(-)-Norepinephrine and other catecholamines inhibit basal and prostaglandin E1-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities by 35 to 60% in homogenates of NG108-15 neuroblastoma x gloma hybrid cells and markedly reduce adenosine 3'35:'-monophosphate levels of intact cells, but do not affect guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate levels. The specificity of the NG108-15 receptor for ligands is that of an alpha receptor, possibly a presynaptic alpha 2 receptor. The inhibition of adenylate cyclase by norepinephrine is reversed by alpha receptor antagonists such as dihydroergotamine or phentolamine, but not by the beta receptor antagonist propranolol. The effect of norepinephrine on adenylate cyclase activity initially is dependent on GTP; half-maximal inhibition of enzyme activity by norepinephrine is obtained with 0.2 micron GTP. The inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity by norepinephrine is reduced by 10 mM NaF and is abolished by 0.05 mM guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate. Inhibitions of NG108-15 adenylate cyclase mediated by alpha receptors, opiate receptors, and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are not additive; this suggests that the three species of receptors can be functionally coupled to the same adenylate cyclase molecules or molecules regulating the enzyme. 相似文献

Pretreatment of striatal neurons from mouse embryos in primary culture with 17 beta-estradiol (10(-9) M, 24 h) enhanced the ADP-ribosylation of G alpha o,i proteins catalyzed by pertussis toxin (PTX). As estimated by quantitative ADP-ribosylation of G alpha s with cholera toxin and immunoblot experiments using anti-G alpha o and anti-G beta sera, 17 beta-estradiol pretreatment did not modify the levels of the major GTP-binding protein (G protein) constituent subunits G alpha s, G alpha o, and G beta. Thus, 17 beta-estradiol should induce a qualitative modification of these G proteins, perhaps by stabilizing the association of the heterotrimers G alpha o,i beta gamma, which are the targets of PTX. Such a hypothesis is in agreement with observations indicating that 17 beta-estradiol both suppressed the D2 dopamine- and opiate receptor-induced inhibitions of adenylate cyclase activity and enhanced the positive coupling between biogenic amine receptors (D1 dopamine, beta-adrenergic, and A2 adenosine) and adenylate cyclase. In addition, PTX pretreatment, which is known to uncouple receptors associated with Go,i proteins and thus to impair the dissociation of the heterotrimers G alpha o,i beta gamma, mimicks the effects of the steroid on the responses of adenylate cyclase to inhibitory and stimulatory agonists. Finally, the chemical specificity of the steroids was the same in the ADP-ribosylation as in the adenylate cyclase experiments: Testosterone (10(-9) M) mimicked the effects of 17 beta-estradiol, whereas 17 alpha-estradiol, progesterone, and dexamethasone did not.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Increased sensitivity of fat cell adenylate cyclase to stimulatory agonists during fasting is not related to impaired inhibitory coupling system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In rat adipocytes, inhibition of the forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP response by nicotinic acid and N6-phenylisopropyladenosine was unaltered by a 72 h fasting. Under assay conditions favouring inhibition, basal and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase responses to inhibition by GTP and nicotinic acid were also unimpaired by fasting. Under the same conditions, however, low GTP concentrations elicited a clear activatory effect in membranes from fasted but not from fed rats. Fasting failed to alter the incorporation of [32P]ADP ribose into the alpha i-subunit of Ni and the attenuation of nicotinic acid inhibitory action that are both induced by pertussis toxin. These results, demonstrating unimpaired inhibitory control of adenylate cyclase in starved rat adipocytes, suggest that the permissive effect of fasting on the action of stimulatory receptor agonists in fat cells reflects a specific increase in the activity of the adenylate cyclase stimulatory coupling system. 相似文献

Desensitization of the beta-adrenergic receptor, a receptor which is coupled to the stimulation of adenylate cyclase, may be regulated via phosphorylation by a unique protein kinase. This recently discovered enzyme, known as the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, only phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic receptor. To assess whether receptors coupled to the inhibition of adenylate cyclase might also be substrates, we examined the effects of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase on the partially purified human platelet alpha 2-adrenergic receptor. Phosphorylation of the reconstituted alpha 2-adrenergic receptor was dependent on agonist occupancy and was completely blocked by coincubation with alpha 2-antagonists. The time course of phosphorylation of the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor was virtually identical to that observed with the beta-adrenergic receptor with maximum stoichiometries of 7-8 mol of phosphate/mol of receptor in each case. In contrast, the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor, which is coupled to stimulation of phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, is not a substrate for the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. These results suggest that receptors coupled to either stimulation or inhibition of adenylate cyclase may be regulated by an agonist-dependent phosphorylation mediated by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. 相似文献

Effects of chronic oestrogen treatment on catecholamine- and glucagon-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity and glucose output in hepatocytes of castrated male rats were studied. In hepatocytes from male intact or castrated rats, the beta-adrenergic agonist isoprenaline did not stimulate adenylate cyclase activity and glycogenolysis, but glucagon markedly stimulated all these activities. Treatment of castrated animals with 17 beta-oestradiol for 7 days led to the appearance of beta-adrenergic-stimulated increases in both cyclic AMP generation and glucose output. The basal, glucagon- or fluoride-stimulated activities of adenylate cyclase of hepatic membranes prepared from oestrogen-treated rats were similar to those of control animals. Treatment with oestrogen did not influence the number or affinity of beta-adrenergic receptors. In hepatic plasma membranes from control rats, GTP failed to decrease the affinity of beta-adrenergic receptors for agonists, whereas the GTP-induced shift was apparently observed in those from oestrogen-treated animals. These results suggest that oestrogen is able to facilitate the coupling of hepatic beta-adrenergic receptors to the enzyme by increasing the effectiveness of receptor-guanine nucleotide regulation. 相似文献

The effects of the sweet taste inhibitor methyl 4,6-dichloro-4,6-dideoxy--D-galactopyranoside(MAD-diCl-Gal) and a few disaccharides, on the electrophysiologicalresponses of the chorda tympani nerve and on adenylate cyclasein membranes prepared from the anterior tongue epithelium, werestudied in rats. MAD-diCl-Gal inhibited the sucrose stimulationof whole chords tympani responses, and this inhibition was reversible.In addition, MAD-diCl-Gal inhibited the sucrose stimulationof adenylate cyclase activity in lingual (gustatory) membranesin a dose-dependent manner. High concentrations of MAD-diCl-Galabolished the sucrose induced adenylate cyclase activity. Thedisaccharides sucrose, maltose, trehalose and melibiose stimulatedboth chords tympani nerve responses and adenylate cyclase activity.These stimulations were dose dependent. Sucrose was the mostpotent stimulator of the chorda tympani nerve. Other disaccharidesresulted in lower responses than sucrose. Sucrose was also amore effective stimulus than maltose for adenylate cyclase activity.In contrast to electrophysiological data, trehalose and melibiosestimulated the adenylate cyclase activity to the same extentas sucrose. The results of this study support the suggestionof cAMP involvement in the cellular transduction of sweet tastein the rat. 相似文献

An antibody (RM) raised against the carboxyl-terminal decapeptide of the alpha subunit of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Gs alpha) has been used to study the interaction of Gs alpha with bovine brain adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1]. RM antibody immunoprecipitated about 60% of the solubilized adenylate cyclase preactivated with either GTP-gamma-S or AlF4-. In contrast, RM antibody immunoprecipitated about 5% of the adenylate cyclase not preactivated (control) and 15% of the adenylate cyclase pretreated with forskolin. Adenylate cyclase solubilized from control membranes or GTP-gamma-S preactivated membranes was partially purified by using forskolin-agarose affinity chromatography. The amount of Gs alpha protein in the partially purified preparations was determined by immunoblotting with RM antibody. There was 3-fold more Gs alpha detected in partially purified adenylate cyclase from preactivated membranes than in the partially purified adenylate cyclase from control membranes. Partially purified adenylate cyclase from preactivated membranes was immunoprecipitated with RM antibody and the amount of adenylate cyclase activity immunoprecipitated (65% of total) corresponded to the amount of Gs alpha protein immunoprecipitated. Only 15% of the partially purified adenylate cyclase from control membranes was immunoprecipitated. The presence of other G proteins in the partially purified preparations of adenylate cyclase was investigated by using specific antisera that detect Go alpha, Gi alpha, and G beta. The G beta protein was the only subunit detected in the partially purified preparations of adenylate cyclase and the amount of G beta was about the same in adenylate cyclase from preactivated membranes and from control membranes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The Muscarinic Receptor Adenylate Cyclase Complex of Rat Striatum: Desensitization Following Chronic Inhibition of Acetylcholinesterase Activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Chronic inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity by treatment with diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) decreased the capacity of acetylcholine (ACh) acting at a muscarinic receptor to inhibit basal adenylate cyclase activity in homogenates from rat striatum. There was also a loss of the capacity of ACh to inhibit the activation of adenylate cyclase by dopamine. The desensitization of the muscarinic receptor adenylate cyclase complex was associated with a marked attenuation of the capacity of ACh to stimulate a high-affinity GTPase activity present in striatal membranes. The EC50 value of ACh for inhibiting adenylate cyclase and for stimulating GTPase activity increased following treatment with DFP, while the Hill coefficient for both responses was unaltered. 相似文献

In mature animals, thyroid hormone produces parallel up-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptor binding sites and their linkage to adenylate cyclase; during development, these same processes may be critical in establishing the set-point for subsequent adrenergic reactivity. In the current study, we administered triiodothyronine to neonatal rats for the first five days postpartum and evaluated [125I]pindolol binding capabilities and adenylate cyclase activity in membrane preparations from heart and kidney. In the heart, hyperthyroidism elicited an initial increase in receptor density, with subsequent deficits and an eventual return to normal values by young adulthood. In contrast, the ability of isoproterenol, a beta-adrenergic agonist, to stimulate adenylate cyclase was enhanced regardless of whether receptor numbers were increased or decreased; the same effects were also present for basal adenylate cyclase activity and non-receptor-mediated stimulation by forskolin. Enhanced cyclase activity involved both increases in the magnitude of response as well as accelerated onset of the postweaning peak of enzyme activity, results which suggest a direct impact of thyroid status on the ontogenetic expression of adenylate cyclase itself. The kidney, which possesses less efficient beta-receptor coupling to adenylate cyclase in the neonate, was less drastically affected by triiodothyronine for either beta-receptor binding sites or enzyme activity. As we had previously shown that neonatal hyperthyroidism uncouples beta-receptors from growth-related enzymes, such as ornithine decarboxylase, we also evaluated whether the promotion of adenylate cyclase responses was mechanistically linked to effect on ornithine decarboxylase; administration of cyclic AMP analogs to 5 days-old rats led to inhibition of the enzyme in the heart, whereas the same treatment in 9 days-old animals was ineffective. These data suggest that thyroid hormone differentially regulates the development of beta-receptors as well as adenylate cyclase and ornithine decarboxylase, with preferential effects on tissues, such as the heart, that already possess efficient linkage of the receptors to cell transduction mechanisms at birth. 相似文献

In rat fat cell membranes, a 72-hour fasting fails to alter the adenylate cyclase stimulatory responses to Mn2+, forskolin and cholera toxin and the cholera toxin catalyzed [alpha-32P] ADP ribose incorporation into the Mr = 42,000 and 46,000/48,000 alpha s peptides of Ns. In contrast, dose-response curves for GTP-stimulation of basal and isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase display higher maximal responses in fasted rats under conditions restraining (2 mM Mg2+) but not promoting (10 mM Mg2+) the dissociation of Ns. Moreover, at 10 mM Mg2+, the sensitivity of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase to GTP is clearly increased in fasted rats. Finally, fasting reduces by 40% the lag-phase of adenylate cyclase activation by Gpp(NH)p. Taken together, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that the permissive effect of fasting on the fat cell adenylate cyclase response to stimulatory agonists is related to increased ability of Ns and the ternary H.R.Ns. complex to dissociate which is likely due to enhanced Ns affinity for guanine nucleotides. 相似文献

The influence of sex steroid and pregnancy on the tissue concentration, uterine motor effect and receptor binding of VIP has been studied in the female genital tract of pregnant rabbits and oophorectomized rabbits during progesterone and/or oestrogen substitution. The concentration of immunoreactive VIP was high in the vagina and cervix, and lower in the uterine body of both pregnant and non-pregnant rabbits. A significant decrease in the VIP concentration (pmol/g wet weight) of the uterine body was observed toward term of pregnancy. The total uterine content of VIP, however, seems unchanged. Treatment of oophorectomized rabbits with ovarian steroids had no effect on the VIP concentration. The sensitivity for and potency of VIP on the relaxation of uterine muscle was significantly higher in oophorectomized rabbits treated with a combination of progesterone and oestrogen than in control rabbits. No difference was observed between non-pregnant and pregnant rabbits. The degradation and binding affinity for 125I-labelled VIP was highest in oophorectomized rabbits substituted with both oestrogen and progesterone. In the pregnant rabbits, the amount of receptors was decreased near term. In conclusion, sex steroids are able to influence the motor effect of VIP at the receptor level, but have no effect on the VIP concentration in the female genital tract. 相似文献

Dual regulation of adenylate cyclase and guanylate cyclase: alpha 2-adrenergic signal transduction in adrenocortical carcinoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Isolated adrenocortical carcinoma cells of rat contain alpha 2- and beta-adrenergic receptors. When these cells are incubated with alpha 2-adrenergic agonists, there is a concentration-dependent increase of cyclic GMP that is blocked by the alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist yohimbine but not by the beta-antagonist propranolol. Concomitantly, both p-aminoclonidine (20 microM) and clonidine (100 microM), the alpha 2-adrenergic agonists, stimulate membrane guanylate cyclase activity. In calcium free medium there is no alpha 2-agonist-dependent increase in cyclic GMP. Isoproterenol, a beta-agonist, and forskolin cause an increase in cyclic AMP but not cyclic GMP. The cyclic AMP increase induced by isoproterenol is blocked by propranolol but not by yohimbine. Isoproterenol- and forskolin-dependent increases in cyclic AMP are inhibited by p-aminoclonidine and the inhibition is relieved by yohimbine. These results indicate a dual regulation of guanylate cyclase and adenylate cyclase by the alpha 2-receptor signal: guanylate cyclase is coupled to the receptor in a positive fashion, whereas adenylate cyclase is coupled in a negative fashion. Calcium is obligatory in the cyclic GMP-mediated response. 相似文献

Heterologous desensitization of the inhibitory A1 adenosine receptor-adenylate cyclase system in rat adipocytes. Regulation of both Ns and Ni 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Adenosine, acting via A1 adenosine receptors, can inhibit adenylate cyclase activity in adipocytes. To assess the effects of chronic adenosine agonist exposure on the A1 adenosine receptor system of adipocytes, rats were infused with (-)-phenylisopropyladenosine or vehicle for 6 days and membranes were prepared. Basal as well as isoproterenol-, sodium fluoride-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were significantly increased (approximately 2-fold) in membranes from treated animals. (-)-Phenylisopropyladenosine-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was significantly (p = 0.0001) attenuated in membranes from treated rats (20.1 +/- 2.1% inhibition) versus controls (31.6 +/- 2.3% inhibition). Prostaglandin E1-induced inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was also attenuated: 11.7 +/- 3.6 versus 23.2 +/- 4.6% (p = 0.001). Using the A1 adenosine receptor agonist radioligand (-)-N6-(3-[125I]iodo-4-hydroxyphenylisopropyl)adenosine, 32% fewer high affinity binding sites were detected in membranes from treated animals (p less than 0.04). Photoaffinity labeling with N6-2-(3-[125I]iodo-4-azidophenyl)ethyladenosine revealed no gross difference in receptor structure. The number of beta-adrenergic receptors as well as the percentage of receptors in the high affinity state as assessed by (-)-3-[125I]iodocyanopindolol binding were the same in both groups. In membranes from treated rats, the amount of [alpha-32P]NAD incorporated by pertussis toxin into the alpha subunit of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Ni) was decreased by 37 +/- 11%. Concurrently, the quantity of label incorporated by cholera toxin into the alpha subunit of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Ns) was increased by 44 +/- 14% in treated membranes. Finally, the capacity of Ns solubilized from treated membranes to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity when reconstituted into cyc- S49 lymphoma cell membranes was enhanced by approximately 50% compared to control. Thus, heterologous desensitization, manifested by a diminished capacity to inhibit adenylate cyclase and an enhanced responsiveness to stimulatory effectors, can be induced in the A1 adenosine receptor-adenylate cyclase system of adipocytes. A decrease in Ni alpha subunit concomitant with an increase in Ns alpha subunit quantity and activity may represent the biochemical mechanism of desensitization in this system. 相似文献

Two receptor systems for oestrogens have been demonstrated in the uterus: the cytosol-nuclear receptor system and the eosinophil receptor system. It has been proposed that the cytosol-nuclear receptor system mediates the genomic response to oestrogens in the uterus, while the eosinophil receptor system is thought to mediate the uterine edema and other early oestrogenic responses in the uterus. Cortisol is known to decrease drastically the number of eosinophils in the blood and therefore to limit their availability for migration to the uterus. The present results show that cortisol also drastically reduces both the oestrogen-induced uterine eosinophilia and the uterine wet weight responses, but does not interfere with the oestrogen-induced uterine RNA and protein increases. Oestradiol-17 beta has a higher affinity than oestriol for the cytosol-nuclear receptors and is now found to be the more potent oestrogen in inducing the genomic activation in the uterus. Estriol has a higher affinity than oestradiol-17 beta for the eosinophil receptors, and therefore, oestriol is the stronger oestrogen in inducing those oestrogenic effects which are mediated by the eosinophil receptor system. We conclude that the eosinophil receptor system for oestrogens is a new system, independent of Jensen's cytosol-nuclear receptor system, and this eosinophil receptor system is involved in the mechanism of oestrogen action in the uterus. 相似文献

The administration of oestradiol-17 beta or ethynyloestradiol as well as the synthetic progestogen norethisterone acetate resulted in translocation of the oestrogen receptor. Progesterone and the synthetic progestogen (+)-norgestrel were ineffective. The increases in nuclear oestrogen receptor content 1 h after injection of each steroid were similar but different subsequently. The increase with oestradiol-17 beta extended for 3--6 h and for at least 9 h with ethynyloestradiol. With norethisterone acetate, nuclear content was still increased after 24 h. Oestrogen injection resulted in cytosol receptor depletion and a 'deficit' in receptor content extending for 6 h, whereas norethisterone acetate-induced translocation was quantitative. With injections of norethisterone acetate + ethynyloestradiol the increase at 1 h and retention of the nuclear receptors were similar to that with norethisterone acetate alone. In contrast, the depletion of cytosol receptor and its restoration were similar to that seen with ethynyloestradiol alone, suggesting that norethisterone acetate did not interfere with the oestrogen receptor replenishment. Specific binding in vitro of [3H]oestradiol-17 beta in liver cytosols was inhibited by (+)-norgestrel and norethisterone acetate, but not progesterone, at concentrations of 10--100 microM. Nuclear receptors present after norethisterone acetate injection bound oestrogen with high affinity (Kd = 1.52 nM), similar to receptors of oestrogen-injected animals. In the uterus, differential retention of nuclear receptors in response to oestrogens is associated with different cellular responses. The differences in the response of the receptor system in liver to the various steroids suggests that the corresponding tissue responses may also be dissimilar. These results are discussed in relation to the problems of liver dysfunction in oral-contraceptive users. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor beta enhances parathyroid hormone stimulation of adenylate cyclase in clonal osteoblast-like cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) on parathyroid hormone (PTH)-responsive adenylate cyclase were examined in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells (UMR-106) with the osteoblast phenotype. Purified TGF beta incubated with UMR-106 cells for 48 hr produced a concentration-dependent increase in PTH stimulation of adenylate cyclase, with maximal increase in PTH response (37%) occurring at 1 ng/ml TGF beta. TGF beta also enhanced receptor-mediated activation of adenylate cyclase by isoproterenol and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and nonreceptor-mediated enzyme activation by cholera toxin and forskolin. In cells in which PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was augmented by treatment with pertussis toxin, the incremental increase in PTH response produced by TGF beta was reduced by 33%. However, TGF beta neither mimicked nor altered the ability of pertussis toxin to catalyze the ADP-ribosylation of a 41,000-Da protein, presumably the alpha subunit of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory component (Gi) of adenylate cyclase, in cholate-extracted UMR-106 cell membranes. TGF beta also had no effect on the levels of alpha or beta subunits of Gi, as assessed by immunotransfer blotting. In time course studies, brief (less than or equal to 30 min) exposure of cells to TGF beta during early culture was sufficient to increase PTH response but only after exposed cells were subsequently allowed to grow for prolonged periods. TGF beta enhancement of PTH and isoproterenol responses was blocked by prior treatment of cells with cycloheximide but not indomethacin. The results suggest that TGF beta enhances PTH response in osteoblast-like cells by action(s) exerted at nonreceptor components of adenylate cyclase. The effect of TGF beta may involve Gi, although in a manner unrelated to either pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of the alpha subunit of Gi or changes in levels of Gi subunits. The regulatory action of TGF beta on adenylate cyclase is likely to be mediated by the rapid generation of cellular signals excluding prostaglandins, followed by a prolonged sequence of events involving protein synthesis. These observations suggest a mechanism by which TGF beta may regulate osteoblast responses to systemic hormones. 相似文献

The cellular cGMP content increased in response to a variety of receptor agonists, which activate [e.g., prostaglandin (PG) E1, E2, and F2 alpha] or inhibit (e.g., alpha-adrenergic, muscarinic, and opiate agonists) adenylate cyclase in neuroblastoma X glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells. The responses were additive when PGF2 alpha and enkephalin were mixed. The inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Ni) is involved in adenylate cyclase inhibition; this function of Ni is lost when it is ADP-ribosylated by islet-activating protein (IAP), pertussis toxin [H. Kurose, T. Katada, T. Amano, and M. Ui (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 4870-4875]. The cGMP rise induced by stimulation of the receptors linked to adenylate cyclase inhibition was also diminished by IAP; the time course and dose response for the IAP-induced diminution were the same between adenylate cyclase inhibition and cGMP generation. Ni thus appears to mediate guanylate cyclase activation as well as adenylate cyclase inhibition initiated via the same receptors. Melittin also increased cGMP. No additivity was shown when enkephalin and melittin were combined, suggesting that phospholipase A2 might play a role in Ni-mediated guanylate cyclase activation. On the other hand, the PGF2 alpha-induced cGMP rise was associated with increased incorporation of 32Pi into phosphatidylinositol; was not affected by cholera toxin, IAP or forskolin; and showed no additivity when combined with A23187, which increased cGMP by itself. PGs would occupy receptors linked to phosphatidylinositol breakdown, thereby increasing the availability of intracellular Ca2+, which is responsible for guanylate cyclase activation. Thus, dual pathways are proposed for a receptor-mediated cGMP rise in NG108-15 cells. 相似文献

The retinal nucleotide regulatory protein, transducin, can substitute for the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein (Ni) in inhibiting adenylate cyclase activity in phospholipid vesicle systems. In the present work we have assessed the roles of the alpha (alpha T) and beta gamma (beta gamma T) subunit components in mediating this inhibition. The inclusion of either a preactivated alpha T . GTP gamma S (where GTP gamma S is guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate)) complex, or the beta gamma complex, in phospholipid vesicles containing the pure human erythrocyte stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein (Ns) and the resolved catalytic moiety of bovine caudate adenylate cyclase (C) resulted in inhibition of the GppNHp-stimulated (where GppNHp is guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate) activity (by approximately 30-60 and 90%, respectively, at 2 mM MgCl2). The inhibitions by both of these subunit species are specific for the Ns-stimulated activity with neither alpha T . GTP gamma S nor beta gamma T having any direct effect on the intrinsic activity of the catalytic moiety. Increasing the MgCl2 concentration in the assay incubations significantly decreases the inhibitions by both alpha T . GTP gamma S and beta gamma T. Similarly, when the pure hamster lung beta-adrenergic receptor is included in the lipid vesicles with Ns and C, the levels of inhibition of the GppNHp-stimulated activity by both alpha T . GTP gamma S and beta gamma T are reduced compared to those obtained in vesicles containing just Ns and C (but not stimulatory receptor). These inhibitions are reduced still further under conditions where the agonist stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity is maximal, i.e. when stimulating with isoproterenol plus GTP. In these cases the alpha T . GTP gamma S inhibitory effects are completely eliminated and the inhibitions observed with holotransducin can be fully accounted for by the beta gamma T complex. The ability of the beta-adrenergic receptor to relieve these inhibitions suggests that the receptor may remain coupled to Ns (or alpha s) during the activation of the regulatory protein and the stimulation of adenylate cyclase. These results also suggest that under physiological conditions the beta gamma subunit complex is primarily responsible for mediating the inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

The affinity of the chemoattractant receptor for N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe) on human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) is regulated by guanine nucleotides, and chemoattractants stimulate increased intracellular cAMP levels in PMNs. Our data, however, indicate that this receptor does not activate membrane-bound adenylate cyclase via direct nucleotide regulatory protein (N) coupling but instead raises cAMP levels indirectly via a mechanism which appears to require Ca2+ mobilization. This conclusion is based on the following data: 1) prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) activated and alpha 2-adrenergic treatment inhibited adenylate cyclase activation in PMN plasma membranes; fMet-Leu-Phe, however, neither activated nor inhibited adenylate cyclase in these membranes; 2) depletion of extracellular Ca2+ had no effect on isoproterenol and PGE1 elicited cAMP responses in intact PMNs while peak fMet-Leu-Phe and A23187-induced responses were reduced by approximately 50 and 80%, respectively; 3) 8-(N,N-diethylamino)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, a purported Ca2+ antagonist, caused almost complete inhibition of fMet-Leu-Phe and ionophore-induced cAMP responses in intact cells but had no effect on PGE1 and isoproterenol; 4) alpha 2-adrenergic agonists inhibited PGE1 but not chemoattractant- or A23187-elicited cAMP responses in intact PMNs; and 5) pretreatment of cells with a phosphodiesterase inhibitor (isobutylmethylxanthine) greatly potentiated the PGE1 and isoproterenol cAMP responses but nearly abolished the peak fMet-Leu-Phe response. Thus, chemoattractants appear to utilize a novel mechanism to raise cAMP levels which appear to require Ca2+ mobilization and could be mediated in part through a transient inhibition of phosphodiesterases. We suggest that stimulation of PMN functions by chemoattractants may utilize an N-coupled process to generate a Ca2+ signal which could in turn raise intracellular cAMP levels indirectly and thereby provide negative regulation. 相似文献

Platelet-activating factor (PAF), a phospholipid second messenger, has diverse physiological functions, including responses in differentiated endothelial cells to external stimuli. We used human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as a model system. We show that PAF activated pertussis toxin-insensitive G alpha(q) protein upon binding to its seven transmembrane receptor. Elevated cAMP levels were observed via activation of adenylate cyclase, which activated protein kinase A (PKA) and was attenuated by a PAF receptor antagonist, blocking downstream activity. Phosphorylation of Src by PAF required G alpha(q) protein and adenylate cyclase activation; there was an absolute requirement of PKA for PAF-induced Src phosphorylation. Immediate (1 min) PAF-induced STAT-3 phosphorylation required the activation of G alpha(q) protein, adenylate cyclase, and PKA, and was independent of these intermediates at delayed (30 min) and prolonged (60 min) PAF exposure. PAF activated PLC beta 3 through its G alpha(q) protein-coupled receptor, whereas activation of phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) by PAF was independent of G proteins but required the involvement of Src at prolonged PAF exposure (60 min). We demonstrate for the first time in vascular endothelial cells: (i) the involvement of signaling intermediates in the PAF-PAF receptor system in the induction of TIMP2 and MT1-MMP expression, resulting in the coordinated proteolytic activation of MMP2, and (ii) a receptor-mediated signal transduction cascade for the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK by PAF. PAF exposure induced binding of p130(Cas), Src, SHC, and paxillin to FAK. Clearly, PAF-mediated signaling in differentiated endothelial cells is critical to endothelial cell functions, including cell migration and proteolytic activation of MMP2. 相似文献
