C-type natriuretic peptide and guanylyl cyclase B receptor 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Schulz S 《Peptides》2005,26(6):1024-1034
Guanylyl cyclases (GC) are widely distributed enzymes that signal via the production of the second messenger cGMP. The particulate guanylyl cyclases share a similar topology: an extracellular ligand binding domain and intracellular regulatory kinase-homology and cyclase catalytic domains. The natriuretic peptide receptors GC-A and -B mediate the effects of a family of peptides, atrial, B- and C-type natriuretic peptide (ANP, BNP and CNP, respectively), with natriuretic, diuretic and vasorelaxant properties. ANP and BNP, through the activation of GC-A, act as endocrine hormones to regulate blood pressure and volume, and inhibit cardiac hypertrophy. CNP, on the other hand, acts in an autocrine/paracrine fashion to induce vasorelaxation and vascular remodeling, and to regulate bone growth through its cognate receptor GC-B. GC-B, like GC-A, is phosphorylated in the basal state, and undergoes both homologous and heterologous desensitization, reflected by dephosphorylation of specific sites in the kinase-homology domain. This review will examine the structure and function of GC-B, and summarize the physiological processes in which this receptor is thought to participate. 相似文献

One of the principal loci involved in the regulatory action of atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) is guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (GC-A/NPRA), whose ligand-binding efficiency and GC catalytic activity vary remarkably in different target cells and tissues. In its mature form, NPRA resides in the plasma membrane and contains an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a single transmembrane region, and the intracellular protein kinase-like homology domain (KHD) and guanylyl cyclase (GC) catalytic domain. NPRA is a dynamic cellular macromolecule that traverses through different compartments of the cell through its lifetime. Binding of ligand to NPRA triggers a complex array of signal transduction events and accelerates the endocytosis. The endocytic transport is important in regulating signal transduction, formation of specialized signaling complexes, and modulation of specific components of internalization events. The present review describes the experiments which reveal the internalization of ligand-receptor complexes of NPRA, receptor trafficking and recycling, and delivery of both ligand-receptor molecules into subcellular compartments. The ligand-receptor complexes of NPRA are finally degraded within the lysosomes. The experimental evidence provides a consensus forum, which establishes the endocytosis, cellular trafficking, sequestration, and metabolic processing of ANP/NPRA complexes in the intact cells. The discussion is afforded to address the experimental insights into the mechanisms that cells utilize in modulating the delivery and metabolic processing of ligand-bound NPRA into the cell interior. 相似文献

Chromosomal distribution of three members of the human natriuretic peptide receptor/guanylyl cyclase gene family 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Chromosomal localization of the genes encoding three homologous human proteins, the ANPRA, ANPRB, and ANPRC cell surface receptors, was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of genomic DNA from somatic cell hybrids. The ANPRA gene was assigned to 1q12----qter by intron-specific PCR. The ANPRB gene was assigned to 9p11----p22 using species-specific length variation in PCR fragments. The ANPRC gene was assigned to chromosome 5 using human-specific PCR primers identified by screening a human primer panel on parental DNA samples (shotgun primer screening). Chromosomal assignments based on PCR analysis were confirmed and the genes further sublocalized by in situ hybridization of cloned cDNA probes to human metaphase chromosomes. The ANPRA gene was sublocalized to 1q21----q22, the ANPRB gene to 9p12----p21, and the ANPRC gene to 5p13----p14. 相似文献

Using a bacterial expression system, large amounts of the catalytic core of an atrial natriuretic peptide receptor guanylyl cyclase were produced and purified. After refolding the protein from a buffer containing urea, the enzyme had positively cooperative kinetics with a Hill coefficient, nH = 1.42 +/- 0.08. Size exclusion chromatography and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated that the enzyme is composed of homodimers with interacting catalytic sites. 相似文献

Muscarinic activation of tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) involves a M(3)AChR/heterotrimeric-G protein/NPR-GC coupling mechanism. G protein activators Mastoparan (MAS) and Mastoparan-7 stimulated 4- and 10-fold the NPR-GC respectively, being insensitive to PTX and antibodies against Galpha(i/o) subfamily. Muscarinic and MAS stimulation of NPR-GC was blocked by antibodies against C-terminal of Galpha(q16), whose expression was confirmed by RT-PCR. However, synthetic peptides from C-terminal of Galpha(q15/16) stimulated the NPR-GC. Coupling of alpha(q16) to M(3)AChR is supported by MAS decreased [(3)H]QNB binding, being abolished after M(3)AChR-4-DAMP-alkylation. Anti-i(3)M(3)AChR antibodies blocked the muscarinic activation of NPR-GC, and synthetic peptide from i(3)M(3)AChR (M(3)P) was more potent than MAS increasing GTPgamma [(35)S] and decreasing the [(3)H]QNB activities. Coupling between NPR-GC and Galpha(q16) was evaluated by using trypsin-solubilized-fraction from TSM membranes, which displayed a MAS-sensitive-NPR-GC activity, being immunoprecipitated with anti-Galpha(q16), also showing an immunoreactive heterotrimeric-G-beta-subunit. These data support the existence of a novel transducing cascade, involving Galpha(q16)beta gamma coupling M(3)AChR to NPR-GC. 相似文献

The guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA), also referred to as GC-A, is a single polypeptide molecule. In its mature form, NPRA resides in the plasma membrane and consists of an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a single transmembrane-spanning region, and intracellular cytoplasmic domain that contains a protein kinase-like homology domain (KHD) and a guanylyl cyclase (GC) catalytic active site. The binding of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) to NPRA occurs at the plasma membrane; the receptor is synthesized on the polyribosomes of the endoplasmic reticulum, and is presumably degraded within the lysosomes. It is apparent that NPRA is a dynamic cellular macromolecule that traverses through different compartments of the cell through its lifetime. This review describes the experiments addressing the interaction of ANP with the NPRA, the receptor-mediated internalization and stoichiometric distribution of ANP-NPRA complexes from cell surface to cell interior, and its release into culture media. It is hypothesized that after internalization, the ligand-receptor complexes dissociate inside the cell and a population of NPRA recycles back to plasma membrane. Subsequently, some of the dissociated ligand molecules escape the lysosomal degradative pathway and are released intact into culture media, which reenter the cell by retroendocytotic mechanisms. By utilizing the pharmacologic and physiologic perturbants, the emphasis has been placed on the cellular regulation and processing of ligand-receptor complexes in intact cells. I conclude the discussion by examining the data available on the utilization of deletion mutations of NPRA cDNA, which has afforded experimental insights into the mechanisms the cell utilizes in modulating the expression and functioning of NPRA. 相似文献

The cardiac hormones atrial natriuretic peptide and B-type natriuretic peptide (brain natriuretic peptide) activate guanylyl cyclase (GC)-A/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA) and produce the second messenger cGMP. GC-A/NPRA is a member of the growing family of GC receptors. The recent biochemical, molecular and genomic studies on GC-A/NPRA have provided important insights into the regulation and functional activity of this receptor protein, with a particular emphasis on cardiac and renal protective roles in hypertension and cardiovascular disease states. The progress in this field of research has significantly strengthened and advanced our knowledge about the critical roles of Npr1 (coding for GC-A/NPRA) in the control of fluid volume, blood pressure, cardiac remodeling, and other physiological functions and pathological states. Overall, this review attempts to provide insights and to delineate the current concepts in the field of functional genomics and signaling of GC-A/NPRA in hypertension and cardiovascular disease states at the molecular level. 相似文献

Guanylyl cyclases (GC) exist as soluble and particulate, membrane-associated enzymes which catalyse the conversion of GTP to cGMP, an intracellular signalling molecule. Several membrane forms of the enzyme have been identified up to now. Some of them serve as receptors for the natriuretic peptides, a family of peptides which includes atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), three peptides known to play important roles in renal and cardiovascular physiology. These are transmembrane proteins composed of a single transmembrane domain, a variable extracellular natriuretic peptide-binding domain, and a more conserved intracellular kinase homology domain (KHD) and catalytic domain. GC-A, the receptor for ANP and BNP, also named natriuretic peptide receptor-A or -1 (NPR-A or NPR-1), has been studied widely. Its mode of activation by peptide ligands and mechanisms of regulation serve as prototypes for understanding the function of other particulate GC. Activation of this enzyme by its ligand is a complex process requiring oligomerization, ligand binding, KHD phosphorylation and ATP binding. Gene knockout and genetic segregation studies have provided strong evidence for the importance of GC-A in the regulation of blood pressure and heart and renal functions. GC-B is the main receptor for CNP, the latter having a more paracrine role at the vascular and venous levels. The structure and regulation of GC-B is similar to that of GC-A. This chapter reviews the structure and roles of GC-A and GC-B in blood pressure regulation and cardiac and renal pathophysiology. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) activates guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (GC-A/NPRA), which lowers blood pressure and blood volume. The objective of the present study was to visualize internalization and trafficking of enhanced GFP (eGFP)-tagged NPRA (eGFP–NPRA) in human embryonic kidney-293 (HEK-293) cells, using immunofluorescence (IF) and co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) of eGFP–NPRA. Treatment of cells with ANP initiated rapid internalization and co-localization of the receptor with early endosome antigen-1 (EEA-1), which was highest at 5 min and gradually decreased within 30 min. Similarly, co-localization of the receptor was observed with lysosome-associated membrane protein-1 (LAMP-1); however, after treatment with lysosomotropic agents, intracellular accumulation of the receptor gradually increased within 30 min. Co-IP assays confirmed that the localization of internalized receptors occurred with subcellular organelles during the endocytosis of NPRA. Rab 11, which was used as a recycling endosome (Re) marker, indicated that ∼20% of receptors recycled back to the plasma membrane. ANP-treated cells showed a marked increase in the IF of cGMP, whereas receptor was still trafficking into the intracellular compartments. Thus, after ligand binding, NPRA is rapidly internalized and trafficked from the cell surface into endosomes, Res and lysosomes, with concurrent generation of intracellular cGMP. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) binds to a transmembrane receptor having intrinsic guanylyl cyclase activity; this receptor has been designated GC-A. Binding of ANP to GC-A stimulates its catalytic activity, resulting in increased production of the second messenger, cyclic GMP. Here we show that GC-A can be expressed in insect cells using a recombinant baculovirus and that the expressed protein retained its abilities to bind ANP and to function as an ANP-activated guanylyl cyclase. In addition, GC-A produced in insect cells was absolutely dependent on the presence of adenine nucleotides for activation by ANP. Millimolar concentrations of ATP were required for optimal activation. The relative potencies of various nucleotides for activation was adenosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) greater than ATP greater than ADP, adenosine 5'-(beta, gamma-imino)triphosphate greater than ADP beta S. AMP had no effect. These studies suggest that binding of an adenine nucleotide, most likely to the protein kinase-like domain of GC-A, is absolutely required for ANP activation. Regulation of guanylyl cyclase activation by adenine nucleotides represents a novel mechanism for the modulation of signal transduction, possibly analogous in some respects to the role of guanine nucleotides and G proteins in the regulation of adenylyl cyclase activity. 相似文献

Studied for nearly 30 years for its ability to control many parameters, such as vascular smooth muscle cell relaxation, heart fibrosis, and kidney function, the natriuretic peptide (NP) system is now considered to be a key element in several other major metabolic pathways. After stimulation by NPs, natriuretic peptide receptors (NPR) convert GTP to the second messenger cGMP. In addition to its vasodilatory effects and natriuretic and diuretic functions, cGMP has been positively associated with fat cell function, apoptosis, and NPR expression/activity modulation. The NP system is also closely linked to metabolic syndrome (MetS) progression and obesity control. A new era is now on its way targeting the NP system to not only treat high blood pressure, but to also assist in the fight against the obesity pandemic. Here, we summarize recent data on the role of NPs in hypertension and MetS. 相似文献

Endocytosis is a prominent clathrin-mediated mechanism for concentrated uptake and internalization of ligand-receptor complexes, also known as cargo. Internalization of cargo is the fundamental mechanism for receptor-dependent regulation of cell membrane function, intracellular signal transduction, and neurotransmission, as well as other biological and physiological activities. However, the intrinsic mechanisms of receptor endocytosis and contemporaneous intracellular signaling are not well understood. We review emerging concepts of receptor endocytosis with concurrent intracellular signaling, using a typical example of guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA) internalization, subcellular trafficking, and simultaneous generation of second-messenger cGMP and signaling in intact cells. We highlight the role of short-signal motifs located in the carboxyl-terminal regions of membrane receptors during their internalization and subsequent receptor trafficking in organelles that are not traditionally studied in this context, including nuclei and mitochondria. This review sheds light on the importance of future investigations of receptor endocytosis and trafficking in live cells and intact animals in vivo in physiological context. 相似文献

The guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (GC-A/NPRA), also referred to as GC-A, is a single polypeptide molecule having a critical function in blood pressure regulation and cardiovascular homeostasis. GC-A/NPRA, which resides in the plasma membrane, consists of an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a single transmembrane domain, and an intracellular cytoplasmic region containing a protein kinase-like homology domain (KHD) and a guanylyl cyclase (GC) catalytic domain. After binding with atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP), GC-A/NPRA is internalized and sequestered into intracellular compartments. Therefore, GC-A/NPRA is a dynamic cellular macromolecule that traverses different subcellular compartments through its lifetime. This review describes the roles of short-signal sequences in the internalization, trafficking, and intracellular redistribution of GC-A/NPRA from cell surface to cell interior. Evidence indicates that, after internalization, the ligand–receptor complexes dissociate inside the cell and a population of GC-A/NPRA recycles back to the plasma membrane. Subsequently, the disassociated ligands are degraded in the lysosomes. However, a small percentage of the ligand escapes the lysosomal degradative pathway, and is released intact into culture medium. Using pharmacologic and molecular perturbants, emphasis has been placed on the cellular regulation and processing of ligand-bound GC-A/NPRA in terms of receptor trafficking and down-regulation in intact cells. The discussion is concluded by examining the functions of short-signal sequence motifs in the cellular life-cycle of GC-A/NPRA, including endocytosis, trafficking, metabolic processing, inactivation, and/or down-regulation in model cell systems. 相似文献

Molecular and cellular physiology of the dissociation of atrial natriuretic peptide from guanylyl cyclase a receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Guanylyl cyclase subtype A (GCA) is the main receptor that mediates the effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in the regulation of plasma volume and blood pressure. The dynamics of the dissociation of ANP from GCA were investigated in cultured Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably transfected with wild-type (WT) or mutant GCA receptors. The rate of dissociation of specifically bound (125)I-ANP-(1-28) from intact CHOGCAWT cells at 37 degrees C was extremely rapid (K(off) = 0.49 +/- 0.02 min(-1)), whereas in isolated membranes prepared from these cells, the dissociation at 37 degrees C was >10-fold slower (K(off) = 0.035 +/- 0.006 min(-1)). The dissociation of ANP from CHOGCAWT cells showed remarkable temperature dependence. Between 22 and 37 degrees C, K(off) increased approximately 8 times, whereas between 4 and 22 degrees C, it increased only 1.5 times. Total deletion of the cytoplasmic domain or of the catalytic guanylyl cyclase sequence within this domain abolished ANP-induced increases in cGMP, dramatically slowed receptor-ligand dissociation by at least 10-fold, and abolished the temperature dependence of the dissociation of ANP. Deletion of the kinase-like domain led to maximal constitutive activation of guanylyl cyclase, markedly decreased K(off) to 0.064 +/- 0.006 min(-1), and also abolished the temperature dependence of dissociation. Substitution of Ser(506) by Ala and particularly the double substitution of Gly(505) and Ser(506) by Ala within the kinase-like domain markedly reduced ANP-induced increases in cGMP, whereas K(off) decreased modestly (albeit significantly) to 0.36 +/- 0.03 and 0.24 +/- 0.02 min(-1), respectively. As a whole, the results demonstrate for the first time that temperature per se or ATP alone cannot account for rapid GCA receptor-ligand dissociation under physiological conditions and suggest that ligand dissociation is modulated in part by the interaction of still unidentified cytosolic factors with the cytoplasmic domain of GCA. 相似文献

Natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA) is the principal receptor for the cardiac hormones ANP and BNP. Mice lacking NPRA develop progressive cardiac hypertrophy and congestive heart failure. However, the mechanisms responsible for hypertrophic growth in the absence of NPRA signaling are not yet known. In the present study, we determined whether deficiency of NPRA/cGMP signaling alters the cardiac pro-inflammatory cytokines gene expression in Npr1 (coding for NPRA) gene-knockout (Npr1(-/-)) mice exhibiting cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis as compared with control wild-type (Npr1(+/+)) mice. A significant up-regulation of cytokine genes such as TNF-alpha (five-fold), IL-6 (three-fold) and TGF-beta1 (four-fold) were observed in mutant mice hearts lacking NPRA as compared with the age-matched wild-type mice. In parallel, NF-kappaB binding activity was almost five-fold greater in the nuclear extract of Npr1(-/-) mutant mice hearts as compared with wild-type Npr1(+/+) mice hearts. Guanylyl cyclase (GC) activity and cGMP levels were drastically reduced by 10- and 5-fold, respectively, in ventricular tissues of mutant mice hearts relative to wild-type controls. The present findings provide direct evidence that ablation of NPRA/cGMP signaling activates inflammatory cytokines, probably via NF-kappaB mediated signaling pathway, and is associated with hypertrophic growth of null mutant mice hearts. 相似文献
