The KCNQ1 channel is abundantly expressed in the gastric parietal cells. Although the functional coupling of KCNQ1 with the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase has already been confirmed on the basis of pharmacological kinetics, the effect of a KCNQ1 loss-of-function mutation on gastric acidification remains unclear. In this study, parietal cells and gastric glands from both C57BL/6 J mice (normal control) and J343 mice (mice with a KCNQ1 loss-of-function mutation) were isolated to study the effects of KCNQ1 on gastric acidification. We found that the mutation limited intracellular acidification of parietal cells and H(+) secretion of the stomach in response to histamine. Thus, a KCNQ1 loss-of-function mutation may impair gastric acid secretion.
