Annexin VI defines an apical endocytic compartment in rat liver hepatocytes

Annexin VI has been demonstrated previously to be a marker for hepatic endosomes. By western blotting with an affinity purified anti-annexin VI antibody it was shown that annexin VI was present in the three morphologically and functionally different endosomal fractions from rat liver. We have quantified the gold-labeled endosomes by immunoelectron microscopy in ultrathin Lowicryl sections of rat liver and now demonstrate that 80% of the total labeling with anti-annexin VI was associated with endocytic structures surrounding the bile canaliculus, the apical domain of hepatocytes, whereas only 20% was found in the subsinusoidal endosomes. In double immuno-gold labeling experiments 80% of the Rab5 positive apical endosomes were also labeled with anti-annexin VI antibodies. However, there was no significant colocalization with antibodies to the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. Finally, we demonstrate that 50% of endosomes containing internalized gold-labeled transferrin were double labeled with anti-annexin VI antibodies. Thus, annexin VI becomes the first known structural protein at the apical 'early' endocytic compartment of the hepatocyte that may be involved in the receptor recycling and transport to late endocytic/lysosomal compartment pathways.
