We investigated putative mechanisms by which nitric oxide modulates cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) expression and function in epithelial cells. Immunoprecipitation followed by Western blotting, as well as immunocytochemical and cell surface biotinylation measurements, showed that incubation of both stably transduced (HeLa) and endogenous CFTR expressing (16HBE14o-, Calu-3, and mouse tracheal epithelial) cells with 100 microm diethylenetriamine NONOate (DETA NONOate) for 24-96 h decreased both intracellular and apical CFTR levels. Calu-3 and mouse tracheal epithelial cells, incubated with DETA NONOate but not with 100 microm 8-bromo-cGMP for 96 h, exhibited reduced cAMP-activated short circuit currents when mounted in Ussing chambers. Exposure of Calu-3 cells to nitric oxide donors resulted in the nitration of a number of proteins including CFTR. Nitration was augmented by proteasome inhibition, suggesting a role for the proteasome in the degradation of nitrated proteins. Our studies demonstrate that levels of nitric oxide that are likely to be encountered in the vicinity of airway cells during inflammation may nitrate CFTR resulting in enhanced degradation and decreased function. Decreased levels and function of normal CFTR may account for some of the cystic fibrosis-like symptoms that occur in chronic inflammatory lung diseases associated with increased NO production. 相似文献

Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations inthe cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.CFTR is a chloride channel whose activity requires protein kinaseA-dependent phosphorylation of an intracellular regulatory domain(R-domain) and ATP hydrolysis at the nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs).To identify potential sites of domain-domain interaction within CFTR,we expressed, purified, and refolded histidine (His)- andglutathione-S-transferase (GST)-tagged cytoplasmic domainsof CFTR. ATP-binding to his-NBD1 and his-NBD2 was demonstrated bymeasuring tryptophan fluorescence quenching. Trypticdigestion of in vitro phosphorylated his-NBD1-R and in situphosphorylated CFTR generated the same phosphopeptides. An interactionbetween NBD1-R and NBD2 was assayed by tryptophan fluorescencequenching. Binding among all pairwise combinations of R-domain, NBD1,and NBD2 was demonstrated with an overlay assay. To identifyspecific sites of interaction between domains of CFTR, an overlay assaywas used to probe an overlapping peptide library spanning allintracellular regions of CFTR with his-NBD1, his-NBD2, andGST-R-domain. By mapping peptides from NBD1 and NBD2 that bound toother intracellular domains onto crystal structures for HisP, MalK, andRad50, probable sites of interaction between NBD1 and NBD2 wereidentified. Our data support a model where NBDs form dimers with theATP-binding sites at the domain-domain interface. 相似文献

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a cAMP and cGMP-regulated chloride channel critical to the regulation of intestinal fluid, chloride, and bicarbonate secretion. In cystic fibrosis (CF), mutations in CFTR result in downregulation of CFTR function and small intestinal obstruction. Unlike the human CF intestine, severe gastrointestinal disease and lethal obstruction is common in transgenic mice deficient in CFTR. The relevance of the physiology of CFTR and pathophysiology of CF in genetically altered mice to that of human CF disease remains incompletely understood. We hypothesized that the expression and distribution of CFTR in mouse intestine may differ from that of human and may contribute to the variation in disease expression between the two species. Using immunocytochemical and immunoblot techniques and well-characterized anti-rodent anti-CFTR antibodies, we examined the cellular distribution of CFTR in the mouse intestinal tract. We identified significant differences in villus distribution for CFTR in the mouse proximal small intestine compared to those previously reported for human and rat. These observations are important to the understanding of CFTR pathophysiology in transgenic CF mouse model systems and bear relevance to the different phenotypic expression of disease in mice compared to human. 相似文献

Enhanced osmotic water permeability has been observed in Xenopus oocytes expressing cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Subsequent studies have shown that CFTR activates an endogenous water permeability in oocytes, but that CFTR itself is not the water channel. Here, we show CFTR-dependent activation of endogenous water permeability in normal but not in cystic fibrosis human airway epithelial cells. Cell volume was measured by novel confocal x-z laser scanning microscopy. Glycerol uptake and antisense studies suggest CFTR-dependent regulation of aquaporin 3 (AQP3) water channels in airway epithelial cells. Regulatory interaction was confirmed by coexpression of CFTR and AQP3 cloned from human airways in Xenopus oocytes and of CFTR and rat AQP3 in Chinese hamster ovary cells. These findings indicate that CFTR is a regulator of AQP3 in airway epithelial cells. 相似文献

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) has been known for the past 11 years to be a membrane glycoprotein with chloride channel activity. Only recently has the glycosylation of CFTR been examined in detail, by O'Riordan et al in Glycobiology. Using cells that overexpress wild-type (wt)CFTR, the presence of polylactosamine was noted on the fully glycosylated form of CFTR. In the present commentary the results of that work are discussed in relation to the glycosylation phenotype of cystic fibrosis (CF), and the cellular localization and processing of ΔF508 CFTR. The significance of the glycosylation will be known when endogenous CFTR from primary human tissue is examined. 相似文献

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a chloride channel with 12 membrane-spanning sequences, undergoes inefficient maturation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Potentially charged residues in transmembrane segments may contribute to this defect in biogenesis. We demonstrate that transmembrane segment 6 of CFTR, which contains three basic amino acids, is extremely unstable in the lipid bilayer upon membrane insertion in vitro and in vivo. However, two distinct mechanisms counteract this anchoring deficiency: (i) the ribosome and the ER translocon co-operate to prevent transmembrane segment 6 from passing through the membrane co- translationally; and (ii) cytosolic domains of the ion channel post-translationally maintain this segment of CFTR in a membrane-spanning topology. Although these mechanisms are essential for successful completion of CFTR biogenesis, inefficiencies in their function retard the maturation of the protein. It seems possible that some of the disease-causing mutations in CFTR may reduce the efficiency of proper membrane anchoring of the protein. 相似文献

Mismanaged protein trafficking by the proteostasis network contributes to several conformational diseases, including cystic fibrosis, the most frequent lethal inherited disease in Caucasians. Proteostasis regulators, as cystamine, enable the beneficial action of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) potentiators in ΔF508-CFTR airways beyond drug washout. Here we tested the hypothesis that functional CFTR protein can sustain its own plasma membrane (PM) stability. Depletion or inhibition of wild-type CFTR present in bronchial epithelial cells reduced the availability of the small GTPase Rab5 by causing Rab5 sequestration within the detergent-insoluble protein fraction together with its accumulation in aggresomes. CFTR depletion decreased the recruitment of the Rab5 effector early endosome antigen 1 to endosomes, thus reducing the local generation of phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate. This diverts recycling of surface proteins, including transferrin receptor and CFTR itself. Inhibiting CFTR function also resulted in its ubiquitination and interaction with SQSTM1/p62 at the PM, favoring its disposal. Addition of cystamine prevented the recycling defect of CFTR by enhancing BECN1 expression and reducing SQSTM1 accumulation. Our results unravel an unexpected link between CFTR protein and function, the latter regulating the levels of CFTR surface expression in a positive feed-forward loop, and highlight CFTR as a pivot of proteostasis in bronchial epithelial cells. 相似文献

Regulation of epithelial chloride flux, which is defective in patients with cystic fibrosis, may be mediated by phosphorylation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) or protein kinase C (PKC). Part of the R-domain of CFTR (termed CF-2) was expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli. CF-2 was phosphorylated on seryl residues by PKA, PKC, cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CaM kinase I). Direct amino acid sequencing and peptide mapping of CF-2 revealed that serines 660, 700, 737, and 813 as well as serine 768, serine 795, or both were phosphorylated by PKA and PKG, and serines 686 and 790 were phosphorylated by PKC. CFTR was phosphorylated in vitro by PKA, PKC, or PKG on the same sites that were phosphorylated in CF-2. Kinetic analysis of phosphorylation of CF-2 and of synthetic peptides confirmed that these sites were excellent substrates for PKA, PKC, or PKG. CFTR was immunoprecipitated from T84 cells labeled with 32Pi. Its phosphorylation was stimulated in response to agents that activated either PKA or PKC. Peptide mapping confirmed that CFTR was phosphorylated at several sites identified in vitro. Thus, regulation of CFTR is likely to occur through direct phosphorylation of the R-domain by protein kinases stimulated by different second messenger pathways. 相似文献

Abnormal fluid accumulation in tissues, including the life-threatening cerebral and pulmonary edema, is a severe consequence of bacteria infection. Chlamydia (C.) trachomatis is an obligate intracellular gram-negative human pathogen responsible for a spectrum of diseases, causing tissue fluid accumulation and edema in various organs. However, the underlying mechanism for tissue fluid secretion induced by C. trachomatis and most of other infectious pathogens is not known. Here, we report that in mice C. trachomatis infection models, the expression of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a cAMP activated chloride channel, is up regulated together with increased cytokine release and tissue fluid accumulation that can be reversed by treatment with antibiotic specific for C. trachomatis and CFTR channel blocker. However, C. trachomatis infection cannot induce tissue edema in CFTRtm1Unc mutant mice. Administration of exogenous IL-1beta to mice mimics the C. trachomatis infection-induced CFTR upregulation, enhanced CFTR channel activity and fluid accumulation, further confirming the involvement of CFTR in infection-induced tissue fluid secretion. 相似文献

AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) is a ubiquitous metabolic sensor that inhibits the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). To determine whether CFTR reciprocally regulates AMPK function in airway epithelia and whether such regulation is involved in lung inflammation, AMPK localization, expression, and activity and cellular metabolic profiles were compared as a function of CFTR status in CF and non-CF primary human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells. As compared with non-CF HBE cells, CF cells had greater and more diffuse AMPK staining and had greater AMPK activity than their morphologically matched non-CF counterparts. The cellular [AMP]/[ATP] ratio was higher in undifferentiated than in differentiated non-CF cells, which correlated with AMPK activity under these conditions. However, this nucleotide ratio did not predict AMPK activity in differentiating CF cells. Inhibiting channel activity in non-CF cells did not affect AMPK activity or metabolic status, but expressing functional CFTR in CF cells reduced AMPK activity without affecting cellular [AMP]/[ATP]. Therefore, lack of functional CFTR expression and not loss of channel activity in CF cells appears to up-regulate AMPK activity in CF HBE cells, presumably through non-metabolic effects on upstream regulatory pathways. Compared with wild-type CFTR-expressing immortalized CF bronchial epithelial (CFBE) cells, DeltaF508-CFTR-expressing CFBE cells had greater AMPK activity and greater secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and the interleukins IL-6 and IL-8. Further pharmacologic AMPK activation inhibited inflammatory mediator secretion in both wild type- and DeltaF508-expressing cells, suggesting that AMPK activation in CF airway cells is an adaptive response that reduces inflammation. We propose that therapies to activate AMPK in the CF airway may be beneficial in reducing excessive airway inflammation, a major cause of CF morbidity. 相似文献

Chloride channels in the apical plasma membrane of cells in the dogfish rectal gland have served as a model system for the study of regulation of chloride flux by changes in intracellular cyclic AMP levels. Similar regulation by cyclic AMP has been described for channels in cells of human secretory epithelia where defective regulation by cyclic AMP-dependent protein phosphorylation is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). We have isolated a cDNA clone from the rectal gland encoding a protein that is 72% identical to the human CFTR. One of the major phosphorylation sites in CFTR is absent in the dogfish protein. The dogfish protein has, however, four additional putative substrate sites for the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. A peptide antibody, which was raised against an amino acid sequence common to both the human and dogfish CFTR sequences, recognizes proteins with similar molecular masses (160 kDa) in the dogfish gland and in mammalian lung. Immunolocalization studies with this antibody show that the putative dogfish CFTR is localized to the apical membrane of cells lining the lumen of the rectal gland. 相似文献

Understanding the structural basis for defects in protein function that underlie protein-based genetic diseases is the fundamental requirement for development of therapies. This situation is epitomized by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-the gene product known to be defective in CF patients-that appears particularly susceptible to misfolding when its biogenesis is hampered by mutations at critical loci. While the primary CF-related defect in CFTR has been localized to deletion of nucleotide binding fold (NBD1) residue Phe508, an increasing number of mutations (now ca. 1,500) are being associated with CF disease of varying severity. Hundreds of these mutations occur in the CFTR transmembrane domain, the site of the protein's chloride channel. This report summarizes our current knowledge on how mutation-dependent misfolding of the CFTR protein is recognized on the cellular level; how specific types of mutations can contribute to the misfolding process; and describes experimental approaches to detecting and elucidating the structural consequences of CF-phenotypic mutations. 相似文献

We have investigated several purification strategies for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) based on its structural similarity to other proteins of the traffic ATPase/ABC transporter family. Recombinant CFTR expressed in heterologous cells was readily solubilized by digitonin and initially separated from the majority of other cellular proteins by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. CFTR, with two predicted nucleotide binding domains, bound avidly to several triazine dye columns, although elution with MgATP, MgCl2, or high ionic strength buffers was inefficient. CFTR did not bind to either ATP or ADP coupled to agarose. Because CFTR is a glycoprotein we investigated its binding to lectin columns. CFTR bound readily to wheat germ agglutinin, but poorly to Lens culinaris agglutinin. CFTR was enriched 9-10 times when eluted from wheat germ agglutinin with N-acetylglucosamine. This enrichment was tripled if lectin chromatography followed sucrose gradient centrifugation. Our results suggest the combination of sucrose density gradient centrifugation and lectin chromatography would be a satisfactory approach to initial purification of CFTR expressed in heterologous cells. 相似文献

Mechanisms of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator activation by S-nitrosoglutathione
Chen L Patel RP Teng X Bosworth CA Lancaster JR Matalon S 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2006,281(14):9190-9199
We investigated the mechanisms by which S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) alters cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mediated chloride (Cl(-)) secretion across Calu-3 cells, an extensively used model of human airway gland serous cells. Confluent monolayers of Calu-3 cells, grown under an air-liquid interface, were mounted in Ussing chambers for the measurements of chloride short circuit current (I(sc)) and trans-epithelial resistance (R(t)). Addition of GSNO into the apical compartment of these chambers resulted in significant and sustained increase of I(sc) with an IC(50) of 3.2 +/- 1 mum (mean +/- 1 S.E.; n = 6). Addition of either glibenclamide or pre-treatment of Calu-3 cells with the soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor 1H-(1,2,4)-oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one totally prevented the GSNO-induced increase of I(sc). Conversely, BAY 41-2272, a sGC stimulator, increased I(sc) in a dose-response fashion. The GSNO increase of I(sc) was reversed by addition of two phosphatases (PP2A1, PP2A2) into the apical compartment of Ussing chambers containing Calu-3 monolayers. Oxy-myoglobin (oxy-Mb, 300 mum) added into the apical compartment of Ussing chambers either prior or after GSNO either completely prevented or immediately reversed the increase of I(sc). However, smaller concentrations of oxy-Mb (1-10 mum), sufficient to scavenge NO in the medium (as assessed by direct measurement of NO in the Ussing chamber using an ISO-NO meter) decreased I(sc) partially. Oxy-Mb did not reverse the increase of I(sc) following addition of GSNO and cysteine (50 mum). These findings indicate that GSNO stimulates Cl secretion via both cGMP-dependent and cGMP-independent mechanisms. 相似文献
