Abstract

Dopamine (DA) inhibits rodent proximal tubule Na+,K+-ATPase via stimulation of protein kinase C (PKC). However, direct stimulation of PKC by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) results in increased Na+,K+-ATPase. LY333531, a specific inhibitor of the PKC-beta isoform, prevents PMA-dependent activation of Na+,K+-ATPase, but has no effect on DA inhibition of this activity. A similar result was obtained with a PKC-beta inhibitor peptide. Concentrations of staurosporine, that inhibits PKC-zeta, prevent DA-dependent inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase and a similar effect was obtained with a PKC-zeta inhibitor peptide. Thus, PMA-dependent stimulation of Na+,K+-ATPase is mediated by activation of PKC-beta, whereas inhibition by DA requires activation of PKC-zeta.
