The effect of the guanine nucleotide GTP on Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum of digitonin-permeabilized islets was investigated. maximal and half-maximal Ca2+ release were observed at 5 microM- and 2.5 microM-GTP respectively. GTP caused a rapid release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, which was complete within 1 min. GTP-induced Ca2+ release was structurally specific and required the hydrolysis of GTP. The combination of maximal concentrations of GTP (10 microM) and myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) (10 microM) resulted in an additive effect on Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum. GDP (100 microM), which inhibits GTP-induced Ca2+ release, did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release. Furthermore, GTP-induced Ca2+ release was not independent on submicromolar free Ca2+ concentrations, unlike IP3-induced Ca2+ release. These observations suggest that mechanistically GTP-induced Ca2+ release is different from IP3-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

The effects of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) on Ca2+ uptake and release from isolated adipocyte endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane vesicles were investigated. Effects of IP3 were initially characterized using an endoplasmic reticulum preparation with cytosol present (S1-ER). Maximal and half-maximal effects of IP3 on Ca2+ release from S1-ER vesicles occurred at 20 microM- and 7 microM-IP3, respectively, in the presence of vanadate which prevents the re-uptake of released Ca2+ via the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump. At saturating IP3 concentrations, Ca2+ release in the presence of vanadate was 20% of the exchangeable Ca2+ pool. IP3-induced release of Ca2+ from S1-ER was dependent on extravesicular free Ca2+ concentration with maximal release occurring at 0.13 microM free Ca2+. At 20 microM-IP3 there was no effect on the initial rate of Ca2+ uptake by S1-ER. IP3 promoted Ca2+ release from isolated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles (cytosol not present) to a similar level as compared with S1-ER. Addition of cytosol to isolated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release. The endoplasmic reticulum preparation was further fractionated into heavy and light vesicles by differential centrifugation. Interestingly, the heavy fraction, but not the light fraction, released Ca2+ when challenged with IP3. IP3 (20 microM) did not promote Ca2+ release from plasma membrane vesicles and had no effect on the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity or on the initial rate of ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by these vesicles. These results support the concept that IP3 acts exclusively at the endoplasmic reticulum to promote Ca2+ release. 相似文献

Sperm factor induces intracellular free calcium oscillations by stimulating the phosphoinositide pathway 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Injection of a porcine cytosolic sperm factor (SF) or of a porcine testicular extract into mammalian eggs triggers oscillations of intracellular free calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) similar to those initiated by fertilization. To elucidate whether SF activates the phosphoinositide (PI) pathway, mouse eggs or SF were incubated with U73122, an inhibitor of events leading to phospholipase C (PLC) activation and/or of PLC itself. In both cases, U73122 blocked the ability of SF to induce [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations, although it did not inhibit Ca(2+) release caused by injection of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP(3)). The inactive analogue, U73343, had no effect on SF-induced Ca(2+) responses. To determine at the single cell level whether SF triggers IP(3) production concomitantly with a [Ca(2+)](i) rise, SF was injected into Xenopus oocytes and IP(3) concentration was determined using a biological detector cell combined with capillary electrophoresis. Injection of SF induced a significant increase in [Ca(2+)](i) and IP(3) production in these oocytes. Using ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatographic fractionation, and Western blotting, we determined whether PLCgamma1, PLCgamma2, or PLCdelta4 and/or its splice variants, which are present in sperm and testis, are responsible for the Ca(2+) activity in the extracts. Our results revealed that active fractions do not contain PLCgamma1, PLCgamma2, or PLCdelta4 and/or its splice variants, which were present in inactive fractions. We also tested whether IP(3) could be the sensitizing stimulus of the Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release mechanism, which is an important feature of fertilized and SF-injected eggs. Eggs injected with adenophostin A, an IP(3) receptor agonist, showed enhanced Ca(2+) responses to CaCl(2) injections. Thus, SF, and probably sperm, induces [Ca(2+)](i) rises by persistently stimulating IP(3) production, which in turn results in long-lasting sensitization of Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release. Whether SF is itself a PLC or whether it acts upstream of the egg's PLCs remains to be elucidated. 相似文献

When [3H]inositol prelabelled cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells were stimulated with 56 mM KCl (high K+), 300 microM carbamylcholine (CCh) or 10 microM angiotensin II (Ang II), a rapid accumulation of [3H]IP3 was observed. At the same time, high K+ or CCh induced rapid increases in 45Ca2+ uptake, but Ang II did not induce a significant 45Ca2+ uptake. The concentration-response curve for KCl-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation coincided well with that for KCl-induced 45Ca2+ uptake into the cells. Nifedipine, a Ca2+ channel antagonist, inhibited the high K(+)-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation and 45Ca2+ uptake with a similar potency. Nifedipine at a similar concentration range also inhibited CCh-induced 45Ca2+ uptake. Although nifedipine inhibited CCh-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation, the potency was approximately 300-fold less than that for the inhibition of 45Ca2+ uptake. Nifedipine failed to affect the Ang II-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation. BAY K 8644 (2 microM), a Ca2+ channel activator, plus partially depolarizing concentration of KCl (14 mM), induced 45Ca2+ uptake and [3H]IP3 accumulation. Ionomycin (1 microM and 10 microM), a Ca2+ ionophore, also induced 45Ca2+ uptake and [3H]IP3 accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner. Pretreatment of the cells with protein kinase C activator, 100 nM 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate, for 10 min, partially inhibited CCh and Ang II-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation, but failed to inhibit the high K(+)-induced accumulation. Furthermore, the effects of high K+ and Ang II on the IP3 accumulation was additive. Ang II and CCh induced a rapid and transient increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (1,4,5-IP3) accumulation (5 s) followed by a slower accumulation of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (1,3,4-IP3). High K+ evoked an increase in 1,3,4-IP3 accumulation but obvious accumulation of 1,4,5-IP3 could not be detected. In Ca2(+)-depleted medium, high K(+)-induced [3H]IP3 accumulation was completely abolished, whereas [3H]IP3 accumulation induced by CCh and Ang II was partially inhibited. These results demonstrate the existence of the Ca2+ uptake-triggered mechanism of IP3 accumulation represented by high K+, and also the Ca2+ uptake-independent mechanism of IP3 accumulation represented by Ang II in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. Mechanism of CCh-induced IP3 accumulation has an intermediate property between those of high K+ and Ang II. 相似文献

Ca2+ release triggered by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) has been measured in saponin-permeabilized human platelets with quin2 or 45Ca2+. Ca2+ was sequestered by intracellular organelles in the presence of ATP, and IP3 released half of the sequestered Ca2+. The addition of cyclic AMP (cAMP) to permeabilized platelets transiently accelerated Ca2+ sequestration, but did not alter the steady-state level. In contrast, IP3-induced Ca2+ release was greatly inhibited by cAMP. Phorbol myristate acetate, an activator of protein kinase C did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release. These results indicate that cAMP may be involved in the regulation of IP3-induced Ca2+ release in human platelets. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) was introduced into the cytoplasm of characean algae in two different ways: (i) by iontophoretic injection into cytoplasm-enriched fragments from Chara and (ii) by adding InsP3 to the permeabilization medium of locally permeabilized cells of Nitella. In both systems this operation induced a depolarization of the membrane potential, ranging from a few mV to sequences of action potentials. The effect of InsP3 on locally permeabilized Nitella cells was abolished when InsP3 was added together with 30 mM EGTA. When inositol 1,4-bisphosphate or myo-inositol were substituted for InsP3 in this system, there was no change in the membrane potential. On the other hand, increasing the free Ca2+ concentration in the permeabilization medium induced, in a similar fashion to InsP3, action potentials. Similarities between InsP3 and Ca2+ action were also observed upon injection into Chara fragments. Both injections increased an inward current. In the first few seconds after injection the current/voltage characteristics of the InsP3-induced current resembled those of the Ca2(+)-sensitive current. Subsequently, differences between the InsP3- and Ca2(+)-induced phenomena became apparent in that the InsP3-induced current continued to increase while the Ca2(+)-induced current declined, returning to the resting level. Our results suggest that these plant cells contain an InsP3 sensitive system that, under experimental conditions, is able to affect membrane transport via an increase in cytoplasmic free Ca2+. 相似文献

The myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-induced Ca2+ mobilization in single saponin-permeabilized and fura-2-loaded parietal cells was analysed by a fluorescence digital image processor. When the cells were incubated with ATP, free cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) increased in some restricted cytoplasmic regions showing discontinuous plateau and in the peripheral cytoplasm showing continuous [Ca2+]i gradient towards the plasma membranes. When treated with IP3, the high plateau enlarged to the entire cytoplasm and (a) new higher plateau(s) appeared and enlarged again in a transient manner. The IP3-induced Ca2+ transient was also observed by fluorescence microphotometry of the single cells or by fluorescence spectrophotometry and 45Ca2+ uptake experiment of the cell population. 相似文献

In the heart, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a pro-hypertrophic and anti-apoptotic peptide. In cultured rat cardiomyocytes, IGF-1 induced a fast and transient increase in Ca(2+)(i) levels apparent both in the nucleus and cytosol, releasing this ion from intracellular stores through an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3))-dependent signaling pathway. Intracellular IP(3) levels increased after IGF-1 stimulation in both the presence and absence of extracellular Ca(2+). A different spatial distribution of IP(3) receptor isoforms in cardiomyocytes was found. Ryanodine did not prevent the IGF-1-induced increase of Ca(2+)(i) levels but inhibited the basal and spontaneous Ca(2+)(i) oscillations observed when cardiac myocytes were incubated in Ca(2+)-containing resting media. Spatial analysis of fluorescence images of IGF-1-stimulated cardiomyocytes incubated in Ca(2+)-containing resting media showed an early increase in Ca(2+)(i), initially localized in the nucleus. Calcium imaging suggested that part of the Ca(2+) released by stimulation with IGF-1 was initially contained in the perinuclear region. The IGF-1-induced increase on Ca(2+)(i) levels was prevented by 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-AM, thapsigargin, xestospongin C, 2-aminoethoxy diphenyl borate, U-73122, pertussis toxin, and betaARKct (a peptide inhibitor of Gbetagamma signaling). Pertussis toxin also prevented the IGF-1-dependent IP(3) mass increase. Genistein treatment largely decreased the IGF-1-induced changes in both Ca(2+)(i) and IP(3). LY29402 (but not PD98059) also prevented the IGF-1-dependent Ca(2+)(i) increase. Both pertussis toxin and U73122 prevented the IGF-1-dependent induction of both ERKs and protein kinase B. We conclude that IGF-1 increases Ca(2+)(i) levels in cultured cardiac myocytes through a Gbetagamma subunit of a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein-PI3K-phospholipase C signaling pathway that involves participation of IP(3). 相似文献

1. The involvement of protein phosphorylation in the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced bursting activity (BA) was evaluated in identified neurons of the snail. Euhadra peliomphala by examining the effect of various protein kinases and their inhibitors on the membrane properties induced by PTZ. 2. In neurons which normally exhibited spontaneous regular firing, PTZ elicited BA, the negative slope resistance (NSR) in the steady-state current (I)-voltage (V) relationship and a reduction of the delayed potassium current (IKD) in a dose-dependent manner. These were inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitors, protein kinase inhibitor isolated from rabbit muscle and N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide. 3. Intracellular injection of catalytic subunit (CS) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase enhanced PTZ-induced NSR and reduction of IKD, as well as a conversion of the BA to a long-lasting depolarization of the membrane, whereas a saturating dose of the CS occluded PTZ action on the NSR and IKD. 4. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), when intracellularly injected during the depolarizing phase of PTZ-induced bursting cycle, changed to a prolonged hyperpolarization of the membrane. This kinase also restored the PTZ-suppressed IKD nearly to the pre-PTZ level. However, when intracellular injection of CaMKII and application of N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide, a calmodulin inhibitor, to the inside and outside of the neuron were simultaneously carried out, neither post-burst hyperpolarization nor restoration of the IKD was observed. 5. Intracellular injection of calmodulin, together with calcium chloride, had little effect on both the BA and reduction of IKD induced by PTZ. 6. Simultaneous application of 40 microM 1-(5-isoquinolinsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine, which selectively suppressed the phosphatidylserine-dependent protein phosphorylation in extracts from Euhadra ganglia, to both the inside and outside of the neuron, did not produce any significant change in the membrane properties induced by PTX. Intracellular injection of protein kinase C also brought about no effect. 7. These findings suggest that PTZ stimulates cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation which, in turn, is involved in the development of NSR and reduction of IKD, leading to the depolarization of the membrane. In addition, we propose that the Ca2+ ions, increased during the depolarizing phase of the BA cycle, form a Ca2+/calmodulin complex and subsequent protein phosphorylation, coupled with the opening of potassium channels, leading to the membrane hyperpolarization. 相似文献

Intracellular pH and Ca(2+) were measured with BCECF- and Calcium Green-dextran during maturation and fertilization of oocytes of the limpet Lottia gigantea. Maturation of oocytes from prophase to metaphase I of meiosis was induced in seawater adjusted to pH 9 with NH(4)OH. Intracellular pH rose during maturation induction, and maturation was also induced by microinjecting pH 8, but not pH 7, HEPES buffer. Intracellular Ca(2+) rose during NH(4)OH-induced maturation, but maturation was not inhibited when the increase was blocked by microinjection of BAPTA. When the metaphase I oocytes were fertilized(), there was an abrupt increase in intracellular Ca(2+), and activation (polar body formation) failed to occur in BAPTA-injected oocytes. Intracellular pH did not rise during fertilization. These observations show that maturation from prophase to metaphase I of meiosis is pH-dependent and activation of the metaphase I oocytes is Ca(2+)-dependent. A Ca(2+) action potential was present in both immature and mature oocytes but was more prominent in mature oocytes whose input resistance was higher. Fertilization produced a long-lasting (17-20 min) Na(+)-dependent fertilization potential with superimposed oscillations resembling Ca(2+) action potentials. 相似文献

Xestospongin B, a macrocyclic bis-1-oxaquinolizidine alkaloid extracted from the marine sponge Xestospongia exigua, was highly purified and tested for its ability to block inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3))-induced Ca(2+) release. In a concentration-dependent manner xestospongin B displaced [(3)H]IP(3) from both rat cerebellar membranes and rat skeletal myotube homogenates with an EC(50) of 44.6 +/- 1.1 microM and 27.4 +/- 1.1 microM, respectively. Xestospongin B, depending on the dose, suppressed bradykinin-induced Ca(2+) signals in neuroblastoma (NG108-15) cells, and also selectively blocked the slow intracellular Ca(2+) signal induced by membrane depolarization with high external K(+) (47 mM) in rat skeletal myotubes. This slow Ca(2+) signal is unrelated to muscle contraction, and involves IP(3) receptors. In highly purified isolated nuclei from rat skeletal myotubes, Xestospongin B reduced, or suppressed IP(3)-induced Ca(2+) oscillations with an EC(50) = 18.9 +/- 1.35 microM. In rat myotubes exposed to a Ca(2+)-free medium, Xestospongin B neither depleted sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) stores, nor modified thapsigargin action and did not affect capacitative Ca(2+) entry after thapsigargin-induced depletion of Ca(2+) stores. Ca(2+)-ATPase activity measured in skeletal myotube homogenates remained unaffected by Xestospongin B. It is concluded that xestospongin B is an effective cell-permeant, competitive inhibitor of IP(3) receptors in cultured rat myotubes, isolated myonuclei, and neuroblastoma (NG108-15) cells. 相似文献

Intracellular Ca2+ mobilization by arachidonic acid. Comparison with myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in isolated pancreatic islets 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Previous studies have demonstrated that myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) mobilizes Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of digitonin-permeabilized islets and that an increase in intracellular free Ca2+ stimulates insulin release. Furthermore, glucose stimulates arachidonic acid metabolism in islets. In digitonin-permeabilized islets, exogenous arachidonic acid at concentrations between 1.25 to 10 microM elicited significant Ca2+ release from the ER at a free Ca2+ concentration of 0.1 microM. Arachidonic acid-induced Ca2+ release was not due to the metabolites of arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid induced a rapid release of Ca2+ within 2 min. Comparison of arachidonic acid-induced Ca2+ release with IP3-induced Ca2+ release revealed a similar molar potency of arachidonic acid and IP3. The combination of both arachidonic acid and IP3 resulted in a greater effect on Ca2+ mobilization from the ER than either compound alone. The mass of endogenous arachidonic acid released by islets incubated with 28 mM glucose was measured by mass spectrometric methods and was found to be sufficient to achieve arachidonic acid concentrations equal to or exceeding those required to induce release of Ca2+ sequestered in the ER. These observations indicate that glucose-induced arachidonic acid release could participate in glucose-induced Ca2+ mobilization and insulin secretion by pancreatic islets, possibly in cooperation with IP3. 相似文献

Calmodulin inhibits inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) binding to the IP3 receptor in both a Ca2+-dependent and a Ca2+-independent way. Because there are no functional data on the modulation of the IP3-induced Ca2+ release by calmodulin at various Ca2+ concentrations, we have studied how cytosolic Ca2+ and Sr2+ interfere with the effects of calmodulin on the IP3-induced Ca2+ release in permeabilized A7r5 cells. We now report that calmodulin inhibited Ca2+ release through the IP3 receptor with an IC50 of 4.6 microM if the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was 0.3 microM or higher. This inhibition was particularly pronounced at low IP3 concentrations. In contrast, calmodulin did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release if the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was below 0.3 microM. Calmodulin also inhibited Ca2+ release through the IP3 receptor in the presence of at least 10 microM Sr2+. We conclude that cytosolic Ca2+ or Sr2+ are absolutely required for the calmodulin-induced inhibition of the IP3-induced Ca2+ release and that this dependence represents the formation of the Ca2+/calmodulin or Sr2+/calmodulin complex. 相似文献

The dynamics of carbachol (CCh)-induced [Ca(2+)](i) changes was related to the kinetics of muscarinic cationic current (mI(cat)) and the effect of Ca(2+) release through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs) on mI(cat) was evaluated by fast x-y or line-scan confocal imaging of [Ca(2+)](i) combined with simultaneous recording of mI(cat) under whole-cell voltage clamp. When myocytes freshly isolated from the longitudinal layer of the guinea-pig ileum were loaded with the Ca(2+)-sensitive indicator fluo-3, x-y confocal imaging revealed CCh (10 microM)-induced Ca(2+) waves, which propagated from the cell ends towards the myocyte centre at 45.9 +/- 8.8 microms(-1) (n = 13). Initiation of the Ca(2+) wave preceded the appearance of any measurable mI(cat) by 229 +/- 55 ms (n = 7). Furthermore, CCh-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients peaked 1.22 +/- 0.11s (n = 17) before mI(cat) reached peak amplitude. At -50 mV, spontaneous release of Ca(2+) through RyRs, resulting in Ca(2+) sparks, had no effect on CCh-induced mI(cat) but activated BK channels leading to spontaneous transient outward currents (STOCs). In addition, Ca(2+) release through RyRs induced by brief application of 5 mM caffeine was initiated at the cell centre but did not augment mI(cat) (n = 14). This was not due to an inhibitory effect of caffeine on muscarinic cationic channels (since application of 5 mM caffeine did not inhibit mI(cat) when [Ca(2+)](i) was strongly buffered with Ca(2+)/BAPTA buffer) nor was it due to an effect of caffeine on other mechanisms possibly involved in the regulation of Ca(2+) sensitivity of muscarinic cationic channels (since in the presence of 5 mM caffeine, photorelease of Ca(2+) upon cell dialysis with 5 mM NP-EGTA/3.8 mM Ca(2+) potentiated mI(cat) in the same way as in control). In contrast, IP(3)R-mediated Ca(2+) release upon flash photolysis of "caged" IP(3) (30 microM in the pipette solution) augmented mI(cat) (n = 15), even though [Ca(2+)](i) did not reach the level required for potentiation of mI(cat) during photorelease of Ca(2+) (n = 10). Intracellular calcium stores were visualised by loading of the myocytes with the low-affinity Ca(2+) indicator fluo-3FF AM and consisted of a superficial sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) network and some perinuclear formation, which appeared to be continuous with the superficial SR. Immunostaining of the myocytes with antibodies to IP(3)R type 1 and to RyRs revealed that IP(3)Rs are predominant in the superficial SR while RyRs are confined to the central region of the cell. These results suggest that IP(3)R-mediated Ca(2+) release plays a central role in the modulation of mI(cat) in the guinea-pig ileum and that IP(3) may sensitise the regulatory mechanisms of the muscarinic cationic channels gating to Ca(2+). 相似文献

Activation of cardiac mast cells has been shown to alter parasympathetic neuronal function via the activation of histamine receptors. The present study examined the ability of prostaglandins to alter the activity of guinea pig intracardiac neurons. Intracellular voltage recordings from whole mounts of the cardiac plexus showed that antigen-mediated mast cell degranulation produces an attenuation of the afterhyperpolarization (AHP), which was prevented by the phospholipase A2 inhibitor 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid. Exogenous application of either PGD2 or PGE2 produced a biphasic change in the membrane potential and an inhibition of both AHP amplitude and duration. Examination of prostanoid receptors using bath perfusions (1 microM PGE2 and PGD2), specific agonists (BW245C, sulprostone, and butaprost), and antagonists (AH6809 and SC19220) found evidence for both the PGE2-specific EP2 and EP3 receptors, but not for EP1 or the PGD2-specific prostanoid (DP) receptors. Sulprostone was able to mimic the PGE2 responses in some cells, but not in all PGE2-sensitive cells. Butaprost was able to mimic the PG-induced hyperpolarization in some cells, but did not alter the AHP. Inhibition of specific potassium channels with either TEA, charybdotoxin, or apamin showed that neither TEA nor charybdotoxin could prevent the PGE2-induced AHP attenuation. Apamin alone inhibited AHP duration, with PGs having no further effect in these cells. These results demonstrate that guinea pig intracardiac neurons can be modulated by PG, most likely through either EP2, EP3, or potentially EP4 receptors, and this response is due, at least in part, to a reduction in small-conductance KCa currents. 相似文献

The mechanism underlying the bradykinin (BK)-induced increase of acetylcholine (ACh) release was studied in neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells and their synapses formed onto mouse muscle cells. External application of BK or iontophoretic injection of extrinsic inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) into the cytoplasm of NG108-15 cells produced membrane hyperpolarization in the hybrid cells and an increase in the frequency of miniature end-plate potentials (MEPPs) in paired myotubes. Ba2+ blocked the hyperpolarization in response to BK, but facilitation of MEPPs was still observed. InsP3-dependent facilitation of MEPPs was also observed in cells where the InsP3 injections produced no detectable hyperpolarization or even depolarization. Real-time quantitative monitoring of intracellular free Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) with fura-2 in single NG108-15 cells showed that BK application or InsP3 injection induced an elevation of [Ca2+]i which coincided in time with membrane hyperpolarization recorded from the same cell. The [Ca2+]i rise produced by InsP3 injection started from the single site of injection and that produced by BK began from a deep compartment of the cytoplasm of the NG108-15 cells. The BK- and InsP3-evoked facilitation of MEPPs and the [Ca2+]i rise were relatively independent of extracellular Ca2+. These findings suggest that the BK-induced ACh release results not from membrane potential changes but from a transient InsP3-dependent elevation of [Ca2+]i. 相似文献

The effect of phenylephrine on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels in vascular smooth muscle measured using a protein binding assay system 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study utilizes a protein binding assay system to evaluate agonist-induced changes in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) in rat aorta. Phenylephrine induced a rapid transient increase in IP3 content of rat aorta which was concentration dependent and blocked by prazosin. The concentration response curve to IP3 formation was shifted to the right of the concentration-response curve for contraction in normal calcium-containing buffer but was close to that obtained in calcium-free medium. This suggests that although IP3 may play an important role in mediating release of intracellular Ca2+, other factors (e.g. Ca2(+)-influx) may be involved in determining the magnitude of vascular smooth muscle contraction in Ca2(+)-containing solutions. Both 8-bromo cyclic GMP and sodium nitroprusside significantly attenuated the phenylephrine-induced IP3 formation. Removal of the endothelium did not alter the generation of IP3. 相似文献

Specific binding of cyclic ADP-ribose to calcium-storing microsomes from sea urchin eggs. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) is a metabolite of NAD+ which is as active as inositol trisphosphate (IP3) in mobilizing intracellular Ca2+ in sea urchin eggs. The enzyme responsible for synthesizing cADPR is found not only in sea urchin eggs but also in various mammalian tissue extracts, suggesting that it may be a general messenger for Ca2+ mobilization in cells. In this study I address questions of whether an intracellular receptor for cADPR exists and, if so, whether it is different from the IP3 receptor. A procedure employing nitrogen decompression was used to homogenize sea urchin eggs, and the Ca2(+)-storing microsomes were separated from mitochondria and other organelles by Percoll density centrifugation. Radioactive cADPR with high specific activity was produced by incubating [32P]NAD+ with the synthesizing enzyme and the product purified by high pressure liquid chromatography. The enzyme was membrane bound and was isolated from dog brain extracts by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Partial purification of the enzyme was achieved by DEAE ion-exchange chromatography after solubilization with 3-[(cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate. Specific binding of 32P-labeled cADPR to a saturable site on the Ca2(+)-storing microsomes was detected by a filtration assay. Scatchard analysis indicated a binding affinity of about 17 nM and a capacity of about 25 fmol/mg protein. The binding was not affected by either NAD+ (the precursor) or ADP-ribose (the hydrolysis product) at 0.5 microM but was eliminated by 0.3 microM nonlabeled cADPR. The receptor for cADPR appeared to be different from that of IP3 since IP3 was not an effective competitor at a concentration as high as 3 microM. Similarly, heparin at a concentration that inhibits most of the IP3-induced calcium release from the microsomes did not affect the binding. The binding showed a prominent pH optimum at about 6.7. Calcium at 40 microM decreased the binding by about 50%. These dependencies of the binding on pH and Ca2+ are different from those reported for the IP3 receptor and provide further support that the intracellular receptors for cADPR and IP3 are different. 相似文献

The effects of barbiturates on human platelet function are not fully understood. Since we have already revealed the effects and mechanisms of thiopental, thiamylal, and pentobarbital in platelets, the present study attempted to elucidate (i) the effects of other barbiturates on human platelet aggregation, (ii) the underlying mechanisms, and (iii) the structure-function relationship of barbiturates in platelets. Barbiturates, including amobarbital, butalbital, secobarbital, barbital, phenobarbital, metharbital, and primidone, were examined. Human platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP), epinephrine, and (+)-9,11-epithia-11,12-methano-thromboxane A2 (STA2), a thromboxane A2 analog, was measured using an 8-channel light-transmission aggregometer. The cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured by fluorometer using fura-2 loaded platelets. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation induced by STA2 was determined by a commercially available IP3 assay kit. Amobarbital, butalbital, and secobarbital suppressed ADP-, epinephrine- and STA2-induced platelet aggregation and the STA2-induced [Ca2+]i increase, even when Ca2+ influx was blocked by Ni2+. However, they did not affect STA2-induced IP3 formation. Barbital, phenobarbital, metharbital, and primidone (up to 1 mM) had no effect on ADP- and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation. Thus, we conclude that amobarbital, butalbital, and secobarbital inhibit platelet aggregation by suppressing [Ca2+]i increase without affecting IP3 formation. However, these antiaggregatory effects may not have clinical importance, since the barbiturate concentrations used were higher than clinically relevant ones. The other tested barbiturates had no effects on platelet aggregation. The data indicate that the effects of barbiturates on platelet aggregation differ depending on their chemical structures. 相似文献

Addition of bradykinin to mouse N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells evokes a rapid but transient rise in cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). The [Ca2+]i rise is accompanied by a transient membrane hyperpolarization, due to a several-fold increase in K+ conductance, followed by a prolonged depolarizing phase. Pretreatment of the cells with a Ca2+-ionophore abolishes the hormone-induced hyperpolarization but leaves the depolarizing phase intact. The transient hyperpolarization can be mimicked by iontophoretic injection of IP3(1,4,5) or Ca2+, but not by injection of IP3(1,3,4), IP4(1,3,4,5) or Mg2+ into the cells. Instead, IP3(1,3,4) evokes a small but significant membrane depolarization in about 50% of the cells tested. Microinjected IP4(1,3,4,5) has no detectable effect, nor has treatment of the cells with phorbol esters. These results suggest that, while IP3(1,4,5) triggers the release of stored Ca2+ to hyperpolarize the membrane, IP3(1,3,4) may initiate a membrane depolarization. 相似文献
