Effect of low molecular weight proteins and dextran on renal cathepsin B and L activity. Renal extraction of low molecular weight proteins (LMWP) accounts for 30% to 80% of their total metabolic clearance. Extraction includes glomerular filtration, proximal tubular uptake, and intralysosomal proteolysis. To characterize the anatomic sites and enzymes involved in digestion of reabsorbed LMWP, the lysosomal proteases, cathepsin B and L, were measured by ultramicroassay in isolated S1, S2 and S3 segments of the proximal tubule of proteinuric rats. Increased glomerular filtration and tubular uptake of LMWP were induced by i.v. and i.p. injections of myoglobin and cationic and anionic lysozyme. Both cationic lysozyme and myoglobin increased cathepsin B and L activities in the proximal tubule, while anionic lysozyme had no effect. Morphologic examination of kidney tissue suggested that proximal tubular uptake of anionic lysozyme was negligible in comparison with the cationic form. Hence, only LMWP absorbed by the proximal tubule cells stimulated cathepsin B and L activities. Proximal tubular uptake of cationic lysozyme was determined by measurement of lysozyme activities in S1, S2, and S3. S1 segments contained the highest lysozyme activity, while S2 and S3 had much lower activities, and cathepsin B and L activity following cationic lysozyme injection was stimulated only in S1 segments. These results suggest that cathepsin B and L participate in lysosomal digestion of certain LMWP. Furthermore, the activities of cathepsin B and L adapt to increased uptake of LMWP. To gain additional insight into the mechanism of cathepsin adaptation, the cathepsin B and L activities were measured following injection of dextran with a similar low molecular weight. Dextran uptake in proximal tubules was confirmed by morphologic examination of kidney tissue. Dextran increased cathepsin B and L activities in the proximal tubule. Hence, increased endocytic activity of proximal tubule cells or increased lysosomal load of macromolecules or both rather than direct protein-enzyme interaction seem to be involved in cathepsin stimulation.
