Abstract. To examine the hormonal regulation of the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump in the kidneys, the ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by the basolateral membrane vesicles in the renal cortex was measured using radioactive calcium (45Ca2+) in rats with vitamin D deficiency or rats undergoing thyroparathyroidectomy. The Vmax of the Ca2+ pump activity was increased not only by administering calcitriol, but also by normalizing the serum calcium level in vitamin D-deficient rats. PTH suppressed the Ca2+ pump activity in normocalcemic vitamin D-deficient rats. Thyroparathyroidectomy did not affect the Ca2+ pump activity in the kidneys of normal rats. It was concluded that the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump activity was depressed by secondary hyperparathyroidism in vitamin D-deficient rats.

Transport of Ca2+ by the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump has been demonstrated previously in rat intestinal basolateral-membrane vesicles. To identify the Ca2+-pump protein, duodenal basolateral membranes were phosphorylated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Ca2+ and La3+, under conditions conducive for maximal formation of the phosphorylated intermediate of the Ca2+ pump. Four major phosphoprotein bands were seen on autoradiograms of acidic SDS/polyacrylamide gels; the properties of a phosphoprotein (pp) at 130 kDa (pp130) were consistent with those expected for the plasma-membrane Ca2+ pump. This phosphoprotein was markedly enhanced by La3+, exhibited the characteristics of an acyl-phosphate bond, was preferentially phosphorylated from ATP and inhibited by micromolar concentrations of vanadate. Another phosphoprotein of 115 kDa possibly represented the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump or a fragment of pp130. Other phosphoproteins of 75 and 95 kDa were predominantly expressions of alkaline phosphatase. Formation of pp130 was highest in duodenal basolateral-membrane preparations when compared with those of jejunum and ileum or other subcellular fractions. A similar correlation between Ca2+-pump activity and pp130 formation was not found in membranes from villus-tip and crypt cells or in vitamin D-deficient animals. pp130 was isolated as a single phosphoprotein by calmodulin-affinity chromatography. We conclude that pp130 represents the phosphorylated intermediate of the rat intestinal basolateral-membrane Ca2+ pump, which can be separated from other phosphoproteins using its properties as a calmodulin-binding protein.

Rat duodenal cells were isolated sequentially to give fractions enriched for villus and crypt cells. From each of these fractions, basolateral-enriched membrane vesicles were prepared and ATP-dependent calcium uptake was studied. Calcium uptake was sensitive to temperature, was inhibited by vanadate and by A23187, and was lower in vitamin D-deficient animals. In normal animals, calcium transport was approximately twofold greater in villus-tip than in crypt cell-fraction basolateral membranes though the affinity of the uptake for calcium was similar (Km = 0.3 microM). In vitamin D-deficient animals, the crypt-to-villus gradient was reduced, and in all fractions, calcium transport was similar to or lower than that in the crypts of normal animals. Six hours after vitamin D-deficient animals were repleted with 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, a significant increase in calcium transport by everted gut sacs was present; however, basolateral calcium transport was significantly increased in only the mid-villus fractions, and no change was seen in the villus-tip fractions. Thus vitamin D appears necessary for the development of increased basolateral membrane calcium pump activity in duodenal villus cells, but not all cells in vitamin D-deficient rats are able to respond to 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol.

Stimulation Of

Calbindin-D9k, a vitamin D-dependent Ca2+-binding protein, is closely associated with the transcellular absorption of calcium by mammalian enterocytes. Studies were performed to determine whether physiological concentrations of calbindin-D9k altered Ca2+ transport by the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump in rat duodenal basolateral membrane vesicles. In solutions where free Ca2+ was buffered by EGTA, only a small stimulation of Ca2+ uptake rates could be demonstrated, and it was likely that this was secondary to changes in free Ca2+ concentration. However, a threefold stimulation of uptake by 30 microM calbindin-D9k was found when EGTA-free solutions were used, and changes in free Ca2+ activity or 45Ca2+ specific activity were avoided. The affinity for Ca2+ was reduced in this system but appeared to be stimulated by either calbindin-D9k or EGTA. Other Ca2+-binding proteins that bind Ca2+ in the micromolar range were found to increase Ca2+ uptake in the absence of EGTA. These experiments suggest that one of the actions of calbindin-D9k is to stimulate the rate of extrusion of Ca2+ from the enterocyte by increasing Ca2+ transport by the Ca2+ pump.

Potassium Gradient

The transport pathways for chloride in basolateral membrane vesicles from the rabbit renal cortex were investigated. 36Cl uptake was stimulated by the presence of potassium in the uptake media compared with sodium or N-methyl-D-glucamine. In addition, potassium (86Rb) uptake was stimulated more by chloride than by nitrate or gluconate. Neither of these processes was further stimulated by potassium gradients plus valinomycin, suggesting the presence of an electrically neutral K-Cl cotransport system. A magnesium-induced chloride conductance was also found in the basolateral membrane vesicles. In the absence of magnesium, the chloride conductance was low; valinomycin and an inwardly directed potassium gradient did not stimulate 36Cl uptake, anthracene-9-carboxylic acid did not inhibit 36Cl uptake, and valinomycin did not stimulate chloride-dependent 86Rb uptake. However, in the presence of 1 mM magnesium, opposite results were obtained; valinomycin and an inwardly directed potassium gradient stimulated 36Cl uptake, anthracene-9-carboxylic acid inhibited 36Cl uptake, and valinomycin stimulated chloride-dependent 86Rb uptake. Therefore, an electrically neutral K-Cl cotransport and magnesium-induced chloride conductance were found in renal cortical basolateral membrane vesicles prepared from the rabbit renal cortex.

The Media

[2-14C]Urate uptake and efflux were studied in brush border and basolateral membrane vesicles of rat renal cortex that were exposed to 20 microM copper chloride. In the presence of inwardly directed NaCl gradients urate uptake was maintained at levels in excess of chemical equilibrium. Comparison of glucose and chloride uptakes revealed that equilibrium glucose uptake was not affected by copper, but chloride failed to reach equilibrium in copper-exposed vesicles. It is suggested that the persistence of an electrolyte gradient could provide a driving force to raise the concentration of free intravesicular urate above that in the media. Preincubation of vesicles with unlabeled urate failed to diminish uptake of added urate; rather, urate uptake was trans stimulated. Uptake of labeled urate was also significantly accelerated when an outward gradient for unlabeled urate was created. Pyrazinoic and oxonic acids also trans stimulated urate uptake. The demonstration of accelerated homeo- and heteroexchange diffusion indicates that transport is carrier mediated in both brush border and basolateral vesicles. Outwardly directed hydroxyl gradients failed to influence urate uptake in either the presence or absence of copper or NaCl. Thus, this carrier, which is active only in the presence of trace amounts of copper, is distinct from a urate/anion exchanger.
