Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR)-mediated polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA) transcytosis across mucosal epithelial cells plays an essential role in mucosal immunity. The general trafficking process has been well investigated, yet the elaborate regulatory mechanisms remain enigmatic. We identified a new pIgR interacting protein, the Rab11 effector Rab11-FIP1. Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 knockdown additively impaired pIgA transcytosis in both polarized and incompletely polarized cells. Moreover, Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 knockdown exhibited more significant inhibitory effects on pIgA transcytosis in incompletely polarized cells than in polarized cells. Interestingly, the trafficking process of pIgA in incompletely polarized cells is distinct from that in polarized cells. In incompletely polarized cells, the endocytic pIgR/pIgA was first transported from the basolateral plasma membrane to the vicinity of the centrosome where Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 bound to it, before the Rab11a-positive endosomes containing pIgR/pIgA, Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 were further transported to the apical plasma membrane via Golgi apparatus. During the trafficking process, TRIM21 mediated the K11-linked polyubiquitination of Rab11-FIP1 and the K6-linked polyubiquitination of Rab11-FIP5 to promote their activation and pIgA transcytosis. This study indicates that polyubiquitinated Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 mediated by TRIM21 cooperatively facilitate pIgA transcytosis and provides new insights into the intracellular trafficking process of pIgA in incompletely polarized cells.

Certain epithelial cells synthesize the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) to transport immunoglobulins (Igs) A and M into external secretions. In polarized epithelia, newly synthesized receptor is first delivered to the basolateral plasma membrane and is then, after binding the Ig, transcytosed to the apical plasma membrane, where the receptor-ligand complex is released by proteolytic cleavage. In a previous work (Ikonen et al., 1993), we implied the existence of a dendro-axonal transcytotic pathway for the rabbit pIgR expressed in hippocampal neurons via the Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) expression system. By labeling surface-exposed pIgR in live neuronal cells, we now show (a) internalization of the receptor from the dendritic plasma membrane to the dendritic early endosomes, (b) redistribution of the receptor from the dendritic to the axonal domain, (c) inhibition of this movement by brefeldin A (BFA) and (d) stimulation by the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) via phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). In addition, we show that a mutant form of the receptor lacking the epithelial basolateral sorting signal is directly delivered to the axonal domain of hippocampal neurons. Although this mutant is internalized into early endosomes, no transcytosis to the dendrites could be observed. In epithelial Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells, the mutant receptor could also be internalized into basolaterally derived early endosomes. These results suggest the existence of a dendro-axonal transcytotic pathway in neuronal cells which shares similarities with the basolateral to apical transcytosis in epithelial cells and constitute the basis for the future analysis of its physiological role.

Abstract The Na+/iodide (I−) symporter (NIS), a glycoprotein expressed at the basolateral plasma membrane of thyroid follicular cells, mediates I− accumulation for thyroid hormonogenesis and radioiodide therapy for differentiated thyroid carcinoma. However, differentiated thyroid tumors often exhibit lower I− transport than normal thyroid tissue (or even undetectable I− transport). Paradoxically, the majority of differentiated thyroid cancers show intracellular NIS expression, suggesting abnormal targeting to the plasma membrane. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the mechanisms that regulate NIS plasma membrane transport would have multiple implications for radioiodide therapy. In this study, we show that the intracellularly facing carboxy-terminus of NIS is required for the transport of the protein to the plasma membrane. Moreover, the carboxy-terminus contains dominant basolateral information. Using internal deletions and site-directed mutagenesis at the carboxy-terminus, we identified a highly conserved monoleucine-based sorting motif that determines NIS basolateral expression. Furthermore, in clathrin adaptor protein (AP)-1B–deficient cells, NIS sorting to the basolateral plasma membrane is compromised, causing the protein to also be expressed at the apical plasma membrane. Computer simulations suggest that the AP-1B subunit σ1 recognizes the monoleucine-based sorting motif in NIS carboxy-terminus. Although the mechanisms by which NIS is intracellularly retained in thyroid cancer remain elusive, our findings may open up avenues for identifying molecular targets that can be used to treat radioiodide-refractory thyroid tumors that express NIS intracellularly.

Abstract. Immunofluorescence analysis has revealed that electrogenic Na+/HCO3- (NBC1) is expressed in the proximal tubule of rat kidney and in the proximal and distal tubules of the salamander Ambystoma tigrinum kidney. The present study was undertaken to define the detailed subcellular localization of the NBC1 in rat and Ambystoma kidney using high-resolution immunoelectron microscopy. For this purpose, two rabbit polyclonal antibodies raised against amino acids 928 to 1035 and amino acids 1021 to 1035 of the C-terminus of rat kidney (rkNBC1) were developed. The affinity-purified antibodies revealed a strong band of approximately 140 kD in immunoblots of membranes from rat kidney cortex but no signal in membranes isolated from outer and inner medulla. Deglycosylation reduced the apparent molecular weight to approximately 120 kD, corresponding to the predicted molecular weight. A similar but weaker band was also present in membranes isolated from the lateral part of Ambystoma kidney. In rat kidney, immunohistochemistry confirmed the presence of rkNBC1 in convoluted segments of the proximal tubules. In ultrathin cryosections or Lowicryl HM20 sections from rat kidney cortex, distinct immunogold labeling was associated with the basolateral plasma membrane of segments S1 and S2 of proximal tubules, whereas in S3 no labeling was observed. The labeling density was similar at the basal and lateral plasma membrane and was specifically associated with the inner surface of the membrane consistent with the internal position of the C-terminus of the transporter. In contrast, rkNBC1 was absent from the apical plasma membrane and not observed in intracellular vesicles, including those closely associated with basolateral plasma membrane. In Ambystoma kidney, a weak labeling was present in the basolateral membrane of the proximal tubule and stronger labeling was observed in the late distal segment. The results demonstrate that rkNBC1 is expressed only in segment S1 and segment S2 of rat proximal tubule as well as Ambystoma proximal and late distal tubule and that rkNBC1 is present in both basal and lateral plasma membranes and absent in intracellular vesicles of the apical plasma membrane.

Many vertebrate transporting epithelia contain characteristic ‘mitochondria-rich’ cells that express high levels of a vacuolar proton-pumping ATPase (H(+)V-ATPase) on their plasma membrane and on intracellular vesicles. In the kidney cortex, A-cells and B-cells are involved in proton secretion and bicarbonate secretion, respectively, in the distal nephron and collecting duct. A-cells have an H(+)V-ATPase on their apical plasma membrane and on intracellular vesicles, whereas the cellular location of the H(+)V-ATPase can be apical, basolateral, bipolar or diffuse in B-cells. The rat epididymis and vas deferens also contain a distinct population of H(+)V-ATPase-rich epithelial cells. These cells are involved in generating a low luminal pH, which is involved in sperm maturation and in maintaining sperm in an immotile state during their passage through the epididymis and vas deferens. In both kidney and reproductive tract, H(+)V-ATPase-rich cells have a high rate of apical membrane recycling. H(+)V-ATPase molecules are transported between the cell surface and the cytoplasm in vesicles that have a well-defined ‘coat’ structure formed of the peripheral V(1) subunits of the H(+)V-ATPase. In addition, we propose that B-type intercalated cells have a transcytotic pathway that enables them to shuttle H(+)V-ATPase molecules from apical to basolateral plasma membrane domains. This hypothesis is supported by data showing that A-cells and B-cells have different intracellular trafficking pathways for LGP120, a lysosomal glycoprotein. LGP120 was found both on the basolateral plasma membrane and in lysosomes in B-cells, whereas no LGP120 was detectable in the plasma membrane of A-cells. We propose that the ‘polarity reversal’ of the H(+)V-ATPase in B-intercalated cells is mediated by a physiologically regulated transcytotic pathway that may be similar to that existing in some other cell types.

We previously showed that in polarized Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is continuously targeted to the basolateral plasma membrane from which it is rapidly retrieved by clathrin-mediated endocytosis. It then undertakes microtubule-dependent transcytosis toward the apical plasma membrane. In this study, we found that treatment with chlorpromazine (CPZ, an inhibitor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis) results in AQP2 accumulation in the basolateral, but not the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells. In MDCK cells, both AQP2 and clathrin were concentrated in the basolateral plasma membrane after CPZ treatment (100 µM for 15 min), and endocytosis was reduced. Then, using rhodamine phalloidin staining, we found that basolateral, but not apical, F-actin was selectively reduced by CPZ treatment. After incubation of rat kidney slices in situ with CPZ (200 µM for 15 min), basolateral AQP2 and clathrin were increased in principal cells, which simultaneously showed a significant decrease of basolateral compared to apical F-actin staining. These results indicate that clathrin-dependent transcytosis of AQP2 is an essential part of its trafficking pathway in renal epithelial cells and that this process can be inhibited by selectively depolymerizing the basolateral actin pool using CPZ.

The Na-K-Cl cotransporter (NKCC or BSC) has been described in numerous secretory and reabsorptive epithelia and is an important part of the mechanism of NaCl reabsorption in both the mammalian and elasmobranch kidneys. We have recently developed a panel of four monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) raised to the 195-kDa Na-K-Cl cotransport protein of the shark rectal gland (sNKCC1), which is expressed along the basolateral plasma membrane of secretory cells in this tissue (29). Here, we report immunologic studies of the Na-K-Cl cotransporter in the kidney of the dogfish shark Squalus acanthias. Western blot analysis of shark renal microsomes using MAbs J3, J7, and J25 identified proteins of approximately 195 and 150 kDa, whereas MAb J4 was not reactive. To define the cellular and subcellular distribution of the cotransport protein, immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy studies were performed on fixed kidneys. Immunofluorescence microscopy on semithin (0.5-micron) cryosections demonstrated that MAbs J3, J7, and J25 intensely stained the apical plasma membrane of all distal tubule segments. Weak staining was also seen along the basolateral membrane of most distal nephrons. Immunoelectron microscopy confirmed this observation and showed that some of these segments were morphologically similar to diluting segments from other species. MAbs also reacted with the brush border and, to a lesser extent, the basolateral membrane of proximal tubules. This study supports the hypothesis that the lateral bundle zone of the elasmobranch kidney functions as a countercurrent exchanger and is consistent with the presence of multiple isoforms of the Na-K-Cl cotransporter in the shark kidney.

The highly conserved Rab guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Rab8 plays a role in exocytosis toward the polarized plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells. In murine Rab8-deficient small intestine cells, apical proteins are missorted into lysosomes. In this study, we identified a novel Rab8-interacting protein complex containing an EH domain–binding protein 1–like 1 (EHBP1L1), Bin1/amphiphysin II, and dynamin. Biochemical analyses showed that EHBP1L1 directly bound to GTP-loaded Rab8 and Bin1. The spatial dependency of these complexes at the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC) was demonstrated through overexpression and knockdown experiments. EHBP1L1- or Bin1-depleted or dynamin-inhibited small intestine organoids significantly accumulated apical membrane proteins but not basolateral membrane proteins in lysosomes. Furthermore, in EHBP1L1-deficient mice, small intestine cells displayed truncated and sparse microvilli, suggesting that EHBP1L1 maintains the apical plasma membrane by regulating apical transport. In summary, our data demonstrate that EHBP1L1 links Rab8 and the Bin1–dynamin complex, which generates membrane curvature and excises the vesicle at the ERC for apical transport.

In normal rabbit, immunolabeling of intercalated cells in the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD) demonstrates band 3-like protein in the basolateral plasma membrane (15) and H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase) in the apical plasma membrane and cytoplasmic vesicles (30). However, in type A intercalated cells in the cortical collecting duct (CCD), band 3-like protein is located primarily in multivesicular bodies and cytoplasmic vesicles (15), whereas H(+)-ATPase is present in cytoplasmic vesicles only in most intercalated cells (30). In this study, we observed the effect of chronic acid loading on immunolocalization of these transporters in the collecting duct. Adult New Zealand White rabbits received either normal tap water (controls) or 75 mM NH4Cl for 12 days plus eight daily gavages of 2-6 meq NH4Cl/kg body wt. At time of death, mean urine pH of acid-loaded animals was 5.96 (SD = 0.69), vs. 8.47 (SD = 0.07) in controls. Kidneys were fixed by in vivo perfusion and processed for light and electron microscopic immunoperoxidase localization of band 3-like protein and immunogold localization of H(+)-ATPase. In controls, band 3-like protein was largely confined to multivesicular bodies in the majority of positive-staining intercalated cells in the CCD and to the basolateral plasma membrane of intercalated cells in the OMCD. In acid-loaded rabbits, band 3 protein-positive intercalated cells in the inner CCD and the in the outer stripe of the OMCD (OMCDo) were strikingly stellate in form. Basolateral plasma membrane label was intensified, while the number of labeled multivesicular bodies was diminished. Morphometric analysis demonstrated an increase in the amount of basolateral plasma membrane in these intercalated cells. In control rabbits, H(+)-ATPase immunoreactivity in intercalated cells in the CCD was located predominantly over cytoplasmic vesicles. A minority of intercalated cells exhibited basolateral plasma membrane label, and only an occasional cell displayed apical plasma membrane label. In acid-loaded rabbits, H(+)-ATPase immunoreactivity was enhanced along the apical plasma membrane of intercalated cells in the inner CCD, and morphometric analysis demonstrated increased apical plasma membrane in band 3-positive intercalated cells in this segment. These results suggest that rabbits respond to acid loading via enhancement of both electrogenic proton secretion and Cl-/HCO3- exchange in intercalated cells in the inner CCD and the OMCDo.
