We examined the effects of H2O2on Cl− secretion across human colonic T84 cells grown on permeable supports and mounted in modified Ussing chambers. Forskolin-induced short-circuit current, a measure of Cl− secretion, was inhibited in a concentration-dependent fashion when monolayers were pretreated with H2O2for 30 min (30–100% inhibition between 500 μM and 5 mM). Moreover, H2O2inhibited 76% of the Cl−current across monolayers when the basolateral membranes were permeabilized with nystatin (200 μg/ml). When the apical membrane was permeabilized with amphotericin B, H2O2inhibited the Na+ current (a measure of Na+-K+-ATPase activity) by 68% but increased the K+ current more than threefold. In addition to its effects on ion transport pathways, H2O2also decreased intracellular ATP levels by 43%. We conclude that the principal effect of H2O2on colonic Cl− secretion is inhibitory. This may be due to a decrease in ATP levels following H2O2treatment, which subsequently results in an inhibition of the apical membrane Cl− conductance and basolateral membrane Na+-K+-ATPase activity. Alternatively, H2O2may alter Cl− secretion by direct action on the transporters or alterations in signal transduction pathways.

Active Na+ absorption across rumen epithelium comprises Na+/H+ exchange and a nonselective cation conductance (NSCC). Luminal chloride is able to stimulate Na+ absorption, which has been attributed to an interaction between Cl−/HCO3− and Na+/H+ exchangers. However, isolated rumen epithelial cells also express a Cl− conductance. We investigated whether Cl− has an additional effect on electrogenic Na+ absorption via NSCC. NSCC was estimated from short-circuit current ( Isc) across epithelia of goat and sheep rumen in Ussing chambers. Epithelial surface pH (pHs) was measured with 5- N-hexadecanoyl-aminofluorescence. Membrane potentials were measured with microelelectrodes. Luminal, but not serosal, Cl− stimulated the Ca2+ and Mg2+ sensitive Isc. This effect was independent of the replacing anion (gluconate or acetate) and of the presence of bicarbonate. The mean pHs of rumen epithelium amounted to 7.47 ± 0.03 in a low-Cl− solution. It was increased by 0.21 pH units when luminal Cl− was increased from 10 to 68 mM. Increasing mucosal pH from 7.5 to 8.0 also increased the Ca2+ and Mg2+ sensitive Isc and transepithelial conductance and reduced the fractional resistance of the apical membrane. Luminal Cl− depolarized the apical membrane of rumen epithelium. 5-Nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate reduced the divalent cation sensitive Isc, but only in low-Cl− solutions. The results show that luminal Cl− can increase the microclimate pH via apical Cl−/HCO3− or Cl−/OH− exchangers. Electrogenic Na+ absorption via NSCC increases with pH, explaining part of the Cl− effects on Na+ absorption. The data further show that the Cl− conductance of rumen epithelium must be located at the basolateral membrane.

Porcine gallbladder, stripped of serosal muscle, mounted in Ussing chambers, and bathed in plasma-like Ringer solution generates a serosal positive transepithelial potential of 4-7 mV and a short-circuit current (Isc) of 50-120 microA/cm2. Substitution of Cl with gluconate or HCO3 with N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) results in a 50% decrease in Isc. Treatment with 1 mM amiloride (mucosal side) or 0.1 mM acetazolamide (both sides) causes 25-27% inhibition of the Isc. Mucosal addition of 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid inhibits the Isc by 17%. Serosal addition of 0.1 mM bumetanide inhibits the Isc by 28%. Amiloride (1 mM) inhibits the net transepithelial fluxes of Na and Cl by 55 and 41%, respectively. Substitution of Cl with gluconate inhibits the net Na flux by 50%, whereas substitution of HCO3 with HEPES inhibits 85-90% of the net Na flux and changes Cl absorption to net secretion. Based on these results, it is hypothesized that Na and Cl transport across the apical membrane is mediated by two pathways, Na-H/Cl-HCO3 exchange and Na-HCO3 cotransport. Partial recycling of Cl and HCO3 presumably occurs through a Cl conductive pathway and Cl-HCO3 exchange, respectively, in the apical membrane. This results in net Na absorption, which accounts for most of the Isc observed under basal conditions. The effect of bumetanide on the basolateral membrane and the fact that Cl secretion occurs when HCO3 is absent suggests that Cl secretion involves a basolateral NaCl or Na-K-Cl cotransport system arranged in series with a Cl conductive pathway in the apical membrane.

Addition of either 10(-8) M vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) or 10(-6) M A23187 to T84 cell monolayers, grown on permeable supports and mounted in Ussing chambers, stimulated net Cl- secretion. The effect of 10(-6) M A23187 on Cl- flux was consistently smaller than that observed with 10(-8) M VIP. In both cases the increase in net Cl- secretion accounted for the entire change in the observed short-circuit current (Isc). Since Cl- enters the cells through a basolaterally localized Na+-K+-Cl(-)-cotransport system (J. Clin. Invest. 75: 462, 1985), the fate of K+, which is cotransported with Cl- during VIP, and A23187-mediated Cl- secretion was explored. Unidirectional and net transepithelial 42K+ flux rates were negligible compared with 36Cl- flux rates (less than 4% of Cl- flux), indicating that little K+ was secreted along with Cl-. K+ recycling across the basolateral membrane was suggested from experiments in which 86Rb+ efflux (as a tracer for K+) was measured across the apical and basolateral membranes of 86Rb+ -preloaded monolayers under voltage-clamped conditions. In the absence of secretagogues, 86Rb+ efflux was 10-fold higher across the basolateral membrane than across the apical membrane. 86Rb+ efflux across the basolateral membrane was accelerated two- to threefold by addition of either VIP or A23187. In each case accelerated efflux was inhibited by 5 mM Ba2+. Cl- secretion induced by VIP or A23187 was also inhibited by serosal addition of Ba2+.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Isoprenylated proteins function in the processes of signal transduction and membrane vesicle trafficking. To investigate the role of isoprenylated proteins in secretagogue-stimulated epithelial ion transport, we studied the effects of lovastatin, an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, on adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)- and Ca(2+)-stimulated Cl- secretion by monolayers of T84 colonic epithelial cells. Lovastatin reduces protein isoprenylation in many cell types. In T84 cells, lovastatin reversibly inhibits forskolin-stimulated equivalent short-circuit current (I(sc)eq) by 50% after 2 days of treatment. The concentration of lovastatin resulting in half-maximal effects on forskolin-stimulated I(sc)eq is consistent with inhibition of protein isoprenylation, and lovastatin effects on forskolin-stimulated I(sc)eq are not associated with inhibition of cholesterol or glycoprotein biosynthesis. Lovastatin blocks N6,2'-O-dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate- and ionomycin-stimulated Isc, suggesting that it inhibits a process beyond the stimulation of cAMP and Ca2+ second-messenger systems. In monolayers in which the basolateral membrane has been permeabilized with nystatin, lovastatin inhibits cAMP activation of a diphenylamine-2-carboxylate-sensitive, apical membrane Cl- conductance. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that an isoprenylated protein is involved in the regulation of a secretagogue-activated apical membrane Cl- conductance in T84 cells.

Luminal extracellular ATP evoked a bumetanide-sensitive short-circuit current in cultured T84 cell epithelia (90.2 +/- 18.2 microA/cm2 at 100 microM ATP, apparent 50% effective concentration, 11.5 microM). ATP appeared to increase the Cl- conductance of the apical membrane but not the driving force for Cl- secretion determined by basolateral membrane K+ conductance. Specifically, the magnitude of Cl- secretion stimulated by ATP was independent of basal current, and forskolin pretreatment abolished subsequent stimulation of Cl- secretion by ATP. Whereas ATP stimulated modest production of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) by T84 cells, ATP caused smaller increases in intracellular Ca2+ and inositol phosphate activities than the Ca(2+)-signaling Cl- secretagogue carbachol. An inhibitor of 5'-nucleotidase, alpha,beta-methyleneadenosine 5'-diphosphate, blocked most of the response to luminal ATP. The adenosine receptor antagonist 8-(p-sulfophenyl)theophylline blocked both the luminal ATP-dependent generation of cAMP and Cl- secretion when administered to the luminal but not submucosal bath. These results demonstrate that the Cl- secretion stimulated by luminal ATP is mediated by a A2-adenosine receptor located on the apical cell membrane. Thus metabolism of extracellular ATP to adenosine regulates the activity of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductor regulator (CFTR) in the apical membrane of polarized T84 cells.

The transmural electrical potential difference (PD) was measured in vivo across the buccal mucosa of humans and experimental animals. Mean PD was -31 +/- 2 mV in humans, -34 +/- 2 mV in dogs, -39 +/- 2 mV in rabbits, and -18 +/- 1 mV in hamsters. The mechanisms responsible for this PD were explored in Ussing chambers using dog buccal mucosa. After equilibration, mean PD was -16 +/- 2 mV, short-circuit current (Isc) was 15 +/- 1 microA/cm2, and resistance was 1,090 +/- 100 omega.cm2, the latter indicating an electrically "tight" tissue. Fluxes of [14C]mannitol, a marker of paracellular permeability, varied directly with tissue conductance. The net fluxes of 22Na and 36Cl were +0.21 +/- 0.05 and -0.04 +/- 0.02 mueq/h.cm2, respectively, but only the Na+ flux differed significantly from zero. Isc was reduced by luminal amiloride, serosal ouabain, or by reducing luminal Na+ below 20 mM. This indicated that the Isc was determined primarily by active Na+ absorption and that Na+ traverses the apical membrane at least partly through amiloride-sensitive channels and exits across the basolateral membrane through Na+-K+-ATPase activity. We conclude that buccal mucosa is capable of active electrolyte transport and that this capacity contributes to generation of the buccal PD in vivo.

Ethanesulfonic Acid

Equine tracheal epithelium, stripped of serosal muscle, mounted in Ussing chambers, and bathed in plasmalike Ringer solution generates a serosa-positive transepithelial potential of 10–22 mV and a short-circuit current (Isc) of 70–200 microA/cm2. Mucosal amiloride (10 microM) causes a 40–60% decrease in Isc and inhibits the net transepithelial Na flux by 95%. Substitution of Cl with gluconate resulted in a 30% decrease in basal Isc. Bicarbonate substitution with 20 mM N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid decreased the Isc by 21%. The Cl-dependent Isc was inhibited by serosal addition of 1 mM amiloride. Bicarbonate replacement or serosal amiloride (1 mM) inhibits the net Cl flux by 72 and 69%, respectively. Bicarbonate replacement significantly reduces the effects of serosal amiloride (1 mM) on Isc, indicating its effect is HCO3 dependent. Addition of 8-bromoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BrcAMP; 100 microM) causes a 40% increase in Isc. This effect is inhibited by subsequent addition of 10 microM serosal bumetanide. Bumetanide (10 microM) reduces net Cl secretion following stimulation with 8-BrcAMP (100 microM). Serosal addition of BaCl2 (1 mM) causes a reduction in Isc equal to that following Cl replacement in the presence or absence of 100 microM cAMP. These results suggest that 1) Na absorption depends on amiloride-inhibitable Na channels in the apical membrane, 2) Cl influx across the basolateral membrane occurs by both a Na-H/Cl-HCO3 parallel exchange mechanism under basal conditions and by a bumetanide-sensitive Na-(K?)-Cl cotransport system under cAMP-stimulated conditions, and 3) basal and cAMP-stimulated Cl secretion depends on Ba-sensitive K channels in the basolateral membrane.

Rabbit corneas were mounted in Ussing chambers, and the apical membrane of the superficial cells (SCs) was permeabilized by exposure to digitonin in a Ca(2+)-free Ringer solution. This treatment resulted in the generation of large (60.7 +/- 13.2 microA/cm2, n = 25) Na(+)-dependent tear (T)-to-stroma (S) short-circuit currents (Isc). The Isc was abolished by ouabain and by 1.4 mM Ca2+ and was inhibited by heptanol, 18 alpha-glycyrrhetinic acid, and dieldrin, effects consistent with the notion that corneal transepithelial fluxes include translocations through gap junctions (GJs) before basolateral membrane transport. T-to-S Isc were also generated when T-side Na+ was replaced by K+, eliciting a T-to-S K+ flux via basolateral K+ channels and when, with either Na+ or K+ on the T side, channels were introduced at the apical membrane with amphotericin B. The Isc in all four conditions exhibited similar sensitivity to GJ inhibitors and were inhibited by adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) elevation. Fluorophotometry combined with SC permeabilization with digitonin demonstrated that the half-time for the SC to sub-SC movement of 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5,6-carboxyfluorescein (mol wt 540) exceeded 3 h. These results indicate that junctional communications along the epithelial stratification axis are highly restricted and modulated by cAMP concentration.

Mammary epithelial 31EG4 cells (MEC) were grown as monolayers on filters to analyze the apical membrane mechanisms that help mediate ion and fluid transport across the epithelium. RT-PCR showed the presence of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) message, and immunomicroscopy showed apical membrane staining for both proteins. CFTR was also localized to the apical membrane of native human mammary duct epithelium. In control conditions, mean values of transepithelial potential (apical-side negative) and resistance ( R T) are −5.9 mV and 829 Ω · cm2, respectively. The apical membrane potential ( V A) is −40.7 mV, and the mean ratio of apical to basolateral membrane resistance ( R A/ R B) is 2.8. Apical amiloride hyperpolarized V A by 19.7 mV and tripled R A/ R B. A cAMP-elevating cocktail depolarized V A by 17.6 mV, decreased R A/ R B by 60%, increased short-circuit current by 6 μA/cm2, decreased R T by 155 Ω · cm2, and largely eliminated responses to amiloride. Whole cell patch-clamp measurements demonstrated amiloride-inhibited Na+ currents [linear current-voltage ( I-V) relation] and forskolin-stimulated Cl−currents (linear I-V relation). A capacitance probe method showed that in the control state, MEC monolayers either absorbed or secreted fluid (2–4 μl · cm−2 · h−1). Fluid secretion was stimulated either by activating CFTR (cAMP) or blocking ENaC (amiloride). These data plus equivalent circuit analysis showed that 1) fluid absorption across MEC is mediated by Na+ transport via apical membrane ENaC, and fluid secretion is mediated, in part, by Cl− transport via apical CFTR; 2) in both cases, appropriate counterions move through tight junctions to maintain electroneutrality; and 3) interactions among CFTR, ENaC, and tight junctions allow MEC to either absorb or secrete fluid and, in situ, may help control luminal [Na+] and [Cl−].

Lactate Dehydrogenase Release

Pancreatic duct epithelial cells (PDEC) mediate the secretion of fluid and electrolytes and are exposed to refluxed bile. In nontransformed cultured dog PDEC, which express many ion transport pathways of PDEC, 1 mM taurodeoxycholic acid (TDCA) stimulated an125I−efflux inhibited by DIDS and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB) and a86Rb+efflux inhibited by charybdotoxin. Inhibition by 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane- N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA)-AM suggests mediation via increased intracellular Ca2+concentration, whereas the absence of lactate dehydrogenase release excludes cellular toxicity. At 1 mM, TDCA stimulated a larger125I−efflux than glycodeoxycholate; two dihydroxy bile acids, taurochenodeoxycholate and TDCA, were similarly effective, whereas a trihydroxy bile acid, taurocholate, was ineffective. In Ussing chambers, 1 mM serosal or 2 mM luminal TDCA stimulated an Iscincrease from confluent PDEC monolayers. TDCA also stimulated 1) a short-circuit current ( Isc) increase from basolaterally permeabilized PDEC subject to a serosal-to-luminal Cl−gradient that was inhibited by BAPTA-AM, DIDS, and NPPB and 2) an Iscincrease from apically permeabilized PDEC subject to a luminal-to-serosal K+gradient inhibited by BAPTA-AM and charybdotoxin. Along with the efflux studies, these findings suggest that TDCA interacts directly with PDEC to stimulate Ca2+-activated apical Cl−channels and basolateral K+channels. Monolayer transepithelial resistance was only minimally affected by 1 mM serosal and 2 mM luminal TDCA but decreased after exposure to higher TDCA concentrations (2 mM serosal and 4 mM luminal). A secretory role for bile acids should be considered in pancreatic diseases associated with bile reflux.
