Ca(2+)-mobilizing hormones potentiate hypotonicity-induced activation of ionic conductances in Intestine 407 cells.
Human Intestine 407 cells respond to hyposmotic stimulation by activating the conductive efflux of both Cl- and K+ (regulatory volume decrease) through pathways involving protein tyrosine phosphorylation (Tilly, B. C., N. van den Berghe, L. G. J. Tertoolen, M. J. Edixhoven, and H. R. de Jonge. J. Biol. Chem. 268: 19919-19922, 1993). Stimulation of the cells with hormones linked to the phospholipase C signaling cascade (e.g., bradykinin, histamine, or thrombin) or with the phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate, potentiated the osmosensitive anion efflux by two- to threefold but did not affect anion efflux under isotonic conditions. No substantial increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was observed on mild hypotonicity-induced cell swelling. In addition, loading the cells with the intracellular Ca2+ chelator 1,2-bis(2-amino-phenoxy)ethane- N,N,N',N',-tetraacetic acid acetoxymethyl ester (BAPTA-AM) caused a partial reduction of the osmoshock-induced 125I- efflux but did not affect its potentiation by vanadate. In contrast, bradykinin transiently elevated [Ca2+]i, and its potentiation of the osmosensitive anion efflux was completely inhibited after BAPTA-AM loading. Both the Ca(2+)-mobilizing hormones as well as osmotic cell swelling rapidly triggered the phosphorylation of several proteins on tyrosine residues. However, the effects of the hormones, but not the effect of hypotonicity, on protein tyrosine phosphorylation was largely abolished in BAPTA-loaded cells. Taken together the results indicate a novel role for Ca(2+)-mobilizing hormones, although elevation of [Ca2+]i, in potentiating volume-sensitive ionic efflux even in cell types lacking the expression of Ca(2+)-activated Cl- channels in their plasma membrane.
