Exocytosis is not involved in activation of Clminus secretion via CFTR in Calu-3 airway epithelial cells

Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel, which mediates transepithelial Cl- transport in a variety of epithelia, including airway, intestine, pancreas, and sweat duct. In some but not all epithelial cells, cAMP stimulates Cl- secretion in part by increasing the number of CFTR Cl- channels in the apical plasma membrane. Because the mechanism whereby cAMP stimulates CFTR Cl- secretion is cell-type specific, our goal was to determine whether cAMP elevates CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion across serous airway epithelial cells by stimulating the insertion of CFTR Cl- channels from an intracellular pool into the apical plasma membrane. To this end we studied Calu-3 cells, a human airway cell line with a serous cell phenotype. Serous cells in human airways, such as Calu-3 cells, express high levels of CFTR, secrete antibiotic-rich fluid, and play a critical role in airway function. Moreover, dysregulation of CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion in serous cells is thought to contribute to the pathophysiology of cystic fibrosis lung disease. We report that cAMP activation of CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion across human serous cells involves stimulation of CFTR channels present in the apical plasma membrane and does not involve the recruitment of CFTR from an intracellular pool to the apical plasma membrane.
