diet containing 0.2% Na (control). mRNA expression was assessed with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods using cDNA prepared from samples of renal cortex and microdissected tubular segments. ncNOS PCR products were quantified by comparison with a dilution series of a mutant deletion template. Compared with their respective control, ncNOS mRNA levels in renal cortical tissue were elevated in rats on a low-salt diet and reduced in rats on a high-salt diet. Similar changes were seen in the expression of renin and angiotensinogen mRNA. Dietary salt intake did not alter the mRNA levels for ncNOS from the inner medulla or for endothelial constitutive NOS (ecNOS, type III NOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS, type II NOS) in the renal cortex. ncNOS mRNA was found in glomeruli dissected with the macula densa-containing segment (MDCS), but only at marginal levels in glomeruli without MDCS. Furthermore, a low-salt diet stimulated ncNOS mRNA in glomeruli with MDCS by 6.2-fold compared with a high-salt diet. There was no effect of salt diet on ncNOS mRNA in glomeruli without MDCS or in inner medullary collecting ducts. These results suggest that ncNOS expression in macula densa cells is inversely regulated by salt intake, thus following the known response of the renin-angiotensin system to changes in salt balance.
