The effect of the specific potassium (K+) ionophore valinomycin on increase in intracellular calcium concentration [( Ca2+]i) was studied in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Valinomycin at more than 10(-9) M dose-dependently suppressed phasic increase in [Ca2+]i in VSMC induced by angiotensin II (AII) in both control and Ca2+-free solution, indicating that it suppressed the release of Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores. Nicorandil and cromakalim, which are both K+ channel openers, also suppressed the increases in [Ca2+]i induced by AII in the Ca2+ free solution. However, valinomycin did not suppress AII-induced production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which is known to mediate the release of Ca2+. These results indicate that decrease of intracellular K+ induced by valinomycin suppressed the release of Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores induced by IP3. 相似文献

To examine whether the subpopulation of the rat type 1 angiotensin II (AII) receptor (AT1A) couples with a single or multiple signal transduction pathways, we constructed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines producing the recombinant receptor. The expressed AT1A receptor exhibits typical pharmacological characteristics of the AT1 receptor, known to mediate the main physiological function of AII. Addition of AII to the CHO cells induced a rapid, transient increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) followed by a lower, sustained phase. Nicardipine, a blocker of voltage-dependent L-type Ca2+ channels, attenuated the transient [Ca2+]i response and abolished the sustained phase. The transient phase was also reduced dose-dependently by the phospholipase C inhibitor neomycin. Furthermore, AII inhibited forskolin-evoked cAMP accumulation. These data suggest, although another subpopulation named AT1B is present, that the rat AT1A receptor can independently couple with all three signal transduction pathways known to be induced by AII: i.e., i) activation of phospholipase C resulting in InsP3 generation with a subsequent release of intracellularly stored Ca2+, ii) activation of dihydropyridine-sensitive voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels, and iii) inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

We examined the effects of cyclic AMP (cAMP) on the intracellular Ca2+ release in both the intact and skinned arterial smooth muscle. The amount of Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was estimated indirectly by caffeine-induced contraction of the skinned preparation and directly by caffeine-stimulated 45Ca efflux from the previously labeled skinned preparation. The norepinephrine-induced release contraction was markedly enhanced by dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) and reduced by propranolol. The stimulatory effect of dbcAMP was best observed when the muscle was exposed to 10(-5) M dbcAMP and 2 X 10(-6) M norepinephrine was used to induce the release contraction. 10(-5) M cAMP had no effect on the Ca2+-induced contraction or on the pCa-tension relationship in the skinned preparation. This concentration of cAMP increased Ca2+ uptake into the SR of the skinned preparation when the Ca2+ in the SR was first depleted. 10(-5) M cAMP stimulated Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release from the SR after optimal Ca2+ accumulation by the SR. The results indicate that the stimulatory effect of cAMP on the norepinephrine-induced release contraction could be due to enhancement of the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release from the SR in arterial smooth muscle. 相似文献

The Ca2+ content of glial tumor (C6) cells was reduced approximately 5-fold by repeated treatment with media containing ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) without loss of cellular viability. The ability of the cells to accumulate cAMP in response to beta-adrenergic agonists was reduced 60 to 70% following Ca2+ depletion. Ca2+ did not affect the apparent KACT for norepinephrine, nor did it change the concentration of propranolol required to produce 50% inhibition of the maximal norepinephrine response. Phentolamine did not alter the Ca2+ dependence of the response. The binding of dihydroalprenolol by intact C6 cells was not influenced by Ca2+. Furthermore, pretreatment with norepinephrine did not affect the Ca2+ dependence of cAMP accumulation. The effects of Ca2+, therefore, appeared to be exerted on components of the adenylate cyclase system other than the catecholamine receptor. Micromolar free Ca2+ concentration in the extracellular medium were sufficient to restore a maximal norepinephrine response to Ca2+-depeleted cells. The effect of Ca2+ on cAMP accumulation in response to hormone was immediate and was rapidly reversible upon the addition of EGTA in excess of the cation. Cells in media containing Ca2+ exhibited a characteristic biphasic time course of cAMP accumulation; with Ca2+-depleted cells cAMP was accumulated more slowly and the subsequent decline in cAMP content was also reduced. Verapamil, an inhibitor of plasmalemmal Ca2+ influx, decreased the Ca2+-dependent component of the cAMP accumulation when added prior to the cation. The effect of Ca2+ on cAMP accumulation was reduced more extensively by pretreatment of cells at 45 degrees C under Ca2+-depleted (80% loss) than under Ca2+-restored (30% loss) conditions. Trifluoperazine at micromolar concentrations decreased the Ca2+-dependent increment in accumulation of cAMP in Ca2+-restored cells. This inhibition was not overcome by increasing concentrations of norepinephrine or of extracellular Ca2+. 相似文献

Alterations of glial tumor cell Ca2+ metabolism and Ca2+-dependent cAMP accumulation by phorbol myristate acetate 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

C6 glial tumor cells exposed to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) possessed lowered cAMP content, reduced ability to accumulate cAMP in response to norepinephrine or cholera toxin, and a 3-fold increase in the concentration of norepinephrine producing 50% of the maximal rate of cAMP accumulation. Detectable effects on cAMP accumulation occurred within 10 min of exposure to PMA, and prominent effects by 2 h. PMA similarly affected cells pretreated with cycloheximide. In contrast, Ca2+-depleted preparations of control and PMA-treated cells accumulated cAMP identically in response to norepinephrine or cholera toxin. Ca2+ restoration, which increased the rate of cAMP accumulation in control cells severalfold, did not enhance cAMP accumulation in PMA-treated cells. Neither high catecholamine nor high extracellular Ca2+ concentrations reversed the suppression of cAMP accumulation by PMA. Trifluoperazine, which inhibited the Ca2+-dependent component of norepinephrine-stimulated cAMP accumulation in control cells, did not significantly reduce norepinephrine-stimulated cAMP accumulation in PMA-treated cells. Cell free preparations of control and PMA-treated cultures did not differ significantly in calmodulin content or in Ca2+-stimulated adenylate cyclase, Ca2+-dependent cAMP phosphodiesterase, and (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase activities. The Ca2+ content, however, of intact cells decreased with time of PMA treatment. Within minutes after exposure to PMA, the ability of Ca2+-depleted cells to take up 45Ca was significantly reduced. Both 45Ca uptake and Ca2+-dependent cAMP accumulation were reduced over the same PMA concentration range. 相似文献

Angiotensin II-mediated signal transduction events in cystic fibrosis pancreatic duct cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Different signal transduction pathways, i.e. Ca2+- and cAMP-dependent, involved in mediating the effects of angiotensin II (AII) were investigated separately using the short-circuit current (Isc) technique and radioimmunoassay (RIA) in a cystic fibrosis pancreatic cell line (CFPAC-1) which exhibits defective cAMP-dependent but intact Ca2+-dependent anion secretion. The AII-induced Isc could be inhibited by the specific antagonist for AT1, losartan (1 microM), but not the antagonist for AT2, PD123177 (up to 10 microM). The AII-induced Isc was also reduced by the treatment of the cells with a Ca2+ chelator, BAPTA-AM (100 microM), indicating a dependence of the AII-induced anion secretion on the intracellular Ca2+. Treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (0.1 microg/ml) or a phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor, U73122 (5 microM), resulted in a substantial reduction in the AII-induced Isc indicating involvement of Gi and PLC in the Ca2+-dependent anion secretion. RIA measurements showed that AII stimulated an increase in cAMP production which could be reduced by losartan, pertussis toxin and U73122 but not BAPTA-AM. In addition, inhibitors of cyclooxygenase, indomethacin (10 microM) and piroxicam (10 microM), did not have any effect on the AII-induced cAMP production, excluding the involvement of prostaglandins. Our results suggest that both AII-stimulated cAMP and Ca2+-dependent responses are mediated by the AT1 receptor and Gi-coupled PLC pathway. However, the AII-stimulated cAMP production in CFPAC-1 cells is not dependent on Ca2+ or the formation of prostaglandins. 相似文献

Modulation of the alpha 1-adrenergic control of hepatocyte calcium redistribution by increases in cyclic AMP 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
The Ca2+ content of hepatocytes from juvenile male rats (80-110 g) or adult female rats (135-155 g) displayed a biphasic dose-response curve to epinephrine. Low concentrations (less than or equal to 10(-7) M) caused efflux of Ca2+ from the cells, while higher concentrations (10(-6) M and 10(-5) M) induced net Ca2+ uptake which correlated with a large beta 2-adrenergic-mediated increase in cAMP (Morgan, N. G., Blackmore, P. F., and Exton, J. H. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 5103-5109). Calcium accumulation could be induced in cells from older male rats (180-230 g) by combining a Ca2+-mobilizing hormone with either exogenous cAMP or glucagon (10(-8) M). Readdition of Ca2+ in the presence of glucagon to cells treated with ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid also resulted in enhanced Ca2+ accumulation compared with controls. Addition of vasopressin plus glucagon to the medium perfusing male rat livers also led to cell Ca2+ accumulation, as evidenced by uptake of Ca2+ from the perfusate. Incubation of hepatocytes with antimycin A, oligomycin, and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone prevented net Ca2+ accumulation suggesting that mitochondria play a role in the uptake response. This was confirmed by isolation of mitochondria from cells incubated under conditions which promote Ca2+ accumulation. Within 5 min of incubation, the Ca2+ content of these mitochondria was increased 2-fold relative to controls, an effect which was inhibited by oligomycin. These studies demonstrate that a rise in hepatic cAMP can reverse hormonally induced Ca2+ mobilization and point to a major role for the mitochondria in this effect. 相似文献

Vasopressin elicited a dose-dependent inhibition of glucagon-induced cAMP accumulation in isolated hepatocytes. This response was not diminished by incubation of cells with the calmodulin antagonists trifluoperazine or chlorpromazine and was only slightly reduced in Ca2+-depleted hepatocytes. Half-maximal inhibition of cAMP accumulation occurred at 8 X 10(-11) M vasopressin, a dose which does not increase cytosolic Ca2+ in hepatocytes. Direct activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin was significantly inhibited by vasopressin in Ca2+-depleted cells. It is concluded that inhibition of hormone-induced cAMP accumulation by vasopressin in liver is not dependent on cellular Ca2+ mobilisation but may involve direct inhibition of adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Inhibitory actions of somatostatin on cyclic AMP and aldosterone production in agonist-stimulated adrenal glomerulosa cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Somatostatin (SRIF) is a potent inhibitor of angiotensin II (AII)-stimulated aldosterone production in rat adrenal glomerulosa cells. This inhibition can be prevented by pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin, but little else is known about either the specificity or the biochemical bases of SRIF action in this tissue. We therefore conducted detailed studies of the influence of SRIF on steroidogenesis elicited by AII and the other two physiological stimuli of aldosterone production, K+ and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), in rat adrenal glomerulosa cells. We also determined the effects of SRIF on cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and cellular cAMP levels. In these studies, SRIF was found to inhibit the aldosterone responses elicited by low concentrations of all three stimuli, which are believed to promote steroid secretion via discrete but interacting cellular signalling mechanisms. In addition, SRIF consistently lowered cellular cAMP levels in the presence of each of the three agents. However, SRIF caused a small and transient increase rather than a decrease in basal ([Ca2+]i), and had no effect on the subsequent elevation of ([Ca2+]i) by AII and K+. These data indicate that activation of a Gi-like protein by SRIF influences steroid responses to all three major regulators of glomerulosa-cell function, and suggest that basal levels of cAMP play a facilitatory or permissive role in the control of aldosterone production by predominantly calcium-mobilizing regulators of mineralocorticoid secretion. 相似文献

Renovascular hypertension is one of the most important risk factors in the development of atherosclerosis. However, very little is known about the role of angiotensin II (AII), a key regulator of blood pressure homeostasis, on renovascular hypertension-associated atherogenesis. To study a possible role of AII on atherogenesis, we generated apoE-deficient hypertensive mice with either normal or increased AII production by applying 1-kidney, 1-clip (1K1C) or 2-kidney, 1-clip (2K1C) operation, respectively. Hypertension was successfully achieved in both mice groups, and was persistent for 8 weeks. Atherosclerosis quantification showed a marked increase in lesion area in aortic sinus of 2K1C mice as compared with 1K1C mice, suggesting a potential role of endogenous AII on atherogenesis. In the immunohistochemical analysis, induction of renovascular hypertension with 2K1C for 8 weeks led to an enhanced accumulation of macrophages in the aortic sinus, which was accompanied by a parallel increase in scavenger receptor A (SRA) expression on the macrophages. In in vitro experiments, although treatment of cells with increasing concentrations of AII (0.1 to 10 microM) affects neither SRA expression nor oxLDL uptake by macrophages, conditioned media (CM) derived from AII-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) increased macrophage uptake of oxLDL in association with an enhanced expression of SRA on the macrophages. These findings suggest that the increased generation of AII in renovascular hypertension may initiate and promote atherosclerosis by activation of VSMC. 相似文献

Anterior pituitary corticotropes show a wide repertory of responses to hypothalamic neuropeptides and adrenal corticosteroids. The hypothesis that plasticity of the cAMP signaling system underlies this adaptive versatility was investigated. In dispersed rat anterior pituitary cells, depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin combined with ryanodine or caffeine enhanced the corticotropin releasing-factor (CRF)-evoked cAMP response by 4-fold, whereas reduction of Ca2+ entry alone had no effect. CRF-induced cAMP was amplified 15-fold by arginine-vasopressin (AVP) or phorbol-dibutyrate ester. In the presence of inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and phorbol-dibutyrate ester, the depletion of Ca2+ stores had no further effect on CRF-induced cAMP accumulation. Adenohypophysial expression of mRNAs for the Ca2+-inhibited adenylyl cyclases (ACs) VI and IX, and the protein kinase C-stimulated ACs II and VII was demonstrated. ACIX was detected in corticotropes by immunocytochemistry, whereas ACII and ACVI were not present. The data show negative feedback regulation of CRF-induced cAMP levels by Ca2+ derived from ryanodine receptor-operated intracellular stores. Stimulation of protein kinase C by AVP enhances Ca2+-independent cAMP synthesis, thus changing the characteristics of intracellular Ca2+ feedback. It is proposed that the modulation of intracellular Ca2+ feedback in corticotropes by AVP is an important element of physiological control. 相似文献

The contribution of an omega-conotoxin GVIA (omega Cgtx)-sensitive Ca2+ influx pathway to the effects of angiotensin II (AII) receptor activation was examined in bovine adrenal medullary (BAM) cells. Pretreatment of BAM cells with 10(-6) M omega Cgtx blocked stimulation of exocytosis by the degradation-resistant analogue, sarcosine1-angiotensin II (S1-AII). In contrast, omega Cgtx had no effect on basal secretion, nor did it inhibit [3H]norepinephrine and [32P]ATP release in response to bradykinin, another phospholipase C-linked receptor agonist. Similarly, omega Cgtx pretreatment inhibited the stimulation of 45Ca2+ uptake by S1-AII, but did not affect the response to bradykinin. This selective inhibition did not appear to be due to blockade of AII receptors by omega Cgtx, as the accumulation of 3H-labeled inositol phosphates in response to S1-AII was not inhibited. The peak S1-AII-stimulated increase in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration (Cai) in fura 2-loaded BAM cells also was not significantly reduced by omega Cgtx (or by stimulating in nominally Ca(2+)-free buffer), indicating that this response is dependent on intracellular Ca2+ pools. However, a small omega Cgtx-sensitive Cai response was detected after depletion of intracellular Ca2+ pools with ionomycin. This study shows that AII receptors, but not bradykinin receptors, are linked to an omega Cgtx-sensitive Ca2+ influx pathway in BAM cells. 相似文献

Adenylyl cyclases present a potential focal point for signal integration in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) influencing contractile state and cellular responses to vessel wall injury. In the present study, we examined the influence of the vasoactive peptide arginine vasopressin (AVP) on cAMP regulation in primary cultures of rat aortic VSMC and in the A7r5 arterial smooth muscle cell line. In cultured VSMC and A7r5 cells, AVP had no effect on basal cAMP but differentially affected beta-adrenergic receptor-induced activation of adenylyl cyclase. AVP synergistically increased (twofold) isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP production in VSMC but inhibited the effect of isoproterenol (50%) in the A7r5 cell line. The effects of AVP in both preparations were blocked when cells were pretreated with a selective V(1) vasopressin receptor antagonist. Moreover, the actions of AVP in both models were dependent on release of intracellular Ca(2+) and were mimicked by elevation of Ca(2+) with the ionophore A23187, suggesting that the responses to AVP involve Ca(2+)-mediated regulation of adenylyl cyclase stimulation. Adenylyl cyclase types I, III, and VIII are stimulated by Ca(2+)/calmodulin, whereas types V and VI are directly inhibited by Ca(2+). RNA blot analysis for effector isotypes indicated that both VSMC and A7r5 cells expressed types III, V, and VI. VSMC also expressed mRNA for type IV and VIII effectors, which could account for the cell-specific responses to peptide hormone and Ca(2+). 相似文献

Angiotensin II (AII) and K+ raise the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) and stimulate aldosterone production in isolated bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. The mechanisms leading to an elevation of [Ca2+]i were analysed with the fluorescent Ca2+ probe quin 2. (1) Whereas [Ca2+]i rose transiently and returned to basal values within 5 min in response to AII, the effect of K+ was sustained for at least 15 min. (2) AII released Ca2+ from intracellular stores, whereas the [Ca2+]i response to K+ depended solely on extracellular [Ca2+]. (3) When added after K+ stimulation, AII provoked a dramatic decrease in [Ca2+]i to below the resting value. The role of [Ca2+]i in stimulating steroidogenesis was determined by manipulating the concentration of this cation. (4) In a cell superfusion system, the aldosterone response to AII is biphasic. Suppressing the transient [Ca2+]i elevation triggered by AII resulted in the disappearance of the initial secretory peak, but the final production rate was similar to that of control cells. (5) Normal basal [Ca2+]i levels were, however, necessary to maintain continuous AII-induced steroidogenesis. (6) When added after AII, the antagonist analogue [Sar1,Ala8]AII suppressed steroidogenesis without affecting [Ca2+]i levels. (7) In contrast, continuously elevated [Ca2+]i values were required for the initiation and the maintenance of K+-stimulated aldosterone production. These results demonstrate important differences in the mechanisms through which AII and K+ activate the Ca2+ messenger system. Moreover, functional correlations have shown that K+, but not AII, depends solely on a sustained [Ca2+]i response for its steroidogenic effect. However, the AII-induced effect is also a Ca2+-requiring process: the initial [Ca2+]i transient accelerates the onset of steroidogenesis, which is subsequently extremely sensitive to [Ca2+]i decreases below normal basal levels. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and angiotensin II (AII) are thought to mediate their biological effects in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by causing alterations in cytosolic free calcium ([ Ca2+]i). In this study we examine the pathways by which PDGF and AII alter [Ca2+]i in VSMCs. Addition of PDGF resulted in a rapid, transient, concentration-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i; this rise in [Ca2+]i was blocked completely by preincubation of cells with ethylene glycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) or CoCl2, by the voltage-sensitive Ca2+-channel antagonists verapamil or nifedipine, by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), or by pertussis toxin. AII also caused an increase in [Ca2+]i; however, AII-stimulated alterations in [Ca2+]i displayed different kinetics compared with those caused by PDGF. Pretreatment of cells with 8-(diethylamine)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethyoxybenzoate hydrochloride (TMB-8), almost totally inhibited AII-induced increases in [Ca2+]i. EGTA or CoCl2 only slightly diminished AII-stimulated increases in [Ca2+]i. Nifedipine, verapamil, TPA, and pertussis toxin pretreatment were without effect on AII-induced increases in [Ca2+]i. PDGF and AII both stimulated increases in total inositol phosphate accumulation, although the one-half maximal concentration (ED50) for alterations in [Ca2+]i and phosphoinisitide hydrolysis differed by a factor of 10 for PDGF (3 X 10(-10) M for Ca2+ vs. 2.5 X 10(-9) M for phosphoinositide hydrolysis), but they were essentially identical for AII (7.5 X 10(-9) M for Ca2+ vs. 5.0 X 10(-9) M for phosphoinositide hydrolysis). PDGF stimulated mitogenesis (as measured by [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA) in VSMCs with an ED50 similar to that for PDGF-induced alterations in phosphoinositide hydrolysis. PDGF-stimulated mitogenesis was blocked by pretreatment of cells with voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel blockers, TPA, or pertussis toxin. These results suggest that PDGF and AII cause alterations in [Ca2+]i in VSMCs by at least quantitatively distinct mechanisms. PDGF binding activates a pertussis-toxin-sensitive Ca2+ influx into cells via voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels (blocked by EGTA, verapamil, and nifedipine), as well as stimulating phosphoinositide hydrolysis leading to release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. AII-induced alterations in [Ca2+]i are mainly the result of phosphoinositide hydrolysis and consequent entry of Ca2+ into the cytoplasm from intracellular stores. Our data also suggest that changes in [Ca2+]i caused by PDGF are required for PDGF-stimulated mitogenesis. 相似文献

We have previously shown that A10 vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) exposed to angiotensin II (Ang?II) exhibited overexpression of Giα proteins. In the present study, we examined the involvement of different signaling pathways in regulating Ang II induced enhanced expression of Giα proteins in VSMC by using pharmacological inhibitors. Ang II induced increased expression of Giα proteins in A10 VSMC was markedly attenuated by actinomycin D, losartan (an AT(1) receptor antagonist), dibutyryl cAMP, phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U73122, protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors staurosporine and GP109203X, but not by PD123319 (an AT(2) receptor antagonist). In addition, BAPTA-AM and TMB-8 (chelators of intracellular Ca(2+)); and nifedipine (a blocker of L-type Ca(2+) channels) significantly inhibited Ang II induced enhanced expression of Giα proteins. On the other hand, extracellular Ca(2+) chelation using EGTA did not affect the Ang II evoked enhanced levels of Giα proteins. Furthermore, pretreatment of A10 VSMC with calmidazolium (an inhibitor of calmodulin), or KN93 (an inhibitor of CaM kinase), or genistein (an inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinase, PTK), also attenuated the increased levels of Giα proteins induced by Ang?II. These results suggest that Ang II induced enhanced expression of Giα proteins may be regulated by different signaling pathways through AT(1) receptors in A10 VSMC. 相似文献

Dissociation of Ca2+ entry and Ca2+ mobilization responses to angiotensin II in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In fura-2-loaded bovine adrenal chromaffin cells, 0.5 microM angiotensin II (AII) stimulated a 185 +/- 19 nM increase of intracellular-free calcium [( Ca2+]i) approximately 3 s after addition. The time from the onset of the response until achieving 50% recovery (t 1/2) was 67 +/- 10 s. Concomitantly, AII stimulated both the release of 45Ca2+ from prelabeled cells, and a 4-5-fold increase of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [( 3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3) levels. In the presence of 50 microM LaCl3, or when extracellular-free Ca2+ [( Ca2+]o) was less than 100 nM, AII still rapidly increased [Ca2+]i by 95-135 nM, but the t 1/2 for recovery was then only 23-27 s. In medium with 1 mM MnCl2 present, AII also stimulated a small amount of Mn2+ influx, as judged by quenching of the fura-2 signal. When [Ca2+]o was normal (1.1 mM) or low (less than 60 nM), 1-2 microM ionomycin caused [Ca2+]i to increase 204 +/- 26 nM, while also releasing 45-55% of bound 45Ca2+. With low [Ca2+]o, ionomycin pretreatment abolished both the [Ca2+]i increase and 45Ca2+ release stimulated by AII. However, after ionomycin pretreatment in normal medium, AII produced a La3+-inhibitable increase of [Ca2+]i (103 +/- 13 nM) with a t 1/2 of 89 +/- 8 s, but no 45Ca2+ release. No pretreatment condition altered AII-induced formation of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3. We conclude that AII increased [Ca2+]i via rapid and transient Ca2+ mobilization from Ins(1,4,5)P3- and ionomycin-sensitive stores, accompanied (and/or followed) by Ca2+ entry through a La3+-inhibitable divalent cation pathway. Furthermore, the ability of AII to activate Ca2+ entry in the absence of Ca2+ mobilization (i.e. after ionomycin pretreatment) suggests a receptor-linked stimulus other than Ca2+ mobilization initiates Ca2+ entry. 相似文献

In FRTL-5 thyroid cells, thyrotropin (TSH) stimulates I- efflux in association with phospholipase C activation and Ca2+ mobilization. TSH also stimulates DNA synthesis, accompanied by cAMP accumulation. Significant activation of the phospholipase C-Ca2+ pathway requires 10-100 nM TSH a concentration 10(3) to 10(4) times higher than necessary to stimulate the cAMP pathway. When the P1-purinergic agonist, phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA) is added to the reaction medium, the former pathway is markedly enhanced, whereas the latter pathway is inhibited. As a result, in the presence of PIA, both TSH-induced pathways are activated at similar TSH concentrations. These PIA actions are completely reversed by a prior treatment of cells with islet-activating protein (IAP); pertussis toxin. When adenosine deaminase is added to the reaction medium, TSH-induced cAMP accumulation is significantly enhanced, suggesting an autocrine action of adenosine. In IAP-treated cells, the level of TSH-induced cAMP accumulation reaches that of deaminase-treated control cells, and no further increase is observed when adenosine deaminase is added. We conclude that in the thyroid, either an neural or autocrine adenosine signal, mediated by an IAP-sensitive G-protein, switches TSH signal transduction from the cAMP pathway to the phospholipase C-Ca2+ pathway. 相似文献

Sheep anterior-pituitary cells permeabilized with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin were used to investigate the role of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in exocytosis of luteinizing hormone (lutropin, LH) under conditions where the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]free) is clamped by Ca2+ buffers. At resting [Ca2+]free (pCa 7), cAMP rapidly stimulated LH exocytosis (within 5 min) and continued to stimulate exocytosis for at least 30 min. When cAMP breakdown was inhibited by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), the concentration giving half-maximal response (EC50) for cAMP-stimulated exocytosis was 10 microM. cAMP-stimulated exocytosis required millimolar concentrations of MgATP, as has been found with Ca2(+)- and phorbol-ester-stimulated LH exocytosis. cAMP caused a modest enhancement of Ca2(+)-stimulated LH exocytosis by decreasing in the EC50 for Ca2+ from pCa 5.6 to pCa 5.9, but had little effect on the maximal LH response to Ca2+. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) dramatically enhanced cAMP-stimulated LH exocytosis by both increasing the maximal effect 5-7-fold and decreasing the EC50 for cAMP to 3 microM. This synergism between cAMP and PMA was further augmented by increasing the [Ca2+]free. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (gonadoliberin, GnRH) stimulated cAMP production in intact pituitary cells. Since GnRH stimulation is reported to activate PKC and increase the intracellular [Ca2+]free, our results suggest that a synergistic interaction of the cAMP, PKC and Ca2+ second-messenger systems is of importance in the mechanism of GnRH-stimulated LH exocytosis. 相似文献
