Atorvastatin does not ameliorate nephrogenic diabetes insipidus induced by lithium or potassium depletion in mice

Abstract Acquired forms of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) include lithium (Li)‐induced and hypokalemia‐induced NDI. Both forms are associated with AQP2 downregulation and collecting duct (CD) cellular remodeling. Statins are cholesterol‐lowering drugs appearing to increase AQP2 membrane‐transl...

To see whether chronic statin treatment abolish the Li effects, mCCDc1l cells were treated with 48 h Li, combined Li/atorvastatin or combined Li/simvastatin. Li reduced AQP2, but combined Li/atorvastatin or Li/simvastatin did not prevent AQP2 downregulation. In mice, chronic (21 days) Li increased urine output and reduced urine osmolality, but combined Li/atorvastatin did not prevent these effects. In inner medulla (IM), Li reduced total AQP2 and increased pS261‐AQP2. Combined Li/atorvastatin did not abolish these changes. Atorvastatin did not prevent a Li‐induced increase in intercalated cells and proliferation in IM. In mice with already established NDI, atorvastatin had no effect on the Li‐induced changes either. Mice subjected to 14 days of potassium‐deficient diet developed polyuria and AQP2 downregulation in IM. Co‐treatment with atorvastatin did not prevent this.
