Cystic fibrosis is associated with mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR), a cAMP-regulated plasma membrane Cl- channel. Mutations in the CFTR have been reported to not only impair Cl-transport at the plasma membrane but also inhibit organelle acidification and disrupt cAMP-regulated plasma membrane recycling. Comparisons of cultured pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells expressing the delta 508 mutant CFTR (CFPAC-1 cells) with genetically matched CFPAC-1 cells transfected with the wild-type CFTR demonstrate that expression of wild-type CFTR restores cAMP-mediated plasma membrane Cl- transport, but has no effect on pH regulation of endosomes labeled with either transferrin or wheat germ agglutinin. Endosome pH was, in all cases, similar in the two cell lines and unaffected by treatment with the cAMP agonist forskolin. Forskolin treatment had no effect on transferrin internalization, but increased recycling by 30-40% in both cell lines. The kinetics of wheat germ agglutinin recycling were negligibly affected by forskolin in either cell line. These results demonstrate that endocytic acidification and cAMP-mediated endocytic protein redistribution are similar in genetically matched CFPAC-1 cells which differ only in the expression of mutant or wild-type CFTR. |
