In the present study we characterized a "crosstalk" mechanism between transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF beta-1) and endothelin-1 (ET1) signaling pathways in neonatal cardiac myocytes. A 5 minute pretreatment with 1 ng/ml concentrations of TGF beta-1 attenuated ET1-induced negative chronotropic effects and translocation of the alpha, delta and varepsilonPKC isozymes to the particulate cell fraction. We found no effect of TGF beta-1 on responses induced by the P(2) purinergic agonist ATP or phorbol ester. Treatment of cardiac myocytes with acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) did not alter ET1- or ATP-mediated effects on contraction rate or translocation of PKC isozymes to the particulate fraction. Our studies suggest that TGF beta-1 may act as a negative modulator of ET1- but not ATP- or phorbol ester-induced PKC isozyme signaling events in neonatal cardiac myocytes. A better understanding of the complex ET1 and TGF beta-1 signaling mechanisms in neonatal heart cells should enhance our knowledge regarding the interplay between these pathways. 相似文献

Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) is thought to involve translocation to the particulate fraction. The present study demonstrates a membrane-associated, inactive pool of PKC in adult rat ventricular myocytes. Membranes were isolated from stimulated (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), endothelin-1 (ET-1)) or control myocytes and PKC activity determined in the absence (active PKC) or presence (total PKC) of PMA. An inactive, PMA-responsive, pool of PKC was detected. In intact myocytes, PMA or ET-1 induced a translocation of PKC epsilon from the cytosol into the particulate fraction. In contrast, ET-1 decreased both total and active PKC in the membranes: this decrease was associated with a loss of PKC epsilon immunoreactivity. PMA increased the amount of membrane-associated, inactive PKC. Our results demonstrate the presence of a membrane-associated pool of PKC in cardiac myocytes that is differentially modulated by ET-1 or PMA. 相似文献

The aims of the current study were: 1) to determine if the epsilonPKC pseudosubstrate peptide (epsilonphi) (NH(2)-RKRQGAVRRRVHQVNG-COOH) could be used as an epsilonPKC-selective inhibitor in neonatal cardiac myocytes (NCMs) and 2) to determine if differences in the alpha and epsilonPKC autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate mechanisms could play roles in alpha and epsilonPKC-selective functions. Introduction of the epsilonphi into NCMs by transient permeabilization modestly attenuated 3 nM 4-beta PMA-induced slowing of contraction rate, an epsilonPKC mediated response (Circ Res. 76:654-663; J. Biol. Chem. 271:24962-24966). In contrast, the alphaPKC pseudosubstrate peptide (alphaphi) (NH(2)-RFARKGALRQKNVHEVK-COOH) was 6- to 10-fold more potent at antagonizing the 3 nM 4-beta PMA-induced slowing of contraction rate. Addition of purified PKC to the particulate cell fraction of NCMs promoted (32)P incorporation into 3 proteins of approximately 18, approximately 46 and approximately 97 kDa. The alphaphi antagonized these phosphorylations with IC(50) values of 1 - 5 microM. These IC(50) values were 1.8 - 4.7-fold lower than those observed for the epsilonphi. In in vitro phosphorylation assays with recombinant alpha or epsilon PKC isozymes the phi failed to inhibit the PKC isozyme as potently as the alphaphi peptide but both the alphaphi and the epsilonphi were equally effective inhibitors of the recombinant alphaPKC isozyme. In addition, in vitro cleavage of the epsilonphi by the protease Arg-C in lysates from NCMs treated with 3 nM 4-beta PMA was greatly enhanced when compared to that of the alphaPKC isozyme. Our studies suggest that the epsilonphi cannot be used as a selective inhibitor of the epsilonPKC isozyme in NCMs and that there are differences in the epsilonPKC and alphaPKC autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate mechanisms. 相似文献

We observed that phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulates transcytosis of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) in MDCK cells. Apical release of pre-endocytosed ligand (dimeric IgA) bound to the pIgR can be stimulated twofold within 7 min of addition of PMA while recycling of the ligand from the basal surface is not affected. In addition, apical surface delivery of pIgR and cleavage of its ectodomain to secretory component (SC) is also stimulated by PMA. The recycling of apically internalized ligand back to the apical surface is similarly stimulated. These results suggest that the stimulation of apical delivery is from an apical recycling compartment. The effect of PMA suggests that protein kinase C (PKC) is involved in the regulation of pIgR trafficking in MDCK cells. To test this we down regulated PKC activity by pre-treating cells with PMA for 16 h and observed that transcytosis could no longer be stimulated by PMA. Western blots show that the PKC isozymes alpha and to a lesser extent epsilon, are depleted from MDCK cells which have been pre-treated with PMA for 16 h and that treatment of MDCK cells with PMA for 5 min causes a dramatic translocation of the PKC alpha isozyme and a partial translocation of the epsilon isozyme from the cytosol to the membrane fraction of cell homogenates. This translocation suggests that the alpha and/or epsilon isozymes may be involved in PMA mediated stimulation of transcytosis. A mutant pIgR in which serines 664 and 726, the major sites of phosphorylation, are replaced by alanine is stimulated to transcytose by PMA, suggesting that phosphorylation of pIgR at these sites is not required for the effect of PMA. These results suggest that PMA-mediated stimulation of pIgR transcytosis may involve the activation of PKC alpha and/or epsilon, and that this stimulation occurs independently of the major phosphorylation sites on the pIgR. Finally, PMA stimulates transcytosis of basolaterally internalized transferrin, suggesting that PMA acts to generally stimulate delivery of endocytosed proteins to the apical surface. 相似文献

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) protects neonatal rat cardiac myocytes from hypoxic damage through unknown signaling pathways. We tested the hypothesis that S1P-induced cardioprotection requires activation by the epsilon-isoform of protein kinase C (PKC epsilon) by subjecting hearts isolated from PKC epsilon knockout mice and wild-type mice to 20 min of global ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion. Pretreatment with a 2-min infusion of 10 nM S1P improved recovery of left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) in both wild-type and PKC epsilon knockout hearts and reduced the rise in LV end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and creatine kinase (CK) release. Pretreatment for 2 min with 10 nM of the ganglioside GM-1 also improved recovery of LVDP and suppressed CK release in wild-type hearts but not in PKC epsilon knockout hearts. Importantly, GM-1 but not S1P, increased the proportion of PKC epsilon localized to particulate fractions. Our results suggest that GM-1, which enhances endogenous S1P production, reduces cardiac injury through PKC epsilon-dependent intracellular pathways. In contrast, extracellular S1P induces equivalent cardioprotection through PKC epsilon-independent signaling pathways. 相似文献

We examined which isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC) may be involved in the regulation of cationic amino acid transporter-1 (CAT-1) transport activity in cultured pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC). An activator of classical and novel isoforms of PKC, phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA; 100 nM), inhibited CAT-1-mediated l-arginine transport in PAEC after a 1-h treatment and activated l-arginine uptake after an 18-h treatment of cells. These changes in l-arginine transport were not related to the changes in the expression of the CAT-1 transporter. The inhibitory effect of PMA on l-arginine transport was accompanied by a translocation of PKCalpha (a classical PKC isoform) from the cytosol to the membrane fraction, whereas the activating effect of PMA on l-arginine transport was accompanied by full depletion of the expression of PKCalpha in PAEC. A selective activator of Ca(2+)-dependent classical isoforms of PKC, thymeleatoxin (Thy; 100 nM; 1-h and 18-h treatments), induced the same changes in l-arginine uptake and PKCalpha translocation and depletion as PMA. The effects of PMA and Thy on l-arginine transport in PAEC were attenuated by a selective inhibitor of classical PKC isoforms Go 6976 (1 micro M). Phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate-dipalmitoyl (PIP; 5 micro M), which activates novel PKC isoforms, did not affect l-arginine transport in PAEC after 1-h and 18-h treatment of cells. PIP (5 micro M; 1 h) induced the translocation of PKCepsilon (a novel PKC isoform) from the cytosolic to the particulate fraction and did not affect the translocation of PKCalpha. These results demonstrate that classical isoforms of PKC are involved in the regulation of CAT-1 transport activity in PAEC. We suggest that translocation of PKCalpha to the plasma membrane induces phosphorylation of the CAT-1 transporter, which leads to inhibition of its transport activity in PAEC. In contrast, depletion of PKCalpha after long-term treatment with PMA or Thy promotes dephosphorylation of the CAT-1 transporter and activation of its activity. 相似文献

Protein kinase C induces phosphorylation and desensitization of the human 5-HT1A receptor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of short-term phorbol ester treatment of CHO cells that stably express 900 fmol of recombinant human serotonin 5-HT1A receptor/mg of protein on coupling to the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and on phosphorylation of the receptor were studied. Pretreatment of cell monolayers with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) caused a dose- and time-dependent shift of the half-maximal dose of serotonin (5-HT) required to inhibit membrane adenylyl cyclase (from IC50 approximately 100 nM to approximately 400 nM). This desensitization (shift in IC50) was rapid, occurring with 5 min of pretreatment and being maximal by 10-15 min; it was also dose-dependent, being half-maximal at approximately 300 nM PMA. Desensitization was also induced by sn-dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8) and blocked by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors sphingosine and 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7). In detached permeabilized cells, PMA pretreatment caused a rapid phosphorylation of immunoprecipitated 5-HT1A receptors, with an approximately 3-4-fold increase that was maximal after 15 min and persisted for 90 min. The phosphorylation occurred at a similar dose of PMA as that which induced desensitization (half-maximal at approximately 300 nM, maximal at 500 nM to 1 microM), could be reproduced by pretreatment with the PKC activators DiC8 or phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), and could be blocked by the PKC inhibitors sphingosine or H-7. The stoichiometry of the phosphorylation was approximately 2 mol of [32P]ATP/mol of receptor, suggesting the involvement at least two of three putative PKC sites within the 5-HT1A receptor. The close concordance between the PKC-induced desensitization and phosphorylation suggests a potential causative link between these two effects of PKC on the human 5-HT1A receptor. 相似文献

In gastric chief cells, agents that activate protein kinase C (PKC) stimulate pepsinogen secretion and phosphorylation of an acidic 72-kDa protein. The isoelectric point and molecular mass of this protein are similar to those for a common PKC substrate; the MARCKS (for Myristoylated Alanine-Rich C Kinase Substrate) protein. We examined expression and phosphorylation of the MARCKS-like protein in a nearly homogeneous suspension of chief cells from guinea pig stomach. Western blotting of fractions from chief cell lysates with a specific MARCKS antibody resulted in staining of a myristoylated 72-kDa protein (pp72), associated predominantly with the membrane fraction. Using permeabilized chief cells. we examined the effect of PKC activation (with the phorbol ester PMA), in the presence of basal (100 nM) or elevated cellular calcium (1 μM), on pepsinogen secretion and phosphorylation of the 72-kDa MARCKS-like protein. Secretion was increased 2.3-, 2.6-, and 4.5-fold by incubation with 100 nM PMA, 1 μM calcium, and PMA plus calcium, respectively. A PKC inhibitor (1 μM CGP 41 251) abolished PMA-induced secretion, but did not alter calcium-induced secretion. This indicates that calcium-induced secretion is independent of PKC activation. Chief cell proteins were labeled with 32P-orthophosphate and phosphorylation of pp72 was detected by autoradiography of 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gels. In the presence of basal calcium PMA (100 nM) caused a > two-fold increase in phosphorylation of pp72. Without PMA, calcium did not alter phosphorylation of pp72. However, 1 μM calcium caused an approx. 50% attenuation of PMA-induced phosphorylation of pp72. Experiments with a MARCKS “phosphorylation/calmodulin binding domain peptide” indicated that calcium/calmodulin inhibits phosphorylation of pp72 by binding to the phosphorylation/calmodulin binding domain and not by inhibiting PKC activity. These observations support the hypothesis that, in gastric chief cells, interplay between calcium/calmodulin binding and phosphorylation of a common domain on the 72-kDa MARCKS-like protein plays a role in modulating pepsinogen secretion.

Phorbol ester–induced reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton was investigated in C6 rat glioma cells. Observations by fluorescence microscopy and photoelectron microscopy indicated that pretreatment with the transition metal chelator N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine (TPEN) for 1–2 h at 50 μM reduced the sensitivity of the actin cytoskeleton to disruption by the subsequent addition of 200 nM phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). The protective effect of TPEN was eliminated by adding back Zn2+ prior to PMA addition, implicating chelation of metal ions as the mechanism of action of TPEN. C6 cells exposed to PMA experience potent activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and substantial redistribution of the kinase from a soluble to a particulate cellular fraction (translocation). TPEN pretreatment did not block PKC translocation in PMA-exposed cells. By two-dimensional gel analysis, TPEN also did not reduce, but rather slightly increased, the PMA-stimulated phosphorylation of the acidic 80 kDa endogenous PKC substrate, as well as two other proteins at 18 kDa and 50 kDa. In contrast, TPEN significantly suppressed phosphorylation of a 20 kDa protein, both in cells treated with TPEN only and in TPEN-pretreated PMA-exposed cells. The results indicate that the ability of TPEN to protect against PKC-mediated actin cytoskeletal disruption is not due to either a block of PKC translocation or to general inhibition of PKC activity. Rather, the action of TPEN is more selective and probably involves chelation of Zn2+ at a critical Zn2+ -dependent phosphorylation step downstream from the initial tumor promoter–-induced effects on PKC. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

PKC-epsilon regulates basolateral endocytosis in human T84 intestinal epithelia: role of F-actin and MARCKS 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Protein kinase C (PKC) and the actin cytoskeleton are criticaleffectors of membrane trafficking in mammalian cells. In polarized epithelia, the role of these factors in endocytic events at either theapical or basolateral membrane is poorly defined. In the present study,phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and other activators of PKCselectively enhanced basolateral but not apical fluid-phase endocytosisin human T84 intestinal epithelia. Stimulation of basolateralendocytosis was blocked by the conventional and novel PKC inhibitorGö-6850, but not the conventional PKC inhibitor Gö-6976,and correlated with translocation of the novel PKC isoform PKC-. PMAtreatment induced remodeling of basolateral F-actin. The actindisassembler cytochalasin D stimulated basolateral endocytosis andenhanced stimulation of endocytosis by PMA, whereas PMA-stimulated endocytosis was blocked by the F-actin stabilizers phalloidin andjasplakinolide. PMA induced membrane-to-cytosol redistribution of theF-actin cross-linking protein myristoylated alanine-rich C kinasesubstrate (MARCKS). Cytochalasin D also induced MARCKS translocationand enhanced PMA-stimulated translocation of MARCKS. A myristoylatedpeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site domain of MARCKSinhibited both MARCKS translocation and PMA stimulation of endocytosis.MARCKS translocation was inhibited by Gö-6850 but notGö-6976. The results suggest that a novel PKC isoform, likelyPKC-, stimulates basolateral endocytosis in model epithelia by amechanism that involves F-actin and MARCKS. 相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes have been shown to play a role in mechanotransduction in a variety of cell types. We sought to identify the PKC isozymes involved in transducing mechanical (cyclic vs. static), direction and intensity of stretch by examining changes in protein expression and phosphorylation. We used a 3-dimensional culture system with aligned neonatal rat cardiac myocytes on silastic membranes. Myocytes were subjected to either cyclic stretch at 5 cycles/min or static stretch for a period of 24 h at intensities of 0%, 2.5%, 5%, or 10% of full membrane length. Stretch was applied in perpendicular or parallel directions to myocyte alignment. PKC delta was most sensitive to stretch applied perpendicular to myocyte alignment regardless of the nature of stretch, while phospho PKC delta T505 increased in response to static-perpendicular stretch. PKC epsilon expression was altered by cyclic stretch but not static stretch, while phospho PKC epsilon S719 remained unchanged. PKC alpha expression was not altered by stretch; however, phospho PKC alpha S657 increased in a dose-dependent manner following cyclic-perpendicular stretch. Our results indicate that changes in PKC expression and phosphorylation state may be a mechanism for cardiac myocytes to discriminate between the nature, direction, and intensity of mechanical stretch. 相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) delta is regulated allosterically by phosphatidylserine and diacylglycerol (which promote its translocation to the membrane) and by phosphorylation of Ser/Thr and Tyr residues. Although phosphorylation on Thr-505/Ser-643/Ser-662 may simply "prime" PKCdelta for activation, it could be regulatory. We examined the regulation of PKCdelta in cardiac myocytes by endothelin-1 (Gq protein-coupled receptor agonist) and platelet-derived growth factor (receptor tyrosine kinase agonist) in comparison with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). All increased phosphorylation of PKCdelta(Thr-505/Ser-643) and of Tyr residues, although to differing extents. De novo phosphorylation occurred mainly after translocation of PKCdelta to the particulate fraction, and phosphorylations of Thr-505/Ser-643 versus Tyr residues were essentially independent events. Following chromatographic separation of the PKCdelta subspecies, activities were correlated with immunoreactivity profiles of total and phosphorylated forms. In unstimulated cells, approximately 25% of PKCdelta lacked phosphorylation of Thr-505/Ser-643 and displayed minimal activity (assayed in the presence of phosphatidylserine/PMA following chromatography). Endothelin-1 or PMA (10 min) promoted Thr-505/Ser-643 phosphorylation of this pool, and this was associated with an increase in total recoverable PKCdelta activity. Meanwhile, in cells exposed to endothelin-1 or PMA, the overall pool of PKCdelta translocated rapidly (30 s) to the particulate fraction and was phosphorylated on Tyr residues. This was associated with an increase in lipid-independent activity (i.e. the phosphatidylserine/PMA requirement disappeared). For endothelin-1, Tyr phosphorylation of PKCdelta and the increase in phosphatidylserine/PMA-independent activity persisted after PKCdelta retrotranslocated to the soluble fraction. We concluded that, with this physiological agonist, PKCdelta becomes activated in the particulate fraction but retains activity following its retrotranslocation, presumably to phosphorylate substrates elsewhere. 相似文献

We have used S49 mouse lymphoma cells to study phorbol ester effects on growth. Treatment of wild-type (wt) cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) results in growth arrest within 72 hr. We have selected variants that are resistant to PMA-induced growth arrest, based on a selection in the presence of 10 nM PMA. We have characterized one of these variants, termed 21.1, in detail. The 21.1 and wt cells contain similar levels of protein kinase C (PKC) as determined by [3H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate ([3H]PDBu) binding. Treatment of both wt and 21.1 cells with PMA results in translocation of PKC to the membrane, suggesting that the coupling between PKC and an immediate biological response is intact. PMA treatment leads to the phosphorylation of many similar proteins in wild-type and 21.1 cells. However, in the 21.1 cells there is a prominent substrate of approximately 70 kilodaltons (kD) which is no longer phosphorylated after PMA treatment. In wild-type cells ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and mRNA levels are decreased within 1 hr of PMA treatment. Likewise, ODC levels are decreased in the 21.1 cells after exposure to PMA even though PMA only slightly modulates the growth of these cells. The 21.1 cells represent a unique line with a dominant phenotype in which ODC expression is uncoupled from the growth state of the cell. These cells may represent a good model system in which to examine the steps involved in phorbol ester growth regulation in S49 cells. 相似文献

Identification of protein kinase D as a novel contraction-activated kinase linked to GLUT4-mediated glucose uptake, independent of AMPK 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Contraction-induced glucose uptake is only partly mediated by AMPK activation. We examined whether the diacylglycerol-sensitive protein kinase D (PKD; also known as novel PKC isoform mu) is also involved in the regulation of glucose uptake in the contracting heart. As an experimental model, we used suspensions of cardiac myocytes, which were electrically stimulated to contract or treated with the contraction-mimicking agent oligomycin. Induction of contraction at 4 Hz in cardiac myocytes or treatment with 1 microM oligomycin enhanced (i) autophosphorylation of PKD at Ser916 by 5.1- and 3.8-fold, respectively, (ii) phosphorylation of PKD's downstream target cardiac-troponin-I (cTnI) by 2.9- and 2.1-fold, respectively, and (iii) enzymatic activity of immunoprecipitated PKD towards the substrate peptide syntide-2 each by 1.5-fold. Although AMPK was also activated under these same conditions, in vitro phosphorylation assays and studies with cardiac myocytes from AMPKalpha2(-/-) mice indicated that activation of PKD occurs independent of AMPK activation. CaMKKbeta, and the cardiac-specific PKC isoforms alpha, delta, and epsilon were excluded as upstream kinases for PKD in contraction signaling because none of these kinases were activated by oligomycin. Stimulation of glucose uptake and induction of GLUT4 translocation in cardiac myocytes by contraction and oligomycin each were sensitive to inhibition by the PKC/PKD inhibitors staurosporin and calphostin-C. Together, these data elude to a role of PKD in contraction-induced GLUT4 translocation. Finally, the combined actions of PKD on cTnI phosphorylation and on GLUT4 translocation would efficiently link accelerated contraction mechanics to increased energy production when the heart is forced to increase its contractile activity. 相似文献

We have shown before that Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase acts as a signal transducer, through protein-protein interactions, in addition to being an ion pump. Interaction of ouabain with the enzyme of the intact cells causes activation of Src, transactivation of EGFR, and activation of the Ras/ERK1/2 cascade. To determine the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in this pathway, neonatal rat cardiac myocytes were exposed to ouabain and assayed for translocation/activation of PKC from cytosolic to particulate fractions. Ouabain caused rapid and sustained stimulation of this translocation, evidenced by the assay of Ca(2+)-dependent and Ca(2+)-independent PKC activities and by the immunoblot analysis of the alpha, delta, and epsilon isoforms of PKC. Dose-dependent stimulation of PKC translocation by ouabain (1-100 microm) was accompanied by no more than 50% inhibition of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and doubling of [Ca(2+)](i), changes that do not affect myocyte viability and are known to be associated with positive inotropic, but not toxic, effects of ouabain in rat cardiac ventricles. Ouabain-induced activation of ERK1/2 was blocked by PKC inhibitors calphostin C and chelerythrine. An inhibitor of phosphoinositide turnover in myocytes also antagonized ouabain-induced PKC translocation and ERK1/2 activation. These and previous findings indicate that ouabain-induced activation of PKC and Ras, each linked to Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase through Src/EGFR, are both required for the activation of ERK1/2. Ouabain-induced PKC translocation and ERK1/2 activation were dependent on the presence of Ca(2+) in the medium, suggesting that the signal-transducing and ion-pumping functions of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase cooperate in activation of these protein kinases and the resulting regulation of contractility and growth of the cardiac myocyte. 相似文献

Smooth muscle cell (SMC) hyperplasia is an important component of vascular remodeling in chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. The mechanisms underlying SMC proliferation in the remodeling process are poorly understood, but may involve insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). This study investigates the potential proliferative effects of IGF-I on SMC cultured from the pulmonary arteries (PA) of neonatal calves. We hypothesized that IGF-I stimulates PA SMC proliferation through a protein kinase C (PKC)-independent pathway, but that PKC activation would augment this proliferative response. Incorporation of 3H-thymidine was used as an index of cellular proliferation, and was correlated with subsequent changes in cell counts. Under serum-free conditions, IGF-I (100 ng/ml) induced a 6-fold increase in thymidine incorporation by quiescent PA SMC. This stimulation was not blocked by dihydrosphingosine, an inhibitor of PKC activation. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) (1 nM), a membrane-permeable PKC activator, induced a 12-fold increase in thymidine incorporation which was 70% inhibited by dihydrosphingosine. Co-incubation with IGF-I and PMA caused a 60-fold increase in thymidine incorporation, which was 30% inhibited by dihydrosphingosine. This synergistic increase in thymidine incorporation was associated with a subsequent significant increase in cell number. PKC-downregulated cells (1,000 nM PMA x 30 hr) proliferated in response to IGF-I but not PMA, and did not demonstrate synergism with the combination of IGF-I and PMA. The threshold concentrations of IGF-I and PMA for synergism were approximately 1 ng/ml and 1 pM, respectively. We conclude that IGF-I stimulates neonatal PA SMC proliferation via a PKC-independent pathway, and that trace amounts of PKC activators are capable of synergistically augmenting this response. We speculate that the synergistic stimulation of SMC proliferation by IGF-I and PKC activators may play an important role in hypertensive pulmonary vascular remodeling. 相似文献
