Cyclic AMP-induced chloride permeability in the apical membrane of Necturus gallbladder epithelium.

Abstract: The effects of theophylline, 8-Br-cAMP, and cAMP on Necturus gallbladder epithelium were investigated using microelectrode techniques. Each of these substances depolarized the cell membranes by ~ 15 mV and decreased the apparent ratio of apical to basolateral membrane resistances to a value not significantly different from zero. Examination of the ionic selectivity of the apical membrane by ion substitutions in the mucosal bathing medium revealed a large increase in Cl permeability with no apparent changes in … Show more

“…In contrast with these observations, Duffey et al (1981), in a study primarily designed to assess the effect of CAMP on the junctional complexes of Necturus gallbladder epithelium, found a moderate depolarization of the cell membranes and a large fall in the ratio of cell membrane resistances (apical:basolateral). We subsequently confirmed these results and showed, from measurements of membrane voltages, membrane conductances, and intracellular Cl-activity, that CAMP activates an apical membrane Clconductance (Petersen and Reuss, 1983).…”

“…These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the elevation of intracellular cAMP levels inhibits apical membrane Cl-/HCO3 exchange. It must be noted, however, that the ionic composition of the intracellular compartment is different in control and in theophyllinetreated preparations (Petersen and Reuss, 1983;Reuss and Petersen, 1985). Therefore, it is possible that the reduction in HCO-3 efflux in these experiments is due to a reduction of the net driving force for anion exchange.…”

“…A cyclic AMP induced increase in Cl conductance in the apical membrane of Necturus gallbadder epithelium has been observed using electrophysiological methods (Petersen & Reuss, 1983). This view is corroborated by the following results: (a) the rate of exit of "Br from theophylline-treated tissue is enhanced (Table 4); (b) the rate of exit of mannitol across the mucosal surface seen in the presence of theophylline is increased (Table 5).…”

“…In epithelial cells, [Cl Ϫ ] i is determined by the steady-state relationship between Cl Ϫ transporters in apical and basolateral membranes (25) (47), spiny dogfish rectal gland tubules (22), canine trachea (53), and human colonic epithelium (7,39), but [Cl Ϫ ] i increases with stimulation in human colonic epithelial cells (37).…”
