Inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase activity by dopamine is an important mechanism by which
renal tubules modulate urine sodium excretion during a high salt diet. However, the
molecular mechanisms of this regulation are not clearly understood. Inhibition of Na+, K+-
ATPase activity in response to dopamine is associated with endocytosis of its α-and β-
subunits, an effect that is protein kinase C-dependent. In this study we used isolated
proximal tubule cells and a cell line derived from opossum kidney and demonstrate that …
