Turtle urinary bladder possesses four ion transport processes: Na+ absorption, H+ secretion, and HCO3- secretion-Cl- absorption. Each transport process is performed by a specific epithelial cell type. Granular cells absorb Na+ but they are not sensitive to antidiuretic hormone (ADH), unlike toad bladder granular cells. alpha-Carbonic anhydrase-rich (CA) cells secrete H+ via an apical H+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase). Under conditions of low CO2 tension, this active pump is contained in the limiting membranes of certain cytoplasmic vesicles. The vesicles fuse with the apical membrane, and H+ pumps are incorporated into that membrane, as physiological conditions demand increased H+ secretion. The stimulus for fusion of these vesicles with the apical membrane appears to be intracellular acidification. beta-CA cells secrete HCO3- and reabsorb Cl-, both processes driven by H+-ATPase in the basolateral membrane in series with an apical Cl- -HCO3- exchanger. Increased intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate concentration in beta-cells stimulates net HCO3- secretion and induces an electrogenic component of this flux by activating an apical Cl- channel. This activation accompanies the fusion of an intracellular tubulovesicular network with the apical membrane. The membrane of this network may contain Cl- channels.

To study proximal tubule bicarbonate absorption that is not due to the neutral Na+-H+ antiporter, mid to late proximal convolutions of the rat kidney were microperfused in vivo with a sodium-free choline solution containing 10(-3) M amiloride. The average sodium concentration resulting from sodium influx was 12 mM. At such low intraluminal [Na+], 10(-3) M amiloride should have inhibited the Na+-H+ antiporter by greater than 95%. When 25 mM HCO3- was in the perfusion fluid, measured total CO2 absorption was 100 pmol.mm-1.min-1. When luminal [HCO3-] was raised to 50 mM, and blood [HCO3-] was also raised to approximately 50 mM to avoid a transepithelial HCO3- concentration gradient, total CO2 absorption increased to greater than 300 pmol.mm-1.min-1. Thus raising intraluminal HCO3- concentration caused a marked increase in total CO2 absorption even though intraluminal [Na+] was low and amiloride was present. Control perfusions containing 140 mM Na+ yielded total CO2 absorption that was approximately 100 pmol.mm-1.min-1 higher than with the respective sodium-free perfusion solutions. In additional experiments, either DCCD or NEM was added to sodium-free perfusion solutions to inhibit H+-ATPase. These inhibitors reduced Na+-H+ independent total CO2 absorption markedly. Our observations suggest that under physiological acid-base conditions, sodium-independent H+ secretion can account for approximately 50% of total HCO3- absorption in mid to late proximal convolutions. This mechanism is stimulated by an increase in ambient HCO(-3) concentration to a degree that might account for the load-dependency of proximal HCO(-3) absorption in these segments of the proximal tubule.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of cisplatin (5 mg/kg BW given intraperitoneally) on renal concentration mechanism were evaluated initially by clearance studies in rats 5-7 days after cisplatin administration and compared to normal rats. During hypotonic saline infusion, cisplatin rats showed a lower inulin clearance (0.56 +/- 0.07 vs. 1.12 +/- 0.09 ml/min/100 g BW, p less than 0.01), a higher fractional distal delivery (CNa + CH2O/Cin) (36.3 +/- 4.4 vs. 22.8 +/- 4.5%, p less than 0.05), and lower CH2O/CNa + CH2O (33.6 +/- 5.8 vs. 56.5 +/- 5.0%, p less than 0.01). During hypertonic saline infusion the TcH2O/Cosm was lower in cisplatin (18.3 +/- 1.1%) than in normal rats (33.4 +/- 3.5%, p less than 0.01). These results suggest a defect in NaCl transport in the thick ascending limb of Henle and proximal tubule. In order to characterize these tubular defects, we measured Na-K-ATPase activity (microM Pi/mg protein/h). In the renal cortex of cisplatin rats the ATPase activity was lower (18.1 +/- 3.2) than in normal rats (33.4 +/- 6.4, p less than 0.05), also in the inner strip of the outer medulla of cisplatin rats Na-K-ATPase was reduced (26.0 +/- 5.7) when compared with normal rats (67.3 +/- 9.2, p less than 0.01), presumably representing a decrease in enzyme activity in the thick ascending limb.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We examined the hypothesis that proton-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (H-K-ATPase) mediates K absorption and acidification in the inner stripe of the outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi). Rabbits were fed a low-K diet (0.55% K) for 7-14 d because we have demonstrated previously that this low-K diet stimulates K-absorptive flux by the OMCDi. Proton secretion was measured as net total CO2 flux (JTCO2) by microcalorimetry. After basal collections, either vehicle or an inhibitor of gastric H-K-ATPase, omeprazole (0.1 mM), was added to the perfusate during the second period. Addition of vehicle to the perfusate changed neither the transepithelial voltage (VT, in millivolts) nor the JTCO2. In contrast, the addition of omeprazole (0.1 mM) to the perfusate abolished JTCO2 (from 14.5 +/- 5.6 to -0.1 +/- 3.1 pmol.mm-1.min-1) without significantly affecting VT. In additional experiments, in 16 tubules there was significant net K absorption (JK) of 5.0 +/- 1.0 pmol.mm-1.min-1 during the basal period, which exceeded the rate of K absorption that could be attributed to a paracellular voltage-mediated pathway (JKP = 1.0 +/- 0.4 pmol.mm-1.min-1, P less than 0.01). Administration of vehicle did not significantly affect either VT or JK. However, omeprazole abolished JK (from 5.1 +/- 1.0 to 0.1 +/- 2.5 pmol.mm-1.min-1) without affecting VT or JNa. The present results demonstrate that the OMCDi possesses an active, omeprazole-sensitive acidification and K-absorptive mechanism. These findings are consistent with the presence of H-K-ATPase activity in this nephron segment.

Exogenous 63Ni was incorporated into carbon monoxide dehydrogenase when Acetogenium kivui ATCC 33488 was cultivated in the presence of 63NiCl2. The capacity for nickel (63NiCl2) transport was greatest with cells harvested from the mid- to late exponential phases of growth. Nickel transport was linear during the transport assay period and displayed saturation kinetics. The apparent Km and Vmax for nickel transport by H2-cultivated cells approximated 2.3 microM Ni and 670 pmol of Ni transported per min per mg (dry weight) of cells, respectively. The nickel transport system was not appreciably affected by the other divalent cations that were tested, and transported nickel was not readily exchangeable with exogenous nickel. Nickel transport was stimulated by glucose or H2 and was decreased by various metabolic inhibitors; however, nickel uptake by glucose- and H2-cultivated cells displayed differential sensitivities to ATPase inhibitors.

When corneal microsomes were incubated with arachidonic acid in the presence of an NADPH-generating system, four polar metabolites (compounds A-D) were formed. Synthesis of these metabolites could be inhibited by carbon monoxide, SKF 525A, and anti-cytochrome c reductase antibodies. One of the metabolites, compound C, was found to inhibit partially purified Na+,K+-ATPase from the corneal epithelium in a dose-dependent manner with an ID50 of approximately 50 nM. After compound C was purified by TLC and HPLC, it was found to have a UV absorption spectrum with a maximum absorbance at 236 nm suggesting the presence of a conjugated diene. Mass spectrometric analysis using positive- and negative-ionization modes was carried out on derivatized compound C that had been synthesized from a mixture of specifically labeled ([5,6,8,9,11,12,14,15-2H8]arachidonic acid) and unlabeled arachidonic acid. Abundant fragment ions were consistent with compound C being a monooxygenated derivative of arachidonic acid with a hydroxyl substituent at carbon-12 of the icosanoid backbone; all deuterium atoms from [2H8]arachidonate were retained in the structure. Oxidative ozonolysis yielded products indicating double bonds between carbons at positions 10 and 11 and positions 14 and 15 of the 20-carbon chain. Compound C was, therefore, characterized as a 12-hydroxyicosatetraenoic acid. However, only 12(R) isomer was found to be an inhibitor of the Na+,K+-ATPase from the corneal epithelium, suggesting that the biologically active compound C was 12(R)-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-icosatetraenoic acid. Such an inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase synthesized in the cornea may have an important role in regulating ocular transparency and aqueous human secretion.

In cultured cells derived from isolated micromeres of sea urchin eggs, H+,K+-ATPase activity, which became detectable simultaneously with the initiation of spicule formation, was localized in the plasma membrane and the microsome fractions. Activities of marker enzymes for plasma membrane, 5'-nucleotidase, Na+,K+-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase, were found to be high in the plasma membrane fraction. Considerable activity of rotenone-insensitive NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, a marker enzyme for microsome, was detectable in the microsome fraction. These fractions exhibited barely any appreciable activity of markers for the other organellae. H+,K+-ATPase in plasma membrane probably mediates H+ release from the cells, in which H+ is produced in overall reaction to form CaCO3, the main component of spicules, from Ca2+, CO2 and H2O. Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase activity was also found in these two fractions before and after the initiation of spicule formation. After initiation, the skeletal vacuole fraction was obtained from subcellular structures containing spicules. Considerable activity of Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase was observed in this fraction, which exhibited a weak activity of UDP-galactose: N-acetylglucosamine galactosyltransferase, a marker enzyme for Golgi body. Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase in the skeletal vacuole membrane probably mediates HCO3- transport into the vacuoles to supply HCO3- for spicule formation.

Transport properties of the osmotically fragile strain VY1160 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were compared with those of the parent S288c strain. Mediated diffusion of 6-deoxy-D-glucose was practically unaffected; membrane-potential-dependent transport of D-glucosamine was very much depressed in the fragile strain. The H+-driven transport of L-lysine and L-proline, as well as that of the hitherto uninvestigated D-glucose-6-phosphate, were also very depressed. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose transport displayed slightly different kinetic parameters. Primary H+ extrusion by the plasma membrane H-ATPase was not diminished although the ATP-splitting activity was depressed by about 50%. The overall proton-motive force (pmf) of the fragile mutant at pH 5.5 was only 20 mV while in the parent strain it was 108 mV. In parallel with this, spontaneous acidification of the external medium (a CO2-associated event) was only about 2% of that in the parent strain. The defect in this, together with the inability to stimulate transport protein synthesis by glucose, may account for the generally poorer transport performance of the fragile mutant.

Exposure to CO2 acidifies the cytosol of mitochondria-rich cells in turtle bladder epithelium. The result of the decrease in pH in these, the acid-secreting cells of the epithelium, is a transient increase in cell calcium, which causes exocytosis of vesicles containing proton-translocating ATPase. Because mitochondria-rich cells have rapid luminal membrane turnover, we were able to identify single mitochondria-rich cells by their endocytosis of rhodamine-tagged albumin. Using fluorescence emission of 5,6-carboxyfluorescein at two excitation wavelengths, we measured cell pH in these identified mitochondria-rich cells and found that although the cell pH fell, it recovered within 5 min despite continuous exposure to CO2. This pH recovery also occurred at the same rate in Na+-free media. However, pH recovery did not occur when luminal pH was 5.5, a condition under which the H+-pump does not function, suggesting that recovery of cell pH is due to the luminally located H+ ATPase. Chelation of extracellular calcium by EGTA prevented the CO2-induced rise in cell calcium measured with the intracellular fluorescent dyes Quin 2 or Fura 2 and also prevented recovery of cell pH. When the change in cell calcium was buffered by loading the cells with high concentrations of Quin 2, the CO2-induced decrease in pH did not return back to basal levels. We had found previously that buffering intracellular calcium transients prevented CO2-stimulated exocytosis. Further, we show here that the increased H+ current in voltage-clamped turtle bladders, which is directly proportional to the number of H+-pump-containing vesicles that fuse with the luminal membrane, was significantly reduced in calcium-depleted bladders. These results suggest that pH regulation in these acid-secreting cells occurs by calcium-dependent exocytosis of vesicles containing proton pumps, whose subsequent turnover restores the cell pH to its initial levels.

The renal medullary collecting duct (MCD) secretes protons into its lumen and HCO3 into its basolateral space. Basolateral HCO3 transport is thought to occur via Cl/HCO3 exchange. To further characterize this Cl/HCO3 exchange process, intracellular pH (pHi) regulation was monitored in freshly prepared rabbit outer MCD cells. Cells were separated by protease digestion and purified by Ficoll gradient centrifugation. pHi was estimated fluorometrically using the entrapped intracytoplasmic pH indicator, 6-carboxyfluorescein. Cells were preincubated in bicarbonate-containing solutions and then abruptly diluted into bicarbonate-free media. The MCD cell pHi response to abrupt removal of CO2/HCO3 included an initial alkalinization due to rapid CO2 efflux, followed by an acidification due to HCO3 efflux and a gradual recovery to the resting pHi of 7.24 +/- 0.06 partly due to the action of a plasma membrane H+-ATPase. The initial alkalinization required a CO2/HCO3 gradient and did not occur in the presence of acetazolamide. The acidification phase required intracellular HCO3 and extracellular Cl, which was consistent with a Cl/HCO3 exchange. MCD HCO3 efflux exhibited saturable kinetics for extracellular Cl, with a Michaelis constant (Km) of 29.9 +/- 7.7 mM. HCO3 efflux also exhibited preference for halides over NO3, SCN, and gluconate, and striking sensitivity to disulfonic stilbene and acetazolamide inhibition, with an apparent K1 of 5 X 10(-7) M for DIDS. The final pHi recovery required intracellular ATP, which indicated that Cl/HCO3 and H+-ATPase activities are present in the same cells in these suspensions. The results provide direct evidence for MCD Cl/HCO3 exchange and describe some of the properties of this transport process.
