Journal ArticleDOI

Role of the D1A dopamine receptor in the pathogenesis of genetic hypertension.

TL;DR: The cosegregation with hypertension of an impaired D1 receptor regulation of renal sodium transport and the development of elevated systolic and diastolic pressure in mice lacking one or both D1A alleles suggest a causal relationship of the D1 A receptor gene with hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dopamine1 Receptor, Gsα, and Na+-H+ Exchanger Interactions in the Kidney in Hypertension

TL;DR: It is concluded that the defective D1 receptor function in renal proximal tubules in SHR is proximal to Gs&agr;/effectors and presumably at the receptor level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of NHE3 activity by G protein subunits in renal brush-border membranes.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided of a direct regulatory role for G(s)alpha, independent of second messengers, in the D(1)-like-mediated inhibition of NHE3 activity in rat renal BBMV and beta/gamma dimers of heterotrimeric G proteins appear to have a stimulatory effect on NHE2 activity in B BMV.
Journal ArticleDOI

D1 dopamine receptor regulation of NHE3 during development in spontaneously hypertensive rats

TL;DR: The studies indicate that the decreased inhibitory effect of D1-like agonists on NHE3 activity in SHRs (compared with WKY rats) precedes the development of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gβ regulation of Na/H exchanger-3 activity in rat renal proximal tubules during development

TL;DR: The decreased inhibitory effect of D(1)-like receptors on NHE activity in BBMV in young rats is caused, in part, by the increased expression and activity of the G protein subunit Gbeta/gamma.
