Disease relevance of SLC12A1

 

Psychiatry related information on SLC12A1

  • The protein abundance of mTAL BSC1, NHE3, and Na+ pump increased significantly in young but remained unchanged in 7-month-old rats subjected to water deprivation [6].
 

High impact information on SLC12A1

  • These findings demonstrate the molecular basis of Bartter's syndrome, provide the basis for molecular classification of patients with inherited hypokalaemic alkalosis, and suggest potential phenotypes in heterozygous carriers of NKCC2 mutations [7].
  • We demonstrate linkage of Bartter's syndrome to the renal Na-K-2Cl cotransporter gene NKCC2, and identify frameshift or non-conservative missense mutations for this gene that co-segregate with the disease [7].
  • In contrast with this, and with similar findings using related late promoter-containing plasmids, expression from this promoter was absolutely dependent on DNA replication when it was inserted in the region of SV40 DNA encoding the late mRNA 5' ends and expression was assayed in human HeLa cells and BSC-1 and COS-7 monkey cells [8].
  • To date, two Na-K-Cl cotransporter isoforms have been identified: NKCC1, which is present in a wide variety of secretory epithelia and non-epithelial cells; and NKCC2, which is present exclusively in the kidney, in the epithelial cells of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and of the macula densa [9].
  • We show here that selective blockade of the NKCC2 and KCC2 cotransporters located on starburst dendrites consistently hyperpolarized and depolarized the starburst cells, respectively, and greatly reduced or eliminated their directionally selective light responses [10].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of SLC12A1

 

Biological context of SLC12A1

  • Genetic heterogeneity of hyperprostaglandin E syndrome has been demonstrated by identification of mutations in the SLC12A1 gene as well as in the KCNJ1 gene [15].
  • Two of the genes in this branch ( SLC12A1 and SLC12A3), exhibit kidney-specific expression and function in renal salt reabsorption, whereas the third gene ( SLC12A2) is expressed ubiquitously and plays a key role in epithelial salt secretion and cell volume regulation [2].
  • Substitution of the same residues with corresponding residues from NKCC2 or the Na-Cl cotransporter resulted in cation affinity changes, consistent with the hypothesis that alternative splicing of transmembrane domain 2 endows different versions of NKCC2 with unique kinetic behaviors [16].
  • Under isotonic and hypotonic conditions, NKCC2 retains 50% of its activity in the absence of phosphorylation of the threonine-regulatory domain [17].
  • Because MAb T4 recognizes both the basolateral secretory (NKCC1) and the apical absorptive (NKCC2) isoforms of the co-transporter, we employed reverse transcription and the polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to explore isoform diversity in inner ear tissues [18].
 

Anatomical context of SLC12A1

  • By contrast, NKCC2 (CCC2, BSC1) is found only in the kidney, localized to the apical membrane of the epithelial cells of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and of the macula densa [3].
  • The transport activity of NKCC2, exogenously expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, is shown to be stimulated by hypertonicity [17].
  • NKCC1 mRNA was demonstrated in rat palmar tissue, including sweat glands, using RT-PCR, whereas NKCC2 mRNA was absent [19].
  • Immunocytochemical analysis showed immunopositive staining of hNKCC2 at the plasma membrane for wild-type and all studied mutants [20].
  • A cell growth inhibitor (GI), purified from BSC-1 cell-conditioned medium, has little if any effect on DNA synthesis when added alone to monolayer cultures of quiescent Swiss mouse 3T3 cells in serum-free medium [21].
 

Associations of SLC12A1 with chemical compounds

  • The high conservation of the regulatory threonine residues among NKCC1, NKCC2, and NCC family members, together with the fact that tissues from divergent vertebrate species exhibit similar R5-binding profiles, lends further support to the role of this regulatory locus in vivo [22].
  • Regulatory phosphorylation sites in the NH2 terminus of the renal Na-K-Cl cotransporter (NKCC2) [17].
  • Selective deletions of peptide segments revealed only a minor role for the NH(2)-terminal cytosolic domain of NKCC2 upstream of the threonine regulatory domain, including the recently identified proline alanine-rich Ste-20-related kinase-binding motif [17].
  • Mutations in SLC12A1 coding for the bumetanide-sensitive sodium potassium 2 chloride cotransporter (NKCC2) cause defective reabsorption of sodium chloride in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop [15].
  • Infusion of vasopressin restored the expression of NKCC2 in the outer medulla as well as the expression and the activity of TonEBP [23].
 

Other interactions of SLC12A1

  • GSTM3 and SLC12A1 seem to be promising candidate genes for hypertension in women [1].
  • In conclusion, hyperosmolality, secondary to either glucose or NaCl, upregulated renal AQP2 and NKCC2 in vivo in BB rats [24].
  • Furthermore, interaction with either ATP1A1 or NKCC2 was not detected in both the rat F2 intercross and human hypertension cohorts [25].
  • Regulation of the sodium transporters NHE3, NKCC2 and NCC in the kidney [26].
  • Despite the fact that all of these Bartter's patients had significant hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis was not found in any of the 17 subjects with CLCKB mutations, compared to 19 of 20 patients with NKCC2 or ROMK1 mutations [27].
