and
secretion by
uroguanylin
1 Department of Pharmacology,
Uroguanylin is an intestinal peptide hormone
that may regulate epithelial ion transport by activating a receptor
guanylyl cyclase on the luminal surface of the intestine. In this
study, we examined the action of uroguanylin on anion transport in
different segments of freshly excised mouse intestine, using
voltage-clamped Ussing chambers. Uroguanylin induced larger increases
in short-circuit current
(Isc) in
proximal duodenum and cecum compared with jejunum, ileum, and distal
colon. The acidification of the lumen of the proximal duodenum (pH
5.0-5.5) enhanced the stimulatory action of uroguanylin. In
physiological Ringer solution, a significant fraction of the
Isc stimulated by
uroguanylin was insensitive to bumetanide and dependent on
in the bathing medium.
Experiments using pH-stat titration revealed that uroguanylin stimulates serosal-to-luminal
secretion (
)
together with a larger increase in
Isc. Both
and Isc were
significantly augmented when luminal pH was reduced to pH 5.15. Uroguanylin also stimulated the
and Isc across
the cecum, but luminal acidity caused a generalized decrease in the
bioelectric responsiveness to agonist stimulation. In cystic fibrosis
transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) knockout mice, the duodenal
Isc response to
uroguanylin was markedly reduced, but not eliminated, despite having a
similar density of functional receptors. It was concluded that
uroguanylin is most effective in acidic regions of the small intestine,
where it stimulates both
and
Cl
secretion primarily via
a CFTR-dependent mechanism.
