Abstract
Hedgehog proteins (Hhs) secretion from apical and/or basolateral domains occurs in different epithelial cells impacting development and tissue homeostasis. Palmitoylation and cholesteroylation attach Hhs to membranes, and Dispatched-1 (Disp-1) promotes their release. How these lipidated proteins are handled by the complex secretory and endocytic pathways of polarized epithelial cells remains unknown. We show that polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells address newly synthesized sonic hedgehog (Shh) from the TGN to the basolateral cell surface and then to the apical domain through a transcytosis pathway that includes Rab11-apical recycling endosomes (Rab11-ARE). Both palmitoylation and cholesteroylation contribute to this sorting behavior, otherwise Shh lacking these lipid modifications is secreted unpolarized. Disp-1 mediates first basolateral secretion from the TGN and then transcytosis from Rab11-ARE. At the steady state, Shh predominates apically and can be basolaterally transcytosed. This Shh trafficking provides several steps for regulation and variation in different epithelia, subordinating the apical to the basolateral secretion.

Abstract
Targeting of drug carriers to endocytic cell receptors facilitates intracellular drug delivery. Carrier size and number of targeting moieties (valency) influence cell binding and uptake. However, how these parameters influence receptor-mediated cell signaling (the link between binding and uptake) remains uncharacterized. We studied this using polymer carriers of different sizes and valencies, targeted to endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), a marker overexpressed in many pathologies. Unexpectedly, induction of cell signals (ceramide and protein kinase C (PKC) enrichment and activation) and uptake, were independent of carrier avidity, total number of carriers bound per cell, cumulative cell surface area occupied by carriers, number of targeting antibodies at the carrier-cell contact, and cumulative receptor engagement by all bound carriers. Instead, "valency density" (number of antibodies per carrier surface area) ruled signaling, and carrier size independently influenced uptake. These results are key to understanding the interplay between carrier design parameters and receptor-mediated signaling conducive to endocytosis, paramount for intracellular drug delivery.

Abstract
In both unicellular and multicellular organisms, transmembrane (TM) proteins are sorted to and retained at specific membrane domains by endomembrane trafficking mechanisms that recognize sorting signals in the these proteins. The trafficking and distribution of plasma membrane (PM)-localized TM proteins (PM proteins), especially of those PM proteins that show an asymmetric distribution over the PM, has received much attention, as their proper PM localization is crucial for elementary signaling and transport processes, and defects in their localization often lead to severe disease symptoms or developmental defects. The subcellular localization of PM proteins is dynamically regulated by post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation and ubiquitination. These modificaitons mostly occur on sorting signals that are located in the larger cytosolic domains of the cargo proteins. Here we review the effects of phosphorylation of PM proteins on their trafficking, and present the key examples from the animal field that have been subject to studies for already several decades, such as that of aquaporin 2 and the epidermal growth factor receptor. Our knowledge on cargo trafficking in plants is largely based on studies of the family of PIN FORMED (PIN) carriers that mediate the efflux of the plant hormone auxin. We will review what is known on the subcellular distribution and trafficking of PIN proteins, with a focus on how this is modulated by phosphorylation, and identify and discuss analogies and differences in trafficking with the well-studied animal examples.

Abstract
Polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA) transcytosis, mediated by the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), is a central component of mucosal immunity and a model for regulation of polarized epithelial membrane traffic. Binding of pIgA to pIgR stimulates transcytosis in a process requiring Yes, a Src family tyrosine kinase (SFK). We show that Yes directly phosphorylates EGF receptor (EGFR) on liver endosomes. Injection of pIgA into rats induced EGFR phosphorylation. Similarly, in MDCK cells, pIgA treatment significantly increased phosphorylation of EGFR on various sites, subsequently activating extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK). Furthermore, we find that the Rab11 effector Rab11-FIP5 is a substrate of ERK. Knocking down Yes or Rab11-FIP5, or inhibition of the Yes-EGFR-ERK cascade, decreased pIgA-pIgR transcytosis. Finally, we demonstrate that Rab11-FIP5 phosphorylation by ERK controls Rab11a endosome distribution and pIgA-pIgR transcytosis. Our results reveal a novel Yes-EGFR-ERK-FIP5 signalling network for regulation of pIgA-pIgR transcytosis.

Abstract
Shiga toxin 1 and 2 production is a cardinal virulence trait of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection that causes a spectrum of intestinal and systemic pathology. However, intestinal sites of enterohemorrhagic E. coli colonization during the human infection and how the Shiga toxins are taken up and cross the globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) receptor-negative intestinal epithelial cells remain largely uncharacterized. We used samples of human intestinal tissue from patients with E. coli O157:H7 infection to detect the intestinal sites of bacterial colonization and characterize the distribution of Shiga toxins. We further used a model of largely Gb3-negative T84 intestinal epithelial monolayers treated with B-subunit of Shiga toxin 1 to determine the mechanisms of non-receptor-mediated toxin uptake. We now report that E. coli O157:H7 were found at the apical surface of epithelial cells only in the ileocecal valve area and that both toxins were present in large amounts inside surface and crypt epithelial cells in all tested intestinal samples. Our in vitro data suggest that macropinocytosis mediated through Src activation significantly increases toxin endocytosis by intestinal epithelial cells and also stimulates toxin transcellular transcytosis. We conclude that Shiga toxin is taken up by human intestinal epithelial cells during E. coli O157:H7 infection regardless of the presence of bacterial colonies. Macropinocytosis might be responsible for toxin uptake by Gb3-free intestinal epithelial cells and transcytosis. These observations provide new insights into the understanding of Shiga toxin contribution to enterohemorrhagic E. coli-related intestinal and systemic diseases.

Abstract
We investigated the membrane trafficking of AQP3 induced by epinephrine in Caco-2 cells to clarify the digestive absorption of glycerol permeated by AQP3. Epinephrine was found to promote within 60 min the translocation of AQP3 from the cytoplasmic fraction to the plasma membrane. This increased trafficking of AQP3 was suppressed by phospholipase C and protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors and a phorbol ester accelerated the trafficking of AQP3 to the membrane fraction. In contrast, adenylyl cyclase (AC) and protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitors did not have any effect on the increased in trafficking of AQP3 by epinephrine and an AC activator did not affect the trafficking of AQP3. Phosphorylation of a threonine (514) residue in PKC was detected upon the treatment with epinephrine and the temporal transitional pattern of this phosphorylation paralleled that of the increased trafficking of AQP3. These results suggest that PKC modulates the trafficking of AQP3.

Abstract
In polarized epithelial cells syntaxin 3 is at the apical plasma membrane and is involved in delivery of proteins from the trans-Golgi network to the apical surface. The highly related syntaxin 4 is at the basolateral surface. The complementary distribution of these syntaxins suggests that they play a role in the specificity of membrane traffic to the two surfaces. We constructed a chimeric syntaxin where we removed the N-terminal 29 residues of syntaxin 3 and replaced it with the corresponding portion of syntaxin 4. When expressed in polarized epithelial cells, this chimera was exclusively localized to the basolateral surface. This indicates that the N-terminal domain of syntaxin 3 contains information for its polarized localization. In contrast to the apical localization of syntaxin 3, the basolateral localization of syntaxin 4 was not dependent on its N-terminal domain. Syntaxin 3 normally binds to Munc18b, but not to the related Munc18c. Overexpression of the chimera together with overexpression of Munc18b caused membrane and secretory proteins that are normally sent primarily to the apical surface to exhibit increased delivery to the basolateral surface. We suggest that syntaxins may play a role in determining the specificity of membrane targeting by permitting fusion with only certain target membranes.

Abstract
The polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) has been proposed as a therapeutic target, but its potential depends on the efficiency of uptake and trafficking of the receptor ligand. Mouse monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) directed against pIgR, selected for strong binding to secretory component (SC) and secretory IgA (sIgA), were tested in a transcytosis assay in 16HBEo--cells (human bronchial epithelial cell line) transfected with human pIgR. Intracellular trafficking was followed by confocal microscopy. Mabs fell into two classes. For two Mabs, transcytosis from basolateral to apical surface is rapid, unidirectional, and little Mab is retained in the cell. For three Mabs, basolateral to apical transcytosis occurs to a significantly lesser extent, reverse transcytosis is permitted, and some of the Mab is retained in the perinuclear region even after 24 h. When tested for their ability to recognize and immunoprecipitate pIgR with systematic truncations and deletions of the five immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, all Mabs bound to the fifth Ig-like domain, but three of them also bound to the C-terminal region of pIgR near the plasma membrane. Different binding sites probably account for the different trafficking of these Mabs and may predict differential therapeutic utility.

Abstract
Human polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) protein was expressed in the adeno-carcinoma cell line HT-29 using a recombinant vaccinia virus transfection method. The pIgR protein was detected as 110- and 120-kDa bands by immunoprecipitation after metabolic labeling. PIgR was released as a free secretory component into the culture supernatant and was detected as a 110-kDa band. PIgR cleavage was investigated by adding the proteinase inhibitor leupeptin or protein kinase C activator PMA. Consistent with previous observations in the Madin Darby canine kidney cell system, cleavage of pIgR was inhibited by leupeptin and enhanced by PMA stimulation, thus indicating that it is regulated by common mechanisms. This experimental system should be very useful for pIgR investigation.

Abstract
Lysosomes and lysosome-related organelles constitute a system of acid compartments that interconnect the inside of the cell with the extracellular environment via endocytosis, phagocytosis and exocytosis. In recent decades it has been recognized that lysosomes are not just wastebaskets for disposal of unused cellular constituents, but that they are involved in several cellular processes such as post-translational maturation of proteins, degradation of receptors and extracellular release of active enzymes. By complementing the autophagic process, lysosomes actively contribute to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Proteolysis by lysosomal cathepsins has been shown to mediate the death signal of cytotoxic drugs and cytokines, as well as the activation of pro-survival factors. Secreted lysosomal cathepsins have been shown to degrade protein components of the extracellular matrix, thus contributing actively to its re-modelling in physiological and pathological processes. The malfunction of lysosomes can, therefore, impact on cell behaviour and fate. Here we review the role of lysosomal hydrolases in several aspects of the malignant phenotype including loss of cell growth control, altered regulation of cell death, acquisition of chemoresistance and of metastatic potential. Based on these observations, the lysosome is proposed as a potential target organelle for the chemotherapy of tumours. We will also present some recent data concerning the technologies for delivering chemotherapeutic drugs to the endosomal-lysosomal compartment and the strategies to improve their efficacy.

Abstract
Plasma membranes of epithelial cells consist of two domains, an apical and a basolateral domain, the surfaces of which differ in composition. The separation of these domains by a tight junction and the fact that specific transport pathways exist for intracellular communication between these domains and distinct intracellular compartments relevant to cell polarity development, have triggered extensive research on issues that focus on how the polarity is generated and maintained. Apart from proper assembly of tight junctions, their potential functioning as landmark for the transport machinery, cell-cell adhesion is obviously instrumental in barrier formation. In recent years, distinct endocytic compartments, defined as subapical compartment or common endosome, were shown to play a prominent role in regulating membrane trafficking to and from polarized membrane domains. Sorting devices remain to be determined but likely include distinct rab proteins, and evidence is accumulating to indicate that signaling events may direct intracellular membrane transport, intimately involved in the biogenesis and maintenance of polarized membrane domains and hence the development of cell polarity.

Abstract
Clathrin assembly protein, AP180, was originally identified as a brain-specific protein localized to the presynaptic junction. AP180 acts to limit vesicle size and maintain a pool of releasable synaptic vesicles during rapid recycling. In this study, we show that polarized epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells express two AP180-related proteins: the ubiquitously expressed 62-kDa clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM, AP180-2) protein and a novel high-molecular-weight homolog that we have named AP180-3. Sequence analysis of AP180-3 expressed in MDCK cells shows high homology to AP180 from rat brain. AP180-3 contains conserved motifs found in brain-specific AP180, including the epsin NH2-terminal homology (ENTH) domain, the binding site for the α-subunit of AP-2, and DLL repeats. Our studies show that AP180-3 from MDCK cells forms complexes with AP-2 and clathrin and that membrane recruitment of these complexes is modulated by phosphorylation. We demonstrate by immunohistochemistry that AP180-3 is localized to cytoplasmic vesicles in MDCK cells and is also present in tubule epithelial cells from mouse kidney. We observed by immunodetection that a high-molecular-weight AP180-related protein is expressed in numerous cells in addition to MDCK cells.

Abstract
Membrane type 1-matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is an integral type I transmembrane multidomain zinc-dependent endopeptidase involved in extracellular matrix remodelling in physiological as well as pathological processes. MT1-MMP participates in the regulated turnover of various extracellular matrix components as well as the activation of secreted metalloproteinases and the cleavage of various cell membrane components. MT1-MMP expression has been reported to correlate with the malignancy of various tumour types and is thought to be an important mediator of cell migration and invasion. Recently, it has been proposed that internalisation of the enzyme from the cell surface is a major short-term level of MT1-MMP regulation controlling the net amount of active enzyme present at the plasma membrane. In this paper we show that, in HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells, MT1-MMP is internalised from the cell surface and colocalises with various markers of the endocytic compartment. Interestingly, we observed that in these cells, internalisation occurs by a combination of both clathrin-mediated and -independent pathways, most probably involving caveolae. In addition, internalised MT1-MMP is recycled to the cell surface, which could, in addition to downregulation of the enzymatic activity, represent a rapid response mechanism used by the cell for relocalising active MT1-MMP at the leading edge during migration.

Abstract
Transcytosis, the vesicular transport of macromolecules from one side of a cell to the other, is a strategy used by multicellular organisms to selectively move material between two environments without altering the unique compositions of those environments. In this review, we summarize our knowledge of the different cell types using transcytosis in vivo, the variety of cargo moved, and the diverse pathways for delivering that cargo. We evaluate in vitro models that are currently being used to study transcytosis. Caveolae-mediated transcytosis by endothelial cells that line the microvasculature and carry circulating plasma proteins to the interstitium is explained in more detail, as is clathrin-mediated transcytosis of IgA by epithelial cells of the digestive tract. The molecular basis of vesicle traffic is discussed, with emphasis on the gaps and uncertainties in our understanding of the molecules and mechanisms that regulate transcytosis. In our view there is still much to be learned about this fundamental process.

Abstract
We previously showed that expression of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR)/secretory component (SC), the epithelial receptor assuming transport of polymeric IgA in mucosal secretions, is strongly decreased in severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Here, we evaluated in vitro the effects of polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) mediators on pIgR/SC. On polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, soluble SC was rapidly cleaved by supernatants from phorbol-myristate-acetate-activated PMN, through a serine proteinase activity. Moreover, purified PMN serine proteinases also cleaved SC. Similarly, polymeric IgA was rapidly cleaved in monomers by neutrophil elastase, whereas secretory immunoglobulin A was relatively resistant to neutrophil elastase. Surface pIgR on human bronchial epithelial cells was also cleaved by serine proteinases, as shown by immunofluorescence. In contrast, pIgR/SC production by cultured epithelial cells (quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) was significantly increased by supernatants from interleukin-8/formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine-activated PMN (122.6 +/- 17.3 versus 70.9 +/- 9 ng/mg protein, P < 0.01). Upregulation of pIgR/SC production by bronchial epithelial cells was abolished by nuclear factor kappa B- and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. Moreover, supernatants from interleukin-8/formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine-activated PMN induced the phosphorylation of I kappa B-alpha and p38 MAPK in epithelial cells, independently of serine proteinases. Thus, PMN serine proteinases cleave pIgR/SC, whereas activated PMN induce an increased pIgR/SC expression through epithelial activation of nuclear factor kappa B and p38 MAPK pathways.

Abstract
Small GTPase rab proteins play an important role in various aspects of membrane traffic, including cargo selection, vesicle budding, vesicle motility, tethering, docking, and fusion. Recent data suggest also that rabs, and their divalent effector proteins, organize organelle subdomains and as such may define functional organelle identity. Most rabs are ubiquitously expressed. However, some rabs are preferentially expressed in epithelial cells where they appear intimately associated with the epithelial-specific transcytotic pathway and/or tight junctions. This review discusses the role of rabs in epithelial membrane transport.

Abstract
IgA, IgG and IgM are transported across epithelial cells in a receptor-mediated process known as transcytosis. In addition to neutralizing pathogens in the lumen of the gastrointestinal, respiratory and urogenital tracts, these antibody-receptor complexes are now known to mediate intracellular neutralization of pathogens and might also be important in immune activation and tolerance. Recent studies on the intracellular transport pathways of antibody-receptor complexes and antibody-stimulated receptor-mediated transcytosis are providing new insight into the nature and regulation of endocytic pathways.

Abstract
E-cadherin is a major component of adherens junctions in epithelial cells. We showed previously that a pool of cell surface E-cadherin is constitutively internalized and recycled back to the surface. In the present study, we investigated the potential role of protein kinase C (PKC) in regulating the trafficking of surface E-cadherin in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Using surface biotinylation and immunofluorescence, we found that treatment of cells with phorbol esters increased the rate of endocytosis of E-cadherin, resulting in accumulation of E-cadherin in apically localized early or recycling endosomes. The recycling of E-cadherin back to the surface was also decreased in the presence of phorbol esters. Phorbol ester-induced endocytosis of E-cadherin was blocked by specific inhibitors, implicating novel PKC isozymes, such as PKC-epsilon in this pathway. PKC activation led to changes in the actin cytoskeleton facilitating E-cadherin endocytosis. Depolymerization of actin increased endocytosis of E-cadherin, whereas the PKC-induced uptake of E-cadherin was blocked by the actin stabilizer jasplakinolide. Our findings show that PKC regulates vital steps of E-cadherin trafficking, its endocytosis, and its recycling.

Abstract
The human nongastric H+-K+-ATPase, ATP1AL1, shown to reabsorb K+ in exchange for H+ or Na+, is localized in the luminal plasma membrane of renal epithelial cells. It is presumed that renal H+-K+-ATPases can be regulated by endocytosis. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that control plasma membrane expression of renal H+-K+-ATPases. In our study, activation of protein kinase C (PKC) using phorbol esters (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) leads to clathrin-dependent internalization and intracellular accumulation of the ion pump in stably transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Functional inactivation of the H+-K+-ATPase by PKC activation is shown by intracellular pH measurements. Proton extrusion capacity of ATP1AL1-transfected cells is drastically reduced after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate incubation and can be prevented with the PKC blocker bisindolylmaleimide. Ion pump internalization and inactivation are specifically mediated by the PKC pathway, whereas activation of the protein kinase A pathway has no influence. Our results show that the nongastric H+-K+-ATPase is a specific target for the PKC pathway. Therefore, PKC-mediated phosphorylation is a potential regulatory mechanism for apical nongastric H+-K+-ATPase plasma membrane expression.

Abstract
All cells experience and respond to mechanical stimuli, such as changes in plasma membrane tension, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure, and compression. This review is an examination of the changes in membrane traffic that occur in response to mechanical forces. The plasma membrane has an associated tension that modulates both exocytosis and endocytosis. As membrane tension increases, exocytosis is stimulated, which acts to decrease membrane tension. In contrast, increased membrane tension slows endocytosis, whereas decreased tension stimulates internalization. In most cases, secretion is stimulated by external mechanical stimuli. However, in some cells mechanical forces block secretion. External stimuli also enhance membrane and fluid endocytosis in several cell types. Transduction of mechanical stimuli into changes in exocytosis/endocytosis may involve the cytoskeleton, stretch-activated channels, integrins, phospholipases, tyrosine kinases, and cAMP.

Abstract
Differential effects of acetyl(C2-) ceramide (N-acetylsphingosine) were studied on coated vesicle formation from Golgi-enriched membranes of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. C2-ceramide blocked the translocation of ADP-ribosylation factor-1 (ARF-1) and protein kinase C-alpha (PKC-alpha) to the membranes from CHO cells, but not those of MDCK cells. Consequently, C2-ceramide blocked the stimulation of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) by the cytosol and guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) in membranes from CHO cells. Basal specific activity of PLD1 and the concentration of ARF-1 were 3-4 times higher in Golgi-enriched membranes from MDCK cells compared with CHO cells. Moreover, PLD1 activity in MDCK cells was stimulated less by cytosol and GTP[S]. PLD2 was not detectable in the Golgi-enriched membranes. Incubation of intact CHO cells or their Golgi-enriched membranes with C2-ceramide also inhibited COP1 vesicle formation by membranes from CHO, but not MDCK, cells. Specificity was demonstrated, since dihydro-C2-ceramide had no significant effect on ARF-1 translocation, PLD1 activation or vesicle formation in membranes from both cell types. C2-ceramide also decreased the secretion of virus-like particles to a greater extent in CHO compared with MDCK cells, whereas dihydro-C2-ceramide had no significant effect. The results demonstrate a biological effect of C2-ceramide in CHO cells by decreasing ARF-1 and PKC-alpha binding to Golgi-enriched membranes, thereby preventing COP1 vesicle formation.

Abstract
Salmonella typhimurium elicits an acute inflammatory response in the host intestinal epithelium, characterized by the movement of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) across the epithelial monolayer to the intestinal lumen. It was recently shown that SipA, a protein secreted by S. typhimurium, is necessary and sufficient to drive PMN transmigration across model intestinal epithelia (Lee, C. A., Silva, M., Siber, A. M., Kelly, A. J., Galyov, E., and McCormick, B. A. (2000) Proc. Natl. Acad Sci. USA 97, 12283-12288). However, the epithelial factors responsible for this process have not been identified. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate that S. typhimurium-induced PMN transmigration across Madin-Darby canine kidney-polarized monolayers is regulated by the GTPase ARF6. Apically added S. typhimurium promoted the translocation of ARF6 and its exchange factor ARNO to the apical surface. Overexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of ARF6 inhibited Salmonella-induced PMN transmigration, which was due to a reduction in apical release of the PMN chemoattractant PEEC (pathogen-elicited epithelial chemoattractant), without affecting bacterial internalization. Furthermore, ARF6 and its effector phospholipase D (PLD) were both required for bacteria-induced translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) to membranes. These results describe a novel signal transduction pathway, in which Salmonella initiates an ARF6- and PLD-dependent lipid signaling cascade that, in turn, directs activation of PKC, release of PEEC, and subsequent transepithelial PMN movement.

Abstract
Cellular polarization involves the generation of asymmetry along an intracellular axis. In a multicellular tissue, the asymmetry of individual cells must conform to the overlying architecture of the tissue. However, the mechanisms that couple cellular polarization to tissue morphogenesis are poorly understood. Here, we report that orientation of apical polarity in developing Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cysts requires the small GTPase Rac1 and the basement membrane component laminin. Dominant-negative Rac1 alters the supramolecular assembly of endogenous MDCK laminin and causes a striking inversion of apical polarity. Exogenous laminin is recruited to the surface of these cysts and rescues apical polarity. These findings implicate Rac1-mediated laminin assembly in apical pole orientation. By linking apical orientation to generation of the basement membrane, epithelial cells ensure the coordination of polarity with tissue architecture.

Abstract
Mucosal defence mechanisms are critical in preventing colonization of the respiratory tract by pathogens and penetration of antigens through the epithelial barrier. Recent research has now illustrated the active contribution of the respiratory epithelium to the exclusion of microbes and particles, but also to the control of the inflammatory and immune responses in the airways and in the alveoli. Epithelial cells also mediate the active transport of polymeric immunoglobulin-A from the lamina propria to the airway lumen through the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. The role of IgA in the defence of mucosal surfaces has now expanded from a limited role of scavenger of exogenous material to a broader protective function with potential applications in immunotherapy. In addition, the recent identification of receptors for IgA on the surface of blood leukocytes and alveolar macrophages provides an additional mechanism of interaction between the cellular and humoral immune systems at the level of the respiratory tract.

Abstract
Polarized epithelial cells maintain the asymmetric composition of their apical and basolateral membrane domains by at least two different processes. These include the regulated trafficking of macromolecules from the biosynthetic and endocytic pathway to the appropriate membrane domain and the ability of the tight junction to prevent free mixing of membrane domain-specific proteins and lipids. Cdc42, a Rho family GTPase, is known to govern cellular polarity and membrane traffic in several cell types. We examined whether this protein regulated tight junction function in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells and pathways that direct proteins to the apical and basolateral surface of these cells. We used Madin-Darby canine kidney cells that expressed dominant-active or dominant-negative mutants of Cdc42 under the control of a tetracycline-repressible system. Here we report that expression of dominant-active Cdc42V12 or dominant-negative Cdc42N17 altered tight junction function. Expression of Cdc42V12 slowed endocytic and biosynthetic traffic, and expression of Cdc42N17 slowed apical endocytosis and basolateral to apical transcytosis but stimulated biosynthetic traffic. These results indicate that Cdc42 may modulate multiple cellular pathways required for the maintenance of epithelial cell polarity.

Abstract
The intracellular pathway of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) is governed by multiple signals that lead to constitutive transcytosis. In addition, in transfected polarized MDCK cells, polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA) binding stimulates rabbit pIgR-transcytosis, owing to phospholipase-C gamma 1 activation and increase of intracellular calcium. Transcytosis of rat pIgR across hepatocytes is similarly accelerated by pIgA injection. In contrast we show here that human Madrin-Darby Canine Kidney (pIgR)-transcytosis, in human Calu-3 and human pIgR-transfected MDCK cells, is not promoted by pIgA, as monitored by a continuous apical release of its secreted ectodomain. However, the incubation of cells expressing human or rabbit pIgR with pIgA induces a comparable IP3 production, and pIgR-transcytosis of either species is accelerated by the protein kinase C (PKC)-activator phorbol myristate acetate. Without pIgA, mimicking phospholipase-C activation by combining low concentrations of phorbol myristate acetate with ionomycin, or high concentrations of ionomycin alone, stimulates the rabbit, but not the human, pIgR transcytosis. These data suggest that the species difference in pIgA-induced pIgR-transcytosis does not stem from the defective production of second messengers, but from a different sensitivity of pIgR to intracellular calcium. Our results outline the danger of extrapolating to humans the abundant data obtained from mucosal vaccination of laboratory animals.

Abstract
T560, a mouse B lymphoma that originated in gut-associated lymphoid tissue, expresses receptors that bind dimeric IgA and IgM in a mutually inhibitory manner but have little affinity for monomeric IgA. Evidence presented in this paper indicates that the receptor is poly-Ig receptor (pIgR) known in humans and domestic cattle to bind both IgA and IgM. The evidence includes the demonstration that binding of IgM is J chain dependent, and that pIg-precipitated receptor has an appropriate Mr of 116-120 kDa and can be detected on immunoblots with specific rabbit anti-mouse pIgR. Overlapping RT-PCR performed using template mRNA from T560 cells and oligonucleotide primer pairs designed from the published sequence of mouse liver pIgR indicate that T560 cells express mRNA virtually identical with that of the epithelial cell pIgR throughout its external, transmembrane, and intracytoplasmic coding regions. Studies using mutant IgAs suggest that the Calpha2 domain of dimeric IgA is not involved in high-affinity binding to the T560 pIgR. Inasmuch as this mouse B cell pIgR binds IgM better than IgA, it is similar to human pIgR and differs from rat, mouse, and rabbit epithelial cell pIgRs that bind IgA but not IgM. Possible explanations for this difference are discussed. All clones of T560 contain some cells that spontaneously secrete both IgG2a and IgA, but all of the IgA recoverable from the medium and from cell lysates is monomeric; it cannot be converted to secretory IgA by T560 cells.

Abstract
In polarized epithelial cells and hepatocytes, apical and basolateral plasma membrane surfaces are maintained, each displaying a distinct molecular composition. In recent years, it has become apparent that a subapical compartment, referred to as SAC, plays a prominent if not crucial role in the domain-specific sorting and targeting of proteins and lipids that are in dynamic transit between these plasma membrane domains. Although the molecular identity of the traffic-regulating devices is still obscure, the organization of SAC in distinct subcompartments and/or subdomains may well be instrumental to such functions. In this review, we will focus on the potential subcompartmentalization of the SAC in terms of regulation of membrane traffic, on how SAC relates to the endosomal system, and on how this compartment may operate in the context of other intracellular sorting organelles such as the Golgi complex, in generating and maintaining cell polarity.

Abstract
When fluid-phase markers are internalized from opposite poles of polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, they accumulate in distinct apical and basolateral early endosomes before meeting in late endosomes. Recent evidence suggests that significant mixing of apically and basolaterally internalized membrane proteins occurs in specialized apical endosomal compartments, including the common recycling endosome and the apical recycling endosome (ARE). The relationship between these latter compartments and the fluid-labeled apical early endosome is unknown at present. We report that when the apical recycling marker, membrane-bound immunoglobulin A (a ligand for the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor), and fluid-phase dextran are cointernalized from the apical poles of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, they enter a shared apical early endosome (</=2.5 min at 37 degrees C) and are then rapidly segregated from one another. The dextran remains in the large supranuclear EEA1-positive early endosomes while recycling polymeric immunoglobulin receptor-bound immunoglobulin A is delivered to a Rab11-positive subapical recycling compartment. This latter step requires an intact microtubule cytoskeleton. Receptor-bound transferrin, a marker of the basolateral recycling pathway, has limited access to the fluid-rich apical early endosome but is excluded from the subapical elements of the Rab11-positive recycling compartment. We propose that the term ARE be used to describe the subapical Rab11-positive compartment and that the ARE is distinct from both the transferrin-rich common recycling endosome and the fluid-rich apical early endosome.

Abstract
Quantitative confocal microscopic analyses of living, polarized MDCK cells demonstrate different pH profiles for apical and basolateral endocytic pathways, despite a rapid and extensive intersection between the two. Three-dimensional characterizations of ligand trafficking demonstrate that the apical and basolateral endocytic pathways share early, acidic compartments distributed throughout the medial regions of the cell. Polar sorting for both pathways occurs in these common endosomes as IgA is sorted from transferrin to alkaline transcytotic vesicles. While transferrin is directly recycled from the common endosomes, IgA is transported to a downstream apical compartment that is nearly neutral in pH. By several criteria this compartment appears to be equivalent to the previously described apical recycling endosome. The functional significance of the abrupt increase in lumenal pH that accompanies IgA sorting is not clear, as disrupting endosome acidification has no effect on polar sorting. These studies provide the first detailed characterizations of endosome acidification in intact polarized cells and clarify the relationship between the apical and basolateral endocytic itineraries of polarized MDCK cells. The extensive mixing of apical and basolateral pathways underscores the importance of endocytic sorting in maintaining the polarity of the plasma membrane of MDCK cells.

Abstract
We show that in the rat basophilic leukemia cell line RBL, the physiological stimulation of the IgE receptor or direct activation of PKC leads to the missorting of proteins to the plasma membrane, diverting them from their normal intracellular destination. This is demonstrated for two classes of proteins that are normally targeted to the secretory lysosomes via completely different mechanisms, i.e. proteoglycans and the aspartic protease cathepsin D. In the latter case, normal processing of the enzyme is also affected, leading to secretion of the immature form of cathepsin. The present study shows how completely different sorting mechanisms, such as those for delivering proteoglycans and cathepsin D to secretory lysosomes, might share common regulatory signals and are similarly affected when the levels of these signals are perturbed. Finally, protein kinase C appears to be a major player in the signal transduction pathways, leading to proteoglycan and cathepsin D missorting.

Abstract
Previous studies of fibroblasts have demonstrated that recycling of endocytic receptors occurs through a default mechanism of membrane-volume sorting. Epithelial cells require an additional level of polar membrane sorting, but there are conflicting models of polar sorting, some suggesting that it occurs in early endosomes, others suggesting it occurs in a specialized apical recycling endosome (ARE). The relationship between endocytic sorting to the lysosomal, recycling and transcytotic pathways in polarized cells was addressed by characterizing the endocytic itineraries of LDL, transferrin (Tf) and IgA, respectively, in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Quantitative analyses of 3-dimensional images of living and fixed polarized cells demonstrate that endocytic sorting occurs sequentially. Initially internalized into lateral sorting endosomes, Tf and IgA are jointly sorted from LDL into apical and medical recycling endosomes, in a manner consistent with default sorting of membrane from volume. While Tf is recycled to the basolateral membrane from recycling endosomes, IgA is sorted to the ARE prior to apical delivery. Quantifications of the efficiency of sorting of IgA from Tf between the recycling endosomes and the ARE match biochemical measurements of transepithelial protein transport, indicating that all polar sorting occurs in this step. Unlike fibroblasts, rab11 is not associated with Tf recycling compartments in either polarized or glass-grown MDCK cells, rather it is associated with the compartments to which IgA is directed after sorting from Tf. These results complicate a suggested homology between the ARE and the fibroblast perinuclear recycling compartment and provide a framework that justifies previous conflicting models of polarized sorting.

Abstract
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals adhere to and are internalized by tubular renal cells and it seems that this interaction is related (positively or negatively) to the appearance of urinary calculi. The present study analyzes a series of mechanisms possibly involved in CaOx uptake by Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. CaOx crystals were added to MDCK cell cultures and endocytosis was evaluated by polarized light microscopy. This process was inhibited by an increase in intracellular calcium by means of ionomycin (100 nM; N = 6; 43.9% inhibition; P<0.001) or thapsigargin (1 microM; N = 6; 33. 3% inhibition; P<0.005) administration, and via blockade of cytoskeleton assembly by the addition of colchicine (10 microM; N = 8; 46.1% inhibition; P<0.001) or cytochalasin B (10 microM; N = 8; 34.2% inhibition; P<0.001). Furthermore, CaOx uptake was reduced when the activity of protein kinase C was inhibited by staurosporine (10 nM; N = 6; 44% inhibition; P<0.01), or that of cyclo-oxygenase by indomethacin (3 microM; N = 12; 17.2% inhibition; P<0.05); however, the uptake was unaffected by modulation of potassium channel activity with glibenclamide (3 microM; N = 6), tetraethylammonium (1 mM; N = 6) or cromakalim (1 microM; N = 6). Taken together, these data indicate that the process of CaOx internalization by renal tubular cells is similar to the endocytosis reported for other systems. These findings may be relevant to cellular phenomena involved in early stages of the formation of renal stones.

Abstract
Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells expressing constitutively active Rac1 (Rac1V12) accumulate a large central aggregate of membranes beneath the apical membrane that contains filamentous actin, Rac1V12, rab11, and the resident apical membrane protein GP-135. To examine the roles of Rac1 in membrane traffic and the formation of this aggregate, we analyzed endocytic and biosynthetic trafficking pathways in MDCK cells expressing Rac1V12 and dominant inactive Rac1 (Rac1N17). Rac1V12 expression decreased the rates of apical and basolateral endocytosis, whereas Rac1N17 expression increased those rates from both membrane domains. Basolateral-to-apical transcytosis of immunoglobulin A (IgA) (a ligand for the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor [pIgR]), apical recycling of pIgR-IgA, and accumulation of newly synthesized GP-135 at the apical plasma membrane were all decreased in cells expressing Rac1V12. These effects of Rac1V12 on trafficking pathways to the apical membrane were the result of the delivery and trapping of these proteins in the central aggregate. In contrast to abnormalities in apical trafficking events, basolateral recycling of transferrin, degradation of EGF internalized from the basolateral membrane, and delivery of newly synthesized pIgR from the Golgi to the basolateral membrane were all relatively unaffected by Rac1V12 expression. Rac1N17 expression had little or no effect on these postendocytic or biosynthetic trafficking pathways. These results show that in polarized MDCK cells activated Rac1 may regulate the rate of endocytosis from both membrane domains and that expression of dominant active Rac1V12 specifically alters postendocytic and biosynthetic membrane traffic directed to the apical, but not the basolateral, membrane.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) and the actin cytoskeleton are critical effectors of membrane trafficking in mammalian cells. In polarized epithelia, the role of these factors in endocytic events at either the apical or basolateral membrane is poorly defined. In the present study, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and other activators of PKC selectively enhanced basolateral but not apical fluid-phase endocytosis in human T84 intestinal epithelia. Stimulation of basolateral endocytosis was blocked by the conventional and novel PKC inhibitor Gö-6850, but not the conventional PKC inhibitor Gö-6976, and correlated with translocation of the novel PKC isoform PKC-epsilon. PMA treatment induced remodeling of basolateral F-actin. The actin disassembler cytochalasin D stimulated basolateral endocytosis and enhanced stimulation of endocytosis by PMA, whereas PMA-stimulated endocytosis was blocked by the F-actin stabilizers phalloidin and jasplakinolide. PMA induced membrane-to-cytosol redistribution of the F-actin cross-linking protein myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS). Cytochalasin D also induced MARCKS translocation and enhanced PMA-stimulated translocation of MARCKS. A myristoylated peptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site domain of MARCKS inhibited both MARCKS translocation and PMA stimulation of endocytosis. MARCKS translocation was inhibited by Gö-6850 but not Gö-6976. The results suggest that a novel PKC isoform, likely PKC-epsilon, stimulates basolateral endocytosis in model epithelia by a mechanism that involves F-actin and MARCKS.

Abstract
Colonic epithelial HT29-cl19A cells are polarized and secrete proteins among which alpha(1)-antitrypsin represents about 95%. Secretion occurs via a constitutive pathway, so that the rates of secretion directly reflect the rates of protein transit. In this paper we have demonstrated that: 1) in resting cells phospholipase D (PLD) is implicated in the control of apical protein transit; 2) phorbol esters stimulate apical protein transit (stimulation factor 2.2), which is correlated with a PLD-catalyzed production of phosphatidic acid (PA) (2.45-fold increase); 3) the stimulation of cholinergic receptors by carbachol results in an increase (stimulation factor 1.45) of apical protein transit which is independent of protein kinase C and PLD activities, but related to PA formation (1.7-fold increase) via phospholipase(s) C and diacylglycerol kinase activation; 4) an elevation of the cAMP level enhances apical protein transit by a PA-independent mechanism; 5) a trans-Golgi network or post-trans-Golgi network step of the transit is the target for the regulatory events. In conclusion, we have shown that PA can be produced by two independent signaling pathways; whatever the pathway followed, a close relationship between the amount of PA and the level of secretion was observed.

Abstract
DLK/MUK/ZPK is a serine/threonine kinase that belongs to the mixed-lineage (MLK) subfamily of protein kinases. As is the case for most members of this family, relatively little is known about the physiological role of DLK/MUK/ZPK in mammalian cells. Because analysis of subcellular distribution may provide important clues concerning the potential in vivo function of a protein, an antiserum was generated against the amino terminal region of murine DLK/MUK/ZPK and used for localization studies in wild-type NIH 3T3 cells. Light microscopic immunocytochemistry experiments performed with the antiserum revealed that DLK/MUK/ZPK was specifically localized in a juxtanuclear structure characteristic of the Golgi complex. In support of this, treatment of cells with brefeldin A, a drug known to disintegrate the Golgi apparatus, caused disruption of DLK/MUK/ZPK perinuclear staining. Ultrastructural observation of NIH 3T3 cells also confirmed this localization, showing that most of the immunoreactivity was detected on membranes of the stacked Golgi cisternae. Consistent with localization studies, biochemical analyses revealed that DLK/MUK/ZPK was predominantly associated with Golgi membranes on fractionation of cellular extracts and was entirely partitioned into the aqueous phase when membranes were subjected to Triton X-114 extraction. On the basis of these findings, we suggest that DLK/MUK/ZPK is a peripheral membrane protein tightly associated with the cytoplasmic face of the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
In platelets and other secretory cells, protein kinase C (PKC) plays a role in exocytosis stimulated by physiological extracellular signals, although its linkage to the secretory machinery is poorly understood. We investigated whether Rab6, a GTP-binding protein that fractionates with platelet alpha-granules, may be involved in linking these processes. We found that Rab6 contains two PKC consensus phosphorylation sites that are evolutionarily conserved. In platelets metabolically labelled with [(32)P]P(i), Rab6 phosphorylation was induced by phorbol esters or by thrombin. This phosphorylation was blocked by a specific PKC inhibitor (Ro-31-8220), but not by a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor (PD-169316). Physiological stimulation of platelets caused a PKC-dependent translocation of Rab6 from platelet particulate fractions, nearly doubling the fraction of Rab6 in the cytosol. A human Rab6 isoform (Rab6C) that is preferentially expressed in human platelet RNA was cloned and its phosphorylation by PKC was characterized. Rab6C incorporated up to 2 mol of [(32)P]P(i) per mol of active protein. Rab6C bound GDP and GTP with K(d) values of 113+/-12 and 119+/-27 nM respectively, and hydrolysed GTP at a rate of 100+/-15 micromol of GTP/mol of Rab6C per min. PKC phosphorylation of Rab6C increased the affinity for GTP by 3-fold, although it had lesser effects on GDP (1.6-fold). Phosphorylation did not alter the GTPase activity. In summary, thrombin activation of platelets leads to PKC-dependent phosphorylation of Rab6 and a translocation of Rab6 to the cytosol. We suggest that PKC phosphorylation may be an important mechanism through which Rab functional interactions in vesicle trafficking and secretion can be altered in response to an external stimulus.

Abstract
Previous studies indicate that a zinc- and phorbol ester-binding factor is necessary for in vitro endosome fusion and for the effect of Rab5 on endosome fusion. Rab5 is a small GTPase that regulates membrane fusion between early endosomes derived from either receptor-mediated endocytosis or fluid-phase endocytosis. In its GTP-bound form, Rab5 promotes endocytosis and enhances fusion among early endosomes. To determine if PMA stimulates endocytosis by activating a factor required for endosome fusion, we overexpressed wild-type Rab5, a dominant negative mutant (Rab5:S34N), and a GTPase deficient mutant (Rab5:Q79L) in BHK-21 cells. The phorbol ester PMA stimulates endocytosis and increases the number and the size of endocytic vesicles, even in the presence of Rab5:S34N. Zinc depletion with N,N,N',N'-tetrakis-(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine (TPEN) and addition of calphostin C (CPC), an inhibitor of PKC that interacts with zinc and phorbol ester binding motifs, inhibited both basal and Rab5-stimulated fluid phase endocytosis. These two reagents also inhibited the size and number of endocytic vesicles promoted by Rab5. These results suggest that PMA stimulates endocytosis by regulating the dynamics of the early endosome compartment.

Abstract
Transcytosis of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) is stimulated by binding of its ligand, dimeric IgA (dIgA). During this process, dIgA binding at the basolateral surface of the epithelial cell transmits a signal to the apical region of the cell, which in turn stimulates the transport of dIgA-pIgR complex from a postmicrotubule compartment to the apical surface. We have previously reported that the signal of stimulation was controlled by a protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) activated upon dIgA binding. We now show that this signal of stimulation moves across the cell independently of pIgR movement or microtubules and acts through the tyrosine kinase activity by releasing Ca++ from inositol trisphosphate-sensitive intracellular stores. Surprisingly we have found that a second independent signal is required to achieve dIgA-stimulated transcytosis of pIgR. This second signal depends on dIgA binding to the pIgR solely at the basolateral surface and the ability of pIgR to dimerize. This enables pIgR molecules that have bound dIgA at the basolateral surface to respond to the signal of stimulation once they reach the postmicrotubule compartment. We propose that the use of two signals may be a general mechanism by which signaling receptors maintain specificity along their signaling and trafficking pathways.

Abstract
Accumulated data indicate that endocytosis of the glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol-anchored protein urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) depends on binding of the ligand uPA:plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and subsequent interaction with internalization receptors of the low-density lipoprotein receptor family, which are internalized through clathrin-coated pits. This interaction is inhibited by receptor-associated protein (RAP). We show that uPAR with bound uPA:PAI-1 is capable of entering cells in a clathrin-independent process. First, HeLaK44A cells expressing mutant dynamin efficiently internalized uPA:PAI-1 under conditions in which transferrin endocytosis was blocked. Second, in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, which expressed human uPAR apically, the low basal rate of uPAR ligand endocytosis, which could not be inhibited by RAP, was increased by forskolin or phorbol ester (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate), which selectively up-regulate clathrin-independent endocytosis from the apical domain of epithelial cells. Third, in subconfluent nonpolarized MDCK cells, endocytosis of uPA:PAI-1 was only decreased marginally by RAP. At the ultrastructural level uPAR was largely excluded from clathrin-coated pits in these cells and localized in invaginated caveolae only in the presence of cross-linking antibodies. Interestingly, a larger fraction of uPAR in nonpolarized relative to polarized MDCK cells was insoluble in Triton X-100 at 0 degreesC, and by surface labeling with biotin we also show that internalized uPAR was mainly detergent insoluble, suggesting a correlation between association with detergent-resistant membrane microdomains and higher degree of clathrin-independent endocytosis. Furthermore, by cryoimmunogold labeling we show that 5-10% of internalized uPAR in nonpolarized, but not polarized, MDCK cells is targeted to lysosomes by a mechanism that is regulated by ligand occupancy.

Abstract
Previous observations indicate that a zinc and phorbol ester binding factor is necessary for endosome fusion. To further characterize the role of this factor in the process, we used an in vitro endosome fusion assay supplemented with recombinant Rab5 proteins. Both zinc depletion and addition of calphostin C, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, inhibited endosome fusion in the presence of active Rab5. Addition of the phorbol ester PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) reversed the inhibition of endosome fusion caused by a Rab5 negative mutant. Moreover, PMA stimulated fusion in the presence of Rab5 immunodepleted cytosol. These results suggest that the phorbol ester binding protein is acting downstream of Rab5 in endosome fusion.

Abstract
Epithelial cells express plasma-membrane polarity in order to meet functional requirements that are imposed by their interaction with different extracellular environments. Thus apical and basolateral membrane domains are distinguished that are separated by tight junctions in order to maintain the specific lipid and protein composition of each domain. In hepatic cells, the plasma membrane is also polarized, containing a sinusoidal (basolateral) and a bile canalicular (apical)-membrane domain. Relevant to the biogenesis of these domains are issues concerning sorting, (co-)transport and regulation of transport of domain-specific membrane components. In epithelial cells, specific proteins and lipids, destined for the apical membrane, are sorted in the trans-Golgi network (TGN), which involves their sequestration into cholesterol/sphingolipid 'rafts', followed by 'direct' transport to the apical membrane. In hepatic cells, a direct apical transport pathway also exists, as revealed by transport of sphingolipids from TGN to the apical membrane. This is remarkable, since in these cells numerous apical membrane proteins are 'indirectly' sorted, i.e. they are first transferred to the basolateral membrane prior to their subsequent transcytosis to the apical membrane. This raises intriguing questions as to the existence of specific lipid rafts in hepatocytes. As demonstrated in studies with HepG2 cells, it has become evident that, in hepatic cells, apical transport pathways can be regulated by protein kinase activity, which in turn modulates cell polarity. Finally, an important physiological function of hepatic cells is their involvement in intracellular transport and secretion of bile-specific lipids. Mechanisms of these transport processes, including the role of multidrug-resistant proteins in lipid translocation, will be discussed in the context of intracellular vesicular transport. Taken together, hepatic cell systems provide an important asset to studies aimed at elucidating mechanisms of sorting and trafficking of lipids (and proteins) in polarized cells in general.

Abstract
The docking/fusion of transport vesicles mediated by the soluble NSF attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) is thought to be regulated by Sec1-related proteins. Munc-18-2, a member of this family, is predominantly expressed in the epithelial cells of several tissues. We demonstrate here that Munc-18-2 colocalizes with syntaxin 3 at the apical plasma membrane of intestinal epithelium and Caco-2 cells. The presence of a physical complex of the two proteins is verified by 2-way coimmunoprecipitation. The quantity of the complex is reduced by treatment of Caco-2 cells with the alkylating agent N-ethylmaleimide which also has an inhibitory effect on the ability of Munc-18-2 to associate with syntaxin 3 in vitro. The amount of Munc-18-2 in the complex increases upon treatment of the cells with the protein kinase C activator phorbol myristate acetate, indicating a functional connection between the complex and cell signalling. Increasing the amount of Munc-18-2 bound to syntaxin 3 by overexpression results in a marked decrease in the SNARE proteins SNAP-23 and cellubrevin bound to the syntaxin. These results define a novel functional complex of Munc-18-2 and syntaxin 3 involved in the regulation of apical membrane transport.

Abstract
The plasma membrane of neurons can be divided into two domains, the soma-dendritic and the axonal. These domains perform different functions: the dendritic surface receives and processes information while the axonal surface is specialized for the rapid transmission of electrical impulses. This functional specialization is generated by sorting and anchoring mechanisms that guarantee the correct delivery and retention of specific membrane proteins. Our understanding of neuronal membrane protein sorting is primarily based on studies of protein overexpression in cultured neurons. These studies revealed that newly synthesized membrane proteins are segregated in the Golgi apparatus in the cell body from where they are transported to the axonal or dendritic surface. Such segregation presumably depends on sorting motifs in the proteins' primary structure. They appear to be located in the cytoplasmic tail for dendritic proteins and in the transmembrane-ectodomain for axonal proteins. Recent studies on neurotransmitter segregation suggest that anchoring in the correct subdomain of the plasma membrane also requires cytoplasmic tail information for binding to the cytoskeleton either directly or by linker proteins. Both mechanisms, sorting and retention, gradually mature during neural development. Young neurons appear to develop initial polarity by other mechanisms, presumably analogous to the mechanisms used by migrating cells.
