Polyamines are essential for cell migration
during early mucosal restitution after wounding in the gastrointestinal
tract. Activity of voltage-gated K+ channels (Kv) controls
membrane potential (Em) that regulates cytoplasmic
free Ca2+ concentration
([Ca2+]cyt) by governing the
driving force for Ca2+ influx. This study determined
whether polyamines are required for the stimulation of cell migration
by altering K+ channel gene expression,
Em, and
[Ca2+]cyt in intestinal epithelial
cells (IEC-6). The specific inhibitor of polyamine synthesis,
-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO, 5 mM), depleted cellular
polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine), selectively
inhibited Kv1.1 channel (a delayed-rectifier Kv channel) expression,
and resulted in membrane depolarization. Because IEC-6 cells did not
express voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, the depolarized
Em in DFMO-treated cells decreased [Ca2+]cyt as a result of reduced
driving force for Ca2+ influx through capacitative
Ca2+ entry. Migration was reduced by 80% in the
polyamine-deficient cells. Exogenous spermidine not only reversed the
effects of DFMO on Kv1.1 channel expression, Em,
and [Ca2+]cyt but also restored
cell migration to normal. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ or
blockade of Kv channels (by 4-aminopyridine, 1-5 mM) significantly inhibited normal cell migration and prevented the restoration of cell
migration by exogenous spermidine in polyamine-deficient cells. These
results suggest that polyamine-dependent intestinal epithelial cell
migration may be due partially to an increase of Kv1.1 channel
expression. The subsequent membrane hyperpolarization raises
[Ca2+]cyt by increasing the driving
force (the electrochemical gradient) for Ca2+ influx and
thus stimulates cell migration.
