Abstract
Specific effects of cadmium on nuclear protein kinase C activity were found with 3T3/10T1/2 mouse fibroblast and rat liver nuclei. Treatment of the mouse fibroblasts in culture with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate resulted in the stimulation of nuclear protein kinase C activity in a "fixed" pool which is defined by its resistance to chelator extraction, whereas the chelator extractable enzyme activity, defined as the "labile" pool was unaffected. Cadmium was found to potentiate the effect of the phorbol ester, directed specifically to nuclei, since the particulate protein kinase C activity was not changed under similar treatment. In a reconstituted system consisting of rat liver nuclei and rat brain protein kinase C, cadmium stimulated the binding of the enzyme to a 105-kDa nuclear protein. The binding of a 105-kDa protein to protein kinase C is attributed strictly due to the cadmium effect, whereas a 50-kDa protein binding to protein kinase C was only enhanced by cadmium. We propose a mechanistic model, where cadmium substitutes zinc in the regulatory domain of protein kinase C rendering the putative protein-protein binding site exposed.

Abstract
Lupus anticoagulant was detected in 205 newly diagnosed, untreated patients with systemic lupus erythematosus by the following tests: kaolin clotting time, activated partial thromboplastin time, plasma prothrombin time, and, in the last 99 patients, by dilute Russell's viper venom time. In 10 patients, lupus anticoagulant was detected by kaolin clotting time prolongation, corrected by inosithin but not by normal plasma; 12 and 6 of them had prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time and partial plasma prothrombin time, respectively. Only 10 patients had a history of recurrent abortions and/or thrombosis, nine of whom had lupus anticoagulant as shown by the kaolin clotting time test. Of the 99 patients studied by all four tests, 9 showed lupus anticoagulant by both kaolin clotting time and dilute Russell's viper venom time; 7 had a history of abortion and/or thrombosis. The dilute Russell's viper venom time test is easy to perform and not affected by inhibitors to factor VIII or IX. It is recommended as a primary screening test for lupus anticoagulant detection in a hospital clinical laboratory.

Abstract
To assess the pathogenesis of the gastro-duodenal mucosal lesions in rheumatoid arthritis, 36 patients, consisting of 23 (group I) receiving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and 13 (group II) on alternative forms of treatment, were examined by fibreoptic upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Ten (43%) of 23 patients receiving NSAIDs showed mucosal damage in the form of erosions or a definite ulcer crater, compared to only one (8%) of 13 in group II (p less than 0.05). There was no correlation between the duration of illness and the incidence of mucosal lesions. These findings indicate that the high incidence of gastroduodenal mucosal abnormalities seen in rheumatoid arthritis is related to the use of NSAIDs and not to the underlying disease process.

Abstract
The effect of prolonged administration of antagonists on rat striatal dopamine D2 receptor binding and mRNA content was examined. Both haloperidol (2 and 4 mg/kg) and sulpiride (10 mg/kg) induced a significant rise in total D2 and D2(444) mRNA level and in Bmax. Regulation of messenger RNA accumulation is thus an important determinant of dopamine D2 receptor density.

Abstract
It is well known that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding and release of calcium are mediated by the same protein. Several reports have indicated the location of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in organelles other than endoplasmic reticulum. Immunocytochemical studies on the subcellular localization of 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in the Purkinje cells from two laboratories have given contradictory results regarding the nuclear location of this receptor. In this paper, a high-affinity inositol 1,4,5-[32P]trisphosphate binding site (Kd = 0.11 nM) on nuclei isolated from rat liver and devoid of any microsomal, mitochondrial, or plasma membrane constituents is documented. Furthermore, we present data demonstrating that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is capable of releasing 45Ca2+ from the intact isolated liver nuclei. A rapid and transient release of calcium that was taken up by nuclei in the presence of ATP is observed. The role of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in the coupling between cytoplasmic second messengers and nuclear events activated during signal transduction is postulated.

Abstract
The effect of purified protein kinase C (PKC) on dopamine D2 receptor binding was studied. Saturation binding with [3H]spiperone was not affected. In competition experiments using agonists PKC-treated membranes showed a significant reduction in the proportion of high affinity sites, and the influence of GTP gamma S was abolished. These results suggest that PKC-dependent mechanisms can regulate the coupling between the dopamine D2 receptor and its G-protein.

Abstract
Rat liver nuclei protein kinase C is identified as type II isozyme employing monospecific antibodies obtained against each three types of rat brain protein kinase C isozymes. (Yoshida, Y., Huang, F. L., Nakabayashi, H., and Huang, K-P. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 9868-9873). A major immunoreactive protein band at 80 kDa was revealed by type II isozyme antibodies at each step of purification, nuclear extract included. The nuclear protein kinase C has been purified to apparent homogeneity as revealed by silver nitrate staining on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showing a single 80 kDa protein band. It does seem that 66 kDa protein (Masmoudi, A., Labourdette, G., Mersel, M., Huang, F. L., Huang, K.-P., Vincendon, G., and Malviya, A. N. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1172-1179) is a major contaminant devoid of any protein kinase activity. The ratio obtained between protein kinase C enzymatic activity over phorbol dibutyrate bound, at various purification steps, indicates that the nuclear enzyme is a phorbol ester receptor. When isolated nuclei were incubated with 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate, endogenous protein kinase C activity was elevated about 8-10-fold suggesting the existence of phorbol ester signaling pathway at the level of nucleus. The role of nuclear protein kinase C is delineated in the regulation of inducible gene transcription

Abstract
In the rat liver homogenate, maximal protein kinase C activity was found at two calcium concentrations (1.75 and 3.5 mM). Subcellular fractionation of the liver homogenate revealed that the protein kinase C activity requiring 1.75 mM calcium was present only in the cytosolic and particulate subcellular fractions. The protein kinase C activity requiring 3.5 mM calcium concentration was mainly located in the rat liver nuclei preparation. About 19% of the liver homogenate protein kinase C activity requiring 3.5 mM calcium was present in the nuclei. Goat anti-rat brain protein kinase C antibodies revealed a single immunoreactive band at 80-82 kDa in the rat liver nuclear, particulate, or cytosolic fractions. Based on the ratio of plasma membrane marker enzyme activity determined in the nuclear preparation, the purity of the isolated nuclei was ascertained. Rat liver nuclear protein kinase C activity has been partially purified. The purification steps sequentially employed were Triton X-100 extraction of isolated nuclei, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Phenyl-Superose, and Mono Q (fast protein liquid) chromatography. The final purification step revealed, by silver nitrate staining on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, two protein bands at 80 and 66 kDa, respectively. These findings provide definitive data regarding the nuclear location of protein kinase C. The nuclear location of protein kinase C may lead to an understanding of the molecular pathway involved in signal transduction from the plasma membrane to the nucleus.

Abstract
Cyanide, the classical inhibitor of the mitochondrial respiratory chain at site III, stimulates ADP-ribosylation of a number of mitochondrial proteins, the major protein being the 50-55 kDa band. Sodium azide, sharing the same inhibitory site, does not have the same effect. Rotenone or antimycin A have no influence on mitochondrial ADP-ribosylation. Data suggest that no apparent correlation exists between oxidoreductase function and protein ADP-ribosylation. Purified nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity was not affected by cyanide. The cyanide effect on mitochondrial ADP-ribosylation seems intriguing and may be attributed to NAD+-CN complex formation, since NAD reacts with cyanide at pH greater than 8 with N-substituted nicotinamide which may prevent inhibition of ADP-ribosylation.

Abstract
Using sequential extraction procedure of proteins from adult rat forebrain, a protein of Mr 52,000, insoluble in neutral detergents, capable of binding calmodulin in the presence of Ca2+, was isolated. Antibodies to this antigen had the capacity to inhibit the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase activity associated with this protein. This protein (52K) (in many respects identical to the major protein of postsynaptic densities) shares by itself the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase activity, thus differing from soluble Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinases isolated by others. Despite its insolubility in most detergents, the 52K protein is not particularly rich in hydrophobic amino acids. Its richness in cysteine and proline residues suggests that the active conformation of the enzyme is sustained by numerous disulfide bridges.

The lipid composition of plasma membranes isolated from bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been determined. Choline and ethanolamine phosphatides were predominant; the level of lyso compounds was very low. The amount of cholesterol and the cholesterol/phospholipid molar ratio was low compared to those of the other subcellular fractions of chromaffin cells. A complex pattern of neutral glycolipids was observed in contrast to that of gangliosides.

Abstract
Transformed 3T3/10T1/2 cultured cells incubated with ferricyanide caused a decrease of 2 mM EDTA extractable cytosolic protein kinase C activity in 2 min, whereas 5 or 20 min ferricyanide treatment reverted the enzyme activity to that observed without ferricyanide. The ferricyanide effect in 2 min was abolished by amiloride and sustained by ouabain. Thus, deactivation-activation of cytosolic protein kinase C is attributed to an unknown signal generation during H+ accumulation coupled with the Na+/H+ exchange phase. In this mechanism the priming event concerns the transmembrane redox process shedding H+ into the cell interior while impermeant ferricyanide acts as a unique electron acceptor.

This is the confirmation of an earlier indication (Mersel, M., Malviya, A.N., Hindelang, C. and Mandel, P. (1984) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 778, 144-154) that the plasma membrane of astrocytes in primary cultures is endowed with DT-diaphorase (EC 1.6.99.2) activity. It is observed that the NADPH-2,6-dichloroindophenol diaphorase activity found in the isolated plasma membrane is not inhibited by dicoumarol. DT-diaphorase-type activity is also observed on the cell surface employing dichloroindophenol as external electron acceptor and it is found to be a dicoumarol-sensitive NADH dehydrogenase.

Abstract
A calcium-independent but 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)- or diacylglycerol-activated phospholipid-dependent phosphorylating activity has been separated from protein kinase C. This has been made possible by employing calcium-dependent hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The material bound to phenyl-Sepharose in the presence of calcium at low ionic strength was eluted with EGTA and was protein kinase C. While the unbound material passing through the phenyl-Sepharose column showed no appreciable protein kinase C activity, instead it had a high phosphorylating activity manifested in the absence of calcium and in the presence of TPA plus phospholipid. The identification of this phosphorylating activity, distinct from protein kinase C, leads to important clues to cellular responses monitored by TPA in the absence of calcium.

Abstract
Protein kinase C catalyzes phosphorylation of purified rat brain guanylate cyclase. The phosphorylation is marked by concomitant increase in guanylate cyclase activity. TPA further enhances both phosphorylation and activity of guanylate cyclase. Data seem to provide clues to the molecular mechanism of one of the transformation-like responses mimicked by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, i.e. the elevation of cyclic GMP. It is envisaged that protein kinase C may have a central role in the understanding of molecular events triggering carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Rat astrocytes in primary cultures were employed to isolate the plasma membrane. The method for the isolation of plasma membrane was based on the capacity of the cytoskeleton to adhere to the substratum entrapping intracellular organelles during freezing-thawing cycle performed on the cell. By washing the 'surface adherent framework', the untrapped plasma membrane were recovered and density equilibrium centrifugation resulted in the isolated membrane. The isolated plasma membrane was characterized on the basis of a variety of marker enzymes positive to the plasma membrane such as (Na+ + K+)-ATPase or 5'-nucleotidase as well as the lack of conventional markers of other endomembranes. Ultrastructurally the membranes, as isolated here, were mainly vesicular in nature. The isolated plasma membrane was devoid of the dehydrogenase responsible for NADH-cytochrome c reductase activity. However, NADH-ferricyanide reductase activity and the dehydrogenase system catalyzing the transfer of reducing equivalents from NADH or NADPH to dichloroindophenol seems plasma membrane redox system. The identical specific activity employing dichloroindophenol as an electron acceptor with NADH or NADPH as donor indicate a DT-diaphorase (EC 1.6.99.2) like activity in the astrocytes plasma membrane.

Abstract
Cytochrome b-561 in chromaffin granules interacts with antimycin and its alpha-peak shifts 1 nm towards red. When chromaffin granules were treated with Triton X-100 antimycin no effect was observed. Cytochrome b-561 is located in the plasma membrane isolated from the chromaffin cells. The plasma membrane b-561 does not seem to interact with antimycin. A number of NADH or NADPH (acceptor) oxidoreductase activity has been observed in isolated plasma membrane providing clues to the origin of plasma membrane dehydrogenase. The possible role of cytochrome b-561 in secretory granules other than its accredited energy conserving electron transport property is projected.

Abstract
The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) influences neither the State 3 nor the State 4 respiration in rat liver mitochondria. The respiratory control and ADP/O ratio were also unaffected by TPA. The oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity in submitochondrial particles remained unaltered upon TPA addition, whereas the NADH oxidase activity was slightly inhibited at a very high concentration of TPA (15% decrease at 17 microM TPA). The activity of the superoxide dismutase located to the mitochondria was insensitive to the tumor promoter, and no change in the rate of H2O2 production was found on TPA treatment in vitro. Thus, the mitochondrion is not a likely candidate for the site of action of the tumor promoter.
