Abstract
The hormonally active form of vitamin D(3), 1α,25(OH)(2)-vitamin D(3), acts in intestine, its major target tissue, where its actions are of regulatory and developmental importance: regulation of intracellular calcium through modulation of second messengers and activation of mitogenic cascades leading to cell proliferation. Several causes have been postulated to modify the hormone response in intestinal cells with ageing, among them, alterations of vitamin D receptor (VDR) levels and binding sites, reduced expression of G-proteins and hormone signal transduction changes. The current review summarizes the actual knowledge regarding the molecular and biochemical basis of age-impaired 1α,25(OH)(2)-vitamin D(3) receptor-mediated signaling in intestinal cells. A fundamental understanding why the hormone functions are impaired with age will enhance our knowledge of its importance in intestinal cell physiology.

Abstract
Besides being a Ca²-regulating hormone, parathyroid hormone (PTH) has also been shown to regulate epithelial transport of certain ions, such as Cl, HCO₃, and Na, particularly in the kidney. Although the intestinal epithelium also expressed PTH receptors, little was known regarding its mechanism in the regulation of intestinal ion transport. We investigated the ion regulatory role of PTH in intestinal epithelium-like Caco-2 monolayer by Ussing chamber technique and alternating current impedance spectroscopy. It was found that Caco-2 cells rapidly responded to PTH within 1 min by increasing apical HCO₃- secretion. CFTR served as the principal route for PTH-stimulated apical HCOV efflux, which was abolished by various CFTR inhibitors, namely, NPPB, glycine hydrazide-101 (GlyH-101), and CFTRinh-172, as well as by small interfering RNA against CFTR. Concurrently, the plasma membrane resistance was decreased with no changes in the plasma membrane capacitance or paracellular permeability. HCOV was probably supplied by basolateral uptake via the electrogenic Na⁺-HCO₃⁻ cotransporter and by methazolamide-sensitive carbonic anhydrase, while the resulting intracellular H⁺ might be extruded by both apical and basolateral Na/H exchangers. Furthermore, the PTH-stimulated HCO₃-secretion was markedly reduced by protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor (PKI 14-22 amide) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors (wortmannin and LY-294002), but not by intracellular Ca²⁺ chelator (BAPTA-AM) or protein kinase C inhibitor (GF-109203X). In conclusion, the present study provided evidence that PTH directly and rapidly stimulated apical HCO₃- secretion through CFTR in PKA- and PI3K-dependent manner, which was a novel noncalciotropic, ion regulatory action of PTH in the intestinal epithelium.

Abstract
Dysregulation of Ca(2+) signaling following oxidative stress is an important pathophysiological mechanism of many chronic neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, age-related macular degeneration, glaucomatous and diabetic retinopathies. However, the underlying mechanisms of disturbed intracellular Ca(2+) signaling remain largely unknown. We here describe a novel mechanism for increased intracellular Ca(2+) release following oxidative stress in a neuronal cell line. Using an experimental approach that included quantitative polymerase chain reaction, quantitative immunoblotting, microfluorimetry and the optical imaging of intracellular Ca(2+) release, we show that sub-lethal tert-butyl hydroperoxide-mediated oxidative stress result in a selective up-regulation of type-2 inositol-1,4,5,-trisphophate receptors. This oxidative stress mediated change was detected both at the transcriptional and translational level and functionally resulted in increased Ca(2+) release into the nucleoplasm from the membranes of the nuclear envelope at a given receptor-specific stimulus. Our data describe a novel source of Ca(2+) dysregulation induced by oxidative stress with potential relevance for differential subcellular Ca(2+) signaling specifically within the nucleus and the development of novel neuroprotective strategies in neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
In previous works, we found that PTH promotes the apoptosis of human Caco-2 intestinal cells, through the mitochondrial pathway. This study was conducted to investigate the modulation of different players implicated in the AKT survival pathway in PTH-induced intestinal cell apoptosis. We demonstrate, for the first time, that PTH modulates AKT phosphorylation in response to apoptosis via the serine/threonine phosphatase PP2A. PTH treatment induces an association of AKT with the catalytic subunit of PP2A and increases its phosphatase activity. PTH also promotes the translocation of PP2Ac from the cytosol to the mitochondria. Furthermore, our results suggest that PP2A plays a role in hormone-dependent Caco-2 cells viability and in the cleavage of caspase-3 and its substrate PARP. The cAMP pathway also contributes to PTH-mediated AKT dephosphorylation while PKC and p38 MAPK do not participate in this event. Finally, we show that PTH induces the dissociation between 14-3-3 and AKT, but the significance of this response remains unknown. In correlation with PTH-induced Bad dephosphorylation, the hormone also decreases the basal association of 14-3-3 and Bad. Overall, our data suggest that in Caco-2 cells, PP2A and the cAMP pathway act in concert to inactivate the AKT survival pathway in PTH-induced intestinal cell apoptosis.

Abstract
Apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death, is a process fundamental to normal growth and development, immune response, tissue remodeling after injury or insult, and homeostasis of the intestinal epithelium. Recently, it has become apparent that apoptosis is a crucial process in skeletal development and homeostasis, and that signaling by the parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptor can either promote or suppress apoptosis depending on the cellular context. In this study, we evaluated the role of PTH in intestinal apoptosis using human colonic Caco-2 cells. To that end, Caco-2 cells were exposed to PTH (10−8 mol/L) for 1–5 days. Evaluation of cell survival by use of resazurin staining, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) staining, and crystal violet staining revealed that PTH treatment diminishes the number of viable cells. Assessment of cells after PTH treatment by use of propidium iodide showed that the hormone increased the number of red-stained (dead) cells (178%, 5 days). Moreover, we found that the hormone induced disruption of actin filaments with changes to cellular shape, alteration of cell-to-cell junctions, externalization of membrane phosphatidylserine, chromatin condensation, and DNA fragmentation of the nucleus, which are morphological features consistent with apoptosis. In addition, PTH treatment revealed a cytosolic staining pattern of 14-3-3. However, the significance of such differential localization for 14-3-3 function remains unknown. Taken together, the present study suggests that PTH promotes apoptosis in Caco-2 intestinal cells.

Abstract
Cell culture techniques providing retention of the polarized enterocyte morphology has allowed, for the first time, comparison of parathyroid hormone (PTH)- and 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) [25(OH)D(3)]-induced (45)Ca uptake with membrane trafficking events discerned using confocal microscopy. Treatment of cells with 65 pM bPTH(1-34) promoted enhanced (45)Ca uptake between 1 and 10 min after peptide. The protein kinase A (PKA) antagonist, RpcAMP inhibited hormone-mediated uptake. At the microscopic level, cells labeled with the endocytic tracking dye FM1-43 revealed increased punctate staining 50-550s after hormone. Pretreatment of cells with RpcAMP abolished this pattern of staining. The calcium indicator dye fluo-3 AM revealed faint punctate labeling in controls, with increased bands of punctate labeling in the apical region of the cells after peptide hormone, and ultimately the basal region. Parallel studies conducted with the metabolite 25(OH)D(3) resulted in a slower stimulation of (45)Ca uptake 5-10 min after steroid, which was also inhibited by preincubation with RpcAMP. Cells labeled with FM1-43 and then treated with steroid showed no change in distribution of fluorescence during the 10 min incubation period. Confocal microscopy with fluo-3 revealed intense apical fluorescence--that after steroid --streamed to a perinuclear position, and ultimately the basal area. Uniformly diffuse staining, which would indicate cytoplasmic calcium transport, was observed only in controls. Membrane trafficking and compartmentalized calcium appear to be integral to agonist mediated cation transport.

Abstract
Aging is associated with alterations in Ca2+homeostasis, which predisposes elder people to hyperparathyroidism and osteoporosis. Intestinal Ca2+absorption decreases with aging and, in particular, active transport of Ca2+by the duodenum. In addition, there are age-related changes in renal Ca2+handling. To examine age-related changes in expression of the renal and intestinal epithelial Ca2+channels, control (TRPV5+/+) and TRPV5 knockout (TRPV5−/−) mice aged 10, 30, and 52 wk were studied. Aging of TRPV5+/+mice resulted in a tendency toward increased renal Ca2+excretion and significantly decreased intestinal Ca2+absorption, which was accompanied by reduced expression of TRPV5 and TRPV6, respectively, despite increased serum 1,25(OH)2D3levels. Similarly, in TRPV5−/−mice the existing renal Ca2+loss was more pronounced in elder animals, whereas the compensatory intestinal Ca2+absorption and TRPV6 expression declined with aging. In both mice strains, aging resulted in a resistance to 1,25(OH)2D3and diminished renal vitamin D receptor mRNA levels, whereas serum Ca2+levels remained constant. Furthermore, 52-wk-old TRPV5−/−mice showed severe hyperparathyroidism, whereas PTH levels in elder TRPV5+/+mice remained normal. In 52-wk-old TRPV5−/−mice, serum osteocalcin levels were increased in accordance with the elevated PTH levels, suggesting an increased bone turnover in these mice. In conclusion, downregulation of TRPV5 and TRPV6 is likely involved in the impaired Ca2+(re)absorption during aging. Moreover, TRPV5−/−mice likely develop age-related hyperparathyroidism and osteoporotic characteristics before TRPV5+/+mice, demonstrating the importance of the epithelial Ca2+channels in Ca2+homeostasis.

Abstract
In the present study, we examined the role of Parathyroid hormone (PTH) on the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) members of the MAPK family as it relates to ageing by measuring hormone-induced changes in their activity in enterocytes isolated from young (3 month old) and aged (24 month old) rats. Our results show that PTH induces a transient activation of JNK 1/2, peaking at 1 min (+threefold). The hormone also stimulates JNK 1/2 tyrosine phosphorylation, in a dose-dependent fashion, this effect being maximal at 10 nM. PTH-induced JNK 1/2 phosphorylation was suppressed by its selective inhibitor SP600125. Moreover, hormone-dependent activation of JNK 1/2 was dependent on calcium, since pretreatment of cells with BAPTA-AM or EGTA blocked PTH effects. With ageing, the response to PTH was significantly reduced. JNK basal protein expression was not different in the enterocytes from young and aged rats, however, basal protein phosphorylation increased with ageing. PTH did not stimulate, within 1-10 min, the basal activity and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in rat intestinal cells. The hormone increased enterocyte DNA synthesis; the response was dose-dependent and decreased (-40%) with ageing. In agreement with the mitogenic role of the MAPK cascades, this effect was blocked by specific inhibitors of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) 1/2 and JNK 1/2. The results obtained in this work expand our knowledge on the mechanism of action of PTH in duodenal cells.

Abstract
A constant extracellular Ca2+ concentration is required for numerous physiological functions at tissue and cellular levels. This suggests that minor changes in Ca2+ will be corrected by appropriate homeostatic systems. The system regulating Ca2+ homeostasis involves several organs and hormones. The former are mainly the kidneys, skeleton, intestine and the parathyroid glands. The latter comprise, amongst others, the parathyroid hormone, vitamin D and calcitonin. Progress has recently been made in the identification and characterisation of Ca2+ transport proteins CaT1 and ECaC and this has provided new insights into the molecular mechanisms of Ca2+ transport in cells. The G-protein coupled calcium-sensing receptor, responsible for the exquisite ability of the parathyroid gland to respond to small changes in serum Ca2+ concentration was discovered about a decade ago. Research has focussed on the molecular mechanisms determining the serum levels of 1,25(OH)2D3, and on the transcriptional activity of the vitamin D receptor. The aim of recent work has been to elucidate the mechanisms and the intracellular signalling pathways by which parathyroid hormone, vitamin D and calcitonin affect Ca2+ homeostasis. This article summarises recent advances in the understanding and the molecular basis of physiological Ca2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
In this study we analyzed, for the first time, alterations in phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity and response to parathyroid hormone (PTH) in rat enterocytes with aging. We found that PTH, rapidly stimulate arachidonic acid (AA) release in rat duodenal cells (+1- to 2-fold), an effect that is greatly potentiated by aging (+4-fold). We also found that hormone-induced AA release in young animals is Ca2+-dependent via cPLA2, while AA released by PTH in cells from aged rats is due to the activation of cPLA2 and the Ca2+-independent PLA2 (iPLA2). In enterocytes from 3 months old rats, PTH induced, in a time and dose-dependent fashion, the phosphorylation of cPLA2 on serine 505, with a maximum at 10 min (+7-fold). Basal levels of cPLA2 serine-phosphorylation were higher in old enterocytes, affecting the hormone response which was greatly diminished (+2-fold at 10 min). cPLA2 phosphorylation impairment in old animals was not related to changes of cPLA2 protein expression and did not explain the substantial increase on PTH-induced AA release with aging, further suggesting the involvement of a different PLA2 isoform. Intracellular Ca2+ chelation (BAPTA-AM, 5 microM) suppressed the serine phosphorylation of cPLA2 in both, young and aged rats, demonstrating that intracellular Ca2+ is required for full activation of cPLA2 in enterocytes stimulated with PTH. Hormone effect on cPLA2 was suppressed to a great extent by the MAP kinases ERK 1 and ERK2 inhibitor, PD 98059 (20 microM), the cAMP antagonist, Rp-cAMP, and the PKC inhibitor Ro31820 both, in young and aged animals. Enterocytes exposure to PTH also resulted in phospho-cPLA2 translocation from cytosol to nuclei and membrane fractions, where phospholipase substrates reside. Hormone-induced enzyme translocation is also modified by aging where, in contrast to young animals, part of phospho-cPLA2 remained cytosolic. Collectively, these data suggest that PTH activates in duodenal cells, a Ca2+-dependent cytosolic PLA2 and attendant AA release and that this activation requires prior stimulation of intracellular ERK1/2, PKA, and PKC. cPLA2 is the major enzyme responsible for AA release in young enterocytes while cPLA2 and the Ca2+-independent iPLA2, potentiate PTH-induced AA release in aged cells. Impairment of PTH activation of PLA2 isoforms upon aging may result in abnormal hormone regulation of membrane fluidity and permeability and thereby affecting intestinal cell membrane function.

The concept of the role(s) of parathyroid hormone (PTH), has expanded from that on acting on the classical target tissues, bone and kidney, to the intestine where its actions are of regulatory and developmental importance: regulation of intracellular calcium through modulation of second messengers and, activation of mitogenic cascades leading to cell proliferation. Several causes have been postulated to modify the hormone response in intestinal cells with ageing, among them, alterations of PTH receptor (PTHR1) binding sites, reduced expression of G proteins and hormone signal transduction changes. The current review summarizes the actual knowledge regarding the molecular and biochemical basis of age-impaired PTH receptor-mediated signaling in intestinal cells. A fundamental understanding of why PTH functions are impaired with age will enhance our understanding of its importance in intestinal cell physiology.

Abstract
In the current study, we have probed the role of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) activity in the cellular response to the calciotropic hormones, 1alpha,25,dihydroxy-vitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] and PTH. Stimulation of rat enterocytes with either hormone, increased release of arachidonic acid (AA) 3H-AA] one-two fold in a concentration and time-dependent manner. The effect of either hormone on enterocytes was totally reduced by preincubation with the intracellular Ca(2+) chelator BAPTA-AM (5 microM), suggesting that the release of AA following cell exposure to the calciotropic hormones occurs mainly through a Ca(2+)-dependent mechanism involving activation of Ca(2+)-dependent cPLA2. Calciotropic homone stimulation of rat intestinal cells increases cPLA2 phosphorylation (three to four fold). This effect was decreased by PD 98059 (20 microM), a MAP kinase inhibitor, indicating that this action is, in part, mediated through activation of the MAP kinases ERK 1 and ERK2. Enterocytes exposure to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) (1nM) or PTH (10 nM) also resulted in P-cPLA2 translocation from cytosol to nuclei and membrane fractions, where phospholipase subtrates reside. Collectively, these data suggest that PTH and 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) activate in duodenal cells, a Ca(2+)-dependent cytosolic PLA2 and attendant arachidonic acid release and that this activation requieres prior stimulation of intracellular ERK1/2. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and PTH modulation of cPLA2 activity may change membrane fluidity and permeability and thereby affecting intestinal cell membrane function.

Abstract
In rat enterocytes, signaling through the parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide receptor type 1(PTHR1) includes stimulation of adenylyl cyclase, increases of intracellular calcium, activation of phospholipase C, and the MAP kinase pathway, mechanisms that suffer alterations with ageing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether an alteration at the level of the PTH receptor (PTHR1) is the basis for impaired PTH signaling in aged rat enterocytes. Western Blot analysis with a specific monoclonal anti-PTHR1 antibody revealed that a 85 kDa PTH binding component, the size expected for the mature PTH/PTHrP receptor, localizes in the basolateral (BLM) and brush border (BBM) membranes of the enterocyte, being the protein expression about 7-fold higher in the BLM. Two other bands of 105 kDa (corresponding to highly glycosylated, incompletely processed receptor form) and 65 kDa (proteolytic fragment) were also seen. BLM PTHR1 protein expression significantly decreases with ageing, while no substantial decrease was observed in the BBM from old rats. PTHR1 immunoreactivity was also present in the nucleus where PTHR1 protein levels were similar in enterocytes from young and aged rats. Immunohistochemical analysis of rat duodenal sections showed localization of PTHR1 in epithelial cells all along the villus with intense staining of BBM, BLM, and cytoplasm. The nuclei of these cells were reactive to the PTHR1 antiserum, but not all cells showed the same nuclear staining. The receptor was also detected in the mucosae lamina propria cells, but was absent in globets cells from epithelia. In aged rats, PTHR1 immunoreactivity was diffused in both membranes and cytoplasm and again, PTH receptor expression was lower than in young animals, while the cell nuclei showed a similar staining pattern than in young rats. Ligand binding to PTHR1 was performed in purified BLM. rPTH(1-34) displaced [I(125)]PTH(1-34) binding to PTHR1 in a concentration-dependent fashion. In both, aged (24 months) and young (3 months) rats, binding of [I(125)]PTH was characterized by a single class of high-affinity binding sites. The affinity of the receptor for PTH was not affected by age. The maximum number of specific PTHR1 binding sites was decreased by 30% in old animals. The results of this study suggest that age-related declines in PTH regulation of signal transduction pathways in rat enterocytes may be due, in part, to the loss of hormone receptors.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) is a lipid kinase, which phosphorylates the D3 position of phosphoinositides, and is known to be activated by a host of protein tyrosine kinases. PI3K plays an important role in mitogenesis in several cell systems. However, whether parathyroid hormone (PTH) affects the activity and functional roles of PI3K in intestinal cells remain to be determined. The objective of this study was to identify and characterize the PI3K pathway, and its relation to other non-receptor tyrosine kinases in mediating PTH signal transduction in rat enterocytes. PTH dose- and time-dependently increased PI3K activity with a peak occurring at 2 min. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein, c-Src inhibitor PP1 and two structurally different inhibitors of PI3K, LY294002 and wortmannin, suppressed PI3K activity dependent on PTH. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis showed a constitutive association between c-Src and PI3K, which was enhanced by PTH treatment, suggesting that the cytosolic tyrosine kinase forms an immunocomplex with PI3K probably via the N-SH2 domain of the p85alpha regulatory subunit. In response to PTH, tyrosine phosphorylation of p85alpha was enhanced, effect that was abolished by PP1, the inhibitor of c-Src kinase. PTH causes a rapid (0.5-5 min) phosphorylation of Akt/PKB, effect that was abrogated by PI3K inhibitors, indicating that in rat enterocytes, PI3K is an upstream mediator of Akt/PKB activation by PTH. We report here that PI3K is also required for PTH activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK1 and ERK2. Taken together, the present study demonstrate, for the first time, that PTH rapidly and transiently stimulates PI3K activity and its down effector Akt/PKB in rat enterocytes playing c-Src kinase a central role in PTH-dependent PI3K activation and that PI3K signaling pathway contributes to PTH-mediated MAPK activation.

Abstract
In previous work, we have demonstrated that rPTH(1-34) increases cytoplasmic calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in isolated rat enterocytes. In the present study, we have identified the sources of PTH-mediated increase in [Ca(2+)](I) and the implication of Ca(2+) on hormone early signals in enterocytes isolated from young (3-month-old) and aged (24-month-old) rats. In young enterocytes, PTH raised [Ca(2+)](i) in a dose-dependent manner (1 pM-100 nM). In cells from aged rats, hormone concentrations higher than physiological (>/=1 nM) were required to observe significant increases in [Ca(2+)](i). Phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitors blocked the initial acute elevation of the [Ca(2+)](i) biphasic response to PTH of young enterocytes while in old cells, no effects were observed. The voltage-dependent calcium-channel blocker (VDCC), nitrendipine, suppressed PTH-dependent changes of the sustained [Ca(2+)](i) phase in young and aged animals. In this study, we analysed, for the first time, alterations in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity and response to PTH in rat enterocytes with ageing. Basal PI3K activity was significantly modified by ageing. Acute treatment with 10(-8) M PTH increased enzyme activity, with a maximun at 2 min (+3-fold) in young rats and only elevated by less than 1-fold basal PI3K activity in aged animals. Hormone-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p85alpha, the regulatory subunit of PI3K, as well as the phosphorylation on Thr(308) of its downstream effector Akt/PKB was evident in enterocytes from 3-month-old rats, whereas it was greatly reduced in the cells from 24-month-old animals. Intracellular Ca(2+) chelation (BAPTA-AM, 5 microM) affected the tyrosine phosphorylation of p85alpha and inhibited PTH-dependent PI3K activation by 75% in young rats and completely abolished the enzyme activity in aged animals, demonstrating that Ca(2+) is required for full activation of PI3K in enterocytes stimulated with PTH. The Thr phosphorylation of PI3K downeffector, Akt/PKB, was also fully dependent on Ca(2+). Taken together, these results suggest that PTH regulation of enterocyte [Ca(2+)](i) involves Ca(2+) mobilization from IP(3)-sensitive stores and the influx of the cation from the extracellular milieu, the former pathway being blunted during ageing. The data also indicates a positive role for intracellular calcium in one of the early signals of PTH in rat enterocytes, the activation of PI3K, and that hormone regulation of PI3K activity and Akt/PKB phosphorylation on Thr(308) is impaired with ageing.

Abstract
Dogma for the past three decades has dictated that parathyroid hormone (PTH) has no direct effect on intestine with regard to calcium or phosphate absorption, but rather that PTH acts to promote the synthesis of a hormonally active form of vitamin D, namely 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)]. However, diverse laboratories have each provided some evidence to suggest PTH does indeed have a direct effect on intestine. We will briefly review the evidence for biological effects, biochemical effects, and the presence of intestinal receptors for PTH, and conclude with the implications for biomedical research.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) rapidly increases jejunal glucose transport. Signal transduction mechanisms mediating EGF-induced alterations in jejunal glucose transport remain to be determined. New Zealand White rabbit (1 kg) jejunal tissue was stripped and mounted in short-circuited Ussing chambers. The transport of tritiated 3-O-methylglucose was measured in the presence of the PKC agonist 1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol (1,2-DOG) or the inactive analog 1,3-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol (1,3-DOG). Additional experiments examined the effect of the PKC inhibitor chelerythrine, the PLC inhibitor U73122, the MAPK inhibitor PD 98059, the G-protein inhibitor GDP-betaS, the PI 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002, or the microtubule inhibitor colchicine on EGF-induced jejunal glucose transport. Net jejunal 3-O-methylglucose absorption was significantly increased following specific activation of PKC. A PKC antagonist inhibited the EGF-induced increase in net 3-O-methylglucose transport, while PI 3-kinase inhibition completely blocked the EGF-induced transport increase. Inhibition of PLC, MAPK, G-proteins, and microtubules had no effect on EGF-stimulated increases in jejunal transport. We conclude that the effect of EGF on jejunal glucose transport is mediated at least in part by PKC and PI 3-kinase.

Abstract
In a previous study, we demonstrated that parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates in rat duodenal cells (enterocytes) the phosphorylation and activity of extracellular signal-regulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) isoforms ERK1 and ERK2. As PTH activates adenylyl cyclase (AC) and phospholipase C and increases intracellular Ca(2+) in these cells, in the present study we evaluated the involvement of cAMP, Ca(2+) and protein kinase C (PKC) on PTH-induced MAPK activation. We found that MAPK phosphorylation by the hormone did not depend on PKC activation. PTH response could, however, be mimicked by addition of forskolin (5-15 microM), an AC activator, or Sp-cAMP (50-100 microM), a cAMP agonist, and suppressed to a great extent by the AC inhibitor, compound Sq-22536 (0.2-0.4 mM) and the cAMP antagonist Rp-cAMP (0.2 mM). Removal of external Ca(2+) (EGTA 0.5 mM), chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) with BAPTA (5 microM), or blockade of L-type Ca(2+)-channels with verapamil (10 microM) significantly decreased PTH-activation of MAPK. Furthermore, a similar degree of phosphorylation of MAPK was elicited by the Ca(2+) mobilizing agent thapsigargin, the Ca(2+) ionophore A23187, ionomycin and membrane depolarization with high K(+). Inclusion of the calmodulin inhibitor fluphenazine (50 microM) did not prevent hormone effects on MAPK. Taken together, these results indicate that cAMP and Ca(2+) play a role upstream in the signaling mechanism leading to MAPK activation by PTH in rat enterocytes. As Ca(2+) and cAMP antagonists did not block totally PTH-induced MAPK phosphorylation, it is possible that linking of the hormone signal to the MAPK pathway may additionally involve Src, which has been previously shown to be rapidly activated by PTH. Of physiological significance, in agreement with the mitogenic role of the MAPK cascade, PTH increased enterocyte DNA synthesis, and this effect was blocked by the specific inhibitor of MAPK kinase (MEK) PD098059, indicating that hormone modulation of MAPK through these messenger systems stimulates duodenal cell proliferation.

Abstract
Some interesting advances in mechanisms and regulation of nutrient absorption were reported last year. Further evidence was obtained that the rate-limiting step in triacylglycerol absorption, especially with large doses of lipid, is transport of prechylomicrons from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. Targeted disruption of the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter in mice produced changes similar to human Tangier disease and suggested that this mouse may be a model for studying intestinal high-density lipoprotein assembly and secretion. A new mechanism for carbohydrate malabsorption was discovered: in sucrase-isomaltase deficiency, the enzyme fails to anchor in the brush border membrane and so is secreted into the lumen, where it is ineffective. Glycosylating insulin at B1 phenylalanine permitted it to bind to the brush border membrane and greatly enhanced its hypoglycemic activity when given orally. CaCo-2 cells and normal human enterocytes were shown to have two variants of the human sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter, hSVCT1; one is active and the other is an inactive splice variant. In rats, the divalent metal ion transporter, DMT1, appeared to be important for regulation of both absorption of iron and its movement into the liver.

Abstract
We previously reported that in rat duodenal cells (enterocytes), parathyroid hormone (PTH [1-34]: PTH) stimulates the hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides by phospholipase C (PLC), generating the second messengers inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)) and diacylglycerol (DAG) and that this mechanism is severely altered in old animals. In the present study, we show that PTH [1-34]-dependent IP(3) release in young rats was blocked to a great extent by an antibody against guanine nucleotide binding protein Galphaq/11, indicating that the hormone activates a beta isoform of PLC coupled to the alpha subunit of Gq/11. In addition, PTH rapidly (within 30 s, with maximal effects at 1 min) stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma in a dose-dependent fashion (10(-10)-10(-7) M). The hormone response was specific as PTH [7-34] was without effects. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors, genistein (100 microM) and herbimycin (2 microM), suppressed PTH-dependent PLCgamma tyrosine phosphorylation. Stimulation of PLCgamma tyrosine phosphorylation by PTH [1-34] greatly decreased with ageing. PP1 (10 microM), a specific inhibitor of the Src family of tyrosine kinases, completely abolished PLCgamma phosphorylation. The hormone-induced Src tyrosine dephosphorylation, a major mechanism of Src activation, an effect that was blunted in old animals. These results indicate that in rat enterocytes PTH generates IP(3) mainly through G-protein-coupled PLCbeta and stimulates PLCgamma phosphorylation via the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase Src. Impairment of PTH activation of both PLC isoforms upon ageing may result in abnormal hormone regulation of cell Ca(2+) and proliferation in the duodenum.

Abstract
In the present study we analyzed whether parathyroid hormone (rPTH[1-34]; PTH) stimulates the tyrosine phosphorylation of the growth-related protein mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases (p42/44-MAPK), also known as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2), in duodenal enterocytes isolated from young (3months) and aged (24months) rats. Western blot analysis revealed that PTH rapidly stimulates MAPK phosphorylation. The hormone effects on MAPK were evident within 30s, peaking at 1min (4-fold). PTH response was dose-dependent (10(-11)-10(-7) M) with maximal stimulation achieved at 10(-9)-10(-8) M. PTH-induced MAPK phosphorylation was effectively suppressed by the tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, genistein (100microM) and herbimycin (2microM). Moreover, the tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of MAPK was dependent on Src kinase, since PP1 (10 and 20microM), a specific Src family tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, blocked PTH-induced MAPK activation. With aging, the response to PTH was significantly reduced. However, The amount of basal protein expression determined by Western blot analysis for MAPK was not different in the enterocytes from young and aged rats. In conclusion, the results obtained in this work expand our knowledge on the mechanism of action of PTH in duodenal cells, revealing that protein tyrosine phosphorylation is linked to the PTH regulation of enterocyte MAPK activation, and that this mechanism is impaired with aging. Understanding the molecular mechanisms for the age-related differences in PTH signaling will require more information about the subtle mechanisms that modulate the PTH receptor-MAPK signaling pathway.
