项目摘要

Project Abstract The goal of this proposed project titled “Aldosterone Independent Activation of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor via IL-6 and Rac1 Induces Sodium Retention and Hypertension” is to investigate the role of renal dendritic cells (rDCs) in mediating cytokine-induced transactivation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), increasing sodium (Na+) reabsorption and blood pressure (BP). Excessive Na+ reabsorption is a main cause of hypertension and end organ damage. The mechanisms mediating pathophysiological Na+ retention are unknown; however, increased inflammation and excessive activation of distal nephron Na+ transporters, the Na+ chloride cotransporter (NCC) and the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) play a role. However, the mechanisms linking increased inflammation and cytokines to Na+ transporter activation are yet unidentified. Following a stressor, DCs cells secrete interleukin 6 (IL-6) producing a pro-inflammatory milieu. Our preliminary data suggest that baseline blood pressure (BP) is regulated via rDCs, and the decreased systolic BP levels observed in rDC-depleted mice may be due to decreased NCC protein expression. Further, our data suggest that hypertension (HTN) increases serum IL-6 levels, while renal cortical IL-6 mRNA levels are reduced in rDC-depleted mice. Our robust in vivo data suggest that intrarenal IL-6 infusion increases phosphorylated (pT53) NCC, and total NCC, as well as ENaC expression. We also show that systemic IL-6, plus high salt (HS, 4%) increases BP after 3 days. Together, these data strongly support a role for rDC- mediating local IL-6 levels, and IL-6 increasing Na+ transporter expression and/or activity and BP. Moreover, our in vitro data demonstrates that IL-6 induces MR nuclear translocation and activation of downstream mineralocorticoid response elements (MRE), via the small GTP-ase Rac1 and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and can directly activate thiazide-sensitive Na+ transport. Thus, we hypothesize that intrarenal IL-6 transactivates the MR, increasing distal tubular Na+ reabsorption via NCC and ENaC leading to hypertension. The studies in this proposal, when completed, will demonstrate that: 1) salt-sensitive HTN activates rDCs, 2) rDCs contribute to increased intrarenal IL-6 levels during salt-sensitive HTN, 3) IL-6 independently transactivates the MR and 4) rDC-mediated IL-6 secretion increases NCC and ENaC Na+ transport leading to HTN.

项目摘要该拟议项目的目标为“盐皮质激素的醛固酮独立激活” 受体通过 IL-6 和 Rac1 诱导钠潴留和高血压”旨在研究肾功能的作用树突状细胞（rDC）介导细胞因子诱导的盐皮质激素受体（MR）反式激活，钠 (Na+) 重吸收增加和血压 (BP) 过多是导致血压升高的主要原因。高血压和终末器官损伤的介导病理生理性Na+潴留的机制是未知；然而，炎症增加和远端肾单位 Na+ 转运蛋白过度激活， Na+ 氯化物协同转运蛋白 (NCC) 和上皮 Na+ 通道 (ENaC) 发挥作用，但其机制如下。炎症和细胞因子增加与 Na+ 转运蛋白激活之间的联系尚未确定。应激源后，DC 细胞会分泌白细胞介素 6 (IL-6)，产生促炎环境。初步数据表明，基线血压 (BP) 通过 rDC 进行调节，收缩压降低 rDC 耗尽的小鼠中观察到的 BP 水平可能是由于 NCC 蛋白表达减少所致。表明高血压 (HTN) 会增加血清 IL-6 水平，而肾皮质 IL-6 mRNA 水平则升高我们可靠的体内数据表明，肾内 IL-6 输注会增加。我们还显示了磷酸化 (pT53) NCC 和总 NCC 以及 ENaC 表达。加高盐（HS，4%）3 天后血压升高，这些数据有力地支持了 rDC- 的作用。介导局部 IL-6 水平，并且 IL-6 增加 Na+ 转运蛋白表达和/或活性以及血压。此外，我们的体外数据表明 IL-6 诱导 MR 核易位和激活下游盐皮质激素反应元件 (MRE)，通过小 GTP 酶 Rac1 和活性氧物种（ROS）的产生，并且可以直接激活噻嗪类敏感的Na + 运输因此，我们努力做到这一点。肾内 IL-6 反式激活 MR，通过 NCC 和 ENaC 增加远端肾小管 Na+ 重吸收，从而导致本提案中的研究完成后将证明：1）盐敏感性高血压。激活 rDC，2) rDC 在盐敏感 HTN 期间有助于增加肾内 IL-6 水平，3) IL-6 独立反式激活 MR，4) rDC 介导的 IL-6 分泌增加 NCC 和 ENaC Na+ 通往 HTN 的交通。
