title: Regulation of ANP clearance receptors by EGF in mesangial cells from NOD mice.
abstract: Mesangial cells from nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice (D-NOD) that develop diabetes at 2-4 mo express an increased density of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) clearance receptors [natriuretic peptide C receptor (NPR-C)] and produce less GMP in response to ANP than their nondiabetic counterparts (ND-NOD). Our purpose was to investigate how both phenotypic characteristics were regulated. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and heparin-binding (HB)-EGF, but not platelet-derived growth factor or insulin-like growth factor I, inhibited (125)I-ANP binding to ND-NOD and D-NOD mesangial cells, particularly in the latter. NPR-C density decreased with no change in the apparent dissociation constant, and there was also a decrease in NPR-C mRNA expression. The EGF effect depended on activation of its receptor tyrosine kinase but not on that of protein kinase C, mitogen-activated protein kinases, or phosphoinositide-3 kinase. Activation of activator protein-1 (AP-1) was necessary, as shown by the inhibitory effect of curcumin and the results of the gel-shift assay. The cGMP response to physiological concentrations of ANP was greater in EGF-treated D-NOD cells. These studies suggest that EGF potentiates the ANP glomerular effects in diabetes by inhibition of its degradation by mesangial NPR-C via a mechanism involving AP-1.
