The stimulations of ureagenesis and cyclic AMP accumulation induced by glucagon were inhibited by 10 nM vasopressin or 100 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). The maximal accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon was clearly diminished by these agents without change in the EC50 for the peptide hormone suggesting a non-competitive type of inhibition. H-7 blocked the inhibition of glucagon-stimulated ureagenesis induced by PMA and vasopressin and diminished their effect on the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon. It is concluded that activation of protein kinase C inhibits the stimulation of ureagenesis and the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon in liver cells from hypothyroid rats; H-7 inhibits the effects of protein kinase C activation.  相似文献

In hepatocytes obtained from hypothyroid rats, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and vasopressin diminished the accumulation of cyclic AMP and the stimulation of ureagenesis induced by isoprenaline or glucagon without altering significantly the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by forskolin. Pretreatment with PMA markedly reduced the stimulation of ureagenesis and the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by isoprenaline or glucagon. In membranes from cells pretreated with PMA, the stimulation of adenylate cyclase induced by isoprenaline + GTP, glucagon + GTP or by Gpp[NH]p were clearly diminished as compared to the control, whereas forskolin-stimulated activity was not affected. The data indicate heterologous desensitization of adenylate cyclase. It was also observed that the homologous (García-Sáinz J.A. and Michel, B. (1987) Biochem. J. 246, 331-336) and this heterologous beta-adrenergic desensitizations were additive. Pertussis toxin treatment markedly reduced the heterologous desensitization of adenylate cyclase but not the homologous beta-adrenergic desensitization. It is concluded that the homologous and heterologous desensitizations involve different mechanisms. The homologous desensitization seems to occur at the receptor level, whereas the heterologous probably involves the guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein, Ns.  相似文献

[1-Nα-Trinitrophenylhistidine, 12-homoarginine]glucagon (THG) stimulated, in a concentration-dependent fashion, lipolysis (2-fold) and cyclic AMP accumulation (50% over basal) in isolated rat adipocytes, but was much less effective than glucagon, which stimulated lipolysis 4-fold and cyclic AMP accumulation 10–15-fold. THG displaced to the right the concentration-response curves for glucagon and diminished in a concentration-dependent fashion the effects of a fixed concentration of glucagon. The data indicate that THG is a mixed agonist-antagonist (partial agonist) in isolated rat fat cells.  相似文献

Hepatocytes were isolated from rats and then loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator quin2. Glucagon caused a sustained increase (at least 5 min) in the fluorescence of the quin2-loaded cells; the increase was much greater than that observed with control, non-quin2-loaded, cells. These observations indicate that glucagon caused an increase in cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]c). The effects of glucagon were mimicked if forskolin (to activate adenylate cyclase), dibutyryl cyclic AMP or bromo cyclic AMP were added directly to the cells. Thus an increase in cyclic AMP concentration may mediate the effect of glucagon on [Ca2+]c. If 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; an activator of protein kinase C) was added to the cells before glucagon, the magnitude of the increase in [Ca2+]c was greatly diminished. If PMA was added after glucagon it caused a lowering of [Ca2+]c. These effects of PMA on the glucagon-induced increase in [Ca2+]c could not be mimicked if [Ca2+]c was increased by the Ca2+-ionophore ionomycin. Thus an event involved in the mechanism by which glucagon increases [Ca2+]c appears to be required for the action of PMA. If [Ca2+]c was increased by forskolin, dibutyryl cyclic AMP or bromo cyclic AMP, the effect of PMA on [Ca2+]c was similar to that observed when glucagon was used to elevate [Ca2+]c. When [Ca2+]c was raised by dibutyryl cyclic AMP the presence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine did not prevent the subsequent addition of PMA from causing [Ca2+]c to decrease. These observations suggest that PMA can inhibit the cyclic AMP-induced increase in [Ca2+]c independently of any changes in cyclic AMP concentration. Glucagon appears to increase [Ca2+]c by releasing intracellular stores of Ca2+ and stimulating net influx of Ca2+ into the cell; PMA greatly diminishes both of these effects.  相似文献

Hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats have a marked beta-adrenergic responsiveness. Preincubation of these hepatocytes with isoprenaline induced a time-dependent and concentration-dependent desensitization of the beta-adrenergic responsiveness without altering that to glucagon (homologous desensitization). The desensitization was evidenced both in the cyclic AMP accumulation and in the stimulation of ureagenesis induced by the beta-adrenergic agonists. Under the same conditions, preincubation with glucagon induced no desensitization. Propranolol was also unable to induce desensitization, but blocked that induced by isoprenaline. Pertussis-toxin treatment did not alter the homologous beta-adrenergic desensitization induced by isoprenaline.  相似文献

The effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) on the hormonal responsiveness of hepatocytes from lean and obese Zucker rats was studied. Phenylephrine-stimulated phosphatydylinositol labeling and phosphorylase activation were antagonized by PMA in cells from obese and lean animals; bigger residual effects were observed in cells from obese animals even at high PMA concentrations. Cyclic AMP accumulation induced by isoproterenol, glucagon, forskolin and cholera toxin was higher in cells from lean animals than in those from obese rats. PMA diminished glucagon- and cholera toxin-induced cyclic AMP accumulation; cells from lean animals were more sensitive to PMA. Two groups of isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC) were observed in hepatocytes from Zucker rats using DEAE-cellulose column chromatography: PKC 1 and PKC 2. The PKC 1 isozymes were separated into four peaks using hydroxylapatite: aa, 1a (PKC-beta), 1b (PKC-alpha) and 1c. Short treatment with PMA decreased the activity of PKC 1 (peaks 1b (PKC-alpha) and 1c) and to a lesser extent of PKC 2; cells from lean animals were more sensitive to PMA than those obtained from obese rats. Our results indicate that cells from genetically obese Zucker rats are in general less sensitive to this activator of protein kinase C than those from their lean littermates. The possibility that alterations in the phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cycles, that control metabolism and hormonal responsiveness, may contribute to this obese state is suggested.  相似文献

Activation of glycogen phosphorylase by hormones was examined in hepatocytes isolated from euthyroid and hypothyroid female rats and incubated by Ca2+-free buffer containing 1 mM-EGTA. Basal glycogen phosphorylase activity was decreased in Ca2+-free buffer. However, the activation of hepatocyte glycogen phosphorylase, in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, in response to adrenaline, glucagon or phenylephrine was slightly lower, whereas that by vasopressin was abolished. The activation of glycogen phosphorylase by phenylephrine, adrenaline or isoproterenol (isoprenaline) in hepatocytes from euthyroid rats incubated in the absence of Ca2+ was not accompanied by any detectable increase in total cyclic AMP. The log-dose/response curves for activation of phosphorylase by phenylephrine or low concentrations of adrenaline were the same in hepatocytes from hypothyroid as compared wit euthyroid rats, whereas the response to isoproterenol was greater in hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats. However, the increases in total cyclic AMP accumulation caused by adrenaline or isoproterenol were greater in hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats than in hepatocytes from euthyroid rats. The increases in cyclic AMP accumulation caused by adrenaline or isoproterenol in Ca2+-depleted hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats were blocked by propranolol, a beta-adrenergic antagonist. In contrast, propranolol was only partially effective asan inhibitor of the activation of glycogen phosphorylase by phenylephrine or adrenaline in hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats and ineffective on phosphorylase activation in cells from euthyroid rats. These data indicate that the alpha-adrenergic activation of glycogen phosphorylase is not affected by the absence of extracellular Ca2+, and the extent to which total cyclic AMP was increased by adrenergic amines did not correlate with glycogen phosphorylase activation.  相似文献

Evidence is presented that modulation of the maximum velocity of a particulate low K-m cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) phosphodiesterase by thyroid hormones is one mechanism for the regulation of the responsiveness of rat epididymal adipocytes to lipolytic agents such as epinephrine and glucagon. Fat cells of propylthiouracil-induced hypothyroid rats are unresponsive to lipolytic agents and the V-max of particulate low K-m cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase of these cells is elevated above normal. In vivo treatment of hypothyroid rats with triiodothyronine restores to control values both the lipolytic response of the fat cells to epinephrine and the V-max of the particulate bound low K-m cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. No similar correlation is found with the soluble high K-m cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. The phosphodiesterases of fat cells from normal and hypothyroid rats respond identically in vitro to propylthiouracil, triiodothyronine, methylisobutylxanthine, or theophylline, although the particulate low K-m cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase is inhibited to a greater extent than soluble cyclic guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterase activity. Protein kinase of fat cells from hypothyroid rats can be stimulated by cyclic AMP to the same total activity as observed in fat cells of normal rats. However, less of the protein kinase in fat cells from hypothyroid rats was in the cyclic AMP-independent form. This shift in the equilibrium of protein kinase forms is consistent with an increased activity of low K-m cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and probably results from a lowering of the lipolytically significant pool of cyclic AMP.  相似文献

Activation of protein kinase C blocks the alpha 1-adrenergic action in hepatocytes. Preincubation of hepatocytes (in buffer with or without calcium) with vasopressin, angiotensin II, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or epinephrine + propranolol markedly diminished the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells (stimulation of ureagenesis) assayed in buffer without calcium. On the contrary, when the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness was assayed in buffer containing calcium no effect of the preincubation with vasopressin, angiotensin II or PMA was observed. Preincubation with epinephrine diminished the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells. In hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats the preincubation with the activators of protein kinase C (vasopressin, angiotensin II, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and epinephrine) reduced markedly the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells, whereas in identical experiments using cells from adrenalectomized rats only the preincubation with epinephrine diminished the responsiveness. It is concluded that activation of protein kinase C induces desensitization of the alpha 1-adrenergic action in hepatocytes and that the calcium-independent pathway of the alpha 1-adrenergic action (predominant in cells from hypothyroid animals) resensitizes more slowly than the calcium-dependent pathway (predominant in cells from adrenalectomized rats). Epinephrine in addition to inducing this type of desensitization (through protein kinase C) leads to a further refractoriness of the cells towards alpha 1-adrenergic agonists.  相似文献

Insulin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) inhibit the stimulation of ureagenesis induced by adrenaline (alpha 1-adrenergic effect) in hepatocytes from control rats incubated in medium without calcium and in cells from hypothyroid rats. In hepatocytes from euthyroid rats incubated in normal buffer neither insulin or EGF diminished the alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation of ureagenesis. No effect of EGF or insulin on the alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation of phosphatidylinositol labeling was observed under any conditions. It is suggested that EGF mimics the action of insulin on one of the pathways of the alpha 1-adrenergic action: the calcium-independent, insulin-sensitive pathway which predominates in hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats.  相似文献

The actions of hormones which are associated to cAMP-dependent and calcium-dependent mechanisms of signal transduction were studied in hepatocytes obtained from rats with different thyroid states. In cells from euthyroid and hyperthyroid rats, the metabolic actions of epinephrine were mediated mainly through alpha 1-adrenoceptors; beta-adrenoceptors seem to be functionally unimportant. In contrast, both alpha 1- and beta-adrenoceptors mediate the actions of epinephrine in hepatocytes from hypothyroid animals. Phosphatidylinositol labeling was strongly stimulated by epinephrine, vasopressin and angiotensin II in cells from eu-, hyper- or hypothyroid rats. However, metabolic responsiveness to vasopressin and angiotensin II was markedly impaired in the hypothyroid state. The glycogenolytic response to the calcium ionophore A-23187 was also impaired, suggesting that hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats are less sensitive to calcium signalling. The persistence of alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness in the hypothyroid state suggests that the mechanism of signal transduction for alpha 1-adrenergic amines is not identical to that of the vasopressor peptides. alpha 1-Adrenergic stimulation of cyclic AMP accumulation was not detected in cells from hypothyroid rats. These data suggest that factors besides calcium and besides cAMP are probably involved in alpha 1-adrenergic actions. Metabolic responses to glucagon and to the cAMP analogue dibutyryl cAMP were not markedly changed during hypothyroidism, although cAMP accumulation produced by glucagon and beta-adrenergic agonists was enhanced. In hyperthyroidism, cell responsiveness to epinephrine, vasopressin, angiotensin II and glucagon was decreased, but sensitivity to cAMP was not markedly altered. The factors involved in this hyposensitivity to hormones during hyperthyroidism are unclear.  相似文献

Treatment of intact hepatocytes with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) potentiated the ability of glucagon to increase intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations. This effect was dose-dependent upon TPA, exhibiting an EC50 of 0.39 ng/ml and such activation was observed at both saturating and sub-saturating concentrations of glucagon. However, this stimulatory effect of TPA was completely abolished by the presence of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor 1-isobutyl-3-methylxanthine, when TPA now inhibited the glucagon-stimulated increase in intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations. It is suggested that, as well as inhibiting glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, TPA also inhibits cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity in intact hepatocytes. Treatment of either hepatocyte homogenates or purified cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase with TPA failed to show any direct inhibitory effect of TPA on activity showing that TPA did not exert any direct inhibitory action on phosphodiesterase activity. However, homogenates made from hepatocytes that had been pre-treated with TPA did show a reduced cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. It is suggested that TPA might inhibit cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity through phosphorylation by C-kinase.  相似文献

In cultured porcine thyroid cells, during 60 min incubation phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) had no effect on basal cyclic AMP accumulation and slightly stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation evoked by thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) or forskolin. Cholera toxin-induced cyclic AMP accumulation was significantly stimulated by PMA. On the other hand, cyclic AMP accumulation evoked by prostaglandin E1 or E2 (PGE1 or PGE2) was markedly depressed by simultaneous addition of PMA. These opposing effects of PMA on cyclic AMP accumulation evoked by PGE and cholera toxin were observed in a dose-related fashion, with half-maximal effect of around 10(-9) M in either case. The almost same effects of PMA on cyclic AMP accumulation in basal and stimulated conditions were also observed in freshly prepared thyroid cells. The present study was performed in the presence of phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 3-iso-butyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), indicating that PMA affected adenylate cyclase activity. Therefore, it is suggested that PMA may modulate the production of cyclic AMP in response to different stimuli, possibly by affecting several sites in the adenylate cyclase complex in thyroid cells.  相似文献

Nalpha-Trinitrophenyl glucagon was prepared by reaction with trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid and purified by ion-exchange chromatography. This derivative has essentially no ability to activate adenylate cyclase from rat liver nor to increase the levels of cyclic AMP in isolated hepatocytes nor to stimulate protein kinase activity. This derivative also can act as a glucagon antagonist with regard to cyclic AMP production and can decrease the degree of stimulation of adenylate cyclase caused by glucagon, as well as lowering the glucagon-stimulated elevation of cyclic AMP levels in intact hepatocytes. Nevertheless, this derivative is capable of activating glycogenolysis in isolated hepatocytes and in augmenting the effect of glucagon on glycogenolysis. This metabolic effect of the glucagon derivative thus appears to occur independent of changes in cyclic AMP levels. These results suggest that glucagon can also activate glycogenolysis by a cyclic AM-independent process.  相似文献

Treatment of intact hepatocytes with glucagon led to the rapid desensitization of adenylate cyclase, which reached a maximum around 5 min after application of glucagon, after which resensitization ensued. Complete resensitization occurred some 20 min after the addition of glucagon. In hepatocytes which had been preincubated with the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), glucagon elicited a stable desensitized state where resensitization failed to occur even 20 min after exposure of hepatocytes to glucagon. Treatment with IBMX alone did not elicit desensitization. The action of IBMX in stabilizing the glucagon-mediated desensitized state was mimicked by the non-methylxanthine cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor Ro-20-1724 [4-(3-butoxy-4-methoxylbenzyl)-2-imidazolidinone]. IBMX inhibited the resensitization process in a dose-dependent fashion with an EC50 (concn. giving 50% of maximal effect) of 26 +/- 5 microM, which was similar to the EC50 value of 22 +/- 6 microM observed for the ability of IBMX to augment the glucagon-stimulated rise in intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations. Pre-treatment of hepatocytes with IBMX did not alter the ability of either angiotensin or the glucagon analogue TH-glucagon, ligands which did not increase intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations, to cause the rapid desensitization and subsequent resensitization of adenylate cyclase. It is suggested that, although desensitization of glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase is elicited by a cyclic AMP-independent process, the resensitization of adenylate cyclase can be inhibited by a process which is dependent on elevated cyclic AMP concentrations. This action can be detected by attenuating the degradation of cyclic AMP by using inhibitors of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase.  相似文献

The stimulation of phenylalanine hydroxylation in isolated liver cells by sub-maximally effective concentrations of glucagon (less than 0.1 microM) is antagonized by insulin (0.1 nM-0.1 microM). This phenomenon is a consequence of a decrease in the glucagon-stimulated phosphorylation of phenylalanine hydroxylase from liver cells incubated in the presence of insulin. The impact of insulin on the phosphorylation state and activity of the hydroxylase is mimicked by incubation of liver cells in the presence of orthovanadate (10 microM). A series of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP analogues enhanced phenylalanine hydroxylation: in each case insulin diminished the stimulation of flux. These results are discussed in the light of the characteristics of insulin action on other metabolic processes.  相似文献

Although the cylo-oxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism inhibits glucose-stimulatedinsulin release throught synthesis of prostaglandins, very little attention has been given to the effects of lipoxygenase pathway products on beta cell function. We have examined the effects of two structurally-dissimilar lipoxygenase inhibitors on insulin release from mono-layer-cultured rat islet cell. Both nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA, 20–50 μM) and BW755c (100–250μM) caused a dose-responsive inhibition of glucose-induced insulin release. This inhibitory effect occurred despite concomitant inhibition of prostaglandin E synthesis. Lipoxygenase inhibitors also impeded cyclic AMP accumulation. Insulin and cyclic AMP release induced by glucagon were also blunted. These studies suggest the hypothesis that AA released in or near the beta cell is metabolized to lipoxygenase product(s) which have feed-forward properties important to glucose- and glucagon-stimulated cyclic nucleotide accumulation and insulin release.  相似文献

Adipocytes from hypothyroid rats have a decreased responsiveness to agents that activate adenylate cyclase, whereas cells from hyperthyroid rats have an increased responsiveness as compared to the controls. This is reflected in cyclic AMP accumulation as well as lipolysis. Administration of pertussis toxin to rats or its in vitro addition to adipocytes increased basal lipolysis and cyclic AMP accumulation as well as the response to norepinephrine or forskolin. The effects of thyroid status was not abolished by toxin treatment. Pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP ribosylation of Ni was increased in adipocyte membranes from hypothyroid rats as compared to those from euthyroid rats. However, no change in sensitivity to N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine was observed. The data suggest that the amount of Ni might not be rate-limiting for the inhibitory action of adenosine. A consistent decrease in maximal lipolysis was observed in freshly isolated adipocytes from hypothyroid animals as compared to those from the controls. Such defective maximal lipolysis was not corrected by adenosine deaminase or in vivo administration of pertussis toxin. The relationship between cyclic AMP levels and lipolysis suggests that in fat cells from hypothyroid rats either the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase or the lipase activity itself may limit maximal lipolysis. There appears to be multiple effects of thyroid status on lipolysis involving factors other than those affecting adenylate cyclase activation.  相似文献
