We have previously demonstrated inhibition of basal Cl- secretion by intracellular bicarbonate concentration ([HCO3-]i) in rat distal colon. We now examined whether secretagogue-induced Cl- secretion is inhibited by [HCO3-]i as well. Stripped segments of distal colon from male Sprague-Dawley rats and the colon tumor cell line T84 were studied. Flux measurements were performed in the Ussing chamber under short-circuit conditions. [HCO3-]i was calculated from intracellular pH (pHi) values that were estimated with the pH-sensitive dye 2',7'-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein. Dibutyryl adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and carbachol were used as secretagogues. In both distal colon and T84 cells, [HCO3-]i did not affect cAMP-induced Cl- secretion. However, carbachol-induced secretion was inhibited by [HCO3-]i; in rat colon, Cl- secretion decreased from 2.3 to 1.5 mueq.cm-2.h-1 when [HCO3-]i was increased from 15.0 to 28.4 mM (P < 0.05). In T84 cells, the change in short-circuit current decreased from 8.1 to 1.1 microA/cm2 over a range of [HCO3-]i from 0 to 15.6 mM (P < 0.001). We conclude that [HCO3-]i is an important modulator of carbachol-stimulated Cl- secretion in both rat distal colon and the T84 cell line. cAMP-mediated secretion is not affected by [HCO3-]i.
