Calcium (Ca2+) has an important role in nearly all types of cellular secretion, with a particularly novel role in the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells in the kidney. In JG cells, Ca2+ inhibits renin secretion, which is a major regulator of blood pressure and renal hemodynamics. However, whether alterations in afferent arteriolar (Af-Art) pressure change intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in JG cells and whether [Ca2+]i comes from extracellular or intracellular sources remains unknown. We hypothesize that increases in perfusion pressure in the Af-Art result in elevations in [Ca2+]i in JG cells. We isolated and perfused Af-Art of C57BL6 mice and measured changes in [Ca2+]i in JG cells in response to perfusion pressure changes. The JG cells’ [Ca2+]i was 93.3 ± 2.2 nm at 60 mm Hg perfusion pressure and increased to 111.3 ± 13.4, 119.6 ± 7.3, 130.3 ± 2.9 and 140.8 ± 12.1 nm at 80, 100, 120 and 140 mm Hg, respectively. At 120 mm Hg, increases in [Ca2+]i were reduced in mice receiving the following treatments: (1) the mechanosensitive cation channel blocker, gadolinium (94.6 ± 7.5 nm); (2) L-type calcium channel blocker, nifedipine (105.8 ± 7.5 nm); and (3) calcium-free solution plus ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (96.0 ± 5.8 nm). Meanwhile, the phospholipase C inhibitor, inositol triphosphate receptor inhibitor, T-type calcium channel blocker, N-type calcium channel blocker and Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor did not influence changes in [Ca2+]i in JG cells. In summary, JG cell [Ca2+]i rise as perfusion pressure increases; furthermore, the calcium comes from extracellular sources, specifically mechanosensitive cation channels and L-type calcium channels.
