| Abstract | Calcineurin (Cn) inhibitors (CnI) such as cyclosporine A (CsA) and FK506 are nephrotoxic immunosuppressant drugs, which decrease tubular function. Here, we examined the direct effect of CnI on aquaporin-2 (AQP2) expression in rat primary cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells. CsA (0.5–5 μM) but not FK 506 (0.01–1 μM) decreased expression of AQP2 protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) in a concentration and time dependent manner, without affecting mRNA stability. This effect was observed despite similar inhibition of Cn activity by both CnI, thereby suggesting that the CsA-dependent decrease in AQP2 expression was Cn independent. Another inhibitor of cyclophilin A, the primary intracellular target of CsA, had no effect on AQP2 expression. In order to investigate the mechanism of decreased AQP2 transcription, we studied activation status of two suggested transcriptional regulators of AQP2, cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB), and tonicity enhancer binding protein (TonEBP). Localization of TonEBP, as well as TonEBP-mediated gene transcription, was not affected by CsA. Phosphorylation of CREB at an activating phosphorylation site (S133) was decreased by CsA, but not by FK506. However, both CnI did not affect cellular cAMP levels. We show that CsA decreases transcription of AQP2, a process that is in part independent of Cn or cyclophilin A and suggests dependence on decreased activity of CREB. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
