The kidney maintains water homeostasis by modulating aquaporin 2 (AQP2) on the plasma membrane of collecting duct principal cells in response to vasopressin (VP). VP mediated phosphorylation of AQP2 at serine 256 is critical for this effect. However, the role of phosphorylation of other serine residues in the AQP2 C-terminus is less well understood. Here, we examined the effect of phosphorylation of S256, S261 and S269 on AQP2 trafficking and association with recycling pathway markers. We used LLC-PK1 cells expressing AQP2(S-D) or (S-A) phospho mutants and a 20°C cold block, which allows endocytosis to continue, but prevents protein exit from the trans Golgi network (TGN), inducing formation of a perinuclear AQP2 patch. AQP2-S256D persists on the plasma membrane during cold block, while wild type AQP2, AQP2-S256A, S261A, S269A and S269D are internalized and accumulate in the patch. Development of this patch, a measure of AQP2 internalization, was most rapid with AQP2-S256A, and slowest with S261A and S269D. AQP2-S269D exhibited a biphasic internalization profile with a significant amount not internalized until 150 minutes of cold block. After rewarming to 37°C, wt AQP2, AQP2-S261A and AQP2-S269D rapidly redistributed throughout the cytoplasm within 20 minutes, whereas AQP2-S256A dissipated more slowly. Colocalization of AQP2 mutants with several key vesicular markers including clathrin, HSP70/HSC70, EEA, GM130 and Rab11 revealed no major differences. Overall, our data provide evidence supporting the role of S256 and S269 in the maintenance of AQP2 at the cell surface and reveal the dynamics of internalization and recycling of differentially phosphorylated AQP2 in cell culture. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated roles for vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP 2) and VAMP 8 in Ca(2+)-regulated pancreatic acinar cell secretion, however, their coordinated function in the secretory pathway has not been addressed. Here we provide evidence using immunofluorescence microscopy, cell fractionation, and SNARE protein interaction studies that acinar cells contain two distinct populations of zymogen granules (ZGs) expressing either VAMP 2 or VAMP 8. Further, VAMP 8-positive granules also contain the synaptosome-associated protein 29, whereas VAMP 2-expressing granules do not. Analysis of acinar secretion by Texas red-dextran labeling indicated that VAMP 2-positive ZGs mediate the majority of exocytotic events during constitutive secretion and also participate in Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis, whereas VAMP 8-positive ZGs are more largely involved in Ca(2+)-stimulated secretion. Previously undefined functional roles for VAMP and syntaxin isoforms in acinar secretion were established by introducing truncated constructs of these proteins into permeabilized acini. VAMP 2 and VAMP 8 constructs each attenuated Ca(2+)-stimulated exocytosis by 50%, whereas the neuronal VAMP 1 had no effects. In comparison, the plasma membrane SNAREs syntaxin 2 and syntaxin 4 each inhibited basal exocytosis, but only syntaxin 4 significantly inhibited Ca(2+)-stimulated secretion. Syntaxin 3, which is expressed on ZGs, had no effects. Collectively, these data demonstrate that individual acinar cells express VAMP 2- and VAMP 8-specific populations of ZGs that orchestrate the constitutive and Ca(2+)-regulated secretory pathways. 相似文献

Transepithelial water permeability was measured in LLC-PK1 cells stably transfected with aquaporins (AQPs): AQP1, AQP2, and
a chimera of AQP1 and AQP2 containing 41 amino acids of the C-terminus of AQP2. Transepithelial water fluxes (Jw) were not
previously reported in cells transfected with aquaporins. Jw were now recorded each minute using a specially developed experimental
device. A significant increase in Posm after forskolin (FK) plus vasopressin (VP) was found in AQP2 transfected cells (39.9
± 8.2 vs. 12.5 ± 3.3 cm · sec−1· 10−3), but not in cells transfected with AQP1 (15.3 ± 3.6 vs. 13.4 ± 3.6 cm · sec−1· 10−3). In the case of the AQP1/2 cells (chimera) the FK plus VP induced Posm was smaller than in AQP2 cells but significantly
higher than in mock cells at rest (18.1 ± 4.8 vs. 6.7 ± 1.0 cm · sec−1· 10−3). The increases in Posm values were not paralleled by increases in 14C-Mannitol permeability. HgCl2 inhibited the hydrosmotic response to FK plus VP in AQP2 transfected epithelia. Results were comparable to those observed,
in parallel experiments, in a native ADH-sensitive water channel containing epithelial barrier (the toad urinary bladder).
Electron microscopy showed confluent LLC-PK1 cells with microvilli at the mucosal border. The presence of spherical or elongated
intracellular vacuoles was observed in AQP2 transfected cells, specially after FK plus VP stimulus and under an osmotic gradient.
These results demonstrate regulated transepithelial water permeability in epithelial cells transfected with AQP2.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Aquaporin 2 (AQP2) plays an important, VP (vasopressin)-regulated role in water reabsorption by the kidney. The amount of AQP2 expressed at the surface of principal cells results from an equilibrium between the AQP2 in intracellular vesicles and the AQP2 on the plasma membrane. VP shifts the equilibrium in favour of the plasma membrane and this allows osmotic equilibration to occur between the collecting duct lumen and the interstitial space. Membrane accumulation of AQP2 could result from a VP-induced increase in exocytosis, a decrease in endocytosis, or both. In the present study, we further investigated AQP2 accumulation at the cell surface, and compared it with V2R (VP type 2 receptor) trafficking using cells that express epitope-tagged AQP2 and V2R. RESULTS: Endocytosis of V2R and of AQP2 are independent events that can be separated temporally and spatially. The burst of endocytosis seen after VP addition to target cells, when AQP2 accumulates at the cell surface, is primarily due to internalization of the V2R. Increased endocytosis is not induced by forskolin, which also induces membrane accumulation of AQP2 by direct stimulation of adenylate cyclase. This indicates that cAMP elevation is not the primary cause of the initial, VP-induced endocytic process. After VP exposure, AQP2 is not located in endosomes with internalized V2R. Instead, it remains at the cell surface in 'endocytosis-resistant' membrane domains, visualized by confocal imaging. After VP washout, AQP2 is progressively internalized with the fluid-phase marker FITC-dextran, indicating that VP washout releases an endocytotic block that maintains AQP2 at the cell surface. Finally, polarized application of VP to filter-grown cells shows that apical VP can induce basolateral endocytosis and V2R down-regulation, and vice versa. CONCLUSIONS: After VP stimulation of renal epithelial cells, AQP2 accumulates at the cell surface, while the V2R is actively internalized. This endocytotic block may involve a reduced capacity of phosphorylated AQP2 to interact with components of the endocytotic machinery. In addition, a complex cross-talk exists between the apical and basolateral plasma-membrane domains with respect to endocytosis and V2R down-regulation. This may be of physiological significance in down-regulating the VP response in the kidney in vivo. 相似文献

Lactating mammary epithelial cells secrete high levels of caseins and other milk proteins. The extent to which protein secretion from these cells occurs in a regulated fashion was examined in experiments on secretory acini isolated from the mammary glands of lactating mice at 10 d postpartum. Protein synthesis and secretion were assayed by following the incorporation or release, respectively, of [35S]methionine-labeled TCA-precipitable protein. The isolated cells incorporated [35S]methionine into protein linearly for at least 5 h with no discernible lag period. In contrast, protein secretion was only detectable after a lag of approximately 1 h, consistent with exocytotic secretion of proteins immediately after passage through the secretory pathway and package into secretory vesicles. The extent of protein secretion was unaffected by the phorbol ester PMA, 8-bromo-cAMP, or 8-bromo-cGMP but was doubled by the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin. In a pulse-label protocol in which proteins were prelabeled for 1 h before a chase period, constitutive secretion was unaffected by depletion of cytosolic Ca2+ but ionomycin was found to give a twofold stimulation of the secretion of presynthesized protein in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Ionomycin was still able to stimulate protein secretion after constitutive secretion had terminated. These results suggest that lactating mammary cells possess both a Ca(2+)-independent constitutive pathway and a Ca(2+)-activated regulatory pathway for protein secretion. The same proteins were secreted by both pathways. No ultrastructural evidence for apocrine secretion was seen in response to ionomycin and so it appears that regulated casein release involves exocytosis. Ionomycin was unlikely to be acting by disassembling the cortical actin network since cytochalasin D did not mimic its effects on secretion. The regulated pathway may be controlled by Ca2+ acting at a late step such as exocytotic membrane fusion. 相似文献

The constitutive and regulated secretory pathways represent the classical routes for secretion of proteins from neuroendocrine cells. Selective aggregation of secretory granule constituents in an acidic, bivalent cation-rich environment is considered to be a prerequisite for sorting to the regulated secretory pathway. The effect of selective vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) inhibitor bafilomycin A1 on the pH gradient along the secretory pathway was used here to study the role of acidification on the trafficking of the regulated secretory protein chromogranin A (CgA) in PC12 cells. Sorting of CgA was assessed by three-dimensional deconvolution microscopy, subcellular fractionation, and secretagogue-stimulated release, examining a series of full-length or truncated domains of human CgA (CgA-(1-115), CgA-(233-439)) fused to either green fluorescent protein or to a novel form of secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (EAP). We show that a full-length CgA/EAP chimera is sorted to chromaffin granules for exocytosis. Inhibition of V-ATPase by bafilomycin A1 markedly reduced the secretagogue-stimulated release of CgA-EAP by perturbing sorting of the chimera (at the trans-Golgi network or immature secretory granule) rather than the late steps of exocytosis. The effect of bafilomycin A1 on CgA secretion depends on a sorting determinant located within the amino terminus (CgA-(1-115)) but not the C-terminal region of the granin. Moreover, examination of chromaffin granule abundance in PC12 cells exposed to bafilomycin A1 reveals a substantial decrease in the number of dense-core vesicles. We propose that a V-ATPase-mediated pH gradient in the secretory pathway is an important factor for the formation of dense-core granules by regulating the ability of CgA to form aggregates, a crucial step that may underlie the granulogenic function of the protein. 相似文献

Although the organization and functions of the constitutive secretory pathway have been intensively studied for decades, a recent genome-wide RNAi screen in Drosophila cells has identified about 100 genes encoding novel so-called TANGO proteins (for transport and Golgi organization) that may be direct regulators of various aspects of protein exocytosis or secretion. 相似文献

Members of the aquaporin (AQP) water channel family are widely distributed in various tissues and contribute to the water permeability of epithelial and endothelial cells. Currently 11 members of the AQP family (AQP0-10) have been reported in mammals. Here we report the identification of AQP12, which we found by performing a BLAST program search. Northern blot analysis revealed that AQP12 was specifically expressed in the pancreas. Further analysis by in situ hybridization and RT-PCR studies showed that AQP12 was selectively localized in the acinar cells of the pancreas. To analyze the cellular localization and function of AQP12, we expressed AQP12 in Xenopus oocytes and cultured mammalian cells. Immunocytochemistry revealed that AQP12 was not targeted to the plasma membrane. The selective localization of AQP12 in pancreatic acinar cells and possibly in the intracellular organelles suggests a role of AQP12 in digestive enzyme secretion such as maturation and exocytosis of secretory granules. 相似文献

Aquaporin 1 is important for maintaining secretory granule biogenesis in endocrine cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Aquaporins (AQPs), a family of water channels expressed in epithelial cells, function to transport water in a bidirectional manner to facilitate transepithelial fluid absorption and secretion. Additionally, AQP1 and AQP5 are found in pancreatic zymogen granules and synaptic vesicles and are involved in vesicle swelling and exocytosis in exocrine cells and neurons. Here, we show AQP1 is in dense-core secretory granule (DCSG) membranes of endocrine tissue: pituitary and adrenal medulla. The need for AQP1 in endocrine cell function was examined by stable transfection of AQP1 antisense RNA into AtT20 cells, a pituitary cell line, to down-regulate AQP1 expression. These AQP1-deficient cells showed more than 60% depletion of DCSGs and significantly decreased DCSG protein levels, including proopiomelanocotin/pro-ATCH and prohormone convertase 1/3, but not non-DCSG proteins. Pulse-chase studies revealed that whereas DCSG protein synthesis was unaffected, approximately 50% of the newly synthesized proopiomelanocortin was degraded within 1 h. Low levels of ACTH were released upon stimulation, indicating that the small number of DCSGs that were made in the presence of the residual AQP1 were functionally competent for exocytosis. Analysis of anterior pituitaries from AQP1 knockout mice showed reduced prohormone convertase 1/3, carboxypeptidase E, and ACTH levels compared to wild-type mice demonstrating that our results observed in AtT20 cells can be extended to the animal model. Thus, AQP1 is important for maintaining DCSG biogenesis and normal levels of hormone secretion in pituitary endocrine cells. 相似文献

Cell swelling induces peptide exocytosis using unique signaling pathway. Hyposmotic-induced secretion in normal cells is not mediated by specific receptors, is independent from extra and intracellular Ca(2+), sodium and potassium channels activity, prostaglandins, leukotriens, does not involve cytoskeleton, cAMP generation, phospholipase A(2), G proteins, protein kinase C. It is promoted by swelling of the secretory vesicles. Resistance to endogenous inhibitors is frequent attribute of this type of secretion. Swelling-induced secretion involves also secretory vesicles not involved in conventional stimulation. Hyposmosis-induced insulin secretion is more sensitive to high cellular cholesterol than conventional one suggesting substantial difference between mechanisms. Participation of sequential exocytosis as dominating mechanism in swelling-induced exocytosis is hypothesized. Signaling and response in tumor cells often differs from native cells and varies markedly between cell lines. Pathogenetic implications: cell swelling could be involved in alcohol induced hypoglycemia in diabetic patients and release of peptides from pituitary and neurons. Swelling-induced products could be mediators of ischemic preconditioning involved also in protection of diabetic heart. Swelling-induced exocytosis is an ancient mechanism generally present in cells; in cells engaged in water and salt regulation is covered by specific response mediated by specific signaling. Disturbance of specific response leads to swelling-induced - inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone - SIADH. 相似文献

Vasopressin-induced water reabsorption coincides with phosphorylation of aquaporin-2 (AQP2) at S256 (pS256), dephosphorylation at S261, and its translocation to the apical membrane, whereas treatment with the phorbol ester 12-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induces AQP2 ubiquitination at K270, its internalization, and lysosomal degradation. In this study we investigated the relationship between S256 and S261 phosphorylation in AQP2 and its ubiquitination and trafficking in MDCK cells. Forskolin stimulation associated with increased pS256 and decreased pS261 AQP2, indicating that MDCK cells are a good model. After forskolin stimulation, TPA-induced ubiquitination of AQP2 preceded phosphorylation of AQP2 at S261, which in the first instance occurred predominantly on ubiquitinated AQP2. Forskolin-induced changes in pS261 were also observed for AQP2-S256A and AQP2-S256D, which constitutively localize in vesicles and the apical membrane, respectively. Although pS261 varies with forskolin as with wild-type AQP2, AQP2-S256A is not increased in its ubiquitination. Our data reveal that pS261 occurred independently of AQP2 localization and suggest that pS261 follows ubiquitination and endocytosis and may stabilize AQP2 ubiquitination and intracellular localization. The absence of increased ubiquitination of AQP2-S256A indicates that its intracellular location is due to the lack of pS256. Furthermore, AQP2-S261A and AQP2-S261D localized to vesicles, which was due to their increased ubiquitination, because changing K270 into Arg in both mutants resulted in their localization in the apical membrane. Although still increased in its ubiquitination, AQP2-S256D-S261D localized in the apical membrane. AQP2-S256D-K270R-Ub, however, localized to intracellular vesicles. Although our localization of AQP2-S261A/D is different from that of others, these data indicate that constitutive S256 phosphorylation counterbalances S261D-induced ubiquitination and internalization or changes its structure to allow distribution to the apical membrane. The vesicular localization of AQP2-S256D-K270R-Ub, however, indicates that the dominant apical sorting of S256D can again be overruled by constitutive ubiquitination. These data indicate that the membrane localization of AQP2 is determined by the balance of the extents of phosphorylation and ubiquitination. 相似文献

Cell volume regulation is particularly important for kidney collecting duct cells. These cells are the site of water reabsorption regulated by vasopressin and aquaporin-2 (AQP2) trafficking to the apical membrane, and subject to changes in osmolality. Here, we examined the role of AQP2 in regulatory volume decrease (RVD), which is a cellular defensive process against hypotonic stress. Stable expression of AQP2 increases RVD in MDCK cells and its phosphorylation levels decrease during the RVD process. We then examined the involvement of AQP2 phosphorylation at serine 256 and serine 261 in RVD using cells stably expressing the phosphorylation mutants. Both S256A- and S256D-AQP2 decrease RVD compared to wild type (WT)-AQP2 although only S256A mutation decreases the initial osmotic swelling, indicating that AQP2-enhanced RVD is independent of osmotic swelling induced by the water permeability of AQP2. S261A and S261D mutations do not induce changes compared with WT-AQP2. These findings indicate that switching between phosphorylation and dephosphorylation at S256 is important for RVD. We previously reported that AQP2 interacts with tropomyosin 5b (TM5b), which regulates actin stability. AQP2 interactions with TM5b are rapidly increased by hypotonicity and then decreased, which are consistent with AQP2 phosphorylation levels. Knockdown and overexpression of TM5b show its essential role in WT-AQP2-enhanced RVD. RVD in S256A- and S256D-AQP2-expressing cells is not changed by TM5b knockdown or overexpression. The present study shows that AQP2 regulates RVD via TM5b and switching between phosphorylation and dephosphorylation at S256 in AQP2 is critical for this process. 相似文献

We have investigated the sorting and packaging of secretory proteins into secretory granules by an immunological approach. An mAb against secretogranin I (chromogranin B), a secretory protein costored with various peptide hormones and neuropeptides in secretory granules of many endocrine cells and neurons, was expressed by microinjection of its mRNA into the secretogranin I-producing cell line PC12. An mAb against the G protein of vesicular stomatitis virus--i.e., against an antigen not present in PC12 cells--was expressed as a control. The intracellular localization and the secretion of the antibodies was studied by double-labeling immunofluorescence using the conventional and the confocal microscope, as well as by pulse-chase experiments. The secretogranin I antibody, like the control antibody, was transported along the secretory pathway to the Golgi complex. However, in contrast to the control antibody, which was secreted via the constitutive pathway, the secretogranin I antibody formed an immunocomplex with secretogranin I, was packaged into secretory granules, and was released by regulated exocytosis. Our results show that a constitutive secretory protein, unaltered by genetic engineering, can be diverted to the regulated pathway of secretion by its protein-protein interaction with a regulated secretory protein. The data also provide the basis for immunologically studying the role of luminally exposed protein domains in the biogenesis and function of regulated secretory vesicles. 相似文献

Although CAPS1 was originally identified as a soluble factor that reconstitutes Ca(2+)-dependent secretion from permeabilized neuroendocrine cells, its exact function in intact mammalian cells remains controversial. Here we investigate the role for CAPS1 by generating stable cell lines in which CAPS1 is strongly down-regulated. In these cells, Ca(2+)-dependent secretion was strongly reduced not only of catecholamine but also of a transfected neuropeptide. These secretion defects were rescued by infusion of CAPS1-containing brain cytosol or by transfection-mediated expression of CAPS1. Whole cell patch clamp recording revealed significant reductions in slow burst and sustained release components of exocytosis in the knockdown cells. Unexpectedly, they also accumulated higher amounts of endogenous and exogenous transmitters, which were attributable to reductions in constitutive secretion. Electron microscopy did not reveal abnormalities in the number or docking of dense core vesicles. Our results indicate that CAPS1 plays critical roles not only in Ca(2+)-dependent, regulated exocytosis but also in constitutive exocytosis downstream of vesicle docking. However, they do not support the role for CAPS1 in loading transmitters into dense core vesicles. 相似文献

Many neural and endocrine cells possess two pathways of secretion: a regulated pathway and a constitutive pathway. Peptide hormones are stored in granules which undergo regulated release whereas other surface-bound proteins are externalized constitutively via a distinct set of vesicles. An important issue is whether proper function of these pathways requires continuous protein synthesis. Wieland et al. (Wieland, F.T., Gleason, M.L., Serafini, T.A., and Rothman, J.E. (1987) Cell 50, 289-300) have shown that a tripeptide containing the sequence Asn-Tyr-Thr can be glycosylated in intracellular compartments and secreted efficiently from Chinese hamster ovary and HepG2 cells, presumably via the constitutive secretory pathway. Secretion is not affected by cycloheximide, suggesting that operation of this pathway does not require components supplied by new protein synthesis. In this report we determined the effects of protein synthesis inhibitor on membrane traffic to the regulated secretory pathway in the mouse pituitary AtT-20 cells. We examined transport of glycosaminoglycan chains since previous studies have shown that these chains enter the regulated secretory pathways and are packaged along with the hormone adrenocorticotropin (ACTH). We found that cycloheximide treatment severely impairs the cell's ability to store and secrete glycosaminoglycan chains by the regulated secretory pathway. In marked contrast, constitutive secretion of glycosaminoglycan chains remains unhindered in the absence of protein synthesis. The differential requirements for protein synthesis indicate differences in the mechanisms for sorting and/or transport of molecules through the constitutive and the regulated secretory pathways. We discuss the possible mechanisms by which protein synthesis may influence trafficking of glycosaminoglycan chains to the regulated secretory pathway. 相似文献

The trafficking of alpha 1-antitrypsin,a post-Golgi secretory pathway marker,in INS-1 pancreatic beta cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A sulfated alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT), thought to be a default secretory pathway marker, is not stored in secretory granules when expressed in neuroendocrine PC12 cells. In search of a constitutive secretory pathway marker for pancreatic beta cells, we produced INS-1 cells stably expressing wild-type AAT. Because newly synthesized AAT arrives very rapidly in the Golgi complex, kinetics alone cannot resolve AAT release via distinct secretory pathways, although most AAT is secreted within a few hours and virtually none is stored in mature granules. Nevertheless, from pulse-chase analyses, a major fraction of newly synthesized AAT transiently exhibits secretogogue-stimulated exocytosis and localizes within immature secretory granules (ISGs). This trafficking occurs without detectable AAT polymerization or binding to lipid rafts. Remarkably, in a manner not requiring its glycans, all of the newly synthesized AAT is then removed from granules during their maturation, leading mostly to constitutive-like AAT secretion, whereas a smaller fraction (approximately 10%) goes on to lysosomes. Secretogogue-stimulated ISG exocytosis reroutes newly synthesized AAT directly into the medium and prevents its arrival in lysosomes. These data are most consistent with the idea that soluble AAT abundantly enters ISGs and then is efficiently relocated to the endosomal system, from which many molecules undergo constitutive-like secretion while a smaller fraction advances to lysosomes. 相似文献

The patterns of secretion utilized by embryonic cells during early development in the starfish Pisaster ochraceus were studied by transmission electron microscopy and morphometry. In addition to exocytosis of cortical granules, exocytosis and micro-apocrine secretion-like blebbing were performed by secretory vacuoles and secretory vesicles. In 2-cell and 4-cell embryos, as well the 22-hour blastula, secretory vacuole exocytosis (VAE) was the most frequent of the secretory types. In the early to middle gastrula, VAE declined and secretory vacuole blebbing (VAB) appeared. Both VAE and VAB almost disappeared in 5-day gastrulae, and secretory vesicle exocytosis (VEE) as well as the secretory vesicle blebbing (VEB) became dominant. VEB was the only mechanism of secretion in bipinnaria. With regard to yolk granules, Y1, Y2, and Y3 granules underwent lysosome-induced utilization (LIU). In addition, Y3 yolk underwent lysosome-induced sparseness (LIS), followed by Y3-Y5B, the pathway that assumes the formation of Y4 and Y5 intermediate yolk patterns and is completed by the blebbing of Y5 granules in the early to middle gastrulae and 5-day gastrulae. These findings demonstrated the high complexity of the embryonic secretion machinery in sea stars. 相似文献

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulates biphasic prolactin (PRL) secretion from rat pituitary GH3 cells. The pretreatment of cells with EGTA (100 microM) plus arachidonic acid (15 microM), a condition which decreased TRH-responsive intracellular Ca2+ pools, eliminated the activity of TRH on burst PRL secretion (2 min) but did not alter that on sustained PRL secretion (30 min). However, the treatment of cells with EGTA, arachidonic acid and H-7 (300 microM), a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), almost completely suppressed the activity of TRH for sustained PRL secretion. In cells down-modulated for PKC, TRH abolished this Ca2(+)-independent sustained PRL secretion. These results suggest that TRH acts through a separate, Ca2(+)-independent secretory mechanism, besides by modulating the Ca2(+)-dependent mechanism and that PKC is involved in this Ca2(+)-independent secretory pathway. 相似文献

Adaptation of eukaryotic cells to changing environmental conditions entails rapid regulation of protein targeting and transport to specific organelles. Such adaptation is well exemplified in mammalian cells exposed to nitrogen starvation that are triggered to form and transport autophagosomes to lysosomes, thus constituting an inducible intracellular trafficking pathway. Here we investigated the relationship between the general secretory machinery and the autophagic pathway in Chinese hamster ovary cells grown in the absence of amino acid. Utilizing VSVG-YFP (vesicular stomatitis virus G protein fused to yellow fluorescent protein) and norepinephrine as markers for constitutive and regulated exocytosis, respectively, we found that secretion is attenuated in cells grown in media lacking amino acid. Such decrease in exocytosis stems from partial inhibition of N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor ATPase activity, which in turn causes an accumulation of SNARE complexes at both the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane of the starved cells. These findings expose a novel cellular strategy to attenuate secretion of proteins under conditions of limited amino acid supply. 相似文献

Cell swelling produced by a variety of techniques is a potent stimulus intensity-related inducer of an immediate secretory burst of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and prolaction (PRL) secretion from anterior pituitary cells. A 2-min "square wave" exposure to either hyposmolarity or isotonic urea induced stimulus intensity-correlated TSH and PRL secretory bursts peaking within 3 min, but the PRL zenith occurred 1 min later than that of TSH. With continuous exposure to these stimuli, TSH secretion rapidly decreased and remained only slightly above the unstimulated rate after 5 min. PRL secretion fell to and remained below the unstimulated level after 10 min. After stopping the stimulus, another secretory burst ("off" response) occurred with PRL, but not with TSH. A progressive "ramp" increase in stimulus intensity over 18 min induced a corresponding gradual increase in TSH secretion; there was a progressive depression, rather than increase, in PRL secretion during the stimulus ramp, with an off response secretory burst when the stimulus was discontinued. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ or addition of verapamil to the medium did not alter the dynamics of hyposmolarity-induced TSH secretion, but markedly altered those of PRL secretion; there was no off response PRL secretion and a hyposmolar ramp induced a corresponding gradual increase in PRL secretion, with a return to baseline after removing the stimulus. The dramatic qualitative differences in the response of the thyrotroph and lactotroph may reflect differences between the cell types in the size of secretory vesicles, membrane potential, the mechanism of exocytosis, and/or the role of Ca2+ influx across the plasmalemma. 相似文献
