Sodium excretion is bidirectionally regulated by dopamine, acting on D1-like receptors (D1R) and angiotensin II, acting on AT1 receptors (AT1R). Since sodium excretion has to be regulated with great precision within a short frame of time, we tested the short-term effects of agonist binding on the function of the reciprocal receptor within the D1R-AT1R complex in renal proximal tubule cells. Exposure of rat renal proximal tubule cells to a D1 agonist was found to result in a rapid partial internalization of AT1R and complete abolishment of AT1R signaling. Similarly, exposure of rat proximal tubule cells and renal tissue to angiotensin II resulted in a rapid partial internalization of D1R and abolishment of D1R signaling. D1R and AT1R were, by use of coimmunoprecipitation studies and glutathione- S-transferase pull-down assays, shown to be partners in a multiprotein complex. Na+-K+-ATPase, the target for both receptors, was included in this complex, and a region in the COOH-terminal tail of D1R (residues 397-416) was found to interact with both AT1R and Na+-K+-ATPase. Results indicate that AT1R and D1R function as a unit of opposites, which should provide a highly versatile and sensitive system for short-term regulation of sodium excretion.
