Stimulation of the gastric parietal cell requires massive membrane transformations as H(+)-pumps from the domain of cytoplasmic tubulovesicles are recruited into the apical plasma membrane domain. The recycling of membrane pools, through fusion and fission processes that accompany stimulation and inhibition of HCl secretion, also involves highly selective events of protein incorporation and segregation. This manuscript describes several proteins that have been identified with the apical plasma membrane from maximally stimulated parietal cells, and broadly characterizes them either as permanent resident proteins of the apical membrane, or transient proteins that move into and out of the apical membrane as the cell progresses through the secretory cycle. A typical example of transient association with the apical membrane concerns the pump proteins, including the 94 kDa catalytic alpha-subunit of the H+K(+)-ATPase and its newly discovered beta-subunit glycoprotein, which move between tubulovesicles. Proteins that remain associated with the apical plasma membrane during rest and secretion include actin, and an 80-kDa phosphoprotein, which has been variously called 80 K, ezrin, p81 and cytovillin, and whose phosphorylation is increased by the histamine/cAMP pathway of parietal cell stimulation. An example of a cytosolic protein that becomes associated with the apical plasma membrane after stimulation is a 120-kDa protein, which appears to have protein kinase activity. Note that the identification, localization and characterization of the K+ and Cl- transport proteins, which participate in net HCl secretion, are of immediate importance.

Engagement of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) leads to activation of multiple tyrosine kinases and rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular protein substrates. A number of these substrates have been identified and they include TCR subunits, phospholipase C-gamma 1, p95vav, and ezrin. In a recent study we have demonstrated that VCP (valosin-containing protein) becomes tyrosine phosphorylated upon TCR cross-linking. Analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of this protein indicates that it is a member of a family of oligomeric proteins containing duplicated domains with predicted ATPase activity. In the current study we determine the site of tyrosine phosphorylation in VCP, demonstrate that murine VCP indeed is an oligomeric ATPase, and show that the tyrosine phosphorylation of the protein has no effect on VCP ATPase activity. Recent evidence suggests that VCP associates with clathrin. A possible role of tyrosine phosphorylation in regulating this protein-protein interaction is discussed.

Primary cultures of rabbit gastric parietal cells respond to various gastric secretagogues as evidenced by morphological alterations and [14C]aminopyrine uptake. The availability of cultures of > 95% purity has allowed us to utilize immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy to observe the direct effect of histamine upon the distribution of membrane and cytoskeletal proteins in parietal cells. Cells cultured for 3 days were incubated for 45 min with or without 10(-4) M histamine, washed, and fixed with 3% paraformaldehyde. Immunofluorescence was performed with antibodies against H+/K(+)-ATPase, Na+/K(+)-ATPase, ezrin, and beta-tubulin, as well as with Bodipy-phallacidin. Anti-H+/K(+)-ATPase antibody stained resting cells in a vesicular cytoplasmic pattern. Stimulation with histamine resulted in the development of a well-defined linear pattern, outlining the expanded secretory canaliculi. The Na+/K(+)-ATPase was restricted to predominantly the lateral surface in both the resting and stimulated cells, suggesting that the cultured parietal cells retain membrane polarity. Ezrin was visualized outlining the intracellular canaliculi in the resting state, and surrounding the large secretory canaliculi in the stimulated cell. Phallacidin labeling of F-actin localized to an area tightly surrounding the intracellular canaliculi in the resting cell, and was comparable with the staining observed with ezrin. In the stimulated cells this fluorescence pattern became more diffuse and surrounded the expanded secretory surface. In both the resting and stimulated cells, antibodies to beta-tubulin revealed a microtubular pattern located predominantly in the basal portion of the cell. These results demonstrate that the cells are capable of translocating the H+/K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles to a secretory surface, and that they exhibit organization and maintenance of basolateral and canalicular membrane domains. Furthermore, these studies demonstrate the directed movement of membrane and cytoskeletal proteins upon stimulation of the cultured parietal cells.

ME-3407 is a newly developed antiulcer drug that markedly promoted the healing of acetic acid-induced chronic ulcers in rats presumably due to potent inhibition of acid secretion. ME-3407 and its metabolites, the sulfoxide of which was preserved, produced dosedependent inhibition of aminopyrine accumulation by rabbit gastric glands stimulated by any agonist, suggesting that the site of their action was downstream from the production of second messengers. Although one of the metabolites, EF-4025, showed some inhibitory effects on functional activities of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase, ME-3407 itself was not a proton pump inhibitor. ME-3407, but not omeprazole, inhibited the stimulation-associated redistribution of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase from microsomes into the apical membranes in addition to delocalizing ezrin, a putative F-actin-membrane linker, from apical plasma membrane. ME-3407 and EF-4025 inhibited myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) and protein kinase A activities. Because another MLCK inhibitor, wortmannin, showed the same properties as ME-3407, i.e., inhibition of aminopyrine accumulation, inhibition of stimulation-associated redistribution of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase, and abnormal distribution of ezrin, we hypothesize that MLCK is one of the potential targets for the drug. We conclude that ME-3407 is a promising drug for treating peptic ulcers, as well as a useful tool for studying mechanisms of parietal cell activation, especially related to the recruitment and recycling of the proton pump.

Ezrin, a membrane-cytoskeleton linker protein, is involved in the recruitment of H+/K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles to the canalicular membrane during acid secretion in the parietal cell. Ezrin exists as monomers and head-to-tail dimers in vivo, and oligomerization is presumably important for activation. In this study, we mapped regions of ezrin-ezrin interaction using the yeast two-hybrid assay. We observed that the N-terminal 283 amino acids are sufficient for interaction with the carboxyl terminal 140 amino acids. The region 333.446 inhibits this association. However, the inclusion of amino acids 283-310 appears to release the inhibition. These specific interactions may play a critical role in the formation of dimerization-competent ezrin molecules.

Acid secretion in gastric parietal cells is preceded by a dramatic increase in surface area of the apical membrane compartment, due to fusion of the H+/K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles. The resulting canaliculi must be fixed for a period of minutes by cytoskeletal elements to sustain acid secretion. Using immunofluorescence microscopy, the cytoskeletal linker molecule, ezrin, localizes to the apical canalicular membrane of parietal cells. Antibodies against ezrin precipitate H+/K(+)-ATPase and beta-actin. In addition to its apical localization, ezrin is found to be colocalized at the basolateral compartment with synapse-associated protein (SAP) 97. Immunoprecipitation confirms a direct binding of SAP 97 and ezrin. We conclude that ezrin is fixed to the basolateral compartment by SAP 97. Upon stimulation of acid secretion, ezrin moves to the apical surface where it might stabilize the canalicular microvilli by connecting to beta-actin and H+/K(+)-ATPase, thereby sustaining acid secretion.

Cultured rabbit parietal cells were used to evaluate morphological responses to activators and inhibitors of HCl secretion. Immunofluorescence was used to localize the proton pump protein, H, K-ATPase, and the apical membrane-cytoskeletal linker protein, ezrin; fluorescent-labeled phalloidin was used as a marker of F-actin. Treatment of healthy control parietal cells with secretagogues resulted in exaggerated swelling of apical membrane vacuoles, presumably with the accumulation of HCl and water. Thus stimulation-associated swelling of apical vacuoles was blocked by inhibitors that work at various steps in the secretion-activation cascade. When secretion was blocked by agents that prevent the translocation of H,K-ATPase-rich tubulovesicles to apical membrane vacuoles (such as H2-receptor antagonists and protein kinase A inhibitors), the general resting morphology was maintained. ME-3407 (a functional analogue of wortmannin) was unique in preventing H, K-ATPase redistribution and effecting the delocalization of ezrin from apical membrane vacuoles. When secretion was blocked by agents that inhibit the H+ pump or induce H+ backflux, the translocation of H,K-ATPase to apical membrane vacuoles occurred but the large vacuolar swelling associated with HCl and H2O accumulation was greatly diminished. These data support the membrane recycling/recruitment hypothesis of HCl secretion in which H, K-ATPase-rich tubulovesicles are recruited from a cytoplasmic domain to the apical surface, and they are inconsistent with models proposing that the tubulovesicles, regardless of shape, are contiguous with the apical plasma membrane. These studies also demonstrate the utility of the parietal cell culture model in distinguishing a general site of action for various inhibitors and antisecretory agents.

Mammalian taste buds consist of 50-150 pear-or spindle-shaped taste receptor cells which contain, at their apical cell surface, a bundle of microvillar projections. The microvilli probably serve to increase the receptive membrane surface of the chemosensory receptor cells. The molecular basis controlling the ultrastructure of taste receptor microvilli is present unknown. In the present study we analysed, by immunostaining at the light and electron microscopic levels and by immunoblotting, components of the cytoskeleton of these microvilli. We show here that taste cell microvilli contain the major cytoskeletal proteins of intestinal microvilli, actin, fimbrin and villin. Another actin-binding, peripheral membrane protein of intestinal microvilli, ezrin, was also localised to taste cell microvilli, where ezrin might play a role, for example, in placement of specific membrane proteins to the microvillus membrane. In search of further linkage proteins, we found ankyrin localised along the basolateral cell surface of taste receptor cells, where ankyrin might be involved in the immobilisation of the Na+, K+-ATPase or other ion-translocating proteins of taste cells to the membrane cytoskeleton.

Gastric gland stimulation triggers H(+),K(+)-ATPase translocation from cytoplasmic tubulovesicles to apical plasma membrane in parietal cells, resulting in HCl secretion. We studied the mechanisms involved in tubulovesicle translocation with a permeabilized gland system. Streptolysin O (SLO)-treated glands were permeabilized such that exogenous fluorescently labeled actin incorporated into cytoskeleton in a pattern mimicking endogenous F-actin. As shown by accumulation of the weak base aminopyrine (AP), SLO-permeabilized glands are stimulated to secrete acid by addition of cAMP and ATP and inhibited by proton pump inhibitors. Direct visualization with the fluorescent pH probe Lysosensor showed acid accumulation in glandular lumen and parietal cell canaliculi. ME-3407, an antiulcer drug with inhibitory action implicated to involve ezrin, inhibited AP uptake in and effectively released ezrin from intact and SLO-permeabilized glands. In contrast, wortmannin, an effective secretion inhibitor in intact glands, had minimal effects on ezrin or AP accumulation in SLO-permeabilized glands. The finding that SNARE protein syntaxin 3 is associated with H(+),K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles suggested that it is involved in membrane fusion. Addition of recombinant syntaxin 3, but not syntaxin 5 or heat-denatured syntaxin 3, dose-dependently inhibited acid secretion. Our studies are consistent with a membrane recycling hypothesis that activation of protein kinase cascades leads to SNARE-mediated fusion of H(+),K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles to apical plasma membrane.

The distribution of transmembrane proteins is considered to be crucial for their activities because these proteins mediate the information coming from outside of cells. A small GTPase Rho participates in many cellular functions through its downstream effectors. In this study, we examined the effects of RhoA on the distribution of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, one of the transmembrane proteins. In polarized renal epithelium, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is known to be localized at the basolateral membrane. By microinjection of the constitutively active mutant of RhoA (RhoA(Val14)) into cultured renal epithelial cells, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was translocated to the spike-like protrusions over the apical surfaces. Microinjection of the constitutively active mutant of other Rho family GTPases, Rac1 or Cdcd42, did not induce the translocation. The translocation induced by RhoA(Val14) was inhibited by treatment with Y-27632, a Rho-kinase specific inhibitor, or by coinjection of the dominant negative mutant of Rho-kinase. These results indicate that Rho and Rho-kinase are involved in the regulation of the localization of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. We also found that Na(+),K(+)-ATPase seemed to be colocalized with ERM proteins phosphorylated at T567 (ezrin), T564 (radixin), and T558 (moesin) in cells microinjected with RhoA(Val14).
