Purification and characterization of a calmodulin-sensitive adenylate cyclase from Bordetella pertussis 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Bordetella pertussis, the bacterium responsible for whooping cough, releases a soluble, calmodulin-sensitive adenylate cyclase into its culture medium. B. pertussis mutants deficient in this enzyme are avirulent, indicating that the adenylate cyclase contributes to the pathogenesis of the disease. It has been proposed that B. pertussis adenylate cyclase may enter animal cells and increase intracellular adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) levels. We have purified the enzyme extensively from culture medium using anion-exchange chromatography in the presence and absence of calmodulin and gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme was purified 1600-fold to a specific activity of 608 mumol of cAMP min-1 mg-1 and was free of islet activating protein. The molecular weight of the enzyme was 43 400 in the absence of calmodulin and 54 200 in the presence of calmodulin. The Km of the bacterial enzyme for adenosine 5'-triphosphate was 2.0 mM, whereas the Km of the calmodulin-sensitive adenylate cyclase from bovine brain was 0.07 mM. Although the enzyme was not purified to homogeneity, its turnover number of 27 000 min-1 is the highest documented for any adenylate cyclase preparation. 相似文献

Regulation of adenylate cyclase in cultured cardiocytes from neonatal rats by adenosine and other agonists 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The presence of adenosine receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase in cultured cardiocytes from atria and ventricles from neonatal rats is demonstrated in these studies. N-Ethylcarboxamideadenosine (NECA), l-N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA), and 2-chloroadenosine (2-cl-Ado) stimulated adenylate cyclase in a concentration-dependent manner in both cultured atrial and ventricular cells. The order of potency of stimulation was NECA > PIA > 2-cl-Ado. The stimulation of adenylate cyclase by NECA was enhanced by guanine nucleotides and was blocked by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine in both these cells. Other agonists such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, F?, and forskolin were also able to stimulate adenylate cyclase, although the extent of stimulation by these agents was higher in ventricular than in atrial cells. The stimulation of adenylate cyclase by epinephrine and norepinephrine was inhibited by propranolol but not by phentolamine. On the other hand, phentolamine, propranolol, and haloperidol inhibited dopamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity to the same extent. Forskolin, at its maximal concentration, potentiated the stimulatory effect of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine on adenylate cyclase in both atrial and ventricular cardiocytes, but the interaction of NECA with epinephrine, norepinephrine, or dopamine was different in atrial and ventricular cells. The stimulation by an optimal concentration of NECA was additive with maximal stimulation by the catecholamines in atrial cells but not in ventricular cells. The data suggest the existence of adenosine “Ra” and catecholamine receptors in cultured atrial and ventricular cardiocytes. It can be postulated that adenosine in addition to its role as a potent vasodilator might regulate cardiac performance through its interaction with “Ra” receptors associated with adenylate cyclase. The difference in the mode of interaction of adenosine with catecholamines in atrial and ventricular cells suggests that the mechanism by which these agents activate adenylate cyclase may be different in these cells. 相似文献

The Nb2 T lymphoma is unique in that these lymphocytes proliferate in response to prolactin as well as in response to interleukin-2. In this study, we have examined the responsiveness of the adenylate cyclase system in Nb2 cells and the role of this signaling system in regulating proliferation and protein phosphorylation. An analog of cAMP inhibited prolactin-stimulated proliferation and blocked a prolactin-induced decrease in protein phosphorylation. Forskolin, a potent activator of adenylate cyclase in T lymphocytes, did not elevate cAMP levels in Nb2 cells and was not an effective inhibitor of prolactin-induced proliferation. In fact, one preparation of forskolin stimulated proliferation of quiescent Nb2 cells. Like forskolin, prostaglandin E2 did not stimulate cAMP production in Nb2 cells even though it increased cAMP in a preparation of rat peripheral blood lymphocytes. Cholera toxin appeared to ADP-ribosylate a stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein in Nb2 cells, but the toxin did not increase intracellular levels of cAMP nor was it a potent anti-mitogenic agent. Pertussis toxin, an agent that can increase cAMP production through suppression of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein, exerted only minor anti-proliferative actions on prolactin-stimulated Nb2 cells. These data suggest that cAMP inhibits Nb2 cell proliferation and prolactin-induced changes in protein phosphorylation but that the adenylate cyclase system in our clone of Nb2 cells responds poorly to agents that normally increase cAMP. 相似文献

The regulation of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides in Dictyostelium discoideum membranes 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Extracellular cAMP induces the activation of adenylate cyclase in Dictyostelium discoideum cells. Conditions for both stimulation and inhibition of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides in membranes are reported. Stimulation and inhibition were induced by GTP and non-hydrolysable guanosine triphosphates. GDP and non-hydrolysable guanosine diphosphates were antagonists. Stimulation was maximally twofold, required a cytosolic factor and was observed only at temperatures below 10 degrees C. An agonist of the cAMP-receptor-activated basal and GTP-stimulated adenylate cyclase 1.3-fold. Adenylate cyclase in mutant N7 could not be activated by cAMP in vivo; in vitro adenylate cyclase was activated by guanine nucleotides in the presence of the cytosolic factor of wild-type but of not mutant cells. Preincubation of membranes under phosphorylation conditions has been shown to alter the interaction between cAMP receptor and G protein [Van Haastert (1986) J. Biol. Chem. in the press]. These phosphorylation conditions converted stimulation to inhibition of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides. Inhibition was maximally 30% and was not affected by the cytosolic factor involved in stimulation. In membranes obtained from cells that were treated with pertussis toxin, adenylate cyclase stimulation by guanine nucleotides was as in control cells, whereas inhibition by guanine nucleotides was lost. When cells were desensitized by exposure to cAMP agonists for 15 min, and adenylate cyclase was measured in isolated membranes, stimulation by guanine nucleotides was lost while inhibition was retained. These results suggest that Dictyostelium discoideum adenylate cyclase may be regulated by Gs-like and Gi-like activities, and that the action of Gs but not Gi is lost during desensitization in vivo and by phosphorylation conditions in vitro. 相似文献

Vimentin is transiently co-localized with and phosphorylated by cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase in formyl-peptide-stimulated neutrophils. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase), a major cellular receptor of cGMP, were investigated in activated human neutrophils. Immunocytochemistry demonstrated that G-kinase translocated from a diffuse localization in the cytoplasm to the cytoskeleton and nucleus after stimulation with N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), and transiently co-localized with the intermediate filament protein, vimentin. During this time period, the most remarkable co-localization of G-kinase and vimentin was observed between 1-2.5 min stimulation with fMLP. At that time co-localization of G-kinase and vimentin was predominantly confined to filaments which extended from regions adjacent to the nucleus into the uropod. Distinctive localization for only G-kinase was observed at the microtubule organizing center and euchromatin of the nucleus. The filamentous staining pattern for G-kinase and vimentin was enhanced in the presence of 8-Br-cGMP. Coincident with co-localization of G-kinase and vimentin in adherent neutrophils was a transient increase in cGMP levels and an increase in the phosphorylation of vimentin in fMLP-stimulated cells. The increase in cGMP levels was dependent upon cell adherence, was enhanced by preincubating neutrophils with L-arginine (the precursor for nitric oxide synthesis), and attenuated with the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, NG-monomethyl-L-arginine. Phosphorylation of vimentin in the fMLP-stimulated neutrophil was observed in the presence or absence of exogenous cGMP, although in the presence of low concentrations of 8-Br-cGMP a more rapid phosphorylation of vimentin was observed that correlated with the enhanced co-localization of G-kinase and vimentin. Phosphorylation of vimentin was not observed in non-activated cells treated with 8-Br-cGMP, suggesting that phosphorylation only occurs when G-kinase is co-localized with vimentin. The presence of the protein kinase C inhibitors, staurosporine or H-7, did not inhibit vimentin phosphorylation during fMLP stimulation, while 8-Br-cGMP enhanced phosphorylation in fMLP-treated cells. This suggests that neither protein kinase C nor cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalyze the phosphorylation of vimentin in neutrophils activated by fMLP. These results indicate that vimentin and G-kinase are co-localized in neutrophils and that vimentin is phosphorylated by G-kinase in response to the co-localization of the two proteins. A model for the targeting of G-kinase and vimentin is presented which hypothesizes that the transient redistribution of G-kinase may regulate neutrophil activation. 相似文献

The Action of Adenosine Analogs on PC12 Cells 总被引:16,自引:5,他引:11

Abstract: PC12 cells, a nerve growth factor–responsive clone of rat pheochromocytoma, contain a membrane–bound adenylate cyclase, which can be activated by adenosine analogs. The characteristics of the cyclase response indicate the presence of stimulatory adenosine receptors. Adenosine analogs also produce a marked increase in the ornithine decarboxylase levels of the cells, and the characteristics of this response suggest that it is linked to the adenylate cyclase–stimulatory adenosine receptors. The ornithine decarboxylase response elicited by 5'- N -ethyIcarboxamideadenosine (NECA), a potent stimulatory adenosine analog, is synergistic with that produced by nerve growth factor. Differentiation of the cells with nerve growth factor, however, does not substantially alter either the response of cyclase to the adenosine analog or the magnitude of the adenosine–evoked ornithine decarboxylase response. Treatment of the cells with NECA produces an increase in the phosphorylation of a specific non–histone nuclear protein. While causing little or no morphological alteration by itself, NECA is synergistic with nerve growth factor in producing neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. NECA does not cause an induction of acetylcholinesterase in the cells, nor does it appear to affect the induction of this enzyme by nerve growth factor. 相似文献

Rat fat cells incubated with lipolytic agents released substances to the medium which acted as feedback regulators of cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) accumulation. The feedback regulators were not removed by adenosine deaminase. Dialyzed medium that had previously been incubated with fat cells in the presence of norepinephrine markedly inhibited cyclic AMP accumulation by fresh cells, whereas dialyzed medium from control cells did not inhibit cyclic AMP accumulation. The effects of lipolytic agents could be mimicked by adding dialyzed medium previously incubated with fat cells in the presence of oleic acid. This suggested that free fatty acids were the nondialyzable and adenosine deaminase-insensitive inhibitors of cyclic AMP accumulation released to the medium by fat cells incubated with lipolytic agents. The regulatory function of free fatty acids was related to the molar ratio of fatty acid to albumin. Profound inhibition of both lipolysis and cyclic AMP accumulation was seen as the free fatty acid/albumin ratio exceeded 3. The inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation by oleate was seen as soon as there was a detectable increase in cyclic AMP due to lipolytic agents. Protein kinase activity (in the presence of cyclic AMP) of the infranatant obtained after centrifugation of fat cell homogenates at 48,000 x g was inhibited by medium from cells incubated with lipolytic agents or added oleate. Adenylate cyclase activity of rat fat cell ghosts was also inhibited by dialyzed or nondialyzed medium that previously had been incubated with lipolytic agents or added fatty acids. The direct addition of oleate markedly inhibited adenylate cyclase activity as the free fatty acid/albumin ratio exceeded 2. These data suggest that the prolonged drop in cyclic AMP accumulation seen during the incubation of rat fat cells with lipolytic agents is due to the inhibition of adenylate cyclase. This occurs when the free fatty acid/albumin ratio exceeds 3. 相似文献

The regulatory component (G/F) of adenylate cyclase, which has been purified previously, contains three putative subunits with molecular weights of 52,000, 45,000, and 35,000 (Northup, J. K., Sternweis, P. C., Smigel, M. D., Schleifer, L. S., Ross, E. M., and Gilman, A. G. (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 77, 6516-6520). The published procedure has been modified to reduce the time required for preparation and to increase the yield. Application of the improved procedure allows purification of .5 to 1.0 mg of purified G/F from 1.5 kg of frozen rabbit liver. Greater than 95% of the protein observed on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels is found in the three bands mentioned above. Purified G/F has the following properties: 1. Hydrodynamic measurements in cholate indicate that purified hepatic G/F has a molecular weight of about 70,000. If G/F is activated with either fluoride or GTP analogs, its apparent molecular weight is reduced to 50,000. 2. The measurement of G/F by reconstitution with the catalytic moiety of adenylate cyclase is dependent on the concentrations of both G/F and catalytic moiety. This interaction is consistent with a model derived from a simple bimolecular binding equilibrium. 3. Purified G/F can be activated by fluoride and guanine nucleotide analogs in a Mg2+-dependent reaction. The rate of activation by guanine nucleotides is markedly stimulated by high concentrations of Mg2+, indicating a site of action of divalent metallic cations on G/F. 4. The 52,000- and 45,000-dalton polypeptides can be partially resolved by heptylamine-Sepharose chromatography. G/F fractions that are enriched in the 52,000-dalton protein reconstitute hormone-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity more efficiently and are activated by GTP analogs more rapidly than are fractions that are essentially free of this polypeptide. The 35,000-dalton protein is present in all cases. 相似文献

Calcium-dependent Desensitization of Adenylate Cyclase in Rat Cerebral Cortical Slices 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Incubation of slices of rat cerebral cortical grey matter in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate-glucose buffer induced a rapid decline in the responsiveness of the adenylate cyclase in subsequently prepared membrane preparations to stimulation by various activators of the enzyme. The loss of responsiveness was time- and temperature-dependent, showed an absolute dependence on extracellular calcium ions, and was mimicked by the presence of serine proteases in the incubation medium. The resultant adenylate cyclase preparation was partially responsive to activation by fluoride and guanylylimidodiphosphate but had become virtually unresponsive to activation by ganglioside, trypsin, or beta-adrenergic agonists. The loss of responsiveness of adenylate cyclase was not altered if slices were incubated with depolarizing agents, putative neurotransmitters, receptor blockers, serine protease inhibitors, or adenosine deaminase. The nature of the calcium-dependent mechanism involved in the loss responsiveness of membranal adenylate cyclase is unknown. A suggested mechanism for the loss of sensitivity is the action of a membrane-bound, calcium-dependent protease. 相似文献

The kinetics for inactivation of rat liver plasma membrane adenylate cyclase by iodoacetic acid and iodoacetamide has been measured in the presence and absence of glucagon. Glucagon stimulated the rate of iodoacetic acid inhibition by a factor 9f 2.3-fold and iodoacetamide inhibition by 10-fold. These results suggest that interaction of glucagon with its receptor in the membrane resulted in conformational changes which increased either the exposure or nucleophilicity of one or more sulfhydryl groups crucial for adenylate cyclase activity. Membranes were treated with radioactively labeled iodoacetamide or iodoacetic acid in the presence or absence of glucagon and run on 5 and 7.5% sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gels. These labeling experiments revealed that two membrane components were more extensively labeled in the presence of glucagon. The first component had an apparent molecular weight of 240,000 on sodium dodecyl sulfate gels and stained positive with Coomassie blue and periodate Schiff reagent. This polypeptide accounted for approximately 1.3% of the total membrane protein. The second component had an apparent molecular weight less than 10,000 and could not be correlated directly with a well defined protein band on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels. The enhancement in labeling of the 240,000 molecular weight component seen in the presence of glucagon agreed very well with that predicted from the kinetics for inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity in the presence and absence of glucagon. This correlation suggests that the component selectively labeled by this technique may be an integral component of the adenylate cyclase system and that hormone-induced conformational changes may be used to selectively label components of the adenylate cyclase system in mammalian membranes. 相似文献

Receptor-mediated activation of electropermeabilized neutrophils. Evidence for a Ca2+- and protein kinase C-independent signaling pathway 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Electrically permeabilized neutrophils were used to study the mechanism of activation of the respiratory burst by the chemotactic agent formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). Permeabilization was assessed by flow cytometry, radioisotope trapping, and by the requirement for exogenous NADPH for oxygen consumption. A respiratory burst could be elicited by fMLP, phorbol ester, or diacylglycerol in permeabilized cells suspended in EGTA-buffered medium with 100 nM free Ca2+. The fMLP response persisted even in cells depleted of intracellular Ca2+ stores by pretreatment with ionomycin. Therefore, a change in cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) is not required for receptor-mediated stimulation of the respiratory burst. The responses induced by phorbol ester and diacylglycerol were largely inhibited by H7, a protein kinase C antagonist. In contrast, the stimulation of oxygen consumption by fMLP was unaffected by H7. These results suggest that a third signaling pathway, distinct from changes in [Ca2+]i and activation of protein kinase C, is involved in the response of neutrophils to chemoattractants. 相似文献

The maturing rat reticulocyte was used as a model system in which to study developmental changes in the protein components of hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase. Plasma membranes from rat erythrocytes display 10 to 20% of the adenylate cyclase activity and 30 to 50% of the beta-adrenergic receptors which are measured in membranes from rat reticulocytes, as noted by others. Reticulocyte membranes also display equal activities in response to (-)-isoproterenol in the presence of either GTP or GTP gamma S, whereas erythrocyte membrane adenylate cyclase is twice as active in the presence of isoproterenol plus GTP gamma S as in the presence of isoproterenol plus GTP. We have studied this system in greater detail by developing or applying independent assays for the catalytic protein (C) and the guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein (G/F) of adenylate cyclase. C was assayed in membranes by its intrinsic Mn2+-stimulated activity. It was also measured by reconstituting membranes with saturating amounts of GTP gamma S-activated G/F, yielding an operationally defined Vmax for the catalyst. By either assay, reticulocytes display about 3-fold greater C activity than do erythrocytes. G/F was assayed by its ability to confer GTP gamma S-stimulated activity upon C (which was supplied by membranes of cyc- S49 lymphoma cells). This assay indicates that reticulocyte membranes contain about 3 times as much G/F as do erythrocyte membranes. Cholera toxin and [32P]NAD were used to [32P]ADP-ribosylate the 45,000- and 52,000-dalton subunits of G/F. Total incorporation of 32P into these subunits decreased 3- to 4-fold with reticulocyte maturation. The ratio of label in the 52,000-dalton peptide to that in the 45,000-dalton peptide decreased from 0.29 in reticulocyte membranes to 0.14 in erythrocyte membranes. The apparently coordinate decrease in the amounts of C, G/F, and beta-adrenergic receptors suggest that the stoichiometry between these components is maintained during maturation, and may account for the decrease in adenylate cyclase in the membranes. However, the qualitative changes in responsiveness to hormones in the presence of GTP or GTP gamma S may be related to loss or proteolysis of the 52,000-dalton subunit of G/F. 相似文献

Plasma membranes were prepared after density gradient separation of erythroid cells obtained from bled animals. In a fraction enriched in young reticulocytes (lowest density), the basal and the prostaglandin stimulated adenylate cyclase were greatly augmented if compared with the membranes from unfractionated cells or from the layers of higher densities. Potentiation by GTP or soluble factor(s) of the prostaglandin stimulated adenylate cyclase was found solely in the fractions containing the youngest cells (lowest density). A very significant augmentation of both the basal and the effectors stimulated adenylate cyclase was obtained when the white blood cells and the platelets were removed by filtration through alpha-cellulose prior to density separation. A small population of probably very young reticulocytes was shown to contain a very active adenylate cyclase coupled to the hormonal receptor. Upon short time of maturation this coupling could no longer be detected. The cAMP generated in the fraction enriched in young reticulocytes increased the phosphorylation of some membrane proteins. The presence of a hormonally regulated adenylate cyclase and eventually the phosphorylation of some specific membrane proteins by the cAMP generated in situ permit to envisage possible functions of this system in young reticulocytes. 相似文献

Regulation of adenylate cyclase by adenosine and other agonists in rat myocardial sarcolemma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The presence of adenosine receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase in rat heart sarcolemma is demonstrated in these studies. Heart sarcolemma was isolated by the hypotonic shock-Lithium bromide treatment method. This preparation contained negligible amounts (2-4%) of contamination by other subcellular organelles such as mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and myofibrils as verified by electron microscopic examination. In addition this preparation was also devoid of endothelial cells, since angiotensin-converting enzyme activity was not detected in this preparation. N-Ethylcarboxamide adenosine (NECA), L-N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA), and adenosine N'-oxide (Ado N'-oxide) were all able to stimulate adenylate cyclase in heart sarcolemma, but not in crude homogenate, with an apparent Ka of 3-7 microM. The activation of adenylate cyclase by NECA was dependent on the concentrations of metal ions such as Mg2+ or Mn2+. The maximal stimulation was observed at lower concentrations of the metal ions (0.2-0.5 mM). At 5 mM Mg2+ or Mn2+, the stimulation by NECA was completely abolished. The stimulatory effect of NECA on adenylate cyclase was also dependent on guanine nucleotides and was blocked by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. In addition, 2'-deoxyadenosine showed an inhibitory effect on adenylate cyclase. The myocardial adenylate cyclase was also stimulated by beta-adrenergic agonists, dopamine and glucagon, and inhibited by cholinergic agonists such as carbachol and oxotremorine. The stimulation of adenylate cyclase by NECA was found to be additive with maximal stimulation obtained by epinephrine. These data suggest that rat heart sarcolemma contains adenosine (Ra), beta-adrenergic, dopaminergic, glucagon, and cholinergic receptors, and the stimulation of adenylate cyclase by epinephrine and adenosine occurs by distinctly different mechanism or adenosine and epinephrine stimulate different cyclase populations. 相似文献

—Adenylate cyclase activity of permeabilized neuroblastoma cells was measured by the conversion of [α32P]ATP into labelled cyclic AMP. Adenosine (10?6 - 10?4m ) induced a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP formation. This effect could not be accounted for either by an adenosine-induced inhibition of the phosphodiesterase activity present in the enzyme preparation, or by a direct conversion of adenosine into cyclic AMP. This indicates that the observed increase in cyclic AMP accumulation reflected an activation of adenylate cyclase. Adenosine is partially metabolized during the course of incubation with the enzyme preparation. However, none of the identified non-phosphorylated adenosine metabolites were able to induce an adenylate cyclase activation. This suggests that adenosine itself is the stimulatory agent. The apparent Km of the adenylate cyclase for adenosine was 5 ± 10?6-10?5m . Maximal activation represented 3-4 times the basal value (10-100 pmol cyclic AMP formed/10 min/mg protein). The adenosine effect was stereospecific, since structural analogues of adenosine were inactive. Adenosine increased the maximal velocity of the adenylate cyclase reaction. The stimulatory effect of adenosine was inhibited by theophylline. Prostaglandin PGE1 had a stimulatory effect much more pronounced than that of adenosine (6-10-fold the basal value at 10?6m ). Dopamine and norepinephrine induced a slight adenylate cyclase activation which was not potentiated by adenosine. It is concluded that adenosine is able to activate directly neuroblastoma cell adenylate cyclase. It seems very likely that such a direct activation is also present in intact nervous tissue and account, at least partly, for the observed cyclic AMP accumulation in response to adenosine. 相似文献

L-Histidine and imidazole (the histidine side chain) significantly increase cAMP accumulation in intact LLC-PK1 cells. This effect is completely inhibited by isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX). Histidine and imidazole stimulate cAMP phosphodiesterase activity in soluble and membrane fractions of LLC-PK1 cells suggesting that the IBMX-sensitive effect of these agents to stimulate cAMP formation is not due to inhibition of cAMP phosphodiesterase. Histidine and imidazole but not alanine (the histidine core structure) increase basal, GTP-, forskolin-, and AVP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 membranes. Two other amino acids with charged side chains (aspartic and glutamic acids) increase AVP-stimulated but neither basal- nor forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. This suggests that multiple amino acids with charged side chains can regulate selected aspects of adenylate cyclase activity. To better define the mechanism of histidine regulation of adenylate cyclase, membranes were detergent-solubilized which prevents histidine and imidazole potentiation of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity and suggests that an intact plasma membrane environment is required for potentiation. Neither pertussis toxin nor indomethacin pretreatment alter imidazole potentiation of adenylate cyclase. IBMX pretreatment of LLC-PK1 membranes also prevents imidazole to potentiate adenylate cyclase activity. Since IBMX inhibits adenylate cyclase coupled adenosine receptors, LLC-PK1 cells were incubated in vitro with 5'-N-ethylcarboxyamideadenosine (NECA) which produced a homologous pattern of desensitization of NECA to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity. Despite homologous desensitization, histidine and imidazole potentiation of adenylate cyclase was unaltered. These data suggest that histidine, acting via an imidazole ring, potentiates adenylate cyclase activity and thereby increases cAMP formation in cultured LLC-PK1 epithelial cells. This potentiation requires an intact plasma membrane environment, occurs independent of a pertussis toxin-sensitive substrate and of products of cyclooxygenase, and is inhibited by IBMX. This IBMX-sensitive pathway does not involve either inhibition of cAMP phosphodiesterase activity or a stimulatory adenosine receptor coupled to adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic factor receptors are negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase in cultured atrial and ventricular cardiocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
M B Anand-Srivastava M Cantin 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1986,138(1):427-436
We have studied the effect of synthetic rat atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on adenylate cyclase activity in cultured cardiocytes from atria (left and right) and ventricles from neonatal rats. ANF (Arg 101-Tyr 126) inhibited adenylate cyclase activity in a concentration dependent manner in cultured atrial (right and left atria) and ventricular cells. However the inhibition was greater in atrial cells as compared to ventricular cells. The maximal inhibition observed in ventricular cells was about 35% with an apparent Ki of about 10(-10) M, whereas about 55% inhibition with an apparent Ki between 5 X 10(-10) M and 65% inhibition with an apparent Ki of 10(-9) M were observed in right and left atrial cardiocytes respectively. The inhibitory effect of ANF was dependent on the presence of guanine nucleotides. Various hormones and agents such as isoproterenol, prostaglandins, adenosine, forskolin and sodium fluoride stimulated adenylate cyclase activities to various degrees in these atrial and ventricular cardiocytes. ANF inhibited the stimulatory responses of all these agonists, however the degree of inhibition varied for each agent. In addition ANF also inhibited cAMP levels in these cells. These data indicate that ANF receptors are present in cardiocytes and are negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

To ascertain the presence of adenosine receptors in the trout testis, cells isolated from testes at different spermatogenetic stages were cultured in the presence or absence of adenosine, adenosine receptor agonists, or antagonists and of cAMP analogs, for up to 20 min, or 20 hr, or 4.5 days. Cyclic AMP production was then assayed or 3H-thymidine incorporation was measured. Cellular content of cAMP was enhanced by adenosine, by the adenosine receptor agonist 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA), and by 2-p(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino-5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (CGS-21680), an adenosine A2A receptor-selective agonist. The increase in cAMP induced by the adenylate cyclase activator L-858051 was inhibited by the adenosine A1)receptor-selective agonists R-N6-(2-phenylisopropyl)adenosine (R-PIA) and N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA). These effects were antagonized by the two adenosine A2)receptor antagonists 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX) and 8-(3-chlorostyryl)caffeine (CSC), and by the adenosine A1)receptor-selective antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3dipropylxanthine (CPX), respectively. Increase in the cAMP content induced by adenosine was inhibited by the cell permeable adenylate cyclase inhibitor 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine. These data suggest that A(1) and A(2) adenosine receptors which respectively inhibit and stimulate adenylate cyclase activity are present on trout testicular cells (unidentified), while the presence of A3 adenosine receptor subtype was not apparent. 3H-thymidine incorporation decreased in the presence of the adenylate cyclase activator L-858051 and of the cAMP analogs 8-CPT cAMP and Sp-5,6-DCI-cBiMPS, regardless of the presence or absence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor RO 20-1724. This suggests that an increase in testicular cAMP may act as a negative growth regulator for the mitotic germ cells. In agreement with these data, the activation of A2 stimulatory receptors inhibited short-term (20 hr) DNA synthesis. However, the activation of A1 inhibitory receptors had the same effect. This suggests that events, cAMP-dependent or independent, induced by the activation of testicular adenosine receptors, may participate in the regulation of trout male germ cell proliferation. 相似文献

In 32PO4-labeled adipocytes, isoproterenol (ISO) or physiologically relevant concentrations of insulin rapidly increased phosphorylation of a particulate 135-kDa protein which has been identified as a cGMP-inhibited "low Km" cAMP phosphodiesterase (CGI-PDE) by several criteria, including selective immunoprecipitation with anti-CGI-PDE IgG (Degerman, E., Smith, C.J., Tornqvist, H., Vasta, V., Belfrage, P., and Manganiello, V.C. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 87, 533-537). The time courses and concentration dependences for phosphorylation of CGI-PDE by ISO and insulin correlated with CGI-PDE activation in the presence of these agents; effects of ISO were somewhat more rapid than those of insulin. Adenosine deaminase, which metabolizes the adenylate cyclase inhibitor adenosine, also rapidly induced phosphorylation and activation of CGI-PDE. Phenylisopropyladenosine (an adenosine deaminase-resistant adenosine analog) prevented or reversed both adenosine deaminase-stimulated phosphorylation and activation of CGI-PDE (IC50 approximately 0.2 nM). Incubation of adipocytes with 0.1 nM insulin in the presence of ISO rapidly produced 30-200% greater activation and phosphorylation of CGI-PDE than the expected added effects of insulin and ISO individually; both effects preceded the insulin-induced decreases in protein kinase A activity and inhibition of lipolysis. These and other results indicate that CGI-PDE can be phosphorylated at distinct sites and activated by cAMP-dependent and insulin-dependent serine kinase(s), that the activation state of CGI-PDE reflects its relative phosphorylation state, and that synergistic phosphorylation/activation of CGI-PDE may be important in the antilipolytic action of insulin. 相似文献
