We evaluated the effects of keratinocyte growth
factor (KGF) on alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) active ion transport and
on rat epithelial Na channel (rENaC) subunit and
Na+-K+-adenosinetriphosphatase
(ATPase) subunit isoform expression using monolayers of AEC grown in
primary culture. Rat alveolar type II cells were plated on
polycarbonate filters in serum-free medium, and KGF (10 ng/ml) was
added to confluent AEC monolayers on day 4 in culture. Exposure of AEC monolayers to KGF on
day 4 resulted in dose-dependent
increases in short-circuit current
(Isc) compared with controls by day 5, with further
increases occurring through day 8.
Relative
Na+-K+-ATPase
1-subunit mRNA abundance was
increased by 41% on days 6 and
8 after exposure to KGF, whereas
2-subunit mRNA remained only
marginally detectable in both the absence and presence of KGF. Levels
of mRNA for the
1-subunit of
Na+-K+-ATPase
did not increase, whereas cellular
1- and
1-subunit protein increased 70 and 31%, respectively, on day 6. mRNA
for
-,
-, and
-rENaC all decreased in abundance after
treatment with KGF. These results indicate that KGF upregulates active
ion transport across AEC monolayers via a KGF-induced increase in Na
pumps, primarily due to increased
Na+-K+-ATPase
1-subunit mRNA expression. We
conclude that KGF may enhance alveolar fluid clearance after acute lung
injury by upregulating Na pump expression and transepithelial Na
transport across the alveolar epithelium.
