1. Vasopressin induces a rapid increase in water permeability and stimulates net sodium transport in responsive epithelia through the mediation of cAMP. 2. In amphibian urinary bladder, the increase in water permeability is dependent on an intact cytoskeleton and is associated with the exocytotic insertion of tubular vesicles containing particle aggregates (the putative water channels) into the apical membrane of the granular epithelial cells. 3. In the toad bladder, mucosal addition of NEM, 0.1 mM, elicits a slow and irreversible increase in transepithelial water flow, whilst decreasing net sodium transport. 4. The hydrosmotic response to mucosal NEM is inhibited by cellular acidification, by pretreatment with cytoskeleton-disruptive drugs, and by agents that increase cytosolic calcium. 5. Mucosal NEM potentiates the hydrosmotic response to a submaximal, but not a maximal, dose of vasopressin. 6. Mucosal NEM, like vasopressin, induces both vesicle fusion and the appearance of particle aggregates at the granular cell apical surface. 7. NEM, unlike vasopressin, does not increase cellular cAMP content. 8. Mucosal NEM appears to increase transcellular water flow by activating cellular processes normally triggered by vasopressin, at a step beyond cAMP. 相似文献

In certain epithelial tissues, water permeability is markedly increased by antidiuretic hormone. This so-called hydrosmotic effect has been shown to be mediated by 3'-5' cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which, in turn, alters the permeability o the luminal membrane of receptor cells. This review deals wity ultrastructural alterations occurring in the membrane, as observed with freeze-fracture electron microscopy. Basically, these alterations consist of organized particle aggregates which appear in the apical membrane. In all experimental conditions, similar aggregates can be observed in the membrane of cytoplasmic vesicles. ADH stimulation triggers the fusion of these vesicles with the apical membrane resulting in the concomitant transfer of particle aggregates. It has been shown, in a wide range of experimental conditions, that both number and total area of the aggregates are directly proportional to the water permeability of the tissue. It is generally assumed that particle aggregates contain transmembrane channels that are selectively to water. 相似文献

Vasopressin affects a variety of cell systems. This review is focused on permeability changes induced by vasopressin in tight epithelia such as the collecting duct of the mammalian kidney and the skin and the bladder of anurans. These vasopressin effects are discussed with reference to current concepts and models of the microstructure of the plasma membrane. The transport of three major chemical species--Na, urea and water--is analyzed. In each instance, the hormone appears to activate selective membrane pathways situated at the rat-limiting barrier of the epithelium, i.e., the apical membrane. Available data suggest that two intra-cellular messengers -- cAMP and calcium -- plan a key role in the coupling between stimulus (receptor occupancy) and biological effect (permeability change). The enhancement of Na transport (natriferic effect) depends on the opening and/or the insertion of Na channels, the biophysical and biochemical characteristics of which have been investigated by fluctuation analysis and by means of several chemical blockers of Na transport, particularly the amiloride molecule and its congeners. Likewise, the finding of inhibitors and activators of urea transport, which do not cause any appreciable change in Na or water permeability, led to the notion of selective urea channels or pores. Finally, the enhancement of water transport (hydrosmotic effect) possibly results from the insertion in the apical membrane of water channels already present in vesicular cytoplasmic structures. The restructuring of the apical membrane underlying the transition from a low to a higher state of water permeability is very likely related to the appearance of intramembrane particle aggregates detectable with the freeze-fracture technique in epithelia exposed to vasopressin. The putative water channels (or pores) appear to be so narrow that trans-apical water movement is constrained to single-file diffusion. Recent data also suggest that, in addition to cAMP, microtubules and microfilaments, the calmodulin-Ca complex is a major element in the hydrosmotic effect of vasopressin. 相似文献

Summary It has been suggested that during the oxytocin-induced hydrosmotic response, water crosses the luminal membrane of urinary bladder epithelium cells through membranespanning proteins. Although specific inhibitors of osmotic water transport have not been found, certain sulfhydryl reagents such as mercurial compounds may help to identify the proteins involved in this permeation process. We tested the effects ofp-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate (PCMBS) and of fluoresceinmercuric acetate (FMA) on the net water flux, the microtubule and microfilament structures of the frog urinary bladder, and the distribution of intramembrane particle aggregates in the luminal membrane.We observed that: (i) 5mm PCMBS at pH 5 and 0.5mm FMA at pH 8 added to the mucosal bath at the maximum of the response to oxytocin partially inhibited the net water flux. Inhibition then increased progressively when the preparation was repeatedly or continuously stimulated, until it reached a maximal inhibition at 120 min. This inhibition was not reversed even when cystein was added in the mucosal bath. PCMBS and FMA effects were also observed when cyclic AMP (3,5 cyclic adenosine monophosphate) was used to increase water permeability. (ii) PCMBS mucosal pretreatment did not modify the basal water flux but potentiated the inhibitory effect of PCMBS or FMA on the hydrosmotic response to oxytocin. (iii) Microtubule and microfilament network, visualized in target cells by immunofluorescence, was not affected by PCMBS. (iv) The maximal PCMBS or FMA inhibition was not associated with a reduction of aggregate surface area in the apical membrane.The persistence of the intramembrane particle aggregates associated with the oxytocin-induced hydrosmotic response during the net water flux inhibition by PCMBS, suggests that the PCMBS effect occurs possibly at the level of sulfhydryl groups of the water channel itself. 相似文献

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) stimulation increases the apical membrane water permeability of granular cells in toad urinary bladder. This response correlates closely with the fusion of tubular cytoplasmic vesicles with the membrane and delivery of intramembrane particle (IMP) aggregates from the tubules (aggrephores) to the apical membrane. These aggregates are believed to be associated with the channels responsible for the water permeability increase. Removal of ADH triggers apical membrane endocytosis and disappearance of aggregates from the apical membrane. However, it has been unclear whether aggregate disappearance is due to disassembly of aggregates within the apical membrane or to their endocytic retrieval as intact structures. Using colloidal gold and horseradish peroxidase to follow endocytosis from the apical surface after ADH removal, we have directly observed in cross-fractured bladder cells the intramembrane structure of intracellular vesicles that contain these fluid-phase markers. Under these conditions, intact aggregates can be identified in the membrane of tubular endocytosed vesicles. This directly demonstrates that conditions which lower apical membrane water permeability cause the tubular aggrephores to "shuttle" intact aggregates from the apical membrane back into the cytoplasm. An additional population of vesicles with tracer are found which are spherical and display structural features of the apical membrane, as well as occasional aggregates. These vesicles may be responsible for retrieval of aggregates from the surface apical membrane. 相似文献

Freeze-fracture electron microscopy of the toad urinary bladder indicates that distinctive intramembrane particle aggregates are responsible for the increase in apical membrane water permeability that occurs with vasopressin (VP) stimulation. In unstimulated bladders the aggregates occur in the cytoplasm of the cells in tubular membrane structures now called aggrephores. After stimulation by VP, aggrephores are shuttled to the surface and fuse with the apical membrane. It is suggested by structural observations and by measurements of membrane capacitance that the area of aggregates inserted into the apical membrane is much greater than previously suspected because many aggregates remain in the wall of the fused aggrephores. The area of the aggregates in a stimulated bladder is sufficiently large for these structures to represent an organized array of water channels that mediates the change in apical membrane permeability. Work with antibodies supports the concept that these channels are not always resident in the apical membrane but become inserted only after stimulation by the hormone VP. 相似文献

Summary The fine structure of ADH-induced intramembrane particle aggregates has been studied in different tissues and under different experimental conditions. Particle aggregates similar to those previously observed in the amphibian urinary bladder and in the mammalian collecting duct were also found in the frog skin, another ADH target tissue. In the frog urinary bladder, typical aggregates were observed in the absence of glutaraldehyde fixation. Two experimental approaches were used a) the absence of both fixative and cryoprotectant treatments and b) the absence of only glutaraldehyde treatment. In the latter case the reversal of hydrosmotic action was prevented by exposing the preparations to N-ethyl maleimide. In specimens of frog urinary bladder conventionally fixed with glutaraldehyde, two fracture levels could be observed in the aggregates, suggesting that the aggregated particles span an appreciable part of the membrane thickness.J.

Electron and confocal microscopy, using immunocytochemical methods, was employed to assess osmotic water permeability of the frog (Rana temporaria) urinary bladder during transcellular water transport, induced by antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or by wash-out of autacoids from serosal, ADH-free Ringer solution. The increase of osmotic water permeability of the urinary bladder was accompanied by relevant ultrastructural changes, the most remarkable being: (1) the appearance of aggregates of intramembranous particles in the apical membrane of granular cells, and the extent of the membrane area covered by the aggregates proportional to that of the water flow; (2) redistribution of actin filaments in the cytoplasm of granular cells; judging from the anti-actin label density, the number of actin filaments in the apical region of cytoplasm was reduced by 2.5–4 times compared with normal; (3) a decrease in the total electron density of the cytoplasm due to the increased water content of granular cells. 相似文献

The urinary bladder of the aquatic toad Xenopus laevis is known to exhibit a low permeability to water and a poor sensitivity to antidiuretic hormone. In order to precise the characteristics and the specific cellular mechanisms of this reduced hydroosmotic response we used a sensitive volumetric technique to monitor net water flow and studied the correlation between the anti-diuretic hormone (ADH)-induced net water flow and the fine ultrastructural appearence of the urinary bladder epithelium. Transmural net water flow was entirely dependent on the osmotic gradient across the preparation and not on the hydrostatic pressure difference. We observed the existence of a low but significant hydro-osmotic response to arginine vasopressin. Freeze-fracture electron microscopy demonstrated the presence of typical aggrephores in the subapical cytoplasm. The response to the hormone was accompanied by the appearance of typical intramembrane aggregates into the apical plasma membrane. Water permeability increase and apical aggregate insertion were both slowly but fully reversible. Except for the multilayered structure of the epithelium and the particularly low response to antidiuretic hormone, all the studied permeability and ultrastructural characteristics of the bladder were thus very similar to those observed in other sensitive epithelia such as the amphibian bladder and skin and the mammalian collecting duct which exhibit a high hydro-osmotic response to the hormone. 相似文献

Simultaneous studies were performed on changes in water permeability and on the ultrastructural organization of the frog urinary bladder epithelium in the presence of Co-ions under vasopressin-stimulated water flow. A possible inhibition of the vasopressin-stimulated water flows by Co-ions is supposed from the extracellular surface of the apical membrane of granular cells responsible for water permeability of this epithelium. Using the freeze-fracture technique for studying the apical membrane ultrastructure, it was shown that with the maximum water flow the square occupied by intramembrane particle aggregates was as much as 1.8% of the total square of membranes, to reduce to 0.3% with the smaller water flow, the average sizes of aggregates being 0.35 mkm and 0.08 mkm in both these cases, respectively. Application of 1 x 10(-3)-1 x 10(-4) M CoCl2 from the mucose part inhibits the vasopressin-stimulated water flow. In this case no aggregates are actually seen on the P-face of the apical membrane, the number of intramembrane particles of the E-face being similar to that when the water permeability was originally low. It is concluded that Co-ion may influence the structure and function of the apical plasma membrane from its extracellular surface. 相似文献

Summary Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) increases the apical (external facing) membrane water permeability of granular cells that line the toad urinary bladder. In response to ADH, cytoplasmic vesicles called aggrephores fuse with the apical plasma membrane and insert particle aggregates which are visualized by freeze-fracture electron microscopy. Aggrephores contain particle aggregates within their limiting membranes. It is generally accepted that particle aggregates are or are related to water channels. High rates of transepithelial water flow during ADH stimulation and subsequent hormone removal decrease water permeability and cause the endocytosis of apical membrane and aggrephores which retrieve particle aggregates. We loaded the particle aggregate-rich endocytic vesicles with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) during ADH stimulation and removal. Epithelial cells were isolated and homogenized, and a subcellular fraction was enriched for sequestered HRP obtained. The HRP-enriched membrane fraction was subjected to a density shifting maneuver (Courtoy et al.,J. Cell Biol.
98:870, 1984), which yielded a purified membrane fraction containing vesicles with entrapped HRP. The density shifted vesicles were composed of approximately 20 proteins including prominent species of 55, 17 and 7 kD. Proteins of these molecular weights appear on the apical surface of ADH-stimulated bladders, but not the apical surface of control bladders. Therefore, we believe these density shifted vesicles contain proteins involved in the ADH-stimulated water permeability response, possibly components of particle aggregates and/or water channels. 相似文献

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) induces, in the apical plasma membrane of target cells, the insertion of intramembranous particle aggregates that probably contain water channels. A mild attack of this membrane by a polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl detergent, which reversibly depressed ADH-induced water permeability, has been found to modify aggregate structure while extracting additional proteins. This simple procedure could be a valuable approach to the problem of aggregate isolation and characterization. 相似文献

Summary The hydrosmotic salt effect (HSE), the reversible dependence of skin osmotic water permeability upon the ionic concentration of the outer bathing solution, is known to induce the appearance of sucrose-impermeable pathways in the apical membrane of the outermost epithelial cell layer. Diffusional14C-urea permeability, measured in theJ
v=0 condition to prevent solvent drag effects, indicates that the newly formed pathways induced by HSE are narrower than the size of the urea molecule, being therefore highly selective for water molecules. After mild glutaraldehyde (2% solution) fixation of the apical membrane structures, the water channels induced by the HSE are no longer affected by the ionic strength of the outer solution. This indicates that the channel-forming membrane protein can be fixed in different configurations with the water channels in the open or closed states.Escola Paulista de Medicina, Department of Biophysics. 相似文献

Summary Unstirred layers of water complicate the measurement of water permeability across epithelia. In the toad urinary bladder, the hormone vasopressin increases the osmotic water permeability of the granular epithelial cell's luminal membrane, and also leads to the appearance of aggregates of particles within this membrane. The aggregates appear to be markers for luminal membrane osmotic water permeability. This report analyzes the relationship between transbladder osmotic water flow and aggregate frequency, and demonstrates that flow across the bladder is significantly attenuated by unstirred layers of water or by structural barriers other than the luminal membrane when the luminal membrane is made permeable by vasopressin. This analysis in addition yields unique values for the permeabilities of both the luminal membrane and the barriers to water flow which lie in series with it. 相似文献

Isoproterenol-induced intramembrane particle aggregation and water flux in toad epidermis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Stimulation of toad skin with isproterenol resulted in a dramatic increase in water flow, and in the appearance of aggregates of intramembrane particles in the apical membrane of granular cells of the replacement layer, just beneath the stratum corneum. This membrane structural modification appears to be a general prerequisite for the change in water permeability of vasopressin-sensitive epithelia. 相似文献

Several experimental conditions such as antidiuretic hormone (ADH) challenge, apical treatment with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), and mechanical stretching of the tissue are known to increase the insertion of intramembrane particle aggregates and/or granule exocytosis at the apical border of epithelial cells of amphibian urinary bladders. A constant release of 2 peptides of 76 and 14 kDa apparent molecular mass, respectively, was associated with these treatments. The localization of these 2 polypeptides was assessed by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy immunocytochemistry using fluorescent, peroxidase, and colloidal gold probes. The 76 kDa polypeptide appeared to be associated with the cell coat and with the granule content which is released at the apical cell surface. The 14 kDa peptide was also found in the cell coat, and postembedding immunocytochemistry indicates its presence in cytoplasmic subapical vesicles (aggrephores and/or granules). The migration of these 76 and 14 kDa polypeptides in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was modified neither by a treatment at 90 degrees C, nor by the presence or absence of calcium in the medium. Treatment with EGTA did not modify the fluorescence emission of the two peptides and, consequently, they are probably not among the major calcium binding proteins. The addition to the mucosal medium of the stretch extract or of antibodies raised against the 76 and 14 kDa peptides did not modify ADH-induced water permeability. However, a significant decrease of the hydrosmotic response to ADH occurred in subsequent stimulation-washout cycles when the anti-14 kDa peptide antiserum was applied to the mucosal bath. When the bladders were incubated with a stretch extract, we observed a slight alteration of the short-circuit current (Isc), an increase of the basal Na+ transport, and a decrease of the maximal Isc in response to ADH. The 76 kDa protein, released in the apical medium, could play a protective role in the cellular plasma membrane and could participate in the formation of the thick cell coat lining the apical membrane of the granular cells. The 14 kDa protein might be one of the proteins associated with the aggregates, but further studies will be necessary to clarify its exact role in the ADH-induced permeability modifications observed in amphibian urinary bladders. 相似文献

The water permeability of collecting ducts is greatly increased by the antidiuretic hormone, vasopressin (VP). Freeze-fracture studies were carried out to test if this permeability increase is associated with the appearance of intramembrane particle (IMP) aggregates and whether increased doses of VP lead to an increase in the number and size of particle aggregates in the luminal membrane of principal cells in the isolated cortical collecting duct. Unstimulated cells expressed 17 +/- 6.5 particle aggregates per 100 microns 2. Stimulation with VP at concentrations of 20 or 200 microU/ml increased the number of particle aggregates significantly to 129 +/- 15.8 and 324 +/- 45.8, respectively. The size of the particle aggregates increased from 0.0012 microns 2 under control conditions to 0.025 microns 2 at 20 microU/ml VP and to 0.063 microns 2 at 200 microU/ml VP. In addition, the total area occupied by the IMP increased from 0.02 microns 2/100 microns 2 (controls) to 3.17% and 20.38% (after 20 and 200 microU ADH/ml, respectively). Particle aggregates were also observed in the luminal plasma membrane of isolated collecting ducts fixed immediately after dissection, resembling the in vivo status. These results demonstrate that a dose-dependent relationship exists between the concentration of the applied VP and the number of particle aggregates, as well as the size of the aggregates. Cytoplasmic tubular vesicles in fusion with the apical membrane were observed. 相似文献

Although it is well accepted that vasopressin (ADH) increases the permeability to water of the toad bladder granular cell's luminal membrane, recent studies have suggested that regulation also takes place at an additional "postluminal" site within the epithelial granular cell. These studies are based upon the observation that a number of experimental maneuvers can alter tissue permeability to water, but do not change the number of particle aggregates observed on the protoplasmic face of the granular cell's luminal membrane with freeze-fracture electron microscopy. These aggregates are believed by many investigators to mediate the transport of water across the luminal membrane. The dissociation between permeability and aggregate frequency described above has been variously interpreted as the consequence of changes in the permeability of the aggregates themselves, or of changes in the permeability of a "postluminal" barrier that is functionally in series with the luminal membrane. We attempted to distinguish between these 2 possibilities by studying paired toad bladders during 3 protocols that alter vasopressin-stimulated water flow across the intact tissue without altering aggregate frequency. Estimates of the permeability of postluminal barriers were obtained by exposing the luminal surface to amphotericin B, an antibiotic that forms water-permeant channels in the luminal membrane. Of the 3 protocols, only diminishing bladder filling volume decreased the water flow elicited by luminal amphotericin B, suggesting that only that protocol indeed decreased the permeability of some postluminal barrier. The other 2 protocols, increasing PCO2 and repeatedly stimulating the bladder with vasopressin, did not alter amphotericin B-elicited flow, suggesting that postluminal barriers were not altered by these 2 protocols.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Sulfhydryl (SH) reactive reagents, such as eosin derivatives, have been found to be useful in labeling water pathways in red cells. In the present study we used an impermeable SH-reagent, a fluorescent maleimide analogue EMA (eosin-5'-maleimide), in order to identify proteins involved in water permeability response to antidiuretic hormone (ADH). We observed that: 1) EMA (1 mM) mucosal pretreatment did not modify either the basal water flux or the subsequent ADH-induced hydrosmotic response; 2) EMA added to the mucosal bath at the maximum response to ADH, significantly decreased net water flux by about 40%; similar results were obtained when 10(-5) M forskolin was used as a hydrosmotic agent. These results suggest that the inhibitory effect of EMA occurs at a post cAMP step, possibly at the level of the sulfhydryl groups of the water channels themselves. Fluorescence distribution in SDS-PAGE of Triton X-100 extracted proteins from bladder labeled with EMA in both control conditions and under ADH stimulation allowed us to identify apical membrane proteins, labeled during ADH stimulation and not labeled in water impermeable controls. Of particular importance are four proteins of 52, 32-35, 26, 17, kDa. These polypeptides are probably involved in ADH-stimulated water transport and may be components of the water channels. 相似文献

The polyene antibiotic filipin has been used to characterize the cholesterol distribution in the membranes of resting and ADH-stimulated frog urinary bladder in freeze-fracture replicas. In general, the intracellular membranes takes up filipin only insignificantly. An exception is the cholesterol rich granule membrane. Both density and polarity of filipin-induced deformations were evaluated, and the asymmetry in membrane cholesterol was analysed. Upon ADH-stimulation of water flow both density and polarity of filipin-induced deformations altered differently in apical and basolateral regions of the plasma membrane. This difference is presumably due to the stretching of the basolateral membrane as a result of swelling, on the one hand, and to incorporation of aggregate containing membranes into the apical membrane, on the other one. The results obtained may suggest that the appearance of ADH-induced intramembranous particle aggregates in the apical membrane be accompanied with a relative cholesterol decrease in this apical membrane. 相似文献
