In fura 2-loaded N1E-115 cells, regulationof intracellular Ca2+ concentration([Ca2+]i) following a Ca2+ loadinduced by 1 µM thapsigargin and 10 µM carbonylcyanidep-trifluoromethyoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) wasNa+ dependent and inhibited by 5 mM Ni2+. Incells with normal intracellular Na+ concentration([Na+]i), removal of bath Na+,which should result in reversal of Na+/Ca2+exchange, did not increase [Ca2+]i unlesscell Ca2+ buffer capacity was reduced. When N1E-115 cellswere Na+ loaded using 100 µM veratridine and 4 µg/mlscorpion venom, the rate of the reverse mode of theNa+/Ca2+ exchanger was apparently enhanced,since an ~4- to 6-fold increase in [Ca2+]ioccurred despite normal cell Ca2+ buffering. In SBFI-loadedcells, we were able to demonstrate forward operation of theNa+/Ca2+ exchanger (net efflux ofCa2+) by observing increases (~ 6 mM) in[Na+]i. These Ni2+ (5 mM)-inhibited increases in [Na+]i could onlybe observed when a continuous ionomycin-induced influx ofCa2+ occurred. The voltage-sensitive dyebis-(1,3-diethylthiobarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol was used tomeasure changes in membrane potential. Ionomycin (1 µM) depolarizedN1E-115 cells (~25 mV). This depolarization was Na+dependent and blocked by 5 mM Ni2+ and 250-500 µMbenzamil. These data provide evidence for the presence of anelectrogenic Na+/Ca2+ exchanger that is capableof regulating [Ca2+]i after release ofCa2+ from cell stores. 相似文献

The following is the abstract of the article discussed in thesubsequent letter:Mitchell, Claire H., Jin Jun Zhang, Liwei Wang, andTim J. C. Jacob. Volume-sensitive chloride current in pigmented ciliary epithelial cells: role of phospholipases. Am. J. Physiol. 272 (Cell Physiol. 41): C212-C222, 1997.Thewhole cell recording technique was used to examine an outwardlyrectifying chloride current activated by hypotonic shock in bovinepigmented ciliary epithelial (PCE) cells. Removal of internal andexternal Ca2+ did not affect the activation of thesecurrents, but they were abolished by the phospholipase C inhibitorneomycin. The current was blocked by5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid,4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, and4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) in avoltage-dependent manner, but tamoxifen, dideoxyforskolin, andquinidine did not affect it. This blocking profile differs from that ofthe volume-sensitive chloride channel in neighboring nonpigmentedciliary epithelial cells (Wu, J., J. J. Zhang, H. Koppel, and T. J. C. Jacob. J. Physiol. Lond. 491: 743-755, 1996), and thisdifference implies that the volume responses of the two cell types aremediated by different chloride channels (Jacob, T. J. C., and J. J. Zhang. J. Physiol. Lond. In press). Intracellular administration of guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPS) to PCE cells induced a transient, time-independent, outwardly rectifying chloride current that closely resembled the current activated by hypotonic shock. DIDS produced a voltage-dependent blockof the GTPS-activated current similar to the block of the hypotonically activated current. Intracellular neomycin completely prevented activation of this current as did incubation of the cells incalphostin C, an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC). Removal ofCa2+ did not affect activation of the current by GTPSbut extended the duration of the response. Inhibition of phospholipaseA2 (PLA2) with p-bromophenacyl bromideprevented the activation of the hypotonically induced current and alsoinhibited the current once activated by hypotonic solution. Thefindings imply that the hypotonic response in PCE cells is mediated byboth phospholipase C (PLC) and PLA2. Both phospholipasesgenerate arachidonic acid, and, in addition, the PLC pathway regulatesthe PLA2 pathway via a PKC-dependent phosphorylation ofPLA2. 相似文献

Exposure of Amphiuma red blood cells to millimolar concentrations of N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) resulted in net K loss. In order to determine whether net K loss was conductive or was by electroneutral K/H exchange or KCl cotransport, studies were performed evaluating K flux in terms of the thermodynamic forces to which K flux by the above pathways should couple. The direction and magnitude of the NEM-induced net K flux did not correspond with the direction and magnitude of the forces relevant to K conductance or electroneutral KCl cotransport. Both the magnitude and direction of the NEM-activated K flux responded to the driving force for K/H exchange. We therefore conclude that NEM-induced K loss, like that by osmotically swollen Amphiuma red blood cells, is by an electroneutral K/H exchanger. In addition to the above studies, we evaluated the kinetic behavior of the volume- and NEM-induced K/H exchange flux pathways in media where Cl was replaced by SCN, NO3, para-aminohippurate (PAH), or gluconate. The anion replacement studies did not permit a distinction between K/H exchange and KCl cotransport, since, depending upon the anion used as a Cl replacement, partial inhibition or stimulation of volume-activated K/H exchange fluxes was observed. In contrast, all anions used were stimulatory to the NEM-induced K loss. Since, on the basis of force-flow analysis, both volume-and NEM-induced K loss are K/H exchange, it was necessary to reevaluate assumptions (i.e., anions serve as substrates and therefore probe the translocation step) associated with the use of anion replacement as a means of flux route identification. When viewed together with the force-flow studies, the Cl replacement studies suggest that anion effects upon K/H exchange are indirect. The different anions appear to alter mechanisms that couple NEM exposure and cell swelling to the activation of K/H exchange, as opposed to exerting direct effects upon K and H translocation. 相似文献

If the extracellular fluid is left unbuffered, dynamic membrane potential changes in the red blood cell may be determined from external pH readings. For some types of experiments it is necessary to accelerate H+ equilibration by adding minute amounts of hydrogen carriers. The method is independent of hematocrit over a wide range of membrane potential changes. Membrane potential jumps produced by permeability changes or by changes in ionic composition may be measured. The method provides a convenient means of measuring parameters of both the conductive and non-conductive anion pathways in the red cell. 相似文献

The 1:1 complex of Co(ClO4)2 with the H2O-insoluble tridentate 2,6-di(1H-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazol-3-yl)pyridine (H21) was found to be an excellent catalyst for the hydrolysis of para-nitrophenyl acetate in aqueous buffers over the pH 7.05-7.90 range, with an estimated second-order rate constant of 0.50 M(-1) s(-1). The Co2+ complexes of the N,N'-di-1-dodecyl analogue in micellar media and the N,N'-di-(4-carboxyphenyl) analogue in aqueous media were much poorer catalysts, poorer than the free ligands. In all cases, the pH-rate profiles indicated that free base, deprotonated or hydroxo forms were the active species. The greater success with Co(H(2)1)2+ indicated a catalytic role for N-H deprotonation. 相似文献

Intracellular microelectrode techniques and intracellular pH (pHi) measurements using the fluorescent dye 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF) were employed to characterize an electrogenic bicarbonate transport mechanism at the apical membrane of the frog retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Reductions in apical concentrations of both [HCO3]o (at constant Pco2 or pHo) or [Na]o caused rapid depolarization of the apical membrane potential (Vap). Both of these voltage responses were inhibited when the concentration of the other ion was reduced or when 1 mM diisothiocyano-2-2 disulfonic acid stilbene (DIDS) was present in the apical bath. Reductions in apical [HCO3]o or [Na]o also produced a rapid acidification of the cell interior that was inhibited by apical DIDS. Elevating pHi at constant Pco2 (and consequently [HCO3]i) by the addition of apical NH4 (20 mM) produced an immediate depolarization of Vap. This response was much smaller when either apical [HCO3]o or [Na]o was reduced or when DIDS was added apically. These results strongly suggest the presence of an electrogenic NaHCO3 cotransporter at the apical membrane. Apical DIDS rapidly depolarized Vap by 2-3 mV and decreased pHi (and [HCO3]i), indicating that the transporter moves NaHCO3 and net negative charge into the cell. The voltage dependence of the transporter was assessed by altering Vap with transepithelial current and then measuring the DIDS-induced change in Vap. Depolarization of Vap increased the magnitude of the DIDS-induced depolarization, whereas hyperpolarization decreased it. Hyperpolarizing Vap beyond -114 mV caused the DIDS-induced voltage change to reverse direction. Based on this reversal potential, we calculate that the stoichiometry of the transporter is 1.6-2.4 (HCO3/Na). 相似文献

Changes in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell volume were measured by monitoring changes in intracellular tetramethylammonium (TMA) using double-barreled K-resin microelectrodes. Hyperosmotic addition of 25 or 50 mM mannitol to the Ringer of the apical bath resulted in a rapid (approximately 30 s) osmometric cell shrinkage. The initial cell shrinkage was followed by a much slower (minutes) secondary shrinkage that is probably due to loss of cell solute. When apical [K+] was elevated from 2 to 5 mM during or before a hyperosmotic pulse, the RPE cell regulated its volume by reswelling towards control within 3-10 min. This change in apical [K+] is very similar to the increase in subretinal [K+]o that occurs after a transition from light to dark in the intact vertebrate eye. The K-dependent regulatory volume increase (RVI) was inhibited by apical Na removal, Cl reduction, or the presence of bumetanide. These results strongly suggest that a Na(K),Cl cotransport mechanism at the apical membrane mediates RVI in the bullfrog RPE. A unique aspect of this cotransporter is that it also functions at a lower rate under steady-state conditions. The transport requirements for Na, K, and Cl, the inhibition of RVI by bumetanide, and thermodynamic calculations indicate that this mechanism transports Na, K, and Cl in the ratio of 1:1:2. 相似文献
