Novel ectopic expression of zona pellucida 3 glycoprotein in lung cancer promotes tumor growth. Int J Cancer 2024. [PMID: 39039845 DOI: 10.1002/ijc.35098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
Zona pellucida 3 (ZP3) expression is classically found in the ZP-layer of the oocytes, lately shown in ovarian and prostate cancer. A successful ZP3 ovarian cancer immunotherapy in transgenic mice suggested its use as an attractive therapeutic target. The biological role of ZP3 in cancer growth and progression is still unknown. We found that ~88% of the analyzed adenocarcinoma, squamous and small cell lung carcinomas to express ZP3. Knockout of ZP3 in a ZP3-expressing lung adenocarcinoma cell line, significantly decreased cell viability, proliferation, and migration rates in vitro. Zona pellucida 3 knock out (ZP3-KO) cell tumors inoculated in vivo in immunodeficient non-obese diabetic, severe combined immunodeficient mice showed significant inhibition of tumor growth and mitigation of the malignant phenotype. RNA sequencing revealed the deregulation of cell migration/adhesion signaling pathways in ZP3-KO cells. This novel functional relevance of ZP3 in lung cancer emphasized the suitability of ZP3 as a target in cancer immunotherapy and as a potential cancer biomarker.

Abstract
Electroneutral NaCl transport by Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3, SLC9A3) is the major Na+ absorptive mechanism in the intestine and decreased NHE3 activity contributes to diarrhea. Patients with diabetes often experience gastrointestinal adverse effects and medications are often a culprit for chronic diarrhea in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We have shown previously that metformin, the most widely prescribed drug for the treatment of T2D, induces diarrhea by inhibition of Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3) in rodent models of T2D. Metformin was shown to activate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), but AMPK-independent glycemic effects of metformin are also known. The current study is undertaken to determine whether metformin inhibits NHE3 by activation of AMPK and the mechanism by which NHE3 is inhibited by AMPK. Inhibition of NHE3 by metformin was abolished by knockdown of AMPK-α1 or AMPK-α2. AMPK activation by 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR) phosphorylated NHE3 at S555. S555 is the primary site of phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA), but AMPK phosphorylated S555 independently of PKA. Using Mass spectrometry, we found S563 as a newly recognized phosphorylation site in NHE3. Altering either S555 or S563 to Ala was sufficient to block the inhibition of NHE3 activity by AMPK. NHE3 inhibition is dependent on ubiquitination by the E3 ubiquitin ligase Nedd4-2 and metformin was shown to induce NHE3 internalization via Nedd4-2-mediated ubiquitination. AICAR did not increase NHE3 ubiquitination when S555 or S563 was mutated. We conclude that AMPK activation inhibits NHE3 activity and NHE3 inhibition is associated with phosphorylation of NHE3 at S555 and S563.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We show that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylates NHE3 at S555 and S563 to inhibit NHE3 activity in intestinal epithelial cells. Phosphorylation of NHE3 by AMPK is necessary for ubiquitination of NHE3.

Abstract
Diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide. Iron overload increases the incidence of diabetes and aggravates diabetic complications that cause mortality. Reciprocally, diabetes potentially promotes body iron loading, but the mechanism remains not well understood. In this study, we demonstrated systemic iron excess and the upregulation of iron exporter ferroportin (Fpn) in the enterocytes and macrophages of multiple diabetic mouse models. Increased Fpn expression and iron efflux was also seen in the enterocytes of type 2 diabetic human patients. We further showed that protein kinase C (PKC), which is activated in hyperglycemia, was responsible for the sustained membrane expression of Fpn in physiological and in diabetic settings. For the first time, we identified that PKCs were novel binding proteins and positive regulators of Fpn. Mechanistically, hyperactive PKC promoted exocytotic membrane insertion while inhibited the endocytic trafficking of Fpn in the resting state. PKC also protected Fpn from internalization and degradation by its ligand hepcidin dependent on decreased ubiquitination and increased phosphorylation of Fpn. Importantly, the loss-of-function and pharmacological inhibition of PKC alleviated systemic iron overload in diabetes and hemochromatosis. Our study thus highlights PKC as a novel target in the control of systemic iron homeostasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Acute diarrheal diseases are the second most common cause of infant mortality in developing countries. This is contributed to by lack of effective drug therapy that shortens the duration or lessens the volume of diarrhea. The epithelial brush border sodium (Na+)/hydrogen (H+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) accounts for a major component of intestinal Na+ absorption and is inhibited in most diarrheas. Because increased intestinal Na+ absorption can rehydrate patients with diarrhea, NHE3 has been suggested as a potential druggable target for drug therapy for diarrhea. METHODS A peptide (sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 stimulatory peptide [N3SP]) was synthesized to mimic the part of the NHE3 C-terminus that forms a multiprotein complex that inhibits NHE3 activity. The effect of N3SP on NHE3 activity was evaluated in NHE3-transfected fibroblasts null for other plasma membrane NHEs, a human colon cancer cell line that models intestinal absorptive enterocytes (Caco-2/BBe), human enteroids, and mouse intestine in vitro and in vivo. N3SP was delivered into cells via a hydrophobic fluorescent maleimide or nanoparticles. RESULTS N3SP uptake stimulated NHE3 activity at nmol/L concentrations under basal conditions and partially reversed the reduced NHE3 activity caused by elevated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, and Ca2+ in cell lines and in in vitro mouse intestine. N3SP also stimulated intestinal fluid absorption in the mouse small intestine in vivo and prevented cholera toxin-, Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin-, and cluster of differentiation 3 inflammation-induced fluid secretion in a live mouse intestinal loop model. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest pharmacologic stimulation of NHE3 activity as an efficacious approach for the treatment of moderate/severe diarrheal diseases.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) complications, including diarrhea, constipation, and gastroparesis, are common in patients with diabetes. Dysregulation of the Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 in the intestine is linked to diarrhea and constipation, and recent studies showed that NHE3 expression is reduced in type 1 diabetes and metformin causes diarrhea in the db/db mouse model of type 2 diabetes (T2D) via inhibition of NHE3. In this study, we investigated whether NHE3 expression is altered in type 2 diabetic intestine and the underlying mechanism that dysregulates NHE3. NHE3 expression in the brush border membrane (BBM) of the intestine of diabetic mice and humans was decreased. Protein kinase C (PKC) activation is associated with pathologies of diabetes, and immunofluorescence (IF) analysis revealed increased BBM PKCα abundance. Inhibition of PKCα increased NHE3 BBM abundance and NHE3-mediated intestinal fluid absorption in db/db mice. Previous studies have shown that Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) stimulates intestinal ion transporters. LA increased NHE3 BBM expression and mitigated metformin-mediated inhibition of NHE3 in vitro and in vivo. To understand the underlying mechanism of LA-mediated stimulation of NHE3, we used Caco-2bbe cells overexpressing PKCα that mimic the elevated state of PKCα in T2D. LA diminished PKCα BBM expression, increased phosphorylation of ezrin, and the interaction of NHE3 with NHE regulatory factor 2 (NHERF2). In addition, inhibition of PKCι blocked phosphorylation of ezrin and activation of NHE3 by LA. These findings demonstrate that NHE3 is downregulated in T2D, and LA restores NHE3 expression via regulation of PKCα, PKCι, and ezrin.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We used mouse models of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and human patient-derived samples to show that Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3) expression is decreased in T2D. We show that protein kinase C-α (PKCα) is activated in diabetes and inhibition of PKCα increased NHE3 expression and mitigates diarrhea. We show that Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) stimulates NHE3 via inhibition of PKCα and phosphorylation of ezrin.

Abstract
The kidney plays a central role in maintaining the fluid and electrolyte homeostasis in the body. Bicarbonate transporters NBCn1, NBCn2, and AE2 are expressed at the basolateral membrane of the medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL). In a previous study, NBCn1, NBCn2, and AE2 are proposed to play as a regulatory pathway to decrease NaCl reabsorption in the mTAL under high salt condition. When heterologously expressed, the activity of these transporters could be stimulated by the InsP3R binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IRBIT), L-IRBIT (collectively the IRBITs), or protein phosphatase PP1. In the present study, we characterized by immunofluorescence the expression and localization of the IRBITs, and PP1 in rat kidney. Our data showed that the IRBITs were predominantly expressed from the mTAL through the distal renal tubules. PP1 was predominantly expressed in the TAL, but is also present in high abundance from the distal convoluted tubule through the medullary collecting duct. Western blotting analyses showed that the abundances of NBCn1, NBCn2, and AE2 as well as the IRBITs and PP1 were greatly upregulated in rat kidney by dietary sodium. Co-immunoprecipitation study provided the evidence for protein interaction between NBCn1 and L-IRBIT in rat kidney. Taken together, our data suggest that the IRBITs and PP1 play an important role in sodium handling in the kidney. We propose that the IRBITs and PP1 stimulates NBCn1, NBCn2, and AE2 in the basolateral mTAL to inhibit sodium reabsorption under high sodium condition. Our study provides important insights into understanding the molecular mechanism for the regulation of sodium homeostasis in the body.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an important risk factor in the development of cardiovascular diseases. In addition to increased plasma lipid concentrations, irregular/oscillatory shear stress and inflammatory processes trigger atherosclerosis. Inhibitors of the transcription modulatory bromo- and extra-terminal domain (BET) protein family (BETi) could offer a possible therapeutic approach due to their epigenetic mechanism and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the influence of laminar shear stress, inflammation and BETi treatment on human endothelial cells was investigated using global protein expression profiling by ion mobility separation-enhanced data independent acquisition mass spectrometry (IMS-DIA-MS). For this purpose, primary human umbilical cord derived vascular endothelial cells were treated with TNFα to mimic inflammation and exposed to laminar shear stress in the presence or absence of the BRD4 inhibitor JQ1. IMS-DIA-MS detected over 4037 proteins expressed in endothelial cells. Inflammation, shear stress and BETi led to pronounced changes in protein expression patterns with JQ1 having the greatest effect. To our knowledge, this is the first proteomics study on primary endothelial cells, which provides an extensive database for the effects of shear stress, inflammation and BETi on the endothelial proteome.

Abstract
Background: The present study directly tested the crucial role of intestinal gastrin/CCKBR (cholecystokinin B receptor) in the treatment of salt-sensitive hypertension. Methods: Adult intestine-specific Cckbr-knockout mice (Cckbrfl/flvillin-Cre) and Dahl salt-sensitive rats were studied on the effect of high salt intake (8% NaCl, 6–7 weeks) on intestinal Na+/H+ exchanger 3 expression, urine sodium concentration, and blood pressure. High-salt diet increased urine sodium concentration and systolic blood pressure to a greater extent in Cckbrfl/flvillin-Cre mice and Dahl salt-sensitive rats than their respective controls, Cckbrfl/flvillin mice and SS13BN rats. We constructed gastrin-SiO2 microspheres to enable gastrin to stimulate specifically and selectively intestinal CCKBR without its absorption into the circulation. Results: Gastrin-SiO2 microspheres treatment prevented the high salt-induced hypertension and increase in urine Na concentration by inhibiting intestinal Na+/H+ exchanger 3 trafficking and activity, increasing stool sodium without inducing diarrhea. Gastrin-mediated inhibition of intestinal Na+/H+ exchanger 3 activity, related to a PKC (protein kinase C)-mediated activation of NHERF1 and NHERF2. Conclusions: These results support a crucial role of intestinal gastrin/CCKBR in decreasing intestinal sodium absorption and keeping the blood pressure in the normal range. The gastrointestinal administration of gastrin-SiO2 microspheres is a promising and safe strategy to treat salt-sensitive hypertension without side effects.

Abstract
The five plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) isoforms in the gastrointestinal tract are characterized by distinct cellular localization, tissue distribution, inhibitor sensitivities, and physiological regulation. NHE1 (Slc9a1) is ubiquitously expressed along the gastrointestinal tract in the basolateral membrane of enterocytes, but so far, an exclusive role for NHE1 in enterocyte physiology has remained elusive. NHE2 (Slc9a2) and NHE8 (Slc9a8) are apically expressed isoforms with ubiquitous distribution along the colonic crypt axis. They are involved in pHi regulation of intestinal epithelial cells. Combined use of a knockout mouse model, intestinal organoid technology, and specific inhibitors revealed previously unrecognized actions of NHE2 and NHE8 in enterocyte proliferation and differentiation. NHE3 (Slc9a3), expressed in the apical membrane of differentiated intestinal epithelial cells, functions as the predominant nutrient-independent Na+ absorptive mechanism in the gut. The new selective NHE3 inhibitor (Tenapanor) allowed discovery of novel pathophysiological and drug-targetable NHE3 functions in cystic-fibrosis associated intestinal obstructions. NHE4, expressed in the basolateral membrane of parietal cells, is essential for parietal cell integrity and acid secretory function, through its role in cell volume regulation. This review focuses on the expression, regulation and activity of the five plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchangers in the gastrointestinal tract, emphasizing their role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis, or their impact on disease pathogenesis. We point to major open questions in identifying NHE interacting partners in central cellular pathways and processes and the necessity of determining their physiological role in a system where their endogenous expression/activity is maintained, such as organoids derived from different parts of the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
A major goal in human genetics is to use natural variation to understand the phenotypic consequences of altering each protein-coding gene in the genome. Here we used exome sequencing1 to explore protein-altering variants and their consequences in 454,787 participants in the UK Biobank study2. We identified 12 million coding variants, including around 1 million loss-of-function and around 1.8 million deleterious missense variants. When these were tested for association with 3,994 health-related traits, we found 564 genes with trait associations at P ≤ 2.18 × 10-11. Rare variant associations were enriched in loci from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), but most (91%) were independent of common variant signals. We discovered several risk-increasing associations with traits related to liver disease, eye disease and cancer, among others, as well as risk-lowering associations for hypertension (SLC9A3R2), diabetes (MAP3K15, FAM234A) and asthma (SLC27A3). Six genes were associated with brain imaging phenotypes, including two involved in neural development (GBE1, PLD1). Of the signals available and powered for replication in an independent cohort, 81% were confirmed; furthermore, association signals were generally consistent across individuals of European, Asian and African ancestry. We illustrate the ability of exome sequencing to identify gene-trait associations, elucidate gene function and pinpoint effector genes that underlie GWAS signals at scale.

Abstract
Key points The electrogenic Na+/HCO3−cotransporter NBCe1‐B is widely expressed in many tissues, including pancreas, submandibular gland, brain, heart, etc. NBCe1‐B has very low activity under basal condition due to auto‐inhibition, but can be fully activated by protein interaction with the IP3R‐binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate (IRBIT). The structural components of the auto‐inhibition domain and the IRBIT‐binding domain of NBCe1‐B are finely characterized based on systematic mutations in the present study and data from previous studies. Reducing negative charges on the cytosol side of the transmembrane domain greatly decreases the magnitude of the auto‐inhibition of NBCe1‐B. We propose that the auto‐inhibition domain functions as a brake module that inactivates NBCe1‐B by binding to, via electrostatic attraction, the transmembrane domain; IRBIT activates NBCe1‐B by releasing the brake from the transmembrane domain via competitive binding to the auto‐inhibition domain.
Abstract The electrogenic Na+/HCO3− cotransporter NBCe1‐B is widely expressed in many tissues in the body. NBCe1‐B exhibits only basal activity due to the action of the auto‐inhibition domain (AID) in its unique amino‐terminus. However, NBCe1‐B can be activated by interaction with the IP3R‐binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate (IRBIT). Here, we investigate the molecular mechanism underlying the auto‐inhibition of NBCe1‐B and its activation by IRBIT. The IRBIT‐binding domain (IBD) of NBCe1‐B spans residues 1−52, essentially consisting of two arms, one negatively charged (residues 1−24) and the other positively charged (residues 40−52). The AID mainly spans residues 40−85, overlapping with the IBD in the positively charged arm. The magnitude of auto‐inhibition of NBCe1‐B is greatly decreased by manipulating the positively charged residues in the AID or by replacing a set of negatively charged residues with neutral ones in the transmembrane domain. The interaction between IRBIT and NBCe1‐B is abolished by mutating a set of negatively charged Asp/Glu residues (to Asn/Gln) plus a set of Ser/Thr residues (to Ala) in the PEST domain of IRBIT. However, this interaction is not affected by replacing the same set of Ser/Thr residues in the PEST domain with Asp. We propose that: (1) the AID, acting as a brake, binds to the transmembrane domain via electrostatic interaction to slow down NBCe1‐B; (2) IRBIT activates NBCe1‐B by releasing the brake from the transmembrane domain.

Abstract
IP3 receptor-binding protein released with IP3 (IRBIT) interacts with various ion channels and transporters. An electroneutral type of sodium bicarbonate cotransporter, NBCn1, participates in cell migration, and its enhanced expression is related to cancer metastasis. The effect of IRBIT on NBCn1 and its relation to cancer cell migration remain obscure. We therefore aimed to determine the effect of IRBIT on NBCn1 and the regulation of cancer cell migration due to IRBIT-induced alterations in NBCn1 activity. Overexpression of IRBIT enhanced cancer cell migration and NBC activity. Knockdown of IRBIT or NBCn1 and treatment with an NBC-specific inhibitor, S0859, attenuated cell migration. Stimulation with oncogenic epidermal growth factor enhanced the expression of NBCn1 and migration of cancer cells by recruiting IRBIT. The recruited IRBIT stably maintained the expression of the NBCn1 transporter machinery in the plasma membrane. Combined inhibition of IRBIT and NBCn1 dramatically inhibited the migration of cancer cells. Combined modulation of IRBIT and NBCn1 offers an effective strategy for attenuating cancer metastasis.

Abstract
The IP3 receptor binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IRBIT) plays important roles in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ signaling and intracellular pH. The mammals express two IRBIT paralogs, i.e., IRBIT1 (encoded by AHCYL1) and IRBIT2 (encoded by AHCYL2). The clawed frog Xenopus laevis oocyte is widely used for biophysical studies on ion channels and transporters. It remains unknown whether endogenous IRBIT is expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Here, we cloned from frog oocyte irbit2.L and irbit2.S, orthologs of mammalian IRBIT2. When over-expressed, the frog IRBITs powerfully stimulate the electrogenic Na+/HCO3- cotransporter NBCe1-B as mouse IRBIT2-V2 does. Expression of an isolated Nt fragment of NBCe1-B containing the IRBIT-binding domain greatly decreases NBCe1-B activity in oocytes, suggesting that the basal activity of NBCe1-B contains a large component derived from the stimulation by endogenous frog IRBIT. The frog IRBITs are highly homologous to the mammalian ones in the carboxyl-terminal region, but varies greatly in the amino-terminal (Nt) appendage. Interestingly, truncation study showed that the Nt appendage of IRBIT1 and the long Nt appendage of IRBIT2-V2 modestly enhance, whereas the short Nt appendage of IRBIT2-V4 greatly inhibits the functional interaction between IRBIT and NBCe1-B. Finally, Ala-substitution of Ser68, a key phosphorylation site in the PEST domain of IRBIT, causes distinct functional consequences depending on the structural context of the Nt appendage in different IRBIT isoforms. We conclude that the Nt appendage of IRBITs is not necessary for, but plays an important regulatory role in the functional interaction between IRBIT and NBCe1-B.

Abstract
Although absorption of di- and tripeptides into intestinal epithelial cells occurs via the peptide transporter 1 (PEPT1, also called solute carrier family 15 member 1 (SLC15A1)), the detailed regulatory mechanisms are not fully understood. We examined: (a) whether dipeptide absorption in villous enterocytes is associated with a rise in cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+ ]cyt ), (b) whether the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) is involved in dipeptide-elicited [Ca2+ ]cyt signaling, and (c) what potential consequences of [Ca2+ ]cyt signaling may enhance enterocyte dipeptide absorption. Dipeptide Gly-Sar and CaSR agonist spermine markedly raised [Ca2+ ]cyt in villous enterocytes, which was abolished by NPS-2143, a selective CaSR antagonist and U73122, an phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor. Apical application of Gly-Sar induced a jejunal short-circuit current (Isc), which was reduced by NPS-2143. CaSR expression was identified in the lamina propria and on the basal enterocyte membrane of mouse jejunal mucosa in both WT and Slc15a1-/- animals, but Gly-Sar-induced [Ca2+ ]cyt signaling was significantly decreased in Slc15a1-/- villi. Clotrimazole and TRM-34, two selective blockers of the intermediate conductance Ca2+ -activated K+ channel (IKCa ), but not iberiotoxin, a selective blocker of the large-conductance K+ channel (BKCa ) and apamin, a selective blocker of the small-conductance K+ channel (SKCa ), significantly inhibited Gly-Sar-induced Isc in native tissues. We reveal a novel CaSR-PLC-Ca2+ -IKCa pathway in the regulation of small intestinal dipeptide absorption, which may be exploited as a target for future drug development in human nutritional disorders.

Abstract
Background/Aims Enterocytes express a number of NHE isoforms with presumed localization in the apical (NHE2, 3 and 8) or basolateral (NHE1) membrane. Functional activity and localization of enterocyte NHE isoforms were assessed using fully differentiated Caco-2BBe cells, whose genetic expression profile closely resembles mature enterocytes. Methods The activity of the different NHEs was analyzed by fluorometric pHi-metry in a perfusion chamber with separate apical and basolateral perfusion, using specific inhibitors and shRNA knockdown of NHE2. The expression of the NHEs and of other relevant acid extrusion transporters was quantified by qPCR. Results Quantitative comparison of the mRNA expression levels of the different NHE isoforms in 14 day-differentiated Caco-2BBe cells showed the following order: NHE2>NHE8>NHE3>NHE1. Acid-activated NHE exchange rates in the basolateral membrane were >6-fold higher than in the apical membrane. 79 ± 3 % of the acid-activated basolateral Na+/H+ exchange rate displayed a NHE1-typical inhibitor profile, and no NHE2/3/8 typical activity could be observed. Analysis of the apical Na+/H+ exchange rates revealed that approximately 51 ± 3 % of the total apical activity displayed a NHE2/8-typical inhibitor profile and 31 ± 6 % a NHE3-typical inhibitor profile. Because no selective NHE2 inhibitor is available, a stable NHE2 knockdown cell line (C2NHE2KD) was generated. C2NHE2KD displayed a reduced NHE2-typical apical Na+/H+ exchange rate and maintained a lower steady-state pHi, despite high expression levels of other acid extruders, in particular NBCn1 (Slc4a7). Conclusion Differentiated Caco-2BBe cells display particularly high mRNA expression levels of NHE2, which can be functionally identified in the apical membrane. Although at low intracellular pH, NHE2 transport rate was far lower than that of NHE1. NHE2 activity was nevertheless essential for the maintenance of the steady-state pHi of these cells.

Abstract
Excessive iron increases the incidence of diabetes and worsens diabetic complications. Reciprocally, diabetes induces iron loading, partially attributable to elevated intestinal iron export according to a recent report. Herein, we show that iron uptake and the mRNA expression of iron importer divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) were significantly increased in the duodenum of streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Immunofluorescence staining of human intestinal biopsies revealed increased brush border membrane (BBM) and decreased cytoplasmic DMT1 expression in patients with diabetes, suggesting translocation of DMT1. This pattern of DMT1 regulation was corroborated by immunoblotting results in diabetic mice showing that BBM DMT1 expression was increased by 210%, in contrast to a 60% increase in total DMT1. PKC mediates many diabetic complications, and PKCα activity was increased in diabetic mouse intestine. Intriguingly, diabetic mice with PKCα deficiency did not show increases in iron uptake and BBM DMT1 expression. High-glucose treatment increased plasma membrane DMT1 expression via the activation of PKCα in cultured IECs. Inhibition of PKCα potentiated the ubiquitination and degradation of DMT1 protein. We further showed that high glucose suppressed membrane DMT1 internalization. These findings demonstrate that PKCα promotes microvillus membrane DMT1 expression and intestinal iron uptake, contributing to diabetic iron loading.-Zhao, L., Bartnikas, T., Chu, X., Klein, J., Yun, C., Srinivasan, S., He, P. Hyperglycemia promotes microvillus membrane expression of DMT1 in intestinal epithelial cells in a PKCα-dependent manner.

[PMID: 29808931 DOI: 10.1113/jp276241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2018] [Accepted: 05/11/2018] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
KEY POINTS Slc4a4 (mouse) encodes at least five variants of the electrogenic sodium/bicarbonate transporter NBCe1. The initial 41 cytosolic amino acids of NBCe1-A and -D are unique; NBCe1-A has high activity. The initial 85 amino acids of NBCe1-B, -C and -E are unique; NBCe1-B and -C have low activity. Previous work showed that deleting residues 1-85 or 40-62 of NBCe1-B, or 1-87 of NBCe1-C, eliminates autoinhibition. These regions also include binding determinants for IRBIT (inositol trisphosphate (IP3 )-receptor binding protein released with IP3 ), which relieves autoinhibition. Here, systematically replacing/deleting residues 28-62, we find that only the nine amino acid cationic cluster (residues 40-48) of NBCe1-B is essential for autoinhibition. IRBIT stimulates all but one low-activity construct. We suggest that electrostatic interactions - which IRBIT presumably interrupts - between the cationic cluster and the membrane or other domains of NBCe1 play a central role in tempering the activity of NBCe1-B in the pancreas, brain and other organs. ABSTRACT Variant B of the electrogenic Na+ /HCO3- cotransporter (NBCe1-B) contributes to the vectorial transport of HCO3- in epithelia (e.g. pancreatic ducts) and to the maintenance of intracellular pH in the central nervous systems (e.g. astrocytes). NBCe1-B has very low basal activity due to an autoinhibitory domain (AID) located, at least in part, in the unique portion (residues 1-85) of the cytosolic NH2 -terminus. Previous work has shown that removing 23 amino acids (residues 40-62) stimulates NBCe1-B. Here, we test the hypothesis that a cationic cluster of nine consecutive positively charged amino acids (residues 40-48) is a necessary part of the AID. Using two-electrode voltage clamping of Xenopus oocytes, we assess the activity of human NBCe1-B constructs in which we systematically replace or delete residues 28-62, which includes the cationic cluster. We find that replacing or deleting all residues within the cationic cluster markedly increases NBCe1-B activity (i.e. eliminates autoinhibition). On the background of a cationic clusterless construct, systematically restoring Arg residues restores autoinhibition in two distinct quanta, with one to three Arg residues restoring ∼50%, and four or more Arg residues restoring virtually all autoinhibition. Systematically deleting residues before the cluster reduces autoinhibition by, at most, a small amount. Replacing or deleting residues after the cluster has no effect. For constructs with low NBCe1 activity (but good surface expression, as assessed by biotinylation), co-expression with super-IRBIT (lacking PP1-binding site) restores full activity (i.e. relieves autoinhibition). In summary, the cationic cluster is a necessary component of the AID of NBCe1-B.

Abstract
Epithelial cells lining the gastrointestinal tract require distinct apical and basolateral domains to function properly. Trafficking and insertion of enzymes and transporters into the apical brush border of intestinal epithelial cells is essential for effective digestion and absorption of nutrients. Specific critical ion transporters are delivered to the apical brush border to facilitate fluid and electrolyte uptake. Maintenance of these apical transporters requires both targeted delivery and regulated membrane recycling. Examination of altered apical trafficking in patients with Microvillus Inclusion disease caused by inactivating mutations in MYO5B has led to insights into the regulation of apical trafficking by elements of the apical recycling system. Modeling of MYO5B loss in cell culture and animal models has led to recognition of Rab11a and Rab8a as critical regulators of apical brush border function. All of these studies show the importance of apical membrane trafficking dynamics in maintenance of polarized epithelial cell function.

Abstract
The intestinal epithelial brush border Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 accounts for a large component of intestinal Na absorption. NHE3 is regulated during digestion by signaling complexes on its COOH terminus that include the four multi-PDZ domain-containing NHERF family proteins. All bind to NHE3 and take part in different aspects of NHE3 regulation. Because the roles of each NHERF appear to vary on the basis of the cell model or intestinal segment studied and because of our recent finding that a NHERF3-NHERF2 heterodimer appears important for NHE3 regulation in Caco-2 cells, we examined the role of NHERF3 and NHERF2 in C57BL/6 mouse jejunum using homozygous NHERF2 and NHERF3 knockout mice. NHE3 activity was determined with two-photon microscopy and the dual-emission pH-sensitive dye SNARF-4F. The jejunal apical membrane of NHERF3-null mice appeared similar to wild-type (WT) mice in surface area, microvillus number, and height, which is similar to results previously reported for jejunum of NHERF2-null mice. NHE3 basal activity was not different from WT in either NHERF2- or NHERF3-null jejunum, while d-glucose-stimulated NHE3 activity was reduced in NHERF2, but similar to WT in NHERF3 KO. LPA stimulation and UTP (elevated Ca2+) and cGMP inhibition of NHE3 were markedly reduced in both NHERF2- and NHERF3-null jejunum. Forskolin inhibited NHE3 in NHERF3-null jejunum, but the extent of inhibition was reduced compared with WT. The forskolin inhibition of NHE3 in NHERF2-null mice was too inconsistent to determine whether there was an effect and whether it was altered compared with the WT response. These results demonstrate similar requirement for NHERF2 and NHERF3 in mouse jejunal NHE3 regulation by LPA, Ca2+, and cGMP. The explanation for the similarity is not known but is consistent with involvement of a brush-border NHERF3-NHERF2 heterodimer or sequential NHERF-dependent effects in these aspects of NHE3 regulation. NEW & NOTEWORTHY NHERF2 and NHERF3 are apical membrane multi-PDZ domain-containing proteins that are involved in regulation of intestinal NHE3. This study demonstrates that NHERF2 and NHERF3 have overlapping roles in NHE3 stimulation by LPA and inhibition by elevated Ca2+ and cGMP. These results are consistent with their role being as a NHERF3-NHERF2 heterodimer or via sequential NHERF-dependent signaling steps, and they begin to clarify a role for multiple NHERF proteins in NHE3 regulation.

Abstract
The calcium ion (Ca2+) is a ubiquitous intracellular signaling molecule that regulates diverse physiological and pathological processes, including cancer. Increasing evidence indicates that oncogenes and tumor suppressors regulate the Ca2+ transport systems. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3Rs) are IP3-activated Ca2+ release channels located on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). They play pivotal roles in the regulation of cell death and survival by controlling Ca2+ transfer from the ER to mitochondria through mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAMs). Optimal levels of Ca2+ mobilization to mitochondria are necessary for mitochondrial bioenergetics, whereas excessive Ca2+ flux into mitochondria causes loss of mitochondrial membrane integrity and apoptotic cell death. In addition to well-known functions on outer mitochondrial membranes, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family proteins are localized on the ER and regulate IP3Rs to control Ca2+ transfer into mitochondria. Another regulatory protein of IP3R, IP3R-binding protein released with IP3 (IRBIT), cooperates with or counteracts the Bcl-2 family member depending on cellular states. Furthermore, several oncogenes and tumor suppressors, including Akt, K-Ras, phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML), BRCA1, and BRCA1 associated protein 1 (BAP1), are localized on the ER or at MAMs and negatively or positively regulate apoptotic cell death through interactions with IP3Rs and regulation of Ca2+ dynamics. The remodeling of Ca2+ signaling by oncogenes and tumor suppressors that interact with IP3Rs has fundamental roles in the pathology of cancers.

Abstract
IRBIT [inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)] is a multifunctional protein that regulates several target molecules such as ion channels, transporters, polyadenylation complex, and kinases. Through its interaction with multiple targets, IRBIT contributes to calcium signaling, electrolyte transport, mRNA processing, cell cycle, and neuronal function. However, the regulatory mechanism of IRBIT binding to particular targets is poorly understood. Long-IRBIT is an IRBIT homolog with high homology to IRBIT, except for a unique N-terminal appendage. Long-IRBIT splice variants have different N-terminal sequences and a common C-terminal region, which is involved in multimerization of IRBIT and Long-IRBIT. In this study, we characterized IRBIT and Long-IRBIT splice variants (IRBIT family). We determined that the IRBIT family exhibits different mRNA expression patterns in various tissues. The IRBIT family formed homo- and heteromultimers. In addition, N-terminal splicing of Long-IRBIT changed the protein stability and selectivity to target molecules. These results suggest that N-terminal diversity of the IRBIT family and various combinations of multimer formation contribute to the functional diversity of the IRBIT family.

Abstract
IRBIT is a molecule that interacts with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-binding pocket of the IP3 receptor (IP3R), whereas the antiapoptotic protein, Bcl2l10, binds to another part of the IP3-binding domain. Here we show that Bcl2l10 and IRBIT interact and exert an additive inhibition of IP3R in the physiological state. Moreover, we found that these proteins associate in a complex in mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) and that their interplay is involved in apoptosis regulation. MAMs are a hotspot for Ca2+ transfer between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, and massive Ca2+ release through IP3R in mitochondria induces cell death. We found that upon apoptotic stress, IRBIT is dephosphorylated, becoming an inhibitor of Bcl2l10. Moreover, IRBIT promotes ER mitochondria contact. Our results suggest that by inhibiting Bcl2l10 activity and promoting contact between ER and mitochondria, IRBIT facilitates massive Ca2+ transfer to mitochondria and promotes apoptosis. This work then describes IRBIT as a new regulator of cell death.

Abstract
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) facilitates Na+ absorption and H+ secretion and is expressed in the intestine, proximal tubule, and thick ascending limb of the kidney. While the function of NHE3 for Na+ and [Formula: see text](re)absorption has been defined using conventional NHE3 knockout mice (NHE3-/-), the recent generation of conditional NHE3 knockout mice started to give critical new insight into the role of this protein by allowing for temporal and spatial control of NHE3 expression. For example, in contrast to NHE3-/- mice, knockout of NHE3 in the S1 and S2 segments of the proximal tubule or along the entire tubule/collecting duct does not cause any lethality. Nonabsorbable NHE3 inhibitors have been developed, and preclinical as well as clinical trials indicate possible pharmacological use in fluid overload, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, hyperphosphatemia, and constipation. Some of the therapeutic considerations seem to be directly related to the pharmacodynamic properties of these drugs; however, little is known about the effects of these nonabsorbable NHE3 inhibitors on intestinal phosphate transport and the mechanisms so far remain elusive. This review focuses on novel findings of NHE3 in the intestine and the kidney as well as novel drug developments targeting NHE3.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE)3, a major Na(+) transporter in the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule, is subject to ANG II regulation in renal Na(+)/fluid absorption and blood pressure control. We have previously shown that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IRBIT) mediates ANG II-induced exocytosis of NHE3 in cultured proximal tubule epithelial cells. In searching for scaffold protein(s) that coordinates with IRBIT in NHE3 trafficking, we found that NHE regulatory factor (NHERF)1, NHE3, and IRBIT proteins were coexpressed in the same macrocomplexes and that loss of ANG II type 1 receptors decreased their expression in the renal brush-border membrane. We found that NHERF1 was required for ANG II-mediated forward trafficking and activation of NHE3 in cultured cells. ANG II induced a concomitant increase of NHERF1 interactions with NHE3 and IRBIT, which were abolished when the NHERF1 PDZ1 domain was removed. Overexpression of a yellow fluorescent protein-NHERF1 construct that lacks PDZ1, but not PDZ2, failed to exaggerate the ANG II-dependent increase of NHE3 expression in the apical membrane. Moreover, exogenous expression of PDZ1 exerted a dominant negative effect on NHE3 activation by ANG II. We further demonstrated that IRBIT was indispensable for the ANG II-provoked increase in NHERF1-NHE3 interactions and that phosphorylation of IRBIT at Ser(68) was necessary for the assembly of the NHEF1-IRBIT-NHE3 complex. Taken together, our findings suggest that NHERF1 mediates ANG II-induced activation of renal NHE3, which requires coordination between IRBIT and the NHERF1 PDZ1 domain in binding and transporting NHE3.

Abstract
The human exocrine pancreas consists of 2 main cell types: acinar and ductal cells. These exocrine cells interact closely to contribute to the secretion of pancreatic juice. The most important ion in terms of the pancreatic ductal secretion is HCO3. In fact, duct cells produce an alkaline fluid that may contain up to 140 mM NaHCO3, which is essential for normal digestion. This article provides an overview of the basics of pancreatic ductal physiology and pathophysiology. In the first part of the article, we discuss the ductal electrolyte and fluid transporters and their regulation. The central role of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is highlighted, which is much more than just a Cl channel. We also review the role of pancreatic ducts in severe debilitating diseases such as cystic fibrosis (caused by various genetic defects of cftr), pancreatitis, and diabetes mellitus. Stimulation of ductal secretion in cystic fibrosis and pancreatitis may have beneficial effects in their treatment.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases (PIPKs) are lipid kinases that generate phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2), a critical lipid signaling molecule that regulates diverse cellular functions, including the activities of membrane channels and transporters. IRBIT (IP3R-binding protein released with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) is a multifunctional protein that regulates diverse target proteins. Here, we report that IRBIT forms signaling complexes with members of the PIPK family. IRBIT bound to all PIPK isoforms in heterologous expression systems and specifically interacted with PIPK type Iα (PIPKIα) and type IIα (PIPKIIα) in mouse cerebellum. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that two conserved catalytic aspartate residues of PIPKIα and PIPKIIα are involved in the interaction with IRBIT. Furthermore, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, Mg2+, and/or ATP interfered with the interaction, suggesting that IRBIT interacts with catalytic cores of PIPKs. Mutations of phosphorylation sites in the serine-rich region of IRBIT affected the selectivity of its interaction with PIPKIα and PIPKIIα. The structural flexibility of the serine-rich region, located in the intrinsically disordered protein region, is assumed to underlie the mechanism of this interaction. Furthermore, in vitro binding experiments and immunocytochemistry suggest that IRBIT and PIPKIα interact with the Na+/HCO3− cotransporter NBCe1-B. These results suggest that IRBIT forms signaling complexes with PIPKIα and NBCe1-B, whose activity is regulated by PI(4,5)P2.

Abstract
Besides its capacity to inhibit the 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor, the regulatory protein IRBIT (IP3 receptor binding protein released with IP3) is also able to control the activity of numerous ion channels and electrolyte transporters and thereby creates an optimal electrolyte composition of various biological fluids. Since a reliable execution of spermatogenesis and sperm maturation critically depends on the establishment of an adequate microenvironment, the expression of IRBIT in male reproductive tissue was examined using immunohistochemical approaches combined with biochemical fractionation methods. The present study documents that IRBIT is expressed in Leydig and Sertoli cells. In addition, pronounced IRBIT expression was detected in sperm precursors during early stages of spermatogenesis as well as in spermatozoa. Analyzing tissue sections of rodent epididymides, IRBIT was found to co-localize with the proton pumping V-ATPase and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) at the apical surface of narrow and clear cells. A similar co-localization of IRBIT with CFTR was also observed for Sertoli cells and developing germ cells. Remarkably, assaying caudal sperm in immunogold electron microscopy, IRBIT was found to localize to the acrosomal cap and the flagellum as well as to the sperm nucleus; moreover, a prominent oligomerization was observed for spermatozoa. The pronounced occurrence of IRBIT in the male reproductive system and mature spermatozoa indicates a potential role for IRBIT in establishing the essential luminal environment for a faithful execution of spermatogenesis and epididymal sperm maturation, and suggest a participation of IRBIT during maturation steps after ejaculation and/or the final fertilization process.

Abstract
Diarrhea is one of the troublesome complications of diabetes, and the underlying causes of this problem are complex. Here, we investigated whether altered electrolyte transport contributes to diabetic diarrhea. We found that the expression of Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3 and several scaffold proteins, including NHE3 regulatory factors (NHERFs), inositol trisphosphate (IP₃) receptor-binding protein released with IP₃ (IRBIT), and ezrin, was decreased in the intestinal brush border membrane (BBM) of mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Treatment of diabetic mice with insulin restored intestinal NHE3 activity and fluid absorption. Molecular analysis revealed that NHE3, NHERF1, IRBIT, and ezrin form macrocomplexes, which are perturbed under diabetic conditions, and insulin administration reconstituted these macrocomplexes and restored NHE3 expression in the BBM. Silencing of NHERF1 or IRBIT prevented NHE3 trafficking to the BBM and insulin-dependent NHE3 activation. IRBIT facilitated the interaction of NHE3 with NHERF1 via protein kinase D2-dependent phosphorylation. Insulin stimulated ezrin phosphorylation, which enhanced the interaction of ezrin with NHERF1, IRBIT, and NHE3. Additionally, oral administration of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) increased NHE3 activity and fluid absorption in diabetic mice via an insulin-independent pathway. Together, these findings indicate the importance of NHE3 in diabetic diarrhea and suggest LPA administration as a potential therapeutic strategy for management of diabetic diarrhea.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchange by Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) is a major route of sodium absorption in the intestine and kidney. We have shown previously that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a small phospholipid produced ubiquitously by all types of cells, stimulates NHE3 via LPA5 receptor. Stimulation of NHE3 activity by LPA involves LPA5 transactivating EGF receptor (EGFR) in the apical membrane. EGFR activates proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) and ERK, both of which are necessary for NHE3 regulation. However, Pyk2 and ERK are regulated by EGFR via independent pathways and appear to converge on an unidentified intermediate that ultimately targets NHE3. The p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) family of Ser/Thr protein kinases is a known effector of EGFR and ERK. Hence, we hypothesized that RSK may be the convergent effector of Pyk2 and ERK although it is not known whether Pyk2 regulates RSK. In this study, we show that Pyk2 is necessary for the maintenance of phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK1) autophosphorylation, and knockdown of Pyk2 or PDK1 mitigated LPA-induced phosphorylation of RSK and stimulation of NHE3 activity. Additionally, we show that RSK2, but not RSK1, is responsible for NHE3 regulation. RSK2 interacts with NHE3 at the apical membrane domain, where it phosphorylates NHE3. Alteration of S663 of NHE3 ablated LPA-induced phosphorylation of NHE3 and stimulation of the transport activity. Our study identifies RSK2 as a new kinase that regulates NHE3 activity by direct phosphorylation.

Abstract
A dysfunction of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) significantly contributes to the reduced salt absorptive capacity of the inflamed intestine. We previously reported a strong decrease in the NHERF family member PDZK1 (NHERF3), which binds to NHE3 and regulates its function in a mouse model of colitis. The present study investigates whether a causal relationship exists between the decreased PDZK1 expression and the NHE3 dysfunction in human and murine intestinal inflammation. Biopsies from the colon of patients with ulcerative colitis, murine inflamed ileal and colonic mucosa, NHE3-transfected Caco-2BBe colonic cells with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) knockdown of PDZK1, and Pdzk1-gene-deleted mice were studied. PDZK1 mRNA and protein expression was strongly decreased in inflamed human and murine intestinal tissue as compared to inactive disease or control tissue, whereas that of NHE3 or NHERF1 was not. Inflamed human and murine intestinal tissues displayed correct brush border localization of NHE3 but reduced acid-activated NHE3 transport activity. A similar NHE3 transport defect was observed when PDZK1 protein content was decreased by shRNA knockdown in Caco-2BBe cells or when enterocyte PDZK1 protein content was decreased to similar levels as found in inflamed mucosa by heterozygote breeding of Pdzk1-gene-deleted and WT mice. We conclude that a decrease in PDZK1 expression, whether induced by inflammation, shRNA-mediated knockdown, or heterozygous breeding, is associated with a decreased NHE3 transport rate in human and murine enterocytes. We therefore hypothesize that inflammation-induced loss of PDZK1 expression may contribute to the NHE3 dysfunction observed in the inflamed intestine.

Abstract
IRBIT (also called AHCYL1) was originally identified as a binding protein of the intracellular Ca(2+) channel inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor and functions as an inhibitory regulator of this receptor. Unexpectedly, many functions have subsequently been identified for IRBIT including the activation of multiple ion channels and ion transporters, such as the Na(+)/HCO3(-) co-transporter NBCe1-B, the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3, the Cl(-) channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), and the Cl(-)/HCO3(-) exchanger Slc26a6. The characteristic serine-rich region in IRBIT plays a critical role in the functions of this protein. In this review, we describe the evolution, domain structure, expression pattern, and physiological roles of IRBIT and discuss the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the coordinated regulation of these diverse ion channels/transporters through IRBIT. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Calcium signaling in health and disease. Guest Editors: Geert Bultynck, Jacques Haiech, Claus W. Heizmann, Joachim Krebs, and Marc Moreau.

Abstract
A central function of epithelia is the control of the volume and electrolyte composition of bodily fluids through vectorial transport of electrolytes and the obligatory H2O. In exocrine glands, fluid and electrolyte secretion is carried out by both acinar and duct cells, with the portion of fluid secreted by each cell type varying among glands. All acinar cells secrete isotonic, plasma-like fluid, while the duct determines the final electrolyte composition of the fluid by absorbing most of the Cl(-) and secreting HCO3 (-). The key transporters mediating acinar fluid and electrolyte secretion are the basolateral Na(+)/K(+) /2Cl(-) cotransporter, the luminal Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channel ANO1 and basolateral and luminal Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels. Ductal fluid and HCO3 (-) secretion are mediated by the basolateral membrane Na(+)-HCO3 (-) cotransporter NBCe1-B and the luminal membrane Cl(-)/HCO3 (-) exchanger slc26a6 and the Cl(-) channel CFTR. The function of the transporters is regulated by multiple inputs, which in the duct include major regulation by the WNK/SPAK pathway that inhibit secretion and the IRBIT/PP1 pathway that antagonize the effects of the WNK/SPAK pathway to both stimulate and coordinate the secretion. The function of these regulatory pathways in secretory glands acinar cells is yet to be examined. An important concept in biology is synergism among signaling pathways to generate the final physiological response that ensures regulation with high fidelity and guards against cell toxicity. While synergism is observed in all epithelial functions, the molecular mechanism mediating the synergism is not known. Recent work reveals a central role for IRBIT as a third messenger that integrates and synergizes the function of the Ca(2+) and cAMP signaling pathways in activation of epithelial fluid and electrolyte secretion. These concepts are discussed in this review using secretion by the pancreatic and salivary gland ducts as model systems.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (Ang II), acting via the AT1 receptor, induces an increase in intracellular calcium [Ca(2+)]i that then interacts with calmodulin (CaM). The Ca(2+)/CaM complex directly or indirectly activates sodium hydrogen exchanger 1 (NHE1) and phosphorylates calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII), which then regulates sodium hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) activity. In this study, we investigated the cellular signaling pathways responsible for Ang II-mediated regulation of NHE1 and NHE3 in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. The NHE1- and NHE3-dependent pHi recovery rates were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy using the fluorescent probe BCECF/AM, messenger RNA was evaluated with the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and protein expression was evaluated by immunoblot. We demonstrated that treatment with Ang II (1pM or 1 nM) for 30 min induced, via the AT1 but not the AT2 receptor, an equal increase in NHE1 and NHE3 activity that was reduced by the specific inhibitors HOE 694 and S3226, respectively. Ang II (1 nM) did not change the total expression of NHE1, NHE3 or calmodulin, but it induced CaMKII, cRaf-1, Erk1/2 and p90(RSK) phosphorylation. The stimulatory effects of Ang II (1 nM) on NHE1 or NHE3 activity or protein abundance was reduced by ophiobolin-A (CaM inhibitor), KN93 (CaMKII inhibitor) or PD98059 (Mek inhibitor). These results indicate that after 30 min, Ang II treatment may activate G protein-dependent pathways, including the AT1/PLC/Ca(2+)/CaM pathway, which induces CaMKII phosphorylation to stimulate NHE3 and induces cRaf-1/Mek/Erk1/2/p90(RSK) activity to stimulate NHE1.

Abstract
This brief review of the human Na/H exchanger gene family introduces a new classification with three subgroups to the SLC9 gene family. Progress in the structure and function of this gene family is reviewed with structure based on homology to the bacterial Na/H exchanger NhaA. Human diseases which result from genetic abnormalities of the SLC9 family are discussed although the exact role of these transporters in causing any disease is not established, other than poorly functioning NHE3 in congenital Na diarrhea.

Abstract
The mammalian Slc4 (Solute carrier 4) family of transporters is a functionally diverse group of 10 multi-spanning membrane proteins that includes three Cl-HCO3 exchangers (AE1-3), five Na(+)-coupled HCO3(-) transporters (NCBTs), and two other unusual members (AE4, BTR1). In this review, we mainly focus on the five mammalian NCBTs-NBCe1, NBCe2, NBCn1, NDCBE, and NBCn2. Each plays a specialized role in maintaining intracellular pH and, by contributing to the movement of HCO3(-) across epithelia, in maintaining whole-body pH and otherwise contributing to epithelial transport. Disruptions involving NCBT genes are linked to blindness, deafness, proximal renal tubular acidosis, mental retardation, and epilepsy. We also review AE1-3, AE4, and BTR1, addressing their relevance to the study of NCBTs. This review draws together recent advances in our understanding of the phylogenetic origins and physiological relevance of NCBTs and their progenitors. Underlying these advances is progress in such diverse disciplines as physiology, molecular biology, genetics, immunocytochemistry, proteomics, and structural biology. This review highlights the key similarities and differences between individual NCBTs and the genes that encode them and also clarifies the sometimes confusing NCBT nomenclature.

Abstract
Fluid and electrolyte homeostasis is a fundamental physiological function required for survival and is associated with a plethora of diseases when aberrant. Systemic fluid and electrolyte composition is regulated by the kidney, and all secretory epithelia generate biological fluids with defined electrolyte composition by vectorial transport of ions and the obligatory water. A major regulatory pathway that immerged in the last several years is regulation of ion transporters by the WNK/SPAK kinases and IRBIT/PP1 pathways. The IRBIT/PP1 pathway functions to reverse the effects of the WNK/SPAK kinases pathway, as was demonstrated for NBCe1-B and CFTR. Since many transporters involved in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis are affected by PP1 and/or calcineurin, it is possible that WNK/SPAK and IRBIT/PP1 form a common regulatory pathway to tune the activity of fluid and electrolyte transport in response to physiological demands.

Abstract
Fluid and HCO3(-) secretion is a vital function of secretory epithelia, involving basolateral HCO3(-) entry through the Na(+)-HCO3(-) cotransporter (NBC) NBCe1-B, and luminal HCO3(-) exit mediated by cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and solute carrier family 26 (SLC26) Cl(-)/HCO3(-) exchangers. HCO3(-) secretion is highly regulated, with the WNK/SPAK kinase pathway setting the resting state and the IRBIT/PP1 pathway setting the stimulated state. However, we know little about the relationships between the WNK/SPAK and IRBIT/PP1 sites in the regulation of the transporters. The first 85 N-terminal amino acids of NBCe1-B function as an autoinhibitory domain. Here we have identified a positively charged module within NBCe1-B(37-65) that is conserved in NBCn1-A and all 20 members of the NBC superfamily except NBCe1-A. This module is required for the interaction and activation of NBCe1-B and NBCn1-A by IRBIT and their regulation by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Activation of the transporters by IRBIT and PIP2 is nonadditive but complementary. Phosphorylation of Ser65 mediates regulation of NBCe1-B by SPAK, and phosphorylation of Thr49 is required for regulation by IRBIT and SPAK. Sequence searches using the NBCe1-B regulatory module as a template identified a homologous sequence in the CFTR R domain and Slc26a6 sulfat transporter and antisigma factor antagonist (STAS) domain. Accordingly, the R and STAS domains bind IRBIT, and the R domain is required for activation of CFTR by IRBIT. These findings reveal convergence of regulatory modalities in a conserved domain of the NBC that may be present in other HCO3(-) transporters and thus in the regulation of epithelial fluid and HCO3(-) secretion.

Abstract
Regulation of intracellular pH is critical for the maintenance of cell homeostasis in response to stress. We used yeast two-hybrid screening to identify novel interacting partners of the pH-regulating transporter NBCe1-B. We identified Hsp70-like stress 70 protein chaperone (STCH) as interacting with NBCe1-B at the N-terminal (amino acids 96-440) region. Co-injection of STCH and NBCe1-B cRNA into Xenopus oocytes significantly increased surface expression of NBCe1-B and enhanced bicarbonate conductance compared with NBCe1-B cRNA alone. STCH siRNA decreased the rate of Na(+)-dependent pHi recovery from NH4(+) pulse-induced acidification in an HSG (human submandibular gland ductal) cell line. We observed that in addition to NBCe1-B, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE)-dependent pHi recovery was also impaired by STCH siRNA and further confirmed the interaction of STCH with NHE1 but not plasma membrane Ca(2+) ATPase. Both NBCe1-B and NHE1 interactions were dependent on a specific 45-amino acid region of STCH. In conclusion, we identify a novel role of STCH in the regulation of pHi through site-specific interactions with NBCe1-B and NHE1 and subsequent modulation of membrane transporter expression. We propose STCH may play a role in pHi regulation at times of cellular stress by enhancing the recovery from intracellular acidification.

Abstract
The Caco-2 cell line represents absorptive polarized intestinal epithelial cells that express multiple forms of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) in their plasma membranes. Caco-2 cells express the major apical NHE isoform NHE3, but low NHE3 expression together with inefficient transfection often hamper intended studies. In this study, we examined whether SK-CO15 cells could be used to study NHE3 regulation. SK-CO15 cells grown on Transwell inserts developed polarized epithelial cells with microvilli. The transfection efficiency of SK-CO15 cells was markedly higher compared with Caco-2 cells, an advantage in gene transfer and knockout. SK-CO15 cells expressed NHE1, NHE2, and NHE3. NHE3 expression was significantly greater in these cells than Caco-2, and NHE3 comprised more than half of total NHE activity. Apical expression of NHE3 in SK-CO15 cells was confirmed by confocal immunofluorescence and surface biotinylation. NHE regulatory factors NHERF1 and NHERF2, which are important for regulation of NHE3 activity, were expressed in these cells. Stimulatory response of NHE3 in SK-CO15 cells was assessed by dexamethasone and lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Treatment with dexamethasone for 24-48 h increased NHE3 expression and activity. Similarly to Caco-2 cells, SK-CO15 cells lacked the expression of the LPA receptor LPA(5,) but exogenous expression of LPA(5) resulted in acute stimulation of NHE3. Forskolin acutely inhibited NHE3 activity in SK-CO15 cells, further attesting the validity of these cells. We conclude that SK-CO15 cells with the amenity for transfection and high endogenous NHE3 expression are a new and better cell model for NHE3 regulatory investigation than widely used Caco-2 cells.

Abstract
Fluid and HCO(3)(-) secretion is a vital function of all epithelia and is required for the survival of the tissue. Aberrant fluid and HCO(3)(-) secretion is associated with many epithelial diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, pancreatitis, Sjögren's syndrome, and other epithelial inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Significant progress has been made over the last 20 years in our understanding of epithelial fluid and HCO(3)(-) secretion, in particular by secretory glands. Fluid and HCO(3)(-) secretion by secretory glands is a two-step process. Acinar cells secrete isotonic fluid in which the major salt is NaCl. Subsequently, the duct modifies the volume and electrolyte composition of the fluid to absorb the Cl(-) and secrete HCO(3)(-). The relative volume secreted by acinar and duct cells and modification of electrolyte composition of the secreted fluids varies among secretory glands to meet their physiological functions. In the pancreas, acinar cells secrete a small amount of NaCl-rich fluid, while the duct absorbs the Cl(-) and secretes HCO(3)(-) and the bulk of the fluid in the pancreatic juice. Fluid secretion appears to be driven by active HCO(3)(-) secretion. In the salivary glands, acinar cells secrete the bulk of the fluid in the saliva that is driven by active Cl(-) secretion and contains high concentrations of Na(+) and Cl(-). The salivary glands duct absorbs both the Na(+) and Cl(-) and secretes K(+) and HCO(3)(-). In this review, we focus on the molecular mechanism of fluid and HCO(3)(-) secretion by the pancreas and salivary glands, to highlight the similarities of the fundamental mechanisms of acinar and duct cell functions, and to point out the differences to meet gland-specific secretions.

Abstract
The Na(+/)H(+) exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) is essential for HCO(3)(-) reabsorption in renal proximal tubules. The expression and function of NHE3 must adapt to acid-base conditions. The goal of this study was to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for higher proton secretion in proximal tubules during acidosis and to evaluate whether there are differences between metabolic and respiratory acidosis with regard to NHE3 modulation and, if so, to identify the relevant parameters that may trigger these distinct adaptive responses. We achieved metabolic acidosis by lowering HCO(3)(-) concentration in the cell culture medium and respiratory acidosis by increasing CO(2) tension in the incubator chamber. We found that cell-surface NHE3 expression was increased in response to both forms of acidosis. Mild (pH 7.21 ± 0.02) and severe (6.95 ± 0.07) metabolic acidosis increased mRNA levels, at least in part due to up-regulation of transcription, whilst mild (7.11 ± 0.03) and severe (6.86 ± 0.01) respiratory acidosis did not up-regulate NHE3 expression. Analyses of the Nhe3 promoter region suggested that the regulatory elements sensitive to metabolic acidosis are located between -466 and -153 bp, where two consensus binding sites for SP1, a transcription factor up-regulated in metabolic acidosis, were localised. We conclude that metabolic acidosis induces Nhe3 promoter activation, which results in higher mRNA and total protein level. At the plasma membrane surface, NHE3 expression was increased in metabolic and respiratory acidosis alike, suggesting that low pH is responsible for NHE3 displacement to the cell surface.

Abstract
Two maneuvers known to stimulate electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1 (NBCe1) activity are 1) deletion from the cytosolic amino-terminus (Nt) of NBCe1-C of an 87-amino acid sequence that contains an autoinhibitory domain (AID); and 2) binding of the protein IRBIT to elements within the same 87-amino acid module in a different variant, NBCe1-B. Helpful to understanding the relationship between these two phenomena would be an appreciation of the relative magnitude of stimulation caused by each maneuver for the same NBCe1 variant. In the present study, we performed two-electrode voltage-clamp on Xenopus oocytes expressing human NBCe1-B constructs, with and without human IRBIT constructs. We find that removal of the AID stimulates NBCe1-B to the same extent as coexpression of wild-type IRBIT. The potency of wild-type IRBIT apparently is reduced by the action of endogenous oocyte protein phosphatases: a mutant IRBIT that cannot be influenced by the action of protein phosphatase-1 stimulates NBCe1-B to an extent 50% greater than can be achieved by removal of the NBCe1-B AID. Thus the stimulatory effect of IRBIT cannot be explained solely by masking of autoinhibitory determinants within the AID. Finally, we find that an NBCe1-B construct that lacks amino acid residues 2-16 of the Nt is fully autoinhibited, but cannot be stimulated by IRBIT, indicating that autoinhibitory and IRBIT-binding determinants within the cytosolic Nt are not identical.

Abstract
SGK1 plays an important role in regulation of Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) 3 in vivo. We show that SGK3 colocalizes with NHE3 in recycling endosomes. These studies identify SGK3 as the effector of the PI3K pathway that activates NHE3 and show that endosomal localization of SGK3 is essential for acute activation of NHE3. Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3) is the major Na+ transporter in the intestine. Serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase (SGK) 1 interacts with NHE regulatory factor 2 (NHERF2) and mediates activation of NHE3 by dexamethasone (Dex) in cultured epithelial cells. In this study, we compared short-term regulation of NHE3 by Dex in SGK1-null and NHERF2-null mice. In comparison to wild-type mice, loss of SGK1 or NHERF2 significantly attenuated regulation of NHE3 by Dex but did not completely obliterate the effect. We show that transfection of SGK2 or SGK3 in PS120 cells resulted in robust activation of NHE3 by Dex. However, unlike SGK1 or SGK2, SGK3 rapidly activated NHE3 within 15 min of Dex treatment in both PS120 and Caco-2bbe cells. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that SGK3 colocalized with NHE3 in recycling endosomes, whereas SGK1 and SGK2 were diffusely distributed. Mutation of Arg-90 of SGK3 disrupted the endosomal localization of SGK3 and delayed NHE3 activation. Activation of SGK3 and NHE3 by Dex was dependent on phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK1), and Dex induced translocation of PDK1 to endosomes. Our study identifies SGK3 as a novel endosomal kinase that acutely regulates NHE3 in a PI3K-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
Na(+) absorption is a vital process present in all living organisms. We have reported previously that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) acutely stimulates Na(+) and fluid absorption in human intestinal epithelial cells and mouse intestine by stimulation of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) via LPA(5) receptor. In the current study, we investigated the mechanism of NHE3 activation by LPA(5) in Caco-2bbe cells. LPA(5)-dependent activation of NHE3 was blocked by mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor PD98059 and U0126, but not by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 or phospholipase C-β inhibitor U73122. We found that LPA(5) transactivated the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and that inhibition of EGFR blocked LPA(5)-dependent activation of NHE3, suggesting an obligatory role of EGFR in the NHE3 regulation. Confocal immunofluorescence and surface biotinylation analyses showed that LPA(5) was located mostly in the apical membrane. EGFR, on the other hand, showed higher expression in the basolateral membrane. However, inhibition of apical EGFR, but not basolateral EGFR, abrogated LPA-induced regulation of MEK and NHE3, indicating that LPA(5) selectively activates apical EGFR. Furthermore, transactivation of EGFR independently activated the MEK-ERK pathway and proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2). Similarly to MEK inhibition, knockdown of Pyk2 blocked activation of NHE3 by LPA. Furthermore, we showed that RhoA and Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) are involved in activation of Pyk2. Interestingly, LPA(5) did not directly activate RhoA but was required for transactivation of EGFR. Together, these results unveil a pivotal role of apical EGFR in NHE3 regulation by LPA and show that the RhoA-ROCK-Pyk2 and MEK-ERK pathways converge onto NHE3.

Abstract
Na(+) and Cl(-) movement across the intestinal epithelium occurs by several interconnected mechanisms: (a) nutrient-coupled Na(+) absorption, (b) electroneutral NaCl absorption, (c) electrogenic Cl(-) secretion by CFTR, and (d) electrogenic Na(+) absorption by ENaC. All these transport modes require a favorable electrochemical gradient maintained by the basolateral Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, a Cl(-) channel, and K(+) channels. Electroneutral NaCl absorption is observed from the small intestine to the distal colon. This transport is mediated by apical Na(+)/H(+) (NHE2/3) and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) (Slc26a3/a6 and others) exchangers that provide the major route of NaCl absorption. Electroneutral NaCl absorption and Cl(-) secretion by CFTR are oppositely regulated by the autonomic nerve system, the immune system, and the endocrine system via PKAα, PKCα, cGKII, and/or SGK1. This integrated regulation requires the formation of macromolecular complexes, which are mediated by the NHERF family of scaffold proteins and involve internalization of NHE3. Through use of knockout mice and human mutations, a more detailed understanding of the integrated as well as subtle regulation of electroneutral NaCl absorption by the mammalian intestine has emerged.

Abstract
Angiotensin (ANG) II via AT1 receptors (AT1Rs) maintains sodium homeostasis by regulating renal sodium transporters including Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) in a biphasic manner. Low-ANG II concentration stimulates whereas high concentrations inhibit NHE3 activity. Oxidative stress has been shown to upregulate AT1R function that could modulate the ANG II-mediated NHE3 regulation. This study was designed to identify the signaling pathways responsible for ANG II-mediated biphasic regulation of proximal tubular NHE3 and the effect of oxidative stress on this phenomenon. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were chronically treated with a pro-oxidant L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) with and without an antioxidant tempol in tap water for 3 wk. BSO-treated rats exhibited oxidative stress and high blood pressure. At low concentration (1 pM) ANG II increased NHE3 activity in proximal tubules from all animals. However, in BSO-treated rats, the stimulation was more robust and was normalized by tempol treatment. ANG II (1 pM)-mediated NHE3 activation was abolished by AT1R blocker, intracellular Ca(2+) chelator, and inhibitors of phospholipase C (PLC) and Ca(2+)-dependent calmodulin (CaM) but it was insensitive to Giα and protein kinase C inhibitors or AT2R antagonist. A high concentration of ANG II (1 μM) inhibited NHE3 activity in control and tempol-treated rats. However, in BSO-treated rats, ANG II (1 μM) continued to induce NHE3 stimulation. Tempol restored the inhibitory effect of ANG II (1 μM) in BSO-treated rats. The inhibitory effect of ANG II (1 μM) involved AT1R-dependent, cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) activation and was independent of AT2 receptor and nitric oxide signaling. We conclude that ANG II stimulates NHE3 via AT1R-PLC-CaM pathway and inhibits NHE3 by AT1R-PKG activation. Oxidative stress impaired ANG II-mediated NHE3 biphasic response in that stimulation was observed at both high- and low-ANG II concentration.

Abstract
IRBIT (IP(3)Rs binding protein released with IP(3)) is a protein originally identified by the Mikoshiba group as an inhibitor of IP(3) receptors function. Subsequently it was found to have multiple functions and regulate the activity of diverse proteins, including regulation of HCO(3)(-) transporters to coordinate epithelial HCO(3)(-) secretion and to determine localization of the Fip1 subunit of the CPSF complex to regulate mRNA processing. This review highlights the remarkably divers functions of IRBIT that are likely only a fraction of all the potential functions of this protein.
