Adenylate cyclase activity in zona-free mouse oocytes   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Zona-free mouse oocytes, prepared by either chemical or enzymatic treatment, possess adenylate cyclase activity, since forskolin elevated cAMP to similar levels in either these oocytes or in oocytes with intact zonae. In addition, it was shown that oocyte isolation conditions can affect 'basal' cAMP levels.  相似文献

Previous studies have described a decrease in the activity of adenylate cyclase in the parotid gland of isoproterenol-treated rats. In the present studies, a similar decrease was observed in mice treated with isoproterenol. Studies on the subcellular distribution of adenylate cyclase after isoproterenol stimulation of the parotid gland showed that enzyme activity was increased in the lysosomal fraction and decreased in the cellular membrane fractions. Cytochemical studies on the localization of adenylate cyclase in stimulated gland showed an increase in vesicles which contained enzyme activity and a decrease in activity at the luminal and plasma membranes. It is suggested, based on the present findings and results reported by other investigators, that after isoproterenol stimulation of the parotid gland, adenylate cyclase (along with excess membrane) is degraded by lysosomes. If this suggestion is true, then the observed decrease in adenylate cyclase would have a molecular explanation.  相似文献

Involvement of the adenylyl cyclase signaling system in the mechanism of action of the mammalian insulin and epidermal growth factor as well as of insulin-like peptide isolated from the bivalve mollusk Anodonta cygnea has been studied. It was shown for the first time that insulin and insulin-like peptide exert in vitro the GTP-dependent stimulating action on the adenylyl cyclase activity. Epidermal growth factor has an analogous effect. Effectiveness of the peptides decreased in the order insulin-like peptide > epidermal growth factor > insulin in the foot smooth muscles of A. cygnea and insulin > epidermal growth factor > insulin-like peptide in the skeletal muscles of rat.  相似文献

Nonsuppressible insulin-like protein (NSILP), 100 ng/ml, inhibited cyclic AMP accumulation in rat liver, as stimulated by glucagon, 10?7M, from 493 ± 12 to 183 ± 7 pmoles/gm tissue (p<0.001), but did not alter basal levels of cyclic AMP, 143 ± 2 pmoles/gm tissue. NSILP, 100 ng/ml, also inhibited cyclic AMP accumulation, stimulated by epinephrine, 5 × 10?4M, from 387 ± 12 to 233 ± 9 pmoles/gm tissue. With 1 μM as substrate, NSILP, 100 ng/ml, increased cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase activity in liver slices from 19.08 ± 0.18 to 24.94 ± 0.38 pmoles cAMP hydrolyzed/mg protein/min (p<0.001), but did not alter this enzyme activity in broken cell preparations of rat liver. Cyclic GMP levels in liver slices, 22.5 ± 0.3 pmoles/gm tissue, were increased by NSILP to 36.3 ± 0.5 pmoles/gm tissue (p<0.01). NSILP had no effect on adenylate cyclase activity. These changes, caused by NSILP in cyclic nucleotide metabolism in liver, resemble those described for insulin, and suggest that alterations in cyclic nucleotide levels in liver may be relevant to other hepatic effects of NSILP.  相似文献

1. The inhibitory effect of adenosine on the glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity of liver plasma membranes, prepared from PVG/c rats, was potentiated by insulin. In the presence of EGTA, such potentiating effect of insulin was lost. 2. Calcium (10 microM) potentiated the inhibitory effects of both adenosine and insulin on the glucagon-stimulated cyclase activity. The synergestic effect of calcium + insulin required the presence of adenosine as judged from the use of adenosine deaminase. 3. Insulin had no significant inhibitory effect on the glucagon-stimulated cyclase activity of liver plasma membranes, prepared from young Wistar rats, unless both adenosine (50 microM) and calcium (10 microM) were added externally. 4. Results demonstrate an interaction of calcium and insulin at membrane level that, in the presence of adenosine, results in the inhibition of the glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity.  相似文献

IGF-I and insulin receptors possess tyrosine-kinase enzymatic activity considered to be essential for signal transduction and thereby mediating the putative effects of these hormones on fetal growth and development. We investigated the ontogeny of IGF-I and insulin receptor tyrosine-kinase activity in at least 3 separate membrane preparations from liver of rats at 21 day of embryonic life (21ED), 1 and 5 day of postnatal life (1PD and 5PD respectively) and adult. Receptors purified by wheat germ agglutinin chromatography (WGA) were exposed to graded concentrations of IGF-I or insulin, and tyrosine-kinase activity was measured by quantifying incorporation of 32P into the exogenous substrate poly[Glu,Tyr; 4:1]. IGF-I stimulated tyrosine-kinase solely at 1 PD as documented by a maximal increase of 346 +/- 167% over basal kinase activity with 6.6 nmol/L IGF-I. While the lack of response in adult animals could be explained by a striking decrease in receptors at that age, 125I-IGF-I binding and affinity labelling of the WGA preparations indicated substantial IGF-I receptors were present in the liver at each of the perinatal ages. Furthermore, this dissociation between IGF-I binding and the tyrosine-kinase activity of these IGF-I receptors could not be attributed to the presence/absence of IGF-I binding proteins as judged by affinity labelling. In contrast, insulin-stimulated tyrosine-kinase activity was observed at all ages tested although it appeared greatest at 1PD. We conclude that (i) expression of IGF-I tyrosine-kinase activity is linked to developmental events and differs from that found for the insulin receptor tyrosine-kinase activity, (ii) during the perinatal period there is an apparent dissociation between ligand binding by the IGF-I receptor and receptor tyrosine-kinase activity. These observations suggest modulation of IGF-I receptor tyrosine-kinase activity may be an important regulator of IGF-I action during the perinatal period.  相似文献

A potential regulatory role for the cyclic nucleotides during liver morphogenesis will be better understood as the development of various components of the cyclic nucleotide system are characterized. Accordingly, adenylate cyclase response to glucagon and 5′-guanylimidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) and the specific activities, cellular distributions, and kinetic constants (V and Km) of the cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterases were determined at variuos stages of rat liver development. These results show (1) a period of increasing sensitivity of rat liver adenylate cyclase to glucagon at a time when sensitivity to NaF and Gpp(NH)p remains unchanged, and (2) increased responsiveness to glucagon plus Gpp(NH)p which is dependent upon the degree of glucagon sensitivity. It is concluded that the guanul nucleotide regulatory site is a functional part of adenylate cyclase very early in liver development and that the development of glucagon sensitivity is more probably limited by the developmet of glucagon receptors. Two forms of each phosphodiesterase (high and low Km) were found throughout, except that low Km cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase could not be demonstrated in the embryo. No significant change with age was found for the Km or V of any of the enzyme forms. The ratio of soluble: particulate cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase decreased with age, whereas no change in the ration for cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was observed. Specific activities of each enzyme from were highest in the perinatal period and decreased with age. The changes in phosphodiesterase specific activities paralled changes in guanylate and adenylate cyclase activities, which argues against a selective regulatory role for phosphodiesterase in modulating cyclic nucleotide influences during liver morphogenesis.  相似文献

Abundant adenylate cyclase activity was found in the phase I cultures not only of Bordetella pertussis but also fo B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica. The enzyme activity in the culture fluid increased rapidly and reached a peak during the logarithmic growth phase. B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica especially produced a high activity of the enzyme in the culture fluid during the logarithmic phase, but little or no activity was detected in the cells throughout the growth period. In the culture of B. pertussis, the intracellular activity was higher than that in the culture fluid. Phase III cultures of these species lacked both the extracellular and intracellular enzyme activities throughout their growth. In the culture of B. parapertussis, accumulation of cyclic AMP was parallel to that of adenylate cyclase activity through the growth periods, but in B. pertussis there was no parallelism from the stationary through the declining phases. The difference in production patterns of the enzyme activity among the species is discussed.  相似文献

Isolated rat renal glomeruli contain an adenylate cyclase system and guanylate cyclase system. Adenylate cyclase was strikingly activated by purified parathyroid hormone, epinephrine, prostaglandin I2 and histamine. The demonstration of PTH activated adenylate cyclase in glomeruli raises the possibility of a role of this hormone in regulation of glomerular filtration rate. Guanylate cyclase was strikingly activated by CA2+, nitrate derivatives such as sodium nitroprusside. Its role remained still unknown.  相似文献

Adenylate cyclase activity was estimated inhomogenates of rat islets of Langerhans. by measurement of the conversion of [α-32P]ATP to adenosine cyclic 3′,5′-[32P]monophosphate. Islet cell adenyulate cyclase activity was stimulated by the addition to the homogenates of glucagon, fluoride, prostaglandins E1 or E2 GTP or CTP although not by UTP, TTP, GDP, or GMP. Adrenaline, noradrenaline and isoproterenol were each found to inhibit the activity, the order of potency at a concentration of 10?4 M being adrenaline > noradrenaline > isoproterenol. The effects of these agents were not altered by β-blackade with propanolol but could be preventived by α-blockade with phenoxybenzamine. The following agents, present at concentrations previously shown to increase rates of insulin secretion from rat islets of Langerhans, were ineffective in altering adenylate cyclase activity when tested in the presence or absence of 0.1 mM GTP: glucose, glibenclamide, xylitol leucine, arginine, or potassium. These results suggest that the activity of adenylate cyclase in the B cells of rat islets of Langerhans may play an important role in mediating the direct effects of hormones and adrenergic agents on insulin release, although the short term effects of substrates such as glucose or amino acids on the release process do not appear to be mediated through alterations in the activity of this enzyme.  相似文献

Tissue, homogenates, and purified cell fractions prepared from hypocotyls of a dicot, soybean (Glycine max), and meristematic tissue of a monocot, onion (Allium cepa), were examined critically for evidence of adenylate cyclase activity. Three assay methods were used: chemical analysis, isotope dilution analysis, and enzyme cytochemistry. In both crude extracts or whole tissue, as well as purified membranes, with or without auxin, no adenylate cyclase was detected by any of the three methods.  相似文献
