Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP content was measured in intima media of unaffected and atherosclerotic areas of human aorta in a short-term organ culture. It was demonstrated that during short-term cultivation the content of both cyclic nucleotides in tissues is constant. The cyclic AMP content in fatty streaks and atherosclerotic plaques is significantly (2 to 7-fold) lower than in unaffected intima. The cyclic GMP level in atherosclerotic lesions is 1.5 to 3-fold higher than in normal. The content of both cyclic nucleotides in the media underlying fatty streaks and atherosclerotic plaques is the same as in the normal tissue. The obtained data indicate serious disorders in the system of cyclic nucleotides during atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Sperm from several invertebrates contained guanylate cyclase activity several-hundred-fold greater than that in the most active mammalian tissues; the enzyme was totally particulate. Activity in the presence of Mn2+ was up to several hundred-fold greater than with Mg2+ and was increased 3–10-fold by Triton X-100. Sperm from several vertebrates did not contain detectable guanylate cyclase. Sperm of both invertebrates and vertebrates contained roughly equal amounts of Mn2+-dependent adenylate cyclase activity; in invertebrate sperm, this enzyme was generally several hundred-fold less active than guanylate cyclase. Adenylate cyclase was particulate, was unaffected by fluoride, and was generally greater than 10-fold more active with Mn2+ than with Mg2+. Invertebrate sperm contained phosphodiesterase activities against 1.0 μm cyclic GMP or cyclic AMP in amounts greater than mammalian tissues. Fish sperm, which did not contain guanylate cyclase, had high phosphodiesterase activity with cyclic AMP as substrate but hydrolyzed cyclic GMP at a barely detectable rate. In sea urchin sperm, phosphodiesterase activity against cyclic GMP was largely particulate and was strongly inhibited by 1.0% Triton X-100. In contrast, activity against cyclic AMP was largely soluble and was weakly inhibited by Triton. The cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP contents of sea urchin sperm were in the range of 0.1–1 nmol/g. Sea urchin sperm homogenates possessed protein kinase activity when histone was used as substrate; activities were more sensitive to stimulation by cyclic AMP than by cyclic GMP.5 相似文献

Cyclic AMP formation from ATP was stimulated by unpurified and partially purified soluble hepatic guanylate cyclase in the presence of nitric oxide (NO) or compounds containing a nitroso moiety such as nitroprusside, N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), nitrosyl ferroheme, and S-nitrosothiols. Cyclic AMP formation was undetectable in the absence of NO or nitroso compounds and was not stimulated by fluoride or glucagon, indicating the absence of adenylate cyclase activity. The nitroso compounds failed to activate, whereas fluoride or glucagon activated, adenylate cyclase in washed rat liver membrane fractions. Cyclic GMP formation from GTP was markedly stimulated by the soluble hepatic fraction in the presence of NO or nitroso compounds. Cyclic AMP formation by partially purified guanylate cyclase was competitively inhibited by GTP and cyclic GMP formation is well-known to be competitively inhibited by ATP. Therefore, it appears that activated guanylate cyclase, rather than adenylate cyclase, was responsible for the formation of cyclic AMP from ATP. Formation of cyclic AMP of cyclic GMP was enhanced by thiols, inhibited by hemoproteins and oxidants, and required the addition of either Mg2+ or Mn2+. Further, several nitrosyl ferroheme compounds and S-nitrosothiols stimulated the formation of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP by the soluble hepatic fraction. These observations support the view that soluble guanylate cyclase is capable, under certain well-defined conditions, of catalyzing the conversion of ATP to cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase [EC 3.1.4.17] was examined in tetrahymena pyriformis strain NT-1. Enzymic activity was associated with the soluble and the particulate fractions, whereas most of the cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was localized in the soluble fraction; the activities were optimal at pH 8.0-9.0. Although very low activities were detected in the absence of divalent cations, they were significantly increased by the addition of either Mg2+ or Mn2+. A kinetic analysis of the properties of the enzymes yielded 2 apparent K(m) values ranging in concentration from 0.5 to 50 micron and from 0.1 to 62 micron for cyclic AMP and GMP, respectively. A Ca2+ -dependent activating factor for cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was extracted from Tetrahymena cells, but this factor did not stimulate guanylate cyclase [EC 4.6.1.2] activity in this organism. On the other hand, tetrahymena also contained a protein activator which stimulated guanylate cyclase in the presence of Ca2+, although this activator did not stimulate the phosphodiesterase. The results suggested that Tetrahymena might contain 2 types of Ca2+ -dependent activators, one specific for phosphodiesterase and the other for guanylate cyclase. 相似文献

Abstract— The uniformity and speed of inactivation of mouse brain adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase were measured after 6 kW microwave irradiation (MWR). Inactivation of enzymes was uniform throughout the brain during heating and 100% loss of activity was evident after 300 ms. MWR. For comparison of effects of inactivation times on levels of cyclic nucleotides measured in regional brain areas, cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were estimated after 1.5 kW MWR requiring 4 s of heating and 6 kW MWR requiring 300 ms. Except for corpus striatum, uniformly lower levels of cyclic AMP were measured following 300 ms vs. 4s MWR . There was no change in cyclic GMP levels in regional brain areas after 4s vs. 300 ms MWR . Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were measured from the same regional brain tissue samples after 300 ms and ratios calculated. The finding of much lower cyclic AMP:cyclic GMP ratios than had previously been reported suggests that slow inactivation times provide for the measurement of regional brain cyclic nucleotide values which are not consistent with the in-vivo state. 相似文献

The subcellular localizations of guanylate cyclase and 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in sea urchin sperm were examined. Both the specific and total activities of these two enzymes were much higher in sperm flagella (tails) than in the heads. In addition to the observation that guanylate cyclase in the flagella was particulate-bound and solubilized by Triton X-100, more than 80% of the cyclase activity in the flagella was found in the plasma membrane fraction, whereas the activity of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was observed in both the axonemal and plasma membrane fractions. The observations indicated that the cyclase in the flagella appeared to be associated with the plasma membrane. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the plasma membrane fraction as well as the axonemal fraction hydrolyzed both cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP; however, the rates of hydrolysis for cyclic GMP were obviously higher than those for cyclic AMP. The enzymic properties of guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in sperm flagella were also briefly described. 相似文献

The activities of adenylate and guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucleotide 3':5'-phosphodiesterase were determined during the aggregation of human blood platelets with thrombin, ADP, arachidonic acid and epinephrine. The activity of guanylate cyclase is altered to a much larger degree than adenylate cyclase, while cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterease activity remains unchanged. During the early phases of thrombin-and ADP-induced platelet aggregation a marked activation of the guanylate cyclase occurs whereas aggregation induced by arachidonic acid or epinephrine results in a rapid diminution of this activity. In all four cases, the adenylate cyclase activity is only slightly decreased when examined under identical conditions. Platelet aggregation induced by a wide variety of aggregating agents including collagen and platelet isoantibodies results in the "release" of only small amounts (1-3%) of guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and no adenylate cyclase. The guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activities are associated almost entirely with the soluble cytoplasmic fraction of the platelet, while the adenylate cyclase if found exclusively in a membrane bound form. ADP and epinephrine moderately inhibit guanylate and adenylate cyclase in subcellular preparations, while arachidonic and other unsaturated fatty acids moderately stimulate (2-4-fold) the former. It is concluded that (1) the activity of platelet guanylate cyclase during aggregation depends on the nature and mode of action of the inducing agent, (2) the activity of the membrnae adenylate cyclase during aggregation is independent of the aggregating agent and is associated with a reduction of activity and (3) cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase remains unchanged during the process of platelet aggregation and release. Furthermore, these observations suggest a role for unsaturated fatty acids in the control of intracellular cyclic GMP levels. 相似文献

The subcellular localizations of guanylate cyclase and 3′,5′-cyclic nucleotide phophodiesterase in sea urchin sperm were examined. Both the specific and total activities of these two enzymes were much higher in sperm flagella (tails) than in the heads. In addition to the observation that guanylate cyclase in the flagella was particulate-bound and solubilized by Triton X-100, more than 980% of the cyclase activity in the flagella was found in the plasma membrane fraction, whereas the activity of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was observed in both the axonemal and plasma membrane fractions. The observations indicated that the cyclase in the flagella appeared to be associated with the plasma membrane. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the plasma membrane fraction as well as the axonemal fraction hydrolyzed both cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP; however, the rates of hydrolysis for cyclic GMP were obviously higher than those for cyclic AMP. The enzymic properties of guanylate cyclase and cyclic nucelotide phosphodiesterase in sperm flagella were also briefly described. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP in Strongylocentrotus purpuratus sperm was elevated approximately 2-fold by theophylline or 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine. Factors released from sea urchin eggs (FRE) elevated sperm cyclic AMP by about 7-fold within 1 min, and the combination of FRE with theophylline increased sperm cyclic AMP up to 100-fold within 1 min. Cyclic GMP in sea urchin sperm was slightly elevated by theophylline, but was lowered by FRE. Cyclic GMP in sperm treated with FRE plus theophylline was not higher than in sperm treated with theophylline alone. The ability of FRE-containing sea water to increase sperm cyclic AMP in the presence of theophylline was altered only slightly if at all by boiling, but it was decreased by about 50% by dialysis and destroyed by ashing. Filtration of FRE on Sephadex G-50 columns yielded two peaks of cyclic AMP-elevating activity. One peak (peak I) was eluted at the column void volume, and the other (peak II) was retained by the column. The cyclic GMP-lowering activity was located in fractions approximately corresponding to peak I of cyclic AMP-elevating activity. Dialysis of FRE-containing sea water before its application to the G-50 column virtually eliminated peak II of the cyclic AMP-elevating activity. When the cyclic AMP-elevating activity in peak I was filtered on Bio Gel A-5m columns, it also migrated at or near the column void volume. Fractions corresponding to peak I contained material that inhibited both guanylate and adenylate cyclase activities in broken cell preparations of sperm and guanylate cyclase from rat lung. The inhibitory material was stable to boiling, non-dialyzable, and destroyed by ashing. Under a variety of conditions, FRE-containing sea water or cyclic AMP-elevating peaks I or II did not stimulate sperm adenylate cyclase activity in broken cell preparations. 相似文献

To investigate the role of guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) in cultured cells we have measured guanylate cyclase and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities and cyclic GMP levels in normal and transformed fibroblastic cells. Guanylate cyclase activity is found almost exclusively in the particulate fraction of normal rat kidney (NRK) and BALB 3T3 cells. Enzyme activity is stimulated 3- to 10-fold by treatment with the detergent Lubrol PX. However, enhancement of guanylate cyclase by fibroblast growth factor could not be demonstrated under a variety of assay conditions. In both NRK and BALB 3T3 cells guanylate cyclase activity is low during logarithmic growth and increases as the cells crowd together and growth slows. Guanylate cyclase activity is undetectable in homogenates of NRK cells transformed by the Kirsten sarcoma virus (KNRK cells) either in the presence or absence of Lubrol PX. Guanylate cyclase activity is also greatly decreased in NRK cells transformed by Moloney, Schmidt-Ruppin, or Harvey viruses. BALB 3T3 cells transformed by RNA viruses (Kirsten, Harvey, or Moloney), by a DNA virus (SV40), by methylcholanthrene, or spontaneously, all have diminished but readily detectable guanylate cyclase activity. Cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity is found predominately in the soluble fraction of NRK cells. This activity increases slightly as NRK cells enter the stationary growth phase. Cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity is undetectable in two clones of KNRK cells under a variety of assay conditions, and is decreased relative to the level present in NRK cells in a third KNRK clone. However, both Moloney- and Schmidt-Ruppin-transformed NRK cells have a phosphodiesterase activity similar to that found in NRK cells. Boiled supernatant from both NRK and KNRK cells is observed to appreciably enhance the activity of activator-deficient phosphodiesterase from bovine heart. This result indicates that the absence of cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity in KNRK cells is not due to a loss of the phosphodiesterase activator. The intracellular concentration of cyclic GMP is found to be very low in transformed NRK cells when compared to levels measured in confluent NRK cells. The low levels of cyclic GMP in transformed NRK cells reflect the greatly decreased guanylate cyclase activity observed in these cells. These results do not appear to support the suggestion that cyclic GMP promotes the growth of fibroblastic cells. 相似文献

We report that in Escherichia coli, chemotaxis to sugars transported by the phosphotransferase system is mediated by adenylate cyclase, the nucleotide cyclase linked to the phosphotransferase system. We conclude that adenylate cyclase is required in this chemotaxis pathway because mutations in the cyclase gene (cya) eliminate or impair the response to phosphotransferase system sugars, even though other components of the phosphotransferase system known to be required for the detection of these sugars are relatively unaffected by such mutations. Moreover, merely supplying the mutant bacteria with the products of this enzyme, cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, does not restore the chemotactic response. Because a residual chemotactic response is observed in certain strains with residual cyclic GMP synthesis but no cyclic AMP synthesis, it appears that the guanylate cyclase activity rather than the adenylate cyclase activity of the enzyme may be required for chemotaxis to sugars transported by the phosphotransferase system. Mutations in the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase gene, which increase the level of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, also reduce chemotaxis to these sugars. Therefore, it appears that control of the level of a cyclic nucleotide is critical for the chemotactic response to phosphotransferase system sugars. 相似文献

The effect of an inhibitor of adenylate cyclase (ACI) was measured on some enzymes associated with cyclic nucleotide-regulated metabolism. Soluble guanylate cyclase was inhibited; both soluble and particulate cyclic GMP-phosphodiesterases were stimulated. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases were unaffected. In contrast, the activities of Na, K-ATPase, protein kinase, phosphorylase kinase, glycogen synthetase and a number of glycosidases were not altered by equipotent amounts of the inhibitor. It is concluded that this substance acts as a modulator of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP metabolism in heart and other tissues. 相似文献

1. The cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in homogenates of the submaxillary gland and pancreas was found to be associated mainly with the 300,000 times g supernatant fraction. A Lineweaver-Burk plot showed a high-affinity (Km app. = 1.6 muM) and a low-affinity (Km app. greater than 100muM) component for the cyclic AMP substrate. The enzyme was magnesium dependent, and strongly inhibited by papaverine, theophylline and caffeine. Cyclic GMP inhibited cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, but only in concentrations greatly exceeding that of the cyclic AMP. Calcium did not alter the activity of the enzyme. The activity of the submaxillary cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was not influenced by noradrenaline, dopamine, histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine or gamma-amino butyric acid, and that of the pancreatic enzyme by acetylcholine, pancreozymin or secretin. 2. Adenylate cyclases from guinea-pig submaxillary gland and cat pancreas are particulate enzymes. The highest specific activity was recovered from the 1500 times g pellet. Guineo-pig submaxillary adenylate cyclase was activated by fluoride, noradrenaline, isoprenaline and adrenaline. The noradrenaline activation was blocked by the beta-adrenoceptor blocker, propranolol, but not by the alphs-adrenoceptor blocker, phentolamine. Neither acetylcholine nor carbachol had any effect on the adenylate cyclase activity. The apparent Km value for the 10- minus 4 M noradrenaline activated adenylate cyclase activity was completely aboliched by 5 mM calcium. Cat pancreatic adenylate cyclase was clearly and consistently activated by secretin, but not by pancreozymin or carbachol. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities (3' : 5'-cyclic AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) were demonstrated in the isolated intima, media, and adventitia of rabbit aorta. The activity for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the intima was 2.7-fold higher than that for cyclic GMP hydrolysis. The activity for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the media was approximately equal to that for cyclic GMP hydrolysis, but in the adventitia, cyclic GMP hydrolytic activity was 2.1-fold higher than cyclic AMP hydrolytic activity. Distribution of the activator of the phosphodiesterase was studied in the three layers. Each layer contained the activator. The activator was predominantly localized in the smooth muscle layer (the media). The effect of the activator and Ca2+ on the media cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was also briefly studied. The activity of the cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was stimulated by micromolar concentration of Ca2+ in the presence of the activator. However, the activity of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was not significantly stimulated by Ca2+ up to 100 muM in the presence of the activator. Above 90% of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity in the whole aorta was found to be derived from the media. A major portion (60-70%) of the media enzyme was found in 105 000 times g supernatant. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in the supernatant was partially purified through Sepharose 6B column chromatography and partially separated from cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase. Using a partially purified preparation from the 105 000 times g supernatant the main kinetic parameters were specified as follows: 1) The pH optimum was found to be about 9.0 using Tris-maleate buffer. The maximum stimulation of the enzyme by Mg2+ was achieved at 4mM of MgC12. 2) High concentration of cyclic GMP (0.1 mM) inhibited noncompetitively the enzyme activity, and the activity was not stimulated at any tested concentration of cyclic GMP. 3) Activity-substrate concentration relationship revealed a high affinity (Km equals 1.0 muM) and low affinity (Km equals 45 muM) for cyclic AMP. The homogenate and 105 000 times g supernatant of the media also showed non-linear kinetics similar to the Sepharose 6B preparation and their apparent Km values for cyclic AMP hydrolysis were 1.2 muM and 36-40 muM and an enzyme extracted by sonication from 105 000 times g precipitate also exhibited non-linear kinetics (Km equals 5.1 muM and 70 muM). 4) Papaverine exhibited much stronger inhibition on the aorta cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (50% inhibition of the intima enzyme, I5 o at 0.62 muM, I5 o of the media at 0.62 muM and I5 o of the adventitia at 1.0 muM) than on the brain (I5 o at 8.5 muM) and serum (I5 o at 20 muM) cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, while theophylline inhibited these enzymes similarly. However, cyclic GMP phosphodiesterases in all tissues examined were inhibited similarly, not only by theophylline but also by papaverine. 相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide metabolism in rat colonic epithelial cells with different proliferative activities 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Cyclic nucleotide metabolism was examined in rat distal colonic epithelial cells with different proliferative activities. Lower crypt cells had DNA synthetic rates 7-10-fold higher than surface cells. Without a phosphodiesterase inhibitor proliferative cells had reduced basal cyclic AMP-, cyclic GMP-, and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratios, as well as blunted cyclic AMP responses to prostaglandin E2 and vasoactive intestinal peptide compared to superficial cells. In the presence of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, basal cyclic AMP and responses to prostaglandin E2 and vasoactive intestinal peptide of proliferative cells exceeded values in superficial cells. This correlated with higher membrane adenylate cyclase activity in the proliferative cells. By contrast, particulate and soluble guanylate cyclase activities of superficial cells were higher than in proliferative cells. The apparent high Km soluble and particulate cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities of proliferative cells were 4-7-fold higher than those in superficial cells. Moreover, the apparent low Km soluble activity was absent in superficial cells. Thus, an altered rate of nucleotide degradation may mediate reduced cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP in proliferative versus superficial cells. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP, prostaglandin E2 or vasoactive intestinal peptide inhibited [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA of colonic segments. Thus, reduced cyclic AMP in lower crypt cells may be a determinant of their greater proliferative activity. 相似文献

Adrenalectomy increased guanyl cyclase and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities in liver and other rat tissues. Liver guanyl cyclase activities from adrenalectomized rats were increased above those of normal controls according to kinetic analysis, gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography, discontinuous sucrose gradient fractionation, sulfhydryl inhibition, and secretin activation. The effects of adrenal insufficiency on hepatic guanyl cyclase and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase were prevented by cortisone acetate administration. Immunoassay of liver and skeletal muscle cyclic GMP after adrenalectomy showed markedly decreased levels in liver, but increased levels in skeletal muscle. In liver and other tissues, basal adenyl cyclase and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activities were unaffected by adrenalectomy. Hepatic levels of cyclic AMP were also unchanged by adrenalectomy. Hypophysectomy raised guanyl cyclase activity in liver but had no effect on liver cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity. These alterations are discussed in relation to possible glucocorticoid regulation of cyclic GMP metabolism. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP levels in rat lungs showed phasic elevations which peaked during fetal, neonatal and late postnatal periods of development. Lung phospholipids showed major alterations in their levels during fetal and early neonatal life. Alterations in glycogen levels were accompanied by parallel changes in phosphorylase a/total phosphorylase activity which may be related to changes in cyclic AMP during development. Cyclic AMP levels were dependent on the relative activities of adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase which also changed with age. Activation of adenylate cyclase by norepinephrine and NaF, and of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase by calcium, was maximum neonatally and declined variably thereafter. These data suggest a relationship between cyclic AMP, glycogen and phospholipids during rat lung development. 相似文献

Pyruvate increased cyclic GMP levels in rat hepatocytes. The effects were observed without or with 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine. Lactate, acetate, oxaloacetate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate also increased cyclic GMP levels. Some compounds increased cyclic GMP in kidney cortex slices. The effects were dependent upon Ca2+ in the medium. Cyclic AMP was increased 30-50% by some of these substances with 2.6 mM Ca2+. Rotenone, oligomycin, antimycin, dinitrophenol, KCN, and arsenate decreased GTP and ATP, basal cyclic GMP and the pyruvate effect, but did not alter cyclic AMP. Although fluoroacetate alone had no effect on cyclic nucleotides, GTP, or ATP, it potentiated the pyruvate effect on cyclic GMP. Adenosine and guanosine increased cyclic GMP and GTP to a similar extent of 30-50%. Aminooxyacetate, cycloserine, pentenoic acid and mepacrine decreased the pyruvate effect while cycloserine or mepacrine alone increased cyclic GMP. Citrate and mepacrine inhibited soluble and particulate guanylate cyclase from rat liver while cycloserine and acetoacetate increased guanylate cyclase activity. None of the other compounds altered guanylate cyclase activity. These results indicate that various metabolites and inhibitors can alter cyclic GMP accumulation in hepatocytes and renal cortex slices. Several mechanisms may be involved in these effects. 相似文献

Enzyme activities related to aerobic metabolism and cyclic nucleotides were evaluated in muscle and nonmuscle cells of rat heart. The perinatal period from weaning to adult was studied. Malate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activities of nonmuscle cells equal or exceed muscle cell activities in the weanling heart. Aerobic enzymes remain unchanged in nonmuscle cells during growth; however, muscle cell activities are enhanced. Adenylate cyclase and guanylate cyclase activities are higher in heart homogenates of weanling than adult rats. Despite elevated adenylate cyclase activity, cyclic AMP levels are identical in weanling and adult rats. Cyclic GMP levels are twofold higher in weanling than in adult rats. Muscle cell metabolism and cyclic nucleotide levels are associated with growth-related changes in heart function and cellularity, respectively. 相似文献

The effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on the intracellular concentration of cyclic nucleotides was studied in cultures of neurons from embryonic chick cerebral hemispheres. Incubation of neurons with ACTH(1-24) in the presence of phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobutylmethylxanthine resulted in a sustained increase in cyclic AMP while rise in cyclic GMP level was transient. The values obtained for half-maximal stimulation were 0.5 microM and 0.03 nM for cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP respectively. Concomitantly, ACTH(1-24) stimulated guanylate cyclase activity (half-maximal stimulation at 0.02 nM). These results suggest the existence of two distinct populations of ACTH receptors in neurons and provide the first evidence that cyclic GMP does mediate the action of ACTH in neurons. 相似文献
