Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The differences in biological functions between alpha-human atrial natriuretic polypeptide (alpha-hANP) and its oxidized analog, MetSO-alpha-hANP, have been investigated. Analysis of the ANP receptor subtypes by affinity labeling has shown that a bovine pulmonary aortic endothelial cell line (CPAE cells) primarily expresses ANP-R1 (R, receptor) coupled to particulate guanylate cyclase, while Hela cells from human cervical carcinoma predominantly express ANP-R2, which lacks a guanylate cyclase. alpha-hANP could bind to both ANP receptor subtypes with high affinity, while MetSO-alpha-hANP showed more selective binding to ANP-R2 than to ANP-R1. The activity of MetSO-alpha-hANP for stimulation of guanylate cyclase coupled to ANP-R1 was about 520-fold less than that of alpha-hANP (median effective dose = 2.5 nM for alpha-hANP, 1.3 microM for MetSO-alpha-hANP), indicating that MetSO-alpha-hANP was a partial agonist for this receptor. While this oxidized analog could inhibit the cAMP production through ANP-R2, with 0.15 times the activity of alpha-hANP (median concentration = 0.31 nM for alpha-hANP, 2.0 nM for MetSO-alpha-hANP). In in vivo studies, the diuretic activity of MetSO-alpha-hANP was 25-100-fold less than that of alpha-hANP. In addition, MetSO-alpha-hANP could potentiate the diuretic activity of alpha-hANP that was also caused by C-ANF4-23, a specific agonist for ANP-R2. These results demonstrate that MetSO-alpha-hANP can act as an agonist more selective for ANP-R2 than for ANP-R1, both in vivo and in vitro. The relationship between receptor selectivities and the conformation of alpha-hANP or MetSO-alpha-hANP was also discussed.
