The NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor is physically associated with the postsynaptic density protein PSD-95 at glutamatergic synapses. The channel activity of NMDA receptors is regulated by different signaling molecules, including protein tyrosine kinases. Because previous results have suggested a role for protein kinase C (PKC) in insulin potentiation of NMDA currents in oocytes, the effects of coexpression of PSD-95 on insulin and PKC potentiation of NMDA currents from these receptors were compared. Another primary objective was to determine if PSD-95 could enable Src to potentiate currents from NR2A/NR1 and NR2B/NR1 receptors expressed in XENOPUS: oocytes. The results show opposite effects of PSD-95 coexpression on Src and insulin modulation of NR2A/NR1 receptor currents. Src potentiation of mouse NR2A/NR1 currents required PSD-95 coexpression. In contrast, PSD-95 coexpression eliminated insulin-mediated potentiation of NR2A/NR1 receptor currents. PSD-95 coexpression also eliminated PKC potentiation of NR2A/NR1 receptor currents. PSD-95 may therefore play a key role in controlling kinase modulation of NR2A/NR1 receptor currents at glutamatergic synapses. 相似文献

N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDA) are glutamate-activated ligand-gated ion channels that participate in diverse forms of synaptic plasticity as well as glutamate-dependent excitotoxicity. Inhibition of the NMDA receptor function may underlie some of the behavioral actions associated with acute exposure to ethanol. The sensitivity of NMDA receptors to ethanol is influenced by the subunit composition of the receptor and, by association, with certain cytoskeletal proteins. Previous studies have also suggested that phosphorylation may regulate the sensitivity of NMDA receptors to ethanol. In this study, the ethanol inhibition of recombinant NMDA receptor currents was determined under conditions designed to enhance or inhibit the activity of protein kinase A (PKA). Human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells were transfected with cDNAs encoding NMDA subunits and channel activity was monitored with whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology. Under control recording conditions, ethanol (100 mM) inhibited NR1/2A and NR1/2B receptor currents by approximately 25-30%. The degree of ethanol inhibition was not affected or was slightly enhanced under conditions designed to enhance PKA activity. This included treatment of cells with cAMP analogs, inclusion of phosphatase inhibitors or purified PKA in the pipette filling solution, co-expression of catalytically active PKA, expression of the NR1 PKA-site phosphorylation site mimic (S897D) or by co-expression of the PKA scaffolding protein yotiao or the dopamine D(1) receptor. Ethanol inhibition of NR1/2A and NR1/2B receptors was not altered when PKA effects were suppressed, either by co-expression of a PKI inhibitory peptide or the phosphorylation-deficient NR1 mutants (S897A, S896A, S896A/S897A). In addition, ethanol inhibition of NMDA-induced currents in cultured cortical or hippocampal neurons was not affected by modulators of PKA. These results suggest that PKA does not appear to play a major role in determining the acute ethanol sensitivity of NMDA receptors. 相似文献

We investigated the regulation of cardiac cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channels by protein kinase C (PKC) in Xenopus oocytes injected with cRNA encoding the cardiac (exon 5-) CFTR Cl- channel isoform. Membrane currents were recorded using a two-electrode voltage clamp technique. Activators of PKC or a cAMP cocktail elicited robust time-independent Cl- currents in cardiac CFTR-injected oocytes, but not in control water-injected oocytes. The effects of costimulation of both pathways were additive; however, maximum protein kinase A (PKA) activation occluded further activation by PKC. In oocytes expressing either the cardiac (exon 5-) or epithelial (exon 5+) CFTR isoform, Cl- currents activated by PKA were sustained, whereas PKC-activated currents were transient, with initial activation followed by slow current decay in the continued presence of phorbol esters, the latter effect likely due to down-regulation of endogenous PKC activity. The specific PKA inhibitor, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphothioate (Rp-cAMPS), and various protein phosphatase inhibitors were used to determine whether the stimulatory effects of PKC are dependent upon the PKA phosphorylation state of cardiac CFTR channels. Intraoocyte injection of 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N, N,N-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) or pretreatment of oocytes with BAPTA-acetoxymethyl-ester (BAPTA-AM) nearly completely prevented dephosphorylation of CFTR currents activated by cAMP, an effect consistent with inhibition of protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) by chelation of intracellular Mg2+. PKC-induced stimulation of CFTR channels was prevented by inhibition of basal endogenous PKA activity, and phorbol esters failed to stimulate CFTR channels trapped into either the partially PKA phosphorylated (P1) or the fully PKA phosphorylated (P1P2) channel states. Site-directed mutagenesis of serines (S686 and S790) within two consensus PKC phosphorylation sites on the cardiac CFTR regulatory domain attentuated, but did not eliminate, the stimulatory effects of phorbol esters on mutant CFTR channels. The effects of PKC on cardiac CFTR Cl- channels are consistent with a simple model in which PKC phosphorylation of the R domain facilitates PKA-induced transitions from dephosphorylated (D) to partially (P1) phosphorylated and fully (P1P2) phosphorylated channel states. 相似文献

Previous studies in neurons have demonstrated a rapid decrease in NMDA receptor currents following tyrosine kinase inhibition or exposure to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Inhibitors of protein kinase A (PKA) block the PDGF-induced rundown suggesting a multistep pathway that leads to decreased amplitudes of NMDA-activated currents. In this study, HEK293 cells expressing different NMDA receptor subunits were used to study the effects of prostacyclin receptor-mediated PKA activation on the magnitude of glutamate-activated currents. The prostacyclin agonist iloprost induced a rapid and time-dependent depression of otherwise stable glutamate-activated currents in cells expressing NR1-2a/2A or NR1-2a/2D receptors but not NR1-2a/2B or NR1-2a/2C receptors. This rundown was prevented by treatment of cells with the PKA inhibitor H89. The iloprost effect persisted in cells coexpressing NR1-2a/2A receptors and either wild-type or mutant Src kinase (SrcS17A). Co-expression of PSD-95 with NR1-2a/2A receptors reduced but did not eliminate the extent of rundown. Iloprost also produced current rundown in cells expressing NR1-2a and a C-terminal truncated NR2A subunit (NR2A1050stop) but not in those transfected with an NR2A tyrosine mutant (Y842F). The iloprost-induced rundown of wild-type NR1-2a/2A receptors was prevented by prior exposure of cells to hypertonic sucrose. These results suggest that PKA influences the functional activity of NMDA receptors in an NR2 subunit-selective fashion. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid (AA) regulates intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in a variety of cell types including salivary cells. In the present study, the effects of serine/threonine phosphatases on AA-induced Ca(2+) signaling in mouse parotid acini were determined. Mice were euthanized with CO2. Treatment of acini with the serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A blocked both thapsigargin- and carbachol-induced Ca2+ entry but resulted in an enhancement of AA-induced Ca2+ release and entry. Effects were mimicked by the protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) inhibitor tautomycin but were inhibited by the PP2A inhibitor okadaic acid. The protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor PKI(14-22) significantly attenuated AA-induced enhancement of Ca2+ release and entry in the presence of calyculin A, whereas it had no effect on calyculin A-induced inhibition of thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ responses. The ryanodine receptor (RyR) inhibitor, tetracaine, and StHt-31, a peptide known to competitively inhibit type II PKA regulatory subunit binding to PKA-anchoring protein (AKAP), abolished calyculin A enhancement of AA-induced Ca2+ release and entry. StHt-31 also abolished forskolin potentiation of 4-chloro-3-ethylphenol (4-CEP) and AA on Ca2+ release but had no effect on 8-(4-methoxyphenylthio)-2'-O-methyladenosine-3',5'-cAMP potentiation of 4-CEP responses. Results suggest that inhibition of PP1 results in an enhancement of AA-induced [Ca2+]i via PKA, AKAP, and RyRs. 相似文献

Abstract : In the present study, the role of phosphoprotein phosphatase in the regulation of L-type Ca2+ channel currents in rat pinealocytes was investigated using the whole-cell version of the patch-clamp technique. The effects of three phosphatase inhibitors, calyculin A, tautomycin, and okadaic acid, were compared. Although all three inhibitors were effective in inhibiting the L-type Ca2+ channel current, calyculin A was more potent than either tautomycin or okadaic acid, suggesting the involvement of phosphoprotein phosphatase-1. To determine the kinase involved in the regulation of these channels, cells were pretreated with H7 (a nonspecific kinase inhibitor), H89 (a specific inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent kinase), KT5823 (a specific inhibitor of cyclic GMP-dependent kinase), or calphostin C (a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C). Pretreatment with either H7 or calphostin C decreased the inhibitory effect of calyculin A on the L-type Ca2+ channel current. In contrast, pretreatment with H89 or KT5823 had no effect on the inhibition caused by calyculin A. Based on these observations, we conclude that basal phosphatase activity, probably phosphoprotein phosphatase-1, plays an important role in the regulation of L-type Ca2+ channel currents in rat pinealocytes by counteracting protein kinase C-mediated phosphorylation. 相似文献

Calyculin and okadaic acid promote perilipin phosphorylation and increase lipolysis in primary rat adipocytes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Lipolysis is primarily regulated by protein kinase A (PKA), which phosphorylates perilipin and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), and causes translocation of HSL from cytosol to lipid droplets in adipocytes. Perilipin coats lipid droplet surface and assumes to prevent lipase access to triacylglycerols, thus inhibiting basal lipolysis; phosphorylated perilipin facilitates lipolysis on PKA activation. Here, we induced lipolysis in primary rat adipocytes by inhibiting protein serine/threonine phosphatase with specific inhibitors, okadaic acid and calyculin. The incubation with calyculin promotes incorporation of 32Pi into perilipins, thus, confirming that perilipin is hyperphosphorylated. The lipolysis response to calyculin is gradually accompanied by increased accumulation of phosphorylated perilipin A in a concentration- and time-responsive manner. When perilipin phosphorylation is abrogated by the addition of N-ethylmaleimide, lipolysis ceases. Different from a considerable translocation of HSL upon PKA activation with isoproterenol, calyculin does not alter HSL redistribution in primary or differentiated adipocytes, as confirmed by both immunostaining and immunoblotting. Thus, we suggest that inhibition of the phosphatase by calyculin activates lipolysis via promoting perilipin phosphorylation rather than eliciting HSL translocation in adipocytes. Further, we show that when the endogenous phosphatase is inhibited by calyculin, simultaneous PKA activation with isoproterenol converts most of the perilipin to the hyperphosphorylated species, and induces enhanced lipolysis. Apparently, as PKA phosphorylates perilipin and stimulates lipolysis, the phosphatase acts to dephosphorylate perilipin and attenuate lipolysis. This suggests a two-step strategy governed by a kinase and a phosphatase to modulate the steady state of perilipin phosphorylation and hence the lipolysis response to hormonal stimulation. 相似文献

The channel activity of NMDA receptors is regulated by phosphorylation by protein kinases and by interaction with other proteins. Recombinant NR1/NR2A subtype NMDA receptor channels are potentiated by the protein tyrosine kinase Src, an effect which is mediated by a reduction in the high-affinity, voltage-independent Zn(2+) inhibition. However, it has been reported that Src-induced potentiation of NMDA receptor currents in hippocampus neurons is not mediated by a reduction in Zn(2+) inhibition. The post-synaptic density protein PSD-95 interacts with the C-terminus of NR2 subunits of the NMDA receptor. Here we demonstrate that PSD-95 eliminates the Src-induced potentiation of NR1/NR2A channels expressed in oocytes and reduces the sensitivity of the channels to Zn(2+). Our results reveal that the absence of Src-induced potentiation of PSD-95-coupled NR1/NR2A channels is not to due to the reduced sensitivity of these channels to Zn(2+). These results indicate that PSD-95 functionally modulates NR1/NR2A channels and explain why Src-induced potentiation of NMDA receptor currents in hippocampus neurons is not mediated by a reduction in Zn(2+) inhibition. 相似文献

Persistent activation of Galphai/o-coupled receptors results in a paradoxical enhancement of subsequent drug-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. The exact mechanism of this up-regulation in the cyclic AMP signaling pathway, known as heterologous sensitization, remains undefined. The present study was designed to investigate the involvement of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in D2L receptor-mediated sensitization in a neuronal cellular environment. The current studies were conducted in the Cath.a differentiated (CAD) cell line transfected stably with the D2L dopamine receptor (CAD-D2L). Long-term 18 h treatment with the D2 receptor agonist, quinpirole, resulted in a two-fold enhancement of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation. Similarly, long-term treatment with the PKA inhibitors, H89 or Rp-8Br-cAMP, also enhanced adenylate cyclase activity. In contrast, long-term activation of protein kinase A (PKA) by forskolin, isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX), or dibutyryl cyclic AMP caused a significant reduction in subsequent forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation and reduced both quinpirole- and H89-induced heterologous sensitization. The effects of PKA inhibitors and activators did not involve changes in PKA subunit expression. RT-PCR analysis of adenylate cyclase isoform expression patterns revealed the expression of mRNA for ACVI and ACIX in CAD-D2L cells. The ability of ACVI to be negatively regulated by PKA is consistent with the observation that inhibition of PKA results in heterologous sensitization of adenylate cyclase activity in CAD-D2L cells. 相似文献

Characterization of the mechanism underlying the reversal of long term potentiation by low frequency stimulation at hippocampal CA1 synapses. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Reversal of long term potentiation (LTP) may function to increase the flexibility and storage capacity of neuronal circuits; however, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We show that depotentiation induced by low frequency stimulation (LFS) (2 Hz, 10 min, 1200 pulses) was input-specific and dependent on N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activation. The ability of LFS to reverse LTP was mimicked by a brief application of NMDA. This NMDA-induced depotentiation was blocked by adenosine A(1) receptor antagonist. However, the reversal of LTP by LFS was unaffected by metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonism. This LFS-induced depotentiation was specifically prevented by protein phosphatase (PP)1 inhibitors, okadaic acid, and calyculin A but not by the PP2A or PP2B inhibitors. Furthermore, by using phosphorylation site-specific antibodies, we found that LFS-induced depotentiation is associated with a persistent dephosphorylation of the GluR1 subunit of amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor at serine 831, a protein kinase C and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) substrate, but not at serine 845, a substrate of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This effect was mimicked by bath-applied adenosine or NMDA and was specifically prevented by okadaic acid. Also, the increased phosphorylation of CaMKII at threonine 286 and the decreased PP activity seen with LTP were overcome by LFS, adenosine, or NMDA application. These results suggest that LFS erases LTP through an NMDA receptor-mediated activation of PP1 to dephosphorylate amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors and CaMKII in the CA1 region of the hippocampus. 相似文献

Our objectives were to further characterize the signaling pathways in melatonin-induced aggregation in Xenopus melanophores, specifically to investigate a possible role of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). By Western blotting we found that melatonin activates MAPK, which precedes melanosome aggregation measured in a microplate reader. Activation of MAPK, tyrosine phosphorylation of a previously described 280-kDa protein, and melanosome aggregation are sensitive to PD98059, a selective inhibitor of MAPK kinase. The MAPK activation is also decreased by the adenylate cyclase stimulant forskolin. In summary, we found that MAPK is activated during melatonin-induced melanosome aggregation. Activation was decreased by an inhibitor of MAPK kinase, and by forskolin. In addition to inhibition of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP), reduction in protein kinase A activity (PKA), and activation of protein phosphatase 2A, we suggest that melatonin receptors activate the MAPK cascade and tyrosine phosphorylation of the 280-kDa protein. Although the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway is the most prominent, our data suggest that simultaneous activation of the MAPK cascade is of importance to obtain a completely aggregated state. This new regulatory mechanism of organelle transport by the MAPK cascade might be important in other eukaryotic cells. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids (GCs) have been demonstrated to act through both genomic and nongenomic mechanisms. The present study demonstrated that corticosterone rapidly suppressed the activity of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in cultured hippocampal neurons. The effect was maintained with corticosterone conjugated to bovine serum albumin and blocked by inhibition of G protein activity with intracellular GDP-β-S application. Corticosterone increased GTP-bound G(s) protein and cyclic AMP (cAMP) production, activated phospholipase Cβ(3) (PLC-β(3)), and induced inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP(3)) production. Blocking PLC and the downstream cascades with PLC inhibitor, IP(3) receptor antagonist, Ca(2+) chelator, and protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors prevented the actions of corticosterone. Blocking adenylate cyclase (AC) and protein kinase A (PKA) caused a decrease in NMDA-evoked currents. Application of corticosterone partly reversed the inhibition of NMDA currents caused by blockage of AC and PKA. Intracerebroventricular administration of corticosterone significantly suppressed long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CA1 region of the hippocampus within 30 min in vivo, implicating the possibly physiological significance of rapid effects of GC on NMDA receptors. Taken together, our results indicate that GCs act on a putative G protein-coupled receptor to activate multiple signaling pathways in hippocampal neurons, and the rapid suppression of NMDA activity by GCs is dependent on PLC and downstream signaling. 相似文献

Norepinephrine and histamine markedly augment accumulations of cyclic AMP elicited by 2-chloroadenosine in a guinea pig cerebral cortical vesicular preparation. In addition, these biogenic amines stimulate phosphatidylinositol turnover. Phosphatidylinositol turnover is associated with mobilization of internal calcium and with stimulation of protein kinase C. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), a known activator of protein kinase C, has no effect on cyclic AMP levels alone, but in a concentration-dependent manner enhances accumulations of cyclic AMP elicited by 2-chloroadenosine. PMA, like norepinephrine, also enhances accumulations of cyclic AMP elicited by histamine. PMA has no effect on the synergistic accumulations of cyclic AMP elicited by combinations of amines and 2-chloroadenosine. PMA also augments accumulations of cyclic AMP elicited by forskolin. The results suggest that activation of phosphatidylinositol turnover by biogenic amines may lead via stimulation of protein kinase C to enhanced responsiveness of cyclic AMP-generating systems. 相似文献

Protein Kinase C Activation Attenuates N-Methyl-d-Aspartate-Induced Increases in Intracellular Calcium in Cerebellar Granule Cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Abstract: Activation of the N-methyl-d -aspartate (NMDA) subtype of glutamate receptor increases levels of intracellular calcium and can lead to stimulation of protein kinase C activity. Several reports have demonstrated that stimulation of protein kinase C can, in turn, increase electrophysiological responses to NMDA in certain cells or in oocytes expressing certain NMDA receptor subunits. In the present study, the effects of protein kinase C activation on NMDA receptor-mediated increases in intracellular Ca2+ levels were investigated in primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells using fura-2 fluorescence spectroscopy. Pretreatment of the cells with the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), but not the inactive analogue 4α-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, inhibited NMDA-induced increases in intracellular Ca2+ levels. Coincubation of cells with PMA and the kinase inhibitor staurosporine or calphostin C blocked the PMA effect. The potency of NMDA was reduced twofold, and the potency of the NMDA receptor coagonist, glycine, to enhance the response to NMDA was decreased fourfold by pretreatment of cells with PMA. The effect on glycine was mimicked by pretreatment with okadaic acid, a protein phosphatase inhibitor. PMA treatment did not significantly alter Mg2+ inhibition of the NMDA response but decreased the potency of the competitive antagonist CGS-19755. These data suggest that, in cerebellar granule cells, the function of the NMDA receptor may be subject to feedback inhibition by protein kinase C stimulation. Under physiological conditions, this inhibition may result from a decreased effectiveness of the endogenous coagonists, glutamate and glycine. 相似文献
