Abstract:
:Incubation of alveolar macrophages or hepatocytes in media in which Na+ is replaced by K+ ("isotonic-K buffer") inhibited the movement of internalized ligand from late endosomes to lysosomes (Ward et al.: Journal of Cell Biology 110:1013-1022, 1990). In this study we investigate the mechanism responsible for the isotonic-K+ block in movement of ligand from late endosomes to lysosomes. We observed that iso-K+ inhibition of endosome-lysosome fusion is not unique to alveolar macrophages or hepatocytes but can be seen in a variety of cell types including J774 and Hela cells. The inhibition in intracellular ligand movement was time dependent with the maximum change occurring after 60 minutes. Once established the inhibition resulted in a prolonged and apparently permanent decrease in vesicle movement. Cells were able to recover from the effects of iso-K+ buffers over a time course of 5-10 minutes when placed back in Na(+)-containing media. The effect of iso-K+ buffers was independent of intracellular pH changes and appeared to involve cell swelling. When cells were incubated in iso-K+ buffers under conditions in which cell volume changes were reduced, intracellular ligand movement approached normal levels. Such conditions included replacing Cl- with the less permeant anion gluconate, and by addition of sucrose to isotonic-K+ buffers. Analysis of the mechanism by which changes in cell volume could alter intracellular movement ruled out changes in cyclic nucleotides, Ca2+, or microtubules. These results suggest that changes in cell shape or volume can alter intracellular transport systems by novel routes.
