We previously found that water transport across
hepatocyte plasma membranes occurs mainly via a non-channel mediated
pathway. Recently, it has been reported that mRNA for the water
channel, aquaporin-8 (AQP8), is present in hepatocytes. To further
explore this issue, we studied protein expression, subcellular
localization, and regulation of AQP8 in rat hepatocytes. By subcellular
fractionation and immunoblot analysis, we detected an
N-glycosylated band of ~34 kDa corresponding to AQP8 in
hepatocyte plasma and intracellular microsomal membranes. Confocal
immunofluorescence microscopy for AQP8 in cultured hepatocytes showed a
predominant intracellular vesicular localization. Dibutyryl cAMP
(Bt2cAMP) stimulated the redistribution of AQP8 to plasma
membranes. Bt2cAMP also significantly increased hepatocyte
membrane water permeability, an effect that was prevented by the water
channel blocker dimethyl sulfoxide. The microtubule blocker colchicine
but not its inactive analog lumicolchicine inhibited the
Bt2cAMP effect on both AQP8 redistribution to cell surface
and hepatocyte membrane water permeability. Our data suggest that in
rat hepatocytes AQP8 is localized largely in intracellular vesicles and
can be redistributed to plasma membranes via a microtubule-depending,
cAMP-stimulated mechanism. These studies also suggest that aquaporins
contribute to water transport in cAMP-stimulated hepatocytes, a process
that could be relevant to regulated hepatocyte bile secretion.
