Prostaglandins mediate autacrine and paracrine signaling over short distances. We used the renal collecting duct as a model system to test the hypothesis that local control of prostaglandin signaling is achieved by expressing inactivation in the same cell as synthesis. Immunocytochemical studies demonstrated that renal collecting ducts in situ express the prostaglandin (PG) synthesis enzyme, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), as well as both components of prostaglandin metabolic inactivation, i.e. the prostaglandin uptake carrier prostaglandin transporter (PGT) and the enzyme 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase. We characterized this system further using the collecting duct cell line Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK), which retains COX-2 and prostaglandin dehydrogenase expression but which has lost PGT expression. When we reintroduced PGT, it was correctly sorted to the apical membrane where it altered the sidedness of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release, a process we call "vectorial release via sided reuptake." Importantly, although COX-2 and prostaglandin dehydrogenase are expressed in the same MDCK cell, they must be compartmentalized because even in the presence of excess dehydrogenase newly synthesized PGE2 is released largely un-oxidized. However, when PGE2 undergoes first release and then PGT-mediated reuptake, significant oxidation takes place, suggesting that PGT imports PGE2 into the prostaglandin dehydrogenase compartment. Our data are consistent with a new model that offers significant new mechanisms for the fine control of eicosanoid signaling.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
