Repeated pulses of cyclic AMP, applied at intervals of 5 min, efficiently induced differentiation in cells of agip 53, a morphogenetic mutant of Dictyostelium discoideum, strain Ax-2. In contrast, pulses applied at intervals of 2 min did not induce cell differentiation. To analyze this phenomenon the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP between the pulses as well as the effect of the pulses on the intracellular concentration of cyclic GMP were investigated. Experiments performed in the presence of added cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase revealed that incomplete hydrolysis of cyclic AMP was not the reason for the inefficiency of the pulses applied with a 2-min rhythm. Cyclic AMP pulses applied at intervals of 2 min induced discrete increases of the cyclic GMP concentration. Limited time resolution at the level of cyclic GMP cannot account for the inefficiency of the 2-min pulses.Based on material presented at the Symposium Intercellular Communication Stuttgart, September 16–17, 1982 相似文献

Folic acid pulses induced developmental processes in agip 71, a morphogenetic mutant of Dictyostelium discoideum, strain Ax-2. Cells that had received folic acid pulses were able to form EDTA-stable cell aggregates and to complete full differentiation to fruiting bodies. In these cells no autonomous periodic activities were observed by light scattering. Folic acid pulses elicited increases in the concentrations of cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP. In undifferentiated cells, folic acid caused a rapid increase in the level of cyclic GMP without a significant change in the level of cyclic AMP. In an advanced developmental state folic acid caused an increase in cyclic AMP in addition to two successsive peaks of cyclic GMP. Experiments performed with the parent strain, Ax-2, also showed that during the development towards aggregation competence, cells acquired the ability to produce a cyclic AMP peak in response to folic acid. 相似文献

The induction of aggregative phase functions and the acceleration of the onset of aggregation competence by nanomolar pulses of cyclic AMP can be mimicked by exposing developing cells to a high extracellular concentration of either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP (5 × 10?4M) during the first 1–2 hr of development. Pulses of cyclic AMP have previously been shown to result in oscillations of intracellular cyclic AMP concentration; we show that high extracellular concentrations of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP cause intracellular cyclic AMP levels to increase. We describe a mutant, HM11, which has elevated levels of intracellular cyclic AMP from the beginning of development and which begins to accumulate cell-associated phosphodiesterase, an aggregative phase enzyme, within an hour of starvation. Our data suggest that the expression of aggregative phase functions is controlled by an elevation of intracellular cyclic AMP which may be either continuous or periodic. 相似文献

Concentration of adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate in mouse pancreatic islets measured by a protein-binding radioassay 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
A protein-binding radioassay for cyclic AMP was modified to detect less than 0.025pmol of the nucleotide. The method was applied to the measurement of cyclic AMP in small numbers of mouse pancreatic islets (as little as 25μg of tissue) by use of barium acetate–H2SO4 for deproteinization. The concentration of cyclic AMP in mouse islets incubated in media containing 3.3 or 20mm-glucose was 0.016pmol/10 islets (approx. 1μm in intracellular water). Glucose concentration (3.3 or 20mm) had no detectable effect on islet concentrations of cyclic AMP with periods of incubation or perifusion ranging from 0.5 to 60min, although insulin release rate was rapidly increased by 20mm-glucose. Caffeine (5mm) or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (1mm), which are known inhibitors of islet cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, produced marked and rapid increases in islet cyclic AMP concentration at 3.3 or 20mm-glucose, but only enhanced the insulin release rate at the higher glucose concentration. The role of cyclic AMP in insulin release induced by glucose is discussed. 相似文献

The regulation of hypoxanthine transport activity by Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts grown in culture was examined in wild-type clones and 8-azaguanine-resistant mutant clones which lack hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. Hypoxanthine transport activity increases with increased rates of cellular growth expressed as viable cell number, total cell protein, and DNA synthesis. The transport activity for hypoxanthine declines when the fibroblasts approach confluence or after exposure to cycloheximide or actinomycin D. In vivo incubation of either fibroblast subline with 100 μm dibutyryl cyclic AMP decreases transport activity over 50%, whereas exposure to 10 μm dibutyryl cyclic GMP increases hypoxanthine uptake by 40%. A synergistic effect is observed when fibroblasts are incubated with a phosphodiesterase inhibitor (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine or theophylline) plus glucagon, an adenylate cyclase stimulator. Such additions result in a 70% decrease in the cellular transport capacity. Stimulation of hypoxanthine transport by 40% is observed following incubation with insulin. Addition of all agents produces maximum changes in the rate of hypoxanthine transport only after a 6-h in vivo incubation with the fibroblasts. These findings suggest that hypoxanthine transport is regulated by the intracellular concentration of cyclic nucleotides. This control may occur at the level of gene expression for a hypoxanthine transport protein. 相似文献

A cyclic AMP-adenosine binding protein, whose binding sites are activated by preincubation in the presence of Mg+-ATP, has been purified to apparent homogeneity from mouse liver (P.M. Ueland and S.O. Døskeland, 1977, J. Biol. Chem.,252, 677–686). The degree of activation of both the cyclic AMP binding site and a high-affinity site for adenosine depends on the concentration of ATP during the preincubation. The velocity and the degree of activation are dependent on the temperature and the presence of Mg2+ and K+. The NH4+ ion can be substituted for K+, whereas Na+ is inefficient. Low pH promotes the conversion from the inactive to the active form. The apparent affinity for adenosine to the high-affinity site for this adenine derivative and the affinity for cyclic AMP to the site specific for this nucleotide are independent of the degree of activation as judged from the slope of Scatchard plots. The activation of the cyclic AMP binding site by ATP (6 mm) was determined at pH 7 in the presence of 10 μm cyclic AMP, AMP, ADP, or adenosine. Adenosine specifically inhibits the activation and does not promote the inactivation of the binding protein. The possibility that the apparent inhibition of activation was effected by interference with cyclic AMP binding by adenosine was ruled out. 相似文献

Summary The effect of cyclic AMP on subcellular calcium turnover was studied in isolated kidney, liver and heart mitochondria. The calcium concentration of the incubating medium was determined by fluorometric methods after its separation by millipore filtration. Liver and kidney mitochondria take up calcium in exchange for H+ and lower the medium calcium to 1 to 40×10–6
m in less than 2 min. Cyclic AMP produces an instantaneous release of calcium from mitochondria and a rise in the steady-state calcium concentration of the medium. A new medium calcium level of 0.7 to 3×10–4
m is achieved in less than 3 sec and is proportional to cyclic AMP concentrations between 10–7 and 3×10–6
m. Cyclic AMP is inactive above 5×10–6
m and below 10–7
m. Cyclic IMP, 5 AMP, dibutyryl cAMP are inactive at any concentration. Cyclic GMP is active at 10–5
m and competitively inhibits cyclic AMP action. The same staedy-state calcium level is reached from higher or, lower calcium concentrations, i.e. whether cyclic AMP is added before or after the addition of calcium to the mitochondrial suspension. At low calcium or phosphate concentrations, the calcium released by cyclic AMP is immediately reaccumulated by the mitochondria is less than 2 min with a further release of H+. This pulse can be repeated by sequential additions of cyclic AMP. The transient or sustained response to cyclic AMP depends on the medium calcium x phosphate product and presumably on the presence or absence of calcium phosphate precipitate inside the mitochondria. These results support the hypothesis that cyclic AMP regulates cytoplasmic calcium by controlling the mitochondrial calcium efflux rate. This mechanism may be involved in the regulation of calcium transport and in some hormonal effects mediated by cyclic AMP. 相似文献

- 1. Accumulation of intracellular radioactivity was measured during incubation of isolated bovine thyroid cells with cyclic [32P]AMP, cyclic [8-3H]AMP and dibutyryl cyclic [8-3H]AMP. With cyclic [32P]AMP, 32P cell/medium ratios ranged from 0 to to 0.04 compared to a maximum 3H cell/medium ratio of 0.29 with cyclic [3H]AMP and 0.16 with dibutyryl cyclic [3H]AMP. The excess of intracellular cyclic [3H] over cyclic [32P]AMP radioactivity was due to extracellular formation of more penetrable dephosphorylated cyclic AMP metabolites which probably served as precursor of intra-cellular cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Aggregation in the cellular slime moldDictyostelium discoideum is due to chemotaxis. The chemoattractant, cyclic AMP, is synthesised and released periodically by the cells. Externally applied periodic pulses of cyclic AMP can also induce differentiation in this organism. The present work examines the role of periodicityper se in cyclic AMP-mediated stimulation of cell differentiation. For this purpose we use Agip53, aDictyostelium mutant which does not develop beyond the vegetative state but can be made to aggregate and differentiate by reiterated applications of cyclic AMP. Importantly, Agip53 cells do not make or release any cyclic AMP themselves even in response to an increase in extracellular cyclic AMP. A comparison of the relative efficiencies of periodic and aperiodic stimulation shows that whereas the two patterns of stimulation are equally effective in inducing the formation of EDTA-stable cell contacts, periodic stimuli are significantly superior for inducing terminal differentiation. This suggests that there must be molecular pathways which can only function when stimulation occurs at regular intervals. 相似文献

Aggregation-competent myxamoebae of the cellular slime mold Dictyostellium discoideum are known to exhibit two responses to extracellular pulses of 3′5′-cyclic AMP: an immediate chemotactic movement; and a delayed generation of intracellular cyclic AMP which is subsequently released into the medium. The mechanism of the latter, the so-called signalling response, may depend on alterations in intracellular metabolite levels and is the subject of this communication.Myxamoebae of the wild-type strain NC-4 of D. discoideum were suspended in an aerated, stirred 17 mM potassium phosphate buffer. pH 6.0, at a concentration of approx. 6 · 10?7 cells/ml (8%, v/v) at 25°C and were pulsed with 1. 10?8—1 · 10?7 M cyclic AMP at 10–20-min intervals for periods of 3–5 h over incubation of 4–9 h. Suspensions were monitored continuously for transient turbidity decreases following the cyclic AMP pulses as an indication of the magnitude and duration of the cellular response to cyclic AMP. When the pattern of turbidity decrease indicated that a signalling response had developed, samples were withdrawn at 10–15-s intervals from the suspension, inactivated with perchloric acid, and analyzed for cyclic AMP, ATP, ADP, AMP, pyruvate, and glucose 6-phosphate. In separate experiments, steady-state oxygen tension was monitored along with turbidity to detect possible changes in respiratory rate.The following consistent patterns were observed after the added cyclic AMP pulse: a transient increase in the ADP level which reaches maximum between 0.7 and 1.7 min; transient decreases in ATP and pyruvate which concide with and approximately equal the magnitude of the increase in ADP; a later increase in glucose 6-phosphate which reaches maximum approx. 2 min after the ADP 相似文献

A spontaneous mutant of the yeast Candida maltosa SBUG 700 was isolated showing pseudohyphal marphology under all growth conditions tested. The C. maltosa PHM mutant takes up glucose with the kinetics of C. maltosa SBUG 700 and starved cells contain the same cyclic AMP concentration. Addition of glucose to the PHM mutant does not result in an increase of the intracellular cyclic AMP level and in catabolite inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, malate dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. However, addition of 2,4-dinitrophenol is followed by a rapid, transient increase of the cyclic AMP level in the mutant cells, but not by catabolite inactivation. These results show that a common mechanism might be responsible for catabolite inactivation and glucose-induced cAMP signaling or that glucose-induced cAMP signaling is required for catabolite inactivation in C. maltosa. 相似文献

Osteogenic activity of six diarylheptanoids, acerogenin A (1), (R)-acerogenin B (2), aceroside I (3), aceroside B1 (4), aceroside III (5) and (−)-centrolobol (6) and two phenolic compounds; (+)-rhododendrol (7) and (+)-cathechin (8), isolated from the stem bark of Acer nikoense (Nikko maple) was evaluated using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity as a marker for early osteoblast differentiation. We found that the diphenyl ether-type cyclic diarylheptanoids 1-5 promoted ALP activity in mouse preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells without affecting cell proliferation, but linear-type diarylheptanoid 6 and phenolic compounds 7 and 8 did not. Diphenyl ether-type cyclic diarylheptanoids 1-4 also increased protein production of osteocalcin, a late stage maker for osteoblast differentiation, and induced osteoblastic mineralization. Structure-activity relationships of these compounds demonstrated that the stimulative efficacy of aglycones was higher than that of its glycosides. Taken together, diphenyl ether-type cyclic diarylheptanoids promote early- and late-stage osteoblastogenesis, which may open the possibility for the development of novel osteogenic agents. 相似文献

IN VITRO studies have suggested that adenosine 3′,′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) regulates cell morphology. During treatment with the dibutyryl analogue of cyclic AMP, N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP, transformed fibroblasts acquire several morphological characteristics of untransformed fibroblasts1,3. Cell processes are extended, the cells occupy a greater surface area and in some cases there is a parallel alignment of cells. Chinese hamster ovary cells are affected in the same way. In neuroblastoma cells5, dibutyryl cyclic AMP induces neurite extension and increases the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an indicator of biochemical differentiation6. Cyclic AMP is known to control the dispersion of melanin7,8 and the differentiation of melanoblasts into melanocytes. We have now found that during treatment with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, melanoma cells spread out, appear larger and produce considerably more pigment than untreated cells. 相似文献

The morphological conversion of Chinese hamster ovary cells induced by treatment with dibutyryl cyclic AMP is correlated with increases in the intracellular level of cyclic AMP and the activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. When cholera toxin is used to induce the increase in intracellular cyclic AMP, a similar correlation is obtained. Treatment of cells with prostaglandin E1, which causes a transient increase in intracellular cyclic AMP and a transient activation of protein kinase activity, does not result in the morphology change. From these studies we conclude that a stable activation of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, which results from an increase in intracellular cyclic AMP, induces the morphological conversion of Chinese hamster ovary cells through phosphorylation of one or more cellular components. 相似文献
