The effect of furosemide on acid secretion and Cl- transport was studied in isolated fundic mucosa of the guinea pig. Furosemide (10(-3) M), applied to the serosal side produced an immediate effect on the short-circuit current (Isc), lowering it by 47 +/- 2%. Potential difference decreased by 29 +/- 3%, electrical conductance by 18 +/- 4%, acid secretion by 38 +/- 1%, and net flux of Cl- from serosal-to-mucosal side by 37%. Application of the drug to the mucosal side produced similar effects on acid secretion and on the electrical parameters. It is suggested that furosemide blocks the entrance of Cl-, by the Na+--Cl- cotransport mechanism, through the basolateral membrane of the secreting cell. The consequent reduction in electrogenic Cl- transport would cause Isc and acid secretion to decrease. A reduction of Cl- conductance of the apical membrane, upon mucosal application of the drug, would cause similar effects on acid secretion and Cl- transport.

AbstractThe intestine of marine teleosts secretes HCO3- into the lumen and precipitates Ca2+ and Mg2+ in the imbibed seawater as carbonates to decrease luminal fluid osmolality and facilitate water absorption. However, reports on studies on the hormonal regulation of HCO3- secretion are just emerging. Here, we showed that guanylin (GN) applied to the mucosal side of intestinal epithelia increased HCO3- secretion in seawater-acclimated eels. The effect of GN on HCO3- secretion was slower than that on the short-circuit current, and the time-course of the GN effect was similar to that of bumetanide. Mucosal bumetanide and serosal 4,4’-dinitrostilbene-2,2’-disulfonic acid (DNDS) inhibited the GN effect, suggesting an involvement of apical Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter (NKCC2) and basolateral Cl-/HCO3- exchanger (AE)/Na+-HCO3- cotransporter (NBC) in the GN effect. However, mucosal DNDS and diphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid (DPC) failed to inhibit the GN effect, showing that apical AE and Cl- channel are not involved. To identify molecular species of possible transporters involved in the GN effect, we performed RNA-seq analyses followed by quantitative real-time PCR after transfer of eels to seawater. Among the genes upregulated after seawater transfer, those of Slc26a3a, b (DRAa, b) and Slc26a6a, c (Pat-1a, c) on the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelial cells, and those of Sls4a4a (NBCe1a), Slc4a7 (NBCn1), Slc4a10a (NBCn2a) and Slc26a1 (Sat-1) on the basolateral membrane were candidate transporters involved in HCO3- secretion. Judging from the slow effect of GN, we suggest that GN inhibits NKCC2b on the apical membrane and decreases cytosolic Cl- and Na+, which then activates apical DNDS-insensitive DRAa, b and basolateral DNDS-sensitive NBCela, n1, n2a to enhance transcellular HCO3- flux across the intestinal epithelia of seawater-acclimated eels.

Changes in ion transport and cyclic AMP (cAMP) concentration produced by addition of cholera toxin to the serosal side of isolated rabbit ileal mucosa (CTs) were compared to the changes produced by addition to the mucosal side (CTm). CTs increased short-circuit current (SCC) as did CTm but it did so more slowly. CTs, unlike CTm, did not significantly decrease electrical conductance. Inhibition of the SCC response to theophylline, a measure of preexisting secretion, was almost complete 180 min after CTm but was not yet significant 180 min after CTs. Longer (280 min) after CTs, the SCC response to theophylline was reduced by 59%, a significant reduction but less than that caused by CTm. A statistically significant change in net Cl flux could not be demonstrated after CTs, although at 280 min the measured flux was halfway between the fluxes for control and CTm tissues. Cyclic AMP concentrations were determined at 190 min, 10 min after addition of theophylline. CTs, despite little or no effect on ion transport, increased cAMP to the same level as did CTm, and the effect on cAMP of adding toxin to both sides was additive. We conclude that 1) active secretion is probably stimulated by cholera toxin added on the serosal side, although more slowly than after addition to the mucosal side and 2) much of the toxin-stimulated cAMP content of the mucosa is not coupled to secretion.

The "loop" diuretics MK-196, bumetanide, piretanide, and furosemide are all potent inhibitors of Cl transport by the dog's tracheal epithelium. In short-circuited tissues, the drugs caused significant decreases in both unidirectional Cl fluxes and in the net flux of Cl toward the lumen; the change in net Cl flux was not significantly different from the change in short-circuit current. The drugs had no effect on active Na absorption. All drugs caused a significant fall in tissue conductance. All drugs, except MK-196, were more potent from the serosal bath; MK-196 was equipotent from either side of the tissue. In experiments with isolated cells, the diuretics caused no significant changes in intracellular Na and K concentrations, a fall in intracellular Cl concentration, and approximately equal falls in Na and Cl influxes. These results suggest that the site of action of these drugs is on a basolateral linked Na-Cl entry process. Additional evidence for such a linked entry process was provided by experiments in which removal of Cl reduced Na influx and removal of Na reduced Cl influx.

Dispersed isolated cells were obtained from human tracheal mucosa by digestion with collagenase. Up to 1.5 X 10(8) cells were obtained per trachea and showed up to 95% viability, as judged by trypan blue exclusion. When grown in culture, the cells formed monolayers after approximately 4 days. Electron microscopy of the monolayers revealed a polarized structure. An apical membrane, containing microvilli and a pronounced glycocalyx, was separated from a relatively unspecialized basolateral membrane by typical tight junctions. Monolayers grown on nucleopore filters showed resistances of 44–1,800 omega. cm2 and transepithelial potential differences of 0.1–7.6 mV. Short-circuit current (Isc) was increased by isoproterenol, prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha, and bradykinin. The loop diuretic, bumetanide, reduced Isc when added to the basolateral (serosal) side but had no effect from the apical (mucosal) side of the monolayers. Furosemide and MK-196 also inhibited Isc. Mucosal amiloride inhibited Isc. Serosal amiloride or mucosal ouabain had no effect on Isc. Serosal ouabain brought Isc to zero after approximately 15 min.

The Individual

Isolated mucosal sheets of guinea pig distal colon were studied in vitro in Ussing-type chambers, using a computer-controlled voltage clamp. A conductance of 8–12 mS/cm2 and spontaneous variations of the potential difference (Vt, -4 to +6 mV) and the short-circuit current (Isc, -1.6 to +1.5 mu eq X cm-2 X h-1) were observed. With use of a green feed diet these variations could be entirely attributed to the rate of Na transport. Unidirectional Na and Cl fluxes were measured, and for Na, K, and Cl transport the individual conductances and directions were estimated from the changes in Vt and Isc, using the appropriate blockers amiloride, barium, and piretanide. The sum of the electrogenic Na, K, and Cl transport determines the spontaneous electrical behavior of this epithelium. Na transport was further characterized with transepithelial and transapical current-voltage relations. Apical Na entry occurred by diffusion, intracellular Na activity was 12 mM, and apical Na permeability was calculated as 0.02 cm/h. This study represents the first in vitro investigation of electrogenic transport in this epithelium and shows that it closely resembles transport mechanisms found in rabbit colon.

Stimulation Of

Catecholamines stimulate Na+-dependent acid secretion by Amphiuma small intestine. Studies were undertaken to localize the response within the mucosa and characterize the effect on Na+ and Cl- transport. Stripped segments of jejunum were mounted in tissue chambers that permitted isolation of villus or intervillus epithelium. In Cl-free medium, norepinephrine (NE) stimulated the transepithelial voltage (Vms) in both villus and intervillus epithelium, whereas galactose and valine elevated Vms predominately in the villus. Paired segments of whole mucosa were maintained under short circuit while the rate of acid secretion (JH) was measured by titration of the unbuffered serosal medium and unidirectional fluxes of Na+ were measured by 22Na. NE significantly stimulated net Na+ absorption (JNanet), short circuit current (Isc), and JH. Amiloride reduced JH and Isc in NE-stimulated tissues and blocked the stimulation of JNanet by NE. The NE-induced current was nearly completely and reversibly inhibited by replacement of luminal medium HCO3- or CO2. NE significantly stimulated net Cl- absorption without changing Isc or JH. It is concluded that cells throughout the mucosa respond to catecholamines with enhanced Na+ and Cl- absorption, possibly through induction or stimulation of Na+-H+ and Cl- -HCO3- exchange.

Na Uptake

1. The tissue was found to have a serosa negative potential, and short-circuit currents equivalent to the net Cl transport. 2. A significant part of the Cl uptake was Na dependent and a similar fraction of the Na uptake was Cl dependent. 3. Short-circuit current and uptake of both ions were inhibited by loop diuretics and analogues. 4. I80 and P.D. were abolished by ouabain. 5. The observations are consistent with the idea of a coupled NaCl entry into the cell, using the energy inherent in the Na gradient; Na being pumped out of the cells by the Na pump and followed electrically by Cl−. Net chloride transport and the serosa negative potential would be a consequence of the permselective properties of the junctions allowing Na but not Cl to recycle back to the mucosal solution.

1. The 28Mg-measured net flux of magnesium from lumen-side to haemolymph-side of the isolated and short-circuited midgut was 1.97 +/− 0.28 mu-equiv cm(−2) /(−1) in 8 mM-Mg2+. 2. The magnesium-influx shows a delay before the tracer steady-state is attained, indicating the existence of a magnesium-transport pool equivalent to 6.7 mu-equiv/g wet weight of midgut tissue. 3. Magnesium depresses the short-circuit current produced the midgut but not the potassium transport, the depression being equal to the rate of magnesium transport. 4. Magnesium transport yields a linear Lineweaver-Burk plot with an apparent Km of 34 mM-Mg2+ and an apparent Vmax of 14.9 mu-equiv cm(−1) /(−1). 5. Magnesium is actively transported across the midgut and contributes to the regulation of the haemolymph magnesium concentration in vivo.

This study characterized tachykinin-evoked secretomotor responses in in vitro submucosal and mucosal-submucosal preparations of the guinea pig ileum using combined intracellular and Ussing chamber recording techniques. Superfusion of endogenous tachykinins substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B depolarized single submucosal neurons and evoked increased short-circuit current ( I sc) responses in Ussing chamber preparations. The NK1-receptor agonist [Sar9,Met(O2)11]SP [50% effective concentration (EC50) = 2 nM] depolarized all submucosal neurons examined. The NK3-receptor agonist senktide (EC50 = 20 nM) depolarized ∼50% of neurons examined, whereas the NK2-receptor agonist [Ala5,β-Ala8]NKA-(4—10) had no effect on membrane potential. [Sar9,Met(O2)11]SP and senktide evoked similar increases in I sc that were tetrodotoxin sensitive (91 and 100%, respectively) and were selectively blocked by the NK1antagonist CP-99,994 and the NK3antagonist SR-142801, respectively. Capsaicin-evoked increases in I sc were significantly inhibited (54%, P < 0.05) by CP-99,994 but not by SR-142801. Neither antagonist inhibited slow excitatory postsynaptic potentials. These findings suggest that tachykinin-evoked secretion in guinea pig ileum is mediated by NK1 and NK3 receptors on submucosal secretomotor neurons and that capsaicin-sensitive nerves release tachykinin(s) that activate the NK1 receptors.

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.
