When hepatocytes were incubated with [32P]Pi, the kinetics for the labelling of the monoester phosphate groups of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate were similar to each other and slightly slower than that for the labelling of the gamma-phosphate of ATP. Analysis of the water-soluble 3H-labelled materials derived from [3H]inositol-labelled hepatocytes revealed that, in addition to inositol and its mono-, bis- and tris-phosphates (Ins, InsP, InsP2 and InsP3), these cells contained two unidentified radioactive compounds which co-eluted with InsP on anion-exchange chromatography. When [3H]inositol-labelled hepatocytes were stimulated with 0.23 microM-vasopressin in the presence of 10 mM-Li+, there was an accumulation of radioactivity in InsP, InsP2 and InsP3 but not in Ins or the two unidentified compounds. Further analysis of these inositol phosphates by h.p.l.c. revealed that vasopressin also stimulates the accumulation of inositol tetrakisphosphate (InsP4) in these cells. Vasopressin-stimulated InsP and InsP2 accumulations were maximal in the presence of 1-10 mM-Li+ but InsP3 accumulation continued to increase up to 50 mM-Li+. Accumulated inositol phosphates were retained within the cell. Li+ from 1 to 50 mM did not influence the extent of vasopressin-stimulated inositol lipid degradation in hepatocytes. In the absence of Li+, radioactivity in vasopressin-stimulated hepatocytes accumulated almost entirely in free inositol. The vasopressin-stimulated accumulation of inositol phosphates in the presence of 10 mM-Li+ was abolished by a V1-vasopressin antagonist. Inositol phosphate accumulation was not influenced by ionophore A23187, dimethyl sulphoxide or indomethacin.  相似文献

The dependence of phospholipase C activity on the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was studied in intact liver cells treated with the Ca2+-mobilizing hormone vasopressin, or not so treated. Phospholipase C (PLC) activity was estimated from the formation of [3H]inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) and the degradation of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2). The [Ca2+]i of the cells was clamped from 29 to 1130 nM by quin2 loading. This wide concentration range was obtained by loading the hepatocytes with a high concentration of the Ca2+ indicator in low-Ca2+ medium or by using the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin in medium containing Ca2+. In resting cells, in which [Ca2+]i was 193 nM, treatment with 0.1 microM-vasopressin which stimulates liver PLC maximally, tripled InsP3 content and raised [Ca2+]i to 2 microM within 15 s. Lowering [Ca2+]i partially decreased cell InsP3 content as well as the ability of vasopressin to stimulate InsP3 formation maximally. At 29 nM, the lowest Ca2+ concentration obtained in isolated liver cells, basal InsP3 content was 64% of that measured in control cells. Addition of vasopressin no longer affected [Ca2+]i, but significantly increased InsP3 by 200%, although less than in the controls (300%). The maintenance of the greater part of the PLC response at constant [Ca2+]i indicated that, in the liver, InsP3 formation does not result from an increase in [Ca2+]i. The effects of lowering [Ca2+]i were reversible. When low cell [Ca2+]i was restored to a normal value, resting InsP3 content and the ability of vasopressin to stimulate InsP3 formation maximally by 300% were also restored. Raising [Ca2+]i from 193 to 1130 nM had little effect on the InsP3 content or the vasopressin-mediated increase in InsP3. In agreement with the stimulation of PLC activity by vasopressin, cell [3H]PtdInsP2 and total PtdInsP2 were degraded by application of this hormone for 15 s. In contrast, when [Ca2+]i was lowered to 29 nM, basal [3H]PtdInsP2 and total PtdInsP2 were increased by about 30%, [3H]PtdInsP2 was further increased by vasopressin, but total PtdInsP2 was not changed. These results show that, in intact hepatocytes, PLC is little affected by [Ca2+]i concentrations above 193 nM, but is partially dependent on Ca2+ below that value. They suggest that, in addition to activating PLC activity, vasopressin might stimulate PtdInsP2 synthesis, presumably via phosphatidylinositol-phosphate kinase, and that this pathway might predominate in cells with low [Ca2+]i.  相似文献

In the rat mammary tumoral cell line (WRK1 cells), vasopressin was previously described to stimulate a phospholipase C. In this study, we have analysed the effect of vasopressin both on intracellular calcium mobilization and on the accumulation of inositol phosphates. Maximal concentration of vasopressin simultaneously induces an accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and a rise of intracellular calcium concentration. Both these two phenomena are transient and exhibit similar kinetics. A sustained accumulation of InsP2, Ins(1,3,4)P3 and InsP are observed later. Yet no stimulation of InsP4 can be objectified. These results indicate that Ins(1,4,5)P3 is the major inositol phosphate involved in intracellular calcium mobilization.  相似文献

The accumulation of inositol phosphates in WRK 1 cells, stimulated with a range of vasopressin concentrations, was diminished by prior exposure to cholera toxin or forskolin, whilst that observed in the presence of maximal concentrations of the hormone was enhanced in pertussis-toxin-treated cells. In the presence of [32P]NAD+, both cholera toxin and pertussis toxin provoked the labelling of peptides with approximate Mrs of 45,000 and 41,000 respectively in the membranes of WRK 1 cells. Exposure to cholera toxin or forskolin for 15-18 h enhanced cyclic AMP accumulation in these cells. The concentrations of these agents which provoked half-maximal cyclic AMP accumulation were similar to those required to diminish receptor-mediated inositol phosphate accumulation by 50%. In contrast, half-maximal ADP-ribosylation of the 45,000Mr peptide needed 100-fold greater concentrations of the toxin than were effective in provoking half-maximal inhibition of inositol phosphate accumulation. Cholera toxin or forskolin also reduced the maximal specific binding, to intact WRK 1 cells, of both [3H][Arg8]vasopressin and the V1a antagonist [3H][beta-mercapto-beta,beta-cyclopentamethylenepropionic acid,O-methyl-Tyr2, Arg8]vasopressin. The kinetics for the loss of this binding capacity following cholera-toxin treatment were very similar to those describing the diminution of vasopressin-stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation in the same cells.  相似文献

Incubation of human platelets with myo-[3H]inositol in a low-glucose Tyrode's solution containing MnCl2 enhanced the labelling of phosphoinositides about sevenfold and greatly facilitated the measurement of [3H]inositol phosphates formed by the activation of phospholipase C. Labelled platelets were permeabilized by high-voltage electric discharges and equilibrated at 0 degree C with ATP, Ca2+ buffers and guanine nucleotides, before incubation in the absence or presence of thrombin. Incubation of these platelets with ATP in the presence or absence of Ca2+ ions led to the conversion of [3H]phosphatidylinositol to [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate ([3H]PtdInsP2). At a pCa of 6, addition of 100 microM GTP[gamma S] both prevented this accumulation of [3H]PtdInsP2 and stimulated its breakdown; the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates was increased ninefold. After 5 min these comprised 70% [3H]inositol monophosphate ([3H]InsP), 28% [3H]inositol bisphosphate ([3H]InsP2) and 2% [3H]inositol trisphosphate ([3H]InsP3). In shorter incubations higher percentages of [3H]InsP2 and [3H]InsP3 were found. In the absence of added Ca2+, the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates was decreased by over 90%. Incubation of permeabilized platelets with GTP[gamma S] in the presence of 10 mM Li+ decreased the accumulation of [3H]InsP and increased that of [3H]InsP2, without affecting [3H]InsP3 levels. Addition of unlabelled InsP3 decreased the intracellular hydrolysis of exogenous [32P]InsP3 but did not trap additional [3H]InsP3. These results and the time course of [3H]inositol phosphate formation suggest that GTP[gamma S] stimulated the action of phospholipase C on a pool of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate that was otherwise converted to [3H]PtdInsP2 and that much less hydrolysis of [3H]phosphatidylinositol to [3H]InsP or of [3H]PtdInsP2 to [3H]InsP3 occurred. At a pCa of 6, addition of thrombin (2 units/ml) to permeabilized platelets caused small increases in the formation of [3H]InsP and [3H]InsP2. This action of thrombin was enhanced twofold by 10-100 microM GTP and much more potently by 4-40 microM GTP[gamma S]. In the presence of the latter, thrombin also increased [3H]InsP3. The total formation of [3H]inositol phosphates by permeabilized platelets incubated with thrombin and GTP[gamma S] was comparable with that observed on addition of thrombin alone to intact platelets. However, HPLC of the [3H]inositol phosphates formed indicated that about 75% of the [3H]InsP accumulating in permeabilized platelets was the 4-phosphate, whereas in intact platelets stimulated by thrombin, up to 80% was the 1-phosphate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Inositol phospholipid metabolism in human platelets stimulated by ADP   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
ADP-induced changes in inositol phospholipids, phosphatidic acid and inositol phosphates of human platelets have been studied in detail, using not only 32P labelling, but also by examining changes in amounts of the phospholipids, their labelling with [3H]glycerol and their specific radioactivities; changes in the labelling of inositol phosphates in platelets prelabelled with [3H]inositol were also measured. During the early (10 s) stage of reversible ADP-induced primary aggregation in a medium containing fibrinogen and with a concentration of Ca2+ in the physiological range (2 mM), the amounts of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdInsP) decreased (by 11.2 +/- 4.9% and 11.3 +/- 5.3%, respectively) while the labelling, but not the amount, of phosphatidic acid increased. The decreases do not appear to be attributable to the action of phospholipase C because the specific radioactivity of phosphatidic acid labelling with [3H]glycerol was not significantly increased at 10 s (although the initial specific radioactivities of the inositol phospholipids and PtdCho were more than double that of phosphatidic acid), and no increases in the labelling of inositol trisphosphate (InsP3), inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) or inositol phosphate (InsP) were detectable at 10 s. Shifts in the interconversions between PtdInsP2 and PtdInsP, and PtdInsP and PtdIns may occur. By 30 to 60 s, when deaggregation was beginning, the amounts of PtdInsP2, PtdInsP and phosphatidic acid were not different from those in unstimulated platelets, but large increases in the 32P-labelling and [3H]glycerol labelling of phosphatidic acid were observed. Formation of [3H]inositol-labelled InsP3 was not detectable at any time in association with ADP-induced primary aggregation, indicating that degradation of PtdInsP2 by phospholipase C is not appreciably stimulated by ADP. These findings were compared with those obtained when platelets were aggregated by ADP in a medium without added of Ca2+ in which secondary aggregation associated with thromboxane A2 (TXA2) formation and release of granule contents occurs. At 10 s (during primary aggregation) the changes were similar in the two media. At 30 s and 60 s (during secondary aggregation in the low-Ca2+ medium), the increases in PtdInsP2, PtdInsP and phosphatidic acid in platelets suspended in the absence of added Ca2+ were larger than those in platelets suspended in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+. In the absence of added Ca2+, ADP-induced increases in the labelling of InsP3, InsP2 and InsP which were probably due to the effects of TXA2 since they were abolished by aspirin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] of turkey erythrocytes were labelled by using either [32P]Pi or [3H]inositol. Although there was little basal release of inositol phosphates from membranes purified from labelled cells, in the presence of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) the rate of accumulation of inositol bis-, tris- and tetrakis-phosphate (InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4) was increased 20-50-fold. The enhanced rate of accumulation of 3H-labelled inositol phosphates was linear for up to 20 min; owing to decreases in 32P specific radioactivity of phosphoinositides during incubation of membranes with unlabelled ATP, the accumulation of 32P-labelled inositol phosphates was linear for only 5 min. In the absence of ATP and a nucleotide-regenerating system, no InsP4 was formed, and the overall inositol phosphate response to GTP[S] was decreased. Analyses of phosphoinositides during incubation with ATP indicated that interconversions of PtdIns to PtdIns4P and PtdIns4P to PtdIns(4,5)P2 occurred to maintain PtdIns(4,5)P2 concentrations; GTP[S]-induced inositol phosphate formation was accompanied by a corresponding decrease in 32P- and 3H-labelled PtdIns, PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2. In the absence of ATP, only GTP[S]-induced decreases in PtdIns(4,5)P2 occurred. Since inositol monophosphate was not formed under any condition, PtdIns is not a substrate for the phospholipase C. The production of InsP2 was decreased markedly, but not blocked, under conditions where Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphomonoesterase activity in the preparation was inhibited. Thus the predominant substrate of the GTP[S]-activated phospholipase C of turkey erythrocyte membranes is PtdIns(4,5)P2. Ins(1,4,5)P3 was the major product of this reaction; only a small amount of Ins(1:2-cyclic, 4,5)P3 was released. The effects of ATP on inositol phosphate formation apparently involve the contributions of two phenomena. First, the P2-receptor agonist 2-methylthioadenosine triphosphate (2MeSATP) greatly increased inositol phosphate formation and decreased [3H]PtdIns4P and [3H]PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the presence of a low (0.1 microM) concentration of GTP[S]. ATP over the concentration range 0-100 microM produced effects in the presence of 0.1 microM-GTP[S] essentially identical with those observed with 2MeSATP, suggesting that the effects of low concentrations of ATP are also explained by a stimulation of P2-receptors. Higher concentrations of ATP also increase inositol phosphate formation, apparently by supporting the synthesis of substrate phospholipids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Vasopressin stimulates the liberation of labelled inositol phosphate in partially purified plasma membranes prepared from myo-[3H]inositol prelabelled WRK1 cells. This stimulatory effect was very rapid (165% stimulation of inositol trisphosphate accumulation after a 10 s incubation period in the presence of 1 microM vasopressin), concentration dependent (EC50 = 12 nM) and was abolished by an antagonist of the vasopressor response to vasopressin. GTP, even at high concentrations (0.1 mM), did not increase inositol phosphate release: it was found to be absolutely necessary for hormonal stimulation of phospholipase C activity. Non-hydrolysable analogues of GTP may also stimulate this enzyme activity.  相似文献

The requirement of Ca2+ for the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) or the accumulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) in macrophages stimulated with fMet-Leu-Phe was examined using [32P]Pi or [3H]inositol-labeled cells. The dependence on Ca2+ of inositol-trisphosphate phosphatase was also examined. The application of 1 X 10(-8) M fMet-Leu-Phe caused a rapid decrease in the amount of PtdInsP2 to 70% of the control within 10 s, and the decrease was reverted to the control level by prolonged incubation. The decrease in the amount of PtdInsP2 accompanied the accumulation of phosphatidic acid and of InsP3, indicating that the loss of PtdInsP2 is due to phosphodiesteric breakdown. The dose-dependence of fMet-Leu-Phe or its analog on the hydrolysis of PtdInsP2 was much the same as that of the increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration in macrophages. The loss of PtdInsP2 as induced by fMet-Leu-Phe was similarly observed in macrophages treated with ionophore A23187 in the absence of external Ca2+ for 10 min. InsP3 was degraded by the particulate or cytosol fraction prepared from macrophages, and the activity of inositol-trisphosphate phosphatase in the particulate fraction was higher than that in the cytosol fraction. The enzyme in the cytosol fraction required Mg2+ for activity, and was activated by free Ca2+ concentrations ranging from 10(-7) to 10(-6) M in the presence of 1 mM MgCl2.  相似文献

Vascular tissues such as rat aorta and mesenteric arteries are extensively used experimentally for the study of cardiovascular diseases. To further our understanding of the signal transduction mechanisms involved in responses to several potent vasoconstrictors, such as [Arg8]vasopressin (AVP), endothelin 1 (ET-1), and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha), we have investigated the time course for production of inositol monophosphate (InsP1), bisphosphate (InsP2), and trisphosphate (InsP3) in response to these agonists as well as their relative potency for phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis. Time-course studies of production of the different inositol phosphates in response to AVP and PGF2 alpha showed an early increase after 15-30 s of stimulation. Thereafter InsP3 declined towards baseline, with a secondary increase towards steady state after 5-10 min. Rapid turnover of InsP3 was reflected by accumulation of InsP1 and InsP2 in the presence of LiCl (20 mM) to inhibit monophosphatases. After 15-30 min of stimulation, there was accumulation of the Ins(1,3,4)P3 isomer. All three agonists induced greater accumulation of InsP2 in mesenteric arteries than in thoracic aorta, suggesting that turnover of Ins(1,4,5)P3 may be faster in the former than in the latter. The accumulation of total inositol phosphates induced by maximum concentrations of ET-1 was greater than in response to AVP or PGF2 alpha. Dose-response curves showed that the rank order of potency for stimulation of production of inositol phosphates was AVP > ET-1 > PGF2 alpha, similar to the sensitivity of blood vessels to these agents. Comparison of responses to ET-1 and ET-3 showed that the receptors stimulated by endothelins were of the isopeptide selective ETA subtype.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

We have shown previously that exposure of a non-transformed continuous line of rat liver epithelial (WB) cells to epidermal growth factor (EGF), adrenaline, angiotensin II or [Arg8]vasopressin results in an accumulation of the inositol phosphates InsP1, InsP2 and InsP3 [Hepler, Earp & Harden (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 7610-7619]. Studies were carried out with WB cells to determine whether the EGF receptor and other, non-tyrosine kinase, hormone receptors stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis by common, overlapping or separate pathways. The time courses for accumulation of inositol phosphates in response to angiotensin II and EGF were markedly different. Whereas angiotensin II stimulated a very rapid accumulation of inositol phosphates (maximal by 30 s), increases in the levels of inositol phosphates in response to EGF were measurable only following a 30 s lag period; maximal levels were attained by 7-8 min. Chelation of extracellular Ca2+ with EGTA did not modify this relative difference between angiotensin II and EGF in the time required to attain maximal phospholipase C activation. Under experimental conditions in which agonist-induced desensitization no longer occurred in these cells, the inositol phosphate responses to EGF and angiotensin II were additive, whereas those to angiotensin II and [Arg8]vasopressin were not additive. In crude WB lysates, angiotensin II, [Arg8]vasopressin and adrenaline each stimulated inositol phosphate formation in a guanine-nucleotide-dependent manner. In contrast, EGF failed to stimulate inositol phosphate formation in WB lysates in the presence or absence of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), even though EGF retained the capacity to bind to and stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of its own receptor. Pertussis toxin, at concentrations that fully ADP-ribosylate and functionally inactivate the inhibitory guanine-nucleotide regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase (Gi), had no effect on the capacity of EGF or hormones to stimulate inositol phosphate accumulation. In intact WB cells, the capacity of EGF, but not angiotensin II, to stimulate inositol phosphate accumulation was correlated with its capacity to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of the 148 kDa isoenzyme of phospholipase C. Taken together, these findings suggest that, whereas angiotensin II, [Arg8]vasopressin and alpha 1-adrenergic receptors are linked to activation of one or more phospholipase(s) C by an unidentified G-protein(s), the EGF receptor stimulates phosphoinositide hydrolysis by a different pathway, perhaps as a result of its capacity to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma.  相似文献

The effects of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate(InsP3) on the Ca2+ release from ATP-dependent Ca2+-transporting microsomes prepared from ox platelets were investigated. Under optimal conditions, both PtdInsP2 and InsP3 released Ca2+ from the microsomes in a similar dose-dependent manner. However, the maximal amount of Ca2+ released by InsP3 was almost one-fourth of that released by PtdInsP2. Neither PtdInsP2 nor InsP3 appeared to act as a Ca2+ ionophore since they showed no effect on the Ca2+ content of liposomes prepared from platelet microsomal lipids. InsP3-induced but not PtdInsP2-induced Ca2+ release was decreased with increasing extravesicular Ca2+ from 0.1 microM to 10 microM and it was completely inhibited by 10 microM Ca2+. PtdInsP2-induced but not InsP3-induced Ca2+ release was markedly inhibited by Mg2+, ruthenium red and neomycin. In addition, InsP3 could induce no additional Ca2+ release after the accumulated Ca2+ had been maximally released by PtdInsP2. These results indicate that PtdInsP2 releases Ca2+ from platelet microsomes more effectively than InsP3 by a mechanism distinct from that of InsP3-induced release, and further that InsP3-sensitive microsomes are included within the population of PtdInsP2-sensitive microsomes.  相似文献

To evaluate the impact of suppressing inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) in plants, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cells were transformed with the human type I inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (InsP 5-ptase), an enzyme which specifically hydrolyzes InsP(3). The transgenic cell lines showed a 12- to 25-fold increase in InsP 5-ptase activity in vitro and a 60% to 80% reduction in basal InsP(3) compared with wild-type cells. Stimulation with Mas-7, a synthetic analog of the wasp venom peptide mastoparan, resulted in an approximately 2-fold increase in InsP(3) in both wild-type and transgenic cells. However, even with stimulation, InsP(3) levels in the transgenic cells did not reach wild-type basal values, suggesting that InsP(3) signaling is compromised. Analysis of whole-cell lipids indicated that phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP(2)), the lipid precursor of InsP(3), was greatly reduced in the transgenic cells. In vitro assays of enzymes involved in PtdInsP(2) metabolism showed that the activity of the PtdInsP(2)-hydrolyzing enzyme phospholipase C was not significantly altered in the transgenic cells. In contrast, the activity of the plasma membrane PtdInsP 5 kinase was increased by approximately 3-fold in the transgenic cells. In vivo labeling studies revealed a greater incorporation of (32)P into PtdInsP(2) in the transgenic cells compared with the wild type, indicating that the rate of PtdInsP(2) synthesis was increased. These studies show that the constitutive expression of the human type I InsP 5-ptase in tobacco cells leads to an up-regulation of the phosphoinositide pathway and highlight the importance of PtdInsP(2) synthesis as a regulatory step in this system.  相似文献

Rabbit iris smooth muscle was prelabelled with myo-[3H]inositol for 90 min and the effect of carbachol on the accumulation of inositol phosphates from phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2], phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) and phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) was monitored with anion-exchange chromatography. Carbachol stimulated the accumulation of inositol phosphates and this was blocked by atropine, a muscarinic antagonist, and it was unaffected by 2-deoxyglucose. The data presented demonstrate that, in the iris, carbachol (50 microM) stimulates the rapid breakdown of PtdIns(4,5)P2 into [3H]inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) and diacylglycerol, measured as phosphatidate, and that the accumulation of InsP3 precedes that of [3H]inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) and [3H]inositol phosphate (InsP). This conclusion is based on the following findings. Time course experiments with myo-[3H]inositol revealed that carbachol increased the accumulation of InsP3 by 12% in 15s and by 23% in 30s; in contrast, a significant increase in InsP release was not observed until about 2 min. Time-course experiments with 32P revealed a 10% loss of radioactivity from PtdIns(4,5)P2 and a corresponding 10% increase in phosphatidate labelling by carbachol in 15s; in contrast a significant increase in PtdIns labelling occurred in 5 min. Dose-response studies revealed that 5 microM-carbachol significantly increased (16%) the accumulation of InsP3 whereas a significant increase in accumulation of InsP2 and InsP was observed only at agonist concentrations greater than 10 microM. Studies on the involvement of Ca2+ in the agonist-stimulated breakdown of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the iris revealed the following. Marked stimulation (58-78%) of inositol phosphates accumulation by carbachol in 10 min was observed in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. Like the stimulatory effect of noradrenaline, the ionophore A23187-stimulated accumulation of InsP3 was inhibited by prazosin, an alpha 1-adrenergic blocker, thus suggesting that the ionophore stimulation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 breakdown we reported previously [Akhtar & Abdel-Latif (1978) J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 204, 655-688; Akhtar & Abdel-Latif (1980) Biochem. J. 192, 783-791] was secondary to the release of noradrenaline by the ionophore. The carbachol-stimulated accumulation of inositol phosphates was inhibited by EGTA (0.25 mM) and this inhibition was reversed by excess Ca2+ (1.5 mM), suggesting that EGTA treatment of the tissue chelates extracellular Ca2+ required for polyphosphoinositide phosphodiesterase activity. K+ depolarization, which causes influx of extracellular Ca2+ in smooth muscle, did not change the level of InsP3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Experiments with washed rabbit platelets demonstrate that stimulation with a low concentration of thrombin (0.1 unit/ml), that causes maximal aggregation and partial release of amine granule contents, also causes increased accumulation of [3H]inositol-labelled inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) in the presence of 20 mM-Li+. This concentration of Li+ was found to inhibit the degradation of inositol phosphates by phosphomonoesterases. This result indicates that phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] is degraded early after platelet stimulation with thrombin, although in a previous study we had found no decrease in amount. In the absence of Li+, the labelling of inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) increased more rapidly than that of InsP3, consistent with rapid degradation of InsP3 by phosphomonoesterase. After 30s the increase in InsP2 was augmented by Li+. This increase in InsP2 could have been due to increased degradation of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate or inhibition of breakdown of InsP2 to InsP with a lesser inhibition of breakdown of InsP3 to InsP2. The effect on InsP3 and InsP2 of stimulation of the platelets with 1.0 unit of thrombin/ml was comparable with the effect of the lower concentration of thrombin. Inositol phosphate (InsP) labelling did not increase in response to 0.1 unit of thrombin/ml, but increased when the platelets were stimulated with 1.0 unit of thrombin/ml. Whether the increase in InsP was due to increased degradation of phosphatidylinositol or a greater rate of breakdown of InsP2 to InsP than InsP to inositol cannot be determined in these experiments. These results indicate that degradation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 is an early event in platelet activation by thrombin and that formation of inositol phosphates and 1,2-diacylglycerol rather than a decrease in PtdIns(4,5)P2 may be the important change.  相似文献

The kinetics of polyphosphoinositide breakdown and inositol phosphate formation have been studied in rat cortical synaptosomes labelled in vitro with myo-[2-3H]inositol. Intrasynaptosomal Ca2+ concentrations have been varied by the use of Ca-EGTA buffers or by adding the ionophore A23187 in the presence and absence of 1 mM Ca2+. The former studies have revealed that, at very low (20 nM) intrasynaptosomal free Ca2+ levels, inositol bisphosphate, but not inositol monophosphate levels are reduced. Addition of A23187 in the absence of added Ca2+ gives rise to greatly enhanced inositol bisphosphate accumulation, which is further enhanced if 1 mM Ca2+ is present in the extrasynaptosomal medium. At all time points examined (down to 2 s after adding ionophore), the ratio of inositol trisphosphate/inositol bisphosphate accumulation does not exceed 0.2, and calculations based on inositol bis- and trisphosphate breakdown rates in synaptosomal lysates suggest that only a minority of the inositol bisphosphate arises from degradation of inositol trisphosphate. Addition of ionophore in the presence (but not in the absence) of 1 mM Ca2+ leads to rapid breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) and ATP and slower breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdInsP). The rates of loss of PtdinsP2 and ATP are very highly correlated, suggesting that polyphosphoinositide resynthesis may be limited by ATP availability at high Ca2+ levels. Analysis of 32P-labelled synaptosomes also reveals that A23187 produces Ca2+-dependent losses of PtdInsP2, PtdInsP, ATP, and GTP radioactivity and a marked increase in the radioactivity of a compound distinct from nucleotides or any of the lipid breakdown products tested.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The effects of the muscarinic agonist carbachol, histamine and bradykinin on incorporation of [3H]inositol into the phosphoinositides and the formation of [3H]InsPs were examined in bovine tracheal smooth-muscle (BTSM) slices labelled with [3H]inositol. These agonists result in substantial and dose-related increases in the incorporation of [3H]inositol into the phospholipids. Carbachol and histamine stimulated the incorporation of [3H]inositol into the phospholipids to the same degree, despite histamine being only 35% as effective as carbachol on [3H]InsP accumulation. Histamine and carbachol, at maximal concentrations, were non-additive with respect to both the stimulated incorporation of [3H]inositol and [3H]InsP formation. For carbachol this effect on incorporation was found to occur to a similar extent in PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 as well as PtdIns. The initial effect of carbachol on [3H]inositol incorporation was rapid (maximal by 10 min); however, with prolonged stimulation large secondary declines in PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 labelling were observed, with depletion of the much larger PtdIns pool only evident in the presence of Li+. Lowering buffer [Ca2+] increased the incorporation of [3H]inositol under basal conditions, but did not attenuate the subsequent agonist-stimulated incorporation effect. The large changes in specific radioactivity of the phosphoinositides, and consequently the [3H]InsP products, after carbachol stimulation resulted in the apparent failure of atropine to reverse the [3H]InsP response completely. Labelling muscle slices with [3H]inositol in the presence of carbachol or labelling for longer periods (greater than 6 h) prevented subsequent carbachol-stimulated effects on incorporation without significantly altering the dose-response relationship for carbachol-stimulated [3H]InsP formation and resulted in steady-state labelling conditions confirmed by the ability of atropine to reverse fully the [3H]InsP response to carbachol. This study demonstrates the profound effects of a number of agonists on [3H]inositol incorporation into the phospho- and polyphosphoinositides in BTSM with important consequent changes in the specific radioactivity of these lipids and the resulting [3H]InsP products. In addition, a selective depletion of PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 over PtdIns has been demonstrated with prolonged muscarinic-receptor stimulation.  相似文献

The role of insulin in modulating phosphoinositide breakdown and accumulation of inositol phosphates was investigated in isolated rat pancreatic islets by using GPAIS (guinea-pig anti-insulin antiserum) that neutralizes effects of insulin in the medium. At either 3.0 mM- or 16.7 mM-glucose or 3.0 mM-glucose plus 10 microM-arecaidine propargyl ester (muscarinic receptor agonist), GPAIS (but not control serum) was able to increase InsP2 and InsP3, but not InsP, in myo-[3H] inositol-prelabelled islets. The effect of GPAIS on 3H incorporation into InsP3 was dose-dependent, with a half-maximal effect at a concentration able to bind 4004 +/- 163 microunits of insulin. A specific mass assay of the biologically relevant isomer Ins (1,4,5)P3 revealed a huge increase (greater than 3-folf). Formation of PtdIns, PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 was not affected by GPAIS. This is indirect evidence for an effect of insulin on inositide metabolism, and therefore endogenously released insulin may have led to an underestimation in earlier studies of effects of insulinotropic substances on inositol phosphate accumulation.  相似文献

Insulin-stimulated phosphoinositide metabolism in isolated fat cells   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Treatment of isolated fat cells with insulin produced increases of up to 4.8-fold in the incorporation of [3H]inositol into phosphatidylinositol. This effect of insulin was both time- and dose-dependent with half-maximal stimulation at 30 microunits/ml of insulin. Insulin increased the labeling of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate but not phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate in cells which had been preincubated with [3H]inositol for 90 min. Incubation of the cells in a Ca2+-free buffer increased the basal level of phosphatidylinositol labeling and enhanced the effect of insulin. Glucagon and isoprenaline, both of which stimulate lipolysis, had no effect on phosphatidylinositol labeling but did potentiate insulin-stimulated incorporation of [3H]inositol into phosphatidylinositol. Phosphoinositide breakdown was measured by the accumulation of inositol phosphates. Insulin did not increase the level of the inositol phosphates at all concentrations of the hormone tested. By comparison, phenylephrine and vasopressin were able to stimulate phosphoinositide breakdown. Pretreatment of the cells with insulin enhanced the effect of phenylephrine on inositol phosphates' accumulation, suggesting that insulin may potentiate phenylephrine-mediated phosphoinositide turnover. From these data we conclude that insulin stimulates the de novo synthesis of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate, but has no effect on phosphoinositide breakdown.  相似文献

The rapid kinetics of [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation and turnover were examined in rat cerebral-cortex slices after muscarinic-receptor stimulation. Markedly increased [3H]inositol polyphosphate concentrations were observed to precede significant stimulated accumulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate. New steady-state accumulations of several 3H-labelled products were achieved after 5-10 min of continued agonist stimulation, but were rapidly and effectively reversed by subsequent receptor blockade. The results show that muscarinic-receptor activation involves phosphoinositidase C-catalysed hydrolysis initially of polyphosphoinositides rather than of phosphatidylinositol. Furthermore, prolonged carbachol stimulation is shown not to cause receptor desensitization, but to allow persistent hydrolysis of [3H]phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate and permit sustained metabolic flux through the inositol tris-/tetrakis-phosphate pathway.  相似文献
