The pathophysiological mechanisms of vascular smooth muscle (VSM) contrac- tion contribute to the development of hypertension. Calcium (Ca2+)-dependent and -independent signaling mechanisms regulate the balance of the myosin light chain kinase and myosin light chain phosphatase to induce myosin phosphorylation, which activates VSM contraction to control blood pressure (BP). Here, we discuss the mechanism of the contractile machinery in VSM, especially RhoA/Rho kinase and PKC/CPI-17 of Ca2+ sensitization pathway in hypertension. The two signal- ing pathways affect BP in physiological and pathophysiological conditions and are highlighted in pulmonary, pregnancy, and salt-sensitive hypertension.

  • Activation and Phosphorylation of the 'Dense-Vesicle' High-Affinity Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterase by Cyclic AMP-Dependent Protein Kinase
    Biochem. J. (1989) 260, 27-36 (Printed in Great Britain) 27 Activation and phosphorylation of the 'dense-vesicle' high-affinity cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase Elaine KILGOUR, Neil G. ANDERSON and Miles D. HOUSLAY Molecular Pharmacology Group, Department of Biochemistry, University of Glasgow, Glasgow G12 8QQ, Scotland, U.K. Incubation of a hepatocyte particulate fraction with ATP and the isolated catalytic unit of cyclic AMP- dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) selectively activated the high-affinity 'dense-vesicle' cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. Such activation only occurred if the membranes had been pre-treated with Mg2". Mg2" pre-treatment appeared to function by stimulating endogenous phosphatases and did not affect phosphodiesterase activity. Using the antiserum DV4, which specifically immunoprecipitated the 51 and 57 kDa components of the 'dense-vesicle' phosphodiesterase from a detergent-solubilized membrane extract, we isolated a 32P-labelled phosphoprotein from 32P-labelled hepatocytes. MgCl2 treatment of such labelled membranes removed 32P from the immunoprecipitated protein. Incubation of the Mg2+-pre-treated membranes with [32P]ATP and A-kinase led to the time-dependent incorporation of label into the 'dense- vesicle' phosphodiesterase, as detected by specific immunoprecipitation with the antiserum DV4. The time- dependences of phosphodiesterase activation and incorporation of label were similar. It is suggested (i) that phosphorylation of the 'dense-vesicle' phosphodiesterase by A-kinase leads to its activation, and that such a process accounts for the ability of glucagon and other hormones, which increase intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations, to activate this enzyme, and (ii) that an as yet unidentified kinase can phosphorylate this enzyme without causing any significant change in enzyme activity but which prevents activation and phosphorylation of the phosphodiesterase by A-kinase.

Chan School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts ABSTRACT Background The death of epithelial cells in the proximal tubules is thought to be the primary cause of AKI, but epithelial cells that survive kidney injury have a remarkable ability to proliferate. Because proximal tubular epithelial cells play a predominant role in kidney regeneration after damage, a potential approach to treat AKI is to discover regenerative therapeutics capable of stimulating proliferation of these cells. Methods We conducted a high-throughput phenotypic screen using 1902 biologically active compounds to identify new molecules that promote proliferation of primary human proximal tubular epithelial cells in vitro. Results The primary screen identified 129 compounds that stimulated tubular epithelial cell proliferation. A secondary screen against these compounds over a range of four doses confirmed that eight resulted in a significant increase in cell number and incorporation of the modified thymidine analog EdU (indicating actively proliferating cells), compared with control conditions. These eight compounds also stimulated tubular cell proliferation in vitro after damage induced by hypoxia, cadmium chloride, cyclosporin A, or polymyxin B.

Hydroxyurea has been proposed to mediate these effects through a mechanism of increasing cellular cGMP levels. An alternative path to increasing cGMP levels in these cells is through the use of phospho- diesterase-9 inhibitors that selectively inhibit cGMP hydrolysis and increase cellular cGMP levels.
