ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Renin is secreted from the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells in response to a wide variety of extracellular stimuli. To study the underlying mechanism of regulation of renin secretion at molecular level, pure JG cell lines (As 4.1) cloned from renal JG tumor was used. In this study, to explore the feasibility of As 4.1 cells as an in vitro model for renin secretion, the changes of renin secretion from As 4.1 in culture during cell cycle were characterized.METHODS:
To address this issue, As 4.1s were synchronized in G0, G1, S, G2, early M and late M phase during experiment.RESULTS:
The rate of renin secretion was above 1 ng AI/well/hr in G0, G2/M and early mitotic phase and 0.5 ng AI/well/hr in G1, G1/S, S and late mitotic phase. ML-7 (6x10(-5) M), an inhibitor of MLCK which is known to stimulate renin secretion, increased the rate of renin secretion much greater in G1, G1/S, S and late M phase than the other phases; in particular, in early mitotic phase it had no stimulation. On the other hand, the rate of renin secretion was not influenced through out cell cycles by calyculin A, an inhibitor of type 1 protein phosphatase. Forskolin, an activator of adenlyate cyclase resulting in an elevation of intracellular cyclic AMP, stimulated renin secretion only in S phase in a concentration dependent manner.CONCLUSION:
The present study demonstrated that As 4.1 cells in culture secrete active renin in much the similar manner to JG cells in situ but its rate varies during each phase of the cell cycle. Thus As 4.1 cells can be utilized as an in vitro model for renin secretion. But, changes in the rate of renin secretion and the secretory responses to stimulators or inhibitors during cell cycle must be considered in conducting experiments to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanism of the renin secretion.
