Expression of the bumetanide-sensitive Na-K-Cl cotransporter BSC2 is differentially regulated by fluid mechanical and inflammatory cytokine stimuli in vascular endothelium.

Abstract: In vascular endothelium, the electroneutral Na-K-Cl cotransport system is thought to function in the maintenance of a selective permeability barrier in certain vascular beds (e.g., brain), as well as in the preservation of endothelial homeostasis in the face of fluctuating osmotic conditions that may accompany certain pathophysiological conditions (e.g., diabetes mellitus). Here we demonstrate that the gene encoding the bumetanide-sensitive cotransporter BSC2, one of the two major isoforms of Na

“…The nitric oxide generated by iNOS could also be directly involved in the initiation and progression of the BE (Sharma et al, 2006) and/or cerebral hyperemia (Brian et al, 1996). Increased iNOS in the CPE also has the potential to disrupt ion transport, given the fact that the Na-K-Cl cotransporter is regulated by inflammatory cytokines (Topper et al, 1997). In contrast, the up regulation of ICAM-1 is unlikely to be mediated by iNOS (Hickey et al, 2006); but likely to be the result of a direct activation by DKA.…”

“…The mechanism, as well as the physiological importance of variations in venous capacitance by furosemide is unknown; it is even not known whether this is mediated via the NKCC transporters. In one study, in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, NKCC2 gene expression was induced by inflammatory cytokines, but whether such induction is present in intact veins and is physiologically significant is unknown (157).…”

“…Vascular MADs represent a class of signaling molecules selectively expressed in vascular endothelium that may function in mediating responses to both the TGF-␤ superfamily of humoral factors and biomechanical forces within the vasculature. Vascular MADs may play a critical role in the ability of endothelium to integrate these diverse stimuli and thus be relevant to a variety of physiologic and pathophysiologic processes in the cardiovascular system (23).…”
