Shear force modulates the activity of acid-sensing ion channels at low pH or in the presence of non-proton ligands.

Abstract:

:Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) belong to the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel protein family that form mechanosensitive ion channels. Evidence as to whether or not ASICs activity is directly modulated by mechanical force is lacking. Human ASICs (hASIC1V3, hASIC2a and hASIC3a) were heterologously expressed as homomeric channels in Xenopus oocytes and two-electrode voltage-clamp recordings were performed. hASIC3a was expressed in HEK-293 cells and currents measured by whole-cell patch-clamp recordings. ASIC currents in response to shear force (SF) were measured at pH 7.4, acidic pH, or in the presence of non-proton ligands at pH 7.4. SF was applied via a fluid stream generated through a pressurized perfusion system. No effect was observed at pH 7.4. Increased transient currents for each homomeric channel were observed when elevated SF was applied in conjunction with acidic pH (6.0-4.0). The sustained current was not (hASIC2a) or only slightly increased (hASIC1V3 and hASIC3a). SF-induced effects were not seen in water injected oocytes and were blocked by amiloride. Non-proton ligands activated a persistent current in hASIC1V3 and cASIC1 (MitTx) and hASIC3a (GMQ) at pH 7.4. Here SF caused a further current increase. Results suggest that ASICs do have an intrinsic ability to respond to mechanical force, supporting their role as mechanosensors in certain local environments.
