Thiol-oxidant monochloramine mobilizes intracellular Ca2+ in parietal cells of rabbit gastric glands.

چکیده
In Helicobacter pylori-induced gastritis, oxidants are generated through the interactions of bacteria in the lumen, activated granulocytes, and cells of the gastric mucosa. In this study we explored the ability of one such class of oxidants, represented by monochloramine (NH(2)Cl), to serve as agonists of Ca(2+) accumulation within the parietal cell of the gastric gland. Individual gastric glands isolated from rabbit mucosa were loaded with fluorescent reporters for Ca(2+) in the cytoplasm (fura-2 AM) or intracellular stores (mag-fura-2 AM). Conditions were adjusted to screen out contributions from metal cations such as Zn(2+), for which these reporters have affinity. Exposure to NH(2)Cl (up to 200 microM) led to dose-dependent increases in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), in the range of 200-400 nM above baseline levels. These alterations were prevented by pretreatment with the oxidant scavenger vitamin C or a thiol-reducing agent, dithiothreitol (DTT), which shields intracellular thiol groups from oxidation by chlorinated oxidants. Introduction of vitamin C during ongoing exposure to NH(2)Cl arrested but did not reverse accumulation of Ca(2+) in the cytoplasm. In contrast, introduction of DTT or N-acetylcysteine permitted arrest and partial reversal of the effects of NH(2)Cl. Accumulation of Ca(2+) in the cytoplasm induced by NH(2)Cl is due to release from intracellular stores, entry from the extracellular fluid, and impaired extrusion. Ca(2+)-handling proteins are susceptible to oxidation by chloramines, leading to sustained increases in [Ca(2+)](i). Under certain conditions, NH(2)Cl may act not as an irritant but as an agent that activates intracellular signaling pathways. Anti-NH(2)Cl strategies should take into account different effects of oxidant scavengers and thiol-reducing agents.

Monochloramine-induced toxicity and dysregulation of intracellular Zn2+ in parietal cells of rabbit gastric glands.
Monochloramine (NH(2)Cl) is a potent, thiol-directed oxidant capable of oxidizing thiol (S-H) residues in a wide variety of proteins. Generated in the stomach by the interaction of bacterial and host products, monochloramine has been shown to dysregulate Ca(2+) homeostasis and disrupt mucosal integrity. In this report, we show that monochloramine also leads to disturbances in intracellular free...
متن کاملAspirin potentiates prestimulated acid secretion and mobilizes intracellular calcium in rabbit parietal cells.
The effects of aspirin on gastric acid secretion were studied in isolated rabbit parietal cells (PC). Aspirin (10(-5) M) potentiated histamine-, dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP)-, forskolin- and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine-stimulated acid secretion without affecting basal acid secretion. Augmentation of secretagogue-stimulated acid secretion by aspirin was dependent on calcium (Ca2+) since potenti...
متن کاملHeterogenous distribution of free calcium and propagation of calcium transient in gastric parietal cells revealed by digital imaging microscopy.
Spatial and temporal changes of cytoplasmic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in single parietal cells of guinea pig were investigated with a digital imaging microscope equipped with a microspectrofluorometer, using a Ca2+-sensitive dye, fura-2. Intracellular distribution of [Ca2+]i was not homogeneous, but there were two kinds of [Ca2+]i gradient in the resting parietal cells, one a continu...

Peptides release histamine from enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells because of elevation of intracellular Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]i) by either receptor-operated or voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCC). To determine whether VDCCs contribute to histamine release stimulated by gastrin or pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), the presence of VDCCs and their possible modulatio...
متن کاملThe putative phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 and its negative control, U73343, elicit unexpected effects on the rabbit parietal cell.
In order to elucidate the role of phospholipase C (PLC) in gastric acid secretion, we used U73122, a commonly employed specific inhibitor of receptor-mediated PLC, and its negative control, U73343. Although 10 microM U73122 inhibited the increase in [Ca++]i induced by U46619 in rabbit platelets, Ca++ transients in the rabbit parietal cells elicited by histamine and carbachol were both resistant...
