ABSTRACT
Calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) has been implicated in the regulation of transport processes in a variety of tissues and cell lines. To establish whether protein kinase C participates in the regulation of renal phosphate transport, we examined the effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), a potent activator of protein kinase C, on phosphate uptake in fresh preparations of mouse renal tubules, and we correlated the changes in transport activity with protein kinase C activation and phosphorylation of endogenous proteins. PMA inhibited Na+-dependent phosphate transport, elicited a rapid translocation of protein kinase C from the cytosolic to the particulate fraction and stimulated the phosphorylation of endogenous substrates in the cytosolic and brush border membrane fractions. Effects of PMA were maximal after a 10 min incubation of the tubules with the activator. 4 alpha-Phorbol, an inert analogue of PMA, did not elicit any of these effects. The present results demonstrate a temporal correlation between inhibition of Na+-dependent phosphate transport, translocation and activation of protein kinase C, and phosphorylation of endogenous proteins in mouse renal tubules. These data suggest that protein kinase C may play a regulatory role in phosphate transport in mammalian kidney.
