Sarcolemmal Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) activity is essential for the intracellular pH (pHi) homeostasis in cardiac myocytes. Emerging evidence indicates that sarcolemmal NHE1 dysfunction was closely related to cardiomyocyte death, but it remains unclear whether defective trafficking of NHE1 plays a role in the vital cellular signalling processes. Dynamin (DNM), a large guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase), is best known for its roles in membrane trafficking events. Herein, using co‐immunoprecipitation, cell surface biotinylation and confocal microscopy techniques, we investigated the potential regulation on cardiac NHE1 activity by DNM. We identified that DNM2, a cardiac isoform of DNM, directly binds to NHE1. Overexpression of a wild‐type DNM2 or a dominant‐negative DNM2 mutant with defective GTPase activity in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVMs) facilitated or retarded the internalization of sarcolemmal NHE1, whereby reducing or increasing its activity respectively. Importantly, the increased NHE1 activity associated with DNM2 deficiency led to ARVMs apoptosis, as demonstrated by cell viability, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase–mediated dUTP nick‐end labelling assay, Bcl‐1/Bax expression and caspase‐3 activity, which were effectively rescued by pharmacological inhibition of NHE1 with zoniporide. Thus, our results demonstrate that disruption of the DNM2‐dependent retrograde trafficking of NHE1 contributes to cardiomyocyte apoptosis.  相似文献

The mammalian Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) is a ubiquitously expressed membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH in the myocardium and other tissues. NHE1 is an important mediator of myocardial damage that occurs after ischemia–reperfusion injury. It has also been implicated in apoptotic damage in many tissues and its expression and activity are elevated in disease states in the myocardium. In this study, we examined the effect of additional exogenous NHE1 expression on isolated cardiomyocytes susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion damage. Exogenous NHE1 elevated Na+/H+ exchanger expression and activity when introduced into isolated cardiomyocytes through an adenoviral system. Isolated cardiomyocytes were subjected to simulated ischemia and reperfusion after infection with either control or NHE1-containing adenovirus. Cells were placed into an anaerobic chamber and effects of NHE1 expression after hypoxia/reoxygenation were examined. Hypoxia/reoxygenation increased caspase-3-like activity in controls, and the effect was greatly magnified in cells expressing NHE1 protein. It also elevated the percentage of apoptotic cardiomyocytes, which was also aggravated by expression of NHE1 protein. Hypoxia/reoxygenation also increased phospho-ERK levels. Elevated NHE1 expression was coincidental with increased expression of the ER stress protein, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and calreticulin (CRT). Our results demonstrate that increased NHE1 protein expression makes cells more susceptible to damage induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation in isolated cardiomyocytes. They suggest that elevated NHE1 in cardiovascular disease could predispose the human myocardium to enhanced apoptotic damage.  相似文献

Acid‐extrusion by active transport is important in metabolically active cancer cells, where it removes excess intracellular acid and sets the intracellular resting pH. Hypoxia is a major trigger of adaptive responses in cancer, but its effect on acid‐extrusion remains unclear. We studied pH‐regulation under normoxia and hypoxia in eight cancer cell‐lines (HCT116, RT112, MDA‐MB‐468, MCF10A, HT29, HT1080, MiaPaca2, HeLa) using the pH‐sensitive fluorophore, cSNARF‐1. Hypoxia responses were triggered by pre‐incubation in low O2 or with the 2‐oxoglutarate‐dependent dioxygenase inhibitor dimethyloxalylglycine (DMOG). By selective pharmacological inhibition or transport‐substrate removal, acid‐extrusion flux was dissected into components due to Na+/H+ exchange (NHE) and Na+‐dependent HCO transport. In half of the cell‐lines (HCT116, RT112, MDA‐MB‐468, MCF10A), acid‐extrusion on NHE was the dominant flux during an acid load, and in all of these, bar one (MDA‐MB‐468), NHE‐flux was reduced following hypoxic incubation. Further studies in HCT116 cells showed that <4‐h hypoxic incubation reduced NHE‐flux reversibly with a time‐constant of 1–2 h. This was not associated with a change in expression of NHE1, the principal NHE isoform. Following 48‐h hypoxia, inhibition of NHE‐flux persisted but became only slowly reversible and associated with reduced expression of the glycosylated form of NHE1. Acid‐extrusion by Na+‐dependent HCO transport was hypoxia‐insensitive and comparable in all cell lines. This constitutive and stable element of pH‐regulation was found to be important for setting and stabilizing resting pH at a mildly alkaline level (conducive for growth), irrespective of oxygenation status. In contrast, the more variable flux on NHE underlies cell‐specific differences in their dynamic response to larger acid loads. J. Cell.

This study addresses the mechanisms of oxygen-induced regulation of ion transport pathways in mouse erythrocyte, specifically focusing on the role of cellular redox state and ATP levels. Mouse erythrocytes possess Na+/K+ pump, K+-Cl and Na+-K+-2Cl cotransporters that have been shown to be potential targets of oxygen. The activity of neither cotransporter changed in response to hypoxia-reoxygenation. In contrast, the Na+/K+ pump responded to hypoxic treatment with reversible inhibition. Hypoxia-induced inhibition was abolished in Na+-loaded cells, revealing no effect of O2 on the maximal operation rate of the pump. Notably, the inhibitory effect of hypoxia was not followed by changes in cellular ATP levels. Hypoxic exposure did, however, lead to a rapid increase in cellular glutathione (GSH) levels. Decreasing GSH to normoxic levels under hypoxic conditions abolished hypoxia-induced inhibition of the pump. Furthermore, GSH added to the incubation medium was able to mimic hypoxia-induced inhibition. Taken together these data suggest a pivotal role of intracellular GSH in oxygen-induced modulation of the Na+/K+ pump activity.  相似文献

Hypoxia ischemia (HI)-related brain injury is the major cause of long-term morbidity in neonates. One characteristic hallmark of neonatal HI is the development of reactive astrogliosis in the hippocampus. However, the impact of reactive astrogliosis in hippocampal damage after neonatal HI is not fully understood. In the current study, we investigated the role of Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) protein in mouse reactive hippocampal astrocyte function in an in vitro ischemia model (oxygen/glucose deprivation and reoxygenation, OGD/REOX). 2 h OGD significantly increased NHE1 protein expression and NHE1-mediated H+ efflux in hippocampal astrocytes. NHE1 activity remained stimulated during 1–5 h REOX and returned to the basal level at 24 h REOX. NHE1 activation in hippocampal astrocytes resulted in intracellular Na+ and Ca2+ overload. The latter was mediated by reversal of Na+/Ca2+ exchange. Hippocampal astrocytes also exhibited a robust release of gliotransmitters (glutamate and pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNFα) during 1–24 h REOX. Interestingly, inhibition of NHE1 activity with its potent inhibitor HOE 642 not only reduced Na+ overload but also gliotransmitter release from hippocampal astrocytes. The noncompetitive excitatory amino acid transporter inhibitor TBOA showed a similar effect on blocking the glutamate release. Taken together, we concluded that NHE1 plays an essential role in maintaining H+ homeostasis in hippocampal astrocytes. Over-stimulation of NHE1 activity following in vitro ischemia disrupts Na+ and Ca2+ homeostasis, which reduces Na+-dependent glutamate uptake and promotes release of glutamate and cytokines from reactive astrocytes. Therefore, blocking sustained NHE1 activation in reactive astrocytes may provide neuroprotection following HI.  相似文献

The mammalian Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) is a ubiquitously expressed pH-regulatory membrane protein that functions in the myocardium and other tissues. It is an important mediator of the myocardial damage that occurs after ischemia-reperfusion injury and is implicated in heart hypertrophy. Regulation of NHE1 has been proposed as a therapeutic target for cardioprotection. We therefore examined mechanisms of control of NHE1 in the myocardium. Several different amino acids have been implicated as a being critical to NHE1 regulation in a number of tissues including Ser703, Ser770, and Ser771. In the myocardium, NHE1 is activated in response to a variety of stimuli including activation by an ERK-dependent sustained intracellular acidosis. In this study, we determined whether Ser703 and p90rsk activity are critical in activation of NHE1 by sustained intracellular acidosis. In vitro phosphorylation of NHE1 C-terminal fusion proteins determined that ERK-dependent phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic region was not dependent on Ser703; however, phosphorylation by p90rsk required Ser703. A Ser703Ala mutation decreased basal NHE1 activity in CHO cells but not in cardiomyocytes. NHE1 with a Ser703Ala mutation was activated in response to sustained intracellular acidosis in CHO cells. In addition, sustained intracellular acidosis also activated the Ser703Ala mutant protein in isolated cardiomyocytes and phosphorylation levels were also increased by acidosis. The presence of a dominant-negative p90rsk kinase also did not prevent activation and phosphorylation of NHE1 by sustained intracellular acidosis in isolated cardiomyocytes. We conclude that Ser703 and p90rsk are not required for activation by sustained intracellular acidosis and that p90rsk phosphorylation of Ser703 is independent of this type of activation.  相似文献

The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) is an integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. In this study we examined the effect of site-specific mutagenesis on the pore-lining amino acid Phe161 and effects of mutagenesis on the charged amino acids Asp159 and Asp172. There was no absolute requirement for a carboxyl side chain at amino acid Asp159 or Asp172. Mutation of Asp159 to Asn or Gln maintained or increased the activity of the protein. Similarly, for Asp172, substitution with a Gln residue maintained activity of the protein, even though substitution with an Asn residue was inhibitory. The Asp172Glu mutant possessed normal activity after correction for its aberrant expression and surface targeting. Replacement of Phe161 with a Leu demonstrated that it was not irreplaceable in NHE1 function. However, the mutation Phe161lys inhibited NHE1 function, while the Phe161Ala mutation caused altered NHE1 targeting and expression levels. Our results show that these three amino acids, while being important in NHE1 function, are not irreplaceable. This study demonstrates that multiple substitutions at a single amino acid residue may be necessary to get a clearer picture membrane protein function.  相似文献

The H+-coupled transporter hPepT1 (SLC15A1) mediates the transport of di/tripeptides and many orally-active drugs across the brush-border membrane of the small intestinal epithelium. Incubation of Caco-2 cell monolayers (15 min) with the dietary phosphodiesterase inhibitors caffeine and theophylline inhibited Gly-Sar uptake across the apical membrane. Pentoxifylline, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor given orally to treat intermittent claudication, also decreased Gly-Sar uptake through a reduction in capacity (Vmax) without any effect on affinity (Km). The reduction in dipeptide transport was dependent upon both extracellular Na+ and apical pH but was not observed in the presence of the selective Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 (SLC9A3) inhibitor S1611. Measurement of intracellular pH confirmed that caffeine was not directly inhibiting hPepT1 but rather having an indirect effect through inhibition of NHE3 activity. NHE3 maintains the H+-electrochemical gradient which, in turn, acts as the driving force for H+-coupled solute transport. Uptake of β-alanine, a substrate for the H+-coupled amino acid transporter hPAT1 (SLC36A1), was also inhibited by caffeine. The regulation of NHE3 by non-nutrient components of diet or orally-delivered drugs may alter the function of any solute carrier dependent upon the H+-electrochemical gradient and may, therefore, be a site for both nutrient-drug and drug-drug interactions in the small intestine.  相似文献

Adequate regulation of endolymphatic pH is essential for maintaining inner ear function. The Na+–H+ exchanger (NHE) is a major determinant of intracellular pH (pHi), and facilitates Na+ and fluid absorption in various epithelia. We determined the functional and molecular expression of NHEs in cultured human endolymphatic sac (ES) epithelial cells and examined the effect of IFN‐γ on NHE function. Serial cultures of human ES epithelial cells were generated from tissue samples. The molecular expression of NHE1, ‐2, and ‐3 isoforms was determined by real‐time RT‐PCR. The functional activity of NHE isoforms was measured microfluorometrically using a pH‐sensitive fluorescent dye, 2′,7′‐bis(carbonylethyl)‐5(6)‐carboxyfluorescein (BCECF), and a NHE‐inhibitor, 3‐methylsulfonyl‐4‐piperidinobenzoyl guanidine methanesulfonate (HOE694). NHE1, ‐2, and ‐3 mRNAs were expressed in human ES epithelial cells. Functional activity of NHE1 and ‐2 was confirmed in the luminal membrane of ES epithelial cells by sequentially suppressing Na+‐dependent pHi recovery from intracellular acidification using different concentrations of HOE694. Treatment with IFN‐γ (50 nM for 24 h) suppressed mRNA expression of NHE1 and ‐2. IFN‐γ also suppressed functional activity of both NHE1 and ‐2 in the luminal membrane of ES epithelial cells. This study shows that NHEs are expressed in cultured human ES epithelial cells and that treatment with IFN‐γ suppresses the expression and functional activity of NHE1 and ‐2. J. Cell.

The ubiquitous mammalian Na+/H+ exchanger NHE1 has critical functions in regulating intracellular pH, salt concentration, and cellular volume. The regulatory C-terminal domain of NHE1 is linked to the ion-translocating N-terminal membrane domain and acts as a scaffold for signaling complexes. A major interaction partner is calmodulin (CaM), which binds to two neighboring regions of NHE1 in a strongly Ca2+-dependent manner. Upon CaM binding, NHE1 is activated by a shift in sensitivity toward alkaline intracellular pH. Here we report the 2.23 Å crystal structure of the NHE1 CaM binding region (NHE1CaMBR) in complex with CaM and Ca2+. The C- and N-lobes of CaM bind the first and second helix of NHE1CaMBR, respectively. Both the NHE1 helices and the Ca2+-bound CaM are elongated, as confirmed by small angle x-ray scattering analysis. Our x-ray structure sheds new light on the molecular mechanisms of the phosphorylation-dependent regulation of NHE1 and enables us to propose a model of how Ca2+ regulates NHE1 activity.  相似文献

Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 expressed in the intestine and kidney plays a major role in NaCl and HCO3 absorption that is closely linked to fluid absorption and blood pressure regulation. The Nedd4 family of E3 ubiquitin ligases interacts with a number of transporters and channels via PY motifs. A comparison of NHE3 sequences revealed the presence of PY motifs in NHE3s from human and several non-human primates but not in non-primate NHE3s. In this study we evaluated the differences between human and non-primate NHE3s in ubiquitination and interaction with Nedd4-2. We found that Nedd4-2 ubiquitinated human NHE3 (hNHE3) and altered its expression and activity. Surprisingly, rat NHE3 co-immunoprecipitated Nedd4-2, but its expression and activity were not altered by silencing of Nedd4-2. Ubiquitination by Nedd4-2 rendered hNHE3 to undergo internalization at a significantly greater rate than non-primate NHE3s without altering protein stability. Insertion of a PY motif in rabbit NHE3 recapitulated the interaction with Nedd4-2 and enhanced internalization. Thus, we propose a new model where disruption of Nedd4-2 interaction elevates hNHE3 expression and activity.  相似文献

Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) promotes renal cell migration by the modulation of integrin β1 trafficking and the turnover of focal adhesions. The aim of this study was to investigate whether AQP2 also works in cooperation with Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1), another well-known protein involved in the regulation of cell migration. Our results showed that the lamellipodia of AQP2-expressing cells exhibit significantly smaller volumes and areas of focal adhesions and more alkaline intracellular pH due to increased NHE1 activity than AQP2-null cells. The blockage of AQP2, or its physically-associated calcium channel TRPV4, significantly reduced lamellipodia NHE1 activity. NHE1 blockage significantly reduced the rate of cell migration, the number of lamellipodia, and the assembly of F-actin only in AQP2-expressing cells. Our data suggest that AQP2 modulates the activity of NHE1 through its calcium channel partner TRPV4, thereby determining pH-dependent actin polymerization, providing mechanical stability to delineate lamellipodia structure and defining the efficiency of cell migration.  相似文献

The Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) is a protein expressed in many mammalian cell types. It is involved in intracellular pH (pHi) homeostasis by exchanging extracellular Na+ for intracellular H+. To date, nine NHE isoforms (NHE1–NHE9) have been identified. NHE1 is the most predominant isoform expressed in mammalian cardiac muscle. A novel series of substituted (quinolinecarbonyl)guanidine derivatives were designed and synthesized as NHE inhibitors. Most compounds can inhibit NHE1‐mediated platelet swelling in a concentration‐dependent manner, among which compound 7f was the most active and more potent than cariporide. Furthermore, compound 7f has also been demonstrated to exhibit the in vivo cardioprotective effects against SD rat myocardial ischemic‐reperfusion injury superior to those of cariporide.  相似文献

The mammalian Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) is an integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH (pHi) by removing a single intracellular proton in exchange for one extracellular sodium ion. It is involved in cardiac hypertrophy and ischemia reperfusion damage to the heart and elevation of its activity is a trigger for breast cancer metastasis. NHE1 has an extensive 500 amino acid N-terminal membrane domain that mediates transport and consists of 12 transmembrane segments connected by intracellular and extracellular loops. Intracellular loops are hypothesized to modulate the sensitivity to pHi. In this study, we characterized the structure and function of intracellular loop 5 (IL5), specifically amino acids 431–443. Mutation of eleven residues to alanine caused partial or nearly complete inhibition of transport; notably, mutation of residues L432, T433, I436, N437, R440 and K443 demonstrated these residues had critical roles in NHE1 function independent of effects on targeting or expression. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) solution spectra of the IL5 peptide in a membrane mimetic sodium dodecyl sulfate solution revealed that IL5 has a stable three-dimensional structure with substantial alpha helical character. NMR chemical shifts indicated that K438 was in close proximity with W434. Overall, our results show that IL5 is a critical, intracellular loop with a propensity to form an alpha helix, and many residues of this intracellular loop are critical to proton sensing and ion transport.  相似文献

We recently reported that Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) activity in astrocytes is stimulated and leads to intracellular Na+ loading after oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD). However, the underlying mechanisms for this stimulation of NHE1 activity and its impact on astrocyte function are unknown. In the present study, we investigated the role of the ERK1/2 pathway in NHE1 activation. NHE1 activity was elevated by 75% in NHE1+/+ astrocytes after 2-h OGD and 1-h reoxygenation (REOX). The OGD/REOX-mediated stimulation of NHE1 was partially blocked by 30 µM PD-98059. Increased expression of phosphorylated ERK1/2 was detected in NHE1+/+ astrocytes after OGD/REOX. Moreover, stimulation of NHE1 activity disrupted not only Na+ but also Ca2+ homeostasis via reverse-mode operation of Na+/Ca2+ exchange. OGD/REOX led to a 103% increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in NHE1+/+ astrocytes in the presence of thapsigargin. Inhibition of NHE1 activity with the NHE1 inhibitor HOE-642 decreased OGD/REOX-induced elevation of [Ca2+]i by 73%. To further investigate changes of Ca2+ signaling, bradykinin-mediated Ca2+ release was evaluated. Bradykinin-mediated intracellular Ca2+ transient in NHE1+/+ astrocytes was increased by 84% after OGD/REOX. However, in NHE1–/– astrocytes or NHE1+/+ astrocytes treated with HOE-642, the bradykinin-induced Ca2+ release was increased by only 34%. Inhibition of the reverse mode of Na+/Ca2+ exchange abolished OGD/REOX-mediated Ca2+ rise. Together, our data suggest that ERK1/2 is involved in activation of NHE1 in astrocytes after in vitro ischemia. NHE1-mediated Na+ accumulation subsequently alters Ca2+ homeostasis via Na+/Ca2+ exchange. intracellular pH; cortical astrocytes; sodium/calcium exchange; intracellular sodium ion  相似文献
