Abstract
Adenosine acts as an endogenous anticonvulsant and seizure terminator in the brain. Many of its anticonvulsive effects are mediated through the activation of the adenosine A1 receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor with a wide array of targets. Activating A1 receptors is an effective approach to suppress seizures. This review gives an overview of the neuronal targets of the adenosine A1 receptor focusing in particular on signaling pathways resulting in neuronal inhibition. These include direct interactions of G protein subunits, the adenyl cyclase pathway and the phospholipase C pathway, which all mediate neuronal hyperpolarization and suppression of synaptic transmission. Additionally, the contribution of the guanyl cyclase and mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades to the seizure-suppressing effects of A1 receptor activation are discussed. This review ends with the cautionary note that chronic activation of the A1 receptor might have detrimental effects, which will need to be avoided when pursuing A1 receptor-based epilepsy therapies.

P2Y receptor-mediated transient relaxation of rat longitudinal ileum preparations involves phospholipase C activation, intracellular Ca(2+) release and SK channel activation. Acta Pharmacol Sin 2016; 37:617-28. [PMID: 27018177 DOI: 10.1038/aps.2015.137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2015] [Accepted: 12/10/2015] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
AIM Purinergic signaling plays a major role in the enteric nervous system, where it governs gut motility through a number of P2X and P2Y receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate the P2Y receptor-mediated motility in rat longitudinal ileum preparations. METHODS Ileum smooth muscle strips were prepared from rats, and fixed in an organ bath. Isometric contraction and relaxation responses of the muscle strips were measured with force transducers. Drugs were applied by adding of stock solutions to the organ bath to yield the individual final concentrations. RESULTS Application of the non-hydrolyzable P2 receptor agonists α,β-Me-ATP or 2-Me-S-ADP (10, 100 μmol/L) dose-dependently elicited a transient relaxation response followed by a sustained contraction. The relaxation response was largely blocked by SK channel blockers apamin (500 nmol/L) and UCL1684 (10 μmol/L), PLC inhibitor U73122 (100 μmol/L), IP3 receptor blocker 2-APB (100 μmol/L) or sarcoendoplasmic Ca(2+) ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (1 μmol/L), but not affected by atropine, NO synthase blocker L-NAME or tetrodotoxin. Furthermore, α,β-Me-ATP-induced relaxation was suppressed by P2Y1 receptor antagonist MRS2179 (50 μmol/L) or P2Y13 receptor antagonist MRS2211 (100 μmol/L), and was abolished by co-application of the two antagonists, whereas 2-Me-S-ADP-induced relaxation was abolished by P2Y6 receptor antagonist MRS2578 (50 μmol/L). In addition, P2Y1 receptor antagonist MRS2500 (1 μmol/L) not only abolished α,β-Me-ATP-induced relaxation, but also suppressed 2-Me-S-ADP-induced relaxation. CONCLUSION P2Y receptor agonist-induced transient relaxation of rat ileum smooth muscle strips is mediated predominantly by P2Y1 receptor, but also by P2Y6 and P2Y13 receptors, and involves PLC, IP3, Ca(2+) release and SK channel activation, but is independent of acetylcholine and NO release.

Abstract
Phospholipase C-β (PLCβ) is a key regulator of intracellular calcium levels whose activity is controlled by heptahelical receptors that couple to Gq. We have determined atomic structures of two invertebrate homologs of PLCβ (PLC21) from cephalopod retina and identified a helix from the C-terminal regulatory region that interacts with a conserved surface of the catalytic core of the enzyme. Mutations designed to disrupt the analogous interaction in human PLCβ3 dramatically increase basal activity and diminish stimulation by Gαq. Gαq binding requires displacement of the autoinhibitory helix from the catalytic core, thus providing an allosteric mechanism for activation of PLCβ.

Abstract
Cross-talk between Gα(i)- and Gα(q)-linked G-protein-coupled receptors yields synergistic Ca(2+) responses in a variety of cell types. Prior studies have shown that synergistic Ca(2+) responses from macrophage G-protein-coupled receptors are primarily dependent on phospholipase Cβ3 (PLCβ3), with a possible contribution of PLCβ2, whereas signaling through PLCβ4 interferes with synergy. We here show that synergy can be induced by the combination of Gβγ and Gα(q) activation of a single PLCβ isoform. Synergy was absent in macrophages lacking both PLCβ2 and PLCβ3, but it was fully reconstituted following transduction with PLCβ3 alone. Mechanisms of PLCβ-mediated synergy were further explored in NIH-3T3 cells, which express little if any PLCβ2. RNAi-mediated knockdown of endogenous PLCβs demonstrated that synergy in these cells was dependent on PLCβ3, but PLCβ1 and PLCβ4 did not contribute, and overexpression of either isoform inhibited Ca(2+) synergy. When synergy was blocked by RNAi of endogenous PLCβ3, it could be reconstituted by expression of either human PLCβ3 or mouse PLCβ2. In contrast, it could not be reconstituted by human PLCβ3 with a mutation of the Y box, which disrupted activation by Gβγ, and it was only partially restored by human PLCβ3 with a mutation of the C terminus, which partly disrupted activation by Gα(q). Thus, both Gβγ and Gα(q) contribute to activation of PLCβ3 in cells for Ca(2+) synergy. We conclude that Ca(2+) synergy between Gα(i)-coupled and Gα(q)-coupled receptors requires the direct action of both Gβγ and Gα(q) on PLCβ and is mediated primarily by PLCβ3, although PLCβ2 is also competent.

Abstract
Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) are powerful immunomodulatory agents that produce marked renal dysfunction due in part to endothelin-1-mediated reductions in renal blood flow. Ligand-stimulated Gq protein signaling promotes the contraction of smooth muscle cells via phospholipase Cbeta-mediated stimulation of cytosolic calcium release. RGS4 is a GTPase activating protein that promotes the deactivation of Gq and Gi family members. To investigate the role of G protein-mediated signaling in the pathogenesis of CNI-mediated renal injury, we used mice deficient for RGS4 (rgs4(-/-)). Compared to congenic wild type control animals, rgs4(-/-) mice were intolerant of the CNI, cyclosporine (CyA), rapidly developing fatal renal failure. Rgs4(-/-) mice exhibited markedly reduced renal blood flow after CyA treatment when compared to congenic wild type control mice as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Hypoperfusion was reversed by coadministration of CyA with the endothelin antagonist, bosentan. The MAPK/ERK pathway was activated by cyclosporine administration and was inhibited by cotreatment with bosentan. These results show that endothelin-1-mediated Gq protein signaling plays a key role in the pathogenesis of vasoconstrictive renal injury and that RGS4 antagonizes the deleterious effects of excess endothelin receptor activation in the kidney.

Abstract
A mathematical model of the G protein signaling pathway in RAW 264.7 macrophages downstream of P2Y(6) receptors activated by the ubiquitous signaling nucleotide uridine 5'-diphosphate is developed. The model, which is based on time-course measurements of inositol trisphosphate, cytosolic calcium, and diacylglycerol, focuses particularly on differential dynamics of multiple chemical species of diacylglycerol. When using the canonical pathway representation, the model predicted that key interactions were missing from the current network structure. Indeed, the model suggested that accurate depiction of experimental observations required an additional branch to the signaling pathway. An intracellular pool of diacylglycerol is immediately phosphorylated upon stimulation of an extracellular receptor for uridine 5'-diphosphate and subsequently used to aid replenishment of phosphatidylinositol. As a result of sensitivity analysis of the model parameters, key predictions can be made regarding which of these parameters are the most sensitive to perturbations and are therefore most responsible for output uncertainty.

Abstract
Muscarinic receptors have been proposed to play an important role during brain development by regulating cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. This study investigated the effect of muscarinic receptor activation on prenatal rat hippocampal pyramidal neuron differentiation and the signal transduction pathways involved in this effect. The cholinergic agonist carbachol, after 24 h in vitro, increased the length of the axon, without affecting the length of minor neurites. Carbachol-induced axonal growth was also observed in pyramidal neurons from the neocortex but not in granule neurons from the cerebellum. The effect of carbachol was mediated by the M(1) subtype of muscarinic receptors. The Ca(2+) chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-acetoxymethyl ester, the two protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors 3-[1-[3-(dimethylaminopropyl]-1H-indol-3-yl]-4-(1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione monohydrochloride (GF109203X) and 2-[8-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyridol[1,2-a]indol-3-yl]-3-(1-methylindol-3-yl)maleimide (Ro-32-0432), and the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 inhibitors 2'-amino-3'-methoxyflavone (PD98059) and 1,4-diamino-2,3-dicyano-1,4-bis(methylthio)butadiene (U0126) all blocked carbachol-induced axonal outgrowth. In addition, down-regulation of ERK1/2 with small interfering RNA abolished the neuritogenic effect of carbachol. These data suggest an involvement of Ca(2+), PKC, and ERK1/2 in carbachol-induced axonal growth. Carbachol indeed increased the release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores and induced PKC and ERK1/2 activation. Additional experiments showed that PKC, but not Ca(2+), is involved in carbachol-induced ERK1/2 activation. Together, these results show that cholinergic stimulation of prenatal hippocampal pyramidal neurons accelerates axonal growth through the induction of Ca(2+) mobilization and the activation of PKC and especially of ERK1/2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) is a bioactive sphingolipid that stimulates the migration of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) through G-protein coupled receptors; it has been shown to activate reduced nicotinamide dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NAD[P]H) oxidase. The role of phospholipase C (PLC) in oxygen free radical generation, and the regulation of VSMC migration in response to S-1-P, are poorly understood. METHODS Rat arterial VSMC were cultured in vitro. Oxygen free radical generation was measured by fluorescent redox indicator assays in response to S-1-P (0.1microM) in the presence and absence of the active PLC inhibitor (U73122; U7, 10nM) or its inactive analog U73343 (InactiveU7, 10nM). Activation of PLC was assessed by immunoprecipitation and Western blotting for the phosphorylated isozymes (beta and gamma). Small interfering (si) RNA to the G-proteins Galphai, Galphaq, and Galpha12/13 was used to downregulate specific proteins. Statistics were by one-way analysis of variance (n = 6). RESULTS S-1-P induced time-dependent activation of PLC-beta and PLC-gamma; PLC-beta but not PLC-gamma activation was blocked by U7 but not by InactiveU7. PLC-beta activation was Galphai-independent (not blocked by pertussis toxin, a Galphai inhibitor, or Galphai2 and Galphai3 siRNA) and Galphaq-independent (not blocked by glycoprotein [GP] 2A, a Galphaq inhibitor, or Galphaq siRNA). PLC-beta activation and cell migration was blocked by siRNA to Galpha12/13. Oxygen free radical generation induced by S-1-P, as measured by dihydroethidium staining, was significantly inhibited by U7 but not by InactiveU7. Inhibition of oxygen free radicals with the inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium resulted in decreased cell migration to S-1-P. VSMC mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and VSMC migration in response to S-1-P was inhibited by PLC- inhibition. CONCLUSION S-1-P induces oxygen free radical generation through a Galpha12/13, PLC-beta-mediated mechanism that facilitates VSMC migration. To our knowledge, this is the first description of PLC-mediated oxygen free radical generation as a mediator of S-1-P VSMC migration and illustrates the need for the definition of cell signaling to allow targeted strategies in molecular therapeutics for restenosis.

Abstract
Human T-cell leukemia virus type-1 (HTLV-1) is associated with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and neurological syndromes. HTLV-1 encodes the oncoprotein Tax-1, which modulates viral and cellular gene expression leading to T-cell transformation. Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of membrane proteins known and are involved in the regulation of most biological functions. Here, we report an interaction between HTLV-1 Tax oncoprotein and the G-protein beta subunit. Interestingly, though the G-protein beta subunit inhibits Tax-mediated viral transcription, Tax-1 perturbs G-protein beta subcellular localization. Functional evidence for these observations was obtained using conditional Tax-1-expressing transformed T-lymphocytes, where Tax expression correlated with activation of the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis. Our data indicated that HTLV-1 developed a strategy based on the activation of the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis in the infected cell; this could have tremendous implications for new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
We previously found that Merkel cells (MCs) of the rat and monkey show a strong immunoreaction of the alpha-subunit of Gq protein. The Galphaq-subunit isoform activates isozymes of phospholipase C-beta (PLC-beta), which produces inositol-(1,4,5)-triphosphate (IP3) which mobilizes intracellular Ca(++) from calcium stores via IP3 receptors. Glutamate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which are candidates for neurotransmitters in Merkel endings, are known to couple to Galphaq. Although MCs showed positive immunoreactions of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) in our preliminary study, these cells were not reactive to all antibodies to PLC-beta isozymes. We, therefore, reinvestigated immunohistochemical affinities to MCs of antibodies to PLC-beta isozymes and mGluRs using frozen sections of rat sinus hair follicles that were briefly postfixed in formaldehyde. We also studied the immunohistochemical expressions of P2Y receptors for ATP and IP3 receptor subtypes using similar sections. Merkel cells showed positive immunoreactions of PLC-beta1 and mGluR5. It was also found that MCs show positive immunoreactions of P2Y2, IP3R-I, and IP3R-II receptors. These results suggest that the Galphaq isoform in MCs couples to both the P2Y2 receptor and mGluR5 and regulates the intracellular Ca(++) concentration via the PLC-beta-IP3 cascade.

Abstract
1. The effect of adenosine analogues and of nucleotides, alone or in combination, on intracellular calcium, accumulation of inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate (InsP3), and on activation of protein kinase C (PKC) was studied in DDT1 MF2 cells derived from a Syrian hamster myosarcoma. These cells were found to express mRNA for A1 and some as yet unidentified P2Y receptor(s). 2. Activation of either receptor type stimulated the production of InsP3 and raised intracellular calcium in DDT1 MF2 cells. Similarly, the A1 selective agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) increased PKC-dependent phosphorylation of the substrate MBP(4-14) and induced a PKC translocation to the plasma membrane as determined using [3H]-phorbol dibutyrate (PDBu) binding in DDT1 MF-2 cells. However, neither adenosine nor CPA induced a significant translocation of transiently transfected gamma-PKC-GFP from the cytosol to the cell membrane. In contrast to adenosine analogues, ATP and UTP also caused a rapid but transient translocation of gamma-PKC-GFP and activation of PKC. 3. Doses of the A1 agonist CPA and of ATP or UTP per se caused barely detectable increases in intracellular Ca2+ but when combined, they caused an almost maximal stimulation. Similarly, adenosine (0.6 microM) and UTP (or ATP, 2.5 microM), which per se caused no detectable translocation of either gamma- or epsilon-PKC-GFP, caused when combined a very clear-cut translocation of both PKC subforms, albeit with different time courses. These results show that simultaneous activation of P2Y and adenosine A1 receptors synergistically increases Ca2+ transients and translocation of PKC in DDT1 MF-2 cells. Since adenosine is rapidly formed by breakdown of extracellular ATP, such interactions may be biologically important.

Abstract
1. We developed a simple and sensitive peripheral analgesic test in mice. 2. Substance P (SP) given into the planta (i.pl.) of the mouse hind limb produced a flexor response. The flexor response was dependent on SP doses (0.1-100 pmol, i.pl.). When SP (10 pmol) was given every 5 min, there were stable flexor responses. These nociceptive responses were completely abolished by CP-96,345, a neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist. 3. SP-induced responses were also blocked by several signal transduction-related compounds, such as tetrodotoxin, EGTA, and U73122, a selective phospholipase C inhibitor. 4. These findings suggest that SP depolarizes peripheral nerve endings, possibly through inositol trisphosphate (Ins P3)-gated Ca2+ influx, followed by induction of action potentials in the peripheral axons of primary afferent neurons.

Abstract
The present work characterizes the mRNA expression of PACAP type I receptors in rat peritoneal macrophages but not in peritoneal lymphocytes by both retrotranscriptase and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and homologous Southern hybridization and the stimulation by PACAP27, PACAP38 and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol production in rat peritoneal macrophage membranes. The binding of [125I]PACAP27 was time and cell concentration dependent. Scatchard analysis of displacement of the bound tracer by unlabeled PACAP27 indicates the existence of two classes of binding sites. The dissociation constant (Kd) was 0.64 +/- 0.08 nM and the maximal binding capacity (Bmax) was 8.85 +/- 1.45 fmol/10(6) cells for the high affinity binding site. The low affinity binding site had a Kd of 0.10 +/- 0.06 microM with a Bmax of 300 +/- 21.9 fmol/10(6) cells. Scatchard analysis of VIP displacement data indicated the presence of two classes of binding sites with a Kd and Bmax different to those of PACAP27. These results suggest that PACAP binds to two binding sites, PACAP type I receptors and PACAP type II receptors. The PACAP27-stimulated diacylglycerol production was not affected by treatment with pertussis toxin. However, the presence of GTP partially inhibited this PACAP27 stimulation of 1,2-diacylglycerol in a dose dependent manner, although GTP alone stimulates diacylglycerol accumulation. In conclusion, for the first time we demonstrate by biochemical and molecular biology criteria the existence of PACAP type I receptors on rat peritoneal macrophages and the evidence for coupling with a pertussis toxin-insensitive G regulatory protein.
