Sato J, Nakano K, Miyazaki H. Decreased intracellular chloride enhances cell migration and invasion via activation of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in DU145 human prostate carcinoma cells. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 685:149170. [PMID: 37924777 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.149170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
Our previous study revealed that changes of the intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl-]i) affected cell proliferation in cancer cells. However, the role of Cl- on cell migration and invasion in cancer cells remains unanalyzed. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate whether changes of [Cl-]i affects cell migration and invasion of cancer cells. In human prostate cancer DU145 cells, cell migration and invasion were enhanced by culturing in the low Cl- medium (replacement of Cl- by NO3-). We also found that DU145 cells in the low Cl- condition caused significant transient ERK1/2 activation followed by an increase of MMP-1 mRNA levels. Inhibition of ERK1/2 activation in the low Cl- condition reduced enhancement of MMP-1 mRNA levels and decreased cell migration and invasion. These observations indicate that [Cl-]i plays important roles in metastatic function by regulating the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in human prostate cancer cells, and intracellular Cl- would be one of the key targets for anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3) belongs to the TRP ion channel super family and functions as a nonselective cation channel that is highly permeable to calcium. This channel is strongly expressed in skin keratinocytes and is involved in warmth sensation, itch, wound healing and secretion of several cytokines. Previous studies showed that anoctamin1 (ANO1), a calcium-activated chloride channel, was activated by calcium influx through TRPV1, TRPV4 or TRPA1 and that these channel interactions were important for TRP channel-mediated physiological functions. We found that ANO1 was expressed by normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). We observed that ANO1 mediated currents upon TRPV3 activation of NHEKs and mouse skin keratinocytes. Using an in vitro wound-healing assay, we observed that either a TRPV3 blocker, an ANO1 blocker or low chloride medium inhibited cell migration and proliferation through p38 phosphorylation, leading to cell cycle arrest. These results indicated that chloride influx through ANO1 activity enhanced wound healing by keratinocytes.

Abstract
Small inhaled particles, which are entrapped by the mucous layer that is maintained by mucous secretion via mucin exocytosis and fluid secretion, are removed from the nasal cavity by beating cilia. The functional activities of beating cilia are assessed by their frequency and the amplitude. Nasal ciliary beating is controlled by intracellular ions (Ca2+, H+ and Cl-), and is enhanced by a decreased concentration of intracellular Cl- ([Cl-]i) in ciliated human nasal epithelial cells (cHNECs) in primary culture, which increases the ciliary beat amplitude. A novel method to measure both ciliary beat frequency (CBF) and ciliary beat distance (CBD, an index of ciliary beat amplitude) in cHNECs has been developed using high-speed video microscopy, which revealed that a decrease in [Cl-]i increased CBD, but not CBF, and an increase in [Cl-]i decreased both CBD and CBF. Thus, [Cl-]i inhibits ciliary beating in cHNECs, suggesting that axonemal structures controlling CBD and CBF may have Cl- sensors and be regulated by [Cl-]i. These observations indicate that the activation of Cl- secretion stimulates ciliary beating (increased CBD) mediated via a decrease in [Cl-]i in cHNECs. Thus, [Cl-]i is critical for controlling ciliary beating in cHNECs. This review introduces the concept of Cl- regulation of ciliary beating in cHNECs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Carbocisteine (CCis), a mucoactive agent, is used to improve the symptoms of sinonasal diseases. However, the effect of CCis on nasal ciliary beating remains uncertain. We examined the effects of CCis on ciliary beat distance (CBD, an index of amplitude), and ciliary beat frequency (CBF) in ciliated human nasal epithelial cells (cHNECs) in primary culture. METHODS The cHNECs were prepared from the nasal tissue resected from patients required surgery for chronic sinusitis (CS) or allergic rhinitis (AR). CBD and CBF were measured using videomicroscopy equipped with a high-speed camera. RESULTS CCis increased CBD by 30%, but not CBF, and decreased intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl- ]i ) in cHNECs. The CCis' actions were mimicked by the Cl- -free NO3 - solution. In contrast, prior treatment of NPPB (20 μM) or CFTR(inh)-172 (1 μM), which increased [Cl- ]i by 20%, decreased CBF by 10% and CBD by 25% and inhibited the CCis' actions. However, prior treatment of T16Ainh-A01 (10 μM) did not inhibit the CCis' actions, although it decreased [Cl- ]i by 10% and CBD by 15%. Thus, CCis stimulates Cl- channels including cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Moreover, CCis enhanced the transport of microbeads driven by the beating cilia in cHNECs. The CCis actions were similar in cHNECs from both types of pateints. CONCLUSION CCis increased CBD by 30% in cHNECs via an [Cl- ]i decrease stimulated by activation of Cl- channels, including CFTR. CCis may stimulate nasal mucociliary clearance by increasing CBD in patients contracting CS or AR. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE NA. Laryngoscope, 130:E289-E297, 2020.

Ciliary beating amplitude controlled by intracellular Cl - and a high rate of CO 2 production in ciliated human nasal epithelial cells. Pflugers Arch 2019; 471:1127-1142. [PMID: 31104127 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-019-02280-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2019] [Revised: 04/25/2019] [Accepted: 04/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
The ciliary transport is controlled by two parameters of the ciliary beating, frequency (CBF) and amplitude. In this study, we developed a novel method to measure both CBF and ciliary bend distance (CBD, an index of ciliary beating amplitude) in ciliated human nasal epithelial cells (cHNECs) in primary culture, which are prepared from patients contracting allergic rhinitis and chronic sinusitis. An application of Cl--free NO3- solution or bumetanide (an inhibitor of Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransport), which decreases intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl-]i), increased CBD, not CBF, at 37 °C; however, it increased both CBD and CBF at 25 °C. Conversely, addition of Cl- channel blockers (5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB) and 4-[[4-Oxo-2-thioxo-3-[3-trifluoromethyl]phenyl]-5-thiazolidinylidene]methyl] benzoic acid (CFTR(inh)-172)), which increase [Cl-]i, decreased both CBD and CBF, suggesting that CFTR plays a crucial role for maintaining [Cl-]i in these cells. We speculate that Cl- modulates activities of the molecular motors regulating both CBD and CBF in cHNECs. Moreover, application of the CO2/HCO3--free solution did not change intracellular pH (pHi), and addition of an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase (acetazolamide) sustained pHi increase induced by the NH4+ pulse, which transiently increased pHi in the absence of acetazolamide. These results indicate that the cHNEC produces a large amount of CO2, which maintains a constant pHi even under the CO2/HCO3--free condition.

Abstract
MQAE is a 'non-ratiometric' chloride ion (Cl-)-quenched fluorescent indicator that is used to determine intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl-]i). MQAE-based two-photon microscopy is reported to be a useful method to measure [Cl-]i, but it is still controversial because a change in cell volume may alter the MQAE concentration, leading to a change in the fluorescence intensity without any change in [Cl-]i. In an attempt to elucidate the effect or lack of effect of cell volume on MQAE concentration, we studied the effects of changes in cell volume, achieved by applying different levels of osmotic stress, on the intensity of MQAE fluorescence in airway ciliary cells. To study solely the effect of changes in cell volume on MQAE fluorescence intensity, i.e., excluding the effect of any change in [Cl-]i, we first conducted the experiments in a Cl--free nitrate (NO3-) solution to substitute NO3- (non-quenching anion for MQAE fluorescence) for Cl- in the intracellular fluid. Hypo- (- 30 mM NaNO3) or hyper-osmotic stress (+ 30 mM NaNO3) effected changes in cell volume, but the stress did not result in any significant change in MQAE fluorescence intensity. The experiments were also carried out in Cl--containing solution. Hypo-osmotic stress (- 30 mM NaCl) increased both MQAE fluorescence intensity and cell volume, while hyper-osmotic stress (+ 30 mM NaCl) decreased both of these properties. These results suggest that the osmotic stress-induced change in MQAE fluorescence intensity was caused by the change in [Cl-]i and not by the MQAE concentration. Moreover, the intracellular distribution of MQAEs was heterogeneous and not affected by the changes in osmotic stress-induced cell volume, suggesting that MQAEs are bound to un-identified subcellular structures. These bound MQAEs appear to have enabled the measurement of [Cl-]i in airway ciliary cells, even under conditions of cell volume change.

Abstract
The detailed single-channel gating kinetics of mouse pannexin 1 (mPanx1) remains unknown, although mPanx1 is reported to be a voltage-activated anion-selective channel. We investigated characteristics of single-channel conductances and opening and closing rates of mPanx1 using patch-clamp techniques. The unitary current of mPanx1 shows outward rectification with single-channel conductances of ~20 pS for inward currents and ~80 pS for outward currents. The channel open time for outward currents (Cl- influx) increases linearly as the amplitude of single channel currents increases, while the open time for inward currents (Cl- efflux) is constant irrespective of changes in the current amplitude, as if the direction and amplitude of the unitary current regulates the open time. This is supported by further observations that replacement of extracellular Cl- with gluconate- diminishes the inward tail current (Cl- efflux) at a membrane potential of -100 mV due to the lowered outward current (gluconate- influx) at membrane potential of 100 mV. These results suggest that the direction and rate of charge-carrier movement regulate the open time of mPanx1, and that the previously reported voltage-dependence of Panx1 channel gating is not directly mediated by the membrane potential but rather by the direction and amplitude of currents through the channel.

Abstract
It is is well known that insulin stimulates glucose transport and epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC)-mediated Na(+) reabsorption; however, the action of insulin on Cl(-) secretion is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the action of insulin on Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC)-mediated Cl(-) secretion in epithelial A6 cells. Interestingly, insulin treatment remarkably enhanced the forskolin-stimulated Cl(-) secretion associated with an increase in apical Cl(-) conductance by upregulating mRNA expression of both CFTR and NKCC, although insulin treatment alone had no effect on the basal Cl(-) secretion or apical Cl(-) conductance without forskolin application. We next elucidated a role of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) in the insulin-induced enhancement of the Cl(-) secretion, since insulin actually activated PI3K, resulting in activation of Akt, a downstream molecule of PI3K. LY294002 (a PI3K inhibitor) reduced the Cl(-) secretion by suppressing mRNA expression of NKCC, whereas insulin still had a stimulatory action on mRNA expression of CFTR even in the presence of LY294002. On the other hand, we found that a MEK inhibitor (PD98059) further enhanced the insulin-stimulated CFTR mRNA expression and the Cl(-) secretion in forskolin-stimulated A6 cells and that insulin induced slight, transient activation of ERK followed by significant inactivation of ERK. These observations suggest that: (1) insulin respectively upregulates mRNA expression of NKCC and CFTR through activation of PI3K and inactivation of ERK; (2) insulin signals on mRNA expression of NKCC and CFTR are not enough to stimulate transepithelial Cl(-) secretion, but enhance the stimulatory action of cAMP on transepithelial Cl(-) secretion.

J Cell Mol Med 2014; 18:1124-33.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to clarify roles of cytosolic chloride ion (Cl(-) ) in regulation of lysosomal acidification [intra-lysosomal pH (pHlys )] and autophagy function in human gastric cancer cell line (MKN28). The MKN28 cells cultured under a low Cl(-) condition elevated pHlys and reduced the intra-lysosomal Cl(-) concentration ([Cl(-) ]lys ) via reduction of cytosolic Cl(-) concentration ([Cl(-) ]c ), showing abnormal accumulation of LC3II and p62 participating in autophagy function (dysfunction of autophagy) accompanied by inhibition of cell proliferation via G0 /G1 arrest without induction of apoptosis. We also studied effects of direct modification of H(+) transport on lysosomal acidification and autophagy. Application of bafilomycin A1 (an inhibitor of V-type H(+) -ATPase) or ethyl isopropyl amiloride [EIPA; an inhibitor of Na(+) /H(+) exchanger (NHE)] elevated pHlys and decreased [Cl(-) ]lys associated with inhibition of cell proliferation via induction of G0 /G1 arrest similar to the culture under a low Cl(-) condition. However, unlike low Cl(-) condition, application of the compound, bafilomycin A1 or EIPA, induced apoptosis associated with increases in caspase 3 and 9 without large reduction in [Cl(-) ]c compared with low Cl(-) condition. These observations suggest that the lowered [Cl(-) ]c primarily causes dysfunction of autophagy without apoptosis via dysfunction of lysosome induced by disturbance of intra-lysosomal acidification. This is the first study showing that cytosolic Cl(-) is a key factor of lysosome acidification and autophagy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have reported that pH values of ascites and interstitial fluids around the liver in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats are significantly lower than normal pH, 7.40, of mammalian body fluids (Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2013, 432:650), and that this lowered pH of interstitial fluid causes the insulin resistance in diabetic patients by decreasing insulin-binding to its receptors (J Physiol Sci 2013, 63:S199). In the preset study, we tried to measure the interstitial fluid pH in diabetic OLETF rats, since the interstitial fluid pH plays key factors in the brain function from a viewpoint of the binding affinity of neurotransmitters to their receptors. FINDINGS We found that the pH value of interstitial fluids around hippocampus, the most important area for memory, in diabetic OLETF rats was lower than that in normal rats by measuring pH with antimony pH electrodes. CONCLUSIONS The lowered pH of interstitial fluid around hippocampus of the brain in diabetic rats observed in the present study suggests that the function of hippocampus of the brain would be diminished due to low affinity of various types of neurotransmitters, playing key roles in the hippocampus function, to their receptors. Therefore, we indicate that maintenance of the interstitial fluid pH at the normal level would be one of the most important key factors for molecular and cellular therapies in various types of diseases including diabetes mellitus.
