Abstract: | We examined the regulation of theNa+/H+exchangers (NHEs) NHE2 and NHE3 by expressing them in human intestinalC2/bbe cells, which spontaneously differentiate and have little basalapical NHE activity. Unidirectional apical membrane22Na+influxes were measured in NHE2-transfected (C2N2) and NHE3-transfected (C2N3) cells under basal and stimulated conditions, and their activities were distinguished as the HOE-642-sensitive and -insensitive components of5-(N,N-dimethyl)amiloride-inhibitableflux. Both C2N2 and C2N3 cells exhibited increased apical membrane NHEactivity under non-acid-loaded conditions compared with nontransfected control cells. NHE2 was inhibited by 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate and thapsigargin, was stimulatedby serum, and was unaffected by cGMP- and protein kinase C-dependent pathways. In contrast, NHE3 was inhibited by all regulatory pathways examined. Under acid-loaded conditions (which increase apical Na+ influx), NHE2 and NHE3exhibited similar patterns of regulation, suggesting that the secondmessenger effects observed were not secondary to effects on cell pH.Thus, in contrast to their expression in nonepithelial cells, NHE2 andNHE3 expressed in an epithelial cell line behave similarly toendogenously expressed intestinal apical membrane NHEs. We concludethat physiological regulation and function of epithelium-specific NHEsare dependent on tissue-specific factors and/or conditionalrequirements. |
