Abstract
Sodium-dependent dicarboxylate cotransporter (NaDC), which is responsible for the transportation of intermediates of the Krebs cycle, has been implicated in extending the life span of drosophila. In the present study, we cloned an intracellular domain segment of human kidney NaDC-3, which is 75% identical to that of the rat, constructed a polyclonal antibody against fusion protein of glutathione S-transferase (GST)-NaDC-3, and detected its renal expression changes with aging in both Wistar rats and normal humans. Western blot and immunohistochemistry confirmed the specificity of the antibody, and its location was found to be on the basolateral membrane of the renal proximal tubule. In addition, Western and Northern blots showed that NaDC-3 in kidneys significantly increased with age in Wistar rats. In healthy humans, renal NaDC-3 abundance also increased with age. Our results demonstrated that NaDC-3 expression was increased in aged Wistar rats and aged people, indicating that NaDC-3 may have a role in the process of kidney aging.

<title></title>
<p>SODIUM-DEPENDENT dicarboxylate cotransporter (NaDC) is in a family of transmembrane proteins that are responsible for transportation of intermediates of Krebs cycle, such as succinate, α-ketoglutarate, and citrate (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B1">1</xref>). NaDC family members were mainly distributed in vital organs of the body, such as the kidney, liver, brain, and placenta. It has been demonstrated that there are at least two types of NaDC in the kidney according to their affinities for the substrates. NaDC-1 has a lower affinity and is located in the brush border of the renal proximal tubule of the kidney, while NaDC-3 has a higher affinity and is in the basolateral membrane of the proximal tubule (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B2">2</xref>). NaDC members can be involved in energy metabolism, secretion of organic anions, regulation of the acid–base balance, metabolism of amino acid, synthesis of glucocorticoid, and can also play a part in the pathogenesis of nephrolithiasis (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B3">3–6</xref>).</p>
<p>In 2000, Rogina and colleagues (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B7">7</xref>) reported that mutation of the Indy gene in drosophila, which shared 50% homology with NaDC, extended its average life span to twice that of the wild type, suggesting a role of NaDC in regulating life expectancy. At present, knowledge of the NaDC family is very limited, especially of NaDC-3. Apart from its involvement in transportation, NaDC-3 is rarely known for its other functions, such as in the aging process of rats and humans. In the present study, we hypothesize that NaDC-3 expression may have changes during the aging process. So for the first time, we established a polyclonal antibody against human NaDC-3-GST (glutathione-S-transferase) fusion protein, whose sequence has very high homology with that of the rat, and detected NaDC-3 expression in the kidney tissues of both aging rats and aging humans in order to explore its relationship with aging.</p>

<title>Experimental Tissue</title>
<p>Two New Zealand white male rabbits weighing 2.0–3.0 kg were purchased from the Experimental Animal Center of the General Hospital of PLA (Beijing, China). Eighteen male Wistar rats, ages of 3, 12, and 24 months, respectively, were obtained from the colony kept in the Experimental Animal Center of the General Hospital of PLA (Beijing, China), which originated from the strain of the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products (Beijing, China). The rats were housed 2 per cage (cage size 60 cm × 45 cm × 35 cm) in climate-controlled quarters, the relative humidity and ambient temperature of which were 45% and 23°C, respectively, under a 12-hour light/dark cycle. The rats were fed ad libitum water and standard laboratory chow with a composition of 25% protein, 5% fat, 56% carbohydrate, 8% ash, and 6% cellulose. Specific pathogen-free monitoring included routine testing of the following. The agents specifically excluded from the Wistar rat colony included virus (Sendai virus, rat corona virus, and rat parvovirus), bacterias (mycoplasma pulmonis, corynebacterium, and clostridium), and parasites (endoparasites, tapeworms, protozoa, and ectoparasites). The animal facilities fulfilled the requirements of the Chinese laws on the protection of animals. The renal biopsy samples were obtained from 15 normal human kidneys unmatched for transplantation, with a male to female ratio of 12 to 3, ranging in age from 6 to 65 years. To observe the renal tissue structure, a routine periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining method was used.</p>

<title>Induction of GST-hNaDC-3 Fusion Protein Expression</title>
<p>The JM109/pGEX-hNaDC-3 was cultured at 37°C until log phase (∼2–3 hours). After addition of lactose analog IPTG (final concentration 0.1–1.0 mmol/L), the JM109/pGEX-hNaDC-3 was cultured, respectively, at 37°C, 32°C, and 30°C, for 1–5 hours. JM109/pGEX-5X-1 without hNADC-3 was used as a negative control. After centrifugation, both the supernatant and pellet underwent 15% SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide) gel electrophoresis.</p>

<title>Preparation and Purification of Anti-GST-hNaDC-3 Antibody</title>
<p>One hundred μg purified fusion protein antigen was mixed with equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant for emulsification, then injected hypodermically into the back of a rabbit, and repeated after 3, 6, and 9 weeks. Nine weeks after immunization, when immunodiffusion assay showed that the titer was up to 1:32, blood was collected from the rabbit carotid artery in sterile glass bottles, incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes, and stored at room temperature overnight. The serum obtained was centrifuged at 3000 <italic>g</italic> for 20 minutes, and the supernatant was just the antiserum wanted for use, which was then diluted with equal volume of PBS (0.1 mol/L Na<sub>3</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>, 0.15 mol/L NaCl, pH 7.2), loaded onto an immobilized GST affinity chromatography column, and washed with PBS. Finally the purified anti-hNaDC-3 antibody was collected, while the anti-GST antibody was obtained through elution with 6 mol/L guanidine hydrochloride.</p>

<p>The purified fusion protein GST-hNaDC-3 was boiled for denature, loaded onto 15% SDS-PAGE gel for electrophoresis, and transferred to nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 12 hours in a cold room. Then the nitrocellulose membrane was incubated with 3% BSA for 3 hours to block nonspecific sites, and incubated with 1:500 anti-hNaDC-3 antiserum or normal serum of the same rabbit for 2 hours at room temperature. After being washed with TBS containing 0.1% (v/v) Tween 20, the membrane was incubated for 2 hours with goat antirabbit IgG coupled with horseradish peroxidase.

<title>Detection of NaDC-3 Expression With Immunohistochemistry</title>
<p>Kidney tissue was obtained from rat and human biopsy samples. The paraffin-embedded sections were routinely dewaxed, digested with 0.075% trypsin at 37°C for 15 minutes for antigen recovery, blocked with normal goat serum at 37°C for 1 hour, incubated with 1:2500 anti-hNaDC-3 antibody at 37°C for 1 hour, incubated with goat antirabbit IgG-biotin at room temperature for 15 minutes, and finally incubated with streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase at room temperature for 15 minutes. DAB-H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> was used for color development. As for immunohistochemistry double-staining, both anti-hNaDC-1 antibody and anti-hNaDC-3 antibody were applied. First, paraffin-embedded sections were dewaxed, antigen-recovered with a microwave, blocked with normal goat serum, incubated with 1:2500 anti-hNaDC-1 antibody, incubated with goat antirabbit IgG-biotin, and finally incubated with streptavidin-AKP at room temperature for 15 minutes. Substrate BCIP (5-bromo, 4-chloro, 3-indolylphosphate)/NBT (nitroblue tetrazolium) was used for color development. The second round of immunohistochemistry assay with anti-hNaDC-3 antibody was performed in the same way as shown above.</p>

<title>Northern Blot Analysis of NaDC-3 mRNA Expression in Rat Kidneys</title>
<p>From 2 × 2 × 3 mm kidney tissue sections from Wistar rats, total RNA was extracted with RNAzol reagent according to the manufacturer's instruction. The RNA pellets were dissolved in DEPC-treated water and quantified with a spectrophotometer. Twenty μg total RNA was electrophoresed on 1% agarose gel containing 2.2% formaldehyde, and transferred onto a nylon membrane by capillary blotting. The NaDC-3 cDNA probe were randomly labeled with <sup>32</sup>P-dCTP for 24 hours and then hybridized. The Northern blots were exposed to X-ray films at −70°C for appropriate periods of time.</p>

<title>Western Blot Analysis for NaDC-3 Expression in Kidneys of Wistar Rats</title>
<p>Half of the left kidney of each rat was homogenized on ice with a Teflon glass homogenizer containing 5 ml lysis buffer (2% SDS, 10% glyceride, 20 mmol/L Tris, at pH 7.2, 10 mmol/L dithiothreitol, 0.1 mmol/L phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 20 μmol/L leupeptin, 0.5 mmol/L EDTA, 0.5 mmol/L EGTA). Homogenates were centrifuged at 12,000 rpm, 4°C for 15 minutes. The supernatants contained the protein desired, the concentration of which was determined with Coomassie bright blue assay. Twenty-five μg sample protein was mixed with an equal volume of sample buffer, boiled for 5 minutes, electrophoresed on a 12% SDS-polyacrylamide gel at room temperature for 60 minutes, and transferred to nitrocellulose filters (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Bjorkgatan, Uppsala, Sweden). The membrane was blocked with tris-buffered saline (TBS) solution containing 3% BSA, incubated with rabbit antisera against NaDC-3 at room temperature for 60 minutes, and the binding was detected with the horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody system. After rinsing with TBS solution, the membranes were incubated with 0.8 mmol/L diaminobenzidine (DAB) containing 0.01 % H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> for color reaction. Western blotting was controlled by using antiactin antibody.</p>

<title>Properties of hNaDC-3 and Its Antigen Epitopes</title>
<p>As shown in <xref rid="F01">Figure 1</xref>, hNaDC-3 was constituted by an abundance of hydrophobic amino acids. The amino-terminal intracellular domain 155–226, consisting of 72 amino acids (encoded by 482-697 DNA fragment, 216 bp), had a pliable structure, easily accessible surface, good hydrophilic activity, and a higher antigen index number. Therefore, this sequence was selected as the immunogen peptide.</p>

<title>Amplification and Sequencing of the DNA Fragment Encoding the Peptide as Immunogen</title>
<p>The target 216 bp cDNA segment encoding the immunogen peptide in hNaDC-3 was amplified by RT-PCR from total RNA extracted from normal human kidney tissue, and directly cloned into pGEM-T vector after purification. As shown in <xref rid="F02">Figure 2</xref>, two sites for restriction endonucleases EcoR I and Sal I, respectively, had been designed for both ends. There was also a stop codon TAA introduced at its 3′ end. The sequencing result showed that no mutations occurred.</p>

<title>Construction of the Expression Vector of GST-hNaDC-3 Fusion Protein</title>
<p>The flow chart for construction of recombinant expression vector pGEX-hNaDC-3 is shown in <xref rid="F03">Figure 3</xref>. Briefly, recombinant pGEX-hNaDC-3 was constructed by cutting out the target cDNA fragment of hNaDC-3 from pGEM-T vector with EcoR I and Sal, then inserted into pGEX-5X-1, which had also been digested with EcoR I and Sal. It was demonstrated that a 236 bp fragment (containing two primer sequences of 10 bp each) was cut out from the recombinant pGEX-hNaDC-3 with EcoR I and Sal (<xref rid="F04">Figure 4</xref>). DNA sequencing confirmed that this recombinant vector contained the 482–697 nucleotide sequence encoding the 155–226 amino acids in the intracellular domain of hNaDC-3, indicating that the opening reading frame was correct.</p>

<title>Induction and Purification of GST-hNaDC-3 Fusion Protein</title>
<p>Competent <italic>E. coli</italic> JM109, transformed with pGEX-5X-1 or pGEX-hNaDC-3, was induced with IPTG (0.1–1.0 mmol/L) at 37°C, 32°C, and 30°C, for 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours, respectively, to optimize the best induction conditions. Protein samples, obtained under each induction condition, underwent SDS-PAGE electrophoresis for analysis. As shown in <xref rid="F05">Figure 5</xref>, protein samples isolated from <italic>E. coli</italic> transformed with empty pGEX-5X-1 showed a band of 26 kD, indicative of GST protein, while protein samples extracted from <italic>E. coli</italic> transformed with recombinant pGEX-hNaDC-3 displayed a band of 34 kD, indicative of fusion protein, consisted of 26 kD GST and 8 kD hNaDC-3. It was found that protein abundance peaked at 32°C–37°C, 3 hours after induction with IPTG (data not shown). Different concentrations of IPTG (0.1–1.0 mmol/L) did not alter the expression level of the fusion protein (data not shown). Scanning analysis of the wet SDS-PAGE gel, stained with Coomassie bright blue, showed that the amount of GST-hNaDC-3 fusion protein was approximately 25% of the total protein of <italic>E. coli</italic>. The total amount of ∼3 mg of GST-hNaDC-3 fusion protein was purified with affinity chromatography with a purity of 90%.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Identification of Anti-hNaDC-3 Antibody With Western Blot Assay</title>
<p>The result of Western blot assay demonstrated that purified anti-GST-hNaDC-3 antibody specifically recognized the 34 kD GST-hNaDC-3 fusion protein antigen, but did not react with the 26 kD GST protein. The normal sera did not react with the GST-hNaDC-3 fusion protein antigen. For the sake of further characterizing specificity of the anti-GST-hNaDC-3 antibody, immunological reactions were performed between anti-GST-hNaDC-3 and anti-GST-hNaDC-1 antibodies, and recombinant GST-hNaDC-3 and GST-hNaDC-1 fusion proteins, respectively. The results showed that the anti-GST-hNaDC-3 specifically recognized GST-hNaDC-3 fusion protein, but not GST-hNaDC-1 fusion protein. Conversely, the anti-GST-hNaDC-1 antibody recognized GST-hNaDC-1 protein, but not GST- hNaDC-3 fusion protein (<xref rid="F06">Figure 6</xref>).</p>

<title>PAS Staining of Rat Kidney Sections</title>
<p>The kidney sections of the 3-month-old group showed normal renal structure, while kidney sections of the 24-month-old group displayed focal segmental or global glomerulosclerosis, mild denaturation of renal tubules, tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and some inflammatory infiltration (<xref rid="F07">Figure 7A–C</xref>).</p>

<title>Detection of NaDC-3 Expression in Kidney Tissue With Immunohistochemistry</title>
<p>As shown in <xref rid="F08">Figure 8A</xref>, NaDC-3 protein was positive in the basolateral membrane of the human renal proximal tubule, but negative in the distal tubule, collecting duct, renal interstitium, and glomerulus. Immunohistochemistry double-staining (<xref rid="F08">Figure 8B</xref>) showed high-affinity NaDC-3 located mainly in the basolateral membrane of the human renal proximal tubule (arrows), while low-affinity NaDC-1 dominated in the brush border (arrowheads). While most of the renal proximal tubules simultaneously express both NaDC-3 and NaDC-1, a few proximal tubules only displayed one of them. To further explore the relationship between NaDC-3 and aging, we observed NaDC-3 expressions in the kidneys of both aging rats and aging humans. The results showed that the abundance of NaDC-3 protein in the kidneys of rats of the 24-month-old group was higher than in the 3-month-old and 12-month-old groups (<xref rid="F09">Figure 9A–C</xref>). The abundance of NaDC-3 protein in human kidneys of the old-age group was also higher than in both the child group and adult group (<xref rid="F10">Figure 10A–C</xref>).</p>

<p>Aging, also called senescence, commonly refers to postmaturational processes that lead to diminished homeostasis and increased organismic vulnerability, the characteristics of which includes increased mortality, changed tissue composition, decreased physiological capacity, reduced ability to respond, and increased vulnerability (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B9">9</xref>). Since aging is an extremely complex, multifactorial process, numerous aging theories have been proposed; the most important of these are probably the genomic and free radical theories. Although it is abundantly clear that our genes influence aging and longevity, exactly how this takes place still remains to be elucidated. There is considerable evidence supporting the free radical theory of aging (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B10">10</xref>). At present, caloric restriction is the only known method that increases the life span (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B11">11</xref>). Caloric restriction not only down-regulates free radical and lipid peroxide production (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B12">12</xref>), but also lowers body temperature in rhesus monkeys (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B13">13</xref>). The mitochondrial respiratory chain is a powerful source of reactive oxygen species, considered the pathogenic agent of aging (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B14">14</xref>). The tricarboxylic acid cycle, also called the citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, is a major biochemical pathway that is localized to the mitochondrial matrix (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B15">15</xref>), which is considered the most efficient way for aerobic organisms to produce energy. As NaDC is responsible for transportation of intermediates of the Krebs cycle including succinate, α-ketoglutarate, and citrate (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B1">1</xref>), it can be deduced that NaDC may be involved in the process of aging, for which Rogina and colleagues have provided evidence (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B7">7</xref>).</p>
<p>At present, two types of NaDC have been discovered in the kidney, including NaDC-1 and NaDC-3. However, reports on functions of NaDC in the kidney are limited. NaDC-1 has been found to be increased in kidneys of rats with metabolic acidosis (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B16">16</xref>,<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B17">17</xref>). In 1999, Chen and colleagues (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B4">4</xref>) and Kekuda and colleagues (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B18">18</xref>) cloned the high-affinity sodium-dependent dicarboxylate cotransporter from the rat kidney (SDCT-2) and rat placenta (NaDC-3), respectively. In 2000, Wang and colleagues (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B19">19</xref>) cloned the high-affinity NaDC from the human placenta, and named it hNaDC-3.</p>
<p>We further cloned human kidney NaDC-3 (hNaDC-3/hSDCT2, GenBank Accession Number AY072810), and constructed a polyclonal antibody against hNaDC-3-GST fusion protein. As human NaDC-3 protein has a large molecular weight and a complex secondary structure, it is difficult to express and purify this protein in its entirety using biological methods. Thus, by means of analysis with biotechnological software, we established a peptide in the N-terminal intracellular domain as the immunogen. To prevent degradation of the peptide in <italic>E. coli</italic>, its encoding DNA sequence was fused with a GST prokaryotic sequence. All the above advantages allowed the NaDC-3 to be stably translated. By continually exploring the effects of IPTG concentrations, reaction temperature, and induction time of protein expression, we finally obtained the optimal conditions for IPTG to induce highly efficient soluble fusion protein expression. We finally obtained the antibody by using the purified fusion protein GST-hNaDC-3 as the immunogen. Substantial evidence showed that the anti-hNaDC-3 antibody specifically recognized the natural antigen. Our results have demonstrated for the first time, at the level of renal tissue expression, that hNaDC-3 was mainly located in the basolateral membrane of the renal proximal tubule, while hNaDC-1 was mainly expressed in the brush border membrane of the proximal tubule. An interesting observation is that NaDC-3 protein expression increased with age in rats as well as in humans. As NaDC-3 uptakes citrate and succinate, and so forth, into the basolateral membrane of renal proximal tubule epithelial cells to enter the mitochondria for providing energy (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B4">4</xref>), this increase of NaDC-3 may have a role in promoting aging, even although the exact mechanism of it has not yet been discovered. Rogina and colleagues (<xref rid="GRNA-58-09-13-B7">7</xref>) reported that the insertion mutation of the Indy gene, which has approximately 50% homology with NaDC-3, doubled the life span of drosophila, with no changes in the procreation ability and other physical activities, providing indirect support to our findings.</p>

<title>Conclusion</title>
<p>In this study, we have established an antibody against fusion protein GST-NaDC-3, which specifically identifies the NaDC-3 protein located in the basolateral membranes of renal proximal tubular epithelial cells. We have also provided evidence that an increase in NaDC-3 expression is associated with aging in both rats and humans.</p>
