The coupling of phosphate and glucose transport to sodium in brush-border membrane vesicles from rat kidney cortex was studied after chemical modification of arginine residues by phenylglyoxal. Phosphate (10 mM) and sodium (20 mM) uptakes were linear for 6 s and stimulated in the presence of their cosubstrate. The sodium: phosphate stoichiometry measured by a direct method was 1.74. Sodium-independent phosphate and glucose influx were found to be unaffected by phenylglyoxylation. Phosphate- or glucose-independent sodium influx also remained unaltered by the treatment. However, phosphate influx measured with sodium was inhibited by 69% and sodium influx measured with phosphate was inhibited by 40%. When these values were corrected for uncoupled fluxes, the sodium influx coupled to phosphate and the phosphate influx coupled to sodium were inhibited by 93 and 95%, respectively. Glucose influx measured in the presence of sodium was inhibited by 36% and sodium influx in the presence of glucose was reduced by 39%. When the values were corrected for diffusion, these inhibitions were 95 and 100%, respectively. We conclude that the coupling of phosphate and glucose to sodium fluxes by the renal carriers requires the participation of arginine residue(s) in the translocation process. Modification of this arginine by phenylglyoxal leads to a marked inhibition of coupling. These results suggest the implication of arginine residues in the molecular coupling for both glucose and phosphate sodium symporters.

Phosphate Carrier

Phosphate transport was studied in brush-border membrane vesicles purified from rat kidney cortex. Influx and efflux were strongly dependent on the presence of cis sodium; the rate of efflux, calculated by linear regression performed on the first time points, was much lower than the rate of influx (0.044 vs. 0.198 pmol.microgram protein-1.s-1). Trans phosphate had a stimulatory effect on phosphate influx (145% stimulation at 10 mM phosphate trans, with 0.2 mM phosphate cis). Trans phosphate was, however, inhibitory for phosphate efflux (89% inhibition at 10 mM phosphate trans). Trans effects of sodium were also studied. With 200 mM trans sodium, we observed 73% inhibition of phosphate influx and 60% inhibition of phosphate efflux. Studies involving sodium and phosphate present at the same time as trans substrates showed that the trans inhibition of phosphate influx by sodium could be completely reversed by trans phosphate. Trans inhibition of phosphate efflux by phosphate was not additive to the inhibition caused by sodium. Addition of trans phosphate had a stimulatory effect on sodium-independent influx, indicating that the binary complex (C-P) could translocate in efflux. These results indicate that the renal phosphate carrier presents a random binding scheme for the intra- and extravesicular sides of the membrane.

Orientation of rat renal and intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles was studied with two independent methods: electron-microscopic freeze-fracture technique and immunological methods. With the freeze-fracture technique a distinct asymmetric distribution of particles on the two membrane fracture faces was demonstrated; this was used as a criterion for orientation of the isolated membrane vesicles. For the immunological approach the accessibility or inaccessibility of aminopeptidase M localized on the outer surface of the cell membrane to antibodies was used. With both methods we showed that the brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kidney cortex and from rat small intestine for transport studies are predominantly orientated right-side out.

Uptake of SO42− into brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kindey cortex by a Ca2+-precipitation method was investigated by using a rapid-filtration technique. Uptake of SO42− by the vesicles was osmotically sensitive and represented transport into an intra-vesicular space. Transport of SO42− by brush-border membranes was stimulated in the presence of Na+, compared with the presence of K+ or other univalent cations. A typical ‘overshoot’ phenomenon was observed in the presence of an NaCl gradient (100mm-Na+ outside/zero mm-Na+ inside). Radioactive-SO42− exchange was faster in the presence of Na+ than in the presence of K+. Addition of gramicidin-D, an ionophore for univalent cations, decreased the Na+-gradient-driven SO42− uptake. SO42− uptake was only saturable in the presence of Na+. Counter-transport of Na+-dependent SO42− transport was shown with MoO42− and S2O32−, but not with PO42−. Changing the electrical potential difference across the vesicle membrane by establishing different diffusion potentials (anion replacement; K+ gradient±valinomycin) was not able to alter Na+-dependent SO42− uptake. The experiments indicate the presence of an electroneutral Na+/SO42−-co-transport system in brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from rat kidney cortex.

Basolateral membrane vesicles were isolated from rat kidney cortex and small intestinal enterocytes. Both membrane preparations show ATP-dependent calcium uptake and cytochalasin B-sensitive D-glucose transport. In renal membranes, sodium influx is stimulated by bicarbonate; bicarbonate-dependent sodium flux is membrane-potential-dependent and inhibited by 4,4′-di-isothiocyanato-2, 2′-stilbenedisulphanic acid (‘DIDS’). Small intestinal basolateral membranes do not show bicarbonate-dependent sodium fluxes.

Na Uptake

Brush-border membrane vesicles were prepared from rat kidney cortex by Mg precipitation. Using quin2 (free acid), intravesicular [Ca2+] was found to be 44 microM and less than 300 nM when vesicles were incubated in 0.2 mM CaCl2 or Ca-free buffer, respectively. In Ca-loaded vesicles, the initial D-glucose uptake, measured in the presence of 150 mM Na+ and 0.1 mM D-glucose inward gradients, was reduced to 30% of the control uptake. This reduction persisted when the extra-vesicular Ca2+ was chelated by ethylene glycol-bis(beta-amino-ethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid but was abolished in the presence of saturating concentrations of D-glucose. Whereas KG0.5 (g) for D-glucose at constant [Na] in the Ca-loaded membranes increased by approximately 50% of the control value (0.5 +/- 0.1 mM), no significant change in Jmax was observed. In contrast, both Jmax and KG0.5 (Na) for glucose, measured as a function of [Na] in the extravesicular fluid, were found to be significantly reduced. Na uptake, determined in the presence of 0.5 mM amiloride, was found to increase by approximately 30% of the value for control membrane. This increase was abolished when vesicles were preincubated with 0.5 mM neomycin or 0.5 mM phlorizin. The results suggest that the effect of Ca2+ on Na entry may be mediated in part by activation of phospholipase C and are consistent with a model of cotransport in which Ca2+ increases the mobility of the binary Na-sugar-translocator complex, thus leading to uncoupling of Na transport from glucose uptake (“slipping”) and in part with Ca-induced Na entry by nonmediated leakage.

The presence of membrane vesicles containing an ATP-driven H+ pump was demonstrated in rat kidney cortex homogenate using the delta pH-sensitive dye acridine orange (AO). These vesicles were purified by differential and Percoll density gradient centrifugation. ATP-driven H+ uptake was about 20-fold enriched compared with the homogenate. Determination of marker enzyme activities indicated that these vesicles do not originate from brush border and basolateral membranes, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi membranes, or red blood cells. The identity with brush border membranes was further excluded by the absence of Na+-H+ exchange. Renal cortical endocytotic vesicles that had taken up horseradish peroxidase or fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (FITC-dextran) after injection of these substances into rats in vivo comigrated with the H+ pump activity on the Percoll gradient. Similar characteristics of the H+ pump demonstrated by the AO method and by fluorescence changes of in vivo trapped FITC-dextran proved the identity of H+ pump-containing vesicles with endocytotic vesicles. ATP-driven H+ uptake into endocytotic vesicles was stimulated by Cl- and weakly inhibited by oligomycin. N-ethylmaleimide, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and Dio-9 were stronger inhibitors. Histochemical studies revealed that horseradish peroxidase-filled endocytotic vesicles are localized in the apical region of proximal tubule cells. An H+ pump with similar characteristics, but much lower activity, was found in brush border membranes, basolateral membranes, and mitochondria isolated by standard techniques, suggesting a possible contamination of these preparations with endocytotic vesicles.
