title: [Polarized expression of type I phosphodiesterases in epithelial cells].
abstract: Type I phosphodiesterases are differently expressed by different cell types. Three members have been identified, PC-1, B10 and autotaxin. They are between 40 and 50% identical at the amino acid sequence level. Hepatocytes express both B10 and PC-1 at their plasma membrane. However, B10 is exclusively expressed at the apical pole whereas PC-1 is located at the basolateral pole. Studies of the biosynthetic route of B10 in hepatocytes shows that B10 is first transported to the basolateral surface and secondarily reaches the basolateral surface. The transcytotic step between the basolateral and apical surface occurs through a tubular endosomal compartment identical to the transcytotic compartment of the polymeric IgA receptor. Transfected in the polarized cell lines MDCK and Caco-2 of renal and intestinal origin, B10 and PC-1 are expressed at the apical and basolateral poles respectively, as in hepatocytes. However, the biosynthetic transport of B10 occurs directly in MDCK cells and both directly and by transcytosis in Caco-2 cells. Truncation of the cytoplasmic domain of PC-1 generates an apical protein indicating that the basolateral signal of PC-1 is likely to be in the cytoplasmic domain. The nature of the apical targeting signal of B10 is under investigation.
