We reported that high salt intake stimulates renal collecting duct (CD) endothelin B receptor (ETBR)/NOS1β-dependent NO production inhibiting the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) promoting natriuresis. However, the mechanism underlying the high salt (HS) induced increase of NO production is unclear. Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) responds to increased fluid flow, as can occur in the CD during HS intake. The renal inner medulla (IM), in particular the IMCD, has the highest NOS1 activity within the kidney. Hence, we hypothesized that HS intake provokes HDAC1 activation of NO production in the IM. HS intake for one week significantly increased HDAC1 abundance in the IM. Ex vivo treatment of dissociated IM from HS mice with a selective HDAC1 inhibitor (MS-275) decreased NO production with no change in endothelin-1 (ET-1) peptide or mRNA levels. We further investigated the role of the ET-1/ETBR/NOS1β signaling pathway with chronic ETBR blockade (A-192621). Although NO was decreased and ET-1 levels were elevated in dissociated IM from HS mice treated with A-192621, ex vivo MS-275 did not further change NO or ET-1 levels suggesting that HDAC1 mediated NO production is regulated at the level or downstream of ETBR activation. In split-open CDs from HS mice, patch clamp analysis revealed significantly higher ENaC activity after MS-275 pretreatment, which was abrogated by an exogenous NO donor. Moreover, flow-induced increases in mIMCD-3 cell NO production were blunted by HDAC1 or calcium inhibition. Taken together, these findings indicate that HS intake induces HDAC1-dependent activation of the ETBR/NO pathway contributing to the natriuretic response.

In low sodium-induced intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) rat, foetal adrenal steroidogenesis as well as the adult renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is altered. The aim of the present study was to determine the expression of cytochrome P450 aldosterone synthase (P450aldo) and of angiotensin II receptor subtypes 1 (AT1R) and 2 (AT2R) in adult adrenal glands and whether this expression could be influenced by IUGR and by high-salt intake in a sex-specific manner. After 6 weeks of 0.9% NaCl supplementation, plasma renin activity, P450aldo expression and serum aldosterone levels were decreased in all groups. In males, IUGR induced an increase in AT1R, AT2R, and P450aldo levels, without changes in morphological appearance of the zona glomerulosa (ZG). By contrast, in females, IUGR had no effect on the expression of AT1R, but increased AT2R mRNA while decreasing protein expression of AT2R and P450aldo. In males, salt intake in IUGR rats reduced both AT1R mRNA and protein, while for AT2R, mRNA levels decreased whereas protein expression increased. In females, salt intake reduced ZG size in IUGR but had no affect on AT1R or AT2R expression in either group. These results indicate that, in response to IUGR and subsequently to salt intake, P450aldo, AT1R, and AT2R levels are differentially expressed in males and females. However, despite these adrenal changes, adult IUGR rats display adequate physiological and adrenal responses to high-salt intake, via RAAS inhibition, thus suggesting that extra-adrenal factors likely compensate for ZG alterations induced by IUGR.

Cyp epoxygenase is responsible for metabolizing arachidonic acid to epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) in the kidney and vascular tissues. EET has been shown to cause vasodilation by stimulating Ca 2+ -activated K channels in vascular smooth muscles and to have natriuretic effect by inhibiting the epithelial Na channel (ENaC) in the kidney. In the present study we used real time PCR technique to examine the effect of high salt intake or high K intake on Cyp2c44 (a major type of Cyp epoxygenase in the mouse kidney) in the proximal tubule (PxT), thick ascending limb (TAL), distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and the CNT/CCD. An increase in dietary Na content stimulates the expression of Cyp2c4 in TAL, DCT and CNT/CCD but not in PxT while an increase in dietary K intake augments the expression of Cyp2c44 only in DCT and CNT/CCD. Neither high salt intake nor high K intake has a significant effect on the blood pressure (BP) in wt mice. However, high K intake increased BP in CNT/CCD specific conditional knockout (KO) mice. In contrast, the high Na intake did not significantly increase the BP in those KO mice. This suggests that Cyp2c44 in the CNT/CCD plays a key role in preventing hypertension induced by increasing dietary K intake. Administration of amiloride (a ENaC inhibitor) restored the normal BP in KO mice fed high K diet, suggesting that down-regulation of Cyp2c44 may enhance the Na absorption in the CNT/CCD. This notion was also supported by metabolic cage study demonstrating that renal Na excretion was compromised in KO mice. We conclude that Cyp2c44 plays a key role in stimulating renal Na excretion during increasing dietary K intake and that Cyp-epoxygenase is required for antihypertensive effect induced by high K intake.

The purpose of this study was to determine if local nitric oxide (NO) activity attenuates the arteriolar myogenic response in rat spinotrapezius muscle. We also investigated the possibility that hypertension, dietary salt, or their combination can alter any influence of local NO on the myogenic response. Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) fed low-salt (0.45%, LS) or high-salt (7%, HS) diets were enclosed in a ventilated airtight box with the spinotrapezius muscle exteriorized for intravital microscopy. Mean arterial pressure was unaffected by dietary salt in WKY but was significantly higher and augmented by dietary salt in SHR. In all experiments, elevation of microvascular pressure by box pressurization caused a 0–30% decrease in the diameter of large (arcade bridge) arterioles and a 21–27% decrease in the diameter of intermediate (arcade) arterioles. Inhibition of NO synthase with N G-monomethyl-l-arginine (l-NMMA) significantly enhanced myogenic responsiveness of arcade bridge arterioles in WKY-LS and SHR-LS but not in WKY-HS and SHR-HS.l-NMMA significantly enhanced the myogenic responsiveness of arcade arterioles in all four groups. Excess l-arginine reversed this effect of l-NMMA in all cases, and arteriolar responsiveness to the NO donor sodium nitroprusside was not different among the four groups. High-salt intake had no effect on the passive distension of arterioles in either strain during box pressurization. We conclude that 1) local NO normally attenuates arteriolar myogenic responsiveness in WKY and SHR, 2) dietary salt impairs local NO activity in arcade bridge arterioles of both strains, and 3) passive arteriolar distensibility is not altered by a high-salt diet in either strain.

Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), which is abundantly expressed in the macula densa cells, attenuates tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF). We hypothesize that splice variants of nNOS are expressed in the macula densa, and nNOS-β is a salt-sensitive isoform that modulates TGF. Sprague-Dawley rats received a low-, normal-, or high-salt diet for 10 days and levels of the nNOS-α, nNOS-β, and nNOS-γ were measured in the macula densa cells isolated with laser capture microdissection. Three splice variants of nNOS, α-, β-, and γ-mRNAs, were detected in the macula densa cells. After 10 days of high-salt intake, nNOS-α decreased markedly, whereas nNOS-β increased two- to threefold in the macula densa measured with real-time PCR and in the renal cortex measured with Western blot. NO production in the macula densa was measured in the perfused thick ascending limb with an intact macula densa plaque with a fluorescent dye DAF-FM. When the tubular perfusate was switched from 10 to 80 mM NaCl, a maneuver to induce TGF, NO production by the macula densa was increased by 38 ± 3% in normal-salt rats and 52 ± 6% ( P < 0.05) in the high-salt group. We found 1) macula densa cells express nNOS-α, nNOS-β, and nNOS-γ, 2) a high-salt diet enhances nNOS-β, and 3) TGF-induced NO generation from macula densa is enhanced in high-salt diet possibly from nNOS-β. In conclusion, we found that the splice variants of nNOS expressed in macula densa cells were α-, β-, and γ-isoforms and propose that enhanced level of nNOS-β during high-salt intake may contribute to macula densa NO production and help attenuate TGF.

Salt Sensitive Hypertension

A deficiency in nitric oxide (NO) generation leads to salt-sensitive hypertension, but the role of increased superoxide (O2−) in such salt sensitivity has not been delineated. We examined the hypothesis that an enhancement in O2− activity induced by high-salt (HS) intake under deficient NO production contributes to the development of salt-sensitive hypertension. Endothelial NO synthase knockout (eNOS KO; total n = 64) and wild-type (WT; total n = 58) mice were given diets containing either normal (NS; 0.4%) or high-salt (HS; 4%) for 2 wk. During this period, mice were chronically treated with a O2− scavenger, tempol (400 mg/l), or an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, apocynin (1 g/l), in drinking water or left untreated ( n = 6–8 per group). Blood pressure was measured by radiotelemetry and 24-h urine samples were collected in metabolic cages. Basal mean arterial pressure (MAP) in eNOS KO was higher (125 ± 4 vs. 106 ± 3 mmHg) compared with WT. Feeding HS diet did not alter MAP in WT but increased it in eNOS KO to 166 ± 9 mmHg. Both tempol and apocynin treatment significantly attenuated the MAP response to HS in eNOS KO (134 ± 3 and 139 ± 4 mmHg, respectively). Basal urinary 8-isoprostane excretion rates (UIsoV), a marker for endogenous O2− activity, were similar (2.8 ± 0.2 and 2.4 ± 0.3 ng/day) in both eNOS KO and WT mice. However, HS increased UIsoV more in eNOS KO than in WT (4.6 ± 0.3 vs. 3.8 ± 0.2 ng/day); these were significantly attenuated by both tempol and apocynin treatment. These data indicate that an enhancement in O2− activity contributes substantially to the development of salt-sensitive hypertension under NO-deficient conditions.

Salt Sensitive Hypertension

A high amount of salt in the diet increases blood pressure (BP) and leads to salt-sensitive hypertension in individuals with impaired renal sodium excretion. Small guanosine triphosphatase (GTP)ase Rho and Rac, activated by salt intake, play important roles in the pathogenesis of salt-sensitive hypertension as key switches of intracellular signaling. Focusing on Rho, high salt intake in the central nervous system increases sodium concentrations of cerebrospinal fluid in salt-sensitive subjects via Rho/Rho kinase and renin-angiotensin system activation and causes increased brain salt sensitivity and sympathetic nerve outflow in BP control centers. In vascular smooth muscle cells, Rho-guanine nucleotide exchange factors and Rho determine sensitivity to vasoconstrictors such as angiotensin II (Ang II), and facilitate vasoconstriction via G-protein and Wnt pathways, leading to increased vascular resistance, including in the renal arteries, in salt-sensitive subjects with high salt intake. In the vascular endothelium, Rho/Rho kinase inhibits nitric oxide (NO) production and function, and high salt amounts further augment Rho activity via asymmetric dimethylarginine, an endogenous inhibitor of NO synthetase, causing aberrant relaxation and increased vascular tone. Rho-associated mechanisms are deeply involved in the development of salt-sensitive hypertension, and their further elucidation can help in developing effective protection and new therapies.

In normotensive rats, an increase in dietary salt leads to decreased arteriolar responsiveness to acetylcholine (ACh) because of suppressed local nitric oxide (NO) activity. We evaluated the possibility that generation of reactive oxygen species in the arteriolar wall is responsible for this loss of NO activity. Arteriolar responses to iontophoretically applied ACh were examined in the superfused spinotrapezius muscle of Sprague-Dawley rats fed a low-salt (LS; 0.45%) or high-salt diet (HS; 7%) for 4–5 wk. Responses to ACh were significantly depressed in HS rats but returned to normal in the presence of the oxidant scavengers superoxide dismutase + catalase or 2,2,6,6-tetamethylpiperidine- N-oxyl (TEMPO) + catalase. Arteriolar responses to the NO donor sodium nitroprusside were similar in HS and LS rats. Arteriolar and venular wall oxidant activity, as determined by reduction of tetranitroblue tetrazolium, was significantly greater in HS rats than in LS rats. Exposure to TEMPO + catalase reduced microvascular oxidant levels to normal in HS rats. These data suggest that a high-salt diet leads to increased generation of reactive oxygen species in striated muscle microvessels, and this increased oxidative state may be responsible for decreased endothelium-dependent responses associated with high salt intake.

Abstract Nocturnal polyuria is the most frequent cause of nocturia, a common disease associated with a compromised quality of life and increased mortality. Its pathogenesis is complex, and the detailed underlying mechanism remains unknown. Herein, we report that concomitant intake of a high-salt diet and reduced nitric oxide (NO) production achieved through Nω-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME) administration in mice resulted in nocturnal polyuria recapitulating the clinical features in humans. High salt intake under reduced NO production overactivated the angiotensin II-SPAK (STE20/SPS1-related proline–alanine-rich protein kinase)-NCC (sodium chloride co-transporter) pathway in the kidney, resulting in the insufficient excretion of sodium during the day and its excessive excretion at night. Excessive Na excretion at night in turn leads to nocturnal polyuria due to osmotic diuresis. Our study identified a central role for the intrarenal angiotensin II-SPAK-NCC pathway in the pathophysiology of nocturnal polyuria, highlighting its potential as a promising therapeutic target.
