Critical role of the epithelial Ca2+ channel TRPV5 in active Ca2+ reabsorption as revealed by TRPV5/calbindin-D28K knockout mice.
The epithelial Ca(2+) channel TRPV5 facilitates apical Ca(2+) entry during active Ca(2+) reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule. In this process, cytosolic Ca(2+) remains at low nontoxic concentrations because the Ca(2+) influx is buffered rapidly by calbindin-D(28K). Subsequently, Ca(2+) that is bound to calbindin-D(28K) is shuttled toward the basolateral Ca(2+) extrusion systems. For ad...
متن کاملHypervitaminosis D mediates compensatory Ca2+ hyperabsorption in TRPV5 knockout mice.
Vitamin D plays an important role in Ca(2+) homeostasis by controlling Ca(2+) (re)absorption in intestine, kidney, and bone. The epithelial Ca(2+) channel TRPV5 mediates the Ca(2+) entry step in active Ca(2+) reabsorption. TRPV5 knockout (TRPV5(-/-)) mice show impaired Ca(2+) reabsorption, hypercalciuria, hypervitaminosis D, and intestinal hyperabsorption of Ca(2+). Moreover, these mice demonst...
متن کاملCalcitonin-stimulated renal Ca reabsorption occurs independently of TRPV5
Background. Calcitonin (CT) is known to affect renal Ca handling. However, it remains unclear how CT affects Ca transport in the distal convolutions. The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of the renal epithelial Ca channel, transient receptor potential vanilloid 5 (TRPV5), to renal Ca handling in response to CT. Methods. C57BL/6mice received a single overnight (16 hr) inject...
متن کاملIncreased expression of renal TRPM6 compensates for Mg2+ wasting during furosemide treatment
BACKGROUND Furosemide is a loop diuretic, which blocks the Na(+), K(+), 2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC2) in the thick ascending limb of Henle (TAL). By diminishing sodium (Na(+)) reabsorption, loop diuretics reduce the lumen-positive transepithelial voltage and consequently diminish paracellular transport of magnesium (Mg(2+)) and calcium (Ca(2+)) in TAL. Indeed, furosemide promotes urinary Mg(2+) ...
متن کاملThe immunophilin FKBP52 inhibits the activity of the epithelial Ca2+ channel TRPV5.
In the kidney, the epithelial Ca(2+) channel TRPV5 constitutes the apical entry pathway in the process of active Ca(2+) reabsorption. The regulation of Ca(2+) influx through TRPV5 is of crucial importance, because it determines the final amount of Ca(2+) excreted in the urine. The present study identifies FKBP52 as an auxiliary protein of TRPV5, inhibiting channel activity. FKBP52 shows specifi...
