The effect of bradykinin on the activation production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was examined in the murine osteoblastic cell line, MC3T3-E1. Bradykinin, at concentrations ranging from 1 to 1000 nM, stimulated the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 2.5- to 3-fold within 10 s, and elevated cytosolic-free Ca2+, even in the absence of external Ca2+. This process is mediated through the activation of phospholipase C. Bradykinin at the same concentration also stimulated the production of PGE2 and caused a release of 3H radioactivity from the cells prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid, probably via the activation of phospholipase A2. Pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin inhibited the stimulation of PGE2 production and 3H radioactivity release, while the elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ and the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate were not altered by toxin-pretreatment. The addition of an unhydrolyzable analog of GTP, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP gamma S) to the beta-escin-permeabilized cells prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid enhanced the release of 3H radioactivity. The simultaneous presence of bradykinin with GTP gamma S further activated the 3H radioactivity release in the beta-escin-permeabilized cells. These results provide evidence that receptors for bradykinin in the MC3T3-E1 couple stimulating arachidonate release, probably via the activation of phospholipase A2, through a guanine nucleotide binding protein sensitive to pertussis toxin. 相似文献

Polyoma-virus-transformed 3T3 fibroblasts (py 3T3 cells) produce considerably more prostaglandin E2 than regular 3T3 cells during growth in cell culture. Incubations with exogenous arachidonic acid showed no increase in prostaglandin-producing capacity in the transformed cells. The rates of degradation of prostaglandin E2 were similar in the two lines. After labeling of cells with [1-14C]arachidonic acid, py 3T3 cultures continuously released radioactivity while the release by regular 3T3 cells was almost completed after 3 h. Prostaglandin E2 production during short incubations in buffer at various times after medium change was constantly higher in the transformed cells. Furthermore, hydrocortisone completely inhibited prostaglandin synthesis by the transformed cells. These results suggest that the increased formation of prostaglandin by py 3T3 cells is due to continuously elevated activity of phospholipase A2 or another acyl hydrolase. 相似文献

Transmembrane signalling mechanisms of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) were examined with special reference to the involvement of G-protein, in intact and permeabilized murine osteoblast-like cells. TNF alpha stimulated the release of 3H radioactivity from intact cells labeled with [3H]arachidonic acid within 10 min in a dose dependent manner and the production of lyso forms of phospholipids, an event presumably mediated through the activation of phospholipase A2. Production of cAMP and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was not affected by TNF alpha. Pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin inhibited the liberation of [3H]arachidonate. GTP gamma S (guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate) reduced the binding affinity of [125I]TNF alpha to beta-escin-permeabilized cells. The addition of TNF alpha together with an unhydrolyzable analog of GTP, GTP gamma S, to the beta-escin-permeabilized cells prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid led to a release of the 3H radioactivity. The production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was markedly stimulated by TNF alpha in a dose over 100 ng/ml, with a latent time of about 3 h, and the stimulation was abolished by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. The time and dose requirements for this process differed from those for the possible activation of phospholipase A2, thereby indicating that other process(es) in addition to the activation of phospholipase A2 may be responsible for the enhanced production of PGE2. The activity of cyclooxygenase (i.e. the combined activities of prostaglandin endoperoxide syntase and PGH2-PGE2 isomerase) was stimulated by TNF alpha with much the same time and dose requirements as for the production of PGE2, and the activation was found to be due to the increased amount of the enzyme, as assessed by a Western blot analysis with anti-cyclooxygenase antibody. This process was also sensitive to pertussis toxin. Therefore, receptors for TNF alpha in MC3T3-E1 cells apparently couple to G-protein sensitive to pertussis toxin and the coupling regulates the activations of phospholipase A2 and the de novo synthesis of cyclooxygenase. 相似文献

In an osteoblastic cell line, MC3T3-E1, cloned from mouse calvaria, epinephrine stimulated the production of prostaglandin E2 as an essentially sole arachidonate metabolite (Kusaka, M., Oshima, T., Yokota, K., Yamamoto, S., and Kumegawa, M. (1988) Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 972, 339-346). Western and Northern blot analyses showed increases in the enzyme protein and mRNA of fatty acid cyclooxygenase in the epinephrine-treated cells. A rapid cAMP production caused by epinephrine was followed by increases in the activity and mRNA of cyclooxygenase. Both dibutyryl cAMP and 8-bromo-cAMP also increased the level of the cyclooxygenase activity and mRNA. These results suggest that cAMP produced by beta-adrenergic stimulation was responsible for the increased cyclooxygenase mRNA level leading to induction of the cyclooxygenase enzyme. Furthermore, the addition of prostaglandin E2 (the final arachidonate metabolite in the MC3T3-E1 cells) brought about a rapid synthesis of intracellular cAMP followed by increases in the enzyme protein and mRNA of cyclooxygenase. 相似文献

We investigated the effects that the combination of IL-1 alpha and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) had on PGE2 production in a murine clonal osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 and primary rat calvarial osteoblast-like cells. In serum-supplemented medium, IL-1 alpha was a potent stimulator of PGE2 production in MC3T3-E1 cells (50-fold increase with 0.1 ng/ml). TGF-beta (10 ng/ml) had only a small effect alone and no additional effect on IL-1 alpha-induced responses. In serum-deprived MC3T3-E1 cells, PGE2 responses to IL-1 alpha were either absent or markedly reduced. TGF-beta alone had small effects. However, simultaneous addition of TGF-beta with IL-1 alpha to MC3T3-E1 cells partially restored the ability of IL-1 alpha to generate a PGE2 response (10-fold increase in PGE2 with 0.1 ng/ml of both IL-1 alpha and TGF-beta). As with MC3T3-E1 cells, serum-deprived primary fetal rat calvarial osteoblastic cells also did not respond to IL-1 alpha, unless TGF-beta was present in the medium (sixfold increase in PGE2 with 0.1 ng/ml IL-1 alpha and 10 ng/ml TGF-beta). The synergistic effect of TGF-beta and IL-1 alpha was specific for PGE2 responses, because these factors did not synergistically affect cell proliferation, collagen and noncollagen protein synthesis, or alkaline phosphatase activity. The observed synergy was not associated with changes in the steady state cyclooxygenase (PGH synthase) mRNA levels. However, it did correlate with increased release of [3H]arachidonic acid from prelabeled serum-depleted MC3T3-E1 cells. Hence, the synergistic interactions of IL-1 alpha and TGF-beta on PGE2 appear to occur through an increase in the release of arachidonic acid substrate from phospholipid pools. These effects may be important for both normal bone turnover and the responses of bone to inflammatory and immune stimuli. 相似文献

The appearance of the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway in human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells was investigated during 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3-induced monocytic differentiation. 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D-3-treated HL-60 cells acquired the ability to convert [1-14C]arachidonic acid to thromboxane B2 and prostaglandin E2 during monocytic differentiation. The major cyclooxygenase product synthesized by the HL-60 cells after 3-4 days exposure to 1 alpha,25- dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (48 nM) was thromboxane B2 and its production was about 19-25-times higher than that of untreated HL-60 cells. The percent conversion of thromboxane B2 from [1-14C]arachidonic acid in the 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (48 nM, 3 day exposure)-treated HL-60 cells was about 4.4% as compared to that (about 0.3%) of the untreated cells, whereas the percent conversion of thromboxane B2 from [1-14C]prostaglandin H2 in the 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3-treated cell homogenate was about 22.4% as compared to that (about 13.6%) of the untreated cell homogenate. The stimulatory effect of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 on thromboxane B2 production from [1-14C]arachidonic acid and from [1-14C]prostaglandin H2 in HL-60 cells was inhibited by the addition of cycloheximide (1 microgram/ml). However, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (48 nM) did not significantly stimulate the arachidonic acid release either in HL-60 cells or in 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3-induced cells. These results suggest that the stimulatory effect of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 on the thromboxane production in HL-60 cells was not due to the activation of phospholipase A2 but due to the induction of fatty acid cyclooxygenase and thromboxane synthetase activities. Thromboxane A2 actively produced during the monocytic differentiation of HL-60 cells could influence the cell adhesiveness of the monocyte-macrophage-differentiated cells. 相似文献

The effects of phorbol myristate acetate, an activator of protein kinase C, on the release of [3H]arachidonic acid and prostaglandin synthesis were studied in an osteoblast cell line (MC3T3-E1). Phorbol myristate acetate (20 uM) liberated 16 and 55% of the [3H]arachidonate in prelabeled phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine, respectively, and evoked a 19-fold stimulation in the synthesis of prostaglandin E2. Phorbol myristate acetate doubled the cellular mass of 1,2-diacylglycerol and stimulated the liberation of [3H]arachidonate from the diacylglycerol pool in prelabeled cells. The diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor RHC 80267 blocked 75–80% of the phorbol ester-promoted (total) cellular liberation of [3H]arachidonic acid and production of prostaglandin E2. In comparison, the release of [3H]arachidonate from phosphatidylethanolamine (but not phosphatidylinositol) was only partially antagonized (to the same degree) by the PLA2 inhibitor p-bromophenacylbromide and the protein kinase C inhibitor Et-18-OMe. PMA-induced formation of diacylglycerol or synthesis of PGE2 was not affected by the prior inhibition of protein kinase C. Therefore, we have shown a novel pathway for the liberation of arachidonic acid in osteoblasts involving the nonspecific hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine by phospholipase C followed by the deesterification of diacylgycerol. This pathway can be activated by a phorbol ester through a protein kinase C-independent mechanism. 相似文献

The rat thyroid cell line, FRTL-5, expresses an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor when exposed to thyrotropin. We have found that occupation of this alpha 1-adrenergic receptor by norepinephrine stimulated the release of [3H]arachidonic acid from prelabeled cells. Arachidonic acid was metabolized primarily to prostaglandin E2 and to much smaller amounts of 11-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid, 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid, prostaglandin D2, and thromboxane B2. Synthesis of all these metabolites was inhibited by the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin. When FRTL-5 cells were starved of thyrotropin for 24 h, norepinephrine nearly doubled [3H]thymidine uptake into DNA. Cyclooxygenase inhibitors inhibited norepinephrine-stimulated thymidine uptake by 60-70%. Of several arachidonic acid metabolites tested, none was able to stimulate thymidine uptake directly in the presence of indomethacin. Prostaglandin E2, however, was able to restore [3H]thymidine uptake when added together with norepinephrine in the presence of indomethacin. Thus, occupation of an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor in a functional rat thyroid cell line leads to arachidonic acid release. Subsequent metabolism of the arachidonic acid by the cyclooxygenase pathway leads to synthesis of prostaglandin E2, which mediates a norepinephrine-stimulated activity related to cell replication. 相似文献

The effects of (human recombinant) tumor necrosis factor-alpha on phosphatidylinositol breakdown, release of 1,2-diacylglycerols, mobilization of arachidonate from diacylglycerol and prostaglandin synthesis were examined in a model osteoblast cell line (MC3T3-E1). Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (10 nM) caused a specific (30%) decrease in the mass of phosphatidylinositol (and no other phospholipids) within 30 min of exposure. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha doubled the rate of incorporation of [32P]orthophosphoric acid into phosphatidylinositol, indicating that the turnover of inositol phosphate was enhanced, and increased the content of diacylglycerol in parallel with phosphatidylinositol breakdown. The cytokine (10-50 nM; 4 h) also promoted a specific release of 24-34% of the [3H]arachidonate from prelabeled phosphatidylinositol, a release of 80% of the 3H-fatty acid from the diacylglycerol pool, and a 30-fold increase in the synthesis of prostaglandin E2. The tumor necrosis factor-alpha induced liberation of [3H]arachidonate from diacylglycerol, cellular arachidonate release and the synthesis of prostaglandin E2 were each blocked by an inhibitor of diacylglycerol lipase, the compound RHC 80267 (30 microM). Therefore, we conclude that, in the MC3T3-E1 cell line, tumor necrosis factor-alpha activates a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (phosphatidylinositol inositolphosphohydrolase; EC 3.1.4.3) to release diacylglycerol, and increases the metabolism of diacylglycerol to liberate arachidonate for prostaglandin synthesis. 相似文献

Induction of prostacyclin formation by sodium n-butyrate in a cloned epithelial liver cell line 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of sodium n-butyrate on prostaglandin synthesis in cultured cells was examined. Exposure of BC-90 cells, a clone of an epithelial rat liver cell line, to 1 mM sodium n-butyrate for 40 h induced prostacyclin production. Prostacyclin synthesis was proved by demonstrating: (1) production of labeled 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha by treating [14C]arachidonic acid pre-labeled cells with calcium ionophore A23187, (2) production of unstable substance that inhibited adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation, and (3) conversion of [14C]arachidonic acid to 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha in homogenates of n-butyrate-treated cells. Untreated control cells showed negligible prostaglandin synthesis. Untreated cell homogenates did not convert [14C]arachidonic acid to any prostaglandins, but they converted [14C]prostaglandin H2 to prostacyclin. Induction of prostacyclin production by n-butyrate was also demonstrated with cells that had been treated with acetylsalicylic acid before n-butyrate treatment in acetylsalicylic acid-free medium. Incorporation of [3H]acetylsalicylic acid by sodium n-butyrate-treated cells increased in accordance with treatment time, while that of untreated cells did not change during culture. There was no difference in the phospholipase A2 activities of n-butyrate-treated and -untreated cells. From these findings, the possibility that n-butyrate induced prostacyclin in BC-90 cells through induction of fatty acid cyclooxygenase activity is discussed. 相似文献

Inflammation triggers an increase in osteoclast (bone resorbing cell) number and activity. Osteoclastogenesis is largely controlled by a triad of proteins consisting of a receptor (RANK), a ligand (RANK-L) and a decoy receptor (osteoprotegerin, OPG). Whilst RANK is expressed by osteoclasts, RANK-L and OPG are expressed by osteoblasts. The long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4n-6) and its metabolite prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), are pro-inflammatory and PGE2 is a potent stimulator of RANKL expression. Various LCPUFAs such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA, 18:3n-6) have anti-inflammatory activity. We aimed to determine if AA itself can stimulate RANKL expression and whether EPA, DHA and GLA inhibit RANKL expression in osteoblasts. MC3T3-E1/4 osteoblast-like cells were cultured under standard conditions with each of the LCPUFAs (5microg/ml) for 48h. Membrane-bound RANKL expression was measured by flow cytometry and OPG secretion measured by ELISA. In a second experiment, RANKL expression in MC3T3-E1/4 cells was stimulated by PGE2 treatment and the effect of EPA, DHA and GLA on membrane-bound RANKL expression and OPG secretion determined. The percentage of RANKL-positive cells was higher (p<0.05) than controls following treatment with AA or GLA but not after co-treatment with the cyclooxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin. DHA and EPA had no effect on membrane-bound RANKL expression under standard cell culture conditions. Secretion of OPG was lower (p<0.05) in AA-treated cells but not significantly different from controls in GLA, EPA or DHA treated cells. Treatment with prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) resulted in an increase (p<0.05) in the percentage of RANK-L positive cells and a decrease (p<0.05) in mean OPG secretion. The percentage of RANKL positive cells was significantly lower following co-treatment with PGE2 and either DHA or EPA compared to treatment with PGE2 alone. Mean OPG secretion remained lower than controls in cells treated with PGE2 regardless of co-treatment with EPA or DHA. Results from this study suggest COX products of GLA and AA induce membrane-bound RANKL expression in MC3T3-E1/4 cells. EPA and DHA have no effect on membrane-bound RANKL expression in cells cultured under standard conditions however both EPA and DHA inhibit the PGE2-induced increase in RANKL expression in MC3T3-E1/4 cells. 相似文献

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) as well as oestrogen (E2) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) affect bone cells. The aim of the study was to determine whether arachidonic acid (AA), E2, and PTH increase prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis in MG-63 and MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells and the level of mediation by COX-1 and COX-2. PGE2 levels were determined in the conditioned culture media of MG-63 and MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts after exposure to AA, PTH and E2. Cells were pre-incubated in some experiments with the unselective COX inhibitor indomethacin or the COX-2 specific blocker NS-398. Indirect immunofluorescence was performed on MG-63 cells to detect the presence and location of the two enzymes involved. AA increased PGE2 secretion in both cell lines; production by MC3T3-E1 cells, however, was significantly higher than that of MG-63 cells. This could be due to autoamplification via the EP1 subtype of PGE receptors in mouse MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Both COX-1 and COX-2 affected the regulation of PGE2 synthesis in MG-63 cells. E2 had no effect on PGE2 secretion in both cell lines, while PTH caused a slight increase in PGE2 synthesis in the MG-63 cell line. 相似文献

Regulation of prostaglandin synthesis by thyrotropin, insulin or insulin-like growth factor-I, and serum in FRTL-5 rat thyroid cells. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present report shows that thyrotropin (TSH) regulates all three steps involved in prostaglandin synthesis in FRTL-5 rat thyroid cells, i.e. arachidonic acid release from membrane phospholipids, cyclooxygenase (prostaglandin H synthase) action, and individual prostaglandin formation; however, its action at specific steps may require the presence of, or can be duplicated by, insulin, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), and/or a serum factor. Thus, TSH releases free arachidonic acid from rat FRTL-5 thyroid cells whose phospholipid fraction is radiolabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid; this action involves a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein, is not cAMP mediated, and does not require insulin or 5% serum. To quantitate TSH effects on cyclooxygenase activity and on individual prostaglandin formation, a homogenate system and a rapid reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography procedure have been developed to measure cyclooxygenase metabolites. TSH increased cyclooxygenase activity in homogenates only if the cells were also exposed to insulin, IGF-I, and/or 5% calf serum; TSH alone had no apparent effect on the activity. Maximal activation, 4-fold over basal/micrograms of DNA, took 36 h to achieve and reflected, at least in part, an increase in cyclooxygenase gene expression. Like cyclooxygenase activity, induction of prostaglandin E2 production required 2 or more factors, i.e. TSH plus insulin/IGF-I or TSH plus insulin/IGF-I plus serum. Increased production of prostaglandin D2, could, however, be detected if cells were treated with TSH alone and the TSH activity could be duplicated by insulin, IGF-I, or calf serum alone. 相似文献

Extracellular ATP dose dependently stimulated 45Ca2+ influx even in the presence of nifedipine, a Ca2+ antagonist that inhibits voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel, in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. ATP stimulated arachidonic acid release and the synthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). However, the ATP-induced arachidonic acid release was significantly reduced by chelating extracellular Ca2+ with EGTA. On the other hand, ATP induced DNA synthesis of these cells in a dose-dependent manner in the range between 1μM and 1 mM. The pretreatment with indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, suppressed both ATP-induced PGE2 synthesis and DNA synthesis in these cells. The inhibitory effect by 50μM indomethacin on the DNA synthesis was reversed by adding 10μM PGE2. These results strongly suggest that extracellular ATP stimulates Ca2+ influx resulting in the release of arachidonic acid in osteoblast-like cells and that extracellular ATP-induced proliferative effect is mediated, at least in part, by ATP-stimulated PGE2 synthesis. 相似文献

Decreased prostaglandin production in cultured smooth muscle cells from atherosclerotic rabbit aorta
Prostaglandin synthesis in aortic smooth muscle cells originating from healthy an atherosclerotic rabbits was studied by incubating [14C]arachidonic acid with intact confluent cells and cell homogenates. In spite of a reduced 6-keto prostaglandin F1 alpha formation, no potentiating effect on the prostaglandin E2 generation occurred. Indeed, both cyclooxygenase and prostaglandin I2 synthetase activities appear to be reduced. These results suggest that an impaired arachidonic acid utilisation in aortic smooth muscle cells may be involved in the course of the atherosclerotic process. 相似文献

Isotope-labelled arachidonic acid has been used to study in vitro formation of prostaglandins and other products in mammalian tissue. Quantitative conclusions about cyclooxygenase activity have been drawn from such studies. However, arachidonic acid is present in all tissues, free and esterified, and therefore it can be expected that endogenous arachidonate would interfere with transformation of the radioactive exogenous substrate. (1-14C)-labelled arachidonate was, therefore, incubated with homogenates of various human tissues (amnion, chrorion, placenta and myometrium), and the two molecular forms, 12C and 14C, of arachidonic acid as well as of prostaglandin E2 and prostaglandin F2 alpha were quantitated, before and after 30 min of incubation, using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with multiple ion detection. The results demonstrate a substantial release of arachidonic acid into the medium during incubation. There was no correlation between either the initial concentration of [12C]arachidonic acid and initial concentration of [12C]prostaglandin E2 or the percent increase of those compounds during incubation. The net formation of [12C]prostaglandin E2 and [14C]prostaglandin E2 from endogenous and exogenous precursor, respectively, were also very different. The study shows that by simply incubating (1-14C)-labelled arachidonic acid in tissue homogenates and measuring the amount of radioactivity transformed into various prostaglandins only qualitative conclusions can be drawn. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid release by bombesin. A novel postreceptor target for heterologous mitogenic desensitization 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Prolonged exposure of Swiss 3T3 cells to vasopressin causes heterologous mitogenic desensitization to bombesin and structurally related peptides including gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) without down-regulation of the bombesin receptor. The number and affinity of bombesin/GRP receptor sites and modulation of 125I-GRP binding by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) are unaffected in membrane preparations from vasopressin-treated cultures. Stimulation of inositol phosphate accumulation, mobilization of intracellular calcium, production of diacylglycerol, and transmodulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor by bombesin are similarly unaffected. Thus, the heterologous mitogenic desensitization is not due to uncoupling of bombesin receptor from transducing G protein(s) or to an inability to activate phospholipase C. Bombesin, unlike vasopressin, causes a rapid dose-dependent release of [3H]arachidonic acid and prostaglandin E2 from Swiss 3T3 cells (EC50 approximately 4 nM), which is inhibited by the specific bombesin receptor antagonist [Leu13-psi(CH2NH)-Leu14]bombesin. Crucially, release of [3H]arachidonic acid and prostaglandin E2 by bombesin is completely suppressed by prolonged pretreatment with vasopressin (EC50 = 0.6 nM). The mitogenic action of bombesin is restored by adding arachidonic acid to vasopressin-treated cells. We conclude first that arachidonic acid release is an early signal in the mitogenic response to bombesin and second that pretreatment with vasopressin induces heterologous mitogenic desensitization to bombesin by a novel mechanism: inhibition of arachidonic acid release. 相似文献

Stimulation of histamine release and arachidonic acid metabolism in rat peritoneal mast cells by thapsigargin, a non-TPA-type tumor promoter 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Thapsigargin, a non-TPA-type tumor promoter, releases histamine and stimulates arachidonic acid metabolism in rat peritoneal mast cells. In order to clarify the relationship between the histamine-releasing activity and the arachidonic acid metabolism-stimulating activity of thapsigargin in mast cells, the effects of cyclooxygenase inhibitors, indomethacin and ibuprofen, a lipoxygenase inhibitor, AA861, and dual inhibitors for cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, nordihydroguaiaretic acid and BW755C, on histamine release and arachidonic acid metabolism were examined. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis revealed that the peritoneal mast cells preferentially produce prostaglandin D2 by thapsigargin treatment. These inhibitors suppressed thapsigargin-induced prostaglandin D2 production in a dose-dependent manner, but failed to inhibit histamine release, suggesting that the mechanisms for stimulation of histamine release by thapsigargin is not dependent on increased arachidonic acid metabolism. Time-course experiments of histamine release and the release of radioactivity from [3H]arachidonic acid-labeled mast cells also provide evidence for a difference in mechanism. 相似文献

Myofibroblasts were cultured successfully from experimental wound tissue in rat palatal mucoperiosteum. Arachidonic acid metabolizing activity in cultured myofibroblasts was compared with that in fibroblasts cultured from normal mucoperiosteum. Prostaglandins biosynthesized from [14C]arachidonic acid in cell-free homogenates of both myofibroblasts and fibroblasts were prostaglandins D2, E2 and F2 alpha, and the activity producing each prostaglandin was not significantly different between the myofibroblasts and the fibroblasts, whereas smooth muscle cells, which are histologically similar to myofibroblasts, produced mainly 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha, and relatively small amounts of prostaglandin E2. The release of arachidonic acid from cells prelabeled with [14C]arachidonic acid was compared among three types of cell. The calcium ionophore A23187 strongly enhanced arachidonic acid release in all three cell types. Bradykinin, 5-hydroxytryptamine and prostaglandin F2 alpha affected the stimulation of arachidonic acid release in the fibroblasts but were less or not effective in the myofibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. In addition, prostaglandin E2 biosynthesized in response to several stimuli was measured by radioimmunoassay. The content of prostaglandin E2 correlated closely with arachidonic acid release. In this study, we showed homogeneity between the myofibroblasts and fibroblasts in prostaglandin synthesizing activity and similarity in response to various stimuli between the myofibroblasts and smooth muscle cells, from the standpoint of arachidonic acid metabolism. 相似文献
