27 Conclusions: Our data are consistent with the idea that EGF and its related growth factors (TGF-α, HB-EGF and amphiregulin) have a biphasic effect on sodium absorption in the mammalian kidney as represented by mpkccd c14 cells. In addition, we show that the EGF effect is mediated via the ErbB2 receptor, most probably via formation of ErbB2/EGFR heterodimers.

35 Conclusions: Co-expression of Rac1 with ENaC markedly increased channel activity, whereas co-expression of Cdc42 failed to change ENaC activity. Inhibition of Rac1-GEF interaction resulted in a decrease of ENaC activity in native principal cells. shrna-mediated silencing of Rac1 inhibits transepithelial current in M-1 cells via decrease in the number of channels at the plasma membrane. Rac1 and WAVE1/2 are parts of the same signaling pathway with respect to activation of ENaC. Thus, our findings suggest that Rac1 is essential for ENaC activity and regulates the channel via WAVE proteins.

47 Conclusions: EGF concentration is reduced in the SS rats fed a high diet, which we propose would enhance ENaC activity, sodium retention and hypertension. Elevation of EGF is associated with diminished sodium reabsorption, an attenuation of hypertension, and a reduction of renal damage in Dahl SS rats fed high salt. EGF deficiency in the renal cortex contributes to salt-sensitive hypertension in Dahl SS rats via upregulation of ENaC activity Thus, elucidation of the interaction between EGF, small GTPases and ENaC will advance our understanding of the basic mechanisms of sodium regulation in salt-dependent forms of hypertension and might provide novel targets and strategies for their treatment.
