Abstract

Renal dopamine DA1 receptors are linked to the regulation of sodium transport. We have previously reported the presence of DA1 receptors in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) but not in the distal convoluted tubule. However, the DA1 receptor in the collecting duct, the final determinant of electrolyte transport, has not been studied. DA1 receptors were studied in the microdissected cortical collecting duct (CCD) of rats by autoradiography with use of the selective DA1 radioligand 125I-Sch 23982 and by measurement of adenylate cyclase (AC) activity. Specific binding of 125I-Sch 23982 to CCD was saturable with radioligand concentration. The dissociation constant (Kd) was 0.46 +/- 0.08 nM (n = 5), and the maximum receptor density (Bmax) was 1.41 +/- 0.43 fmol/mg protein (n = 5). The DA1 antagonist Sch 23390 was more effective than the DA1 agonist fenoldopam in competing for specific 125I-Sch 23982 binding. Fenoldopam stimulated AC activity in CCD in a concentration-dependent (10(-9)-10(-6) M) manner. The ability of fenoldopam to stimulate AC activity was similar in CCD and PCT even though DA1 receptor density was 1,000 times greater in the CCD than in the PCT. In additional studies, fenoldopam stimulation of AC activity did not influence vasopressin-stimulated AC activity. We conclude that the DA1 receptor in rat CCD is tightly coupled to AC stimulation and that there is no interaction between DA1 agonist-stimulated and vasopressin-stimulated AC activity in the CCD.
