Abstract
The presence of VIP/PACAP receptors was investigated on the human erythroleukemic cell line HEL. Specific binding of [125I]-PACAP or [125I]-VIP on HEL cells or membranes was very low and did not allow to perform competition curves. At 37 degrees C PACAP transiently increased cAMP levels in the presence of the non-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX, suggesting rapid desensitization. Kinetic studies revealed that optimal conditions to measure the EC(50) of PACAP(1-27) were 10 min at 20 degrees C. Under those conditions, PACAP-related peptides increased cAMP levels with EC(50) in agreement with the pharmacological profile of the VPAC(1) receptor subtype: PACAP = VIP > [K(15), R(16,) L(27)]VIP(1-7)/GRF(8-27) = [R(16)]ChSn (two VPAC(1) agonists) >> helodermin = secretin. RO 25-1553, a selective activator of VPAC(2) receptor was inactive at 1 microM. Dose-response curves of VPAC(1) agonist molecules (PACAP, VIP, [K(15), R(16), L(27)]VIP(1-7)/GRF(8-27), [R(16)]ChSn) were shifted to the right by the VPAC(1) receptor antagonist [AcHis(1), D-Phe(2), Lys(15), Leu(17)]VIP(3-7)/GRF(8-27), with a K(i) of 3 +/- 1 nM (n = 3). The presence of VPAC(1) receptor mRNA was confirmed by RT-PCR. Preincubation with PACAP or PMA showed that VPAC(1) receptors underwent homologous and heterologous desensitization. This study provides the first evidence for the expression of functional VPAC(1) receptors undergoing rapid desensitization in HEL cells.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) have been suggested to play a role in atherosclerosis, but intracellular signaling after stimulation with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is unknown. We investigated mechanistic aspects of oxidized LDL-induced superoxide production by human PMN, with special emphasis on intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). Oxidized LDL, but not native LDL, evoked an early but sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](i) and a delayed production of superoxide. The increase in [Ca(2+)](i) could be reduced by fucoidan and completely prevented by U73122, suggesting involvement of the scavenger receptor and coupling to the phospholipase C signal transduction pathway. Furthermore, we provide evidence that the increase in [Ca(2+)](i) partly results from protein kinase C-dependent Ca(2+) influx. The relevance of this Ca(2+) entry for oxidized LDL-stimulated effects is illustrated by the finding that superoxide production was markedly reduced in the absence of external Ca(2+). Finally, inhibition of phagocytosis by cytochalasin B abolished oxidized LDL-stimulated superoxide production without affecting, however, the Ca(2+) mobilization. These effects of oxidized LDL on [Ca(2+)](i) and on respiratory burst of PMN may underlie the occurrence of elevated levels of [Ca(2+)](i) of resting PMN in hypercholesterolemia and represent a mechanism by which PMN can amplify processes in the early phase of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
1. Many G protein-coupled receptors contain potential phosphorylation sites for protein kinase C (PKC), the exact role of which is poorly understood. In the present study, a mutant cholecystokininA (CCK(A)) receptor was generated in which the four consensus sites for PKC action were changed in an alanine. Both the wild-type (CCK(A)WT) and mutant (CCK(A)MT) receptor were stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. 2. Binding of [3H]-cholecystokinin-(26-33)-peptide amide (CCK-8) to membranes prepared from CHO-CCK(A)WT cells and CHO-CCK(A)MT cells revealed no difference in binding affinity (Kd values of 0.72 nM and 0.86 nM CCK-8, respectively). 3. The dose-response curves for CCK-8-induced cyclic AMP accumulation and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) formation were shifted to the left in CHO-CCK(A)MT cells. This leftward shift was mimicked by the potent inhibitor of protein kinase activity, staurosporine. However, the effect of staurosporine was restricted to CHO-CCK(A)WT cells. This demonstrates that attenuation of CCK-8-induced activation of adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C-beta involves a staurosporine-sensitive kinase, which acts directly at the potential sites of PKC action on the CCK(A) receptor in CCK-8-stimulated CHO-CCK(A)WT cells. 4. The potent PKC activator, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), evoked a rightward shift of the dose-response curve for CCK-8-induced cyclic AMP accumulation in CHO-CCK(A)WT cells but not CHO-CCK(A)MT cells. This is in agreement with the idea that PKC acts directly at the CCK(A) receptor to attenuate adenylyl cyclase activation. 5. In contrast, TPA evoked a rightward shift of the dose-response curve for CCK-8-induced Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation in both cell lines. This demonstrates that high-level PKC activation inhibits CCK-8-induced Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation also at a post-receptor site. 6. TPA inhibition of agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization was only partly reversed in CHO-CCK(A)MT cells. TPA also inhibited Ca2+ mobilization in response to the G protein activator, Mas-7. These findings are in agreement with the idea that partial reversal of agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization is due to the presence of an additional site of PKC inhibition downstream of the receptor and that the mutant receptor itself is not inhibited by the action of PKC. 7. The data presented demonstrate that the predicted sites for PKC action on the CCK(A) receptor are the only sites involved in TPA-induced uncoupling of the receptor from its G proteins. In addition, the present study unveils a post-receptor site of PKC action, the physiological relevance of which may be that it provides a means for the cell to inhibit phospholipase C-beta activation by receptors that are not phosphorylated by PKC.

Abstract
1. The rat CCK(A) and CCK(B) receptors were stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-09) cells in order to compare modes of signal transduction and effects of protein kinase C (PKC) thereupon. 2. Spectrofluorophotometry of Fura-2-loaded cells revealed that both receptors retained their pharmacological characteristics following expression in CHO cells. Sulphated cholecystokinin-(26-33)-peptide amide (CCK-8-S) increased the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in CCK(A) cells, measured as an increase in Fura-2 fluorescence emission ratio, 1000 fold more potently than its non-sulphated form (CCK-8-NS) (EC50 values of 0.19 nM and 0.18 microM, respectively). By contrast, CCK-8-S and CCK-8-NS were equally potent in CCK(B) cells (EC50 values of 0.86 nM and 1.18 nM, respectively). The CCK(A) receptor agonist JMV-180 increased [Ca2+]i only in CCK(A) cells. Likewise, pentagastrin increased [Ca2+]i only in CCK(B) cells. Finally, CCK-8-S-induced Ca2+ signalling through the CCK(A) receptor was most potently inhibited by the CCK(A) receptor antagonist L364,718, whereas the CCK(B) receptor antagonist L365,260 was more potent in CCK(B) cells. 3. Receptor-mediated activation of adenylyl cyclase was measured in the presence of the inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. CCK-8-S and, to a lesser extent, CCK-8-NS, but not JMV-180 or pentagastrin, stimulated the accumulation of cyclicAMP in CCK(A) cells. By contrast, none of these agonists increased cyclicAMP in CCK(B) cells. 4. Short-term (3 min) pretreatment with the PKC activator 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) evoked a rightward shift of the dose-response curve for the Ca2+ mobilizing effect of CCK-8-S in both cell lines. In addition, short-term TPA pretreatment markedly reduced CCK-8-S-induced cyclicAMP accumulation in CCK(A) cells. In both cases, the inhibitory effect of TPA was abolished by the PKC inhibitors, GF-109203X and staurosporine, whereas no inhibition was observed with the inactive phorbol ester, 4-alpha-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. 5. During prolonged TPA treatment, the cells gradually recovered from phorbol ester inhibition and in the case of CCK-8-S-induced Ca2+ mobilization complete recovery was achieved after 24 h of TPA treatment. Western blot analysis revealed that this recovery was paralleled by down-regulation of PKC-alpha, suggesting the involvement of this PKC isotype in the inhibitory action of TPA. 6. This study demonstrates that following expression in CHO cells (i) both CCK(A) and CCK(B) receptors are coupled to Ca2+ mobilization, (ii) only CCK(A) receptors are coupled to cyclicAMP formation and (iii) with both receptors signalling is inhibited by PKC.

Abstract
Recently a molecular model was proposed for the binding site of the antagonist 3S(-)-N-(2,3-dihydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-3-yl) -1H-indole-2-carboxamide (devazepide) on the cholecystokinin-A (CCK(A)) receptor (Van der Bent et al., 1994. Drug Design Discov. 12, 129-148). Fifteen amino acids were identified, including hydrophilic ones such as Ser139, Asn349 and Ser379, that might interact with the carboxamide moiety in devazepide. To provide mutational evidence for this model, wild-type and mutant receptors (S139A, N349A and S379A) were transiently expressed and compared with respect to the ability of devazepide to inhibit binding of radiolabelled cholecystokinin-(26-33)-peptide amide (CCK-8) and CCK-8-evoked Ca2+ mobilization. The data presented suggest the involvement of the three residues in antagonist binding, although to a different extent. However, it does not seem likely that hydrogen bonds are the driving force in view of the relatively minor changes in receptor affinity and activity.

Abstract
Digital-imaging microscopy of Fura-2-loaded Chinese hamster ovary cells, stably expressing the cholecystokinin-A receptor, revealed that both the C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCKB) and its analogue JMV-180, which acts as an agonist at the high-affinity CCK-A receptor, recruited CHO-CCK-A cells dose-dependently in terms of receptor-mediated Ca2+ mobilization. Agonist-evoked cell recruitment was inhibited by short-term (10 min) pretreatment with 0.1 microM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA). In the case of CCKB, inhibition was overcome with increasing of the hormone concentration. In contrast, increasing of the JMV-180 concentration did not reverse the inhibitory action of TPA. CHO-CCK-A cells gradually regained their responsiveness to JMV-180 during prolonged TPA pretreatment. Complete recovery was observed within 1 h following addition of TPA. Western blot analysis using antibodies directed against the various PKC isotypes revealed that recovery was paralleled by the disappearance of PKC-alpha. Surprisingly, short-term (10 min) TPA pretreatment virtually completely inhibited the formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] in response to CCKB concentrations at which the effect on cell recruitment was not affected by short term phorbol ester pretreatment. Together with the finding that JMV-180 does not detectably increase the cellular Ins(1,4,5)P3 content, this suggests a large overproduction of this second messenger by CCKB concentrations supramaximal in terms of cell recruitment. Again, full responsiveness was observed after long term TPA pretreatment. The present observations are in agreement with the idea that in CHO-CCK-A cells activation of PKC-alpha leads to inhibition of agonist-evoked Ca2+ mobilization through inhibition of receptor-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation.

Abstract
1. The cellular processes involved in the desensitization of the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptors were investigated by measurements of the glucagon-like peptide 1(7-36)amide (GLP-1(7-36)amide)-induced increases in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in insulin-secreting beta TC3 cells. 2. In the presence of 11.2 mM glucose, stimulation with GLP-1(7-36)amide led to a small membrane depolarization (< 10 mV), induction of electrical activity and a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i. The increase in [Ca2+]i was not observed in the presence of the L-type Ca(2+)-channel antagonist nifedipine. However, nifedipine was ineffective when applied after addition of GLP-1(7-36)amide. 3. The increase in [Ca2+]i evoked by GLP-1-(7-36)amide was transient and even in the continued presence of the agonist, [Ca2+]i returned to the basal value within 4-5 min. The latter process was slowed, but not prevented, by inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) by staurosporine and Ro31-8220. 4. Short pretreatment of the cells with the phorbol ester, 4-beta-phorbol-12-beta-myristate-13-alpha-acetate (PMA), an activator of PKC, reduced the GLP-1(7-36)amide-evoked increase in [Ca2+]i by 75%. This effect of PMA was fully reversed by staurosporine and Ro31-8220. 5. The ability of GLP-1(7-36)amide to increase [Ca2+]i disappeared upon pre-exposure of the cells to the hormone (desensitization). This process was maximal within 5 min of exposure to the agonist. Following removal of the agonist from the medium, the ability to respond to subsequent stimulation by GLP-1(7-36)amide recovered gradually with time; half and complete recovery requiring > 20 min and 60 min, respectively. The desensitizing action of GLP-1(7-36)amide persisted in the presence of either staurosporine or forskolin and did not require an elevation of [Ca2+]i. 6. Our data suggest that the GLP-1(7-36)amide-evoked increase in [Ca2+]i is initiated by Ca(2+)-influx though voltage-dependent and nifedipine-sensitive L-type Ca2+ channels but depends principally on Ca2+ mobilization from internal stores for its maintenance. The desensitization of the GLP-1 receptors that occurs in the continued presence of the agonist does not result from the activation of protein kinase A or Ca(2+)-dependent kinases/phosphatases. Our data indicate that activation of PKC may contribute to the desensitization of the GLP-1 receptors but that other (PKC-independent) mechanisms also participate in this process.

Abstract
Digital-imaging microscopy of Fura-2-loaded pancreatic acinar cells revealed that the C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK8) dose-dependently recruited 94% of freshly isolated acinar cells in terms of receptor-evoked Ca2+ mobilization. Maximal and half-maximal cell-recruitment were reached with 0.1 nM and 16.8 pM CCK8, respectively. The upstroke of the dose-recruitment curve consisted of cells displaying oscillatory changes in free cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). After having reached its maximum, the percentage oscillating cells dose-dependently decreased upon further increasing of the CCK8 concentration. Pretreatment of the acinar cells with 0.1 microM TPA caused a rightward shift of the dose-recruitment curve but did not change the maximal effect of CCK8 on the recruitment of oscillating cells. Half-maximal recruitment was obtained with 287 pM CCK8. This observation demonstrates that high levels of protein kinase C activation do not inhibit Ca2+ oscillations at a level downstream to receptor activation. Moreover, this observation demonstrates that protein kinase C-mediated inhibition of Ca2+ oscillations evoked by submaximal CCK8 concentrations occurs at the receptor level, converting it from a high-affinity state into a low-affinity state. This conclusion is supported by the observation that TPA completely inhibited the recruitment of acinar cells in response to the high-affinity receptor agonist JMV-180. The inhibitory action of TPA on CCK8-evoked cell-recruitment was paralleled by an inhibitory effect of the phorbol ester on the CCK8-evoked peak increase in average inositol trisphosphate concentration in a population of acinar cells. This observation indicates that low concentrations of CCK8 interact with the high-affinity CCK receptor to increase [Ca2+]i through the intermediation of inositol trisphosphate.

Abstract
In order to establish a regulatory role for phosphoproteins in receptor-stimulated enzyme secretion, dispersed rabbit pancreatic acinar cells were stimulated with the COOH-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK8) in the absence and presence of staurosporine and/or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) or forskolin. The dose/response curve for the stimulatory effect of CCK8 on amylase secretion was biphasic, with a mean half-maximal concentration (EC50) of 21 pM. Staurosporine (1 microM) did not affect secretion elicited by CCK8 concentrations below 0.1 nM, but reduced the response to CCK8 concentrations above 0.1 nM. As a result, the mean EC50 for CCK8 decreased to 8 pM and its efficacy to 70%. The phorbol ester TPA (0.1 microM) attenuated secretion evoked by CCK8 concentrations below 0.1 nM and potentiated the response to CCK8 concentrations above 0.1 nM. As a result, the mean EC50 for CCK8 increased to 0.14 nM and its efficacy to 300%. Staurosporine abolished both the inhibitory and the potentiating effect of TPA, thereby turning the inhibitory effect into a strong potentiating effect. As a result, the mean EC50 for CCK8 decreased to 3 pM, whereas its efficacy increased to 190%. Forskolin (30 microM) potentiated the response to both the lower and the higher CCK8 concentrations. As a result, the mean EC50 for CCK8 increased to 28 pM and its efficacy to 300%. Staurosporine enhanced the potentiating effect of forskolin at CCK8 concentrations below 0.1 nM, but abolished potentiation at CCK8 concentrations above 0.1 nM. As a result, the mean EC50 for CCK8 decreased to 1.4 pM, whereas its efficacy increased to 260%. The data presented demonstrate that the apparent sensitivity of dispersed pancreatic acinar cells to stimulation of the process of enzyme secretion by CCK8 decreases when kinases are activated and increases when kinases are inactivated. Moreover, they show that the efficacy of CCK8 increases by the action of kinases, both sensitive and insensitive to staurosporine.

Abstract
Stimulation of rat lacrimal acinar cells with ATP and acetylcholine (ACh) induced a rapid accumulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] and its degradation products, resulting in an initial release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. However, after pretreating the acini with U73122 no increase in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) or Ins(1,4,5)P3 production was observed. A short pretreatment with the phorbol ester 4-beta-phorbol-12-beta-myristate-13-alpha-acetate (PMA) significantly attenuated the ATP- and ACh-induced increase in [Ca2+]i and overall inositol phosphate production. In contrast, staurosporine enhanced Ins(1,4,5)P3 and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] production and [Ca2+]i above control values in ATP- and ACh-stimulated cells. Stimulation of phospholipase C by ionomycin-evoked changes in [Ca2+]i were unaltered by pretreatment with staurosporine and PMA. The data show that a change in protein kinase C activity during cell stimulation affects the inositol phosphate metabolism and thereby the cellular Ca2+ signalling processes in lacrimal acinar cells.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) analogs, JMV-180 and OPE, release Ca2+ from intracellular stores and induce oscillations in the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), but do not generate a detectable rise in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) levels. In contrast, high concentrations of CCK elevate InsP3, as well [Ca2+]i, to a peak which decreases to near basal levels without oscillations. The mechanisms which underlie inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations observed with high CCK concentrations are unclear, but are believed to involve a low-affinity CCK receptor state. Alternately, CCK analogs may be weak partial agonists of the phospholipase C pathway, whereas native CCK, as a full agonist of this pathway, stimulates low levels of protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Preincubation of acini with 1 nM 12 O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) for 15 min at 37 degrees C did not affect OPE binding to acini, but abolished OPE-induced (at 1 microM) [Ca2+]i oscillations without affecting the initial [Ca2+]i spike. These transformed OPE-induced [Ca2+]i responses mimicked those induced by supramaximal CCK octapeptide (CCK-8) concentrations. Inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations by 1 nM TPA was reversed by the PKC inhibitor staurosporine (0.2 microM). After [Ca2+]i oscillations were induced with OPE or low concentrations of CCK-8 (20 pM), 1 nM TPA caused a gradual slowing of oscillation frequency over 15-20 min without affecting [Ca2+]i spike amplitude. In contrast, 1 microM TPA inhibited OPE binding and caused a more generalized inhibition of OPE- and CCK-evoked Ca2+ signals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of the putative inhibitor of phospholipase C activity, U73122, on the Ca2+ sequestering and releasing properties of internal Ca2+ stores was studied in both permeabilized and intact rabbit pancreatic acinar cells. U73122 dose dependently inhibited ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake in the inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate-[Ins(1,4,5)P3]-sensitive, but not the Ins(1,4,5)P3-insensitive, Ca2+ store in acinar cells permeabilized by saponin treatment. In a suspension of intact acinar cells, loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, Fura-2, U73122 alone evoked a transient increase in average free cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i,av), which was largely independent of external Ca2+. Addition of U73122 to cell suspensions prestimulated with either cholecystokinin octapeptide or JMV-180 revealed an inverse relationship in size between the U73122- and the agonist-evoked [Ca2+]i,av transient. Moreover, thapsigargin-induced inhibition of intracellular Ca(2+)-ATPase activity resulted in a [Ca2+]i,av transient, the size of which was not different following maximal prestimulation with either U73122 or agonist. These observations suggest that U73122 selectively affects the Ins(1,4,5)P3- casu quo agonist-sensitive internal Ca2+ store, whereas thapsigargin affects both the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive and -insensitive Ca2+ store. Digital-imaging microscopy of Fura-2-loaded acinar cells demonstrated that U73122, in contrast to thapsigargin, evoked sustained oscillatory changes in [Ca2+]i. The U73122-evoked oscillations were abolished in the absence of external Ca2+. The ability of U73122 to generate external Ca(2+)-dependent Ca2+ oscillations suggests that depletion of the agonist-sensitive store leads to an increase in Ca2+ permeability of the plasma membrane and that the Ins(1,4,5)P3-insensitive Ca2+ pool is necessary for the Ca2+ oscillations.

Abstract
The oscillations in cytosolic Ca2+ evoked in pancreatic exocrine acinar cells by submaximal concentrations of the two phosphoinositidase-coupled agonists acetylcholine (ACh) and cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) have very different temporal patterns. In the present study we use digital video imaging of Fura-2 fluorescence to map the spatial distribution of Ca2+ during the oscillating responses to these two agonists. The spatial patterns induced are very different for each of these agonists. ACh oscillations are sinusoidal and initiated at the secretory pole of these morphologically and functionally polarized cells. As they spread across the cell, pronounced gradients in Ca2+ develop that persist throughout the oscillating response. CCK-8 induces a series of discrete Ca2+ transients of longer duration and lower frequency. These elevations in Ca2+ arise slowly, throughout the cells and without any detectable gradients in Ca2+. We consider that the different spatiotemporal patterns can be explained on the basis of a physiologically relevant interaction between Ins(1,4,5)P3 and protein kinase C in second messenger-mediated Ca2+ signalling.
