We asked if the mechanisms of exocytosis and its regulation in epithelial cells share features with those in excitable cells. Cultured dog pancreatic duct epithelial cells were loaded with an oxidizable neurotransmitter, dopamine or serotonin, and the subsequent release of these exogenous molecules during exocytosis was detected by carbon-fiber amperometry. Loaded cells displayed spontaneous exocytosis that may represent constitutive membrane transport. The quantal amperometric events induced by fusion of single vesicles had a rapid onset and decay, resembling those in adrenal chromaffin cells and serotonin-secreting leech neurons. Quantal events were frequently preceded by a “foot,” assumed to be leak of transmitters through a transient fusion pore, suggesting that those cell types share a common fusion mechanism. As in neurons and endocrine cells, exocytosis in the epithelial cells could be evoked by elevating cytoplasmic Ca2+ using ionomycin. Unlike in neurons, hyperosmotic solutions decreased exocytosis in the epithelial cells, and giant amperometric events composed of many concurrent quantal events were observed occasionally. Agents known to increase intracellular cAMP in the cells, such as forskolin, epinephrine, vasoactive intestinal peptide, or 8-Br-cAMP, increased the rate of exocytosis. The forskolin effect was inhibited by the Rp-isomer of cAMPS, a specific antagonist of protein kinase A, whereas the Sp-isomer, a specific agonist of PKA, evoked exocytosis. Thus, PKA is a downstream effector of cAMP. Finally, activation of protein kinase C by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate also increased exocytosis. The PMA effect was not mimicked by the inactive analogue, 4α-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate, and it was blocked by the PKC antagonist, bisindolylmaleimide I. Elevation of intracellular Ca2+ was not needed for the actions of forskolin or PMA. In summary, exocytosis in epithelial cells can be stimulated directly by Ca2+, PKA, or PKC, and is mediated by physical mechanisms similar to those in neurons and endocrine cells.

Secretion of salt and water by the epithelial cells that line pancreatic ducts depends on activation of apical membrane Cl- conductance. In the present study, we characterized two types of Cl- conductances present in the apical cell membrane of bovine pancreatic duct epithelial cells. Primary cultures of bovine main pancreatic duct epithelium and an immortalized cell line (BPD1) derived from primary cultures were used. Elevation of intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) or Ca2+ in intact monolayers of duct epithelium induced sustained anion secretion. Agonist-induced changes in plasma membrane Cl- permeability were accessed by 36 Cl- efflux, whole cell current recording, and measurements of transepithelial Cl- current across permeabilized epithelial monolayers. Elevation of intracellular cAMP elicited a sustained increase in Cl- permeability, whereas elevation of intracellular Ca2+ induced only a transient increase in Cl- permeability. Ca(2+)- but not cAMP-induced increases in Cl- permeability were abolished by preincubation of cells with the Ca2+ buffer 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, tetra(acetoxymethyl) ester (BAPTA-AM). N-phenylanthranilic acid (DPC; 1 mM) and glibenclamide (100 microM), but not 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS; 500 microM), inhibited the cAMP-induced increase in Cl- permeability. In contrast, DPC and DIDS, but not glibenclamide, inhibited the Ca(2+)-induced increase in Cl- permeability. We conclude from these experiments that bovine pancreatic duct epithelial cells express at least two types of Cl- channels, cAMP and Ca2+ activated, in the apical cell membrane. Because the Ca(2+)-activated increase in Cl- permeability is transient, the extent to which this pathway contributes to sustained anion secretion by the ductal epithelium remains to be determined.
