Murine neuroblastoma clone N1E-115, which possesses receptors for neurotensin mediating the formation of intracellular cyclic GMP and the stimulation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, exhibited only partial desensitization to neurotensin. This result led to the observation that neurotensin was very rapidly degraded by intact N1E-115 cells. In experiments measuring the time course of [3 H]neurotensin degradation, a minimum of six major tritiated products were found, with the breakdown peptides formed and the degree of proteolysis of [3 H]neurotensin being dependent upon the length of incubation and the concentration of cells. Clone N1E-115 degraded [3 H]neurotensin in an apparently sequential fashion; the primary initial cleavage of intact neurotensin was at the peptide bond between residues Arg8 and Arg9 . Initial degradation peptides from the active carboxyl-terminal portion of neurotensin were more rapidly degraded, after formation, than were the peptides from the inactive amino-terminal half of neurotensin. The final two degradation products found were tyrosine, from the carboxyl-terminal portion of neurotensin, and an as yet unidentified peptide from the amino-terminal half of neurotensin. [3 H]Neurotensin(8–13) was more rapidly hydrolyzed under identical conditions than was [3 H]neurotensin itself. A combination of the protease inhibitors 1, 10-phenanthroline and Z-Pro-Prolinal was able to inhibit almost completely the degradation of neurotensin by clone N1E-115. 相似文献

Abstract: We investigated for the first time the effect of lipopolysaccharide and the signal transduction pathway on the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin [(6 R - l - erythro -1',2'-dihydroxypropyl)-2-amino-4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteridine], the cofactor for the enzymatic hydroxylation of the aromatic amino acids, in the murine neuroblastoma cell line N1E-115, which synthesizes tetrahydrobiopterin constitutively. Activation of N1E-115 cells with 1 µg/ml lipopolysaccharide resulted in statistically significant increases in both intracellular tetrahydrobiopterin contents and the activity ( V max ) of GTP cyclohydrolase I, a rate-limiting enzyme in tetrahydrobiopterin de novo biosynthesis. Following simultaneous addition of the inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases and GTP-binding proteins into serum-free culture media with lipopolysaccharide, we analyzed the transduction pathway of lipopolysaccharide signal toward the tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthetic system in N1E-115 cells. Our data indicate the following conclusions: (a) Protein tyrosine kinase systems are involved in mediating lipopolysaccharide signal to tetrahydrobiopterin production, and (b) there may be a cross-talk between GTP-binding protein and the protein tyrosine kinase system in mediating lipopolysaccharide signal. These observations suggest that a neuronal cell such as N1E-115, which barely expresses CD14 on its cell surface, responds to lipopolysaccharide like macrophages and monocytes in the absence of soluble CD14. 相似文献

Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-mediated transmembrane signal control systems were investigated in intact murine neuroblastoma cells (clone N1E-115). PGE1 increased intracellular levels of total inositol phosphates (IP), cyclic GMP, cyclic AMP, and calcium ([Ca2+]i). PGE1 transiently increased inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation, peaking at 20 s. There was more than a 10-fold difference between the ED50 for PGE1 at cyclic AMP formation (70 nM) and its ED50 values at IP accumulation (1 microM), cyclic GMP formation (2 microM), and [Ca2+]i increase (5 microM). PGE1-mediated IP accumulation, cyclic GMP formation, and [Ca2+]i increase depended on both the concentration of PGE1 and extracellular calcium ions. PGE1 had more potent intrinsic activity in cyclic AMP formation, IP accumulation, and cyclic GMP formation than did PGE2, PGF2 alpha, or PGD2. A protein kinase C activator, 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate, had opposite effects on PGE1-mediated IP release and cyclic GMP formation (inhibitory) and cyclic AMP formation (stimulatory). These data suggest that there may be subtypes of the PGE1 receptor in this clone: a high-affinity receptor mediating cyclic AMP formation, and a low-affinity receptor mediating IP accumulation, cyclic GMP formation, and intracellular calcium mobilization. 相似文献

Tetrahydrobiopterin content was determined in several clonal cell lines by reversed-phase HPLC and subsequent electrochemical detection. The same chromatography system was used to determine the total biopterin (tetrahydrobiopterin and 7,8-dihydrobiopterin) by fluorescence detection. The catecholamine-producing clones neuroblastoma N1E-115 and pheochromocytoma PC-12 contained 96 and 60 ng tetrahydrobiopterin/mg protein, respectively. The corresponding amount for the neuroblastoma clone N2A was 36 ng/mg protein. The tetrahydrobiopterin content in C-6 glioma cells was below the limit of detection. The total biopterin is about 20% above the tetrahydrobiopterin content. Tetrahydrobiopterin and biopterin from the cells were identified by coelution with standard solutions and by potential-current relationship or emission and excitation spectra, respectively. Addition of 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine, an inhibitor of biopterin synthesis from GTP, to the culture medium of PC-12 cells resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of tetrahydrobiopterin and total biopterin content within 4 h, suggesting that the cells are capable of synthesising the biopterin which was found. A decrease in intracellular tetrahydrobiopterin levels by different concentrations of 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine reduces the cellular production of dihydroxyphenylalanine after inhibition of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase, indicating that the concentration of tetrahydrobiopterin might be a limiting factor for catecholamine synthesis in catecholamine-producing cells. 相似文献

When [3H]inositol-prelabelled N1E-115 cells were stimulated with carbamylcholine (CCh) (100 microM), high K+ (60 mM), and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) (10 microM), a transient increase in [3H]inositol pentakisphosphate (InsP5) accumulation was observed. The accumulation reached its maximum level at 15 s and had declined to the basal level at 2 min. CCh, high K+, and PGE1 also caused accumulations of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], [3H]inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,6)P4], and [3H]inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6). Muscarine and CCh induced accumulations of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3, [3H]-Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, [3H]InsP5, and [3H]InsP6 with a similar potency and exerted these maximal effects at 100 microM, whereas nicotine failed to do so at 1 mM. With a slower time course, CCh, high K+, and PGE1 caused accumulations of [3H]-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4]. In an N1E-115 cell homogenate, [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3, [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 were converted to [3H]InsP5 through [3H]-Ins(1,3,4,6)P4. The above results indicate that Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, InsP5, and InsP6 are rapidly formed by several kinds of stimulants in N1E-115 cells. 相似文献

With the aid of a voltage-sensitive oxonol dye, flow cytometry was used to measure relative changes in resting membrane potential
(Vm) and forward angle light scatter (FALS) profiles of a differentiating/differentiated murine neuroblastoma cell line (N1E-115).
Electrophysiological differentiation was characterized by Vm establishment. The (Vm)-time profile was found to be seed cell concentration-dependent for cell densities of less than 2 × 104 cells/cm2. At higher initial cell densities, under differentiating culture conditions, Vm development commenced on day 2 and reached a steady-state on day 12. The relative distribution of differentiated cells between
low and high FALS has been proposed as a potential culture electrophysiological differentiation state index. These experiments
offer a general methodology to characterize cultured excitable cells of nervous system origin, with respect to electrophysiological
differentiation. This information is valuable in studies employing neuroblastoma cells as in vitro screening models for safety/hazard evaluation and/or risk assessment of therapeutical and industrial chemicals under development.

The association of neurotensin to its receptor in differentiated neuroblastoma N1E115 cells led to a fast and transitory increase of the intracellular concentration in inositol triphosphate and inositol biphosphate, followed by a slower and more stable increase inositol monophosphate. The action of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate on digitonin-permeabilized N1E115 cells resulted in a stimulation of cyclic GMP levels that mimicked that induced by neurotensin. Therefore, the cyclic GMP stimulation is probably a consequence of the initial inositol triphosphate formation triggered by neurotensin. Fluoroaluminate ions and pertussis toxin had the capacity to modulate positively and negatively, respectively, the formation of inositol triphosphate induced by neurotensin, indicating that GTP-binding proteins are involved in the regulation of inositol phosphate levels by neurotensin receptors. 相似文献

Down-Regulation of Angiotensin II Receptor Subtypes and Desensitization of Cyclic GMP Production in Neuroblastoma N1E-115 Cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Abstract: Murine neuroblastoma N1E-115 cells possess membranous receptors for the octapeptide angiotensin II (AngII) whose density is substantially increased by in vitro differentiation. Incubation of differentiated N1E-115 cells with AngII produced a rapid decrease in receptor density, but did not alter the affinity of these receptors for either 125I-AngII or the high-affinity antagonist 125I-[Sarc1,Ile8]-AngII. This apparent down-regulation was dose related with an ED50 of 1 nM, and maximal decreases of ~90% were obtained with 100 nM AngII. Receptor loss from differentiated cell membranes was unaffected by incubations of membranes obtained from agonist-exposed cells with non-hydrolyzable analogues of GTP for 60 min at 37°C to ensure dissociation of the ligand. Partial loss of AngII receptors was apparent within 5 min of agonist exposure, whereas maximal declines were not observed until 30 min. This temporal pattern resulted from a preferential decrease in the AT1 receptor subtype during the first 5 min, followed by a decline in both AT1 and AT2 receptors with longer periods of agonist exposure. The loss of membranous receptors was reversible with partial recovery observed after 4 h, and with nearly full recovery observed 18 h after exposure of the cells to AngII. However, the long-term recovery of receptor density was blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide. The heptapeptide angiotensin III produced a similar down-regulation of receptors, and the high-affinity antagonist [Sarc1, Thr8]-AngII blocked agonist-induced down-regulation. Finally, the apparent loss of cell surface Angll receptors decreased the ability of AngII to stimulate cyclic GMP production within intact N1E-115 cells. These results suggest that differentiated N1E-115 cells are an excellent cell line in which to examine the factors regulating the expression of AngII receptor subtypes in the nervous system. 相似文献

Abstract: The murine neuroblastoma N1E-115 cell line possesses a high density of angiotensin II (Angll) receptors that can be solubilized with the zwitterionic detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate. These solubilized binding sites exhibited high affinity for CGP-42112A and not Losartan, indicating that they were of the AT2 subtype. However, displacement of 125I-Angll with the AT2 nonpeptide antagonist PD-123319 resulted in a biphasic curve, suggesting heterogeneity of the AT2 receptor population in N1E-115 cells. In support of this view, separation of two receptor populations was accomplished with heparin-Sepharose chromatography. More specifically, three distinct protein peaks eluted from the heparin-Sepharose column, two of which bound 125I-Angll with high affinity and saturability. One of these binding peaks (peak I) eluted rapidly and represented ~80% of the total binding activity, whereas the remaining binding activity was contained within a second peak (peak III) that required the addition of 1.5 M NaCI for its complete elution. Pharmacological analysis revealed that both peaks of binding activity were exclusively AT2 receptors insofar as they exhibited high affinity for CGP-42112A and little or no affinity for the AT1-selective antagonist Losartan. However, whereas the nonpeptidic AT2-selective antagonist PD-123319 completely displaced the binding of 126I-Angll from peak I in a monophasic fashion (IC50= 9.1 ± 4.1 nM; mean ± SEM; n = 3), PD-123319 was much less effective in displacing 125I-Angll from peak III (IC50= 196 β 27 nM; mean β SEM; n = 3). Treatment of individual peaks with the reducing agent dithiothreitol caused a large increase in 125I-Angll specific binding in peak III, whereas a decrease in binding was observed in peak I. Moreover, GTPγS significantly reduced high-affinity agonist binding in peak I but not peak III, further suggesting heterogeneity in the AT2 receptor family. Finally, immunoblotting studies with polyclonal antisera raised against peak I specifically detected two proteins of 110 and 66 kDa, as is true in crude solubilized membranes, whereas no immunospecific proteins were detected in peak III. These same antisera immunoprecipitated 125I-Angll binding activity in peak I but were ineffective in peak III. Collectively, these results suggest that heparin-Sepharose chromatography can efficiently separate two pharmacologically, biochemically and immunologically distinct populations of AT2 receptors. 相似文献

Abstract: In this study, the effects of three related peptides, pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide 38 (PACAP38), PACAP27, and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), on cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+ ]i ) were compared in N1E-115 cells. PACAP38 and PACAP27 stimulated cAMP accumulation up to 60-fold with EC50 values of 0.54 and 0.067 n M , respectively. The effect of VIP on cAMP accumulation was less potent. The binding of 125 I-PACAP27 to intact cells was inhibited by PACAP38 and PACAP27 (IC50 values of 0.44 and 0.55 n M , respectively) but not by VIP. In fura-2-loaded cells, both PACAP38 and PACAP27 increased [Ca2+ ]i with EC50 values around 10 n M . The interactions of these three peptides with ionomycin, a Ca2+ ionophore, and 4β-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C, were also determined. Ionomycin increased the cAMP accumulation caused by all three peptides. With low concentrations of PACAP38 or PACAP27, the effect of PMA was inhibitory, whereas at higher concentrations of PACAP (>1 n M ), the effect of PMA was stimulatory. Similar to other agents that elevate cAMP, PACAP38 was an effective stimulator of neurite outgrowth. These results show that (a) PACAP27 and PACAP38 stimulate cAMP accumulation and increase [Ca2+ ]i through the type I PACAP receptors in N1E-115 cells, (b) ionomycin enhances cAMP accumulation by all three peptides, and (c) activation of protein kinase C has a dose-dependent stimulatory or inhibitory effect on the PACAP38- or PACAP27-stimulated cAMP accumulation. 相似文献

Angiotensin II (AngII) elicited a rapid and dose-related production of intracellular cyclic GMP (cGMP) in murine neuroblastoma N1E-115 cells. The agonist-induced rise in cGMP levels was blocked in a monophasic fashion by the AT1-selective antagonist DuP 753 or the nonselective antagonist [Sarc1,Ile8]-AngII, and both antagonists produced complete inhibition of the cGMP response elicited by submaximal concentrations of AngII. In contrast, the AT2-selective antagonist CGP 42112A inhibited the cGMP response biphasically. At lower antagonist concentrations, agonist-induced cGMP production was only partially inhibited, whereas complete inhibition was observed only when the concentration of CGP 42112A was increased sufficiently to interact with both AT1 and AT2 receptor subtypes. AngII also increased inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) levels in N1E-115 cells. However, the InsP3 response was mediated exclusively by the AT1 receptor subtype because it was inhibited by lower, AT1-selective concentrations of DuP 753, whereas only higher, nonselective concentrations of CGP 42112A were effective. Finally, the stimulatory effects of AngII on cGMP production appeared to be mediated by the intracellular formation of nitric oxide in that they were attenuated by the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, N-monomethyl-L-arginine. Collectively, these results suggest that the AngII-elicited rise in cGMP levels may require an interaction between AT1-mediated mobilization of intracellular Ca2+, as well as some partial role of AT2 receptors. 相似文献

The antagonistic effects of gallamine on muscarinic receptor-linked responses were investigated in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells. M1 muscarinic receptor-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis induced by carbamylcholine was antagonized by gallamine, with a Ki value of 33 microM. By comparison, gallamine was four- to fivefold less potent in blocking noncardiac M2 muscarinic receptor-mediated inhibition of cyclic AMP formation, with a Ki value of 144 microM. The resulting Arunlakshana-Schild plots of the antagonism of both responses by gallamine were linear and exhibited slopes not differing from 1, a result indicative of a competitive mechanism. To elucidate further the nature of gallamine's inhibitory actions, experiments were performed where the effects of gallamine in combination with the known competitive muscarinic antagonist, N-methylscopolamine (NMS), were studied. In the presence of both antagonists, a supraadditive shift in the carbamylcholine dose-response curve was demonstrated for the two responses, a result suggestive of an allosteric mode of interaction between gallamine and NMS binding sites. Confirmation that gallamine allosterically modifies the muscarinic receptor was provided by radioligand binding studies. Gallamine competition curves with either [N-methyl-3H]scopolamine methyl chloride ([3H]NMS) or [N-methyl-3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate methyl chloride ([3H]NMeQNB) were unusually shallow. Furthermore, gallamine decelerated the rate of dissociation of receptor-bound [3H]NMS greater than [3H]NMeQNB in a dose-dependent manner. The present study demonstrates that whereas gallamine antagonizes carbamylcholine-mediated responses in N1E-115 cells in a competitive manner, an allosteric component of its action is revealed in the presence of muscarinic antagonists such as NMS. 相似文献

No systematic searches for differential expression of signaling proteins (SP) in undifferentiated vs. differentiated cell lineages were published and herein we used protein profiling for this purpose. The N1E-115 cell line was cultivated and an aliquot was differentiated with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), that is known to lead to a neuronal phenotype. Cell lysates were prepared, run on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by MALDI-TOF-TOF identification of proteins and maps of identified SPs were generated. Seven SPs were comparable, 27 SPs: GTP-binding/Ras-related proteins, kinases, growth factors, calcium binding proteins, phosphatase-related proteins were observed in differentiated N1E-115 cells and eight SPs of the groups mentioned above were observed in undifferentiated cells only. Switching-on/off of several individual SPs from different signaling cascades during the differentiation process is a key to understand mechanisms involved. The findings reported herein are challenging in vitro and in vivo studies to confirm a functional role for deranged SPs. 相似文献

Signaling by muscarinic agonists is thought to result from the activation of cell surface acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) that transmit extracellular signals to intracellular systems. In N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells, we detected both plasma membrane and intracellular M(1) -mAChRs using both biochemical and pharmacological methods. In intact cells, both plasma membrane and intracellular M(1) -mAChRs were detected by the hydrophobic ligand probe, 1-quinuclidinyl-[phenyl-4-(3) H]-benzilate ([(3) H]-QNB) whereas the hydrophilic probe, 1-[N-methyl-(3) H] scopolamine ([(3) H]-NMS), detected only cell surface receptors. These probes detected comparable numbers of receptors in isolated membrane preparations. Immunohistochemical studies with M(1) -mAChR antibody also detected both cell-surface and intracellular M(1) -mAChRs. Carbachol-stimulated phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis and Ca(2+) mobilization were completely inhibited by a cell-impermeable M(1) antagonist, muscarinic toxin -7 and the G(q/11) inhibitor YM-254890. However, carbachol-stimulated extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 activation was unaffected by muscarinic toxin-7, but was blocked by the cell-permeable antagonist, pirenzepine. extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation was resistant to blockade of G(q/11) (YM-254890) and protein kinase C (bisindolylmaleimide I). Our data suggest that the geographically distinct M(1) -mAChRs (cell surface versus intracellular) can signal via unique signaling pathways that are differentially sensitive to cell-impermeable versus cell-permeable antagonists. Our data are of potential physiological relevance to signaling that affects both cognitive and neurodegenerative processes. 相似文献

Summary Mouse neuroblastoma cells (Clone N1E-115) were grown in serum-free (defined) medium, defined medium supplemented with serum,
and control medium to determine whether serum-free medium could substitute for serum-containing medium in our studies of the
histamine H1 and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors of these cells. The function of these receptors as determined by measurement of receptor-mediated
cyclic [3H]GMP formation was absent in cells grown in serum-free medium and increased as the percentage of serum was increased in the
defined medium, but never attained the levels found with control cells. Muscarinic receptor number for cells grown in defined
medium was 60% above that found for control cells with no change in the affinity of the receptor for the radioligand (−)[3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate. Guanylate cyclase and acetylcholinesterase activities for cells grown in defined medium were 23
and 66% of those found in control cells, respectively. This marked reduction of guanylate cyclase activity in large part explains
the lack of function of these receptors.

High-Affinity Neurotensin Binding Sites in Differentiated Neuroblastoma N1E115 Cells 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

This paper describes the interaction of neurotensin with mouse neuroblastoma N1E115 cells. Neurotensin binding sites are undetectable in nondifferentiated neuroblastoma cells. They appear during cell differentiation in the presence of a low serum concentration and dimethyl sulfoxide, and reach a maximal level after 50-60 h of incubation under these conditions. The binding of monoiodo[Trp11]neurotensin to homogenates of differentiated N1E115 cells is specific, saturable, and reversible. The interaction is characterized by a dissociation constant of 150 pM and a maximal binding capacity of 9 fmol/mg of protein at 0 degrees C, pH 7.5. These binding parameters, as well as the specificity toward a series of neurotensin analogues, are similar for neurotensin receptors in N1E115 cells and for the high-affinity binding sites that had been previously characterized in rat brain synaptic membranes by means of the same radiolabeled ligand. The presence of high-affinity binding sites for neurotensin in the neuroblastoma N1E115 provides a useful model to study the cellular responses that are generated by the association of neurotensin to its receptor in electrically excitable cells. 相似文献

Neurotensin Stimulates Inositol Phospholipid Metabolism and Calcium Mobilization in Murine Neuroblastoma Clone N1E-115 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2
Murine neuroblastoma cells (clone N1E-115) possess neurotensin receptors that mediate cyclic GMP synthesis. Because of the hypothesized relationship between phospholipid metabolism, intracellular Ca2+, and cyclic GMP synthesis, we determined with these cells the effects of neurotensin on 32P labeling of phospholipids, release of inositol phosphates, and intracellular Ca2+ (as determined with the use of Quin-2, a fluorescent probe sensitive to free Ca2+ levels). Neurotensin stimulated incorporation of 32P into phospholipids, especially phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidate. Neurotensin also stimulated the release of [3H]inositol phosphates with an EC50 of about 1 nM. Mean basal Ca2+ concentration in these cells was 134 nM and this level was increased in a rapid and dose-dependent manner by neurotensin, with an EC50 of 4 nM. Since the EC50 for neurotensin in stimulating cyclic GMP synthesis is 1.5 nM and the KD for binding of [3H]neurotensin at 0 degrees C is 11 nM, all these different effects appear to be shared proximal consequences of neurotensin receptor activation. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids Potentiate the Prostaglandin E1 -Mediated Cyclic AMP Formation by a Cultured Murine Neuroblastoma Clone 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The effect of steroid hormones on the prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-mediated cyclic AMP formation by murine neuroblastoma clone N1E-115 was studied. Dexamethasone at submicromolar concentrations and corticosterone at micromolar concentrations (steroids with glucocorticoid activity) were able to modify the PGE1-mediated response whereas testosterone, progesterone, and estradiol each at 10 microM had no effect. Glucocorticoids added to the culture medium of N1E-115 cells produced an increase in the maximal response to PGE1 only after long-term (greater than or equal to 4 h) incubation with the hormone. Inhibitors of protein and RNA synthesis blocked this effect of glucocorticoids. Basal activity of adenylate cyclase in treated cells was twofold higher than that in control cells, and this enzyme seemed to be the primary target for the hormone action, since the activity of 3':5'-cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and the binding of [3H]PGE1 to its receptors were not altered by glucocorticoid treatment. Our results indicate that glucocorticoids modulate receptor-mediated responses in cells of neural origin through a mechanism that involves induction of protein synthesis. 相似文献

Abstract: The effects of arginine on calcium mobilization in human SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells were examined. It was found that arginine potentiated an increase in carbachol-induced Ca2+ from the external Ca2+ influx as opposed to an internal Ca2+ release from intracellular pools. The potentiation effect of arginine on carbachol-induced calcium mobilization was mimicked by either 8-bromo cyclic GMP or sodium nitroprusside. In addition, it was found that arginine induced NO production and an increase in cyclic GMP. Moreover, arginine-induced potentiation, NO production, and cyclic GMP increases were all suppressed after the preincubation of cells with N -methyl- l -arginine or N -nitro- l -arginine, nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. It is suggested that the NO production and subsequent cyclic GMP elevation induced by arginine are responsible for the potentiation of carbachol-induced Ca2+ increase. Our results show the existence of a NO/cyclic GMP pathway and an interconnection of NO and Ca2+ signaling pathways in human SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells. We also observed that NO, which is produced by endothelial CPAE cells, has a modulating effect on cyclic GMP elevation in human SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells. The intercellular communication role of NO and its cell-diffusing character may also affect the regulation of nonneuronal cells in their interactions with neuronal cells. 相似文献

Abstract: The murine neuroblastoma N1E-115 cell line possesses type 1 and type 2 angiotensin II (Angll) receptor subtypes. In vitro differentiation of these cells substantially increases the density of the AT2-receptor subtype, whereas the density of the AT1 receptors remains unchanged. In the present study, we report that the zwitterionic detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]- 1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) selectively solubilized AT2receptors from N1E-115 cell membranes and that these receptors could be purified further to near homogeneity by affinity chromatography. More specifically, the presence of an agonist (Angll) during affinity purification of AT2 receptors resulted in the elution of high (110-kDa) and low (66-kDa) molecular mass proteins as determined by gel electrophoresis under nonreducing conditions. In contrast, when the nonselective antagonist Sar1, lle8-Angll was used during purification, only the lower 66-kDa protein was observed. Affinity purification in the presence of the peptide and nonpeptide AT2-receptor antagonists CGP42112A and PD123319 also resulted in elution of the same 66-kDa protein, but unlike that in the presence of Sar1, lle8-Angll, some of the high molecular weight site was observed as well. On the other hand, Losartan, an AT1-receptor antagonist, was completely ineffective in eluting any Angll receptors from the affinity column, further confirming their AT2 identity. After agonist elution, the 110-kDa band dissociated into two low molecular mass bands of 66 kDa and 54 kDa when sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis was run under reducing conditions. The 110-kDa and 66-kDa proteins, but not smaller, affinity-purified proteins, specifically bound 125l-Angll as determined by covalent cross-linking of 125l-Angll to the receptors with the homobifunctional cross-linker disuccinimidyl suberate, or by size exclusion chromatography on a TSK 3000 SW column. Lastly, immunoblot analysis of affinity- purified material with antibodies selective for AT2 receptors revealed major immunoreactive proteins of 110 kDa and 66 kDa in the presence of an agonist, whereas the same 66-kDa protein, as well as a smaller (54-kDa) immunoreactive protein, was detected under reducing conditions. Collectively, these data suggest that CHAPS-solubilized AT2 receptors from N1E-115 cells may consist of a binding protein of approximately 66 kDa, which in the presence of an agonist readily associates with other smaller proteins to form larger multimeric complexes. 相似文献
