TNFalpha is known to inhibit renin gene expression in juxtaglomerular (JG) cells, which are the main source of renin in vivo. In the present study we aimed to characterize the intracellular mechanisms of TNFalpha signaling to renin gene in the mouse JG cell line As4.1. TNFalpha was found to activate nuclear factor NFkB, which is one of the principal intracellular mediators of TNFalpha signal transduction. Constitutive activation of NFkB suppressed renin gene transcription, but NFkB appeared not to target the NFkB binding sites in the renin promoter. Thus, NFkB, but not the canonical NFkB binding sequences in the renin promoter, seemed to be involved in the suppression of renin transcription by TNFalpha . Deletion/mutation analysis revealed that the effect of TNFalpha on renin gene is transmitted by a cAMP Responsive Element (CRE) located at -2697 to -2690. Mobility shift/supershift assays evidenced for the presence of NFkB proteins in the complex that binds to mouse renin CRE. Our results strongly suggest that NFkB mediates the effect of TNFalpha on renin transcription targeting a CRE in the mouse renin promoter.
