NFAT5 Is Involved in GRP-Enhanced Secretion of GLP-1 by Sodium.

International journal of molecular sciences | 2021

Gastrin, secreted by G-cells, and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), secreted by L-cells, may participate in the regulation of sodium balance. We studied the effect of sodium in mice in vivo and mouse ileum and human L-cells, on GLP-1 secretion, and the role of NFAT5 and gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) in this process. A high-sodium diet increases serum GLP-1 levels in mice. Increasing sodium concentration stimulates GLP-1 secretion from mouse ileum and L-cells. GRP enhances the high sodium-induced increase in GLP-1 secretion. High sodium increases cellular GLP-1 expression, while low and high sodium concentrations increase NFAT5 and GRPR expression. Silencing NFAT5 in L-cells abrogates the stimulatory effect of GRP on the high sodium-induced GLP-1 secretion and protein expression, and the sodium-induced increase in GRPR expression. GLP-1 and gastrin decrease the expression of Na+-K+/ATPase and increase the phosphorylation of sodium/hydrogen exchanger type 3 (NHE3) in human renal proximal tubule cells (hRPTCs). This study gives a new perspective on the mechanisms of GLP-1 secretion, especially that engendered by ingested sodium, and the ability of GLP-1, with gastrin, to decrease Na+-K+/ATPase expression and NHE3 function in hRPTCs. These results may contribute to the better utilization of current and future GLP-1-based drugs in the treatment of hypertension.
