PG - C1467-73 AB - The inactivation of physiological glucocorticoids by 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11 beta-HSD) confers mineralocorticoid specificity to certain aldosterone target tissues. However, 11 beta-HSD activity in a human mineralocorticoid-responsive tissue has never been characterized. The present studies describe the features of 11 beta-HSD in the cultured human colonic epithelial cell line, T84. The 11 beta-HSD activity of T84 cells resided in the microsomal fraction and showed a marked preference for NAD rather than NADP as cofactor. NAD or NADP (200 microM) increased the conversion of corticosterone to 11-dehydrocorticosterone by 24.1 +/- 2.1 and 0.5 +/- 0.7 pmol.mg protein-1.20 min-1, respectively, indicating a > 40-fold preference for NAD vs. NADP. The Michaelis constant values for corticosterone and cortisol were 11.3 +/- 1.5 and 79.8 +/- 10 nM, respectively. The T84 11 beta-HSD was inhibited by 11-dehydrocorticosterone in a noncompetitive fashion [inhibition constant (Ki) = 180 +/- 9.6 nM] and by carbenoxolone in a competitive fashion (Ki = 17.4 +/- 1.3 nM). The expression of mineralocorticoid receptors in these cells was demonstrated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction of mRNA isolated from T84 cells and by [3H]aldosterone binding studies. The coexpression of this NAD-dependent isoform of 11 beta-HSD and mineralocorticoid receptors is consistent with the view that the NAD-dependent isoform is responsible for the specificity of mineralocorticoid responses.
