Familial hyperkalemic hypertension (FHHt; also called pseudohypoaldosteronism type II) is a hereditary hypertensive disease which can be caused by mutations in four genes: WNK1 with no lysine (K) 1, WNK4 , Kelch-like3 (KLHL3), and cullin3 (CUL3). Decreased KLHL3 expression was identified as being involved in the pathogenesis of FHHt caused by cullin 3 disease mutations. Recent studies have revealed an increased WNK4 and hence Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC) activity in the db/db mice, resulting from PKC-mediated KLHL3 phosphorylation, which impairs the degradation of its substrate, WNK4. However, whether WNK4 and NCC were activated in type 1 diabetes still remains unclear. We created streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic mice and revealed that renal WNK-oxidative stress response kinase-1/STE20/SPS1-related proline alanine–rich kinase (OSR1/SPAK)-NCC cascade was activated, whereas KLHL3 expression was markedly decreased and CUL3 was heavily neddylated. Moreover, decreased KLHL3 was reversed and WNK1 and WNK4 abundance increased by MLN4924, a neddylation inhibitor. In vitro, our study also showed decreased KLHL3 abundance without any significant change in phosphorylated KLHL3 under high glucose exposure. These results indicate that decreased KLHL3 likely plays a role in the pathogenesis of renal sodium reabsorption in hyperglycemic conditions.
