1. Reabsorption of NaCl in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop involves the integrated function of the Na+,K+,Cl- -cotransport system and a Ca2+-activated K+ channel in the luminal membrane with the Na+,K+-pump and a net Cl- conductance in the basolateral membrane. 2. Assay of K+ channel activity after reconstitution into phospholipid vesicles shows that the K+ channel is stimulated by Ca2+ in physiological concentrations and that its activity is regulated by calmodulin and phosphorylation from cAMP dependent protein kinase. 3. For purification luminal plasma membrane vesicles are isolated and solubilized in CHAPS. K+ channel protein is isolated by affinity chromatography on calmodulin columns. The purified protein has high Ca2+-activated K+ channel activity after reconstitution into vesicles. 4. The purified K+ channel consists of two proteins of 51 and 36 kDa. Phosphorylation from cAMP dependent protein kinase stimulates K+ channel activity and labels the 51 kDa band. The 36 kDa band is rapidly cleaved by trypsin and may be involved in Ca2+ stimulation. 5. Opening of the K+ channel by Ca2+ in physiological concentrations and regulation by calmodulin and phosphorylation by protein kinase may mediate kinetic and hormonal regulation of NaCl transport across the tubule cells in TAL.  相似文献

We studied the blocking mechanism of 5-hydroxydecanoate, a novel antiarrhythmic agent, on the ATP-sensitive K+ channel in the single ventricular myocytes using the inside-out patch clamp technique. The channel activity in response to 5-hydroxydecanoate varied with each membrane patch corresponding to the sensitivity to ATP. In this condition the exogenous application of cAMP or cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) obviously recovered the ATP-sensitive K+ channel activity after channel deactivation. By contrast, in membrane patches exhibited low sensitivity to ATP, endogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor (PKI) depressed the channel activity and restored the inhibitory action of 5-hydroxydecanoate and ATP on the channel. These results suggest that PKA-PKI system is involved in the regulatory mechanism of gating activity of the ATP-sensitive K+ channel and the blocking action of 5-hydroxydecanoate and ATP appears to be exerted by potentiating the inhibitory action of PKI on the channel.  相似文献

Modulation of a cloned mouse brain potassium channel   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The mouse brain K+ channel (MBK), previously cloned by others, has been independently cloned and shown to express in Xenopus oocytes. This K+ current (IK) inactivated over a time course of seconds and was sensitive to the K+ channel-blocking reagent tetraethylammonium. When the K+ channel was coexpressed with a cloned mouse brain serotonin receptor (5HT1c) in oocytes, activation of the 5HT1c receptor by a brief application of serotonin resulted in a suppression of the IK amplitude over the next 20 min. IK could also be suppressed by activation of G proteins. Suppression was also caused by intracellular Ca2+ injections and was blocked by intracellular injection of EGTA. Calmodulin antagonists block the IK suppression, but a known protein kinase inhibitor did not block suppression. The 5HT1c suppression was reversible; recovery from suppression was blocked by the protein kinase inhibitor H-7. These data suggest that the IK suppression occurs through a novel mechanism independent of A- or C-type protein kinases; suppression is best explained as being due to the action of a Ca2+/calmodulin-activated phosphatase; recovery from suppression is due to the action of a protein kinase.  相似文献

Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) has been shown to modify receptor-mediated Ca2+ responses in a variety of cells. To assess its possible role in modulating voltage-dependent Ca2+ responses, we examined the effect of tumor-promoting phorbol esters, which activate protein kinase C, on Ca2+ channel function in the PC12 neural cell line. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate reduced K+-depolarization-evoked 45Ca uptake and decreased binding of the Ca2+ channel antagonist [3H] (+)PN200-110 to intact cells. Inhibition of binding was markedly reduced in PC12 membranes, but was restored by reconstituting membranes with protein kinase C activity. Protein kinase C may therefore participate in endogenous regulation of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in mammalian neural cells.  相似文献

A 48-kDa protein kinase was detected in Vicia faba guard cell protoplasts by an in-gel protein kinase assay using a recombinant peptide (KAT1C) of the carboxyl-terminus of an inward-rectifying voltage-dependent K+ channel cloned from Arabidopsis thaliana, KAT1. This protein kinase (ABR* kinase) was activated by pretreatment of guard cell protoplasts with ABA, but not by pretreatment with IAA, 2,4-D, kinetin or GA3. The activation of ABR* kinase was dependent on the time and concentration of ABA. The kinase activity was sensitive to staurosporine and K-252a, protein kinase inhibitors, and insensitive to Ca2+. No ABR* kinase activity was detected in mesophyll cell protoplasts. These characteristics of ABR* kinase are consistent with those of an ABA-responsive protein kinase (ABR kinase) reported previously [Mori and Muto (1997), Plant Physiol. 113: 833]. These results indicate that ABR* kinase phosphorylates the inward-rectifying K+ channel in response to treatment of stomatal guard cells with ABA. The data reported here provide evidence that this ABA-responsive protein kinase may promote ABA signaling by directly phosphorylating guard cell ion channels.  相似文献

The contribution of Ca2+ entry through different voltage-activated Ca2+ channel (VACC) subtypes to the phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) was examined in bovine adrenal-medullary chromaffin cells. High K+ depolarization (40 mM, 3 min) induced ERK phosphorylation, an effect that was inhibited by specific mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors. By using selective inhibitors, we observed that depolarization-induced ERK phosphorylation completely depended on protein kinase C-alpha (PKC-alpha), but not on Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase nor cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Blockade of L-type Ca2+ channels by 3 microm furnidipine, or blockade of N channels by 1 micromomega-conotoxin GVIA reduced ERK phosphorylation by 70%, while the inhibition of P/Q channels by 1 micromomega-agatoxin IVA only caused a 40% reduction. The simultaneous blockade of L and N, or P/Q and N channels completely abolished this response, yet 23% ERK phosphorylation remained when L and P/Q channels were simultaneously blocked. Confocal imaging of cytosolic Ca2+ elevations elicited by 40 mm K+, showed that Ca2+ levels increased throughout the entire cytosol, both in the presence and the absence of Ca2+ channel blockers. Fifty-eight percent of the fluorescence rise depended on Ca2+ entering through N channels. Thus, ERK phosphorylation seems to depend on a critical level of Ca2+ in the cytosol rather than on activation of a given Ca2+ channel subtype.  相似文献

Recent work has indicated that nitric oxide (NO) and its synthesis are important elements of signal cascades in plant-pathogen defence, and are a prerequisite for drought and abscisic acid (ABA) responses in Arabidopsis thaliana and Vicia faba guard cells. NO regulates inward-rectifying K+ channels and Cl- channels of Vicia guard cells via intracellular Ca2+ release. However, its integration with related signals, including the actions of serine-threonine protein kinases, is less well defined. We report here that the elevation of cytosolic-free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) mediated by NO in guard cells is reversibly inhibited by the broad-range protein kinase antagonists staurosporine and K252A, but not by the tyrosine kinase antagonist genistein. The effects of kinase antagonism translate directly to a loss of NO-sensitivity of the inward-rectifying K+ channels and background (Cl- channel) current, and to a parallel loss in sensitivity of the K+ channels to ABA. These results demonstrate that NO-dependent signals can be modulated through protein phosphorylation upstream of intracellular Ca2+ release, and they implicate a target for protein kinase control in ABA signalling that feeds into NO-dependent Ca2+ release.  相似文献

Aldosterone at normal physiological levels induces rapid increases in intracellular calcium and pH in human distal colon. The end target of these rapid signaling responses are basolateral K+ channels. Using spectrofluorescence microscopy and Ussing chamber techniques, we have shown that aldosterone activates basolateral Na/H exchange via a protein kinase C and calcium-dependent signaling pathway. The resultant intracellular alkalinization up-regulates an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent K+ channel (K(ATP)) and inhibits a Ca2+ -dependent K+ channel (K(Ca)). In Ussing chamber experiments, we have shown that the K(ATP) channel is required to drive sodium absorption, whereas the K(Ca) channel is necessary for both cyclic adenosine monophosphate and calcium-dependent chloride secretion. The rapid effects of aldosterone on intracellular calcium, pH, protein kinase C and K(ATP), K(Ca) channels are insensitive to cycloheximide, actinomycin D, and spironalactone, indicating a nongenomic mechanism of action. We propose that the physiological role for the rapid nongenomic effect of aldosterone is to prime pluripotential epithelia for absorption by simultaneously up-regulating K(ATP) channels to drive absorption through surface cells and down-regulating the secretory capacity by inhibiting K(Ca) channels involved in secretion through crypt cells.  相似文献

Studies utilizing cultured muscle cells have shown that myoblast fusion requires extracellular Ca2+ and involves transient coordinated changes in cell membrane topography and cytoskeletal organization. However, neither the mechanisms by which Ca2+ influences these changes nor its cellular sites of action are known. We have investigated the effects of Ca2+ channel modulators and phorbol esters on fusion of embryonic chick myoblasts in culture. Myoblast fusion was inhibited by the Ca2+ channel blockers D600 and nitrendipine and stimulated by the Ca2+ channel activator Bay K 8644. We have obtained evidence that the tumor promoting phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) inhibits fusion through activation of protein kinase C. Myoblasts prevented from fusing by Ca2+ channel blockers or TPA display a distinctive elongated morphology that is characteristic of cells prevented from fusion by Ca2+ deprivation. The inhibition of fusion by D600 and TPA is significantly diminished in the presence of the Ca2+ ionophore A23187. TPA arrest of myoblast fusion was found to be accompanied by an increase in phosphorylation of the 20-kDa light chain of cytoplasmic myosin in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The effects of TPA on myoblast fusion and phosphorylation of myosin light chain were mimicked by the cell permeant diacylglycerol sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol, a potent activator of protein kinase C. The present results suggest that activators of protein kinase C block fusion by interfering with a Ca2+ signal transduction pathway and that this interference may be associated with a protein kinase C catalyzed inhibitory phosphorylation of myosin light chain.  相似文献

The effects of inhibition of the basolateral Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (pump) on the apical low-conductance K+ channel of principal cells in rat cortical collecting duct (CCD) were studied with patch-clamp techniques. Inhibition of pump activity by removal of K+ from the bath solution or addition of strophanthidin reversibly reduced K+ channel activity in cell-attached patches to 36% of the control value. The effect of pump inhibition on K+ channel activity was dependent on the presence of extracellular Ca2+, since removal of Ca2+ in the bath solution abolished the inhibitory effect of 0 mM K+ bath. The intracellular [Ca2+] (measured with fura-2) was significantly increased, from 125 nM (control) to 335 nM (0 mM K+ bath) or 408 nM (0.2 mM strophanthidin), during inhibition of pump activity. In contrast, cell pH decreased only moderately, from 7.45 to 7.35. Raising intracellular Ca2+ by addition of 2 microM ionomycin mimicked the effect of pump inhibition on K+ channel activity. 0.1 mM amiloride also significantly reduced the inhibitory effect of the K+ removal. Because the apical low-conductance K channel in inside-out patches is not sensitive to Ca2+ (Wang, W., A. Schwab, and G. Giebisch, 1990. American Journal of Physiology. 259:F494-F502), it is suggested that the inhibitory effect of Ca2+ is mediated by a Ca(2+)-dependent signal transduction pathway. This view was supported in experiments in which application of 200 nM staurosporine, a potent inhibitor of Ca(2+)- dependent protein kinase C (PKC), markedly diminished the effect of the pump inhibition on channel activity. We conclude that a Ca(2+)- dependent protein kinase such as PKC plays a key role in the downregulation of apical low-conductance K+ channel activity during inhibition of the basolateral Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase.  相似文献

The mechanisms by which 86Rb+ (used as a tracer for K+) enters human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells were investigated. Ouabain-inhibitable bumetanide-insensitive 86Rb+ transport accounted for approximately 70-80% of total, whereas bumetanide-inhibitable ouabain-insensitive uptake accounted for 15-25% of total. K+ channel blockers such as BaCl2 reduced uptake by approximately 5%. Bumetanide inhibited 86Rb+ uptake with an IC50 of 0.5 microM, while furosemide inhibited with an IC50 of about 20 microM. Bumetanide-inhibitable 86Rb+ uptake was reduced in Na(+)-free or Cl(-)-free media, suggesting that Na+ and Cl- were required for optimal uptake via this mechanism. These characteristics are consistent with a Na+, K+, Cl- cotransporter in NPE cells. Treatment of NPE cells for 15 min with phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C, caused a 50-70% decrease in 86Rb+ uptake via the Na+, K+, Cl- cotransporter. Other 86Rb+ uptake mechanisms were not affected. 86Rb+ uptake via the Na+, K+, Cl- cotransporter could be inhibited by other phorbol esters and by dioctanoylglycerol, an analog of diacylglycerol, but not by 4 alpha phorbol didecanoate, an ineffective activator of protein kinase C. Staurosporine, a protein kinase C inhibitor, blocked phorbol ester inhibition of 86Rb+ uptake. These data suggest that a Na+, K+, Cl- cotransporter in NPE cells is inhibited by activation of protein kinase C.  相似文献

In freshly dispersed guinea pig taenia coli myocytes the activity of the large conductance Ca(2+)-activated K+ channel (maxi-K+ channel) predominates. The open probability (Po) of this channel is increased by micromolar concentrations of the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (ISO). Low concentrations of cholera toxin (CTX, 1 pM) and guanosine 5'- O-2-thiodiphosphate (GDP beta S, 0.5 mM) suppress the ISO-induced increase of Po. Higher concentrations of CTX (e.g., 0.5 nM) as well as forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP increase the Po. 1,9-Dideoxyforskolin, the forskolin analogue, which lacks the adenylate cyclase-stimulating effect, does not. A specific protein kinase A inhibitor (Wiptide), applied intracellularly via diffusion from the patch electrode, suppresses the ISO-induced increase of whole-cell outward K+ current during step depolarization. In contrast, intracellularly applied protein kinase C (19-36), a specific protein kinase C inhibitor, has no effect on the whole-cell current. TMB-8, an inhibitor of intracellular calcium mobilization, does not affect either the whole-cell outward K+ current during step depolarization or the Po. These observations show that ISO increases the Po of the maxi-K+ channels in the guinea pig taenia coli myocytes through the G protein-adenylate cyclase-protein kinase A system.  相似文献

Our previous study indicated that TGF-beta1 induced the expression of a transient outward K+ channel (A-type) during the phenotypic transformation of vascular fibroblasts to myofibroblasts. Here, we studied the relevant signal transduction pathway using whole cell recording and a quantitative RT-PCR technique. Results indicate that the protein kinase C (PKC) agonist phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA, 1 microM) could mimic the effect of TGF-beta1 (20 ng/ml) on the expression of an A-type K+ channel and induced a similar A-type K+ current. Moreover, a PKC inhibitor, bisindolylmaleimide I (1 microM), could abrogate the effect of TGF-beta1 on K(V)4.2 expression. This result suggests that a PKC pathway may be involved in the expression of an A-type K+ channel induced by TGF-beta1 in rat vascular myofibroblasts.  相似文献

We previously have reported that the activity of a 240 pS K+ channel varies during the cell cycle in pre-implantation mouse embryos. In the present study, we show that: (i) the cycling of channel activity is not prevented by inhibiting protein synthesis and hence does not involve cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (cdk1)-cyclin B; and (ii) the cycling of channel activity continues in anucleate zygote fragments with a time course similar to that observed in nucleate fragments. We further demonstrate that: (i) persistent activation of the K+ channel in one-cell embryos arrested in metaphase requires the maintenance of an active cdk1-cyclin B complex; and (ii) both DNA synthesis inhibition with aphidicolin and DNA damage produced by mitomycin C prevent the down-regulation of the channel at the start of S phase by a mechanism that requires tyrosine kinase activation. Thus, the 240 pS K+ channel in these cells is controlled by a previously unsuspected cytoplasmic clock that functions independently of the well-known clock controlling the chromosomal cell cycle, but can interact with it.  相似文献

Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from Vicia faba mesophyll protoplasts reveal that outward K+ current is increased in a dose-dependent fashion by intracellular application of cAMP. The enhancement of the outward current by cAMP is specific and it cannot be mimicked by a series of nucleotides that includes AMP, cGMP, and GMP. The enhancement is evoked by micromolar concentrations of cAMP in the presence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine. PKI or Walsh inhibitor, a specific peptide inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), inhibits the outward K+ current. Adenosine 3',5'-phosphothioate, a competitive inhibitor of PKA, has a similar effect. Conversely, the catalytic subunit of PKA (cAMP independent) from bovine brain enhances the magnitude of the outward K+ current in the absence of added cAMP. Our results indicate that cAMP modulates K+ channel activity in mesophyll cells and suggest that this modulation occurs through a cAMP-regulated protein kinase.  相似文献

We examined the effects of interferon-alpha on the ATP-sensitive K+ current (IK,ATP) in rabbit ventricular cells using the patch-clamp technique. IK,ATP was induced by NaCN. Whole-cell experiments indicated that interferon-alpha (5 x 10(2) - 2.4 x 10(4) U/ml) inhibited IK,ATP in a concentration-dependent manner (60.7+/-7.5% with 2.4 x 10(4) U/ml). In cell-attached configuration, interferon-alpha (2.4 x 10(4) U/ml) applied to the external solution also inhibited the activity of the single ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channel by 56.0+/-5.8% without affecting the single channel conductance. The inhibitory effect of IK,ATP by interferon-alpha was blocked by genistein and herbimycin A, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but was not affected by N-(2-metylpiperazyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfoamide (H-7), an inhibitor of protein kinase C and cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These findings suggest that interferon-alpha inhibits the cardiac KATP channel through the activation of tyrosine kinase. The tyrosine kinase-mediated inhibition of IK,ATP by cytokines may aggravate cell damage during myocardial ischemia.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of voltage-sensitive Na+ channels in neurons by protein kinase C slows Na+ channel inactivation and reduces peak Na+ currents. Na+ channels purified from rat brain and reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles under conditions that restore Na+ channel function were rapidly phosphorylated by protein kinase C on their 260-kDa alpha subunit. The phosphorylation reaction required Ca2+, diolein, and phosphatidylserine for activation of protein kinase C, and the rate of phosphorylation of reconstituted Na+ channels was 3- to 4-fold faster than for Na+ channels in detergent solution. Phosphorylation was on serine residues in three distinct tryptic phosphopeptides designated A, B, and C. Up to 2.5 mol of phosphate were incorporated per mol of Na+ channel. Following maximum phosphorylation by protein kinase C, cAMP-dependent protein kinase was able to incorporate more than 2.25 mol of phosphate per mol of Na+ channel indicating that these two kinases phosphorylate distinct sites. However, prior phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase prevented phosphorylation of phosphopeptide B indicating that both kinases phosphorylate the site in this peptide. Phosphopeptide B shown here to be phosphorylated by protein kinase C and phosphopeptide 7 previously shown to be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase co-migrate on two-dimensional phosphopeptide maps and evidently are identical. The reduction in peak Na+ currents caused by both protein kinase C and cAMP-dependent protein kinase may result from phosphorylation of this single common site.  相似文献

The action of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) on Ca2(+)-dependent K+ currents, in dissociated mouse lacrimal cells, was investigated using patch clamp techniques. In whole cell recordings, VIP (10-100 pM) increased the magnitude of the Ca2(+)-dependent K+ current. In single channel recordings, VIP increased the fraction of time the large charybdotoxin-sensitive Ca2(+)-activated K+ channel spent in the open state. The activity of this channel was also increased by adding forskolin or 8-bromo cAMP to the bath. Additionally, application of either cAMP or catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase directly to the cytoplasmic surface of excised inside out patches reversibly lengthened the time Ca2(+)-activated K+ channels spent in the open state. These data suggest that VIP stimulates Ca2(+)-activated K+ channels by a cAMP-dependent pathway in mouse lacrimal acinar cells.  相似文献

Cardiac Ca2+ channels were solubilized and reconstituted into liposomes, and Ca2+ efflux from the proteoliposomes was measured with the fluorescent dye fura-2. The Ca2+ efflux, induced by K+ depolarization, was sensitive to Ca2+ channel modulators such as nifedipine, D-600 and Bay K 8644, and was dependent on the membrane potential. Furthermore, the efflux was increased by phosphorylation of proteoliposomes with cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These results suggest that the reconstituted cardiac Ca2+ channels retain the voltage-dependent gating properties, pharmacological sensitivities and modulation by phosphorylation.  相似文献
