We investigated whether or not polarized renal epithelial cells produce antibacterial factors, which aid in host defense at the cell surface of renal epithelium. A model of polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells grown on filters was used to test for the presence of apically or basolaterally secreted factors on the growth of non-virulent (XL1-Blue) and uropathogenic (J96) strains of Escherichia coli (E. coli). Growth of both XL1-Blue and J96 strains of E. coli in medium on the apical and basolateral surface of MDCK cells was inhibited as compared to bacterial growth in medium not exposed to MDCK cells. The inhibition of bacterial growth was similar in both apical and basolateral surface medium. Pretreatment of MDCK cells with hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) blunted the inhibition of XL1-Blue and J96 growth in apical and basolateral surface medium as compared to growth in medium on the surfaces of untreated MDCK cells. Immunofluorescent analysis demonstrated the presence of beta-defensin isoforms 1-3 in MDCK cells, with isoform 1 being the most prevalent form observed. HGF treatment reduced the amount of immunoreactive beta-defensin-1 in MDCK cells. These data demonstrate that polarized renal epithelium produce antibacterial factors. The renotropic growth factor HGF inhibits these antibacterial factors. beta-defensins may contribute to this antibacterial activity and play an important role in renal epithelial resistance to bacterial infections. 相似文献

When mamalian cells are starved for amino acids, the activity of the A amino acid transport system increases, a phenomenon called adaptive regulation. We have examined the effects of those factors which support Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell growth in a defined medium on the derepression of System A activity. Of the five factors which supported MDCK cell growth, insulin was found to be an absolute requirement for derepression. In contrast, PGE1 was a negative controlling factor for the transport system. Growth of MDCK cells in the absence of PGE1 resulted in elevated System A activity which derepressed poorly upon amino acid starvation. Kinetic analysis of α-(methylamino) isobutyric acid (mAIB) uptake as a function of substrate concentration showed that the elevated A activity observed when cells were grown in the absence of PGE1 was kinetically similar to the activity induced by starvation for amino acids. Transport of mAIB by amino-acid-fed cells grown in the presence of PGE1 was characterized by a linear Eadie-Hofstee graph and by a relatively low Vmax. Transport by cells starved for amino acids or by cells grown in the absence of PGE1 was characterized by biphasic kinetics for mAIB transport and by elevated Vmax values. An influence of growth factors on the inactivation of derepressed A activity was also observed. In the presence of cycloheximide the rate of loss of A activity in amino-acid-starved cells was 1/4–1/2 that of amino-acid-fed cells. Insulin slowed inactivation in the absence of most amino acids in a protein-synthesis-independent manner, but insulin did not influence the more rapid inactivation observed in amino-acid-fed cells. These results indicate that the level of System A activity observed in response to regulation by amino acids represents a balance between carrier synthesis and inactivation, which can be positively or negatively influenced by growth factors. 相似文献

Alterations in epithelial cell polarity and in the subcellular distributions of epithelial ion transport proteins are key molecular consequences of acute kidney injury and intracellular energy depletion. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a cellular energy sensor, is rapidly activated in response to renal ischemia, and we demonstrate that its activity is upregulated by energy depletion in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. We hypothesized that AMPK activity may influence the maintenance or recovery of epithelial cell organization in mammalian renal epithelial cells subjected to energy depletion. MDCK cells were ATP depleted through a 1-h incubation with antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose. Immunofluoresence localization demonstrated that this regimen induces mislocalization of the Na-K-ATPase from its normal residence at the basolateral plasma membrane to intracellular vesicular compartments. When cells were pretreated with the AMPK activator metformin before energy depletion, basolateral localization of Na-K-ATPase was preserved. In MDCK cells in which AMPK expression was stably knocked down with short hairpin RNA, preactivation of AMPK with metformin did not prevent Na-K-ATPase redistribution in response to energy depletion. In vivo studies demonstrate that metformin activated renal AMPK and that treatment with metformin before renal ischemia preserved cellular integrity, preserved Na-K-ATPase localization, and led to reduced levels of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, a biomarker of tubular injury. Thus AMPK may play a role in preserving the functional integrity of epithelial plasma membrane domains in the face of energy depletion. Furthermore, pretreatment with an AMPK activator before ischemia may attenuate the severity of renal tubular injury in the context of acute kidney injury. 相似文献

The expressions of mRNAs of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor (c-met) and its effects were examined in cultured renal epithelial cell lines (OK, LLCPK1, and MDCK cells) and rat mesangial cells in primary culture. Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of HGF mRNA in mesangial cells, but not in epithelial cells. c-met mRNA was detected in epithelial cells, but not in mesangial cells. HGF stimulated [3H]-thymidine incorporation (DNA synthesis) dose-dependently in OK and LLCPK1 cells, but not in MDCK and mesangial cells. Ouabaine sensitive rubidium uptake (Na,K-ATPase activity) was stimulated by 63% with HGF (10 ng/ml) treatment for 16hr in MDCK cells. The results suggest that HGF is produced in the kidney, at least in mesangial cells and works on epithelial cells to stimulate the proliferation and/or to modify cell functions in a paracrine manner. 相似文献

Polycystic kidney diseases (PKD) are characterized by excessive proliferation of renal tubular epithelial cells, development of fluid-filled cysts, and progressive renal insufficiency. cAMP inhibits proliferation of normal renal tubular epithelial cells but stimulates proliferation of renal tubular epithelial cells derived from patients with PKD. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells, which are widely used as an in vitro model of cystogenesis, also proliferate in response to cAMP. Intracellular cAMP levels are tightly regulated by phosphodiesterases (PDE). Isoform-specific PDE inhibitors have been developed as therapeutic agents to regulate signaling pathways directed by cAMP. In other renal cell types, we have previously demonstrated that cAMP is hydrolyzed by PDE3 and PDE4, but only PDE3 inhibitors suppress proliferation by inhibiting Raf-1 activity (Cheng J, Thompson MA, Walker HJ, Gray CE, Diaz Encarnacion MM, Warner GM, Grande JP. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 287:F940-F953, 2004.) A potential role for PDE isoform(s) in cAMP-mediated proliferation of MDCK cells has not previously been established. Similar to what we have previously found in several other renal cell types, cAMP hydrolysis in MDCK cells is directed primarily by PDE4 (85% of total activity) and PDE3 (15% of total activity). PDE4 inhibitors are more effective than PDE3 inhibitors in increasing intracellular cAMP levels in MDCK cells. However, only PDE3 inhibitors, and not PDE4 inhibitors, stimulate mitogenesis of MDCK cells. PDE3 but not PDE4 inhibitors activate B-Raf but not Raf-1, as assessed by an in vitro kinase assay. PDE3 but not PDE4 inhibitors activate the ERK pathway and activate cyclins D and E, as assessed by histone H1 kinase assay. We conclude that mitogenesis of MDCK cells is regulated by a functionally compartmentalized intracellular cAMP pool directed by PDE3. Pharmacologic agents that stimulate PDE3 activity may provide the basis for new therapies directed toward reducing cystogenesis in patients with PKD. 相似文献

This study analyzes the differential characteristics of the Na(+)-H+ antiport systems observed in several epithelial and non-epithelial renal cell lines. Confluent monolayers of LLC-PK1A cells have a Na(+)-H+ antiport system located in the apical membrane of the cell. This system, however, is not expressed during cell proliferation or after incubation in the presence of different mitogenic agents. In contrast, confluent monolayers of MDCK4 express minimal Na(+)-H+ antiport activity in the confluent monolayer state but reach maximal antiport activity during cell proliferation or after activation of the cells by different mitogenic agents. Similar results were obtained with the renal fibroblastic cell line BHK. The system present in MDCK4 cells is localized in the basolateral membrane of the epithelial cell. In LLC-PK1A cells, an increase in the extracellular Na+ concentration produces a hyperbolic increase in the activity of the Na(+)-H+ antiporter. In MDCK4 and BHK cells, however, an increase in external Na+ produces a sigmoid activation of the system. Maximal activation of the system occur at a pHo 7.5 in LLC-PK1A cells and pHo 7.0 in MDCK4 cells. The Na(+)-H+ antiporter of LLC-PK1A cells is more sensitive to the inhibitory effect of amiloride (Ki 1.8 x 10(-7) M) than is the antiporter of MDCK4 cells (Ki 7.0 x 10(-6) M). Moreover, 5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride is the most effective inhibitor of Na(+)-H+ exchange in LLC-PK1A cells, but the least effective inhibitor in MDCK4 cells. Conversely, the analog, 5-(N,N-dimethyl)amiloride, is the most effective inhibitor of Na(+)-H+ exchange in MDCK4 cells, but is the least effective inhibitor in LLC-PK1A cells. These results support the hypothesis that Na(+)-H+ exchange observed in LLC-PK1A and other cell lines may represent the activity of different Na(+)-H+ antiporters. 相似文献

Summary We have investigated the effects of interactions between growth factors and heparin-like glycosaminoglycans on untransformed
human arterial smooth muscle cells (hASMC) in vitro. The results indicate that heparin in the presence of serum mitogens prevents
the cells from entering the S phase of the cell cycle by binding and inactivating reversibly some serum mitogen(s). Our results
suggest that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is one of them and that it is the most potent stimulator of hASMC growth
in vitro. Thymidine incorporation as well as increase in DNA content was inhibited not only by the presence of heparin in
serum-containing medium but also when serum was chromatographed on Heparin-Sepharose at physiologic salt concentrations before
exposure to the cells. The mitogenic activity of the unretained serum fraction was restored by the addition of PDGF AA, AB,
or BB dimers or of a fraction (RF I) that dissociated from Heparin-Sepharose at 0.2 to 0.6M NaCl. Radiolabeled recombinant PDGF (c-sis) dissociated from Heparin-Sepharose within a concentration range of NaCl similar
to that of RF I. Neither the unretained material nor the RF I or PDGF dimers were effective alone. The effect of RF I was
significantly decreased by the addition of an anti-PDGF IgG that is known to neutralize the PDGF mitogenic activity partially.
Addition of heparin abolished DNA-synthesis when the PDGF dimers or RF I were combined with the unretained fraction. A second
fraction (RF II) bound strongly to Heparin-Sepharose and eluted between 1.1 and 1.6M NaCl. The RF II also induced DNA synthesis but was neither as efficient as RF I nor depending on other serum fractions for
growth promotion and it was not inhibited by anti-PDGF IgG. A similar strong affinity for Heparin-Sepharose was found for
labeled basic fibroblast growth factor and we cannot exclude the possibility that RF II represent fibroblast growth factor.
Under these culture conditions, inhibition of hASMC proliferation was directly correlated with the expression of smooth muscle
specific alpha actin isoforms in stress fibers and the suppression of a proliferating cell-specific nuclear antigen. Conversely,
stimulation of hASMC proliferation was associated with the opposite phenomenon. We conclude that heparin-like glycosaminoglycans
influence growth and phenotype of hASMCs in vitro by binding and inactivating PDGF. Inasmuch as heparin-like substances constitute
a significant proportion of the proteoglycan-associated glycosaminoglycans of the arterial wall, such mechanisms might be
important for the development of atherosclerotic lesions. 相似文献

Renal tubular epithelial cells synthesize laminin (LN)5 during regeneration of the epithelium after ischemic injury. LN5 is a truncated laminin isoform of particular importance in the epidermis, but it is also constitutively expressed in a number of other epithelia. To investigate the role of LN5 in morphogenesis of a simple renal epithelium, we examined the synthesis and function of LN5 in the spreading, proliferation, wound-edge migration, and apical-basal polarization of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. MDCK cells synthesize LN5 only when subconfluent, and they degrade the existing LN5 matrix when confluent. Through the use of small-interfering RNA to knockdown the LN5 alpha3 subunit, we were able to demonstrate that LN5 is necessary for cell proliferation and efficient wound-edge migration, but not apical-basal polarization. Surprisingly, suppression of LN5 production caused cells to spread much more extensively than normal on uncoated surfaces, and exogenous keratinocyte LN5 was unable to rescue this phenotype. MDCK cells also synthesized laminin alpha5, a component of LN10, that independent studies suggest may form an assembled basal lamina important for polarization. Overall, our findings indicate that LN5 is likely to play an important role in regulating cell spreading, migration, and proliferation during reconstitution of a continuous epithelium. 相似文献

The Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line has been proposed as a model for studying intercalated (IC) cells of the renal cortical collecting duct. The IC cells are characterized by peanut lectin (PNA) binding capacity, carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity and Cl-–HCO

exchange, the type of CA isozyme and the relationship between these two characteristics and PNA binding, have not been investigated in MDCK cells by immunocytochemical methods. Using two antibodies raised against human erythrocyte band 3 protein and two against human erythrocyte CA I and II isozymes, our study provides evidence that a protein related to band 3 is expressed in about 5% of cultured MDCK cells; these band 3-positive cells do not bind PNA and are not reactive for CAI or CAII. About 30% of the MDCK cells bind PNA, two-thirds of which are also CAII-positive. A majority (about 65%) of MDCK cells is not reactive for the three markers used; their density is increased after incubation with aldosterone. These data indicate (i) that the Cl-–HCO

exchanger of the MDCK cells could be related to human erythrocyte band 3, (ii) that the CA activity of the MDCK cell line bears antigenic identity with the erythrocyte CA II isozyme and (iii) that the latter is always co-localized with PNA binding. These results provide immunocytochemical evidence for the heterogeneity of the MDCK cell line, which might reflect the cellular heterogeneity encountered in the renal cortical collecting duct. Our data also indicate that clonal selection will be required for future functional studies of the MDCK cells. 相似文献

A rat brain cDNA clone has been isolated using a eukaryotic cell transient expression system with anti-galactosylceramide (GalCer) monoclonal antibody (MAb), that induces GalCer expression in COS-7 cells. The protein was designated as GalCer expression factor-1 (GEF-1). The deduced amino acid sequences revealed a strikingly high homology to a mouse hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hrs), but no homology to UDP-galactose: ceramide galactosyltransferase. COS-7 cells transfected with the cDNA clone showed dramatic morphological changes and cell growth suppression. Overexpression of GEF-1 in MDCK (MDCK/GEF-1) cells showed GalCer-derived sulfatide expression as well as morphological changes, but not cell growth suppression. The enzyme activity and the mRNA level of CGT increased significantly in MDCK/GEF-1 cells compared with control cells. Taking these results together, it is suggested that GEF-1 may play an important role in regulating GalCer and sulfatide expression in the epithelial cells as well as in the brain. 相似文献

We previously reported that GalCer expression factor 1 (GEF-1), a rat homologue of hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hrs), induced GalCer expression, morphological changes, and cell growth inhibition in COS-7 cells. In this study, we describe the characterization of GEF-1 in MDCK cells. Overexpression of GEF-1 in MDCK (MDCK/GEF-1) cells showed GalCer-derived sulfatide expression as well as dramatic morphological changes, but not cell growth suppression. The enzyme activity and the mRNA level of UDP-galactose:ceramide galactosyltransferase (CGT) increased significantly in MDCK/GEF-1 cells compared with control cells. GEF-1 molecule is composed of four domains; a zinc-finger (Z), a proline-rich (P), a coiled-coil (C), and a proline/glutamine-rich (Q) domain. MDCK cells transfected with various GEF-1 deletion mutants were examined for morphology and for glycolipid expression. MDCK cells transfected with Z-domain deletion mutant (MDCK/PCQ) and those with both Z- and P-domains deletion mutant (MDCK/CQ) were similar to those with a wild-type GEF-1 (MDCK/ZPCQ) in shape, exhibiting fibroblast-like cells, whereas those with the other deletion mutants showed no morphological changes, exhibiting typical epithelial-like cells. On the other hand, MDCK/ZPCQ, MDCK/PCQ, MDCK/CQ, and MDCK/Q cells expressed sulfatide, whereas those with the other deletion mutants that did not include the Q-domain showed neither GalCer nor sulfatide expression. Thus, the correlation between fibroblast-like cells in shape and the glycolipid expression was good in these deletion mutants except MDCK/Q cells, which showed epithelial-like cells, but expressed sulfatide. The glycolipid expression paralleled CGT mRNA levels. Taking these results together, it is suggested that only the Q-domain may be essential for the role of GEF-1 in inducing CGT mRNA, whereas the Q-domain together with the C-domain may be required for the induction of morphological changes in MDCK cells. 相似文献

Evidence that hepatocyte growth factor abrogates contact inhibition of mitosis in Madin-Darby canine kidney cell monolayers. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

It is becoming increasingly apparent that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) plays an important role in kidney development, regeneration, and transformation to carcinoma. Previous in vitro studies have shown that HGF stimulates cell scattering, but not proliferation, in the renal epithelial cell line Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) when grown on plastic at low density. This communication demonstrates that HGF treatment of confluent monolayers of MDCK also stimulates DNA synthesis and cell division. HGF stimulated thymidine incorporation in confluent MDCK cell monolayers grown on plastic in a dose dependent fashion, but did not stimulate thymidine incorporation in MDCK cells at 10-20% confluency on plastic. Additionally, basolaterally, but not apically, applied HGF stimulated thymidine incorporation in confluent MDCK cell monolayers grown on filters. Immunofluorescent labeling of nuclei in control and HGF treated MDCK cell monolayers grown on filters demonstrated an increase in mitotic figures. Confocal X-Z section views and direct cell counts of MDCK cell monolayers grown on filters demonstrated an increase in cell number after HGF treatment compared to controls. This is the first report of HGF stimulating cell proliferation in previously quiescent renal epithelial cell monolayers. This model will be useful for studying the mechanisms controlling cell proliferation rates in epithelial tissue. 相似文献

It has been suggested that steroids interact with peptide hormones in part by rapid, potentially non-genomic, mechanisms. The peptide hormone epidermal growth factor (EGF) regulates cell proliferation and ion transport using ERK1/2 as downstream signal. Furthermore, the EGF-receptor (EGF-R) is involved in signaling by G-protein-coupled receptors, growth hormone and cytokines via transactivation. We show that aldosterone modulates Na(+)/H(+)-exchange in renal collecting duct-derived Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells via ERK1/2 in a similar way as compared to growth factors. Furthermore, we tested the hypothesis that aldosterone uses the EGF-R as heterologous signal transducer in MDCK cells. Aldosterone induces a rapid increase of ERK1/2 phosphorylation and cytosolic Ca(2+)-concentration of similar extend as compared to EGF. Furthermore, aldosterone stimulates EGF-R Tyr-phosphorylation. Inhibition of EGF-R kinase abolished aldosterone-induced signaling. Aldosterone-induced Ca(2+)-influx seems to be mediated by the activation of ERK1/2, whereas ERK1/2 activation does not depend on Ca(2+)-influx. Our data show that aldosterone uses the EGF-R-ERK1/2 signaling cascade to elicit its rapid effects in MDCK cells. 相似文献

In the physiological state, protein synthesis is controlled by calcium homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recently, evidence has been presented that dividing cells can adapt to an irreversible inhibition of the ER calcium pump (SERCA), although the mechanisms underlying this adaption have not yet been elucidated. Exposing primary neuronal cells to thapsigargin (Tg, a specific irreversible inhibition of SERCA) resulted in a complete suppression of protein synthesis and disaggregation of polyribosomes indicating inhibition of the initiation step of protein synthesis. Protein synthesis and ribosomal aggregation recovered to 50-70% of control when cells were cultured in medium supplemented with serum for 24 h, but recovery was significantly suppressed in a serum-free medium. Culturing cells in serum-free medium for 24 h already caused an almost 50% suppression of SERCA activity and protein synthesis. SERCA activity did not recover after Tg treatment, and a second exposure of cells to Tg, 24 h after the first, had no effect on protein synthesis. Acute exposure of neurons to Tg induced a depletion of ER calcium stores as indicated by an increase in cytoplasmic calcium activity, but this response was not elicited by the same treatment 24 h later. However, treatments known to deplete ER calcium stores (exposure to the ryanodine receptor agonists caffeine or 2-hydroxycarbazole, or incubating cells in calcium-free medium supplemented with EGTA) caused a second suppression of protein synthesis when applied 24 h after Tg treatment. The results suggest that after Tg exposure, restoration of protein synthesis was induced by recovery of the regulatory link between ER calcium homeostasis and protein synthesis, and not by renewed synthesis of SERCA protein or development of a new regulatory system for the control of protein synthesis. The effect of serum withdrawal on SERCA activity and protein synthesis points to a role of growth factors in maintaining ER calcium homeostasis, and suggests that the ER acts as a mediator of cell damage after interruption of growth factor supplies. 相似文献

Summary MDCK is a transformed cell line derived from normal dog kidney. It exhibits qualities of renal tubular epithelium and of papillary
adenocarcinoma. On solid substrates, MDCK forms confluent monolayers that are studded with multicellular blisters and cordlike
structures. Ouabain, at a concentration of 4×10−8
m, abolishes blister formation within 24 hr; withdrawal of the drug brings about reappearance of the blisters. Ouabain-sensitive
ATPase activity has been demonstrated in these cells by biochemical measurement. These findings suggest that blister formation
in MDCK monolayer growth is associated with active transport of solutes accompanied by water and that 4×10−8
m of ouabain interferes with these transport systems. As an additional early effect, the drug decreases the frequency of mitosis.
The exposure of MDCK monolayers to ouabain for several weeks results in profound cytological alterations. A marked eosinophilic
stippling of the periphery of chronically exposed cells is seen with the light microscope. After prolonged exposure to ouabain,
the cell population of MDCK monolayers becomes clearly heterogeneous, with frequent giant cells and foci of small, hyperchromatic
proliferating cells. The small cells may indicate the appearance of ouabain-resistant strains.
