We used patch-clamp and Western blot analysis to test whether PGF2α stimulates the basolateral 10-pS Cl- channel and thiazide-sensitive Na+-Cl- cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) via a prostaglandin F receptor (FP-R). Single channel and whole cell recordings demonstrated that PGF2α stimulated the 10-pS Cl- channel in the DCT. The stimulatory effect of PGF2α on the Cl- channel was mimicked by a FP-R agonist, latanoprost, but was abrogated by blocking FP-R with AL8810. Also, the effect of PGF2α on the Cl- channel in the DCT was recapitulated by stimulating PKC but was blocked by inhibiting PKC. Furthermore, inhibition of p38 MAPK but not ERK blocked the effect of PGF2α on the 10-pS Cl- channel. Inhibition of NADPH oxidase also abrogated the stimulatory effect of PGF2α on the 10-pS Cl- channel, while the addition of 10 μM H2O2 mimicked the stimulatory effect of PGF2α on the 10-pS Cl- channel. Moreover, superoxide-related species may mediate the stimulatory effect of PGF2α on the 10-pS Cl- channel because the stimulatory effect of PGF2α and H2O2 was not additive. Western blot analysis showed that infusion of PGF2α in vivo not only increased the expression of FP-R but also increased the expression of total NCC and phosphorylated NCC. We conclude that PGF2α stimulates the basolateral 10-pS Cl- channel in the DCT by activating FP-R through PKC/p38 MAPK and NADPH oxidase-dependent pathways. The stimulatory effects of PGF2α on the Cl- channel and NCC may contribute to PGF2α-induced increases in NaCl reabsorption in the DCT.

D010120 Oxytocics Drugs that stimulate contraction of the myometrium. They are used to induce LABOR, OBSTETRIC at term, to prevent or control postpartum or postabortion hemorrhage, and to assess fetal status in high risk pregnancies. They may also be used alone or with other drugs to induce abortions (ABORTIFACIENTS). Oxytocics used clinically include the neurohypophyseal hormone OXYTOCIN and certain prostaglandins and ergot alkaloids.

D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
