Aldosterone-responsive genes in kidney cortical collecting duct cell line, mpkCCDc14


ABSTRACT: Aldosterone is arguably the single most important hormone implicated in the control of blood pressure and extracellular fluid volume in mammals. It acts primarily by increasing the rate of transepithelial sodium transport in the kidney tubules. Several monogenetic defects resulting in hypertension have now been attributed to abnormalities in sodium handling within the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, where the epithelial sodium channel, ENaC, constitutes the rate-limiting step of sodium transport. To date, the transcription-dependent aldosterone-signaling pathway between receptor and membrane transport effectors, remains incompletely understood. The broad aim of our study is to explore these intracellular signaling pathways that are critical to the functioning of sodium channels. Microarray analysis in an aldosterone-responsive kidney cortical collecting duct cell line (mpkCCDc14), allowed us to identify many potential aldosterone-regulated transcripts. The present study describes the identification, and possible physiological relevance of various aldosterone-regulated transcripts. The results of this study promise to extend our understanding of the molecular basis of aldosterone-regulated sodium transport in kidney epithelia, and provide approaches for regulating this process in disease states such as congestive heart failure and hypertension.
