EGF receptor transactivation and MAP kinase mediate proteinase-activated receptor-2-induced chloride secretion in intestinal epithelial cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We examined the stimulus-secretion pathways whereby proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR-2) stimulates Cl(-) secretion in intestinal epithelial cells. SCBN and T84 epithelial monolayers grown on Snapwell supports and mounted in modified Ussing chambers were activated by the PAR-2-activating peptides SLIGRL-NH(2) and 2-furoyl-LIGRLO-NH(2). Short-circuit current (I(sc)) was used as a measure of net electrogenic ion transport. Basolateral, but not apical, application of SLIGRL-NH(2) or 2-furoyl-LIGRLO-NH(2) caused a concentration-dependent change in I(sc) that was significantly reduced in Cl(-)-free buffer and by the intracellular Ca(2+) blockers thapsigargin and BAPTA-AM, but not by the Ca(2+) channel blocker verapamil. Inhibitors of PKA (H-89) and CFTR (glibenclamide) also significantly reduced PAR-2-stimulated Cl(-) transport. PAR-2 activation was associated with increases in cAMP and intracellular Ca(2+). Immunoblot analysis revealed increases in phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase, Src, Pyk2, cRaf, and ERK1/2 in response to PAR-2 activation. Pretreatment with inhibitors of cyclooxygenases (indomethacin), tyrosine kinases (genistein), EGFR (PD-153035), MEK (PD-98059 or U-0126), and Src (PP1) inhibited SLIGRL-NH(2)-induced increases in I(sc). Inhibition of Src, but not matrix metalloproteinases, reduced EGFR phosphorylation. Reduced EGFR phosphorylation paralleled the reduction in PAR-2-stimulated I(sc). We conclude that activation of basolateral, but not apical, PAR-2 induces epithelial Cl(-) secretion via cAMP- and Ca(2+)-dependent mechanisms. The secretory effect involves EGFR transactivation by Src, leading to subsequent ERK1/2 activation and increased cyclooxygenase activity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
