title: Polarized expression of Na+/H+ exchange activity in LLC-PK1/PKE20 cells: II. Hormonal regulation.
abstract: LLC-PK1/PKE20 cells (a continuous epithelial cell line) has two different Na/H exchange activities: Na/H-1 located in the basolateral membrane and Na/H-2 located in the apical membrane [Casavola et al. (1989) Biochem Biophys Res Commun 165:833-837; Haggerty et al. (1988) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 86:6797-6801]. In the present report we have studied hormone regulation of these exchange activities by measuring Na-dependent recovery of pHi from an acid load (by using microspectrofluorometry and 2,7-bis(carboxyethyl)-5,6-carboxyfluorescein) in response to activation of regulatory cascades by either pharmacological agents or by vasopressin or calcitonin. Agents leading to activation of protein kinase A (cAMP-dependent), such as forskolin (10 microM), 8-Br-cAMP (0.25 mM), and isobutylmethylxanthine (0.5 mM), inhibited Na/H-2 and Na/H-1 by an average of 49%. Stimulation of protein kinase C by a phorbol ester (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, TPA, 100 nM) inhibited Na/H-2 (by an average of 48%) and stimulated Na/H-1 (by an average of 38%); these effects of TPA were also observed in the presence of forskolin (100 microM). Addition of either vasopressin (2 microM) or calcitonin (0.3 microM) onto both sides of the monolayer decreased the activity of Na/H-2 by an average of 26.3% and 27.7% respectively, and stimulated the activity of Na/H-1 by an average of 17.4% and 38.7% respectively; exposure of cells to either hormone stimulated production of cAMP and inositol trisphosphate, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
