Abstract: 

The cholinergic agonist carbachol stimulates the apical H+-K+-ATPase and apical as well as basolateral K+ channels in the rat distal colon. The effect of carbachol was tested in the presence of different inhibitors of the Ca2+ signaling pathway in order to characterize the intracellular mechanisms involved. Both carbachol-stimulated Rb+-efflux as well as carbachol-stimulated mucosal Rb+-uptake were dependent on the presence of serosal Ca2+. The Ca2+-calmodulin antagonist calmidazolium (10(-7) mol l(-1)) inhibited the stimulation of mucosal and serosal Rb+ efflux by carbachol. A similar effect had KN-62 (10(-5) mol l(-1)), an inhibitor of the Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent kinase II, suggesting the regulation of basolateral and apical K+ channels by this kinase. Staurosporine (10(-6) mol l(-1)), which potently inhibits protein kinase C, did not alter the effect of carbachol on Rb+ efflux, although the stimulation of apical Rb+ efflux by carbachol seemed to be less prolonged, indicating that protein kinase C is not involved in the regulation of K+ permeability. In contrast, mucosal Rb+ uptake, which is determined by the ouabain- and vanadate-sensitive K+ transport via the apical H+-K+-ATPase, was decreased to nearly one third of control values in the presence of calmidazolium. Both calmidazolium and staurosporine, but not KN-62, prevented the stimulatory action of carbachol on the H+-K+-ATPase, suggesting a synergistic control of this ion pump by both Ca2+-calmodulin and protein kinase C.
