    Notes: Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate by what transport mechanism does HCO 3 − cross the luminal membrane of pancreatic duct cells, and how do the cells respond to stimulation with dibytyryl cyclic AMP (db-cAMP). For this purpose a newly developed preparation of isolated and perfused intra-and interlobular ducts of rat pancreas was used. Responses of the epithelium to inhibitors and agonists were monitored by electrophysiological techniques. Addition of HCO 3 − /CO2 to the bath side of nonstimulated ducts depolarized the PD across the basolateral membrane (PDbl) by about 9mV, as also observed in a previous study [21]. This HCO 3 − effect was abolished by Cl− channel blockers or SITS infused into the lumen of the duct: i. e. 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB, 10−5 M) hyperpolarized PDbl by 8.2±1.6 mV (n=13); 3′,5-dichlorodiphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid (DCl-DPC, 10−5 M) hyperpolarized PDbl by 10.3±1.7 mV (n=10); and SITS hyperpolarized PDbl by 7.8±0.9 mV (n=4). Stimulation of the ducts with dbcAMP in the presence of bath HCO 3 − /CO2 resulted in depolarization of PDbl, the ductal lumen became more negative and the fractional resistance of the luminal membrane decreased. Together with forskolin (10−6 M), db-cAMP (10−4 M) caused a fast depolarization of PDbl by 33.8±2.5 mV (n=6). When db-cAMP (5×10−4 M) was given alone in the presence of bath HCO 3 − /CO2, PDbl depolarized by 25.3±4.2 mV (n=10). In the absence of exogenous HCO 3 − , db-cAMP also depolarized PDbl by 24.7±3.0 mV (n=10). The present data suggest that in the luminal membrane of pancreatic duct cells there is a Cl− conductance in parallel with a Cl−/HCO 3 − antiport. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP increases the Cl− conductance of the luminal membrane. Taking together our present results, and the recent data obtained for the basolateral membrane [21], a tentative model for pancreatic HCO 3 − transport is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract In order to study the mechanism of pancreatic HCO 3 − transport, a perfused preparation of isolated intra-and interlobular ducts (i.d. 20–40 μm) of rat pancreas was developed. Responses of the epithelium to changes in the bath ionic concentration and to addition of transport inhibitors was monitored by electrophysiological techniques. In this report some properties of the basolateral membrane of pancreatic duct cells are described. The transepithelial potential difference (PDte) in ducts bathed in HCO 3 − -free and HCO 3 − -containing solution was −0.8 and −2.6 mV, respectively. The equivalent short circuit current (Isc) under similar conditions was 26 and 50 μA·cm−2. The specific transepithelial resistance (Rte) was 88 Ωcm2. In control solutions the PD across the basolateral membrane (PDbl) was −63±1 mV (n=314). Ouabain (3 mmol/l) depolarized PDbl by 4.8±1.1 mV (n=6) within less than 10 s. When the bath K+ concentration was increased from 5 to 20 mmol/l, PDbl depolarized by 15.9±0.9 mV (n=50). The same K+ concentration step had no effect on PDbl if the ducts were exposed to Ba2+, a K+ channel blocker. Application of Ba2+ (1 mmol/l) alone depolarized PDbl by 26.4±1.4 mV (n=19), while another K+ channel blocker TEA+ (50 mmol/l) depolarized PDbl only by 7.7±2.0 mV (n=9). Addition of amiloride (1 mmol/l) to the bath caused 3–4 mV depolarization of PDbl. Furosemide (0.1 mmol/l) and SITS (0.1 mmol/l) had no effect on PDbl. An increase in the bath HCO 3 − concentration from 0 to 25 mmol/l produced fast and sustained depolarization of PDbl by 8.5±1.0 mV (n=149). It was investigated whether the effect of HCO 3 − was due to a Na++-dependent transport mechanism on the basolateral membrane, where the ion complex transferred into the cell would be positively charged, or whether it was due to decreased K+ conductance caused by lowered intracellular pH. Experiments showed that the HCO 3 − effect was present even when the bath Na+ concentration was reduced to a nominal value of 0 mmol/l. Similarly, the HCO 3 − effect remained unchanged after Ba2+ (5 mmol/l) was added to the bath. The results indicate that on the basolateral membrane of duct cells there is a ouabain sensitive (Na++K+)-ATPase, a Ba2+ sensitive K+ conductance and an amiloride sensitive Na+/H+ antiport. The HCO 3 − effect on PDbl is most likely due to rheogenic anion exit across the luminal membrane.
