Traynor et al., Am J Physiol 1999
:
The finding that
COX-2 is critically
involved in macula densa control of
renin secretion indicates that the COX-2 expressing epithelial cells in the tubuloglomerular contact area are a likely source of prostaglandins participating in the signaling pathway between the macula densa and renin producing granular cells
Harding et al., J Hypertens 2000
:
Because of this discrete cortical localization, we hypothesized that
COX-2 plays a role in the chronic stimulation of
renin via the macula densa pathway
Cheng et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2001
:
We and others have previously found that selective
COX-2 inhibitors can
inhibit renal
renin production ( Cheng HF, Wang JL, Zhang MZ, Miyazaki Y, Ichikawa I, McKanna JA, and Harris RC
Harris et al., Curr Opin Nephrol Hypertens 2001
(Gastrointestinal Diseases) :
Cyclooxygenase-2 regulates
renin-angiotensin secretion, and thereby glomerular filtration rate and sodium homeostasis
Höcherl et al., Pflugers Arch 2001
:
In summary, these findings, obtained when the renin system was activated by AT1 receptor blockade, indicate that Ang II is not required to stimulate COX-2 expression and that
COX-2 activity is not
required to stimulate
renin expression
Deray et al., Presse Med 2001
(Acute Kidney Injury...) :
The regulatory
role of
Cox-2 on
renin production has been demonstrated in the macula densa
Reinalter et al., Kidney Int 2002
(Bartter Syndrome...) :
This observation proves the stimulatory
role of
COX-2 on
renin-secretion in salt-depletion in humans
Hartner et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2003
(Disease Models, Animal...) :
We tested whether
COX-2 is
required to increase
renin in renovascular hypertension ... We conclude that inhibition of
COX-2 in established renovascular hypertension does not
affect renin synthesis or release
Castrop et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2003
(Renal Artery Obstruction) :
Because across-the-board data indicate that
renin and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in the kidney cortex are regulated in parallel and because ANG II can
inhibit COX-2 expression, the purpose of our study was to characterize a potential general inhibitory feedback of the renin-angiotensin system on renocortical COX-2 expression in vivo
Okumura et al., Hypertens Res 2002
(Hypertension...) :
The
COX-2 inhibitor
caused no significant changes in MBP, plasma
renin activity, or urinary excretion, suggesting that COX-2 made a lesser contribution in this model
Stubbe et al., Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 2003
:
Cyclooxygenase-2 contributes to elevated
renin in the early postnatal period in rats
Harris et al., J Hypertens Suppl 2002
(Kidney Diseases) :
COX-2 expression
increases in high-renin states ( salt restriction, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition, renovascular hypertension ) and selective COX-2 inhibitors significantly decrease plasma
renin levels, renal renin activity and mRNA expression
Paliege et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2004
:
To further explore the
role of nNOS and
COX-2 in
renin secretion, we determined plasma renin activity in mice deficient in nNOS or COX-2
Harris et al., Acta Physiol Scand 2004
:
In isolated perfused glomerular preparations,
renin release induced by macula densa perfusion with a low chloride solution was
inhibited by a
COX-2 inhibitor but not a COX-1 inhibitor
Jensen et al., Acta Physiol Scand 2004
:
Studies with selective inhibitors of COX-2 and COX-2 null mice show that
COX-2 activity
stimulates renin secretion from JG-cells during postnatal kidney development and that lack of COX-2 activity leads to pathological change in cortical architecture and eventually to renal failure
Fujino et al., J Clin Invest 2004
(Genetic Predisposition to Disease...) :
PGI2 is produced by
COX-2 and a selective inhibitor of this enzyme, SC-58125, also significantly
reduced the increases in plasma
renin activity and renin mRNA expression in WT mice with renal artery stenosis, but these effects were absent in IP-/- mice
Stichtenoth et al., Kidney Int 2005
(Body Weight) :
Effects of specific
COX-2-inhibition on
renin release and renal and systemic prostanoid synthesis in healthy volunteers ...
Renin-release in healthy humans with normal salt intake is
COX-2 dependent
Yabuki et al., Exp Anim 2006
(Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2...) :
Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and
cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) regulate the tubuloglomerular feedback ( TGF ) and
renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the kidney
Kim et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2007
:
In conclusion, chronic absence of
COX-2 reduces
renin expression, release, and PRC and is associated with a reduced ability to alter PRC during acute stimulation regardless of the nature of the stimulus
Matzdorf et al., American journal of physiology. Renal physiology 2007
(Hypertension, Renovascular) :
The
role of
cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) in the control of
renin is still a matter of debate, since studies with COX-2-deficient mice or with COX-2 inhibitors produced conflicting findings ... These findings indicate that
COX-2 inhibition
attenuates renin secretion and
renin gene expression stimulated by a variety of parameters in proportion to the lowering of basal renin activity, while it does not interfere with the different stimulatory mechanism per se
Wagner et al., Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 2007
:
Increased expression of
cyclooxygenase 2 contributes to aberrant
renin production in connexin 40-deficient kidneys ... In Cx40-deficient kidneys, basal
renin mRNA levels were increased two-fold relative to wt kidneys, and these elevated mRNA levels were
reduced to levels of untreated wt mice by
COX-2 inhibitors
Harris et al., Curr Opin Nephrol Hypertens 2008
(Kidney Diseases) :
There are also indications that macula densa
cyclooxygenase-2 expression may be
regulated by the
prorenin/renin receptor
Zhang et al., Hypertension 2009
:
Because macula densa
COX-2 stimulates renal
renin expression, our current studies investigated dopamine regulation of renal renin release and synthesis in vivo ... These results suggest that dopamine predominantly
inhibits renal
renin expression and release by inhibiting macula densa
COX-2 , but suppression of renal cortical COX-2 activity reveals a contrasting effect of dopamine to stimulate renal renin expression through activation of D1-like receptors
Mitchell et al., Placenta 1996
:
Moreover,
renin treatment of both decidual and amnion cells
induced increased levels of
PGHS-2 within 2 h. Collectively, these results indicate that renin can act directly, separately from the generation of angiotensin-I and II
Hartner et al., Hypertension 1998
(Hypertension, Renovascular) :
Our data are consistent with a
role for macula densa
cyclooxygenase-2 in the regulation of
renin in renovascular hypertension
