Ex vivo biochemical analysis of CFTR in human rectal biopsies

Abstract: This report describes the first biosynthetic analysis of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in freshly excised human rectal biopsies. Expression of functional CFTR was assessed by intestinal current measurement (ICM) prior to biosynthetic studies. Several structural features of CFTR are found to be comparable to those established in CFTR-expressing cell lines. Interestingly, maturation of CFTR increases substantially in tissue incubated at 26 degrees C. Our data provide a solid basi… Show more

“…Constitutive endocytic (clathrin-mediated) recycling to and from the plasma membrane efficiently controls the number of channels on the cell surface at steady state because CFTR has a long half-life (Ͼ20 h) in intestinal epithelial cells (12,44,48,55). Endocytic recycling and regulated exocytosis directly modulate CFTR ion transport in the intestine in a cell typespecific manner in endogenous CFTR-expressing epithelial cells and tissues (9,27).…”

“…This response is atypical for non-CF probands, but is characteristic for most CF patients with residual chloride secretion [4,14]. (B) T84 cells or rectal biopsies were homogenized [5], lysed with 0.02% SDS for 30 min, followed by 1% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 0.5% (w/v) sodium deoxycholate for 40 min, and centrifuged (16,000 g, 4°C, 20 min). After incubation with protein Asepharose (PAS) for 60 min, the supernatant was immunoprecipitated with rabbit polyclonal antibodies R39, R40 (raised against hCFTR peptide 1465-1480) and R453 (raised against CFTR peptides 1-14 and 1466-1480) [5] in the presence of PAS.…”
