Abstract
Pancreatic ductular epithelial cells comprise the majority of duct cells in pancreas, control cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-dependent bicarbonate ([Formula: see text]) secretion, but are difficult to grow as a polarized monolayer. Using NIH-3T3-J2 fibroblast feeder cells and a Rho-associated kinase inhibitor, we produced well-differentiated and polarized porcine pancreatic ductular epithelial cells. Cells grown on semipermeable filters at the air-liquid interface developed typical epithelial cell morphology and stable transepithelial resistance and expressed epithelial cell markers (zona occludens-1 and β-catenin), duct cell markers (SOX-9 and CFTR), but no acinar (amylase) or islet cell (chromogranin) markers. Polarized cells were studied in Ussing chambers bathed in Krebs-Ringer [Formula: see text] solution at 37°C gassed with 5% CO2 to measure short-circuit currents ( Isc). Ratiometric measurement of extracellular pH was performed with fluorescent SNARF-conjugated dextran at 5% CO2. Cells demonstrated a baseline Isc (12.2 ± 3.2 μA/cm2) that increased significantly in response to apical forskolin-IBMX (∆ Isc: 35.4 ± 3.8 μA/cm2, P < 0.001) or basolateral secretin (∆ Isc: 31.4 ± 2.5 μA/cm2, P < 0.001), both of which increase cellular levels of cAMP. Subsequent addition of apical GlyH-101, a CFTR inhibitor, decreased the current (∆ Isc: 20.4 ± 3.8 μA/cm2, P < 0.01). Extracellular pH and [Formula: see text] concentration increased significantly after forskolin-IBMX (pH: 7.18 ± 0.23 vs. 7.53 ± 0.19; [Formula: see text] concentration, 14.5 ± 5.9 vs. 31.8 ± 13.4 mM; P < 0.05 for both). We demonstrate the development of a polarized pancreatic ductular epithelial cell epithelium with CFTR-dependent [Formula: see text] secretion in response to secretin and cAMP. This model is highly relevant, as porcine pancreas physiology is very similar to humans and pancreatic damage in the cystic fibrosis pig model recapitulates that of humans. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Pancreas ductular epithelial cells control cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-dependent bicarbonate secretion. Their function is critical because when CFTR is deficient in cystic fibrosis bicarbonate secretion is lost and the pancreas is damaged. Mechanisms that control pancreatic bicarbonate secretion are incompletely understood. We generated well-differentiated and polarized porcine pancreatic ductular epithelial cells and demonstrated feasibility of bicarbonate secretion. This novel method will advance our understanding of pancreas physiology and mechanisms of bicarbonate secretion.

Abstract
Uptake of GABA was demonstrated in rat brain synaptic vesicles which were prepared by a new and efficient procedure. The uptake activity co-purified with the synaptic vesicles during the isolation procedure. The purity of the vesicle fraction was rigorously examined by analysis of marker enzymes and marker proteins and also by immunogold electron microscopy using antibodies against p38 (synaptophysin). Contamination by other cellular components was negligible, indicating that GABA uptake by the synaptic vesicle fraction is specific for synaptic vesicles and not due to the presence of other structure possessing GABA uptake or binding activities. GABA uptake was ATP dependent and similar to the uptake of glutamate, which was assayed for a comparison. Both uptake activities were independent of sodium. They were inhibited by the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide 4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone, indicating that the energy for the uptake is provided by an electrochemical proton gradient. This gradient is generated by a proton ATPase of the vacuolar type as suggested by the effects of various ATPase inhibitors on neurotransmitter uptake and proton pumping. Competition experiments revealed that the transporters for GABA and glutamate are selective for the respective neurotransmitters.

Abstract
Microsomes isolated from cat pancreas were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence or absence of Ca2+. Following fractionation of phosphoproteins by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a single microsomal protein with an apparent molecular mass of 77,000 dalton (77K) was found to be phosphorylated in a Ca2+-dependent mechanism. Maximal phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was observed at 10(-6) mol/l [Ca2+] and was 4-fold higher than in the absence of Ca2+. The 77K phosphoprotein showed characteristic of a stable phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Measurable phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was noted 5 s following addition of [gamma-32P]ATP and reached maximum at 9-10th min. The lack of effect of exogenous cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, calmodulin, the calmodulin antagonist trifluoperazine, leupeptin and the suppression of phosphorylation by some phospholipid-interacting drugs suggested that the 77K protein is a substrate for cyclic AMP- and calmodulin-independent, Ca2+-activated phospholipid-sensitive kinase activity. Centrifugation of the pancreatic homogenate in a ficoll-sucrose density gradient indicated that both the 77K protein and enzyme were associated in a fraction enriched in rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Two microsomal subfractions from isolated rat pancreatic acini were produced by centrifugation through a discontinuous sucrose density gradient and characterized by biochemical markers. The denser fraction ( SF2 ) was a highly purified preparation of rough endoplasmic reticulum; the less-dense fraction ( SF1 ) was heterogeneous and contained Golgi, endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membranes. 45Ca2+ accumulation in the presence of ATP and its rapid release after treatment with the bivalent-cation ionophore A23187 were demonstrated in both fractions. The pH optimum for active 45Ca2+ uptake was approx. 6.8 for the rough endoplasmic reticulum ( SF2 ) and approx. 7.5 for SF1 . Initial rate measurements were used to determine the affinity of the rough-endoplasmic-reticulum uptake system for free Ca2+. An apparent Km of 0.16 +/- 0.06 microM and Vmax. of 21.5 +/- 5.6 nmol of Ca2+/min per mg of protein were obtained. 45Ca2+ uptake by SF1 was less sensitive to Ca2+, half-maximal uptake occurring at 1-2 microM-free Ca2+. When fractions were prepared from isolated acini stimulated with 3 microM-carbamylcholine, 45Ca2+ uptake was increased in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The increased uptake was due to a higher Vmax. with no significant change in Km. No effect was observed on 45Ca2+ uptake by SF1 . In conclusion, two distinct non-mitochondrial, ATP-dependent calcium-uptake systems have been demonstrated in rat pancreatic acini. One of these is located in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, but the precise location of the other has not been determined. We have shown that the Ca2+-transporting activity in the rough endoplasmic reticulum may have an important role in maintaining the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration in resting acinar cells and is involved in Ca2+ movements which occur during stimulation of enzyme secretion.

Abstract
Preparations of enzymically dispersed rat pancreatic cells hydrolyse externally added nucleoside triphosphates and diphosphates at high rates in the presence of Mg2+ or Ca2+. The lack of response to specific inhibitors and activators differentiates this hydrolytic activity from that of other well-characterized ion-transporting ATPases. Studies based on inactivation of this hydrolytic activity by the covalently reacting, slowly permeating probe diazotized sulphanilic acid indicated that this nucleoside tri- and di-phosphatase is primarily a plasma-membrane ecto-enzyme. It is the major ATPase activity associated with intact cells, homogenates and isolated plasma-membrane fractions. Concanavalin A stimulates this ATPase activity of intact cells and isolated plasma-membrane fractions. The insensitivity of this ATPase activity to univalent ions and inhibitors of pancreatic electrolyte secretion, taken together with the evidence that the active site is externally located, suggests that this enzyme is not directly involved in HCO3- secretion in the pancreas. Its actual function remains unknown.

Abstract
Rat and hamster pancreatic ducts were isolated by digestion with collagenase plus chymotrypsin and were cultured for eight weeks in an agarose matrix. Freshly isolated and cultured ducts were characterized morphologically and biochemically. The in vivo morphology of the ducts was maintained in vitro, although certain differences were noted. Both interlobular and intralobular ducts could be identified. gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase and Mg-ATPase were stable enzymatic activities of the ducts of both species; alkaline phosphatase persisted only in the hamster ducts. Carbonic anhydrase and (Na + K)ATPase were minor activities of the rat ducts. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the rat ducts suggested that actin was the major duct peptide and that the major zymogens were greatly diminished. These results demonstrate that pancreatic ducts can be maintained in vitro and can be used for biochemical studies of this minor pancreatic tissue type.

Abstract
The membrane ATPase activities present in rat pancreas were studied to investigate the possible role of ATPase enzymes in HCO3(-) secretion in the pancreas. It was found that all the HCO3(-)-sensitive (anion-sensitive) ATPase activity was accountable as pancreatic mitochondrial ATPase, thus supporting the view that a distinct plasma membrane 'bicarbonate-ATPase' is not involved in HCO3(-) secretion in pancreas. A remarkably high Mg+- and CA2+-requiring ATPase activity (30 mumol ATP hydrolysed/min per mg) was found in the plasma membrane fraction (rho = 1.10-1.13). This activity has been characterized in some detail. It is inhibited by p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine, an affinity label analogue of ATP and the analogue appears to label covalently a protein of Mr approximately 35 000. The (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity did not form a 'phosphorylated-intermediate' and was vanadate-insensitive. These and other tests have served to demonstrate that the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is different in properties from (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, (H+ + K+)-ATPase or mitochondrial H+-ATPase. Apart from the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of plasma membrane and mitochondrial ATPase, the only other membrane ATPase activities noted were (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, which occurred in the same fractions as the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-AtPase at rho = 1.10-1.13 and was of surprisingly low activity, and an ATPase activity in light membrane fractions (rho - 1.08-1.09) derived from zymogen granule membranes. At this time, therefore, there is no obvious candidate for an ATPase activity at the luminal surface of pancreatic cells which is directly involved in ion transport, but the results presented here direct attention to the high activity (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase in the plasma membrane fraction.

Abstract
The present study was undertaken in order to examine the possible involvement of protein phosphorylation during beta-adrenergic stimulation in the rat parotid gland. Isolated parotid gland slices were stimulated by either isoproterenol or dibutyryl adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (Bt2cAMP) in the presence or absence of propranolol. Amylase output was measured as a parameter for the degree of stimulation of secretion. Stimulation of secretion by either isoproterenol or Bt2AMP was associated with phosphorylation of three protein bands as revealed by sodium dodecylsulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. The apparent molecular weights of the three proteins were 35,100 (protein I), 25,700 (protein II) and 20,400 (protein III). After cell fractionation by differential and gradient centrifugation, protein I was enriched in a light membrane fraction most likely corresponding to the plasma membrane as revealed by marker enzyme analysis. Proteins II and III were recovered in a denser fraction containing mainly mitochondria and rough microsomes. The effect of isoproterenol but not that of Bt2cAMP on phosphorylation of all three protein bands was completely abolished by propranolol. The different time course in the stimulation of amylase secretion by isoproterenol and Bt2cAMP respectively was reflected by corresponding differences in the time course of protein phosphorylation.

Abstract
Interlobular and intralobular ducts isolated from the pancreas of the rat by digestion with collagenase and chymotrypsin were cultured in an agarose matrix containing CMRL-1066 supplemented with insulin, dexamethasone, L-glutamine, soybean trypsin inhibitor, antibiotics, and fetal bovine serum. The cut ends of most interlobular ducts sealed to create enclosed lumina. Some ducts retained their original cylindrical organization; others enlarged to varying degrees, resulting in structures that ranged from cylindrical to spherical in shape. The duct walls consisted of viable epithelium and connective tissue, although the amount of connective tissue declined with age. Both epithelial and connective tissue cells became flattened in the enlarged ducts. Intralobular and small interlobular ducts often remained associated with the larger interlobular ducts. These duct fragments have been cultured for as long as 6 weeks.

Abstract
Rat pancreases were minced and treated with collagenase or collagenase supplemented with chymotrypsin to yield a mixture of ducts, islets, acinar cell clusters, blood vessels, and nerves. Histologically and ultrastructurally, the isolated tissues resembled their in situ counterparts in most respects, the major difference being the destruction of the basement membranes (basal laminae). Ducts ranging in size from the common bile/main pancreatic duct to the intercalated ducts were identified in the digest, although interlobular ducts were most frequently observed. Acinar tissue fragments were separated from nonacinar structures either by flotation through discontinuous gradients of Ficoll or by sieving, the latter technique being the more efficient. Common bile/main ducts, interlobular ducts, and blood vessels were selected manually from the nonacinar fractions. Biochemical analyses showed that the entire nonacinar fraction, as well as isolated ducts and blood vessels, contained larger alkaline phosphatase, carbonic anhydrase, and Mg-ATPase specific activities than acinar tissue, whereas acinar tissue contained larger gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase and amylase activities. However, greater than 63% of the total recovered activity of each enzyme was associated with the acinar tissue. Both the association of the majority of each of these enzyme activities with the acinar tissue and the similarity in specific activities associated with ducts and blood vessels indicate that none of the enzymes tested is a unique marker for interlobular and larger ducts of the pancreas of the rat.

Abstract
In cats anaesthetized with pentobarbital, medullary respiratory neurones of both dorsal and ventral populations were recorded intracellularly with 1 mol.l-1 KCl-electrodes. The neurones were classified according to the projection of their axons to the spinal cord (bulbospinal neurones) or to the vagal nerves (vagal neurones). Those neurones which could not be activated antidromically (NAA-neurones) by either procedure were subdivided into (inspiratory) R beta-neurones, which were monosynaptically excited by lung stretch receptor afferents, and into inspiratory and expiratory NAA-neurones, which did not receive a direct synaptic input, from these afferents. All types of neurone investigated revealed postsynaptic activity during both inspiration and expiration. The periods when synaptic activity was minimal were the periods of transition between respiratory phases. The input resistance of most respiratory neurones varied in parallel with the respiratory cycle. A drastic fall of the input resistance during expiration was observed in R beta-neurones and in some inspiratory vagal neurones. This was not seen in inspiratory bulbospinal neurones. In stable intracellular recordings, periodic postsynaptic inhibition was demonstrated in 52 of 53 respiratory neurones by IPSP reversal following chloride injection. Maximal membrane potential then was generally reached during one of the periods of respiratory phase transition. Reasons for the failure of others to demonstrate these IPSPs are presented and discrepancies between other findings and these are discussed. It is concluded that reciprocal inhibition between bulbar respiratory neurones does exist and is a general phenomenon. It is argued that reciprocal inhibition is the fundamental mechanism underlying respiratory gating of afferent inputs. The probable existence of recurrent inhibition is inferred from the changes in the pattern of membrane depolarization during the active period of neurones.

Abstract
The relationship between the rate of pancreatic HCO-3 secretion and plasma H+-ion concentration was investigated in 15 pentothal anesthetized, secretin infused pigs (1.8 C.U./kg b.w. h-1, intravenously) during acute metabolic and respiratory acid-base disturbances. Pancreatic HCO-3 secretion increasd to 196 +/- 10% of control during alkalosis and fell to 41 +/- 4% of control during acidosis. Partial metabolic compensation of respiratory acidosis restored HCO-3 secretion to 87 +/- 6% of control. A proportional relationship was found between HCO-3 secretion and plasma pH. Different, proportional relationships were found between HCO-3 secretion and plasma HCO-3 concentration during metabolic and respiratory acid-base changes. HCO-3 secretion was independent of H+-ion concentration in pancreatic juice. Plasma H+-ion concentration, therefore, seems to determine the rate of pancreatic HCO-3 secretion. This finding supports the hypothesis that a proton pump is responsible for pancreatic HCO-3 secretion.

Abstract
The intracellular localization of anion-sensitive Mg2+-ATPase in rat pancreas was studied by differential centrifugation, density gradient centrifugation and by the use of inhibitors of mitochondrial Mg2+-ATPase. The anion-sensitive MG2+-ATPase appears to be localized almost exclusively in a mitochondrial (15 min, 15 000 times g) fraction which shows two peaks after density gradient centrifugation. Both peaks coincide with the highest levels of cytochrome c oxidase activity, but not with alkaline phosphatase, (Na+ plus K+)-ATPase and leucine aminopeptidase activities or RNA. They appear to be equal sensitive to inhibition by oligomycin, aurovertin D and the rat liver mitochondrial inhibitor protein, at least when 1 mM EDTA is present in the isolation media. We conclude that no significant plasma membrane-located anion-sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity is present in rat pancreas.

Abstract
Pancreas of the cat was fractionated into its subcellular components by centrifugation through an exponential ficoll-sucrose density gradient in a zonal rotor. This enables a preparation of four fractions enriched in plasma membranes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and zymogen granules, respectively. The first fraction, enriched by 9- to 15-fold in the plasma membrane marker enzymes, hormone-stimulated adenylate cyclase, (Na+K+)-ATPase, and 5'-nucleotidase, is contaminated by membranes derived from endoplasmic reticulum but is virtually free from mitochondrial and zymogen-granule contamination. The second fraction from the zonal gradient shows only moderate enrichment of the above marker enzymes but contains a considerable quantity of plasma membrane marker enzymes and represents mostly rough endoplasmic reticulum. The third fraction contains the bulk of mitochondria and the fourth mainly zymogen granules as assessed by electron microscopy and marker enzymes for both mitochondria and zymogen granules, namely succinic dehydrogenase, trypsin and amylase. Further purification of the plasma membrane fractions by differential and sucrose step-gradient centrifugation yields plasma membranes enriched 40-fold in basal and hormone-stimulated adenylate cyclase and (Na+K+)-ATPase.

Active buffer transport, e.g. H+ -secretion by stomach and kidney and HCO3--secretion by pancreas and salivary glands, is linked with the presence of a HCO3-stimulated ATP-Phosphohydrolase. In contrast to (Na+ -k+)-ATPase which is considered to be equivalent to the Na+ pump, the HCO3--ATPase requires only one ion for activation and is insensitive to ouabain. The HCO3--ATPase is found in the plasma membrane of the epithelia, but in contrast to the (Na+ -k+)-ATPase it is located in the luminal cell border. The activity of the HCO3--ATPase changes in parallel along with the rate of active buffer transport, a finding which underlines its importance as a transport enzyme. Several disorders of buffer transport are described which are possibly associated with a defect of the HCO3--ATPase system.

Abstract
Cell membrane potentials in an in vitro preparation of mouse pancreas have been measured and the effects of cholecystokinin-pancreozymin, acetylcholine and secretin studied. The membrane potential-frequency histogram has four distinct peaks and was split into the sum of four Gaussian distributions with means of minus 14, minus 23, minus 32 and minus 41mV. The minus 32 mV peak is attributed to acinar cells which respond to cholecystokinin-pancreozymin or acetylcholine by depolarising to minus 15 to minus 20 mV, the response lasting up to 10 min. The minus 23 and minus 41 mV peaks are due to duct cells. A duct cell has a resting membrane potential of minus 23 mV and hyperpolarises to minus 41 mV in response to secretin stimulation, the response lasting for longer than 15 min. Duct cells regardless of their position in the duct system function electrophysiologically in identical fashion. The secretory sites for enzyme and electrolyte are distinct, the duct cells secrete only electrolyte while the acinar cells secrete only enzymes.

Abstract
1. The secretion of sodium, potassium and lithium has been studied in the isolated cat pancreas, perfused with bicarbonate buffered saline solutions of varying composition and osmolality, and stimulated maximally with secretin.2. Under isosmolal conditions, when perfusate sodium chloride was replaced by sucrose, sodium secretion and potassium secretion were directly related to perfusate sodium concentration, [Na](p).3. When osmolality was varied by increasing or decreasing perfusate sodium chloride concentration, the secretion of sodium and of potassium were maximal at [Na](p) of about 120 and 80 mM respectively.4. At a given [Na](p), sodium secretion was greater under hypo-osmolal conditions than under isosmolal conditions.5. When potassium concentration was varied over the range 0-130 mM under isosmolal conditions, by adjusting perfusate NaCl concentration, the secretion of potassium and of sodium were maximal at [K](p) of about 50 and 10 mM respectively. Water flux was maximal at a [K](p) of 10-15 mM. The concentration of potassium in the secretion was almost identical with that in the perfusate over the whole concentration range.6. Replacement of perfusate sodium by lithium reduced the volume of secretion, though a small secretion was maintained even in the complete absence of sodium. The concentration of lithium in the secretion was generally slightly greater than that in the perfusate.7. Omission of potassium from the perfusate reduced secretion by about 65%. Rubidium was a complete substitute for potassium; caesium was not.8. Energy for secretion is derived largely from oxidative phosphorylation. Secretion was reduced by more than 90% under anaerobic conditions and in the presence of dinitrophenol or cyanide. Removal of glucose from the perfusate reduced secretion by more than 50% within 30 min; lactate was a complete substitute for glucose.9. Ouabain, ethacrinic acid and frusimide, known inhibitors of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity, all inhibited pancreatic electrolyte secretion.10. The observations are interpreted with reference to the nature of active transport processes involved in pancreatic electrolyte secretion.
