Sauzeau V Le Jeune H Cario-Toumaniantz C Smolenski A Lohmann SM Bertoglio J Chardin P Pacaud P Loirand G 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2000,275(28):21722-21729
The potent vasodilator action of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (cGK) involves decreasing the Ca(2+) sensitivity of contraction of smooth muscle via stimulation of myosin light chain phosphatase through unknown mechanisms (Wu, X., Somlyo, A. V., and Somlyo, A. P. (1996) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 220, 658-663). Myosin light chain phosphatase activity is controlled by the small GTPase RhoA and its target Rho kinase. Here we demonstrate cGMP effects mediated by cGK that inhibit RhoA-dependent Ca(2+) sensitization of contraction of blood vessels and actin cytoskeleton organization in cultured vascular myocytes. Ca(2+) sensitization and actin organization were inhibited by both 8-bromo-cGMP and sodium nitroprusside (SNP). SNP also caused translocation of activated RhoA from the membrane to the cytosol. SNP-induced actin disassembly was lost in vascular myocytes in culture after successive passages but was restored by transfection of cells with cGK I. Furthermore, cGK phosphorylated RhoA in vitro, and addition of cGK I inhibited RhoA-induced Ca(2+) sensitization in permeabilized smooth muscle. 8-Bromo-cGMP-induced actin disassembly was inhibited in vascular myocytes expressing RhoA(Ala-188), a mutant that could not be phosphorylated. Collectively, these results indicate that cGK phosphorylates and inhibits RhoA and suggest that the consequent inhibition of RhoA-induced Ca(2+) sensitization and actin cytoskeleton organization contributes to the vasodilator action of nitric oxide. 相似文献

CPI-17 is a unique phosphoprotein that specifically inhibits myosin light chain phosphatase in smooth muscle and plays an essential role in agonist-induced contraction. To elucidate the in situ mechanism for G protein-mediated Ca2+-sensitization of CPI-17 phosphorylation, α-toxin-permeabilized arterial smooth muscle strips were used to monitor both force development and CPI-17 phosphorylation in response to GTPγS with varying Ca2+ concentrations. CPI-17 phosphorylation increased at unphysiologically high Ca2+ levels of pCa ? 6. GTPγS markedly enhanced the Ca2+ sensitivity of CPI-17 steady-state phosphorylation but had no enhancing effect under Ca2+-free conditions, while the potent PKC activator PDBu increased CPI-17 phosphorylation regardless of Ca2+ concentration. CPI-17 phosphorylation induced by pCa 4.5 alone was markedly inhibited by the presence of PKC inhibitor but not ROCK inhibitor. In the presence of calyculin A, a potent PP1/PP2A phosphatase inhibitor, CPI-17 phosphorylation increased with time even under Ca2+-free conditions. Furthermore, as Ca2+ concentration increased, so did CPI-17 phosphorylation rate. GTPγS markedly enhanced the rate of phosphorylation of CPI-17 at a given Ca2+. In the absence of calyculin A, either steady-state phosphorylation of CPI-17 under Ca2+-free conditions in the presence of GTPγS or at pCa 6.7 in the absence of GTPγS was negligible, suggesting a high intrinsic CPI-17 phosphatase activity. In conclusion, cooperative increases in Ca2+ and G protein activation are required for a significant activation of total kinases that phosphorylate CPI-17, which together overcome CPI-17 phosphatase activity and effectively increase the Ca2+ sensitivity of CPI-17 phosphorylation and smooth muscle contraction. 相似文献

In smooth muscle, Ca(2+) controls diverse activities including cell division, contraction and cell death. Of particular significance in enabling Ca(2+) to perform these multiple functions is the cell's ability to localize Ca(2+) signals to certain regions by creating high local concentrations of Ca(2+) (microdomains), which differ from the cytoplasmic average. Microdomains arise from Ca(2+) influx across the plasma membrane or release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) store. A single Ca(2+) channel can create a microdomain of several micromolar near (approximately 200 nm) the channel. This concentration declines quickly with peak rates of several thousand micromolar per second when influx ends. The high [Ca(2+)] and the rapid rates of decline target Ca(2+) signals to effectors in the microdomain with rapid kinetics and enable the selective activation of cellular processes. Several elements within the cell combine to enable microdomains to develop. These include the brief open time of ion channels, localization of Ca(2+) by buffering, the clustering of ion channels to certain regions of the cell and the presence of membrane barriers, which restrict the free diffusion of Ca(2+). In this review, the generation of microdomains arising from Ca(2+) influx across the plasma membrane and the release of the ion from the SR Ca(2+) store will be discussed and the contribution of mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus as well as endogenous modulators (e.g. cADPR and channel binding proteins) will be considered. 相似文献

Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) occurs in smooth muscle as spontaneous SR Ca(2+) release or Ca(2+) sparks and, in some spiking tissues, as Ca(2+) release that is triggered by the activation of sarcolemmal Ca(2+) channels. Both processes display spatial localization in that release occurs at a higher frequency at specific subcellular regions. We have used two-photon flash photolysis (TPFP) of caged Ca(2+) (DMNP-EDTA) in Fluo-4-loaded urinary bladder smooth muscle cells to determine the extent to which spatially localized increases in Ca(2+) activate SR release and to further understand the molecular and biophysical processes underlying CICR. TPFP resulted in localized Ca(2+) release in the form of Ca(2+) sparks and Ca(2+) waves that were distinguishable from increases in Ca(2+) associated with Ca(2+) uncaging, unequivocally demonstrating that Ca(2+) release occurs subsequent to a localized rise in [Ca(2+)](i). TPFP-triggered Ca(2+) release was not constrained to a few discharge regions but could be activated at all areas of the cell, with release usually occurring at or within several microns of the site of photolysis. As expected, the process of CICR was dominated by ryanodine receptor (RYR) activity, as ryanodine abolished individual Ca(2+) sparks and evoked release with different threshold and kinetics in FKBP12.6-null cells. However, TPFP CICR was not completely inhibited by ryanodine; Ca(2+) release with distinct kinetic features occurred with a higher TPFP threshold in the presence of ryanodine. This high threshold release was blocked by xestospongin C, and the pharmacological sensitivity and kinetics were consistent with CICR release at high local [Ca(2+)](i) through inositol trisphosphate (InsP(3)) receptors (InsP(3)Rs). We conclude that CICR activated by localized Ca(2+) release bears essential similarities to those observed by the activation of I(Ca) (i.e., major dependence on the type 2 RYR), that the release is not spatially constrained to a few specific subcellular regions, and that Ca(2+) release through InsP(3)R can occur at high local [Ca(2+)](i). 相似文献

Ca2+ regulation of vascular smooth muscle 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Regulation of intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations in vascular smooth muscle is accomplished mainly by Ca2+ channels and ATP-dependent Ca2+ pumps in the plasmalemma and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Ca2+ entry through the plasmalemma is apparently mediated by four different pathways: leak; receptor-operated Ca2+ channels; potential sensitive Ca2+ channels; and stretch-activated channels. The agonist releasable intracellular Ca2+ store appears to be identical with the SR. Evidence for the involvement of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate in the release of SR Ca2+ is discussed. Smooth muscle contractions induced by certain agonists may be further enhanced by inhibition of Ca2+ uptake by the SR and of active Ca2+ extrusion across the plasmalemma. At the moment it is not clear from a consideration of the Ca2+ regulatory mechanisms present in vascular smooth muscle how dietary Ca2+ affects vascular tone. The increased Ca2+ permeation through smooth muscle cell membranes of resistance arteries taken from spontaneously hypertensive rats may be relevant to this problem. 相似文献

Sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC), a sphingolipid, concentration-dependently (1-50 microM) induced contraction and slight elevation of the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in smooth muscle of the pig coronary artery, the result being a marked increase in the force/[Ca(2+)](i) ratio. In alpha-toxin- or beta-escin-permeabilized, but not Triton X-100-permeabilized, vascular strips, SPC induced contraction at constant [Ca(2+)](i) (pCa 6.3) in the absence of GTP, whereas a G-protein-coupled receptor agonist, histamine, required the presence of GTP to induce the contraction. The Rho-kinase blocker, Y-27632 (10 microM) abolished the SPC-induced Ca(2+)-sensitization, without affecting the Ca(2+)-induced contraction. These results suggest that SPC induces Ca(2+)-sensitization of force in vascular smooth muscle, presumably through the activation of Rho-kinase (or a related kinase). 相似文献

Rat uterine smooth muscle shows sustained contraction to oxytocin in Ca2+-free medium with EGTA, that is called "Ca-free contraction"(1). Participation of the rise in cytosolic free Ca2+ in this Ca-free contraction was tested. In Ca-free contraction, the cytosolic free Ca2+ level was not changed at all as measured with fura-2. Further, the chelation of cytosolic free Ca2+ with quin-2 did not at all affect Ca-free contraction. These results strongly suggest that Ca-free contraction is not triggered by Ca2+. 相似文献

A translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) from cytosol to plasma membrane has been reported as an association with agonist-induced Ca2+ sensitization in smooth muscle contraction. Therefore, it is possible that a downstream target of PKC, CPI-17 [PKC-potentiated inhibitory protein for heterotrimeric myosin light chain (MLC) phosphatase of 17 kDa], might also be translocated to membrane when activated. To confirm this hypothesis, cytosolic and membrane CPI-17 was measured in acetylcholine (ACh)- and high-K+ depolarization-stimulated bronchial smooth muscle of rats. An active form of CPI-17, i.e., Thr38-phosphorylated CPI-17, was also measured in cytosolic and membrane fractions. Immunoblot analyses demonstrated a translocation of CPI-17 from cytosolic to membrane fraction by ACh, but not high-K+ depolarization, stimulation in time- and concentration-dependent manners. Interestingly, phosphorylated CPI-17 was detected only in membrane fractions in the ACh-stimulated tissues. However, in the high-K+ depolarization-stimulated tissues, phosphorylated CPI-17 was not detected both in membrane and cytosolic fraction. To estimate downstream of activated CPI-17, immunoblotting for phosphorylated MLC was performed in ACh- or high-K+ depolarization-stimulated tissues. ACh- and high-K+ depolarization-induced phosphorylation of MLC was observed in its contraction-dependent manner. In conclusion, we, for the first time, suggested that CPI-17 is translocated and phosphorylated by ACh, but not high-K+ depolarization, in rat bronchial smooth muscle. ACh-induced translocation and phosphorylation of CPI-17 might be caused via the activation of muscarinic receptor. 相似文献

Ca2+ sensitivity of smooth muscle (SM) contraction is determined by CPI-17, an inhibitor protein for myosin light chain phosphatase
(MLCP). CPI-17 is highly expressed in mature SM cells, but the expression level varies under pathological conditions. Here,
we determined the expression of CPI-17 in embryonic SM tissues and arterial neointimal lesions using immunohistochemistry.
As seen in adult animals, the predominant expression of CPI-17 was detected at SM tissues on mouse embryonic sections, whereas
MLCP was ubiquitously expressed. Compared with SM α-actin, CPI-17 expression doubled in arterial SM from embryonic day E10
to E14. Like SM α-actin and other SM marker proteins, CPI-17 was expressed in embryonic heart, and the expression was down-regulated
at E17. In adult rat, CPI-17 expression level was reduced to 30% in the neointima of injured rat aorta, compared with the
SM layers, whereas the expression of MLCP was unchanged in both regions. Unlike other SM proteins, CPI-17 was detected at
non-SM organs in the mouse embryo, such as embryonic neurons and epithelium. Thus, CPI-17 expression is reversibly controlled
in response to the phenotype transition of SM cells that restricts the signal to differentiated SM cells and particular cell
types.

Motility disorders are frequently observed in intestinal inflammation. We previously reported that in vitro treatment of intestinal smooth muscle tissue with IL-1beta decreases the expression of CPI-17, an endogenous inhibitory protein of smooth muscle serine/threonine protein phosphatase, thereby inhibiting contraction. The present study was performed to examine the pathophysiological importance of CPI-17 expression in the motility disorders by using an in vivo model of intestinal inflammation and to define the regulatory mechanism of CPI-17 expression by proinflammatory cytokines. After the induction of acute ileitis with 2,4,6,-trinitrobenzensulfonic acid, CPI-17 expression declined in a time-dependent manner. This decrease in CPI-17 expression was parallel with the reduction of cholinergic agonist-induced contraction of smooth muscle strips and sensitivity of permeabilized smooth muscle fibers to Ca(2+). Among the various proinflammatory cytokines tested, TNF-alpha and IL-1beta were observed to directly inhibit CPI-17 expression and contraction in cultured rat intestinal tissue. Moreover, both TNF-alpha and IL-1beta inhibited CPI-17 expression and contraction of smooth muscle tissue isolated from wild-type and IL-1alpha/beta double-knockout mice. However, IL-1beta treatment failed to inhibit CPI-17 expression and contraction in TNF-alpha knockout mice. In beta-escin-permeabilized ileal tissues, pretreatment with anti-phosphorylated CPI-17 antibody inhibited the carbachol-induced Ca(2+) sensitization in the presence of GTP. These findings suggest that CPI-17 was downregulated during intestinal inflammation and that TNF-alpha plays a central role in this process. Downregulation of CPI-17 may play a role in motility impairments in inflammation. 相似文献

Isolated myosin light chain from chicken gizzard has been shown to serve as a substrate for Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase. Autoradiography showed that Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated mainly the 20,000-dalton light chain of chicken gizzard myosin. Exogenously added calmodulin had no effect on myosin light chain phosphorylation catalyzed by the enzyme. The 20,000-dalton myosin light chain, both in the isolated form and in the whole myosin form, served as the substrate for this enzyme. In contrast to the isolated myosin light chain, the light chain of whole myosin was phosphorylated to a lesser extent by the Ca2+-activated phospholipid dependent kinase. Our results suggest the involvement of phospholipid in regulating Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of the 20,000-dalton light chain of smooth muscle myosin. 相似文献

Recent studies on the role of nitric oxide (NO) ingastrointestinal smooth muscle have raised the possibility thatNO-stimulated cGMP could, in the absence of cGMP-dependent proteinkinase (PKG) activity, act as aCa2+-mobilizing messenger[K. S. Murthy, K.-M. Zhang, J.-G. Jin, J. T. Grider, and G. M. Makhlouf. Am. J. Physiol. 265 (Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 28):G660-G671, 1993]. This notion was examined indispersed gastric smooth muscle cells with 8-bromo-cGMP (8-BrcGMP) andwith NO and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), which stimulate endogenous cGMP. In muscle cells treated with cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and PKG inhibitors (H-89 and KT-5823), 8-BrcGMP (10 µM),NO (1 µM), and VIP (1 µM) stimulated45Ca2+release (21 ± 3 to 30 ± 1% decrease in45Ca2+cell content); Ca2+ releasestimulated by 8-BrcGMP was concentration dependent with anEC50 of 0.4 ± 0.1 µM and athreshold of 10 nM. 8-BrcGMP and NO increased cytosolic freeCa2+ concentration([Ca2+]i)and induced contraction; both responses were abolished after Ca2+ stores were depleted withthapsigargin. With VIP, which normally increases[Ca2+]iby stimulating Ca2+ influx,treatment with PKA and PKG inhibitors caused a further increase in[Ca2+]ithat reverted to control levels in cells pretreated with thapsigargin. Neither Ca2+ release norcontraction induced by cGMP and NO in permeabilized muscle cells wasaffected by heparin or ruthenium red.Ca2+ release induced by maximallyeffective concentrations of cGMP and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate(IP3) was additive, independent of which agent was applied first. We conclude that, in the absence ofPKA and PKG activity, cGMP stimulatesCa2+ release from anIP3-insensitive store and that itseffect is additive to that of IP3. 相似文献

CPI-17 is a phosphorylation-dependent inhibitor of smooth muscle myosin light chain. Using yeast two-hybrid system, we have identified the receptor for activated C kinase 1 (RACK1) as a novel interaction partner of CPI-17. The direct interaction and co-localization of CPI-17 with RACK1 were confirmed by immunoprecipitation and confocal microscopy analysis, respectively. An in vitro assay system using recombinant/purified proteins revealed that the PKC-mediated phosphorylation of CPI-17 was augmented in the presence of RACK1. These results suggest that RACK1 may play a role in PKC/CPI-17 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Limited autolysis reduces the Ca2+ requirement of a smooth muscle Ca2+-activated protease 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Chicken gizzard smooth muscle contains large amounts of Ca2+-activated protease activity. Approximately 15 mg of purified enzyme can be obtained from 1 kg of fresh muscle. The enzyme consists of two subunits (Mr = 80,000 and 30,000) present in a 1:1 molar ratio. In the presence of CaCl2, the 80,000/30,000-dalton heterodimer (form I) is rapidly converted by limited autolysis to a 76,000/18,000-dalton species (form II). Both the 80,000- and 30,000-dalton subunits are degraded simultaneously. Moreover, the Ca2+ dependence for autolysis (K0.5 = 300 microM) is identical for both subunits. Neither the time course nor the Ca2+ dependence of the autolytic conversion reaction is altered by 10- and 20-fold molar excesses of substrate. Limited autolysis markedly reduces the Ca2+ requirement for substrate degradation. Using N-[ethyl-2-3H]maleimide-labeled 27,000-dalton cardiac myosin light chains as substrate, the Ca2+ requirement of form I was found to be quite high (K0.5 = 150 microM). Under similar conditions, the Ca2+ requirement of form II was 30-fold lower (K0.5 = 5 microM). Limited autolysis did not alter the specific activity of the enzyme. Our results demonstrate that smooth muscle contains an abundant amount of Ca2+-activated protease. Moreover, autolysis of this enzyme may play an important regulatory role by converting the native form to a species that is fully active at physiological levels of intracellular calcium ion. 相似文献

Ca(2+) influx triggered by depletion of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) stores [mediated via store-operated Ca(2+) channels (SOCC)] was characterized in enzymatically dissociated porcine airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells. When SR Ca(2+) was depleted by either 5 microM cyclopiazonic acid or 5 mM caffeine in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+), subsequent introduction of extracellular Ca(2+) further elevated [Ca(2+)](i). SOCC was insensitive to 1 microM nifedipine- or KCl-induced changes in membrane potential. However, preexposure of cells to 100 nM-1 mM La(3+) or Ni(2+) inhibited SOCC. Exposure to ACh increased Ca(2+) influx both in the presence and absence of a depleted SR. Inhibition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP)-induced SR Ca(2+) release by 20 microM xestospongin D inhibited SOCC, whereas ACh-induced IP(3) production by 5 microM U-73122 had no effect. Inhibition of Ca(2+) release through ryanodine receptors (RyR) by 100 microM ryanodine also prevented Ca(2+) influx via SOCC. Qualitatively similar characteristics of SOCC-mediated Ca(2+) influx were observed with cyclopiazonic acid- vs. caffeine-induced SR Ca(2+) depletion. These data demonstrate that a Ni(2+)/La(3+)-sensitive Ca(2+) influx via SOCC in porcine ASM cells involves SR Ca(2+) release through both IP(3) and RyR channels. Additional regulation of Ca(2+) influx by agonist may be related to a receptor-operated, noncapacitative mechanism. 相似文献
