Abstract

A complete cDNA encoding rabbit Uteroglobin was constructed and expressed in MDCK and Caco‐2 cells. The MDCK cells secrete Uteroglobin in approximately equal amounts to the apical and the basolateral side, whereas the Caco‐2 cells secrete Uteroglobin mainly to the basolateral side. Both MDCK and Caco‐2 cells thus secrete Uteroglobin in a non‐sorted manner. It has, however, previously been shown that Uteroglobin is secreted exclusively at the apical membrane in primary cell culture of endometrial epithelial cells [S.K. Mani et al. (1991) Endocrinology 128, 1563‐1573]. This suggests that either the endometrial epithelium has an apical default pathway or recognises a sorting signal not recognised by MDCK cells and Caco‐2 cells. Our data thus show that a soluble molecule can be secreted at the apical, the basolateral or both membranes depending on the cell type.
