Abstract
Gastric acid secretion plays a pivotal role in the physiology of gastrointestinal tract. The functioning of the system encompasses a P2 ATPase pump (which shuttles electroneutral function at low pH) along with different voltage sensitive/neutral ion channels, cytosolic proteins, acid sensor receptors as well hormonal regulators. The increased acid secretion is a pathological marker of several diseases like peptic ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), chronic gastritis, and the bug Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has also a critical role, which altogether affects the patient's quality of life. This review comprehensively describes about the nature of potassium ion channel and its mediators, the different clinical strategy to control acid rebound, and some basic experimental observations performed to study the interplay of ion channels, pumps, as well as mediators during acid secretion. Different aspects of regulation of gastric acid secretion have been focused either in terms of physiology of secretion or molecular interactions. The importance of H pylori infection and its treatment have also been discussed. Furthermore, the relevance of calcium signaling during acid secretion has been reviewed. The entire theme will make anyone to understand in details about the gastric secretion machinery in general.

Abstract
Parietal cells are responsible for gastric acid secretion, which aids in the digestion of food, absorption of minerals, and control of harmful bacteria. However, a fine balance of activators and inhibitors of parietal cell-mediated acid secretion is required to ensure proper digestion of food, while preventing damage to the gastric and duodenal mucosa. As a result, parietal cell secretion is highly regulated through numerous mechanisms including the vagus nerve, gastrin, histamine, ghrelin, somatostatin, glucagon-like peptide 1, and other agonists and antagonists. The tight regulation of parietal cells ensures the proper secretion of HCl. The H+-K+-ATPase enzyme expressed in parietal cells regulates the exchange of cytoplasmic H+ for extracellular K+. The H+ secreted into the gastric lumen by the H+-K+-ATPase combines with luminal Cl- to form gastric acid, HCl. Inhibition of the H+-K+-ATPase is the most efficacious method of preventing harmful gastric acid secretion. Proton pump inhibitors and potassium competitive acid blockers are widely used therapeutically to inhibit acid secretion. Stimulated delivery of the H+-K+-ATPase to the parietal cell apical surface requires the fusion of intracellular tubulovesicles with the overlying secretory canaliculus, a process that represents the most prominent example of apical membrane recycling. In addition to their unique ability to secrete gastric acid, parietal cells also play an important role in gastric mucosal homeostasis through the secretion of multiple growth factor molecules. The gastric parietal cell therefore plays multiple roles in gastric secretion and protection as well as coordination of physiological repair.

Abstract
The stomach has unique embryologic and anatomic properties, making the study of the parietal cell technically challenging. Numerous individuals have devoted decades of research to unraveling the pathophysiological basis of this cell type. Here, we perform a scoping review of novel in vitro and in vivo methodology pertaining to the parietal cell. First, we evaluate early in vitro methods of parietal cell analysis. This section focuses on three major techniques: gastric gland isolation, parietal cell isolation, and parietal cell culture. We also discuss parietal cell physiology and pathophysiology. Second, we discuss more contemporary efforts involving confocal microscopy and gastric organoids, a new technique that holds much promise in unveiling the temporal-spatial dynamics of the cell. Finally, we will discuss findings from our laboratory where we identified an active gastric vacuolar H+-ATPase as a putative mechanism for refractory GERD. Overall, this review aims to highlight the major milestones in understanding an elusive yet important cell. Though in no way comprehensive, we hope to provide a birds-eye view to the study of this unique cell type in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
Ion channels facilitate diffusion of ions across cell membranes for such diverse purposes as neuronal signaling, muscular contraction, and fluid homeostasis. Solute transporters often utilize ionic gradients to move aqueous solutes up their concentration gradient, also fulfilling a wide variety of tasks. Recently, an increasing number of ion channel-transporter ('chansporter') complexes have been discovered. Chansporter complex formation may overcome what could otherwise be considerable spatial barriers to rapid signal integration and feedback between channels and transporters, the ions and other substrates they transport, and environmental factors to which they must respond. Here, current knowledge in this field is summarized, covering both heterologous expression structure/function findings and potential mechanisms by which chansporter complexes fulfill contrasting roles in cell signaling in vivo.

Abstract
The present studies were designed to examine the effects of ClC-2 ablation on cellular morphology, parietal cell abundance, H/K ATPase expression, parietal cell ultrastructure and acid secretion using WT and ClC-2-/- mouse stomachs. Cellular histology, morphology and proteins were examined using imaging techniques, electron microscopy and western blot. The effect of histamine on the pH of gastric contents was measured. Acid secretion was also measured using methods and secretagogues previously established to give maximal acid secretion and morphological change. Compared to WT, ClC-2-/- gastric mucosal histological organization appeared disrupted, including dilation of gastric glands, shortening of the gastric gland region and disorganization of all cell layers. Parietal cell numbers and H/K ATPase expression were significantly reduced by 34% (P<0.05) and 53% (P<0.001) respectively and cytoplasmic tubulovesicles appeared markedly reduced on electron microscopic evaluation without evidence of canalicular expansion. In WT parietal cells, ClC-2 was apparent in a similar cellular location as the H/K ATPase by immunofluorescence and appeared associated with tubulovesicles by immunogold electron microscopy. Histamine-stimulated [H+] of the gastric contents was significantly (P<0.025) lower by 9.4 fold (89%) in the ClC-2-/- mouse compared to WT. Histamine/carbachol stimulated gastric acid secretion was significantly reduced (range 84–95%, P<0.005) in ClC-2-/- compared to WT, while pepsinogen secretion was unaffected. Genetic ablation of ClC-2 resulted in reduced gastric gland region, reduced parietal cell number, reduced H/K ATPase, reduced tubulovesicles and reduced stimulated acid secretion.

Abstract
Gastric acid secretion is mediated by the K+-dependent proton pump (H+,K+-ATPase), which requires a continuous supply of K+ at the luminal side of the apical membrane. Several K+ channels are implicated in gastric acid secretion. However, the identity of the K+ channel(s) responsible for apical K+ supply is still elusive. Our previous studies have shown the translocation of KCNJ15 from cytoplasmic vesicles to the apical membrane on stimulation, indicating its involvement in gastric acid secretion. In this study, the stimulation associated trafficking of KCNJ15 was observed in a more native context with a live cell imaging system. KCNJ15 molecules in resting live cells were scattered in cytoplasm but exhibited apical localization after stimulation. Furthermore, knocking down KCNJ15 expression with a short hairpin RNA adenoviral construct abolished histamine-stimulated acid secretion in rabbit primary parietal cells. Moreover, KCNJ15, like H+,K+-ATPase, was detected in all of the parietal cells by immunofluorescence staining, whereas only about half of the parietal cells were positive for KCNQ1 under the same condition. Consistently, the endogenous protein levels of KCNJ15, analyzed by Western blotting, were higher than those of KCNQ1 in the gastric mucosa of human, mouse, and rabbit. These results provide evidence for a major role of KCNJ15 in apical K+ supply during stimulated acid secretion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this study is to discuss the clinical, endoscopic and histologic features, pathogenesis and disease mechanisms of proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-responsive oesophageal eosinophilia (PPI-REE), and to highlight similarities and differences with eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE). RECENT FINDINGS PPI-REE is a condition in which patients have clinical and histologic findings similar to EoE, but achieve complete remission with PPI treatment. More than one-third of patients who have oesophageal symptoms associated with oesophageal eosinophilia respond to PPI treatment. Emerging data elucidating the pathogenesis of PPI-REE have shown that Th2-related inflammatory factors such as interleukin (IL)-13, IL-5, eotaxin-3 and major basic protein (MBP) are elevated in PPI-REE, similar to EoE. PPI-REE also shares a genetic expression signature with EoE that reverses with PPI treatment. Mechanisms proposed to explain the PPI response include an acid-independent, anti-inflammatory action of PPIs and PPI-induced restoration of oesophageal barrier function. SUMMARY Multiple features of PPI-REE overlap extensively with EoE. This raises the question of whether PPI-REE is merely a subtype of EoE rather than an independent condition. This similarity may have future implications for algorithms informing evaluation and treatment of oesophageal eosinophilia.

Transcriptome analysis of proton pump inhibitor-responsive esophageal eosinophilia reveals proton pump inhibitor-reversible allergic inflammation. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2014; 135:187-97.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esophageal eosinophilia can be proton pump inhibitor (PPI) resistant or responsive, representing 2 entities known as eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and PPI-responsive esophageal eosinophilia (PPI-REE), respectively. Although they present with similar clinical features, EoE is accepted to be an antigen-driven, TH2-associated allergic disorder, whereas the cause of PPI-REE remains a mystery. OBJECTIVE In this study, our aim was to investigate the pathogenesis of PPI-REE by using a recently described EoE diagnostic panel (EDP) composed of a set of 94 esophageal transcripts and to determine whether PPI therapy reverses any esophageal transcriptional abnormalities. METHODS We evaluated the EDP signature in biopsy samples obtained from adult and pediatric patients with PPI-REE from 4 institutions and compared the pre- and post-PPI therapy expression profiles of these subjects with those of patients with active EoE. RESULTS The EDP differentiated patients with EoE from control subjects with 100% accuracy among the 4 clinical sites. Bioinformatics analysis revealed largely overlapping transcriptomes between patients with PPI-REE and those with EoE, including the genes for eosinophil chemotaxis (eotaxin 3, CCL26), barrier molecules (desmoglein 1, DSG1), tissue remodeling (periostin, POSTN), and mast cells (carboxypeptidase A, CPA3). PPI monotherapy alone almost completely reversed the allergic inflammatory transcriptome of patients with PPI-REE. Furthermore, we identified a set of candidate genes to differentiate patients with EoE from those with PPI-REE before treatment. CONCLUSION These findings provide definitive evidence that PPI-REE is a disease entity with significant molecular overlap with EoE, suggesting that many patients with PPI-REE represent a continuum of the same pathogenic allergic mechanisms that underlie EoE and thus might constitute a subphenotype of patients with EoE. The ability of PPI therapy to nearly entirely reverse gene expression associated with PPI-REE, particularly that associated with classic features of allergic inflammation, provides new insight into potential disease etiology and management strategies for patients with significant esophageal eosinophilia.

Abstract
Potassium ions are required for gastric acid secretion. Several potassium channels have been implicated in providing K(+) at the apical membrane of parietal cells. In examining the mRNA expression levels between gastric mucosa and liver tissue, KCNJ15 stood out as the most highly specific K(+) channel in the gastric mucosa. Western blot analysis confirmed that KCNJ15 is abundant in the stomach. Immunofluorescence staining of isolated gastric glands indicated that KCNJ15 was expressed in parietal cells and chief cells, but not in mucous neck cells. In resting parietal cells, KCNJ15 was mainly found in puncta throughout the cytoplasm but was distinct from H(+)-K(+)-ATPase. Upon stimulation, KCNJ15 and H(+)-K(+)-ATPase become colocalized on the apical membranes, as suggested by immunofluorescence staining. Western blot analysis of the resting and the stimulated membrane fractions confirmed this observation. From nonsecreting preparations, KCNJ15-containing vesicles sedimented after a 4-h centrifugation at 100,000 g, but not after a 30-min spin, which did sediment most of the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles. Most of the KCNJ15 containing small vesicle population was depleted upon stimulation of parietal cells, as indicated by the fact that the KCNJ15 signal was shifted to a large membrane fraction that sedimented at 4,000 g. Our results demonstrate that, in nonsecreting parietal cells, KCNJ15 is stored in vesicles distinct from the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase-enriched tubulovesicles. Furthermore, upon stimulation, KCNJ15 and H(+)-K(+)-ATPase both translocate to the apical membrane for active acid secretion. Thus KCNJ15 can be added to the family of apical K(+) channels in gastric parietal cells.

Abstract
Kir4.1 channels were found to colocalize with the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase throughout the parietal cell (PC) acid secretory cycle. This study was undertaken to explore their functional role. Acid secretory rates, electrophysiological parameters, PC ultrastructure, and gene and protein expression were determined in gastric mucosae of 7-8-day-old Kir4.1-deficient mice and WT littermates. Kir4.1(-/-) mucosa secreted significantly more acid and initiated secretion significantly faster than WT mucosa. No change in PC number but a relative up-regulation of H(+)/K(+)-ATPase gene and protein expression (but not of other PC ion transporters) was observed. Electron microscopy revealed fully fused canalicular membranes and a lack of tubulovesicles in resting state Kir4.1(-/-) PCs, suggesting that Kir4.1 ablation may also interfere with tubulovesicle endocytosis. The role of this inward rectifier in the PC apical membrane may therefore be to balance between K(+) loss via KCNQ1/KCNE2 and K(+) reabsorption by the slow turnover of the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase, with consequences for K(+) reabsorption, inhibition of acid secretion, and membrane recycling. Our results demonstrate that Kir4.1 channels are involved in the control of acid secretion and suggest that they may also affect secretory membrane recycling.

Abstract
Parietal cell (PC) proton secretion via H(+)/K(+)-ATPase requires apical K(+) recycling. A variety of K(+) channels and transporters are expressed in the PC and the molecular nature of the apical K(+) recycling channel is under debate. This study was undertaken to delineate the exact function of KCNQ1 channels in gastric acid secretion. Acid secretory rates and electrophysiological parameters were determined in gastric mucosae of 7- to 8-day-old KCNQ1(+/+), (+/-) and (-/-) mice. Parietal cell ultrastructure, abundance and gene expression levels were quantified. Glandular structure and PC abundance, and housekeeping gene expression did not differ between the KCNQ1(-/-) and (+/+) mucosae. Microvillar secretory membranes were intact, but basal acid secretion was absent and forskolin-stimulated acid output reduced by approximately 90% in KCNQ1(-/-) gastric mucosa. Application of a high K(+) concentration to the luminal membrane restored normal acid secretory rates in the KCNQ1(-/-) mucosa. The study demonstrates that the KCNQ1 channel provides K(+) to the extracellular K(+) binding site of the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase during acid secretion, and no other gastric K(+) channel can substitute for this function.

Abstract
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is found within gastric parietal cells and processed from a 45-kDa to a 19-kDa bioactive protein by an acid- and protease-dependent mechanism. To investigate whether Shh is associated with the parietal cell membrane compartment that becomes exposed to both acid and proteolytic enzymes during acid secretion, the cellular location of Shh within resting and stimulated gastric parietal cells was examined. Immunofluorescence microscopy of rabbit stomach sections showed that Shh colocalized predominantly with parietal and pit, not chief/zymogen or neck, cell markers. In resting and histamine-stimulated rabbit gastric glands Shh was expressed only in parietal cells close to H+-K+-ATPase-containing tubulovesicular and secretory membranes with some colocalizing with gamma-actin at the basolateral membrane. Gastric gland microsomal membranes were prepared by differential and sucrose gradient centrifugation and immunoisolation with an anti-H+-K+-ATPase-alpha subunit antibody. The 45- and 19-kDa Shh proteins were detected by immunoblot in immunopurified H+-K+-ATPase-containing membranes from resting and stimulated gastric glands, respectively. Incubating glands with a high KCl concentration removed Shh from the membranes. Histamine stimulated 19-kDa Shh secretion from gastric glands into the medium. In human gastric cancer 23132/87 cells cultured on permeable membranes, histamine increased 19-kDa Shh secretion into both apical and basolateral media. These findings show that Shh is a peripheral protein associated with resting and stimulated H+-K+-ATPase-expressing membranes. In addition, Shh appears to be expressed at or close to the basolateral membrane of parietal cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS K(+) recycling at the apical membrane of gastric parietal cells is a prerequisite for gastric acid secretion. Two K(+) channels are currently being considered for this function, namely KCNQ1 and inwardly rectifying K(+) channels (Kir). This study addresses the subcellular localization, trafficking, and potential functional significance of KCNQ1 and Kir4.1 channels during stimulated acid secretion. METHODS The effect of pharmacologic KCNQ1 blockade on acid secretion was studied in cultured rat and rabbit parietal cells and in isolated mouse gastric mucosa. The subcellular localization of KCNQ1 and Kir4.1 was determined in highly purified membrane fractions by Western blot analysis as well as in fixed and living cells by confocal microscopy. RESULTS In cultured parietal cells and in isolated gastric mucosa, a robust acid secretory response was seen after complete pharmacologic blockade of KCNQ1. Both biochemical and morphologic data demonstrate that Kir4.1 and KCNQ1 colocalize with the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase but do so in different tubulovesicular pools. All Kir4.1 translocates to the apical membrane after stimulation in contrast to only a fraction of KCNQ1, which mostly remains cytoplasmic. CONCLUSIONS Acid secretion can be stimulated after complete pharmacologic blockade of KCNQ1 activity, suggesting that additional apical K(+) channels regulate gastric acid secretion. The close association of Kir4.1 channels with H(+)/K(+)-ATPase in the resting and stimulated membrane suggests a possible role for Kir4.1 channels during the acid secretory cycle.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize key aspects from recent research as well as review articles on the topic of genetic mouse models, particularly in knockout mice, that have considerably contributed to understanding the pathways and mechanisms underlying gastric physiology. RECENT FINDINGS A series of knockout mouse models has proven to be invaluable in elucidating the mechanism and validating the current model of acid secretion. The interaction between the gastrin-histamine and cholecystokinin-somatostatin pathways was identified using the genetic approach as being critical in regulating acid secretion. Curiously, neither ghrelin nor ghrelin receptor knockout mice displayed the expected lean phenotype. Importantly, the study of obestatin in GPR39 knockout mice could be misleading, as zinc rather than obestatin is the endogenous ligand for GPR39. The physiological roles of ghrelin and obestatin have yet to be confirmed using knockout mouse models. SUMMARY The knockout mouse continues to serve as an excellent model to dissect the complexity of the mechanism of gastric acid secretion and to study the physiological importance of gastric ghrelin.

Abstract
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is recognized as a multifunctional protein that is involved in Cl(-) secretion, as well as acting as a regulatory protein. In order for acid secretion to take place a complex interaction of transport proteins and channels must occur at the apical pole of the parietal cell. Included in this process is at least one K(+) and Cl(-) channel, allowing for both recycling of K(+) for the H,K-ATPase, and Cl(-) secretion, necessary for the generation of concentrated HCl in the gastric gland lumen. We have previously shown that an ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K(ATP)) is expressed in parietal cells. In the present study we measured secretagogue-induced acid secretion from wild-type and DeltaF508-deficient mice in isolated gastric glands and whole stomach preparations. Secretagogue-induced acid secretion in wild-type mouse gastric glands could be significantly reduced with either glibenclamide or the specific inhibitor CFTR-inh172. In DeltaF508-deficient mice, however, histamine-induced acid secretion was significantly less than in wild-type mice. Furthermore, immunofluorescent localization of sulfonylurea 1 and 2 failed to show expression of a sulfonylurea receptor in the parietal cell, thus further implicating CFTR as the ATP-binding cassette transporter associated with the K(ATP) channels. These results demonstrate a regulatory role for the CFTR protein in normal gastric acid secretion.

Abstract
Gastric acid secretion is a complex process that requires hormonal, neuronal, or calcium-sensing receptor activation for insertion of pumps into the apical surface of the parietal cell. Activation of any or all these pathways causes the parietal cell to secrete concentrated acid with a pH at or close to 1. This acidic fluid combines with enzymes that are secreted from neighbouring chief cells and passes out of the gland up through a mucous gel layer covering the surface of the stomach producing a final intragastric pH of less than 4 during the active phase of acid secretion. Defects in either the mucosal barrier or in the regulatory mechanisms that modulate the secretory pathways will result in erosion of the barrier and ulcerations of the stomach or esophagus. The entire process of acid secretion relies on activation of the catalytic cycle of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, resulting in the secretion of acid into the parietal cell canaliculus, with K+ being the important and rate-limiting ion in this activation process. In addition to K+ as a rate limiter for acid production, Cl- secretion via an apical channel must also occur. In this review we present a discussion of the mechanics of acid secretion and a discussion of recently identified transporter proteins and receptors. Included is a discussion of some of the recent candidates for the apical K' recycling channel, as well as two recently identified apical proteins (NHE-3, PAT-1), and the newly characterized calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). We hope that this review will give additional insight into the complex process of acid secretion.
