Secretagogue stimulation enhances NBCe1 (electrogenic Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) cotransporter) surface expression in murine colonic crypts.

ABSTRACT: A Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) cotransporter (NBC) is located in the basolateral membrane of the gastrointestinal epithelium, where it imports HCO(3)(-) during stimulated anion secretion. Having previously demonstrated secretagogue activation of NBC in murine colonic crypts, we now asked whether vesicle traffic and exocytosis are involved in this process. Electrogenic NBCe1-B was expressed at significantly higher levels than electroneutral NBCn1 in colonic crypts as determined by QRT-PCR. In cell surface biotinylation experiments, a time-dependent increase in biotinylated NBCe1 was observed, which occurred with a peak of +54.8% after 20 min with forskolin (P < 0.05) and more rapidly with a peak of +59.8% after 10 min with carbachol (P < 0.05) and which corresponded well with the time course of secretagogue-stimulated colonic bicarbonate secretion in Ussing chamber experiments. Accordingly, in isolated colonic crypts pretreated with forskolin and carbachol for 10 min, respectively, and subjected to immunohistochemistry, the NBCe1 signal showed a markedly stronger colocalization with the E-cadherin signal, which was used as a membrane marker, compared with the untreated control. Cytochalasin D did not change the observed increase in membrane abundance, whereas colchicine alone enhanced NBCe1 membrane expression without an additional increase after carbachol or forskolin, and LY294002 had a marked inhibitory effect. Taken together, our results demonstrate a secretagogue-induced increase of NBCe1 membrane expression. Vesicle traffic and exocytosis might thus represent a novel mechanism of intestinal NBC activation by secretagogues.

Project description:Key pointsAccording to the HCO3- metabolon hypothesis, direct association of cytosolic carbonic anhydrases (CAs) with the electrogenic Na/HCO3 cotransporter NBCe1-A speeds transport by regenerating/consuming HCO3- . The present work addresses published discrepancies as to whether cytosolic CAs stimulate NBCe1-A, heterologously expressed in Xenopus oocytes. We confirm the essential elements of the previous experimental observations, taken as support for the HCO3- metabolon hypothesis. However, using our own experimental protocols or those of others, we find that NBCe1-A function is unaffected by cytosolic CAs. Previous conclusions that cytosolic CAs do stimulate NBCe1-A can be explained by an unanticipated stimulatory effect of the CAs on an endogenous Na-H exchanger. Theoretical analyses show that, although CAs could stimulate non- HCO3- transporters (e.g. Na-H exchangers) by accelerating CO2 / HCO3- -mediated buffering of acid-base equivalents, they could not appreciably affect transport rates of NBCe1 or other transporters carrying HCO3- , CO3= , or NaCO3- ion pairs.AbstractThe HCO3- metabolon hypothesis predicts that cytosolic carbonic anhydrase (CA) binds to NBCe1-A, promotes HCO3- replenishment/consumption, and enhances transport. Using a short step-duration current-voltage (I-V) protocol with Xenopus oocytes expressing eGFP-tagged NBCe1-A, our group reported that neither injecting human CA II (hCA II) nor fusing hCA II to the NBCe1-A carboxy terminus affects background-subtracted NBCe1 slope conductance (GNBC ), which is a direct measure of NBCe1-A activity. Others - using bovine CA (bCA), untagged NBCe1-A, and protocols keeping holding potential (Vh ) far from NBCe1-A's reversal potential (Erev ) for prolonged periods - found that bCA increases total membrane current (ΔIm ), which apparently supports the metabolon hypothesis. We systematically investigated differences in the two protocols. In oocytes expressing untagged NBCe1-A, injected with bCA and clamped to -40 mV, CO2 / HCO3- exposures markedly decrease Erev , producing large transient outward currents persisting for >10 min and rapid increases in [Na+ ]i . Although the CA inhibitor ethoxzolamide (EZA) reduces both ΔIm and d[Na+ ]i /dt, it does not reduce GNBC . In oocytes not expressing NBCe1-A, CO2 / HCO3- triggers rapid increases in [Na+ ]i that both hCA II and bCA enhance in concentration-dependent manners. These d[Na+ ]i /dt increases are inhibited by EZA and blocked by EIPA, a Na-H exchanger (NHE) inhibitor. In oocytes expressing untagged NBCe1-A and injected with bCA, EIPA abolishes the EZA-dependent decreases in ΔIm and d[Na+ ]i /dt. Thus, CAs/EZA produce their ΔIm and d[Na+ ]i /dt effects not through NBCe1-A, but endogenous NHEs. Theoretical considerations argue against a CA stimulation of HCO3- transport, supporting the conclusion that an NBCe1-A- HCO3- metabolon does not exist in oocytes.
