Dissociation of Intracellular Ca Release and Ca Entry Response to 5-Hydroxytryptamine in Cultured Canine Tracheal Smooth Muscle Cells

The relationship between the agonist-sensitive Ca²⁺ pool and those discharged by the Ca²⁺-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (TG) were investigated in canine tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs). In fura-2-loaded TSMCs, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) stimulated a rapid increase in intracellular Ca²⁺ ([Ca²⁺]_i), followed by a sustained plateau phase that was dependent on extracellular Ca²⁺. In such cells, TG produced a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca²⁺]_i, which remained elevated over basal level for several minutes and was substantially attenuated in the absence of extracellular Ca²⁺. Application of 5-HT after TG demonstrated that the TG-sensitive compartment partly overlapped the 5-HT-sensitive stores. Pre-treatment of TSMCs with TG significantly inhibited the increase in [Ca²⁺]_i induced by 5-HT in a time-dependent manner. Similar results were obtained with two other Ca²⁺-ATPase inhibitors, cyclopiazonic acid and 2,5-di-t-butylhydroquinone. Although these inhibitors had no effect on phosphoinositide hydrolysis, Ca²⁺-influx was stimulated by these agents. These results suggest that depletion of the agonist-sensitive Ca²⁺ stores is sufficient for activation of Ca²⁺ influx. Some characteristics of the Ca²⁺-influx activated by depletion of internal Ca²⁺ stores were compared with those of the agonist-activated pathway. 5-HT-stimulated Ca²⁺ influx was inhibited by La³⁺, membrane depolarisation, and the novel Ca²⁺-influx blocker 1-{β-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl) propoxy]-4-methoxyphenethyl}-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (SKF96365). Likewise, activation of Ca²⁺ influx by TG also was blocked by La³⁺, membrane depolarisation, and SKF96365. These results suggest that (1) in the absence of PI hydrolysis, depletion of the agonist-sensitive internal Ca²⁺ stores in TSMCs is sufficient for activation of Ca²⁺ influx, and (2) the agonist-activated Ca²⁺ influx pathway and the influx pathway activated by depletion of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive Ca²⁺ pool are indistinguishable.     

Inhibition of Bradykinin-Induced Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis and Ca Mobilisation by Phorbol Ester in Rat Cultured Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Regulation of the increase in inositol phosphate (IP) production and intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]_i by protein kinase C (PKC) was investigated in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Pretreatment of VSMCs with phorbol 12-myristate 14-acetate (PMA, 1 μM) for 30 min almost abolished the BK-induced IP formation and Ca²⁺ mobilisation. This inhibition was reduced after incubating the cells with PMA for 4 h, and within 24 h the BK-induced responses were greater than those of control cells. The concentrations of PMA giving a half-maximal (pEC₅₀) and maximal inhibition of BK induced an increase in [Ca²⁺]_i, were 7.8 ± 0.3 M and 1 μM, n = 8, respectively. Prior treatment of VSMCs with staurosporine (1 μM), a PKC inhibitor, inhibited the ability of PMA to attenuate BK-induced responses, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of PMA is mediated through the activation of PKC. Paralleling the effect of PMA on the BK-induced IP formation and Ca²⁺ mobilisation, the translocation and downregulation of PKC isozymes were determined by Western blotting with antibodies against different PKC isozymes. The results revealed that treatment of the cells with PMA for various times, translocation of PKC-, βI, βII, δ, ε, and ζ isozymes from the cytosol to the membrane were seen after 5 min, 30 min, 2 h, and 4 h of treatment. However, 24-h treatment caused a partial downregulation of these PKC isozymes in both fractions. Treatment of VSMCs with 1 μM PMA for either 1 or 24 h did not significantly change the K_D and B_max of the BK receptor for binding (control: K_D = 1.7 ± 0.2 nM; B_max = 47.3 ± 4.4 fmol/mg protein), indicating that BK receptors are not a site for the inhibitory effect of PMA on BK-induced responses. In conclusion, these resuts demonstrate that translocation of PKC-, βI, βII, δ, ε, and ζ induced by PMA caused an attenuation of BK-induced IPs accumulation and Ca²⁺ mobilisation in VSMCs.     

Sarafotoxin-Induced Calcium Mobilization in Cultured Dog Tracheal Smooth Muscle Cells

Abstract

Sarafotoxin b (S6b) -induced changes in intracellular Ca[²⁺] concentration ([Ca ²⁺]i) were monitored in cultured canine tracheal smooth muscle cells (TSMCs) by a fluorescent Ca²⁺ indicator fura-2. S6b elicited an initial transient peak followed by a sustained elevation of [Ca²⁺]_i. BQ-123, an endothelin (ET_A) eceptor antagonist, had a high affinity to block the rise [Ca²⁺]_i response to S6b. In the absence of external Ca²⁺, only an initial transient peak of [Ca²⁺]_i was seen, the sustained elevation of [Ca²⁺]_i could then be evoked by addition of 1.8 mM [Ca²⁺] Ca²⁺ influx was required for the changes of [Ca²⁺]_i, since the Ca²⁺-channel blockers, diltiazem, verapamil, an& Nip+, decreased both the initial and sustained elevation of [Ca2+Ii in response to S6b. TSMCs pretreated with phorbol 12-myristate 13- acetate (PMA, 1 (M) for 30 min attenuated Ca²⁺ mobilization induced by S6b, w ich was reversed by stauros orine, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. The change of [Ca2P] + induced by S6b was attenuated by cholera toxin pretreatmenk, but not by pertussis toxin. These data demonstrate that the initial detectable increase in [Ca2+Ii stimulated by S6b is due to the activation of ETA receptors and subsequent release of Ca²⁺ internal stores, whereas the contribution of external Ca²⁺ follows and partially involves a diltiazem- and verapamil-sensitive process. The inhibition of PMA on S6b-induced Ca²⁺ mobilization was inversely correlated with membraneous PKC activity.     

Stimulation of Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis by Serotonin in C6 Glioma Cells

5-Hydroxytryptamine (serotonin or 5-HT) stimulated the incorporation of 32Pi into phosphatidylinositol (PI) but not into polyphosphoinositides in C6 glioma cells with an EC50 of 1.2 X 10(-7) M. The phosphoinositide response was blocked by the 5-HT2 antagonists ketanserin and spiperone but inhibited only partly by methysergide and mianserin. Atropine, prazosin, and yohimbine did not block the response, whereas fluphenazine and haloperidol did so partially but also inhibited basal incorporation by approximately 30%. The 5-HT1A agonist 8-hydroxy-2(di-n-propylamino)tetralin did not cause stimulation. Incubation with 5-HT (1 microM) for 1 h increased the incorporation of [2-3H]myoinositol into all phosphoinositides but not into inositol phosphates (IPs). Li+ alone at 10 mM increased labeling in inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and trisphosphate (IP3), whereas labeling in IP and phosphoinositides remained unaltered. Addition of 5-HT had no effect on this increase. Mn2+ at 1 mM enhanced labeling in PI, PI-4-phosphate, lyso-PI, glycerophosphoinositol, and IP, but the presence of 5-HT again did not cause further stimulation. 5-HT also stimulated the release of IPs in cells prelabeled with [2-3H]myo-inositol, incubated with LiCl (10 mM) and inositol (10 mM), and then exposed to 5-HT (1 microM). Radioactivity in IP2 and IP3 was very low, was stimulated approximately 50% as early as 30 s, and remained elevated for at least 20 min. Radioactivity in IP was at least 10 times as high as in IP3 but was increased only from 3 min on with a peak at 20 min, when the elevation was approximately 40 times that in IP3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Uptake of Adenosine by Cultured Cerebral Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Abstract: Adenosine uptake by cerebral smooth muscle cells is a carrier-mediated process. The K_m value for adenosine uptake is 10.0 μ M and the V _max is 0.95 nmol/ min-mg cell protein. This uptake system is inhibited by the adenosine analog 2-chloroadenosine at low adenosine concentrations. These results prove the existence of a nucleoside transport system associated with cerebral smooth muscle.     

M1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor in Cultured Rat Neostriatum Regulates Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis

Abstract: : Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor expression and function in cultured rat neostriatal neurons were examined. All experiments were performed on intact neurons grown in vitro for 12-14 days. The muscarinic antagonist N-[³H]methylscopolamine ([³H]NMS) binds to a single site in cultures with a K_D of 89 pM and a B_max of 187 fmol/mg of protein, or 32,000 sites/neuron. Competition studies using [³H]NMS were performed to determine what receptor sur > types were present. Nonlinear analysis of competition curves was best described with a single binding site for atropine, pirenzepine, and AF-DX 116 {11-[[2-[(diethylamino)-methyl]-1-piperidinyl]acetyl]-5,11-dihydro-6H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]benzodiazepine-6-one}, with K_i values of 0.6, 62, and 758 nM, respectively. These results indicate that the muscarinic receptors present in neostriatal cultures are of the M₁subtype, having high affinity for pirenzepine and low affinity for AF-DX 116. In contrast with antagonists, carbachol displaced [³H]NMS from two sites with K_i values of 6.5 and 147 μM, with the higher-affinity form predominant (83% of sites). The M₁ receptor subtype was linked to phosphoinositide turnover. Carbachol stimulated the formation of phosphoinositides with an EC₅₀ of 37 μM and was antagonized by atropine. At equimolar doses, pirenzepine was more potent than AF-DX 116 at antagonizing the response.

Muscarinic and Quisqualate Receptor-Induced Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis in Primary Cultures of Striatal and Hippocampal Neurons. Evidence for Differential Mechanisms of Activation

Several neurotransmitters activate polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis in CNS neurons as the first step of a transmembrane signalling cascade that may lead to neuronal ircuit modulation. Muscarinic and quisqualate rejceptor-riggered PPI hydrolysis was investigated in neuronal primary cultures. A clear increase in inositol phosphates (Ins-Ps) was detected as early as 15 s after the agonist addition;! at this time, the increases of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (measured by HPLC) were relatively larger with respect to the other Ins-Ps. Ins-P accumulation was maintained in part in a. Ca²⁺-free medium, excluding that Ca²⁺ entry is the fundamental step of the receptor-induced PPI hydrolysis. Acute dell pre-treatment with phorbol dibutyrate, an activator of protein kinase C, was able to inhibit 50% of the response to carbachol, and almost completely the quisqualate effect, suggesting a negative feedback modulation by the enzyme. Finaljly, per tussis toxin failed to inhibit muscarinic responses, whereas it blocked ±70% of the quisqualate stimulation. The two receptors therefore appear coupled to phosphodiesterase by two different G proteins. The comparison of the results obtained by stimulating the two receptor systems suggests that the generation of the same intracellular signal at two distinct receptor types may occur by different coupling mechanisms, and be differently regulated even in the same neuronal preparations.     

PDGF-BB下调血管平滑肌标志物SM22α表达的机制

血管平滑肌细胞（vascular smooth muscle cell,VSMC）表型转化是血管重塑性疾病的细胞病理学基础,血小板源性生长因子（platelet-derived growth factor,PDGF）-BB抑制平滑肌分化标志基因表达、加速其降解,是VSMC表型转化的关键。该研究用PDGF-BB刺激VSMC诱导细胞发生表型转化,利用Western blot和免疫共沉淀等技术,检测PDGF-BB对早期分化相关基因平滑肌22 alpha（smooth muscle 22 alpha,SM22α）磷酸化与泛素化的影响。实验结果显示,PDGF-BB促进VSMC增殖;上调增殖相关蛋白PCNA的表达,下调分化相关蛋白SM22α与SMα-actin的表达;诱导SM22α发生磷酸化和泛素化,而且,该过程与SM22α水平下调具有时相相关性;抑制剂阻断分析证实,ERK和PKC参与介导了PDGF-BB诱导的SM22α磷酸化。以上结果提示,在VSMCs表型转化中,PDGF-BB可能是通过激活ERK-PKC信号通路,促进SM22α的磷酸化和泛素依赖的蛋白质降解。

Endothelin-1 Receptor Binding and Cellular Signal Transduction in Cultured Human Brain Endothelial Cells

Abstract: The kinetic properties of endothelin-1 (ET-1) binding sites and the production of inositol phosphates (IPs; IP₁, IP₂, IP₃), cyclic AMP, thromboxane B₂, and prostaglandin F_2α induced by various endothelins (ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, and sarafotoxin S6b) were examined in endothelial cells derived from human brain microvessels (HBECs). The presence of both high- and low-affinity binding sites for ET-1 with K_D1 = 122 pM and K_D2 = 31 nM, and B_max1 = 124 fmol/mg of protein and B_max2 = 909 fmol/mg of protein, respectively, was demonstrated on intact HBECs. ET-1 dose-dependently stimulated IP accumulation with EC₅₀ (IP₃) = 0.79 nM, whereas ET-3 was ineffective. The order of potency for displacing ET-1 from high-affinity binding sites (ET-1 > ET-2 > sarafotoxin S6b > ET-3) correlated exponentially with the ability of respective ligands to induce IP₃ formation. ET-1-induced IP₃ formation by HBEC was inhibited by the ET_A receptor antagonist, BQ123. The protein kinase C activator phorbol myristate ester dose-dependently inhibited the ET-1-stimulated production of IPs, whereas pertussis toxin was ineffective. Cyclic AMP production by HBECs was enhanced by both phorbol myristate ester and ET-1, and potentiated by combined treatment with ET-1 and phorbol myristate ester. Data indicate that protein kinase C plays a role in regulating the ET-1-induced activation of phospholipase C, whereas interaction of different messenger systems may regulate ET-1-induced accumulation of cyclic AMP. ET-1 also stimulated endothelial prostaglandin F_2α production, suggesting that activation of phospholipase A₂ is most likely secondary to IP₃-mediated intracellular calcium mobilization because both ET-1-induced IP₃ and prostaglandin F_2α were inhibited by BQ123. These findings are the first demonstration of ET-1 (ET_A-type) receptors linked to phospholipase C and phospholipase A₂ activation in HBECs.

Characterization of Receptor-Coupled Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis in the Rat Hippocampus After Intradentate Colchicine

Lesions produced by intradentate hippocampal administration of colchicine have been reported to produce several time-dependent behavioral and neurochemical changes, including a possible change in the signal transduction process for the cholinergic muscarinic receptor. To characterize further the effects of colchicine on receptor-coupled hydrolysis of phosphoinositides, colchicine was injected stereotaxically into the dentate gyrus of rats at a dose of 2.5 micrograms/site. The animals were killed 1, 3, or 12 weeks after injection and the hippocampi removed and sliced. [3H]Inositol was incorporated into slices, and various receptor agonists known to stimulate inositol phosphate (IP) metabolism were studied. Colchicine administration altered agonist-stimulated turnover in the hippocampus in a time-dependent manner. This hyperstimulation was receptor-mediated, because it was blocked by pirenzepine. The hyperstimulation of turnover was observed also with norepinephrine and serotonin. Colchicine had no effect on IP turnover in vitro. The effect of the colchicine lesion was observed only in the hippocampus, because no change in cholinergic muscarinic receptor-stimulated phosphatidylinositol turnover was observed in the cortex. These studies indicate that intradentate administration of colchicine produces a compensatory change in the signal transduction process in the hippocampus detectable 12 weeks after the lesion.     

A Simple Procedure for in Situ Immunolabeling, Embedding and Sectioning of Layers of Cultured Endothelial and Smooth Muscle Cells for both Light and Electron Microscopy

We present a simple procedure for in situ immunolabeling, embedding and sectioning of layers of cultured endothelial and smooth muscle cells for both light and electron microscopy. Endothelial and smooth muscle cells were seeded in tissue culture chambers /slides precoated with 30% (w/v) gelatin drops fixed with 0.5% glutaraldehyde. Live endothelial cell layers were labeled with an antibody against the surface membrane protein, anti-CD 13. After labeling, the cell layers were fixed and separated from the chambers/slides by lifting all of the samples with a spatula. Sections (1-2 mm) were cut, embedded and processed further for light or electron microscopy. Because of the delicate cell layers and the importance of preserving maximum integrity, labeling was performed under standard culture conditions and treated in situ during the entire procedure. Moreover, the small chamber size of the tissue culture dishes generated the additional advantages of requiring only a limited number of cells, small volumes of media, and little antibody.

Mathematical Modelling of Ca2+ Oscillations in Airway Smooth Muscle Cells

The action of different agonists such as acetylcholine on the membrane of airway smooth muscle cells may induce cytosolic Ca²⁺ oscillations which can be a part of the Ca²⁺ signalling pathway, eventually leading to cell contraction. The aim of the present study is to present a mathematical model of the possible effect of the initial Ca²⁺ distribution within the cell on the form and frequency of induced Ca²⁺ oscillations. It takes into account intracellular Ca²⁺ stores such as sarcoplasmic reticulum and cytosolic proteins as well as Ca²⁺ exchange across the plasma membrane. We are able to demonstrate a closer agreement of model predictions with observed Ca²⁺ traces for a significantly wider range of parameter values, as was previously reported. We show also that the total cellular Ca²⁺ content is an important system parameter especially because of the content in sarcoplasmic reticulum. At a total Ca²⁺ increase of about 20%, the oscillation frequency increases by 25%; also, damped oscillations become sustained. Cases are indicated in which such a situation could occur.
