The response of H+-ATPase to lethal acid stress is unknown. A mutant strain (called NHE2d) was derived from cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells (mIMCD-3 cells) following three cycles of lethal acid stress. Cells were grown to confluence on coverslips, loaded with 2′,7′-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein, and monitored for intracellular pH (pHi) recovery from an acid load. The rate of Na+-independent pHi recovery from an acid load in mutant cells was approximately fourfold higher than in parent cells ( P < 0.001). The Na+-independent H+ extrusion was ATP dependent and K+ independent and was completely inhibited in the presence of diethylstilbestrol, N, N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, or N-ethylmaleimide. These results indicate that the Na+-independent H+ extrusion in cultured medullary cells is mediated via H+-ATPase and is upregulated in lethal acidosis. Northern hybridization experiments demonstrated that mRNA levels for the 16- and 31-kDa subunits of H+-ATPase remained unchanged in mutant cells compared with parent cells. We propose that lethal acid stress results in increased H+-ATPase activity in inner medullary collecting duct cells. Upregulation of H+-ATPase could play a protective role against cell death in severe intracellular acidosis.

Urine is an abundant source of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and prepro-EGF has been localized to the thick ascending limb and distal convoluted tubule of the kidney. However, the functional role of EGF in the kidney is poorly understood. Determination of EGF receptors and functional responses to EGF in intrarenal structures distal to the site of renal EGF production may prove critical to our understanding of the role of this peptide. These studies were designed to investigate the response to EGF of rat inner medullary collecting duct cells in culture and in freshly isolated suspensions. Primary cultures of inner medullary collecting duct cells demonstrated equilibrium binding of 125I-labeled EGF at 4 and 23 degrees C. At 23 degrees C, there was 89 +/- 1% specific binding (n = 30). Scatchard analysis of 125I-EGF binding suggested the presence of both high-affinity binding with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 5 X 10(-10) M and maximal binding sites (Ro) of 2.7 X 10(3) binding sites/cell and low-affinity binding, with Kd of 8.3 X 10(-9) M and Ro of 1.8 X 10(4) binding sites/cell. Bound EGF, 68 +/- 3%, was internalized by 45 min. EGF binding was not inhibited by antidiuretic hormone, atrial natriuretic peptide or bradykinin at 23 degrees C, but there was concentration-dependent inhibition of binding by transforming growth factor-alpha. Incubation with phorbol myristate acetate decreased 125I-EGF binding in a concentration-dependent manner. 125I-EGF binding was also demonstrated in freshly isolated suspensions of rat inner medullary collecting duct cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Although heat stress proteins (HSPs) mediate thermotolerance, the cellular targets of thermal injury and mechanisms of acquired cytoprotection are unknown. To describe the metabolic effects of hyperthermia and the potential mechanisms of thermotolerance, the following were measured in inner medullary collecting duct cells after a 43 degrees C and/or a 50 degrees C thermal insult: 1) state III mitochondrial respiration (SIII MR), 2) glycolytic rate, 3) lactate dehydrogenase activity, 4) membrane permeability, and 5) HSP 72 content. Compared with controls incubated at 37 degrees C, cells heated to 50 degrees C showed a 30 and 50% reduction in glycolysis and SIII MR, respectively. After heating to 50 degrees C, the cell membrane remained intact and immunoreactive HSP 72 was not detected. In contrast, heating to 43 degrees C induced accumulation of HSP 72 and transiently increased both SIII MR and glycolysis. In addition, prior exposure to 43 degrees C completely prevented the fall in SIII MR and glycolysis anticipated with a subsequent 50 degrees C insult. Cytoprotection gradually diminished over several days and correlated with the disappearance of HSP 72. Preservation of oxidative and anaerobic metabolism associated with HSPs may be important in developing resistance to thermal injury.
