CONTEXT: Understanding the function of the KCNJ5 potassium channel through
characterization of naturally occurring novel mutations is key for dissecting the
mechanism(s) of autonomous aldosterone secretion in primary aldosteronism.
OBJECTIVE: We sought for such novel KCNJ5 channel mutations in a large database
of patients with aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs). METHODS: We discovered a
novel somatic c.446insAAC insertion, resulting in the mutant protein
KCNJ5-insT149, in a patient with severe drug-resistant hypertension among 195
consecutive patients with a conclusive diagnosis of APA, 24.6% of whom showed
somatic KCNJ5 mutations. By site-directed mutagenesis, we created the mutated
cDNA that was transfected, along with KCNJ3 cDNA, in mammalian cells. We also
localized CYP11B2 in the excised adrenal gland with immunohistochemistry and
immunofluorescence using an antibody specific to human CYP11B2. Whole-cell patch
clamp recordings, CYP11B2 mRNA, aldosterone measurement, and molecular modeling
were performed to characterize the novel KCNJ5-insT149 mutation. RESULTS:
Compared with wild-type and mock-transfected adrenocortical cells, HAC15 cells
expressing the mutant KCNJ5 showed increased CYP11B2 expression and aldosterone
secretion. Mammalian cells expressing the mutated KCNJ5-insT149 channel exhibited
a strong Na(+) inward current and, in parallel, a substantial rise in
intracellular Ca(2+), caused by activation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels and
reduced Ca(2+) elimination by Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers, as well as an increased
production of aldosterone. CONCLUSIONS: This novel mutation shows pathological
Na(+) permeability, membrane depolarization, raised cytosolic Ca(2+), and
increased aldosterone synthesis. Hence, a novel KCNJ5 channelopathy located after
the pore ?-helix preceding the selectivity filter causes constitutive secretion
of aldosterone with ensuing resistant hypertension in a patient with a small APA.
