Cell volume regulation occurs in both tight, Na+-transporting epithelia (e.g., frog skin) and in leaky. NaCl-transporting epithelia (e.g. amphibian gallbladder). In tight epithelia volume regulation occurs only in response to cell swelling, i.e. only regulatory volume decrease (RVD) is observed, whereas in leaky epithelia cell volume regulation has been observed in response to osmotic challenges that either swell or shrink the cells. In other words, both RVD and regulatory volume increase (RVI) are present. Both volume regulatory responses involve stimulation of ion transport in a polarized fashion: in RVD the response is basolateral KCl efflux, whereas in RVI it is apical membrane NaCl uptake. The loss of KCl during RVD appears to result in most instances from increases in basolateral electrodiffusive K+ and Cl-permeabilities. In gallbladder, concomitant activation of coupled KCl efflux may also occur. The RVI response includes activation of apical membrane cation (Na+/H+) and anion (Cl-/HCO-3) exchangers. It is presently unclear whether the net ion fluxes resulting from activation of these transporters, during either RVD or RVI, account for the measured rates of restoration of cell volume. In gallbladder epithelium, RVD is inhibited by agents which disrupt microfilaments or interfere with the Ca2+-calmodulin system. These pharmacologic effects are absent in RVI. Some steps in the chain of events resulting in either RVI or RVD have been established, but the signals involved remain largely unknown. There is reason to suspect a role of intracellular pH in the case of RVI and of membrane insertion of transporters in the case of RVD, possibly with causal roles of both intracellular Ca2+ and the cytoskeleton in the latter. 相似文献

A cephalin-cholesterol membrane model is described whose electrical resistance can be reversibly raised by CaCl2 or lowered by KCl or NaCl whether these ions are added to the membrane by mechanical immersion or are driven in electrically. Either KCl or NaCl acts antagonistically to CaCl2. Experiments with controlled pH indicate that the above effects depend somehow on combination of the cations with the phospholipid acidic groups. Also, they are correlated with decreased membrane hydration in CaCl2 solutions, and increased hydration in KCl or NaCl solutions. It is conjectured that cells may regulate their transsurface ion pathways and fluxes by K-Ca competition for negatively charged binding sites on plasma membrane phospholipid. It is regarded as a corollary to say that a fundamental event in excitation is displacement of membrane Ca from such a site by catelectrotonically propelled K. 相似文献

Under appropriate conditions (presence of cation ionophores) net KCl efflux measured with a K+ electrode can be used to estimate conductive Cl- fluxes, a sensitive procedure that allows continuous recording. The procedure was tested in human red cells by demonstrating effects of ionophores and of an anion transport inhibitor, and in dissociated MDCK cells by demonstration of cAMP and volume-activated Cl- fluxes. 相似文献

Membrane voltage arises from the transport of ions through ion-translocating ATPases, ion-coupled transport of solutes, and ion channels, and is an integral part of the bioenergetic “currency” of the membrane. The dynamics of membrane voltage—so-called action, systemic, and variation potentials—have also led to a recognition of their contributions to signal transduction, both within cells and across tissues. Here, we review the origins of our understanding of membrane voltage and its place as a central element in regulating transport and signal transmission. We stress the importance of understanding voltage as a common intermediate that acts both as a driving force for transport—an electrical “substrate”—and as a product of charge flux across the membrane, thereby interconnecting all charge-carrying transport across the membrane. The voltage interconnection is vital to signaling via second messengers that rely on ion flux, including cytosolic free Ca2+, H+, and the synthesis of reactive oxygen species generated by integral membrane, respiratory burst oxidases. These characteristics inform on the ways in which long-distance voltage signals and voltage oscillations give rise to unique gene expression patterns and influence physiological, developmental, and adaptive responses such as systemic acquired resistance to pathogens and to insect herbivory.Membrane voltage serves as a platform coordinating ion flux to transmit and transduce biological signals. Advances
- The biophysics of transport that determine membrane voltage are well-described with quantitative flux equations.
- In the models of the guard cell and the giant algae Chara and Nitella these charge-transporting processes accurately describe and predict physiological behavior, including the coupling of membrane voltage oscillations with ion flux, [Ca2+]i, pH, their consequences for cellular osmotic adjustments, and their spatial propagation.
- Unlike neuronal and other animal tissues, action potentials in plants are mediated by a temporal sequence of ion flux through Ca2+ and Cl- channels with voltage recovery driven by ion flux through K+ channels. The interplay of channel-mediated ion flux and changes in H+-ATPase activity are likely responsible for the slower propagation of variation and systemic potentials.
- In terrestrial plants, membrane voltage transients may propagate along vascular traces, both through the parenchymal cells lining the xylem and through the phloem. Propagation of such voltage transients is associated with glutamate receptor-like channels that may contribute to plasma membrane Ca2+ flux and [Ca2+]i elevations.
- Changes in [Ca2+]i, pH, and reactive oxygen species are key mediators that translate voltage signals into physiological, developmental, and adaptive responses in plant tissues.

The characteristics of 86Rb+ fluxes through conductive channels in basolateral-membrane vesicles isolated from pars convoluta of rabbit proximal tubule were investigated. In KCl loaded vesicles a transient accumulation of 86Rb+ was observed which was inhibited by BaCl2. The accumulation was driven by an electrical diffusion potential, as shown in experiments using membrane vesicles loaded with Li2SO4 and an outwardly directed Li+ gradient established with a Li(+)-ionophore. The vesicles containing the channel showed a cation selectivity with the order K+ = Rb+ much greater than Li+ greater than or equal to Na+ greater than choline+. The 86Rb+ flux was dependent on intravesicular Ca2+. Increasing concentrations of Ca2+ gradually decreased the 86Rb+ uptake. 相似文献

The relationships among cellular ion fluxes, ion compartmentation, and the turnover kinetics of cytosolic ion pools are crucial to the understanding of the regulatory mechanisms and thermodynamic gradients that determine plasma membrane ion fluxes. We here provide an analysis of published data to quantify these relationships for the two major nutrient elements in plants, nitrogen and potassium. We discuss the implications of these relationships for plant ion fluxes in general, and focus more specifically on problems associated with the accurate measurement of fluxes to and from rapidly exchanging pools, particularly the cytosolic calcium pool. 相似文献

Ionic flux is most likely to regulate the chemiosmotic potential differences across vacuolysosomal membranes in animal, plant, and fungal cells. We found a membrane potential-dependent cation channel in yeast vacuolar membrane and characterized its several features by an electrophysiological method using artificial planar bilayer membranes incorporated with isolated yeast vacuolar membrane vesicles. This ion channel conducts K+ (single channel conductance, 435 pS in 0.3 M KCl) and several other monovalent cations (Cs+, Na+, and Li+) with broad selectivity, but does not conduct Cl-. The opening of this channel is regulated by the membrane potential and the presence of calcium ion on the cytoplasmic face. These characteristics suggested that the vacuolar cation channel functions as one of essential components for formation and regulation of the chemical and electrical potential differences across the vacuolar membrane. 相似文献

The Mg, Ca-ATPase from Escherichia coli is activated by KCl at low concentration and inhibited at high ion concentration. The optimum is at 30 mm KCl. The anion has a major effect, the monovalent cation a minor effect. The activation by Cl? shows positive cooperativity with a Hill coefficient nH= 2. The activation is accompanied by a decrease in Km, leaving V unchanged. Thus the activation is seen especially at low substrate [MgATP] concentration. Trypsin-treated ATPase is also activated by KCl. An allosteric transition by anions is assumed. 相似文献

The organic mercurial p-chloromercuribenzensulfonic acid (PCMBS) reversibly increases fluxes of sodium and potassium across the human red blood cell membrane. We examined the effect of different monovalent anions on cation fluxes stimulated by PCMBS. A substantial portion of the fluxes of both cations was found to have a specific anion requirement for chloride or bromide, and was not observed when chloride was replaced by nitrate, acetate or methylsulfate. The chloride-dependent component of the cation fluxes was only observed when the cells were exposed to PCMBS concentrations of 0.5 mM or greater. Furosemide (1 mM) did not inhibit the PCMBS-stimulated cation fluxes. The observed anion specificity is directly associated with the transport process rather than PCMBS binding to the membrane. A portion of the potassium transport stimulated by PCMBS appears to involve K+-K+ exchange; however, Na+ + K+ cotransport is not stimulated by this sulfhydryl reagent. 相似文献

The role of cation and anion uptake in salt-stimulated growth of light-grown, GA3-treated lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) hypocotyl sections was investigated. Potassium chloride (10 mm) causes a 2-fold increase in the growth rate of GA3-treated hypocotyl sections without affecting the growth rate of sections incubated in the absence of GA3. Salt uptake is the same in both treatments, and furthermore the uptake of cation and anion is stoichiometric during the first 24 hours under all incubation conditions. The importance of the anion for cation uptake is demonstrated in experiments with benzenesulfonate− and iminodiacetate2−. When K+ and Na+ are supplied only as the benzenesulfonate and iminodiacetate salts, growth and cation uptake are markedly reduced compared to KCl and NaCl. Calculation of the osmotic potential of salt-treated sections based on measurement of K+ and Cl− uptake suggests that the observed increase in tissue osmolality is a result of salt uptake. Similarly, uptake of ions can account for the shift in water potential when sections are incubated in 10 mm KCl. We conclude that the change in growth rate of light-grown, GA3-treated sections caused by the addition of KCl or NaCl to the incubation medium results solely from decreased water potential of the tissue due to ion uptake. 相似文献

Organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1, SLC22A1), like many solute carrier 22 (SLC22) family members, is important for the disposition of clinically important drugs, metabolites and signaling molecules. Several studies suggest that SLC22 family (eg. organic anion transporters or OATs and OCTs) bind and possibly transport prostaglandins with relatively high affinity (submicromolar). The affinities of OCT1 and OATs toward PGE2 and PGF2a reported in these cell-based transport studies are considerably greater than for xenobiotics and natural metabolite substrates—in many cases over 100-fold higher. This raises the possibility that prostaglandins are key endogenous substrates and/or that they act on the transporter in a manner different from other substrates such as xenobiotics and lower affinity metabolites. To further investigate OCT1—prostaglandin interactions, we designed biophysical studies using purified bovine OCT1 (Bos taurus, btOCT1/SLC22A1) with PGE2 analogs, in fluorescently labeled and label-free formats. Using fluorescence polarization (FP), we detected a binding of btOCT1 to the PGE2-Rhodamine conjugate at submicromolar affinity, consistent with affinity data for PGE2 from cells over-expressing the related human OCT1. Using purified native btOCT1 as analyte and biotinylated PGE2 analog as ligand, our data from surface plasmon resonance (SPR) revealed that btOCT1 specifically interacts to PGE2 with KD values in the hundred nanomolar range. BtOCT1 also demonstrated a slow association (ka) in the range of 103 M-1s-1 and an even slower dissociation rate (kd) in the range of 10−4 s-1 for PGE2, suggesting the possibility of a different mode of binding compared to other structurally unrelated transported substrates of low-affinity (eg. drugs, metabolites). Our results complement in vitro transport studies and provide direct evidence that OCT1—which is normally expressed in liver and other tissues—interacts with prostaglandin analogs. While it is not entirely clear from the published literature whether OCTs function as major prostaglandin transporters, the tight binding of the naturally occurring PGE2, as well as the slow dissociation rate, could conceivably affect the transport of lower affinity substrates such as drugs and metabolites by SLC22 transporters. More research is necessary to establish the extent to which individual SLC22 family members actually function as PG transporters in vitro and in vivo and to investigate whether PGs can, independent of being directly transported, alter the ability of SLC22 transporters to handle drugs and other substrates. 相似文献

The action potential, once triggered in ventricular or atrial myocytes, automatically proceeds on its time course or is generated spontaneously in sinoatrial node pacemaker cells. It is induced by complex interactions among such cellular components as ion channels, transporters, intracellular ion concentrations, and signaling molecules. We have developed what is, to our knowledge, a new method using a mathematical model to quantify the contribution of each cellular component to the automatic time courses of the action potential. In this method, an equilibrium value, which the membrane potential is approaching at a given moment, is calculated along the time course of the membrane potential. The calculation itself is based on the time-varying conductance and the reversal potentials of individual ion channels and electrogenic ion transporters. Since the equilibrium potential moves in advance of the membrane potential change, we refer to it as the lead potential, VL. The contribution of an individual current was successfully quantified by comparing dVL/dt before and after fixing the time-dependent change of a component of interest, such as the variations in the open probability of a channel or the turnover rate of an ion transporter. In addition to the action potential, the lead-potential analysis should also be applicable in all types of membrane excitation in many different kinds of cells. 相似文献

We have used ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) to quantify ion fluxes across giant membrane patches by measuring and simulating ion gradients on both membrane sides. Experimental conditions are selected with low concentrations of the ions detected on the membrane side being monitored. For detection from the cytoplasmic (bath) side, the patch pipette is oscillated laterally in front of an ISE. For detection on the extracellular (pipette) side, ISEs are fabricated from flexible quartz capillary tubing (tip diameters, 2-3 microns), and an ISE is positioned carefully within the patch pipette with the tip at a controlled distance from the mouth of the patch pipette. Transport activity is then manipulated by solution changes on the cytoplasmic side. Ion fluxes can be quantified by simulating the ion gradients with appropriate diffusion models. For extracellular (intrapatch pipette) recordings, ion diffusion coefficients can be determined from the time courses of concentration changes. The sensitivity and utility of the methods are demonstrated with cardiac membrane patches by measuring (a) potassium fluxes via ion channels, valinomycin, and Na/K pumps; (b) calcium fluxes mediated by Na/Ca exchangers; (c) sodium fluxes mediated by gramicidin and Na/K pumps; and (d) proton fluxes mediated by an unknown electrogenic mechanism. The potassium flux-to-current ratio for the Na/K pump is approximately twice that determined for potassium channels and valinomycin, as expected for a 3Na/2K pump stoichiometery (i.e., 2K/charge moved). For valinomycin-mediated potassium currents and gramicidin-mediated sodium currents, the ion fluxes calculated from diffusion models are typically 10-15% smaller than expected from the membrane currents. As presently implemented, the ISE methods allow reliable detection of calcium and proton fluxes equivalent to monovalent cation currents <1 pA in magnitude, and they allow detection of sodium and potassium fluxes equivalent to <5 pA currents. The capability to monitor ion fluxes, independent of membrane currents, should facilitate studies of both electrogenic and electroneutral ion-coupled transporters in giant patches. 相似文献

Recently, we showed that at constant extracellular osmolarity, the volume of NG108-15 cells was dependent on the external NaCl concentration and we assumed that the responsible mechanism was mediated by background channels (Rouzaire-Dubois et al. 1999). In order to confirm this view, the mean cell volume and the background current of NG108-15 cells were measured under different experimental conditions, after blockade of specific volume regulating mechanisms and ion channels. When the external NaCl concentration was decreased, the reversal potential of the background current was shifted toward negative values and the membrane conductance decreased. Opposite effects were observed when the NaCl concentration was increased. Substitution of external Na+ with various monovalent cations altered the mean cell volume by: Rb+, +17%; Cs+, +15%; K+, +10%; Li+, -6%; choline, -9%; N-methylglucamine, -25% . The reversal potential of the background current and the membrane conductance were altered by these Na+ substitutes in such a way that the cell volume increased linearly with the background current at -60 mV. Substitution of external Cl- with various monovalent anions altered the mean cell volume by: I-, +4%; Br-, 0%; NO-, -3%; F-, -5%; isethionate, -30%; gluconate, -50%. Cl- substitutes did not significantly alter the background current at -60 mV, except F- which increased it by 39%. These results suggest that 1. the cell volume is dependent on ion fluxes through background channels; 2. electrogenic cation fluxes are larger than anionic ones and the background current is proportional to the difference between these fluxes; 3. whereas external cations do not interfere with anion fluxes, external anions alter cation fluxes. 相似文献

1. It seems first of all clear from our results that the effect of electrolytes upon electrophoretic charge is essentially the same, whether one is dealing with silica dust, bacteria, or yeast cells, although certain quantitative differences appear which will later be discussed. 2. The normal negative charge on the suspended particles appears to be slightly increased by very low concentrations of electrolytes, markedly so in the case of yeast cells. Increase in charge due to minimal concentrations of electrolytes has been recorded by Loeb (1922) for collodion particles. 3. Higher concentrations of electrolytes cause a marked and progressive decrease in negative charge, sometimes leading to an isopotential condition and sometimes to a complete reversal of charge with active migration toward the cathode. This effect is apparently due to the cation alone and increases with the valency of the cation, except that the H ion shows specially marked activity, between that of bivalent and trivalent ions. Since NaOH behaves like an ordinary univalent salt, increased alkalinity of a solution does not further depress the charge already depressed by salts; but, since the H ion is much more active than other univalent or bivalent ions, increased acidity does cause a further progressive depression of charge, even in salt solutions. Certain electrolytes appear to show individual peculiarities due to something else than their valency. Thus KCl for example is distinctly more effective than NaCl. Sodium chloride in general appears to exert less influence upon electrophoretic charge, either in low or high dilution, than do other compounds of univalent ions studied. This depressing effect of moderately high concentrations of electrolytes is much less marked with yeast cells than with Bacterium coli. Silica dust is still less affected by monovalent and bivalent ions than are the yeast cells but appears to be more affected than either yeast or Bacterium coli by AlCl3. 4. Very high concentrations of AlCl3 (above 10–2
M) show a third effect, a decrease of the positive charge produced by concentrations of moderate molar strength. This is analogous to phenomena observed for trivalent salts by Northrop and De Kruif (1921–22) and for acid by Winslow, Falk, and Caulfield (1923–24). 5. Organic substances, such as glucose, glycerol, and saponin produce no effect on electrophoretic velocity until they reach a concentration at which viscosity changes are involved. 6. The first two results observed,—(a) the increase in charge as a result of slight additions of electrolytes, and (b) the marked decrease in charge with further concentration of electrolytes, depending on the valency of the cation, so far as vegetable cells are concerned, are entirely in accord with the theory of the Donnan equilibrium as worked out by Loeb (1922). We might assume in explaining such phenomena that the plant cell contains a certain proportion of unbound protein material and that the first modicum of cation which enters the cell is bound by the protein, leading to an increase in the relative negative charge of the cell as compared with its menstruum, while subsequent increments of cation remain unbound in the cell and thus lower its charge. When we find, however, that the same phenomena are apparent with collodion particles, as shown by Loeb, and with silica dust, it seems difficult to apply such a theory, involving the conceptions of a permeable membrane and unbound organic compounds. Loeb (1923–24) suggests that the primary increase may be due to an aggregation of anions in the part of the electrical double layer adjacent to the suspended particles; but why there should be first an aggregation of anions and later (with increasing concentration) an aggregation of cations, is not easy to conceive. The third result,—the reversion to a more negative charge in the presence of a marked excess of trivalent ions,—is again difficult to explain. Loeb, in this connection, postulates the existence of complex ion-protein compounds, which can scarcely be assumed in the case of the silica particles. 相似文献

Inducible and specific ion fluxes on plasma membranes represent very early events during elicitation of plant cells. The hierarchy of such ion fluxes involved is still unknown. The effect of Phytophthora sojae-derived beta-glucan elicitors on the plasma membrane potential as well as on surface K+, Ca2+, and H+ fluxes has been investigated on soybean roots using ion-selective microelectrodes. Beta-Glucans with different degrees of polymerization transiently depolarized the plasma membrane. The elicitor concentration necessary for half-maximal depolarization closely resembled the corresponding binding affinities of soybean root membranes toward the respective beta-glucans. Upon repeated elicitor treatment, the root cells responded partially refractory, suggesting a complex responsiveness of the system. Within the root hair space, characteristic decreasing K(+)- and Ca(2+)-free concentrations were induced by the elicitors, probably causing depolarization through the influx of positive charges. Whereas K+ fluxes were inverted after passing the K+ equilibrium (Nernst-) potential, Ca2+ influx continued. No anion fluxes sufficient to account for charge compensation were observed under the same experimental conditions. K+ and Ca2+ fluxes as well as depolarization were inhibited by 100 microM or less of the Ca2+ antagonist La3+. Contrasting other systems, in soybean the main cause for elicitor-induced plasma membrane depolarization is the activation of cation instead of anion fluxes. 相似文献

If a polyhalide concentration gradient exists across a bilayer lipid membrane (BLM), ion pair movement occurs. The term ion pair indicates a lipid soluble complex of cation and anion with stoichiometry dictated by the respective charges. In a mixture of metal halide (MXn, X = I, Cl, Br) and iodine, the ion pair is of the form M(I2X)n. The flux of ion pairs was monitored by measuring the flow of metal ions or polyhalide ions across the BLM. The flux of ion pairs across the BLM depended on cation crystal radius, fluidity of the membrane, strength of the ion pair complex and on the osmotic gradient (i.e., there exists a coupling between water and ion pair fluxes). The relationship between ion pairing and the electrical conductivity of BLM is briefly discussed. 相似文献

We tested five hypotheses regarding the potential effects of precipitation change on spatial and temporal patterns of water flux, ion flux, and ion concentration in a semiarid, snowmelt-dominated forest in Little Valley, Nevada. Variations in data collected from 1995 to 1999 were used to examine the potential effects of snowpack amount and duration on ion concentrations and fluxes. Soil solution NO3
–, NH4
+, and ortho-phosphate concentrations and fluxes were uniformly low, and the variations in concentration bore no relationship to snowmelt water flux inputs of these ions. Weathering and cation exchange largely controlled the concentrations and fluxes of base cations from soils in these systems; however, soil solution base cation concentrations were affected by cation concentrations during snowmelt episodes. Soil solution Cl– and SO4
2– concentrations closely followed the patterns in snowmelt water, suggesting minimal buffering of either ion by soils. In contrast to other studies, the highest concentration and the majority of ion flux from the snowpack in Little Valley occurred in the later phases of snowmelt. Possible reasons for this include sublimation of the snowpack and dry deposition of organic matter during the later stages of snowmelt. Our comparison of interannual and spatial patterns revealed that variation in ion concentration rather than water flux is the most important driver of variation in ion flux. Thus, it is not safe to assume that changes in total precipitation amount will cause concomitant changes in ion inputs to this system. 相似文献
