The effects of the cholinergic agonist carbachol on ouabain-sensitive K(+)-activated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase (K(+)-O2NPhPase) activity of rabbit and pig ventricular sarcolemma were examined. Carbachol (0.01-1000 microM) alone had no effect on K(+)-O2NPase. However, in the presence of GTP (100 microM) or its analog guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S], 1 microM) the agonist reduced this enzymatic activity (IC50 = 0.3 microM) by about 45% in a concentration-dependent manner. The GTP[S]-dependent effect of carbachol was blocked by 10 microM atropine, an antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAcChoR). In the presence of micromolar concentrations of ATP or the GDP analog guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate, carbachol did not change sarcolemmal K(+)-O2NPhPase activity. GTP[S] alone reduced this activity (IC50 = 2 microM) by about 40% in a concentration-dependent manner with a lag period of about 3 min. This lag disappeared in the presence of carbachol. Treatment of sarcolemmal membranes with 20 micrograms/ml pertussis toxin, which catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of the 40-41-kDa alpha-subunits of inhibitory GTP-binding protein (Gi), abolished the GTP[S]-promoted inhibitory effect of carbachol. Immunochemically, these alpha-subunits were identified as alpha 12- and alpha i3-subunits. It is suggested that the carbachol-induced inhibition of ouabain-sensitive K(+)-O2NPhPase activity of mammalian myocardial sarcolemma is a result of a negative coupling between mAcChoR and Na+/K(+)-ATPase via Gi protein. 相似文献

The tumor-promoting phorbol ester 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA), which activates protein kinase C, acted synergistically with A23187 to decrease muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) number in neuroblastoma cells (clone N1E-115) as determined by a filter binding assay using [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate in membrane homogenates. After a 6-h incubation, 10(-7) M PMA and 3 X 10(-7) M A23187 reduced mAChR number 30-40%, compared to the 40-50% reduction observed after treatment with 10(-3) M carbachol, a muscarinic agonist. Incubation with 3 X 10(-7) M A23187 and 10(-7) M 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, an inactive phorbol ester, did not alter mAChR number. The addition of PMA and A23187 to cultures incubated with 10(-3) M carbachol caused only a modest 6% further reduction in mAChR number as compared to incubation with carbachol alone. The kinetics of the decrease in mAChR number produced by PMA/A23187 were similar to those seen after carbachol treatment. Recovery of mAChR number after treatment with either carbachol or PMA/A23187 was blocked by treatment with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide. Intact cell binding studies employing [3H]N-methylscopolamine showed that treatment with either PMA/A23187 or carbachol caused a rapid (within 15 min) loss of receptors from the cell surface prior to the decrease in total mAChR number. PMA (10(-7) M), but not 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, promoted the translocation of protein kinase C activity from the cytosol to the membrane. Incubation with carbachol increased membrane-associated protein kinase C activity within 5 min with an EC50 of 3 X 10(-6) M. This increase persisted for at least 60 min in the continued presence of carbachol and was blocked by simultaneous incubation with atropine. These results suggest that activation of protein kinase C may be involved in the regulation of mAChR number in response to agonist. 相似文献

Photoaffinity-labeled N-formyl chemotactic peptide receptors from human neutrophils solubilized in octyl glucoside exhibit two forms upon sucrose density gradient sedimentation, with apparent sedimentation coefficients of approximately 4 and 7 S. The 7 S form can be converted to the 4 S form by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) with an EC50 of approximately 20 nM, suggesting that the 7 S form may represent a physical complex of the receptor with endogenous G protein (Jesaitis, A. J., Tolley, J. O., Bokoch, G. M., and Allen, R. A. (1989) J. Cell Biol. 109, 2783-2790). To probe the nature of the 7 S form, we reconstituted the 7 S form from the 4 S form by adding purified G protein. The 4 S form, obtained by solubilizing GTP gamma S-treated neutrophil plasma membranes, was incubated with purified (greater than 95%) Gi protein from bovine brain (containing both Gi alpha 1 and Gi alpha 2) or with neutrophil G protein (Gn), and formation of the 7 S complex was analyzed on sucrose density gradients. The EC50 of 7 S complex formation induced by the two G proteins was 70 +/- 25 and 170 +/- 40 nM for Gn and Gi, respectively. No complexation was measurable when bovine transducin (Gt) was used up to 30 times the EC50 for Gn. The EC50 for Gi was the same for receptors, obtained from formyl peptide-stimulated or unstimulated cells. The addition of 10 microM GTP gamma S to the reconstituted 7 S complex caused a complete revision of the receptor to the 4 S form, and anti-Gi peptide antisera immunosedimented the 7 S form. ADP-ribosylation of Gi prevented formation of the 7 S form even at 20 times the concentration of unribosylated Gi normally used to attain 50% conversion to the 7 S form. These observations suggest that the 7 S species is a physical complex containing N-formyl chemotactic peptide receptor and G protein. 相似文献

The involvement of GTP binding proteins in muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) mediated responses of cultured chick embryonic cardiac muscle cells was studied by using islet activating protein (IAP) from Bordetella pertussis. Incubation of cells for 24 h with IAP resulted in inhibition of subsequent IAP-catalyzed incorporation of [alpha-32P]ADP-ribose into membrane proteins of Mr 39 000 (No alpha) and 41 000 (Ni alpha); treatment of cultures with 5 ng/mL IAP was sufficient to ADP-ribosylate all available No alpha and Ni alpha. Inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation by the muscarinic agonist carbachol was abolished in cultures pretreated with IAP. The affinity of carbachol for the mAChR in membranes from IAP-treated cells was considerably decreased compared to control membranes and was not further decreased by addition of guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate. In contrast, the affinity of carbachol for the mAChR on intact cells was not affected by pretreatment with IAP. To investigate the involvement of No and/or Ni in mAChR-mediated increases in K+ permeability, the effect of IAP treatment on mAChR stimulation of 86Rb+ efflux was determined. Treatment of cultures with 5 ng/mL IAP for 24 h completely blocked the stimulation of 86Rb+ efflux evoked by carbachol. Because previous work has shown that mAChR regulation of K+ permeability is independent of changes in cAMP levels, these results suggest a role for No and/or Ni in coupling the mAChR directly to K+ channels in the heart. 相似文献

The effects of the cholinergic agonist carbachol (Cch) and guanine nucleotides on the Na,K-ATPase and K-dependent p-nitrophenylphosphatase (K-p-NPPase) activities in rabbit and dog myocardial sarcolemma vesicles in the presence of the pore-forming antibiotic alamethicin (20 micrograms/ml), was studied. Cch (0.01-100 microM) inhibited the both enzymatic activities by 40-45% (IC50 = 0.3-0.5 microM) only after addition of GTP (50 microM) or its analogs: GTP gamma S (0.1-1.0 microM) and Gpp(NH)p (10 microM). The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAchR) antagonist atropine (10 microM) blocked the effect of Cch. GTP gamma S alone produced a concentration-dependent decrease in the both Na,K-ATPase and K-p-NPPase activities by 40-45% (IC50 = 1-2 microM) with a lag period of about 3 minutes; this lag disappeared in the presence of the agonist. The GDP analog GDP beta S (0.01-100 microM) neither affected these activities nor promoted the inhibiting effect of Cch. Pretreatment of sarcolemmal vesicles with 20 micrograms/ml of pertussis toxin in the presence of 100 microM NAD abolished the inhibiting effect of Cch on the Na,K-ATPase and phosphatase activities. Under these conditions pertussis toxin catalyzed the ADP-ribosylation of alpha-subunits of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein (G1) which were identified immunochemically as alpha i2, alpha i3 and, possibly, alpha i1. The data obtained testify to the involvement of G1 in the mAchR-mediated inhibition of myocardial sarcolemmal Na,K-ATPase as well as in the signal transduction from the receptor to the enzyme. 相似文献

Aluminum fluoride (AlF4-) activates the heterotrimeric G protein Gs (stimulatory G protein of adenylylcyclase) (Sternweis, P. C., and Gilman, A. G. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 79, 4888-4891) and GT (transducin), and for GT, Bigay et al. (Bigay, J., Deterre, P., Pfister, C., and Chabre, M. (1985) FEBS Lett. 191, 181-185) have made the intriguing proposal that AlF4- acts by mimicking the gamma-phosphate of GTP. The endogenous G protein (probably G alpha i-2 or G alpha i-3 (Yatani, A., Mattera, R., Codina, J., Graf, R., Okabe, K., Padrell, E., Iyengar, R., Brown, A. M., and Birnbaumer, L. (1988) Nature 336, 680-682) that stimulates the muscarinic atrial K+ (K+[ACh]) channel is also thought to be activated by AlF4- (Kurachi, Y., Nakajima, T., and Ito, H. (1987) Circulation 76, 105P). To investigate the AlF4- mechanism, we applied potassium fluoride (KF) to the cytoplasmic face of inside-out membrane patches excised from guinea pig atria. We found that KF activated single K+[ACh] channel currents in both a concentration- and a Mg(2+)-dependent manner. Activation persisted following removal of KF, but unlike activation by guanosine 5'-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), was fully reversed by removal of Mg2+. Evidence for Al3+ involvement was that the Al3+ chelator deferoxamine (500 microM) inhibited KF activation and that at low concentrations of KF (less than 1 mM), micromolar AlCl3 concentrations potentiated KF stimulation. The rate of activation produced by KF was far slower than the rate produced by GTP or GTP gamma S, and unlike these guanine nucleotides, the rate was unchanged in the presence of agonist. To test the gamma-phosphate-mimicking hypothesis, we evaluated the requirement for GDP; and to accomplish this, it was necessary to establish a condition that ensured exchange of guanine nucleotides. This condition was satisfied by using the muscarinic agonist carbachol because both the rate and the extent of activation of the K+[ACh] channels produced by GTP were much faster in carbachol, and both were greatly slowed when GDP was added along with GTP. By contrast, the effects of KF were unchanged by carbachol in the presence or absence of GDP. Further evidence that GDP is not essential for activation by AlF4- was provided by the observation that during carbachol activation and following extensive washing with GMP, guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) at blocking concentrations had no effect on activation produced by KF.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The effect of short-term cholinergic desensitization on muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR)-mediated activation of phospholipase C was investigated in membranes isolated from the bovine iris sphincter smooth muscle. Membranes prepared from normal or desensitized muscles, prelabeled with either [3H]myo-inositol or 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP, were incubated with a hydrolysis-resistant analogue of GTP, GTP gamma S, or GTP gamma S plus carbachol (CCh), and the production of [3H]myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and the breakdown of polyphosphoinositides were assessed. In normal membranes, GTP (greater than or equal to 1 mM), GTP gamma S (greater than 10 microM) and GTP gamma S (1 microM) plus CCh (10 microM), but not GDP or GDP beta S, increased phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and IP3 production. GTP gamma S increased IP3 accumulation in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and CCh, which had no effect on phospholipase C activity in the absence of GTP gamma S, potentiated the effects of GTP gamma S. The effect of CCh plus GTP gamma S on IP3 production was inhibited by atropine, had an absolute requirement for nM amounts of Ca2+ and was not affected by pertussis toxin. At higher concentrations (greater than 1 microM), Ca2+ alone induced PIP2 hydrolysis. Short-term exposure (less than 60 min) of the muscle to CCh (100 microM) did not affect the total number (Bmax) of mAChRs nor their affinity (KD) for [3H]-N-methylscopolamine. Desensitization did, however, result in: (1) a loss of the CCh-high affinity binding state of the sphincter mAChRs in a manner analogous to that produced by GTP gamma S; (2) a loss of the ability of GTP gamma S to affect CCh binding to the receptors; and (3) an attenuation of the GTP gamma S plus CCh-stimulated PIP2 hydrolysis. In conclusion, the data presented suggest that, in the iris smooth muscle, G-proteins are involved in the coupling of mAChRs to phospholipase C and that short-term cholinergic desensitization results in (1) the uncoupling of the receptor-G-protein complex and (2) the attenuation of mAChR-activation of phospholipase C. 相似文献

Studies on the hepatic alpha 1-adrenergic receptor. Modulation of guanine nucleotide effects by calcium, temperature, and age 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The effects of guanine nucleotides on the hepatic alpha 1-adrenergic receptor were studied using norepinephrine (NE) displacement of [3H]prazosin binding to rat liver plasma membranes. Nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues caused large rightward shifts of norepinephrine displacement curves of [3H]prazosin binding in EGTA-treated membranes, but only small shifts in membranes prepared with Ca2+. The effect of a brief Ca2+ exposure on NE displacement curves was not reversed by adding excess EGTA prior to binding experiments. Analysis of the curves showed that the EGTA membranes had an increased number of high affinity agonist sites (Kd, 42 nM) and that guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (GppNHp) converted these to low affinity sites (Kd, 1039 nM). When binding was carried out at 2 degrees C, the norepinephrine displacement curves were shifted to the left, and GppNHp was without effect. Neither EGTA, Ca2+, nor 2 degrees C treatment altered [3H]prazosin binding per se. Attempts were made to differentiate the potency order of GTP analogues which alter glucagon receptor binding (presumably mediated by the stimulatory GTP-binding protein, Na, of the adenylate cyclase system) from the potency order of GTP analogues which alter alpha 1-receptor agonist binding (presumably mediated by a yet uncharacterized GTP-binding protein which some have speculated may be distinct from Ns). However, the potency series of GTP analogues to alter norepinephrine binding was GTP gamma S greater than GppNHp greater than or equal to GTP greater than or equal to GDP greater than or equal to GppCHp greater than GMP (where GTP gamma S represents guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) and GppCHp represents guanyl-5'-yl (beta, gamma-methylene)diphosphonate) and was identical to that for inhibition of [125I]iodoglucagon binding. The ability of GppNHp to alter norepinephrine displacement of [3H]prazosin binding increased with the age of the rat from which membranes were prepared. This was due to the fact that juvenile rats (50-75 g) had few alpha 1-receptors in the high affinity state, whereas in old rats (430-490 g) more of the receptors were in this form. Age has previously been shown to increase alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation of cAMP in isolated hepatocytes (Morgan, N.G., Blackmore, P. F., and Exton, J. H. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 5103-5109) but did not affect the dose-response curves for norepinephrine-induced Ca2+ mobilization and phosphorylase activation in these cells. These data suggest that alpha 1-adrenergic receptors can become coupled to a guanine nucleotide-responsive moiety in hepatic plasma membranes and that this may be similar to Ns.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The G-protein involved in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor signaling was identified using two different approaches. First, purified rat liver membranes were incubated with [alpha-32P]GTP in the absence or presence of the adrenergic agonist (-)-epinephrine, or in the presence of GTP. After UV irradiation, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and autoradiography, covalent labeling of a number of proteins was apparent and could be blocked by unlabeled GTP. In the preparation treated with (-)-epinephrine alone, labeling of a 74-kDa species was markedly enhanced. Enhanced labeling of 40-50-kDa species was also observed. Labeling of the 74-kDa protein was also evident in similarly treated membranes prepared from FRTL-5 thyroid cells, which contain abundant alpha 1-adrenergic receptors, but not in those prepared from turkey erythrocytes or NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, which are essentially devoid of alpha 1-receptors. Second, alpha 1-agonist-receptor-G-protein ternary complex formation was induced by incubating purified rat liver membranes with (-)-epinephrine. Rauwolscine (10(-7) M) and (+/-)-propranolol (10(-6) M) were included to prevent activation of alpha 2- and beta-adrenergic receptors by (-)-epinephrine. The ternary complex of hormone, receptor, and G-protein was solubilized, partially purified using heparin- and wheat germ agglutinin-agarose, and reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles. The vesicles displayed agonist-stimulated guanosine 5'-O-3-thiotriphosphate (GTP gamma S) binding that was blocked by phentolamine (10(-4) M). By contrast, stimulation of GTP gamma S binding was not evident when the vesicles were incubated with the beta-agonist, isoproterenol. Incubation of the vesicles with [alpha-32P]GTP or [alpha-32P]azido-GTP in the presence of (-)-epinephrine, followed by photolysis, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and autoradiography, resulted in the covalent labeling of a 74-kDa protein. Labeling of this protein could be blocked by preincubation with phentolamine or unlabeled GTP. These findings provide direct evidence for the coupling of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor to a previously uncharacterized G-protein (termed Gh), which has an apparent molecular mass of approximately 74 kDa. 相似文献

Guanine nucleotides have been shown to stimulate phosphoinositide breakdown in brain membranes, but no potentiation of such an effect by agonist was demonstrated. We have studied the effect of carbachol and histamine on guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) stimulation of inositol phosphates formation in [3H]inositol-labelled rat brain cortical membranes. In this preparation, GTP[S] enhancement of phosphoinositide hydrolysis required the presence of MgATP and low Ca2+ concentration (100 nM). Carbachol potentiation of the GTP[S] effect was only observed when 1 mM-deoxycholate was also added. Under these conditions, stimulated production of [3H]inositol phosphates was linear for at least 15 min, and [3H]inositol bisphosphate [( 3H]IP2) accounted for approx. 80%, whereas the amount of [3H]inositol trisphosphate [( 3H]IP3) was very low. Stimulation by GTP[S] was concentration-dependent (half-maximal effect at 0.86 microM), and its maximal effect (815% over basal) was increased by 1 mM-carbachol (1.9-fold) and -histamine (1.7-fold). Both agonists decreased the slope index of the GTP[S] concentration/effect curve to values lower than unity, suggesting the appearance of some heterogeneity in the population of guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins) involved. The carbachol and histamine effects were also concentration-dependent, and were inhibited by atropine and mepyramine respectively. Fluoroaluminate stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis to a higher extent than GTP[S] plus carbachol, and these stimulations were not additive, indicating that the same polyphosphoinositide phospholipase C-coupled G-protein mediates both effects. 相似文献

Atria isolated from 4-day chick embryos were much less responsive to the negative chronotropic effect of muscarinic agonists than were atria from 5- or 8-day embryos, even though the density of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) was similar at all these ages. The mAChR in hearts from 4-day embryos were also significantly less susceptible to regulation of receptor number by in vivo agonist treatment and required a 2-5-fold greater dose of the muscarinic agonist carbachol to achieve a decrease in receptor number equivalent to that observed in 5- or 8-day embryonic hearts. When 4-day atrial membranes were assayed in physiological buffers, agonist binding to the mAChR was not regulated by GTP unless a sulfhydryl reducing agent was present. Receptors from 5- and 8-day embryos did not require addition of a sulfhydryl reducing agent in order to see guanine nucleotide effects on agonist binding. Even in the presence of a sulfhydryl reducing agent, carbachol binding to the mAChR in 4-day membranes was much less sensitive to guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (GppNHp) than binding to mAChR in 5- or 8-day membranes. In addition, forskolin-activated adenylate cyclase activity was much less sensitive to inhibition by GppNHp in membranes from 4-day atria than from 5- and 8-day atria. The GTP-binding component (NI) which couples the mAChR to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity was examined by covalent modification with pertussis toxin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Rabbit brain cortical membranes, which have been extracted with 2 M KCl, hydrolyze exogenously added [3H]phosphatidylinositol [( 3H]PI) in a guanine nucleotide- and carbachol-dependent manner. Both oxotremorine-M and carbachol are full agonists with EC50 values of 8 and 73 microM, respectively. Pirenzepine and atropine inhibit carbachol-stimulated [3H]PI hydrolysis. The hydrolysis-resistant guanine nucleotide analog guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) is the most potent in supporting carbachol-stimulated hydrolysis of PI. There is no effect of carbachol in the absence of guanine nucleotides or in the presence of 100 microM adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), adenosine-5'-(beta, gamma-imido)triphosphate, or sodium pyrophosphate. Guanylyl-5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate [Gpp(NH)p] in the presence of carbachol also stimulates PI hydrolysis although much less than that seen with GTP gamma S. GDP and Gpp(NH)p are potent antagonists of the GTP gamma S-dependent carbachol response. Optimal stimulation by carbachol and GTP gamma S was observed at 0.3-1 microM free Ca2+ and 6 mM MgCl2. Limited trypsinization resulted in loss of receptor-regulated PI breakdown and a slight decrease in basal activity. These results demonstrate that phospholipase C hydrolysis of exogenous PI by rabbit cortical membranes may be stimulated by carbachol in a guanine nucleotide-dependent manner. 相似文献

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) inhibits cardiac adenylate cyclase activity by interacting with specific receptors coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. Structure-activity studies revealed that only C-terminal fragments can exhibit an NPY-like inhibitory effect on 125I-NPY binding and adenylate cyclase activity of rat cardiac ventricular membranes. Although NPY(17-36) inhibited 125I-NPY binding with high potency, it produced a biphasic effect on basal (GTP, 10 and 100 microM or guanosine 5'-gamma-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S, 10 microM) adenylate cyclase activity. Low concentrations (less than 1 nM) of NPY(17-36) inhibited the adenylate cyclase activity whereas high concentrations (greater than 1 nM) reversed this action. GTP gamma S (100 microM) reversed the biphasic effect of NPY(17-36). NPY(17-36) exhibited only a stimulatory effect in the membranes from pertussis toxin-treated rats and an inhibitory effect with membranes from cholera toxin-treated rats. Low concentrations (less than 1 nM) of NPY(17-36) inhibited isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity whereas high doses (greater than 1 nM) reversed this activity. The cardiac NPY receptor antagonist, NPY(18-36) (1 microM), completely blocked the biphasic effect of NPY(17-36) on isoproterenol-stimulated activity. The inhibitory dose-response curve of NPY on isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was shifted parallel to the right by NPY(17-36) (1 microM), suggesting that it is an antagonist of NPY at high concentrations. N-alpha-acetylated and C-terminally deamidated analogs of NPY(17-36) had no effect on the adenylate cyclase activity. [im-DNP-His26] NPY exhibited a more pronounced biphasic effect whereas N-alpha-myristoyl-NPY(17-36) elicited only a stimulatory effect. These investigations suggest that: 1) the inhibitory and stimulatory effects of NPY(17-36) are mediated by high affinity NPY receptors coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein and a distinct population of low affinity receptors coupled to a cholera toxin-sensitive G protein, respectively; and 2) the stimulatory effect of NPY(17-36) is dissociable. 相似文献

To determine whether muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) in the post-ischemic hippocampus may be involved in altered extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) signal transduction, we have investigated changes in the activity of ERK1/2 induced by a muscarinic agonist, carbachol. Cerebral ischemia was produced in the rat by injecting 900 microspheres (48 microm in diameter) into the right internal carotid artery. Applying carbachol to the contralateral hippocampal slices from ischemic rats increased the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 but did not increase phosphorylation in the ipsilateral hippocampus. Analysis of M(1) mAChR binding showed that there was no significant difference in the number and K(d) values between the hippocampi from na?ve and ischemic rats. Immunoblotting analysis showed no significant difference in the amount of M(1) mAChR in both hemispheres. In contrast to carbachol stimulation, the protein kinase C activator induced an activation of ERK1/2 in the ipsilateral hippocampus. This increase was shown to occur in neurons by immunofluorescence colocalization study. Carbachol-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the G alpha(q/11), inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation, and association of G alpha(q/11) with phospholipase C beta 1 were attenuated in the ipsilateral hippocampus. We also found that stimulation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, which are linked to G alpha(q/11), failed to increase in phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in the ipsilateral hippocampus. These results suggest that failure in receptor-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of the G alpha(q/11) subunit and a defect in receptor-G alpha(q/11-)effector coupling in the ischemic hippocampus may be involved in alterations of ERK signal transduction. 相似文献

The human m1 (hm1) and m2 (hm2) muscarinic cholinergic receptors (mAChR) expressed in Sf9 insect cells using recombinant baculovirus were tested for their ability to undergo agonist-dependent phosphorylation and desensitization. The muscarinic agonist carbachol induced phosphorylation of the hm2 mAChR in the Sf9 cells incubated with 32P(i) to an extent of 4-5 mol of phosphate/mol of receptor. In contrast, no phosphorylation of the hm1 mAChR was observed. The hm2 mAChR stimulated [35S]GTP gamma S binding to, and GTPase activity of, the insect cell G-proteins. These receptor-mediated activities were reduced by 50% in membranes prepared from agonist-treated cells compared to control, suggesting that the agonist-induced phosphorylation of the hm2 mAChR resulted in desensitization of the receptors. No role for protein kinase C or cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases in receptor phosphorylation and desensitization was suggested from studies using agents known to modulate the activity of these enzymes. However, pertussis toxin was found to completely eliminate the interaction of the hm2 receptors with the insect cell G-proteins, but did not perturb the ability of carbachol to induce agonist-dependent phosphorylation of the receptors. These results suggested that G-proteins and/or G-protein-activated signalling were not necessary for the agonist-induced phosphorylation of the receptors. Overall, the data indicated that the human m2 (but not the human m1) mAChR expressed in Sf9 insect cells undergo phosphorylation and desensitization in an agonist-dependent, G-protein-independent fashion by an endogenous insect cell kinase. The results demonstrated that a human G-protein-linked receptor is regulated in insect cells in a manner that is similar to that involving members of the G-protein receptor-kinase family. 相似文献

Vasopressin (V2) receptors were solubilized from porcine kidney membranes with the detergent egg lysolecithin. Binding of [3H]vasopressin to the solubilized fraction was rapid, specific, and saturable. The agonist dissociation constants observed in membranes and solubilized fractions were 1.7 +/- 0.3 and 2.3 +/- 0.2 nM, respectively. In competition binding experiments, the solubilized fraction exhibited the same pharmacological profile as the membranes. Chemical crosslinking of [125I]vasopressin to the solubilized fraction followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis demonstrated a 62-kDa band which was specifically labeled with [125I]vasopressin. Vasopressin binding sites from the solubilized fractions were resolved by gel filtration and ultracentrifugation on a sucrose gradient. In addition, agonist high affinity binding to V2 receptors and its sensitivity to guanine nucleotides were preserved even after solubilization in the absence of prebound agonist prior to solubilization. Addition of guanine nucleotides such as GTP gamma S decreased the specific binding of [3H]arginine vasopressin to these solubilized fractions in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting the solubilization of a V2 receptor-G protein complex. [32P]ADP ribosylation of the solubilized fraction by cholera and pertussis toxins revealed specifically labeled proteins with molecular weights of 42,000-43,000 and 39,000-41,000, respectively, on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels. Furthermore [35S]GTP gamma S binding to these solubilized fractions was enhanced by vasopressin, confirming that a significant proportion of the vasopressin receptors must be closely coupled to G proteins even when these receptors are solubilized in the absence of agonist. These results are in contrast with those reported for beta, alpha 2 adrenergic and D2 dopaminergic receptor systems, but in agreement with D1 dopaminergic and A1 adenosine receptors. The molecular mechanism responsible for this difference remains to be determined. 相似文献

An iodoazido[125I]prazosin analogue was employed to photoaffinity label alpha 1-adrenergic receptors in rat liver plasma membranes. Labeled proteins were separated by gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate, and (-)-epinephrine displacement of [3H]prazosin binding was concurrently measured in the presence or absence of guanosine 5'-O-(gamma-thiotriphosphate) (GTP[gamma S]). Inclusion of EGTA and/or proteinase inhibitors during membrane preparation and incubation increased the effect of GTP[gamma S] on alpha 1-adrenergic agonist binding and this could be correlated with increased concentrations of a 78 kDa photoaffinity labeled protein. In contrast, omission of EGTA or addition of exogenous Ca2+ diminished or abolished the effect of GTP[gamma S] on binding and caused loss of the 78 kDa form and the appearance of lower molecular weight labeled proteins. Age-dependent differences in GTP[gamma S] effects on alpha 1-adrenergic agonist binding were abolished when membranes were prepared and incubated in the presence of EGTA and proteinase inhibitors. However, the 78 kDa photoaffinity labeled protein observed in adult rats (over 225 g body weight) was not apparent in membranes from younger rats (50-75 g), even when the membranes were prepared and incubated in the presence of EGTA and proteinase inhibitors. Instead, a 68 kDa species was the major labeled protein. These data suggest that GTP effects on alpha 1-adrenergic agonist binding in rat liver membranes require the presence of either a 68 or 78 kDa alpha 1-adrenergic binding protein. Failure to inhibit proteolysis in the membranes leads to the generation of lower-molecular-weight binding proteins and the loss of GTP effects on alpha 1-adrenergic agonist binding, although [3H]prazosin binding characteristics are not changed. It is suggested that either the proteolyzed forms of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor are unable to couple to a putative guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein, or that such a protein is concurrently proteolyzed and is thus unable to couple to the receptor. 相似文献

Expression and Agonist-Induced Down-Regulation of mRNAs of m2- and m3-Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Cultured Cerebellar Granule Cells 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
The regulation and expression of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) mRNA was studied in cultured cerebellar granule cells using Northern blot hybridization, mRNA species for m2- and m3-mAChRs but not m1- and m4-mAChRs were detected in these cells. The expression of mRNAs of both m2- and m3-mAChRs reached a maximum on the tenth day in culture but their expression patterns differed. Treatment of cerebellar granule cells after 8 days in culture with 100 microM carbachol led to differential down-regulation of the mRNA species of both mAChR subtypes present. Muscarinic receptor antagonists, atropine (1 microM) and pirenzepine (10 microM), prevented carbachol-induced m3-mAChR mRNA down-regulation observed at 8 h. However, exposure to either atropine or pirenzepine alone for 8 h led to a significant up-regulation of m3-mAChR mRNA. Thus, the mRNA species for both m2- and m3-mAChR subtypes are differentially expressed in culture and down-regulated by agonist stimulation. The loss of these mRNA species may play a role in the down-regulation of mAChR binding sites that occurs after desensitization. 相似文献

The monoclonal antibody, MONO, recognizes an epitope on the G protein alpha o-subunit [van der Voorn et al., submitted] and readily immunoprecipitates heterotrimeric Go proteins from solubilized, crude bovine brain membranes, as well as from a purified bovine brain G protein preparation. Upon incubation of the immunoprecipitates with GTP gamma S, all beta gamma-subunits are released from the alpha o-subunit. Thus, binding of MONO to the Go protein does not appear to interfere with release of bound GDP, binding of GTP gamma S or GTP gamma S-induced subunit dissociation. However, we have been unable to induce a similar dissociation of Go using its physiological activator, GTP. Surprisingly, we did not observe any dissociation of Go (bound to MONO) upon dilution in a range from 500 to 5 nM. Since an apparent Kd of alpha o-GDP for binding beta gamma of 340-390 nM has been reported [(1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 20688-20696] our results would suggest that binding of MONO to the alpha o-subunit induces an increased affinity of alpha o-GDP for beta gamma. Alternatively, these results could be explained if, under the conditions used, the Kd of alpha o-GDP for beta gamma were at least two orders of magnitude lower than estimated previously. 相似文献
