Abstract
Inappropriate activation of pattern recognition receptors has been described as a potential trigger in the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, we evaluated the activity and expression of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) subtypes in T84 intestinal epithelial cells during Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) activation by monophosphoryl lipid A and TLR5 by flagellin. NHE activity and intracellular pH were evaluated by spectrofluorescence. Additionally, kinase activities were evaluated by ELISA, and siRNA was used to specifically inhibit adenylyl cyclase (AC). Monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) (0.01-50.00 μg/ml) and flagellin (10-500 ng/ml) inhibited NHE1 activity in a concentration-dependent manner (MPLA short term -25.2 ± 5.0%, long term -31.9 ± 4.0%; flagellin short term -14.9 ± 2.0%, long term -19.1 ± 2.0%). Both ligands triggered AC3, PKA, PLC, and PKC signal molecules. Long-term exposure to flagellin and MPLA induced opposite changes on NHE3 activity; flagellin increased NHE3 activity (∼10%) with overexpression of membrane protein, whereas MPLA decreased NHE3 activity (-17.3 ± 3.0%). MPLA and flagellin simultaneously had synergistic effects on NHE activity. MPLA and flagellin impaired pHi recovery after intracellular acidification. The simultaneous exposure to MPLA and flagellin induced a substantial pHi reduction (-0.55 ± 0.03 pH units). Activation of TLR4 and TLR5 exerts marked inhibition of NHE1 activity in intestinal epithelial cells. Transduction mechanisms set into motion during TLR4-mediated and long-term TLR5-mediated inhibition of NHE1 activity involve AC3, PKA, PLC, and PKC. However, short- and long-term TLR4 activation and TLR5 activation might use different signaling pathways. The physiological alterations on intestinal epithelial cells described here may be useful in the development of better IBD therapeutics.

Abstract
Epithelial Na(+)/H(+) exchanger-3 (NHE3) transport is fundamental for renal and intestinal sodium reabsorption. Cytoplasmic protons are thought to serve as allosteric modifiers of the exchanger and to trigger its transport through protein conformational change. This effect presupposes an intracellular pH (pHi) dependence of NHE3 activity, although the biophysical and molecular basis of NHE3 pHi sensitivity have not been defined. NHE3, when complexed with the calcineurin homologous protein-1 (CHP1), had a shift in pHi sensitivity (0.4 units) toward the acidic side in comparison with NHE3 alone, as measured by oscillating pH electrodes combined with whole-cell patch clamping. Indeed, CHP1 interaction with NHE3 inhibited NHE3 transport in a pHi -dependent manner. CHP1 binding to NHE3 also affected its acute regulation. Intracellular perfusion of peptide from the CHP1 binding region (or pHi modification to reduce the CHP1 amount bound to NHE3) was permissive and cooperative for dopamine inhibition of NHE3 but reversed that of adenosine. Thus, CHP1 interaction with NHE3 apparently establishes the exchanger set point for pHi, and modification in this set point is effective in the hormonal stimuli-mediated regulation of NHE3. CHP1 may serve as a regulatory cofactor for NHE3 conformational change, dependent on intracellular protonation.

Abstract
The Na(+)/H(+)-exchanger 3 (NHE3) is essential for regulation of Na(+) transport in the renal and intestinal epithelium. Although changes in cell surface abundance control NHE3 function, the molecular signals that regulate NHE3 surface expression are not well defined. We found that overexpression of the calcineurin homologous protein-1 (CHP1) in opossum kidney cells increased NHE3 transport activity, surface protein abundance, and ezrin phosphorylation. CHP1 knockdown by small interfering RNA had the opposite effects. Overexpression of wild-type ezrin increased both NHE3 transport activity and surface protein abundance, confirming that NHE3 is downstream of ezrin. Expression of a pseudophosphorylated ezrin enhanced these effects, whereas expression of an ezrin variant that could not be phosphorylated prevented the downstream effects on NHE3. Furthermore, CHP1 knockdown reversed the activation of NHE3 by wild-type ezrin but not by the pseudophosphorylated ezrin. Taken together, these results demonstrate that CHP1 increases NHE3 abundance and constitutive function in a manner dependent on ezrin phosphorylation.

Abstract
The proximal tubule is critical for whole-organism volume and acid-base homeostasis by reabsorbing filtered water, NaCl, bicarbonate, and citrate, as well as by excreting acid in the form of hydrogen and ammonium ions and producing new bicarbonate in the process. Filtered organic solutes such as amino acids, oligopeptides, and proteins are also retrieved by the proximal tubule. Luminal membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchangers either directly mediate or indirectly contribute to each of these processes. Na(+)/H(+) exchangers are a family of secondary active transporters with diverse tissue and subcellular distributions. Two isoforms, NHE3 and NHE8, are expressed at the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule. NHE3 is the prevalent isoform in adults, is the most extensively studied, and is tightly regulated by a large number of agonists and physiological conditions acting via partially defined molecular mechanisms. Comparatively little is known about NHE8, which is highly expressed at the lumen of the neonatal proximal tubule and is mostly intracellular in adults. This article discusses the physiology of proximal Na(+)/H(+) exchange, the multiple mechanisms of NHE3 regulation, and the reciprocal relationship between NHE3 and NHE8 at the lumen of the proximal tubule.

Abstract
The kidney plays key roles in extracellular fluid pH homeostasis by reclaiming bicarbonate (HCO(3)(-)) filtered at the glomerulus and generating the consumed HCO(3)(-) by secreting protons (H(+)) into the urine (renal acidification). Sodium-proton exchangers (NHEs) are ubiquitous transmembrane proteins mediating the countertransport of Na(+) and H(+) across lipid bilayers. In mammals, NHEs participate in the regulation of cell pH, volume, and intracellular sodium concentration, as well as in transepithelial ion transport. Five of the 10 isoforms (NHE1-4 and NHE8) are expressed at the plasma membrane of renal epithelial cells. The best-studied isoform for acid-base homeostasis is NHE3, which mediates both HCO(3)(-) absorption and H(+) excretion in the renal tubule. This article reviews some important aspects of NHEs in the kidney, with special emphasis on the role of renal NHE3 in the maintenance of acid-base balance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanisms responsible for renal dysfunction and sodium retention in cirrhosis remain unclear. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) regulates sodium reabsorption in the proximal nephron. This study investigates the role of cAMP metabolism in renal dysfunction in cirrhosis. METHODS Renal function was studied by the clearance technique in anesthetized control and cirrhotic rats with or without ascites. cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity was measured in the renal cortex in vitro. Moroever, the effects on renal function of the intravenous administration of cAMP and rolipram, a powerful and specific cAMP-PDE4 inhibitor, were evaluated. RESULTS In control and in non-ascitic cirrhotic rats, cAMP administration significantly increased sodium and phosphate excretions, but did not change these excretions in cirrhotic rats with ascites. cAMP-PDE activity was higher in ascitic than in control rats (P < 0.05). Rolipram infusion significantly increased sodium and phosphate excretion only in cirrhotic rats with ascites. CONCLUSION These results suggest that increased renal cAMP-PDE activity is responsible for resistance to the natriuretic effects of cAMP in cirrhosis and plays a role in the development of ascites.

Abstract
The present experiments using primary cultures of renal proximal tubule cells derived from wild-type and NHERF-1 knockout animals examines the regulation of NHE3 by phenylthiohydantoin (PTH) and the regulation of phosphate transport in response to alterations in the media content of phosphate. Forskolin (34.8 +/- 6.2%) and PTH (29.7 +/- 1.8%) inhibited NHE3 activity in wild-type proximal tubule cells but neither forskolin (-3.2 +/- 3.3%) nor PTH (-16.6 +/- 8.1%) inhibited NHE3 activity in NHERF-1(-/-) cells. Using adenovirus-mediated gene transfer, expression of NHERF-1 in NHERF-1(-/-) proximal tubule cells restored the inhibitory response to forskolin (28.2 +/- 3.0%) and PTH (33.2 +/- 3.9%). Compared with high phosphate media, incubation of wild-type cells in low phosphate media resulted in a 36.0 +/- 6.3% higher rate of sodium-dependent phosphate transport and a significant increase in the abundance of Npt2a and PDZK1. NHERF-1(-/-) cells, on the other hand, had lower rates of sodium-dependent phosphate uptake and low phosphate media did not stimulate phosphate transport. Npt2a expression was not affected by the phosphate content of the media in NHERF-1 null cells although low phosphate media up-regulated PDZK1 abundance. Primary cultures of mice proximal tubule cells retain selected regulatory pathways observed in intact kidneys. NHERF-1(-/-) proximal tubule cells demonstrate defective regulation of NHE3 by PTH and indicate that reintroduction of NHERF-1 repairs this defect. NHERF-1(-/-) cells also do not adapt to alterations in the phosphate content of the media indicating that the defect resides within the cells of the proximal tubule and is not dependent on systemic factors.

Abstract
Adenosine is an autacoid that regulates renal Na(+) transport. Activation of adenosine A(1) receptor (A(1)R) by N(6)-cyclopentidyladenosine (CPA) inhibits the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) via phospholipase C/Ca(2+)/protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway. Mutation of PKC phosphorylation sites on NHE3 does not affected regulation of NHE3 by CPA, but amino acid residues 462 and 552 are essential for A(1)R-dependent control of NHE3 activity. One binding partner of the NHE family is calcineurin homologous protein (CHP). We tested the role of NHE3-CHP interaction in mediating CPA-induced inhibition of NHE3 in opossum kidney (OK) and Xenopus laevis uroepithelial (A6) cells. Both native and transfected NHE3 and CHP are present in the same immuno-complex by co-immunoprecipitation. CPA (10(-6) M) increases CHP-NHE3 interaction by 30 - 60% (native and transfected proteins). Direct CHP-NHE3 interaction is evident by yeast two-hybrid assay (bait, NHE3(C terminus); prey, CHP); the minimal interacting region is localized to the juxtamembrane region of NHE3(C terminus) (amino acids 462-552 of opossum NHE3). The yeast data were confirmed in OK cells where truncated NHE3 (NHE3(delta552)) still shows CPA-stimulated CHP interaction. Overexpression of the polypeptide from the CHP binding region (NHE3(462-552)) interferes with the ability of CPA to inhibit NHE3 activity and to increase CHPNHE3(Full-length) interaction. Reduction of native CHP expression by small interference RNA abolishes the ability of CPA to inhibit NHE3 activity. We conclude that CHPNHE3 interaction is regulated by A(1)R activation and this interaction is a necessary and integral part of the signaling pathway between adenosine and NHE3.

Abstract
Regulation of renal apical Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3) activity by adenosine has been suggested to contribute to acute control of mammalian Na(+) homeostasis. The mechanism by which adenosine controls NHE3 activity in a renal cell line was examined. The adenosine analog, N(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) exerts a bimodal effect on NHE3: CPA concentrations >10(-8) M inactivate NHE3, whereas concentrations <10(-8) M stimulate NHE3 activity. Acute CPA-induced control of NHE3 was blocked by antagonists of A1 adenosine receptors and inhibition of phospholipase C, pretreatment with BAPTA-AM (chelator of cellular calcium), and exposure to pertussis toxin. Stimulatory and to some extent also inhibitory CPA concentrations attenuated 8-bromo-cAMP and dopamine-mediated inhibition of NHE3. BAPTA eliminated the ability of a stimulatory dose of CPA to attenuate 8-bromo-cAMP-induced suppression of NHE3 activity. Upon inhibition of protein kinase C, CPA at an inhibitory dose provoked activation of NHE3, which is partially reverted by 8-bromo-cAMP and suppressed by pre-incubation with BAPTA-AM. Cytochalasin B, an actin-modifying agent, selectively prevented downregulation but did not affect upregulation of NHE3 activity by CPA. In conclusion, these observations demonstrate that (1) CPA modulates NHE3 activity by elevation of cellular Ca(2+) exerting a negative control on adenylate cyclase activity, (2) protein kinase C is the determining factor leading to CPA-induced downregulation of NHE3 activity, and (3) alterations of surface NHE3 abundance may contribute to A1 adenosine receptor-dependent inhibition of NHE3 activity.

Abstract
The electrophysiological effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) were studied in a primary cell culture model of the chick (Gallus domesticus) proximal tubule. In this model, confluent monolayers are grown on permeable filters and exhibit vectorial transport, including glucose-stimulated current. Under short-circuit conditions, PTH, at 10(-9) M, induced a positive current [short-circuit current (I(sc))] response, with an average 2-min peak response of 14.30 +/- 1.58 microA/cm(2) over the baseline I(sc,) followed by a slow decay. The PTH response was dose dependent, with a half-maximal response at 5 x 10(-9) M and maximal response at 5 x 10(-8) M. Forskolin and dibutyryl-cAMP also stimulated I(sc), as did the phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX. In contrast, the phorbol ester PMA inhibited baseline I(sc). The PTH response was nearly abolished by apical addition of 100 microM EIPA, an inhibitor of Na(+)/H(+) exchangers, and partially blocked by the Cl(-) channel blockers 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB; 100 microM) and glibenclamide (300 microM). Higher doses of EIPA or NPPB alone (500 microM) were almost fully effective, with no or slight additional effects of NPPB or EIPA, respectively. The anion exchange inhibitor DIDS (100 microM) and the Na(+) channel blocker amiloride (10 microM) had no effect. Bilateral reduction of Cl(-) in the buffer, from 137 to 2.6 mM, abolished the PTH response; increasing Cl(-) concentration restored the I(sc) response, with a half-maximal effect at 50 mM. These data suggest that, in the chick proximal tubule, PTH activates both an Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and a Cl(-) channel that may be functionally linked.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF), an essential protein cofactor in cAMP-mediated inhibition of Na(+)/H(+) exchange transporter 3 (NHE3), facilitates the formation of a signal complex of proteins that includes NHE3, NHERF, and ezrin. This model for NHE3 regulation was developed in fibroblasts and its applicability to epithelial cells remains to be established. Opossum kidney (OK) cells were transfected with either empty vector (control), full-length mouse (m) NHERF(1-355), or a truncated mNHERF(1-325) that lacked ezrin binding and had been demonstrated in fibroblasts to bind NHE3 but not mediate its cAMP-associated inhibition. 8-Bromoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BrcAMP) at 10(-4) M inhibited Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity in control and OK cells expressing wild-type mNHERF(1-355) by >60% but by <10% in cells expressing mNHERF(1-325). NHE3 coimmunoprecipitated with mNHERF(1-325), but cAMP phosphorylation of NHE3 was impaired in cells expressing mNHERF(1-325). The inhibitory effect of hyperosmolality on NHE3 activity and the uptake of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose was the same in all three cell lines. Cell surface expression of NHE3 was not changed by cAMP in any of the cells lines. These data indicate that disruption of the NHERF-ezrin signal complex attenuates the inhibitory effect of cAMP on NHE3 activity in OK cells and provides evidence supporting the proposed model of protein kinase A regulation of NHE3 in epithelial cells.

Abstract
Tubular reabsorption of filtered sodium is quantitatively the main contribution of kidneys to salt and water homeostasis. The transcellular reabsorption of sodium proceeds by a two-step mechanism: Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-energized basolateral active extrusion of sodium permits passive apical entry through various sodium transport systems. In the past 15 years, most of the renal sodium transport systems (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, channels, cotransporters, and exchangers) have been characterized at a molecular level. Coupled to the methods developed during the 1965-1985 decades to circumvent kidney heterogeneity and analyze sodium transport at the level of single nephron segments, cloning of the transporters allowed us to move our understanding of hormone regulation of sodium transport from a cellular to a molecular level. The main purpose of this review is to analyze how molecular events at the transporter level account for the physiological changes in tubular handling of sodium promoted by hormones. In recent years, it also became obvious that intracellular signaling pathways interacted with each other, leading to synergisms or antagonisms. A second aim of this review is therefore to analyze the integrated network of signaling pathways underlying hormone action. Given the central role of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in sodium reabsorption, the first part of this review focuses on its structural and functional properties, with a special mention of the specificity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase expressed in renal tubule. In a second part, the general mechanisms of hormone signaling are briefly introduced before a more detailed discussion of the nephron segment-specific expression of hormone receptors and signaling pathways. The three following parts integrate the molecular and physiological aspects of the hormonal regulation of sodium transport processes in three nephron segments: the proximal tubule, the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, and the collecting duct.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a potent inhibitor of mammalian renal proximal tubule Na(+) transport via its action on the apical membrane Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3. In the opossum kidney cell line, inhibition of NHE3 activity was detected from 5 to 45 min after PTH addition. Increase in NHE3 phosphorylation on multiple serines was evident after 5 min of PTH, but decrease in surface NHE3 antigen was not detectable until after 30 min of PTH. The decrease in surface NHE3 antigen was due to increased NHE3 endocytosis. When endocytic trafficking was arrested with a dominant negative dynamin mutant (K44A), the early inhibition (5 min) of NHE3 activity by PTH was not affected, whereas the late inhibition (30 min) and decreased surface NHE3 antigen induced by PTH were abrogated. We conclude that PTH acutely inhibits NHE3 activity in a biphasic fashion by NHE3 phosphorylation followed by dynamin-dependent endocytosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The most abundant Na+/H+ exchanger in the apical membrane of proximal tubules is the type 3 isoform (NHE3), and its activity is acutely inhibited by parathyroid hormone (PTH). In the present study, we investigate whether changes in protein abundance as well as in mRNA levels play a significant role in the long-term modulation of NHE3 by PTH. METHODS Three groups of animals were compared: (1) HP: animals submitted to hyperparathyroidism by subcutaneous implantation of PTH pellets, providing threefold basal levels of this hormone (2.1 U. h-1); (2) control: sham-operated rats in which placebo pellets were implanted; (3) PTX: animals submitted to hypoparathyroidism by thyroparathyroidectomy followed by subcutaneous implantation of thyroxin pellets, which provided basal levels of thyroid hormone. After eight days, we measured bicarbonate reabsorption in renal proximal tubules by in vivo microperfusion. NHE3 activity was also measured in brush border membrane (BBM) vesicles by proton dependent uptake of 22Na. NHE3 expression was evaluated by Northern blot, Western blot and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Bicarbonate reabsorption in renal proximal tubules was significantly decreased in HP rats. Na+/H+ exchange activity in isolated BBM vesicles was 6400 +/- 840, 9225 +/- 505, and 12205 +/- 690 cpm. mg-1. 15 s-1 in HP, sham, and PTX groups, respectively. BBM NHE3 protein abundance decreased 39.3 +/- 8.2% in HP rats and increased 54.6 +/- 7.8% in PTX rats. Immunohistochemistry showed that expression of NHE3 protein in apical BBM was decreased in HP rats and was increased in PTX rats. Northern blot analysis of total kidney RNA showed that the abundance of NHE3 mRNA was 20.3 +/- 1.3% decreased in HP rats and 27. 7 +/- 2.1% increased in PTX. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that the chronic inhibitory effect of PTH on the renal proximal tubule NHE3 is associated with changes in the expression of NHE3 mRNA levels and protein abundance.

Abstract
Expression of endogenous Na(+)/H(+) exchangers (NHEs) NHE3 and NHE1 at the apical (AP) and basolateral (BL) membrane domains was investigated in three clones (ATCC, PF-11, and TC-7) derived from the human adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2. In all three clones, NHE1 was the only isoform detected at the BL domain during 3 to 22 postconfluent days (PCD). In clone PF-11, the BL NHE1 activity increased up to 7 PCD and remained stable thereafter. Both NHE1 and NHE3 were found at the AP domain at 3 PCD and contributed 67 and 33% to the total AP Na(+)/H(+) exchange, respectively. The AP NHE3 activity increased significantly from 3 to 22 PCD, from 93 to 450 microM H(+)/s, whereas AP NHE1 activity decreased from 192 to 18 microM H(+)/s during that time. Similar results were obtained with the ATCC clone, whereas very little AP NHE3 activity was observed in clone TC-7. Surface biotinylation and indirect immunofluorescence confirmed these results and also suggested an increase in the number of cells expressing NHE3 being the major mechanism of the observed overall increase in NHE3 activity in PF-11 and ATCC clones. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 1 microM) acutely inhibited NHE3 activity by 28% of control, whereas epidermal growth factor (EGF, 200 ng/ml) stimulated the activity by 18%. The effect of PMA was abolished by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine, suggesting involvement of PKC in the PMA-induced inhibition of NHE3. Similar magnitude of inhibition by PMA and stimulation by EGF was observed at 7 and 17 PCD, suggesting the development of regulatory mechanisms in the early postconfluent period. Taken together, these data suggest a close similarity of membrane targeting and regulation of endogenous NHE3 between Caco-2 cells and native small intestinal epithelial cells and support the usefulness of some Caco-2 cell clones as an in vitro model for studies on physiology of NHE3 in the intestinal epithelium.

Abstract
This review updates our current knowledge on the regulation of Na+/H+ exchanger, Na+,K+,Cl- cotransporter, Na+,Pi cotransporter, and Na+,K+ pump in isolated epithelial cells from mammalian kidney by protein kinase C (PKC). In cells derived from different tubule segments, an activator of PKC, 4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), inhibits apical Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE3), Na+,Pi cotransport, and basolateral Na+,K+ cotransport (NKCC1) and augments Na+,K+ pump. In PMA-treated proximal tubules, activation of Na+,K+ pump probably plays a major role in increased reabsorption of salt and osmotically obliged water. In Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, which are highly abundant with intercalated cells from the collecting duct, PMA completely blocks Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport and decreases the activity of Na+,Pi cotransport by 30-40%. In these cells, agonists of P2 purinoceptors inhibit Na+,K+,Cl- and Na+,Pi cotransport by 50-70% via a PKC-independent pathway. In contrast with MDCK cells, in epithelial cells derived from proximal and distal tubules of the rabbit kidney, Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport is inhibited by PMA but is insensitive to P2 receptor activation. In proximal tubules, PKC-induced inhibition of NHE3 and Na+,Pi cotransporter can be triggered by parathyroid hormone. Both PKC and cAMP signaling contribute to dopaminergic inhibition of NHE3 and Na+,K+ pump. The receptors triggering PKC-mediated activation of Na+,K+ pump remain unknown. Recent data suggest that the PKC signaling system is involved in abnormalities of dopaminergic regulation of renal ion transport in hypertension and in the development of diabetic complications. The physiological and pathophysiological implications of PKC-independent regulation of renal ion transporters by P2 purinoceptors has not yet been examined.Key words: Na+/H+ exchanger, Na+,K+,Cl- and Na+,Pi cotransporters, Na+,K+ pump, protein kinase C, P2 purinoceptor.

Abstract
Acute hormonal modulation of NHE3 activity is partly mediated by kinases, including protein kinase C (PKC). We examined the role of NHE3 phosphorylation in regulating its activity in response to PKC activation by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). In pooled NHE-deficient fibroblasts transfected with NHE3, PMA increased NHE3 activity and phosphorylation. When six potential PKC target serines were mutated, NHE3 phosphorylation was drastically reduced and PMA failed to regulate NHE3 phosphorylation or function. To examine whether NHE3 phosphorylation is sufficient for functional regulation by PKC, we exploited the heterogeneous response of NHE3 activity to PMA in individual clones of transfectants. Clones with stimulatory, inhibitory, or null responses to PMA were observed. Despite the diverse functional response, changes in NHE3 phosphorylation as revealed by tryptic phosphopeptide maps were similar in all clones. We conclude that although phosphorylation appears to be necessary, it is insufficient to mediate PKC regulation of NHE3 function and factors extrinsic to the NHE3 protein must be involved.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a potent inhibitor of mammalian renal proximal tubule sodium absorption via suppression of the apical membrane Na/H exchanger (NHE-3). We examined the mechanisms by which PTH inhibits NHE-3 activity by giving an acute intravenous PTH bolus to parathyroidectomized rats. Parathyroidectomy per se increased apical membrane NHE-3 activity and antigen. Acute infusion of PTH caused a time-dependent decrease in NHE-3 activity as early as 30 min. Decrease in NHE-3 activity at 30 and 60 min was accompanied by increased NHE-3 phosphorylation. In contrast to the rapid changes in NHE-3 activity and phosphorylation, decrease in apical membrane NHE-3 antigen was not detectable until 4-12 h after the PTH bolus. The decrease in apical membrane NHE-3 occurred in the absence of changes in total renal cortical NHE-3 antigen. Pretreatment of the animals with the microtubule-disrupting agent colchicine blocked the PTH-induced decrease in apical NHE-3 antigen. We propose that PTH acutely cause a decrease in NHE-3 intrinsic transport activity possibly via a phosphorylation-dependent mechanism followed by a decrease in apical membrane NHE-3 antigen via changes in protein trafficking.

Abstract
NHE3 is the apically located Na+/H+ exchanger in the gut and in the renal proximal tubule. Acute inhibition of this transporter by cAMP requires the presence of either of two NHE3-associated proteins, NHERF or E3KARP. It has been suggested that these proteins either directly regulate NHE3 activity after being phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA) or that they may serve as adapters that localize PKA near NHE3. We studied the role of NHERF and E3KARP in opossum kidney cells, which endogenously express NHE3, NHERF, and ezrin and display cAMP-dependent inhibition of NHE3. In vivo phosphorylation studies showed that NHERF is a phosphoprotein under basal conditions, but does not change its phosphorylation state after 8-bromo-cAMP treatment, and that E3KARP is not phosphorylated at all. Co-immunoprecipitation showed that NHERF and E3KARP bind both NHE3 and ezrin. Using cAMP analogs it was demonstrated that NHE3 activity, measured as sodium-dependent recovery of the intracellular pH after intracellular acidification, is inhibited by PKA type II. Because others have shown that ezrin binds PKA type II and that NHE3 is phosphorylated by PKA we suggest that NHERF and E3KARP are adapters that link NHE3 to ezrin, thereby localizing PKA near NHE3 to allow NHE3 phosphorylation.

Abstract
We have studied the involvement of proteolytic pathways in the regulation of the Na/Pi cotransporter type II by parathyroid hormone (PTH) in opossum kidney cells. Inhibition of lysosomal degradation (by leupeptin, ammonium chloride, methylamine, chloroquine, L-methionine methyl ester) prevented the PTH-mediated degradation of the transporter, whereas inhibition of the proteasomal pathway (by lactacystin) did not. Moreover it was found (i) that whereas lysosomal inhibitors prevented the PTH-mediated degradation of the transporter they did not prevent the PTH-mediated inhibition of the Na/Pi cotransport and (ii) that treating opossum kidney cells with lysosomal inhibitors led to an increased expression of the transporter without any concomitant increase in the Na/Pi cotransport. Further analysis by subcellular fractionation and morphological techniques showed (i) that the Na/Pi cotransporter is constitutively transported to and degraded within late endosomes/lysosomes and (ii) that PTH leads to the increased degradation of the transporter in late endosomes/lysosomes.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the p-aminohippurate (PAH) transport system in OK kidney epithelial cell line is under the regulatory control of protein kinase C. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) could activate protein kinase C, as well as protein kinase A, in OK cells. In the present study, the effect of PTH on PAH transport was studied in OK cells. PTH inhibited the transcellular transport of PAH from the basal to the apical side, as well as the accumulation of PAH in OK cells. Basolateral PAH uptake was inhibited by PTH in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Protein kinase A activators did not affect the transcellular transport or the accumulation of PAH. The PTH-induced inhibition of the accumulation of PAH was blocked by a protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine. These results suggest that PTH inhibits the PAH transport in OK cells and that the messenger system mediated by protein kinase C, not protein kinase A, plays an important role in the regulation of PAH transport by PTH.

Abstract
1. Interlobular ducts were isolated from the rat pancreas and maintained in short-term tissue culture. Fluid secretion from these isolated ducts was measured using micropuncture techniques, intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) by fura-2 microspectrofluorimetry, and cyclic AMP by radioimmunoassay. 2. Applying secretin and ACh simultaneously to ducts caused either a stimulation or an inhibition of fluid secretion depending on the doses employed. 3. The inhibitory effect of secretin and ACh could be relieved by atropine, and by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors staurosporine and 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulphonyl)-2-methyl-piperazine (H-7). 4. Activation of PKC by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu) inhibited secretin-evoked fluid secretion. 5. ACh and TPA also inhibited fluid secretion stimulated by the adenylate cyclase activator, forskolin. 6. Neither secretin nor the PKC activators and inhibitors had any effect on either the increase in [Ca2+]i evoked by ACh or the increase in intracellular cyclic AMP evoked by secretin and forskolin. 7. We conclude that the inhibitory effect of combined doses of secretin and ACh on ductal fluid secretion is probably mediated by PKC at a point in the secretory mechanism distal to the generation of intracellular messengers.

Abstract
Mutations in the rBAT gene cause type I cystinuria, a common inherited aminoaciduria of cystine and dibasic amino acids due to their defective renal and intestinal reabsorption (Calonge, M. J., Gasparini, P., Chillarón, J., Chillón, M., Gallucci, M., Rousaud, F., Zelante, L., Testar, X., Dallapiccola, B., Di Silverio, F., Barceló, P., Estivill, X., Zorzano, A., Nunes, V., and Palacín, M. (1994) Nat. Genet. 6, 420-426; Calonge, M. J., Volipini, V., Bisceglia, L., Rousaud, F., De Sanctis, L., Beccia, E., Zelante, L., Testar, X., Zorzano, A., Estivill, X., Gasparini, P., Nunes, V., and Palacín, M.(1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 9667-9671). One important question that remains to be clarified is how the apparently non-concentrative system bo,+-like, associated with rBAT expression, participates in the active renal reabsorption of these amino acids. Several studies have demonstrated exchange of amino acids induced by rBAT in Xenopus oocytes. Here we offer evidence that system bo,+-like is an obligatory amino acid exchanger in oocytes and in the "renal proximal tubular" cell line OK. System bo, +-like showed a 1:1 stoichiometry of exchange, and the hetero-exchange dibasic (inward) with neutral (outward) amino acids were favored in oocytes. Obligatory exchange of amino acids via system bo,+-like fully explained the amino acid-induced current in rBAT-injected oocytes. Exchange via system bo,+-like is coupled enough to ensure a specific accumulation of substrates until the complete replacement of the internal oocyte substrates. Due to structural and functional analogies of the cell surface antigen 4F2hc to rBAT, we tested for amino acid exchange via system y+L-like. 4F2hc-injected oocytes accumulated substrates to a level higher than CAT1-injected oocytes (i.e. oocytes expressing system y+) and showed exchange of amino acids with the substrate specificity of system y+L and L-leucine-induced outward currents in the absence of extracellular sodium. In contrast to L-arginine, system y+L-like did not mediate measurable L-leucine efflux from the oocyte. We propose a role of systems bo,+-like and y+L-like in the renal reabsorption of cystine and dibasic amino acids that is based on their active tertiary transport mechanism and on the apical and basolateral localization of rBAT and 4F2hc, respectively, in the epithelial cells of the proximal tubule of the nephron.

Abstract
N-terminal peptides of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related peptide (PTHRP) elicit a wide variety of biological responses in target cells, including the inhibition of Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 activity in renal cells. This response is believed to be mediated by ligand binding to a common receptor (i.e. PTH/PTHRP receptor type I) and activation of cAMP-dependent and/or Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinases (PKA and PKC, respectively). However, the mechanism of action of these N-terminal peptides is now unclear because of recent data reporting the existence of additional receptor isoforms. Therefore, to directly examine the ligand binding and signaling characteristics of the PTH/PTHRP receptor type I and its ability to elicit a biological response, cDNAs encoding the rat type I receptor and the rat NHE3 isoform were transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (AP-1) cells that lack endogenous expression of these proteins. Competition binding assays using [125I-Tyr36]PTHRP-(1-36)-NH2 radioligand indicated that several biologically active human N-terminal PTH and PTHRP fragments (PTH-(1-34), PTH-(3-34), PTH-(28-42), PTH-(28-48), and PTHRP-(1-34)) were capable of binding to the type I receptor. Both PTH-(1-34) and PTHRP-(1-34) stimulated adenylate cyclase and PKC activities in these cells, whereas PTH-(3-34), PTH-(28-42), and PTH-(28-48) selectively enhanced only PKC activity. PTHRP-(1-16), a biologically inert fragment, was incapable of binding to this receptor and influencing either the PKA or PKC pathway. Furthermore, all the analogues with the exception of PTHRP-(1-16) inhibited NHE3 activity. Inhibition of PKC by the potent antagonist chelerythrine chloride abolished the depression of NHE3 activity by PTH-(3-34), PTH-(28-42), and PTH-(28-48) but did not alleviate the effects of PTH-(1-34). Likewise, antagonism of PKA by H-89 was unable to prevent the inhibition caused by PTH-(1-34). However, inhibition of both PKA and PKC by the nonselective protein kinase antagonist H-7 abolished the reduction of NHE3 activity by PTH-(1-34). These data indicate that discrete N-terminal analogues of PTH and PTHRP can interact with the classical PTH/PTHRP receptor type I and activate PKA and/or PKC. Activation of either signaling pathway independently leads to inhibition of NHE3.

Abstract
Agents known to increase cAMP levels in renal and intestinal epithelia decrease sodium absorption by inhibiting NHE3, an isoform of the Na+/H+ exchanger expressed at high levels in apical membranes of these cells. In contrast, the ubiquitous, housekeeping isoform of the exchanger (NHE1) is stimulated by cAMP in some cell types. Optimal activity of NHE3 as well as NHE1 requires the presence of ATP. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms of ATP dependence and cAMP regulation of NHE3, a series of mutations were constructed by progressively truncating segments of the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of the transporter at amino acid positions 684, 638, and 579 (named NHE3delta684, NHE3delta638, and NHE3delta579). In addition, chimeric antiporters were constructed with the N-terminal transmembrane domain of NHE3 linked to the entire cytoplasmic region of NHE1 (chimera NHE3/1) or vice versa (chimera NHE1/3). These constructs were heterologously expressed in antiport-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells, and their activities were assessed by fluorimetric measurements of intracellular pH and by radioisotope determinations of Na+ influx. Forskolin, which directly stimulates adenylate cyclase, inhibited NHE3 as well as NHE1/3, but not NHE3/1, suggesting that the cytoplasmic domain of NHE3 was sufficient to confer sensitivity to inhibition by cAMP. Forskolin also inhibited the truncated mutant NHE3delta684 to an extent similar to that for wild type NHE3. However, the inhibitory effect was greatly reduced in NHE3delta638 and more profound truncations (NHE3delta579 obliterated the effect of forskolin. These findings suggest that a region found between amino acids 579 and 684 is essential for the cAMP response of NHE3. In contrast, comparable ATP dependence was observed in all exchanger constructs examined. These observations indicate that ATP dependence is conferred by a region of the molecule in or adjacent to the transmembrane domain, which is most conserved between isoforms. It is concluded that different sites, and therefore different mechanisms, underlie inhibition of NHE3 by cAMP and by depletion of ATP.

Abstract
Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) activity is regulated by several types of receptors directly coupled to distinct classes (i.e. Gs, Gi, Gq, and G12) of heterotrimeric (alpha beta gamma) GTP-binding proteins (G proteins), which, upon activation, modulate production of various second messengers (e.g. cAMP, cGMP, diacylglycerol, inositol trisphosphate, and Ca2+). Recently, four isoforms of the rat Na+/H+ exchanger were identified by molecular cloning. To examine their intrinsic responsiveness to G protein and second messenger stimulation, three of these isoforms, NHE-1, -2, and -3, were stably expressed in mutant Chinese hamster ovary cells devoid of endogenous NHE activity (AP-1 cells). Incubation of cells with either AIF4-, a general agonist of G proteins, or cholera toxin, a selective activator of G alpha s that stimulates adenylate cyclase, accelerated the rates of amiloride-inhibitable 22Na+ influx mediated by NHE-1 and -2, whereas they inhibited that by NHE-3. Similarly, short term treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, which mimics diacylglycerol activation of protein kinase C (PKC), or with agents (i.e. forskolin, 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP, and isobutylmethylxanthine) that lead to activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) also stimulated transport by NHE-1 and NHE-2 but depressed that by NHE-3. The effects of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate were blocked by depleting cells of PKC or by inhibiting PKC using chelerythrine chloride, confirming a role for PKC in modulating NHE isoform activities. Likewise, the PKA antagonist, H-89, attenuated the effects of elevated cAMPi on NHE-1, -2, and -3, further demonstrating the regulation by PKA. Unlike cAMPi, elevation of cGMPi by treatment with dibutyryl-cGMP or 8-bromo-cGMP had no influence on NHE isoform activities, thereby excluding the possibility of a role for cGMP-dependent protein kinase in these cells. These data support the concept that the NHE isoforms are differentially responsive to agonists of the PKA and PKC pathways.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibits renal proximal tubular phosphate (Pi) and bicarbonate reabsorption by regulating the activity of apical Na/Pi cotransport and Na/H exchange. Two renal epithelial cell lines ["proximal tubular", LLC-PK1; "distal tubular", Madin-Darby canine kidney, (MDCK) cells] were stably transfected with complementary deoxyribonucleic acids (cDNAs) encoding a cloned PTH receptor in order to examine the polarity of transfected receptor function and whether or not intrinsic Pi transport is regulated by the transfected PTH receptor. The receptors are functionally coupled to the stimulation of adenosine 3':5' cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production at both cell surfaces in LLC-PK1 cells, whereas this response is primarily limited to the basolateral surface in MDCK cells. Immunocytochemistry suggests an apical and basolateral localization of the transfected PTH receptor in LLC-PK1 cells and only a basolateral localization in MDCK cells. PTH activation of the transfected receptors is not coupled to the regulation of intrinsic Pi transport in either LLC-PK1 or MDCK cells.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHRP) interact with a common G protein-coupled receptor and stimulate production of diverse second messengers (i.e. cAMP, diacylglycerol, and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) that varies depending on the target cell. In renal proximal tubule OK cells, PTH inhibits the activity of the apical membrane Na+/H+ exchanger, although it is unclear whether the signal is transmitted through protein kinase A (PKA) and/or protein kinase C (PKC). To delineate the signaling circuitry, a series of synthetic PTH and PTHRP fragments were used that stimulate the adenylate cyclase-cAMP-PKA and/or phospholipase C-diacylglycerol-PKC pathways. Human PTH-(1-34) and PTHRP-(1-34) stimulated adenylate cyclase and PKC activity, whereas the PTH analogues, PTH-(3-34), PTH-(28-42), and PTH-(28-48), selectively enhanced only PKC activity. However, each peptide fragment inhibited Na+/H+ exchanger activity by 40-50%, suggesting that PKC and possibly PKA were capable of transducing the PTH/PTHRP signal to the transporter. This was corroborated when forskolin and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), direct agonists of adenylate cyclase and PKC, respectively, both inhibited the Na+/H+ exchanger. The specific PKA antagonist, H-89, abolished the forskolin-mediated suppression of Na+/H+ exchanger activity, but did not prevent the inhibitory effects of PTH-(1-34) or PMA. In comparison, the potent PKC inhibitor, chelerythrine chloride, prevented the inhibition of Na+/H+ exchanger activity mediated by PTH-(28-48) and PMA but did not avert the negative regulation caused by PTH-(1-34) or forskolin. However, inhibition of both PKA and PKC prevented PTH-(1-34)-mediated suppression of Na+/H+ exchanger activity, indicating that PTH-(1-34) acted through both signaling pathways. In addition, Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of only the NHE-3 isoform of the Na+/H+ exchanger in OK cells. In summary, these results demonstrated that NHE-3 is expressed in OK cells and that activation of the PTH receptor can stimulate both the PKA and PKC pathways, each of which can independently lead to inhibition of NHE-3 activity.

Abstract
We have characterized the regulation of the endogenous Na+/H+ exchanger in Xenopus laevis oocytes by G proteins and protein kinases by measuring the ethylisopropylamiloride-sensitive Li+ uptake. Injection of oocytes with the stable GTP analog GTP gamma S stimulated Li+ uptake up to almost 4-fold, an effect blocked by coinjection with the GDP analog, guanyl-5'-yl thiophosphate. Injection into oocytes of beta gamma subunits of the heterotrimeric G protein transducin enhanced Li+ uptake by about 3-fold. This stimulation was blocked by transducin alpha subunits, which by themselves did not influence Li+ uptake. Using various activators and inhibitors of protein kinases, it is demonstrated that the X. laevis oocyte Na+/H+ antiporter can be stimulated by activation of both protein kinase A and C. Stimulation of Na+/H+ exchanger activity by GTP gamma S but not that induced by transducin beta gamma subunits was blocked by the protein kinase A inhibitor H-89. On the other hand, transducin beta gamma subunit-stimulated activity was prevented by the protein kinase C inhibitor, calphostin C. The non-selective protein kinase inhibitor H-7 blocked both GTP gamma S- and transducin beta gamma subunit-stimulated Na+/H+ exchanger activity. The results suggest that the Na+/H+ exchanger of X. laevis oocytes can be activated by G proteins and that this activation is not direct but mediated by protein kinase A- and/or protein kinase C-dependent pathways.

Abstract
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) controls multiple aspects of kidney function. In this study we have analysed the effects of ET-1 on apical Na+/H+ exchange activity in opossum kidney (OK) cells. ET-1 (at 10(-10) M and 10(-8) M) activated Na+/H+ exchange activity within 5 min of exposure. ET-1 (10(-8) M) prevented PTH-induced (parathyroid hormone; 10(-8) M) inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange activity; it also abolished transport inhibition in response to 10(-3) M IBMX (isobutyl-methylxanthine) and 3 x 10(-7) M TPA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate), but had no effect on the 8-bromo-cAMP-induced (10(-4) M) decrease of transport rate. Basal cAMP content, IBMX- and PTH-stimulated cAMP production were unaffected by ET-1 (10(-8) M). The stimulatory action of ET-1 (10(-8) M) on Na+/H+ exchange activity was prevented by calphostin C (10(-8) M). These data document that OK cells might serve as a useful in vitro model for analysis of cellular mechanisms involved in endothelin action; proteine kinase C activation seems to participate in the observed endothelin effects.

Abstract
The Na+/H+ antiporter of trout red blood cells, beta-NHE, is activated by agonists of the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and by those of protein kinase C (PKC). beta-NHE, once activated, shifts into a refractory state, accounting for its desensitization. It had previously been shown that desensitization is blocked and reversed by the protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid (OA). In this study we examined the effect of another protein phosphatase inhibitor, calyculin A (CIA). CIA was at least 10 times more potent than OA in blocking beta-NHE desensitization, suggesting that desensitization is controlled by phosphatase-1. Furthermore, CIA alone induced a large Na+/H+ exchange in unstimulated red blood cells, a property not shared by OA. The characteristics of ClA-induced Na+/H+ exchange are very different from those of the exchange triggered by activation of beta-NHE by PKA or PKC agonists, i.e., a flat pH dependence and total insensitivity to PKA and PKC inhibitors. Simultaneous addition of maximal concentrations of ClA and catecholamine produced an additive stimulation of the Na+/H+ exchange, consistent with the interpretation that these agents act on two distinct pools of exchangers. Screening of different cDNA libraries suggested that only one isoform of antiporter exists in the trout red blood cell; it therefore seems likely that regulation of the Na+/H+ antiporter beta-NHE involves a recycling mechanism. The reasons why intracellular beta-NHE show different properties from membrane beta-NHE are discussed.

Abstract
The regulation of intracellular pH (pHi) is mediated by membrane transporters whose activity is directly controlled by pHi. Therefore, transport rates must be compared at identical pHi values in functional studies of these transporters. This is conventionally performed using scatter plots showing initial rates of proton flux versus intracellular pH. We present justification for determining proton flux over a wide range of pHi, by digitally smoothing a pHi trace and then directly taking the first derivative versus time of smoothed data. Compared to conventional least-squares analysis of initial rates, the derivative method generates much more information per experiment. Compared to other methods which fit pHi traces to a defined equation prior to rate calculation, the new method does not require that the pHi trace be well fit by any given mathematical function. The derivative technique is illustrated in an analysis of Na+/H+ exchange in Caco-2 cells. Intracellular pH is measured fluorometrically in cells loaded with BCECF (2',7'-bis[2-carboxyethyl]-5-(and-6)carboxyfluorescein). To validate the analysis of Na+/H+ exchange over an extended time range, we demonstrate that cellular acidification with NH4Cl does not change steady state Na+ content. We find that proton flux rates analyzed by the derivative method are equivalent to initial rates measured by least-squares analysis.

Abstract
We previously cloned an isoform Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE3), which was expressed only in intestine, kidney, and stomach. We show here the functional characteristics of NHE3 as a Na+/H+ exchanger by stably transfecting NHE3 cDNA into PS120 cells, a fibroblast cell line that lacks endogenous Na+/H+ exchangers. NHE3 was 39- and 160-fold more resistant to inhibition by amiloride and ethylisopropyl amiloride, respectively, than NHE1, the housekeeping Na+/H+ exchanger isoform. Although both exchangers were stimulated by serum, NHE3 was inhibited by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), which stimulated NHE1. Mechanistically, serum and PMA stimulated NHE1 by an increase in the apparent affinity of the exchanger for intracellular H+. In contrast, serum stimulated and PMA inhibited NHE3 by a Vmax change. When NHE3 was stably expressed in Caco-2 cells, an intestinal epithelial cell line, NHE3 was functionally expressed in the apical membrane. Thus, NHE3 is a good candidate to be an epithelial brush border Na+/H+ exchanger. Furthermore, Na+/H+ exchangers can be rapidly regulated by mechanisms that change either the Vmax or the affinity for intracellular H+, depending on the Na+/H+ exchanger subtype.

Abstract
The human fibroblast, "amiloride-sensitive" Na/H exchanger (NHE1) was transfected into opossum kidney cells (OK cells) (OK/NHE1 cells). Northern blot analysis confirmed that the NHE1 message is expressed in OK/NHE1 cells. In immunoblot analysis, an anti-human NHE1 antibody labelled a membrane protein only present in OK/NHE1 cells. In contrast to the parental cell line containing only an apically located, "amiloride-resistant" Na/H exchange activity, OK/NHE1 cells contain apically and basolaterally located Na/H exchange activities, the apical activity being "amiloride resistant" and the basolateral being "amiloride sensitive". Parathyroid hormone (PTH) inhibited apical transport activity (OK and OK/NHE1 cells) but had no effect on basolateral transport activity (OK/NHE1 cells). Pharmacological activation of protein kinase A (forskolin) decreased both apical and basolateral Na/H exchange activity. Incubation with phorbol ester (exogenous activation of protein kinase C) reduced apical Na/H exchange activity (OK and OK/NHE1 cells) but had only a moderate, inhibitory effect on basolateral Na/H exchange activity (OK/NHE1 cells). These results indicate that transfection of OK cells with human fibroblast NHE1 cDNA encoding an "amiloride-sensitive" form of the Na/H exchanger results in expression of basolaterally located "NHE1-related" transport activity. Regulatory control of intracellular Na/H exchange activities (apically versus basolaterally located) and intercellular Na/H exchange activities (NHE1-related) differs. This may relate to cell-specific properties as well as to exchanger-specific properties.

Abstract
We have examined the rapid effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] on apical Na+/H+ exchange activity in opossum kidney (OK) cells and in MCT cells (a culture of simian-virus-40-immortalized mouse cortical tubule cells) grown on filter support. Addition of 1,25(OH)2D3 (10 nM) for 1 min increased apical Na+/H+ exchange activity [recovery from an acid load; measured by 2',7'-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein] in OK cells (by 56%) and in MCT cells (by 36%). The cellular mechanisms involved in 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent stimulation of Na+/H+ exchange were analysed in OK cells; stimulation of Na+/H+ exchange by 1,25(OH)2D3 was not prevented by actinomycin D. Applying parathyroid hormone (PTH) reduced Na+/H+ exchange activity in OK cells (by 34% at 10 nM, 5 min); 1,25(OH)2D3 "reversed" PTH-induced inhibition, either when PTH was added prior to 1,25(OH)2D3 or when the two agonists were applied together. 1,25(OH)2D3 had no effect on basal OK cell cAMP content or on [Ca2+]i (fura-2). 1,25(OH)2D3 attenuated PTH-induced cAMP accumulation and had no effect on the PTH-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i. These data suggest a regulatory control (stimulation) of proximal tubular brush-border Na+/H+ exchange by 1,25(OH)2D3. This effect is non-genomic and might in part be explained by a release from cAMP-dependent control of transport activity.

Abstract
1. Phosphorylation of endogenous proteins in response to calcium and calmodulin was assessed in membrane and cytosol from primate kidney. 2. Quantitative studies showed that calcium and calmodulin had little effect on phosphorylation in baboon kidney cytosol; in membranes, phosphorylation was significantly decreased by calcium and calmodulin. 3. Phosphorylation of specific proteins which had been electrophoretically separated indicated that calmodulin, in the absence or presence of calcium, enhanced bands of masses 37.1 +/- 1.1 kDa and 103.3 +/- 6.2 kDa (N = 6) in cytosol fractions of baboon kidney; in membrane fractions no effect was noted. 4. Similar results were found in normal human kidney.

Abstract
The effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on acid/base transport in isolated rabbit renal proximal tubule S3 segment was investigated with double-barreled and conventional microelectrodes. PTH (10 nM) induced a small depolarization and enhanced the initial rates of cell pH (pHi) increase and cell Cl- ([Cl-]i) decrease in response to bath Cl- removal by 28.0 +/- 2.1% and 31.0 +/- 6.4% respectively. The calculated initial HCO3- influx to bath Cl- removal was also enhanced by 28%. On the other hand, PTH reduced the initial rate of pHi decrease to luminal Na+ removal in the absence of HCO3-/CO2 by 20.4 +/- 3.9%. The PTH-induced depolarization was not accompanied with changes in steady-state pHi or [Cl-]i levels, but was greatly attenuated in the presence of ouabain (0.1 mM). Either dibutyryl-cAMP (0.1 mM) plus theophylline (1 mM) or forskolin (10 microM) alone could reproduce all the effects of PTH. These results indicate that (a) PTH inhibits the luminal Na+/H+ exchanger but stimulates the basolateral Cl-/HCO3- exchanger in the S3 segment; (b) the PTH-induced depolarization largely results from inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and (c) all these effects are at least partly mediated by a cAMP-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (ANG II) was shown to modulate transport in the renal proximal tubule through both inhibition of adenylate cyclase and protein kinase C (PKC) activation. We evaluated the effects of ANG II on adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) content and Na-H exchange activity (amiloride-sensitive Na influx) in two strains of opossum kidney (OK) cells originating from different sources, OK-VD and OK-RR cells. In OK-VD cells, ANG II inhibited basal and parathyroid hormone (PTH)-induced cAMP generation in a pertussis toxin-sensitive manner and reversed PTH inhibition of Na-H exchange. These effects of ANG II were prevented by PD 123319, a selective nonpeptide antagonist of AT2 receptors. In contrast, DuP 753, which antagonizes selectively AT1 receptors, had no effect. In OK-RR cells, ANG II had no effect on cAMP content and decreased Na-H exchange activity. The effect of ANG II persisted in the presence of PTH but was abolished by PKC downregulation and by DuP 753, but not by PD 123319. In conclusion, two types of ANG II receptors, coupled to distinct signaling pathways, were expressed independently in OK cells originating from two different sources and mediated opposite effects of ANG II on Na-H exchange activity. Those models provide a powerful tool for studying the intracellular steps involved in the tubular effects of ANG II and to evaluate the effect of pharmacological inhibitors of ANG II binding to its receptors.

Abstract
To examine the intracellular pH (pHi) regulation in primary cultures of rabbit distal convoluted tubules (DCTb) we used the pH-sensitive dye 2,7-bis-carboxyethyl-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF/AM) and a video-microscopy technique. DCTb segments were microdissected from rabbit kidney cortex and cultured in a hormonally defined medium. The culture epithelia were grown on semi-transparent permeable supports. Before pHi measurement, DCTb primary cultures were maintained for 48-96 h in growth-factor-free medium to obtain quiescent cells. We had previously shown that two mechanisms are involved in the regulation of intracellular pH: a basolateral Na+/H+ exchanger and an apical Cl-/HCO3- exchanger. The pHi of DCTb cells was significantly decreased by the addition of 60 nM human calcitonin (from 7.30 +/- 0.04 to 7.08 +/- 0.04). This response to calcitonin was dose-dependent and mimicked by both forskolin and permeant cyclic AMP derivatives. An initial acidification (of 0.25 pH unit in 7-8 min) was observed after the addition of basolateral amiloride (1 mM). The persistence of the effect induced by human calcitonin in these conditions, suggests that the Na+/H+ exchanger is not involved in the response. However, the acidification response was blocked in both the absence of chloride at the apical side and by the apical addition of 0.1 mM 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS). These experiments suggest that the target for the human calcitonin effect on pHi is the Cl-/HCO3- exchanger. This study confirms the importance of this transporter in pHi regulation within the physiological pHi range and the influence of calcitonin in the regulation of DCTb cell function.

Abstract
The characteristics of two established renal cell lines (LLC-PKI and OK) and of primary cultures of rabbit and human proximal tubule cells are described by summarizing the literature about specific properties retained by these cells in culture. Furthermore, comparative biochemical and functional properties are presented including both specific marker enzymes and transport properties of these cells grown in various media. The impact of culture medium composition on the expressed cellular phenotype is discussed and its consequences on the profile of toxic response due to aminoglycoside antibiotics is analyzed. The in vitro nephrotoxicity of three platinum-containing coordination complexes which exhibited different in vivo nephrotoxic potentials is studied by another technique in a model of rabbit proximal tubule cells in primary cultures in order to correlate results to in vivo data and to define reliable and sensitive parameters for the assessment of platinum-derivative-induced nephrotoxicity. Although animal cell lines have been established in serum-supplemented medium, LLC-PK1 and OK cells as well as primary cultures of proximal tubules are successfully grown in hormonally defined medium, the standardization of which is better controlled for nephrotoxicity studies.

Abstract
The cellular distribution (apical vs. basolateral) of parathyroid hormone (PTH) signal transduction systems in opossum kidney (OK) cells was evaluated by measuring the action of PTH on apically located transport processes (Na/Pi cotransport and Na/H exchange) and on the generation of intracellular messengers (cAMP and IP3). PTH application led to immediate inhibition of Na/H-exchange without a difference in dose/response relationships between apical and basolateral cell-surface hormone addition (half-maximal inhibition at approximately 5 x 10(-12) M). PTH required 2-3 hr for maximal inhibition of Na/Pi cotransport with a half-maximal inhibition occurring at approximately 5 x 10(-10) M PTH for basolateral application and approximately 5 x 10(-12) M for apical application. PTH addition to either side of the monolayer produced a dose-dependent production of both cAMP and IP3. Half-maximal activation of IP3 was at about 7 x 10(-12) M PTH and displayed no differences between apical and basolateral hormone addition, while cAMP was produced with a half maximal concentration of 7 x 10(-9) M for apical PTH application and 10(-9) M for basolateral administration. The PTH analog [nle8.18,tyr34]PTH(3-34), (nlePTH), produced partial inhibition of Na/Pi cotransport (agonism) with no difference between apical and basolateral application. When applied as a PTH antagonist, nlePTH displayed dose-dependent antagonism of PTH inhibition of Na/Pi cotransport on the apical surface, failing to have an effect on the basolateral surface. Independent of addition to the apical or basolateral cell surface, nlePTH had only weak stimulatory effect on production of cAMP, whereas high levels of IP3 could be measured after addition of this PTH analog to either cell surface. Also an antagonistic action of nlePTH on PTH-dependent generation of the internal messengers, cAMP and IP3, was observed; at the apical and basolateral cell surface nelPTH reduced PTH-dependent generation of cAMP, while PTH-dependent generation of IP3 was only reduced by nlePTH at the apical surface. Pertussis toxin (PT) preincubation produced an attenuation of both PTH-dependent inhibition of Na/Pi cotransport and 1P3 generation while producing an enhancement of PTH-dependent cAMP generation; these effects displayed no cell surface polarity, suggesting that PTH action through either adenylate cyclase or phospholipase C was transduced through similar sets of G-proteins at each cell surface.
