Indeed, adverse conditions encountered during the fetal, perinatal, and early childhood stages can alter normal development and growth, as well as put the offspring at elevated risk of developing long-term health conditions in adulthood, including chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular diseases. Of relevance in understanding the mechanistic basis of these long-term health conditions, are previous findings showing low glomerular number in human intrauterine growth restriction and low birth weight - indicators of a sub-optimal intrauterine environment. In different animal models, the main sub-optimal intrauterine conditions studied relate to maternal dietary manipulations, poor micronutrient intake, prenatal ethanol exposure, maternal diabetes, glucocorticoid and chemical exposure, hypoxia, and placental insufficiency. These studies have demonstrated changes in kidney structure, glomerular endowment, and expression of key genes and signalling pathways controlling endocrine, excretion and filtration function of the offspring. This review aims to summarize those studies to uncover the effects and mechanisms by which adverse gestational environments impact offspring renal and vascular health in adulthood. This is important for identifying agents and interventions that can prevent and mitigate the long-term consequences of an adverse intrauterine environment on the subsequent generation.","PeriodicalId":7583,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Physiology - Renal Physiology","volume":"60 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140829482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the physiologic role of collecting-duct-derived vasopressin is uncertain. We hypothesized that collecting-duct-derived vasopressin was required for appropriate concentration of urine. We developed a vasopressin conditional knockout mouse model wherein Cre recombinase expression induces deletion of <i>Avp</i> exon 1 in the distal nephron. We then used age-matched 8 - 12 week old <i>Avp</i> fl/fl;<i>Ksp</i>-Cre(-) (WT) and <i>Avp</i> fl/fl;<i>Ksp</i>-Cre(+) mice for all experiments. We collected urine, serum, and kidney lysates at baseline. We then challenged both WT and KO mice with 24 hour water restriction, water loading, and administration of the vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) agonist desmopressin (dDAVP) 1 µg/kg/ip) followed by V2R antagonist OPC-31260 (10 mg/kg/ip). We performed immunofluorescence and immunoblot analysis at baseline and confirmed vasopressin knockout in the collecting duct. We found that urinary osmolality (UOsm), plasma Na<sup>+</sup>, K<sup>+</sup>, Cl<sup>-</sup>, BUN, and copeptin were similar in WT vs KO mice at baseline. Immunoblots of vasopressin regulated proteins Na:K:2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2), Na:Cl cotransporter (NCC) and water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) showed no difference in expression or phosphorylation at baseline. Following 24 hour water restriction, WT and KO mice had no differences in UOsm, plasma Na<sup>+</sup>, K<sup>+</sup>, Cl<sup>-</sup>, BUN or copeptin. Additionally, there were no differences in the rate of urinary concentration or dilution as WT and KO mice UOsm was nearly identical after dDAVP and OPC-31260 administration. We conclude that collecting-duct-derived vasopressin is not essential to appropriately concentrate or dilute urine.","PeriodicalId":7583,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Physiology - Renal Physiology","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140829633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
