We determined the effect of 24-hour aldosterone (100 nmol/L) treatment on hypertrophic responses in rat neonatal ventricular myocytes and the possible role of Na+-H+ exchange isoform 1 (NHE-1). Aldosterone significantly increased cell size by 61% and expression of atrial natriuretic peptide by 2-fold. NHE-1 mRNA expression and protein abundance were significantly increased, and intracellular Na+ levels were elevated. Both hypertrophy and elevated Na+ levels were prevented by the NHE-1-specific inhibitor EMD87580 as well as the aldosterone antagonist spironolactone, although the increased NHE-1 levels were prevented only by spironolactone. Aldosterone transiently (within 5 minutes) stimulated p44/42 phosphorylation, which decreased thereafter for the remaining 24 hours, whereas p38 phosphorylation was reduced. Neither a p38 nor a p44/42 inhibitor had any effect on aldosterone-induced hypertrophy or NHE-1 regulation. Our results therefore demonstrate a direct hypertrophic effect of aldosterone on cultured myocytes, which is dependent on NHE-1 activity.
