Loss-of-function mutations of the ClC-5 chloride channel lead to Dent's disease, a syndrome characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, and kidney stones. We show that ClC-5 is expressed in renal proximal tubule cells, which normally endocytose proteins passing the glomerular filter. Expression is highest below the brush border in a region densely packed with endocytotic vesicles, where ClC-5 colocalizes with the H+-ATPase and with internalized proteins early after uptake. In intercalated cells of the collecting duct it again localizes to apical intracellular vesicles and colocalizes with the proton pump in alpha-intercalated cells. In transfected cells, ClC-5 colocalizes with endocytosed alpha2-macroglobulin. Cotransfection with a GTPase-deficient rab5 mutant leads to enlarged early endosomes that stain for ClC-5. We suggest that ClC-5 may be essential for proximal tubular endocytosis by providing an electrical shunt necessary for the efficient acidification of vesicles in the endocytotic pathway, explaining the proteinuria observed in Dent's disease.

To determine the immunolocalization of ClC-5 in the mouse kidney, we developed a ClC-5-specific rat monoclonal antibody. Immunoblotting demonstrated an 85-kDa band of ClC-5 in the kidney and ClC-5 transfected cells. Immunocytochemistry revealed significant labeling of ClC-5 in brush-border membrane and subapical intracellular vesicles of the proximal tubule. In addition, apical and cytoplasmic staining was observed in the type A intercalated cells in the cortical collecting duct. In contrast, the staining was minimal in the outer and inner medullary collecting ducts and the thick ascending limb. Western blotting of vesicles immunoisolated by the ClC-5 antibody showed the presence of H+-ATPase, strongly indicating that these two proteins were present in the same membranes. Double labeling with antibodies against ClC-5 and H+-ATPase and analysis by confocal images showed that ClC-5 and H+-ATPase colocalized in these ClC-5-positive cells. These findings suggest that ClC-5 might be involved in the endocytosis and/or the H+ secretion in the proximal tubule cells and the cortical collecting duct type A intercalated cells in mouse kidney.

ClC-5 is the Cl- channel that is mutated in Dent's disease, an X-chromosome-linked disease characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, and kidney stones. It is predominantly expressed in endocytically active renal proximal cells. We investigated whether this Cl- channel could also be expressed in intestinal tissues that have endocytotic machinery. ClC-5 mRNA was detected in the rat duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and colon. Western blot analyses revealed the presence of the 83-kDa ClC-5 protein in these tissues. Indirect immunofluorescence studies showed that ClC-5 was mainly concentrated in the cytoplasm above the nuclei of enterocytes and colon cells. ClC-5 partially colocalized with the transcytosed polymeric immunoglobulin receptor but was not detectable together with the brush-border-anchored sucrase isomaltase. A subfractionation of vesicles obtained by differential centrifugation showed that ClC-5 is associated with the vacuolar 70-kDa H+-ATPase and the small GTPases rab4 and rab5a, two markers of early endosomes. Thus these results indicate that ClC-5 is present in the small intestine and colon of rats and suggest that it plays a role in the endocytotic pathways of intestinal cells.

By using Western blot and RT-PCR analyses, the expression of ClC-5, a member of the ClC family of voltage-gated chloride channels, and its mRNA was detected in OK cells. The effect of chloride channel inhibitors on receptor-mediated endocytosis of albumin was examined in OK cells and compared to that of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase inhibitors. Accumulation of fluorescein-isothiocyanate (FITC)-albumin, a receptor-mediated endocytosis marker, was inhibited by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB), a chloride channel inhibitor, in a concentration-dependent fashion. In contrast, uptake of FITC-inulin, a fluid-phase endocytosis marker, was not affected by NPPB. Other chloride channel inhibitors, 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2-2'-disulfonic acid and diphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid, also inhibited FITC-albumin uptake. NPPB, as well as a vacuolar H(+)-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A(1), caused a decrease in the affinity and in the maximal velocity of FITC-albumin uptake. These results suggest that chloride channel, most likely ClC-5, plays an important role in the receptor-mediated endocytosis of albumin in OK cells.

Epithelial cells of the epididymis and vas deferens establish an optimum luminal environment in which spermatozoa mature and are stored. This is achieved by active transepithelial transport of various ions including Cl(-) and H(+). We investigated the localization of three closely related members of the ClC family, ClC-3, ClC-4, and ClC-5, in the epididymis and vas deferens. RT-PCR using mRNA isolated by laser capture microdissection (LCM)-detected ClC-3 and ClC-5 transcripts but did not detect any ClC-4-specific transcript. Western blot and immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that ClC-3 and ClC-5 proteins are present in all regions of the epididymis and in the vas deferens. ClC-5 is expressed exclusively in H(+)-ATPase-rich cells (narrow and clear cells). Confocal microscopy showed that ClC-5 partially colocalizes with the H(+)-ATPase in the subapical pole of clear cells. ClC-3 is strongly expressed in the apical membrane of principal cells of the caput epididymidis and the vas deferens and is less abundant in principal cells of the body and cauda epididymidis. These findings are consistent with a potential role for ClC-3 in transepithelial chloride transport by principal cells and for ClC-5 in the acidification of H(+)-ATPase-containing vesicles in narrow and clear cells. ClC-5 might facilitate endosome trafficking in the epididymis, as has been proposed in the kidney.

Mutations in the gene CLCN5 encoding the vesicular chloride channel ClC-5 lead to Dent's disease, an X-linked renal disorder. Dent's disease is characterised by proteinuria, hyperphosphaturia and hypercalciuria, which eventually lead to kidney stones and nephrocalcinosis. As it was unclear how mutations in a chloride channel might cause these symptoms, we and others have generated genetic mouse models to elucidate the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. We review results obtained from these three mouse models and present new data on endosomal acidification and vitamin D metabolism in ClC-5 knock-out (KO) mice. ClC-5 is expressed in apical endosomes of proximal tubular cells where it co-localizes with endocytosed proteins and the proton ATPase. ClC-5 may provide an electric shunt for the efficient operation of the electrogenic H(+)-ATPase. We confirmed this hypothesis by showing that endosomes from CLCN5 KO mice are acidified at a significantly lower rate than wild-type endosomes. This probably results in the drastic impairment of endocytosis observed in ClC-5 KO mice. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is filtered into the lumen of the nephron, where it is endocytosed and degraded by proximal tubular cells. The defective endocytosis in ClC-5 KO mice entails an increased luminal concentration of PTH, subsequent stimulation of apical PTH receptors which causes an increased endocytosis of the phosphate transporter NaPi and phosphaturia. We now show that it also results in up-regulation of proximal tubular alpha-hydroxylase that generates the active form of vitamin D from its precursor. We discuss how the primary defect in endocytosis leads via secondary changes in calciotropic hormones to the tertiary symptoms hyperphosphaturia, hypercalciuria and kidney stones.

Dent's disease, a X-linked hypercalciuric nephrolithiasis, is caused by mutations of the CLCN5 gene. The disease is characterised by low molecular weight proteinuria with variable presence of hypercalciuria, hyperphosphaturia, nephrocalcinosis, and kidney stones. CLCN5 encodes a chloride channel belonging to the voltage-gated chloride channel family, which is predominantly expressed in the endosomes of proximal tubular cells. By shunting the current of electrogenic H+-ATPase, ClC-5 is crucial for efficient acidification of renal endosomes. As shown in knock-out mouse models, the ClC-5 loss of function causes severe impairment of receptor-mediated endocytosis, as well as the endocytotic retrieval of plasma membrane proteins including megalin. In a minority of patients with classical Dent's disease, the analysis of CLCN5 coding sequences failed to identify causative mutations. It is conceivable that mutations in the 5' upstream regulatory regions could impair the correct processing and translation of CLCN5. The complexity of its promoter region seems to support this hypothesis. Molecular diagnosis of Dent's disease is now available; since the risk of developing renal insufficiency in adult life is elevated for this type of nephrolithiasis, the correct diagnosis could potentially modify the natural history of the disease by preventing the evolution towards uraemia.

Diabetic kidney disease is initially associated with hypertension and increased urinary albumin excretion. The hypertension is mediated by enhanced volume expansion due to enhanced salt and water retention by the kidney. The increased urinary albumin is not only due to increased glomerular leak, but also to a decrease in albumin reabsorption by the proximal tubule. The precise molecular mechanisms underlying these two phenomena and whether there is any link between the increase in Na(+) retention and proteinuria remain unresolved. There is significant evidence to suggest that increased Na(+) retention by the proximal tubule Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) can play a role in some forms of hypertension. Increased NHE3 activity in models of diabetes mellitus may explain, in part, the enhanced salt retention observed in patients with diabetic kidney disease. The NHE3 also plays a role in receptor-mediated albumin uptake in the proximal tubule. The uptake of albumin requires the assembly of a macromolecular complex that is thought to include the megalin/cubulin receptor, NHE3, the vacuolar type H(+)-ATPase (v-H(+)-ATPase), the Cl(-) channel ClC-5 and interactions with the actin cytoskeleton. The NHE3 seems to exist in two functionally distinct membrane domains, one involved with Na(+) reabsorption and the other involved in albumin uptake. The present review focuses on the evidence derived from in vivo studies, as well as complementary studies in cell culture models, for a dual role of NHE3 in both Na(+) retention and albumin uptake. We suggest a possible mechanism by which disruption of the proximal tubule albumin uptake mechanism in diabetes mellitus may lead to both increased Na(+) retention and proteinuria.

ClC-5 is a chloride (Cl(-)) channel expressed in renal tubules and is critical for normal tubular function. Loss of function nonsense or missense mutations in ClC-5 are associated with Dent's disease, a condition in which patients present with low molecular weight (LMW) proteinuria (including albuminuria), hypercalciuria and nephrolithiasis. Several key studies in ClC-5 knockout mice have shown that the proteinuria results from defective tubular reabsorption of proteins. ClC-5 is typically regarded as an intracellular Cl(-) channel and thus the defect in this receptor-mediated uptake pathway was initially attributed to the failure of the early endosomes to acidify correctly. ClC-5 was postulated to play a key role in transporting the Cl(-) ions required to compensate for the movement of H(+) during endosomal acidification. However, more recent studies suggest additional roles for ClC-5 in the endocytosis of albumin. ClC-5 is now known to be expressed at low levels at the cell surface and appears to be a key component in the assembly of the macromolecular complex involved in protein endocytosis. Furthermore, mutations in ClC-5 affect the trafficking of v-H(+)-ATPase and result in decreased expression of the albumin receptor megalin/cubulin. Thus, the expression of ClC-5 at the cell surface as well as its presence in endosomes appears to be essential for normal protein uptake by the renal proximal tubule.

Several members of the CLC family of Cl- channels and transporters are expressed in vesicles of the endocytotic-lysosomal pathway, all of which are acidified by V-type proton pumps. These CLC proteins are thought to facilitate vesicular acidification by neutralizing the electric current of the H+-ATPase. Indeed, the disruption of ClC-5 impaired the acidification of endosomes, and the knock-out (KO) of ClC-3 that of endosomes and synaptic vesicles. KO mice are available for all vesicular CLCs (ClC-3 to ClC-7), and ClC-5 and ClC-7, as well as its beta-subunit Ostm1, are mutated in human disease. The associated mouse and human pathologies, ranging from impaired endocytosis and nephrolithiasis (ClC-5) to neurodegeneration (ClC-3), lysosomal storage disease (ClC-6, ClC-7/Ostm1) and osteopetrosis (ClC-7/Ostm1), were crucial in identifying the physiological roles of vesicular CLCs. Whereas the intracellular localization of ClC-6 and ClC-7/Ostm1 precluded biophysical studies, the partial expression of ClC-4 and -5 at the cell surface allowed the detection of strongly outwardly rectifying currents that depended on anions and pH. Surprisingly, ClC-4 and ClC-5 (and probably ClC-3) do not function as Cl- channels, but rather as electrogenic Cl--H+ exchangers. This hints at an important role for luminal chloride in the endosomal-lysosomal system.
