Stimulation of renal Na+ dicarboxylate cotransporter 1 by Na+/H+ exchanger regulating factor 2, serum and glucocorticoid inducible kinase isoforms, and protein kinase B

Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2004 Jan 23;313(4):998-1003. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2003.12.011.

Abstract

Renal tubular citrate transport is accomplished by electrogenic Na(+) coupled dicarboxylate transporter NaDC-1, a carrier subjected to regulation by acidosis. Trafficking of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3 is controlled by NHE regulating factors NHERF-1 and NHERF-2 and the serum and glucocorticoid inducible kinase SGK1. To test for a possible involvement in NaDC-1 regulation, mRNA encoding NaDC-1 was injected into Xenopus oocytes with or without cRNA encoding NHERF-1, NHERF-2, SGK1, SGK2, SGK3, and/or the constitutively active form of the related protein kinase B ((T308,S473D)PKB). Succinate induced inward currents (I(succ)) were taken as a measure of transport rate. Coexpression of neither NHERF-1 nor NHERF-2 in NaDC-1 expressing oocytes significantly altered I(succ). On the other hand, coexpression of SGK1, SGK3, and (T308,S473D)PKB stimulated I(succ), an effect further stimulated by additional coexpression of NHERF-2 but not of NHERF-1. The action of the kinases and NHERF-2 may link urinary citrate excretion to proximal tubular H(+) secretion.
