Regulatory volume decrease in alveolar macrophages: cation loss is not correlated with changes in membrane recycling 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Alveolar macrophages regain their normal volume after swelling in hypo-osmotic solutions. This process, termed regulatory volume decrease (RVD), is initiated 3-5 minutes after exposure of cells to hypo-osmotic solutions, and by 30 min, near-normal volumes are attained. Volume decrease does not occur at 0 degrees C or in solutions in which Na+ has been replaced by K+, or Cl- by the impermeant anion gluconate. These results, as well as direct measurement of intracellular cations, indicate that decreases in cell volume result primarily from the loss of K+ and Cl- and are similar to RVD in lymphocytes. Kinetic analysis of cation loss, both by directly measuring changes in intracellular cation content and by assaying rubidium efflux, showed that cation loss occurred immediately upon media dilution. The rate of cation loss fit first-order kinetics and preceded both the initiation of volume decrease and the maximum increase in surface receptor number. These results suggest that the cation transporters responsible for RVD are located at the cell surface and that regulation of activity is not dependent on alterations in membrane movement. 相似文献

Human ClC-3 is not the swelling-activated chloride channel involved in cell volume regulation 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

Volume regulation is essential for normal cell function. A key component of the cells' response to volume changes is the activation of a channel, which elicits characteristic chloride currents (I(Cl, Swell)). The molecular identity of this channel has been controversial. Most recently, ClC-3, a protein highly homologous to the ClC-4 and ClC-5 channel proteins, has been proposed as being responsible for I(Cl, Swell). Subsequently, however, other reports have suggested that ClC-3 may generate chloride currents with characteristics clearly distinct from I(Cl, Swell). Significantly different tissue distributions for ClC-3 have also been reported, and it has been suggested that two isoforms of ClC-3 may be expressed with differing functions. In this study we generated a series of cell lines expressing variants of ClC-3 to rigorously address the question of whether or not ClC-3 is responsible for I(Cl, Swell). The data demonstrate that ClC-3 is not responsible for I(Cl, Swell) and has no role in regulatory volume decrease, furthermore, ClC-3 is not activated by intracellular calcium and fails to elicit chloride currents under any conditions tested. Expression of ClC-3 was shown to be relatively tissue-specific, with high levels in the central nervous system and kidney, and in contrast to previous reports, is essentially absent from heart. This distribution is also inconsistent with the previous proposed role in cell volume regulation. 相似文献

Introduction
Elevated serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) has been reported in established osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to determine whether serum levels of hsCRP are associated with the variation in tibial and patella cartilage volumes in women without evidence of OA. 相似文献12.

Background
High urine volume enhances urinary free cortisol (UFF) and cortisone (UFE) excretion rates in normal-weight adults and children. Renal excretion rates of glucocorticoids (GC) and their metabolites are frequently altered in obesity. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether UFF and UFE excretion is also affected by urine volume in severely obese subjects.Experimental
In 24-h urine samples of 59 extremely obese subjects (mean BMI 45.3 ± 8.9 kg/m2) and 20 healthy lean subjects (BMI 22.1 ± 1.8 kg/m2), UFF and UFE, tetrahydrocortisol (THF), 5α-tetrahydrocortisol (5α-THF), and tetrahydrocortisone (THE) were quantified by RIA. The sum of THF, 5α-THF, and THE (GC3), the three major GC metabolites, reflects daily cortisol secretion. 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) activity was assessed by the ratio UFE/UFF. Daily GC excretion rates were corrected for urine creatinine and adjusted for gender and body weight.Results
In extremely obese subjects, urine volume was significantly associated with creatinine-corrected UFE and 11β-HSD2 activity after adjustment for gender and BMI (r = 0.47, p = 0.0002 and r = 0.31, p = 0.02, respectively). However, urine volume was not associated with creatinine-corrected UFF and GC3 (p = 0.4 and p = 0.6, respectively). In lean controls, urine volume was significantly associated with creatinine-corrected UFE and UFF (r = 0.58, p = 0.01 and r = 0.55, p = 0.02, respectively), whereas urine volume was not associated with 11β-HSD2 activity after appropriate adjustment (p = 0.3).Conclusions
In severe obesity, in contrast to normal weight, renal excretion of UFE, but not of UFF is affected by fluid intake. This discrepancy may be due to the increased renal 11β-HSD2 activity in obesity. 相似文献17.
