We have shown that the fluorescent "stretched-out" analog of cyclic AMP, namely linear-benzo-cyclic AMP, maximally activates brain protein kinase and protein kinase from skeletal muscle. The corresponding linear-benzoadenosine inhibits kinase activity slightly less than does adenosine. Thus, the 2.4A-wider versions of cyclic AMP and of adenosine interact with protein kinase in a manner similar to that of the natural compounds. 相似文献

The stimulations of ureagenesis and cyclic AMP accumulation induced by glucagon were inhibited by 10 nM vasopressin or 100 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). The maximal accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon was clearly diminished by these agents without change in the EC50 for the peptide hormone suggesting a non-competitive type of inhibition. H-7 blocked the inhibition of glucagon-stimulated ureagenesis induced by PMA and vasopressin and diminished their effect on the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon. It is concluded that activation of protein kinase C inhibits the stimulation of ureagenesis and the accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon in liver cells from hypothyroid rats; H-7 inhibits the effects of protein kinase C activation. 相似文献

When resting confluent monolayers of WI-38 fibroblasts are stimulated to proliferate by serum, DNA synthesis begins to increase between 15-18 h after stimulation. Chromatin-bound protein kinase activity increases in stimulated cells within 1 h after the nutritional change, concomitant with an increase in the template activity of nuclear chromatin. Addition of dibutyryl 3' : 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dibutyryl cyclic) AMP to the stimulating medium inhibits the entrance of cells into S phase, but only if dibutyryl cyclic AMP (5-10(-4) M) is added before the onset of DNA synthesis. The increases in chromatin template activity and in the chromatin-bound kinase activity are not inhibited by dibutyryl cyclic AMP in the early hours after stimulation, but are completely inhibited after the 5th hour from the nutritional change. This seems to indicate that in stimulated WI-38 cells, dibutyryl cyclic AMP exerts its inhibitory action somewhere between 5 and 12 h after stimulation. A number of protein kinase activities were extracted from chromatin with 0.3 M NaCl and partially resolved on a phosphocellulose column. Two distinct peaks of protein kinase activity appeared to be markedly increased in WI-38 cells 6 h after serum stimulation. Both peaks of increased activity were inhibited by dibutyryl cyclic AMP in vivo. Adenosine, sodium butyrate and adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) do not inhibit the increase in DNA synthesis nor the increase in protein kinase activity. The results suggest that stimulation of cell proliferation in confluent monolayers of WI-38 cells causes an increase (or the new appearance) of certain chromatin-bound protein kinases, and that this increase is inhibited by cyclic AMP in vivo. 相似文献

The continuous cell line, J774.2, exhibits many macrophage-like functions such as latex and Fc-mediated phagocytosis, antibody mediated phagocytosis, antibody mediated cytotoxicity, chemotaxis, and lysozyme secretion. Cyclic AMP stimulates Fc-mediated phagocytosis and inhibits the growth of J774.2. To further evaluate the relationship between cyclic AMP and the specialized functions exhibited by these cells. Variants deficient in phagocytosis, adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase were derived. We have now shown that J774.2 also secretes plasminogen activator and that this secretion is rapidly and specifically inhibited by 8-bromoadenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphoric acid (8 Br--cAMP) or cholera toxin under conditions where lysozyme secretion is unaltered. Utilizing protein kinase-deficient variants, the ability of cyclic AMP to inhibit plasminogen activator secretion was shown to be mediated by a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. We conclude that cyclic AMP has diametrically opposing effects on two macrophage-like functions: Fc-mediated phagocytosis and plasminogen activator secretion. 相似文献

Guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase) and adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase) exhibited a high degree of cyclic nucleotide specificity when hormone-sensitive triacylglycerol lipase, phosphorylase kinase, and cardiac troponin were used as substrates. The concentration of cyclic GMP required to activate half-maximally cyclic dependent protein kinase was 1000- to 100-folds less than that of cylic AMP with these substrates. The opposite was true with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase where 1000- to 100-fold less cyclic GMP was required for half-maximal enzyme activation. This contrasts with the lower degree of cyclic nucleotide specificity of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase of 25-fold when histone H2b was used as a substrate for phosphorylation. Cyclic IMP resembled cyclic AMP in effectiveness in stimulating cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase but was intermediate between cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP in stimulating cyclic. AMP-dependent protein kinase. The effect of cyclic IMP on cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase was confirmed in studies of autophosphorylation of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase where both cyclic AMP and cyclic IMP enhanced autophophorylation. The high degree of cyclic nucleotide specificity observed suggests that cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP activate only their specific kinase and that crossover to the opposite kinase is unlikely to occur at reported cellular concentrations of cyclic nucleotides. 相似文献

The role of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in the glucagon-stimulated phosphorylation of ATP-citrate lyase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We have examined the mechanism whereby glucagon stimulates the phosphorylation of ATP-citrate lyase in intact rat hepatocytes. Purified ATP-citrate lyase is phosphorylated in vitro by the catalytic subunit of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, in a reaction wherein 2-3 mol phosphate/mol lyase are incorporated, at an initial rate that approaches that observed for mixed histone. This reaction is completely abolished by the protein kinase inhibitor protein. Limited tryptic digestion of ATP-citrate lyase phosphorylated in vitro by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase yields a pattern of 32P-labeled peptides, indistinguishable from those observed in parallel digests of lyase isolated from 32P-labeled, glucagon-stimulated hepatocytes. Phosphorylase b kinase catalyzes the incorporation of 1 mol phosphate/mol lyase, albeit at less than 1/160 the rate observed for phosphorylase b. The phosphorylation of purified ATP-citrate lyase is also catalyzed by homogenates of hepatocytes. This reaction is stimulated by cyclic AMP. At 30 degrees C, in the presence of maximally stimulating concentrations of cyclic AMP, the addition of excess protein kinase inhibitor protein inhibits the phosphorylation of ATP-citrate lyase by 67%. Thus, hepatocytes contain both cyclic AMP-dependent and cyclic AMP-independent ATP-citrate lyase kinase activities. Pretreatment of hepatocytes with glucagon (10(-8) M for 2 min) prior to homogenization results in activation of an endogenous hepatocyte ATP-citrate lyase kinase, as well as histone kinase and phosphorylase b kinase; the glucagon-stimulated increment in lyase kinase (and histone kinase) is observed only when homogenates are assayed in the absence of added cyclic AMP, and is completely abolished by an excess of the protein kinase inhibitor protein. We conclude that the glucagon-stimulated phosphorylation of ATP-citrate lyase in intact hepatocytes is catalyzed directly by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP is a second messenger for various hormones that inhibits cell multiplication and DNA synthesis in cultured astrocytes. We examined the effects of increasing intracellular cyclic AMP on the catalytic (cdks) and regulatory (cyclins and ckis) components of cyclin-dependent protein kinases, which regulate progression of the cell cycle before completion of DNA synthesis, in primary cultured astrocytes and in an astrocytic cell line C.LT.T.1.1. The amount of cdk4 changed little during the cell cycle and was not affected by cyclic AMP. There was little cdk1 and cdk2 in quiescent cells, and their expression increased during the G1-S phases. Cyclic AMP strongly inhibited cdk1 and cdk2 expression. Transforming growth factor beta also inhibited cdk1 expression in primary astrocytes. Cyclic AMP did not affect the two ckis p27KIP1 and p21CIP1. There was little cyclin D1 in quiescent cells, but it increased during the G1 phase and was reduced by cyclic AMP. Cyclin E increased during the G1-S phases and was not affected by cyclic AMP in primary astrocytes. The amount of cyclin A was low in quiescent cells and increased during the G1-S phases. Expression of its mRNA and protein was inhibited by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase activities associated with complexes of cyclins and cdks were increased by growth factors and prevented by cyclic AMP. We conclude that cyclic AMP inhibits progression of the cell cycle in astrocytes at least by preventing the expression of the regulatory subunits, cyclins D1 and A, and catalytic subunits, cdk1 and cdk2, of cyclin-regulated protein kinases.

The cyclic AMP signal transduction pathway modulates apoptosis in diverse cell types, although the mechanism is poorly understood. A critical component of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway is caspase-9, which is activated by Apaf-1 in the apoptosome, a large complex assembled in response to release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. Caspase-9 cleaves and activates effector caspases, predominantly caspase-3, resulting in the demise of the cell. Here we identified a distinct mechanism by which cyclic AMP regulates this apoptotic pathway through activation of protein kinase A. We show that protein kinase A inhibits activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 downstream of cytochrome c in Xenopus egg extracts and in a human cell-free system. Protein kinase A directly phosphorylates human caspase-9 at serines 99, 183, and 195. However, mutational analysis demonstrated that phosphorylation at these sites is not required for the inhibitory effect of protein kinase A on caspase-9 activation. Importantly, protein kinase A inhibits cytochrome c-dependent recruitment of procaspase-9 to Apaf-1 but not activation of caspase-9 by a constitutively activated form of Apaf-1. These data indicate that extracellular signals that elevate cyclic AMP and activate protein kinase A may suppress apoptosis by inhibiting apoptosome formation downstream of cytochrome c release from mitochondria. 相似文献

Effects of isoproterenol and forskolin on tension, cyclic AMP levels, and cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity in bovine coronary artery 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The effects of isoproterenol and forskolin on tension, cyclic AMP levels, and cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity were compared in helical strips of bovine coronary artery. Elevation of cyclic AMP and activation of the protein kinase appeared to be well correlated with relaxation of potassium-contracted arteries by isoproterenol. Forskolin, at 1 microM or higher concentrations, also markedly elevated cyclic AMP levels, activated the kinase, and relaxed the arteries. However, a lower concentration of forskolin (0.1 microM) caused significant increases in both cyclic AMP levels and cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity, but did not relax the muscles. Relaxation caused by isoproterenol was accompanied by an apparent translocation of cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity from the soluble to the particulate fraction in these preparations. A similar shift in the distribution of the kinase was caused by various concentrations of forskolin, irrespective of whether the arteries were relaxed or not. In contrast to previous results in other tissues, low concentrations of forskolin (less than or equal to 1 microM), which themselves markedly elevated cyclic AMP levels in the arteries, did not potentiate the effects of isoproterenol on cyclic AMP levels or tension in these preparations. These results suggest that either cyclic AMP is not solely responsible for the relaxation caused by these agents, or some form of functional compartmentalization of cyclic AMP and cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase exists in this tissue. 相似文献

A soluble rat liver nuclear extract containing total RNA polymerase activities also exhibits appreciable amounts of protein kinase activity. This unfractionated protein kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of both endogenous proteins and exogenous lysine-rich histone in the presence of [γ-32P]ATP and Mg2+. The optimal concentration of Mg2+ is 5 mm for histone phosphorylation and 25 mm for the phosphorylation of endogenous proteins. Cyclic AMP has no effect on the phosphorylation of lysine-rich histone by this unfractionated nuclear protein kinase. However, addition of cyclic AMP causes a reduction in the 32P-labeling of an endogenous protein (CAI) which can be characterized by its mobility during SDS-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and elution in the unbound fraction of a DEAESephadex column. If CAI is first labeled with 32P and then incubated with 10?6m cyclic AMP under conditions where protein kinase activity is inhibited, the presence of the cyclic nucleotide causes a loss of the 32P-labeling of this protein, implying the activation of a substrate-specific protein phosphatase. When rat liver RNA polymerases are purified by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography, protein kinase activity is found in the unbound fraction and in those column fractions containing RNA polymerase I and II. The fractionated protein kinases exhibit different responses to cyclic AMP, the unbound protein kinase being stimulated and the RNA polymerase-associated protein kinases being dramatically inhibited. A second protein (CAII) whose phosphorylated state is modified by cyclic AMP is found within the DEAE-Sephadex column fractions containing RNA polymerase II. The cyclic nucleotide in this case appears to reduce labeling of CAII by inhibition of the protein kinase activity which co-chromatographs with both CAII and RNA polymerase II. Based on molecular weight estimates, neither CAI nor CAII appears to be an RNA polymerase subunit. The identity of CAI as a protein factor whose phosphorylated state influences nuclear RNA synthesis is suggested by the fact that addition of fractions containing CAI to purified RNA polymerase II inhibits the activity of this enzyme, but only if CAI has been previously incubated in the presence of cyclic AMP. 相似文献

This study examined the binding of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP to receptor proteins in particulate and soluble subfractions of renal cortical homogenates from the golden hamster. The binding of both nucleotides was compared to subsequent effects of both nucleotides on the phosphorylation of histone from identical fractions. Cyclic AMP binding and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity predominated in the cytosol, with some binding and enzyme activity also detected in particulate fractions. Cyclic GMP and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase activity could only be demonstrated in cytosolic fractions and represented only 20-30% of cyclic AMP-dependent activity in this fraction. Binding of both nucleotides was highly specific, however, cyclic AMP showed some interaction with cyclic GMP binding. Evidence suggesting that each nucleotide interacts with a specific protein kinase was as follows: both the binding activity of the cyclic nucleotides and their combined protein kinase activity show additivity; cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP binding activity could be separated on sucrose gradients; cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP protein kinase activity could be separated with Sephadex G-100 chromatography, after preincubation of homogenate supernatants with either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP. The results demonstrate the presence of both cyclic AMP- and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase in renal cortex. 相似文献

Chinese hamster ovary cells exhibit several characteristic morphological and physiological responses upon treatment with agents which increase the intracellular level of adenosine 3':5'-phosphate (cyclic AMP). To better understand the mechanism of these cyclic AMP-mediated responses, we separated two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) (protein kinase I and protein kinase II) from the cytosol of Chinese hamster ovary cells by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and studied their properties. Protein kinase I is eluted at a lower salt concentration than protein kinase II and is stimulable to 10 times its basal catalytic activity, while protein kinase II is stimulable only 2-fold. Both kinases are completely dissociated by cyclic AMP and inhibited by specific cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. They have similar Km values for magnesium (approximately 1 mM), cyclic AMP (approximately 60 nM), and ATP (approximately 0.1 mM), and the dissociation constant (Kdis) for cyclic AMP (approximately 13 nM) is the same for both enzymes. However, they appear to have different substrate preferences and cyclic AMP-binding properties in that cyclic AMP bound to protein kinase II exchanges readily with free cyclic AMP, while that bound to protein kinase I is not exchangeable. The native enzymes have different sedimentation coefficients (6.4 S for protein kinase I and 4.8 S for protein kinase II), whereas those of the activated enzymes are the same (2.9--3.0 S). It appears that the two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases which differ from each other in their regulatory subunits may play different roles in the mediation of cyclic AMP action in Chinese hamster ovary cells. 相似文献

The relative efficiency of 1,N6-etheno-2aza-adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (cyclic 2-aza-epsilon AMP), 1,N6-etenoadenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (cyclic epsilon AMP) and cyclic AMP in activation of membrane protein kinase and binding to membrane was examined using isolated membranes from human erythrocytes. Cyclic 2-aza-epsilon AMP was 81% as active as cyclic AMP in erythrocyte membrane binding and activation of membrane protein kinase. On the other hand, cyclic epsilon AMP was 37% as active toward membrane protein kinase and 29% toward membrane cyclic AMP binding. Since we have previously shown that the fluorescence of cyclic 2-aza-epsilon AMP is highly sensitive to the polarity of solvents, the high efficiency of cyclic 2-aza-epsilon AMP to substitute for cyclic amp suggests that it may be a suitable microenvironmental fluorescent probe for cyclic AMP binding sites. 相似文献

Dopaminergic and glutamatergic signalling cascades are integrated in striatal medium spiny neurones by cyclic AMP response-element binding protein and Elk-1 phosphorylation. Phosphorylated cyclic AMP response-element binding protein and phosphorylated Elk-1 contribute to c-fos expression by binding to the calcium and cyclic AMP response-element and the serum response element, respectively, in the c-fos promoter. The role of cyclic AMP and mitogen-activated protein kinase signalling cascades in glutamate-induced cyclic AMP response-element binding protein and Elk-1 phosphorylation and Fos expression was investigated using semiquantitative immunocytochemistry in vivo. Intracerebroventricular infusion of the sodium channel blocker, tetrodotoxin, decreased the glutamate-induced increase in phosphorylated cyclic AMP response-element binding protein, phosphorylated Elk-1, and Fos immunoreactivity. Intracerebroventricular infusion of the mitogen-activated and extracellular signal-regulated kinase inhibitor, PD98059, the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor, SB203580, or the cyclic AMP inhibitor, Rp-8-Br-cAMPS, decreased glutamate-induced phosphorylated cyclic AMP response-element binding protein, phosphorylated Elk-1, and Fos immunoreactivity. Simultaneous infusion of glutamate and Sp-8-Br-cAMPS, a cyclic AMP analogue, augmented induction of Fos immunoreactivity but not phosphorylated cyclic AMP response-element binding protein or phosphorylated Elk-1 immunoreactivity. These data indicate that cyclic AMP and mitogen-activated protein kinase signalling cascades are necessary for glutamate to induce cyclic AMP response-element binding protein and Elk-1 phosphorylation and Fos expression in the striatum. Furthermore, neuronal activity plays an important role in glutamate-induced signalling cascades in vivo. 相似文献

The effects of epinephrine on cyclic AMP content and protein kinase activity were examined in an in situ rat heart preparation. Bolus injection of epinephrine into the superior vena cava caused an increase in the activity ratio (-cyclic AMP/"cyclic AMP) of 12 000 X g supernatant protein kinase. The increase was significant within 5 s and maximal in 10 s. Epinephrine produced a dose-dependent increase in both protein kinase activity ratio and cyclic AMP content. The increases in both parameters exhibited a high degree of correlation. The increase in protein kinase activity ratio observed with low doses of epinephrine (less than or equal to 1 microgram/kg) resulted from an increase in independent protein kinase activity (-cyclic AMP) without a change in total protein kinase activity (+cyclic AMP). However, the increase in the activity ratio observed with higher doses of epinephrine (greater than 1 microgram/kg) was due mainly to a decrease in total protein kinase activity rather than a further increase in independent protein kinase activity. The loss of supernatant total protein kinase activity could be accounted for by an increase in activity associated with particulate fractions obtained from the homogenates. A similar redistribution of protein kinase could be demonstrated by the addition of cyclic AMP to homogenates prepared from hearts not stimulated with epinephrine. These results demonstrate that epinephrine over a wide dose range produces a parallel increase in the content of cyclic AMP and the activation of soluble protein kinase. The findings also suggest that protein kinase translocation to particulate material may depend on the degree of epinephrine-induced enzyme activation. 相似文献

The effects of epinephrine on cyclic AMP content and protein kinase activity were examined in an in situ rat heart preparation. Bolus injection of epinephrine into the superior vena cava caused an increase in the activity ratio (—cyclic AMP/+cyclic AMP) of 12 000 × g supernatant protein kinase. The increase was significant within 5 s and maximal in 10 s. Epinephrine produced a dose-dependent increase in both protein kinase activity ratio and cyclic AMP content. The increases in both parameters exhibited a high degree of correlation. The increase in protein kinase activity ratio observed with low doses of epinephrine (less than or equal to 1 μg/kg) resulted from an increase in independent protein kinase activity (—cyclic 2 AMP) without a change in total protein observ activity (+cyclic AMP). However, the increase in the activity ratio observed with higher doses of epinephrine (greater than 1 μg/kg) was due mainly to a decrease in total protein kinase activity rather than a further increase in independent protein kinase activity. The loss of supernatant total protein kinase activity could be accounted for by an increase in activity associated with particulate fractions obtained from the homogenates. A similar redistribution of protein kinase could be demonstrated by the addition of cyclic AMP to homogenates prepared from hearts not stimulated with epinephrine. These results demonstrate that epinephrine over a wide dose range produces a parallel increase in the content of cyclic AMP and the activation of soluble protein kinase. The findings also suggest that protein kinase translocation to particulate material may depend on the degree of epinephrine-induced enzyme activation. 相似文献

The ability of cyclic AMP to inhibit growth, cause cytolysis and induce synthesis of cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase in S49.1 mouse lymphoma cells is deficient in cells selected on the basis of their resistance to killing by 2 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP. The properties of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) in the cyclic AMP-sensitive (S) and cyclic AMP-resistant (R) lymphoma cells were comparatively studied. The cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity or R cells cytosol exhibits an apparent Ka for activation by cyclic AMP 100-fold greater than that of the enzyme from the parental S cells. The free regulatory and catalytic subunits from both S and R kinase are thermolabile, when associated in the holoenzyme the two subunits are more stable to heat inactivation in R kinase than in S kinase. The increased heat stability of R kinase is observed however only for the enzyme in which the catalytic and cyclic AMP-binding activities are expressed at high cyclic AMP concentrations (10(-5)--10(-4) M), the activities expressed at low cyclic AMP concentrations (10(-9)--10(-6) M) being thermolabile. The regulatory subunit of S kinase can be stabilized against heat inactivation by cyclic AMP binding both at 2-10(-7) and 10(-5) M cyclic AMP concentrations. In contrast, the regulatory subunit-cyclic AMP complex from R kinase is stable to heat inactivation only when formed in the presence of high cyclic AMP concentrations (10(-5)M). The findings indicate that the transition from a cyclic AMP-sensitive to a cyclic AMP-resistant lymphoma cell phenotype is related to a structural alteration in the regulatory subunit of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase which has affected the protein's affinity for cyclic AMP and its interaction with the catalytic subunit. 相似文献

In liver cells isolated from fed female rats, glucagon (290nM) increased adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) content and decreased cyclic AMP binding 30 s after addition of hormones. Both returned to control values after 10 min. Glucagon also stimulated cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity at 30 s and decreased protein kinase activity assayed in the presence of 2 muM cyclic AMP at 1 min. Glucagon increased the levels of glycogen phosphorylase a, but there was no change in total glycogen phosphorylase activity. Glucagon increased glycogen phosphorylase a at concentrations considerably less than those required to affect cyclic AMP and protein kinase. The phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 1-methyl-3-isobutyl xanthine, potentiated the action of glucagon on all variables, but did not increase the maximuM activation of glycogen phosphorylase. Epinephrine (1muM) decreased cyclic AMP binding and increased glycogen phosphorylase a after a 1-min incubation with cells. Although 0.1 muM epinephrine stimulated phosphorylase a, a concentration of 10 muM was required to increase protein kinase activity. 1-Methyl-3-isobutyl xanthine (0.1 mM) potentiated the action of epinephrine on cyclic AMP and protein kinase. (-)-Propranolol (10muM) completely abolished the changes in cyclic AMP binding and protein kinase due to epinephrine (1muM) in the presence of 0.1mM 1-methyl-3-isobutyl xanthine, yet inhibited the increase in phosphorylase a by only 14 per cent. Phenylephrine (0.1muM) increased glycogen phosphorylase a, although concentrations as great as 10 muM failed to affect cyclic AMP binding or protein kinase in the absence of phosphodiesterase inhibitor. Isoproterenol (0.1muM) stimulated phosphorylase and decreased cyclic AMP binding, but only a concentration of 10muM increased protein kinase. 1-Methyl-3-isobutyl xanthine potentiated the action of isoproterenol on cyclic AMP binding and protein kinase, and propranolol reduced the augmentation of glucose release and glycogen phosphorylase activity due to isoproterenol. These data indicate that both alpha- and beta-adrenergic agents are capable of stimulating glycogenolysis and glycogen phosphorylase a in isolated rat liver cells. Low concentrations of glucagon and beta-adrenergic agonists stimulate glycogen phosphorylase without any detectable increase in cyclic AMP or protein kinase activity. The effects of alpha-adrenergic agents appear to be completely independent of changes in cyclic AMP protein kinase activity. 相似文献
