High performance liquid chromatography analysis of supernatants from acid-quenched [3H]inositol-labeled parotid acinar cells revealed an inositol pentakisphosphate and three inositol tetrakisphosphates. Two of the latter were identified as the 1,3,4,5 and 1,3,4,6 isomers, whereas the third was probably a mixture of unknown proportions of the 3,4,5,6/1,4,5,6 enantiomeric pair. Methacholine (100 microM) produced a 40-50-fold increase in the levels of inositol trisphosphate (mainly the 1,3,4 isomer) and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, but inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate only increased 5-fold. Levels of inositol 3,4,5,6/1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate and inositol pentakisphosphate were unaffected by agonist stimulation. Thus, in parotid cells, an agonist-induced increase in both inositol trisphosphate and inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate formation does not result in an increase in the rate of formation of inositol pentakisphosphate. Following the addition of 100 microM atropine to methacholine-stimulated parotid cells, the levels of [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate fell rapidly, returning to basal levels within 5 min. Inositol trisphosphate was metabolized more slowly and was still elevated 20-fold above basal 5 min after the addition of atropine. Inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate was metabolized much more slowly (t1/2 approximately 15 min). Inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate metabolism was examined in parotid homogenates as well as in 100,000 x g cytosolic and particulate fractions. Inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate was both dephosphorylated and phosphorylated. Two inositol tetrakisphosphate products were formed, namely the 1,3,4,6 and 1,3,4,5 isomers. Over 90% of both kinase and phosphatase activities were found in the cytosolic fractions. The ratio of activities of kinase to phosphatase decreased as the levels of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate substrate were increased from 1 nM to 10 microM. These data led to the conclusion that the kinetic parameters of the inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate kinases and phosphatases are such that in stimulated cells, dephosphorylation of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate is greatly favored. Inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate kinase activity was potently inhibited by inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (IC50 = 0.1-0.2 microM), which leads us to propose that inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate is an endogenous inhibitor of the kinase. 相似文献

UC11 cells, derived from a human astrocytoma, have a high density of functional substance P receptors. Radioligand binding studies were conducted with the highly selective neurokinin-1 receptor ligand [3H][Sar9,Met(O2)11]-substance P. Kinetic binding experiments conducted at 4 degrees C yielded an association rate constant k1 of 1.86 x 10(7) M-1 min-1, a dissociation rate constant k-1 of 0.00478 min-1, and a calculated kinetic KD of 257 pM. Saturation binding experiments yielded average values of KD = 447 +/- 103 pM, Bmax = 862 +/- 93 fmol/mg of protein. This Bmax corresponds to more than 150,000 binding sites/cell. Competition binding experiments with unlabeled [Sar9,Met(O2)11]-substance P yielded average values of KD = 491 +/- 48 pM and Bmax = 912 +/- 67 fmol/mg of protein. In [3H]inositol-labeled cells, substance P induced a robust inositol phosphate formation. Inositol trisphosphate levels increased as much as 20-fold within approximately 15 s of addition of substance P. This inositol trisphosphate formation was transient and had returned to baseline within the first 60-120 s. Inositol monophosphate formation, however, was linear for at least 2 h. Structure activity data on binding and inositol monophosphate formation confirmed the presence of a neurokinin-1 receptor subtype in these cells. Thus, the UC11 cell should be a useful model cell for delineating the physiological role of substance P receptors in astrocytes. 相似文献

Bradykinin-stimulated changes in inositol phosphate mass in renal papillary collecting tubule cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of bradykinin on changes in the chemical levels of myo-inositol polyphosphates in renal papillary collecting tubules was investigated. Myo-inositol phosphate mass was determined by means of an enzymatic, fluorometric assay. Bradykinin induced increases in myo-inositol mono-, bis-, and trisphosphate which were both time and concentration dependent. Furthermore, the magnitude of the chemical levels of myo-inositol monophosphate formed were unlikely to be accounted for solely by the formation and degradation of myo-inositol trisphosphate. These observations are consistent with the concomitant hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate. This study also confirms, in freshly isolated renal tubules, observations regarding bradykinin-induced phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate hydrolysis made previously in radiolabeled cultures. 相似文献

Bradykinin-induced changes in myo-inositol 1,2-(cyclic)phosphate in rabbit papillary collecting tubule cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Rabbit renal papillary collecting tubule cells were harvested and grown in primary cultures. When labeled with myo-[2-3H]inositol and extracted under neutral conditions, a metabolite undetected under acidic extraction was observed on resolution by anion-exchange chromatography and which eluted under similar conditions with authentic DL-myo-inositol 1,2-(cyclic)phosphate; the mass spectrum of its pentakis(trimethylsilyl) derivative contains an identical ratio of selected ion fragments to the authentic standard. Bradykinin, demonstrated previously to increase labeling of free inositol polyphosphates, increases labeling of inositol 1,2 cyclic phosphate but over a time course subsequent to the formation of inositol trisphosphate. These observations are consistent with the model that bradykinin induces hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate which precedes hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol in renal papillary collecting tubule cells. 相似文献

Mitogenic stimulation of quiescent human fibroblasts (HSWP) with a growth factor mixture (consisting of epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin, bradykinin, and vasopressin) rapidly induces an increase in Na influx via a Ca-mediated activation of an amiloride-sensitive Na/H exchanger. Inositol phosphates (specifically inositol-1',4',5'-phosphate) have been implicated in mediating the mobilization of intracellular Ca stores in other cell types and we have now completed a detailed analysis of the mitogen-induced release of inositol phosphates in HSWP cells. Stimulation of inositol trisphosphate release is rapid (within 5 s) and reaches a maximum level (416-485% basal) within 10-15 s after the addition of growth factor mixture. Inositol bisphosphate and inositol monophosphate reach maximum levels by 30 s (1257% basal) and 60 s (291% basal), respectively. Levels of all three compounds then decay toward basal levels but remain elevated (150-350% of basal levels) after 10 min of incubation with mitogens. The effects of different combinations of these growth factors and of the bee venom peptide, melittin, have also been determined. We have also found that 8-(N,N-diethylamino)octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, which prevents the mitogen-induced rise in intracellular calcium activity and activation of Na influx, does not alter the mitogen-stimulated accumulation of inositol trisphosphate. In addition, the calcium ionophore A23187, which increases cytosolic Ca activity and induces a Na influx, does not stimulate the release of inositol trisphosphate. Assays performed in the presence of lithium, which inhibits inositol phosphate monophosphatase, promotes the prolonged and enhanced accumulation of inositol monophosphate. Treatment with the phospholipase inhibitor mepacrine or pretreatment with dexamethasone reduces the amount of inositol phosphates released upon mitogenic stimulation. Hence mitogenic stimulation of HSWP cells leads to the rapid stimulation of inositol phosphate release via a calcium-independent mechanism and suggests inositol trisphosphate as a candidate to mediate the release of intracellular calcium stores which is involved in the processes responsible for the activation of the Na/H exchanger. 相似文献

Recent work has demonstrated the enhancement of hormone-stimulated inositol trisphosphate formation in renal epithelial cells under conditions of glucosylceramide depletion. The role of glucosylceramide metabolism was explored further by exposing Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells to the beta-glucosidase inhibitor conduritol B epoxide, which produced time-dependent and concentration-dependent increases in glucosylceramide levels and decreased bradykinin-stimulated inositol trisphosphate formation from isolated MDCK cell membranes. These data provide further support for an association between glucosylceramide levels and hormone-stimulated inositol trisphosphate formation. 相似文献

The results of studies to evaluate the hypothesis that the 21 kDa GTP-binding protein derived from the ras oncogene is involved in regulation and coupling of hormone receptors to phospholipase activity have thus far been inconsistent. We therefore examined the effect of H-ras transformation on basal, tumor-promoting phorbol ester (TPA)-stimulated, and bradykinin-mediated phospholipid hydrolysis in Madin Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK) by comparing H-ras-transformed MDCK cells (MDCK-RAS) to two non-transformed strains of MDCK cells (MDCK-D1 and MDCK-ATCC). In unstimulated MDCK-RAS, diacylglycerol (DAG), inositol phosphate accumulation, and choline phosphate release were increased while arachidonic acid and arachidonic acid metabolite (AA) release was not increased, suggesting that ras transformation increased phospholipase C activity. Protein kinase C (PK-C) activity was decreased, and specific binding of [3H]phorbol ester was reduced in MDCK-RAS relative to the non-transformed MDCK cells suggesting that elevated DAG may activate and thereby down-regulate PK-C. Consistent with this finding in MDCK-RAS, TPA-stimulated AA release and subsequent prostaglandin E2 production were decreased, while TPA-stimulated choline phosphate release was increased. Bradykinin receptor-stimulated phospholipid hydrolysis in MDCK-RAS was similar to that of non-transformed cells, suggesting that the ras-derived protein does not directly couple bradykinin receptors to phospholipases in MDCK cells. However, the ability of TPA-treatment to inhibit bradykinin-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis and enhance bradykinin-stimulated AA release was attenuated in MDCK-RAS. Additionally, in MDCK-RAS the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin E2 was substantially reduced. We conclude that ras transformation of MDCK cells increases DAG levels, thereby activating and, in turn, down-regulating PK-C and certain responses to TPA. Since activation of PK-C may result in a variety of effects on signal transduction pathways, we propose that increased DAG and altered PK-C levels associated with ras transformation may account for the inconsistent effects previously observed in studies evaluating the effect of ras transformation on phospholipases and other signal transduction systems. 相似文献

Autocrine motility factor stimulates a three-fold increase in inositol trisphosphate in human melanoma cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The biochemical pathways through which tumor cell locomotion is mediated are poorly understood. Autocrine motility factor (AMF), which is produced by and stimulates motility in A2058 human melanoma cells, was used to characterize phosphoinositide (PtdIns) metabolism activated in association with tumor cell motility. AMF stimulated up to a 400% increase in de novo incorporation of 3H-myo-inositol into cellular lipids beginning 40 minutes after exposure. In cells prelabeled with 3H-myo-inositol, AMF stimulated a 200% increase in total inositol phosphates (inositol monophosphate, InsP1; inositol bisphosphate, InsP2; inositol trisphosphate, InsP3) after 90 minutes of exposure, with a 300% maximal increase in InsP3 at 120 minutes. InsP1 and InsP2 were maximally increased 130% of control values. Treatment with AMF stimulated a parallel dose-dependent increase in both motility and PtdIns levels. We have shown previously that the A2058 motile response to AMF is inhibited markedly by cell pretreatment with pertussis toxin (PT). Inositol phosphate production was inhibited by a 2-hour pretreatment of cells with PT (0.5 microgram/ml). PT treatment of A2058 membranes was associated with ADP-ribosylation of a 40-kDa protein consistent with the presence of an alpha subunit of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein). These data indicate that AMF elicits increases in cell motility and phosphoinositide metabolism via a PT-sensitive G protein signal transduction pathway. 相似文献

Chromaffin cells of bovine adrenal medulla release catecholamines in response to activation of nicotinic ACh receptors which open voltage-sensitive calcium channels. Catecholamine secretion by exocytosis requires an increase in cytosolic free calcium. The cells also possess muscarinic ACh receptors but muscarinic agents do not provoke catecholamine release. Quin-2 studies show that they do not increase cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration, but unlike the nicotinic agents, they cause phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Muscarinic stimulation leads to rapid loss of labelled phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. At the same time there is release of inositol trisphosphate, inositol bisphosphate and inositol phosphate. In a number of other cells inositol trisphosphate may act as a second messenger releasing Ca2+ from storage sites in the endoplasmic reticulum but this is not its function in bovine chromaffin cells. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated fucosyltransferase (FT) activity on mouse germ cell surfaces at different stages of spermatogenesis. To complement these findings, here we report FT activity on the Sertoli cell (SC) surface. SC isolated and cultured from 20-day-old rat testes displayed FT activity with a Vmax of 12.5 pmoles/mg protein/min and a Km of 22 μM, while purified Sertoli cell plasma membranes (SCPM) showed FT activity with a Vmax of 10 pmoles/mg protein/min and a Km of 18.2 μM for GDP-[14C]-L-fucose. Fucosyltransferase activities were 16.7 and 2.6 pmoles/mg protein/min in SC and SCPM, respectively; 16% of FT activity is, therefore, on the cell surface. To test whether the expression of FT activity in SC was regulated by hormones and growth factors, SC were cultured in serum-free medium supplemented with insulin, transferrin, sodium selenite, and epidermal growth factor (medium 4F) or in 4F plus follicle-stimulating hormone, testosterone, hydrocortisone, and vitamin E (medium 8F). We found that FT activity in SC is not modulated by these hormones or growth factors (4F or 8F). For comparison with FT, galactosyltransferase (GalTase) activities in SC and SCPM were also determined. SC displayed GalTase activity with a Vmax of 50 pmoles/mg protein/min and a Km of 38.5 μM, while SCPM showed GalTase activity with a Vmax of 25 pmoles/mg protein/min and a Km of 20.8 μM for UDP-[3H]-galactose. Galactosyltransferase activities were 29.2 and 9.6 pmoles/mg protein/min in SC and SCPM, respectively. Therefore, ~33% of the total cell GalTase activity was detected on the surface membranes of rat Sertoli cells. These results suggest that cell surface glycosyltransferases may be involved in Sertoli cell function during mammalian spermatogenesis. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of glucose on cytosolic free calcium concentration in the insulin-secreting cell line HIT-T15. Addition of glucose (10 mM) caused a 20-75% increase in cytosolic [Ca2+] within 5 minutes compared to controls in the absence of glucose. A maximal increase in cytosolic [Ca2+] was obtained with 5 mM glucose. The magnitude of the response was markedly dependent upon the concentration of extracellular Ca2+, and the rise in cytosolic [Ca2+] was inhibited by verapamil. Cytosolic [Ca2+] was greatly increased by depolarization of the cells with KCl (50 mM), whereas carbamylcholine had no apparent effect. Glucose and KCl were also effective in stimulating insulin release from HIT cells, although carbamylcholine was again ineffective. The secretory response to glucose was also found to be directly related to the concentration of extracellular [Ca2+]. Glucose and KCl, but not carbamylcholine, were found to slightly enhance the production of [3H]-inositol trisphosphate in HIT cells pre-labelled with myo-[3H]-inositol, indicating a modest stimulation of inositol lipid hydrolysis. 相似文献

G Proteins Coupled to Phospholipase C: Molecular Targets of Long-Term Ethanol Exposure 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Long-term ethanol exposure is known to inhibit bradykinin-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in cultures of neuroblastoma x glioma 108-15 cells. In the present study, [3H]bradykinin binding, GTP-binding protein function, and phospholipase C activity were assayed in cells grown for 4 days in 100 mM ethanol with the aim of elucidating the molecular target of ethanol on signal transduction coupled to inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol formation. Ethanol exposure reduced guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) [GTP(S)]- and, to a lesser extent, NaF/AlCl3-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, whereas it had no effect on the enzymatic activity of a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C. [3H]Bradykinin binding in the absence of GTP(S) was not influenced by ethanol exposure. However, the reduction in [3H]bradykinin binding seen in control cells after addition of GTP analogue was inhibited in cells grown in ethanol-containing medium. The results indicate that long-term ethanol exposure exerts its effects on receptor-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis primarily at the level of the GTP-binding protein. 相似文献

Total phosphodiesterase activity was measured in Sertoli cell culture after exposure to isobutyl-methyl-xanthine, dibutyryl cyclic AMP and FSH. After 24 hr of incubation both FSH and dibutyryl cAMP caused a significant increase in total phosphodiesterase activity of Sertoli cell homogenates (control: 66 ± 16 pmoles/min/mg protein; FSH: 291 ± 25 pmoles/min/mg protein; dibutyryl cAMP: 630 ± 70 pmoles/min/mg protein). FSH stimulation was potentiated by isobutyl-methyl-xanthine. Both in the presence and absence of xanthine, the induction of phosphodiesterase was dependent on the FSH concentration, with maximal stimulation achieved with 0.5–1.0 μg FSH/ml. The induction of phosphodiesterase activity by hormone was abolished by cycloheximide treatment. The data suggest that FSH regulates phosphodiesterase activity via changes of cAMP levels in Sertoli cell in culture. 相似文献

The ability of isoproterenol, glucagon, PGE1 and cholera toxin to stimulate the synthesis of cAMP and protein kinase activity in line of liver cells (BRL) and a line of rat hepatoma cells (H35) has been determined. The concentration of cAMP in BRL cells (approximately 10 pmoles/mg protein) is in the range reported for other cultured cell lines but H35 cells contain extraordinarily low amounts of this cyclic nucleotide (approximately 0.05 pmoles/mg protein). Isoproterenol and PGE1 caused an increase in cAMP content, and protein kinase activation in BRL cells, although glucagon was ineffective. H35 cells, in contrast, were completely insensitive to all hormonal agonists. Despite this fact, cholera toxin was able to produce a marked increase in cAMP content, adenylate cyclase activity and protein kinase activation in H35 cells. binding studies with [125 I]-iodohydroxybenzylpindolol, a specific beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist, revealed that each H35 cell possesses fewer than 10 beta-adrenergic receptors whereas BRL cells contain 2-5,000 receptors per cell. The low level of cAMP in H35 cells appears to result from a combination of totally unstimulated adenylate cyclase and apparently elevated phosphodiesterase activities. 相似文献

Inositol trisphosphate is known to mobilize calcium from internal stores in plant cells. However, with the exception of the vacuole, the largest plant cell compartment, organelles responsive to inositol trisphosphate have not been extensively identified. In this way, we have separated membrane vesicles from the same carrot microsomal fraction and identified them, both by marker enzyme activities and electron microscopy. These correspond to pure plasma membrane, pure tonoplast and mixed mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi membrane fractions. All the fractions accumulated calcium in a ATP-dependent manner and were tightly sealed. Inositol trisphosphate-dependent calcium releases were accurately measured only in fractions corresponding functionally and structurally to tonoplast, the vacuolar membrane. The process was dose-dependent and fairly specific for inositol trisphosphate. While highly significant, approximately 40% of the mobile calcium only may be released from tonoplast vesicles by inositol trisphosphate which remained basically intact during the release experiments. From these results it is concluded that the vacuole is the richest store of calcium directly mobilizable by inositol trisphosphate in plant cells, but inositol trisphosphate is not able to release the overall mobile vacuolar calcium. 相似文献

Two heart muscarinic responses are compared, the reduction of cyclic AMP concentration and the hydrolysis of phosphoinositides. It is suggested that the former is more important physiologically, since the latter is a slow response requiring much higher agonist concentrations. Inositol trisphosphate released from phosphoinositides is unlikely to produce a positive inotropic effect by releasing calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. However, long term muscarinic effects may involve activation of protein kinase C by diacylglycerol released from phosphoinositides. 相似文献

G protein coupling of antigen receptor-stimulated polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in B cells 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Cross-linking of the IgM and IgD Ag-R on mature B lymphocytes provokes the rapid hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. We show here that in permeabilized, [3H]inositol-labeled mouse B cells the nonhydrolyzable GTP analogue GTP gamma S induces release of inositol phosphates, including inositol trisphosphate. The response is markedly augmented by the addition of polyclonal anti-Ig or anti-mu or anti-delta mAb. Inositol phosphate release provoked in intact B cells by any of the anti-receptor antibodies was not inhibited by pertussis toxin and only partially inhibited by cholera toxin. The results therefore indicate that both IgM- and IgD-R on B cells are coupled to the polyphosphoinositide-specific phosphodiesterase by one or more G proteins, which have yet to be identified. 相似文献

MDCK Cells seeded on extracellular matrix- (ECM) coated dishes and exposed to medium supplemented with high-density lipoproteins (HDLs, 750 micrograms protein/ml) and transferrin (10 micrograms/ml) have a proliferative rate, final cell density, and morphological appearance similar to those of cells grown in serum-supplemented medium. The mitogenic stimulus provided by HDLs is not limited by the initial cell density at which cultures are seeded, nor is it limited in time, since cells grown in medium supplemented with transferrin and HDLs grew to at least 50 generations. The presence of HDLs in the medium is required in order for cells to survive, since cells actively proliferating in the presence of medium supplemented with HDLs and transferrin begin to die within 2 days after being transferred to medium supplemented only with transferrin. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is mitogenic for MDCK cells when present at low concentrations (from 2.5 to 100 micrograms protein/ml). Above 100 micrograms protein/ml, LDL is cytotoxic and therefore cannot support cell proliferation at an optimal rate. The mitogenic effect of HDLs is also observed when cells are maintained on fibronectin-coated dishes. However, the proliferative rate of the cells is suboptimal and cultures cannot be passaged on this substrate indefinitely, as they can be on ECM-coated dishes. A close association between the ability of HDLs to support cell proliferation and their ability to induce the activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase is observed. HMG CoA reductase activity is 18 times higher (70 pmoles/min/10(6) cells) in proliferating cells than in confluent, nondividing cells (4 pmoles/min/10(6) cells). The HMG Coa reductase activity of sparse cells is more sensitive to induction by HDLs (eight-fold higher than control cells) than is the enzyme activity of confluent cells (two-fold higher than control levels). The dose-response relationship between the abilities of HDLs to support proliferation and to induce HMG CoA reductase activity are similar. The time course of the stimulation of proliferation and the increase in enzyme activity of sparse, quiescent cells after exposure to HDLs are parallel. The HMG CoA reductase activity of sparse MDCK cells is induced six-fold by exposure to compactin, a competitive inhibitor of HMG CoA reductase. This induction of HMG CoA reductase is prevented by mevalonic acid, not affected by LDL, and synergistically enhanced by simultaneous exposure to HDLs. HDLs effect a rescue from the cytotoxic effect of compactin, whereas LDL does not.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Inositol trisphosphate (IP3), a product of the phosphoinositide cycle, mobilizes intracellular Ca2+ in many cell types. New evidence suggests that inositol tetrakisphosphate (IP4), an IP3 derivative, may act as another second messenger to further alter calcium homeostasis. However, the function and mechanism of action of IP4 are presently unresolved. We now report evidence of muscarinic receptor-mediated accumulation of IP4 in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells, a classic neurosecretory system in which calcium movements have been well studied. Muscarine (0.4 mM) stimulated an increase in [3H]IP4 and [3H]IP3 accumulation in chromaffin cells and this effect was completely blocked by atropine (0.5 mM). [3H]IP4 accumulation was detectable within 15 sec, increased to a maximum by 30 sec and thereafter declined. 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, an inhibitor of IP3 and IP4 hydrolysis, enhanced accumulation of these inositol polyphosphates. The results provide the first evidence of a rapid inositol tetrakisphosphate response in adrenal chromaffin cells, which should facilitate the future resolution of the relationship between IP4 and calcium homeostasis. 相似文献

Monosodium urate crystals are believed to trigger acute inflammation via the direct stimulation of leukocytes. Unopsonized urate crystals activate neutrophil (PMN) membrane G proteins in a pertussis toxin (PT)-sensitive manner, but induce PT-insensitive cytosolic [Ca2+]i elevation. Thus, we have further defined the mechanism of PMN responsiveness to urate crystals in this study. Though urate crystals can increase membrane permeability by lytic effects, we observed elevation of PMN cytosolic [Ca2+]i in the absence of extracellular [Ca2+]i. In addition, the early, crystal-induced cytosolic [Ca2+]i transient was buffered in cells loaded with a [Ca2+]i-chelator. This suggested mobilization of internal [Ca2+]i stores, which was supported by demonstrating rapid phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis, and the formation of inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate (as well as phosphatidic acid) in a PT-insensitive manner. Importantly, PMN activation by urate crystals was discriminatory, as evidenced by the absence of phosphatidylinositol trisphosphate formation, a PT-sensitive event triggered by chemotactic factors. Urate crystal-induced PIP2 hydrolysis was not a nonspecific consequence of the early cytosolic [Ca2+]i transient itself, and it did not require phagocytosis. However, crystal-induced O2- release was markedly inhibited by buffering of the early cytosolic [Ca2+]i transient under conditions where crystal phagocytosis and PMA-induced O2- release were unaffected. We conclude that urate crystals activate PT-insensitive PIP2 hydrolysis, resulting in IP3 generation, and early urate crystal-induced mobilization of cytosolic [Ca2+]i. This pathway appears to modulate crystal-induced O2- release. 相似文献
