Effects of guanine nucleotides on the adenylate cyclase activity of thyroid plasma membranes were investigated by monitoring metabolism of the radiolabeled nucleotides by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). When ATP was used as substrate with a nucleotide-regeneratign system, TSH stimulated the adenylate cyclase activity in the absence of exogenous guanine nucleotide. Addition of GTP and GDP equally enhanced the TSH stimulation. Effects of GTP and GDP were indistinguishable in regard to their inhibitory effects on NaF-stimulated activities. The results from TLC suggested that GDP could be converted to GTP by a nucleotide-regenerating system. Even in the absence of nucleotide-regenerating system, addition of GDP to the adenylate cyclase assay mixture int he parallel decrease in ATP levels and formation of GTP indicating that thyroid plasma membrane preparatiosn possessed a transphosphorylating activity. When an ATP analog, App[NH]p, was used as substrate without a nucleotide-regenerating system, no conversion of GDP to GTP was observed. Under such conditions, TSH did not stimulate the adenylate cyclase activity unless exogenous GTP or Gpp[NH]p was added. GDP no longer supported TSH stimulation and caused a slight decrease in the activity. GDP was less inhibitory than Gpp(NH)p to the NaF-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. These results suggest: (1) TSH stimulation of thyroid adenylate cyclase is absolutely dependent on the regulatory nucleotides. (2) In contrst to GTP, GDP cannot support the coupling of the receptor-TSH complex to the catalytic componenet of adenylate cyclase. (3) The nucleotide regulatory site is more inhibitory to the stimulation of the enzyme by NaF when occupied by Gpp[NH]p than GDP. 相似文献

Negative control on the thyroid cyclic AMP system has been studied. The increase of cyclic AMP levels induced by TSH in dog thyroid slices and its consequent secretion were inhibited by norepinephrine. This effect was different from the previously described activation of cyclic AMP disposal by acetylcholine: it was not calcium-dependent, was observed in the presence of isobutyl methylxanthine and was not inhibited by atropine. The inhibitory action of norepinephrine was abolished by phentolamine but not by L-propranolol. Clonidine and epinephrine also markedly inhibited the elevation of cyclic AMP levels, but phenylephrine did not. The inhibitory effect of norepinephrine and clonidine was abolished by yohimbine but not by prazosin. These results suggest that the effect of adrenergic agents on dog thyroid follicular cells is mediated by alpha 2-receptors. Similar results were obtained on dog thyroid adenylate cyclase activity: norepinephrine diminished the activation of adenylate cyclase induced by TSH, in a sodium-dependent process. This inhibition was abolished by phentolamine and yohimbine, but not by L-propranolol and and prazosin. This shows that the negative alpha 2-adrenergic effect bears directly on adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Treatment of bovine thyroid plasma membranes with phospholipase A or C inhibited the stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). In general, basal and NaF-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was not influenced by such treatment. When plasma membranes were incubated with 1–2 units/ml phospholipase A, subsequent addition of phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylserine but not phosphatidylethanolamine partially restored TSH stimulation. Phosphatidylcholine was more effective than phosphatidylserine in that it caused greater restoration of the TSH response and smaller amounts of phosphatidylcholine were active. However, when the TSH effect was obliterated by treatment of plasma membranes with 10 units/ml phospholipase A, phospholipids were unable to restore any response to TSH. Lubrol PX, a nonionic detergent, inhibited basal, TSH- and NaF-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities in thyroid plasma membranes. Although phosphatidylcholine partially restored TSH stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in the presence of Lubrol PX, it did not have a similar effect on the stimulation induced by NaF. These results indicate that phospholipids are probably essential components in the system by which TSH stimulates adenylate cyclase activity in thyroid plasma membranes. The effects do not seem to involve the catalytic activity of adenylate cyclase but the data do not permit a distinction between decreased binding of TSH to its receptor or impairment of the signal from the bound hormone to the enzyme activity. 相似文献

In the present study effects of a new local anaesthetics, pentacaine (trans-2-pyrolidinocyclohexylester of 3-pentyloxyphenylcarbamic acid), and of some chemically related compounds on rat hepatic adenylate cyclase activity were studied under various experimental conditions. As compared with tetracaine, the local anaesthetics tested showed stronger inhibitory effects, regardless of the type of stimulating agents used to activate adenylate cyclase. The most potent effect was observed with pentacaine. Its inhibitory effects on glucagon, guanylylimidodiphosphate (Gpp/NH/p), sodium fluoride or forskolin stimulated activity suggest that it may directly act on the catalytic unit of adenylate cyclase. The same conclusion can be drawn based on its inhibitory effects on adenylate cyclase, regardless ATP concentrations used as the enzyme substrate, and on octylpyranoside solubilized enzyme activated by preincubation of the enzyme preparation with Gpp/NH/p. Structure-activity studies have suggested that the pentacaine molecule as a whole and none of its parts alone or its analogs are responsible for the inhibitory effect. However, the inhibitory effects of these compounds on the rat adenylate cyclase activity do not correlate with their local anaesthetic properties. The possibility of using adenylate cyclase inhibitors to decrease cyclic AMP production under pathological conditions, like in cholera, known to be due to a high adenylate cyclase activity, is discussed. 相似文献

Conflicting opinions were recently expressed concerning the possible effect of 2-adrenergic agonists upon cyclic AMP production in pancreatic islets. In the present: study, clonidine inhibited glucose-induced insulin release from rat pancreatic islets, this inhibitory effect being abolished by idazoxan. Clonidine did not suppress the capacity of forskolin to augment glucose-induced insulin release. In a particulate subcellular fraction derived from the islets, adenylate cyclase was activated by calmodulin (in the presence of Ca2+), NaF, GTP,, L-arginine, and forskolin, and slightly inhibited by clonidine. The inhibitory action of clonidine upon basal adenylate cyclase activity was more pronounced in islet crude homogenates. The inhibitory effect of clonidine was antagonized by forskolin whether in the particulate fraction or crude homogenate. At variance with the modest effects of glucagon, D-glucose, L-arginine, or a tumor-promoting phorbol ester upon cyclic AMP production by intact islets, forskolin caused a six-fold increase in cyclic AMP production. Clonidine inhibited cyclic AMP production by intact islets, whether in the absence or presence of forskolin. It is proposed that the inhibitory action of clonidine upon insulin release is attributable , in part at least, to inhibition of adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

The activation of bovine thyroid adenylate cyclase (ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1) by Gpp(NH)p has been studied using steady-state kinetic methods. This activation is complex and may be characterized by two Gpp(NH)p binding sites of different affinities with measured constants: Ka1 = 0.1 micro M and Ka2 = 2.9 micro M. GDP beta S does not completely inhibit the Gpp(NH)p activation: analysis of the data is consistent with a single GDP beta S inhibitory site which is competitive with the weaker Gpp(NH)p site. Guanine nucleotide effects upon F- activation of adenylate cyclase have been studied. When App(NH)p is the substrate, 10 micro M GTP along with 10 mM NaF gives higher activity than NaF alone, while GDP together with NaF inhibits the activity by 50% relative to NaF. These features are not observed when the complex is assayed with ATP in the presence of a nucleotide regenerating system or when analogs Gpp)NH)p or GDP beta S are used along with NaF. These effects were studied in three other membrane systems using App(NH)p as substrate: rat liver, rat ovary and turkey erythrocyte. No consistent pattern of guanine nucleotide effects upon fluoride activation could be observed in the different membrane preparations. Previous experiments showed that the size of soluble thyroid adenylate cyclase changed whether membranes were preincubated with Gpp(NH)p or NaF. This size change roughly corresponded to the molecular weight of the nucleotide regulatory protein. This finding, coupled with the present data, suggests that two guanine nucleotide binding sites may be involved in regulating thyroid cyclase and that these sites may be on different protein chains. 相似文献

Potent and cooperative feedback inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity by calcium in pituitary-derived GH3 cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Calcium (Ca2+) ion concentrations that are achieved intracellularly upon membrane depolarization or activation of phospholipase C stimulate adenylate cyclase via calmodulin (CaM) in brain tissue. In the present study, this range of Ca2+ concentrations produced unanticipated inhibitory effects on the plasma membrane adenylate cyclase activity of GH3 cells. Ca2+ concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.8 microM exerted an increasing inhibition on enzyme activity, which reached a plateau (35-45% inhibition) at around 1 microM. This inhibitory effect was highly cooperative for Ca2+ ions, but was neither enhanced nor dependent upon the addition of CaM (1 microM) to EGTA-washed membranes. The inhibition was greatly enhanced upon stimulation of the enzyme by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and/or GTP. Prior exposure of cultured cells to pertussis toxin did not affect the inhibition of plasma membrane adenylate cyclase activity by Ca2+, although in these membranes, hormonal (somatostatin) inhibition was significantly attenuated. Maximally effective concentrations of Ca2+ and somatostatin produced additive inhibitory effects on adenylate cyclase. The addition of phosphodiesterase inhibitors demonstrated that inhibitory effects of Ca2+ were not mediated by Ca2(+)-dependent stimulation of a phosphodiesterase activity. These observations provide a mechanism for the feedback inhibition by elevated intracellular Ca2+ levels on cAMP-facilitated Ca2+ entry into GH3 cells, as well as inhibitory crosstalk between Ca2(+)-mobilizing signals and adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

Incubation of rat liver plasma membranes with liposomes of dioleoyl phosphatidic acid (dioleoyl-PA) led to an inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity which was more pronounced when fluoride-stimulated activity was followed than when glucagon-stimulated activity was followed. If Mn2+ (5 mM) replaced low (5 mM) [Mg2+] in adenylate cyclase assays, or if high (20 mM) [Mg2+] were employed, then the perceived inhibitory effect of phosphatidic acid was markedly reduced when the fluoride-stimulated activity was followed but was enhanced for the glucagon-stimulated activity. The inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity observed correlated with the association of dioleoyl-PA with the plasma membranes. Adenylate cyclase activity in dioleoyl-PA-treated membranes, however, responded differently to changes in [Mg2+] than did the enzyme in native liver plasma membranes. Benzyl alcohol, which increases membrane fluidity, had similar stimulatory effects on the fluoride- and glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities in both native and dioleoyl-PA-treated membranes. Incubation of the plasma membranes with phosphatidylserine also led to similar inhibitory effects on adenylate cyclase and responses to Mg2+. Arrhenius plots of both glucagon- and fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity were different in dioleoyl-PA-treated plasma membranes, compared with native membranes, with a new 'break' occurring at around 16 degrees C, indicating that dioleoyl-PA had become incorporated into the bilayer. E.s.r. analysis of dioleoyl-PA-treated plasma membranes with a nitroxide-labelled fatty acid spin probe identified a new lipid phase separation occurring at around 16 degrees C with also a lipid phase separation occurring at around 28 degrees C as in native liver plasma membranes. It is suggested that acidic phospholipids inhibit adenylate cyclase by virtue of a direct headgroup specific interaction and that this perturbation may be centred at the level of regulation of this enzyme by the stimulatory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein NS. 相似文献

Presence of a functional inhibitory GTP-binding regulatory component, Gi, linked to adenylate cyclase in adipocytes of ob/ob mice 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It has been reported recently (Begin-Heick, N. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 6187-6193) that adipocytes from the obese mouse strain (ob/ob), unlike normal mice (+/+), lack functional Gi, a GTP-regulated protein complex that mediates inhibition of adenylate cyclase. In contrast, we have found functional Gi linked to inhibition of adenylate cyclase in adipocyte membranes from both ob/ob and +/+ mice. This conclusion is based on observation of: 1) GTP-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase by antilipolytic agents, such as prostaglandin E2, nicotinic acid, and the adenosine receptor agonist, phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA); 2) classical biphasic GTP kinetics, with stimulation by low and inhibition by high concentrations of GTP; and 3) elimination of cyclase inhibition by antilipolytic agents upon treatment of ob/ob adipocytes with pertussis toxin. Upon treatment with pertussis toxin and [32P] NAD, purified adipocyte membranes from ob/ob mice incorporated twice as much radioactivity per unit membrane protein than those from +/+ mice in the 40,000-42,000 region. The inhibitory actions of PIA on adenylate cyclase were blocked by the adenosine receptor antagonists, theophylline and isobutylmethylxanthine. However, in contrast to other known inhibitory adenosine receptors, relatively high (100 nM) PIA concentrations were required for half-maximal inhibition of adenylate cyclases from both +/+ and ob/ob adipocytes. The adipocyte adenylate cyclase from both mouse strains were approximately equally susceptible to inhibition by nicotinic acid and prostaglandin E2. However, the ob/ob cyclase was inhibited by 47% with PIA, whereas the enzyme from the +/+ mouse was inhibited by only 27% (p less than 0.01). This greater inhibition by adenosine may contribute to abnormal fat metabolism in adipocytes from ob/ob mice. 相似文献

A method was devised which increases the cholesterol concentration of rat liver plasma membranes by exchange from cholesterol-rich liposomes at low temperature (4 degrees C). When the cholesterol concentration of liver plasma membranes is increased, there is an increase in lipid order as detected by a decrease in mobility of an incorporated fatty acid spin probe. This is accompanied by an inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. The various ligand-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities exhibit different sensitivities to inhibition by cholesterol, with inhibition of glucagon-stimulated greater than fluoride-stimulated greater than basal activity. The bilayer-fluidizing agent benzyl alcohol is able to reverse the inhibitory effect of cholesterol on adenylate cyclase activity in full. The thermostability of fluoride-stimulated cyclase is increased in the cholesterol-rich membranes. Elevated cholesterol concentrations abolish the lipid-phase separation occurring at 28 degrees C in native membranes as detected by an incorporated fatty acid spin probe. This causes Arrhenius plots of glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity to become linear, rather than exhibiting a break at 28 degrees C. It is suggested that the cholesterol contents of both halves of the bilayer are increased by the method used and that inhibition of adenylate cyclase ensues, owing to the increase in lipid order and promotion of protein-protein and specific cholesterol-phospholipid interactions. 相似文献

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) inhibits cardiac adenylate cyclase activity by interacting with specific receptors coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. Structure-activity studies revealed that only C-terminal fragments can exhibit an NPY-like inhibitory effect on 125I-NPY binding and adenylate cyclase activity of rat cardiac ventricular membranes. Although NPY(17-36) inhibited 125I-NPY binding with high potency, it produced a biphasic effect on basal (GTP, 10 and 100 microM or guanosine 5'-gamma-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S, 10 microM) adenylate cyclase activity. Low concentrations (less than 1 nM) of NPY(17-36) inhibited the adenylate cyclase activity whereas high concentrations (greater than 1 nM) reversed this action. GTP gamma S (100 microM) reversed the biphasic effect of NPY(17-36). NPY(17-36) exhibited only a stimulatory effect in the membranes from pertussis toxin-treated rats and an inhibitory effect with membranes from cholera toxin-treated rats. Low concentrations (less than 1 nM) of NPY(17-36) inhibited isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity whereas high doses (greater than 1 nM) reversed this activity. The cardiac NPY receptor antagonist, NPY(18-36) (1 microM), completely blocked the biphasic effect of NPY(17-36) on isoproterenol-stimulated activity. The inhibitory dose-response curve of NPY on isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was shifted parallel to the right by NPY(17-36) (1 microM), suggesting that it is an antagonist of NPY at high concentrations. N-alpha-acetylated and C-terminally deamidated analogs of NPY(17-36) had no effect on the adenylate cyclase activity. [im-DNP-His26] NPY exhibited a more pronounced biphasic effect whereas N-alpha-myristoyl-NPY(17-36) elicited only a stimulatory effect. These investigations suggest that: 1) the inhibitory and stimulatory effects of NPY(17-36) are mediated by high affinity NPY receptors coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein and a distinct population of low affinity receptors coupled to a cholera toxin-sensitive G protein, respectively; and 2) the stimulatory effect of NPY(17-36) is dissociable. 相似文献

Increased sensitivity of fat cell adenylate cyclase to stimulatory agonists during fasting is not related to impaired inhibitory coupling system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In rat adipocytes, inhibition of the forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP response by nicotinic acid and N6-phenylisopropyladenosine was unaltered by a 72 h fasting. Under assay conditions favouring inhibition, basal and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase responses to inhibition by GTP and nicotinic acid were also unimpaired by fasting. Under the same conditions, however, low GTP concentrations elicited a clear activatory effect in membranes from fasted but not from fed rats. Fasting failed to alter the incorporation of [32P]ADP ribose into the alpha i-subunit of Ni and the attenuation of nicotinic acid inhibitory action that are both induced by pertussis toxin. These results, demonstrating unimpaired inhibitory control of adenylate cyclase in starved rat adipocytes, suggest that the permissive effect of fasting on the action of stimulatory receptor agonists in fat cells reflects a specific increase in the activity of the adenylate cyclase stimulatory coupling system. 相似文献

The effect of pertussis toxin treatment was studied on the inhibitory effect of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on adenylate cyclase activity in rat aorta. The incubation of rat aorta washed particles with pertussis toxin and [alpha-32P]NAD resulted in the ADP-ribosylation of a single 40-kDa protein. In addition, pertussis toxin treatment enhanced guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) and isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities and attenuated the ANF-mediated inhibition of basal, isoproterenol-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. These data suggest that ANF receptors are coupled to adenylate cyclase through inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein. 相似文献

Ethanol alters the adenosine receptor-Ni-mediated adenylate cyclase inhibitory response in rat brain cortex in vitro 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It has been suggested that ethanol stimulates adenylate cyclase in vitro through an increased function of Ns, the activatory component of adenylate cyclase. Because of the interaction of Ns with Ni, the adenylate cyclase inhibitory component, we have studied the effect of ethanol (0.05-0.2 M) on Ni-mediated adenylate cyclase inhibition caused by the adenosine analog N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (N6-PIA) in brain cortical membranes. Ethanol did not alter N6-PIA binding to the adenosine Ri-receptors, stimulated slightly basal adenylate cyclase activity but abolished adenylate cyclase inhibition due to N6-PIA, suggesting an effect of ethanol on the inhibitory coupling pathway. This was further supported by loss of the adenylate cyclase inhibitory response to GTP (greater than 10(-5) M). It thus seems that, besides its effect on the Ns system, ethanol may also impair Ni-mediated adenylate cyclase responses in rat cerebral cortex. 相似文献

It has been shown that serine proteases are involved in aldosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone production by the rat adrenal zona glomerulosa in response to a variety of stimulants. From evidence presented for various tissues, including the rat adrenal cortex, the observation that adenylate cyclase can be activated by proteolytic enzymes and inhibited by protease inhibitors has led to the suggestion that serine proteases may also be involved in the hormonal stimulation of adenylate cyclase. In studies designed to test this hypothesis using protease inhibitors, only high concentrations (greater than 10(-4) M) of TAME (p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester) inhibited ACTH stimulated steroid and cAMP production in rat adrenal glomerulosa cells. TPCK (tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethylketone) and TLCK (tosyl-L-lysine chloromethylketone) were found to have a similar effect at very high concentrations (10(-2) M) but had no effect at the serine protease inhibitory concentration of 5 X 10(-6) M. Other protease inhibitors tested had no effect on ACTH-stimulated cAMP but the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of protease inhibitors on ACTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase was duplicated by the polyanion dextran sulphate. The results suggest that the inhibitors act through non-specific membrane effects and that proteases are not involved in the activation of zona glomerulosa adenylate cyclase by ACTH. In view of these findings it is concluded that a more rigorous approach should be applied to the use of protease inhibitors in whole cell systems, and that the concept of hormonal activation of adenylate cyclase via proteolytic events, which is based on studies with such inhibitors, should be reconsidered. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies to the thyrotropin receptor bind to a 56-kDa subunit of the thyrotropin receptor and show heterogeneous bioactivities 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Four monoclonal antibodies to the thyrotropin (TSH) receptor were established by fusing human peripheral lymphocytes of patients from Graves' disease with a human myeloma cell line. Of two antibodies with TSH-binding inhibitory immunoglobulin activity (TBII), one inhibited TSH stimulation of adenylate cyclase and another stimulated adenylate cyclase. These antibodies showed competitive and noncompetitive modes of binding inhibition, respectively. Of the other two antibodies without TBII activity, one stimulated adenylate cyclase and the other inhibited TSH stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Of the two antibodies, which inhibited TSH stimulation of adenylate cyclase, one with TBII activity inhibited stimulation of adenylate cyclase by stimulating antibody with TBII activity, but another without TBII activity inhibited stimulation by both stimulating antibodies with or without TBII activity. These inhibitory antibodies did not influence the stimulation of adenylate cyclase by Forskolin and guanosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate compounds which are known to affect other parts of the receptor-adenylate cyclase system than the receptor unit. Four antibodies with heterogeneous potencies to the TSH receptor reacted with glycoproteins extracted from thyroid membranes. One stimulating antibody without TBII activity also interacted with the glycolipid fraction of the membrane preparation, and the binding decreased after desialylation or deglycosylation of the membrane components. In order to identify the binding sites of these monoclonal antibodies, receptor proteins interacting with antibodies were visualized by Western blot analysis and by the label transfer cross-linking method. All of these antibodies with different characteristics reacted with a 56-kDa molecule. 相似文献

Modulation of adenylate cyclase activity of fibroblasts by free fatty acids and phospholipids 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effect of certain lipids on adenylate cyclase activity [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] from fibroblasts in culture has been investigated. The unsaturated fatty acids, as well as lysolecithin, were found to act as potent inhibitors of fibroblast adenylate cyclase activity. Increasing the degree of unsaturation increases the extent of inhibition noted at a given fatty acid concentration. The inhibitory effect of the unsaturated fatty acids or lysolecithin is not selective for a specific function of the adenylate cyclase system since basal, and hormone- or fluoride-stimulated cyclase activities are inhibited to the same extent. The fatty acid-inactivated state of fibroblast adenylate cyclase is not readily reversed for enzyme activity is not restored when arachidonate-treated membranes are washed with Tris buffer containing 10 mm EDTA, 0.15 mm albumin, or 0.15 m KCl. Previous studies have shown that the adenylate cyclase system from Moloney sarcoma virus-transformed NRK (MNRK) cells is not stimulated by the addition of GTP or hormones. Of interest is the present finding that the addition of unsaturated fatty acids, or lysolecithin, over a narrow concentration range (0.1 – 0.2 mm) leads to partial restoration of GTP activation of MNRK cyclase activity. Hormonal responsiveness to l-epinephrine or prostaglandin E1 is not restored to the MNRK enzyme with fatty acid or lysolecithin treatment. 相似文献

Muscarinic agonists inhibit cyclic AMP (cAMP)-induced phosphorylation of the cardiac protein phospholamban. The mechanism of this muscarinic inhibition of phosphorylation of phospholamban appears to occur at more than one level in the series of reactions comprising the adenylate cyclase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase system. Muscarinic agonists attenuate hormone and drug stimulation of cardiac adenylate cyclase. This results in reduced tissue levels of cAMP and diminished phosphorylation of cardiac proteins and consequent inhibition of biochemical and inotropic effects of drugs that act via cAMP. The mechanism of muscarinic inhibition of adenylate cyclase is only partially understood, but probably involves the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein. In addition to the inhibition of adenylate cyclase, muscarinic agonists appear to be able to inhibit the effects of cAMP. The mechanism for this second effect of muscarinic agonists is unknown. 相似文献

Polyamines (spermidine, spermine and putrescine) inhibited the adenylate cyclase activity in a concentration dependent manner in human erythrocyte plasma membranes. Spermidine (Spd) exhibited more inhibitory effect than spermine (Spm) and putrescine (Put). On the contrary, the addition of amino acids (arginine, glutamine and lysine) did not influence the basal enzyme activity. Other cations (polylysine, polyarginine and polyglutamine) also did not affect the enzyme activity. Addition of all the three polyamines (Spd, Spm and Put) in the reaction mixture exhibited moderate inhibitory effect on the adenylate cyclase activity whether it was basal or activated with sodium fluoride or with forskolin. Since the three polyamines exhibited maximum inhibitory effect at 10 microM concentration which is within physiological limit for mammalian tissues, we suggest that there may be a regulatory function of these molecules on adenylate cyclase activity in human erythrocytes. 相似文献
