Abstract
Colitis in interleukin-2-deficient (IL-2(-/-)) mice resembles ulcerative colitis in humans. We studied epithelial transport and barrier function in IL-2(-/-) mice and used this model to characterize mechanisms of diarrhea during intestinal inflammation. (22)Na(+) and (36)Cl(-) fluxes were measured in proximal colon. Net Na(+) flux was reduced from 4.0 +/- 0.5 to 0.8 +/- 0.5 micromol.h(-1).cm(-2), which was paralleled by diminished mRNA and protein expression of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. Net Cl(-) flux was also decreased from 2.2 +/- 1.6 to -2.7 +/- 0.6 micromol.h(-1).cm(-2), indicating impaired Na(+)-Cl(-) absorption. In distal colon, aldosterone-induced electrogenic Na(+) absorption was 6.1 +/- 0.9 micromol.h(-1).cm(-2) in controls and was abolished in IL-2(-/-) mice. Concomitantly, mRNA expression of beta- and gamma-subunits of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) was reduced. Epithelial barrier was studied in proximal colon by impedance technique and mannitol fluxes. In contrast to ulcerative colitis, epithelial resistance was increased and mannitol fluxes were decreased in IL-2(-/-) mice. This was in accord with the findings of reduced ion transport as well as increased expression of tight junction proteins occludin and claudin-1, -2, -3, and -5. In conclusion, the IL-2(-/-) mucosa exhibits impaired electroneutral Na(+)-Cl(-) absorption and electrogenic Na(+) transport due to reduced mRNA and protein expression of NHE3 and ENaC beta- and gamma-subunit mRNA. This represents a model of early intestinal inflammation with absorptive dysfunction due to impaired transport protein expression/function while epithelial barrier is still intact. Therefore, this model is ideal to study regulation of transporter expression independent of barrier defects.

Abstract
Reduced gastrointestinal HCO3- secretion contributes to malabsorption and obstructive syndromes in cystic fibrosis. The apical HCO3- transport pathways in these organs have not been defined. We therefore assessed the involvement of apical Cl-/HCO3- exchangers and anion conductances in basal and cAMP-stimulated duodenal HCO3- secretion. Muscle-stripped rat and rabbit proximal duodena were mounted in Ussing chambers, and electrical parameters, HCO3- secretion rates, and 36Cl-, 22Na+, and 3H+ mannitol fluxes were assessed. mRNA expression levels were measured by a quantitative PCR technique. Removal of Cl- from or addition of 1 mM DIDS to the luminal perfusate markedly decreased basal HCO3- secretion but did not influence the HCO3- secretory response to 8-bromo-cAMP, which was inhibited by luminal 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate. Bidirectional 22Na+ and 36Cl- flux measurements demonstrated an inhibition rather than a stimulation of apical anion exchange during cAMP-stimulated HCO3- secretion. The ratio of Cl- to HCO3- in the anion secretory response was compatible with both Cl- and HCO3- being secreted via the CFTR anion channel. CFTR expression was very high in the duodenal mucosa of both species. We conclude that in rat and rabbit duodena, an apical Cl-/HCO3- exchanger mediates a significant part of basal HCO3- secretion but is not involved in the HCO3- secretory response to cAMP analogs. The inhibitor profile, the strong predominance of Cl- over HCO3- in the anion secretory response, and the high duodenal CFTR expression levels suggest that a major portion of cAMP-stimulated duodenal HCO3- secretion is directly mediated by CFTR.

Abstract
Defective regulation and/or reduced expression of the Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter NKCC1 may contribute to the severe secretory defect that is observed in cystic fibrosis, but data concerning the expression and function of NKCC1 in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-deficient cells are equivocal. We therefore investigated NKCC1 mRNA expression, Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport activity and regulation by cAMP in crypts isolated from the proximal colon of CFTR-containing (CFTR (+/+)) and CFTR-deficient (CFTR (-/-)) mice. mRNA expression levels were determined by semiquantitative PCR, transport rates were measured fluorometrically in 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein acetomethylester (BCECF)-loaded crypts, cytoplasmic volume changes were assessed by confocal microscopy, and [Cl-]i changes were examined by N-(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-6-methoxyquinolinium bromide (MQAE) quenching. NKCC1 mRNA expression levels were not significantly reduced in CFTR (-/-) crypts compared to controls. Azosemide-sensitive NH4+ influx (used as a measure of Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport) was 2.23 +/- 0.72 vs. 1.56 +/- 0.16 mM min-1, and increased by 63.6 % in (+/+) and 87.3 % in (-/-) crypts upon stimulation for 5 min with forskolin. After 20 min of stimulation with forskolin, the Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport rates in (-/-) and (+/+) crypts were identical. Crypt cross-sectional area and [Cl-]i decreased only in (+/+) crypts upon stimulation. In conclusion, normal NKCC1 expression levels, somewhat reduced Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport rates, but preserved activation by cAMP were found in colonic crypts from CFTR (-/-) mice, ruling out a severe dysfunction of the Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter in the CF intestine. Furthermore, these studies establish the existence of a direct, cell-volume- and [Cl-]i-independent activation of colonic NKCC1 by an increase in intracellular cAMP.

Abstract
Basolateral Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransport is essential for intestinal anion secretion, and indirect evidence suggests that it may be stimulated by a rise of intracellular cAMP. We therefore investigated the expression, activity, and regulation by cAMP of the Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransporter isoforms NBC1 and NBCn1 in isolated murine colonic crypts. Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) transport rates were measured fluorometrically in BCECF-loaded crypts, and mRNA expression levels and localization were determined by semiquantitative PCR and in situ hybridization. Acid-activated Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransport rates were 5.07 +/- 0.7 mM/min and increased by 62% after forskolin stimulation. NBC1 mRNA was more abundant in colonic crypts than in surface cells, and crypts expressed far more NBC1 than NBCn1. To investigate whether the cAMP-induced Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransport activation was secondary to secretion-associated changes in HCO(3)(-) or cell volume, we measured potential forskolin-induced changes in intracellular pH and assessed Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) transport activity in CFTR -/- crypts (in which no forskolin-induced cell shrinkage occurs). We found 30% reduced Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) transport rates in CFTR -/- compared with CFTR +/+ crypts but similar Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransport activation by forskolin. These studies establish the existence of an intracellular HCO(3)(-) concentration- and cell volume-independent activation of colonic NBC by an increase in intracellular cAMP.

Abstract
Several Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) isoforms are expressed in the stomach, and NHE1 and NHE2 knockout mice display gastric mucosal atrophy. This study investigated the cellular distribution of the NHE isoforms NHE1, NHE2, NHE3, and NHE4 in rabbit gastric epithelial cells and their regulation by intracellular pH (pH(i)), hyperosmolarity, and an increase in cAMP. Semiquantitative RT-PCR and Northern blot experiments showed high NHE1 and NHE2 mRNA levels in mucous cells and high NHE4 mRNA levels in parietal and chief cells. Fluorescence optical measurements in cultured rabbit parietal and mucous cells using the pH-sensitive dye 2',7'-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein and NHE isoform-specific inhibitors demonstrated that in both cell types, intracellular acidification activates NHE1 and NHE2, whereas hyperosmolarity activates NHE1 and NHE4. The relative contribution of the different isoforms to pH(i)- and hyperosmolarity-activated Na(+)/H(+) exchange in the different cell types paralleled their relative expression levels. cAMP elevation also stimulated NHE4, whereas an increase in osmolarity above a certain threshold further increased NHE1 and not NHE4 activity. We conclude that in rabbit gastric epithelium, NHE1 and NHE4 regulate cell volume and NHE1 and NHE2 regulate pH(i). The high NHE1 and NHE2 expression levels in mucous cells may reflect their special need for pH(i) regulation during high gastric acidity. NHE4 is likely involved in volume regulation during acid secretion.

Abstract
1. The anion exchanger isoform 2 (AE2) gene encodes three subtypes (AE2a, b and c), which have different N-termini and tissue distributions. AE2 is expressed at high levels in the stomach, where it is thought to mediate basolateral base exit during acid production. The present study investigated if the three AE2 subtypes are differentially expressed and regulated in different cell types within the gastric mucosa. 2. The cloning strategy to obtain rabbit AE2a, b and c cDNAs combined genomic PCR and RT-PCR based on primers deduced from the rat sequences. Semiquantitative RT-PCR using homologous primers revealed much higher AE2 mRNA expression in rabbit parietal cells (PCs) than in mucous cells (MCs). The subtype expression pattern was AE2b >> AE2c > or = AE2a in PCs and AE2a >AE2b >> AE2c in MCs. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of a highly conserved protein kinase C (PKC) consensus sequence in the AE2a alternative N-terminus. 3. Maximal Cl(-)-HCO(3)(-) exchange rates, measured fluorometrically in BCECF-loaded cultured gastric cells, were much higher in PCs than MCs. PKC activation by phorbol ester stimulated maximal Cl(-)-HCO(3)(-) exchange rates in MCs but not in PCs, whereas forskolin had no effect in each cell type. 4. In summary, rabbit PCs and MCs, which originate from the same gastric stem cell population, display a completely different AE2 subtype expression pattern. Therefore, AE2 subtype expression is not organ specific but cell type specific. The different regulation of anion exchange in parietal and mucous cells suggests that AE2 subtypes may be differentially regulated.

Abstract
In a search for the HCO(3)(-) supply mechanisms to the enterocyte we cloned and sequenced an intestinal subtype of the Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransporter isoform I (dNBC1), which turned out to be identical to the pancreatic NBC1 subtype (pNBC1). Within the intestine, we found particularly high NBC1 expression levels in the duodenum and proximal colon. Experiments with stripped rabbit duodenum in Ussing-chambers revealed that Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport (NBC) and CO(2) hydration/Na(+)/H(+) exchange were equally important duodenal HCO(3)(-) supply pathways and were both upregulated during cAMP-mediated secretion. In the proximal colon, however, HCO(3)(-) secretion was low but NBC1 expression even higher than in the duodenum. Ussing-chamber experiments with an NBC-specific inhibitor revealed that NBC, coupled to basolateral Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange, was an important alternative Cl(-) supply pathway to Na(+)K(+)2Cl(-) cotransport (NKCC) during cAMP-stimulated colonic Cl(-) secretion. To investigate the functional integrity of anion uptake pathways in the absence of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), we fluorometrically assessed NBC and NKCC transport rates and cell volume before and during forskolin-stimulation in isolated colonic crypts from normal and CFTR (-/-) mice. Although forskolin stimulation decreased cell volume only in normal, not in CFTR (-/-) crypts, it activated NBC and NKCC to a similar degree in both normal and CFTR (-/-) crypts. We conclude that, depending on the intestinal segment, NBC1 plays an important role in basolateral HCO(3)(-) or Cl(-) uptake. Expression and activation by cAMP is preserved in CFTR (-/-) intestine.

Abstract
AE2 is one of three known isoforms of the anion exchanger (AE) gene family. The use of alternative promoters, resulting in a tissue-specific transcript pattern, was reported for all AE genes. Three N-terminal variant AE2 subtypes are described: AE2a, AE2b, and AE2c. Although the basolaterally located parietal cell anion exchanger is known to be an AE2, the molecular identity of the basolateral and apical anion exchangers throughout the gut are still unknown. This article summarizes functional, immunohistochemical, and Western blot data demonstrating the basolateral localization of the gastric and intestinal AE2 in rabbit, mouse, and rat, and showing the AE2 subtype mRNA expression pattern in the stomach and along the intestine of rabbit and mouse: AE2a is expressed in all studied tissues, but most strongly in the colon; AE2b is expressed mainly in the stomach; and AE2c is detected nearly exclusively in the stomach. Further investigation is necessary to characterize the apical anion transport protein involved in NaCl absorption and HCO3- secretion in the gut.

Abstract
The stomach, duodenum, colon, and pancreas secrete HCO3- ions into the lumen. Although the importance of HCO3- secretion for the maintenance of mucosal integrity, a normal digestion, and the reabsorption of Cl- has been well established, the molecular nature of the apical and basolateral HCO3- transporting proteins has remained largely unknown. Functional studies have suggested that a Na+HCO3- cotransport system, similar but not identical to the well-characterized Na+HCO3- cotransporter in the basolateral membrane of the kidney proximal tubule, is present in duodenal and colonic enterocytes, pancreatic ducts cells, and gastric cells and involved in HCO3- uptake from the interstitium. This report describes our work towards understanding the molecular nature, cellular origin, and functional relevance of the Na+HCO3- cotransporter(s) in the stomach and intestine and reviews work by others on the function and localization of Na+HCO3- cotransport processes in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS HCO(3)(-) supply to the enterocyte is rate limiting for duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion (J(HCO3-)). This study defines the molecular nature of the major HCO(3)(-) uptake pathways in rabbit duodenocytes and investigates their physiologic significance and regulation during basal and stimulated J(HCO3-). METHODS & RESULTS pH gradient-driven (22)Na(+) uptake into duodenal basolateral membrane vesicles was partly HCO(3)(-) dependent, stilbene sensitive, and therefore mediated by Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport, and partly HCO(3)(-) independent, Hoechst 642 sensitive, and therefore mediated by the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform NHE1. Semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed high duodenal expression levels for the NBC1 isoform of the Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransporter gene family and NHE1. Cloning and comparison of full-length rabbit with human gastrointestinal and kidney NBC1 subtype revealed a conserved protein kinase A consensus sequence in the cytoplasmic N-terminus of the gastrointestinal NBC1. Inhibition of either Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport or carbonic anhydrase reduced ouabain-sensitive J(HCO3-) in in vitro rabbit duodenal mucosae by approximately 50%, but did not affect 8-Br-cAMP-induced DeltaJ(HCO3-), suggesting cAMP-mediated up-regulation of the alternative pathway. However, inhibition of both Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport and either carbonic anhydrase or NHE1 strongly reduced DeltaJ(HCO3-). CONCLUSIONS NBC1 and NHE1 are the major base importers in rabbit duodenocytes. Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport and CO(2) hydration/Na(+)/H(+) exchange are equally important pathways for duodenal HCO(3)(-) supply and are up-regulated during cAMP-mediated stimulation.

Abstract
Concomitant Na(+)/H(+) and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange activation occurs during stimulation of acid secretion in cultured rabbit parietal cells, possibly related to a necessity for volume regulation during the secretory process. We investigated whether cytoplasmic volume changes occur during secretagogue stimulation of cultured rabbit parietal cells. Cells were loaded with the fluorescent dye calcein, and the calcein concentration within a defined cytoplasmic volume was recorded by confocal microscopy. Forskolin at 10(-5) M, carbachol at 10(-4) M, and hyperosmolarity (400 mosmol) resulted in a rapid increase in the cytoplasmic dye concentration by 21 +/- 6, 9 +/- 4, and 23 +/- 5%, respectively, indicative of cell shrinkage, followed by recovery to baseline within several minutes, indicative of regulatory volume increase (RVI). Depolarization by 5 mM barium resulted in a decrease of the cytoplasmic dye concentration by 10 +/- 2%, indicative of cell swelling, with recovery within 15 min, and completely prevented forskolin- or carbachol-induced cytoplasmic shrinkage. Na(+)/H(+) exchange inhibitors slightly reduced the initial cell shrinkage and significantly slowed the RVI, whereas 100 microM bumetanide had no significant effect on either parameter. We conclude that acid secretagoguges induce a rapid loss of parietal cell cytoplasmic volume, followed by RVI, which is predominantly mediated by Na(+)/H(+) and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange.

Abstract
Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is thought to participate in M3 muscarinic receptor-mediated acid secretion in gastric parietal cells. During acid secretion tubulovesicles carrying H+/K+-ATPase fuse with the apical membrane. We localized Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II from highly purified rabbit gastric tubulovesicles using Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II isoform-specific antibodies, in vitro phosphorylation and pharmacological inhibition of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II activity by the potent Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II inhibitor KN-62. The presence of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in tubulovesicles was shown by immunoblot detection of both Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-gamma (54 kDa) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-delta (56.5 kDa). The immunoprecipitated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II from tubulovesicles showed Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity by phosphorylating autocamtide-II, a specific synthetic Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II substrate. KN-62 inhibited the in vitro autophosphorylation of tubulovesicle-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (IC50 = 11 nM). During the search for potential Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II substrates we identified different proteins associated with tubulovesicles, such as synaptophysin and beta-tubulin immunoreactivity, which were identified using specific antibodies. These targets are known to participate in intracellular membrane traffic. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is thought to play an important role in regulating tubulovesicular motor activity and therefore in acid secretion.

Abstract
We have characterized expression of anion exchanger 2 (AE2) mRNA and protein in the mouse intestine. AE2 mRNA abundance was higher in colon than in more proximal segments. AE2a mRNA was more abundant than AE2b mRNA throughout the intestine, and AE2c mRNA was expressed at very low levels. This AE2 mRNA pattern contrasted with that in mouse stomach, in which AE2c > AE2b > AE2a. AE2 polypeptide abundance as detected by immunoblot qualitatively paralleled that of mRNA, whereas AE2 immunostaining exhibited a more continuous decrease in intensity from colon to duodenum. AE2 polypeptide was more abundant in colonic surface cells than in crypts, whereas ileal crypts and villi exhibited similar AE2 abundance. AE2 was also observed in mural and vascular smooth muscle. Localization of AE2 epitopes was restricted to the basolateral membranes of epithelial cells throughout the intestine with three exceptions. Under mild fixation conditions, anti-AE2 amino acids (aa) 109-122 detected nonpolarized immunostaining of ileal enterocytes and of Paneth cell granule membranes. An epitope detected by anti-AE2 aa 1224-1237 was also localized to subapical regions of Brunner's gland ducts of duodenum and upper jejunum. These localization studies will aid in the interpretation of anion exchanger function measured in epithelial sheets, isolated cells, and membrane vesicles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The gastric epithelium protects itself against luminal acid by secreting HCO3--rich fluid into the mucous layer and by HCO3--dependent intracellular pH regulation, but the basolateral HCO3- uptake mechanisms are incompletely characterized. This study examined the expression and functional significance of the Na+/HCO3- cotransporters NBC1 and NBC2 in rabbit gastric epithelial cells. METHODS Rabbit NBC1 and NBC2 complementary DNA fragments were cloned and sequenced, and cellular expression levels were assessed by semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction. Na+/HCO3- cotransport activity was measured fluorometrically in cultured rabbit parietal and mucous cells. RESULTS NBC1 expression was 4.5-fold lower in the stomach than kidney cortex and 5.5-fold higher in mucous than parietal cells. NBC2 expression in the stomach was much lower than in the eye, approximately 4-fold lower than NBC1 expression in the stomach, and 2.5-fold higher in mucous than parietal cells. The Na+- and HCO3--dependent, dimethylamiloride-insensitive (which at 500 micromol/L completely inhibits all Na+/H+ exchanger isoforms) base influx rates were 4.6 +/- 0.02 and 16.2 +/- 0.04 mmol/L/min in acidified parietal and mucous cells, respectively, and were not significantly different in the absence of Cl-. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that NBC1 and NBC2 are expressed in rabbit stomach, with high levels in mucous cells where Na+/HCO3- cotransport is the major base-importing mechanism in the presence of CO2/HCO3-.

Abstract
Rabbit parietal cells express three Na+/H+ exchanger isoforms (NHE1, NHE2, and NHE4). We investigated the effects of carbachol, histamine, and forskolin on Na+/H+ exchange activity and acid formation in cultured rabbit parietal cells and tested the effect of NHE isoform-specific inhibition on agonist-induced Na+/H+ exchange. Carbachol (10(-4) M) was the weakest acid secretagogue but caused the strongest Na+/H+ exchange activation, which was completely blocked by 1 microM HOE-642 (selective for NHE1); histamine (10(-4) M) and forskolin (10(-5) M) were stronger stimulants of [14C]aminopyrine accumulation but weaker stimulants of Na+/H+ exchange activity. HOE-642 (1 microM) reduced forskolin-stimulated Na+/H+ exchange activity by 35%, and 25 microM HOE-642 (inhibits NHE1 and -2) inhibited an additional 13%, but 500 microM dimethyl amiloride (inhibits NHE1, -2, and -4) caused complete inhibition. The presence of 5% CO2-HCO-3 markedly reduced agonist-stimulated H+ efflux rates, suggesting that the anion exchanger is also activated. Hyperosmolarity also activated Na+/H+ exchange. Our data suggest that, in rabbit parietal cells, Ca2+-dependent stimulation causes a selective activation of NHE1, whereas cAMP-dependent stimulation activates NHE1, NHE2, and more strongly NHE4. Because intracellular pH (pHi) did not change in the presence of CO2-HCO-3 and concomitant activation of Na+/H+ and anion exchange is one of the volume regulatory mechanisms, we speculate that the physiological significance of secretagogue-induced Na+/H+ exchange activation may not be related to pHi but to volume regulation during acid secretion.

Abstract
1. Stimulation of chemotaxis of human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs) with the chemoattractive peptide fMLP (N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe) is paralleled by profound morphological and metabolic alterations like changes of intracellular pH (pHi) and cell shape. The present study was performed to investigate the interrelation of cell volume (CV) regulatory ion transport, pHi and migration of fMLP stimulated PMNs. 2. Addition of fMLP to PMNs stimulated directed migration in Boyden chamber assays and was accompanied by rapid initial intracellular acidification and cell swelling. 3. Inhibition of the Na+/H+ exchanger suppressed fMLP stimulated cell migration, accelerated the intracellular acidification and inhibited the fMLP-induced cell swelling. 4. Step omission of extracellular Na+ caused intracellular acidification, which was accelerated by subsequent addition of gastric H+/K+ ATPase inhibitor SCH 28080, or by omission of extracellular K+ ions. In addition Na+ removal caused cell swelling, which was further enhanced by fMLP. 5. H+/K+ATPase inhibitors omeprazole and SCH 28080 inhibited stimulated migration and blunted the fMLP-induced increase in CV. 6. Increasing extracellular osmolarity by addition of mannitol to the extracellular solution caused cell shrinkage followed by regulatory volume increase, partially due to activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger. In fMLP-stimulated cells the CV increase was counteracted by simultaneous addition of mannitol. Under these conditions the fMLP stimulated migration was inhibited. 7. The antibacterial activity of PMNs was not modified by Hoe 694 or omeprazole. 8. Western analysis with a monoclonal anti gastric H+/K+ ATPase beta-subunit antibody detected a glycosylated 35 kD core protein in lysates of mouse and human gastric mucosa as well as in human PMNs. 9. The results indicate that fMLP leads to cell swelling of PMNs due to activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger and a K+-dependent H+-extruding mechanism, presumably an H+/K+ ATPase. Inhibition of these ion transporters suppresses the increase in CV and precludes PMNs from stimulated migration.

Abstract
Mixed infection of cells with both Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMLV) and related or heterologous viruses produces progeny pseudotype virions bearing the MoMLV genome encapsulated by the envelope of the other virus. In this study, pseudotype formation between MoMLV and the prototype parainfluenza virus Sendai virus (SV) was investigated. We report for the first time that SV infection of MoMLV producer cells results in the formation of MoMLV(SV) pseudotypes, which display a largely extended host range compared to that of MoMLV particles. This could be associated with SV hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (SV-HN) glycoprotein incorporation into MoMLV envelopes. In contrast, solitary incorporation of the other SV glycoprotein, SV fusion protein (SV-F), resulted in a distinct and narrow extension of the MoMLV host range to asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R)-positive cells (e.g., cultured human hepatoma cells). Since stably ASGP-R cDNA-transfected MDCK cells, but not parental ASGP-R-negative MDCK cells, were found to be transduced by MoMLV(SV-F) pseudotypes and transduction of ASGP-R-expressing cells was found to be inhibited by ASGP-R antiserum, a direct proof for the ASGP-R-restricted tropism of MoMLV(SV-F) pseudotypes was provided. Cultivation of ASGP-R-positive HepG2 hepatoma cells on Transwell-COL membranes led to a significant enhancement of MoMLV(SV-F) titers in subsequent flowthrough transduction experiments, thereby suggesting the importance of ASGP-R accessibility at the basolateral domain for MoMLV(SV-F) pseudotype transduction. The availability of such ASGP-R-restricted MoMLV(SV-F)-pseudotyped vectors opens up new perspectives for future liver-restricted therapeutic gene transfer applications.

Abstract
1. Most segments of the gastrointestinal tract secrete HCO3-, but the molecular nature of the secretory mechanisms has not been identified. We had previously speculated that the regulator for intestinal electrogenic HCO3- secretion is the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) channel. To prove this hypothesis, we have now measured HCO3- secretion by pH-stat titration, and recorded the electrical parameters of in vitro duodenum, jejunum and ileum of mice deficient in the gene for the CFTR protein ('CF-mice') and their normal littermates. 2. Basal HCO3- secretory rates were reduced in all small intestinal segments of CF mice. Forskolin, PGE2, 8-bromo-cAMP and VIP (cAMP-dependent agonists), heat-stable enterotoxin of Escherichia coli (STa), guanylin and 8-bromo-cGMP (cGMP-dependent agonists) and carbachol (Ca2+ dependent) stimulated both the short-circuit current (Isc) and the HCO3- secretory rate (JHCO3-) in all intestinal segments in normal mice, whereas none of these agonists had any effect on JHCO3- in the intestine of CF mice. 3. To investigate whether Cl(-)-HCO3- exchangers, which have been implicated in mediating the response to some of these agonists in the intestine, were similarly active in the small intestine of normal and CF mice, we studied Cl- gradient-driven 36Cl- uptake into brush-border membrane (BBM) vesicles isolated from normal and CF mouse small intestine. Both the time course and the peak value for 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2',2-disulphonic acid (DIDS)-inhibited 36Cl- uptake was similar in normal and CF mice BBM vesicles. 4. In summary, the results demonstrate that the presence of the CFTR channel is necessary for agonist-induced stimulation of electrogenic HCO3- secretion in all segments of the small intestine, and all three intracellular signal transduction pathways stimulate HCO3- secretion exclusively via activation of the CFTR channel.

Abstract
Cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinases (cGKs) mediate cellular signaling induced by nitric oxide and cGMP. Mice deficient in the type II cGK were resistant to Escherichia coli STa, an enterotoxin that stimulates cGMP accumulation and intestinal fluid secretion. The cGKII-deficient mice also developed dwarfism that was caused by a severe defect in endochondral ossification at the growth plates. These results indicate that cGKII plays a central role in diverse physiological processes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Guanylin and heat-stable enterotoxin (STa) stimulate intestinal Cl- secretion via activation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR)-encoded Cl- channel. It was speculated that CFTR activation also regulates electrogenic duodenal HCO3- secretion. Therefore, the effect of guanylin/STa and other secretagogues on rat duodenal HCO3- secretion was studied. METHODS The HCO3- secretory rate of in vitro rat proximal duodenum was determined by pH stat titration and paracellular permeability by 3H-mannitol fluxes, bidirectional 36Cl- fluxes were measured, and the short-circuit current (Isc) was recorded. RESULTS Luminal guanylin and STa concentration dependently stimulated the HCO3- secretory rate and Isc. Guanylin-stimulated HCO3- secretion was independent of luminal Cl-, inhibited by the Cl- channel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate, and additive to the HCO3- secretory rate stimulated by glucagon and carbachol but not by the tested adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent agonists. The ratio of the HCO3- secretory rate/Isc stimulated by the tested guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent agonists was markedly higher than the cAMP-dependent agonists. Prostaglandin E2 and 8-bromo-cAMP but not STa/guanylin also transiently increased paracellular permeability. CONCLUSIONS Guanylin and STa stimulate electrogenic HCO3- secretion in rat duodenum, most likely via CFTR Cl- channel activation, but the different relationship for HCO3- to Isc in cGMP-than in cAMP-stimulated anion secretion suggests a different cellular source and/or signaling pathways.

Abstract
We studied the influence of interstitial buffer capacity and CO2-HCO3- on oxyntic cell intracellular pH (pHi) in intact frog gastric mucosa. Oxyntic cells in stripped gastric mucosa of Rana esculenta were loaded with the pH-sensitive dye 2',7'-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein, and pHi was assessed fluorometrically. In the presence of a constant serosal and luminal pH, oxyntic cell pHi was dependent on the serosal but not the luminal concentration of cell-impermeable buffer ions such as N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, and 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid. The stepwise increase in oxyntic cell pHi from 6.74 +/- 0.05 with 1 mM HEPES to 7.23 +/- 0.08 was almost completely inhibited by removal of serosal Na+ and by amiloride and dimethyl amiloride, suggesting that it was largely due to Na+/H+ exchange. Increasing the serosal concentration of a CO2-HCO3- buffer from 1% CO2-4 mM HCO3- to 10% CO2-40 mM HCO3- increased oxyntic cell pHi from 7.03 +/- 0.06 to 7.39 +/- 0.07. This CO2-HCO(3-)-dependent pHi increase was also Na+ and amiloride sensitive, but high HCO3- concentrations increased pHi even in the absence of Na+, K+, or Cl-, and in the presence of omeprazole, bafilomycin A1, or acetazolamide. We suggest that in intact frog gastric mucosa, cellular proton extrusion acidifies the interstitial pH immediately adjacent to the basolateral membrane of the oxyntic cells in the absence of a high interstitial buffer capacity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. The purpose of this study was to look for evidence of a pH-sensitive modifier site on the parietal cell basolateral anion exchanger, determine the pH range in which allosteric regulation takes place, investigate the effect of the osmolarity on internal pH (pHi) dependence and compare it with that of the ileum brush-border anion exchanger. 2. When the pHi in parietal cell basolateral membrane (BLM) vesicles was increased, the rate of Cl(-)-gradient-driven 36Cl- uptake increased from 6.03 +/- 2.24 to 38.09 +/- 3.33 nmol (mg protein)-1 with the steep increase in anion exchange rates occurring within a narrow pH range between pHi 7.0 and 7.5. This was due to allosteric activation by internal OH- and not due to a change in driving force, since the driving force for maximal exchange rates was provided by the outwardly directed Cl- gradient. 3. The pHi dependency curve of parietal cell BLM anion exchange rates was shifted to the left by 0.25 pH units by increasing the osmolarity of the intra- and extravesicular solutions from 300 to 380 mosmol l-1. Thus cell shrinking may activate the parietal cell anion exchanger without a change in pHi and without phosphorylation of the anion exchanger protein. 4. In ileum brush-border membranes, the pHi-dependent increase in the rate of Cl(-)-gradient-driven 36Cl- uptake was more gradual and the half-maximal anion exchange rate was attained at lower pHi (pH 6.5). Increasing the osmolarity from 300 to 500 mosmol l-1 had no effect on pH dependence. 5. We conclude that the parietal cell basolateral and ileum brush-border anion exchangers possess an internal modifier site for allosteric activation by OH-, but the pH range in which allosteric regulation occurs differs between the two exchangers, as does the effect of an increase in osmolarity. Since current evidence suggests that both the parietal cell basolateral and the ileum brush-border anion exchanger are encoded by the AE2 gene, the differences in pHi dependence between the two may be due to alternative splicing, post-transcriptional modification, or the different membrane environment. 6. The pHi range for allosteric activation found in this study would suggest that for both the ileum and the parietal cell anion exchanger, but especially for the latter, a potentiating effect of the allosteric activation and the HCO3- availability occurs within the physiological pHi range and can cause dramatic increases in maximal anion exchange rates with increasing pHi.

Abstract
In many cell types, the regulation of intracellular pH (pHi) is different in the presence vs. absence of HCO3-. We investigated the pHi and HCO3- dependence of proton extrusion and anion exchange rates in isolated rabbit parietal cells loaded with the pH-sensitive dye 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF). In Cl(-)-depleted parietal cells, the dependence of maximal proton efflux rate on pHi showed a strong inverse correlation but was identical in the presence and absence of HCO3-. Amiloride and Na+ removal inhibited proton extrusion rates to a similar degree with or without HCO3-, whereas 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) had no effect. This suggests that a Na(+)-H+ exchanger is the major acid extrusion ion transporter under these experimental conditions. In Cl(-)-containing cells, there was also some Na(+)-independent, extracellular HCO(3-)- and intracellular Cl(-)-dependent, DIDS-inhibitable pHi recovery from an acid load, most likely due to intracellular Cl(-)-extracellular HCO3- exchange. Recovery from an alkaline load was primarily mediated by anion exchange, and the dependence of maximal anion exchange rates on pHi was very different in the absence and presence of HCO3-. In its absence, maximal anion exchange (Cl(-)-OH-) rates increased slowly over the tested pHi range from 6.4 to 7.8. In the presence of HCO3-, however, there was an S-shaped dependence of maximal flux rates on pHi, with a steep increase in flux rates between 6.8 and 7.5.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
