The effects of the ERK pathway on
electrogenic transepithelial Na+ absorption by renal
collecting duct cells were determined. Approximately 90% of the
unstimulated short-circuit current (15 ± 1 µA/cm2,
n = 10) across conditionally immortalized murine
collecting duct epithelial cells (mCT1) is amiloride sensitive and is
likely mediated by apical epithelial Na+ channels. Chronic
exposure (24 h) of the epithelial monolayers to either EGF (50 ng/ml)
or transforming growth factor-
(TGF-
; 20 ng/ml) reduced
amiloride-sensitive short-circuit current by >60%. The inhibitory
effect of EGF on Na+ absorption was not due to inhibition
of basolateral Na+-K+-ATPase, because the pump
current elicited by permeabilization of apical membrane with nystatin
was not reduced by EGF. Chronic exposure of the mCT1 cells to EGF (20 ng/ml, 24 h) elicited a 70-85% decrease in epithelial
Na+ channel subunit mRNA levels. Exposure of mCT1 cells to
either EGF (20 ng/ml) or PMA (150 nM) induced rapid phosphorylation of p42/p44 (ERK1/2) and pretreatment of the monolayers with PD-98059 (an
ERK kinase inhibitor; 30 µM) prevented phosphorylation of p42/p44. Similarly, pretreatment of mCT1 monolayers with
PD-98059 prevented the EGF- and PMA-induced inhibition of
amiloride-sensitive Na+ absorption. The results of these
studies demonstrate that amiloride-sensitive Na+ absorption
by renal collecting duct cells is regulated by the ERK pathway. This
pathway may play a role in alterations in ion transport that occur in
polycystic kidney disease.
