Abstract

Mutations in human DRA cause congenital chloride diarrhea, thereby raising the possibility that it functions as a Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger. To test this hypothesis we cloned a cDNA encoding mouse DRA (mDRA) and analyzed its activity in cultured mammalian cells. When expressed in HEK 293 cells, mDRA conferred Na(+)-independent, electroneutral Cl(-)/CHO(3)(-) exchange activity. Removal of extracellular Cl(-) from medium containing HCO(3)(-) caused a rapid intracellular alkalinization, whereas the intracellular pH increase following Cl(-) removal from HCO(3)(-)-free medium was reduced greater than 7-fold. The intracellular alkalinization in Cl(-)-free, HCO(3)(-)-containing medium was unaffected by removal of extracellular Na(+) or by depolarization of the membrane by addition of 75 mM K(+) to the medium. Like human DRA mRNA, mDRA transcripts were expressed at high levels in cecum and colon and at lower levels in small intestine. The expression of mDRA mRNA was modestly up-regulated in the colon of mice lacking the NHE3 Na(+)/H(+) exchanger. These results show that DRA is a Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger and suggest that it normally acts in concert with NHE3 to absorb NaCl and that in NHE3-deficient mice its activity is coupled with those of the sharply up-regulated colonic H(+),K(+)-ATPase and epithelial Na(+) channel to mediate electrolyte and fluid absorption.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
