In dog proximal tubules in suspension, the addition of glucose increased significantly the ouabain-sensitive fraction of respiration, a response suppressed by phlorizin. The addition of alpha-methyl-D-glucoside (alpha-MG) had a modest effect and 3-O-methyl-D-glucoside (3-O-MG) had no effect. The different stimulation of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity elicited for each hexose could be explained by a different increment of net transepithelial flux of sodium induced by the sodium: hexose cotransport. This flux is a direct function of the transport characteristics of both luminal and antiluminal membranes of proximal cells for these sugars: glucose is rapidly transported by both membranes (allowing a large transepithelial flux of glucose: sodium) while alpha-MG is poorly transported by the basolateral, and 3-O-MG by the luminal, membrane of the dog proximal tubule (allowing a small transepithelial flux of hexoses and sodium). However the overall tubular respiration of dog proximal tubules was not increased by glucose addition because the increment in the ouabain-sensitive fraction was accompanied by a reciprocal decrement in an ouabain-insensitive but oligomycin- or N',N' dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-sensitive (or in the bafilomycin-sensitive) component of respiration. This component reflects the activity of a large BBM-bound H(+)-ATPase found in this species. The intracellular pH of dog proximal tubules in suspension was measured using the proton-sensitive fluorescent probe 2',7'-bis-2-(carboxyethyl)-5, (and 6)-carboxyfluorescein. Glucose application significantly alkalinized the cells. In contrast, other substrates such as lactate or acetate simultaneously acidified the cells and increased the ouabain-insensitive phosphorylative respiration of dog tubules. These observations suggest that a modulation of the activities of both the sodium and most probably the proton pump is elicited by substrate availability in suspensions of proximal tubules.

Stimulation of gastric acid secretion is mediated by cAMP which regulates the proton pump through an A-kinase-dependent phosphoprotein. The purpose of this study was to isolate a stimulation-dependent gastric phosphoprotein capable of stimulating acid secretion. Gastric glands were prepared from rabbit gastric mucosa and acid secretion was stimulated with cAMP. A detergent extract of these stimulated gastric membranes was fractionated by gel chromatography and assayed for functional activity by measurement of [14C]-aminopyrine accumulation in permeabilized resting gastric glands or measurement of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in inhibited gastric microsomes. We hereby report isolation of a membrane-bound, A-kinase-dependent phosphoprotein which enhances aminopyrine accumulation in digitonin-permeabilized gastric glands (32%) and stimulates H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in gastric microsomes to a level 55% of the maximal stimulation observed in the presence of valinomycin. Incubation of this phosphoprotein with [32P]ATP and the catalytic subunit of A-kinase resulted in [32P] incorporation into a protein which coincided with a single protein band on SDS-PAGE (17,500 Da).

Osteoclasts are primary cells responsible for bone resorption. The most characteristic feature of osteoclasts is the presence of ruffled borders and clear zones. The resorbing area under the ruffled border of osteoclasts is acidic, which favors dissolution of bone mineral. In bone-resorbing osteoclasts, hydrogen ions are provided by carbonic anhydrase II, which catalyzes the hydration of CO2 to H2CO3. Recently, it has been shown that the proton pump of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase type exists in the ruffled border membranes of osteoclasts. Secretion of hydrogen ions by osteoclasts generates an equal amount of cytoplasmic base equivalents, principally as HCO3-. Osteoclasts have a chloride/bicarbonate exchanger, which normalizes the intracellular pH when osteoclasts actively resorb bone. In this paper, we review the mechanism of the acid secretion by osteoclasts.

A continuous flow method was developed for determining the stoichiometry of the gastric proton pump H,K-ATPase in its hydrolysis of ATP, translocation of H+ and the K+ congener 86Rb+. H,K-ATPase-containing vesicles which had been isolated from pig gastric mucosa were incubated at 37 degrees C for 2 h in 150 mM 86RbCl, 0.5 mM EGTA and 3 mM Mes-buffer adjusted to pH 6.1 with Tris, and then applied to a 0.45 micron pore size filter. The immobilized vesicles were superfused with 0.15 mM Mes/Tris buffer, pH 6.1, containing 150 mM choline-Cl and 0.2 mM MgCl2. After the medium was changed to one containing 0.1 mM ATP, the amounts and rates of H+ uptake, 86Rb+ efflux, and ATP hydrolysis were measured in fractions collected after the filter. The initial ratio of transported Rb+ to hydrolysed ATP gave values of 0.96 +/- 0.26 (mean +/- SD, n = 28). The initial ratio of ATP-dependent Rb+ efflux to H+ uptake gave values of 0.92 +/- 0.28 (mean +/- SD, n = 28). The MgATPase activity was measured in vesicles which had been incubated with choline-Cl instead of RbCl. In the initial fractions used for calculation of the stoichiometry, the MgATPase activity was 15.8% +/- 8.7 (mean +/- S.D.) of the maximal ATPase activity obtained with Rb(+)-loaded vesicles. The MgATPase may be an intrinsic activity of the H,K-ATPase. However, whether corrections were made for the MgATPase or not, it had only marginal effects on the calculations of the stoichiometry of the pump.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Little data exists regarding the activity of gastric parietal cells in the very immature infant. Therefore we have examined the developing human stomach for the presence and location of parietal cells, using both standard histological methods and antibodies to the H+/K+ ATPase (proton pump) and intrinsic factor, in 35 fetuses (ranging from 13-28 weeks) and in five infants (2-21 weeks). Parietal cell activity was noted in the body, antrum and pyloric regions in all the fetal specimens examined. However, this activity was much more limited in the infant specimens. We have noted that from the end of the first trimester parietal cells are present in a mature, functional form with the potential to secrete both gastric acid and intrinsic factor.

The proton pump, a H+/K(+)-ATPase located on the secretory canalicular membrane of the parietal cell, forms the final pathway for gastric acid secretion. Omeprazole is concentrated in the secretory canaliculus, where it is converted to its active form, which binds covalently with the H+/K(+)-ATPase, thus inhibiting acid secretion arising from any stimulus. Meta-analysis has defined the primary determinants for peptic ulcer healing as the degree of acid suppression, the duration of suppression over 24 hours, and the length of treatment. The longer duration of acid suppression with omeprazole, particularly during the day, when food is ingested and H2-receptor antagonists are less effective, is reflected in the clinical superiority for symptom relief and ulcer healing and especially for the treatment of erosive esophagitis. Extensive clinical experience has proved omeprazole to be safe, and concerns over hypergastrinemia, ECL-cell hyperplasia, and carcinoid formation have not been substantiated in humans. Recent evidence has shown that omeprazole suppresses Helicobacter pylori and, in combination with antibiotics, can eradicate this organism in a substantial proportion of patients. This effect may result from enhancement of antibiotic bioavailability and optimizing host defense mechanisms.

Gastric acid secretion is regulated by an intricate interplay of neural (acetylcholine), hormonal (gastrin), and paracrine (histamine, somatostatin) mechanisms. Receptors for each of these agents and the signal transduction pathways to which these receptors are coupled have been identified on the parietal cell. The stimulatory effect of acetylcholine and gastrin is mediated by an increase in cytosolic calcium, whereas that of histamine is mediated by activation of adenylate cyclase and generation of cAMP. Strong potentiation between histamine and either gastrin or acetylcholine reflects postreceptor interaction between the distinct pathways as well as the ability of acetylcholine and gastrin to release histamine from mucosal ECL cells. The inhibitory effects of somatostatin on acid secretion are mediated by receptors coupled by guanine nucleotide-binding proteins to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. All the pathways converge on and modulate the activity of the luminal enzyme, H+K(+)-ATPase, the proton pump of the parietal cell. Precise information on the mechanisms involved in gastric acid secretion has led to the development of potent drugs capable of inhibiting acid secretion. These include competitive antagonists that interact with stimulatory receptors (e.g., histamine H2-receptor antagonists) as well as noncompetitive inhibitors of H+K(+)-ATPase (e.g., omeprazole). The histamine H2-receptor antagonists (cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine, and nizatidine) continue as first-line therapy for peptic ulcer disease and are effective in preventing relapse. Although they are generally well tolerated, histamine H2-receptor antagonists may cause untoward CNS, cardiac, and endocrine effects as well as interference with the absorption, metabolism, and elimination of various drugs. Omeprazole is a weak base that reaches the parietal cell through the bloodstream, diffuses through the cytoplasm, and becomes activated and trapped as a sulfenamide in the acidic canaliculus of the parietal cell. It covalently binds to H+K(+)-ATPase, thereby irreversibly blocking acid secretion in response to all modes of stimulation. The main drawback to its use is its extreme potency, which leads to virtual anacidity, gastrin and ECL cell hyperplasia, hypergastrinemia, and, in rats, to the development of carcinoid tumors.

The alpha and beta subunits of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase (proton pump) have been identified as the major molecular targets of parietal cell autoantibodies associated with pernicious anaemia and with murine experimental autoimmune gastritis (EAG) induced by neonatal thymectomy. Recent studies with EAG suggest that the mechanisms of peripheral tolerance and autoimmunity to extrathymic autoantigens are mediated by subsets of "regulator" and "effector" CD4+ T cells, respectively. The persistence of "effector" CD4+ autoreactive T cells in the periphery may be a direct consequence of the delayed developmental expression of the target autoantigen. We hypothesize that cytokines produced by the "regulator" T cells prevent the clonal expansion of the "effector" autoreactive T cells, and that neonatal thymectomy induces organ-specific autoimmunity in genetically susceptible individuals by the reduction of the "regulator" T cell population.

The 44-amino-acid E5 oncoprotein is the major transforming protein of bovine papillomavirus type 1. It is a highly hydrophobic polypeptide which dimerizes and localizes to the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membranes. Recent evidence suggests that E5 modulates the phosphorylation and internalization of the epidermal growth factor and colony-stimulating factor 1 receptors and constitutively activates platelet-derived growth factor receptors in C127 and FR3T3 cells. Although no direct interaction with these growth factor receptors has yet been identified, the E5 oncoprotein has been shown recently to interact with the hydrophobic 16-kDa component of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (16K protein) [D. J. Goldstein, M. E. Finbow, T. Andresson, P. McLean, K. Smith, V. Bubb, and R. Schlegel, Nature (London) 352:347-349, 1991]. In the current study, we have further analyzed the E5-16K protein complex by fast protein liquid chromatography and shown that each E5 dimer appears to bind two 16K proteins. In order to define the specific amino acid residues of E5 which participate in this binding, mutated E5 epitope fusion proteins were analyzed for their ability to coprecipitate 16K protein. Transformation-defective mutants containing amino acid substitutions within the short hydrophilic carboxyl-terminal domain retained the ability to associate with the 16K protein. However, E5 mutants lacking the glutamine residue in the hydrophobic domain were markedly inhibited in 16K protein binding. Most interestingly, the placement of a glutamine in several random hydrophobic sequences facilitated 16K protein binding, defining this residue as a potential binding site for the 16K protein component of the proton pump and exemplifying the critical role of hydrophilic amino acids for mediating specific interactions between transmembrane proteins.

The intercalated cells of the kidney collecting duct are specialized for physiologically regulated proton transport. In these cells, a vacuolar H(+)-ATPase is expressed at enormous levels in a polarized distribution on the plasma membrane, enabling it to serve in transepithelial H+ transport. In contrast, in most eukaryotic cells, vacuolar H(+)-ATPases reside principally in intracellular compartments to effect vacuolar acidification. To investigate the basis for the selective amplification of the proton pump in intercalated cells, we isolated and sequenced cDNA clones for two isoforms of the approximately 56-kDa subunit of the H(+)-ATPase and examined their expression in various tissues. The predicted amino acid sequence of the isoforms was highly conserved in the internal region but diverged in the amino and carboxyl termini. mRNA hybridization to a cDNA probe for one isoform (the "kidney" isoform) was detected only in kidney cortex and medulla, whereas mRNA hybridization to the other isoform of the approximately 56-kDa subunit and to the H(+)-ATPase 31-kDa subunit was found in the kidney and other tissues. Immunocytochemistry of rat kidney with an antibody specific to the kidney isoform revealed intense staining only in the intercalated cells. Staining was absent from proximal tubule and thick ascending limb, where H(+)-ATPase was detected with a monoclonal antibody to the 31-kDa subunit of the H(+)-ATPase. This example of specific amplification of an isoform of one subunit of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase being limited to a specific cell type suggests that the selective expression of the kidney isoform of the approximately 56-kDa subunit may confer the capacity for amplification and other specialized functions of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase in the renal intercalated cell.
