Renal tubular reabsorption is important for extracellular fluid homeostasis and much of this occurs via the receptor-mediated endocytic pathway. This pathway is disrupted in Dent’s disease, an X-linked renal tubular disorder that is characterized by low-molecular-weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis, and renal failure. Dent's disease is due to mutations of CLC-5, a chloride/proton antiporter, expressed in endosomes and apical membranes of renal tubules. Loss of CLC-5 function alters receptor-mediated endocytosis and trafficking of megalin and cubilin, although the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we report that CLC-5 interacts with kinesin family member 3B (KIF3B), a heterotrimeric motor protein that facilitates fast anterograde translocation of membranous organelles. Using yeast two-hybrid, glutathione- S-transferase pull-down and coimmunoprecipitation assays, the COOH terminus of CLC-5 and the coiled-coil and globular domains of KIF3B were shown to interact. This was confirmed in vivo by endogenous coimmunoprecipitation of CLC-5 and KIF3B and codistribution with endosomal markers in mouse kidney fractions. Confocal live cell imaging in kidney cells further demonstrated association of CLC-5 and KIF3B, and transport of CLC-5-containing vesicles along KIF3B microtubules. KIF3B overexpression and underexpression, using siRNA, had reciprocal effects on whole cell chloride current amplitudes, CLC-5 cell surface expression, and endocytosis of albumin and transferrin. Clcn5Y/− mouse kidneys and isolated proximal tubular polarized cells showed increased KIF3B expression, whose effects on albumin endocytosis were dependent on CLC-5 expression. Thus, the CLC-5 and KIF3B interaction is important for CLC-5 plasma membrane expression and for facilitating endocytosis and microtubular transport in the kidney.

Claudins are a family of tight junction proteins that provide size and charge selectivity to solutes traversing the paracellular space. Thick ascending limbs (TALs) express numerous claudins, including claudin-19. Nitric oxide (NO), via cGMP, reduces dilution potentials in perfused TALs, a measure of paracellular permeability, but the role of claudin-19 is unknown. We hypothesized that claudin-19 mediates the effects of NO/cGMP on the paracellular pathway in TALs via increases in plasma membrane expression of this protein. We measured the effect of the NO donor spermine NONOate (SPM) on dilution potentials with and without blocking antibodies and plasma membrane expression of claudin-19. During the control period, the dilution potential was −18.2 ± 1.8 mV. After treatment with 200 μmol/l SPM, it was −14.7 ± 2.0 mV ( P < 0.04). In the presence of claudin-19 antibody, the dilution potential was −12.7 ± 2.1 mV. After SPM, it was −12.9 ± 2.4 mV, not significantly different. Claudin-19 antibody alone had no effect on dilution potentials. In the presence of Tamm-Horsfall protein antibody, SPM reduced the dilution potential from −9.7 ± 1.0 to −6.3 ± 1.1 mV ( P < 0.006). Dibutyryl-cGMP (500 µmol/l) reduced the dilution potential from −19.6 ± 2.6 to −17.2 ± 2.3 mV ( P < 0.002). Dibutyryl-cGMP increased expression of claudin-19 in the plasma membrane from 29.9 ± 3.8% to 65.9 ± 10.1% of total ( P < 0.011) but did not change total expression. We conclude that claudin-19 mediates the effects of the NO/cGMP signaling cascade on the paracellular pathway.

We have recently reported that disruption of the actin cytoskeleton enhanced N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated granule exocytosis in human neutrophils but decreased plasma membrane expression of complement receptor 1 (CR1), a marker of secretory vesicles. The present study was initiated to determine if reduced CR1 expression was due to fMLP-stimulated endocytosis, to determine the mechanism of this endocytosis, and to examine its impact on neutrophil functional responses. Stimulation of neutrophils with fMLP or ionomycin in the presence of latrunculin A resulted in the uptake of Alexa fluor 488-labeled albumin and transferrin and reduced plasma membrane expression of CR1. These effects were prevented by preincubation of the cells with sucrose, chlorpromazine, or monodansylcadaverine (MDC), inhibitors of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Sucrose, chlorpromazine, and MDC also significantly inhibited fMLP- and ionomycin-stimulated specific and azurophil granule exocytosis. Disruption of microtubules with nocodazole inhibited endocytosis and azurophil granule exocytosis stimulated by fMLP in the presence of latrunculin A. Pharmacological inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, ERK1/2, and PKC significantly reduced fMLP-stimulated transferrin uptake in the presence of latrunculin A. Blockade of clathrin-mediated endocytosis had no significant effect on fMLP-stimulated phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in neutrophils pretreated with latrunculin A. From these data, we conclude that the actin cytoskeleton functions to limit microtubule-dependent, clathrin-mediated endocytosis in stimulated human neutrophils. The limitation of clathrin-mediated endocytosis by actin regulates the extent of both specific and azurophilic granule exocytosis.

Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone, mainly produced by osteoblasts and osteocytes in response to increased extracellular phosphate and circulating vitamin D hormone. Endocrine FGF23 signaling requires co-expression of the ubiquitously expressed FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) and the co-receptor α-Klotho (Klotho). In proximal renal tubules, FGF23 suppresses the membrane expression of the sodium–phosphate cotransporters Npt2a and Npt2c which mediate urinary reabsorption of filtered phosphate. In addition, FGF23 suppresses proximal tubular expression of 1α-hydroxylase, the key enzyme responsible for vitamin D hormone production. In distal renal tubules, FGF23 signaling activates with-no-lysine kinase 4, leading to increased renal tubular reabsorption of calcium and sodium. Therefore, FGF23 is not only a phosphaturic but also a calcium- and sodium-conserving hormone, a finding that may have important implications for the pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease. Besides these endocrine, Klotho-dependent functions of FGF23, FGF23 is also an auto-/paracrine suppressor of tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase transcription via Klotho-independent FGFR3 signaling, leading to local inhibition of mineralization through accumulation of pyrophosphate. In addition, FGF23 may target the heart via an FGFR4-mediated Klotho-independent signaling cascade. Taken together, there is emerging evidence that FGF23 is a pleiotropic hormone, linking bone with several other organ systems.

ABSTRACT Miltefosine (hexadecylphosphocholine, MLF) is the first oral drug with recognized efficacy against both visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis. However, some clinical studies have suggested that MLF shows significantly less efficiency against the cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania braziliensis. In this work, we have determined the cellular and molecular basis for the natural MLF resistance observed in L. braziliensis. Four independent L. braziliensis clinical isolates showed a marked decrease in MLF sensitivity that was due to their inability to internalize the drug. MLF internalization in the highly sensitive L. donovani species requires at least two proteins in the plasma membrane, LdMT, a P-type ATPase involved in phospholipid translocation, and its β subunit, LdRos3. Strikingly, L. braziliensis parasites showed highly reduced levels of this MLF translocation machinery at the plasma membrane, mainly because of the low expression levels of the β subunit, LbRos3. Overexpression of LbRos3 induces increased MLF sensitivity not only in L. braziliensis promastigotes but also in intracellular amastigotes. These results further highlight the importance of the MLF translocation machinery in determining MLF potency and point toward the development of protocols to routinely monitor MLF susceptibility in geographic areas where L. braziliensis might be prevalent.
