Modulation by islet-activating protein of adenylate cyclase activity in C6 glioma cells 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
The cAMP content of intact cells as well as adenylate cyclase of the membrane-rich particulate fractions was studied with C6 glioma cells that had been exposed to the culture medium supplemented with islet-activating protein (IAP), one of the pertussis toxins. Both the increase in the cellular cAMP content in response to a beta-adrenergic agonist and the stimulation of membrane adenylate cyclase by the beta-agonist and/or GTP were markedly enhanced by the IAP treatment of C6 cells, but no change was induced in affinities of the agonist (or an antagonist) or GTP for their respective sites of action (or binding). The concentration of IAP required for the half-maximal enhancement was as low as 1 pg/ml, when the time of cell exposure to the toxin was prolonged to 18 h. No enhancement was observed for the basal cAMP content or basal enzyme activity, nor was activation of adenylate cyclase by Gpp(NH)p (or NaF) affected by IAP treatment. The Vmax value of a specific and low Km GTPase was significantly smaller in the membranes of IAP-treated cells than in those of control cells. Cholera toxin treatment of cells activated adenylate cyclase without exerting any influence on these IAP actions. Thus, IAP would appear to enhance beta-receptor-coupled stimulation of adenylate cyclase, in a manner distinct from cholera toxin, by rendering more GTP available to the GTP sites on the regulatory subunit of the receptor-enzyme system. 相似文献

Many cells develop enhanced adenylate cyclase activity after prolonged exposure to drugs that acutely inhibit the enzyme and it has been suggested that this adaptation may be due to an increase in Gs alpha. We have treated wild-type and Gs alpha-deficient cyc- S49 mouse lymphoma cells with a stable analogue (SMS 201-995) of the inhibitory agonist somatostatin. After incubation with SMS for 24 h, the forskolin-stimulated cAMP synthetic rate in intact cyc- cells was increased by 76%, similar to the increase found in the wild-type cells. Forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in the presence of Mn2+ was also increased in membranes prepared from SMS-treated cyc- cells; however, guanine nucleotide-mediated inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity was not changed despite a small decrease in inhibitory Gi alpha subunits detected by immunoblotting. Pretreatment of cyc- cells with pertussis toxin prevented SMS from inducing the enhancement of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation in intact cells. After chronic incubation of cyc- cells with SMS, exposure to N-ethylmaleimide, which abolished receptor-mediated inhibition of cAMP accumulation, did not attenuate the enhanced rate of forskolin-stimulated cAMP synthesis compared to N-ethylmaleimide-treated controls. These results with cyc- cells demonstrate that an adaptive increase in adenylate cyclase activity induced by chronic treatment with an inhibitory drug can occur in the absence of expression of Gs alpha. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that during embryonic development of the chick heart between days 2 1/2 and 10 days in ovo, muscarinic cholinergic inhibition of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity increased 4-fold, and the sensitivity of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity to inhibition by carbamylcholine increased 26-fold. Although the number of muscarinic receptors remained constant between days 2 1/2 and 10 in ovo, the levels of a 39- and 41-kDa pertussis toxin substrate increased in parallel with the ability of muscarinic agonist to inhibit adenylate cyclase activity (Liang. B.T., Hellmich, M. R., Neer, E. J., and Galper, J. B. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 9011-9021). These data are consistent with the hypothesis that between days 2 1/2 and 10 in ovo muscarinic receptors were uncoupled from inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity because of limiting levels of pertussis toxin substrates. In the current studies, in order to test this hypothesis homogenates of embryonic chick hearts 3 1/2 days in ovo were reconstituted with membranes from hearts of hatched chicks. In order to rule out reconstitution by factors from hatched chick hearts other than pertussis toxin substrates, muscarinic receptors from hatched chick hearts were inactivated by covalent binding of benzilycholine mustard and adenylate cyclase inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide prior to reconstitution. Reconstitution of benzilylcholine mustard/N-ethylmaleimide treated hatched chick heart membranes with homogenates of embryonic chick hearts 3 1/2 days in ovo resulted in a 2 1/2-fold increase in the ability of carbamylcholine to inhibit adenylate cyclase activity and reconstitution of hatched chick heart membranes with homogenates of hearts 2 1/2 days in ovo resulted in an approximately 10-fold increase in the sensitivity of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity to inhibition by carbamylcholine. Membranes from hearts of hatched chicks which had been injected with pertussis toxin were incapable of reconstituting muscarinic inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity in homogenates of hearts 3 1/2 days in ovo. These data support the conclusion that early in embryonic development coupling of muscarinic receptors to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity is limited by the availability of a pertussis toxin substrate. 相似文献

Attenuation of chick heart adenylate cyclase by muscarinic receptors after pertussis toxin treatment
K K McMahon R D Green M M Hosey 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1985,126(1):622-629
Pertussis toxin selectively modifies the function of Ni, the inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein of the adenylate cyclase complex. In chick heart membranes, guanine nucleotide activation of Ni resulted in a decrease in the apparent affinity of the muscarinic receptor for the agonist oxotremorine, inhibition of basal adenylate cyclase activity, and the attenuation of adenylate cyclase by oxotremorine. Treatment of chicks with pertussis toxin caused the covalent modification of 80-85% of cardiac Ni. After this treatment Gpp(NH)p had no effect on muscarinic receptor affinity and GTP stimulated basal adenylate cyclase activity. In contrast, the GTP-dependent attenuation of adenylate cyclase caused by muscarinic receptors was unaffected. 相似文献

Muscarinic receptor-mediated increase in cAMP levels in SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Stimulation of muscarinic cholinergic receptors in SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells resulted in a 1.5-4 fold increase in intracellular cAMP levels. This unusual response was sensitive to atropine and pirenzepine but insensitive to pertussis toxin. It was observable regardless of whether basal, PGE1- or forskolin-stimulated cAMP levels were measured. The half-maximal concentration for carbachol-stimulation of cAMP levels (6 microM) was similar to that for the previously determined carbachol-induced stimulation of phosphoinositide turnover in these cells, suggesting that the former is mediated by the latter. These data indicate that cross-talk between the phosphoinositide turnover system and the adenylate cyclase system results in increased cAMP levels in SK-N-SH cells in response to muscarinic receptor stimulation. 相似文献

The regulation by cAMP of cholesterol side-chain cleavage activity and the synthesis of immunoisolated cytochrome P-450scc and adrenodoxin proteins was investigated in primary cultures of swine ovarian (granulosa) cells. Administration of a novel adenylate cyclase toxin isolated from Bordetella pertussis increased granulosa-cell cAMP accumulation up to 200-fold over basal. These effects were additive with those of FSH, forskolin, and cholera toxin. In contrast, bacterial extracts BP 347 and BP 348 from mutant strains of B. pertussis that lack either all virulent factors or the adenylate cyclase toxin and hemolysin were devoid of effect. Granulosa-cell cAMP accumulation supported by active bacterial adenylate cyclase was accompanied by 2- to 11-fold, time-dependent increases in [35S]methionine incorporation into immunospecific cytochrome P-450scc and adrenodoxin. These increases in the synthesis of cholesterol side-chain cleavage proteins were associated with enhanced pregnenolone production in response to exogenous sterol substrate, 25-hydroxycholesterol, and augmented progesterone secretion both in the absence and presence of exogenous lipoprotein. Moreover, the effects of Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxin on granulosa cell steroidogenesis were functionally integrated with other regulatory responses, since the non-cAMP dependent effector, estradiol 17-beta, interacted synergistically with bacterial adenylate cyclase in stimulating progesterone production. We conclude that exogenous adenylate cyclase isolated from B. pertussis can be functionally integrated into the cAMP-dependent effector pathway of granulosa cells with a resulting increase in intracellular cAMP concentrations, augmented biosynthesis of progesterone and pregnenolone, enhanced synthesis of immunospecific cytochrome P-450scc and adrenodoxin, and synergistic interactions with a non-cAMP-dependent ovarian effector hormone (estradiol).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Agonists differentiate muscarinic receptors that inhibit cyclic AMP formation from those that stimulate phosphoinositide metabolism 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25
Muscarinic receptor stimulation elicits two distinct biochemical responses in embryonic chick heart cells: inhibition of catecholamine-stimulated cyclic AMP formation and stimulation of phosphoinositide (PhI) hydrolysis. We observe two major differences in the effects of agonists on these responses. First, carbachol and oxotremorine both inhibit cyclic AMP formation, but only carbachol stimulates PhI hydrolysis. Second, the dose-response relationships for the cyclic AMP and PhI responses differ; the half-maximal concentrations of carbachol needed to inhibit cAMP accumulation and stimulate PhI hydrolysis are 2 X 10(-7) and 2 X 10(-5) M, respectively. We carried out radioligand binding studies on intact chick heart cells to determine whether these data could be explained in terms of different agonist binding states of the muscarinic receptor. In intact cells, carbachol competes for [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate-binding sites with high and low affinity, while oxotremorine shows only high affinity binding. We suggest that the receptor state common to both agonists is the state associated with inhibition of adenylate cyclase, while the very low affinity binding site seen only with carbachol is associated with the PhI response. We also consider the possibility that both responses are caused by a single receptor state that is efficiently coupled to adenylate cyclase inhibition and inefficiently coupled to PhI hydrolysis. Whichever mechanism is correct, our findings demonstrate that muscarinic receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase and the PhI response can be differentiated by virtue of their sensitivity to agonist and the efficiency with which some agonists induce receptor change and elicit receptor-mediated biochemical responses. 相似文献

Somatostatin inhibits agonist-stimulated cAMP synthesis and ACTH secretion from mouse pituitary tumor cells. It also decreases basal hormone release without affecting cAMP levels and inhibits ACTH secretion in response to agonists whose action is independent of prior cAMP synthesis. These inhibitory effects are attenuated by pertussis toxin, suggesting that the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory subunit of adenylate cyclase modulates effectors, other than adenylate cyclase, during transduction of negative hormonal signals. 相似文献

Modification by islet-activating protein of receptor-mediated regulation of cyclic AMP accumulation in isolated rat heart cells 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
Free cells isolated from adult rat heart by the collagenase method were maintained in culture up to 21 h with or without an islet-activating protein (IAP) that had been purified from the culture medium of Bordetella pertussis. Short-term stimulation of beta-adrenergic or glucagon receptors in these cultured cells caused more accumulation of cAMP in cells precultured with IAP (IAP-treated) than in nontreated cells, although there was no significant difference in the baseline (non-stimulated) content of cAMP between these cells. Stimulation of muscarinic cholinergic or adenosine R-site receptors caused a marked inhibition of cAMP accumulation in nontreated cells in either the presence or absence of a beta-agonist (or glucagon); no such inhibition was essentially observed in IAP-treated cells. These actions of IAP developed gradually and were dose-dependent with the half-maximal concentration of approximately 80 ng/ml in culture. It is concluded that IAP may exert its unique influence on the heart cell membrane causing profound modification of the coupling mechanism involved in the receptor-mediated activation or inhibition of adenylate cyclase. This action of IAP differs clearly from that of cholera toxin which activates adenylate cyclase rather independently of the receptor functions in heart cells. 相似文献

Pretreatment of A-10 cells with pertussis toxin had no effect on [arginine]vasopressin-mediated inhibition of cyclic nucleotide accumulation. Pretreatment of the cells with the same concentration of pertussis toxin produced 90-95% inhibition of [32P]ADP ribosylation in membranes, suggesting that these cells possess pertussis-toxin substrate and that the toxin enters the cells to reach its site of action. The functional integrity of the pertussis-toxin substrate in these cells is confirmed by the observation that in these cell membranes increasing concentrations of GTP inhibited basal, forskolin- and NaF-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities, and this inhibition was abolished when the cells were pretreated with pertussis toxin. In addition, thrombin-mediated inhibition of isoprenaline-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation was also inhibited by pertussis-toxin pretreatment of the cells. These data suggest that, unlike thrombin, [arginine]vasopressin-induced inhibitory effects on cyclic nucleotide accumulation in smooth-muscle cells are not mediated by pertussis-toxin substrate. 相似文献

Heterologous desensitization of adenylate cyclase with prostaglandin E1 alters sensitivity to inhibitory as well as stimulatory agonists 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Adenylate cyclase in cultured human fibroblasts is activated by prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) or beta-adrenergic agonists, e.g., isoproterenol, and inhibited by muscarinic agonists. Incubation with PGE1 reduced adenylate cyclase responsiveness to both PGE1 and isoproterenol; this so-called heterologous desensitization is believed to result from impaired function of the stimulatory guanyl nucleotide-binding protein of the cyclase complex. The effect of heterologous desensitization by PGE1 on inhibition of adenylate cyclase by the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine was examined. Muscarinic inhibition of basal and isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP accumulation was attenuated following exposure to PGE1; the concentration of oxotremorine required for half-maximal inhibition of cAMP accumulation was increased. In both intact cells and membrane preparations the number of binding sites for [3H]scopolamine, a muscarinic antagonist, was unaltered by desensitization. Following exposure to PGE1, receptor affinity for oxotremorine, assessed by competition with [3H] scopolamine, and the guanyl nucleotide sensitivity of agonist binding were reduced. The amount of inhibitory guanyl nucleotide-binding regulatory protein available for [32P]ADP-ribosylation by pertussis toxin was unaltered by desensitization. Thus, heterologous desensitization of adenylate cyclase with the stimulatory agonist PGE1 alters sensitivity to inhibitory as well as stimulatory ligands. 相似文献

L-Histidine and imidazole (the histidine side chain) significantly increase cAMP accumulation in intact LLC-PK1 cells. This effect is completely inhibited by isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX). Histidine and imidazole stimulate cAMP phosphodiesterase activity in soluble and membrane fractions of LLC-PK1 cells suggesting that the IBMX-sensitive effect of these agents to stimulate cAMP formation is not due to inhibition of cAMP phosphodiesterase. Histidine and imidazole but not alanine (the histidine core structure) increase basal, GTP-, forskolin-, and AVP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 membranes. Two other amino acids with charged side chains (aspartic and glutamic acids) increase AVP-stimulated but neither basal- nor forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. This suggests that multiple amino acids with charged side chains can regulate selected aspects of adenylate cyclase activity. To better define the mechanism of histidine regulation of adenylate cyclase, membranes were detergent-solubilized which prevents histidine and imidazole potentiation of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity and suggests that an intact plasma membrane environment is required for potentiation. Neither pertussis toxin nor indomethacin pretreatment alter imidazole potentiation of adenylate cyclase. IBMX pretreatment of LLC-PK1 membranes also prevents imidazole to potentiate adenylate cyclase activity. Since IBMX inhibits adenylate cyclase coupled adenosine receptors, LLC-PK1 cells were incubated in vitro with 5'-N-ethylcarboxyamideadenosine (NECA) which produced a homologous pattern of desensitization of NECA to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity. Despite homologous desensitization, histidine and imidazole potentiation of adenylate cyclase was unaltered. These data suggest that histidine, acting via an imidazole ring, potentiates adenylate cyclase activity and thereby increases cAMP formation in cultured LLC-PK1 epithelial cells. This potentiation requires an intact plasma membrane environment, occurs independent of a pertussis toxin-sensitive substrate and of products of cyclooxygenase, and is inhibited by IBMX. This IBMX-sensitive pathway does not involve either inhibition of cAMP phosphodiesterase activity or a stimulatory adenosine receptor coupled to adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Inhibition of monocyte oxidative responses by Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase toxin 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Bordetella pertussis and the other Bordetella species produce a novel adenylate cyclase toxin which enters target cells to catalyze the production of supraphysiologic levels of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). In these studies, dialyzed extracts from B. pertussis containing the adenylate cyclase toxin, a partially purified preparation of adenylate cyclase toxin, and extracts from transposon Tn5 mutants of B. pertussis lacking the adenylate cyclase toxin, were used to assess the effects of adenylate cyclase toxin on human peripheral blood monocyte activities. Luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence of monocytes stimulated with opsonized zymosan was inhibited greater than 96% by exposure to adenylate cyclase toxin-containing extract, but not by extracts from adenylate cyclase toxin-deficient mutants. The chemiluminescence responses to particulate (opsonized zymosan, Leishmania donovani, and Staphylococcus aureus) and soluble (phorbol myristate acetate) stimuli were inhibited equivalently. The superoxide anion generation elicited by opsonized zymosan was inhibited 92% whereas that produced by phorbol myristate acetate was inhibited only 32% by B. pertussis extract. Inhibition of oxidative activity was associated with a greater than 500-fold increase in monocyte cAMP levels, but treated monocytes remained viable as assessed by their ability to exclude trypan blue and continued to ingest particulate stimuli. The major role of the adenylate cyclase toxin in the inhibition of monocyte oxidative responses was demonstrated by: 1) little or no inhibition by extracts from B. pertussis mutants lacking adenylate cyclase toxin; 2) high level inhibition with extract from B. parapertussis, a related species lacking pertussis toxin; and 3) a reciprocal relationship between monocyte cAMP levels and inhibition of opsonized zymosan-induced chemiluminescence using both crude extract and partially purified adenylate cyclase toxin. Pertussis toxin, which has been shown to inhibit phagocyte responses to some stimuli by a cAMP-independent mechanism, had only a small (less than 20%) inhibitory effect when added at concentrations up to 100-fold in excess of those present in B. pertussis extract. These data provide strong support for the hypothesis that B. pertussis adenylate cyclase toxin can increase cAMP levels in monocytes without compromising target cell viability or impairing ingestion of particles and that the resultant accumulated cAMP is responsible for the inhibition of oxidative responses to a variety of stimuli. 相似文献

Inhibitory action of forskolin on adenylate cyclase activity and cyclic AMP generation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In testicular Leydig cells, forskolin causes the expected stimulation of cAMP and testosterone production and potentiates gonadotropin-induced responses, when present in concentrations of 1-10 microM. In addition, when added at lower doses that did not affect cAMP generation and testosterone responses (100 nM), forskolin caused an increase in sensitivity to hormonal stimulation for all cAMP pools (extracellular, intracellular, and receptor-bound) and a 70% reduction in the ED50 for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) stimulation of testosterone production. Forskolin-induced increases in receptor-bound cAMP were less effective than those elicited by hCG in stimulating steroidogenesis. In contrast to the well-known stimulatory actions of forskolin, low doses of the diterpene (in the picomolar to nanomolar range) markedly inhibited the production of cAMP and testosterone. Such inhibitory actions of low-dose forskolin were prevented by preincubation of Leydig cells with pertussis toxin before addition of forskolin and/or hCG. Low concentrations of forskolin also inhibited adenylate cyclase activation by GTP and luteinizing hormone, and this effect was prevented by pretreatment of cell membranes with pertussis toxin. These studies have defined the stimulatory effects of forskolin on Leydig-cell cAMP pools, including potentiation of the hormonal increase in receptor-bound cyclic AMP by forskolin, and have provided additional evidence for the functional importance of cAMP compartmentalization during hormonal stimulation of steroidogenesis. We have also demonstrated a novel, high-affinity inhibitory action of forskolin upon adenylate cyclase activity and cyclic AMP generation, an effect that appears to be mediated by the Ni guanine nucleotide regulatory subunit of adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Pertussis toxin was used to examine the role of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, Ni, in muscarinic-receptor-mediated stimulation of phosphoinositide turnover and calcium mobilization. In cultured chick heart cells, pertussis-toxin treatment inhibited muscarinic-receptor-mediated attenuation of isoprenaline-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation. This finding is consistent with the proposal that pertussis toxin blocks the capacity of Ni to couple muscarinic receptors to adenylate cyclase. In contrast, treatment of chick heart cells or 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells with pertussis toxin did not block muscarinic-receptor-mediated stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis, as measured by [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation in the presence of Li+. Pertussis-toxin treatment also had little effect on basal and muscarinic-receptor-stimulated phosphatidylinositol synthesis, as measured by the incorporation of [3H]inositol into phosphatidylinositol. Activation of muscarinic receptors also enhances the rate of unidirectional 45Ca2+ efflux in 1321N1 cells; this response, like phosphoinositide hydrolysis, was not prevented by pertussis-toxin treatment. Our data suggest that muscarinic receptors are not coupled to phosphoinositide hydrolysis or calcium mobilization through Ni. 相似文献

Pertussis toxin blocks somatostatin's inhibition of stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation in anterior pituitary tumor cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Somatostatin inhibits both forskolin and (-) isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation in AtT-20 cells. Pretreatment of these cells with pertussis toxin prevents somatostatin's inhibitory effects on cyclic AMP production. This pretreatment also enhances the cyclic AMP response to forskolin and (-) isoproterenol without affecting basal cyclic AMP levels. The blockade of somatostatin's inhibitory effect was dependent both on the time of preincubation and concentration of pertussis toxin used. The rise in forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP formation following pertussis toxin treatment preceded the blockade of somatostatin's inhibitory actions. The results suggest that somatostatin acts through an inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein to affect adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

We have examined several features of the regulation of cyclic AMP accumulation in lymphoid cells isolated from peripheral blood of human subjects and in the murine T-lymphoma cell line, S49, S49 cells are unique because of the availability of variant clones with lesions in the pathway of cyclic AMP generation and response. We found that human lymphoid cells prepared at 4 degrees C showed substantially greater cyclic AMP accumulation in response to histamine and the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol than did cells prepared at ambient temperature. The muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbamylcholine and peptide hormone somatostatin failed to inhibit cyclic AMP accumulation in human lymphoid cells and treatment with pertussis toxin (which blocks function of Gi, the guanine nucleotide binding protein that mediates inhibition of adenylate cyclase) only minimally increased cyclic AMP levels in these cells. Thus the Gi component of adenylate cyclase appears to play only a small role in modulating cyclic AMP levels in this mixed population of lymphoid cells. Incubation of whole blood with isoproterenol desensitized human lymphocytes to subsequent stimulation with beta agonist. This desensitization was associated with a redistribution of beta-adrenergic receptors such that a substantial portion of the receptors in intact cells could no longer bind a hydrophilic antagonist. Wild-type S49 lymphoma cells showed a similar redistribution of beta-adrenergic receptors after a few minutes' incubation with agonist. Based on studies in S49 variants, this redistribution is independent of components distal to receptors in the adenylate cyclase/cyclic AMP pathway. By contrast, a more slowly developing, agonist-mediated down-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptors was blunted in variants with defective interaction between receptors and Gs, the guanine nucleotide binding protein that mediates stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Unlike results in human lymphoid cells, S49 cells show a prominent inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation mediated by Gi; this inhibition is promoted by somatostatin and blocked by pertussis toxin. Inhibition by Gi is unable to account for the marked decrease in ability of the diterpene forskolin to maximally stimulate adenylate cyclase in S49 variants having defective Gs. These results emphasize that both Gs and Gi component are important in modulating cyclic AMP accumulation and receptors linked to adenylate cyclase in S49 lymphoma cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The regulation of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides in Dictyostelium discoideum membranes 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Extracellular cAMP induces the activation of adenylate cyclase in Dictyostelium discoideum cells. Conditions for both stimulation and inhibition of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides in membranes are reported. Stimulation and inhibition were induced by GTP and non-hydrolysable guanosine triphosphates. GDP and non-hydrolysable guanosine diphosphates were antagonists. Stimulation was maximally twofold, required a cytosolic factor and was observed only at temperatures below 10 degrees C. An agonist of the cAMP-receptor-activated basal and GTP-stimulated adenylate cyclase 1.3-fold. Adenylate cyclase in mutant N7 could not be activated by cAMP in vivo; in vitro adenylate cyclase was activated by guanine nucleotides in the presence of the cytosolic factor of wild-type but of not mutant cells. Preincubation of membranes under phosphorylation conditions has been shown to alter the interaction between cAMP receptor and G protein [Van Haastert (1986) J. Biol. Chem. in the press]. These phosphorylation conditions converted stimulation to inhibition of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides. Inhibition was maximally 30% and was not affected by the cytosolic factor involved in stimulation. In membranes obtained from cells that were treated with pertussis toxin, adenylate cyclase stimulation by guanine nucleotides was as in control cells, whereas inhibition by guanine nucleotides was lost. When cells were desensitized by exposure to cAMP agonists for 15 min, and adenylate cyclase was measured in isolated membranes, stimulation by guanine nucleotides was lost while inhibition was retained. These results suggest that Dictyostelium discoideum adenylate cyclase may be regulated by Gs-like and Gi-like activities, and that the action of Gs but not Gi is lost during desensitization in vivo and by phosphorylation conditions in vitro. 相似文献

We previously reported that kappa opiates stimulated the release of human placental lactogen (hPL) from human placental cells. In this study, we investigated the role of adenylate cyclase as a potential cellular mediator of such an effect. Incubations with ethylketocyclazocine (EKC) led to a time- and dose-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. The maximal inhibition was 45 +/- 5% of control value after 15 min exposure to 10(-7)M EKC. This inhibition was reversed by opiate antagonist naloxone and was specific to kappa opiate type. Preincubation of human trophoblastic cells with 0.1 microgram/ml Islet-Activating-Protein (IAP; also called pertussis toxin) did not modify basal adenylate cyclase activity but abolished the inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity by EKC, indicating that the effect of opiates on cAMP production was mediated by an IAP-sensitive GTP binding protein. Also, IAP stimulated basal hPL release; the control levels were 22.4 ng/ml and 46.5 ng/ml without and with IAP respectively. However, the EKC-stimulated hPL levels were unchanged by preincubation with IAP. This difference in cAMP and hPL response in IAP-treated cells suggested that the opiate receptors are not directly coupled to adenylate cyclase. This hypothesis was confirmed by 1) experiments on placental membranes showing that in absence of the cytoplasmic elements (membranes only), EKC had no effect on membrane adenylate cyclase and 2) experiments on placental cells showing that dibutyryl-cAMP (dbcAMP) stimulated hPL release. 相似文献

The action of endothelins (Et) on cAMP formation was studied in endothelial cells from rat brain microvessels. Et-1 and Et-3 had no action by themselves. They both inhibited cholera toxin stimulated adenylate cyclase by about 50%. K0.5 values were observed at 2 nM and 40 nM for Et-1 and Et-3 respectively, indicating an involvement of a low affinity Et-3 receptor. Coupling to adenylate cyclase was achieved by a pertussis toxin sensitive mechanism. Another action of endothelins in brain capillary endothelial cells was to stimulate phospholipase C. This action involved a low affinity Et-3 receptor and a pertussis toxin insensitive mechanism. It is concluded that in brain capillary endothelial cells, ETA like receptors are coupled to phospholipase C and to adenylate cyclase via two different mechanisms. 相似文献
