Opis:: The aim of this study was to identify SNPs in leptin (LEP), leptin receptor (LEPR) and growth hormone (GH) genes in order to analyze genetic diversity of Slovak Spotted cattle. The total numbers of blood samples were taken from 353 Slovak Spotted cows originating from four farms. Genomic DNA was isolated by phenol-chloroform extraction method and analyzed by PCR-RFLP method. After digestion with restriction, enzymes were detected in whole population of cow's alleles with frequency: LEP/Sau3AI A 0.84 and B 0.16 (±0.0152); LEPR/BseGI C 0.95 and T 0.05 (±0.0089) and GH/AluI L 0.70 and V 0.30 (±0.0188). Based on the observed vs. expected genotypes frequencies populations across loci were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P\>0.05). Predominant for SNP LEP/Sau3AI was AA genotype (0.70), for SNP LEPR/T945M CC genotype (0.91), and LL genotype (0.48) was most frequent for SNP GH/AluI. The observed heterozygosity of SNPs across populations was also transferred to the low or median polymorphic information content 0.24 (He 0.28), 0.08 (He 0.09) and 0.33 (He 0.47) for LEP, LEPR and GH genes, respectively. Within genetic variability estimating negative values of fixation indexes FIS (-0.09-0.05) and FIT (-0.07-0.03) indicating heterozygote excess were observed. The value of FST indexes (0.018-0.023) shows very low levels of genetic differentiation in allele frequencies of loci among evaluated subpopulations. The low values of genetic distances (0.0018-0.0159) indicated high genetic relatedness among animals in subpopulations caused probably by common ancestry used in breeding program at farms.

Opis:: Leptin and leptin receptor genes are considered as production traits markers in dairy or beef cattle. The aim of this study was to verify the associations of polymorphisms in bovine LEP and LEPR genes with production and reproduction traits in Slovak Spotted and Pinzgau cows. Long-life production was evaluated: milk, protein, and fat yield and reproduction traits: age at first calving, calving interval, days open, and insemination interval. In total, 296 blood samples of Slovak Spotted and 85 hair roots samples of Pinzgau cows were analyzed. In order to detect LEP/Sau3AI (BTA 4, inron 2) and LEPR/T945M (BTA 3, exon 20) genotypes PCR-RFLP method was used. In Slovak Spotted and Pinzgau cows allele frequencies were 0.838/0.162 and 0.694/0.306 for A and B LEP variants, and 0.954/0.046 and 0.912/0.088 for C and T LEPR variants, respectively. For testing the associations between SNPs LEP/Sau3AI and LEPR/T945M and evaluated traits, the General Linear Model procedure in SAS Software was used. Statistical analysis showed that SNP LEP/Sau3AI significantly affected milk, protein and fat yield (P<0.05), and age at first calving (P<0.01) in analyzed population of cows. Statistically, SNP LEPR/T945M affected significantly calving interval (P<0.01) only. Results of our study suggest that especially leptin is a candidate gene, which influences mainly milk production traits and might be implemented in breeding strategies to improve the production performance of both analyzed cattle breeds.

Opis:: Apart from Na+,K+-ATPase, a second sodium pump, Na+-stimulated, K+-independent ATPase (Na+-ATPase) is expressed in proximal convoluted tubule of the mammalian kidney. The aim of this study was to develop a method of Na+-ATPase assay based on the method previously used by us to measure Na+,K+-ATPase activity (Acta Biochim Polon.; 2002, 49: 515-27). The ATPase activity was assayed as the amount of inorganic phosphate liberated from ATP by isolated microsomal fraction. Na+-ATPase activity was calculated as the difference between the activities measured in the presence and in the absence of 50 mM NaCl. Na+-ATPase activity was detected in the renal cortex (3.5 ± 0.2 μmol phosphate/h per mg protein), but not in the renal medulla. Na+-ATPase was not inhibited by ouabain or an H+,K+-ATPase inhibitor, Sch 28080, but was almost completely blocked by 2 mM furosemide. Leptin administered intraperitoneally (1 mg/kg) decreased the Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the renal medulla at 0.5 and 1 h by 22.1% and 27.1%, respectively, but had no effect on Na+-ATPase in the renal cortex. Chronic hyperleptinemia induced by repeated subcutaneous leptin injections (0.25 mg/kg twice daily for 7 days) increased cortical Na+,K+-ATPase, medullary Na+,K+-ATPase and cortical Na+-ATPase by 32.4%, 84.2% and 62.9%, respectively. In rats with dietary-induced obesity, the Na+,K+- ATPase activity was higher in the renal cortex and medulla by 19.7% and 34.3%, respectively, but Na+-ATPase was not different from control. These data indicate that both renal Na+-dependent ATPases are separately regulated and that up-regulation of Na+-ATPase may contribute to Na+ retention and arterial hypertension induced by chronic hyperleptinemia.

Opis:: Aim: Adiponectin and leptin are two adipokines playing important roles in the regulation of body weight, appetite, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) adipokines accumulate in serum due to reduced renal clearance. Since adipokines have pleiotropic actions, the adipokine balance may have an impact on peritoneal membrane transport. The aim of this study was to assess whether serum adiponectin and leptin levels were related to peritoneal transport and residual renal function (RRF) in newly started peritoneal dialysis patients. Methods: 25 clinically stable patients, 4 to 6 weeks after the onset of PD, were included in the study. For each patient clinical and laboratory data were reviewed and standard PET test was performed. Serum adiponectin and leptin concentrations were determined and leptin/adiponectin (L/A) ratio was calculated. Results: Serum adiponectin correlated negatively with weight, BMI and glucose concentration. Serum leptin and L/A ratio correlated positively with BMI. Serum adiponectin correlated positively with dialysate to plasma (D/P) creatinine ratio and ultrafiltration in PET test. Serum leptin level and L/A ratio correlated strongly negatively with peritoneal creatinine clearance. Conclusions: Serum adiponectin concentration is positively associated with baseline solute transport. Leptin concentration and L/A ratio are negatively associated with dialysis adequacy in newly started PD patients.

Opis:: The aim of this work was to develop a method for renal H+,K+-ATPase measurement based on the previously used Na+,K+-ATPase assay (Bełtowski et al.: J Physiol Pharmacol.; 1998, 49: 625-37). ATPase activity was assessed by measuring the amount of inorganic phosphate liberated from ATP by isolated microsomal fraction. Both ouabain-sensitive and ouabain-resistant K+-stimulated and Na+-independent ATPase activity was detected in the renal cortex and medulla. These activities were blocked by 0.2 mM imidazolpyridine derivative, Sch 28080. The method for ouabain- sensitive H+,K+-ATPase assay is characterized by good reproducibility, linearity and recovery. In contrast, the assay for ouabain-resistant H+,K+-ATPase was unsatisfactory, probably due to low activity of this enzyme. Ouabain-sensitive H+,K+-ATPase was stimulated by K+ with Km of 0.26 ± 0.04 mM and 0.69 ± 0.11 mM in cortex and medulla, respectively, and was inhibited by ouabain (Ki of 2.9 ± 0.3 μM in the renal cortex and 1.9 ± 0.4 μM in the renal medulla) and by Sch 28080 (Ki of 1.8 ± 0.5 μM and 2.5 ± 0.9 μM in cortex and medulla, respectively). We found that ouabain-sensitive H+,K+-ATPase accounted for about 12% of total ouabain-sensitive activity in the Na+,K+-ATPase assay. Therefore, we suggest to use Sch 28080 during Na+,K+-ATPase measurement to block H+,K+-ATPase and improve the assay specificity. Leptin administered intraperitoneally (1 mg/kg) decreased renal medullary Na+,K+-ATPase activity by 32.1% at 1 h after injection but had no effect on H+,K+-ATPase activity suggesting that the two renal ouabain-sensitive ATPases are separately regulated.

Opis:: Leptin, secreted by adipose tissue, is involved in the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension, however, the mechanisms through which leptin increases blood pressure are incompletely elucidated. We investigated the effect of leptin, administered for different time periods, on renal Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the rat. Leptin was infused under anesthesia into the abdominal aorta proximally to the renal arteries for 0.5-3 h. Leptin administered at doses of 1 and 10 µg/min per kg for 30 min decreased the Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the renal medulla. This effect disappeared when the hormone was infused for ≥1 h. Leptin infused for 3 h increased the Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the renal cortex and medulla. The stimulatory effect was abolished by a specific inhibitor of Janus kinases (JAKs), tyrphostin AG490, as well as by an NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor, apocynin. Leptin increased urinary excretion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) between 2 and 3 h of infusion. The effect of leptin on renal Na+,K+-ATPase and urinary H2O2 was augmented by a superoxide dismutase mimetic, tempol, and was abolished by catalase. In addition, infusion of H2O2 for 30 min increased the Na+,K+-ATPase activity. Inhibitors of extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERKs), PD98059 or U0126, prevented Na+,K+-ATPase stimulation by leptin and H2O2. These data indicate that leptin, by acting directly within the kidney, has a delayed stimulatory effect on Na+,K+-ATPase, mediated by JAKs, H2O2 and ERKs. This mechanism may contribute to the abnormal renal Na+ handling in diseases associated with chronic hyperleptinemia such as diabetes and obesity.
