Cl– conductance in cultured embryonic chick cardiac myocytes was characterized using whole-cell patch clamp techniques. Following elimination of cation currents in Na+and K+-free internal and external solutions, the basal whole-cell current was predominantly a Cl– current. Cl–-sensitive current (I

The whole-cell current in the absence or presence of 10 m cAMP was time independent, displayed outward rectification with the pipette [Cl–] < 40 mm, and was not saturated with a physiological Cl– gradient. The Cl– current was also activated by 1 m forskolin and inhibited by 0.3 mm anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (9-AC). Forskolin was less effective than cAMP (internal dialysis) in activating the Cl– current. The cAMP- or forskolin-activated and basal Cl– current were reasonably fit by the Goldman-Hodgkin-Katz equation. The calculated P

It is concluded that Cl– enters the cell via a primary (rheogenic) transport mechanism. At the serosal membrane the Na+ gradient most likely energizes H+ export and regulates mucosal Cl– accumulation perhaps by influencing cell pH or HCO

We report that Drosophila retinal photoreceptors express inwardly rectifying chloride channels that seem to be orthologous to mammalian ClC-2 inward
rectifier channels. We measured inwardly rectifying Cl− currents in photoreceptor plasma membranes: Hyperpolarization under whole-cell tight-seal voltage clamp induced inward Cl− currents; and hyperpolarization of voltage-clamped inside-out patches excised from plasma membrane induced Cl− currents that have a unitary channel conductance of ∼3.7 pS. The channel was inhibited by 1 mM Zn2+ and by 1 mM 9-anthracene, but was insensitive to DIDS. Its anion permeability sequence is Cl− = SCN−> Br−>> I−, characteristic of ClC-2 channels. Exogenous polyunsaturated fatty acid, linolenic acid, enhanced or activated the inward
rectifier Cl− currents in both whole-cell and excised patch-clamp recordings. Using RT-PCR, we found expression in Drosophila retina of a ClC-2 gene orthologous to mammalian ClC-2 channels. Antibodies to rat ClC-2 channels labeled Drosophila photoreceptor plasma membranes and synaptic regions. Our results provide evidence that the inward rectification in Drosophila retinal photoreceptors is mediated by ClC-2-like channels in the non-transducing (extra-rhabdomeral) plasma membrane, and
that this inward rectification can be modulated by polyunsaturated fatty acid.

Leech blood apparently contains considerably less chloride than generally used in physiological experi ments. Instead of 85–130 mM Cl– used in experimental salines, leech blood contains around 40 mM Cl– and up to 45 mM organic anions, in particular malate. We have reinvestigated the distribution of Cl– across the cell membrane of identified glial cells and neurones in the central nervous system of the leech Hirudo medicinalis L., using double-barrelled Cl–- and pH-selective micro electrodes, in a conventional leech saline, and in a saline with a low Cl– concentration (40 mM), containing 40 mM malate. The interference of anions other than Cl–to the response of the ion-selective microelectrodes was estimated in Cl–-free salines (Cl– replaced by malate and/or gluconate). The results show that the absolute intracellu lar Cl– activities (aCli) in glial cells and neurones, but not the electrochemical gradients of Cl– across the glial and the neuronal cell membranes, are altered in the low Cl–, malate-based saline. In Retzius neurones, aCli is lower than expected from electrochemical equilibrium, while in pressure neurones and in neuropil glial cells, aCli is distributed close to its equilibrium in both salines, re spectively. The steady-state intracellular pH values in the glial cells and Retzius neurones are little affected (0.1 pH units) in the low Cl–, malate-based saline. 相似文献

Summary Hyperpolarization of voltage-clampedParamecium tetraurelia in K+ solutions elicits a complex of Ca2+ and K+ currents. The tail current that accompanies a return to holding potential (–40 mV) contains two K+ components. The tail current elicited by a step to –110 mV of 50-msec duration contains fast-decaying (3.5 msec) and slow-decaying (20 msec) components. The reversal potential of both components shifts by 55–57 mV/10-fold change in external [K+], suggesting that they represent pure K+ currents. The dependence of the relative amplitudes of the two tail currents on duration of hyperpolarization suggests that the slow K+ current activates slowly and is sustained, whereas the fast current activates rapidly during hyperpolarization and then rapidly inactivates. Iontophoretic injection of a Ca2+ chelator, EGTA, specifically reduces slow tail-current amplitude without affecting the fast tail component. Both K+ currents are inhibited by extracellular TEA+ in a concentration-dependent, noncooperative manner, whereas the fast K+ current alone is inhibited by 0.7mm quinidine. 相似文献

The two-microelectrode voltage clamp technique was used to examine the kinetics and substrate specificity of the cloned renal Na+/myo-inositol cotransporter (SMIT) expressed in Xenopus oocytes.

The substrate selectivity series was myo-inositol, scyllo-inositol > l-fucose > l-xylose > l-glucose, d-glucose, -methyl-d-glucopyranoside > d-galactose, d-fucose, 3-O-methyl-d-glucose, 2-deoxy-d-glucose > d-xylose. For comparison, oocytes were injected with cRNA for the rabbit intestinal Na+/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) and sugar-induced steady-state currents (at V
m
=–150 mV) were measured. For oocytes expressing SGLT1, the sugar selectivity was: d-glucose, -methyl-d-glucopyranoside, d-galactose, d-fucose, 3-O-methyl-d-glucose > d-xylose, l-xylose, 2-deoxy-d-glucose > myo-inositol, l-glucose, l-fucose. The ability of SMIT to transport glucose and SGLT1 to transport myo-inositol was independently confirmed by monitoring the Na+-dependent uptake of 3H-d-glucose and 3H-myo-inositol, respectively. In common with SGLT1, SMIT gave a relaxation current in the presence of 100 mm Na+ that was abolished by phlorizin (0.5 mm). This transient current decayed with a voltage-sensitive time constant between 10 and 14 msec. The presteady-state current is apparently due to the reorientation of the cotransporter protein in the membrane in response to a change in V

. The kinetics of SMIT is accounted for by an ordered six-state nonrapid equilibrium model.

Defolliculated oocytes of Xenopus laevis responded to removal of external divalent cations with large depolarizations and, when voltage clamped, with huge currents. Single channel analysis revealed a Cl– channel with a slope conductance of about 90 pS at positive membrane potentials with at least four substates. Single channel amplitudes and mean channel currents had a reversal potential of approximately –15 mV as predicted by the Nernst equation for a channel perfectly selective for Cl–. Readdition of Ca2+ immediately inactivated the channel and restored the former membrane potential or clamp current. The inward currents were mediated by a Ca2+ inactivated Cl– channel (CaIC). The inhibitory potency of Ca2+ was a function of the external Ca2+ concentration with a half maximal blocker concentration of about 20 m.These channels were inhibited by the Cl– channel blockers flufenamic acid, niflumic acid and diphenylamine-2-carboxylate (DPC). In contrast, 4,4-acetamido-4-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2-disulfonicacid (SITS), another Cl– channel blocker, led to activation of this Cl– channel. Like other Cl– channels, the CaIC was activated by cytosolic cAMP. Extracellular ATP inhibited the channel while ADP was without any effect. Injection of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C activating phorbol ester, stimulated the Cl– current. Cytochalasin D, an actin filament disrupting compound, reversibly decreased the clamp current demonstrating an influence of the cytoskeleton.The results indicate that removal of divalent cations activates Cl– channels in Xenopus oocytes which share several features with Cl– channels of the CLC family. The former so-called leak current of oocytes under divalent cation-free conditions is nothing else than an activation of Cl– channels.The microelectrode measurements are part of the PhD thesis of K. Liebold; the patch clamp contributions are part of the PhD thesis of F.W. Reifarth.

Summary The properties of an anion-selective channel observed in basolateral membranes of microdissected, collagenase-treated, cortical thick ascending limbs of Henle's loop from mouse kidney were investigated using patch-clamp single-channel recording techniques. In basal conditions, single Cl– currents were detected in 8% of cell-attached and excised, inside-out, membrane patches whereas they were observed in 24% of cell-attached and 67% of inside-out membrane patches when tubular fragments were preincubated with Forskolin (10–5
m) or 8-bromo-cAMP (10–4
m) and isobutylmethylxanthine (10–5
m). The channel exhibited a linear current-voltage relationship with conductances of about 40 pS in both cell-attached and cell-free membrane configurations. AP

F–; gluconate was not a permeant species. The open-state probability of the channel increased with membrane depolarization in cell-attached, i.e.,in situ membrane patches. In excised, inside-out, membrane patches, the channel was predominantly open with the open-state probability close to 0.8 over the whole range of potentials tested (–60 to +60 mV). The channel activity was not a function of internal calcium concentration between 10–9 and 10–3
m. We suggest that this Cl– channel, whose properties are distinct from those in other epithelia, could account for the well-documented conductance which mediates Cl– exit in the basolateral step of NaCl absorption in thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. 相似文献

The relative importance of endogenous abscisic acid (ABA), as well as Na+ and Cl– in NaCl-induced responses related to growth in roots of rice seedlings were investigated. The increase in ammonium, proline and H2O2 levels, and cell wall peroxidase (POD) activity has been shown to be related to NaCl-inhibited root growth of rice seedlings. Increasing concentrations of NaCl from 50 to 150 mM progressively decreased root growth and increased both Na+ and Cl–. Treatment with NaCl in the presence of 4,4-diisothiocyano-2,2-disulfonic acid (DIDS, a nonpermeating amino-reactive disulfonic acid known to inhibit the uptake of Cl–) had less Cl– level in roots than that in the absence of DIDS, but did not affect the levels of Na+, and responses related to growth in roots. Treatment with 50 mM Na-gluconate (the anion of which is not permeable to membrane) had similar Na+ level in roots as that with 100 mM NaCl. It was found that treatment with 50 mM Na-gluconate effected growth reduction and growth-related responses in roots in the same way as 100 mM NaCl. All these results suggest that Cl– is not required for NaCl-induced responses in root of rice seedlings. Endogenous ABA level showed no increase in roots of rice seedlings exposed to 150 mM NaCl. It is unlikely that ABA is associated with NaCl-inhibited root growth of rice seedlings. 相似文献

Summary In order to demonstrate the presence of a Ca2+-activated Cl–-channel in theNitellopsis plasmalemma, tonoplast-free cells were prepared and their intracellular Ca2+ concentration was modified by internal perfusion. An increase in the Ca2+ concentration caused a large Cl– efflux with a concomitant depolarization of the membrane potential. These changes were for the most part reversible. The critical Ca2+ concentration was about 4.0 m. Neither the Cl– efflux nor the membrane depolarization showed a time-dependent inactivation. A Cl–-channel blocker, A-9-C (9-anthracenecarboxylic acid) reduced both the Cl– efflux and the magnitude of the membrane potential depolarization. A small increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which is caused by membrane excitation of tonoplast-free cells is not sufficient to activate this Ca2+-dependent Cl–-channel. 相似文献

Summary Forskolin (i.e, cAMP)-modulation of ion transport pathways in filter-grown monolayers of the Cl–-secreting subclone (19A) of the human colon carcinoma cell line HT29 was studied by combined Ussing chamber and microimpalement experiments.Changes in electrophysiological parameters provoked by serosal addition of 10–5
m forskolin included: (i) a sustained increase in the transepithelial potential difference (3.9±0.4 mV). (ii) a transient decrease in transepithelial resistance with 26±3 · cm2 from a mean value of 138±13 · cm2 before forskolin addition, (iii) a depolarization of the cell membrane potential by 24±1 mV from a resting value of –50±1 mV and (iv) a decrease in the fractional resistance of the apical membrane from 0.80±0.02 to 0.22±0.01. Both, the changes in cell potential and the fractional resistance, persisted for at least 10 min and were dependent on the presence of Cl– in the medium. Subsequent addition of bumetanide (10–4
m), an inhibitor of Na/K/2Cl cotransport, reduced the transepithelial potential, induced a repolarization of the cell potential and provoked a small increase of the transepithelial resistance and fractional apical resistance. Serosal Ba2+ (1mm), a known inhibitor of basolateral K+ conductance, strongly reduced the electrical effects of forskolin. No evidence was found for a forskolin (cAMP)-induced modulation of basolateral K+ conductance.The results suggest that forskolin-induced Cl– secretion in the HT-29 cl.19A colonic cell line results mainly from a cAMP-provoked increase in the Cl– conductance of the apical membrane but does not affect K+ or Cl– conductance pathways at the basolateral pole of the cell. The sustained potential changes indicate that the capacity of the basolateral transport mechanism for Cl– and the basal Ba2+-sensitive K+ conductance are sufficiently large to maintain the Cl– efflux across the apical membrane. Furthermore, evidence is presented for an anomalous inhibitory action of the putative Cl– channel blockers NPPB and DPC on basolateral conductance rather than apical Cl– conductance. 相似文献

Summary Ion flux relations in the unicellular marine algaAcetabularia have been investigated by uptake and washout kinetics of radioactive tracers (22Na+,42K+,36Cl– and86Rb+) in normal cells and in cell segments with altered compartmentation (depleted of vacuole or of cytoplasm). Some flux experiments were supplemented by simultaneous electrophysiological recordings. The main results and conclusions about the steady-state relations are: the plasmalemma is the dominating barrier for translocation of K+ with influx and efflux of about 100 nmol·m–2·sec–1×K+ passes three- to sevenfold more easily than Rb+ does. Under normal conditions, Cl– (the substrate of the electrogenic pump, which dominates the electrical properties of the plasmalemma in the resting state) shows two efflux components of about 17 and 2 mol·m–2·sec–1, and a cytoplasmic as well as vacuolar [Cl–] of about 420mm ([Cl–]
o
=529mm). At 4°C, when the pump is inhibited, both influx and efflux, as well as the cellular [Cl–], are significantly reduced. Na+ ([Na+]
i
: about 70mm, [Na+]
o
: 461mm), which is of minor electrophysiological relevance compared to K+, exhibits rapid and virtually temperature-insensitive (electroneutral) exchange (two components with about 2 and 0.2 mol·m–2·sec–1 for influx and efflux). Some results with Na+ and Cl– are inconsistent with conventional (noncyclic) compartmentation models: (i) equilibration of the vacuole (with the external medium) can be faster than equilibration of the cytoplasm, (ii) absurd concentration values result when calculated by conventional compartmental analysis, and (iii) large amounts of ions can be released from the cell without changes in the electrical potential of the cytoplasm. These observations can be explained by the particular compartmentation of normalAcetabularia cells (as known by electron micrographs) with about 1 part cytoplasm, 5 parts central vacuole, and 5 parts vacuolar vesicles. These vesicles communicate directly with the central vacuole, with the cytoplasm and with the external medium. 相似文献

Summary Loop diuretic-sensitive (Na+,K+,Cl–)-cotransport activity was found to be present in basolateral membrane vesicles of surface and crypt cells of rabbit distal colon epithelium. The presence of grandients of all three ions was essential for optimal transport activity (Na+,K+) gradien-driven36Cl fluxes weree half-maximally inhibited by 0.14 m bumetanide and 44 m furosimide. While86Rb uptake rates showed hyperbolic dependencies on Na+ and K+ concentrations with Hill coefficients of 0.8 and 0.9, respectively, uptakes were sigmoidally related to the Cl– concentration, Hill coefficient 1.8, indicating a 1 Na+: 1 K+:2 Cl– stoichiometry of ion transport.The interaction of putative (Na+, K+, Cl–)-cotransport proteins with loop diuretics was studied from equilibrium-binding experiments using [3H]-bumetanide. The requirement for the simulataneous presence of Na+,K+, and Cl–, saturability, reversibility, and specificity for diuretics suggest specific binding to the (Na+, K+, Cl–)-cotransporter. [3H]-bumetanide recognizes a minimum of two classes of diuretic receptors sites. high-affinity (K
D1=0.13 m;B
max1 =6.4 pmol/mg of protein) and low-affinity (K
D2=34 m;B
max2=153 pmol/mg of protein) sites. The specific binding to the high-affinity receptor was found to be linearly competitive with Cl– (K
1=60mm), whereas low-affinity sites seem to be unaffected by Cl–. We have shown that only high-affinity [3H]-bumetanide binding correlates with transport inhibition raising questions on the physiological significance of diuretic receptor site heterogeneity observed in rabbit distal colon epithelium. 相似文献

Many mammalian cells regulate their volume by the osmotic movement of water directed by anion and cation flux. Ubiquitous volume-dependent anion currents permit cells to recover volume after swelling in response to a hypotonic environment. This study addressed competition between glutamate (Glu) and Cl– permeation in volume-activated anion currents in order to provide insight into the ionic requirements for volume regulation, volume-dependent anion channel activity and to the architecture of the channel pore. The effect of changing the intracellular molar fraction (MF) of Glu and Cl– on conductance and relative anion permeability was evaluated as a function of the extracellular permeant anion and/or the ionic strength. Relative permeability of Glu to Cl– was determined by measuring reversal potentials under defined ionic conditions. Under conditions with high (150 mM) or low (50 mM) ionic strength solutions on both sides of the membrane, Cl– was always more permeable than Glu. When a transmembrane ionic strength gradient (150 mM extracellular: 50 mM intracellular) was set to drive water into the cell, and in the presence of extracellular Cl–, Glu became up to 16-fold more permeable than Cl–. Replacement of extracellular Cl– with Glu abolished this effect. These results indicate that it is possible for Glu to move into the extracellular environment during volume-regulatory events and they support the emerging role of glutamate as a modulator of anion channel activity. 相似文献

Formation of phenylethanoid glycosides by Cistanche deserticola callus grown on solid media 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The optimal growth of Cistanche deserticola callus and formation of phenylethanoid glycosides (PeG) was at 25°C with light irradiation intensity of 24 mol m–2 s–1 on solidified B5 media supplemented with 0.5 mg 6-benzylaminopurine l–1, 10 mg gibberellin l–1, 800 mg casein hydrolysate l–1 and 20 g sucrose l–1. After 30 d culture, the biomass reached 15.5 g dry wt callus l–1 medium and its PEG content was 10.7% (w/w). The PeG content was 42%–127% higher than those in explants. 相似文献

The amino acid and sugar composition of the enzyme protein, the effect of urea, sodium dodecyl sulphate and Concanavalin A on the purified -galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) from the moldCephalosporium acremonium has been studied. The results obtained by gas liquid chromatography indicated the presence ofN-acetylglucosamine, mannose, galactose andN-acetylneuramic acid in the molar proportions 27311. The presence of two types of Asn-linked oligosaccharide structures in the enzyme molecule is assumed. The -galactosidase liberates (1–3), (1–4) and (1–6)-linkedd-galactose units from various synthetic and natural substrates which have been tested. The effects of pH, substrate concentration and temperature on the catalytic activity of the enzyme are described. The purified -galactosidase also exhibited a lectin activity with an affinity towards glucose, and to some extent mannose.Abbreviations p-NPG

Summary We evaluated the effects of vawrying aqueous Cl– concentrations, and of the arginyl- and lysyl-specific reagent phenylglyoxal (PGO), on the properties of Cl– channels fused from basolaterally enriched renal medullary vesicles into planar lipid bilayers. The major channel properties studied were the anion selectivity sequence, anionic requirements for, channel activity. and the efects of varying Cl– concentrations and/or PGO on the relation between holding voltageV

o).Reducingcis Cl– concentrations, in the range 50–320mm, produced a linear reduction in fractional open time (P
v) with a half-maximal reduction inP
o atcis Cl–170mM. Channel activity was sustained by equimolar replacement ofcis Cl– with F–, but not with impermeant isethionate. Fortrans solutions, the relation between Cl– concentration andP
0 at 10mm Cl–. Reducingcis Cl– had no effect on the gating charge (Z) for channel opening, but altered significantly the voltage-independent, energy (G) for channel opening.Phenylglyoxal (PGO) reducedZ and altered G for Cl– channel activity when added tocis, but nottrans solutions, Furthermore, in the presence ofcis PGO, reducing thecis Cl– concentration had no effect onZ but altered G. Thus we propose thatcis PGO and,cis Cl– concentrations affect separate sites determining channel activity at the extracellular faces of, these Cl– channels. 相似文献

Activation of Ca2+ and cAMP-dependent Cl– conductances by extracellular ATP was studied using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. Immediately after addition of extracellular ATP (10 m), activation of wholecell Cl– current exhibiting delayed inactivation and activation kinetics at hyperpolarizing and depolarizing voltages, respectively, was observed. After prolonged activation, the kinetic characteristics of the ATP-induced Cl– current became time- and voltage-independent. When applied to the later phase of the ATP-activated whole-cell current, the disulfonic acid stilbene DIDS (200 m) could only inhibit 64% of the current while diphenylamine-dicarboxylic acid (DPC, 1 mm) completely inhibited it. Inclusion of a peptide inhibitor for protein kinase A (PKI, 10 nm) in the pipette solution blocked ATP-induced time- and voltage-independent current activation but did not affect the delayed activating and inactivating current activation but did not affect the delayed activating and inactivating current which could be totally blocked by DIDS. Anion selectivity sequence was determined in the presence of either PKI or DIDS and found to be significantly different. Increased pipette EGTA (10 mm) or treatment of the cells with trifluoperazine (40 m), an inhibitor of calmodulin, suppressed both types of ATP-induced Cl– currents. No current activation by ATP was observed when cells were dialyzed with the IP3 receptor blocker, heparin (10 ng/ml). These results suggest that extracellular ATP activates IP3-linked Ca2+-dependent regulatory pathway, which in turn activates cAMP-dependent pathway, leading to activation of both Ca2+ and cAMP-dependent Cl– conductances in epididymal cells.The authors wish to thank Mr. W.O.

Summary The membrane of mechanically prepared vesicles ofChara corallina has been investigated by patch-clamp techniques. This membrane consists of tonoplast as demonstrated by the measurement of ATP-driven currents directed into the vesicles as well as by the ATP-dependent accumulation of neutral red. Addition of 1mm ATP to the bath medium induced a membrane current of about 3.2 mA·m–2 creating a voltage across the tonoplast of about –7 mV (cytoplasmic side negative). On excised tonoplast patches, currents through single K+-selective channels have been investigated under various ionic conditions. The open-channel currents saturate at large voltage displacements from the equilibrium voltage for K+ with limiting currents of about +15 and –30 pA, respectively, as measured in symmetric 250mm KCl solutions. The channel is virtually impermeable to Na+ and Cl–. However, addition of Na+ decreases the K+ currents. TheI–V relationships of the open channel as measured at various K+ concentrations with or without Na+ added are described by a 6-state model, the 12 parameters of which are determined to fit the experimental data. 相似文献
