Internalization of horseradish peroxidase isozymes by pancreatic acinar cells in vitro

We examined the uptake and fate of four horseradish peroxidase (HRP) isozymes (Type VI, VII, VIII, and IX) in isolated pancreatic acinar cells. The pattern of uptake was similar for all the isozymes examined, with the exception of Type IX. Very little Type IX HRP was internalized by the cells, and what endocytosis did occur was primarily from the apical cell surface in coated vesicles. In contrast, HRP Type VI, VII, and VIII appeared to be endocytosed largely at the basolateral cell surface. Initially, the tracer was found in smooth vesicles and tubules near the plasma membrane. The tubules resembled the basal lysosomes known to be present in these cells. At the early time points, HRP reaction product was also present in multivesicular bodies (MVBs). By 60 min, the HRP was localized in MVBs, vesicles, and tubules adjacent to the Golgi apparatus. By 12 hr after exposure to the isozymes, the tracer was present in small apical vesicles. At no time could reaction product be localized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi saccules, or secretory granules. The results of this study suggest that the charge of a soluble-phase marker has little effect on its uptake or intracellular distribution.
