Regulation of epithelial Na+ channels from M-1 cortical collecting duct cells

The M-1 cell line is derived from the mouse cortical collecting duct and displays the low-conductance, highly Na(+)-selective channel activity of the alpha,beta, gamma-heterotrimeric epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC). The short-circuit current (Isc) across M-1 monolayers was 89 +/- 4 microA/cm2, and the transepithelial conductance was 2.1 +/- 0.2 mS/cm2. Isc was abolished by blocking the Na+ pump with ouabain. Both Isc and transepithelial conductance (gT) were inhibited by benzamil > amiloride >> dimethylamiloride. Under our experimental conditions, vasopressin, vasopressin, forskolin, and dibutyryl adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) had no detectable effects on Isc or gT. Increasing apical Na+ entry with nystatin increased Isc. The possible regulation of the M-1 Na+ channel by cAMP-activated protein kinase A (PKA) was further examined with excised inside-out patches. The open-time probability (Po) was not fixed, displaying substantial variance. Perfusion with ATP itself, with the catalytic subunit of PKA with ATP, or with alkaline phosphatase had no consistent effect on Po, the unitary current, or the kinetics of the M-1 Na+ channel. The data are consistent with the concept that PKA stimulates ENaCs by phosphorylating a site with access to but not within the apical membrane patch during cell-attached and excised-patch studies.
