Abstract
The response of cells to many external stimuli requires a decoding process at the membrane to transduce information into intracellular messengers. A major decoding mechanism employed by a variety of hormones, neurotransmitters and growth factors depends on the hydrolysis of a unique inositol lipid to generate two key second messengers, diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3). Here I examine the second messenger function of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in controlling the mobilization of calcium. We know most about how this messenger releases calcium from internal reservoirs but less is known concerning the entry of external calcium. One interesting possibility is that Ins(1,4,5)P3 might function in conjunction with its metabolic product Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to control calcium entry through a mechanism employing a region of the endoplasmic reticulum as a halfway house during the transfer of calcium from outside the cell into the cytoplasm. The endoplasmic reticulum interposed between the plasma membrane and the cytosol may function as a capacitor to insure against the cell being flooded with external calcium. When stimulated, cells often display remarkably uniform oscillations in intracellular calcium. At least two oscillatory patterns have been recognized suggesting the existence of separate mechanisms both of which may depend upon Ins(1,4,5)P3. In one mechanism, oscillations may be driven by periodic pulses of Ins(1,4,5)P3 produced by receptors under negative feedback control of protein kinase C. The other oscillatory mechanism may depend upon Ins(1,4,5)P3 unmasking a process of calcium-induced calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum. The function of these calcium oscillations is still unknown. This Ins(1,4,5)P3/calcium signalling system is put to many uses during the life history of a cell.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Measurement of cytoplasmic free calcium, [Ca2+]i, in single human endothelial cells has shown that low doses of the inflammatory mediator histamine evoke asynchronous repetitive spikes in [Ca2+]i whereas high doses cause a maintained elevated [Ca2+]i. We discuss possible regulatory mechanisms, and the potential physiological and pathological implications of such a frequency-modulated [Ca2+]i signalling system.

Abstract
In longitudinal smooth muscle from guinea-pig intestine prelabelled with [3H]inositol, carbachol produced a 3-fold increase in [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate within 2 s, and there was also a simultaneous increase in [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. 3H-labelling of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate was not significantly increased until 60 s after carbachol stimulation, and the accumulation of [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate was relatively small.

Abstract
The turnover of vasopressin-stimulated 32P-phosphoinositides and 32P-phosphatidic acid and accumulation of [2-3H]-inositol phosphates were examined in hepatocytes from rats infused i.v. with saline and E. coli endotoxin for 3 hrs. Within 60s of VP stimulation the decrease in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate labeling as well as the increased uptake of 32P into phosphatidic acid were similar in both groups. However, at a later time (300s) the 32P-phosphatidylinositol turnover was greatly decreased concomitantly with a higher labeling of phosphatidic acid. The accumulation of [2-3H]-inositol phosphates in ET-cells was significantly decreased both at 30s and 600s after VP addition. The distribution of [2-3H]-inositol labeling accumulated in the different inositol phosphate fractions over the first 30s of VP stimulation showed a tendency to lower accumulation of inositol trisphosphate, and a significantly lower accumulation of inositol bisphosphate simultaneously with a higher labeling of the inositol tetrakisphosphate fraction. These observations reflect an early effect of ET-infusion on VP-stimulated inositol lipid turnover and on the subsequent metabolism of the released inositol phosphates.

Abstract
Liver homogenates phosphorylated Ins 1,3,4-P3 to an InsP4 isomer that was distinct from Ins 1,3,4,5-P4. This InsP4 isomer accumulated in vasopressin stimulated hepatocytes prelabeled with myo-[3H]inositol with a time course that lagged behind Ins 1,3,4-P3 formation. The Ins 1,3,4-P3 kinase responsible for its formation was partially purified from rat liver. The enzyme had a Km for Ins 1,3,4-P3 of 0.29 microM, a Km for ATP of 141 microM and was not affected by changes in free Ca2+ in the physiological range. The relationship of this new InsP4 isomer to the inositol phosphate signaling pathway is discussed.

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
Inositol-1,4-bisphosphatase has been purified 13,000-fold from bovine brain supernatant. The enzyme is monomeric, with an apparent subunit Mr of 40,000. Maximal hydrolytic rates were observed in Tris buffer, pH 7.8, in the presence of 9 mM-Mg2+. The enzyme acted as a 1-phosphatase, hydrolysing both inositol 1,4-bisphosphate [Ins(1,4)P2] (Km 0.04 mM) and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] (Km 0.5 mM) to inositol 4-phosphate and inositol 3,4-bisphosphate respectively. Li+ inhibited the hydrolysis of both substrates in an uncompetitive manner, with apparent Ki values of 9.63 mM and 0.46 mM for Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(1,3,4)P3 respectively.

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
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
1. A method has been devised for quenching cell incubations with an aqueous phenol/chloroform/EDTA mixture of neutral pH, to allow the analysis of acid-labile cell components. 2. Using this method, we have searched for the appearance of Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 [inositol 1:2(cyclic),4,5-trisphosphate] in WRK1 mammary tumour cells that were labelled to high specific radioactivity with [3H]inositol and then stimulated with 0.4 microM-vasopressin. 3. Vasopressin caused a very rapid accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate), followed by a slower decline towards the original concentration. An acid-labile and inositol-labelled compound with the chromatographic properties of Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 was present in unstimulated cells at less than 5% of the elevated concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3. Its concentration rose 2-3-fold during stimulation for 3 min, at which time its concentration was about 5% of the elevated concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3. 4. We conclude that Ins(1,4,5)P3 is the major product of phosphoinositidase C-catalysed phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis in vasopressin-stimulated WRK1 cells. Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 is unlikely to be an important intracellular messenger in these cells, at least during the first few minutes of stimulation.

Abstract
The metabolism of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] consists of two pathways: dephosphorylation by 5-phosphomonoesterase(s) produces inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, and phosphorylation by Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase yields inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4]. The requirements for Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase activity in retina were characterized. Apparent Km values for ATP and Ins(1,4,5)P3 are 1.4 mM and 1.3 microM respectively. A direct demonstration of phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 by [gamma-32P]ATP was achieved. Characterization of the 32P-labelled product revealed that it had the expected chromatographic and electrophoretic properties of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

Abstract
Homogenates of primary-cultured murine bone macrophages contain an enzyme capable of synthesizing myo-[3H]inositol pentakisphosphate from myo-[3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions derived from myo-[3H]inositol-labelled mouse macrophages and chick erythrocytes. D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]-phosphate present in the same incubations was not phosphorylated. Since the myo-[3H]inositol-labelled tetrakisphosphate fractions used as substrates consist of a mixture of L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (60-85%) and a periodate-resistant tetrakisphosphate(s) whose characteristics are consistent with those of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (the preceding paper [Stephens, Hawkins, Carter, Chahwala, Morris, Whetton & Downes (1988) Biochem. J. 249, 271-282] ), these data suggest the existence of a kinase that phosphorylates L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate to give a myo-inositol pentakisphosphate. A similar activity was identified in homogenates of rat cerebrum, liver, heart and parotid gland. D-myo-Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]phosphate in the same incubations was not a substrate. The activity was almost entirely soluble in all the tissues investigated and was found at its greatest specific activity in brain cytosol. The activity was purified 120-fold from a rat brain homogenate by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography. The activity was clearly distinct from D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase. Incubation of this partially purified preparation with L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate from chick erythrocytes and [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the formation of L-myo-[3H]-inositol [1-32P]1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate. The enzyme is therefore identified as an L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase.

Abstract
We studied the dephosphorylation pathway for Ins(1,3,4)P3 (inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate) by liver homogenates and soluble and particulate subfractions incubated in media resembling physiological ionic strength and pH. Ins(1,3,4)P3 was dephosphorylated to two InsP2 (inositol bisphosphate) isomers, one of which is Ins(3,4)P2 [Shears, Parry, Tang, Irvine, Michell & Kirk (1987) Biochem. J. 246, 139-147]. The second InsP2 is the 1,3 isomer. Ins(3,4)P2 is dephosphorylated to inositol 3-phosphate by an enzyme activity located in both soluble and particulate fractions. The phosphatase(s) that attacks Ins(1,3)P2 was largely soluble, but we have not determined which phosphate(s) is removed. When the initial substrate concentration was 1 nM, the rate of dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4)P2 greater than Ins(1,3)P2 greater than Ins(3,4)P2. None of these bisphosphates was phosphorylated when incubated with liver homogenates and 5 mM-ATP, but their rates of dephosphorylation were then decreased.

Abstract
Turkey erythrocytes contain soluble and particulate kinase activities which catalyse the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. The particle-bound activity accounts for approximately one-quarter of the total cellular Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase, when assayed at a [Ca2+] of 10 nM. The particle-bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase is not washed from the membrane by 0.6 M-KCl, yet may be solubilized by a variety of detergents. This suggests that it is an intrinsic membrane protein. The product of the membrane-bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase is inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4], identifying the enzyme as an Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase. In the presence of calmodulin, the membrane-associated Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase is activated as [Ca2+] is increased over the range 0.2-1.0 microM. Under these conditions, the rates of dephosphorylation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5)P3 by phosphatases in the membrane fraction are unchanged.
