Abstract
Electroneutral NaCl absorption in the ileum and colon is mediated by downregulated in adenoma (DRA) (Cl⁻/HCO₃⁻ exchanger; SLC26A3) and Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger 3 (NHE3, SLC9A3). Surface expression of transport proteins undergoes basal and regulated recycling by endo- and exocytosis. Expression and activity of DRA in the plasma membrane depend on intact lipid rafts, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase), and the PDZ interaction of DRA. However, it is unknown how the PDZ interaction of DRA affects its trafficking to the cell surface. Therefore, the (re)cycling pathway of DRA was investigated in HEK cells stably expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-DRA or EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus (a mutant lacking the PDZ interaction motif). Early, late, and recycling endosomes were immunoisolated by precipitating stably transfected mCherry-hemagglutinin (HA)-Rab5a, -7a, or -11a. EGFP-DRA and EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus were equally present in early endosomes. In recycling endosomes, wild-type DRA was preferentially present, whereas, in late endosomes, DRA-ETKF-minus dominated. Correspondingly, EGFP-DRA colocalized with mCherry-HA-Rab11a in recycling endosomes, whereas EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus colocalized with mCherry-HA-Rab7a in late endosomes. Functionally, this different distribution was reflected by a shorter half-life of the mutant DRA. Transient expression of dominant-negative Rab11a(S25N) inhibited the activity (-17%, P < 0.05) and the cell surface expression of DRA (-30%, P < 0.05). Transient transfection of Rab4a or its dominant-negative mutant Rab4a(S22N) was without effect and thus excluded participation of the rapid recycling pathway. Taken together, the PDZ interaction of DRA facilitates its movement into Rab11a-positive recycling endosomes, from where it is inserted in the plasma membrane. A scenario emerges where specific PDZ adaptor proteins are present along several compartments of the endocytosis-recycling pathway.

Abstract
Bacterial translocation has been put forward as a concept to explain sepsis without an infectious focus, but it has been difficult to prove in humans. Dysfunction of the intestinal barrier, which is composed of physical, biochemical and immunological factors, is the pathophysiological prerequisite for bacterial translocation. Recent findings indicate that not only viable bacteria but also pathogen associated molecular patterns may translocate and cause sepsis. Molecular detection methods for bacteria or their components have been developed to address these new concepts, but they have not yet become widely available. Specific therapeutic interventions within the sepsis cascades and signaling pathways of the innate and specific immune system so far have not been successful. Selective oral decontamination (SOD) und selective digestive tract decontamination (SDD) are efficacious prophylactic measures against nosocomial septic complications. An increased incidence of resistant pathogens has not been encountered. The use of probiotics as prophylaxis against septic complications is controversial and has led in some studies to a worse prognosis.

Abstract
The Cl/HCO(3) exchanger downregulated in adenoma (DRA) mediates electroneutral NaCl absorption in the intestine together with the apical Na/H exchanger NHE3. Lipid rafts (LR) modulate transport activity and are involved in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)-dependent trafficking of NHE3. Although DRA and NHE3 interact via PDZ adaptor proteins of the NHERF family, the role of LR and PDZ proteins in the regulation of DRA is unknown. We examined the association of DRA with LR using the nonionic detergent Triton X-100. DRA cofractionated with LR independently of its PDZ binding motif. Furthermore, DRA interacts with PDZK1, E3KARP, and IKEPP in LR, although their localization within lipid rafts is independent of DRA. Disruption of LR integrity resulted in the disappearance of DRA from LR, in a decrease of its surface expression and in a reduction of its activity. In HEK cells the inhibition of DRA by LR disruption was entirely dependent on the presence of the PDZ interaction motif. In addition, in Caco-2/BBE cells the inhibition by LR disruption was more pronounced in wild-type DRA than in mutated DRA (DRA-ETKFminus; lacking the PDZ binding motif)-expressing cells. Inhibition of PI3-kinase decreased the activity and the cell surface expression of wild-type DRA but not of DRA-ETKFminus; the partitioning into LR was unaffected. Furthermore, simultaneous inhibition of PI3-kinase and disruption of LR did not further decrease DRA activity and cell surface expression compared with LR disruption only. These results suggest that the activity of DRA depends on its LR association, on its PDZ interaction, and on PI3-kinase activity.

Abstract
In the gastrointestinal tract, CFTR, in conjunction with one or several members of the SLC26 anion exchanger family, mediates electrogenic Cl- and HCO3- secretion. Na+/H+ exchanger isoform NHE3, on the other hand, coupled to one or several of the SLC26 isoforms, mediates electroneutral NaCl absorption. The agonist-induced activation of anion secretion and inhibition of salt absorption causes secretory diarrhea. Current dogma sees the formation of a multiprotein complex of transport proteins, postsynaptic density-95/discs large/zonula occludens-1 (PDZ) adapter proteins, anchoring proteins, the cytoskeleton, and the involved protein kinases as one crucial step in the regulation of these transport processes. Data obtained in heterologous expression studies suggest an important role of these PDZ adapter proteins in trafficking, endocytic recycling, and membrane retention of the respective transmembrane proteins. This article reviews recent advances in our understanding of the role of the PDZ adapter proteins NHERF, E3KARP, PDZK1, IKEPP (NHERF-1 to NHERF-4), CAL, and Shank-2 that bind to CFTR, NHE3, and the intestinal SLC26 members in the regulation of intestinal fluid transport. Current concepts are mostly derived from heterologous expression studies and studies on their role in organ physiology are still in infancy. Recently, however, PDZ adapter protein-deficient mice and organ-specific cell lines have become available, and the first results suggest a more cell-type and possibly signal-specific role of these adapter proteins. This opens the potential for drug development targeted to PDZ domain interactions, which is, in theory, one of the most efficient antidiarrheal strategies.

Abstract
NHE3 is an intestinal epithelial isoform Na+/H+ exchanger that is present in the brush border of small intestinal, colonic, and gallbladder Na(+)-absorbing epithelial cells. NHE3 is acutely up- and downregulated in response to some G protein-linked receptors, tyrosine kinase receptors, and protein kinases when studied in intact ileum, when stably expressed in PS120 fibroblasts, and in the few studies reported in the human colon cancer cell line Caco-2. In most cases this is due to changes in Vmax of NHE3, although in response to cAMP and squalamine there are also changes in the K'(H+)i of the exchanger. The mechanism of the Vmax regulation as shown by cell surface biotinylation and confocal microscopy in Caco-2 cells and biotinylation in PS120 cells involves changes in the amount of NHE3 on the plasma membrane. In addition, in some cases there are also changes in turnover number of the exchanger. In some cases, the change in amount of NHE3 in the plasma membrane is associated with a change in the amount of plasma membrane. A combination of biochemical studies and transport/inhibitor studies in intact ileum and Caco-2 cells demonstrated that the increase in brush border Na+/H+ exchange caused by acute exposure to EGF was mediated by PI 3-kinase. PI 3-kinase was also involved in FGF stimulation of NHE3 expressed in fibroblasts. Thus, NHE3 is another example of a transport protein that is acutely regulated in part by changing the amount of the transporter on the plasma membrane by a process that appears to involve vesicle trafficking and also to involve changes in turnover number.

Abstract
The stomach, duodenum, colon, and pancreas secrete HCO3- ions into the lumen. Although the importance of HCO3- secretion for the maintenance of mucosal integrity, a normal digestion, and the reabsorption of Cl- has been well established, the molecular nature of the apical and basolateral HCO3- transporting proteins has remained largely unknown. Functional studies have suggested that a Na+HCO3- cotransport system, similar but not identical to the well-characterized Na+HCO3- cotransporter in the basolateral membrane of the kidney proximal tubule, is present in duodenal and colonic enterocytes, pancreatic ducts cells, and gastric cells and involved in HCO3- uptake from the interstitium. This report describes our work towards understanding the molecular nature, cellular origin, and functional relevance of the Na+HCO3- cotransporter(s) in the stomach and intestine and reviews work by others on the function and localization of Na+HCO3- cotransport processes in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS HCO(3)(-) supply to the enterocyte is rate limiting for duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion (J(HCO3-)). This study defines the molecular nature of the major HCO(3)(-) uptake pathways in rabbit duodenocytes and investigates their physiologic significance and regulation during basal and stimulated J(HCO3-). METHODS & RESULTS pH gradient-driven (22)Na(+) uptake into duodenal basolateral membrane vesicles was partly HCO(3)(-) dependent, stilbene sensitive, and therefore mediated by Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport, and partly HCO(3)(-) independent, Hoechst 642 sensitive, and therefore mediated by the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform NHE1. Semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed high duodenal expression levels for the NBC1 isoform of the Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransporter gene family and NHE1. Cloning and comparison of full-length rabbit with human gastrointestinal and kidney NBC1 subtype revealed a conserved protein kinase A consensus sequence in the cytoplasmic N-terminus of the gastrointestinal NBC1. Inhibition of either Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport or carbonic anhydrase reduced ouabain-sensitive J(HCO3-) in in vitro rabbit duodenal mucosae by approximately 50%, but did not affect 8-Br-cAMP-induced DeltaJ(HCO3-), suggesting cAMP-mediated up-regulation of the alternative pathway. However, inhibition of both Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport and either carbonic anhydrase or NHE1 strongly reduced DeltaJ(HCO3-). CONCLUSIONS NBC1 and NHE1 are the major base importers in rabbit duodenocytes. Na(+)HCO(3)(-) cotransport and CO(2) hydration/Na(+)/H(+) exchange are equally important pathways for duodenal HCO(3)(-) supply and are up-regulated during cAMP-mediated stimulation.

Abstract
An HPLC column-switching method for the enantioselective determination of (R,S)-atenolol in human urine was developed and validated. Diluted urine samples were injected onto a LiChrospher ADS restricted access column and atenolol was separated from most of the matrix components using 0.01 M Tris buffer. The atenolol peak was sharpened by a step gradient of 30% acetonitrile and the atenolol-containing fraction was switched onto an enantioselective column. Separation of the atenolol enantiomers was carried out on a Chirobiotic T (Teicoplanin) column using acetonitrile-methanol-acetic acid-triethylamine (55:45:0.3:0.2, v/v/v/v) as eluent. Detection of the effluent was performed by fluorescence measurement. Several experiments were carried out to suppress the high blank reading, which was efficiently achieved using Tris buffer in the first dimension. For the enantioselective analysis of (R)- and (S)-atenolol in plasma under the same conditions the sample capacity of the ADS column is considerably lower.

Abstract
The members of the regulatory factor (RF) gene family, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE)-RF and NHE3 kinase A regulatory factor (E3KARP) are necessary for cAMP to inhibit the epithelial brush border NHE isoform 3 (NHE3). The mechanism of their action was studied using PS120 fibroblasts stably transfected with rabbit NHE3 and wild type rabbit NHE-RF or wild type human E3KARP. 8-Bromo-cAMP (8-Br-cAMP) had no effect on Na(+)/H(+) exchange activity in cells expressing NHE3 alone. In contrast, in cells co-expressing NHE-RF, 8-Br-cAMP inhibited NHE3 by 39%. In vivo phosphorylation of NHE3 demonstrated that cAMP increased phosphorylation in two chymotrypsin-generated phosphopeptides of NHE3 in cells containing NHE-RF or E3KARP but not in cells lacking these proteins. The requirement for phosphorylation of NHE-RF in this cAMP-induced inhibition of NHE3 was examined by studying a mutant NHE-RF in which serines 287, 289, and 290 were mutated to alanines. Wild type NHE-RF was a phosphorylated protein under basal conditions, but treatment with 8-Br-cAMP did not alter its phosphorylation. Mutant NHE-RF was not phosphorylated either under basal conditions or after 8-Br-cAMP. 8-Br-cAMP inhibited NHE3 similarly in PS120/NHE3 cells containing wild type or mutant NHE-RF. NHE-RF and NHE3 co-precipitated and did so similarly with and without cAMP. Mutant NHE-RF also similarly immunoprecipitated NHE3 in the presence and absence of 8-Br-cAMP. This study shows that members of the regulatory factor gene family, NHE-RF and E3KARP, are necessary for cAMP inhibition of NHE3 by allowing NHE3 to be phosphorylated. This inhibition is not dependent on the phosphorylation of NHE-RF.

Abstract
The Na/H exchanger regulatory factor (NHE-RE), a recently cloned renal protein, is a necessary cofactor in protein kinase A-mediated inhibition of the renal brush border membrane Na/H exchanger. No studies to date, however, have examined the regulation of NHE-RF itself. The rabbit NHE-RF cDNA and an antibody to rabbit NHE-RF were used to study the effects of serum and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) on the steady-state levels of NHE-RF mRNA and on the abundance and intracellular distribution of the protein in OK cells. Incubation of quiescent cells with serum was associated with a significant decrease in steady-state NHE-RF mRNA and protein abundance in the cytosolic and membrane fractions. Incubation of cells with cAMP for 6 h was associated with no change in NHE-mRNA at 24 h. There was, however, a 46% increase in protein abundance in the cytosolic fraction of the cell and a 43% decrease in the membrane fraction. Despite the decrease in membrane-associated NHE-RF in quiescent cells treated with serum of cAMP, there were no differences in either the basal rate of Na/H exchange transport or the inhibitory effect of the acute addition of cAMP on the transporter between experimental and control cells. These studies provide the first description of the regulation of NHE-RF. The results indicate that serum is associated with a decrease in NHE-RF mRNA and protein, while chronic exposure to cAMP is associated with an altered distribution of NHE-RF between the cytosolic and membrane fractions of OK cells.

Abstract
NHE3 is the apically located Na+/H+ exchanger in the gut and in the renal proximal tubule. Acute inhibition of this transporter by cAMP requires the presence of either of two NHE3-associated proteins, NHERF or E3KARP. It has been suggested that these proteins either directly regulate NHE3 activity after being phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA) or that they may serve as adapters that localize PKA near NHE3. We studied the role of NHERF and E3KARP in opossum kidney cells, which endogenously express NHE3, NHERF, and ezrin and display cAMP-dependent inhibition of NHE3. In vivo phosphorylation studies showed that NHERF is a phosphoprotein under basal conditions, but does not change its phosphorylation state after 8-bromo-cAMP treatment, and that E3KARP is not phosphorylated at all. Co-immunoprecipitation showed that NHERF and E3KARP bind both NHE3 and ezrin. Using cAMP analogs it was demonstrated that NHE3 activity, measured as sodium-dependent recovery of the intracellular pH after intracellular acidification, is inhibited by PKA type II. Because others have shown that ezrin binds PKA type II and that NHE3 is phosphorylated by PKA we suggest that NHERF and E3KARP are adapters that link NHE3 to ezrin, thereby localizing PKA near NHE3 to allow NHE3 phosphorylation.

Abstract
Rabbit parietal cells express three Na+/H+ exchanger isoforms (NHE1, NHE2, and NHE4). We investigated the effects of carbachol, histamine, and forskolin on Na+/H+ exchange activity and acid formation in cultured rabbit parietal cells and tested the effect of NHE isoform-specific inhibition on agonist-induced Na+/H+ exchange. Carbachol (10(-4) M) was the weakest acid secretagogue but caused the strongest Na+/H+ exchange activation, which was completely blocked by 1 microM HOE-642 (selective for NHE1); histamine (10(-4) M) and forskolin (10(-5) M) were stronger stimulants of [14C]aminopyrine accumulation but weaker stimulants of Na+/H+ exchange activity. HOE-642 (1 microM) reduced forskolin-stimulated Na+/H+ exchange activity by 35%, and 25 microM HOE-642 (inhibits NHE1 and -2) inhibited an additional 13%, but 500 microM dimethyl amiloride (inhibits NHE1, -2, and -4) caused complete inhibition. The presence of 5% CO2-HCO-3 markedly reduced agonist-stimulated H+ efflux rates, suggesting that the anion exchanger is also activated. Hyperosmolarity also activated Na+/H+ exchange. Our data suggest that, in rabbit parietal cells, Ca2+-dependent stimulation causes a selective activation of NHE1, whereas cAMP-dependent stimulation activates NHE1, NHE2, and more strongly NHE4. Because intracellular pH (pHi) did not change in the presence of CO2-HCO-3 and concomitant activation of Na+/H+ and anion exchange is one of the volume regulatory mechanisms, we speculate that the physiological significance of secretagogue-induced Na+/H+ exchange activation may not be related to pHi but to volume regulation during acid secretion.

Abstract
Cyclic AMP is a major second messenger that inhibits the brush border Na+/H+ exchanger NHE3. We have previously shown that either of two related regulatory proteins, E3KARP or NHERF, is necessary for the cAMP-dependent inhibition of NHE3. In the present study, we characterized the interaction between NHE3 and E3KARP using in vitro binding assays. We found that NHE3 directly binds to E3KARP and that the entirety of the second PSD-95/Dlg/ZO-1 (PDZ) domain plus the carboxyl-terminal domain of E3KARP are required to bind NHE3. E3KARP binds an internal region within the NHE3 C-terminal cytoplasmic tail, defining a new mode of PDZ domain interaction. Analyses of cellular distribution of NHE3 and E3KARP expressed in PS120 fibroblasts show that NHE3 and E3KARP are co-localized on the plasma membrane, but not in a distinct juxtanuclear compartment in which NHE3 is predominantly expressed. The distributions of NHE3 and E3KARP were not affected by treatment with 8-bromo-cAMP. As shown earlier for the human homolog of NHERF, we also found that the cytoskeletal protein ezrin binds to the carboxyl-terminal domain of E3KARP. These results are consistent with the possibility that E3KARP and NHERF may function as scaffold proteins that bind to both NHE3 and ezrin. Since ezrin is a protein kinase A anchoring protein, we suggest that the scaffolding function of E3KARP binding to both ezrin and NHE3 localizes cAMP-dependent protein kinase in the vicinity of the cytoplasmic domain of NHE3, which is phosphorylated by elevated cAMP.

Abstract
The assay of the ethyl chloride metabolite S-ethyl-N-acetyl-L-cysteine in human urine by HPLC is described. The compound is enriched by adsorption on a non-polar adsorbent of graphitized non-porous carbon, and then stripped from positively charged compounds by application onto a strong acid cation-exchanger. Subsequently, an enzymatic deacetylation is carried out and the acylase is removed by centrifugal ultrafiltration. Separation of the sample is performed by cation-exchange chromatography applying an eluent of a very low elution strength (diluted formic acid). In the column effluent S-ethyl-L-cysteine is derivatized by o-phthaldialdehyde and the reaction product is detected by fluorescence measurement. In human urine a detection limit in the low ppb range is achieved.

Abstract
A rapid method for the isolation of hydroxylysylpyridinoline and lysylyridinoline from bone by liquid chromatographic methods is described. Decalcified bone is hydrolysed in 7 M hydrochloric acid. After evaporation of the acid, the high molecular mass and dark coloured degradation products are removed by adsorption on non-polar adsorbents. The pyridinolines are separated from the majority of the amino acids by adsorption on cellulose. Separation of HP and LP is performed either by cation-exchange chromatography or by reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography. The pyridinoline containing fractions are desalted by size-exclusion chromatography. The progress of the hydrolytic cleavage of collagen and the optimal parameters for purification and separation were examined. As a result the existing method allows the isolation of high amounts of pyridinolines with low amounts of adsorbents and chemicals within a short time.

Abstract
Crude juices of eight Brassica vegetables as well as juices and extracts of spices and phytopharmaceutical preparations from cruciferous vegetables were tested for induction of point mutations in Salmonella TA98 and TA100, repairable DNA damage in E.coli K-12 cells and clastogenic effects in mammalian cells. In bacterial assays, all juices caused genotoxic effects in the absence of metabolic activation, the ranking order being: Brussels sprouts > white cabbage > cauliflower > green cabbage > kohlrabi > broccoli > turnip > black radish. In experiments with mammalian cells, six juices induced structural chromosome aberrations. Brussels sprouts, white and green cabbage caused the strongest effects (800 microliters of juice induced a 5-fold increase over the background). In sister chromatid exchange assays, positive results were measured as well, but the effects were less pronounced. With all juices the genotoxic effects seen in mammalian cells were paralleled by a pronounced decrease in cell viability. Column fractionation experiments showed that 70-80% of the total genotoxic activity of the juices is found in the fraction which contains isothiocyanates and other breakdown products of glucosinolates, whereas phenolics and flavonoids contributed to a lesser extent to the overall effects. On the basis of these findings, and considering the negative results obtained with non-cruciferous vegetables (tomato, carrot and green pepper), it seems likely that the genotoxic effects of the juices are due to specific constituents of cruciferous plants such as glucosinolates and/or their breakdown products, in particular, isothiocyanates, which we found previously to be potent genotoxins in bacterial and mammalian cells. Finally, spices (mustards and horse radish paste) and phytopharmaceutical preparations were tested in bacterial assays. Mustards and horse radish caused very weak effects while most of the pharmaceutical preparations gave negative results, except cabbage tablets, which caused a strong and dose dependent induction of his revertants in Salmonella TA100. The present findings clearly indicate that cruciferous vegetables contain DNA damaging constituents. These observations are in contrast to earlier findings, which emphasized the antimutagenic effects of vegetable juices and also raise the question whether greatly increased consumption of Brassica vegetables or their concentrated constituents as a means for cancer prevention is indeed recommendable.

Abstract
An automated two-dimensional HPLC method for the determination of neopterin in serum is described. Neopterin is separated from proteins on a short octadecylsilica column by size exclusion and from the majority of the other serum components by adsorption. The fraction containing neopterin is transferred by column switching to a solvent-generated cation-exchange column using dodecylsulfonic acid as surface activator. Parameters influencing the separation performance and sensitivity of the fluorescence detection are discussed. The efficiency of the cleaning of the first column was optimized. The method was validated. It achieves a precision of 1% (R.S.D.) and a detection limit of about 0.3 nmol/l. The accuracy is nearly 100%. The method allows a high sample throughput, requiring 15 min per sample.

Different regulation by pHi and osmolarity of the rabbit ileum brush-border and parietal cell basolateral anion exchanger. J Physiol 1994; 481 ( Pt 3):605-15.

Abstract
1. The purpose of this study was to look for evidence of a pH-sensitive modifier site on the parietal cell basolateral anion exchanger, determine the pH range in which allosteric regulation takes place, investigate the effect of the osmolarity on internal pH (pHi) dependence and compare it with that of the ileum brush-border anion exchanger. 2. When the pHi in parietal cell basolateral membrane (BLM) vesicles was increased, the rate of Cl(-)-gradient-driven 36Cl- uptake increased from 6.03 +/- 2.24 to 38.09 +/- 3.33 nmol (mg protein)-1 with the steep increase in anion exchange rates occurring within a narrow pH range between pHi 7.0 and 7.5. This was due to allosteric activation by internal OH- and not due to a change in driving force, since the driving force for maximal exchange rates was provided by the outwardly directed Cl- gradient. 3. The pHi dependency curve of parietal cell BLM anion exchange rates was shifted to the left by 0.25 pH units by increasing the osmolarity of the intra- and extravesicular solutions from 300 to 380 mosmol l-1. Thus cell shrinking may activate the parietal cell anion exchanger without a change in pHi and without phosphorylation of the anion exchanger protein. 4. In ileum brush-border membranes, the pHi-dependent increase in the rate of Cl(-)-gradient-driven 36Cl- uptake was more gradual and the half-maximal anion exchange rate was attained at lower pHi (pH 6.5). Increasing the osmolarity from 300 to 500 mosmol l-1 had no effect on pH dependence. 5. We conclude that the parietal cell basolateral and ileum brush-border anion exchangers possess an internal modifier site for allosteric activation by OH-, but the pH range in which allosteric regulation occurs differs between the two exchangers, as does the effect of an increase in osmolarity. Since current evidence suggests that both the parietal cell basolateral and the ileum brush-border anion exchanger are encoded by the AE2 gene, the differences in pHi dependence between the two may be due to alternative splicing, post-transcriptional modification, or the different membrane environment. 6. The pHi range for allosteric activation found in this study would suggest that for both the ileum and the parietal cell anion exchanger, but especially for the latter, a potentiating effect of the allosteric activation and the HCO3- availability occurs within the physiological pHi range and can cause dramatic increases in maximal anion exchange rates with increasing pHi.

Abstract
Na(+)-H+ and Cl(-)-base exchangers on the parietal cell have been demonstrated by several authors. Controversy exists concerning a basolateral Na(+)-HCO3- cotransporter in the parietal cell. To clarify this issue, we prepared highly enriched basolateral membrane (BLM) and apical-tubulovesicular membrane (to serve as negative controls) vesicles from rabbit fundic mucosa. Na(+)-H+ exchange was demonstrated by measuring pH gradient-driven amiloride-sensitive 22Na+ uptake and Na+ gradient-driven proton uptake into voltage-clamped BLM but not into apical-tubulovesicular vesicles. Anion exchange was demonstrated by measuring 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS)-inhibitable influx of 36Cl- into Cl(-)- or HCO3(-)-loaded voltage-clamped BLM vesicles. Na(+)-HCO3- cotransport was assessed by comparing HCO3(-)-driven 22Na uptake with uptake driven by an identical pH gradient. No significant difference was found between 22Na uptake in the presence and absence of HCO3-; 1 mM amiloride inhibited 22Na uptake > 90% in both conditions, whereas 2 mM DIDS had no effect. In BLM vesicles prepared from rabbit renal cortex, however, a HCO3- gradient stimulated 22Na uptake much more than an equivalent pH gradient, and DIDS inhibited this HCO3- gradient-driven 22Na uptake. This indicates that our experimental setup was suitable to detect a Na(+)-HCO3- cotransporter if present. Our data suggest that the parietal cell BLM contains Na(+)-H+ exchangers and Cl(-)-HCO3- exchangers but no Na(+)-HCO3- cotransporter.

Abstract
A hundred and ninety-six textile samples were tested in a modified version of the Salmonella/microsome assay for release of mutagenic contaminants. As heat sterilization of the samples can result in reduction of mutagenic activity, tests were performed with streptomycin resistant derivatives of Salmonella tester strains TA98 and TA100. Textile samples were preincubated in buffered saline (PBS), DMSO or ethanol. Subsequently, the fabrics were placed on streptomycin supplemented selective agar plates. In total, 18 samples (9.2%) exerted mutagenic activity. DMSO was the most effective solvent (15 positives) followed by ethanol (9 positive samples) and PBS (7 positives). Most fabrics (16) caused mutagenic effects only upon metabolic activation with liver S9 mix. Chemical analysis indicates that the positive results obtained with PBS are not due to release of histidine or formaldehyde. Three directly active samples gave negative results in strain TA98NR which is devoid of classical nitroreductase. With one exception all other textiles were negative in strain TA98/1,8-DNP6 (which lacks O-acetyltransferase). These findings indicate that nitroaromatics and amines might be responsible for the mutagenic effects of the textiles.
