Abstract: | We examined calcium and calmodulin regulation of atrial natriuretic factor stimulation of particulate-membrane guanylate cyclase (ANF-s-GC) in SK-NEP-1 cells. W7 and trifluoropiperazine, but not W5, inhibited whole cellular ANF-stimulated cyclic GMP accumulation (ANF-s-cGMP). EGTA and LaCl3 decreased ANF-s-GC and calmodulin reversed this inhibition. A23187-induced inhibition of ANF-s-cGMP was only partly reversible by IBMX. H7 or staurosporine counteracted the inhibitory effect of A23187. Calcium inhibited basal and ANF-s-GC. These data suggest that at low concentrations of calcium, ANF-s-GC was calcium-calmodulin dependent but high concentrations of calcium inhibited ANF-s-GC through phosphodiesterase, through inhibition of GC, and probably through protein kinase C. |
