Critical role of the epithelial Ca2+ channel TRPV5 in active Ca2+ reabsorption as revealed by TRPV5/calbindin-D28K knockout mice.

چکیده
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 addressing the in vivo role of TRPV5 and calbindin-D(28K) in the maintenance of the Ca(2+) balance, single- and double-knockout mice of TRPV5 and calbindin-D(28K) (TRPV5(-/-), calbindin-D(28K)(-/-), and TRPV5(-/-)/calbindin-D(28K)(-/-)) were characterized. These mice strains were fed two Ca(2+) diets (0.02 and 2% wt/wt) to investigate the influence of dietary Ca(2+) content on the Ca(2+) balance. Urine analysis indicated that TRPV5(-/-)/calbindin-D(28K)(-/-) mice exhibit on both diets hypercalciuria compared with wild-type mice. Ca(2+) excretion in TRPV5(-/-)/calbindin-D(28K)(-/-) mice was not significantly different from TRPV5(-/-) mice, whereas calbindin-D(28K)(-/-) mice did not show hypercalciuria. The similarity between TRPV5(-/-)/calbindin-D(28K)(-/-) and TRPV5(-/-) mice was supported further by an equivalent increase in renal calbindin-D(9K) expression and in intestinal Ca(2+) hyperabsorption as a result of upregulation of calbindin-D(9K) and TRPV6 expression in the duodenum. Elevated serum parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) levels accompanied the enhanced expression of the Ca(2+) transporters. Intestinal Ca(2+) absorption and expression of calbindin-D(9K) and TRPV6, as well as serum parameters of the calbindin-D(28K)(-/-) mice, did not differ from those of wild-type mice. These results underline the gatekeeper function of TRPV5 being the rate-limiting step in active Ca(2+) reabsorption, unlike calbindin-D(28K), which possibly is compensated by calbindin-D(9K).

Acid-base status determines the renal expression of Ca2+ and Mg2+ transport proteins.
Chronic metabolic acidosis results in renal Ca2+ and Mg2+ wasting, whereas chronic metabolic alkalosis is known to exert the reverse effects. It was hypothesized that these adaptations are mediated at least in part by the renal Ca2+ and Mg2+ transport proteins. The aim of this study, therefore, was to determine the effect of systemic acid-base status on renal expression of the epithelial Ca2+ c...

Calcium (Ca2+) is vital for multiple processes in the body, and maintenance of the electrolyte concentration is required for everyday physiological function. In the kidney, and more specifically, in the late distal convoluted tubule and connecting tubule, the fine-tuning of Ca2+ reabsorption from the pro-urine takes place. Here, Ca2+ enters the epithelial cell via the transient receptor potenti...
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 کاملRenal Ca2+ wasting, hyperabsorption, and reduced bone thickness in mice lacking TRPV5.
Ca2+ ions play a fundamental role in many cellular processes, and the extracellular concentration of Ca2+ is kept under strict control to allow the proper physiological functions to take place. The kidney, small intestine, and bone determine the Ca2+ flux to the extracellular Ca2+ pool in a concerted fashion. Transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel subfamily V, members 5 and 6 (TRPV5 ...
