We have demonstrated translocation of HL-60 cell 5-lipoxygenase to a membrane compartment in response to both the calcium ionophore A23187 and the receptor-mediated stimulus, N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). In addition, we have shown inhibition of A23187- and fMLP-induced 5-lipoxygenase translocation by an indole and a quinoline leukotriene synthesis inhibitor, MK-886 and L-674,573, respectively. Selectivity of inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase translocation in both fMLP- or A23187-challenged cells is shown using the indole L-583,916 and quinoline L-671,480, which neither inhibit leukotriene synthesis nor inhibit 5-lipoxygenase translocation. The present study in HL-60 cells is the first demonstration of the selective inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase translocation by quinoline leukotriene synthesis inhibitors, exemplified by L-674,573. Also described here is the first demonstration of 5-lipoxygenase translocation and inhibition in response to a stimulus other than A23187, namely the receptor-mediated stimulus, fMLP. 相似文献

The divalent cation ionophore A 23187 was used to evaluate the action of intracellular calcium on net transepithelial water movement across the isolated frog urinary bladder. Incubation with the ionophore increases the net basal water flux in a dose-dependent fashion but independent of the extracellular calcium concentration. Bladders pretreated with A 23187 and exposed thereafter to an increase in calcium concentration exhibit a water permeability that under certain conditions can be comparable to that achieved with antidiuretic hormone (ADH). Lowering the serosal calcium at the peak of the hydrosmotic responses to both ADH and A 23187 inhibited the maintenance of the net water flux. The action of a supramaximal dose of ADH is blunted in bladders pretreated with A 23187, while the hydrosmotic effects of a submaximal dose are enhanced when the ionophore is added together with the hormone. The results show that an increase in transepithelial water movement can be triggered by calcium and that serosal calcium is needed to sustain the response. This hydrosmotic response may be dependent upon the rate at which intracellular calcium concentrations change and on the absolute concentration attained. It is suggested that calcium is involved in the action of ADH on water permeability and may act as a modulator of the hydrosmotic response. 相似文献

Extracts of pancreatic islets stimulate the translocation of calcium from an aqueous into an organic immiscible phase. This ionophoretic activity, which is derived mainly from membrane-rich subcellular fractions, displays several features in common with that of A23187 in the same model. The phenomenon of calcium translocation caused by either the islet extract or the antibiotic ionophore represents a power function of the concentration of ionophoretic material; it is saturable at high calcium concentrations, affected by the concentration of Na+ and pH of the aqueous phase, increased at low temperature, and inhibited by suloctidil, the latter inhibitory effect being antagonized by calcium itself. These findings underline the potential significance of native ionophores in the regulation of calcium movements across membrane systems in the islet cells. 相似文献

Bovine rod outer segments (rods), isolated with an intact plasma membrane and a stable calcium exchange and storage capacity, contain 2-3 mol endogenous calcium/mol rhodopsin. By means of 45Ca accumulation experiments and concomitant 40Ca analysis, the calcium metabolism of these organelles has been studied with the following results: 1. The majority of endogenous calcium is localized within disks. 2. In the presence of the ionophore A23187 the intradiskal binding sites can be titrated with external calcium. 3. The Scatchard plot of calcium binding of rods indicates the presence of a single set of intradiskal binding sites with a maximal capacity of 8-9 mol calcium/mol rhodopsin and an affinity constant of 55 microM to calcium. 4. Without A23187 more than 99% of the rod calcium appears in a bound state in equilibrium with a free calcium concentration of 15-25 microM. 5. External calcium exchanges with endogenous calcium in a fast (t 1/2 = 12 s) process with a uniform rate constant, whereas net calcium transport is very slow (t 1/2 greater than 2 h). 6. Intact rods contain a calcium translocation system, presumably located in the plasma membrane, which performs Ca-Ca exchange with a high unidirectional flux of 2 . 10(6) calcium ions/rod per s. 7. This translocation system can be saturated by external calcium (Km = 0.5 -1 microM) and has a low Q10 (1.08). Both the calcium translocation system and the calcium binding system appear to depend on the structural integrity of the stacked disks and are very sensitive to the experimental conditions. The relevance of these findings is discussed in relation to the proposed role of calcium ions as the intracellular transmitter in vertebrate rod photoreceptor cells. 相似文献

Sodium inhibits in a dose-related fashion the translocation of calcium from an aqueous milieu into an organic phase containing the divalent-cation ionophore A23187. This inhibitory effect is reproduced by other monovalent cations, modulated by the nature of the anion in the sodium halide, and inversely related to the absolute amount of calcium translocated. The inhibitory effect cannot be attributed to a change in osmolarity or ionic strength, to sequestration of the ionophoretic molecule at the interface between the aqueous and organic phases, or to translocation of sodium or chloride. These findings indicate that sodium may directly affect the handling of calcium by ionophoretic systems specifically mediating the transport of divalent cations. 相似文献

We sought to investigate the mechanisms by which the calcium ionophore A23187 triggers arachidonic acid release in bovine pulmonary endothelial cells and to test the hypothesis that protein kinase C is involved in this process. Our results indicate that the mechanism by which A23187 increases phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release in bovine pulmonary arterial endothelial cells depends upon the concentration studied. At concentrations of 1 microM and 2.5 microM, A23187 increases phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release without stimulating protein kinase C. At concentrations of 5-12.5 microM, A23187 increases arachidonic acid release and phospholipase A2 activity in conjunction with a dose-dependent activation of membrane-bound protein kinase C. To test the hypothesis that these doses of A23187 increase phospholipase A2 activity by stimulating protein kinase C, we studied the effect of prior treatment with the protein kinase C inhibitor sphingosine. Sphingosine inhibits the increase in phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release caused by A23187 over the range 5-12.5 microM. To investigate further the potential role of protein kinase C, we studied the effects of the inactive phorbol ester 4 alpha-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (4 alpha-PMA) and an active phorbol ester 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (4 beta PMA). Neither 4 alpha-PMA nor 4 beta-PMA affected basal arachidonic acid release. 4 alpha-PMA also did not augment the effects of A23187. In contrast, 4 beta-PMA significantly augments the increase in phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release caused by lower doses of A23187. Under these conditions, sphingosine completely inhibits the stimulatory effects of 4 beta-PMA on protein kinase C translocation, phospholipase A2 and arachidonic acid release. Thus, at low doses (1 microM and 2.5 microM) A23187 increases phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release by a mechanism that does not involve protein kinase C. At these A23187 doses, activating membrane-bound protein kinase C with 4 beta-PMA causes a synergistic increase in phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release. At higher doses (5-12.5 microM), A23187 acts in large part by stimulating protein kinase C translocation. Overall, our results indicate that activating membrane-bound protein kinase C by itself is an insufficient stimulus to increase phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid release in pulmonary endothelial cells, but activating protein kinase C can substantially augment the increase in phospholipase A2 activity and arachidonic acid caused by a small increase in intracellular calcium. 相似文献

The role of ionized calcium in the early phases of activation of human peripheral blood lymphocytes was evaluated by stimulating the cells with a calcium ionophore A23187 (Lilly) or with mitogenic lections over a broad range of extracellular calcium concentrations (< 1 to > 1000 μM). A number of biochemical parameters shown previously to be altered during stimulation of these cells by mitogenic lectins were studied including: 1) amino acid transport, 2) phosphatidylinositol turnover, 3) cyclic nucleotide accumulation, and 4) calcium uptake. The ionophore (0.1–0.5 μg/ml) was shown to produce stimulatory effects in all of these systems with the changes closely simulating those produced by the lectins themselves both in regard to time course and magnitude. A23187 also produced 5–10 fold increases in DNA synthesis as measured at 48–72 hr after exposure of the cells to this agent. The responses to A23187 were shown to be almost completely dependent on the presence of ionized calcium. Since mitogenic lectins are known to stimulate calcium uptake and DNA synthesis appears to require extracellular calcium, the early responses to A23187 suggested that calcium was important both during the early and later phases of lymphocyte activation. However, short time course studies of amino acid transport, cyclic AMP accumulation, and phosphatidylinositol turnover in calcium deficient media failed to provide convincing evidence of calcium dependency in lectin stimulation since the three responses were well preserved (<25% inhibition) in “calcium free” medium containing 1–3 mM ethylene bis (ethylene oxynitrilo) tetraacetic acid (EGTA) (an estimated final Ca2+ concentration of <1 μM). Greater than 50% inhibition of the lectin response was seen only when the cells were incubated in calcium free, EGTA-containing medium for 30 min prior to stimulation with lectin. Thus despite the striking ability of A23187 complexed with calcium to mimic the action of mitogenic lectins, its effects may involve more than simple transport of calcium into the cell. A23187 may also exert a direct membrane action as suggested by its ability to produce rapid increases in cAMP and the occurrence of cytotoxicity at 5–10 fold higher concentrations (2–4 μg/ml). However, these data do not entirely exclude a mechanism of ionophore action whereby: 1) mobilization of intracellular stores of calcium and 2) diminished intracellular transport of ionized calcium at extracellular concentrations less than or equal to 1 μM combine to provide an effective stimulus for cellular activation. 相似文献

The mitogenic action of the divalent ionophore A23187 was confirmed and shown to be very sensitive to changes in extracellular calcium ion concentration. At optimal calcium and ionophore concentrations, an increase in [3H]-thymidine incorporation was seen that was similar to that seen after phytohemagglutinin addition. A calcium-dependent stimulation of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid transport was also seen after A23187 addition. Studies with three inhibitors demonstrate a similarity between proliferation induced by phytohemagglutinin and by A23187. Isoproterenol (10(-4) M) and ouabain (10(-7) M) blocked the effects of phytohemagglutinin and A23187. A drug, D-600 that has been shown to block calcium channels in cardiac muscle, inhibited proliferation induced by either phytohemagglutinin or A23187. This concentration of D600 had no effect on either phytohemagglutinin- or A23187-induced 45Ca2+ uptake. Furthermore, the (+) and (-) isomers separated from racemic D600, which have been shown to block sodium and calcium channels respectively in smooth muscle, had equal potency in blocking lymphocyte proliferation. 相似文献

Exposure of rabbit pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells to the calcium ionophore A23187, dose-dependently stimulates arachidonic acid (AA) release and phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, sphingosine does not prevents AA release and PLA2 activity caused by low doses of A23187. In contrast, sphingosine markedly prevents AA release and PLA2 activity caused by higher doses of A23187. PKC activity profile indicates that treatment of the cells with low doses of A23187 does not cause significant alteration of PKC translocation from cytosol to membrane whereas higher concentrations of the ionophore dose-dependently enhance PKC translocation from cytosol to membrane in the smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

The effect of Ca-ionophore A23187 on activation of rat blood platelets was investigated to elucidate the involvement of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ ions. Platelet aggregation induced by 10 concentrations of the stimulus was studied in Ca-free medium as well as in the presence of EGTA and/or calcium. In Ca-free medium, A23187 induced platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent way; the mean effective concentration was 1.43 +/- 0.08 mumol/l. The stimulatory effect of ionophore was potentiated by addition of 0.01 and 0.1 mM calcium and inhibited when the calcium concentration was increased to 1 mmol/l. In the presence of EGTA, A23187-stimulated aggregation of isolated rat platelets was recorded only at a 10-times higher ionophore concentration and was then reduced to 30% in comparison with aggregation in Ca-free medium. The inhibitory effect of 1 mM EGTA was abolished by addition of 2 mM calcium. We suggest the participation of at least three calcium pools in the stimulation of rat platelets by A23187, i.e. the extracellular pool, the membrane-associated pool and the pool displacing calcium intracellularly. 相似文献

Three aspects of the calcium hypothesis we have proposed previously [Metcalfe, Pozzan, Smith & Hesketh (1980) Biochem. Soc. Symp. 45, 1-26] for the control of mitogenic stimulation of lymphocytes are examined in studies on the mitogenic action of the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 and its effect on cap formation. (1) Pig lymphocytes that were mitogenically stimulated by continuous incubation with 3H-labelled A23187 for 48 h contained between 3 and 15 amol of ionophore per cell. Lymphocytes exposed to 3H-labelled A23187 for 2h before washing the cells and resuspending them in ionophore-free medium were only stimulated mitogenically at 48h if the residual ionophore associated with the cells after washing was in the concentration range 3-15 amol per cell. When the cells were washed repeatedly after 2h incubation with ionophore to reduce the cell-associated ionophore below the critical concentration range, no mitogenic stimulation occurred as a result of short-term exposure to any ionophore concentration. Re-addition of ionophore to within the indicated range of cell-associated concentrations restored mitogenic stimulation at 48h. We conclude that large, short-term Ca2+ fluxes into the cells induced by the ionophore cannot generate a mitogenic signal that commits the cells to enter the cell cycle. (2) Further experiments with the ionophore showed that detectable mitogenic stimulation at 48h required a minimum of 3h exposure to optimal ionophore concentrations, and that maximal stimulation required at least 20h exposure. This is consistent with the view that a prolonged increase in the free cytoplasmic calcium concentration is required to stimulate the maximum proportion of the cells into the cell cycle. (3) Mouse splenic lymphocytes treated for short periods with very high ionophore concentrations (30 microM) in the presence of various external Ca2+ concentrations showed significant inhibition of cap formation of surface immunoglobulin receptors in the range 1-10 microM-Ca2+ in normal or depolarizing medium. We conclude that mitogens at optimal concentrations for the stimulation of lymphocytes do not cause any early increase in the free cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration above 10 microM. 相似文献

Incubation of hamster isolated fat cells with the ionophore A23187 and calcium for 20 minutes caused 30-40% increases in the cyclic 3':5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.17) activity of adipocyte homogenates when either 0.6 micron cyclic AMP or 0.6 micron cyclic GMP was the enzyme substrate. The stimulation of adipocyte cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity by A23187 and calcium was not antagonized by the adrenergic receptor blocking agents phentolamine and propranolol. The changes in enzyme activity produced by the ionophore and calcium were not associated with elevated intracellular cyclic AMP levels. Furthermore, A23187 and calcium acted to enhance adipocyte phosphodiesterase activity before, but not after, homogenization of the fat cells. These data suggest that the phosphodiesterase activity of hamster isolated fat cells may, at least in part, be regulated by fluctuations in intracellular calcium concentrations. 相似文献

The addition of the calcium ionophore A23187 to rabbit neutrophils increases the amount of actin associated with the cytoskeleton regardless of the presence or absence of calcium in the incubation medium. In the presence of extracellular calcium, the effect of A23187 is biphasic with respect to concentration. The action of the ionophore is rapid, transient, and is inhibited by pertussis toxin, hyperosmolarity, and quinacrine. On the other hand, the addition of pertussis toxin or hyperosmolarity has small if any, effect on the rise in intracellular calcium produced by A23187. While quinacrine does not affect the fMet-Leu-Phe-induced increase in cytoskeletal actin and the polyphosphoinositide turnover, its addition inhibits completely the stimulated increase in Ca-influx produced by the same stimulus. The results presented here suggest that a rise in the intracellular concentration of free calcium is neither necessary nor sufficient for the stimulated increase in cytoskeletal-associated actin. A possible relationship between the lipid remodeling stimulated by chemoattractants and the increased cytoskeletal actin is discussed. 相似文献

Low concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions have been shown to influence microtubule assembly in vitro. To test whether these cations also have an effect on microtubules in vivo, specimens of Actinosphaerium eichhorni were exposed to different concentrations of Ca++ and Mg++ and the divalent cation ionophore . Experimental degradation and reformation of axopodia were studied by light and electron microscopy. In the presence of Ca++ and the ionophore axopodia gradually shorten, the rate of shortening depending on the concentrations of Ca++ and the ionophore used. Retraction of axopodia was observed with a concentration of Ca++ as low as 0.01 mM. After transfer to a Ca++-free solution containing EGTA, axopodia re-extend; the initial length is reached after about 2 h. Likewise, reformation of axopodia of cold-treated organisms is observed only in solutions of EGTA or Mg++, whereas it is completely inhibited in a Ca++ solution. Electron microscope studies demonstrate degradation of the axonemal microtubular array in organisms treated with Ca++ and A23187. No alteration was observed in organisms treated with Mg++ or EGTA plus ionophore. The results suggest that, in the presence of the ionophore, formation of axonemal microtubules can be regulated by varying the Ca++ concentration in the medium. Since A23187 tends to equilibrate the concentrations of divalent cations between external medium and cell interior, it is likely that microtubule formation invivo is influenced by micromolar concentrations of Ca++. These concentrations are low enough to be of physiological significance for a role in the regulation of microtubule assembly in vivo. A23187相似文献

In dispersed rat thymocytes neither basal alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx nor influx stimulated by insulin, prostaglandin theophylline, or butyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) depended on extracellular calcium or magnesium. The divalent cation ionophore A23187 inhibited both basal and stimulated alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx. The extent to which influx was inhibited depended on ionophore concentration, extracellular calcium concentration, and time but did not depend on extracellular magnesium. Significant inhibition could be detected at an ionophore concentration of 1 muM and maximal inhibition occurred with 6 muM A23187. A23187 increased cellular uptake of calcium and there was good agred calcium uptake and that for ionophore inhibition of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx. Incubating cells with A23187 and then adding ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N',-tetraacetic acid completely reversed ionophore-stimulated cellular calcum uptake but did not reverse inhibition of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx. Thus, A23187 produces irreversible inhibition of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid transport in dispersed rat thymocytes. Ethanol abolished insulin-stimulated alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx but did not alter basal influx or that stimulated by prostaglandin E1, theophylline, or N6,O2'-dibutyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate. Inhibition could be detected with 0.2% (v/v) ethanol and insulin-stimulated alpha-aminoisobutyric influx was abolished with 1% ethanol. The effect of ethanol occurred immediately and could be reversed completely. This ability of ethanol to inhibit selectively insulin-stimulated alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx indicates that the mechanism through which insulin stimulates alpha-aminoisobutyric acid influx is functionally distinct from the stimulation produced by cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Chromosome studies were done on 7 patients with chronic T cell leukemia. Their lymphocytes responded in culture to one or more T cell mitogens: PHA, Con A, or the calcium ionophore A23187. Clones of cytogenetically-abnormal cells were present in all seven patients, but on occasion the frequency of such cells varied greatly in cultures stimulated with different mitogens. There was no consistent chromosome change, but alterations of chromosome 2 were noted in four individuals and of chromosome 14 in three. In two patients, there was a translocation to the long arm of chromosome 14, producing a 14q+, with the break point in the terminal portion, an abnormality previously observed in B cell lymphomas. One of these patients also showed evidence of clonal evolution in sequential cytogenetic studies, but more data are needed to determine whether such investigations are of prognostic value with respect to the clinical course of the disease. 相似文献

The addition of low concentrations (less than 10(-7) M) of the calcium ionophore A23187 to rabbit neutrophils releases the intracellular pool of calcium previously shown in radioactive steady-state and chlortetracycline fluorescence studies to be mobilized by chemotactic factors. A23187 at these concentrations elicits no functional responses from these cells. However, A23187, added before chemotactic factors such as fMet-Leu-Phe and leukotriene B4, inhibits the ability of the latter stimuli to induce, in the presence of cytochalasin B, an exocytotic release of the neutrophil's cytoplasmic granules. These results imply that the chemotactic-factor-induced release of intracellular calcium is a necessary event for the optimal activation of the neutrophils. Phorbol ester-induced neutrophil degranulation on the other hand is unaffected by exposure to A23187, thereby completely dissociating its mechanism of action from rises in cytoplasmic free calcium. 相似文献

It has been established that alpha-tocopherol prevented rat thymocytes apoptotic death induced by low concentration (250 nM) of calcium ionophore A23187. When necrotic cell death was induced high concentration (10 microM) of calcium ionophore A23187 alpha-tocopherol was able to alter necrosis to apoptosis. It was proposed that such effect can be explained by the ability of alpha-tocopherol to prevent the mitochondrial permeability transition--a key event in apoptosis and necrosis induction. 相似文献

Murine lymphocytes exhibit heterogeneity in their proliferative responsiveness to calcium ionophore.
V N Kakkanaiah P S Nagarkatti M Nagarkatti 《Cellular and molecular biology, including cyto-enzymology》1992,38(5-6):533-543
The calcium ionophore, A23187, when used alone was found to induce proliferation of murine T cells, at concentrations of 0.5-1 mM. This response required the presence of syngeneic splenic adherant cells (SAC) as a source of accessory cells. Interestingly, only CD4+ T cells but not CD8+ T cells or B cells responded to the calcium ionophore by proliferation. The inability of CD8+ T cells or B cells to respond was not related to decreased elevation in the intracellular ionized calcium [Ca2+]i concentration induced by the ionophore, because activated CD4+ T, CD8+ T and B cells all exhibited similar elevation in [Ca2+]i. The inability of CD8+ T cells to respond to calcium ionophore was probably due to insufficient production of autocrine growth factors, such as IL-2, inasmuch as the addition of exogenous IL-2 could completely restore the CD8+ T cell responsiveness. Also, exogenous rIL-1 could partially restore purified T cell response to calcium ionophore, whereas, rIL-6 failed to do so. IL-2, but not IL-4, acted as an autocrine growth factor for T cells responding to the calcium ionophore in the presence of SAC, since, antibodies against IL-2 or IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) but not against IL-4, could inhibit the T cell proliferation. Furthermore, exogenous rIL-2 but not rIL-4 supported the proliferation of T cells to calcium ionophore in the absence of accessory cells. Our results suggest that murine lymphocytes exhibit heterogeneity in their proliferative responsiveness to calcium ionophore and that this may not depend on the early activation signal such as the elevation in [Ca2+]i) induced by the ionophore but may depend on subsequent signals which regulate endogenous growth factor production. 相似文献
