Abstract
Evidence is presented to show that acid extracts of avian erythrocytes prelabelled for 24-48 h with myo-[3H]inositol contain the following myo-[3H]inositol trisphosphates (expressed as a percentage of total myo-[3H]inositol trisphosphates extracted): 36% myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate; 33.7% myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate; 13% myo-[3H]inositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate; 9.7% myo-[3H]inositol 3,4,6-trisphosphate; 4.4% myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,6-trisphosphate and 3.3% myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,6-trisphosphate. The only phosphatidyl-myo-[3H]inositol bisphosphate that could be detected in [3H]Ins-prelabelled avian erythrocytes was phosphatidyl-myo-[3H]inositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Cellular myo-[3H]inositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate may be synthesized by dephosphorylation of myo-[3H]inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate. D- and L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,6-trisphosphate and D- and L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,6-trisphosphate may be dephosphorylation products of myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate.

Abstract
Isomers of inositol phosphates from biological samples can be analysed by anion-exchange h.p.l.c., by using isocratic elution with phosphate buffers. The method involves the preliminary processing of the extracted samples with conventional soft-gel anion-exchange resins, including the commonly used Dowex resins, followed by direct analysis with h.p.l.c. of a portion of relevant fractions. Run times (up to 20 min) and collected fraction numbers (up to 24) are minimal, so that if the method is used in conjunction with automated h.p.l.c. injection a high throughput of samples is achieved.

Abstract
Phagocytosis of C3bi- or IgG-opsonized yeast particles in human neutrophils was found to be associated with an increased formation of inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol. Pertussis toxin only marginally affected phagocytosis of IgG- and C3bi-opsonized particles and the associated formation of second messengers. Forskolin, which induced a threefold rise of cellular cAMP, however, markedly inhibited both C3bi- and IgG-mediated phagocytosis as well as the particle-induced formation of inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol. These observations are in contrast to what was found to occur with chemotactic factors and indicate that chemotactic and phagocytic signaling can be regulated independently in human neutrophils. Since C3bi-mediated phagocytosis has been shown to occur at vanishingly low cytosolic free calcium levels, calcium-depleted cells were used to study the importance of the inositol cycle for the engulfment of C3bi-opsonized particles. Despite a total lack of receptor-induced formation of inositol phosphates, a significantly increased accumulation of diacylglycerol accompanied the ingestion of C3bi-opsonized particles. These data show that the engulfment of C3bi-opsonized particles can occur independently of both a calcium transient and an increased inositol phosphate production. However, the observed accumulation of diacylglycerol, not derived from phosphoinositides, suggests that this second messenger play a role in the control of the engulfment process.

Abstract
Using a goldfish-derived melanized cell line, we attempted to determine the identity of the signal transduction system/second messenger for epinephrine-induced aggregation of melanosomes in a goldfish cell line. The results show that the second messenger is unknown. It is not 1) influx of extracellular calcium, 2) release of intracellular stored calcium via the phosphoinositide pathway, 3) cGMP, or 4) decrease of cAMP. These results suggest that there is an unknown second messenger for this activity of epinephrine.

Abstract
Free cytosolic Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i) has been implicated as a second messenger mediating the ion transport effects of carbachol, histamine, taurodeoxycholate, ionomycin, and 4-bromo-A23187 (4-BrA23187) in T84-cells. In this study, we correlated short-circuit current (Isc, reflective of Cl- secretion) and [Ca2+]i responses in T84-cell monolayers stimulated by these agents to evaluate the role of [Ca2+]i in Cl- secretory responses. Time-course studies showed that the duration of [Ca2+]i and Isc responses did not correlate with one another. Isc responses were more prolonged than [Ca2+]i responses with carbachol and histamine (both derived [Ca2+]i partly from intracellular sources), less prolonged than [Ca2+]i with taurodeoxycholate, and continued to increase after [Ca2+]i stabilized with ionomycin and 4-BrA23187. Isc and [Ca2+]i responses to histamine and carbachol were additive. A comparison of the magnitude of [Ca2+]i and Isc responses in cells stimulated by different agonists showed that the change in [Ca2+]i accompanying equivalent Isc responses varied greatly, suggesting that secretagogues vary in their dependency on [Ca2+]i. These findings suggest the existence of multiple [Ca2+]i-mediated effector mechanisms or the existence of multiple mediators that augment or attenuate the action of [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
We have developed an ion-pair reverse-phase HPLC method to measure inositol phosphates in 32P-labeled cells. The different chromatographic parameters were analyzed to optimize the resolution of the 32P-labeled metabolites. Analysis of inositol phosphates in biological samples was improved by a single charcoal pretreatment which eliminated interfering nucleotides without removing inositol phosphates. The kinetics of production of inositol phosphates in calcium-activated erythrocytes, vasopressin-stimulated hepatocytes, and thrombin-activated platelets were analyzed. Original data on the activation of phosphoinositide phospholipase C were obtained in intact erythrocytes by direct measurement of inositol (1,4,5)P3. Data from agonist-stimulated hepatocytes and platelets were consistent with those from previous studies. In conclusion, this technique offers many advantages over the methodologies currently employed involving anion-exchange chromatography and [3H]inositol labeling: (i) 32P labeling is less expensive and more efficient than 3H labeling and can be used with all types of cells without permeabilization treatments and (ii) ion-pair HPLC gives good resolution of inositol phosphates from nucleotides with shorter retention times, and long reequilibration periods are not required.

Abstract
Rat hippocampal formation slices were prelabelled with [3H]inositol and stimulated with carbachol for times between 7 s and 3 min. The [3H]inositol metabolites in an acid extract of the slices were resolved with anion-exchange HPLC. Carbachol dramatically increased the concentration of [3H]inositol monophosphate, [3H]inositol bisphosphate (two isomers), [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. The levels of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate rose most rapidly; they were maximally elevated after only 7 s and declined toward control levels in 1 min followed by a more sustained elevation in levels for up to 3 min. When [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was incubated with hippocampal formation homogenates in an ATP-containing buffer it was very rapidly metabolised. After 5 min [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate could be detected in the homogenates. Under similar experimental conditions [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate is metabolised to [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and an inositol bisphosphate isomer that is not [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. We conclude that like other tissues the primary event in the hippocampus following carbachol stimulation is the activation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate selective phospholipase C.

Abstract
Pea (Pisum sativum) leaf discs or swimming suspensions of Chlamydomonas eugametos were radiolabeled with [(3)H]myo-inositol or [(32)P]Pi and the lipids were extracted, deacylated, and their glycerol moieties removed. The resulting inositol trisphosphate and bisphosphate fractions were examined by periodate degradation, reduction and dephosphorylation, or by incubation with human red cell membranes. Their likely structures were identified as d-myo-inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate and d-myo-inositol(1,4,)-bisphosphate. It is concluded that plants contain phosphatidylinositol(4)phosphate and phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate; no other polyphosphoinositides were detected.

Abstract
Myocardial alpha 1-adrenoceptors mediate a positive inotropic effect and influence the inositol phosphate cycle. The receptor-stimulated, phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) results in the generation of two novel second messengers, inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DG). This effect is concentration-dependent and precedes the increase in force of contraction. Recently, it has been shown that the alpha 1-adrenoceptor-mediated increase in IP3 and force of contraction exists in the human heart as well. Possible mechanisms for an inositol phosphate-mediated positive inotropic effect are: (i) release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, elicited by IP3, (ii) increase in Ca2+ sensitivity of the contractile proteins, elicited by IP3, inositol tetrakisphosphate (IP4) and/or DG, (iii) increase in slow Ca2+ inward current, elicited directly by IP4 and/or indirectly by DG through a phosphorylation of the protein kinase C substrate in the sarcolemma. In ventricular cardiac preparations muscarinic agonists have a weak positive inotropic effect, but in cardiac atrial preparations they have a negative inotropic effect. In both preparations, these different effects coincide with a concentration-dependent increase in IP3. Thus, the possible positive inotropic effect in atrial preparations is probably masked by an activation of a K+ outward current. The relationship between the inositol phosphate cycle and the positive inotropic effect is in some points still speculative because not all of the mechanisms discussed are well settled yet. However, the stimulation of myocardial phosphoinositide breakdown resulting in an increased IP3 may be involved in the mechanism(s) whereby alpha1-adrenergic and muscarinic receptor stimulation exert an increase in myocardial force of contraction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. Basal and carbachol-stimulated accumulations of isomeric [3H]inositol mono-, bis-, tris- and tetrakis-phosphates were examined in rat cerebral-cortex slices labelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol. 2. In control samples the major [3H]inositol phosphates detected were co-eluted on h.p.l.c. with Ins(1)P, Ins(4)P (inositol 1- and 4-monophosphate respectively), Ins(1,4)P2 (inositol 1,4-bisphosphate), Ins(1,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-tris-phosphate) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate). 3. After stimulation to steady state with carbachol, accumulation of each of these products was markedly increased. 4. Agonist stimulation, however, also evoked much more dramatic increased accumulations of a second [3H]inositol trisphosphate, which was co-eluted on h.p.l.c. with authentic Ins(1,3,4)P3 (inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate) and of three further [3H]inositol bisphosphates ([3H]InsP2(s]. 5. Examination of the latter by chemical degradation by periodate oxidation and/or h.p.l.c. allowed identification of these as [3H]Ins(1,3)P2, [3H]Ins(3,4)P2 and [3H]Ins(4,5)P2 (inositol 1,3-, 3,4- and 4,5-bisphosphates respectively), which respectively accounted for about 22%, 8% and 3% of total [3H]InsP2 in extracts from stimulated tissue slices. 6. By using a h.p.l.c. method which clearly resolves Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,3,4,6)P4 (inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate), only the former isomer could be detected in extracts from either control or stimulated tissue slices. Similarly, [3H]inositol pentakis- and hexakis-phosphates were not detectable either in the presence or absence of carbachol under the radiolabelling conditions described. 7. The catabolism of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 by cell-free preparations from cerebral cortex was also studied. 8. In the presence of Mg2+, [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 was specifically dephosphorylated via [3H]Ins(1,4)P2 and [3H]Ins(4)P to free [3H]inositol, whereas [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 was degraded via [3H]Ins(3,4)P2 and, to a lesser extent, via [3H]Ins(1,3)P2 to D- and/or L-[3H]Ins(1)P and [3H]inositol. 9. In the presence of EDTA, hydrolysis of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 was greater than or equal to 95% inhibited, whereas [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 was still degraded, but yielded only a single [3H]InsP2 identified as [3H]Ins(1,3)P2. 10. The significance of these observations with cell-free preparations is discussed in relation to the proportions of the separate isomeric [3H]inositol phosphates measured in stimulated tissue slices.

Abstract
A study of the enzyme activities that degrade Ins(1,3,4)P3 in rat brain showed that it was dephosphorylated primarily by a Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphomonoesterase to Ins(3,4)P2 and then to Ins(3)P by a 4-phosphomonoesterase. A less active enzyme activity with the properties of a 4-phosphomonoesterase that converted Ins(1,3,4)P3 to Ins(1,3)P2 was also detected. The inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphomonoesterase was separated from the 4-phosphomonoesterase and the inositol monophosphate phosphomonoesterase by chromatography on phosphocellulose, DE-52 anion exchange and hydroxylapatite columns. Kinetic characterization of the partially purified inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphomonoesterase indicated that both Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(1,4)P2 were substrates with apparent Km values of 0.9 microM and 0.7 microM, respectively. Either substrate was a competitive inhibitor of the other substrate and dephosphorylation of both substrates was directly inhibited by Li+ in an uncompetitive manner. These data strongly suggest that a single enzyme dephosphorylates both Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(1,4)P2. The 4-phosphomonoesterase that dephosphorylated Ins(3,4)P2 to Ins(3)P was insensitive to Mg2+ and Li+ and was probably the same enzyme that degraded Ins(1,3,4)P3 to Ins(1,3)P2. The isomeric configurations of the major inositol polyphosphates formed from the degradation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 were determined using 1H- and 31P-NMR spectroscopy, and confirmation of the structures assigned to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(3,4)P2 was obtained.

Abstract
We investigated early molecular mechanisms involved in the triggering of cytolytic responses in natural killer (NK) and lymphokine-activated (LAK) cells. When NK or LAK cells were conjugated to the sensitive target cells K562, an increased formation of both inositol monophosphate (IP1) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was detected. Target cells like Raji or Jok-1, which form conjugates with NK cells but are insensitive to NK lysis, did not elicit IP1 formation. Treatment of NK cells with interleukin 2 increased the basal turnover of inositol phosphates and enhanced the phosphatidyl inositol breakdown upon confrontation with sensitive targets. These finding indicate that hydrolysis of phosphatidyl inositols is associated with the signal which triggers the cytolytic response in NK and LAK cells. These events therefore constitute an early marker of the cytolytic activation.

Abstract
The mode of action of bombesin on amylase secretion was investigated in rat pancreatic acini. Bombesin induced a dose-dependent increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and cytosolic free Ca2+. The threshold concentration capable of inducing both effects was 0.1 nM and the half-maximal dose of the peptide for Ca2+ mobilization was approximately 0.6 nM. By contrast, amylase release was approximately 30 times more sensitive than inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production and Ca2+ mobilization to bombesin action, with 1 pM being the first stimulatory concentration and a half-maximal effect at approximately 20 pM. The ability of low bombesin doses to trigger enzyme secretion was unaffected by chelation of extracellular Ca2+ with EGTA. In order to test whether the stimulation of amylase release was truly a Ca2+-independent response, the intracellular Ca2+ stores were depleted by pretreating acini with EGTA plus ionomycin, the Ca2+ ionophore. Under these conditions bombesin was still capable of eliciting a significant twofold enhancement of the secretory activity. These results indicate that bombesin, an agonist thought to activate secretion mainly through mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, elicits amylase release at low concentrations, independently of a concomitant rise in cytosolic free Ca2+. The relevance of these findings to the physiological regulation of pancreatic exocrine secretion is discussed.

Effects of ATP on accumulation of inositol phosphates and Ca2+ mobilization were investigated in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. When the cells were stimulated with 30 microM ATP, a rapid and transient rise in intracellular Ca2+ concentration was observed. At the same time, ATP rapidly increased accumulation of inositol phosphates. The concentration-response curve for the ATP-induced Ca2+ mobilization was similar to that for inositol trisphosphate (IP3) accumulation. ATP exerted its maximal effects at 30 microM for either IP3 accumulation or Ca2+ mobilization. The order of the efficacy of the agonists for IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization at 100 microM was ATP greater than ADP greater than AMP approximately adenosine, AMP (100 microM) and adenosine (300 microM) failed to induce IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization. Although 100 microM GTP and 100 microM UTP also induced IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization, their efficacy was less than that of ATP. CTP (100 microM) induced a slight IP3 accumulation, but it did not induce Ca2+ mobilization. Nifedipine (10 microM), a Ca2+ channel antagonist, and theophylline (100 microM), a P1-purinergic receptor antagonist, failed to inhibit the ATP-induced IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization. The above two cellular responses induced by ATP were also observed in the Ca2+-depleted medium. ATP induced a rapid and transient accumulation of 1,4,5-IP3 (5s), followed by a slower accumulation of 1,3,4-IP3. These results suggest that ATP induces the formation of 1,4,5-IP3 through the P2-purinergic receptor and consequently promotes Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular storage sites in cultured adrenal chromaffin cells.

Abstract
The involvement of G regulatory proteins in muscarinic receptor signal transduction was examined in electrically permeabilized rat submandibular acinar cells. The guanine nucleotide analog, GTP gamma S, caused the dose dependent hydrolysis of membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to release IP3. This response was insensitive to pertussis toxin treatment and was duplicated by NaF but not by GDP beta S. Enhanced IP3 synthesis was observed with a combination of GTP gamma S and carbachol. Exogenous IP3, as well as carbachol and GTP gamma S, provoked the release of sequestered 45Ca2+ from non-mitochondrial stores. In intact cells, carbachol significantly reduced the level of cyclic AMP induced by the beta-adrenergic agonist, isoproterenol, to 69% of its normal value. Pertussis toxin abolished this inhibitory action of carbachol on cyclic nucleotide levels. These results suggest that muscarinic receptors are coupled to two separate G regulatory proteins in submandibular mucous acini-the pertussis toxin-insensitive Gp of the phosphoinositide transduction pathway associated with elevated cytosolic calcium levels, and the pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi inhibitory protein of the adenylate cyclase complex.

Abstract
1. The activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase in subcellular fractions of smooth muscles of the pig coronary artery was examined. 2. Incubation of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) with muscle homogenates produced more polar 3H-radioactivity (probably as inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, IP4) than IP3, in the Mg2+- and ATP-dependent manner, thereby indicating the presence of IP3 3-kinase activity in homogenates of the muscle. 3. Most of the kinase activity was present in the cytosol fraction. The enzyme activity was reversibly activated by Ca2+ with a half-maximal effective concentration of 2.5 x 10(-7) M. 4. The calmodulin antagonists, W-7 and chlorpromazine inhibited the Ca2+-activated enzyme activity.

Abstract
Muscarinic stimulation of fluid secretion by mammalian salivary acinar cells is associated with a rise in the level of intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) and activation of a calcium-sensitive potassium (K+) conductance in the basolateral membrane. To test in the intact cell whether the rise of [Ca2+]i precedes activation of the K+ conductance (as expected if Ca2+ is the intracellular messenger mediating this response), [Ca2+]i and membrane voltage were measured simultaneously in carbachol-stimulated rat parotid acinar cells by using fura-2 and an intracellular microelectrode. Unexpectedly, the cells hyperpolarize (indicating activation of the K+ conductance) before fura-2 detectable [Ca2+]i begins to rise. This occurs even in Ca2+-depleted medium where intracellular stores are the only source of mobilized Ca2+. Nevertheless, when the increase in [Ca2+]i was eliminated by loading cells with the Ca2+ chelator bis(2-amino-5-methylphenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetate (Me2BAPTA) and stimulating in Ca2+-depleted medium, membrane hyperpolarization was also eliminated, indicating that a rise of [Ca2+] is required for the agonist-induced voltage response. Stimulation of Me2BAPTA-loaded cells in Ca2+-containing medium dramatically accentuates the temporal dissociation between the activation of the K+ conductance and the rise of [Ca2+]i. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that muscarinic stimulation results in a rapid localized increase in [Ca2+]i at the acinar basolateral membrane followed by a somewhat delayed increase in total [Ca2+]i. The localized increase cannot be detected by fura-2 but is sufficient to open the Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels located in the basolateral membrane. We concluded that a receptor-mobilized intracellular store of Ca2+ is localized at or near the basolateral membrane.

Abstract
Binding of chemoattractants to specific cell surface receptors on human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) initiates a variety of biologic responses, including directed migration (chemotaxis), release of superoxide anions, and lysosomal enzyme secretion. Chemoattractant receptors belong to a large class of receptors which utilize the hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides to initiate Ca2+ mobilization and cellular activation. Receptor occupancy leads to phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) yielding inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and 1,2 sn-diacylglycerol (DAG). These products synergize to initiate cell activation via calcium mobilization (IP3) and protein kinase C activation (DAG). Pertussis toxin, which ADP-ribosylates and inactivates some GTP binding proteins (G proteins), abolishes all chemoattractant-induced responses, including Ca2+ mobilization, IP3 and DAG production, enzyme secretion, superoxide production and chemotaxis. Direct evidence for chemoattractant receptor: G protein coupling was obtained using PMN membrane preparations which contain a Ca2+-sensitive phospholipase C. Hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides at resting intracellular Ca2+ levels (100 nm) was only observed when the membranes were stimulated with the chemoattractant N-formyl-methyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe) in the presence of GTP. Myeloid cells contain two distinct pertussis toxin substrates of similar molecular weight (40 and 41 kD). The 41 kD substrate resembles Gi, whereas a 40 kD substrate is physically associated with a partially purified fMet-Leu-Phe receptor preparation and may therefore represent a novel G protein involved in chemoattractant-stimulated responses. Metabolism of 1,4,5-IP3 to inositol proceeds via two distinct pathways in PMNs: (1) degradation to 1,4-IP2 and 4-IP1 or (2) conversion to 1,3,4,5-IP4, 1,3,4-IP3, 3,4-IP2 and 3-IP1. Initial formation (0-30 s) of 1,4,5-IP3 and DAG occurs at ambient intracellular Ca2+ levels, whereas formation of 1,3,4-IP3 and a second sustained phase of DAG production (30 s-10 min) require elevated cytosolic Ca2+ influx. The later peak of DAG, which is not derived from phosphoinositides, appears to be required for stimulation of respiratory burst activity. Products formed during activation can feed back to attenuate chemoattractant receptor-mediated stimulation of phospholipase C by uncoupling receptor-G protein-phospholipase C interaction.

Abstract
ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport was investigated in a rat parotid microsomal-membrane preparation enriched in endoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ uptake, in KCl medium, was rapid, linear with time up to 20 s, and unaffected by the mitochondrial inhibitors NaN3 and oligomycin. This Ca2+ uptake followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and was of high affinity (Km approximately 38 nM) and high capacity (approximately 30 nmol/min per mg of protein). In the presence of oxalate, Ca2+ uptake continued to increase for at least 5 min, reaching an intravesicular accumulation approx. 10 times higher than without oxalate. Ca2+ uptake was dependent on univalent cations in the order K+ = Na+ greater than trimethylammonium+ greater than mannitol and univalent anions in the order Cl- greater than acetate- greater than Br- = gluconate- = NO3- greater than SCN-. Ca2+ uptake was not elevated if membranes were incubated in the presence of a lipophilic anion (NO3-) and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone. Ca2+ transport was altered by changes in the K+-diffusion potential of the membranes. A relatively negative K+-diffusion potential increased the initial rate of Ca2+ accumulation, whereas a relatively positive potential decreased Ca2+ accumulation. In the presence of an outwardly directed K+ gradient, nigericin had no effect on Ca2+ uptake. In aggregate, these studies suggest that the ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport mechanism present in rat parotid microsomal membranes exhibits an electrogenic Ca2+ flux which requires the movement of other ions for charge compensation.

Abstract
Fixatives that contain methanol extract an unknown compound from several tissues including the retinas of squid (Loligo). We have determined that the compound probably contains (1) a myo-inositol ring that is phosphorylated in more than one position (including at the 5-hydroxyl), (2) a charged moiety that is not susceptible to alkaline phosphatase, and (3) a methyl group. We have found that the compound can be made by treating either phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate or human red cell ghosts with acidic methanol. We have confirmed the observation of Lips, Bross & Majerus [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 85, 88-92] that the compound also can be made by methanolysis of inositol (cyclic 1:2,4,5)trisphosphate; however, we have not found inositol (cyclic 1:2,4,5)trisphosphate in either stimulated or unstimulated squid retinas. We tentatively identify the compound as (1-methylphosphoryl)inositol 4,5-bisphosphate formed by methanolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. By using this methanolysis to incorporate label from [14C]methanol, we have estimated the mass of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in squid retinas to be approx. 30 mumol/l of retinal volume.

Abstract
We observed that more total inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) was formed when human platelets were stimulated with agonists (15-hydroxy-9,11-azo-prosta-5,13-dienoic acid or thrombin) in the presence of extracellular Ca2+ than in its absence. Analysis of the InsP3 by h.p.l.c. indicated that the increased InsP3 formed in the presence of extracellular Ca2+ was primarily the 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3]. In addition, more inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4) was formed in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Experiments conducted with electrically permeabilized platelets demonstrated that conversion of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 to [3H]InsP4 in platelets was Ca2+-dependent, with half-maximal conversion observed at approx. 2.5 microM-Ca2+. By contrast, dephosphorylation of [3H]InsP4 to [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 was not activated by Ca2+. A partially purified preparation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase from human platelets was found to be insensitive to Ca2+, but addition of calmodulin restored Ca2+-sensitivity to the kinase, increasing its activity about 5-fold. These results show that in human platelets the metabolism of Ins(1,4,5)P3 is regulated by Ca2+-calmodulin, and suggest that the metabolites of Ins(1,4,5)P3 may also have important second-messenger functions in platelets, and are consistent with the hypothesis that the activation of phospholipase C is not dependent on extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
myo-[3H]Inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate can be made from myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in a rat brain homogenate or soluble fraction. Although D-myo-inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate can be phosphorylated by a soluble rat brain enzyme to give myo-inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate, it is not an intermediate in the pathway from myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The intermediates in the above pathway are myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and myo-inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate [Shears, Parry, Tang, Irvine, Michell & Kirk (1987) Biochem. J. 246, 139-147; Balla, Guillemette, Baukal & Catt (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 9952-9955], and it is catalysed by soluble kinase activities of similar anion-exchange mobility and Mr value. Compounds with chromatographic and chemical properties consistent with the structures myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, myo-inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate and myo-inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate are present in avian erythrocytes, human 1321 N1 astrocytoma cells and primary-cultured murine bone-marrow-derived macrophages. The amounts of these inositol tetrakisphosphates rise upon muscarinic cholinergic stimulation of the astrocytoma cells or stimulation of macrophages with platelet-activating factor.

Abstract
After the initial discovery of receptor-linked generation of inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) it was generally assumed that Ins(1,4,5)P3 and its proposed breakdown products inositol(1,4)bisphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2) and Ins1P, along with cyclic inositol monophosphate, were the only inositol phosphates found in significant amounts in animal cells. Since then, three levels of complexity have been introduced. Firstly, Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be phosphorylated to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, and the subsequent metabolism of these two compounds has been found to be intricate and probably different between various tissues. The functions of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 are almost certainly to regulate cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, but the reasons for the labyrinth of the metabolic pathways after their deactivation by a specific 5-phosphatase remain obscure. Secondly, inositol pentakis- and hexakisphosphates have been found in many animal cells other than avian erythrocytes. It has been shown that their synthesis pathway is entirely separate from the inositol phosphates discussed above, both in terms of many of the isomers involved and probably in the subcellular localization; some possible functions of InsP5 and InsP6 are discussed here. Thirdly, cyclic inositol polyphosphates have been reported in stimulated tissues; the evidence for their occurrence in vivo and their possible physiological significance are also discussed.

Abstract
In rat parotid acinar cells prelabelled with [3H]inositol, substance P (100 nM) induced the formation of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. Ins(1,4,5)P3 reached a maximum 7 s after substance P stimulation, and thereafter decreased and reached a stable value at 60 s. When the cells were exposed to substance P for 10, 30, 60, or 300 s, washed, and re-exposed to this peptide, the formation of [3H]inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) was attenuated in a time-dependent manner. In the cells pretreated as described above, the number of [3H]substance-P-binding sites (Bmax) was also decreased. Possible role(s) of Ca2+ and protein kinase (protein kinase C) control mechanisms in regulating substance P responses were investigated. Desensitization of substance P-induced InsP3 was not affected by the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin, nor was it dependent on Ca2+ mobilization. On the other hand, in the presence of 4 beta-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-4 beta-phorbol 13-acetate, known activators of protein kinase C, substance P-induced InsP3 formation was inhibited. However, PDBu had no effect on [3H]substance P binding, whether present during the assay or when cells were pretreated. The persistent desensitization of InsP3 formation induced by substance P was not affected by PDBu. These results suggest that the persistent desensitization of InsP3 formation induced by substance P is a homologous process involving down-regulation of the substance P receptor; the mechanism does not appear to involve, or to be affected by, the Ca2+ or protein kinase C signalling systems. Protein kinase C activation can, however, inhibit substance P-induced InsP3 formation, which may indicate the presence of a negative-feedback control on the substance P pathway.

Abstract
1. The receptor-activated mechanisms that mediate the steroidogenic actions of angiotensin II (AII) have been characterized in rat and bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. In rat adrenal cells, the AII receptor is coupled to a guanine nucleotide inhibitory protein which reduces adenylate cyclase activity and cyclic AMP production. However, receptor-mediated stimulation of aldosterone production by AII is exerted through a separate pertussis-insensitive nucleotide regulatory protein that subserves coupling of activated receptors to phospholipase C. 2. In AII-stimulated glomerulosa cells, hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PIP2) by phospholipase C yields diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-P3), which act as second messengers by activating calcium-calmodulin and calcium-phospholipid dependent protein kinase pathways. Ins-1,4,5-P3 is a potent stimulus of intracellular calcium mobilization, and is promptly inactivated by two major routes of metabolism. Direct degradation of Ins-1,4,5-P3 by a 5-phosphatase gives inositol 1,4-bisphosphate which in turn is metabolized to inositol-4-monophosphate. The latter product can be derived only from higher inositol phosphates, and thus serves as a specific marker of polyphosphoinositide breakdown in agonist-stimulated cells. In contrast, inositol-1-phosphate is largely derived from phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, which is not increased during the initial phase of AII action. 3. Ins-1,4,5-P3 formed in AII-stimulated glomerulosa cells is also phosphorylated by a calcium-calmodulin dependent 3-kinase to form inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins-P4), which is rapidly dephosphorylated to the biologically inactive Ins-1,4,5-P3 isomer, Ins-1,3,4-trisphosphate. The latter metabolite, like Ins-1,4,5-P3, is both degraded to lower phosphates (Ins-3,4,P2 and Ins-1,3-P2) and phosphorylated to form a new tetrakisphosphate isomer (Ins-1,3,4,6-P4). Ins-1,4,5-P3 formed during AII action is bound with high affinity to specific intracellular receptors through which InsP3 causes calcium mobilization during the initiation of cellular responses to AII and other calcium-dependent ligands.

Abstract
Salivary gland fluid secretion following neurotransmitter stimulation is Ca2+-dependent. We have studied the control of cellular Ca2+ following secretory stimuli in rat parotid gland acinar cells. After muscarinic-cholinergic receptor activation, cytosolic Ca2+ is elevated 4-5 fold, due to both intracellular Ca2+ pool mobilization and extracellular Ca2+ entry. Fluid movement ensues due to the Ca2+-activated enhancement of membrane permeability to K+ and Cl-. Basal cytosolic Ca2+ levels are tightly controlled at approximately 150-200 nM through the action of high affinity and high capacity ATP-dependent Ca2+ transporters in the basolateral and endoplasmic reticulum membranes. Activity of these Ca2+ transporters can be modulated to facilitate rapid responsiveness and a sustained fluid secretory response necessary for alimentary function.

Abstract
The stimulation of phosphoinositide metabolism by angiotensin II (Ang II) was studied in [3H]inositol-labelled bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. After separation of the phosphoinositols by ion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography, it was shown that the formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) followed distinct kinetics. The first compound to increase upon stimulation with 10(-7) M Ang II was Ins(1,4,5)P3, which reached a maximum (250% of basal level) within 10 s. At lower concentrations of Ang II, this response was slower. The formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 depended upon the concentration of Ang II, with an EC50 of 2.4 +/- 1.5 X 10(-9) M Ang II. The potency of Ang II in stimulating the turnover of phosphoinositides and in increasing the biosynthesis of aldosterone was very similar, whereas the peptide was ten times more potent in its ability to mobilize Ca2+. Ang II was also able to stimulate the production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in permeabilized glomerulosa cells. This effect was mimicked by a non-hydrolysable analog of GTP (GTP gamma S), suggesting that a GTP binding protein is involved in the mechanism coupling the Ang II membrane receptor to phospholipase C. These results strengthen the view that Ins(1,4,5)P3 plays a key role as second messenger in the steroidogenic response to Ang II in adrenal glomerulosa cells.

Abstract
The generation of second messengers from the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) by phosphoinositidase C has been implicated in the mediation of cellular responses to a variety of growth factors and oncogene products. The first step in the production of PtdInsP2 from phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) is catalysed by PtdIns kinase. A PtdIns kinase activity has been found to associate specifically with several oncogene products, as well as with the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor. We have previously identified two biochemically distinct PtdIns kinases in fibroblasts, and have found that only one of these, designated type I, specifically associates with activated tyrosine kinases. We have now characterized the site on the inositol ring phosphorylated by type I PtdIns kinase, and find that this kinase specifically phosphorylates the D-3 ring position to generate a novel phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P). In contrast, the main PtdIns kinase in fibroblasts, designated type II, specifically phosphorylates the D-4 position to produce phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P), previously considered to be the only form of PtdInsP. We have also tentatively identified PtdIns(3)P as a minor component of total PtdInsP in intact fibroblasts. We propose that type I PtdIns kinase is responsible for the generation of PtdIns(3)P in intact cells, and that this novel phosphoinositide could be important in the transduction of mitogenic and oncogenic signals.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase, which phosphorylates InsP3 to form inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, was purified to apparent homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and sequential chromatographic steps on DEAE-sepharose, calmodulin-Affi-Gel and DEAE-5PW h.p.l.c. The purified enzyme had a specific activity of 24.4 nmol of inositol tetrakisphosphate formed/min per mg of protein, which represented a purification of approx. 195-fold with a 0.29% recovery, compared with the cytosol fraction of the muscle. SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis showed a single protein-staining band of Mr 93,000. Moreover, the major protein peak, of Mr 84,000, was detected by TSK gel G3000SW gel-permeation chromatography of the purified sample. As this value was approximately consistent with the Mr determined by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoretic analysis, the InsP3 3-kinase might be a monomeric enzyme. The purified enzyme had a Km for InsP3 of 0.4 microM, with an optimum pH range of 5.8-7.7. The enzyme was maximally activated by calmodulin, with a stoichiometry of 1:1.

Abstract
This work was designed to investigate the effects of a P2 purinoreceptor agonist, alpha, beta-methylene ADP, on membrane polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in relation to insulin release from rat isolated islets of Langerhans. The effects of this stable structural analogue of ADP (10(-4) M) were compared with those of a muscarinic cholinergic agonist, carbachol (10(-4) M). The interaction between alpha, beta-methylene ADP and carbachol was studied on polyphosphoinositide breakdown and insulin secretion. The experiments were performed in presence of a slightly stimulating glucose concentration (8.3 mM). Whereas carbachol-induced insulin release was accompanied by a concomitant increase in inositol phosphates accumulation, alpha, beta-methylene ADP at the same concentration produced a similar insulin secretion without eliciting an accumulation of inositol phosphates. The combined effect of both substances added simultaneously resulted in a significant increase in insulin release as compared with the secretion induced by either substance used separately. By contrast, the accumulation of inositol phosphates induced by both substances was not different from the accumulation induced by carbachol alone. These results seem to rule out the involvement of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in the coupling mechanism between P2 purinoreceptor activation and insulin response of the B cell. Moreover, purinergic stimulation appears not to interact with the effect of muscarinic stimulation on polyphosphoinositide breakdown.

Abstract
The separation of myo-inositol phosphates by ion pair, reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography has been investigated. The retention of the inositol phosphates is dependent on both the polarity of the hetaeron utilized and on the pH of the solvent. A method is presented which permits the isocratic separation of multiple forms of inositol phosphates including isomers of myo-inositol trisphosphate. This method appears to be superior to the anion exchange based systems currently employed because of smaller retention volumes, the low ionic strength of the solvent employed, the absence of a requirement for reequilibration, and the ability to perform separations isocratically.

Abstract
When myo-[3H]inositol-prelabelled primary-cultured murine bone-marrow-derived macrophages were challenged with platelet-activating factor (PAF; 200 ng/ml), there was a rapid (2.5-fold at 10 s) rise in the intracellular concentration of D-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, followed by a rise in myo-[3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate. myo-[3H]Inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions were isolated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography from myo-[3H]inositol-prelabelled chick erythrocytes and primary-cultured macrophages. In both cases [3H]iditol and [3H]inositol were the only significant products (greater than 90% of recovered radioactivity) after oxidation to completion with periodic acid, reduction with NaBH4 and dephosphorylation with alkaline phosphatase. The presence of [3H]inositol after this procedure is consistent with the occurrence of [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate in the cell extracts, whereas [3H]iditol could only be derived from D- or L-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate. When [3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions obtained from (A) unstimulated macrophages, (B) macrophages that had been stimulated with PAF for 40s or (C) chick erythrocytes were subjected to the above procedure, radioactivity was recovered in these polyols in the following proportions: A, 60-90% in iditol, with 10-40% in inositol; B, total radioactivity increased by a factor of 9.8, 94% being recovered in inositol and 8% in iditol; C, 70-80% in iditol and 20-30% in inositol. [3H]Iditol derived from myo-[3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions from macrophages and chick erythrocytes was oxidized to sorbose by L-iditol dehydrogenase (L-iditol:NAD+2-oxidoreductase, 1.1.1.14) at the same rate as authentic L-iditol. D-[14C]Iditol, derived from D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, was not oxidized by L-iditol dehydrogenase. This result indicates that the [3H]iditol was derived from L-myo-inositol inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate. The data are consistent with rapid PAF-sensitive synthesis of D-myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate in macrophages, and demonstrate that L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate is synthesized in both mammalian and avian cells. The levels of L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate in primary-cultured macrophages are not acutely sensitive to PAF.

Abstract
alpha 1-Adrenoceptor stimulation of rat left ventricular papillary muscles by phenylephrine in the presence of propranolol resulted in rapid breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI-4,5-P2) and a triphasic inotropic response in a concentration-dependent manner. The release of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was maximum within 30 seconds and remained high for at least 30 minutes. The IP3 formation was associated with a rapid, but small, increase in contractile force followed by a transient decline in the contractility prior to the development of a sustained and more pronounced positive inotropic response. Inhibition of PI-4,5-P2 hydrolysis by the alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist prazosin or the PI-4,5-P2 phosphodiesterase inhibitor neomycin blocked all components of the inotropic responses. Combined addition of 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid, a competitive inhibitor of IP3 phosphatase, with phenylephrine doubled the IP3 formation and potentiated the initial phases of inotropic responses but had no effect on the sustained positive inotropic response. Nifedipine and Mn2+ did not block the transient inotropic responses but inhibited the sustained positive inotropic response. alpha 1-Adrenoceptor stimulation resulted in restoration of slow responses in the high K+-depolarized muscles in the time course similar to that of the development in the sustained positive inotropic response. Addition of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate alone or in combination with caffeine or A23187 failed to produce a sustained positive inotropic effect, but pretreatment with this phorbol ester (1-100 nM) for 30 minutes resulted in dose-dependent potentiation of alpha 1-adrenoceptor-mediated sustained positive inotropic effect associated with enhanced slow responses. These results suggest that the inotropic effects mediated by cardiac alpha 1-adrenoceptor stimulation occur through the phosphodiesteratic cleavage of PI-4,5-P2, such that IP3 may produce transient inotropic effects by mobilizing intracellular Ca2+, while diacylglycerol, along with cofactors that are also generated on alpha 1-adrenoceptor stimulation, may provoke a sustained positive inotropic effect by potentiating slow Ca2+ channels through activation of protein kinase C.

Abstract
In analyzing the 31P NMR spectra of extracts of mammalian tissues and cells we have identified inositol pentakis- and hexakis-phosphates in essentially all of the samples examined. These compounds were present at concentrations of at least 5-15 microM. While the sources and functions of these compounds in mammalian cells are not clear, they may play an important role in phosphoinositol metabolism. For example, one obvious possibility is that these compounds may be sources of or sinks for the Ca++ mobilizing inositol tris- and tetrakis-phosphates.
