Swelling activation of transport pathways in erythrocytes: effects of Cl-, ionic strength, and volume changes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
If swelling of acell is induced by a decrease in external medium tonicity, theregulatory response is more complex than if swelling of similarmagnitude is due to salt uptake. The present results provide anexplanation. In fish erythrocytes, two distinct transport pathways wereswelling activated: a channel of broad specificity and aK+-Clcotransporter. Each was activated by a specific signal: the channel bya decrease in intracellular ionic strength and theK+-Clcotransporter by cell enlargement. A decrease in ionic strength alsoaffectedK+-Clcotransport activity, but by acting as a negative modulator of thecotransport. Thus cells swollen by salt accumulation respond byactivating exclusively theK+-Clcotransport, leading to aCl-dependentK+ loss. By contrast, cellsswollen by electrolyte dilution respond by activating both pathways,leading to a reduced loss of electrolytes and a large loss of taurine.Thus two swelling-sensitive pathways, differently regulated, wouldallow control of the ionic composition of a cell exposed to differentvolume perturbations. 相似文献

Expression of trout anion exchanger 1 (tAE1) in Xenopus oocyte led to the stimulation of a Na(+)- and Cl(-)-dependent Rb influx. Functional features and pharmacological data strongly suggest that this Rb influx is mediated by the endogenous Na-K-2Cl (NKCC) co-transporter. The functional relationship between expression of tAE1 and activation of the NKCC co-transporter was investigated. Indeed, it was shown previously that tAE1 expressed in Xenopus oocyte induces a strong anion conductance which is correlated with an increased taurine permeability. Measurements of intracellular ion contents ruled out the involvement of any modification of known electrochemical parameters in NKCC co-transporter activation by tAE1. Furthermore, using chimera of tAE1 made with AE1 from other species unable to exhibit anion conductance led to the conclusion that there was no correlation between tAE1 anion conductance and NKCC co-transporter stimulation. Therefore, a possible molecular interaction between tAE1 and the NKCC co-transporter was investigated. Our results clearly show that NKCC activation is dependent upon the C-terminal part of tAE1. Chimeric constructions where tAE1 C-terminal part was substituted by the corresponding part of mouse AE1 abolished co-transporter activation. Moreover, steric encumbrance on the C-terminal end of tAE1 with a specific antibody or with a protein fusion also prevented the co-transporter activation. These data suggest a new role for some anion exchangers in controlling other transporter activity by molecular interactions. 相似文献

The abundant membrane protein AE1 normally functions as an obligate anion exchanger, with classical carrier properties, in human red blood cells. Recently, four single point mutations of hAE1 have been identified that have lost the anion exchange function, and act as non-selective monovalent cation channels, as shown in both red cell flux and oocyte expression studies. The red cell transport function shows a paradoxical temperature dependence, and is associated with spherocytic and stomatocytic red cell defects, and haemolytic anaemias. Other forms of AE1, including the native AE1 in trout red cells, and the human mutation R760Q show both channel-like and anion exchange properties. The present results point to membrane domains 9 and 10 being important in the functional modification of AE1 activity. 相似文献

It was previously shown that expressed in Xenopus oocyte the trout (tAE1) and the mouse (mAE1) anion exchangers behave differently: both elicit anion exchange activity but only tAE1 induces a transport of organic solutes correlated with an anion conductance. In order to identify the structural domains involved in the induction of tAE1 channel activity, chimeras have been prepared between mouse and trout AE1. As some constructs were not expressed at the plasma membrane, skate exchanger (skAE1) was used instead of mouse exchanger to complete the structure-function analysis. The present paper shows that skAE1, highly similar to mAE1, does not induce a chloride conductance when expressed in Xenopus oocyte. Construct expression analysis showed that only tAE1 transmembrane domain is linked to the anion conductance. More precisely, we identified two regions composed of helices 6, 7 and 8 and putative helices 12 and 13 which are required for this function. 相似文献

A phylogenetic tree of anion exchangers (AE) was performed in order to better understand relationships between the different known AE and how they arose. Indeed, the different known AE1 from mammals or fish do not exhibit the same transport features: all studied anion exchangers 1 (AE1) catalyse an electroneutral Cl-/HCO3- exchange through the plasma membrane; however, trout AE1 (tAE1) is able to spontaneously form an anion conductive pathway permeable to some inorganic cations (Na+ and K+) as well as to organic osmolytes such as taurine. Therefore, it has been proposed that this major erythrocyte membrane protein could play a key role for the cell volume regulation of trout red cells. By analogy, it was envisioned that other fish anion exchangers could play a similar role in osmolyte loss induced by erythrocyte swelling. We have cloned AE1 from Raja erinacea and Danio rerio and studied their properties after expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes. In this study, we show that none of them is able to induce any conductive pathway or taurine permeability in Xenopus oocytes. Our phylogenetic analyses show that, first, all present AE1 genes have a common ancestor distinct from that of AE2 and AE3 and second, tAE1 is a true AE1 ortholog. The question of whether tAE1 conductive properties are a derived character in the trout lineage within Euteleostei or whether other AE1 members can share these properties is then discussed. 相似文献

The anion exchanger 1 (AE1), a member of bicarbonate transporter family SLC4, mediates an electroneutral chloride/bicarbonate exchange in physiological conditions. However, some point mutations in AE1 membrane-spanning domain convert the electroneutral anion exchanger into a Na+ and K+ conductance or induce a cation leak in a still functional anion exchanger. The molecular determinants that govern ion movement through this transporter are still unknown. The present study was intended to identify the ion translocation pathway within AE1. In the absence of a resolutive three-dimensional structure of AE1 membrane-spanning domain, in silico modeling combined with site-directed mutagenesis experiments was done. A structural model of AE1 membrane-spanning domain is proposed, and this model is based on the structure of a uracil-proton symporter. This model was used to design cysteine-scanning mutagenesis on transmembrane (TM) segments 3 and 5. By measuring AE1 anion exchange activity or cation leak, it is proposed that there is a unique transport site comprising TM3–5 and TM8 that should function as an anion exchanger and a cation leak. 相似文献

A volume increase of trout erythrocytes can be induced either by beta-adrenergic stimulation of a Na+/H+ antiport in an isotonic medium (isotonic swelling) or by suspending red cells in an hypotonic medium (hypotonic swelling). In both cases cells regulate their volume by a loss of osmolytes via specific pathways. After hypotonic swelling several volume-dependent pathways were activated allowing K+, Na+, taurine and choline to diffuse. All these pathways were fully inhibited by furosemide and inhibitors of the anion exchanger (DIDS, niflumic acid), and the K+ loss was mediated essentially via a 'Cl(-)-independent' pathway. After isotonic swelling, the taurine, choline and Na+ pathways were practically not activated and the K+ loss was strictly 'Cl(-)-dependent'. Thus cellular swelling is a prerequisite for activation of these pathways but, for a given volume increase, the degree of activation and the degree of anion-dependence of the K+ pathway depend on the nature of the stimulus, whether hormonal or by reduction of osmolality. It appears that the pattern of the response induced by hormonal stimulation is not triggered by either cellular cAMP (since it can be reproduced in the absence of hormone by isotonic swelling in an ammonium-containing saline) or by the tonicity of the medium in which swelling occurs since after swelling in an isotonic medium containing urea, the cells adopt the regulatory pattern normally observed after hypotonic swelling. We demonstrated that the stimulus is the change in cellular ionic strength induced by swelling: when ionic strength drops, the cells adopt the hypotonic swelling pattern; when ionic strength increases, the isotonic swelling pattern is activated. To explain this modulating effect of ionic strength a speculative model is proposed, which also allows the integration of two further sets of experimental results: (i) all the volume-activated transport systems are blocked by inhibitors of the anion exchanger and (ii) a Cl(-)-dependent, DIDS-sensitive K+ pathway can be activated in static volume trout red cells (i.e., in the absence of volume increase) by the conformational change of hemoglobin induced by the binding of O2 or CO to the heme. 相似文献

The sigma-1 receptor is an intracellular protein characterized as a tumor biomarker whose function remains mysterious. We demonstrate herein for the first time that highly selective sigma ligands inhibit volume-regulated chloride channels (VRCC) in small cell lung cancer and T-leukemia cells. Sigma ligands and VRCC blockers provoked a cell cycle arrest underlined by p27 accumulation. In stably sigma-1 receptor-transfected HEK cells, the proliferation rate was significantly lowered by sigma ligands when compared with control cells. Sigma ligands produced a strong inhibition of VRCC in HEK-transfected cells but not in control HEK. Surprisingly, the activation rate of VRCC was dramatically delayed in HEK-transfected cells in the absence of ligands, indicating that sigma-1 receptors per se modulate cell regulating volume processes in physiological conditions. Volume measurements in hypotonic conditions revealed indeed that the regulatory volume decrease was delayed in HEK-transfected cells and virtually abolished in the presence of igmesine in both HEK-transfected and T-leukemic cells. Moreover, HEK-transfected cells showed a significant resistance to staurosporine-induced apoptosis volume decrease, indicating that sigma-1 receptors protect cancer cells from apoptosis. Altogether, our results show for the first time that sigma-1 receptors modulate "cell destiny" through VRCC and cell volume regulation. 相似文献

Previous results suggested that specific point mutations in human anion exchanger 1 (AE1) convert the electroneutral anion exchanger into a monovalent cation conductance. In the present study, the transport site for anion exchange and for the cation leak has been studied by cysteine scanning mutagenesis and sulfhydryl reagent chemistry. Moreover, the role of some highly conserved amino acids within members of the SLC4 family to which AE1 belongs has been assessed in AE1 transport properties. The results suggest that the same transport site within the AE1 spanning domain is involved in anion exchange or in cation transport. A functioning mechanism for this transport site is proposed according to transport properties of the different studied point mutations of AE1. 相似文献
