The fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura 2 was used to measure cytosolic free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) in order to obtain information about relative rates of Ca2+ influx into parietal cells during treatment with carbachol (a cholinergic agonist) or thapsigargin (TG, a Ca(2+)-mobilizing agent) or during reloading of the internal Ca2+ stores. In Ca(2+)-containing solutions, carbachol-, TG-, and reloading-stimulated Ca2+ entry exhibited nearly identical sensitivity to La3+ [inhibition constant (Ki) approximately 10 microM] or low pH (pKi approximately 7.0). In experiments in which carbachol and TG were used, there was no additional increase in [Ca2+]i when TG was added to carbachol-treated cells or when carbachol was added to cells previously treated with TG. Thus it is likely that a single Ca2+ entry pathway serves a signaling function as well as a role in refilling the Ca2+ store during reloading. Because the Ca2+ pathway is exquisitely sensitive to pH and serosal pH increases during stimulant-induced H+ secretion (which is activated by increases in [Ca2+]i), this mechanism will exert positive feedback on parietal cells in the intact stomach. When parietal cells were pretreated with carbachol in Ca(2+)-free solutions, reloading was independent of pH and La3+, suggesting that Ca(2+)-containing solutions should be used to determine the properties of the influx pathway.

The mechanism whereby gastrin-type receptor and muscarinic M3-type receptor regulate free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was studied in rabbit gastric parietal cells stimulated by either gastrin or carbachol. Both agonists induced a biphasic [Ca2+]i response: a transient [Ca2+]i rise, followed by a sustained steady state depending on extracellular Ca2+. Gastrin and carbachol also caused a rapid and transient increase in Mn2+ influx (a tracer for bivalent-cation entry). Pre-stimulation of cells with one agonist drastically decreased both [Ca2+]i increase and Mn2+ influx induced by the other. Neither diltiazem nor pertussistoxin treatment had any effect on agonist-stimulated Mn2+ entry. Thapsigargin, a Ca(2+)-pump inhibitor, induced a biphasic [Ca2+]i increase, and enhanced the rate of Mn2+ entry. Preincubation of cells with thapsigargin inhibits the [Ca2+]i increase as well as Mn2+ entry stimulated by gastrin or by carbachol. Thapsigargin induced a weak but significant increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 content, but this agent had no effect on the agonist-evoked Ins(1,4,5)P3 response. In permeabilized parietal cells, Ins(1,4,5)P3 and caffeine caused an immediate Ca2+ release from intracellular pools, followed by a reloading of Ca2+ pools which can be prevented in the presence of thapsigargin. We conclude that (i) gastrin and carbachol mobilize common Ca2+ intracellular stores, (ii) Ca2+ permeability secondary to receptor activation involves neither a voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel nor a GTP-binding protein from the G1 family, and (iii) agonists regulate common Ca2+ channels in depleting intracellular Ca2+ stores.

Actin cytoskeleton plays an important role in the establishment of epithelial cell polarity. Cdc42, a member of Rho GTPase family, modulates actin dynamics via its regulators, such as IQGAP proteins. Gastric parietal cells are polarized epithelial cells in which regulated acid secretion occurs in the apical membrane upon stimulation. We have previously shown that actin isoforms are polarized to different membrane domains and that the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton is essential for acid secretion. Herein, we show that Cdc42 is preferentially distributed to the apical membrane of gastric parietal cells. In addition, we revealed that two Cdc42 regulators, IQGAP1 and IQGAP2, are present in gastric parietal cells. Interestingly, IQGAP2 is polarized to the apical membrane of the parietal cells, whereas IQGAP1 is mainly distributed to the basolateral membrane. An IQGAP peptide that competes with full-length IQGAP proteins for Cdc42-binding in vitro also inhibits acid secretion in streptolysin-O-permeabilized gastric glands. Furthermore, this peptide disrupts the association of IQGAP and Cdc42 with the apical actin cytoskeleton and prevents the apical membrane remodeling upon stimulation. We propose that IQGAP2 forms a link that associates Cdc42 with the apical cytoskeleton and thus allows for activation of polarized secretion in gastric parietal cells.

The apical Cl−/HCO[Formula: see text] exchanger called the putative anion transporter (PAT1; SLC26A6) is expressed on apical membranes of villus cells in the duodenum, but its location in the stomach remains unknown. Here we examined the cell distribution and membrane location of PAT1 in mouse stomach. Immunofluorescence labeling studies with anti-PAT1 antibodies and Dolichos biflorusagglutinin indicated the exclusive expression of PAT1 in gastric parietal cells. Double immunocytochemical staining revealed colocalization of PAT1 with the gastric H-K-ATPase, consistent with expression in tubulovesicles and/or the secretory canaliculus. Radiolabeled 36Cl flux studies demonstrated the functional presence of Cl−/HCO[Formula: see text] exchange in purified tubulovesicles of parietal cells. The expression of PAT1 was significantly decreased in parietal cells of gastric H-K-ATPase-null mice, which exhibit a sharp reduction in tubulovesicle membranes. These data indicate that the Cl−/HCO[Formula: see text]exchanger PAT1 is localized on tubulovesicular membranes, and they are consistent with the hypothesis that it functions in the maintenance of intravesicular ion concentrations in the resting state and dehydration of vesicles derived from the secretory membranes following the transition from the stimulated to the resting state.

Abstract Background: Ethanol has been linked to atrophic gastritis and gastric carcinoma. Although it is well known that ethanol can result in hypochlorhydria, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood.Results: Here we used gastric organoids to show that ethanol permeabilized the apical membrane of gastric parietal cells and induced ezrin hypochlorhydria. The functional consequences of ethanol on parietal cell physiology were studied using organoids. Gastric organoids were pre-incubated in the basic medium or with EGTA or E64 , and incubated at 37℃ in either medium alone, or medium containing 6% ethanol. We assessed ezrin proteolysis. Ethanol permeabilization induced activation of calpainⅠand subsequent proteolysis of ezrin, which resulted in the liberation of ezrin from the apical membrane of the parietal cells. Significantly, expression of calpain-resistant ezrin restored the functional activity of parietal cells in the presence of ethanol.Conclusion: Taken together, our data indicated that ethanol disrupted the apical membrane-cytoskeleton interactions in gastric parietal cells and thereby caused hypochlorhydria.
