Bile-salt inhibition of sodium ion-coupled D-glucose and L-alanine accumulation by brush-border-membrane vesicles from hamster jejunum.

ABSTRACT: The effects of bile salts on Na+-coupled accumulation of D-glucose and L-alanine by brush-border-membrane vesicles isolated from hamster jejunum were investigated. The approximate percentage inhibition of Na+-coupled D-glucose accumulation produced by various bile salts at a concentration of 1 mM were: deoxycholate and chenodeoxycholate, 60%; glycine and taurine conjugates of deoxycholate and chenodeoxycholate, 40--50%; lithocholate, 45%; cholate and its glycine and taurine conjugates, less than 10%. Inhibition of Na+-coupled accumulation of D-glucose was rapid, reversible and not due to dissolution of the vesicles. Na+-coupled accumulation of L-alanine was also inhibited by deoxycholate. Deoxycholate but not cholate enhanced (1) the rate of Na+ influx, (2) the rate of influx of D-glucose and L-alanine in the absence of a Na+ gradient and (3) the rate of efflux of D-glucose and L-alanine from vesicles preloaded with this sugar or amino acid. Deoxycholate-stimulated efflux of D-glucose was not blocked by phlorizin, which completely prevented efflux in the absence of this bile salt. These results suggest that selected bile salts inhibit Na+-coupled accumulation of D-glucose and L-alanine by enhancing the rate of dissipation of the Na+ gradient required for substrate accumulation. In addition, bile salts may also decrease D-glucose and L-alanine accumulation by increasing the rate of efflux of these substrates across the brush-border plasma membrane.

Sodium ion-coupled uptake of taurocholate by intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles.

Project description:The uptake of taurocholate was studied in membrane vesicles isolated from brush borders of hamster jejunum and ileum. When an extra- to intra-vesicular gradient of Na+ ions was present ileal vesicles took up 10 times more taurocholate than did jejunal vesicles. Accumulation of taurocholate by ileal vesicles was transient and was due to transport of this bile salt into an osmotically active intravesicular space rather than simple binding. Uptake of taurocholate was specifically dependent on Na+ ions; NaCl and Na2SO4 were capable of supporting accumulation, whereas KCl, LiCl and mannitol were not. Na+-coupled uptake of taurocholate into ileal vesicles was inhibited by other trihydroxy bile salts, by preloading the vesicles with Na+ and by simultaneous flow of glucose into the vesicles. Similarly, vesicular uptake of glucose was inhibited by simultaneous uptake of taurocholate. These results demonstrated that brush-border membrane vesicles prepared from ileum possess an Na+-coupled co-transport system for taurocholate that is similar to the active bile-salt transport system present in the intact ileum.

Characterization of the ileal Na+/bile salt co-transporter in brush border membrane vesicles and functional expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes.

Project description:The Na+/bile salt co-transporter of the pig ileal brush border membrane has been expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Injection of pig ileal poly (A)+ RNA into oocytes resulted in the functional expression of an Na(+)-gradient-stimulated taurocholate uptake within 2-5 days. The expressed Na(+)-dependent taurocholate uptake exhibited saturation kinetics (apparent Km of 48 microM), and displayed similar competitive substrate inhibition by taurodeoxycholate as the native brush border Na+/bile salt co-transporter studied in pig ileal brush border membrane vesicles. Interestingly, injection of pig proximal and mid intestinal poly (A)+ RNA into oocytes also resulted in the expression of the Na+/bile salt co-transporter, though the Na(+)-dependent transport of bile salts does not occur in brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) isolated from pig proximal and mid intestine. This suggests that the mRNA coding for the co-transporter is present in the enterocytes lining the whole length of the small intestine, but that the function is only expressed in the brush border of the distal small intestine. The transport of D-glucose into BBMV, and the transport of methyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (a non-metabolizable hexose derivative) into oocytes were used throughout the study as methods of confirming the integrity of vesicles and oocytes.

Multiple sodium-dependent nucleoside transport systems in bovine renal brush-border membrane vesicles.

Project description:Na(+)-dependent nucleoside transport was examined in bovine renal brush-border membrane vesicles. Two separate Na+/nucleoside cotransporters were shown to be present: (1) a system specific for purine nucleosides and uridine, designated as the N1 carrier, and (2) an Na(+)-dependent nucleoside transporter that accepts pyrimidine nucleosides, adenosine and analogues of adenosine, designated as the N2 system. Both systems exhibit a high affinity for nucleosides (apparent Km values approximately 10 microM), are insensitive to inhibition by facilitated-diffusion nucleoside transport inhibitors, are rheogenic and exhibit a high specificity for Na+. Na+ increases the affinity of the influx of guanosine and thymidine, nucleosides that serve as model permeants for the N1 and N2 nucleoside transporters respectively. The Na+/nucleoside coupling stoichiometry is consistent with 1:1 for both carriers.

Taurocholate--sodium co-transport by brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat ileum.

Project description:Uptake of taurocholate into brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat small intestine by a Ca(2+) -precipitation method was investigated by using a rapid-filtration technique. Uptake of taurocholate by ileal brush-border membranes consisted of three phenomena: binding to the outside of the vesicles, transfer across the vesicle membrane and binding to the intravesicular compartment. The transport of taurocholate across the brush-border membranes was stimulated in the presence of Na(+) compared with the presence of K(+); stimulation was about 11-fold in the presence of a NaCl gradient (Na(o)>Na(i)), where the subscripts refer to ;outside' and ;inside' respectively, and 4-fold under equilibrium conditions for Na(+) (Na(o)=Na(i)). In the presence of a Na(+) gradient a typical ;overshoot' phenomenon was observed. Membranes preloaded with unlabelled taurocholate showed an accelerated entry of labelled taurocholate (tracer exchange) in the presence of Na(+) compared with the presence of K(+). The stimulation by Na(+) was observed only in membrane preparations from the ileum. Addition of monactin, an ionophore for univalent cations, decreased the Na(+)-gradient-driven taurocholate uptake. The Na(+)-dependent taurocholate transport showed saturation kinetics and the phenomenon of counterflow and was inhibited by glycocholate. Other cations such as Li(+), Rb(+) and Cs(+) could not replace Na(+) in its stimulatory action. When the electrical potential difference across the vesicle membrane was altered by establishing different diffusion potentials (anion replacement; K(+) gradient+/-valinomycin) a more-negative potential inside stimulated Na(+)-dependent taurocholate transport. These data demonstrate the presence of a rheogenic (potential sensitive) Na(+)-taurocholate co-transport system in ileal brush-border membranes and support the hypothesis that the reabsorption of bile acids in the ileum is a secondary active uptake.

Sodium ion/L-lactate co-transport in rabbit small-intestinal brush-border-membrane vesicles.

Project description:Uptake of L-lactate into rabbit jejunal brush-border-membrane vesicles prepared by a Ca2+-precipitation procedure was studied by a rapid filtration technique with L-[14C]-lactate as tracer. Transport of L-lactate into an intravesicular (osmotically reactive) space could be established. An inwardly directed NaCl gradient (outside 21 mM/inside 0mM) stimulated the uptake of L-lactate at 15 s 2-4-fold compared with that observed with an equal KCl gradient. A transient accumulation of L-lactate inside the vesicles (overshoot) was observed in the presence of an NaCl gradient. Gradients of LiCl, RbCl, CsCl or choline chloride were not able to replace NaCl in the stimulation of L-lactate uptake. L-Lactate uptake was saturable only in the presence of Na+. D-Lactate, DL-thiolactate (2-DL-mercaptopropionate), pyruvate and propionate inhibited the Na+-stimulated L-lactate uptake; D-lactate, thiolactate and pyruvate provoked trans-stimulation of L-lactate uptake. Artificially imposed diffusion potentials (inside negative) did not exert any effect on the Na+-dependent L-lactate uptake. The results are consistent with the existence of an electroneutral Na+/L-lactate co-transport system in the brush border of rabbit small intestine.

Sodium/proton antiport in brush-border-membrane vesicles isolated from rat small intestine and kidney.

Project description:Studies on proton and Na+ transport by isolated intestinal and renal brush-border-membrane vesicles were carried out to test for the presence of an Na+/H+-exchange system. Proton transport was evaluated as proton transfer from the intravesicular space to the incubation medium by monitoring pH changes in the membrane suspension induced by sudden addition of cations. Na+ transport was determined as Na+ uptake into the vesicles by filtration technique. A sudden addition of sodium salts (but not choline) to the membrane suspension provokes an acidification of the incubation medium which is abolished by the addition of 0.5% Triton X-100. Pretreatment of the membranes with Triton X-100 prevents the acidification. The acidification is also not observed if the [K+] and proton conductance of the membranes have been increased by the simultaneous addition of valinomycin and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone to the K+-rich incubation medium. Either valinomycin or carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone when added alone do not alter the response of the membranes to the addition of Na+. Na+ uptake by brush-border microvilli is enhanced in the presence of a proton gradient directed from the intravesicular space to the incubation medium. Under these conditions a transient accumulation of Na+ inside the vesicles is observed. It is concluded that intestinal and renal brush-border membranes contain a NA+/H+ antiport system which catalyses an electroneutral exchange of Na+ against protons and consequently can produce a proton gradient in the presence of a concentration difference for Na+. This system might be involved in the active proton secretion of the small intestine and the proximal tubule of the kidney.

Heterogeneity of L-alanine transport systems in brush-border membrane vesicles from rat placenta during late gestation.

Project description:The placental uptake of L-alanine was studied by using purified brush-border membrane vesicles from rat trophoblasts. Saturation curves were carried out at 37 degrees C in buffers containing 100 mM (zero-trans)-NaSCN, -NaCl, -KSCN, -KCl, or -N-methyl-D-glucamine gluconate. The uncorrected uptake results were fitted by non-linear regression analysis to an equation involving one diffusional component either one or two saturable Michaelian transport terms. In the presence of NaCl, two distinct L-alanine transport systems were distinguished, named respectively System 1 (S-1; Vm1 about 760 pmol/s per mg of protein; KT1 = 0.5 mM) and System 2 (S-2; Vm2 about 1700 pmol/s per mg; KT2 = 9 mM). In contrast, in the presence of K+ (KCl = KSCN) or in the absence of any alkali-metal ions (N-methyl-D-glucamine gluconate), only one saturable system was apparent, which we identify as S-2. When Na+ is present, S-1, but not S-2, appears to be rheogenic, since its maximal transport capacity significantly increases in the presence of an inside-negative membrane potential, created either by replacing Cl- with the permeant anion thiocyanate (NaSCN > NaCl) or by applying an appropriate K+ gradient and valinomycin. alpha-(Methylamino)isobutyrate (methyl-AIB) appears to be a substrate of S-1, but not of S-2. For reasons that remain to be explained, however, methyl-AIB inhibits S-2. We conclude that S-1 represents a truly Na(+)-dependent mechanism, where Na+ behaves as an obligatory activator, whereas S-2 cannot discriminate between Na+ and K+, although its activity is higher in the presence of alkali-metal ions than in their absence (Na+ = K+ > N-methyl-D-glucammonium ion). S-2 appears to be fully developed 2 days before birth, whereas S-1 undergoes a capacity-type activation between days 19.5 and 21.5 of gestation, i.e. its apparent Vmax. nearly doubles, whereas its KT remains constant.

Sodium-gradient-driven, high-affinity, uphill transport of succinate in human placental brush-border membrane vesicles.

Project description:Brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from normal human term placentas were shown to accumulate succinate transiently against a concentration gradient, when an inward-directed Na+ gradient was imposed across the membrane. This uptake was almost totally due to transport into intravesicular space, non-specific binding to the membranes being negligible. The dependence of the initial uptake rate of succinate on Na+ concentration exhibited sigmoidal kinetics, indicating interaction of more than one Na+ ion with the carrier system. The Hill coefficient for this ion was calculated to be 2.7. The Na+-dependent uptake of succinate was electrogenic, resulting in the transfer of positive charge across the membrane. Kinetic analysis showed that succinate uptake in these vesicles occurred via a single transport system, with an apparent affinity constant of 4.8 +/- 0.2 microM and a maximal velocity of 274 +/- 4 pmol/20 s per mg of protein. Uptake of succinate was strongly inhibited by various C4 or C5 dicarboxylic acids, whereas monocarboxylic acids, amino acids and glucose showed little or no effect. Li+ and K+ could not substitute for Na+ in the uptake process. Instead, Li+ was found to have a significant inhibitory effect on the Na+-dependent uptake of succinate.

Sulphate-ion/sodium-ion co-transport by brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kidney cortex.

Project description:Uptake of SO(4) (2-) into brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kindey cortex by a Ca(2+)-precipitation method was investigated by using a rapid-filtration technique. Uptake of SO(4) (2-) by the vesicles was osmotically sensitive and represented transport into an intra-vesicular space. Transport of SO(4) (2-) by brush-border membranes was stimulated in the presence of Na(+), compared with the presence of K(+) or other univalent cations. A typical ;overshoot' phenomenon was observed in the presence of an NaCl gradient (100mm-Na(+) outside/zero mm-Na(+) inside). Radioactive-SO(4) (2-) exchange was faster in the presence of Na(+) than in the presence of K(+). Addition of gramicidin-D, an ionophore for univalent cations, decreased the Na(+)-gradient-driven SO(4) (2-) uptake. SO(4) (2-) uptake was only saturable in the presence of Na(+). Counter-transport of Na(+)-dependent SO(4) (2-) transport was shown with MoO(4) (2-) and S(2)O(3) (2-), but not with PO(4) (2-). Changing the electrical potential difference across the vesicle membrane by establishing different diffusion potentials (anion replacement; K(+) gradient+/-valinomycin) was not able to alter Na(+)-dependent SO(4) (2-) uptake. The experiments indicate the presence of an electroneutral Na(+)/SO(4) (2-)-co-transport system in brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kidney cortex.

Proteomics analysis of Trichoplusia ni midgut epithelial cell brush border membrane vesicles.

Project description:The insect midgut epithelium is composed of columnar, goblet, and regenerative cells. Columnar epithelial cells are the most abundant and have membrane protrusions that form the brush border membrane (BBM) on their apical side. These increase surface area available for the transport of nutrients, but also provide opportunities for interaction with xenobiotics such as pathogens, toxins and host plant allelochemicals. Recent improvements in proteomic and bioinformatics tools provided an opportunity to determine the proteome of the T. ni BBM in unprecedented detail. This study reports the identification of proteins from BBM vesicles (BBMVs) using single dimension polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis coupled with multi-dimensional protein identification technology. More than 3000 proteins were associated with the BBMV, of which 697 were predicted to possess either a signal peptide, at least one transmembrane domain or a GPI-anchor signal. Of these, bioinformatics analysis and manual curation predicted that 185 may be associated with the BBMV or epithelial cell plasma membrane. These are discussed with respect to their predicted functions, namely digestion, nutrient uptake, cell signaling, development, cell-cell interactions, and other functions. We believe this to be the most detailed proteomic analysis of the lepidopteran midgut epithelium membrane to date, which will provide information to better understand the biochemical, physiological and pathological processes taking place in the larval midgut.
