Acute activation of NHE3 by dexamethasone correlates with activation of SGK1 and requires a functional glucocorticoid receptor.

چکیده
Glucocorticoids stimulate the intestinal absorption of Na(+) and water partly by regulation of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3). Previous studies have shown both genomic and nongenomic regulation of NHE3 by glucocorticoids. Serum and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK1) has been shown to be part of this cascade, where phosphorylation of NHE3 by SGK1 initiates the translocation of NHE3 to the cell surface. In the present work, we examined a series of changes in SGK1 and NHE3 induced by glucocorticoids using human colonic Caco-2 and opossum kidney cells. We found that dexamethasone rapidly stimulated SGK1 mRNAs, but a significant change in protein abundance was not detected. Instead, there was an increase in SGK1 kinase activity as early as at 2 h. An increase in NHE3 protein abundance was not detected until 12 h of dexamethasone exposure, although the transport activity was significantly stimulated at 4 h. These data demonstrate that the changes of SGK1 precede those of NHE3. Chronic regulation (24 h) of NHE3 was blocked completely by prevention of protein synthesis with cycloheximide or actinomycin D and by the glucocorticoid receptor blocker RU486. The acute effect of dexamethasone was similarly abrogated by RU486, but was insensitive to cycloheximide and actinomycin D. Similarly, the stimulation of SGK1 activity by dexamethasone was blocked by RU486 but not by actinomycin D. Together, these data show that the acute effect of glucocorticoids on NHE3 is mediated by a glucocorticoid receptor dependent mechanism that activates SGK1 in a nongenomic manner.

Activation of NHE3 by dexamethasone requires phosphorylation of NHE3 at Ser663 by SGK1.
Glucocorticoids stimulate Na+ absorption by activation of the epithelial Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 in the kidney and intestine. It has been thought that glucocorticoid-induced activation of NHE3 is solely dependent on transcriptional induction of the NHE3 gene. While the transcriptional regulation remains an essential part of the chronic effect of glucocorticoids, a previous study by us identified ...
متن کاملSerum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 3 in recycling endosomes mediates acute activation of Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 by glucocorticoids
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) is the major Na(+) transporter in the intestine. Serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase (SGK) 1 interacts with NHE regulatory factor 2 (NHERF2) and mediates activation of NHE3 by dexamethasone (Dex) in cultured epithelial cells. In this study, we compared short-term regulation of NHE3 by Dex in SGK1-null and NHERF2-null mice. In comparison to wild-type mice, loss...
متن کاملCharacterization of the regulation of renal Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 by insulin.
Insulin receptors are widely distributed in the kidney and affect multiple aspects of renal function. In the proximal tubule, insulin regulates volume and acid-base regulation through stimulation of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. This paper characterizes the signaling pathway by which insulin stimulates NHE3 in a cell culture model [opossum kidney (OK) cell]. Insulin has two distinct phases of ...

The role of SGK1 (serum- and glucocorticoid-induced protein kinase 1) in the glucocorticoid induction of alpha-ENaC (epithelial Na+ channel alpha subunit) gene transcription was explored by monitoring the transcriptional activity of a luciferase-linked, alpha-ENaC reporter gene construct (pGL3-KR1) expressed in H441 airway epithelial cells. Dexamethasone evoked a concentration-dependent (EC50 a...
