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.
