Abstract
Patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) exhibit a better prognosis than those with HPV-negative OPSCC. This study investigated the distinct molecular pathways that delineate HPV-negative from HPV-positive OPSCC to identify biologically relevant therapeutic targets. Bulk mRNA from 23 HPV-negative and 39 HPV-positive OPSCC tumors (n = 62) was sequenced to uncover the transcriptomic profiles. Differential expression followed by gene set enrichment analysis was performed to outline the top enriched biological process in the HPV-negative compared with HPV-positive entity. INHBA, the highest overexpressed gene in the HPV-negative tumor, was knocked down. Functional assays (migration, proliferation, cell death, stemness) were conducted to confirm the target's oncogenic role. Correlation analyses to reveal its impact on the tumor microenvironment were performed. We revealed that epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is the most enriched process in HPV-negative compared with HPV-positive OPSCC, with INHBA (inhibin beta A subunit) being the top upregulated gene. INHBA knockdown downregulated the expression of EMT transcription factors and attenuated migration, proliferation, stemness, and cell death resistance of OPSCC cells. We uncovered that INHBA associates with a pro-tumor microenvironment by negatively correlating with antitumor CD8+ T and B cells while positively correlating with pro-tumor M1 macrophages. We identified three miRNAs that are putatively involved in repressing INHBA expression. Our results indicate that the upregulation of INHBA is tumor-promoting. We propose INHBA as an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of INHBA-enriched tumors in patients with HPV-negative OPSCC to ameliorate prognosis. SIGNIFICANCE Patients with HPV-negative OPSCC have a poorer prognosis due to distinct molecular pathways. This study reveals significant transcriptomic differences between HPV-negative and HPV-positive OPSCC, identifying INHBA as a key upregulated gene in HPV-negative OPSCC's oncogenic pathways. INHBA is crucial in promoting EMT, cell proliferation, and an immunosuppressive tumor environment, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for HPV-negative OPSCC.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid (GC) signaling is essential for mounting a stress response, however, chronic stress or prolonged GC therapy downregulates the GC receptor (GR), leading to GC resistance. Regulatory mechanisms that refine this equilibrium are not well understood. Here, we identify seven lysine acetylation sites in the amino terminal domain of GR, with lysine 154 (Lys154) in the AF-1 region being the dominant acetyl-acceptor. GR-Lys154 acetylation is mediated by p300/CBP in the nucleus in an agonist-dependent manner and correlates with transcriptional activity. Deacetylation by NAD+-dependent SIRT1 facilitates dynamic regulation of this mark. Notably, agonist-binding to both wild-type GR and an acetylation-deficient mutant elicits similar short-term target gene expression. In contrast, upon extended treatment, the polyubiquitination of the acetylation-deficient GR mutant is impaired resulting in higher protein stability, increased chromatin association and prolonged transactivation. Taken together, reversible acetylation fine-tunes duration of the GC response by regulating proteasomal degradation of activated GR.

Abstract
In comparison to bulk sequencing or single cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics preserves the spatial information in tissue slices and can even be mapped to immunofluorescent stainings, allowing translation of gene expression information into their spatial context. This enables to unravel complex interactions of neighboring cells or to link cell morphology to transcriptome data. The 10× Genomics Visium platform offers to combine spatial transcriptomics with immunofluorescent staining of cryo-sectioned tissue slices. We applied this technique to fresh frozen mouse brain slices and developed a protocol that still protects RNA quality while improving buffers for immunofluorescent staining. We investigated the impact of various parameters, including fixation time and buffer composition, on RNA quality and antibody binding. Here, we propose an improved version of the manufacturer protocol, which does not alter RNA quality and facilitates the use of multiple additional antibodies that were not compatible with the manufacturer protocol before. Finally, we discuss the influence of various staining parameters, which contribute to the development of application specific staining protocols.

Abstract
Inference of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) can reveal cell state transitions from single-cell genomics data. However, obstacles to temporal inference from snapshot data are difficult to overcome. Single-nuclei multiomics data offer means to bridge this gap and derive temporal information from snapshot data using joint measurements of gene expression and chromatin accessibility in the same single cells. We developed popInfer to infer networks that characterize lineage-specific dynamic cell state transitions from joint gene expression and chromatin accessibility data. Benchmarking against alternative methods for GRN inference, we showed that popInfer achieves higher accuracy in the GRNs inferred. popInfer was applied to study single-cell multiomics data characterizing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and the transition from HSC to a multipotent progenitor cell state during murine hematopoiesis across age and dietary conditions. From networks predicted by popInfer, we discovered gene interactions controlling entry to/exit from HSC quiescence that are perturbed in response to diet or aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The immune peptidome of OPSCC has not previously been studied. Cancer-antigen specific vaccination may improve clinical outcome and efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors such as PD1/PD-L1 antibodies. METHODS Mapping of the OPSCC HLA ligandome was performed by mass spectrometry (MS) based analysis of naturally presented HLA ligands isolated from tumour tissue samples (n = 40) using immunoaffinity purification. The cohort included 22 HPV-positive (primarily HPV-16) and 18 HPV-negative samples. A benign reference dataset comprised of the HLA ligandomes of benign haematological and tissue datasets was used to identify tumour-associated antigens. RESULTS MS analysis led to the identification of naturally HLA-presented peptides in OPSCC tumour tissue. In total, 22,769 peptides from 9485 source proteins were detected on HLA class I. For HLA class II, 15,203 peptides from 4634 source proteins were discovered. By comparative profiling against the benign HLA ligandomic datasets, 29 OPSCC-associated HLA class I ligands covering 11 different HLA allotypes and nine HLA class II ligands were selected to create a peptide warehouse. CONCLUSION Tumour-associated peptides are HLA-presented on the cell surfaces of OPSCCs. The established warehouse of OPSCC-associated peptides can be used for downstream immunogenicity testing and peptide-based immunotherapy in (semi)personalised strategies.

Abstract
Sexual activity and/or reproduction are associated with a doubling of life expectancy in the long-lived rodent genus Fukomys. To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, we analyzed 636 RNA-seq samples across 15 tissues. This analysis suggests that changes in the regulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal stress axis play a key role regarding the extended life expectancy of reproductive vs. non-reproductive mole-rats. This is substantiated by a corpus of independent evidence. In accordance with previous studies, the up-regulation of the proteasome and so-called ‘anti-aging molecules’, for example, dehydroepiandrosterone, is linked with enhanced lifespan. On the other hand, several of our results are not consistent with knowledge about aging of short-lived model organisms. For example, we found the up-regulation of the insulin-like growth factor 1/growth hormone axis and several other anabolic processes to be compatible with a considerable lifespan prolongation. These contradictions question the extent to which findings from short-lived species can be transferred to longer-lived ones.

Abstract
Many aging-associated physiological changes are known to occur in short- and long-lived species with different trajectories. Emerging evidence suggests that numerous life history trait differences between species are based on interspecies variations in gene expression. Little information is available, however, about differences in transcriptome changes during aging between mammals with diverging lifespans. For this reason, we studied the transcriptomes of five tissue types and two age cohorts of two similarly sized rodent species with very different lifespans: laboratory rats (Rattus norvegicus) and giant mole-rats (Fukomys mechowii), with maximum lifespans of 3.8 and more than 20 years, respectively. Our findings show that giant mole-rats exhibit higher gene expression stability during aging than rats. Although well-known aging signatures were detected in all tissue types of rats, they were found in only one tissue type of giant mole-rats. Furthermore, many differentially expressed genes that were found in both species were regulated in opposite directions during aging. This suggests that expression changes which cause aging in short-lived species are counteracted in long-lived species. Taken together, we conclude that expression stability in giant mole rats (and potentially in African mole-rats in general) may be one key factor for their long and healthy life.

Abstract
Background Standard evolutionary theories of aging postulate that reduced extrinsic mortality leads to evolution of longevity. Clownfishes of the genus Amphiprion live in a symbiotic relationship with sea anemones that provide protection from predators. We performed a survey and identified at least two species with a lifespan of over 20 years. Given their small size and ease of captive reproduction, clownfish lend themselves as experimental models of exceptional longevity. To identify genetic correlates of exceptional longevity, we sequenced the transcriptomes of Amphiprion percula and A. clarkii and performed a scan for positively-selected genes (PSGs). Results The PSGs that we identified in the last common clownfish ancestor were compared with PSGs detected in long-lived mole rats and short-lived killifishes revealing convergent evolution in processes such as mitochondrial biogenesis. Among individual genes, the Mitochondrial Transcription Termination Factor 1 (MTERF1), was positively-selected in all three clades, whereas the Glutathione S-Transferase Kappa 1 (GSTK1) was under positive selection in two independent clades. For the latter, homology modelling strongly suggested that positive selection targeted enzymatically important residues. Conclusions These results indicate that specific pathways were recruited in independent lineages evolving an exceptionally extended or shortened lifespan and point to mito-nuclear balance as a key factor.

Abstract
Background Naked mole-rats (NMRs) are eusocially organized in colonies. Although breeders carry the additional metabolic load of reproduction, they are extremely long-lived and remain fertile throughout their lifespan. This phenomenon contrasts the disposable soma theory of aging stating that organisms can invest their resources either in somatic maintenance, enabling a longer lifespan, or in reproduction, at the cost of longevity. Here, we present a comparative transcriptome analysis of breeders vs. non-breeders of the eusocial, long-lived NMR vs. the polygynous and shorter-lived guinea pig (GP). Results Comparative transcriptome analysis of tissue samples from ten organs showed, in contrast to GPs, low levels of differentiation between sexes in adult NMR non-breeders. After transition into breeders, NMR transcriptomes are markedly sex-specific, show pronounced feedback signaling via gonadal steroids, and have similarities to reproductive phenotypes in African cichlid fish, which also exhibit social status changes between dominant and subordinate phenotypes. Further, NMRs show functional enrichment of status-related expression differences associated with aging. Lipid metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation—molecular networks known to be linked to aging—were identified among most affected gene sets. Remarkably and in contrast to GPs, transcriptome patterns associated with longevity are reinforced in NMR breeders. Conclusion Our results provide comprehensive and unbiased molecular insights into interspecies differences between NMRs and GPs, both in sexual maturation and in the impact of reproduction on longevity. We present molecular evidence that sexual maturation in NMRs is socially suppressed. In agreement with evolutionary theories of aging in eusocial organisms, we have identified transcriptome patterns in NMR breeders that—in contrast to the disposable soma theory of aging—may slow down aging rates and potentially contribute to their exceptional long life- and healthspan.

Abstract
The genetics of lifespan determination is poorly understood. Most research has been done on short-lived animals and it is unclear if these insights can be transferred to long-lived mammals like humans. Some African mole-rats (Bathyergidae) have life expectancies that are multiple times higher than similar sized and phylogenetically closely related rodents. To gain new insights into genetic mechanisms determining mammalian lifespans, we obtained genomic and transcriptomic data from 17 rodent species and scanned eleven evolutionary branches associated with the evolution of enhanced longevity for positively selected genes (PSGs). Indicating relevance for aging, the set of 250 identified PSGs showed in liver of long-lived naked mole-rats and short-lived rats an expression pattern that fits the antagonistic pleiotropy theory of aging. Moreover, we found the PSGs to be enriched for genes known to be related to aging. Among these enrichments were “cellular respiration” and “metal ion homeostasis”, as well as functional terms associated with processes regulated by the mTOR pathway: translation, autophagy and inflammation. Remarkably, among PSGs are RHEB, a regulator of mTOR, and IGF1, both central components of aging-relevant pathways, as well as genes yet unknown to be aging-associated but representing convincing functional candidates, e.g. RHEBL1, AMHR2, PSMG1 and AGER. Exemplary protein homology modeling suggests functional consequences for amino acid changes under positive selection. Therefore, we conclude that our results provide a meaningful resource for follow-up studies to mechanistically link identified genes and amino acids under positive selection to aging and lifespan determination. As an adaption to different environments rodents have evolved a wide range of lifespans. While most rodents are short-lived, along several phylogenetic branches long-lived species evolved. This provided us a unique opportunity to search for genes that are associated with enhanced longevity in mammals. Towards this, we computationally compared gene sequences of exceptional long-lived rodent species (like the naked mole-rat and chinchilla) and short-lived rodents (like rat and mouse) and identified those which evolved exceptional fast. As natural selection acts in parallel on a multitude of phenotypes, only a subset of the identified genes is probably associated with enhanced longevity. Applying several tests, we ensured that the dataset is related to aging. We conclude that lifespan extension in rodents can be attributed to changes in their defense against free radicals, iron homeostasis as well as cellular respiration and translation as central parts of the growth program. This confirms aging theories assuming a tradeoff between fast growth and long lifespan. Moreover, our study offers a meaningful resource of targets, i.e. genes and specific positions therein, for functional follow-up studies on their potential roles in the determination of lifespan–regardless whether they are currently known to be aging-related or not.

Abstract
Many comparative genomics studies aim to find the genetic basis of species-specific phenotypic traits. A prevailing strategy is to search genome-wide for genes that evolved under positive selection based on the non-synonymous to synonymous substitution ratio. However, incongruent results largely due to high false positive rates indicate the need for standardization of quality criteria and software tools. Main challenges are the ortholog and isoform assignment, the high sensitivity of the statistical models to alignment errors and the imperative to parallelize large parts of the software. We developed the software tool PosiGene that (i) detects positively selected genes (PSGs) on genome-scale, (ii) allows analysis of specific evolutionary branches, (iii) can be used in arbitrary species contexts and (iv) offers visualization of the results for further manual validation and biological interpretation. We exemplify PosiGene's performance using simulated and real data. In the simulated data approach, we determined a false positive rate <1%. With real data, we found that 68.4% of the PSGs detected by PosiGene, were shared by at least one previous study that used the same set of species. PosiGene is a user-friendly, reliable tool for reproducible genome-wide identification of PSGs and freely available at https://github.com/gengit/PosiGene.

Abstract
Tissue-, sex-, and age-specific epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation are largely unknown. Changes in DNA methylation of the glucocorticoid receptor gene (NR3C1) and imprinting control region (ICR) of IGF2 and H19 genes during the lifespan are particularly interesting since these genes are susceptible to epigenetic modifications by prenatal stress or malnutrition. They are important regulators of development and aging. Methylation changes of NR3C1 affect glucocorticoid receptor expression, which is associated with stress sensitivity and stress-related diseases predominantly occurring during aging. Methylation changes of IGF2/H19 affect growth trajectory and nutrient use with risk of metabolic syndrome. Using a locus-specific approach, we characterized DNA methylation patterns of different Nr3c1 promoters and Igf2/H19 ICR in seven tissues of rats at 3, 9, and 24 mo of age. We found a complex pattern of locus-, tissue-, sex-, and age-specific DNA methylation. Tissue-specific methylation was most prominent at the shores of the Nr3c1 CpG island (CGI). Sex-specific differences in methylation peaked at 9 mo. During aging, Nr3c1 predominantly displayed hypomethylation mainly in females and at shores, whereas hypermethylation occurred within the CGI. Igf2/H19 ICR exhibited age-related hypomethylation occurring mainly in males. Methylation patterns of Nr3c1 in the skin correlated with those in the cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus. Skin may serve as proxy for methylation changes in central parts of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and hence for vulnerability to stress- and age-associated diseases. Thus, we provide in-depth insight into the complex DNA methylation changes of rat Nr3c1 and Igf2/H19 during aging that are tissue and sex specific.

Abstract
The current molecular understanding of the aging process derives almost exclusively from the study of random or targeted single‐gene mutations in highly inbred laboratory species, mostly invertebrates. Little information is available as to the genetic mechanisms responsible for natural lifespan variation and the evolution of lifespan, especially in vertebrates. Here, we investigated the pattern of positive selection in annual (i.e., short‐lived) and nonannual (i.e., longer‐lived) African killifishes to identify a genomic substrate for evolution of annual life history (and reduced lifespan). We identified genes under positive selection in all steps of mitochondrial biogenesis: mitochondrial (mt) DNA replication, transcription from mt promoters, processing and stabilization of mt RNAs, mt translation, assembly of respiratory chain complexes, and electron transport chain. Signs of paralleled evolution (i.e., evolution in more than one branch of Nothobranchius phylogeny) are observed in four out of five steps. Moreover, some genes under positive selection in Nothobranchius are under positive selection also in long‐lived mammals such as bats and mole‐rats. Complexes of the respiratory chain are formed in a coordinates multistep process where nuclearly and mitochondrially encoded components are assembled and inserted into the inner mitochondrial membrane. The coordination of this process is named mitonuclear balance, and experimental manipulations of mitonuclear balance can increase longevity of laboratory species. Our data strongly indicate that these genes are also casually linked to evolution lifespan in vertebrates.

Abstract
Background Advances in second-generation sequencing of RNA made a near-complete characterization of transcriptomes affordable. However, the reconstruction of full-length mRNAs via de novo RNA-seq assembly is still difficult due to the complexity of eukaryote transcriptomes with highly similar paralogs and multiple alternative splice variants. Here, we present FRAMA, a genome-independent annotation tool for de novo mRNA assemblies that addresses several post-assembly tasks, such as reduction of contig redundancy, ortholog assignment, correction of misassembled transcripts, scaffolding of fragmented transcripts and coding sequence identification. Results We applied FRAMA to assemble and annotate the transcriptome of the naked mole-rat and assess the quality of the obtained compilation of transcripts with the aid of publicy available naked mole-rat gene annotations. Based on a de novo transcriptome assembly (Trinity), FRAMA annotated 21,984 naked mole-rat mRNAs (12,100 full-length CDSs), corresponding to 16,887 genes. The scaffolding of 3488 genes increased the median sequence information 1.27-fold. In total, FRAMA detected and corrected 4774 misassembled genes, which were predominantly caused by fusion of genes. A comparison with three different sources of naked mole-rat transcripts reveals that FRAMA’s gene models are better supported by RNA-seq data than any other transcript set. Further, our results demonstrate the competitiveness of FRAMA to state of the art genome-based transcript reconstruction approaches. Conclusion FRAMA realizes the de novo construction of a low-redundant transcript catalog for eukaryotes, including the extension and refinement of transcripts. Thereby, results delivered by FRAMA provide the basis for comprehensive downstream analyses like gene expression studies or comparative transcriptomics.

Ansell's mole-rats (Fukomys anselli) are subterranean, long-lived rodents, which live in eusocial families, where the maximum lifespan of breeders is twice as long as that of non-breeders. Their metabolic rate is significantly lower than expected based on allometry, and their retinae show a high density of S-cone opsins. Both features may indicate naturally low thyroid hormone levels. In the present study, we sequenced several major components of the thyroid hormone pathways and analyzed free and total thyroxine and triiodothyronine in serum samples of breeding and non-breeding F. anselli to examine whether a) their thyroid hormone system shows any peculiarities on the genetic level, b) these animals have lower hormone levels compared to euthyroid rodents (rats and guinea pigs), and c) reproductive status, lifespan and free hormone levels are correlated. Genetic analyses confirmed that Ansell's mole-rats have a conserved thyroid hormone system as known from other mammalian species. Interspecific comparisons revealed that free thyroxine levels of F. anselli were about ten times lower than of guinea pigs and rats, whereas the free triiodothyronine levels, the main biologically active form, did not differ significantly amongst species. The resulting fT4:fT3 ratio is unusual for a mammal and potentially represents a case of natural hypothyroxinemia. Comparisons with total thyroxine levels suggest that mole-rats seem to possess two distinct mechanisms that work hand in hand to downregulate fT4 levels reliably. We could not find any correlation between free hormone levels and reproductive status, gender or weight. Free thyroxine may slightly increase with age, based on sub-significant evidence. Hence, thyroid hormones do not seem to explain the different ageing rates of breeders and non-breeders. Further research is required to investigate the regulatory mechanisms responsible for the unusual proportion of free thyroxine and free triiodothyronine.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) causes inflammation and cell injury as a result of activating innate immune signaling. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has a key role in mediating kidney damages during IRI, but the downstream signaling pathway(s) stimulating apoptosis remains debated. In this study we show that TLR4 mediates MyD88-dependent activation of TNF receptor-associated factor 2, apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), and Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAP kinases in ischemic-reperfused kidneys and posthypoxic renal tubule epithelial cells (RTECs). Hypoxia stimulated the expression of the endoplasmic-resident gp96, which co-immunoprecipitated TLR4, whereas silencing gp96 mRNA expression impaired hypoxia-induced apoptosis in TLR4-expressing RTECs. NAD(P)H oxidase 4 (NOX4) was shown to interact with TLR4 and to be required in lipopolysaccharide-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). IRI stimulated the expression of a 28-kDa NOX4 spliced isoform abundantly expressed in wild-type RTECs, which co-immunoprecipitated with TLR4, but not with gp96 in TLR4-deficient RTECs. Silencing NOX4 mRNA expression impaired hypoxia-induced activation of ASK1 and both JNK and p38, leading to the inhibition of ROS production and apoptosis in posthypoxic TLR4-expressing RTECs. These findings show that, concomitantly to the activation of p38, the gp96/TLR4 interaction is required for activation of ASK1/JNK signaling in posthypoxic mouse RTECs, and that the 28-kDa NOX4 has a key role in TLR4-mediated apoptosis during renal IRI.

Abstract
Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin (ET) is a potent pore-forming cytotoxin causing fatal enterotoxemia in livestock. ET accumulates in brain and kidney, particularly in the renal distal-collecting ducts. ET binds and oligomerizes in detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs) microdomains and causes cell death. However, the causal linkage between membrane permeabilization and cell death is not clear. Here, we show that ET binds and forms 220-kDa insoluble complexes in plasma membrane DRMs of renal mpkCCD(cl4) collecting duct cells. Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C did not impair binding or the formation of ET complexes, suggesting that the receptor for ET is not GPI anchored. ET induced a dose-dependent fall in the transepithelial resistance and potential in confluent cells grown on filters, transiently stimulated Na+ absorption, and induced an inward ionic current and a sustained rise in [Ca2+]i. ET also induced rapid depletion of cellular ATP, and stimulated the AMP-activated protein kinase, a metabolic-sensing Ser/Thr kinase. ET also induced mitochondrial membrane permeabilization and mitochondrial-nuclear translocation of apoptosis-inducing factor, a potent caspase-independent cell death effector. Finally, ET induced cell necrosis characterized by a marked reduction in nucleus size without DNA fragmentation. DRM disruption by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin impaired ET oligomerization, and significantly reduced the influx of Na+ and [Ca2+]i, but did not impair ATP depletion and cell death caused by the toxin. These findings indicate that ET causes rapid necrosis of renal collecting duct cells and establish that ATP depletion-mediated cell death is not strictly correlated with the plasma membrane permeabilization and ion diffusion caused by the toxin.

Abstract
This review summarizes the strategy of cellular immortalization based on the principle of targeted oncogenesis in transgenic mice, used to establish models of transimmortalized renal proximal tubule cells, referred to as PKSV-PCT and PKSV-PR-cells, and collecting duct principal cells, referred to as mpkCCD(cl4) cells. These cell lines have maintained for long-term passages the main biochemical and functional properties of the parental cells from which they were derived. Proximal tubule PKSV-PCT and PKSV-PR cells have been proved to be suitable cell systems for toxicological and pharmacological studies. They also permitted the establishment of a model of multidrug-resistant (MDR) renal epithelial tubule cells, PKSV-PR(col50), which have served for the study of both MDR-dependent extrusion of chemotherapeutic drugs and inappropriate accumulation of weak base anthracyclines in intracellular acidic organelles. The novel collecting duct cell line mpkCCD(cl4), which has maintained the characteristics of tight epithelial cells, in particular Na(+) absorption stimulated by aldosterone, has been extensively used for pharmacological studies related to the regulation of ion transport. These cells have permitted the identification of several aldosterone-induced proteins playing a key role in the regulation of Na(+) absorption mediated by the epithelial Na(+) channel ENaC. Recent studies have also provided evidence that these cell lines represent valuable cell systems for the study of host-pathogen interactions and the analysis of the role of renal tubule epithelial cells in the induction of inflammatory response caused by uropathogens that may lead to severe renal damage.

Abstract
The fine control of NaCl absorption regulated by hormones takes place in the distal nephron of the kidney. In collecting duct principal cells, the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) mediates the apical entry of Na(+), which is extruded by the basolateral Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. Simian virus 40-transformed and "transimmortalized" collecting duct cell lines, derived from transgenic mice carrying a constitutive, conditionally, or tissue-specific promoter-regulated large T antigen, have been proven to be valuable tools for studying the mechanisms controlling the cell surface expression and trafficking of ENaC and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. These cell lines have made it possible to identify sets of aldosterone- and vasopressin-stimulated proteins, and have provided new insights into the concerted mechanism of action of serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (Sgk1), ubiquitin ligase Nedd4-2 (neural precursor cell-expressed, developmentally down-regulated protein 4-2), and 14-3-3 regulatory proteins in modulating ENaC-mediated Na(+) currents. Epidermal growth factor and induced leucine zipper protein have also been shown to repress and stimulate ENaC-dependent Na(+) absorption, respectively, by activating or repressing the mitogen-activated protein kinase externally regulated kinase(1/2). Overall, these findings have provided evidence suggesting that multiple pathways are involved in regulating NaCl absorption in the distal nephron.

Abstract
Aldosterone controls extracellular volume and blood pressure by regulating Na+ reabsorption, in particular by epithelia of the distal nephron. A main regulatory site of this transcellular transport is the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) that mediates luminal Na+ influx. The Na,K-ATPase (Na+ pump) that coordinately extrudes Na+ across the basolateral membrane is known to be regulated by short term aldosterone as well. We now show that in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) from adrenalectomized rats, the increase in Na,K-ATPase activity (approximately 3-fold in 3 h), induced by a single aldosterone injection, can be fully accounted by the increase in Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression (+ 497 +/- 35%). The short term aldosterone action was further investigated in cultured mouse collecting duct principal cells mpkCCD(cl4). Within 2 h, maximal Na,K-ATPase function assessed by Na+ pump current (I(p)) measurements and Na,K-ATPase cell surface expression were increased by 20-50%. Aldosterone did not modify the Na+ dependence of the Na+ pumps and induced transcription- and translation-dependent actions on pump surface expression and current independently of ENaC-mediated Na+ influx. In summary, short term aldosterone directly increases the cell surface expression of pre-existing Na+ pumps in kidney CCD target cells. Thus, aldosterone controls Na+ reabsorption in the short term not only by regulating the apical cell surface expression of ENaC (Loffing, J., Zecevic, M., Feraille, E., Kaissling, B., Asher, C., Rossier, B. C., Firestone, G. L., Pearce, D., and Verrey, F. (2001) Am. J. Physiol. 280, F675-F682) but also by coordinately acting on the basolateral cell surface expression of the Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the renal cortical collecting duct (CCD) has not yet been fully elucidated. Here, we investigated the effects of deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) and isoproterenol (ISO) on NaCl transport in primary cultured CCDs microdissected from normal [CFTR(+/+)] and CFTR-knockout [CFTR(-/-)] mice. dDAVP stimulated the benzamyl amiloride (BAm)-sensitive transport of Na(+) assessed by the short-circuit current (I(sc)) method in both CFTR(+/+) and CFTR(-/-) CCDs to a very similar degree. Apical addition of 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate (NPPB) or glibenclamide partially inhibited the rise in I(sc) induced by dDAVP and ISO in BAm-treated CFTR(+/+) CCDs, whereas dDAVP, ISO, and NPPB did not alter I(sc) in BAm-treated CFTR(-/-) CCDs. dDAVP stimulated the apical-to-basal flux and, to a lesser extent, the basal-to-apical flux of (36)Cl(-) in CFTR(+/+) CCDs. dDAVP also increased the apical-to-basal (36)Cl(-) flux in CFTR(-/-) CCDs but not the basal-to-apical (36)Cl(-) flux. These results demonstrate that CFTR mediates the cAMP-stimulated component of secreted Cl(-) in mouse CCD.

Abstract
Cyclosporine (CsA) reduces nitric oxide (NO) production in medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) cells. We postulated that CsA affected NO secretion in a vectorial manner in polarized renal epithelial cells. The experiments were performed in a model of mTAL subcultured cells. The expression of iNOS in mTAL cells was confirmed by RT-PCR. The cells were grown on a non-permeable filter. Nitrite was measured by the modified Griess method. Transepithelial resistance was measured to ensure the integrity of the tight junction. CsA (100 ng/ml) reduced NO production by 22% in mTAL cells. The inhibitory effect was limited to the basolateral side (control: 165 +/- 11; plus CsA: 93 +/- 17 nM/10(6) cells, P < 0.001) without affecting apical NO secretion. The transepithelial resistance through the epithelial monolayer remained unchanged in CsA-treated cells. CsA reduced basolateral NO secretion without affecting apical secretion. The results suggest that CsA might affect intrarenal hemodynamics at the peritubular level.

Abstract
We have isolated and characterised the promoter of the mouse Scnn1a (alpha ENaC) gene. Using transient transfections of serial deletion mutants into Scnn1a-expressing cells, we demonstrate that 1.56 kb of 5' upstream sequence is required for cell-specific expression and corticosteroid-mediated regulation. These 5' sequences are not sufficient to drive expression of a lacZ reporter gene or a rat Scnn1a cDNA in transgenic mice, where they failed to rescue Scnn1a deficiency.

Abstract
Aldosterone and vasopressin are responsible for the final adjustment of sodium and water reabsorption in the kidney. In principal cells of the kidney cortical collecting duct (CCD), the integral response to aldosterone and the long-term functional effects of vasopressin depend on transcription. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome of a highly differentiated mouse clonal CCD principal cell line (mpkCCD(cl4)) and the changes in the transcriptome induced by aldosterone and vasopressin. Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was performed on untreated cells and on cells treated with either aldosterone or vasopressin for 4 h. The transcriptomes in these three experimental conditions were determined by sequencing 169,721 transcript tags from the corresponding SAGE libraries. Limiting the analysis to tags that occurred twice or more in the data set, 14,654 different transcripts were identified, 3,642 of which do not match known mouse sequences. Statistical comparison (at P < 0.05 level) of the three SAGE libraries revealed 34 AITs (aldosterone-induced transcripts), 29 ARTs (aldosterone-repressed transcripts), 48 VITs (vasopressin-induced transcripts) and 11 VRTs (vasopressin-repressed transcripts). A selection of the differentially-expressed, hormone-specific transcripts (5 VITs, 2 AITs and 1 ART) has been validated in the mpkCCD(cl4) cell line either by Northern blot hybridization or reverse transcription-PCR. The hepatocyte nuclear transcription factor HNF-3-alpha (VIT39), the receptor activity modifying protein RAMP3 (VIT48), and the glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper protein (GILZ) (AIT28) are candidate proteins playing a role in physiological responses of this cell line to vasopressin and aldosterone.

Abstract
ClC-5 is the Cl- channel that is mutated in Dent's disease, an X-chromosome-linked disease characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, and kidney stones. It is predominantly expressed in endocytically active renal proximal cells. We investigated whether this Cl- channel could also be expressed in intestinal tissues that have endocytotic machinery. ClC-5 mRNA was detected in the rat duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and colon. Western blot analyses revealed the presence of the 83-kDa ClC-5 protein in these tissues. Indirect immunofluorescence studies showed that ClC-5 was mainly concentrated in the cytoplasm above the nuclei of enterocytes and colon cells. ClC-5 partially colocalized with the transcytosed polymeric immunoglobulin receptor but was not detectable together with the brush-border-anchored sucrase isomaltase. A subfractionation of vesicles obtained by differential centrifugation showed that ClC-5 is associated with the vacuolar 70-kDa H+-ATPase and the small GTPases rab4 and rab5a, two markers of early endosomes. Thus these results indicate that ClC-5 is present in the small intestine and colon of rats and suggest that it plays a role in the endocytotic pathways of intestinal cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The fine control of NaCl absorption takes place in the distal parts of the renal tubule, but the regulation of Cl(-) transport in this region has not been fully elucidated. We have analysed the effects of dD-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) on Cl(-) fluxes in cultured mouse distal convoluted tubule (mpkDCT), cortical collecting duct (mpkCCD) and inner medullary collecting duct (mpkIMCD) cell lines. METHODS RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (ENaC) and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mRNAs and protein in cultured mpkDCT, mpkCCD and mpkIMCD cells. Cl(-) fluxes were analysed by measuring the short-circuit current (I(sc)) and bidirectional (36)Cl(-) fluxes on confluent cells grown on filters. RESULTS All three cell lines expressed ENaC and CFTR and had I(sc) stimulated by dDAVP. The rise in I(sc) caused by dDAVP (10(-8) M) was inhibited by amiloride, and to a lesser extent by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB) in all three cell lines. The dDAVP-dependent I(sc) measured under apical Na(+)-free condition was reduced by Cl(-) channel blockers with a profile (NPPB>glibenclamide>DIDS), similar to that for rat CFTR. dDAVP stimulated the apical-to-basal (36)Cl(-) flux and to a lesser extent the basal-to-apical (36)Cl(-) flux under open-circuit condition in all three cultured cell lines. Adding NPPB to the apical side reduced the basal-to-apical (36)Cl(-) flux but not the opposite (36)Cl(-) flux from dDAVP-treated cells. CONCLUSION These results indicate that dDAVP stimulates the bi-directional flux of Cl(-), resulting in net Cl(-)absorption, in these cultured mouse distal and collecting duct cells. I(sc) experiments also suggest the presence of a minor component of electrogenic Cl(-) secretion, possibly mediated by CFTR.

Abstract
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) stimulates the transport of Na(+) and Na,K-ATPase activity in the renal cortical collecting duct (CCD). The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism whereby cAMP stimulates the Na,K-ATPase activity in microdissected rat CCDs and cultured mouse mpkCCD(c14) collecting duct cells. db-cAMP (10(-3) M) stimulated by 2-fold the activity of Na,K-ATPase from rat CCDs as well as the ouabain-sensitive component of (86)Rb(+) uptake by rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured mouse CCD cells (1.5-fold). Pretreatment of rat CCDs with saponin increased the total Na,K-ATPase activity without further stimulation by db-cAMP. Western blotting performed after a biotinylation procedure revealed that db-cAMP increased the amount of Na,K-ATPase at the cell surface in both intact rat CCDs (1.7-fold) and cultured cells (1.3-fold), and that this increase was not related to changes in Na,K-ATPase internalization. Brefeldin A and low temperature (20 degrees C) prevented both the db-cAMP-dependent increase in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase in both intact rat CCDs and cultured cells. Pretreatment with the intracellular Ca(2+) chelator bis-(o-aminophenoxy)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid also blunted the increment in cell surface expression and activity of Na,K-ATPase caused by db-cAMP. In conclusion, these results strongly suggest that the cAMP-dependent stimulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in CCD results from the translocation of active pump units from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Liddle's syndrome is a form of inherited hypertension linked to mutations in the genes encoding the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC). These mutations alter or delete PY motifs involved in protein-protein interactions with a ubiquitin-protein ligase, Nedd4. Here we show that Na+ transporting cells, derived from mouse cortical collecting duct, express two Nedd4 proteins with different structural organization and characteristics of ENaC regulation: 1) the classical Nedd4 (herein referred to as Nedd4-1) containing one amino-terminal C2, three WW, and one HECT-ubiquitin protein ligase domain and 2) a novel Nedd4 protein (Nedd4-2), homologous to Xenopus Nedd4 and comprising four WW, one HECT, yet lacking a C2 domain. Nedd4-2, but not Nedd4-1, inhibits ENaC activity when coexpressed in Xenopus oocytes and this property correlates with the ability to bind to ENaC, as only Nedd4-2 coimmunoprecipitates with ENaC. Furthermore, this interaction depends on the presence of at least one PY motif in the ENaC complex and on WW domains 3 and 4 in Nedd4-2. Thus, these results suggest that the novel suppressor protein Nedd4-2 is the regulator of ENaC and hence a potential susceptibility gene for arterial hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cyclosporine (CsA) has been shown to alter the activity of plasma membrane transporters in kidney epithelial cells. In this study, we have investigated the effects of CsA on Na+,K+-ATPase and Na+-K+-Cl- cotransport activities in cultured cells derived from microdissected mouse medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) cells. METHODS Experiments were carried out on subcultured confluent mouse TAL cells. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction experiments showed that they expressed the mNKCC2 electroneutral Na+-K+-Cl- cotransporter and ROM-K1 and ROMK2 potassium channel mRNA. Western blotting also revealed the presence of the 40 kD ROMK protein using an anti-ROMK antibody. The effect of CsA (100 ng/mL) on ion transport was assessed by measuring the influx and efflux of rubidium (86Rb+) and 36Cl-, used as tracers of K+ and Cl- movements, on cells grown on Petri dishes or permeable filters. RESULTS CsA inhibited by 38% the ouabain-sensitive component of 86Rb+ influx mediated by the Na+,K+-ATPase pumps. CsA also increased by 38% the ouabain-resistant furosemide-sensitive component (Or-Fs) of 86Rb+ influx, reflecting the Na+-K+-Cl- cotransport activity and stimulated the basolateral efflux of 36Cl- from mTAL cells grown on filters. The CsA-stimulated basal efflux of Cl- was prevented by the basal addition of the Cl- channel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoate (NPPB, 10-4 mol/L). Apical addition of the K+ channel blocking agent Ba2+ (10-4 mol/L) partially prevented the CsA-stimulated basal efflux of Cl-. Adding Ba2+ to the luminal side of cells grown on Petri dishes also prevented the rise in apical 86Rb+ efflux and the increased Or-Fs component of 86Rb+ influx caused by CsA. CONCLUSION These results indicated that CsA may stimulate the Na+-K+-Cl- cotransport activity and also suggested that this immunosuppressive agent may interfere in the recycling of apical K+ in this model of cultured mouse TAL cells.

Abstract
The development of transgenic mice carrying the simian virus-40 large T antigen gene or the temperature-sensitive simian virus-40 large T antigen gene, either alone or placed under the control of the 5'-regulatory regions of tissue-specific or ubiquitous genes, has permitted the production of differentiated, polarized kidney epithelial cells. This review covers the immortalized cell lines issued from the various parts of the renal tubule and, in particular, the recently established collecting duct cell lines that have been used as ex-vivo cell models to analyze the regulation of ion transport processes by hormones.

Abstract
The multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) that is involved in drug resistance and the export of glutathione-conjugated substrates may not have the same epithelial cell membrane distribution as the P-glycoprotein encoded by the MDR gene. Because intestinal and kidney epithelial cells are polarized cells endowed distinct secreting and absorptive ion and protein transport capacities, we investigated the tissue and cell distribution of MRP in adult mouse small intestine, colon, and kidney by immunohistochemistry. Western blot analyses revealed the 190-kD MRP protein in these tissues. MRP was found in the basolateral membranes of intestinal crypt cells, mainly Paneth cells, but not in differentiated enterocytes. All the cells lining the crypt-villous axis of the colon wall contained MRP. MRP was found in the glomeruli, ascending limb cells, and basolateral membranes of the distal and collecting tubule cells of the kidney but not in proximal tubule cells. Cultured mouse intestinal m-ICcl2 cells and renal distal mpkDCT cells that have retained the features typical of intestinal crypt and renal distal epithelial cells, respectively, also possess MRP in their basolateral membranes. The patterns of subcellular and cellular distribution indicate that MRP may have a specific role in the basolateral transport of endogenous compounds in Paneth, renal distal, and collecting tubule cells.

Abstract
The final control of sodium balance takes place in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) of the nephron, where corticosteroid hormones regulate sodium reabsorption by acting through mineralocorticoid (MR) and/or glucocorticoid (GR) receptors. A clone of principal CCD cells (mpkCCDc14) has been established that is derived from a transgenic mouse (SV40 large T antigen under the control of the SV40 enhancer/L-type pyruvate kinase promoter). Cells grown on filters form polarized monolayers with high electrical transepithelial resistance (R(T) approximately 4700 ohm x cm2) and potential difference (P(D) approximately -50 mV) and have an amiloride-sensitive electrogenic sodium transport, as assessed by the short-circuit current method (Isc approximately 11 microA/cm2). Reverse transcription-PCR experiments using rat MR primers, [3H]aldosterone, and [3H]dexamethasone binding and competition studies indicated that the mpkCCDc14 cells exhibit specific MR and GR. Aldosterone increased Isc in a dose- (10(-10) to 10(-6) M) and time-dependent (2 to 72 h) manner, whereas corticosterone only transiently increased Isc (2 to 6 h). Consistent with the expression of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2, which metabolizes glucocorticoids to inactive 11-dehydroderivates, carbenoxolone potentiated the corticosterone-stimulated Isc. Aldosterone (5x10(-7) M)-induced Isc (fourfold) was associated with a three- to fivefold increase in alpha-ENaC mRNA (but not in those for beta- or gamma-ENaC) and three- to 10-fold increases in alpha-ENaC protein synthesis. In conclusion, this new immortalized mammalian CCD clonal cell line has retained a high level of epithelial differentiation and sodium transport stimulated by aldosterone and therefore represents a useful mammalian cell system for identifying the genes controlled by aldosterone.

Abstract
This review considers the mechanisms associated with the pleiotropic resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs, and more particularly those related to intracellular pH (pHi). The multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon responsible for the decreased accumulation and increased efflux of cytotoxic drugs is generally associated with excess levels of P-glycoproteins (Pgps) encoded by MDR genes and/or the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP). MDR cell lines, derived from normal or tumor cells, frequently exhibit abnormally elevated pHi and changes in the production of various proteins. Recent studies have suggested that, in addition to the impact of the ATP-dependent membrane transporters Pgp and MRP on drug transport, other mechanisms linked to pHi changes in MDR cells may play an important role in drug resistance. We have shown that alkalinization of the acidic compartments (endosomes and lysosomes) by lysosomotropic agents could stimulate the efflux of vinblastine from drug-resistant mouse renal proximal tubule cells. The fact that weak base chemotherapeutic drugs can be sequestered within the acidic organelles of MDR cells sheds new light on the cellular mechanisms of drug resistance.

Abstract
Vinblastine (VBL) transport and efflux were studied in mouse proximal tubule PKSV-PR cells and in their multidrug-resistant derivatives PKSV-PRcol50 cells. The PKSV-PRcol50 cells produced more mdr1b transcripts and had higher resistance to various drugs. PKSV-PRcol50 cells had a predominantly basal-to-apical flux of [3H]VBL, 2.7 times larger than that in PKSV-PR cells. This flux was partially inhibited by verapamil (VRP) (10 microM) and cyclosporin A (CsA) (200 nM). [3H]VBL efflux was also greater in PKSV-PRcol50 than in PKSV-PR cells. Treatment with NH4Cl (30 mM), a lysosomotropic weak base, and concanamycin A (CCM A) (20 nM), an inhibitor of the vacuolar H+/ATPase, further increased [3H]VBL efflux from PKSV-PRcol50 cells. The cytoplasmic pH (pHcyt) of these drug-resistant cells transiently increased in the presence of NH4Cl deltapHcyt: +0.4). CCM A caused a moderate, delayed increase in pHcyt (deltapHcyt: +0.1) and made the acidic intralysosomal compartment more alkaline (deltapHlys: +1.3). VRP and CsA prevented the NH4Cl- and CCM A-induced [3H]VBL efflux from PKSV-PRcol50 cells. However, VRP (10 microM) did not significantly affect pHcyt of PKSV-PRcol50 cells, the NH4Cl-and CCM A-induced pHcyt responses, and the effect of CCMA on pHlys. Thus, lysosomotropic agents may affect the kinetics of [3H]VBL efflux. Our results also suggest that the inhibitory action of VRP on VBL efflux was not directly mediated by a pH-dependent process in these drug-resistant renal proximal tubule cells.

Abstract
The cortical thick ascending limb (CTAL) absorbs Cl- via a Na+-K+-Cl- cotransport at the apical membrane and several Cl- channels at the basolateral membrane, including a 9-pS channel having several properties of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Having checked that CFTR mRNA is present in the mouse CTAL, we investigated whether this channel is a CFTR molecule by applying the patch-clamp technique to CTALs microdissected from CFTR knockout mice (cftrm1Unc). The 9-pS channel was active in cell-attached patches from tubules of mice homozygous for the disrupted cftr gene [CFTR (-/-)] at the same frequency and with the same activity (NPo) as in normal [CFTR (+/+)] or heterozygous [CFTR (+/-)] mice. The conductive properties of the channel, studied on inside-out patches, were identical in CFTR (-/-), CFTR (+/+), and CFTR (+/-) tubules, as were the sensitivities to internal pH and internal ATP, two typical features of this channel. In addition, the Cl- absorption in isolated, microperfused CTALs and the Na+-K+-Cl- cotransport activity were identical in CFTR (-/-), CFTR (+/+), and CFTR (+/-) mice. These results show that the 9-pS Cl- channel is distinct from CFTR, and that the CFTR protein has no influence on the Cl- absorption in this part of the renal tubule.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to play a role in cyclosporin (CsA) nephrotoxicity, but its mechanism of action is still unclear. As inducible NO synthase (iNOS) mRNA has been found to be expressed in rat medullary thick ascending limb (mTAL) cells, we investigated the effects of CsA on NO production in a model of mouse cultured mTAL cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS The experiments were carried out on sub-cultured cells derived from isolated mTAL microdissected from the kidney of C57BL/6 mice. The identification of the iNOS mRNA in mTAL microdissected segment and cultured cell was confirmed by RT PCR and RsaI digestion. Nitrite (NO2) released by mTAL cells was determined using the modified Griess reagent method and taken as an index of nitric oxide production. The cultured cells were treated with various concentrations of CsA and different signal transduction regulators to assess the effect and possible pathway(s) of action of CsA on NO production in mTAL cells. RESULTS The basal production of NO by mTAL cells increased by 1.8-fold following incubation with bacterial lipopolysaccaride (LPS). Both aminoguanidine and L-NAME inhibited NO production. CsA (10-300 ng/ml) also inhibited NO production in a dose-dependent manner and prevented its increase induced by LPS. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a PKC stimulator, enhanced slightly the production of NO under basal conditions and prevented the inhibitory action of CsA on NO production. These results suggest that the NO secreted by mouse cultured mTAL cells is dependent on the PKC pathway. CONCLUSION These results show that CsA may down-regulate the production of NO by cultured mTAL cells expressing iNOS mRNA and that the PKC pathway is involved in this process.

Abstract
We have investigated CFTR specific intestinal expression by transfection assays in mouse cultured fibroblasts and transimmortalized intestinal crypt m-ICc12 cells using the beta-galactosidase gene linked to rat CFTR non-coding regions. Two constructs were studied, one encompassing a 5.3 kb region 5' to the gene where numerous duodenum-specific DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) were previously mapped and the other including a 1.3 kb 3' region in which novel DHSs had been identified. In transient transfection assays, transgenes were expressed in m-ICc12 cells but not in fibroblasts. In m-ICc12 cells, the pattern of expression of the chromosomally integrated transgenes paralleled the endogenous expression of CFTR and beta-galactosidase activity was detected in cells containing villin and forming domes. Thus, a 6.6 kb region encompassing 5' and 3' non-coding parts of rat CFTR is able to drive specific expression of a reporter gene in cultured mouse intestinal cells having kept a crypt phenotype.

Abstract
The effects of aldosterone and vasopressin on Cl- transport were investigated in a mouse cortical collecting duct (mpkCCD) cell line derived from a transgenic mouse carrying the SV40 large T antigen driven by the proximal regulatory sequences of the L-pyruvate kinase gene. The cells had features of a tight epithelium and expressed the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genes. dD-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) caused a rapid, dose-dependent, increase in short-circuit current (Isc). Experiments with ion channel blockers and apical ion substitution showed that the current represented amiloride-sensitive Na+ and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoate-sensitive and glibenclamide-sensitive Cl- fluxes. Aldosterone (5 x 10(-7)M for 3 or 24 hr) stimulated Isc and apical-to-basal 22Na+ flux by 3-fold. 36Cl- flux studies showed that dDAVP and aldosterone stimulated net Cl- reabsorption and that dDAVP potentiated the action of aldosterone on Cl- transport. Whereas aldosterone affected only the apical-to-basal 36Cl- flux, dDAVP mainly increased the apical-to-basal Cl- flux and the basal-to-apical flux of Cl- to a lesser extent. These results suggest that the discrete dDAVP-elicited Cl- secretion involves the CFTR and that dDAVP and aldosterone may affect in different ways the observed increased Cl- reabsorption in this model of mouse cultured cortical collecting duct cells.

Abstract
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) binding studies and the effects of DHT on the expression of beta-glucuronidase (Gus) and kidney androgen-regulated protein (KAP) genes and cell growth were investigated in immortalized early PKSV-PCT and late PKSV-PR proximal tubule cells, derived from transgenic mice carrying the L-pyruvate kinase/SV40 hybrid gene. [3H]DHT binding studies indicated that both cell lines have conserved substantial amounts of androgen receptors. The levels of KAP and Gus transcripts in PKSV-PCT cells, and those of KAP transcripts in PKSV-PR cells, decreased when cells were shifted from a serum-supplemented to a steroid-free medium. The addition of 30 nM DHT to the steroid-free medium resulted in a slight increase in Gus and in a more marked increase in KAP transcripts in both cell lines. Dihydrotestosterone also affected the growth of PKSV-PCT and PKSV-PR cells, since this hormone added to the steroid-free medium stimulated the incorporation of [3H]thymidine in a dose-dependent manner and induced the formation of domes, which represent indicators of ionic transport processes. Thus, because these early and late mouse proximal tubule cells have conserved androgen receptors, they represent attractive cell systems to analyze the action of androgens on specific functions of the mouse proximal tubule.

Abstract
This report describes the establishment and characterization of the mhPKT cell line derived from the liver of a transgenic mouse harboring the simian virus (SV40) large T and small t antigens placed under the control of the 5' regulatory sequence of the rat L-type pyruvate kinase (L-PK) gene. mhPKT cells had a prolonged life span, expressed the SV40-encoded nuclear large T antigen when grown in glucose-enriched medium, and induced tumors when injected subcutaneously into athymic (nu-nu) mice. Growth on petri dishes or filters yielded multiple layers of cuboid cells, with numerous spaces between adjacent cells that were closed by junctional complexes. These bile canaliculi-like structures exhibited numerous microvilli in which villin, an actin-binding brush-border protein, colocalized with actin. These bile canaliculi-like structures appeared to be functional as they accumulated fluorescein. mhPKT cells conserved the expression of the liver-specific transcription factors HNF1, HNF3, HNF4, and DBP together with substantial levels of L-PK and albumin but not alpha-fetoprotein mRNA transcripts. mhPKT cells mainly metabolized testosterone into androstenedione and 6beta-hydroxytestosterone, as in vivo. 3-Methylcholanthrene and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) markedly increased ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase activity and the related cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1/2 protein, whereas alpha-naphtoflavone antagonized the TCDD-elicited induction. Phenobarbital slightly increased the CYP2B-mediated activities of pentoxyresorufin-O-depentylase, 2beta- and 16beta-testosterone hydroxylase. mhPKT cells also had substantial sulfotransferase, UDP-glucuronyltransferase, and glutathione S-transferase activities. This model may serve as a tool for long-term in vitro studies of xenobiotic metabolism, potent CYP inducers, and hepatocyte damage due to drugs and other factors.

Abstract
We investigate the intrarenal expression of two recently cloned chloride channels, rClC-K1 and rClC-K2, by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction on single microdissected tubules from the rat kidney and by immunohistochemistry using a polyclonal antibody that recognizes both highly homologous channels. Both rClC-K1 and rClC-K2 mRNAs were detected in outer medullary late proximal tubules (S3), papillary ascending thin limbs (ATL), and outer medullary (MTAL) and cortical (CTAL) thick ascending limbs, distal tubules (DCT), and cortical, outer medullary, and inner medullary collecting ducts. Indirect immunofluorescence studies demonstrated that the rClC-K proteins were restricted to the basolateral membranes from ATL, DCT, and collecting ducts cells, whereas CTAL and MTAL exhibited a more diffuse basal staining. When rats were dehydrated, a condition which increased the expression of rClC-K1 in cortex and medulla, a weak cytoplasmic staining was found in late proximal tubule cells. Thus these results demonstrate that rat kidney ClC-K channels are predominantly located in the basolateral membranes from cells of the late segments of the renal tubule where most of chloride reabsorption takes place.

Abstract
This study describes the properties of a clone of immortalized cells (m-ICc12 cells) derived from the bases of small intestinal villi from 20-day-old fetuses of L-type pyruvate kinase (L-PK)/ TAg1 transgenic mice. The mice harbor the simian virus 40 large T antigen under the control of the 5' regulatory sequence from the L-PK gene. m-ICc12 cells expressed nuclear large T antigen, had a prolonged life span, and were nontumorigenic when injected into nude mice. They formed confluent monolayers of cuboid cells separated by tight junctions, developed dense, short apical microvilli, and formed domes. They also possessed cytokeratins, villin, aminopeptidase N, dipeptidyl-peptidase IV, and glucoamylase and retained crypt cell features, including intracellular sucrase isomaltase and alpha-L-fucose glycoconjugates accumulation and expression of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. Thus the m-ICc12 cell line obtained by targeted oncogenesis in transgenic mice maintained in culture several important properties and differentiated functions of intestinal crypt cells.
