G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are implicated in blood pressure (BP) and fluid intake regulation. There is a developing concept that these effects are mediated by both canonical G-protein signaling and non-canonical β-arrestin mediated signaling, but the contributions of each remain largely unexplored. Here, we hypothesized that β-arrestin contributes to fluid homeostasis and blood pressure (BP) regulation in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension, a prototypical model of salt-sensitive hypertension. Global β-arrestin1 (Arrb1) and β-arrestin2 (Arrb2) knockout (KO) mice were employed to evaluate drinking behavior, and BP was evaluated in Arrb2-KO mice. Age- and sex-matched C57BL/6 mice served as controls. We measured intake of water and different sodium chloride solutions and BP employing a two-bottle choice paradigm with and without DOCA. Without DOCA (baseline), Arrb2-KO mice exhibited a significant elevation in saline intake with no change in water intake. With DOCA treatment, Arrb2-KO mice exhibited a significant increase in both saline and water intake. Although, Arrb2-KO mice exhibited hypernatremia at baseline conditions, we did not find significant changes in total body sodium stores or sodium palatability. In a separate cohort, BP was measured via telemetry in Arrb2-KO and C57BL/6 mice with and without DOCA. Arrb2-KO did not exhibit significant differences in BP before DOCA treatment when provided water alone, or when provided a choice of water and saline. However, Arrb2-KO exhibited an increased pressor response to DOCA-salt. These findings suggest that in salt-sensitive hypertension, ARRB2, but not ARRB1, might counterbalance the canonical signaling of GPCRs.
