Abstract
Arachidonic acid and its metabolites are important cellular mediators. In this study, we report a novel role for arachidonic acid in vascular cell signaling. We tested the effects of exogenous arachidonic acid on protein tyrosine phosphorylation in cultured vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells. Arachidonic acid stimulated the phosphorylation of tyrosine-containing proteins of approximately 58, 93, and 120 kDa in the three cell types studied. This response was dose dependent, with a maximum effect observed with 40 microM arachidonic acid. Phosphorylation was rapid and transient, reaching a peak 0.5 min after the addition of arachidonic acid and returning to baseline by 8 min. A common set of protein substrates was phosphorylated in smooth muscle cells treated with the Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonist endothelin, concomitant with an increase in endogenous unesterified arachidonic acid. To determine whether the protein tyrosine phosphorylation was due to arachidonic acid or to a metabolite, we used inhibitors of cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, and epoxygenase pathways. Ibuprofen, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, eicosatriynoic and eicosatetraynoic acids, and 8-methoxypsoralen failed to inhibit the arachidonic acid-mediated response. We also found increased protein tyrosine phosphorylation after treatment with oleic, linolenic and gamma-linoleic acid. These results suggest a mechanism of protein tyrosine phosphorylation that is directly stimulated by unmetabolized unsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract
In rat liver epithelial cell lines (WB or GN4), angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates cytosolic tyrosine kinase activity, in part, through a calcium-dependent mechanism. In other cell types, selected hormones that activate Gi- or Gq-coupled receptors stimulate the soluble tyrosine kinase, p125FAK. Immunoprecipitation of p125FAK from Ang II-activated GN4 cells demonstrated a doubling of p125FAK kinase activity. However, an additional Ang II-activated tyrosine kinase (or kinases) representing the majority of the total activity was detected when the remaining cell lysate, immunodepleted of p125FAK, was reimmunoprecipitated with an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. Cytochalasin D pretreatment blocks G-protein receptor-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation in Swiss 3T3 cells. While cytochalasin D decreased the Tyr(P) content of 65-75-kDa substrates in Ang II-treated GN4 cells, it did not diminish tyrosine phosphorylation of 115-130-kDa substrates, again suggesting activation of at least two tyrosine kinase pathways in GN4 cells. To search for additional Ang II-activated enzymes, we used molecular techniques to identify 20 tyrosine kinase sequences in these cell lines. None was the major cytosolic enzyme activated by Ang II. Specifically, JAK2, which had been shown by others to be stimulated by Ang II in smooth muscle cells, was not activated by Ang II in GN4 cells. Finally, we purified Tyr(P)-containing tyrosine kinases from Ang II-treated cells, using anti-Tyr(P) and ATP affinity resins; 80% of the tyrosine kinase activity migrated as a single 115-120-kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein immunologically distinct from p125FAK. In summary, Ang II activates at least two separate tyrosine kinases in rat liver epithelial cells; p125FAK and a presumably novel, cytosolic 115-120-kDa protein referred to as the calcium-dependent tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
In GN4 rat liver epithelial cells, angiotensin II (Ang II) and other agonists which activate phospholipase C stimulate tyrosine kinase activity in a calcium-dependent, protein kinase C (PKC)-independent manner. Since Ang II also produces a proliferative response in these cells, we investigated downstream signaling elements traditionally linked to growth control by tyrosine kinases. First, Ang II, like epidermal growth factor (EGF), stimulated AP-1 binding activity in a PKC-independent manner. Because increases in AP-1 can reflect induction of c-Jun and c-Fos, we examined the activity of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family members Erk-1 and -2 and the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which are known to influence c-Jun and c-Fos transcription. Ang II stimulated MAP kinase (MAPK) activity but only approximately 50% as effectively as EGF; again, these effects were independent of PKC. Ang II also produced a 50- to 200-fold activation of JNK in a PKC-independent manner. Unlike its smaller effect on MAPK, Ang II was approximately four- to sixfold more potent in activating JNK than EGF was. Although others had reported a lack of calcium ionophore-stimulated JNK activity in lymphocytes and several other cell lines, we examined the role of calcium in GN4 cells. The following results suggest that JNK activation in rat liver epithelial cells is at least partially Ca(2+) dependent: (i) norepinephrine and vasopressin hormones that increase inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate stimulated JNK; (ii) both thapsigargin, a compound that produces an intracellular Ca(2+) signal, and Ca(2+) ionophores stimulated a dramatic increase in JNK activity (up to 200-fold); (iii) extracellular Ca(2+) chelation with ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (EGTA) inhibited JNK activation by ionophore and intracellular chelation with 1,2-bis-(o-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetraacetoxymethyl-ester (BAPTA-AM) partially inhibited JNK activation by Ang II or thapsigargin; and (iv) JNK activation by Ang II was inhibited by pretreatment of cells with thapsigargin and EGTA, a procedure which depletes intracellular Ca(2+) stores. JNK activation following Ang II stimulation did not involve calmodulin; either W-7 nor calmidizolium, in concentrations sufficient to inhibit Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II, blocked JNK activation by Ang II. In contrast, genistein, in concentrations sufficient to inhibit Ca(2+)-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation, prevented Ang II and thapsigargin-induced JNK activation. In summary, in GN4 rat liver epithelial cells, Ang II stimulates JNK via a novel Ca(2+)-dependent pathway. The inhibition by genistein suggest that Ca(2+)-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation may modulate the JNK pathway in a cell type-specific manner, particularly in cells with a readily detectable Ca(2+)-regulated tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
1. The release of prostacyclin (PGI2) from vascular endothelial cells is stimulated by ATP acting at G protein-coupled P2-purinoceptors. Here we investigate the hypothesis that tyrosine protein phosphorylations are involved in this response. 2. The use of Western blots with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies showed that 30 microM 2MeSATP (selective for P2Y-purinoceptors), 300 microM UTP (selective for P2U-purinoceptors) and 300 microM ATP (effective at both these purinoceptors), each stimulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in bovine cultured aortic endothelial cells. Each of these agonists also stimulates 6-keto PGF1 alpha accumulation in the medium (an index of PGI2 release) in these cells in the same period. 3. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein, inhibits the 6-keto PGF1 alpha response with the same concentration-dependency (1-100 microM) as the tyrosine phosphorylation response. 4. Tyrphostin, a structurally and functionally distinct tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is also a potent inhibitor (0.1-10 microM) of the 6-keto PGF1 alpha response. 5. Neither tyrphostin nor genistein inhibit the phospholipase C response to P2-purinoceptor stimulation. Furthermore, these inhibitors do not affect the 6-keto PGF1 alpha response to ionomycin. 6. These results show that the regulation of vascular endothelial cells by ATP acting at both P2Y- and P2U-purinoceptors involves the stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation, and suggest that this is a necessary event for the purinoceptor-mediated stimulation of PGI2 production.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (Ang-II) receptor engagement activates many immediate early response genes in both vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiomyocytes whether a hyperplastic or hypertrophic response is taking place. Although the signaling pathways stimulated by Ang-II in different cell lines have been widely characterized, the correlation between the generation of different second messengers and specific physiological responses remains relatively unexplored. In this study, we report how in both C2C12 quiescent myoblasts and differentiated myotubes Ang-II significantly stimulates AP1-driven transcription and c-Jun.c-Fos heterodimer DNA binding activity. Using a set of different protein kinase inhibitors, we could demonstrate that Ang-II-induced increase in AP1 binding is not mediated by the cAMP-dependent pathway and that both protein kinase C and tyrosine kinases are involved. The observation that in quiescent myoblasts Ang-II increase of AP1 binding and induction of DNA synthesis and, in differentiated myotubes, Ang-II stimulation of protein synthesis are abolished by the cysteine-derivative and glutathione precursor N-acetyl-L-cysteine strongly suggests a role for reactive oxygen intermediates in the intracellular transduction of Ang-II signals for immediate early gene induction, cell proliferation, and hypertrophic responses.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine kinase PYK2, which is highly expressed in the central nervous system, is rapidly phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in response to various stimuli that elevate the intracellular calcium concentration, as well as by protein kinase C activation. Activation of PYK2 leads to modulation of ion channel function and activation of the MAP kinase signalling pathway. PYK2 activation may provide a mechanism for a variety of short- and long-term calcium-dependent signalling events in the nervous system.

Abstract
This synopsis focuses on the role that tyrosine kinase pathways may play in the acute regulation of smooth muscle contractility by receptor-kinase-activating growth factors, such as epidermal growth factor-urogastrone (EGF-URO) and by G-protein-coupled agonists, such as angiotensin-II. Growth factor-activated response paradigms that modulate smooth muscle contractility are summarized and the parallels between the actions of G-protein-coupled agonists and growth factors in these response systems are pointed out. A possible dynamic interplay between tyrosine kinase and tyrosine phosphatase activities to modulate tissue tension is also hypothesized. Finally, a model is proposed, wherein an intermediary tyrosine kinase pathway is suggested as a point of convergence for the regulation of smooth muscle contractility by agonists as diverse as EGF-URO and angiotensin-II.

Abstract
Signaling cascades elicited by angiotensin II resemble those characteristic of growth factor stimulation. In this report, we demonstrate that angiotensin II converges with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) beta-receptor signaling cascades, independent of PDGF. Stimulation of smooth muscle cells with angiotensin II resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation on Shc proteins and subsequent complex formation between Shc and growth factor receptor binding protein-2 (GRB2). A 180-kDa protein co-precipitating with Shc.GRB2 complexes also demonstrated increased phosphorylation in response to angiotensin II. Immunoblot analyses and proteolytic digests failed to distinguish this 180-kDa protein from authentic PDGF beta-receptors. Corresponding with Shc and PDGF receptor phosphorylation induced by angiotensin II was the recruitment and phosphorylation of c-Src. Autocrine release of platelet-derived growth factor failed to account for Shc complex formation at the PDGF receptor following angiotensin II treatment, and a specific angiotensin II type I receptor antagonist, losartan, abolished the response. These results support a novel model for cross-talk between the G-protein-linked angiotensin II receptor and the PDGF receptor tyrosine kinase in vascular smooth muscle cells. Communication with the PDGF receptor may account for the ability of angiotensin II to elicit responses typical of growth factor signal transduction.

Abstract
Calcium is a potent mitogen and transmodulator of growth factor receptor activity, but does not activate tyrosine kinases in ligand-deprived cells (Epstein et al. 1992) Cell Growth Different. 3, 157-164). In this study the mitogenic and transcriptional effects of increased extracellular calcium and ionophore are shown to be identical in 3T3 cells, consistent with mediation of these effects via increased intracellular calcium availability. Near-maximal mitogenic and transcriptional effects are seen after brief exposure to increased extracellular calcium or ionophore, while additive effects occur with co-administration of calcium and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Exposure of PDGF-primed cells to calcium or ionophore is associated with a substantial enhancement of receptor tyrosine autophosphorylation which is abrogated by calcium channel blockade or intracellular calcium chelation. In contrast, pretreatment of quiescent cells with calcium or ionophore significantly diminishes subsequent PDGF-inducible receptor autophosphorylation. Intracellular calcium thus appears to potentiate the kinase activity of ligand-stimulated PDGF receptors while inhibiting ligand-inducible activation of unstimulated receptors. These findings suggest a model of receptor tyrosine kinase regulation involving calcium-dependent positive and negative feedback loops which vary with the activation state of the receptor.

Abstract
To investigate membrane lipid metabolism during smooth-muscle activation, the role of phospholipase D (PLD) in the production of phosphatidate (PA) was studied in rat small arteries stimulated with noradrenaline. Incubation with [3H]myristate preferentially labelled phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho), and in the presence of 0.5% ethanol [3H]phosphatidylethanol ([3H]PEt) was formed, demonstrating PLD activity. Noradrenaline (NA) stimulation resulted in an increase in PtdCho derived [3H]PA and [3H]PEt formation, indicating PLD activation. Stimulation of [14C]choline release confirmed PLD-mediated hydrolysis of PtdCho. Propranolol, an inhibitor of PA phosphohydrolase, increased [3H]PA levels in non-stimulated tissue and decreased the rate of degradation of both [3H]PA and [3H]PEt, implying that this is an active route for PA metabolism in small arteries. However, [3H]diacylglycerol levels were not increased during NA stimulation. Fluoroaluminate increased [3H]PEt formation and [14C]choline release, whereas high K+ in the presence of alpha 1-adrenoceptor blockade did not. Pervanadate increased phosphotyrosine levels in small arteries, and markedly stimulated [3H]PEt formation and [14C]choline release. The combination of pervanadate and NA stimulation resulted in a dramatic increase in [3H]PEt formation, which was greater than the sum of the individual responses to the two agonists. Pervanadate and fluoroaluminate in combination appeared to give an additive response, whereas high K+ did not alter the pervanadate-induced formation of [3H]PEt. Phosphotyrosine levels were increased by NA in the presence of tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors. This effect was blocked by genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. These data demonstrate that in NA-stimulated small arteries PLD-induced PtdCho hydrolysis contributes to accumulation of PA, but not of diacylglycerol. Furthermore, regulation of PLD activity appears to require G-protein and tyrosine-phosphorylation-linked pathways.

Abstract
The activation of endothelial cells following exposure to a variety of receptor-dependent and -independent stimuli is associated with the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores as well as the influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular space. In the present study, we investigated the interaction between Ca2+ signaling in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells and tyrosine phosphorylation. Stimulation of endothelial cells with either bradykinin (100 nmol/L), histamine (1 mumol/L), or the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (30 nmol/L) resulted in a slightly delayed but prolonged tyrosine phosphorylation of two low molecular weight proteins (approximately 42 and approximately 44 kD). These proteins were identified by immunoprecipitation as the 42- and 44-kD isoforms of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase). The agonist-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the 42-/44-kD doublet was sensitive to the tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein (100 mumol/L) and piceatannol (10 mumol/L) and was inhibited by the removal of Ca2+ from the extracellular medium. In fura 2-loaded endothelial cells, inhibition of tyrosine kinases attenuated Ca2+ signaling after stimulation with either bradykinin (30 nmol/L) or thapsigargin (30 nmol/L). Since inhibition of tyrosine kinases specifically attenuates the plateau phase of the Ca2+ response after stimulation, the effect of tyrosine kinase inhibition appeared to be mostly associated with the influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular space.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Addition of guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) to streptolysin O-permeabilized Swiss 3T3 cells induced tyrosine phosphorylation of M(r) 110,000-130,000 and 70,000-80,000 bands. Specifically, GTP gamma S stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of both focal adhesion kinase (p125FAK) and paxillin. GTP gamma S induced tyrosine phosphorylation was dose-dependent (EC50 of 2.5 microM) and reached maximum levels after 1.5 min for the M(r) 110,000-130,000 band and 2 min for the M(r) 70,000-80,000 paxillin band. Guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) inhibited GTP gamma S-induced tyrosine phosphorylation with an IC50 of 100 microM. Protein kinase C did not mediate GTP gamma S-induced tyrosine phosphorylation. Varying the Ca2+ concentration from 0 to 6 microM did not increase tyrosine phosphorylation above basal levels and did not affect the ability of GTP gamma S to induce tyrosine phosphorylation. GTP gamma S was able to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation in the presence of nanomolar concentrations of Mg2+. Furthermore, 30 microM AlF4- only weakly induced tyrosine phosphorylation in permeabilized cells. Pretreatment with the Clostridium botulinum C3 exoenzyme which inactivates p21rho, markedly reduced the ability of GTP gamma S to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of M(r) 110,000-130,000 and 70,000-80,000 bands including p125FAK and paxillin in permeabilized Swiss 3T3 cells. Furthermore, a peptide of p21rho (p21rho17-44) inhibited GTP gamma S-induced tyrosine phosphorylation in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 1 microM). This peptide also inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK and paxillin. In contrast, 20 microM p21ras17-44 peptide failed to inhibit GTP gamma S-induced tyrosine phosphorylation. Using permeabilized cells, our findings demonstrate that GTP gamma S stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK and paxillin and that a functional p21rho is implicated in this process.

Abstract
Murine N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells are shown to express a single class of angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors that display all the pharmacological properties defining the Ang II receptor subtype 2 (AT2): high affinity for 125I-labelled AT2-selective agonist CGP 42112 (Kd 91 +/- 19 pM); expected rank order of potency (CGP 42112 = (Sar1,Ile8)Ang II > or = Ang II > PD 123319 >> DUP 753) for several Ang II analogues; increased binding in the presence of the reducing reagent dithiothreitol (DTT); and insensitivity to analogues of GTP. Molecular cloning of cDNA encoding AT2 receptors from N1E-115 cells reveals nucleotide sequence identity with the AT2 subtype expressed in fetal tissue. Murine AT2 receptors transiently expressed in COS cells display the same pharmacological profile as endogenous Ang II receptors of N1E-115 cells. Taken together, these data reveal the exclusive presence of the AT2 receptor subtype in N1E-115 cells. Incubation of N1E-115 cells with Ang II leads to a marked decrease in the level of tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins with apparent molecular masses of 80, 97, 120, 150 and 180 kDa respectively. Tyrosine dephosphorylation of the same set of proteins is observed after treatment with the AT2-specific agonist CGP 42112. The response to both effectors is rapid and transient, showing a maximum between 5 and 10 min, and returning to basal levels after 20-30 min. In both cases, tyrosine dephosphorylation can be prevented by co-incubation with an excess of the antagonist Sarile. These data thus establish that AT2 receptor activation leads to protein tyrosine dephosphorylation in N1E-115 cells, and support a possible role for AT2 receptors in the negative regulation of cell proliferation.

Abstract
Many hypertrophic stimuli such as angiotensin II (Ang II) activate phospholipases through G protein-coupled receptors in cardiac myocytes. However, it is not known whether these stimuli also activate the tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent signaling pathway, which plays an essential role in growth factor-induced mitogenic responses in other cell types. Serine/threonine kinases such as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and 90-kD S6 kinase (RSK) are activated in response to many growth stimuli and are important downstream signaling pathways of tyrosine kinases. Therefore, we examined whether Ang II activates these protein kinases in primary cultures of cardiac myocytes and fibroblasts from neonatal rats. Ang II rapidly induced tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, including 42-, 44-, 75- to 80-, and 120- to 130-kD proteins, in both cardiac myocytes and fibroblasts. This was accompanied by an increase in tyrosine kinase activity. The 42- and 44-kD proteins were immunologically related to an extracellular signal-regulated kinase family (MAP kinases). Ang II rapidly increased kinase activity of MAP kinases and their downstream kinase, RSK. The Ang II-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of MAP kinases and RSK were AT1 receptor-mediated. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or an increase in intracellular Ca2+ by the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 was sufficient to cause tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins and activation of MAP kinase and RSK. Although downregulation of PKC did not suppress Ang II-induced activation of MAP kinase and RSK, chelating intracellular Ca2+ by BAPTA-AM completely abolished Ang II-induced activation of these kinases. Activation of MAP kinases and RSK was also observed in myocytes stimulated with other agonists for Gq protein-coupled receptors, such as phenylephrine, norepinephrine, and endothelin 1, but not with agonists to Gs protein-coupled receptors, such as isoproterenol. These results suggest that Ang II and other hypertrophic stimuli, known to act through Gq protein-coupled receptors, rapidly cause tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular substrates through activation of tyrosine kinase and activate MAP kinases and RSK in cardiac myocytes as well as in cardiac fibroblasts. Furthermore, intracellular Ca2+, rather than PKC, seems to be critical for Ang II-induced activation of these protein kinases in cardiac myocytes.

Abstract
1. The contractile actions of vanadate (VO4) and pervanadate (PV, peroxide(s) of vanadate) were studied in rat gastric longitudinal muscle strips and in aortic rings. The roles of extracellular sodium and calcium were evaluated and the potential effects of nerve-released agonists were considered. The possibility that these responses were due to the potentiation of tyrosine kinase activity, as a result of PV-mediated tyrosine phosphatase inhibition was explored with the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (genistein, tyrphostin) and by Western blot analysis of phosphotyrosyl proteins in PV-treated tissues. The ability of PV to mimic the action of the tyrosine kinase receptor-associated agonist, epidermal growth factor-urogastrone (EGF-Uro), in the gastric preparation was also studied. 2. PV caused concentration-dependent contractions in both gastric and aorta-derived tissues, with a potency that was 1 to 2 orders of magnitude greater than that of VO4. 3. Although repeated exposure of gastric and aortic tissues to a fixed concentration of VO4 caused reproducible contractions in both tissues, repeated exposure of gastric tissue to PV caused an increased contractile response plateauing after 3 exposures. In contrast, a single exposure of aortic tissue to PV (20 microM) caused a prolonged desensitization of the tissue to the subsequent contractile actions of PV or other agonists. 4. The contractile responses to PV were unaffected in both preparations by tetrodotoxin, atropine, yohimbine and phenoxybenzamine; and in the aortic preparation, the responses to VO4 and PV were the same in the presence or absence of a functional endothelium. 5. PV-induced contractions in both tissues were observed in the absence of extracellular sodium but required extracellular calcium and were attenuated by 1 micro M nifedipine.6. In the gastric preparation, the characteristics of the contractile actions of PV paralleled those of EGF-Uro in terms of (1) inhibition by genistein, (2) inhibition by indomethacin and (3) a requirement for extracellular calcium. These response characteristics differed from those of other contractile agonists such as carbachol.7. In both the gastric and aortic preparations genistein was able to inhibit PV-induced contractions selectively without causing comparable inhibition of KCI-induced contractions. Tyrphostin (AG18) also selectively blocked PV-induced contractions in the gastric, but not in the aortic preparation.8. In both the gastric and aortic tissue, in step with an increased contractile response, PV caused increases in tissue phosphotyrosyl protein content, as detected by Western blot analysis using a monoclonal antiphosphotyrosine antibody; the increases in phosphotyrosyl protein content were reduced when tissues were treated with PV at the same time as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.9 PV, at sub-contractile concentrations, potentiated the contractile action of angiotensin II in both the gastric and aorta tissue.10 We conclude that the growth factor-mimetic agent, PV, is a much more potent contractile agonist than V04 in both vascular and gastric smooth muscle tissue. PV can cause enhanced tissue phosphotyrosyl protein content most likely via the inhibition of tissue protein tyrosine phosphatases. The contractile actions of PV, which require extracelullar calcium and are independent of extracellular sodium, would appear not to be due either to Na+/Ca2" exchange, promoted by Na+/K+-ATPase inhibition or to the inhibition of Ca2+-ATPase and might be best explained by the ability of PV, via tyrosine phosphatase inhibition, to potentiate a tyrosine kinase pathway linked to calcium entry and to the contractile process.

Abstract
Proliferation of the rat intestinal epithelial cell-line, RIE-1, has previously been shown to be stimulated by certain polypeptide growth factors acting via receptors that possess intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. In this study, we show that the octapeptide hormone angiotensin II (AII), apparently acting through the AT1 G-protein-coupled receptor, is also a mitogen for RIE-1 cells. Maximal stimulation of DNA synthesis and cellular proliferation occurred at an AII concentration of 10-100 nM, with half-maximal stimulation at 1 nM. The mitogenic response to AII was completely inhibited by the AT1 angiotensin-receptor antagonist, DuP753, but not by the AT2-receptor antagonist, PD123319. The early signalling responses activated by AII in RIE-1 cells include increased production of inositol phosphates, a transient increase in the intracellular concentration of free calcium, an activation of protein kinase C, and a rapid change in the pattern of cellular protein-tyrosine phosphorylation. These results implicate an activation of the inositol lipid signalling pathway via the AT1 receptor subtype in the AII-stimulated mitogenic response of this normal epithelial cell line.

Abstract
When intracellular Ca2+ pools are released during platelet stimulation by thrombin, elevation of platelet cytosolic Ca2+ concentration induces tyrosine phosphorylation of a 130 kDa protein, and refilling the pools mediates dephosphorylation of this protein [Vostal, Jackson and Shulman (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 16911-16916]. In the present work the 130 kDa protein was identified as vinculin by the following criteria. (1) It is detected on protein immunoblots of thrombin-activated platelets by both monoclonal anti-phosphotyrosine and anti-vinculin antibodies. (2) Removal of N-linked sugars with peptide-N-glycosidase or reduction did not change the molecular mass of vinculin or of the 130 kDa protein on SDS/PAGE. (3) The 130 kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein associates with Triton-soluble fraction of platelets as does vinculin. (4) The 130 kDa protein immunoprecipitated by anti-vinculin monoclonal antibody reacts with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody; when immunoprecipitated by anti-phosphotyrosine antibody it reacts with anti-vinculin antibody. (5) The 130 kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein and vinculin focus isoelectrically at pI 5.4-5.8. Our finding that vinculin is a major platelet protein that undergoes Ca(2+)-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation during platelet activation may provide clues to the function of this protein.

Abstract
Activation of the G-protein-coupled muscarinic (M3) receptor in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells is known to lead to phosphoinositol hydrolysis and noradrenaline release. In this study, the effect of carbachol on tyrosine phosphorylation and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity in SH-SY5Y cells was examined. Carbachol concentration-dependently induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, including one of 42 kDa. This tyrosine-phosphorylated 42 kDa protein co-eluted from a Mono Q anion-exchange column with MAP kinase activity and with immunologically detected MAP kinase. Stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of MAP kinase were also observed after incubation of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Down-regulation or inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) abolished the stimulatory effects of both carbachol and PMA on MAP kinase activity, whereas EGF-stimulated MAP kinase activity remained unaffected. Thus carbachol acting through the muscarinic (M3) receptor PKC-dependently induced tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of a 42 kDa MAP kinase in SH-SY5Y cells, whereas EGF-induced MAP kinase activation occurred independently of PKC.
