The present study was undertaken to identify and
determine the mechanism of noncholinergic pathways for the induction of
liquid secretion across airway epithelium. Excised porcine bronchi
secreted substantial and significant quantities of liquid when exposed to acetylcholine, substance P, or forskolin but not to isoproterenol, norepinephrine, or phenylephrine. Bumetanide, an inhibitor of Na+-K+-2Cl
cotransport, reduced
the liquid secretion response to substance P by 69%. Approximately
two-thirds of bumetanide-insensitive liquid secretion was blocked by
dimethylamiloride (DMA), a Na+/H+ exchange
inhibitor. Substance P responses were preserved in airways after
surface epithelium removal, suggesting that secreted liquid originated
from submucosal glands. The anion channel blockers diphenylamine-2-carboxylate (DPC) and
5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB) inhibited >90% of
substance P-induced liquid secretion, whereas DIDS had no effect. DMA,
DPC, and NPPB had greater inhibitory effects on net
