The role of an anion exchange pathway in modulating intracellular pH (pHi) under steady-state and alkaline load conditions was investigated in confluent monolayers of rat type II alveolar epithelial cells using the pH-sensitive fluorescent probe 2'-7'-biscarboxy-ethyl-5,6- carboxylfluorescein. Under steady-state conditions in the presence of 25 mM HCO3-, 5% CO2 at pHo 7.4, pHi was 7.32 in a Na+-replete medium and 7.33 in the absence of Na+. Steady-state pHi was 7.19 in a nominally HCO3(-)-free medium at pHo 7.4, and 7.52 in a Cl(-)-free medium, with both values significantly different from that obtained in the presence of both HCO3- and Cl-. Monolayers in which pHi was rapidly elevated by removal of HCO3-/CO2 from the bathing medium demonstrated an absolute requirement for Cl- to recover toward base-line pHi. The Km of Cl- for the external site of the exchange pathway was 11 +/- 1 mM. Recovery of pHi from the alkaline load in the presence of Cl- was inhibited 60% by the stilbene derivative 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene- 2,2'-disulfonic acid. Removal of Cl- from the medium of cells bathed in HCO3-/CO2 resulted in a rapid increment in pHi which returned to base line when Cl- was reintroduced into the bathing medium. In contrast, pHi was not perturbed by removal or addition of Cl- to monolayers bathed in a 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid-buffered medium, indicating that HCO3- was the preferred species for transport. Recovery of pHi from an alkaline load was not affected by the presence or absence of Na+. These findings define the transport pathway as Na+- independent Cl-/HCO3- exchange. This pathway contributes importantly to determining resting pHi of pneumocytes and enables the cell to recover from an alkaline load.
