We hypothesized that duodenal HCO3− secretion alkalinizes the microclimate surrounding intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP), increasing its activity. We measured AP activity in rat duodenum in situ in frozen sections with the fluorogenic substrate ELF-97 phosphate and measured duodenal HCO3− secretion with a pH-stat in perfused duodenal loops. We examined the effects of the IAP inhibitors l-cysteine or l-phenylalanine (0.1–10 mM) or the tissue nonspecific AP inhibitor levamisole (0.1–10 mM) on AP activity in vitro and on acid-induced duodenal HCO3− secretion in vivo. AP activity was the highest in the duodenal brush border, decreasing longitudinally to the large intestine with no activity in stomach. Villous surface AP activity measured in vivo was enhanced by PGE2 intravenously and inhibited by luminal l-cysteine. Furthermore, incubation with a pH 2.2 solution reduced AP activity in vivo, whereas pretreatment with the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) inhibitor CFTRinh-172 abolished AP activity at pH 2.2. l-Cysteine and l-phenylalanine enhanced acid-augmented duodenal HCO3− secretion. The nonselective P2 receptor antagonist suramin (1 mM) reduced acid-induced HCO3− secretion. Moreover, l-cysteine or the competitive AP inhibitor glycerol phosphate (10 mM) increased HCO3− secretion, inhibited by suramin. In conclusion, enhancement of the duodenal HCO3− secretory rate increased AP activity, whereas inhibition of AP activity increased the HCO3− secretory rate. These data support our hypothesis that HCO3− secretion increases AP activity by increasing local pH at its catalytic site and that AP hydrolyzes endogenous luminal phosphates, presumably ATP, which increases HCO3− secretion via activation of P2 receptors.

Differential centrifugation of rat small intestinal homogenates produced a crude brush border (BB) fraction that was enriched 15-fold for the marker enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and sucrase; contamination with mitochondrial enzymes, monoamine oxidase and succinate dehydrogenase, was minimal. ATP hydrolysis by this BB fraction was stimulated by addition of several anions to the incubation medium: HCO3 and Cl were equally effective in this regard, with NO3, NO2, SO4, and acetate being less stimulatory. SCN and CNO inhibited ATPase activity, whereas the divalent anion SO3 was stimulatory at low concentrations (less than 25 mM) but inhibitory at 100 mM. Maximum anion stimulation was observed at a Mg concentration of 0.5 mM, and pH optimum was 8.5. Kinetic analysis showed that HCO3 increased the Vmax without altering the Km for ATP; the Ka for this effect of HCO3 was 35 mM. This enzyme activity was completely inhibited by 20 mM L-phenylalanine, 10 mM L-cysteine, and 3 mM EDTA, compounds that also inhibited intestinal alkaline phosphatase. These results demonstrate the presence of anion-stimulated ATPase activity in rat small intestinal brush border and suggest that this activity may be related to intestinal alkaline phosphatase. The role of this enzyme in intestinal transport is not known, but could relate to the regulation of intestinal absorption and secretion.

Epithelial Growth

Enterocyte growth and differentiation occur simultaneously within the epithelium, but little is known regarding any relationship between these two processes. Four rat models of small intestinal epithelial hypo- and hyperplasia (neonatal ontogeny, fasting/refeeding, hypo-/hyperthyroidism, and bombesin treatment) were used to study the regulation of enterocyte gene expression in relation to epithelial growth state. Mucosal scrapings, as well as crypt and villus cell populations, were subjected to Northern blot analyses using radiolabeled cDNA probes corresponding to lactase, intestinal alkaline phosphatase, villin, ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), and the actin control. In all four models, the hypoplastic (atrophic) condition is characterized by high levels of lactase and low levels of the 3.0-kb intestinal alkaline phosphatase mRNA, whereas under hyperplastic conditions this pattern is reversed. The changes in intestinal alkaline phosphatase and lactase are qualitatively similar along the longitudinal axis of the intestine and are proportional to the degree of hyperplasia, as verified by ODC mRNA levels. Furthermore, the crypt-villus axis of differentiation is maintained regardless of epithelial growth state. In conclusion, the pattern of brush-border enzyme gene expression changes as a function of epithelial growth state, indicating a previously unrecognized degree of plasticity to the state of enterocyte differentiation.

Absorption of dietary fat in the small intestine is accompanied by a rise of intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) in the serum and of secretion of IAP-containing surfactant-like particles from the enterocytes. In the present work, fat absorption was studied in organ cultured mouse intestinal explants. By immunofluorescence microscopy, fat absorption caused a translocation of IAP from the enterocyte brush border to the interior of the cell, whereas other brush-border enzymes were unaffected. By electron microscopy, the translocation occurred by a rapid (5 min) induction of endocytosis via clathrin-coated pits. By 60 min, IAP was seen in subapical endosomes and along membranes surrounding fat droplets. IAP is a well-known lipid raft-associated protein, and fat absorption was accompanied by a marked change in the density and morphology of the detergent-resistant membranes harboring IAP. A lipid analysis revealed that fat absorption caused a marked increase in the microvillar membrane contents of free fatty acids. In conclusion, fat absorption rapidly induces a transient clathrin-dependent endocytosis via coated pits from the enterocyte brush border. The process selectively internalizes IAP and may contribute to the appearance of the enzyme in serum and surfactant-like particles.

Enzymically active intestinal alkaline phosphatase exists in both soluble and membrane-bound forms in the suckling rat. Antiserum prepared against purified soluble alkaline phosphatase (anti-AlP) was shown to be monospecific when assessed by Ouchterlony double-diffusion analysis and immunoelectrophoresis. The two forms of alkaline phosphatase were antigenically identical and possessed similar affinities for anti-AlP. To study the biosynthesis of the two forms, 14-day-old rats were injected intraperitoneally with [3H]leucine. The labelling kinetics of alkaline phosphatase, extracted from supernatant and brush-border membrane fractions with anti-AlP, was followed over 20h. Incorporation of [3H]leucine into membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase was rapid, reaching a plateau at 6h. The soluble enzyme showed slower incorporation of label and maximal radioactivity was not reached until 12h after labelling, a lag of 6h behind the membrane-bound enzyme. Soluble alkaline phosphatase could not have been a precursor of the membrane form, as there was no early peak of radioactivity in the soluble form. To determine if the soluble enzyme was irreversibly derived from the membrane enzyme, a newly developed technique of labelling brush-border membrane proteins in vivo by intraluminal injection of diazotized [125I]iodosulphanilic acid was used. The appearance of 125I in soluble and membrane alkaline phosphatase was then monitored over a 7h period, encompassing the lag between maximal leucine labelling of the two forms. The results failed to show either a proportional transfer of radioactivity from membrane to soluble alkaline phosphatase or an absolute increase in radioactivity of the soluble form during degradation of brush-border alkaline phosphatase. Therefore there does not appear to be a serial precursor/product relationship between the soluble and membrane-bound forms of suckling-rat intestinal alkaline phosphatase.
