Glycine Potentiates the Stimulation of Inositol Phospholipid Hydrolysis by Excitatory Amino Acids in Primary Cultures of Cerebellar Neurons 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
Glycine potentiates stimulation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis by glutamate and N-methyl-D-aspartate, but not by quisqualate or carbamylcholine, in primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells. This potentiation occurs in the absence of extracellular Mg2+, but is more evident when stimulation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis by N-methyl-D-aspartate is measured in the presence of 1 mM Mg2+. The action of glycine is not antagonized by strychnine. These results suggest that glycine acts as a positive modulator of signal transduction at a specific class of N-methyl-D-aspartate-sensitive glutamate receptors coupled to inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in cerebellar granule cells. 相似文献

Excitatory Amino Acids Stimulate Inositol Phospholipid Hydrolysis and Reduce Proliferation in Cultured Astrocytes 总被引:6,自引:5,他引:1

Excitatory amino acids stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in primary cultures of astrocytes, as reflected by an increased formation of [3H]inositol monophosphate [( 3H]InsP) in the presence of 10 mM Li+. Quisqualate was the most potent activator of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, followed by glutamate and ibotenate. Kainate exhibited low activity, whereas N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazolepropionate (AMPA) were inactive. The increase in [3H]InsP formation induced by glutamate was potentiated after 12-h exposure to the proliferative agent epidermal growth factor (EGF), suggesting that activation of the mitotic cycle leads to an enhanced coupling of glutamate recognition sites with phospholipase C. To study how glutamate receptors are involved in regulating cell proliferation, we have measured [methyl-3H]thymidine incorporation in cultured astrocytes. Excitatory amino acids reduced thymidine incorporation with a pharmacological profile similar to that observed for the stimulation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis. Quisqualate acted as a potent antiproliferative agent, both under basal conditions and in cells stimulated to proliferate by addition of EGF or phorbol 12-tetradecanoate 13-acetate. Glutamate and ibotenate reduced [methyl-3H]thymidine incorporation at high concentrations, whereas kainate, AMPA, and NMDA were virtually inactive. The action of quisqualate on both inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and thymidine incorporation was attenuated by 2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate, which acted as a weak agonist/competitive antagonist. Other excitatory amino acid receptor antagonists were not effective.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Preexposure of cultured cerebellar neurons to glutamate reduced the stimulation of polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis induced by subsequent addition of glutamate without affecting the response to the muscarinic receptor agonist carbamylcholine. Desensitization of glutamate-stimulated PPI hydrolysis developed rapidly and persisted up to 48 h after removal of glutamate from the incubation medium. Stimulation of PPI hydrolysis by quisqualate was abolished in cultures pretreated with quisqualate or glutamate, but not with N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA). In contrast, pretreatment with NMDA reduced the stimulation of PPI hydrolysis induced by a subsequent addition of NMDA, leaving the action of quisqualate intact. The lack of cross-desensitization between NMDA and quisqualate supports the existence of two distinct subtypes of glutamate receptors coupled to PPI hydrolysis. Desensitization induced by a 30-min (but not by a 6-h) exposure to glutamate was attenuated or prevented by putative protein kinase C inhibitors, including mono- and trisialogangliosides, sphingosine, and polymyxin B, but not by inhibitors of arachidonic acid metabolism, nor by the nonselective calpain inhibitor leupeptin, nor by the lectin concanavalin A. These results suggest that desensitization of metabotropic glutamate receptors involves, at least in its rapid component, activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Glutamate and Quisqualate Regulate Expression of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mRNA in Cultured Cerebellar Granule Cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Abstract: Metabotropic glutamate receptor (type 1; mGluR1 ) is expressed predominantly in the hippocampus and the cerebellum. Using cultured cerebellar granule cells, we investigated the regulation of the mGluR1 mRNA expression. Levels of mGluR1 mRNA were decreased to less than half by high potassium stimulation and by glutamate and quisqualate. Although these glutamate receptor agonists tested are also known to cause neuronal cell death in culture, the effect of cell death cannot explain the observed reduction in mGluR1 mRNA because of the following reasons: (a) antagonists of N -methyl-D-aspartate and non- N -methyl-D-aspartate receptors inhibited cell death, but not the reduction of the level of mGluR1 mRNA; (b) mGluR1 mRNA returned to its initial level 48 h after the agonist application; and (c) the mRNA level of one of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate/kainate receptors (GluR1) was not altered by these conditions. Therefore, we conclude that the glutamate or quisqualate stimulation can specifically inhibit the expression of mGluR1 mRNA. The dose response of quisqualate for the reduction in mGluR1 mRNA is consistent with that for inositol phosphate formation stimulated through the cloned mGluR1 . The mRNA reduction did not require extracellular calcium. Desensitization of mGluR1 with phorbol ester abolished the mRNA reduction. These results suggest that the reduction in mGluR1 mRNA is mediated by the activation of the metabotropic receptor itself. 相似文献

Phorbol ester modulates serotonin-stimulated phosphoinositide breakdown in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Stimulation of cultured rabbit aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) with serotonin (5HT) induced a rapid generation of inositol phosphates from receptor-mediated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids. Pretreatment of these cells with 500ng/ml of pertussis toxin for 24h prior to addition of 5HT reduced 5HT-induced formation of inositol phosphates. Phorbol esters, such as 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), are known to activate protein kinase C (PKC), but their role on cultured VSMC stimulated by 5HT has not been defined. TPA exhibited a rapid inhibition of 5HT-stimulated phosphoinositide breakdown, although 4 alpha-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate (4 alpha PDD), an inactive phorbol ester, did not inhibit it. These data suggest that a guanine nucleotide inhibitory (Gi) protein couples 5HT receptor to phospholipase C and TPA modulates 5HT-stimulated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids in cultured VSMC through activation of PKC. 相似文献

Abstract: Activation of glutamate ionotropic receptors represents the primary event in the neurotoxicity process triggered by excitatory amino acids. We demonstrate here that the concentration-dependent stimulation of metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) by the selective agonist trans-1-aminocyclopentane-1, 3-dicarboxylate or by quisqualate counteracts both glutamate- and kainate-induced neurotoxicity in primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells. The mGluR-evoked responses are potentiated by aniracetam, which per se also elicits neuroprotection. Aniracetam concentration-dependently counteracted glutsmate-, kainate-, or α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid-induced cell death and greatly facilitated neuroprotective response achieved by different concentrations of both quisqualate and trans-1-aminocyclopentane-1, 3-dicarboxylate. In addition, aniracetam potentiated the mGluR-coupled stimulation of phospholipase C, as revealed by the measurement of 3 H-inositol phosphate formation. Thus, mGluRs could be a suitable target for novel pharmacological strategies pointing to the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

Cortical slices from rat brain were used to study carbachol-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis. Omission of calcium during incubation of slices with [3H]inositol increased its incorporation into receptor-coupled phospholipids. Carbachol-stimulated hydrolysis of [3H]inositol phospholipids in slices was dose-dependent, was affected by the concentrations of calcium and lithium present and resulted in the accumulation of mostly [3H]inositol-l-phosphate. Incubation of slices withN-ethylmaleimide or a phorbol ester reduced the response to carbachol. Membranes prepared from cortical slices labeled with [3H]inositol retained the receptor-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis reaction. The basal rate of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis was higher than in slices and addition of carbachol further stimulated the process. Addition of GTP stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, suggesting the presence of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein coupled to phospholipase C. Carbachol and GTP-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in membranes was detectable following a 3 min assay period. In contrast to slices, increased levels of inositol bisphosphate and inositol trisphosphate were detected following incubation of membranes with carbachol. These results demonstrate that agonist-responsive receptors are present in cortical membranes, that the receptors may be coupled to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, rather than phosphatidylinositol, hydrolysis and that a guanine nucleotide-binding protein may mediate the coupling of receptor activation to inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in brain. 相似文献

Inhibition of Excitatory Amino Acid-Stimulated Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis in the Neonatal Rat Hippocampus by 2-Amino-3-Phosphonopropionate 总被引:15,自引:11,他引:4
The effects of excitatory amino acid agonists and alpha-amino-omega-phosphonocarboxylic acid antagonists on phosphoinositide hydrolysis in hippocampal slices of the 7-day neonatal rat were examined. Significant stimulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate formation was observed with ibotenate, quisqualate, L-glutamate, L-aspartate, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid, L-homocysteate, and kainate. N-Methyl-D-aspartate had no effect. Of these agonists, ibotenate and quisqualate were the most potent and efficacious. Stimulations by ibotenate and quisqualate were partially inhibited by L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate (10(-3) M), but this antagonist had no effect on L-glutamate, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid, or kainate. At 10(-3) M, D,L-2-amino-3-phosphonopropionate completely inhibited ibotenate and quisqualate stimulations, partially inhibited L-glutamate stimulation, and had no effect on alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid-, kainate-, or carbachol-induced [3H]inositol monophosphate formation. Concentration-effect experiments showed D,L-2-amino-3-phosphonopropionate to be five times more potent as an antagonist of ibotenate-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis than L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate. Thus in the neonatal rat hippocampus, like in the adult rat brain, D,L-2-amino-3-phosphonopropionate is a selective and relatively potent inhibitor of excitatory amino acid-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Because this glutamate receptor is uniquely sensitive to D,L-2-amino-3-phosphonopropionate, these studies provide further pharmacological evidence for the existence of a novel excitatory amino acid receptor subtype that is coupled to phosphoinositide hydrolysis in brain. 相似文献

Nootropic Drugs Positively Modulate α-Amino-3-Hydroxy-5-Methyl-4-Isoxazolepropionic Acid-Sensitive Glutamate Receptors in Neuronal Cultures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Micromolar concentrations of piracetam, aniracetam, and oxiracetam enhanced alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-stimulated 45Ca2+ influx in primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells. Nootropic drugs increased the efficacy but not the potency of AMPA and their action persisted in the presence of the voltage-sensitive calcium channel blocker nifedipine. Potentiation by oxiracetam was specific for AMPA receptor-mediated signal transduction, as the drug changed neither the stimulation of 45Ca2+ influx by kainate or N-methyl-D-aspartate nor the activation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis elicited by quisqualate or (+-)-1-aminocyclopentane-trans-1,3-dicarboxylic acid. Piracetam, aniracetam, and oxiracetam increased the maximal density of the specific binding sites for [3H]AMPA in synaptic membranes from rat cerebral cortex. Taken collectively, these results support the view that nootropic drugs act as positive modulators of AMPA-sensitive glutamate receptors in neurons. 相似文献

Protein Kinase C Agonists Increase the Expression of Angiotensin II Receptors in Neuronal Cultures 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1

Previous studies have shown that norepinephrine is important in the regulation of central angiotensin II receptors, an effect mediated by alpha 1-adrenergic receptors. Because alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation leads to inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and activation of protein kinase C, we have examined a possible role of this enzyme in the regulation of central angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors. In the present study, we have examined the effects of protein kinase C activators, phorbol esters, on the expression of Ang II receptors in neuronal cultures prepared from 1-day-old rat brains. The active phorbol ester phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (TPA) caused time- and concentration-dependent increases in the specific binding of [125I]Ang II to its receptors in neuronal cultures of normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rat brains. The stimulatory effect of TPA on Ang II receptors was apparent within 15 min and reached a maximum between 1 and 2 h. Ang II specific binding had returned to control levels by 24 h. Various phorbol esters increased [125I]Ang II binding in accordance with their order of potency in stimulating protein kinase C activity. Saturation and Scatchard analysis revealed that the phorbol ester-induced increase in [125I]Ang II binding was due to an increase in the number of Ang II receptors. These observations indicate that activation of protein kinase C results in an increased expression of Ang II receptors in neuronal cultures from both normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rat brains. The results suggest a possible role of phosphorylation in Ang II receptor expression in neuronal cultures. 相似文献

Treatment of intact hepatocytes with glucagon, TH-glucagon [( 1-N-alpha-trinitrophenylhistidine, 12-homoarginine]glucagon), angiotensin or vasopressin led to a rapid time- and dose-dependent loss of the glucagon-stimulated response of the adenylate cyclase activity seen in membrane fractions isolated from these cells. Intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations were only elevated with glucagon. All ligands were capable of causing both desensitization/loss of glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity and stimulation of inositol phospholipid metabolism in the intact hepatocytes. Maximally effective doses of angiotensin precluded any further inhibition/desensitizing action when either glucagon or TH-glucagon was subsequently added to these intact cells, as has been shown previously for the phorbol ester TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) [Heyworth, Wilson, Gawler & Houslay (1985) FEBS Lett. 187, 196-200]. Treatment of intact hepatocytes with these various ligands caused a selective loss of the glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in a washed membrane fraction and did not alter the basal, GTP-, NaF- and forskolin-stimulated responses. Angiotensin failed to inhibit glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity when added directly to a washed membrane fraction from control cells. Glucagon GR2 receptor-stimulated adenylate cyclase is suggested to undergo desensitization/uncoupling through a cyclic AMP-independent process, which involves the stimulation of inositol phospholipid metabolism by glucagon acting through GR1 receptors. This action can be mimicked by other hormones which act on the liver to stimulate inositol phospholipid metabolism. As the phorbol ester TPA also mimics this process, it is proposed that protein kinase C activation plays a pivotal role in the molecular mechanism of desensitization of glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase. The site of the lesion in desensitization is shown to be at the level of coupling between the glucagon receptor and the stimulatory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein Gs, and it is suggested that one or both of these components may provide a target for phosphorylation by protein kinase C. 相似文献

Abstract: A detailed analysis of the generation and subsequent metabolism of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3 ] following muscarinic cholinoceptor stimulation in primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells has been undertaken. Following incubation of cerebellar granule cell cultures with [3 H]inositol for 48 h, labelling of the inositol phospholipid pool approached equilibrium. Significant basal labelling of inositol pentakisphosphate (InsP5 ) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6 ), as well as inositol mono- to tetrakisphosphate, fractions was observed. Addition of carbachol (1 m M ) caused an immediate increase in level of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (peak increase two-fold over basal by 60 s), which was well-maintained over the initial 300 s following agonist addition. In contrast, only a modest, more slowly developing, increase in inositol tetrakisphosphate accumulation was observed, whereas labelling of InsP5 and InsP6 was entirely unaffected by carbachol stimulation. Analysis of the products of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate metabolism in broken cell preparations strongly suggested that Ins(1,4,5)P3 metabolism occurs predominantly via the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase route, with metabolism via the Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase being a relatively minor pathway. In view of the pattern of inositol (poly)phosphate metabolites observed on stimulation of the muscarinic receptor, it seems likely that, over the time course studied, the inositol polyphosphates are derived principally from phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, although some hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate cannot be excluded. 相似文献

Mechanism of phorbol diester-induced regulation of surface transferrin receptor involves the action of activated protein kinase C and an intact cytoskeleton 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Phorbol diesters are tumor-promoting agents that cause differentiation of HL60 human leukemic cells and concomitantly regulate surface transferrin receptors. Regulation of transferrin receptors by phorbol diesters involves receptor internalization in association with increased receptor phosphorylation (hyperphosphorylation). The intracellular mechanism of action of phorbol diester involves binding to and activation of the Ca2+-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). Present studies comparing results obtained with whole cells and those from a cell-free system reconstituted from purified protein kinase C and transferrin receptor components have revealed that the transferrin receptor is phosphorylated by protein kinase C activated by phorbol esters. Following tryptic digestion and two-dimensional separation of phosphopeptides of phosphorylated transferrin receptors, two major and several minor phosphoserine-containing fragments are resolved. These fragments are identical whether transferrin receptor is phosphorylated in whole cells incubated with phorbol diesters or following phosphorylation of affinity immobilized transferrin receptor in the in vitro reconstitution system. Phosphoamino acid analysis of these fragments indicates that serine is the only amino acid phosphorylated in whole cells or in the cell-free system. In addition, colchicine is shown to inhibit in a dose-dependent manner phorbol diester-induced internalization but not hyperphosphorylation of the surface transferrin receptor in whole cells. This inhibition is specific for colchicine since inactive beta- and gamma-Lumicolchicine have no such effect, while taxol reverses the inhibition. These results indicate that the phorbol diester-mediated process of down-regulation of the surface transferrin receptor is associated with phosphorylation of the receptor by activated protein kinase C and requires an intact cytoskeleton to affect receptor internalization. 相似文献

Quisqualate, a glutamate analogue, displaced L-[3H]glutamate binding in a biphasic manner, corresponding to "high-affinity" and "low-affinity" binding sites. High-affinity quisqualate sites were termed "quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate" binding sites. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding was regionally distributed, with the highest levels present in the cerebellar molecular layer. This binding was stimulated by millimolar concentrations of chloride and calcium. The stimulatory effects of calcium required the presence of chloride ions, whereas chloride's stimulatory effects did not require calcium. All of the L-[3H]glutamate binding stimulated by chloride/calcium was quisqualate sensitive and only weakly displaced by N-methyl-D-aspartate, L-aspartate, or kainate. At high concentrations (1 mM), the anion blockers 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid both reduced, by 41 and 43%, respectively, the stimulatory effects of chloride. At concentrations of 100 microM, kynurenate, L-aspartate, (RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), and L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid (L-APB) failed to displace quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding in the cerebellar molecular layer. In the presence of KSCN, however, 100 microM AMPA displaced 44% of binding. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding was not sensitive to freezing, and, in contrast to other chloride- and calcium-dependent L-[3H]glutamate binding sites that have been reported, quisqualate-sensitive binding observed by autoradiography was enhanced at 4 degrees C compared with 37 degrees C. Quisqualate-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding likely represents binding to the subclass of postsynaptic neuronal glutamate receptors known as quisqualate receptors, rather than binding to previously described APB receptors, chloride-driven sequestration into vesicles, or binding to astrocytic membrane binding sites. 相似文献

Dopamine Receptor Stimulation Does Not Affect Phosphoinositide Hydrolysis in Slices of Rat Striatum 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
The effect of dopamine receptor stimulation on the accumulation of labelled inositol phosphates in rat striatal slices under basal and stimulated conditions was examined following preincubation with [3H]inositol. Incubation of striatal slices with the selective D-1 agonist SKF 38393 or the selective D-2 agonist LY 171555 for 5 or 30 min did not affect the basal accumulation of labelled inositol mono-, bis-, tris-, and tetrakisphosphate. Resolution by HPLC of inositol trisphosphate into inositol-1,3,4-tris-phosphate and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate isomers revealed that under basal conditions dopamine did not influence the accumulation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate. Depolarisation evoked by KCl, or addition of the muscarinic receptor agonist carbachol, produced a marked increase in the accumulation of labelled inositol phosphates in both the presence and absence of lithium. Addition of dopamine did not reduce the ability of KCl or carbachol to increase inositol phospholipid hydrolysis. In the presence of lithium, dopamine (100 microM) enhanced KCl-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, but this effect appears to be mediated by alpha 1 adrenoceptors because it was blocked by prazosin. SKF 38393 (10 microM) or LY 171555 (10 microM) also did not affect carbachol-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis. These data, in contrast to recent reports, suggest that striatal dopamine receptors do not appear to be linked to inositol phospholipid hydrolysis. 相似文献

The binding of L-[3H]glutamate to an isolated membrane preparation from crayfish tail muscle has been studied. The muscle homogenate was osmotically shocked, frozen and thawed, and thoroughly washed before incubation with L-[3H]glutamate. The preparation showed high specific binding of L-glutamate with a KD of 0.12 microM and Bmax of 4.7 pmol/mg protein measured in Tris/HCl pH 7.3 and at 4 degrees C. Nonspecific binding was 5-10% of total binding. The glutamate binding was highly stereospecific [K0.5 (D-glutamate), 270 microM] and showed a high degree of discrimination between L-glutamate and L-aspartate [K0.5 (L-aspartate), 54 microM]. In mammalian CNS preparations potent agonists of L-glutamate such as kainate and N-methyl-D-aspartate had no effect at 1 mM, and quisqualate was a weak inhibitor of L-glutamate binding [K0.5 (quisqualate), 162 microM]. Ibotenate was the most potent inhibitor [K0.5 (ibotenate), 0.27 microM], and various esters of L-glutamate were of intermediate potency as displacers of L-[3H]glutamate binding (K0.5 values from 6 to 60 microM). The glutamate binding site from crayfish muscle is clearly different from any of the subclasses of glutamate receptors in mammalian CNS. A possible physiological function of the binding site is a postsynaptic receptor for glutamate, either an extra-junctional or a junctional receptor. 相似文献

This study investigates whether phorbol esters increase phosphoinositide hydrolysis in intact vascular smooth muscle, and the mechanism underlying the hydrolysis. Phorbol myristate acetate induced time- and concentration-dependent increases in phosphoinositide hydrolysis, as demonstrated by elevated inositol monophosphate levels, in deendothelialized rat aorta. The phorbol ester-elevated inositol monophosphate levels were abolished by indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, but were only partially decreased by SQ29548, a thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 receptor antagonist. SQ29548 also only partially decreased elevated inositol monophosphate levels due to prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin F2alpha, prostaglandin I2 and carbacyclin, a stable prostaglandin I2 analog. SQ29548 abolished elevated inositol monophosphate levels due to U46619, a stable thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 receptor agonist. These studies demonstrate that phorbol esters increase phosphoinositide hydrolysis in intact vascular smooth muscle, and that the increase is due, at lease in part, to endogenously released prostaglandins other than prostaglandin H2. 相似文献

Maitotoxin (MTX) stimulated inositol phosphate (IP) formation in primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells. MTX-induced IP production was dependent on extracellular Ca2+ but independent of extracellular Na+. The stimulation of IP formation elicited by MTX was unaffected by pretreatment of cells with phorbol dibutyrate, pertussis toxin, and a variety of Ca2+ entry blockers, such as nimodipine, nisoldipine, Co2+, and Mn2+. The presence of MTX markedly attenuated IP production induced by carbachol and glutamate, with no apparent effect on the responses to norepinephrine (NE), histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), and endothelin-1. The inhibition of the carbachol- and glutamate-induced responses by MTX was dose dependent with IC50 values of 1.2 and 0.5 ng/ml, respectively. Pretreatment of cells with a lower concentration of MTX (0.3 ng/ml) also attenuated carbachol- and glutamate-induced IP formation, in a time-dependent manner, with a decrease observed after 30 min prestimulation, but failed to affect NE-, histamine-, 5-HT-, endothelin-1, and sarafotoxin S6b-induced responses. Thus, MTX elicited a marked Ca2(+)-dependent phosphoinositide (PI) turnover in cerebellar granule cells and selectively inhibited carbachol- and glutamate-induced PI hydrolysis. Possible mechanisms underlying these selective modulations are discussed. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

Bombesin-related peptides stimulate a rapid increase in polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in Swiss-mouse 3T3 cells. These peptides generate an increase in the efflux of 45Ca2+ from pre-labelled cells, a response consistent with an inositol trisphosphate-mediated mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. The bombesin-stimulated release of cellular 45Ca2+ is inhibited by tumour-promoting phorbol esters (e.g. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, TPA). Although there are several possible sites of action at which this effect might occur, our results indicate that TPA induces an uncoupling of bombesin-stimulated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) without decreasing cellular binding of bombesin. In cultured cells, protein kinase C can be down-modulated by a prolonged incubation of the cells with phorbol esters. Such pretreatment greatly decreased the inhibitory effect of TPA on bombesin-stimulated PIP2 hydrolysis, suggesting that this action of the phorbol ester is mediated via protein kinase C. Since diacylglycerol is an endogenous activator of protein kinase C and a direct product of PIP2 hydrolysis, these results suggest that protein kinase C inhibition of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis may function as a negative-feedback pathway. Cells in which protein kinase C has been down-modulated show elevated basal and bombesin-stimulated production of inositol phosphates, providing evidence that such a feedback loop limits polyphosphoinositide turnover in both unstimulated and mitogen-stimulated cells. 相似文献
