Effect of parathyrin on the transport properties of isolated renal brush-border vesicles.

ABSTRACT: The transport properties of brush-border membrane vesicles isolated by a calcium-precipitation method from the renal cortex of normal and parathyrin (parathyroid hormone)-treated rats were studied by a rapid-filtration technique. Parathyrin elicited a dose-dependent decrease in the Na+-dependent phosphate uptake by the brush-border membrane vesicles, but the uptake of D-glucose, Na+ and mannitol was not affected. A maximum inhibition of 30% was observed after the application of 30 U.S.P. units intramuscularly 1 h before the animals were killed. Intravenous infusion of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (0.5-1.5 MG) also decreased the phosphate uptake by the brush-border vesicles. Both dibutyryl cyclic AMP and parathyrin were ineffective when added in vitro to brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from normal rats. These data suggest that parathyrin exerts its action on the phosphate reabsorption in the renal proximal tubule by affecting the Na+/phosphate co-transport system in the brush-border membrane. The effects of parathyrin on Na+ and glucose transport, however, seem to be due to alterations to the driving forces for transport and not to the brush-border transport systems.

Effect of dietary phosphate intake on phosphate transport by isolated rat renal brush-border vesicles.

Project description:Renal brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rats kept for 6-8 weeks on a low-phosphate diet (0.15% of dry matter) showed a markedly faster Na(+)-dependent phosphate uptake than did membrane vesicles isolated from animals kept on a high-phosphate diet (2% of dry matter). Phosphate-uptake rate by brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from animals on a low-phosphate diet remained significantly increased after acute parathyroidectomy. Dietary adaptation was also observed in animals that had been parathyroidectomized before exposure to the different diets. In animals on the low-phosphate diet parathyrin administration inhibited phosphate uptake by brush-border vesicles only if the animals were repleted with P(i) (5ml of 20mm-NaH(2)PO(4)) 1h before being killed. After acute phosphate loading and parathyrin administration the difference in the transport rate between the two dietary groups remained statistically significant. The results suggest that the adaptation of proximal-tubule phosphate transport to dietary intake of phosphate is reflected in the Na(+)/phosphate co-transport system located in the luminal membrane of the proximal-tubule cell. Since the dietary effects on phosphate transport by brush-border membranes are only partially reversed by acute changes in parathyrin concentration and are also observed in chronically parathyroidectomized animals, the adaptation of the Na(+)/phosphate co-transport system to dietary phosphate intake seems to involve an additional mechanism independent of parathyrin.

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.

Taurine transport in renal brush-border-membrane vesicles.

Project description:Taurine transport in isolated brush-border-membrane vesicles from rat kidney is concentrative and it is driven by the Na+ gradient and transmembrane potential difference; binding is not a significant component of net uptake. The Na+-dependent component of net uptake is saturable with an apparent Km of 17 microM. The taurine-transport mechanism is selective for beta-amino compounds.

Distribution and properties of the glycylsarcosine-transport system in rabbit renal proximal tubule. Studies with isolated brush-border-membrane vesicles.

Project description:The distribution and properties of the peptide-transport system in rabbit renal proximal tubule was examined with glycylsarcosine as the substrate and using brush-border-membrane vesicles derived from pars convoluta (outer cortex) and pars recta (outer medulla). The dipeptide was transported into these vesicles against a concentration gradient in the presence of an inward-directed H+ gradient, demonstrating the presence of a H+-coupled peptide-transport system in outer-cortical as well as outer-medullary brush-border membranes. Even though the transport was electrogenic and was energized by a H+ gradient in both membranes, the system was more active in outer medullary membranes than in outer cortical membranes. Kinetic analysis showed that, although the affinity of the transport system for glycylsarcosine was similar in both membrane preparations, the capacity of the system was significantly greater in outer medulla than in outer cortex. In addition, the pH profiles of the peptide-transport systems in these membrane preparations also showed dissimilarities. The greater dipeptide uptake in one membrane vis-à-vis the other may probably be due to the difference in the affinity of the transport system for H+ and/or the difference in peptide/H+ stoichiometry.

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.

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.

Evidence for tripeptide/H+ co-transport in rabbit renal brush-border membrane vesicles.

Project description:L-Phe-L-Pro-L-Ala is a tripeptide which is hydrolysable almost exclusively by dipeptidyl peptidase IV in rabbit renal brush-border membrane vesicles. In order to delineate the mechanism of the transport of an intact tripeptide across the brush-border membrane, we studied the characteristics of the uptake of [3H]Phe-Pro-Ala in membrane vesicles in which the activity of dipeptidylpeptidase IV was completely inhibited by treatment with di-isopropyl fluorophosphate. In these vesicles, uptake of radiolabel from the tripeptide was found to be Na(+)-independent, but was greatly stimulated by an inwardly directed H+ gradient. The H(+)-gradient-dependent radiolabel uptake appeared to be an active process, because the time course of uptake exhibited an overshoot phenomenon. The process was also electrogenic, being stimulated by an inside-negative membrane potential. Under the uptake-measurement conditions there was no detectable hydrolysis of [3H]Phe-Pro-Ala in the incubation medium when di-isopropyl fluorophosphate-treated membrane vesicles were used. Analysis of intravesicular contents revealed that the radiolabel inside the vesicles was predominantly (greater than 90%) in the form of intact tripeptide. These data indicate that the uptake of radiolabel from [3H]Phe-Pro-Ala in the presence of an inwardly directed H+ gradient represents almost exclusively uptake of intact tripeptide. Uphill transport of the tripeptide was also demonstrable in the presence of an inwardly directed Na+ or K+ gradient, but only if nigericin was added to the medium. Under these conditions, nigericin, an ionophore for Na+, K+ and H+, was expected to generate a transmembrane H+ gradient. Uptake of Phe-Pro-Ala in the presence of a H+ gradient was inhibited by di- and tri-peptides, but not by free amino acids. It is concluded that tripeptide/H+ co-transport is the mechanism of Phe-Pro-Ala uptake in rabbit renal brush-border membrane vesicles.

Amino acid transport in brush-border-membrane vesicles isolated from human small intestine.

Project description:Uptake of L-alanine and L-phenylalanine by purified bursh-border-membrane vesicles isolated from human small intestine was investigated by using a rapid-filtration technique. L-Alanine entered the same osmotically reactive space as D-glucose, indicating that transport into the vesicle rather than binding to the membranes was being observed. The uptake rate for L-alanine was higher in the presence of a Na+ gradient than in the presence of a K+ gradient. In the presence of a Na+ gradient, the lipophilic anion SCN- caused an increase in L-alanine transport, whereas the nearly impermeant SO42- anion decreased the uptake of L-alanine compared with its uptake in the presence of Cl-. The uptake of L-phenylalanine into the brush-border-membrane vesicle was also stimulated by Na+. The results indicate co-transport of Na+ and neutral amino acids inthe human intestinal brush-border membrane.

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.

Cystine uptake by rat renal brush-border vesicles.

Project description:Uptake of L-cystine by brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat renal-cortical tissue was time-dependent and occurred in the absence of cystine reduction. A significant capacity for vesicular binding of cystine was observed. The amount bound increased with time of incubation and could be displaced by thiol reagents. At early time points, cystine uptake measured the transport of cystine into the intravesicular space. Total cystine uptake was mediated by multiple transport systems, including a low-Km high-affinity component which was shared by lysine, arginine, ornithine and glutamine and on which hetero-exchange diffusion of lysine and cystine was demonstrated.
