Characterization of basolateral K+ channels underlying anion secretion in the human airway cell line Calu‐3

Abstract: Transepithelial anion secretion in many tissues depends upon the activity of basolateral channels. Using monolayers of the Calu‐3 cell line, a human submucosal serous cell model mounted in an Ussing chamber apparatus, we investigated the nature of the K+ channels involved in basal, cAMP‐ and Ca2+‐stimulated anion secretion, as reflected by the transepithelial short circuit current (Isc). The non‐specific K+ channel inhibitor Ba2+ inhibited the basal Isc by either 77 or 16 % when applied directly to the basolat… Show more

“…KCNQ2, KCNQ4, and KCNN1 mRNA were not expressed in cultures of freshly isolated HBE cells. In contrast, Calu-3 cells did not express KCNE1 mRNA (24). We confirmed KCNE1 expression in HBE cells by RT-PCR using two different sets of KCNE1-specific primers and cDNAs from three human subjects (data not shown).…”

“…Prior data suggest that some KCNQ channels, including KCNQ1, KCNE2, KCNE3, KCNN4, and ATP1AL1, a nongastric H ϩ , K ϩ -ATPase, are expressed in human airway epithelia (13,24,27). RT-PCR was done to test for expression of transcripts encoding KCNQ1-5, KCNE1-4, KCNN1-4, and ATP1AL1.…”

“…Basal and stimulated secretion in Calu-3 cells requires basolateral K ϩ channels, and two types have been identified (6,43). Most basal I sc and essentially all I sc stimulated by increased [cAMP] i is blocked by the ammonium-derived compound clofilium, but not by clotrimazole.…”

“…The Calu-3 cell line (1) is widely used as a model for human airway gland serous cells (2)(3)(4)(5)(6). When grown to confluence, Calu-3 cells form polarized monolayers and express CFTR 1 apically at high levels (1).…”

“…The last member of the family, MiRP4 was identified later (6). Although MiRPs were initially identified as cardiac proteins, they were soon found to be expressed and function in other tissues and to cause acquired and congenital disease (2,(7)(8)(9)(10)(11). For instance, MiRP2 is expressed in skeletal muscle where it associates with Kv3.…”
