Chloride channels at the apical membrane of intestinal epithelial cells are involved in the excessive fluid secretion in diarrhea and diminished secretion in cystic fibrosis (CF). Diarrhea induced by heat-stable toxin from Escherichia coli is associated with elevated guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) in intestinal epithelial cells, but it is unknown whether chloride secretion is regulated by cGMP directly or via cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). Single-channel recordings (inside-out excised patches) from the apical membrane of T84 cells reveal a 10-pS chloride channel with a linear current-voltage relationship, which is opened when an endogenous membrane-bound PKG is activated with ATP (1 mM) and cGMP (100 microM). Soluble PKG (200 nM) isolated from bovine lung, added to the intracellular face of patches, also opens this channel. No activation occurs with Ringer solution alone or only ATP or cGMP. Addition of nonhydrolyzable forms of ATP (AMP-PNP, 1 mM) or a combination of ATP, cGMP, plus H-8 (5 microM), an inhibitor of PKG, also does not stimulate the channel. The catalytic subunit of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic mono-phosphate-dependent protein kinase (PKA, 200 nM, with 1 mM ATP) activates a channel with similar characteristics. The 10 pS channel has a PNa/PCl ratio of 0.06, an anion selectivity of Br- (1.2) greater than Cl- (1.0) greater than I- (0.8) greater than F- (0.4), and a low affinity for the chloride channel blockers, 4,4-dinitrostilbene-2,2-disulfonic acid and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Heat-stable enterotoxins activate guanylate cyclase, whereas heat-labile enterotoxins stimulate adenylate cyclase. Both classes of toxins cause secretory diarrhea at least in part by stimulating Cl- secretion in the intestine. The mechanism for regulation of Cl- secretion by guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) was investigated using cultured T84 intestinal cells as a model for intestinal crypt cells. Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) markedly stimulated cGMP production in T84 cells. Cl- secretion across T84 cell monolayers cultured on permeable filters was stimulated by E. coli ST, cholera toxin, or 8-BrcAMP, but 8-BrcGMP was ineffective. cGMP analogues that are known to be potent and specific activators of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cG-kinase) also had little effect on 36Cl- uptake by T84 cells cultured in plastic dishes. E. coli ST, forskolin, cholera toxin, or membrane-permeant cAMP analogues markedly increased 36Cl- uptake into T84 cells. The general protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine, inhibited the stimulation of Cl- permeability elicited by E. coli ST, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), or 8-BrcAMP. DEAE-Sephacel chromatography revealed a predominant type II isoform of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cA-kinase) in T84 cells, whereas little or no cytosolic cG-kinase activity was found. Treatment of T84 cells with E. coli ST or VIP resulted in an increase in the cA-kinase activity ratio (-cAMP/+cAMP) if the cytosolic enzyme was assayed at reduced temperature (on ice).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Escherichia coli produces a heat-stable (STa) enterotoxin that belongs to a family of peptides that mediate several diarrheal diseases, including traveler's diarrhea and epidemic diarrhea in infants and newborns. The STa enterotoxin consists of 18 or 19 amino acids and is encoded by genes specified on a transposon. Intestinal secretion is induced by specific binding to high affinity receptors that reside on the brush border cell membrane of the small intestine. Receptor activation by STa enterotoxin induces a sequence of events that culminate in the release of fluid and electrolytes into the intestinal lumen. These events include the stimulation of particulate guanylate cyclae and subsequent increase of intracellular cyclic GMP, involvement of particulate protein kinase, elevation of intracellular calcium, and activation of the phosphatidylinositol pathway. The release of archidonic acid and production of prostaglandins and/or leukotrienes have also been implicated in the action of STa. Evidence indicates that the STa enterotoxin receptor may be a single multifunctional membrane protein.

The ability of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) to cause diarrhoea in man is associated with the formation of characteristic histopathological lesions in small-intestine enterocytes, with gross cytoskeletal damage and loss of brush-border microvilli. Investigation of enterocyte protein phosphorylation in response to EPEC infection showed that the major phosphorylated protein, identified by immunoprecipitation, is myosin light-chain--an important cytoskeletal protein known to affect actin organisation in non-muscle cells. High enterocyte concentrations of actin and myosin were observed at sites of bacterial infection. Our findings indicate that enterocyte cytoskeletal changes in response to EPEC may be directly triggered by bacterial adherence through signal transduction pathways that stimulate protein kinase activity.

This study examines the effects of endotoxin on intestinal water and electrolyte transport in adult male rats. Endotoxin (1.55 mg/kg, intravenously) reduced in vivo colonic saline absorption 61% in 1 hour. In vitro unidirectional and net 22Na and 36Cl fluxes showed that endotoxin significantly decreased net colonic 22Na absorption compared with control colons (0.3 +/- 1.7 vs. 4.8 +/- 1.1 microEq/h x cm2). Although endotoxin had no significant effect on basal short circuit current (Isc) and conductance, 3H-inulin flux studies suggested an increase in colonic permeability. Isc responses to the 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent secretagogues prostaglandin E2 (1 mumol/L) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (0.1 mumol/L) were diminished by 80% and 50%, respectively. However, cytosolic cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity under basal and stimulated (6 mumol/L 8-bromo-cAMP) conditions was not altered by endotoxin treatment. The Isc responses to 10 mumol/L bethanechol, a Ca(2+)-dependent agonist, were not effected by endotoxin treatment. It was concluded that endotoxin significantly affects colonic transport function and may contribute to the development of diarrhea in inflammatory bowel diseases.

A wide range of different stimuli is perceived by the intestinal epithelium. They include luminal factors, especially bacterial toxins, and agonists such as inflammatory mediators and neuro peptides, acting from the interstitial fluid surrounding the epithelial cells. It is likely that in any individual patient with diarrhoea there is a range of stimuli acting upon the epithelium. Specific receptors on the apical and basolateral membrane, activated by these stimuli, transduce the perceived signals to stimulate a series of membrane-bound enzyme systems. They in turn generate second messengers which are liberated into the cytoplasm. These include cyclic adenosine monophosphate, cyclic guanosine monophosphate, inositol triphosphate (which goes on to liberate free calcium), and diacyl glycerol. Each of these second messengers activates a different protein kinase, each of which then induces the phosphorylation of a series of cytoplasmic and membrane-bound proteins. Each of the protein kinases is likely to influence the activity of the others so that their effects are closely integrated. The final common pathways through which intestinal secretory stimuli pass involve the opening of an anion channel in the apical membrane, together with the stimulated uptake of chloride at the basolateral membrane. Anions, especially chloride and possibly bicarbonate, are then secreted into the lumen, and sodium and water passing between the cells accompany them. The net result is secretion of salt and water, which lies at the centre of a number of diarrhoeal diseases.

Massive secretory diarrhea is associated with some villous adenomas. The mechanism of this secretion is unknown but the character of the diarrhea resembles that of cyclic nucleotide-mediated diarrheas. We have compared the cyclic nucleotide metabolism of a large secretory villous adenoma with a nonsecretory villous adenoma, a solid carcinoma and their normal mucosae. The adenylate cyclase, cyclic AMP content, and a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase ratios in the secretory tumor were increased as compared to these values in the nonsecretory tumors and normal mucosae, a situation similar to that seen with cholera toxin-induced diarrhea. Our data suggest that the massive diarrhea in our patient with a secretory villous adenoma may be related to increased adenylate cyclase activity.

Heat-stable enterotoxins (STa) produced by pathogenic bacteria induce profound salt and water secretion in the gut, leading to diarrhea. Recently, guanylin, an endogenous peptide with properties similar to STa, was identified. While STa and guanylin bind to the same receptor guanylyl cyclase and raise cell cGMP, the signaling mechanism distal to cGMP remains controversial. Here we show that STa, guanylin and cGMP each activate intestinal Cl- secretion, and that this is abolished by inhibitors of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), suggesting that PKA is a major mediator of this effect. These agents induce Cl- secretion only in cells expressing the wild-type CFTR, indicating that this molecule is the final common effector of the signaling pathway. The involvement of CFTR suggests a possible cystic fibrosis heterozygote advantage against STa-induced diarrhea.

Heat-stable enterotoxin, produced by Escherichia coli, binds to particulate guanylate cyclase to increase cyclic GMP in intestinal cells. This in turn stimulates the cyclic-GMP- or cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, activating the same chloride channel that is defective in cystic fibrosis. It is possible that the relatively high prevalence of cystic fibrosis in humans results from its protective effect against diarrhea.

Certain pathogenic bacteria produce a family of heat stable enterotoxins (STa) which activate intestinal guanylyl cyclases, increase cGMP, and elicit life-threatening secretory diarrhea. The intracellular effector of cGMP actions has not been clarified. Recently we cloned the cDNA for a rat intestinal type II cGMP dependent protein kinase (cGK II) which is highly enriched in intestinal mucosa. Here we show that cGK II mRNA and protein are restricted to the intestinal segments from the duodenum to the proximal colon, with the highest amounts of cGK II protein in duodenum and jejunum. cGK II mRNA and protein decreased along the villus to crypt axis in the small intestine, whereas substantial amounts of both were found in the crypts of cecum. In intestinal epithelia, cGK II was specifically localized in the apical membrane, a major site of ion transport regulation. In contrast to cGK II, cGK I was localized in smooth muscle cells of the villus lamina propria. Short circuit current (ISC), a measure of Cl- secretion, was increased to a similar extent by STa and by 8-Br-cGMP, a selective activator of cGK, except in distal colon and in monolayers of T84 human colon carcinoma cells in which cGK II was not detected. In human and mouse intestine, the cyclic nucleotide-regulated Cl- conductance can be exclusively accounted for by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel. Viewed collectively, the data suggest that cGK II is the mediator of STa and cGMP effects on Cl- transport in intestinal-epithelia.
