Phosphate transport by rat intestinal basolateral-membrane vesicles.

ABSTRACT: The characteristics of phosphate transport across intestinal basolateral membranes of the rat were determined by using enriched preparations in which uphill Na+-dependent D-glucose transport could not be demonstrated, but ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport was present. Phosphate transport was saturable, Na+-dependent and exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Vmax. was 51.1 +/- 4.2 pmol/10 s per mg of protein and Km was 14 +/- 3.9 microM. The transport process was electroneutral. Tracer-exchange experiments and counter-transport studies confirmed the presence of a Na+-Pi carrier at the basolateral membrane. The presence of inside-positive membrane potential did not enhance phosphate uptake, indicating that the Na+ effect is secondary to the presence of the Na+-Pi carrier rather than an induction of positive membrane potential. The stoichiometry of this carrier at pH 7.4 was 2 Na+:1 phosphate, as shown by direct studies utilizing the static-head method. These studies are the first to determine the presence of a phosphate carrier at the basolateral membrane.

Movement of biotin across the rat intestinal basolateral membrane. Studies with membrane vesicles.

Project description:The characteristics of the transport process of the water-soluble vitamin biotin across the basolateral membrane (BLM) of rat intestine, i.e. the exit of biotin from rat enterocyte, were examined using established BLM vesicles (BLMV) techniques. Results of osmolarity and temperature studies have indicated that the majority of biotin taken up by these vesicles is the result of transport of the vitamin into the intravesicular spaces, with little membrane binding. Transport of biotin in these vesicles was found to be: (1) higher in BLMV of the jejunum than those isolated simultaneously from the ileum, (2) Na(+)-independent in nature, (3) saturable as a function of concentration, with an apparent Km of 3.51 microM and a Vmax. of 16.49 pmol/10 s per mg of protein, (4) inhibited by high concentrations of unlabelled biotin and its related compounds, but not by the unrelated taurocholate, (5) sensitive to the anion transport inhibitors 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS) and 4-acetamido-4-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (SITS), and (6) not affected by imposing a positive or a negative intravesicular space with the use of a valinomycin-induced K+ diffusion potential. Based on these findings, it is concluded that biotin transport across the rat intestinal BLM is mediated via a specialized carrier system which is Na(+)-independent, transports the vitamin by a process which is sensitive to the effects of anion transport inhibitors, and is electroneutral in nature.

Calcium transport mechanisms in basolateral plasma membrane-enriched vesicles from rat parotid gland.

Project description:Ca2+ transport was studied by using basolateral plasma membrane vesicles from rat parotid gland prepared by a Percoll gradient centrifugation method. In these membrane vesicles, there were two Ca2+ transport systems; Na+/Ca2+ exchange and ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport. An outwardly directed Na+ gradient increased Ca2+ uptake. Ca2+ efflux from Ca2+-preloaded vesicles was stimulated by an inwardly directed Na+ gradient. However, Na+/Ca2+ exchange did not show any 'uphill' transport of Ca2+ against its own gradient. ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport exhibited 'uphill' transport. An inwardly directed Na+ gradient also decreased Ca2+ accumulation by ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake. The inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation was proportional to the external Na+ level. Na+/Ca2+ exchange was inhibited by monensin, tetracaine and chlorpromazine, whereas ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport was inhibited by orthovanadate, tetracaine and chlorpromazine. Oligomycin had no effect on either system. These results suggest that in the parotid gland cellular free Ca2+ is extruded mainly by an ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport system, and Na+/Ca2+ exchange may modify the efficacy of that system.

A carrier-mediated transport for folate in basolateral membrane vesicles of rat small intestine.

Project description:The mechanism of exit of folate from the enterocyte, i.e. transport across the basolateral membrane, is not known. In this study we examined, using basolateral membrane vesicles, the transport of folic acid across the basolateral membrane of rat intestine. Uptake of folic acid by these vesicles represents transport of the substrate into the intravesicular compartment and not binding to the membrane surface. The rate of folic acid transport was linear for the first 1 min of incubation but decreased thereafter, reaching equilibrium after 5 min of incubation. The transport of folic acid was: (1) saturable as a function of concentration with an apparent Km of 0.6 +/- 0.17 microM and Vmax. of 1.01 +/- 0.11 pmol/30 s per mg of protein; (2) inhibited in a competitive manner by the structural analogues 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and methotrexate (Ki = 2 and 1.4 microM, respectively); (4) electroneutral; (5) Na+-independent; (6) sensitive to the effect of the anion exchange inhibitor 4,4'-di-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS). These data indicate the existence of a carrier-mediated transport system for folic acid in rat intestinal basolateral membrane and demonstrate that the transport process is electroneutral, Na+-independent and sensitive to the effect of anion exchange inhibition.

Glycyl-L-proline transport in rabbit enterocyte basolateral-membrane vesicles.

Project description:The properties of a peptide-transport system in rabbit enterocyte basolateral membrane were examined with glycyl-L-proline as the substrate. Basolateral-membrane vesicles prepared from rabbit proximal intestine were characterized in terms of both purity and orientation. Marker-enzyme assays show that the basolateral-membrane marker, ouabain-sensitive K(+)-activated phosphatase, is enriched 17-fold with respect to the initial homogenate. The activities of enzymes used as markers for other membranes and organelles are low, and contamination of the final membrane fraction with these is minimal. The use of immunoblotting techniques further confirms the absence of brush-border-membrane contamination. Proteins in the basolateral-membrane vesicle preparation gave no cross-reaction with antibodies against the 140 kDa antigen and the Na+/glucose-symport protein, markers specific to the brush-border membrane of the enterocyte. Conversely, antibodies raised against the classical basolateral-membrane marker, the RLA class I histocompatibility complex, reacted strongly with a 43 kDa basolateral-membrane protein. The orientation of the basolateral-membrane vesicles was shown to be predominantly inside-out on determination by two independent criteria. The uptake of [1-14C]glycyl-L-proline by these vesicles is stimulated by the presence of an inwardly directed pH gradient, and this stimulation can be abolished by the proton ionophores carbonyl cyanide p-trichloromethoxyphenylhydrazone (CCCP) and tetrachlorotrifluoromethylbenzimidazole (TTFB). Transport is also inhibited by HgCl2, thimerosal, Na+ and other glycyl dipeptides.

Glutamine transport by basolateral plasma-membrane vesicles prepared from rabbit intestine.

Project description:L-Glutamine, a major energy substrate for intestinal epithelial cells, can be extracted from intraluminal contents across the brush-border membrane and from arterial blood via the basolateral membrane. The purpose of the present study was to characterize glutamine transport by the basolateral membrane of rabbit epithelial cells. Transport of glutamine by isolated basolateral-membrane vesicles was mediated by both Na(+)-dependent and Na(+)-independent carriers. Tests were performed to distinguish glutamine uptake by likely transport agencies, including Systems A, ASC, N, IMINO, NBB, L and asc. The Na(+)-dependent glutamine uptake was strongly inhibited by an excess of 2-(methylamino)isobutyric acid (MeAIB), and glutamine was equally effective in inhibiting MeAIB transport. The reciprocal inhibition analysis, as well as a sensitivity to increased H+ concentration, indicates that Na(+)-dependent glutamine transport across the basolateral membrane is mediated by System A. The saturable Na(+)-independent glutamine transport was markedly inhibited by 2-aminobicyclo-[2,2,1]-heptane-2-carboxylic acid ('BCH') and insensitive to changes in assay pH, suggesting uptake via System L rather than System asc. The presence of a Na(+)-dependent carrier to mediate active transport of glutamine across the basolateral membrane is probably essential to ensure a continuous supply of this vital substrate to the enterocyte in the post-absorptive state.

Effect of acidosis on glutamine transport by isolated rat renal brush-border and basolateral-membrane vesicles.

Project description:Glutamine uptake was examined in isolated renal brush-border and basolateral-membrane vesicles from control and acidotic rats. In brush-border vesicles from acidotic animals, there was a significant increase in the initial rate of glutamine uptake compared with that in controls. Lowering the pH of the medium increased the initial rate of glutamine uptake in brush-border vesicles from acidotic, but not from control, rats. In brush-border vesicles from both groups of animals, two saturable transport systems mediated glutamine uptake. There was a 2-fold increase in the Vmax. of the low-affinity high-capacity system in the brush-border vesicles from the acidotic animals compared with that from control animals, with no alteration in the other kinetic parameters. There was no difference in glutamine uptake by the two saturable transport systems in basolateral vesicles from control and acidotic animals. Lowering the incubation-medium pH increased the uptake of glutamine by basolateral vesicles from both control and acidotic rats to a similar extent. The data indicate that during acidosis there are alterations in glutamine transport by both the basolateral and brush-border membrane which could enhance its uptake by the renal-tubule cell for use in ammoniagenesis.

Iron-transport characteristics of vesicles of brush-border and basolateral plasma membrane from the rat enterocyte.

Project description:Vesicles of brush-border and basolateral plasma membrane were prepared from enterocytes of the rat small intestine. The separateness of these two varieties of plasma membrane was confirmed by appropriate enzyme assays. The uptake of Fe2+ by these membrane vesicles was studied, and the results suggest differences between the two types of membrane in both the amount of Fe2+ taken up and in the rate of uptake. At low (up to 3 micrometer) concentrations of Fe2+, uptake by both membrane types showed evidence of saturation and could be blocked with the thiol inactivator N-ethylmaleimide. The studies suggest that Fe2+ is taken into an osmotically active space by a process of facilitated diffusion at low concentrations, but that at higher concentrations the process appeared to obey first-order kinetics. The data provide further evidence for the existence of functional polarity in the epithelial cell of the small intestine.

Phosphate transport into brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat small intestine.

Project description:Uptake of Pi into brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat small intestine was investigated by a rapid filtration technique. The following results were obtained. 1. At pH 7.4 in the presence of a NaCl gradient across the membrane (sodium concentration in the medium higher than sodium concentration in the vesicles), phosphate was taken up by a saturable transport system, which was competitively inhibited by arsenate. Phosphate entered the same osmotically reactive space as D-glucose, which indicates that transport into the vesicles rather than binding to the membranes was determined. 2. The amount of phosphate taken up initially was increased about fourfold by lowering the pH from 7.4 to 6.0.3. When Na+ was replaced by K+, Rb+ or Cs+, the initial rate of uptake decreased at pH 7.4 but was not altered at pH 6.0.4. Experiments with different anions (SCN-,Cl-, SO42-) and with ionophores (valinomycin, monactin) showed that at pH 7.4 phosphate transport in the presence of a Na+ gradient is almost independent of the electrical potential across the vesicle membrane, whereas at pH 6.0 phosphate transport involves the transfer of negative charge. It is concluded that intestinal brush-border membranes contain a Na+/phosphate co-transport system, which catalyses under physiological conditions an electroneutral entry of Pi and Na+ into the intestinal epithelial cell. In contrast with the kidney, probably univalent phosphate and one Na+ ion instead of bivalent phosphate and two Na+ ions are transported together.

Preparation and characterization of basolateral plasma-membrane vesicles from sheep parotid glands. Mechanisms of phosphate and D-glucose transport.

Project description:A procedure is described for the preparation of basolateral membrane vesicles from the acinar cells of the sheep parotid gland. The ouabain-sensitive K(+)-activated phosphatase activity was enriched 30-fold over the tissue homogenate; 45% of this activity was recovered in the final membrane fraction. The presence of membranes from other organelles was negligible. Evidence is presented for the location of Na(+)-dependent symporters for phosphate and D-glucose on the basolateral membrane.

Anion transport in basolateral (sinusoidal) liver plasma-membrane vesicles of the little skate (Raja erinacea).

Project description:The mechanism(s) of [35S]sulphate transport was investigated in basolateral liver plasma-membrane vesicles of the little skate elasmobranch, Raja erinacea. Imposition of an intravesicular alkaline pH gradient (pH 8.0 in/pH 6.0 out) stimulated sulphate uptake 5-10-fold compared with pH-equilibrated (pH 8.0 in = out) conditions and 2-3-fold over equilibrium sulphate uptake (overshoot). This pH-gradient-stimulated sulphate uptake was temperature-dependent, saturable with increasing concentrations of sulphate and could be inhibited by the protonophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone and the anion-transport inhibitors 4,4'-di-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS) and probenecid, cis-Inhibition of pH-gradient-driven sulphate uptake was observed with sulphate, oxalate, cholate and bromosulphophthalein, but not with chloride and taurocholate. In addition, sulphate and oxalate trans-stimulated [35S]sulphate uptake under pH-equilibrated conditions. Although also stimulated by an inside-alkaline pH gradient, transmembrane transport of [3H]cholate was not inhibited by DIDS, suggesting that its pH-gradient-driven uptake is not mediated by an anion-transport 'carrier'. In conclusion, these studies indicate that a basolateral plasma-membrane sulphate-transport system has evolved in skate hepatocytes and is similar to that in mammalian liver cells. This archaic anion-exchange system co-transports certain organic anions such as oxalate and has developed early in vertebrate evolution.
