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
Adenosine A1 receptor mediated formation of inosito 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and accumulation of cytoplasmic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) were investigated in DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells. A strong reduction of the adenosine and N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) induced rise in [Ca2+]i was observed after blocking Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane with LaCl3. This effect of LaCl3 was not observed in the absence of extracellular Ca2+; it was not caused by reduced Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation or changed Ins(1,4,5)P3 induced Ca2+ release, or influenced by temperature. The inhibition of the CPA induced increase in [Ca2+]i by LaCl3 was strongly counteracted in the presence of ortho-vanadate, an inhibitor of plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPase. Ortho-vanadate might also reduce protein tyrosine-phosphate phosphatase activity involved in tyrosine kinase mediated phospholipase C (PLC) activation. However, ortho-vanadate and tyrphostin 25, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, did not affect the CPA induced formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3. Taken together, these results show a strong contribution of Ca2+ pumping across the plasma membrane to the regulation of [Ca2+]i mediated by adenosine A1 receptors. Na+/Ca2+ exchange only played a minor role in the initial phase of CPA induced Ca2+ metabolism as measured in low Na+ containing solution. The mechanism by which adenosine A1 receptors activate plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPase pumps does not include direct stimulation of pumps, but most likely involves an indirect pathway activated by a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
Based on the capacity to increase IP3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate), P2 purinergic agonists can be subdivided into two classes: ATP, ADP, UTP, 2deoxyATP, NAD and GTP significantly increased IP3 levels whereas ADP beta S, 2MeSATP, NADP, alpha, beta MeATP, beta, gamma MeATP and ATP alpha S had only a minor, non-significant effect. Irrespective of their potency to increase IP3, all agonists were full glycogenolytic agonists and they all increased cytosolic calcium. With ATP and NAD, IP3 increasing agonists, and 2MeSATP and ADP beta S, non-IP3 increasing agonists, we found that the initial calcium response appeared to be an 'all or none' phenomenon, small amounts of the agonists being either ineffective or equally effective as high amounts. The minimal amount of an agonist needed to initiate a calcium increase and to promote glycogenolysis was very similar. In the absence of extracellular calcium, both groups of purinergic agonists (tested with ATP and 2MeSATP) were equally able to release calcium from intracellular stores. Cells with emptied intracellular calcium stores rapidly took up extracellular calcium upon treatment with ATP or 2MeSATP, the latter being the most potent. It seems therefore that all nucleotides tested increased cytosolic calcium and activated phosphorylase in a very similar way but some nucleotides had no effect on the levels of IP3.

Abstract
1. Bradykinin caused a transient reduction of about 25% in the cyclic AMP level in forskolin prestimulated DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells (IC50: 36.4 +/- 4.9 nM) and a pronounced, sustained inhibition (40%) of the isoprenaline-stimulated cyclic AMP level (IC50: 37.5 +/- 1.1 nM). 2. The Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, mimicked both the bradykinin-induced transient reduction in the forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP level and the sustained reduction in the isoprenaline-stimulated cyclic AMP level. 3. The Ca(2+)-dependent effect on cyclic AMP induced by bradykinin was mediated solely by Ca2+ release from internal stores, since inhibition of Ca2+ entry with LaCl3 did not reduce the response to bradykinin. 4. The involvement of calmodulin-dependent enzyme activities, protein kinase C or an inhibitory GTP binding protein in the bradykinin-induced responses was excluded since a calmodulin inhibitor, calmidazolium, a PKC inhibitor, staurosporine and pertussis toxin, respectively did not affect the decline in the cyclic AMP level. 5. Bradykinin enhanced the rate of cyclic AMP breakdown in intact cells, which effect was not mimicked by ionomycin. This suggested a Ca(2+)-independent activation of phosphodiesterase activity by bradykinin in DDT1 MF-2 cells. 6. The bradykinin B1 receptor agonist, desArg9-bradykinin, did not affect cyclic AMP formation in isoprenaline prestimulated cells, while the bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists, Hoe 140 (D-Arg[Hyp3, Thi5, D-Tic7, Oic8]-BK) and D-Arg[Hyp3, Thi5,8, D-Phe7]-BK completely abolished the bradykinin response in both forskolin and isoprenaline prestimulated cells. 7. Bradykinin caused an increase in intracellular Ca2+, which was antagonized by the bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists, Hoe 140 and D-Arg[Hyp3, Thi5,8, D-Phe7]-BK. The bradykinin B2 receptor agonist,desArg9-bradykinin, did not evoke a rise in cytoplasmic Ca2 .8. It is concluded, that stimulation of bradykinin B2 receptors causes a reduction in cellular cyclic AMP in DDT1, MF-2 cells. This decline in cyclic AMP is partly mediated by a Ca2+/calmodulin independent activation of phosphodiesterase activity. The increase in [Ca2+], mediated by bradykinin B2 receptors inhibited forskolin- and isoprenaline-activated adenylyl cyclase differently, most likely by interfering with different components of the adenylyl cyclase signalling pathway.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a co-transmitter in sympathetic nerves and released from platelets, has recently been shown to stimulate growth of vascular smooth muscle cells. It might therefore contribute to the development of vascular hypertrophy seen in hypertension and atherosclerosis. We aimed at characterising the receptor mediating this mitogenic effect in rat aorta smooth muscle cells. The potency of agonists indicates a P2 purinoceptor since ATP > or = ADP >> AMP, adenosine. The P2x-receptor subtype, which is responsible for ATP induced vasoconstriction in rat aorta, does not mediate the mitogenic effect since alpha, beta-methyleneATP had no effect and beta, gamma-methyleneATP had lower potency than ATP. The P2Y-receptor subtype was excluded since the selective agonist 2-methylthioATP had weak effect with lower potency than ATP. When we studied the involvement of other nucleotides similar effects were seen of the purines ATP, GTP and ITP; also the pyrimidine UTP had powerful mitogenic effects (Emax = 52% of ATP) with similar potency. Nucleotides with fewer phosphate groups showed a stepwise fall in mitogenic effect. This indicates involvement of a nucleotide-receptor (P2U). Ap4A were of equal potency and effect as ATP. There was strong correlation between the mitogenic effects of the nucleotides and analogues with both 45Ca(2+)-influx and inositol phosphate (IP) production, indicating that they may participate in mediating the mitogenic response. This is the first study describing the potencies for the mitogenic effects of the selective ATP-analogues and other nucleotides in vascular smooth muscle cells. The receptor characterisation indicates a nucleotide-receptor similar to the receptor which stimulates 45Ca(2+)-influx and inositol phosphate-formation in rat aorta smooth muscle cells. Substances related to ATP such as GTP, ITP, UTP and Ap4A which also can be released extracellularly in vivo stimulate mitogenesis of rat aorta smooth muscle cells through the same receptor.

Abstract
This study was carried out to identify the cellular component activating the histamine-stimulated Ca2+ entry in vas-deferens-derived DDT1 MF-2 cells. H1-histaminoceptor stimulation resulted in a rise in intracellular Ca2+ concentration, caused by Ca2+ release from inositol phosphate-sensitive Ca2+ stores and Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, accompanied by a transient Ca(2+)-activated outward K+ current. The histamine-evoked K+ current was still observed after preventing inositol phosphate-induced Ca2+ mobilization by intracellularly applied heparin. This current was activated by Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space, because it was abolished in the presence of the Ca(2+)-channel blocker La3+ or under Ca(2+)-free conditions. H1-histaminoceptor-activated Ca2+ entry was also observed in the presence of intracellularly applied Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, depleting their respective Ca2+ stores and pre-activating the inositol phosphate-regulated Ca2+ entry. Thus the ability of histamine to activate Ca2+ entry independently of Ca2+ mobilization and the formation of inositol phosphates suggests that another component is involved to initiate the Ca(2+)-entry process. It was observed that H1-histaminoceptor stimulation resulted in a pronounced release of arachidonic acid (AA) in DDT1 MF-2 cells. Exogenously applied AA induced a concentration-dependent increase in internal Ca2+ due to activation of Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space. Slow inactivation of the AA-sensitive Ca2+ channels is suggested by the slow decline in Ca2+ entry. In accord, the histamine-induced Ca2+ entry was not observed with AA-pre-activated Ca2+ channels. Inhibition of the lipoxygenase and cyclo-oxygenase pathway did not affect the AA-induced Ca2+ and the concomitant K+ current were decreased in the presence of AA and caused by Ca2+ mobilization from internal stores. Blocking this internal Ca2+ release by heparin, in the presence of AA, resulted in abolition of the histamine-induced Ca(2+)-regulated K+ current. These observations show that AA, released on H1-histaminoceptor stimulation in DDT1 MF-2 cells, is functioning as a second messenger to activate plasma-membrane Ca2+ channels promoting Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space.

Abstract
1. Stimulation of P2U-purinoceptors with UTP or histamine H1-receptors with histamine gave rise to the formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) in DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells. 2. Stimulation of P2U-purinoceptors or histamine H1-receptors caused an increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+, consisting of an initial peak, representing the release of Ca2+ from internal stores and a sustained phase representing Ca2+ influx. 3. The P2U-purinoceptor-mediated Ca(2+)-entry mechanism was more sensitive to UTP than Ca(2+)-mobilization (EC50: 3.3 microM +/- 0.4 microM vs 55.1 microM +/- 9.2 microM), in contrast to these processes activated by histamine H1-receptors (EC50: 5.8 microM +/- 0.6 microM vs 3.1 microM +/- 0.5 microM). 4. Pre-stimulation of cells with several adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) elevating agents, reduced the histamine H1-receptor-mediated formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Forskolin completely inhibited Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation (IC50: 158 +/- 24 nM) whereas Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 formation was inhibited by only 45% (IC50: 173 +/- 16 nM). The P2U-purinoceptor-mediated production of these inositol phosphates was not affected by cyclic AMP. 5. Forskolin and isoprenaline reduced the histamine-induced increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+, as measured in Ca2+ containing medium and in nominally Ca(2+)-free medium but did not change the UTP-induced increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+. 6. These results clearly demonstrate that cyclic AMP differentially regulates components of the histamine induced phospholipase C signal transduction pathway. Furthermore, cyclic AMP does not affect the phospholipase C pathway activated by stimulation of P2U-purinoceptors in DDT1 MF-2 cells.

Abstract
1. The action of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP, 10 microM) was studied in single patch-clamped smooth muscle cells of rat portal vein where the free internal Ca2+ concentration in the cell (Cai) was estimated by the emission from the dye indo-1. 2. In the presence of 20 microM gallopamil (D600), a blocker of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels, ATP applied to cells held at a holding potential of -60 mV evoked a transient inward current and an increase in Cai. 3. The rise in Cai evoked by ATP was completely suppressed in the absence of external Ca2+ although a transient inward current was still observed. 4. ATP-induced responses were not modified by the addition of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor antagonist, heparin (1 mM) in the pipette solution. 5. In the presence of caffeine (5 mM) or ryanodine (100 microM) in the pipette solution, which deplete the intracellular Ca2+ store, the ATP-induced Cai rise was greatly reduced. 6. Our results suggest that in single cells from rat portal vein, ATP releases Ca2+ from intracellular stores without involving InsP3, but via a Ca2+ release mechanism activated by Ca2+ influx through ATP-gated channels.

Abstract
The P2U purinoceptor mediated effect on cellular cAMP was investigated in DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells. Stimulation of these receptors by ATP or UTP caused a pronounced decrease of about 50% in cellular cAMP levels in forskolin or isoprenaline pretreated cells. This action of the nucleotides was concentration dependent with an IC50 of 9.4 +/- 0.2 microM and 29.0 +/- 0.5 microM for UTP and ATP, respectively and was inhibited by the P2-purinoceptor antagonist suramin. The cAMP level appeared to be modified by intracellular Ca2+, represented by an initial decline in cAMP. Neither inactivation of protein kinase C by staurosporine nor elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentrations interfered with the sustained decrease in cAMP levels induced by ATP or UTP, showing that this effect is not mediated via the phospholipase C pathway known to be activated after P2U purinoceptor stimulation in DDT1 MF-2 cells. Pertussis toxin inhibited the action of these nucleotides on the cellular cAMP level. It can be concluded that the P2U purinoceptor in DDT1 MF-2 cells is coupled to different G-proteins, activating phospholipase C and inhibiting adenylyl cyclase activity.

Abstract
Mechanical stimulation of one mammary tumor cell in culture induced an increase in its intracellular calcium concentration which spread to surrounding cells. The increase in calcium can also be induced by addition of a solution in which cultured mammary tumor cells were stimulated by repeated pipetting (solution after pipetting cells, SAPC). The activity of the SAPC was completely abolished by treatment with snake venom phosphodiesterase or pyrophosphatase. Uridine triphosphate (UTP), uridine diphosphate (UDP) and ATP (1 microM each) were detected in the SAPC, whereas 5'-UMP and 5'-AMP were produced by phosphodiesterase digestion. A mixture of UTP, UDP and ATP (1 microM each) elicited a calcium response which was comparable to that induced by SAPC, while UTP, UDP or ATP alone at 1 microM elicited a small increase in calcium concentration in mammary tumor cells. Suramin, a competitive antagonist of P2 purinoceptors, diminished the spreading of the calcium wave induced by mechanical stimulation. It also blocked the responses to SAPC, UTP, UDP and ATP. These findings suggest that the mechanical stimulation results in the release of UTP, UDP and ATP into the extracellular space which mediates induction of the spreading calcium response via P2U-type purinoceptors.

Abstract
1. The effect on intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) of simultaneous activation of receptors coupled to phospholipase C via pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive and -insensitive G-proteins has been investigated in the hamster vas deferens smooth muscle cell line, DDT1MF-2. 2. In fura-2-loaded DDT1MF-2 cells, activation of adenosine A1-receptors (which are linked to PTX-sensitive G-proteins) with a maximal concentration of N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA; 300 nM) increased [Ca2+]i from 121 +/- 5 nM to 254 +/- 20 nM (n = 8). These experiments were performed in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Stimulation of histamine H1-receptors (which are linked to PTX-insensitive G-proteins) with a low concentration of histamine (1 microM) increased [Ca2+]i from 128 +/- 8 nM to 150 +/- 13 nM (n = 8). When combined, CPA (300 nM) and histamine (1 microM) synergistically raised [Ca2+]i from 134 +/- 6 nM to 607 +/- 61 nM (n = 8). 3. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ (experiments performed in Ca(2+)-free buffer containing 0.1 mM EGTA) had no effect on the synergistic interaction between CPA (300 nM) and histamine (1 microM). 4. The addition of maximal concentrations of CPA (300 nM) and histamine (100 microM) resulted in a rise in [Ca2+]i which was additive when compared to the Ca2+ responses obtained with the two agonists alone. Low (30 nM) and subthreshold (3 nM) concentrations of CPA did not alter the Ca2+ response elicited by maximal concentrations of histamine (100 microM). 5. Subthreshold concentrations of CPA (3 nM) and low concentrations of histamine (1 microM) elicited synergistic rises in [Ca2+]i. 6 Synergistic Ca2+ responses were not observed between histamine Hl- and ATP-receptors when cells were simultaneously stimulated with either 1 microM or 10 microM of each agonist.7 These data suggest that adenosine A1-receptors linked to PTX-sensitive G-protein(s) and histamine H14-receptors linked to PTX-insensitive G-proteins interact synergistically to raise [Ca2+]i. In contrast,activation of ATP-receptors which are linked to PTX-insensitive G-protein(s) do not interact synergically with histamine H1-receptors.

Abstract
1. The effect of a range of adenosine receptor agonists on intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) has been studied in the hamster vas deferens smooth muscle cell line DDT1MF-2. 2. Adenosine receptor agonists elicited a rapid and maintained increase in [Ca2+]i in fura-2 loaded DDT1MF-2 cells. The initial rise could be maintained in the absence of extracellular calcium, whereas the maintained or plateau phase was dependent upon the presence of extracellular calcium and appeared to be associated with calcium influx. The rank order of agonist potencies was N6-cyclopentyladenosine > 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine > 2-chloroadenosine > adenosine. 3. The response to 2-chloroadenosine was antagonized by the antagonists 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX, KD 0.14 nM) and 8-phenyltheophylline (KD 112 nM). 4. Pretreatment with the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor AA861 (20 microM) produced only a small (14 +/- 2%) inhibition of the [Ca2+]i response elicted by N6-cyclopentyladenosine (300 nM), in nominally Ca(2+)-free buffer containing 0.1 mM EGTA. The cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin (2 microM) was without effect. 5. The Ca(2+)-influx associated with the plateau phase required the continued presence of agonist on the receptor. The antagonist DPCPX (100 nM) attenuated the rise in [Ca2+]i observed when extracellular Ca2+ was re-applied after the cells had been stimulated with N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA; 300 nM) in experiments initiated in nominally Ca(2+)-free buffer. 6. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin (200 ng ml-1 for 4 h) inhibited the CPA (100 nM) stimulated intracellular Ca2+ release and Ca2+ influx but was without effect on the response to histamine (100 microM). 7.These data suggest that adenosine A(1)-receptor activation in DDT(1)MF-2 cells stimulates release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores and influx of extracellular Ca(2+) through Ca(2+) entry pathways in the plasma membrane which required the continued presence of agonist on the receptor.

Abstract
The free calcium concentrations in the nucleus ([Ca2+]n) and in the cytoplasm ([Ca2+]c) of cultured DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells were estimated using the fluorescent dye indo-1. With the use of confocal microscopy, line scans were made during the onset and the differential rise of the Ca2+ signal elicited by the agonists histamine and ATP. The results confirm our earlier findings that in these cells [Ca2+]n at rest was lower than [Ca2+]c. The present experiments show that this gradient over the nuclear envelope was also preserved in Ca(2+)-free solution containing 2 mM EGTA, underlining the selective barrier function of the nuclear envelope. During stimulation with histamine, an early Ca2+ rise in the vicinity of the nuclear envelope was found in contrast to the delayed Ca2+ rise 2 microns away on both sides of the envelope. This suggests the release of Ca2+ stored in the envelope and the perinuclear sarcoplasmic reticulum. The time course for reaching a uniform Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]u = [Ca2+]n = [Ca2+]c) in the nuclear and cytosolic compartment varied with the agonist used for stimulation and was dependent on the external Ca2+ concentration. The value of this uniform Ca2+ concentration itself was, however, independent of the type of stimulation. After reaching [Ca2+]u, a further rise occurred with [Ca2+]n becoming larger than [Ca2+]c. It is postulated that a critical Ca2+ concentration must be reached to induce this differential Ca2+ rise by releasing Ca2+ from an intranuclear Ca2+ store.

Abstract
1. The specificity of intracellular Ca2+ stores to Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonists was studied in DDT1 MF-2 vas deferens cells of the Syrian hamster. 2. Application of histamine (100 microM) or ATP (100 microM) to the DDT1 MF-2 cells caused an initial increase of intracellular Ca2+ followed by a lower phase as measured by using Indo-1 as fluorescent probe at 22 degrees C. The basal Ca2+ level (146 nM) was enhanced to 309 nM by histamine and to 379 nM by ATP. 3. A transient rise in intracellular Ca2+ lasting for about 2 min was measured in the presence of histamine or ATP in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. The basal Ca2+ level (78 nM) was increased to 128 nM by histamine and to 145 nM by ATP. 4. A transient hyperpolarization was elicited in single cells as measured with microelectrodes by both agonists under Ca(2+)-free conditions with a similar time course as the change in internal Ca2+. The hyperpolarization observed in the presence of histamine amounted to 23 mV and 31 mV with ATP. The histamine-induced responses were abolished by the H1 histaminoceptor antagonist mepyramine (10 microM) and the responses evoked by ATP were blocked by the P2 purinoceptor antagonist suramin (300 microM). 5. A second internal Ca2+ response could only be evoked under Ca(2+)-free conditions by applying a higher agonist concentration or after replenishing the intracellular stores with Ca2+ from the extracellular space. 6. A second addition of an optimal concentration (100 microM) of the agonist to the cells under Ca(2+)-free conditions did not evoke mobilization of internal Ca2+ or hyperpolarization, but resulted in a rise of the cellular inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate content (Ins(1,4,5)P3) as determined by a radioligand binding assay. 7. The cells responded to both agonists (100 microM) with a transient Ca2+ response if successively applied at a maximal effective concentration (100 microM) under Ca(2+)-free conditions. 8. Simultaneous stimulation of H1 histaminoceptors and P2 purinoceptors resulted in the absence of external Ca2+ in an additional increase in internal Ca2+ represented by the amplitude and area of the response and in an increased response area of the hyperpolarization.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
In dissociated cells from chick embryos or from chick limb buds, acetylcholine (ACh) induced an increase in cellular levels of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-P3) and of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins-P4). The concentration of Ins-P3 was enhanced transiently, whereas the level of Ins-P4 remained elevated for at least 20 min after addition of ACh. In most cases the increase in Ins-P4 levels was more pronounced than that of Ins-P3 levels. The inhibition of the ACh-induced inositol-phosphate response by atropine (half-maximal inhibition at 10 nM) indicates the involvement of muscarinic receptors, which in chick embryo cells induce a transient rise and a following persistent elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ activity (G. Oettling et al. (1989) J. Dev. Physiol. 12, 85-94). Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) elicited a similar transient rise in cytosolic Ca2+ activity, however, without a subsequent plateau. ATP also caused an increase in inositol-oligophosphate levels. Thus, both muscarinic and purinergic receptors in chick embryo cells are coupled to phospholipase C. The enzymatically formed Ins-P3 mediates the release of Ca2+ from internal stores. The Ca2+ signal could be involved in embryonic cell migration during morphogenesis.

Abstract
Rat aortic smooth muscle rings without endothelial cells were subjected to alpha 1-adrenoceptor stimulation. We measured the contractile state of the smooth muscle cells and the formation of inositol phosphates (InsPs) on receptor stimulation. Using different extracellular calcium-containing solutions (2.5 mM, 0.1 mM and Ca(2+)-free) enabled us to discriminate three contractile phases after noradrenaline (10(-5) M) stimulation: an initial fast contraction (15 s) and a fast and slow component of the sustained contraction, which was established 10 min after stimulation. Under normal calcium conditions in the presence of 10 mM LiCl the formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was increased predominantly after stimulation, while the formation of Ins(1,3,4)P3, Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, Ins(3,4,5,6)P4 and InsP5/InsP6 was also stimulated. The cAMP-inducing agent forskolin (0.5 microM) induced a relaxation of the basal tone and increased the level of the InsP4 isomers. The noradrenaline-induced contractile responses as well as the formation of InsP fractions mentioned were inhibited by forskolin. Further an increase in the formation of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate was observed. It is concluded that in rat aorta InsPs and in particular Ins(1,4,5)P3 is involved in the different contractile phases caused by alpha 1-adrenoceptor stimulation. The relaxation induced by forskolin under these circumstances could be explained by an interaction of forskolin, most likely via the formation of cAMP, with InsPs formation at the level of phospholipase C activation.

Abstract
The effect of alpha 1-adrenoceptor stimulation on inositol phosphates (InsPs), intracellular Ca2+ and membrane current was measured in vas deferens DDT1 MF-2 cells. The InsPs were analyzed after labelling the cells with [3H]myo-inositol using high performance liquid chromatography and the internal Ca2+ concentration was determined by measuring fluorescence using Indo-1 as probe. Noradrenaline stimulated the formation of inositol mono-, bis-, tris- and tetrakisphosphate (InsP, InsP2, InsP3 and InsP1) concentration-dependently in the presence of LiCl, but no changes occurred in the formation of inositol pentakis- and hexakisphosphate (InsP5 and InsP6). Various isomers of InsP3 and InsP4 were detected after noradrenaline (10(-5) M) stimulation (without LiCl). Only the formation of the putative second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation was increased in the presence of noradrenaline. The internal Ca2+ concentration was enhanced both in the presence and absence of external Ca2+ upon addition of noradrenaline. The response in the presence of extracellular Ca2+ was not affected by diltiazem (10(-5) M). The increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+ could be repeatedly evoked, but could be elicited only once under Ca2(+)-free conditions. The relation between the noradrenaline concentration and the rise in internal Ca2+ was similar to that obtained for the InsP formation. Half-maximal effects were obtained at about 1 microM. The membrane current measured in these cells by using the whole-cell patch-clamp method was not changed by the agonist (10(-5) M). These results suggest that noradrenaline acts on DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells, represented by the formation of InsP3 and enhancement of internal Ca2+ originating from internal structures, via the alpha 1B-adrenoceptor subtype.
