We have identified the low MW 27 kD heat shock protein as a major phosphoprotein constituent of smooth muscle and have investigated its potential role in agonist induced smooth muscle contraction. The neuropeptides bombesin and substance P, which are present in neurons of the anorectal region, induce contraction of isolated smooth muscle cells from this region by activating different intracellular pathways. Substance P-induced contraction is 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate (IP3)/calmodulin dependent, while contraction induced by bombesin is mediated by a protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent pathway. The sustained contraction induced by bombesin or exogenous PKC was blocked by preincubation of cells with monoclonal antibodies to hsp27, while the transient contraction induced by substance P or IP3 was unaffected by the antibodies. Preincubation with isotype matched control antibodies had no inhibitory effect on contraction induced in response to the agents used. These data support a novel role for hsp27 in the non calmodulin mediated sustained contraction induced by bombesin or PKC. 相似文献

We examined the direct effect of motilin on longitudinal and circular smooth muscle cells isolated from the guinea pig small intestine. In addition, the effects of 8-(N,N-diethylamino)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxy-benzoate hydrochloride (TMB-8, an inhibitor of intracellular Ca(2+)-release), verapamil (a voltage-dependent Ca(2+)-channel blocker), and removal of extracellular Ca2+ were investigated to evaluate the role of intracellular Ca2+ stores and extracellular Ca2+ on the muscle contraction induced by motilin. The effects of atropine (a muscarinic receptor antagonist), spantide (a substance P receptor antagonist) and loxiglumide (a CCK-receptor antagonist) were also examined to determine whether the motilin-induced contraction was independent of those receptors. Motilin induced a contraction of the longitudinal and circular smooth muscle cells in a dose-dependent manner with the maximal effect attained after 30 seconds of incubation. The ED50 values were 0.3 nM and 0.05 nM, respectively. TMB-8 suppressed completely the motilin-induced contraction of both types of smooth muscle cells. Verapamil had only a slight suppressive effect. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ did not have any significant influence on motilin-induced contraction. The contractile response to motilin was not affected by atropine, spantide or loxiglumide. Our findings showed that:1) motilin has a direct contractile effect on both longitudinal and circular smooth muscle cells; 2) this contractile effect is not evoked via muscarinic, substance P or CCK receptors, and 3) the intracellular release of Ca2+ plays an important role in the contractile response to motilin on both types of smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol esters induces selectively IgA synthesis by mouse B cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of a number of protein kinase inhibitors on IgA secretion induced by a recombinant murine IL-5 in LPS-stimulated mouse B cells. The results show that PKC inhibitors, such as sphingosine (SPH), staurosporine (STP) and H-7, blocked IL-5-induced IgA synthesis; the protein kinase A inhibitor HA-1004 and the inhibitor of calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase W-7 had no effect on IgA secretion induced by IL-5. The proliferation of the IL-5 sensitive B13 cell line in response to IL-5 was also inhibited by addition of SPH or STP or H-7. The data suggest an involvement of the PKC pathway in IL-5-induced B cell differentiation into IgA secreting cells. 相似文献

The importance of endothelial contraction in the genesis of inflammatory edema has been reported. ROS are metabolites synthesized in pathological conditions in that a significant intravascular fluid leak occurs, such as ischemia-reperfusion. Present experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that ROS, particularly H2O2, may elicit the contraction of endothelial cells, and to explore the mechanisms involved. Bovine aortic endothelial cells incubated with H2O2 showed a significant reduction in planar cell surface area (PCSA), and a significant increase in myosin light chain phosphorylation (MLCP), with a time- and dose-dependent pattern, without any significant toxicity. This effect of H2O2 was not blocked by sulotroban (TxA2 antagonist) or BN 52021 (PAF antagonist). Lanthanum chloride (calcium channel blocker) and EGTA partially inhibited the increase in MLCP induced by H2O2. H7 and staurosporine, PKC inhibitors, and PKC down-regulation (phorbol myristate acetate treatment, 24 h) also blocked H2O2-dependent endothelial contraction, measured as PCSA or MLCP. H2O2 increased the intracellular calcium concentration, an effect blunted by EGTA and lanthanum chloride. H2O2 also increased the phosphorylation of an 80 kD polypeptide, probably MARCKS, a PKC substrate. In summary, the present results demonstrate the ROS-dependent contraction of endothelial cells, an effect that could explain the intravascular fluid leak observed in some pathophysiological situations. Calcium and PKC may be involved in the development of this contraction. 相似文献

The mechanism for hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPVC) was investigated in human pulmonary arterial strips. Hypoxia in the presence of histamine (10(-6) M) caused marked pulmonary arterial contraction, which was reversed by O2. The hypoxic contraction in the presence of histamine was inhibited by diphenhydramine, but not by cimetidine. The hypoxic histamine-mediated contraction was attenuated but still present in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, or by the inhibitors of voltage-dependent Ca2+ influx. However, it was inhibited significantly by a further depletion of intracellular Ca2+, or by HA 1004, an intracellular calcium antagonist. A low concentration (10(-7) M) of a calcium ionophore, A23187, enhanced the hypoxic contraction in the presence of histamine, whereas procaine completely inhibited it. W-7, a calmodulin inhibitor, significantly decreased the hypoxic histamine-mediated contraction, but 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a C-kinase promotor, had no effect. The hypoxic contractile response was also observed in the presence of both A23187 and KCl instead of histamine, but the hypoxia-induced contraction with KCl alone was much smaller than that. These results indicate that hypoxia in the presence of certain other vasoactive agents has a potent contractile effect on the human pulmonary artery and that the response is dependent on Ca2+. Enhancement of both Ca2+ influx and Ca2+ release from intracellular storage sites by hypoxia, which interacts with calmodulin, were suggested to be involved in the mechanism of HPVC. 相似文献

Using Lilium davidii Duchartre pollen as material, the calcium ion-fluorescence indicator fluo-3AM was loaded successfully into the pollen grains by low temperature loading method. Laser confocal scanning microscopy was used to study the effect of extracellular calmodulin on intracellular calcium. It is found that the purified exogenous calmodulin could elevate the intracellular calcium ion concentration, and the effect was correlated with the concentration of exogenous calmodulin to a certain extent. Cell membrane nonpermeable inhibitor of calmodulin, W 7-agarose, and the anti-serum of calmodulin could decrease the cytosolic calcium level. The results show that the endogenous extracellular calmodulin may play an important role in maintaining and increasing the cytosolic calcium level in pollen grain cell. 相似文献

The effects of substance P on cultured rabbit osteoclasts were investigated. The intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) which was monitored by the microfluorometric technique using fura-2, in osteoclasts elevated by the addition of substance P (0.3-5 microM). The EC(50) value of substance P was about 200 nM. This substance P-evoked [Ca(2+)](i) elevation was not observed in the Ca(2+)-free medium. Simultaneous application of spantide, a substance P receptor antagonist, blocked the Ca(2+) response. The addition of substance P (0.1-10 microM) to cultured osteoclasts enhanced their bone resorption activity which was evaluated by the pit formation assay. Maximum enhancement of the pit formation by substance P (5 microM) peaked at about 170% of the control level. The addition of substance P receptor antagonists also inhibited the enhancement of the bone resorption by substance P addition. Substance P possibly stimulates the bone remodeling by osteoclasts via the [Ca(2+)](i) elevation. 相似文献

为探讨非肾上腺素能非胆碱能神经递质对胃窦环行肌功能的调节作用,在离体胃平滑肌上观察了嘌呤拟似物对胃窦环行肌自发性收缩活动和电活动的影响。电活动用传统的细胞内微电极记录,并和收缩活动同步描记于多道生理记录仪。结果表明,嘌呤能P2Y受体激动剂,三磷酸腺苷(ATP)和2-methylthio ATP(2-MeSATP)均增强胃窦平滑肌的收缩活动,但不影响电活动,而且ATP和2-MeSATP对胃平滑肌收缩活动的增强作用可被嘌呤能P2Y受体阻断剂,reactive blue-2和苏拉明(suramin)所阻断。用100μmol/L α,β-MeATP引起的脱敏感使P2X受体被阻断,ATP增强胃窦平滑肌收缩活动的效应不受影响。嘌呤能P2X受体激动剂,α,β-MeATP明显抑制胃窦环行肌自发性收缩活动,同时使膜电位明显超极化。ATP对胃窦平滑肌的收缩作用不被L型钙通道阻断剂尼卡地平(nicardipine)阻断,但细胞外用无钙液灌流时这种效应则完全被阻断。用前列腺素合成抑制剂消炎痛预先处理20min后,ATP和2-MeSATP仍能增强胃窦平滑肌的自发性收缩活动。以上结果提示:(1)ATP和2-MeSATP通过嘌呤能P2Y受体增强胃窦平滑肌的自发性收缩活动,而α,β-MeATP或β,γ-MeATP通过嘌呤能P2X受体使膜电位超极化,引起胃窦平滑肌的舒张;(2)ATP和2-MeSATP增强胃窦平滑肌自发性收缩活动的效应依赖于细胞外钙,但钙离子进入细胞的途径并不是电压依赖性钙通道;(3)ATP和2-MeSATP增强胃窦平滑肌自发性收缩活动的效应不通过前列腺素介导。 相似文献

Various indirect evidence has indicated that calcium ions and the calcium-binding regulator protein, calmodulin, may regulate mitosis in higher eukaryotes. We have used the competitive antagonist, CAPP1-calmodulin, to antagonize intracellular calmodulin and test the hypothesis that calmodulin serves as a regulator of mitosis. We find that CAPP1-calmodulin inhibits the transit of cells through metaphase at estimated intracellular concentrations up to that of native calmodulin; beyond that level, the inhibition of mitosis vanishes. The membrane-permeant anticalmodulin agents, W7 and calmidazolium, also inhibit the progress of cells through metaphase. The similarity of the inhibitory curves for CAPP1-calmodulin, W7, and calmidazolium suggests that all these agents inhibit mitosis by antagonizing intracellular calmodulin. In order to test whether this inhibition of metaphase transit is due to an effect of the agents on intracellular free calcium, we used the calcium indicator Fura-2 to measure intracellular calcium levels after CAPP1-calmodulin injection or during calmidazolium treatment. We found that, while intracellular calcium levels are modestly elevated during calmidazolium treatment, they were unaffected by CAPP1-calmodulin, a result suggesting that mitosis inhibition was not due to an effect on intracellular free calcium. The reasons for the anomalous dose-response behavior of these drugs are not known; however, the behavior of cells at drug levels below the point of anomaly supports the hypothesis that calmodulin acts as a regulator of mitosis in these cells. 相似文献

[DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]Substance P-4-11 functions as a substance P receptor antagonist in several different systems. Because some analogues of substance P can function as receptor antagonists for bombesin as well as substance P, we tested [DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]substance P-4-11 for its ability to modify the interaction of various pancreatic secretagogues with their receptors in dispersed acini from guinea pig pancreas. [DPro4,DTrp7,9,19]Substance P-4-11 did not stimulate amylase secretion and did not alter the stimulation of amylase secretion caused by secretin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, calcitonin gene-related peptide or carbachol, but did inhibit the stimulation of amylase secretion caused by substance P, bombesin or cholecystokinin. With substance P, bombesin and cholecystokinin, [DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]substance P-4-11 caused a parallel rightward shift in the dose-response curve for stimulation of amylase secretion with no change in the maximal response. Schild plots of these results gave straight lines with slopes that were not significantly different from unity. [DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]Substance P-4-11 inhibited binding of 125I-labeled substance P, 125I-[Tyr4]bombesin and 125I-cholecystokinin octapeptide over the same range of concentrations as that in which it inhibited biologic activity of each of these peptides. Half-maximal inhibition of binding of 125I-substance P occurred with 4 microM, of 125I-[Tyr4]bombesin with 17 microM and of 125I-cholecystokinin octapeptide with 5 microM. With each radiolabeled peptide the value of Ki for inhibition of binding by [DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]substance P-4-11 was not significantly different from the corresponding value of Ki calculated from the appropriate Schild plot. The present results indicate that [DPro4,DTrp7,9,10]substance P-4-11 is a competitive antagonist at receptors for substance P, for bombesin and for cholecystokinin. Thus, these receptors must share a common peptide recognition mechanism even though they interact with agonists that have no obvious structural similarity. 相似文献

The effects of calcium, calmodulin, protein kinase C (PKC) and protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) modulators were examined on the volume-activated taurine efflux in the erythroleukemia cell line K562. Exposure to hypoosmotic solution significantly increased taurine efflux and intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). The Ca2+ channel blockers La3+ (1 mM), verapamil (200 microM) and nifedipine (100 microM) inhibited the hypoosmotically-induced [Ca2+]i increase by more than 90%, while the volume-activated taurine efflux was inhibited by 61.3 +/- 9.5, 74.1 +/- 9.3 and 38.0 +/- 1.5%, respectively. Furthermore, the calmodulin inhibitors W7 (50 microM) and trifluoperazine (10 microM) and the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II inhibitor KN-62 (2 microM) significantly blocked the volume-activated taurine efflux by 93.4 +/- 2.7, 77.9 +/- 3.5 and 61.3 +/- 15.8%, respectively. In contrast, the PKC inhibitor staurosporine (200 nM) or the PKC activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (100 nM) did not have significant effects on the volume-activated taurine efflux. However, pretreatment with PTK inhibitors genistein, tyrphostin A25, and tyrphostin A47 blocked the volume-activated taurine efflux. These results suggest that the volume-activated taurine efflux in K562 cells may not directly involve Ca2+, but may require the presence of calmodulin and/or PTK. 相似文献

Both protein kinase C (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) are involved in mediating vascular smooth muscle contraction. We tested the hypotheses that in addition to PKC activation of ERK1/2, by negative feedback ERKs modulate PKC-induced contraction, and that their interactions modulate both thick and thin myofilament pathways. In ovine middle cerebral arteries (MCA), we measured isometric tension and intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) responses to PKC stimulation [phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), 3 x 10(-6) M] in the absence or presence of ERK1/2 inhibition (U-0126, 10(-5) M). After PDBu +/- ERK1/2 inhibition, we also examined by Western immunoblot the levels of total and phosphorylated ERK1/2, caldesmon(Ser789), myosin light chain(20) (MLC(20)), and CPI-17. PDBu induced significant increase in tension in the absence of increased [Ca(2+)](i). PDBu also increased phosphorylated ERK1/2 levels, a response blocked by U-0126. In turn, U-0126 augmented PDBu-induced contractions. PDBu also was associated with significant increases in phosphorylated caldesmon(Ser789) and MLC(20) levels, each of which peaked at 5 to 10 min. PDBu also increased phosphorylated CPI-17 levels, which peaked at 2 to 3 min. Rho kinase inhibition (Y-27632, 3 x 10(-7) M) did not alter PDBu-induced contraction. These results support the idea that PKC activation can increase CPI-17 phosphorylation to decrease myosin light chain phosphatase activity. In turn, this increases MLC(20) phosphorylation in the thick filament pathway and increases Ca(2+) sensitivity. In addition, ERK1/2-dependent phosphorylation of caldesmon(Ser789) was not necessary for PDBu-induced contraction and appears not to be involved in the reversal of caldesmon's inhibitory effect on actin-myosin ATPase. 相似文献

Epithelial cells were isolated from rat trachea by incubation of the organ in a calcium-free medium. The intracellular concentration of calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) was measured with the calcium-sensitive fluorescent dye fura2. In resting conditions, the cells maintained a low [Ca(2+)](i) in spite of the presence of millimolar concentration of calcium in the incubation medium. These cells had retained intracellular stores of calcium which were emptied after exposure of the cells to thapsigargin, an inhibitor of intracellular calcium ATPases. Substance P (125 nM) transiently increased 2.5-fold the [Ca(2+)](i). ATP (1 mM) doubled the [Ca(2+)](i) after a few seconds and further induced a sustained increase of the [Ca(2+)](i). Coomassie blue fully blocked the response to ATP and extracellular magnesium only inhibited the delayed response to ATP. Among purinergic analogs, only benzoyl-ATP (Bz-ATP), an agonist on P2X ionotropic purinergic receptors, reproduced the response to ATP. UTP and 2-methylthioATP (two agonists on P2Y metabotropic purinergic receptors) transiently increased the [Ca(2+)](i). Thapsigargin, ATP and Bz-ATP increased the uptake of extracellular calcium. RT-PCR analysis revealed that two metabotropic receptors (P2Y(1) and P2Y(2)) and two ionotropic receptors (P2X(4) and P2X(7)) were expressed by the cells present in the suspension. It is concluded that purinergic agonists can modulate the response of rat tracheal epithelial cells by several mechanisms. The activation of metabotropic receptors should mobilize intracellular IP(3)-sensitive calcium pools. The activation of the ionotropic receptors should not only open a non-specific cation channel leading to the entry of calcium but should also induce the formation of pores in cells expressing the P2X(7) receptors, which could be deleterious to these cells. 相似文献

We investigated the role of microfilaments in stimulus-induced translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) from C57BL/6 mice. Cytochalasin B and dihydrocytochalasin B almost completely inhibited PKC translocation induced by either TPA or Ca2+ ionophore after pretreatment of cells for 30 min. In addition, ML-9, a potent inhibitor of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent myosin light chain kinase which regulate microfilament contraction, and a calmodulin antagonist W-7, also inhibited PKC translocation. These findings suggest the possibility that microfilaments are involved in the translocation of PKC. 相似文献

The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in sustained contraction was examined in intestinal circular and longitudinal muscle cells. Initial contraction induced by agonists (CCK-8 and neuromedin C) was abolished by 1) inhibitors of Ca(2+) mobilization (neomycin and dimethyleicosadienoic acid), 2) calmidazolium, and 3) myosin light chain (MLC) kinase (MLCK) inhibitor KT-5926. In contrast, sustained contraction was not affected by these inhibitors but was abolished by 1) the PKC inhibitors chelerythrine and calphostin C, 2) PKC-epsilon antibody, and 3) a pseudosubstrate PKC-epsilon inhibitor. GDPbetaS abolished both initial and sustained contraction, whereas a Galpha(q/11) antibody inhibited only initial contraction, implying that sustained contraction was dependent on activation of a distinct G protein. Sustained contraction induced by epidermal growth factor was inhibited by calphostin C, PKC-alpha,beta,gamma antibody, and a pseudosubstrate PKC-alpha inhibitor. Ca(2+) (0.4 microM) induced an initial contraction in permeabilized muscle cells that was blocked by calmodulin and MLCK inhibitors and a sustained contraction that was blocked by calphostin C and a PKC-alpha,beta,gamma antibody. Thus initial contraction induced by Ca(2+), agonists, and growth factors is mediated by MLCK, whereas sustained contraction is mediated by specific Ca(2+)-dependent and -independent PKC isozymes. G protein-coupled receptors are linked to PKC activation via distinct G proteins. 相似文献

Bombesin, substance P and several structurally related peptides cause excessive grooming behavior after intracerebroventricular injection in mice. The present study describes the behavioral characteristics of these effects after acute administration. Substance P caused an elevation of grooming behavior which was short-lasting (less than 15 minutes), while bombesin induced both grooming and scratching behavior with a duration of action of about 2.5 hours. After repeated injections of high doses of either bombesin or a metabolically stable substance P analog, no tolerance-formation to these peptide-induced effects could be observed. Morphine partially antagonized bombesin-induced behaviors at a dose of 7.5 mg/kg subcutaneously while the same dose did not attentuate substance P-induced grooming. These results suggest that the behavioral changes induced by substance P and bombesin are mediated by distinct mechanisms. The lack of tolerance formation, together with the partial antagonism by morphine, suggests that the bombesin-induced behaviors may be related to a stimulation of nociceptive mechanisms. 相似文献

The contractile effects of a peptide isolated from rat erythrocytes were further studied in rat aortic rings. Previous data showed that preincubation of aortic tissue with the peptide had no effect on resting tension, but significantly enhanced K+ and norepinephrine (NE) induced contraction. The calcium channel antagonist verapamil noncompetitively blocked the effect of the peptide, whereas nifedipine blockage appeared to be competitive. In the present study the peptide enhanced K+, NE, and phenylephrine (PE) induced contraction in a concentration-dependent manner, with a maximum enhancement at peptide concentrations of 10(-7)-10(-6) M. At a concentration as low as 10(-9) M, the peptide significantly enhanced K(+)-induced, but not NE- or PE-induced, contraction. The magnitude of maximal enhancement was greater for K(+)-induced contraction than that for NE- or PE-induced contraction. Preincubation of the tissues with the peptide caused a leftward shift of cumulative concentration-response curves to K+ and NE. The peptide enhancement of contraction increased with increasing K+ and NE concentration. The peptide potentiated the contractile response to Ca2+ in K(+)-depolarizing medium. It also enhanced the contractile response to NE in intracellular Ca2(+)-pool-depleted tissue following the replenishment of extracellular Ca2+, but had no apparent effect on the mobilization of intracellular calcium. Addition of nifedipine caused a rightward shift of both the peptide and Bay K 8644 concentration-response curves.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Trichosanthin (TCS), a type I ribosome-inactivating protein, induces cell death in various cell types including several tumor cell lines. However, the mechanism remains largely uncharacterized. In this study, we investigated the possible mechanism underlying its cytotoxicity by using human chronic myeloid leukemia cell line K562. We found that TCS induced apoptosis in K562 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner and can be blocked by caspase-3 inhibitors. Interestingly, TCS treatment induced a transient elevation in intracellular calcium concentration and a slow increase in reactive oxygen species production, while calcium chelators and antioxidants had no obvious effect on TCS-induced apoptosis, suggesting that calcium changes and reactive oxygen species may not be involved in TCS-mediated apoptosis in K562 cells. Instead we found that TCS partly inhibited PKC activity. Indeed, the PKC activator, PMA, inhibited while the PKC inhibitor, calphostin c, enhanced TCS-induced apoptosis. These PKC modulators had similar effects on TCS-induced cleavage of caspase-3, and caspase-3 inhibitors prevented calphostin c-enhanced apoptosis induced by TCS. In summary, we conclude that TCS induces apoptosis in K562 cells partly via PKC inhibition and caspase-3 activation. 相似文献
