The effect
of ANG II on mucosal ion transport and localization of ANG type 1 receptor (AT1R) in the guinea pig distal colon was
investigated. Submucosal/mucosal segments were mounted in Ussing flux
chambers, and short-circuit current (Isc) was
measured as an index of ion transport. Serosal addition of ANG II
produced a concentration-dependent
(10
9-10
5
M) increase in Isc. The maximal response was
observed at 10
6 M; the increase in
Isc was 164.4 ± 11.8 µA/cm2. The
ANG II (10
6 M)-evoked response was
mainly due to Cl
secretion. Tetrodotoxin, atropine,
the neurokinin type 1 receptor antagonist FK-888, and piroxicam
significantly reduced the ANG II (10
6
M)-evoked response to 28, 45, 58, and 16% of control, respectively. Pretreatment with prostaglandin E2
(10
5 M) resulted in a threefold increase
in the ANG II-evoked response. The AT1R antagonist
FR-130739 completely blocked ANG II (10
6
M)-evoked responses, whereas the ANG type 2 receptor antagonist PD-123319 had no effect. Localization of AT1R was
determined by immunohistochemistry. In the immunohistochemical study,
AT1R-immunopositive cells were distributed clearly in
enteric nerves and moderately in surface epithelial cells. These
results suggest that ANG II-evoked electrogenic Cl
secretion may involve submucosal cholinergic and tachykinergic neurons
and prostanoid synthesis pathways through AT1R on the submucosal plexus and surface epithelial cells in guinea pig distal colon.
