Regulation of aldosterone production from zona glomerulosa cells by ANG II and cAMP: evidence for PKA-independent activation of CaMK by cAMP

Abstract: Aldosterone production in zona glomerulosa (ZG) cells of adrenal glands is regulated by various extracellular stimuli (K ϩ , ANG II, ACTH) that all converge on two major intracellular signaling pathways: an increase in cAMP production and calcium (Ca 2ϩ ) mobilization. However, molecular events downstream of the increase in intracellular cAMP and Ca 2ϩ content are controversial and far from being completely resolved. Here, we found that Ca 2ϩ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs) play a predominant rol… Show more

“…The exact mechanism responsible for the cross talk between the cAMP and CaMK signaling pathways remains to be elucidated. An intriguing possibility that has recently been proposed (71) is that perhaps a cAMP mediator/ adaptor molecule, such as exchange protein directly activated by cAMP, responsible for linking cAMP to the MAPK pathway (72,73), could also be responsible for the cross talk between cAMP and CaMK. Such an adaptor molecule, however, has yet to be identified.…”

“…The role of the CaMK signaling pathway has mainly been studied in adrenal steroidogenic cells where it was found to be involved in the stimulation of aldosterone production in response to angiotensin II and K ϩ (71,(74)(75)(76)(77)(78). Much less is known regarding the CaMK pathway in Leydig cell steroidogenesis, although Ca 2ϩ has been shown to be important for LH-stimulated testosterone production (13,(79)(80)(81).…”

“…Increased intracellular calcium levels are followed by activation of the calcium binding protein calmodulin (CaM) by CaM kinase (CaMK) I and/or CAMK IV (Condon et al 2002). Furthermore, several lines of evidence suggest additional activation of CaMK directly through cAMP dependent effects (Gambaryan et al 2006). CaMK induced phosphorylation of ATF-1 and CREB and transcriptional activation of NGF1-B and Nurr1 in turn induces promotor activation of Cyp11b2 (Bassett et al 2004a).…”

“…cAMP has been reported to activate other kinases in adrenocortical cells and cell lines. cAMP activates CaMK in bovine adrenal zona glomerulosa cells by a PKA-independent mechanism (Gambaryan et al, 2006). The addition of the specific calmodulin antagonist KN-93 (5 M) to the pipette solution in addition to the PKA inhibitors H-89 and PKI (6-22) amide did not blunt bTREK-1 inhibition by 6-Bnz-cAMP (Fig.…”

“…However, they do not exclude the possibility that bTREK-1 inhibition by cAMP could be mediated by pathways independent of both PKA and Epac2. In bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells, cAMP has been reported to activate calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) and stimulate aldosterone secretion through a PKA-and Epac-independent mechanism (Gambaryan et al, 2006). In these same cells, aldosterone secretion is coupled to membrane depolarization by bTREK-1 inhibition (Enyeart et al, 2004).…”
