The Epithelial Sodium-Hydrogen Antiporter Na+/H+ Exchanger 3 Accumulates and Is Functional in Recycling Endosomes

Abstract: Na ؉ /H؉ exchangers (NHEs) mediate electroneutral exchange of Na ؉ for H ؉ and thereby play a central role in pH regulation and Na ؉ homeostasis. NHE3, the predominant epithelial isoform, is found in apical membranes of renal and intestinal epithelial cells, where it contributes to NaCl (re)absorption. NHE activity has been detected in endomembrane vesicles of epithelial cells, but the precise compartment involved and its functional role have not been defined. Many aspects of the targeting machinery that defin… Show more

“…At least four of the NHX proteins (NHX-2, -4, -6, and -7) are targeted to the plasma membrane; the fact that the mammalian exchanger NHE3 can reside in intracellular vesicles that fuse to the plasma membrane upon cell signaling (35) suggests that even intracellular isoforms have the potential to mediate plasma membrane currents under appropriate conditions. In addition, the identification of a relatively large number of putative intracellular Na ϩ -H ϩ exchangers in C. elegans (five) compared with mammals (two to date) provides us with a unique opportunity to use the genetic and reverse genetic techniques that have been established in nematodes to dissect the role that these proteins play in organelle and vesicle function.…”

“…Due to their distinct localization to specific types of organelles it is likely that intracellular NHEs play a critical part in the regulation of organellar pH. In support of this, overexpression or loss of intracellular NHEs alters organellar pH [113,35,130,80]. This concept is however challenged by studies where knock-down or loss of individual organelle-specific NHEs had no effect on pH [38,147,52].…”

“…Because the commonly used antiport-deficient lines (PS120 and AP-1) are fibroblastic, they lack the unique polarity and targeting determinants of differentiated epithelia. As a result, when expressed in such cells, NHE3 resides largely in endomembranes, and only a minor (Ϸ15%) fraction reaches the plasmalemma, where it is dispersed homogeneously (7). For these reasons, the determinants of apical targeting and retention of NHE3 remain unknown.…”
