Abstract:
:The hormonal responsiveness profile of the cortical collecting duct varies from one species to another. To identify the hormones and agonists that modulate the functions of this tubule segment in the human species, we generated a cell line (HCD) immortalized by SV40 virus. The tubular origin of this cell line was assessed by the expression of collecting duct-specific antigens and the ability of vasopressin to increase by nine-fold cAMP synthesis. Glucagon and adenosine stimulated cAMP synthesis, and atrial natriuretic peptide stimulated cGMP synthesis in a concentration-dependent manner. Bradykinin, adenosine and angiotensin increased intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). Because adenosine can regulate tubular functions, we examined its role on glucagon-induced cAMP synthesis. Using adenosine analogs, we demonstrated that HCT cells both expressed adenosine type-2 (A2) receptors which stimulated cAMP production, and adenosine type-1 (A1) receptors linked to [Ca2+]i increase which inhibited glucagon-stimulated cAMP synthesis. The inhibitory effect was abolished by pertussis toxin, and was neither due to [Ca2+]i increase nor to protein kinase C activation, which indicated that some A1 adenosine receptors were directly negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase. These results suggest that adenosine can modify human cortical collecting duct functions in opposite ways according to the adenosine receptor activated.
