Sulfonylurea agents exert their physiological effects in many cell types via binding to specific sulfonylurea receptors (SUR). SUR couple to inwardly-rectifying K+ channel (Kir6.x) to form tetradimeric ATP-sensitive K+ channels (KATP). The SUR subunits confer ATP-sensitivity on KATP and also provide the binding sites for sulfonylureas and other pharmacological agents. Our previous work demonstrated that the exposure of mesangial cells (MC) to sulfonylureas generated profound effects on MC glucose uptake and matrix metabolism and induced heightened cell contractility in association with Ca2+ transients. Because these responses likely resulted from the binding of sulfonylurea to a mesangial SUR2, we subsequently documented [3H]-glibenclamide binding to MC and the gene expression of several mesangial SUR2 transcripts. From these data, we inferred that MC expressed the components of a mesangial KATP and sought to establish their presence in primary MC.
Sulfonylurea agents exert their physiologic effects via binding to specific sulfonylurea receptors (SUR) in adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels. Mesangial cells express K(ATP) and respond to sulfonylureas by altering glucose metabolism, elevating intracellular calcium and contracting. A putative endogenous sulfonylurea, alpha-endosulfine, has been demonstrated in diverse tissues and is a member of the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-regulated family of phosphoproteins. This study investigates mesangial cell expression of ENSA, the gene encoding alpha-endosulfine, and its regulation by glucose.
