[PMID: 30334342 DOI: 10.1111/nmo.13493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2018] [Revised: 09/04/2018] [Accepted: 09/20/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a functional disorder with chronic and relapsing clinical features. Vasopressin (VP) is a hormone responsible for water and stress homeostasis and also regulates gastrointestinal inflammation and motility. We explored whether VP was related to IBD pathogenesis and its possible pathway. METHODS Colitis was induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) in mice. The disease activity and colonic damage were evaluated through a scoring system. Locations of the V1a receptor were revealed by immunochemistry method in colon. Ussing chamber technique was performed for the electrophysiological characterization by using rat ileum. The (Arg8 )-Vasopressin (AVP)-evoked short-circuit current (Isc) was recorded in the presence of conivaptan (V1a and V2 receptor antagonist), tolvaptan (V1b receptor antagonist), tetrodotoxin (TTX), atropine, cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors (indomethacin, nonspecific COX antagonist; SC560, COX-1 antagonist; NS560, COX-2 antagonist), and a stabilizer of mast cell (cromolyn sodium), respectively. KEY RESULTS TNBS resulted in the obvious loss of body weight and tissue damages in mice. AVP significantly aggravated the TNBS-induced colitis, which was attenuated by conivaptan but not tolvaptan. V1a receptors were found immunopositive in neurons among the enteric nervous system. AVP evoked a pulsatile response in Isc. Its amplitude, frequency, and cycle duration were around 8-15 µA/cm2 , 10-11 mHz, and 1.5 minutes, respectively. Notably, the AVP-evoked change in Isc was abolished by TTX, atropine, conivaptan, indomethacin, NS560, and cromolyn sodium, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES VP-V1a receptor played the proinflammatory role in TNBS-induced colitis by promoting COX-2-dependent prostaglandin release from mucosal mast cells, which was mediated by the cholinergic pathway.

Abstract
We measured the short-circuit current (Isc) in rat ileum mucosa to identify the effect of oxytocin (OT) on mucosal secretion in small intestine. We identified a COX-2-derived pulsatile PGE2 release triggered by OT in rat ileum mucosa. OT receptors (OTR) are expressed in intestine crypt epithelial cells. Notably, OT evoked a dynamic change of [Ca2+]i in ileum crypts, which was responsible for this pulsatile release of PGE2. OT ameliorated 5-FU-, radiation- or DSS- induced injury in vivo, including the improvement of weight loss, reduced villus height and impaired survival of crypt transit-amplifying cells as well as crypt. Moreover, these protective effects of OT against intestinal injury were eliminated by coadministration of a selective inhibitor of PGE2, AH6809. Our findings strongly suggest that OT, a novel and important regulator of intestine mucosa barrier, is required for repair of intestinal epithelium after injury. Considering that OT is an FDA-approved drug, this work reveals a potential novel and safe way to combat or prevent chemo-radiotherapy induced intestine injury or to treat IBD.

Involvement of the gut chemosensory system in the regulation of colonic anion secretion. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:403919.

Abstract
The primary function of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the extraction of nutrients from the diet. Therefore, the GI tract must possess an efficient surveillance system that continuously monitors the luminal content for beneficial or harmful compounds. Recent studies have shown that specialized cells in the intestinal lining can sense changes in this content. These changes directly influence fundamental GI processes such as secretion, motility, and local blood flow via hormonal and/or neuronal pathways. Until recently, most studies examining the control of ion transport in the colon have focused on neural and hormonal regulation. However, study of the regulation of gut function by the gut chemosensory system has become increasingly important, as failure of this system causes dysfunctions in host homeostasis, as well as functional GI disorders. Furthermore, regulation of ion transport in the colon is critical for host defense and for electrolytes balance. This review discusses the role of the gut chemosensory system in epithelial transport, with a particular emphasis on the colon.

Abstract
Fluid and electrolyte releasing from secretory epithelia are elaborately regulated by orchestrated activity of ion channels. The activity of chloride channel at the apical membrane decides on the direction and the rate of secretory fluid and electrolyte. Chloride-dependent secretion is conventionally associated with intracellular increases in two second messengers, cAMP and Ca(2+), responding to luminal purinergic and basolateral adrenergic or cholinergic stimulation. While it is broadly regarded that cAMP-dependent Cl(-) secretion is regulated by cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channel (CaCC) had been veiled for quite some time. Now, Anoctamin 1 (ANO1 or TMEM16A) confers Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) currents. Ano 1 and its paralogs have been actively investigated for multiple functions underlying Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) efflux and fluid secretion in a variety of secretory epithelial cells. In this review, we will discuss recent advances in the secretory function and signaling of ANO1 in the secretory epithelia, such as airways, intestines, and salivary glands.

Abstract
Secretagogues acting at a variety of receptor types activate electrogenic K(+) secretion in guinea pig distal colon, often accompanied by Cl(-) secretion. Distinct blockers of K(Ca)1.1 (BK, Kcnma1), iberiotoxin (IbTx), and paxilline inhibited the negative short-circuit current (I(sc)) associated with K(+) secretion. Mucosal addition of IbTx inhibited epinephrine-activated I(sc) ((epi)I(sc)) and transepithelial conductance ((epi)G(t)) consistent with K(+) secretion occurring via apical membrane K(Ca)1.1. The concentration dependence of IbTx inhibition of (epi)I(sc) yielded an IC(50) of 193 nM, with a maximal inhibition of 51%. Similarly, IbTx inhibited (epi)G(t) with an IC(50) of 220 nM and maximal inhibition of 48%. Mucosally added paxilline (10 μM) inhibited (epi)I(sc) and (epi)G(t) by ∼50%. IbTx and paxilline also inhibited I(sc) activated by mucosal ATP, supporting apical K(Ca)1.1 as a requirement for this K(+) secretagogue. Responses to IbTx and paxilline indicated that a component of K(+) secretion occurred during activation of Cl(-) secretion by prostaglandin-E(2) and cholinergic stimulation. Analysis of K(Ca)1.1α mRNA expression in distal colonic epithelial cells indicated the presence of the ZERO splice variant and three splice variants for the COOH terminus. The presence of the regulatory β-subunits K(Ca)β1 and K(Ca)β4 also was demonstrated. Immunolocalization supported the presence of K(Ca)1.1α in apical and basolateral membranes of surface and crypt cells. Together these results support a cellular mechanism for electrogenic K(+) secretion involving apical membrane K(Ca)1.1 during activation by several secretagogue types, but the observed K(+) secretion likely required the activity of additional K(+) channel types in the apical membrane.

Abstract
The field of toxicology adopted the threshold dose response in the early decades of the 20th century. The model was rapidly incorporated into governmental regulatory assessment procedures and became a central feature of chemical evaluation and assessment. The toxicological community never validated the capacity of this model to make accurate predictions throughout the remainder of the 20th century. A series of recent investigations have demonstrated that the threshold and linear dose response model failed to make accurate predictions in the low dose zone. Such findings demonstrate a profound failure by the toxicology community on the central pillar of its discipline and one with profound public health, medical and economic implications. Ironically, the hormetic dose response, which was rejected by the toxicology community during the early decades of the 20th century, accurately predicted responses in the low dose zone in the same three large-scale validation assessments. Within the past two decades hormetic dose responses have been frequently reported in the experimental biogerontology literature, associated with endpoints associated enhancing healthy aging and longevity. The low dose stimulatory response of the hormetic dose response model represents the quantification of enhanced biological performance in the experimental facilitation of aging quality via multiple endpoints and mechanisms and in the extension of lifespan in such animal models research.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY Lubricating gut pill (LGP), a traditional Chinese formula, had been conformed to improve the loperamide-induced rat constipation by stimulation of Cl(-) secretion, but its mechanism has not been fully explored. Thus, the purpose of this study was to identify the action sites of LGP-stimulated Cl(-) secretion across rat distal colonic mucosa. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rat distal colonic mucosa was mounted in Ussing chambers and short circuit current (I(SC)), apical Cl(-) current and basolateral K(+) current were recorded. Intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) content and protein kinase A (PKA) activity were determined with ELISA kit and the non-radioactive PepTag test, respectively. RESULTS LGP at 800μg/ml elicited a sustained increase in Cl(-) secretory response, which was inhibited by CFTR(inh)172, a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) inhibitor. Permeabilizing apical membrane with nystatin revealed that LGP-stimulated basolateral K(+) current was significantly inhibited by KCNQ1 K(+) channel inhibitor chromanol 293B. LGP-stimulated I(SC) was markedly reduced by pretreatment with cis-N-[2-phenylcyclopentyl]-azacyclotridec-1-en-2amine (MDL-12,330A) and N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-89), but not with inhibitors of Ca(2+)-dependent signaling pathway. Treatment of tissue with LGP resulted in an increase in intracellular cAMP level and the activation in protein kinase A. The E-prostanoid(4) (EP)(4) receptor antagonist L-161,982 completely eliminated LGP-induced response. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that LGP enhances Cl(-) and fluid secretion via prostanoid receptor signaling and also cAMP and protein kinase A pathway, subsequently triggering the activation of apical Cl(-) channels mostly CFTR and basolateral cAMP-dependent K(+) channel.

Abstract
Propionate, a fermented product in the lumen of the large intestine, is a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) known to have a variety of localized physiological and pathophysiological functions (e.g., luminal fluid secretion and anti-inflammatory response). In the present study, we investigated propionate-induced transepithelial ion transport and the expression of SCFA receptor, free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2, otherwise known as GPR43) in the guinea pig distal colon utilizing the Ussing chamber technique and immunohistochemistry. The addition of propionate to the luminal bathing solution concentration-dependently induced transient K(+) and Cl(-) and/or bicarbonate secretion within approximately 30 s and long-lasting Cl(-) secretion for approximately 60 min was first identified in the present study. The transient anion secretion was tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive and mediated through the cholinergic (both nicotinic and muscarinic) neural pathway, but the transient K(+) and long-lasting Cl(-) secretion were due to TTX-insensitive mechanism. Immunohistochemistry studies showed that some chromogranin A-immunoreactive enteroendocrine cells were also immunoreactive for FFA2 but not colocalized with 5-hydroxytryptamine. In conclusion, the propionate-induced secretion consisted of the neural and non-neural three-phase secretory manner possibly mediated by the stimulation of FFA2 expressed by enteroendocrine cells.

Abstract
Adrenergic stimulation of isolated guinea pig distal colonic mucosa produced transient Cl(-) and sustained K(+) secretion. Transient short-circuit current (I(sc)) depended on beta(2)-adrenergic receptors (beta(2)-AdrR), and sustained I(sc) relies on a beta(1)-AdrR/beta(2)-AdrR complex. Epinephrine (epi) increased cAMP content with a biphasic time course similar to changes in epi-activated I(sc) ((epi)I(sc)). Inhibition of transmembrane adenylyl cyclases (tmACs) reduced peak (epi)I(sc) and cAMP to near zero without decreasing sustained (epi)I(sc), consistent with cAMP from tmAC signaling for only Cl(-) secretion. Inhibition of soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) reduced sustained (epi)I(sc) and cAMP to near zero without decreasing peak (epi)I(sc) or cAMP, consistent with cAMP from sAC signaling for K(+) secretion. Sensitivity to phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors and peptide YY (PYY) stimulation further supported separate signaling for the two components. PDE3 or PDE4 inhibitors enhanced peak (epi)I(sc) but not sustained (epi)I(sc), consistent with these PDEs as part of the beta(2)-AdrR signaling domain. PYY suppressed peak (epi)I(sc) in a pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive manner, supporting Galpha(i)-dependent inhibition of tmACs producing cAMP for Cl(-) secretion. Since PYY or PTx did not alter sustained (epi)I(sc), signaling for K(+) secretion occurred via a Galpha(i)-independent mechanism. Presence of multiple sAC variants in colonic epithelial cells was supported by domain-specific antibodies. Responses to specific activators and inhibitors suggested that protein kinase A was not involved in activating peak or sustained components of (epi)I(sc), but the cAMP-dependent guanine nucleotide exchange factor, Epac, may contribute. Thus beta-adrenergic activation of electrogenic Cl(-) and K(+) secretion, respectively, required tmAC- and sAC-dependent signaling pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. This study investigates the effects of PGF(2alpha) on electrophysiological parameters in isolated human colonic mucosa. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Ion transport was measured as changes in short-circuit current across human colonic epithelia mounted in Ussing chambers. Colonic crypts were isolated by calcium chelation and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) was measured by ELISA. KEY RESULTS PGF(2alpha) stimulated chloride secretion in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC(50) of 130 nM. The PGF(2alpha) induced increase in chloride secretion was inhibited by AL8810 (10 microM), a specific PGF(2alpha) receptor antagonist. In addition, PGF(2alpha) (1 microM) significantly increased levels of cAMP in isolated colonic crypts. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS PGF(2alpha) stimulated chloride secretion in samples of human colon in vitro through a previously unrecognizd cAMP-mediated mechanism. These findings have implications for inflammatory states.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this study was to identify the actions of H(2)S on ion transport across rat distal colon. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Changes in short-circuit current (Isc) induced by the H(2)S-donor, NaHS, were measured in Ussing chambers. Cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was evaluated using fura-2. KEY RESULTS NaHS concentration-dependently induced a change in Isc, that was only partially inhibited by the neurotoxin, tetrodotoxin. Lower concentrations (< or =10(-3) mol.L(-1)) of NaHS induced a monophasic increase in Isc, whereas higher concentrations induced an additional, secondary fall of Isc, before a third phase when Isc rose again. Blockers of H(2)S-producing enzymes (expression demonstrated immunohistochemically) decreased basal Isc, suggesting that endogenous production of H(2)S contributes to spontaneous anion secretion. The positive Isc phases induced by NaHS were due to Cl(-) secretion as shown by anion substitution and transport inhibitor experiments, whereas the transient negative Isc induced by higher concentrations of the H(2)S-donor was inhibited by mucosal tetrapentylammonium suggesting a transient K(+) secretion. When applied from the serosal side, glibenclamide, an inhibitor of ATP-sensitive K(+) channels, and tetrapentylammonium, a blocker of Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channels, suppressed NaHS-induced Cl(-) secretion suggesting different types of K(+) channels are stimulated by the H(2)S-donor. NaHS-induced increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was confirmed in isolated, fura-2-loaded colonic crypts. This response was not dependent on extracellular Ca(2+), but was inhibited by blockers of intracellular Ca(2+) channels present on Ca(2+) storage organelles. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS H(2)S induces colonic ion secretion by stimulation of apical as well as basolateral epithelial K(+) channels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this study was to identify the actions of H(2)S on ion transport across rat distal colon. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Changes in short-circuit current (Isc) induced by the H(2)S-donor, NaHS, were measured in Ussing chambers. Cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was evaluated using fura-2. KEY RESULTS NaHS concentration-dependently induced a change in Isc, that was only partially inhibited by the neurotoxin, tetrodotoxin. Lower concentrations (< or =10(-3) mol.L(-1)) of NaHS induced a monophasic increase in Isc, whereas higher concentrations induced an additional, secondary fall of Isc, before a third phase when Isc rose again. Blockers of H(2)S-producing enzymes (expression demonstrated immunohistochemically) decreased basal Isc, suggesting that endogenous production of H(2)S contributes to spontaneous anion secretion. The positive Isc phases induced by NaHS were due to Cl(-) secretion as shown by anion substitution and transport inhibitor experiments, whereas the transient negative Isc induced by higher concentrations of the H(2)S-donor was inhibited by mucosal tetrapentylammonium suggesting a transient K(+) secretion. When applied from the serosal side, glibenclamide, an inhibitor of ATP-sensitive K(+) channels, and tetrapentylammonium, a blocker of Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channels, suppressed NaHS-induced Cl(-) secretion suggesting different types of K(+) channels are stimulated by the H(2)S-donor. NaHS-induced increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was confirmed in isolated, fura-2-loaded colonic crypts. This response was not dependent on extracellular Ca(2+), but was inhibited by blockers of intracellular Ca(2+) channels present on Ca(2+) storage organelles. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS H(2)S induces colonic ion secretion by stimulation of apical as well as basolateral epithelial K(+) channels.

Abstract
Adrenergic stimulation of electrogenic K+ secretion in isolated mucosa from guinea pig distal colon required activation of two beta-adrenergic receptor subtypes (beta-AdrR). Addition of epinephrine (epi) or norepinephrine (norepi) to the bathing solution of mucosae in Ussing chambers increased short-circuit current (Isc) and transepithelial conductance (Gt), consistent with this cation secretion. A beta-adrenergic classification was supported by propranolol antagonism of this secretory response and the lack of effect by the alpha-AdrR antagonists BE2254 (alpha1-AdrR) and yohimbine (alpha2-AdrR). Subtype-selective antagonists CGP20712A (beta1-AdrR), ICI-118551 (beta2-AdrR), and SR59320A (beta3-AdrR) were relatively ineffective at inhibiting the epi-stimulated Isc response. In combination, CGP20712A and ICI-118551 inhibited the response, which supported a synergistic action by beta1-AdrR and beta2-AdrR. Expression of mRNA for both beta1-AdrR and beta2-AdrR was indicated by RT-PCR of RNA from colonic epithelial cells. Protein expression was indicated by immunoblot showing bands at molecular weights consistent with monomers and oligomers. Immunoreactivity (ir) for beta1-AdrR and beta2-AdrR was prominent in basolateral membranes of columnar epithelial cells in the crypts of Lieberkühn as well as intercrypt surface epithelium. Cells in the pericryptal sheath also had beta1-AdrR(ir) but did not have discernable beta2-AdrR(ir). The adrenergic sensitivity of K+ secretion measured by Isc and Gt was relatively low as indicated by EC(50)s of 41 +/- 7 nM for epi and 50 +/- 14 nM for norepi. Adrenergic activation of electrogenic K+ secretion required the involvement of both beta1-AdrR and beta2-AdrR, occurring with an agonist sensitivity reduced compared with reported values for either receptor subtype.

Abstract
Adrenergic activation of electrogenic K+ secretion in isolated mucosa from guinea pig distal colon was desensitized by peptide-YY (PYY). Addition of PYY or neuropeptide-Y (NPY) to the bathing solution of mucosae in Ussing chambers suppressed the short-circuit current (Isc) corresponding to electrogenic Cl- secretion, whether stimulated by epinephrine (epi), prostaglandin-E2 (PGE2), or carbachol (CCh). Neither peptide markedly inhibited the large transient component of synergistic secretion (PGE2 + CCh). Sustained Cl- secretory Isc was inhibited approximately 65% by PYY or NPY, with IC50s of 4.1 +/- 0.9 nM and 9.4 +/- 3.8 nM, respectively. This inhibition was eliminated by BIIE0246, an antagonist of the Y2-neuropeptide receptor (Y2-NpR), but not by Y1-NpR antagonist BVD10. Adrenergic sensitivity for activation of K+ secretion in the presence of Y2-NpR blockade by BIIE0246 was (EC50s) 2.9 +/- 1.2 nM for epi and 13.3 +/- 1.0 nM for norepinephrine, approximately fourfold greater than in the presence of PYY. Expression of mRNA for both Y1-NpR and Y2-NpR was indicated by RT-PCR of RNA from colonic mucosa, and protein expression was indicated by immunoblot. Immunoreactivity (ir) for Y1-NpR and Y2-NpR was distinct in basolateral membranes of columnar epithelial cells in the crypts of Lieberkühn as well as intercrypt surface epithelium. Adrenergic nerves in proximity with crypts were detected by ir for dopamine-beta-hydroxylase, and a portion of these nerves also contained NPY(ir). BIIE0246 addition increased secretagog-activated Isc, consistent with in vitro release of either PYY or NPY. Thus PYY and NPY were able to suppress Cl- secretory capacity and desensitize the adrenergic K+ secretory response, providing a direct inhibitory counterbalance against secretory activation.

Bartolo RC, Harfoot N, Gill M, Demmers K, McLeod B, Butt AG. Electrogenic Cl(-) secretion does not occur in the ileum of the Australian common brushtail possum, Trichosurus vulpecula, due to low levels of expression of the NaK2Cl cotransporter, NKCC1. J Comp Physiol B 2009; 179:997-1010. [PMID: 19565248 DOI: 10.1007/s00360-009-0379-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2009] [Revised: 06/05/2009] [Accepted: 06/12/2009] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The colon of the brushtail possum does not have an electrogenic secretory response. Given the functional significance of electrogenic Cl(-) secretion in the intestine of eutherian mammals, we have investigated the secretory response in the small intestine of this marsupial. In the Ussing chamber cAMP-dependent secretagogues stimulated a sustained increase in ileal short-circuit current (Isc), whereas Ca(2+)-dependent secretagogues induced a transient increase. Both the responses were inhibited by mucosal addition of the anion channel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (100 mciromol l(-1)), consistent with an anion secretory response. However, the responses were not inhibited by serosal bumetanide (10 mciromol l(-1)) and were independent of bath Cl(-), indicating that the stimulated ileal Isc does not involve electrogenic Cl(-) secretion driven by the NaK2Cl cotransporter, NKCC1. Consistent with this, there were low levels of NKCC1 expression in the ileal epithelium. In particular, NKCC1 expression in the ileal crypt cells was comparable to that of the villous cells. This differs from eutherian mammals where high levels of NKCC1 expression in the ileal crypt cells are associated with their role in Cl(-) secretion. The cAMP- and Ca(2+)-dependent secretory responses were inhibited by the removal of HCO(3) (-) suggesting that these responses were due to electrogenic HCO(3) (-) secretion. We conclude that the ileum of the possum does not secrete Cl(-) due to low levels of NKCC1 expression. It does however appear to secrete HCO(3) (-). These results are further significant examples of differences in the transport function of the possum intestinal epithelium compared with eutherian mammals.

Abstract
Taste transduction molecules, such as Galpha(gust), and taste receptor families for bitter [taste receptor type 2 (T2R)], sweet, and umami, have previously been identified in taste buds and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract; however, their physiological functions in GI tissues are still unclear. Here, we investigated the physiological function and expression of T2R in human and rat large intestine using various physiological and molecular biological techniques. To study the physiological function of T2R, the effect of a bitter compound, 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil (6-PTU), on transepithelial ion transport was investigated using the Ussing chamber technique. In mucosal-submucosal preparations, mucosal 6-PTU evoked Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) secretions in a concentration-dependent manner. In rat middle colon, levels of 6-PTU-evoked anion secretion were higher than in distal colon, but there was no such difference in human large intestine. The response to 6-PTU was greatly reduced by piroxicam, but not by tetrodotoxin. Additionally, prostaglandin E(2) concentration-dependently potentiated the response to 6-PTU. Transcripts of multiple T2Rs (putative 6-PTU receptors) were detected in both human and rat colonic mucosa by RT-PCR. In conclusion, these results suggest that the T2R ligand, 6-PTU, evokes anion secretion, and such response is regulated by prostaglandins. This luminal bitter sensing mechanism may be important for host defense in the GI tract.

Abstract
Secretion of Cl(-) and K(+) in the colonic epithelium operates through a cellular mechanism requiring K(+) channels in the basolateral and apical membranes. Transepithelial current [short-circuit current (I(sc))] and conductance (G(t)) were measured for isolated distal colonic mucosa during secretory activation by epinephrine (Epi) or PGE(2) and synergistically by PGE(2) and carbachol (PGE(2) + CCh). TRAM-34 at 0.5 microM, an inhibitor of K(Ca)3.1 (IK, Kcnn4) K(+) channels (H. Wulff, M. J. Miller, W. Hänsel, S. Grissmer, M. D. Cahalan, and K. G. Chandy. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 97: 8151-8156, 2000), did not alter secretory I(sc) or G(t) in guinea pig or rat colon. The presence of K(Ca)3.1 in the mucosa was confirmed by immunoblot and immunofluorescence detection. At 100 microM, TRAM-34 inhibited I(sc) and G(t) activated by Epi ( approximately 4%), PGE(2) ( approximately 30%) and PGE(2) + CCh ( approximately 60%). The IC(50) of 4.0 microM implicated involvement of K(+) channels other than K(Ca)3.1. The secretory responses augmented by the K(+) channel opener 1-EBIO were inhibited only at a high concentration of TRAM-34, suggesting further that K(Ca)3.1 was not involved. Sensitivity of the synergistic response (PGE(2) + CCh) to a high concentration TRAM-34 supported a requirement for multiple K(+) conductive pathways in secretion. Clofilium (100 microM), a quaternary ammonium, inhibited Cl(-) secretory I(sc) and G(t) activated by PGE(2) ( approximately 20%) but not K(+) secretion activated by Epi. Thus Cl(-) secretion activated by physiological secretagogues occurred without apparent activity of K(Ca)3.1 channels but was dependent on other types of K(+) channels sensitive to high concentrations of TRAM-34 and/or clofilium.

Abstract
The cellular mechanism for Cl− and K+ secretion in the colonic epithelium requires K+ channels in the basolateral and apical membranes. Colonic mucosa from guinea pig and rat were fixed, sectioned, and then probed with antibodies to the K+ channel proteins KVLQT1 ( Kcnq1) and minK-related peptide 2 (MiRP2, Kcne3). Immunofluorescence labeling for Kcnq1 was most prominent in the lateral membrane of crypt cells in rat colon. The guinea pig distal colon had distinct lateral membrane immunoreactivity for Kcnq1 in crypt and surface cells. In addition, Kcne3, an auxiliary subunit for Kcnq1, was detected in the lateral membrane of crypt and surface cells in guinea pig distal colon. Transepithelial short-circuit current ( Isc) and transepithelial conductance ( Gt) were measured for colonic mucosa during secretory activation by epinephrine (EPI), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and carbachol (CCh). HMR1556 (10 μM), an inhibitor of Kcnq1 channels (Gerlach U, Brendel J, Lang HJ, Paulus EF, Weidmann K, Brüggemann A, Busch A, Suessbrich H, Bleich M, and Greger R. J Med Chem 44: 3831–3837, 2001), partially (∼50%) inhibited Cl− secretory Isc and Gt activated by PGE2 and CCh in rat colon with an IC50 of 55 nM, but in guinea pig distal colon Cl− secretory Isc and Gt were unaltered. EPI-activated K+-secretory Isc and Gt also were essentially unaltered by HMR1556 in both rat and guinea pig colon. Although immunofluorescence labeling with a Kcnq1 antibody supported the basolateral membrane presence in colonic epithelium of the guinea pig as well as the rat, the Kcnq1 K+ channel is not an essential component for producing Cl− secretion. Other K+ channels present in the basolateral membrane presumably must also contribute directly to the K+ conductance necessary for K+ exit during activation of Cl− secretion in the colonic mucosa.

Abstract
Cell-attached recordings revealed Cl(-) channel activity in basolateral membrane of guinea pig distal colonic crypts isolated from basement membrane. Outwardly rectified currents ((gp)Cl(or)) were apparent with a single-channel conductance (gamma) of 29 pS at resting membrane electrical potential; another outward rectifier with gamma of 24 pS was also observed ( approximately 25% of (gp)Cl(or)). At a holding potential of -80 mV gamma was 18 pS for both (gp)Cl(or) currents, and at +80 mV gamma was 67 and 40 pS, respectively. Identity as Cl(-) channels was confirmed in excised patches by changing bath ion composition. From reversal potentials, relative permeability of K(+) over Cl(-) (P(K)/P(Cl)) was 0.07 +/- 0.03, with relative permeability of Na(+) over Cl(-) (P(Na)/P(Cl)) = 0.08 +/- 0.04. A second type of Cl(-) channel was seen with linear current-voltage (I-V) relations ((gp)Cl(L)), having subtypes with gamma of 21, 13, and 8 pS. Epinephrine or forskolin increased the number of open (gp)Cl(or) and (gp)Cl(L). Open probabilities (P(o)) of (gp)Cl(or), (gp)Cl(L21), and (gp)Cl(L13) were voltage dependent in cell-attached patches, higher at more positive potentials. Kinetics of (gp)Cl(or) were more rapid with epinephrine activation than with forskolin activation. Epinephrine increased P(o) at the resting membrane potential for (gp)Cl(L13). Secretagogue activation of these Cl(-) channels may contribute to stimulation of electrogenic K(+) secretion across colonic epithelium by increasing basolateral membrane Cl(-) conductance that permits Cl(-) exit after uptake via Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransport.

Abstract
Interaction between substance P (SP) and PGE(2) on Cl(-) secretion in the guinea pig distal colonic epithelia was investigated. A short-circuit current (I(sc)) was measured as an index of ion transport. Mucosa preparations deprived of muscle and submucosa of distal colon were mounted in the Ussing flux chamber and treated with TTX and piroxicam to remove the influences of neuronal activity and endogenous PG synthesis, respectively. Although SP (10(-7) M) itself evoked little increase in I(sc), exogenous PGE(2) concentration dependently enhanced the response of SP. The effect of PGE(2) on the SP-evoked response was mimicked by forskolin and 8-bromoadenosine cAMP. Depletion of Ca2+ from the bathing solution reduced the PGE(2)-dependent response of SP. Effects of PGE(2), SP, and SP in the presence of PGE(2) on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) in isolated crypt cells were measured by the confocal microscope fluorescence imaging system. SP, but not PGE(2), temporally evoked an increase in [Ca2+](i) but declined to the baseline within 3 min. A return of the SP-evoked increase in [Ca2+](i) was slower in the presence of PGE(2) than SP alone. These results suggest that PGE(2) synergistically enhances SP-evoked Cl(-) secretion via an interaction between the intracellular cAMP and [Ca2+](i) in the epithelial cells. In conclusion, SP and PGE(2) could cooperatively induce massive Cl(-) secretion in guinea pig distal colon at epithelial levels.

Abstract
Cell-attached recordings revealed K(+) channel activity in basolateral membranes of guinea pig distal colonic crypts. Inwardly rectified currents were apparent with a pipette solution containing 140 mM K(+). Single-channel conductance (gamma) was 9 pS at the resting membrane potential. Another inward rectifier with gamma of 19 pS was observed occasionally. At a holding potential of -80 mV, gamma was 21 and 41 pS, respectively. Identity as K(+) channels was confirmed after patch excision by changing the bath ion composition. From reversal potentials, relative permeability of Na(+) over K(+) (P(Na)/P(K)) was 0.02 +/- 0.02, with P(Rb)/P(K) = 1.1 and P(Cl)/P(K) < 0.03. Spontaneous open probability (P(o)) of the 9-pS inward rectifier ((gp)K(ir)) was voltage independent in cell-attached patches. Both a low (P(o) = 0.09 +/- 0.01) and a moderate (P(o) = 0.41 +/- 0.01) activity mode were observed. Excision moved (gp)K(ir) to the medium activity mode; P(o) of (gp)K(ir) was independent of bath Ca(2+) activity and bath acidification. Addition of Cl(-) and K(+) secretagogues altered P(o) of (gp)K(ir). Forskolin or carbachol (10 microM) activated the small-conductance (gp)K(ir) in quiescent patches and increased P(o) in low-activity patches. K(+) secretagogues, either epinephrine (5 microM) or prostaglandin E(2) (100 nM), decreased P(o) of (gp)K(ir) in active patches. This (gp)K(ir) may be involved in electrogenic secretion of Cl(minus sign) and K(+) across the colonic epithelium, which requires a large basolateral membrane K(+) conductance during maximal Cl(-) secretion and, presumably, a lower K(+) conductance during primary electrogenic K(+) secretion.
