Abstract: Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) was activated by stimulation of glutamate receptors in cultured rat hippocampal neurons. Ten micromolar glutamate maximally stimulated MAP kinase activity, which peaked during 10 min and decreased to the basal level within 30 min. Experiments using glutamate receptor agonists and antagonists revealed that glutamate stimulated MAP kinase through NMDA and metabotropic glutamate receptors but not through non-NMDA receptors. Glutamate and its receptor agonists had no apparent effect on MAP kinase activation in cultured cortical astrocytes. Addition of calphostin C, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, or down-regulation of PKC activity partly abolished the stimulatory effect by glutamate, but the MAP kinase activation by treatment with ionomycin, a Ca2+ ionophore, remained intact. Lavendustin A, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was without effect. In experiments with 32 P-labeled hippocampal neurons, MAP kinase activation by glutamate was associated with phosphorylation of the tyrosine residue located on MAP kinase. However, phosphorylation of Raf-1, the c- raf protooncogene product, was not stimulated by treatment with glutamate. Our observations suggest that MAP kinase activation through glutamate receptors in hippocampal neurons is mediated by both the PKC-dependent and the Ca2+ -dependent pathways and that the activation of Raf-1 is not involved. 相似文献

Lithium Decreases Membrane-Associated Protein Kinase C in Hippocampus: Selectivity for the α Isozyme

We investigated the effects of lithium on alterations in the amount and distribution of protein kinase C (PKC) in discrete areas of rat brain by using [3H]phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate quantitative autoradiography as well as western blotting. Chronic administration of lithium resulted in a significant decrease in membrane-associated PKC in several hippocampal structures, most notably the subiculum and the CA1 region. In contrast, only modest changes in [3H]phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate binding were observed in the various other cortical and subcortical structures examined. Immunoblotting using monoclonal anti-PKC antibodies revealed an isozyme-specific 30% decrease in hippocampal membrane-associated PKC α, in the absence of any changes in the labeling of either the β(I/II) or γ isozymes. These changes were observed only after chronic (4 week) treatment with lithium, and not after acute (5 days) treatment, suggesting potential clinical relevance. Given the critical role of PKC in regulating neuronal signal transduction, lithium's effects on PKC in the limbic system represent an attractive molecular mechanism for its efficacy in treating both poles of manic-depressive illness. In addition, the decreased hippocampal membrane-associated PKC observed in the present study offers a possible explanation for lithium-induced memory impairment. 相似文献

Certain biological actions of phorbol esters cannot be duplicated by diacylglycerol (DAG). Thus, the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y differentiates when exposed to 12-tetradecanoyl-13-acetyl-beta-phorbol (TPA) and protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, but not when exposed to DAG. To investigate the specific features of the phorbol diester molecule that might be responsible for these effects, we examined the extension of neurites, expression of neuron-specific enolase, and appearance and localization of phosphorylated high molecular weight neurofilament subunits (NF-H). TPA, 12-deoxy-13-tetradecanoyl-beta-phorbol, and staurosporine, but not DAG or 4-O-methyl-TPA, caused neurite outgrowth. Neuron-specific enolase was expressed in cells treated with TPA and 12-deoxy-13-tetradecanoyl-beta-phorbol but not with DAG, staurosporine, or 4-O-methyl-TPA. NF-H increased in the perikarya of cells treated with DAG and 4-O-methyl-TPA, in processes and to varying degrees in perikarya of TPA- and 12-deoxy-13-tetradecanoyl-beta-phorbol-treated cells, but much more in the processes than in the perikarya of staurosporine-differentiated cells. These findings and additional differences between the differentiation induced by TPA (a PKC activator) and staurosporine (a PKC inhibitor), including distinct morphology of the cell body and processes and time of appearance of the morphological phenotype, suggest that activators and inhibitors of PKC induce differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells by different mechanisms, and that the five-membered/seven-membered terpene ring region present in TPA must be intact for the induction of morphological differentiation. 相似文献

Abstract: The injection of phorbol esters into the eyes of dark-adapted teleost fish can mimic light effects in the retina and induces corresponding synaptic plasticity of horizontal cells (HCs). It is therefore very likely that protein kinase C (PKC) mediates light-induced synaptic plasticity. In the present study, we investigated the distribution of PKC, the phorbol ester receptor, in isolated HCs and in the whole retina by using tritiated phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate ([3 H]PDBu). The binding characteristics analyzed for HC homogenates and retinal homogenates revealed that [3 H]PDBu binding is time dependent, specific, saturable, and reversible. Binding sites in HCs displayed a dissociation constant of 11.5 n M and a total number of 2.8 pmol/mg of protein. Autoradiography revealed that [3 H]PDBu labeling is present in all retinal layers, including HCs, where it is associated with the somata. Furthermore, the treatment with PDBu strongly affected the endogenous phosphorylation of several membrane, cytosolic, and HC proteins and led to PKC activation as measured by H1 histone phosphorylation. In HCs, the treatment with PDBu in particular affected the amount of 32 P incorporated into a group of phosphoproteins (68, 56/58, 47, 28, and 15 kDa) that were recently shown to be affected by light adaptation. These proteins might therefore be considered as important components of the observed morphological and physiological synaptic plasticity of HCs in the course of light adaptation. 相似文献

The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade transduces multiple extracellular signals from cell surface to nucleus and is employed in cellular responses to cellular stresses and apoptotic regulation. The involvement of the p38 MAPK cascade in opioid- and opioid receptor-like receptor-1 (ORL1) receptor-mediated signal transduction was examined in NG108-15 neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid cells. Stimulation of endogenous delta-opioid receptor (DOR) or ORL1 resulted in activation of p38 MAPK. It also induced the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), another member of the MAPK family, with slower kinetics. Activation of p38 MAPK was abolished by selective antagonists of DOR or ORL1, pretreatment with pertussis toxin, or SB203580, a specific inhibitor of p38 MAPK. Inhibition of p38 MAPK had no significant effect on opioid-induced ERK activation, indicating that p38 MAPK activity was not required for ERK activation, though its stimulation preceded ERK activation. Inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA) strongly diminished p38 activation mediated by DOR or ORL1 but had no significant effect on ERK activation, and protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors potentiated stimulation of p38 while inhibiting activation of ERKs. Taken together, our results provide the first evidence for coupling of DOR and ORL1 to the p38 MAPK cascade and clearly demonstrate that receptor-mediated activation of p38 MAPK both involves PKA and is negatively regulated by PKC. 相似文献

Dopamine synthesis rate was measured in striatal synaptosomes. Removal of Na+ increased synthesis rate; this was blocked in Ca2+-free medium and by addition of the Ca2+/calmodulin inhibitor N-6-aminohexyl-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W7). The increase in dopamine synthesis rate caused by the addition of the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorboI-13-acetate (TPA) was blocked by the protein kinase C inhibitor polymyxin B. K+-stimulated synthesis was unchanged in Ca2+-free medium or by addition of W7; it was blocked by polymyxin B. The effect of 50 mM K+ was additive with that of 8-Br cyclic AMP and of Na+ removal; the combined effect of 50 mM K+ and TPA was no greater than that of either alone. These results suggest that stimulation of dopamine synthesis in striatal synaptosomes by 50 mM K+ is mediated by protein kinase C. 相似文献

Abstract: Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF) was recently reported to function as a neurotrophic factor in the CNS. To investigate the intracellular signal pathways after activation of the HGF receptor c-Met in primary cultured rat neocortical cells, in vitro kinase assays were performed. HGF stimulation enhances the phosphorylation of endogenous 80- and 45-kDa substrates. Studies with protein kinase inhibitors and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate showed that protein kinase C (PKC) is activated intracellularly. The 80-kDa protein was identified to be the major PKC substrate MARCKS. Although four PKC subspecies, PKCα, PKCε, PKCγ, and PKCλ, were expressed in the cells, only PKCα, PKCε, and PKCγ were selectively translocated in the plasma membrane after HGF stimulation. As expected from these three PKC subspecies, phosphorylation of phospholipase Cγ1 (PLCγ1) but not phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase was enhanced, although the stimulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor induced phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In contrast to the neocortical cells, HGF did not enhance phosphorylation of PLCγ1 in primary astrocytes. We also found that activated PKC(s) served as a major mitogen-activated protein kinase activator in this pathway. These findings suggest that HGF exerts neurotrophic effects through selective phosphorylation of PLCγ1 and activation of distinct PKC subspecies in neocortical cells, most likely neurons. 相似文献

Abstract: The effect of inhibition and down-regulation of protein kinase C (PKC) subtypes α, ε, and ζ on noradrenaline (NA) secretion from human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells was investigated. The PKC inhibitor Ro 31-7549 inhibited carbachol-evoked NA release (IC50 0.6 µ M ) but not 100 m M K+ -evoked release. In addition, Ro 31-7549 inhibited the enhancement of carbachol- and K+ -evoked release after pretreatment with 12- O -tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA; 100 n M ) for 8 min, with IC50 values of 0.7 and 2.4 µ M , respectively. Immunoblotting studies showed that prolonged exposure (48 h) of SH-SY5Y cells to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) or bryostatin-1 caused down-regulation of PKC-α and PKC-ε but not PKC-ζ. Under these conditions, the acute TPA enhancement of NA release was inhibited. Moreover, the inhibition of TPA-enhanced secretion was also apparent after only 2-h exposure to either PDBu or bryostatin-1, conditions that caused down-regulation of PKC-α, but not PKC-ε or ζ. The PKC inhibitor Gö-6976 (2 µ M ), which has been shown to inhibit selectively PKC-α and β in vitro, also inhibited the TPA enhancement of carbachol- and K+ -evoked NA release by >50%. These data suggest that in SH-SY5Y cells, the ability of TPA to enhance carbachol- and K+ -evoked NA secretion is due to activation of PKC-\ga. 相似文献

Calcium Influx Through AMPA Receptors and Through Calcium Channels Is Regulated by Protein Kinase C in Cultured Retina Amacrine-Like Cells 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2

Abstract: The functional modulation of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) receptors by protein kinase C (PKC) was investigated in cultures enriched in retinal amacrine-like cells. The kainate-evoked [Ca2+ ]i increase is due to Ca2+ entry through open AMPA receptor channels, because it was blocked by the active isomer of a 2,3-benzodiazepine (LY 303070), an AMPA receptor antagonist. The AMPA receptor response to kainate was potentiated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, which specifically stimulates PKC, and it was decreased by bisindolylmaleimide I, a selective inhibitor of PKC, as well as by PKC down-regulation. The results indicate not only that the AMPA receptor activation has a PKC requirement, but also that PKC amplifies maximal receptor activation by 100 µ M kainate. The effect of PKC activation or inhibition on voltage-gated Ca2+ -channel activity was also investigated. Activation of PKC caused inhibition of Ca2+ channels, and the same effect was produced by inhibition of PKC, whereas the inactive analogue of the phorbol ester did not affect channel activity. Our results show an important role for PKC in regulating the function of both AMPA receptors and Ca2+ channels in cultured retina cells. 相似文献

Abstract: The effects of D1 and D2 dopamine ligands on protein kinase C (PKC) activity were examined in synaptoneurosomes. Incubation with D1 agonists (SKF 38393, fenodopam), in the presence of calcium, decreased the soluble and increased the particulate PKC activity. These effects were reversed by SCH 23390, which by itself had the opposite effect of increasing the soluble and decreasing the particulate PKC activity. In contrast, incubation with the D2 agonists [LY 171555, (+)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)- N - n -propylpiperidine, RU 24213] increased the soluble and decreased the particulate PKC activity. These effects were reversed by sulpiride. (−)-3-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)- N - n -propylpiperidine had a D2 antagonist profile. Apomorphine showed a biphasic dose-response change; i.e., it decreased particulate PKC activity at the D2 receptor at low concentrations (0.1 µ M ) and increased it at the D1 receptor at higher concentrations (10 µ M ). Pretreatment with tetrodotoxin or omission of calcium in the incubation medium did not alter the responses of the D2 agonists, but it reversed the changes in PKC activity induced by the D1 agonists and converted the biphasic response of apomorphine to a monophasic inhibition. These results indicate that (1) D1 and D2 dopamine receptors are negatively coupled to PKC and (2) the increase in particulate PKC activity seen with the D1 drugs in the presence of calcium is mediated indirectly via a transneuronal effect. 相似文献

We examined the short-term regulation of the phosphorylation of the mid-sized neurofilament subunit (NF-M) by kinases which were activated in rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells by nerve growth factor (NGF) and/or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA). We found that NGF and TPA, alone or in combination, increased (a) the incorporation of [32P]Pi into NF-M and (b) the rate of conversion of NF-M from a poorly phosphorylated to a more highly phosphorylated form. This was not due to increased synthesis of NF-M, because NGF alone did not increase NF-M synthesis and TPA alone or TPA and NGF together inhibited the synthesis of NF-M. Further, an increase in calcium/phospholipid-dependent kinase (PKC) activity resulting from the treatment of PC12 cells with NGF and TPA was observed concomitant with the increased phosphorylation of NF-M. This PKC activity was determined to be derived from the PKC alpha and PKC beta isozymes. Finally, when PC12 cells were rendered PKC-deficient by treatment with 1 muM TPA for 24 h, NGF maintained the ability to induce an increase in NF-M phosphorylation, though not to the level attained in cells which were not PKC-deficient. These data suggest that NGF with or without TPA stimulates NF-M phosphorylation as a result of a complex series of events which include PKC-independent and PKC-dependent pathways. 相似文献

Abstract: The involvement of protein kinase C and its interaction with interleukin 1β in the control of interleukin 6 release by cortical astrocytes was studied. The blockade of protein kinase C catalytic domain, by staurosporine, as well as the desensitization of protein kinase C by short-term phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate pretreatment, increased the basal release of interleukin 6 by rat cortical astrocytes, whereas calphostin C, an antagonist of phorbol ester binding on protein kinase C regulatory domain, did not affect the basal release of the cytokine. The activation of protein kinase C by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate enhanced concentration- and time-dependently interleukin 6 release. This stimulatory action of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate was significantly reduced by staurosporine, by calphostin C, and by the desensitization of protein kinase C. Interleukin 1β increased interleukin 6 release in a concentration-related manner. Protein kinase C inhibition, by staurosporine or desensitization, potentiated severalfold, whereas calphostin C reduced interleukin 1β stimulation of interleukin 6 release. The treatment of cortical astrocytes with both interleukin 1β (3 ng/ml) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (10 nM) caused a synergistic stimulation of interleukin 6 release and its gene expression, an effect that was not relieved by either 20 nM staurosporine or by calphostin C but was slightly affected by protein kinase C desensitization. In conclusion, our data show that in rat cortical astrocytes the basal release of interleukin 6 is under a tonic inhibition exerted by a protein kinase C isoform or isoforms sensitive to blockade by staurosporine and desensitization but insensitive to calphostin C. Interleukin 1β stimulated interleukin 6 secretion via a mechanism that is also negatively modulated by a protein kinase C isoform or isoforms sensitive to staurosporine and desensitization. Finally, we showed that interleukin 1β and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate synergistically stimulated interleukin 6 release and its gene expression, operating in a manner insensitive to protein kinase C blockers and slightly reduced by protein kinase C desensitization. 相似文献

Abstract: GT1-7 cells, a clonal line derived from specific tumours of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-secreting neurons from mouse hypothalamus, were used as a model system to investigate the cellular mechanisms underlying the histamine H1 receptor-mediated desensitisation. GT1-7 cells contain H1 receptors, acute stimulation of which leads to the desensitisation of histamine-mediated calcium mobilisation and is manifest as a concurrent reduction in both the magnitude of the calcium transient and of the sustained phase. Acute pretreatment of the cells with the phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, can also ablate the histamine-stimulated calcium mobilisation. In addition, acute H1 -receptor stimulation and acute phorbol ester treatment result in the attenuation of histamine-mediated inositol phosphate production. Receptor desensitisation resulting from acute stimulation with histamine is not affected by inhibiting protein kinase C (PKC) activity with Ro 31-7549 or staurosporine. In contrast, the desensitisation of H1 -receptor responses induced by direct activation of protein kinase C is preventable by PKC inhibitors. Thus, these results imply that a PKC-dependent mechanism and PKC-independent mechanism are involved in the H1 -receptor desensitisation cascade in GT1-7 cells and do not support the involvement of PKC in the receptor-mediated desensitisation of H1 receptor-stimulated calcium and inositol phosphate responses. 相似文献

Our previous studies showed that dopamine inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase activity in acutely dissociated neurons from striatum. In the present study, we have found that in this preparation, dopamine inhibited significantly (by approximately 25%) the activity of the alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms, but not the alpha1 isoform, of Na+,K+-ATPase. Dopamine, via D1 receptors, activates cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in striatal neurons. Dopamine is also known to activate the calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) in a number of different cell types. The PKC activator phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate reduced the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase alpha3 and/or alpha2 isoforms (by approximately 30%) as well as the alpha1 isoform (by approximately 15%). However, dopamine-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity was unaffected by calphostin C, a PKC inhibitor. Dopamine did not affect the phosphorylation of Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms at the PKA-dependent phosphorylation site. Phorbol ester treatment did not alter the phosphorylation of alpha2 or alpha3 isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase in neostriatal neurons but did increase the phosphorylation of the alpha1 isoform. Thus, in rat neostriatal neurons, treatment with either dopamine or PKC activators results in inhibition of the activity of specific (alpha3 and/or alpha2) isoforms of Na+,K+-ATPase, but this is not apparently mediated through direct phosphorylation of the enzyme. In addition, PKC is unlikely to mediate inhibition of rat Na+,K+-ATPase activity by dopamine in neostriatal neurons. 相似文献

Abstract: Exposure of human SK-N-MC neurotumor cells to 4β-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) increased isoproterenol stimulation of cyclic AMP levels by severalfold. This potentiation was blocked by inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) and did not occur in cells in which PKC had been down-regulated. PMA treatment also enhanced the stimulation by dopamine, cholera toxin, and forskolin. Thus, the effect of PMA on the adenylylcyclase system was postreceptor and involved either the guanine nucleotide binding regulatory (G) proteins or the cyclase itself. As PMA treatment did not impair the inhibition of isoproterenol stimulation by neuropeptide Y, an involvement of the inhibitory G protein Gi was unlikely. Cholate extracts of membranes from control and PMA-treated cells were equally effective in the reconstitution of adenylylcyclase activity in S49 cyc? membranes, which lack the stimulatory G protein subunit Gsα; thus, Gs did not appear to be the target of PMA action. Membranes from PMA-treated cells exhibited increased adenylylcyclase activity to all stimulators including Mn2+ and Mn2+ plus forskolin. In addition, activity was increased when control membranes were incubated with ATP and purified PKC from rat brain. This is consistent with a direct effect of PKC on the adenylylcyclase catalyst in SK-N-MC cells. PMA treatment also resulted in a shift to less sensitivity in the Kact for isoproterenol but not for dopamine or CGP-12177 (a β3-adrenergic agonist) stimulation. Thus, the β1 but not the D1 or β3 receptors were being desensitized by PKC activation. Analysis of SK-N-MC cells by western blotting with antibodies against different PKC isozymes revealed that both the α and ζ isozymes were present in these cells. Whereas PKC-α was activated and translocated from cytosol to membrane by phorbol esters, the ζ isozyme was not. Thus, PKC-α, which has been implicated in desensitization in other cell lines, also appears to potentiate adenylylcyclase activity. 相似文献

In the present study, we examined the effect of vasopressin on the induction of the low-molecular-weight heat shock proteins heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) and αB-crystallin in an aortic smooth muscle cell line, A10 cells. Vasopressin induced a time-dependent accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin. The stimulatory effects of vasopressin were dose-dependent over the range 0.1 nmol/L to 0.1 μmol/L. The EC50values for vasopressin were 2 (HSP27) and 4 nmol/L (αB-crystallin). Vasopressin induced increases in the levels of the mRNAs for HSP27 and αB-crystallin. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), a protein kinase C (PKC)-activating phorbol ester, induced an accumulation of HSP27 (EC50, 20 nmol/L) and αB-crystallin (EC50, 2 nmol/L). In contrast, 4α-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, a non-PKC-activating phorbol ester, had no such effect. Staurosporine and calphostin C, inhibitors of PKC, significantly reduced the vasopressin-induced accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin as well as that induced by TPA. BAPTA/AM and TMB-8, inhibitors of intracellular Ca2+mobilization, significantly reduced the vasopressin-induced accumulation of HSP27 and αB-crystallin. These results strongly suggest that vasopressin stimulates the induction of HSP27 and αB-crystallin via PKC activation in vascular smooth muscle cells and that this effect of vasopressin is dependent on intracellular Ca2+mobilization. 相似文献

Abstract: Stimulation of cultured cerebellar granule cells with N -methyl- d -aspartate (NMDA) or kainic acid (KA) leads to activation of activator protein-1 (AP-1) DNA-binding activity, which can be monitored by an increase in 12- O -tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)-responsive element (TRE)-binding activity, in concert with c- fos induction. For this increase in TRE-binding activity, Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane is essential. Treatment of cells with an intracellular Ca2+ chelator, BAPTA-AM, abolished this increase. Close correspondence between the dose-response curves of 45 Ca2+ uptake and TRE-binding activity by NMDA or KA suggested that Ca2+ influx not only triggered sequential activation of Ca2+ -signaling processes leading to the increase in TRE-binding activity, but also controlled its increased level. Stimulation of non-NMDA receptors by KA mainly caused Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, whereas stimulation of NMDA receptors caused Ca2+ influx through NMDA-gated ion channels. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors staurosporine and calphostin C inhibited the increase in TRE-binding activity caused by NMDA and KA at the same concentration at which they inhibited that caused by TPA. Furthermore, down-regulation of PKC inhibited the increase in TRE-binding activity by NMDA and KA. Thus, a common pathway that includes PKC could, at least in part, be involved in the Ca2+ -signaling pathways for the increase in TRE-binding activity coupled with the activation of NMDA- and non-NMDA receptors. 相似文献

The effects of phorbol esters [phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDB), 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), and phorbol 13-acetate] were investigated on the release of [3H]norepinephrine, 45Ca2+ accumulation, and protein kinase C activity in cultured sympathetic neurons of the chick embryo. Sympathetic neurons derived from 10-day-old chick embryo were cultured in serum-free medium supplemented with insulin, transferrin, and nerve growth factor. After 3 days, neurons were loaded with [3H]-norepinephrine and the release of [3H]norepinephrine was determined before and after electrical stimulation. Stimulation at 1 Hz for 15 s increased the release of [3H]-norepinephrine over the nonstimulation period. Stimulation-evoked release gradually declined with time during subsequent stimulation periods. Incubation of neurons in Ca2+-free Krebs solution containing 1 mM EGTA completely blocked stimulation-evoked release of [3H]-norepinephrine. Stimulation-evoked release of [3H]-norepinephrine was markedly facilitated by 3 and 10 nM PDB or TPA. The spontaneous release was also enhanced by PDB and TPA. The net accumulation of 45Ca2+ during stimulation of sympathetic neurons was increased by two- to fourfold in the presence of PDB or TPA. PDB at 1-100 nM produced a concentration-dependent increase in the activation of protein kinase C. PDB at 30 nM increased the activity of protein kinase C of the particulate fraction from 0.09 to 0.58 pmol/min/mg protein. There was no significant change in protein kinase C activity of the cytosolic fraction (0.14 pmol/min/mg versus 0.13 pmol/min/mg protein). The ratio of the particulate to cytosolic protein kinase C increased from a control value of 0.62 to 4.39 after treatment with 30 nM PDB. TPA (10 and 30 nM) also increased protein kinase C activity of the particulate fraction by six- to eightfold. Phorbol 13-acetate had no effect on protein kinase C activity, [3H]norepinephrine release, and 45Ca2+ accumulation. These results provide direct evidence that activation of protein kinase C enhances Ca2+ accumulation, which in turn leads to the facilitation of transmitter release in sympathetic neurons. 相似文献
