Ion selectivity of divalent cations on Ba2+ inward current oscillations was examined by voltage-clamp recording in v-Ki-ras-transformed NIH/3T3 (DT) fibroblasts where repetitive transient increases in cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration were evoked by bradykinin. Application of bradykinin onto DT cells in 50 mM Ba2+ solution initiated Ba2+ inward current oscillations. The inward currents were inhibited in equimolar Sr2+ or Ca2+ solutions. Ba2+ current oscillations were dependent upon extracellular Ba2+ concentration. The results suggest that inward current oscillations are highly selective to Ba2+. 相似文献

In quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells, platelet-derived growth factor or fibroblast growth factor known to induce both protein kinase C activation and Ca2+ mobilization raised c-fos mRNA. This action of the growth factors was mimicked by the specific activators for protein kinase C, such as phorbol esters and a membrane-permeable synthetic diacylglycerol, and also by the Ca2+ ionophores, such as A23187 and ionomycin. Prostaglandin E1 known to elevate cyclic AMP also raised c-fos mRNA, and this action was mimicked by 8-bromo-cyclic AMP, dibutyryl cyclic AMP and forskolin. These results suggest that expression of the c-fos gene is regulated by three different intracellular messenger systems, protein kinase C, Ca2+ and cyclic AMP, in Swiss 3T3 cells. 相似文献

Cyclic GMP depresses hippocampal Ca2+ current through a mechanism independent of cGMP-dependent protein kinase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cyclic GMP depresses Ba2+ current through high-voltage-activated Ca2+ channels (ICa) in acutely isolated hippocampal neurons. The effect is produced by intra-, but not extracellular, cGMP or by 5' GMP. The membrane-permeant derivative, 8-Br-cGMP, produces a reversible suppression. The effect of 8-Br-cGMP is similar to phorbol ester-induced ICa depression, except that ICa depression due to 8-Br-cGMP is not blocked by protein kinase inhibitors H-8 or H-7, whereas phorbol ester effects are. The data suggest that cGMP depresses ICa by a cGMP-kinase- and protein kinase C (PKC)-independent mechanism. Cyclic AMP, which enhances ICa, and the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase inhibitor, IBMX, both antagonize ICa depression induced by 8-Br-cGMP, but not that due to phorbol esters. Cyclic IMP, a more potent activator of phosphodiesterase than of cGMP-dependent protein kinase, is also a powerful depressant of ICa. We conclude that cGMP-induced depression of ICa is mediated by activation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with consequent reduction of intracellular cAMP. 相似文献

Calmodulin- and protein phosphorylation-independent release of catecholamines from PC-12 cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Catecholamine secretion from PC-12 cells can be triggered by agents that increase intracellular Ca2+ and is enhanced by phorbol esters and agents that elevate intracellular cAMP concentrations. In mutant PC-12 cells lacking cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PK-A) in which protein kinase C (PK-C) was down-regulated, Ca2+-dependent secretion occurred normally but was no longer enhanced by cAMP or phorbol esters. In digitonin-permeabilized PC-12 cells that lacked PK-C and PK-A, a range of calmodulin (CaM) inhibitors failed to block Ca2+-triggered catecholamine release. Moreover, Mn2+, a CaM activator, failed to trigger catecholamine release whereas Ba2+, which does not activate CaM, supported secretion. These results indicate that the basic mechanism of stimulus/secretion coupling in PC-12 cells does not absolutely require a regulated protein phosphorylation- or calmodulin-dependent step. 相似文献

The role of various intracellular signals and of their possible interactions in the control of neurotransmitter release was investigated in PC12 cells. To this purpose, agents that affect primarily the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+, [Ca2+]i (ionomycin, high K+), agents that affect cyclic AMP concentrations (forskolin; the adenosine analogue phenylisopropyladenosine; clonidine) and activators of protein kinase C (phorbol esters) were applied alone or in combination to either growing chromaffin-like PC12-cells, or to neuron-like PC12+ cells differentiated by treatment with NGF (nerve growth factor). In addition, the release effects of muscarinic-receptor stimulation (which causes increase in [Ca2+]i, activation of protein kinase C and decrease in cyclic AMP) were investigated. Two techniques were employed to measure catecholamine release: static incubation of [3H]dopamine-loaded cells, and perfusion incubation of unlabelled cells coupled to highly sensitive electrochemical detection of released catecholamines. The results obtained demonstrate that: (1) release from PC12 cells can be elicited by both raising [Ca2+]i and activating protein kinases (protein kinase C and, although to a much smaller extent, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase); and (2) these various control pathways interact extensively. Activation of muscarinic receptors by carbachol induced appreciable release responses, which appeared to be due to a synergistic interplay between [Ca2+]i and protein kinase C activation. The muscarinic-induced release responses tended to become inactivated rapidly, possibly by feedback desensitization of the receptor mediated by protein kinase C. Muscarinic inactivation was prevented (or reversed) by agents that increase, and accelerated by agents that decrease, cyclic AMP. Agents that stimulate release primarily through the Ca2+ pathway (ionomycin and high K+) were found to be equipotent in both PC12- and PC12+ cells, whereas the protein kinase C activator 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate was approx. 10-fold less potent in PC12+ cells, when administered either alone or in combination with ionomycin. In contrast, the cell binding of phorbol esters was not greatly modified by NGF treatment. Thus control of neurotransmitter release from PC12 cells is changed by differentiation, with a diminished role of the mechanism mediated by protein kinase C. 相似文献

Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) bu phorbol esters (TPA) results in a modification of the cyclic AMP system leading to either attenuation or amplification of the cyclic AMP signal. In the non-neoplastic T51B rat live cell line, TPA, when added to intact cells, had no effect on the basal level of cyclic AMP synthesis but caused a 1.5 fold amplification of the stimulation induced by β-adrenergic agents, cholera toxin and forskolin. The effect appeared to be mediated by PKC since diacylglycerols caused the same amplification as did TPA while inactive phorbol esters were without effect. Phosphorylation of Gs or the catalytic subunit of adenylate cyclase by PKC is likely to be responsible for the enhancement of cyclic AMP synthesis. TPA also caused translocation of PKC; however, the time course of the translocation was loner than the time course of the enhancement of adenylate cyclase activity. Thus, the ability of TPA to amplify cyclic AMP synthesis is probably mediated by activation of PKC that is already present in the membrane. 相似文献

We have used primary cultures of swine granulosa cells to investigate the regulatory role of the protein kinase C pathway in the ovary. In this system, we observed the following. Swine granulosa cells bound [3H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate [( 3H]PDB) specifically with high affinity [apparent Ki for 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) = 3.1 (2.1-4.7) nM] and low capacity [0.68 (0.34-0.99) pmol/10(7) cells]. The cytosol of granulosa cells contained functionally active protein kinase C capable of phosphorylating distinct proteins in response to stimulation with active phorbol ester. TPA and PDB induced dose-dependent inhibition (greater than 85%) of follicle-stimulating-hormone (FSH)-stimulated progesterone production. Half-maximally inhibitory concentrations were 0.10 and 0.75 nM for TPA and PDB respectively, whereas phorbol analogues that do not activate protein kinase C were not inhibitory. TPA did not impede cyclic AMP generation in response to FSH, cholera toxin or forskolin acutely (within 48 h), but did inhibit the stimulatory effects of 8-bromo cyclic AMP, insulin and oestradiol on progesterone biosynthesis. In the presence of maximally effective concentrations of 25-hydroxy-, 20 alpha-hydroxy- or 22R-hydroxy-cholesterol as exogenous sterol substrates for cholesterol side-chain cleavage, treatment with TPA suppressed pregnenolone, progesterone and 20 alpha-hydroxypregn-4-en-3-one biosynthesis by more than 80%. The inhibitory effects of phorbol esters were not attributable to non-specific cytotoxicity, since prostaglandin F2 alpha production increased in the same cultures and aromatization of exogenously supplied testosterone to oestradiol was not suppressed. In intact granulosa cells, the effects of phorbol esters were mimicked by a synthetic non-diterpene diacylglycerol, 1-octanoyl-2-acetylglycerol, and the tumour promoter, mezerein, which specifically activates protein kinase C. We conclude that swine granulosa cells contain specific high-affinity receptors for phorbol esters that are functionally coupled to protein phosphorylation. Moreover, treatment with phorbol esters or non-phorbol activators of protein kinase C results in selective inhibition of cholesterol side-chain cleavage activity without impairing cyclic AMP generation or oestrogen biosynthesis. 相似文献

Phorbol Esters Enhance Neurotransmitter-Stimulated Cyclic AMP Production in Rat Brain Slices 总被引:7,自引:6,他引:1
The effect of phorbol esters on cyclic AMP production in rat CNS tissue was examined. Using a prelabeling technique for measuring cyclic AMP accumulation in brain slices, it was found that phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA) enhanced the cyclic AMP response to forskolin and a variety of neurotransmitter receptor stimulants while having no effect on second messenger accumulation itself. A short (15-min) preincubation period with PMA was required to obtain maximal enhancement, whereas the augmentation was lessened by prolonged exposure (3 h) to the phorbol. The response to PMA was concentration dependent (EC50 = 1 microM) and regionally selective, being most apparent in forebrain, and was not influenced by removal of extracellular calcium or by inhibition of phosphodiesterase or phospholipase A2. Only those phorbols known to stimulate protein kinase C augmented the accumulation of cyclic AMP. Moreover, the membrane substrates phosphorylated by endogenous C kinase and by a partially purified preparation of this enzyme were similar. The results suggest that phorbol esters, by activating protein kinase C, modify the cyclic AMP response to brain neurotransmitter receptor stimulation in brain by influencing a component of the adenylate cyclase system beyond the transmitter recognition site. 相似文献

Phorbol esters alter cyclic AMP levels in a number of tissues, including the anterior pituitary. We report that membrane preparations from GH3 cells exposed to phorbol esters exhibit decreased vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-stimulated and enhanced forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. The responsiveness of adenylate cyclase activity to NaF, guanylyl-imidodiphosphate, and Mn2+ was also reduced by phorbol ester treatment. The ability of somatostatin to inhibit forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was reduced while phorbol ester exposure had no apparent effect on somatostatin inhibition of VIP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. We suggest that protein kinase C alters at least two distinct components of the adenylate cyclase system. One modification disrupts hormone receptor-Gs interaction (lowering VIP efficacy) and the second perturbation augments the activity of the adenylate cyclase catalytic subunit. 相似文献

The effect of phorbol esters on cyclic AMP production in rat cerebral cortical slices was studied using a prelabelling technique to measure cyclic nucleotide accumulation. Cholera toxin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation was enhanced approximately 2-fold by phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA) which alone had no effect on cyclic AMP production. The augmentation by PMA was maximal within the first hour of incubation, decreasing progressively thereafter. Protein kinase C activity was decreased 80-90% during a 3 hr exposure to PMA, as was 3H-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding. Both phosphatidyl serine and arachidonic acid were found to enhance protein kinase C activity in a concentration-dependent manner, an effect that was attenuated by prolonged incubation of the brain tissue with PMA. The results indicate that exposure of brain slices to phorbol esters causes a down-regulation of rat brain protein kinase C, and that this modification corresponds with a decrease in the ability of PMA to augment cyclic AMP production, suggesting a functional relationship between the two systems in rat brain. 相似文献

The adenosine receptor mediated accumulation of cyclic AMP in Jurkat cells is enhanced by a lectin and by phorbol esters 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
B B Fredholm M Jondal C Nordstedt 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1987,145(1):344-349
The accumulation of cyclic AMP in Jurkat cells was stimulated by adenosine and adenosine analogues. The accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by these agents was competitively antagonized by the adenosine receptor antagonist 8-p-sulphophenyl-theophylline (KD appr 1.9 microM). The lectin PHA, the diacylglycerol OAG as well as tumor promoting phorbol esters enhanced the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by the adenosine analogue NECA. The results suggest that activation of CD2/CD3 receptors by lectins could potentiate the endogenous cyclic AMP stimulator adenosine via activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

GH3 cells showed spontaneous rhythmic oscillations in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and spontaneous prolactin release. The L-type Ca2+ channel inhibitor nimodipine reduced the frequency of Ca2+ oscillations at lower concentrations (100nM-1 microM), whereas at higher concentrations (10 microM), it completely abolished them. Ca2+ oscillations persisted following exposure to thapsigargin, indicating that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ stores were not required for spontaneous activity. The K+ channel inhibitors Ba2+, Cs+, and tetraethylammonium (TEA) had distinct effects on different K+ currents, as well as on Ca2+ oscillations and prolactin release. Cs+ inhibited the inward rectifier K+ current (KIR) and increased the frequency of Ca2+ oscillations. TEA inhibited outward K+ currents activated at voltages above -40 mV (grouped within the category of Ca2+ and voltage-activated currents, KCa,V) and increased the amplitude of Ca2+ oscillations. Ba2+ inhibited both KIR and KCa,V and increased both the amplitude and the frequency of Ca2+ oscillations. Prolactin release was increased by Ba2+ and Cs+ but not by TEA. These results indicate that L-type Ca2+ channels and KIR channels modulate the frequency of Ca2+ oscillations and prolactin release, whereas TEA-sensitive KCa,V channels modulate the amplitude of Ca2+ oscillations without altering prolactin release. Differential regulation of these channels can produce frequency or amplitude modulation of calcium signaling that stimulates specific pituitary cell functions. 相似文献

Previous studies showed that phorbol esters and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulated phosphatidylcholine synthesis via protein kinase C in GH3 pituitary cells [Kolesnick (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 14525-14530]. In contrast, 1,2-diacylglycerol-stimulated phosphatidylcholine synthesis appeared independent of protein kinase C. The present studies compare phosphatidylcholine synthesis stimulated by these agents with inhibition via the cyclic AMP system. The potent phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 10 nM) increased [32P]Pi incorporation into phosphatidylcholine at 30 min to 159 +/- 6% of control. The adenylate cyclase activator cholera toxin (CT; 10 nM) and the cyclic AMP analogue dibutyryl cyclic AMP (1 mM) abolished this effect. CT similarly abolished TRH-induced phosphatidylcholine, but not phosphatidylinositol, synthesis. This is the first report of inhibiton of receptor-mediated phosphatidylcholine synthesis by the cyclic AMP system. The 1,2-diacylglycerol 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol (diC8) also stimulated concentration-dependent phosphatidylcholine synthesis. DiC8 (3 micrograms/ml) induced an effect quantitatively similar to that of maximal concentrations of PMA and TRH, whereas a maximal diC8 concentration (30 micrograms/ml) stimulated an effect 3-4-fold greater than these other agents. CT decreased the effect of diC8 (3 micrograms/ml) by 80%. Higher diC8 concentrations overcame the CT inhibition. Similar results were obtained with dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Additional differences were found between low and high concentrations of diC8. Low concentrations of diC8 failed to induce additive phosphatidylcholine synthesis with maximal concentrations of PMA, whereas high concentrations were additive. Hence, low concentrations of 1,2-diacylglycerols appear to be regulated similarly to phorbol esters, and higher concentrations appear to act via a pathway unavailable to phorbol esters. 相似文献

Single pituitary gonadotrophs exhibit episodes of spontaneous fluctuations in cytoplasmic calcium concentration [( Ca2+]i) due to entry through voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) and show prominent agonist-induced oscillations in [Ca2+]i that are generated by periodic release of intracellular Ca2+. Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) elicited three types of Ca2+ responses: at low doses, subthreshold, with an increase in basal [Ca2+]i; at intermediate doses, oscillatory, with dose-dependent modulation of spiking frequency; and at high doses, biphasic, without oscillations. Elevation of [Ca2+]i or activation of protein kinase C (PKC) did not influence the frequency of agonist-induced [Ca2+]i spikes but caused dose-dependent reductions in amplitude for all types of Ca2+ response. Stimulation of transient Ca2+ spikes by GnRH was followed by inhibition of the spontaneous fluctuations. GnRH also reduced the ability of high extracellular K+ to promote Ca2+ influx through VSCC. Activation of PKC by phorbol esters stimulated Ca2+ influx in quiescent cells but inhibited influx when VSCC were already activated, either spontaneously or by high K+. In contrast to their biphasic actions on [Ca2+]i, phorbol esters exerted only stimulatory actions on gonadotropin release, even when Ca2+ influx was concomitantly reduced. However, pituitary cells had to be primed with an appropriate [Ca2+]i level before exocytosis could be amplified by PKC. In PKC-depleted cells, all actions of phorbol esters on Ca2+ entry and amplitude modulation, and on LH release, were abolished. GnRH-induced LH secretion was also significantly reduced, especially the plateau phase of the response. These data indicate that Ca2+ and PKC serve as interacting signals during the cascade of cellular events triggered by agonist stimulation, in which Ca2+ turns cell responses on or off, and PKC amplifies the positive and negative effects of Ca2+. 相似文献

An inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-dependent cation entry pathway in DT40 B lymphocytes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We examined the roles of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3R) in calcium signaling using DT40 B lymphocytes, and a variant lacking the three IP3R isoforms (IP3R-KO). In wild-type cells, B cell receptor (BCR) stimulation activates a cation entry route that exhibits significantly greater permeability to Ba2+ than does capacitative calcium entry. This cation entry is absent in IP3R-KO cells. Expression of the type-3 IP3R (IP3R-3) in the IP3R-KO cells rescued not only agonist-dependent release of intracellular Ca2+, but also Ba2+ influx following receptor stimulation. Similar results were obtained with an IP3R-3 mutant carrying a conservative point mutation in the selectivity filter region of the channel (D2477E); however, an IP3R-3 mutant in which this same aspartate was replaced by alanine (D2477A) failed to restore either BCR-induced Ca2+ release or receptor-dependent Ba2+ entry. These results suggest that in DT40 B lymphocytes, BCR stimulation activates a novel cation entry across the plasma membrane that depends upon, or is mediated by, fully functional IP3R. 相似文献

In mouse mammary epithelial C127 cells expressing wild-type cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), chloride efflux, measured with the Cl−-sensitive dye 6-methoxy-N-(3-sulfopropyl)quinolinium (SPQ), was stimulated by activation of protein kinase A with cyclic AMP elevating agents forskolin plus 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine (IBMX) and, to a less extent, by activation of protein kinase C with the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Conversely, bicarbonate influx, determined by intracellular alkalinization of cells incubated with the pH-sensitive dye 2′,7′-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluoresceintetraacetoxymethyl ester (BCECF-AM), was stimulated by cyclic AMP elevation, but not by PMA. Patch clamp analysis revealed that PMA activated a Cl− current with the typical biophysical characteristics of swelling-activated current and not of CFTR. 相似文献

As turkey erythrocytes were progressively depleted of ATP by preincubation with dinitrophenol, the (Na+ + K+ + 2Cl-)-cotransport system (assayed by the bumetanide-sensitive fraction of 86Rb+ influx) became less responsive to activation. The dependence upon intracellular ATP concentration was significantly steeper for transport activated by hypertonic shock (halfmaximal activity at 0.7 mM ATP) than for that activated by either epinephrine or cyclic AMP (halfmaximal activity at 1.7 mM ATP). Upon removal of epinephrine or cyclic AMP from cells that had been preincubated with those substances, bumetanide-sensitive transport activity declined sharply, even though the intracellular cyclic AMP concentration was still over 10-fold that required to maximally activate the transport system. These data are in agreement with the notion that the (Na+ + K+ + 2Cl-)-cotransport system in turkey erythrocytes is activated by cyclic AMP, presumably through the 'classical' pathway involving a protein kinase. They do however indicate that some other, as yet undefined aspect of cyclic AMP metabolism is important for the maintenance of transport activity. 相似文献

The non-hydrolyzable GTP analogue, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) and cyclic AMP potentiated the Ca2+-evoked secretion of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) from permeabilized neurointermediate lobe (IL) cells of rat pituitary gland. The enhancement by Mg-GTP gamma S (100 microM) and cyclic AMP (1 microM) depended on the intracellular Ca2+ concentration (EC50 = 4.8 +/- 1.8 and 4.6 +/- 1.7 microM; mean +/- SE, with and without Mg-GTP gamma S and cyclic AMP, respectively). A similar effect was observed with guanine nucleotide triphosphate (GTP and GppNHp). Mg was absolutely required for this event. Neither Mg-GTP gamma S nor cyclic AMP alone was effective in potentiating alpha-MSH secretion. GDP beta S blocked the Mg-GTP gamma S (100 microM) and cyclic AMP augmented secretion of alpha-MSH. Neither neomycin (which affects the process of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate-mediated Ca2+ mobilization) or colchicine (which influences microtubule assembly) had an effect on the cyclic AMP and Mg-GTP gamma S potentiation of alpha-MSH secretion. These data suggest that the GTP-binding protein may be involved in the regulation of alpha-MSH secretion after Ca2+ entry into the cells, since the intracellular environment is controlled in the permeabilized cells. 相似文献

The present studies were designed to examine the regulation of Na+/H+ exchange activity by epidermal growth factor (EGF) in an in vitro system. Na+/H+ exchange activity was determined in brush-border membranes isolated from rat jejunal enterocytes incubated with epidermal growth factor and a number of second messengers. EGF at physiological concentrations stimulated Na+/H+ exchange activity without affecting vesicle size. The stimulation of Na+/H+ activity was the result of increasing Vmax of Na+/H+ (6.0 +/- 0.4 compared with 3.3 +/- 0.27 nmol/mg protein/5 sec, P < 0.01). Km values of the Na+/H+ exchanger in brush-border membrane from cells stimulated with EGF and controls were similar (16.0 +/- 3.0 vs 13.0 +/- 3.0, respectively). Na+/H+ activity was inhibited by phorbol esters, calmodulin, and cyclic AMP. The effects of EGF, calmodulin, cyclic AMP, and phorbol esters were dependent on ATP, because depleting the cells from ATP masked the effects on Na+/H+ exchange activity. The results suggest that EGF stimulates Na+/H+ exchange activity in the enterocytes. This stimulation is most likely not via activation of the phosphatidylinositol pathway. 相似文献
