• W2045490175 abstract "Supramaximal concentrations of cholecystokinin or its analogue caerulein have been shown to stimulate the proteolytic activation of zymogens within the pancreatic acinar cell and initiate acute pancreatitis. Previous studies suggest that a low pH compartment might be required for activation. To test this hypothesis, the effects of agents that modulate intracellular pH on caerulein-induced trypsin and chymotrypsin activation were studied. Pretreatment of pancreatic acini with the proto-ionophore monensin (10 μm) and the weak base chloroquine (40 μm) inhibited activation. Pre-incubation with the vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) inhibitors bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A also decreased activation in a concentration-dependent manner with 50% inhibition at ∼50 and 25 nm, respectively. Caerulein stimulation caused a time- and concentration-dependent translocation of soluble V-ATPase V1 subunits to a membrane fraction, a marker of V-ATPase activation. Carbachol also stimulated translocation at supramaximal concentrations. Elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ by thapsigargin was sufficient to induce translocation. Thus, stimulation of V-ATPase activity appears to be required for agonist-induced zymogen activation in the pancreatic acinar cell.

Thus, stimulation of V-ATPase activity appears to be required for agonist-induced zymogen activation in the pancreatic acinar cell. The premature activation of digestive zymogens in the pancreatic acinar cell plays a central role in the initiation of acute pancreatitis, but the mechanisms leading to activation remain unclear. Concentrations of cholecystokinin that are at least 10-fold greater than that generated by the physiologic response to a meal, a treatment known as hyperstimulation, cause zymogen activation and pancreatitis in vivo. Similarly, hyperstimulation of isolated pancreatic acini by cholecystokinin or its analogue caerulein causes zymogen activation in vitro (1Leach S.D. Modlin I.M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. J. Clin. Investig. 1991; 87: 362-366Crossref PubMed Scopus (200) Google Scholar, 2Saluja A. Saito I. Saluja M. Houlihan M.J. Powers R.E. Meldolesi J. Steer M. Am. J. Physiol. 1985; 249: G702-G710PubMed Google Scholar). Such activation appears to take place in unidentified membrane-bound organelles. Previous findings suggest that the generation of a low pH compartment in acinar cells is a feature of acute pancreatitis and may be required for zymogen activation. First, in both the caerulein hyperstimulation and the choline-deficient, ethionine-supplemented diet models of acute pancreatitis, acidic vacuoles are generated within acinar cells (3Niederau C. Grendell J.H. J. Clin. Investig. 1988; 81: 229-236Crossref PubMed Scopus (90) Google Scholar). Second, chloroquine, a weak base that non-selectively increases pH in acidic organelles, reduces the severity of pancreatitis in the caerulein hyperstimulation and choline-deficient, ethionine-supplemented diet models of pancreatitis (4Leach S.D. Bilchik A.J. Karapetian O. Gorelick F.S. Modlin I.M. Pancreas. 1993; 8: 64-69Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar, 5Guillaumes S. Blanco I. Villanueva A. Sans M.D. Clave P. Chabas A. Farre A. Lluis F. Pancreas. 1997; 14: 262-266Crossref PubMed Scopus (17) Google Scholar). Third, both proposed mechanisms of zymogen activation, trypsinogen autoactivation and trypsinogen activation by the lysosomal protease cathepsin B, proceed optimally at an acidic pH (6Kukor Z. Mayerle J. Kruger B. Toth M. Steed P.M. Halangk W. Lerch M.M. Sahin-Toth M. J. Biol. Chem. 2002; 277: 21389-21396Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (102) Google Scholar). Finally, chloroquine and monensin, agents that non-selectively increase intracellular pH, block the proteolytic conversion of procarboxypeptidase A1 to its active form in isolated acini following caerulein hyperstimulation (1Leach S.D. Modlin I.M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. J. Clin. Investig. 1991; 87: 362-366Crossref PubMed Scopus (200) Google Scholar). Although these studies support a role for acidification in zymogen activation, they provide no information on the mechanism. Because vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) 1The abbreviation used is: V-ATPase, vacuolar ATPase.1The abbreviation used is: V-ATPase, vacuolar ATPase. acidifies many intracellular compartments, it is a candidate for generating the low pH compartment observed during pathologic zymogen activation in the acinar cell. Furthermore, the soluble A and E subunits have been localized to the apical region of the pancreatic acinar cell; at least some of this immunoreactivity is associated with zymogen granules (7Roussa E. Alper S. Thevenod F. J. Histochem. Cytochem. 2001; 49: 463-474Crossref PubMed Scopus (47) Google Scholar). V-ATPase is a proton pump present in eukaryotic cells that establishes the acidic luminal pH (4.5–6.5) of organelles such as lysosomes, endosomes, and secretory granules (8Nishi T. Forgac M. Nat. Rev. Mol. Cell Biol. 2002; 3: 94-103Crossref PubMed Scopus (998) Google Scholar, 9Merzendorfer H. Graf R. Huss M. Harvey W.R. Wieczorek H. J. Exp. Biol. 1997; 200: 225-235Crossref PubMed Google Scholar). In contrast to F-ATPases, which function as ATP synthases, and P-ATPases, which function as cation exchangers, V-ATPases function exclusively as ATP-dependent proton pumps that transport protons from the cytosol into organelle lumina or the extracellular space. V-ATPases are multisubunit complexes composed of an integral membrane domain (Vo) and a soluble peripheral domain (V1). The soluble domain must assemble with the membrane-bound domain to activate the pump (10Smardon A.M. Tarsio M. Kane P.M. J. Biol. Chem. 2002; 277: 13831-13839Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (136) Google Scholar). In the present study, we demonstrate that caerulein stimulation of pancreatic acinar cells causes an increase in trypsin and chymotrypsin activity that is inhibited by agents that non-selectively increase intracellular pH, chloroquine, and monensin. Similarly, the specific V-ATPase inhibitors bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A significantly inhibit this caerulein-induced zymogen activation. Caerulein also causes a time- and concentration-dependent increase in the fraction of a soluble V-ATPase subunit associated with membrane-bound organelles in vitro. Furthermore, the muscarinic agonist carbachol and the elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ by thapsigargin also caused this V-ATPase translocation. The findings suggest that agonist stimulation results in the translocation of soluble V-ATPase subunits to membranes and the subsequent V-ATPase activation that is linked to the proteolytic activation of trypsin and chymotrypsin. Animals and Materials—Male Sprague-Dawley rats (80–120 g) were obtained from the Charles River Breeding Laboratories, Wilmington, MA. Caerulein was obtained from Amersham Biosciences; all other chemicals and supplies were obtained from Sigma unless otherwise noted. Acinar Experimental Protocol—Acini were prepared as described previously and incubated at 37 °C (15Lu Z. Karne S. Kolodecik T. Gorelick F.S. Am. J. Physiol. 2002; 282: G501-G507Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). Acini were pretreated for 30 min with the following agents that modulate intracellular pH: monensin (10 μm in 2.47 mm MeOH), chloroquine (40 μm), bafilomycin A1, and concanamycin A (100 nm in 1% Me2SO). The concentration-dependent effects of bafilomycin (10–50 nm in 0.05% Me2SO) and concanamycin A (1–50 nm in 0.05% Me2SO) on activation were examined. Following pretreatments, acini were treated with caerulein (100 nm) or carbachol (1 mm) for 2–60 min unless stated otherwise. For investigation of the role of cytosolic Ca2+, acini were treated with thapsigargin (10 μm) in Me2SO. Enzymatic Activity Assays—Samples (acini with medium) were stored at –80 °C prior to assay. Trypsin and chymotrypsin activities were assayed using fluorescent enzyme substrates and a microtiter plate reader as described previously (15Lu Z. Karne S. Kolodecik T. Gorelick F.S. Am. J. Physiol. 2002; 282: G501-G507Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). Enzyme activities were normalized to total amylase activity and expressed as relative fluorescence units per second per microgram of total amylase. Amylase activity in acinar homogenates was determined using the Phaebadas test kit (Pharmacia Diagnostic, Rochester, NY). Other Assays—Amylase secretion was expressed as percentage of amylase release following 60 min of caerulein treatment. To examine cell injury, lactate dehydrogenase secretion was assayed (Promega, Madison, WI) and expressed as percentage of release. Subcellular Fractionation and V-ATPase Detection—Assays for both trypsin and chymotrypsin activation were done prior to fractionation. If an increase in activation of >50% for trypsin or >200% for chymotrypsin was not seen for acini treated with caerulein (100 nm), the experiment was not used for studies examining V-ATPase translocation. For subcellular fractionation, acini were homogenized on ice in 300 μlof0.3 m sucrose, 10 mm HEPES, pH 7.4, with protease inhibitors (5 mm benzamidine and a protease inhibitor mixture, used as directed by Roche Diagnostics) and subjected to low speed centrifugation (500 g for 10 min at 4 °C) to remove nuclei and unbroken cells. The resulting postnuclear supernatant was subjected to high speed centrifugation (288,000 × g for 10 min) at 4 °C in a Beckman Optima TLX Ultracentrifuge to form a cytosolic and particulate fraction. The fractions were diluted in SDS sample buffer, heated for 5 min at 70 °C, and then electrophoresed on 12% polyacrylamide gels at 125 V and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Immobilon-P, Millipore, Billerica, MA) for immunoblot analysis. Membranes were incubated with polyclonal rabbit antibodies to the E subunit of V-ATPase (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) at a dilution of 1:200 (v/v) or with polyclonal rabbit antibodies to the E subunit or A subunit at a dilution of 1:1000 (v/v) (provided by Prof. Irene Schulz, Homburg, Germany and described in Ref. 7Roussa E. Alper S. Thevenod F. J. Histochem. Cytochem. 2001; 49: 463-474Crossref PubMed Scopus (47) Google Scholar) in a Western blocking reagent (5% Carnation milk powder (Nestle, Glendale, CA) and 0.05% Tween 20 in phosphate-buffered saline) at room temperature for 2 h. The membranes were then washed in Western blocking reagent and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG at 1:10000 (v/v) dilution in Western blocking reagent for 1 h. After washing, the V-ATPase protein was visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence (Pierce). Statistical Analysis—Data represent the means ± S.E. of independent experiments, with each experiment being performed in duplicate or triplicate. A paired Student's t test was used to determine significance. Effects of Subcellular pH Manipulation—Preincubation of isolated pancreatic acini with either monensin or chloroquine inhibited zymogen activation induced by caerulein hyperstimulation (Fig. 1). Lower levels of activation were also observed after physiologic caerulein stimulation (1 nm); this response was also inhibited by monensin and chloroquine (data not shown). To define the role of V-ATPase on zymogen activation, the effects of specific cell-permeant V-ATPase inhibitors were examined. V-ATPase Inhibitors Reduce Zymogen Activation in Vitro— In the nanomolar range, bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A are high affinity inhibitors of V-ATPases. In the micromolar range they inhibit P-type ATPases and ATP-binding cassette transporters (11Crider B.P. Xie X.S. Stone D.K. J. Biol. Chem. 1994; 269: 17379-17381Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar, 12Drose S. Altendorf K. J. Exp. Biol. 1997; 200: 1-8Crossref PubMed Google Scholar). Pretreatment with bafilomycin A1 (100 nm) or concanamycin A (100 nm) completely blocked caerulein-induced trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen activation in acini (Fig. 2). This inhibition by bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A was concentration-dependent and half-maximal at ∼50 and 25 nm, respectively. To exclude possible nonspecific or toxic effects of the inhibitors, the effects of these agents on acinar cell secretion and cell injury were examined. Bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A had no effect on caerulein-stimulated amylase secretion (Table I) and did not lead to an increase in lactate dehydrogenase release from acinar cells, a marker of cell injury (data not shown). To confirm that bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A were not inhibiting other classes of ATPase, the effects of P-ATPase inhibitors and ion exchangers on caerulein hyperstimulation-induced zymogen activation were examined. Isolated acini were pretreated with either the Na+-H+ exchange inhibitor amiloride, the Na+-K+ ATPase inhibitor ouabain, or the plasma membrane ATPase inhibitor vanadate. None of these compounds inhibited zymogen activation at 100 nm, the concentration at which V-ATPase inhibitors block hyperstimulatory caerulein-induced (100 nm) zymogen activation (Fig. 3). At high concentrations (10 μm), amiloride demonstrated a tendency to reduce zymogen activation.Table IVacuolar ATPase inhibitors do not affect amylase secretion from the acinar cellTreatmentPercent amylase secretionControl5 ± 1Caerulein (100 nm)18 ± 3Caerulein (100 nm) + bafilomycin A1 (100 nm)16 ± 2Caerulein (100 nm) + concanamycin A (100 nm)18 ± 1 Open table in a new tab Agonist Stimulation Causes Redistribution of Soluble V-ATPase Subunits—V-ATPase activity requires assembly of a soluble complex (V1) composed of six tightly associated cytosolic subunits with the membrane-bound domain (Vo). As an indirect measure of V-ATPase activation, we assayed the redistribution of V1 from the soluble fraction to membranes after caerulein stimulation. To detect the redistribution of the 31-kDa E protein in soluble V1 subunits to organelles, postnuclear supernatants from acini were separated by centrifugation (288,000 × g) into soluble and particular fractions and subjected to immunoblot analysis. Caerulein hyperstimulation (100 nm) causes a dramatic increase in the level of the membrane-associated V-ATPase E subunit (Fig. 4A). Similar results were obtained with two different antibodies to the E subunit. Antibodies to the soluble 71-kDa A subunit detected a faintly labeled band that also redistributed to the particulate fraction after caerulein hyperstimulation (data not shown). Treatment of acini with supraphysiologic concentrations (1 mm) of the muscarinic agonist, carbachol, which causes the same zymogen activation as observed with caerulein (13Schmid S. Modlin I.M. Stoch A. Tang L. Rhee S. Nathanson M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. Am. J. Physiol. 1998; 274: G734-G741Crossref PubMed Google Scholar), resulted in a similar ∼4-fold increase in the level of the E subunit associated with membranes (Fig. 4A). Agonist-dependent zymogen activation requires an increase in intracellular Ca2+ within the acinar cell. Treatment of acini with thapsigargin, an agent that causes an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ by effecting its release from stores in the endoplasmic reticulum, also resulted in translocation of the E subunit. The magnitude of this effect was similar to that observed with caerulein (Fig. 4B). Because glucose has been reported to modulate the translocation of the V1 subunits to membranes in yeast, its effects were in examined in acini (14Seol J.H. Shevchenko A. Shevchenko A. Deshaies R.J. Nat. Cell Biol. 2001; 3: 384-391Crossref PubMed Scopus (206) Google Scholar). However, E subunit translocation to membranes in response to caerulein hyperstimulation was the same in the presence or absence of glucose in the medium (data not shown). Translocation of the E subunit to membranes was concentration- and time-dependent (Figs. 5 and 6). Increasing concentrations of caerulein resulted in increased levels of the membrane-associated E subunit from ∼5 to10-fold after 15 min (Fig. 5B). This concentration-dependent response corresponds to that reported for caerulein-induced zymogen activation (1Leach S.D. Modlin I.M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. J. Clin. Investig. 1991; 87: 362-366Crossref PubMed Scopus (200) Google Scholar, 15Lu Z. Karne S. Kolodecik T. Gorelick F.S. Am. J. Physiol. 2002; 282: G501-G507Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). The E subunit rapidly translocated to membranes after caerulein hyperstimulation. Within 2 min of stimulation, the levels of the E subunit associated with membranes had increased slightly. After 10 min of caerulein hyperstimulation the levels of E subunit had doubled in the membrane fraction. Decreases in E subunit levels in the soluble fraction were often observed, but these changes exhibited much greater variability than those observed for its association with membranes (Fig. 6A). The levels of the E subunit associated with the membrane appeared to be maximal by 15 min and did not increase further after 1 h (not shown). Notably, translocation of the E-subunit (detected after 2 min) to membranes appears to precede zymogen activation (first detected at ∼10 min in our system) (1Leach S.D. Modlin I.M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. J. Clin. Investig. 1991; 87: 362-366Crossref PubMed Scopus (200) Google Scholar, 15Lu Z. Karne S. Kolodecik T. Gorelick F.S. Am. J. Physiol. 2002; 282: G501-G507Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). Although pretreatment with the V-ATPase inhibitors bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A decreased zymogen activation (Fig. 2), they had no effect on caerulein-induced E subunit translocation to membranes (Fig. 7).Fig. 6Caerulein stimulation causes a time-dependent translocation of soluble V-ATPase subunits to membranes in pancreatic acini.

Preliminary studies have suggested that this activation requires a low pH compartment (1Leach S.D. Modlin I.M. Scheele G.A. Gorelick F.S. J. Clin. Investig. 1991; 87: 362-366Crossref PubMed Scopus (200) Google Scholar, 3Niederau C. Grendell J.H. J. Clin. Investig. 1988; 81: 229-236Crossref PubMed Scopus (90) Google Scholar, 4Leach S.D. Bilchik A.J. Karapetian O. Gorelick F.S. Modlin I.M. Pancreas. 1993; 8: 64-69Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). Other reports have suggested that this activation may occur in a compartment related to lysosomes and/or within the secretory pathway (16Hofbauer B. Saluja A.K. Lerch M.M. Bhagat L. Bhatia M. Lee H.S. Frossard J.L. Adler G. Steer M.L. Am. J. Physiol. 1998; 275: G352-G362Crossref PubMed Google Scholar, 17Otani T. Chepilko S.M. Grendell J.H. Gorelick F.S. Am. J.

Because V-ATPases mediate the acidification of lysosomes, related organelles, and compartments within the secretory pathway, we examined their role in acinar cell zymogen activation. In this study, we show that agonist-induced zymogen activation is coupled to activation of a V-ATPase. Furthermore, we find that translocation of soluble V-ATPase subunits to membranes, an event that is essential for V-ATPase activation, can also be regulated by agonists. Several of our observations support the conclusion that V-ATPase has a causative role in zymogen activation. First, caerulein-induced activation of trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen in vitro is decreased by the specific, cell-permeant V-ATPase inhibitors bafilomycin A1 and concanamycin A. Second, the concentration dependence of caerulein-induced zymogen activation corresponds to that observed for translocation of the V1 subunit to membranes. Finally, translocation of the V1 subunit to the membrane appears to precede zymogen activation. Together, these findings support the hypothesis that a low pH compartment generated by V-ATPase regulates zymogen activation. The assembly of the V1 complex on the membrane-bound V0 complex is one mechanism by which V-ATPase activity is regulated. Previous studies have found that free V1 and Vo domains may be in dynamic equilibrium with the fully assembled, enzymatically active V1Vo holoenzyme. The presence of both fully assembled and free inactive V1 domains in a bovine kidney cell line has been demonstrated (19Myers M. Forgac M. J. Cell. Physiol. 1993; 156: 35-42Crossref PubMed Scopus (48) Google Scholar). A similar equilibrium was observed in the pancreas in which a small fraction of the V1 domain is associated with membranes in the basal state. Although we found a direct relationship between V1 translocation to membranes and the concentration dependence of zymogen activation with cholecystokinin, additional studies are required to provide direct evidence of V1 and Vo interactions. Our studies suggest that elevations in cytosolic Ca2+ are sufficient to cause translocation of the V1 domain. However, whether these increases result in activation of the V-ATPase needs to be examined. In yeast, V-ATPase assembly has been linked to glucose metabolism. Glucose deprivation for 5 min results in reversible detachment of V1 domains from Vo domains (20Kane P.M. Parra K.J. J. Exp. Biol. 2000; 203: 81-87Crossref PubMed Google Scholar). Glucose regulation of the assembly state of V-ATPase in yeast has been shown to be mediated by the RAVE complex, a heterotrimer of Rav1, Rav2, and Skp1 (10Smardon A.M. Tarsio M. Kane P.M. J. Biol. Chem. 2002; 277: 13831-13839Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (136) Google Scholar, 14Seol J.H. Shevchenko A. Shevchenko A. Deshaies R.J. Nat. Cell Biol. 2001; 3: 384-391Crossref PubMed Scopus (206) Google Scholar). In preliminary studies we could not find a role for glucose in V1 translocation in the acinar cell (data not shown). There are a number of mechanisms that might couple zymogen activation to H+ conductance by the V-ATPase activity. First, V-ATPase-dependent acidification of vesicles containing digestive zymogens may provide optimal pH conditions for proteolytic zymogen activation. In that context, cathepsin B appears to have a role in mediating trypsinogen activation (21Halangk W. Lerch M.M. Brandt-Nedelev B. Roth W. Ruthenbuerger M. Reinheckel T. Domschke W. Lippert H. Peters C. Deussing J. J. Clin. Investig. 2000; 106: 773-781Crossref PubMed Scopus (457) Google Scholar, 22Saluja A.K. Donovan E.A. Yamanaka K. Yamaguchi Y. Hofbauer B. Steer M.L. Gastroenterology. 1997; 113: 304-311Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (172) Google Scholar). Furthermore, in vitro studies have shown that cathepsin B-mediated activation of human cationic trypsinogen exhibits a pH optimum of 4 and does not occur above pH 5.2 (6Kukor Z. Mayerle J. Kruger B. Toth M. Steed P.M. Halangk W. Lerch M.M. Sahin-Toth M. J. Biol. Chem. 2002; 277: 21389-21396Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (102) Google Scholar). Trypsinogen autoactivation is also favored in an acidic milieu. Second, activation of the V-ATPase might couple proton movement to other cell signals that regulate zymogen processing. For example, V-ATPase has been linked to the regulation of cytosolic calcium signaling, an essential mechanism of zymogen activation. Thus, V-ATPase might modulate levels of cytosolic calcium by modulating the refilling of intracellular calcium pools or release from lysosomes (23Camello C. Pariente J.A. Salido G.M. Camello P.J. Curr. Biol. 2000; 10: 161-164Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (27) Google Scholar, 24Yamasaki M. Masgrau R. Morgan A.J. Churchill G.C. Patel S. Ashcroft S.J. Galione A. J. Biol. Chem. 2004; 279: 7234-7240Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (180) Google Scholar). Alternately, V-ATPase might drive a H+-Ca2+ exchanger that causes the accumulation of Ca2+ in vacuoles containing zymogens (25Okorokov L.A. Silva F.E. Okorokova Facanha A.L. FEBS Lett. 2001; 505: 321-324Crossref PubMed Scopus (19) Google Scholar). Finally, V-ATPase might mediate a trafficking event that is critical for zymogen activation. In that context, V-ATPase has been shown to play an essential role in trans-SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) complex formation and vesicular fusion (26Muller O. Bayer M.J. Peters C. Andersen J.S. Mann M. Mayer A. EMBO J. 2002; 21: 259-269Crossref PubMed Scopus (112) Google Scholar). This occurs through an interaction of the V0 subunits and is independent of V1 assembly with V0. However, the sensitivity of the zymogen activation to V-ATPase inhibitors and its correlation with V1 translocation makes it unlikely that V0-mediated vesicular fusion is mediating activation. In summary, we demonstrate that at supramaximal concentrations, agonist-induced zymogen activation requires V-ATPase activity. Translocation of a V1 subunit to membrane-bound organelles, a marker of V-ATPase activation, was observed in an in vitro model of acute pancreatitis. We propose that V-ATPase-mediated acidification of zymogen-containing organelles stimulates pathologic zymogen activation in the pancreatic acinar cell." @default.
