The roles of calmodulin and protein kinase C in the activation of the human neutrophil respiratory burst were characterized pharmacologically. The protein kinase C inhibitors 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) and N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-9) did not inhibit superoxide anion generation by neutrophils stimulated for 30 minutes with N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (FMLP) or 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA). However, H-7 did depress superoxide production during the first 5 minutes following stimulation. In contrast, the specific calmodulin antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) and the dual calmodulin antagonist/protein kinase C inhibitor trifluoperazine (TFP) were potent inhibitors of the response throughout the 30 minute incubation. Stimulation of neutrophils with submaximal doses of FMLP or PMA failed to promote inhibition of the respiratory burst by H-7 or H-9, but did stimulate a respiratory burst response which was not inhibited by TFP or W-7. These results suggest that while protein kinase C may play a role in the initiation of the respiratory burst response, propagation of the response is dependent on calmodulin-dependent processes. The inability of TFP and W-7 to inhibit superoxide anion generation in response to submaximal stimulatory doses of FMLP or PMA suggests that calmodulin-independent processes may also be involved in activation of the respiratory burst.  相似文献

Serum, phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (PDD) and 1-oleoyl-2-acetoy-sn-glycerol (OAG) stimulated O2- release in human histiocytic leukemia U937 cells. The kinetics of O2- release caused by PDD but not by serum or OAG in growing cells differed from those in resting cells. Both the protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl) 2-methylpiperidine (H-7) and calmodulin antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) reduced the superoxide generation induced by these stimuli. H-7 inhibited the O2- release either from growing or resting cells but the effect of W-7 varied according to the growth phase. From these results, it is suggested that activation of protein kinase C and calmodulin-dependent process has an important role in O2(-)-release induced by serum, OAG and PDD, and that the mechanism for PDD-induced O2(-)-release is different in growing and resting cells.  相似文献

Treatment of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60, with 12-o-tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) results in the differentiation into macrophage-like cell. A potent inhibitor of protein kinase C, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine(H-7), suppressed the proliferation of HL-60 cells and also inhibited TPA-induced cell differentiation of these cells. N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide(HA-1004), a weaker analog of H-7, failed to inhibit this TPA-induced cell differentiation. H-7 also inhibited TPA-induced protein phosphorylation in these cells. Thus, protein kinase C-mediated phosphorylation may be involved in the process of TPA-induced HL-60 cell differentiation.  相似文献

The release of histamine and other inflammatory mediators from human basophils is triggered by numerous stimuli, including chemical, physical and receptor-mediated activators. Several mechanisms of cell activation including protein kinase C activation have been proposed to operate in these cells. We used phorbol ester and DiC8 to induce histamine release from human basophils and the protein kinase C inhibitors H-7 and H-9 to inhibit this release. Both DiC8 and TPA induced histamine release were inhibited by H-7 (ID 50 = 37 mcM) and H-9 (IC 50 = 20 mcM). However, anti-IgE, fmlp and A23187-induced histamine release were unaffected. In contrast, the calmodulin antagonists W-7 and perphenazine effectively inhibited histamine release by all five stimuli. Therefore, different biochemical pathways appear to be critical for basophil activation depending on the nature of the stimulus used.  相似文献

Inhibitory actions of 1-(5-isoquinolinyl-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), N-[2-(methylamine)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide [H-8] and polymyxin B on the calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) of rat liver were compared. Using a partially purified liver protein kinase C and an exogenous substrate histone-III S, polymyxin B showed maximum inhibition (IC50, 9.5 microM) followed by H-7 (IC50, 25 microM) and H-8 (IC50, 36 microM). These inhibitors also inhibited protein kinase C-induced phosphorylation of endogenous cytosolic and particulate proteins in a dose-dependent manner though polymyxin B was relatively less effective with the particulate fraction. With the aid of protein kinase-C activators and these inhibitors, seven proteins in cytosolic (Mr 170K, 150K, 43K, 34K, 30K, 25K and 19K daltons) and six proteins in particulate (Mr 150K, 43K, 34K, 25K, 19K and 16K daltons) fractions were identified as probable substrates for protein kinase C in liver. The identity of these proteins remains to be determined.  相似文献

Activation of murine splenic B lymphocytes (B cells) by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was found to be markedly inhibited by 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) and N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8), two potent inhibitors of protein kinases. The higher sensitivity of DNA synthesis, RNA synthesis and protein N-glycosylation activity to H-7, relative to H-8, strongly supports the proposal that protein kinase C plays a critical role in the activation of B cells. A kinetic study on the time of addition of H-7 indicated that protein kinase C promoted the activation process continuously after the addition of LPS.  相似文献

3,7-Dimethoxy-4-phenyl-N-1H tetrazol-5-yl-4H-furo[3,2-b]-indole-2- carboxamide, L-arginate (CI-922) is a potent inhibitory of human neutrophil functions in response to a variety of stimuli. In this report, the effects of CI-922 on specific processes involved in stimulus-response coupling are evaluated. CI-922 does not inhibit human neutrophil phospholipase C or protein kinase C activities. CI-922 is shown to inhibit calmodulin-dependent enzyme activation. The calmodulin antagonist activity is confirmed by calmodulin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. These results suggest that CI-922 inhibits neutrophil activation by preventing the activation of calmodulin-dependent enzymes, implying a critical role for such enzymes in stimulus-response coupling.  相似文献

The combination of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and ionomycin produces a dramatic increase in the incorporation of [2-3H]mannose into Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol and glycoprotein, and the induction of RNA and DNA synthesis in murine splenic B lymphocytes (B cells). The kinetics of the induction processes and the concentrations of PMA and ionomycin required for the optimal response have been defined. While the levels of induction of RNA and DNA synthesis by PMA + ionomycin were similar to the mitogenic response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide, activation by PMA and the calcium ionophore resulted in a threefold higher stimulation in dolichol-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis and protein N-glycosylation. These results indicate that all signalling mechanisms that trigger RNA and DNA synthesis may not be sufficient to produce maximal induction of the N-glycosylation apparatus. 1-(5-Isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), a potent protein kinase C inhibitor, prevented the induction of protein N-glycosylation activity (IC50 = 11 microM), as well as RNA (IC50 = 18 microM) and DNA synthesis (IC50 = 12 microM), two common indices of B cell activation. N-[2-(Methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8) also inhibited the induction of oligosaccharide-lipid intermediate, glycoprotein, RNA, and DNA synthesis, but required higher concentrations than H-7 for 50% inhibition. N-(2-Guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA1004), a potent inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases, had little effect on the activation of the B cell metabolic processes. The H-7-sensitive reactions involved in the induction of RNA and DNA synthesis occurred within 4 h, but induction of lipid intermediate and glycoprotein biosynthesis remained sensitive to H-7 for 10 h after exposure to PMA and ionomycin. Direct in vitro assays in the presence of 0.6% Brij 58 reveal that a cytosolic, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase activity is translocated to a membrane site(s) after treatment with PMA and ionomycin, and the translocated protein kinase is sensitive to H-7. The relative order of potency of the protein kinase inhibitors on the metabolic processes strongly supports the hypothesis that protein kinase C, acting synergistically with Ca2+ mobilization, plays a key regulatory role in the early stages of B cell activation. The synthesis of oligosaccharide-lipid intermediates and protein N-glycosylation are also shown to be induced in B cells activated by PMA + ionomycin.  相似文献

Thrombin, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-rac-glycerol (OAG), cis- or trans-octadecadienoic acids (linoleic and linolelaidic acid) and the synergistic combination of octadecadienoic acids plus OAG lead to the activation of gel-filtered human platelets, i.e. aggregation via protein kinase C (PKC). Platelet activation by thrombin was only slightly suppressed by polymyxin B, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) or staurosporine, all being potent inhibitors of PKC in vitro. The OAG-induced aggregation, however, was strongly inhibited by H-7 or staurosporine but not by polymyxin B. In contrast, octadecadienoic acid-induced aggregation was substantially inhibited only by polymyxin B. Synergistic activation by OAG plus octadecadienoic acids was strongly suppressed by all three PKC inhibitors. Our results indicate (1) that the ability of various compounds to inhibit PKC in vitro does not correlate with their inhibitory effects in intact cells and (2) that platelet activation induced by various PKC activators exhibits differential PKC-inhibitor sensitivity.  相似文献

CI-949 [5-methyl-3-(1-methylethoxy)-1-phenyl-N-1H-tetrazol-5-yl-1H- indole-2- carboxamide, L-arginine salt] inhibits human neutrophil activation in response to stimuli which promote calcium mobilization or calcium influx. This report further examines the effect of CI-949 on phosphoinositide-dependent stimulus-response coupling. At 100 microM, CI-949 had no inhibitory effect on human neutrophil phospholipase C or protein kinase C. In contrast, CI-949 inhibited FMLP-stimulated intracellular calcium mobilization with an IC50 of 8.4 microM. The compound was also a potent calmodulin antagonist, inhibiting calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase activity with an IC50 of 31.0 microM. The calmodulin antagonist activity of CI-949 was confirmed by fluorescence spectroscopy. These results demonstrate that CI-949 may function through inhibition of calcium- and calmodulin-dependent signal transduction processes.  相似文献

The influence of isoquinolinesulfonamides (H-7 and H-8), phenothiazines(trifluoperazine and fluphenazine), and a naphthalenesulfonamide (N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) on stimulated superoxide anion production and phosphatidyl inositol (PI) cycle activity was investigated in the guinea pig alveolar macrophage. All five drugs were able to inhibit superoxide anion production stimulated by n-formyl-nel-leu-phe (FNLP), leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDB). The order of potency was trifluoperazine greater than or equal to fluphenazine greater than H-7 = W-7 greater than H-8. The dose response curves could be shifted to less efficacy by increasing extracellular calcium. By itself, W-7 markedly stimulated 45Ca+2 efflux, fluphenazine and trifluoperazine slightly stimulated 45Ca+2 efflux, while H-7 and H-8 had no effect on 45Ca+2 efflux from macrophages preloaded with 45Ca+2. Consistent with these results, W-7 markedly stimulated PI cycle activity, fluphenazine and trifluoperazine slightly stimulated PI cycle activity, while H-7 and H-8 had no significant effects on PI cycle activity. In addition, W-7 by itself was able to stimulate a weak and short-lived "burst" of superoxide anion production. In order to evaluate whether a site of action of the inhibitors was at protein kinase C and whether protein kinase C was involved in terminating the normally short-lived FNLP- and LTB4-stimulated macrophage activation, fluphenazine and H-7 were used to evaluate the duration of FNLP- and LTB4-stimulated PI cycle activity, at concentrations of the inhibitors that significantly blocked stimulated superoxide anion production. In all cases, FNLP and LTB4 still stimulated PI cycle activity, which still terminated even though protein kinase C was inhibited. These results suggest that all five drugs block protein kinase C, but H-7 was the most specific in its action at protein kinase C, while the phenothiazines and W-7 have multiple sites of action. In addition, these results suggest that protein kinase C may not function to cause the termination of FNLP- and LTB4-stimulated PI cycle activity and subsequent superoxide anion production.  相似文献

Addition of IL-1 (interleukin-1) to human synovial fibroblasts radiolabelled with [3H]arachidonic acid caused a linear dose-dependent increase in arachidonic acid release and a transient rise in labelled diacylglycerol. Protein kinase C activators PMA 4-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and DiC8 (1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol) also increased arachidonic acid release, but the time course observed with PMA was different from that of IL-1. When cultures were treated with PMA for 16-24 h to down regulate protein kinase C, the ability of IL-1 to increase arachidonic acid release persisted to the same extent as in nontreated cultures. In contrast, PMA pretreatment prevented the eight-fold stimulation of arachidonic acid release in response to PMA observed in cultures not previously exposed to PMA. To examine the role of other kinases in IL-1 stimulated arachidonic acid release, cultures were treated with H-7 (1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dichloride), H-8 (N-[2-(methylamino) ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide dichloride), HA1004 (N-(2-guanidoinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide hydrochloride), and staurosporine. IL-1 stimulation of arachidonic acid release was blocked by H-7, H-8 and staurosporine. H-7 was a more potent inhibitor than H-8, suggesting that cAMP dependent kinase did not mediate IL-1 action. Addition of H-7 at various times following IL-1 decreased IL-1 stimulated arachidonic acid release, suggesting that continued protein kinase activity was necessary for IL-1 action. Cycloheximide and actinomycin D inhibited the stimulation of arachidonic acid release by IL-1, PMA or DiC8. The addition of cycloheximide or actinomycin D 15-45 min after IL-1 also inhibited IL-1 stimulated arachidonic acid release, indicating that continued protein synthesis was required for IL-1 action. These results suggest that IL-1 stimulation of acylhydrolyase activity in human synovial cells occurs by a mechanism requiring continued protein synthesis and protein kinase activity and that neither protein kinase C nor cAMP dependent protein kinase is involved.  相似文献

Thrombin stimulated rapid formation of diacylglycerol, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in human platelets. Formation of diacylglycerol and IP3 appeared to precede that of TXB2. Activation of protein kinase C by diacylglycerol combining with Ca+2 mobilization by IP3 has been implicated in mediating arachidonate release. However, addition of the protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) to platelet suspension did not inhibit thrombin-stimulated arachidonate release and TXB2 synthesis, whereas addition of the Ca+2 antagonist, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 8-(diethylamino) octyl ester (TMB-8) or the calmodulin antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) abolished arachidonate release. The correlation of IP3 production with arachidonate release on increasing the concentrations of thrombin was further examined. IP3 production reached near maximum at 0.2 U/ml, whereas TXB2 synthesis continued to increase at 1 U/ml. These results suggest that protein kinase C activation may not mediate arachidonate release and that Ca+2 mobilization by IP3 may only partially account for arachidonate release in platelets stimulated with relatively high concentrations of thrombin.  相似文献

The possible involvement of protein kinase C and Ca2+ metabolism in the proteolytic enzyme release from schistosome cercariae was studied. Cercariae were placed in dechlorinated tap water containing 0.37 mM calcium in the small glass petri dish and exposed to the stimuli (linoleic acid, phorbol esters, and Ca2+ ionophore) with or without inhibitors of protein kinase C or Ca2+ metabolism. The proteolytic activity of incubation medium of cercariae thus treated was measured by the azocoll assay. The penetration response of cercariae induced by linoleic acid, a physiological stimulus, was mimicked by phorbol esters. When exposed to phorbol esters, 0.02 to 2 microM of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and 0.2 to 2 microM of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), cercariae ceased the swimming movement, began a rhythmic thrusting of the anterior tip of the parasite, and released the proteolytic enzyme, but they did not shed the tails. Lowering Ca2+ in water by addition of 5 mM ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), phorbol ester-induced release of enzyme was completely inhibited. Phorbol ester-induced release of enzyme was partially inhibited by 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), an inhibitor of protein kinase C, at a concentration of 100 microM. H-7 alone, at a concentration of 100 microM, did not affect the swimming movement of cercariae. The cercariae were stimulated to release the enzyme by high concentrations (10 and 100 microM) of the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, but enzyme was not released by low concentrations (0.5 and 1 microM) of this drug. Cercariae exposed to A23187 behaved differently from those exposed to phorbol esters. They ceased swimming, showed strong muscle contraction, and shed their tail. A23187 stimulated cercariae to release the enzyme in the water containing 5 mM EGTA. A23187-induced enzyme release was not inhibited by N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7), a calmodulin antagonist, trifluoperazine (TFP), a better calmodulin antagonist on schistosome, or by verapamil, a Ca2+ channel blocker. Linoleic acid-induced release of enzyme was partially inhibited by 0.5 and 5 mM of EGTA and by 1 to 100 microM of H-7. While it was not inhibited by N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8) and N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA-1004), inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase which were used as negative controls of H-7, W-7, TFP, 8-(N,N-diethylamino)octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate (TMB-8), an intracellular Ca2+ antagonist, and verapamil.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

1-(5-Isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), a protein kinase inhibitor, suppressed interleukin 2 (IL-2) production and IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) expression of the human leukemic T-cell line, Jurkat, induced by 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate and phytohemagglutinin-P. This effect was significant at 5 microM H-7 without loss of cell viability. Such activity was not observed with N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA 1004), a potent inhibitor of cGMP- and cAMP-dependent kinases, and a weak inhibitor of Ca2+-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). These findings suggest that protein kinase C is more closely associated with IL-2 receptor expression and IL-2 production of T cells than cGMP- or cAMP-dependent kinases. In addition, N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7), a calmodulin inhibitor, suppressed both IL-2 production and IL-2R expression. Cycrosporin A (Cy A), a potent immunosuppressive drug, markedly inhibited IL-2 production of Jurkat cells whereas it did not affect the IL-2R expression. Thus, the mechanism of action of Cy A appears to differ from that of the protein kinase inhibitor, H-7, and the calmodulin inhibitor, W-7.  相似文献

The effects of the isoquinoline sulfonamides, a class of synthetic protein kinase inhibitors, namely 1-(5-isoquinoline sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (H7), N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline sulfonamide dihydrochloride (H8), N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-isoquinoline sulfonamide dihydrochloride (H9), and N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinoline sulfonamide hydrochloride (HA1004), on the lytic activity of in vivo-produced (H-2b anti-H-2d alloimmune) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) were investigated. The hierarchy of inhibition of lysis shown by these compounds resembled that of their inhibition of Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme (protein kinase C). H7 has the highest affinity for protein kinase C (Hidaka, H., Inagaki, M., Kawamoto, S., and Sasaki, Y. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 5036-5041) and gave the greatest inhibition of lysis by CTL. HA1004 has the weakest affinity for protein kinase C and gave very little inhibition of lysis, whereas H8 and H9 showed intermediate inhibition of lysis. In addition, the effect of the isoquinoline sulfonamides on cellular proliferation was examined. Interestingly, the pattern of inhibition observed for both lymphocytes and tumor cells closely mimicked the effects of these compounds on protein kinase C activity. These results demonstrate that modulation of an early biochemical signal affects both short-term (e.g. CTL-mediated lysis) and long-term (e.g. cellular proliferation) events. These data provide further evidence for the integral role of protein kinase C in the activation of the lytic signal in CTL. In addition, suggestive evidence is provided that protein kinase C, or some other enzyme with similar sensitivity to the isoquinoline sulfonamides, plays an important role in cellular proliferation.  相似文献

The concentration of NADP + NADPH in resting human neutrophils has been measured to be 24.0 +/- 2.7 X 10(-18) mol/cell. Upon activation with opsonized zymosan A, phorbol myristic acetate or N-formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine, neutrophil NADP + NADPH pools increase to 80.5, 84.0, and 54.0 X 10(-18) mol/cell, respectively. These increases in pyridine nucleotide concentration are blocked by the addition of the calcium antagonist 8-(N,N-dimethylamino)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride, while calcium ionophore A23187, in the presence of calcium, will trigger the increase in the absence of other stimuli. Calmodulin antagonists trifluoperazine and N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalene sulfonamide also inhibit stimulus-induced increases in the NADP + NADPH pool. These studies are interpreted as suggesting a role for calcium and calmodulin, and possibly protein kinase C in the regulation of pyridine nucleotide concentration in the activated neutrophil.  相似文献

Effects of 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpeperazine (H-7), a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C in vitro (1), were investigated with regard to stimulus-induced protein phosphorylation of rabbit platelets. While H-7 inhibited the protein kinase C-mediated phosphorylation in 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-stimulated platelets, this compound did not block the Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation in Ca2+ ionophore A23187-stimulated cells. This selective inhibitor of protein kinase C, in intact cells, will facilitate studies on the biological functions of protein kinase C.  相似文献

N-(6-Aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) is known to be a potent calmodulin antagonist and inhibitor of calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. W-7 and 1-(5-isoquinolinyl-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) are inhibitors of protein kinase C and cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases. In C6 glioma cells, W-7 and not H-7 inhibited dose-dependently acid sphingomyelinase, a result indicating the modulation of this lysosomal enzyme by a calmodulin-dependent system. Other lysosomal enzymes, such as beta-glucosidase, alpha-galactosidase, and arylsulfatase A, were unaffected by W-7 and H-7, a finding indicating a selective effect of W-7 on sphingomyelinase.  相似文献

[3H]Arachidonic acid is released after stimulation of rabbit neutrophils with fMet-Leu-Phe or platelet-activating factor (PAF). The release is rapid and dose-dependent, and is inhibited in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-treated rabbit neutrophils. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinoline-sulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) prevents this inhibition. In addition, PMA increases arachidonic acid release in H-7-treated cells stimulated with fMet-Leu-Phe. [3H]Arachidonic acid release, but not the rise in the concentration of intracellular Ca2+, is inhibited in pertussis-toxin-treated neutrophils stimulated with PAF. The diacylglycerol kinase inhibitor R59022 increases the concentration of diacylglycerol and potentiates [3H]arachidonic acid release in neutrophils stimulated with fMet-Leu-Phe. This potentiation is not inhibited by H-7. These results suggest several points. (1) A rise in the intracellular concentration of free Ca2+ is not sufficient for arachidonic acid release in rabbit neutrophils stimulated by physiological stimuli. (2) A functional pertussis-toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide regulatory protein and/or one or more of the changes produced by phospholipase C activation are necessary for arachidonic acid release produced by physiological stimuli. (3) Agents that stimulate PKC potentiate arachidonic acid release, and this potentiation is not inhibited by H-7. These agents produce their actions in part by direct membrane perturbation.  相似文献
