Cultured dog pancreatic duct epithelial cells were loaded with an oxidizable neurotransmitter, dopamine or serotonin, and the subsequent release of these exogenous molecules during exocytosis was detected by carbon-fiber amperometry. Loaded cells displayed spontaneous exocytosis that may represent constitutive membrane transport. The quantal amperometric events induced by fusion of single vesicles had a rapid onset and decay, resembling those in adrenal chromaffin cells and serotonin-secreting leech neurons. Quantal events were frequently preceded by a \u201cfoot,\u201d assumed to be leak of transmitters through a transient fusion pore, suggesting that those cell types share a common fusion mechanism. As in neurons and endocrine cells, exocytosis in the epithelial cells could be evoked by elevating cytoplasmic Ca2+ using ionomycin. Unlike in neurons, hyperosmotic solutions decreased exocytosis in the epithelial cells, and giant amperometric events composed of many concurrent quantal events were observed occasionally. Agents known to increase intracellular cAMP in the cells, such as forskolin, epinephrine, vasoactive intestinal peptide, or 8-Br-cAMP, increased the rate of exocytosis. The forskolin effect was inhibited by the Rp-isomer of cAMPS, a specific antagonist of protein kinase A, whereas the Sp-isomer, a specific agonist of PKA, evoked exocytosis. Thus, PKA is a downstream effector of cAMP. Finally, activation of protein kinase C by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate also increased exocytosis. The PMA effect was not mimicked by the inactive analogue, 4\u03b1-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate, and it was blocked by the PKC antagonist, bisindolylmaleimide I. Elevation of intracellular Ca2+ was not needed for the actions of forskolin or PMA. In summary, exocytosis in epithelial cells can be stimulated directly by Ca2+, PKA, or PKC, and is mediated by physical mechanisms similar to those in neurons and endocrine cells.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1085\/jgp.116.4.507","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,7,26]],"date-time":"2002-07-26T16:50:20Z","timestamp":1027702220000},"page":"507-520","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1085\/jgp.crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Regulation of Exocytosis by Protein Kinases and Ca2+ in Pancreatic Duct Epithelial Cells"],"prefix":"10.1085","volume":"116","author":[{"given":"Duk-Su","family":"Koh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"aDepartment of Physiology and Biophysics, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-7290"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark W.","family":"Moody","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"bDepartment of Medicine, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-7290"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toan D.","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"bDepartment of Medicine, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-7290"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bertil","family":"Hille","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"aDepartment of Physiology and Biophysics, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-7290"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"291","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2000,9,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023072616365169000_Abdullahetal1997","first-page":"L201","article-title":"Protein kinase C and Ca2+ activation of mucin secretion in airway goblet cells","volume":"273","author":"Abdullah","year":"1997","journal-title":"Am.
