2. Figure 1
Effect of dopamine (DA) and tyramine in proximal tubule cell [3H]thymidine incorporation. Subconfluent quiescent proximal tubule cell primary cultures were incubated for 24 hours with or without various concentrations of DA (A) or tyramine (B) in presence of [3H]thymidine, as described in the Methods section. In parallel experiments, cells were preincubated with 1 μmol/L pargyline, 1 mmol/L NAC, 20 μmol/L PD 98059, or 3 μmol/L GBR for 30 minutes prior to 5 μmol/L DA (C) or 10 μmol/L tyramine (D) addition. Values are mean ± SEM of three separate experiments made in triplicate. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P <

Dopamine (DA) induces extracellular–regulated kinase (ERK) activation in proximal tubule cells. (A) Proximal tubule cell lysates were prepared following 5 μmol/L DA treatment for the indicated times, as described in the Methods section. Cell lysates were immunoblotted with the antiphosphospecific p42/44 MAPK (anti-pMAPK) or anti-ERK2 antibodies. (B) In parallel experiments, cells were preincubated with or without 1 mmol/L NAC, 1 μmol/L pargyline, 3 μmol/L GBR 12909, 10 μmol/L (-)-sulpiride or SCH for 30 minutes prior to addition of HBSS (C) or 5 μmol/L DA (D) for five minutes. The blots are representative of three experiments.

Tyramine induces ERK activation in proximal tubule cells. (A) Proximal tubule cell lysates were prepared following 10 μmol/L tyramine treatment for the indicated times, as described in the Methods section. Cell lysates were immunoblotted with the antiphosphospecific p42/44 MAPK (anti-pMAPK) or anti-ERK2 antibodies. (B) In parallel experiments, cells were preincubated with or without 1 mmol/L NAC or 1 μmol/L pargyline for 30 minutes prior to addition of HBSS (C) or 10 μmol/L tyramine (T) for five minutes. The blots are representative of three experiments.

Dopamine (DA) and tyramine induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc in proximal tubule cells. (A) Proximal tubule cells were treated with 5 μmol/L DA or 10 μmol/L tyramine for the indicated times. Cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-Shc antibody (IP: Shc) and immunoblotted with antiphosphotyrosine-HRP-conjugated antibody (anti-pTyr) or anti-Shc antibody, as described in the Methods section. (B) In parallel experiments, cells were preincubated with or without 1 mmol/L NAC, 1 μmol/L pargyline, or 3 μmol/L GBR for 30 minutes prior to the addition of HBSS (C), 5 μmol/L DA (D), or 10 μmol/L tyramine (T) for two minutes. The blots are representative of three experiments.

Monoamine oxidase (MAO)-dependent H2O2 production in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK 293) cell lines. (A) Generation of chemiluminescence (CL) was monitored in HEK 293-MAO-B (•) and HEK 293-WT cells (▪) for 30 minutes after tyramine (10 μmol/L) addition (at time indicated by the arrow), as described in the Methods section. In parallel experiments, the HEK 293-MAO B cells were preincubated with 1 μmol/L clorgyline (▵) or Ro (○) for 30 minutes prior to tyramine addition. (B) Cell lysates from HEK 293-WT and HEK 293-MAO-B cells were immunoblotted with a rabbit polyclonal antiserum to both MAO isoforms, as described in the Methods section. Each curve and blot are representative of three separate experiments.

DA induce MAO-dependent Shc tyrosine phosphorylation and ERKs activation in HEK 293 cells. 293-WT (left panels) and 293-MAO-B cells (right panels) were incubated with 5 μmol/L DA for the indicated times. Cell lysates were prepared as described in the Methods section. (A) A part of cell lysates was immunoprecipitated with anti-Shc antibody (IP:Shc) and immunoblotted sequentially with antiphosphotyrosine-HRP–conjugated antibody or anti-Shc antibody. (B) Phosphorylated 42 and 44 kD ERKs and ERK-2 were detected sequentially with antiphospho-MAP kinase (anti-pMAPK) and anti-ERK2 antibodies as described in the Methods section. (C) In parallel experiments, 293-MAO-B cells were preincubated with or without 1 mmol/L NAC or 1 μmol/L pargyline for 30 minutes prior to addition of HBSS (C) or 5 μmol/L DA (D) for five minutes, and phosphorylated 42 and 44 kD ERKs and ERK-2 were detected sequentially. Apparent molecular weights (kD) are indicated on the right. The blots are representative of three experiments.

Effect of DA in HEK 293 cell proliferation. Subconfluent quiescent HEK 293 wild-type (293-WT; □) and transfected cells (293-MAO-B; ) were incubated for 24 hours with or without various concentrations of DA. [3H]thymidine incorporation assay (A) and cell number counting (B) were assessed as described in the Methods section. In parallel experiments, HEK 293-MAO-B cells were preincubated with or without 1 μmol/L pargyline, 1 mmol/L NAC, or 20 μmol/L PD for 30 minutes and incubated for 24 hours with (▪) or without (□) 5 μmol/L DA (DA) prior to [3H]thymidine incorporation assay (C) or cell number counting (D). Values are mean ± SEM of three separate experiments made in triplicate. *P < 0.05; ***P <
