Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) make up only a small fraction of cellular phospholipids, yet they control almost all aspects of a cell's life and death. These lipids gained tremendous research interest as plasma membrane signaling molecules when discovered in the 1970s and 1980s. Research in the last 15 years has added a wide range of biological processes regulated by PIs, turning these lipids into one of the most universal signaling entities in eukaryotic cells. PIs control organelle biology by regulating vesicular trafficking, but they also modulate lipid distribution and metabolism via their close relationship with lipid transfer proteins. PIs regulate ion channels, pumps, and transporters and control both endocytic and exocytic processes. The nuclear phosphoinositides have grown from being an epiphenomenon to a research area of its own. As expected from such pleiotropic regulators, derangements of phosphoinositide metabolism are responsible for a number of human diseases ranging from rare genetic disorders to the most common ones such as cancer, obesity, and diabetes. Moreover, it is increasingly evident that a number of infectious agents hijack the PI regulatory systems of host cells for their intracellular movements, replication, and assembly. As a result, PI converting enzymes began to be noticed by pharmaceutical companies as potential therapeutic targets. This review is an attempt to give an overview of this enormous research field focusing on major developments in diverse areas of basic science linked to cellular physiology and disease.

Abstract
The human P2Y(1) receptor was expressed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain MPY578q5, which is engineered to couple to mammalian G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and requires agonist-induced activation for growth. A range of known P2Y(1) receptor agonists were examined with the yeast growth assay system, and the results were validated by comparing with potencies in the transfected 1321N1 astrocytoma cell line, in which calcium mobilization was measured with a FLIPR (fluorescence-imaging plate reader). The data were also compared with those from phospholipase C activation and radioligand binding with the use of a newly available radioligand [H]MRS2279 (2-chloro- N-methyl-(N)-methanocarba-2'-deoxyadenosine-3',5'-bisphosphate). In the yeast growth assay, the rank order of potency of 2-MeSADP (2-methylthioadenosine 5'-diphosphate), ADP (adenosine 5'-diphosphate), and ATP (adenosine 5'-triphosphate) is the same as those in other assay systems, i.e., 2-MeSADP>ADP>ATP. The P2Y(1)-selective antagonist MRS2179 (N-methyl-2-deoxyadenosine-3',5'-bisphosphate) was shown to act as an antagonist with similar potency in all systems. The results suggest that the yeast expression system is suitable for screening P2Y(1) receptor ligands, both agonists and antagonists. The yeast system should be useful for random mutagenesis of GPCRs to identify mutants with certain properties, such as selective potency enhancement for small synthetic molecules and constitutive activity.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) constitute a minor fraction of total cellular lipids in all eukaryotic cells. They fulfill many important functions through interaction with a wide range of cellular proteins. Members of distinct inositol lipid kinase families catalyze the synthesis of these phospholipids from phosphatidylinositol. The hydrolysis of PIs involves phosphatases and isoforms of PI-specific phospholipase C. Although our knowledge of the roles played by plant PIs is clearly limited at present, there is no doubt that they are involved in many physiological processes during plant growth and development. In this review, we concentrate on inositol lipid-metabolizing enzymes from the model plant Arabidopsis for which biochemical characterization data are available, namely the inositol lipid kinases and PI-specific phospholipase Cs. The biochemical properties and structure of characterized and genome-predicted isoforms are presented and compared with those of the animal enzymes to show that the plant enzymes have some features clearly unique to this kingdom.

Abstract
1. We reported previously that bisphosphate derivatives of adenosine are antagonists of the P2Y(1) receptor and that modification of the ribose in these analogues is tolerated in the P2Y(1) receptor binding pharmacophore. 2. Here we delineate the pharmacological activity of one such non-nucleotide molecule, 2-chloro N(6)-methyl-(N)-methanocarba-2'-deoxyadenosine-3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS2279), in which the ribose is replaced by a cyclopentane ring constrained in the (N)-conformation by a cyclopropane moiety. 3. MRS2279 antagonized 2MeSADP-stimulated inositol phosphate formation in turkey erythrocyte membranes with competitive kinetics (pK(B)=7.75). High affinity competitive antagonism by MRS2279 was also observed at the human P2Y(1) receptor (pK(B)=8.10) stably expressed in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. Antagonism was specific for the P2Y(1) receptor since MRS2279 had no effect on activation of the human P2Y(2), P2Y(4), P2Y(6), or P2Y(11) receptors by their cognate agonists. 4. MRS2279 also did not block the capacity of ADP to act through the Gi/adenylyl cyclase linked P2Y receptor of platelets to inhibit cyclic AMP accumulation. 5. In contrast, the P2Y(1) receptor is known to be obligatory in the process of ADP-induced platelet aggregation, and MRS2279 competitively inhibited ADP-promoted platelet aggregation with an apparent affinity (pK(B)=8.05) similar to that observed at the human P2Y(1) receptor heterologously expressed in 1321N1 cells. 6. Taken together these results illustrate selective high affinity antagonism of the P2Y(1) receptor by a non-nucleotide molecule that should prove useful for pharmacological delineation of this receptor in various tissues.

Abstract
RGS proteins (regulators of G protein signaling) attenuate heterotrimeric G protein signaling by functioning as both GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) and inhibitors of G protein/effector interaction. RGS2 has been shown to regulate Galpha(q)-mediated inositol lipid signaling. Although purified RGS2 blocks PLC-beta activation by the nonhydrolyzable GTP analog guanosine 5'-O-thiophosphate (GTPgammaS), its capacity to regulate inositol lipid signaling under conditions where GTPase-promoted hydrolysis of GTP is operative has not been fully explored. Utilizing the turkey erythrocyte membrane model of inositol lipid signaling, we investigated regulation by RGS2 of both GTP and GTPgammaS-stimulated Galpha(11) signaling. Different inhibitory potencies of RGS2 were observed under conditions assessing its activity as a GAP versus as an effector antagonist; i.e. RGS2 was a 10-20-fold more potent inhibitor of aluminum fluoride and GTP-stimulated PLC-betat activity than of GTPgammaS-promoted PLC-betat activity. We also examined whether RGS2 was regulated by downstream components of the inositol lipid signaling pathway. RGS2 was phosphorylated by PKC in vitro to a stoichiometry of approximately unity by both a mixture of PKC isozymes and individual calcium and phospholipid-dependent PKC isoforms. Moreover, RGS2 was phosphorylated in intact COS7 cells in response to PKC activation by 4beta-phorbol 12beta-myristate 13alpha-acetate and, to a lesser extent, by the P2Y(2) receptor agonist UTP. In vitro phosphorylation of RGS2 by PKC decreased its capacity to attenuate both GTP and GTPgammaS-stimulated PLC-betat activation, with the extent of attenuation correlating with the level of RGS2 phosphorylation. A phosphorylation-dependent inhibition of RGS2 GAP activity was also observed in proteoliposomes reconstituted with purified P2Y(1) receptor and Galpha(q)betagamma. These results identify for the first time a phosphorylation-induced change in the activity of an RGS protein and suggest a mechanism for potentiation of inositol lipid signaling by PKC.

Abstract
Since the beginning of purinoceptor research turkey erythrocytes have been widely used as the model systems for studying the pharmacology of P2Y1 nucleotide receptors. In this report the statistical analysis of the activity parameters of several purinoceptor agonists and antagonists in the turkey erythrocytes and P2Y1 receptor transfected cells is presented. As a results of this analysis several differences in the ligand activity orders measured in these biological systems were found. These data indicate that the receptors expressed in turkey erythrocytes and P2Y1 transfected cells are probably not the same. Whether it has to do with co-expression of several purinoceptor subtypes in turkey erythrocytes or novel P2Y receptors needs the further investigation.

Abstract
Galpha15 activates phospholipase Cbeta in response to the greatest variety of agonist-stimulated heptahelical receptors among the four Gq class G-protein alpha subunits expressed in mammals. Galpha15 is primarily expressed in hematopoietic cells in fetal and adult mice. We disrupted the Galpha15 gene by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells to identify its biological functions. Surprisingly, hematopoiesis was normal in Galpha15(-/-) mice, Galpha15(-/-) Galphaq(-/-) double-knockout mice (which express only Galpha11 in most hematopoietic cells), and Galpha11(-/-) mice, suggesting functional redundancy in Gq class signaling. Inflammatory challenges, including thioglycolate-induced peritonitis and infection with Trichinella spiralis, stimulated similar responses in Galpha15(-/-) adults and wild-type siblings. Agonist-stimulated Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores was assayed to identify signaling defects in primary cultures of thioglycolate-elicited macrophages isolated from Galpha15(-/-) mice. C5a-stimulated phosphoinositide accumulation and Ca(2+) release was significantly reduced in Galpha15(-/-) macrophages. Ca(2+) signaling was abolished only in mutant cells pretreated with pertussis toxin, suggesting that the C5a receptor couples to both Galpha15 and Galphai in vivo. Signaling evoked by other receptors coupled by Gq class alpha subunits appeared normal in Galpha15(-/-) macrophages. Despite discrete signaling defects, compensation by coexpressed Gq and/or Gi class alpha subunits may suppress abnormalities in Galpha15-deficient mice.

Abstract
A family of G protein-coupled P2Y receptors that are activated by adenine and uridine nucleotides has been identified recently. Degenerate primers based on conserved sequences in these P2Y receptors were used to amplify turkey DNA, which was used to isolate the complete coding sequence of a cDNA that encodes a novel G protein-coupled receptor. Stable expression of this avian cDNA in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells resulted in the conveyance of marked inositol phosphate responses to various nucleotides. Although this cloned avian receptor exhibited its highest homology to the previously cloned mammalian P2Y4 receptor, its pharmacological selectivity was not consistent with the avian receptor's being a species homologue of the P2Y4 receptor. That is, whereas the P2Y4 receptor is selectively activated by UTP and is not activated by ATP or Ap4A, the novel avian receptor was potently activated by ATP and Ap4A as well as by UTP. Taken together, these results describe the identification of an avian phospholipase C-coupled P2Y receptor that, like the mammalian P2Y2 receptor, is activated by both adenine and uridine nucleotides.

Abstract
The functional properties of the G protein-coupled P2Y1 receptor were investigated in Xenopus oocytes. Incubation of oocytes expressing either the human or turkey P2Y1 receptor with adenine nucleotide agonists resulted in an increase in Cl- current and activation of a novel cation current with an inwardly rectifying current-voltage relationship. Activation of either the human P2Y2 (P2U-purinergic) or M1 muscarinic receptor expressed in oocytes resulted in an increase in Cl- current similar to that observed in P2Y1 receptor-expressing oocytes but had no effect on cation current. P2 receptor agonists stimulated both the cation current and Cl- current in P2Y1 receptor-expressing oocytes with EC50 values and an order of potency (2-methylthioadenosine diphosphate > 2-methylthioadenosine triphosphate (2MeSATP) > ATP > UTP) that were similar to those previously observed for activation of phospholipase C in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells stably expressing the human or turkey P2Y1 receptor. The P2Y receptor antagonists suramin and pyridoxal phosphate 6-azophenyl-2'-4'-disulfonic acid both shifted to the right the concentration-response relationship for 2MeSATP for stimulation of oocyte currents. Although injection of oocytes with either GDPbetaS (guanyl-5'-yl thiophosphate) or GTPgammaS (guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate) resulted in loss of adenine nucleotide-promoted Cl- channel activation, neither guanine nucleotide altered the 2MeSATP-stimulated cation current. These data are consistent with the view that activation of the novel cation current by the P2Y1 receptor does not involve a G protein. Tail current analysis of the novel P2Y1 receptor-associated cation conductance revealed that the open channel current-voltage relationship was outwardly rectifying with a reversal potential of -38 mV for the turkey P2Y1 receptor and -36 mV for the human P2Y1 receptor. Replacement of Na+ with K+ ions in the bathing solution produced a shift in reversal potential to near zero mV, but significant outward rectification remained. The cation current was not permeable to either Ca2+ or Ba2+ and exhibited steady-state inactivation at holding potentials below -60 mV. These results indicate that the P2Y1 receptor exhibits both metabotropic properties and a novel G protein-independent ionotropic response when expressed in Xenopus oocytes.

Abstract
The interaction of the cyclic AMP and inositol lipid signalling systems was studied in turkey erythrocytes. Elevation of intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations by pretreatment of the cells with forskolin or 8-Br-cAMP resulted in a marked decrease in responsiveness of phospholipase C to G-protein activators in membranes prepared from treated cells. Decreases in responsiveness occurred with a t1/2 of approximately 5 min and were reversible after transfer of desensitized cells to drug-free medium. Pretreatment of the cells with forskolin inhibited inositol phosphate formation in a concentration-dependent manner and addition of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX 93-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine) during pretreatment increased the capacity of forskolin to desensitize phospholipase C activity. IBMX also produced a similar potentiation of forskolin-stimulated accumulation of cyclic AMP in turkey erythrocytes. Isoproterenol pretreatment of the cells induced, like forskolin, partial inhibition of inositol phosphate generation in response to G-protein activators and to P2y purinoceptor and beta-adrenoceptor agonists. The capacity of isoproterenol to induce desensitization of phospholipase C activity also was increased by the presence of IBMX during pretreatment of the cells. H8 (N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide), an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-regulated protein kinase, completely prevented forskolin-induced desensitization but only partially blocked isoproterenol-induced desensitization. These results indicate that the cyclic AMP signalling cascade has a major inhibitory influence on receptor- and G-protein-activated inositol lipid signaling.

Abstract
1. We sought to reconstitute and characterize G-protein linked phosphatidyl-D-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2)-directed phospholipase C (PLC) isoform activity in pig aortic vascular smooth muscle. 2. Six soluble PLC isoforms, namely gamma 1, delta 1 and beta 1 to beta 4 were partially separated by heparin affinity chromatography and were identified by Western blotting using specific antibodies. 3. In separate experiments, PLC activity was measured in the eluted fractions. Four of the partially resolved PLC isoforms gamma 1, beta 4, beta 2 and beta 1, showed corresponding activity using exogenous [3H]-PIP2 as substrate. 4. The isolated soluble PLC isoforms were reconstituted with receptors and guanyl nucleotide regulatory proteins (G-proteins) by addition of plasma membranes, the phospholipids which had been prelabelled with [3H]-myo-inositol. When so reconstituted PLC beta 2, beta 3 and beta 4 were inhibited (40 +/- 9, 47 +/- 12 and 40 +/- 5% respectively n = 12, +/-s.e.mean and each P < 0.05) by the addition of 1 mM guanosine 5'[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppG). 5. By contrast, when plasma membranes were preincubated with pertussis toxin to inhibit the activity of G-protein subunits G alpha i/alpha o the activities of PLC beta 2, beta 3 and beta 4 were stimulated (46 +/- 11, 31 +/- 9 and 37 +/- 8% respectively, n = 12, +/- s.e.mean and each P < 0.05) by the addition of p[NH]ppG. 6. Using well resolved fractions containing only PLC beta 3, time-dependent activity in the presence of p[NH]ppG was measurable only with membranes pretreated with pertussis toxin. 7. PLC beta 3 activity, measured with pertussis pretreated membranes, showed a dose-dependent increase in the presence of p[NH]ppG or guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]). This increase with 10 microM p[NH]ppG or GTP[S] 10% +/- 4 and 12% +/- 5 respectively (both P < 0.05 vs control without GTP analogue +/- s.e.mean, n = 10) was abolished by 50 microM guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]) which also reduced constitutive PLC beta 3 activity by 9% +/- 4. 8. G-protein antibodies were used to neutralize PLC activity. Antibody to G alpha q/alpha 11, added to membrane fractions pretreated with pertussis toxin and assayed with GTP[S], reduced PLC beta 3 activity by 21% +/- 6 P < 0.02, n = 6, but was without effect on non-pertussis pretreated membranes. Antibodies to G alpha i1/alpha i2 had no effect. Antibodies to G-protein beta subunits had no effect on PLC beta 3 activity with pertussis pretreated preparations but activity without pertussis pretreatment was increased by 30% +/- 10, P < 0.03, n = 6. All results were expressed as % change from controls containing rabbit IgG. 9. In conclusion, pig aortic vascular smooth muscle contains six PLC isoforms. Activation of pertussis sensitive G-protein by GTP analogues results in inhibition of PLC beta 3 activity from liberated G-protein beta gamma subunits. Stimulation of PLC beta 3 activity is associated with a G-protein of the G alpha q family acting through the alpha subunit. The results suggest that the G-protein linked PLC beta isoforms in vascular smooth muscle demonstrate dual regulation by an inhibitory pertussis-sensitive pathway and a stimulatory G-protein of the G alpha q family, which is the case for PLC beta 3. This dual regulation is analogous to that of adenyl cyclase.

Abstract
Activation of the P2Y purinoceptor on turkey erythrocytes results in a G11-mediated activation of a phospholipase C-beta isoenzyme and hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides. The role of the protein kinase C and Ca(2+)-mobilizing arms of the inositol lipid signalling cascade in P2Y purinoceptor-induced desensitization of phospholipase C has been examined using erythrocytes as a model system. Preincubation of intact erythrocytes with either P2Y purinoceptor agonist, ADP beta S, or the protein kinase C-activating phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate, 13 acetate (PMA), resulted in a time of preincubation-dependent decrease in guanine nucleotide-, P2Y purinoceptor-, and beta-adrenoceptor-stimulated phospholipase C activities in membranes isolated from these cells. The extent of heterologous desensitization induced by ADP beta S and PMA were additive suggesting that they did not share a common mechanism. A lack of involvement of activation of protein kinase C in P2Y purinoceptor-induced heterologous desensitization was further supported by the observation that although protein kinase C inhibitors or down-regulation of protein kinase C resulted in a loss of PMA-induced desensitization, neither treatment affected the extent of P2Y purinoceptor-induced desensitization. In addition, elevation of intracellular Ca2+ or prevention of its elevation did not induce heterologous desensitization and had no effect on the desensitization induced by ADP beta S. Thus, neither the protein kinase C nor Ca2+ mobilizing arms of the inositol lipid signalling pathway appear to be involved in P2Y purinoceptor promoted heterologous desensitization of phospholipase C. These results are consistent with the existence of a novel feedback pathway for agonist-induced heterologous desensitization of a second messenger generating enzyme. Preincubation of cells with ADP beta S or the beta-adrenoceptor agonist, isoproterenol, followed by rechallenge with each of the receptor agonists revealed that receptor-specific desensitization occurs in addition to heterologous desensitization. Thus, multiple mechanisms account for agonist-induced desensitization of the inositol lipid signalling system of turkey erythrocytes.

Abstract
D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] inhibits human red blood cell (RBC) Ca(2+)-stimulable, Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Ca(2+)-ATPase) activity in vitro. Because we have previously shown that adrenergic receptors exist on the human mature RBC membrane and can modulate Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, we examined the possibility that a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (G protein) mediated the Ins(1,4,5)P3 effect. Guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotrisphosphate) (GTP gamma S) 10(-4) mol/L also inhibited RBC Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. Pertussis toxin 200 ng/mL blocked the effects of both Ins(1,4,5)P3 and GTP gamma S on Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. In separate studies, pertussis toxin-catalyzed adenosine diphosphate (ADP) ribosylation was shown to occur in RBC membranes under conditions in which measurements of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity were performed. When Ins(1,4,5)P3 10(-7) mol/L and GTP gamma S 10(-6) mol/L were added to membranes concurrently, their inhibitory actions on the enzyme were additive. At greater concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (10(-6) to 10(-5) mol/L) and GTP gamma S (10(-4) mol/L), the inositol phosphate reversed the inhibitory effect of GTP gamma S. These observations indicate that the novel effect of Ins(1,4,5)P3 on the activity of a plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase depends at least in part on the action of a pertussis toxin-susceptible G protein.

Abstract
In the cells of higher eukaryotic organisms, there are several messenger pathways of intracellular signal transduction, such as the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate/Ca2+ signal, voltage-dependent and -independent Ca2+ channels, adenylate cyclase/cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate, guanylate cyclase/cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate, diacylglycerol/protein kinase C, and growth factors/tyrosine kinase/tyrosine phosphatase. These pathways are present in different cell types and impinge on each other for the modulation of the cell function. Ca2+ is one of the most ubiquitous intracellular messengers mediating transcellular communication in a wide variety of cell types. Over the last decades it has become clear that the activation of many types of cells is accompanied by an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) that is thought to play an important part in the sequence of events occurring during cell activation. The Ca2+ signal can be divided into two categories: receptor- and voltage-operated Ca2+ signal. This review describes and integrates some recent views of receptor-operated Ca2+ signaling and crosstalk in the context of stimulus-secretion coupling.

Abstract
We describe the reconstitution and purification of a membrane-associated phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PIC) from turkey erythrocyte ghosts. This PIC is responsive to a G-protein coupled to P2y purinergic receptors which are expressed in turkey erythrocytes. Reconstitution is achieved by adding partially purified PIC to [3H]inositol-prelabelled turkey erythrocyte membranes depleted of their endogenous PIC (acceptor membranes). PIC activity is associated with a 52 kDa polypeptide on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Addition of a 307-fold purified enzyme to the acceptor membranes has no effect on basal PIC activity, but markedly increases the response to GTP gamma S and P2y-purinergic receptor activation.

Abstract
Hydrolysis of exogenously added, [3H]inositol-labeled, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) by rat parotid membranes was increased, dose-dependently, by the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbamylcholine (carbachol) in the presence of guanosine 5'-O-thiotriphosphate (GTP gamma S). The stimulation was inhibited by atropine and guanosine 5'-O-thiodiphosphate (GDP beta S). GTP gamma S alone stimulated PIP2 hydrolysis, with half-maximal activation at 0.1 microM. This was inhibited by GDP beta S but not by atropine. Agonist stimulation of PIP2 hydrolysis was dependent on the presence of lipids (phosphatidylserine:phosphatidylethanolamine:PIP2 = 1:1:1). When PIP2 was added as micelles with detergent (sodium deoxycholate) only, basal hydrolysis was elevated, thus decreasing the relative stimulation by GTP gamma S and carbachol. The water-soluble hydrolysis products formed under either condition were 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate, 1,4-inositol bisphosphate, and cyclic inositol trisphosphate. Hydrolysis of exogenous phosphatidylinositol (PI) was also stimulated by carbachol in the presence of GTP gamma S but the extent of PI hydrolysis was 44-fold lower than PIP2 hydrolysis. When [Ca2+] in the medium was increased from 100 nM to 1 microM, basal hydrolysis of both PI and PIP2 increased (9.3- and 19.2-fold, respectively). However, levels of basal and stimulated PIP2 hydrolysis were higher (37.9- and 29.6-fold, respectively) than those of PI hydrolysis. Antibodies (both polyclonal and monoclonal) raised against phospholipase C (PLC beta 1) from bovine brain did not react with any component in either rat parotid membranes or cytosol, although a reactivity was detected in rat brain membranes. A monoclonal antibody against bovine brain PLC gamma 1 detected a approximately 150-kDa protein only in the parotid cytosol, while antisera against bovine brain PLC delta 1 enzyme showed no reactivity with parotid membranes or cytosol. Together, these observations suggest that while there appears to be a protein similar to bovine brain PLC gamma 1 in parotid gland cytosol, the PLC which mediates PIP2 hydrolysis in rat parotid membranes and can be regulated by the muscarinic receptor via a G-protein is distinct from the well-characterized PLC enzymes gamma 1, delta 1, and beta 1.

Abstract
Doxorubicin, when incubated for 30 minutes with [32P]-labelled human erythrocyte membrane vesicles, produced an elevation of [32P]inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate levels. The maximum rise was obtained with 10(-8) mol/l doxorubicin [132 (S.E. 13%) of control, n = 6, P = 0.001]. However, when the inositol lipids were examined, there was no evidence that doxorubicin stimulated the breakdown of [32P]phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate under resting conditions, suggesting that the elevated levels of [32P]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate were not the result of the stimulation of phospholipase C. Instead, it was found that the dephosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate by a 5'-phosphomonoesterase was partially inhibited by 10(-8) mol/l doxorubicin so that the rise in [32P]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate resulted from the inhibition of the breakdown of constitutively released [32P] inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Similar data was also obtained with another aminoglycoside antibiotic, neomycin. The release of [32P] inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and [32P] inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and the breakdown of the inositol lipids in response to calcium (2.5 x 10(-4) and 10(-3) mol/l) stimulation was enhanced by doxorubicin (10(-6) to 10(-12) mol/l). These effects on resting and stimulated inositol lipid metabolism are discussed with reference to the paradoxical effects of doxorubicin to both stimulate and inhibit proliferation, according to concentration.

Abstract
Opiate binding sites on cultured neurons derived from 6-day-old (E6) chick embryo cerebral hemispheres (CH), shown to be cholinergic by choline acetyltransferase immunostaining, were labeled with [3H]etorphine (mu and delta opiate receptors expression) and [3H]morphine (mostly mu). When examined by light microscope autoradiography, opiate receptors were found to be expressed by most neurons, and were distributed predominantly on neuronal perikarya. Muscarinic and opiate receptors in E6CH cultured neurons were found to be functionally coupled when the effects of opiate receptor occupancy on the inositol phosphate-linked muscarinic receptors was studied. Carbachol stimulated the release of [3H]inositol phosphates (InsP) from cultures preincubated with [3H]inositol and LiCl, in a dose-dependent manner, and the functional expression of muscarinic receptors peaked in number at day 7 in culture, declining thereafter. Short-term (less than 1 h) treatment of E6 neuronal cultures with 1 microM opioid peptides such as morphiceptin or D-Ala2-D-Leu5-enkephalin (DADLE) did not inhibit the release of inositol phosphates in response to 1 mM carbachol whereas forskolin, which also activates adenylate cyclase and raises cAMP levels, inhibited InsP release by about 25%. In contrast, long-term (48 h) opioid treatment with either morphiceptin or DADLE (1-10 microM) inhibited the carbachol-stimulated inositol phosphate release by greater than or equal to 50%. Prolonged treatment with morphiceptin also inhibited the bradykinin-mediated release of InsP from E6CH cells. In both cases, the inhibition was partially blocked by the continuous presence of naloxone, suggesting that the inhibition was mediated through opiate receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Numerous hormones, neurotransmitters and growth factors regulate intracellular events by acting at cell surface receptors which are coupled to the generation of inositol phospholipid-derived intracellular messengers. Receptors trigger the hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids by activating phosphoinositidase C (PIC) enzymes. At least four families of genes encode structurally distinct PIC enzymes and it is likely that distinct PIC isoenzymes participate in different pathways of signal transduction. Two different modes of receptor regulation have been identified and these involve distinct PIC isoenzymes. In the first of these, PIC-gamma is a substrate for growth factor receptor protein-tyrosine kinases. The second of these pathways involves PIC-beta plus other isoenzymes whose activities are regulated by G proteins in response to agonist binding to G protein-linked receptors. At least two types of G proteins regulate PIC activity and each may control the activity of different PIC isoenzymes.

Abstract
Crude nerve-ending preparations from rat brain were labeled with either [(32)P]phosphate or myo[2-(3)H]inositol in order to observe effects of guanosine 5?-[?-thio]triphosphate (GTP?S) and other nucleotides on phosphoinositides, phosphatidate and inositol phosphates. This system exhibited typical responses to muscarinic agonists, including acetylcholine-a decrease in net labeling of [(32)P]polyphosphoinositides, an increase in labeling of [(32)P]phosphatidate, and a stimulation of [(3)H]inositol phosphate formation. GTP?S and other nucleotides may not readily penetrate intact synaptosomal membranes to cause activation of phospholipase C via an interaction with G proteins, and, as might be expected, there was no indication that G-protein interaction occurred in these preparations. However, other effects were observed. GTP?S decreased net [(32)P] incorporation in phosphatidylinositol (PI) and polyphosphoinositides in a dose-dependent manner. GTP?S also caused an initial marked stimulation of [(32)P] labeling of phosphatidate, suggesting a possible inhibition in the conversion of phosphatidic acid to PI. Other nucleotides [GTP, ATP, Gpp(NH)p, GMP] produced qualitatively similar effects on phosphoinositides. Thus GTP?S and other nucleotides, at physiologically relevant concentrations, may influence phosphoinositide turnover via extracellular or other mechanisms, in addition to the proposed interaction of GTP with G-proteins within membranes.

Abstract
The turkey erythrocyte has substantial value as a model for the study of a receptor that exhibits pharmacological properties very similar to those delineated in mammalian tissues for a P2Y-purinergic receptor. The G protein-dependent coupling of this receptor to phospholipase C can be studied in detail, and the availability of an abundant source of homogeneous cells from which highly purified plasma membranes can be prepared, has led to the development of a radiolabeled, reversibly binding radioligand for a P2Y-purinergic receptor and a photoaffinity covalent radiolabel for this receptor. This source of plasma membranes highly enriched in P2Y-purinergic receptors should also serve as a rich starting material for the eventual purification and structural characterization of this important signaling protein.

Abstract
The generation of second messengers during phagocytosis of yeast by Acanthamoeba castellanii was examined. The kinetics of binding and internalization of yeast by Acanthamoeba were measured and this was compared with the generation of known second messengers. We observed stimulated degradation of PI-4, 5-P2 to 1,4,5 IP3 with kinetics similar to that observed for the binding of yeast to amoeba. Similar production of IP3 could be induced upon treatment with a soluble mannosylated glycoprotein. We propose that the Acanthamoeba mannose receptor stimulates the degradation of PI-4, 5-P2 to 1,4,5 IP3 as an initial event in phagocytosis.

Abstract
Cloned muscarinic acetylcholine m1 and m2 receptors were expressed in stably transfected mouse Y1 adrenal cells and in a variant Y1 line, Kin-8, which is deficient in cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity (PKA-). m1 and m2 receptors were rapidly internalized following exposure of transfected PKA+ or PKA- cells to the muscarinic agonist carbachol. Thus, agonist-dependent internalization of m1 and m2 did not require PKA activity. A differential effect of PKA on regulation by agonist of the m2 receptor, but not the m1 receptor, was unmasked in PKA- cells. The m2 receptor was more sensitive to agonist-dependent internalization, and its rate of internalization was faster in PKA- cells than it was in PKA+ cells. Treatment of PKA+ cells with 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP or forskolin did not result in internalization of either m1 or m2 receptors and did not alter the extent of agonist-dependent internalization of m2. These data indicate that the basal activity of PKA may modulate the agonist-dependent internalization of the m2 receptor, but not the m1 receptor. The internalization of the m1 and m2 receptors in both PKA+ and PKA- cells was accompanied by desensitization of functional responses. Exposure of PKA+ cells to 10(-7) M phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C, resulted in a 30 +/- 9% decrease in the number of m1 receptors on the cell surface. However, treatment of PKA- cells expressing the m1 receptor did not result in internalization, suggesting that PKA was required for some aspect of PMA-dependent internalization.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of the hydrolysis-resistant GTP analogs, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) and guanylyl imidodiphosphate (GMPPNP), on norepinephrine (NE) secretion from digitonin-permeabilized rat pheochromocytoma cells, PC12, was examined. Although secretion in the presence of saturating Ca2+ (10 microM) was not affected by GTP gamma S or GMPPNP, secretion in the absence of Ca2+ was stimulated by these GTP analogs. Secretion induced by saturating concentrations of GTP gamma S or GMPPNP was approximately 80% of that induced by 10 microM Ca2+. Half-maximum stimulation was induced by 30 microM GTP gamma S or GMPPNP. Both Ca2(+)-stimulated and GTP gamma S-stimulated secretion were ATP dependent and inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide. The GTP gamma S-stimulated secretion of NE from permeabilized PC12 cells does not appear to result from either the release of Ca2+ or the activation of protein kinase C. Activation of protein kinase C by pretreatment of intact cells with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate caused a 50% increase in both Ca2(+)-stimulated and GTP gamma S-stimulated secretion. Cholera and pertussis toxins did not affect Ca2(+)-stimulated or GTP gamma S-stimulated NE secretion. Guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (GDP beta S) and GTP inhibited GTP gamma S-stimulated secretion but not Ca2(+)-stimulated secretion. The inability of GDP beta S to inhibit Ca2(+)-stimulated secretion indicates that the process affected by GTP gamma S is not an essential step in the Ca2(+)-stimulated pathway.

Abstract
We have previously determined that human neutrophils and monocytes, as well as neutrophil/monocyte progenitor cells, express a subtype of P2-purinergic receptors (for ATP) which activate the inositol phospholipid signalling system. In the present study, membranes prepared from HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells were used to examine the mechanism by which these ATP receptors activate phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) under defined in vitro conditions. Micromolar concentrations of the receptor agonists ATP, UTP, and ATP gamma S stimulated the GTP-dependent formation of inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) in washed membranes prepared from undifferentiated HL-60 cells prelabeled with [3H]inositol. The stimulatory effects of these nucleotides on PI-PLC appeared to be mediated through a GTP binding protein since minimal inositol polyphosphate accumulation was observed in the absence of guanine nucleotides. The increased inositol polyphosphate formation triggered by these nucleotide receptor agonists did not result from inhibition of GTP breakdown. Neither was it a consequence of increased [3H]polyphosphatidylinositol levels resulting from enhanced activity of membrane-associated PI- or PIP-kinases. Instead, the stimulated phospholipase activity was apparently receptor-mediated. The rank order of potency observed in these in vitro membrane assays (ATP = UTP greater than ATP gamma S much greater than TTP greater than CTP much greater than beta, gamma-CH-ATP) was similar to that observed with intact HL-60 cells. This order of potency appears to distinguish the P2-purinergic receptors expressed by human phagocytic leukocytes from the P2 gamma-purinergic receptors which activate PI-PLC in turkey erythrocyte membranes.

Abstract
The receptors involved in the regulation of phospholipase C by hormones, neurotransmitters and other ligands have seven transmembrane-spanning hydrophobic regions (seven-helix motif) and no known enzymatic activity. Furthermore these receptors can be isolated as complexes with guanine nucleotide binding (G) proteins. Guanine nucleotides affect the binding of hormones that stimulate phospholipase C and it has been possible to see activation of GTPase activity in membranes upon addition of these ligands. Further indirect evidence for a Gp (p stands for phospholipase C activation) protein is the finding that in membranes agonist activation of phospholipase C requires the presence of GTP gamma S a non-hydrolyzable analog of GTP. Furthermore, fluoride is able to activate phospholipase C but its inhibition of phosphatidylinositol-4' kinase (PI-4' kinase) can interfere with efforts to demonstrate this in intact cells. There are four major isozymes of phospholipase C that have been cloned and sequenced. Recently it was found that phospholipase C-gamma as well as PI-3'-kinase are substrates for phosphorylation on tyrosine residues by the EGF and PDGF receptors. The PI-3' kinase is able to convert phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) but the function of this lipid is unknown since it is not a substrate for any known phospholipase C. While much has been learned about the structure and regulation of the phosphoinositide specific kinases and phosphodiesterase enzymes this is a relatively new field in which we can expect many advances during the next few years.

Abstract
The primary structure of G proteins as deduced from purified proteins and cloned subunits is presented. When known, their functions are discussed, as are recent data on direct regulation of ionic channels by G proteins. Experiments on expression of alpha subunits, either in bacteria or by in vitro translation of mRNA synthesized from cDNA are presented as tools for definitive assignment of function to a given G protein. The dynamics of G protein-mediated signal transduction are discussed. Key points include the existence of two superimposed regulatory cycles in which upon activation by GTP, G proteins dissociate into alpha and beta gamma and their dissociated alpha subunits hydrolyze GTP. The action of receptors to catalyze rather than regulate by allostery the activation of G proteins by GTP is emphasized, as is the role of subunit dissociation, without which receptors could not act as catalysts. To facilitate the reading of this review, we have presented the various subtopics of this rapidly expanding field in sections 1-1X, each of which is organized as a self-contained sub-chapter that can be read independently of the others.

Abstract
NaF and guanosine 5'-O-thiotriphosphate [GTP(S)] stimulated the accumulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate ([3H]InsP) in rat brain cortical membranes, with half-maximal stimulation at 2 mM and 1 microM, respectively. Calcium also increased basal [3H]InsP formation over a range of concentrations from 10(-7) to 10(-4) M. The stimulatory effect of GTP(S) (30 microM) on [3H]InsP production was insensitive to Ca2+, whereas NaF-evoked [3H]InsP formation was dependent on Ca2+ concentrations. Guanosine 5'-O-thiodiphosphate significantly attenuated GTP(S)- but not NaF-stimulated [3H]InsP production. Coincubation of GTP(S) (30 microM) and submaximal concentrations of NaF (1 or 3 mM) stimulated [3H]InsP formation to a degree that was nearly additive with that produced by either drug alone. However, the resultant accumulation of [3H]InsP in the presence of maximally effective concentrations of GTP(S) and NaF was not different from that produced by NaF alone. Incubation of cortical membranes with GTP(S) and NaF for 1 min stimulated the accumulation of [3H]inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) but not [3H]InsP. [3H]InsP2 production elicited by GTP(S) was markedly enhanced by the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbachol. In contrast, NaF-stimulated [3H]InsP2 formation was not potentiated by carbachol. Our findings of different characteristics of GTP(S) and fluoride activation of polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis suggest that separate regulatory mechanisms are involved in these two modes of stimulation in brain membranes. Activation of PPI hydrolysis by fluoride may be mediated by a direct stimulation of PPI phosphodiesterase or by activating a putative guanine nucleotide regulatory protein at a location distinct from the GTP-binding site.

Abstract
Physiologic responses mediated by calcium-mobilizing receptors are initiated by the phospholipase C-catalyzed generation from phosphatidyl inositol (4,5)-bisphosphate of two intracellular second messengers: inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate, which induces the release of calcium from intracellular stores, and diacylglycerol, which stimulates protein kinase C activity. Recent studies illustrating guanine nucleotide dependence for hormonal stimulation of membrane phospholipase C suggest involvement of a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (G protein) in phosphoinositide/Ca2+ signaling. Kinetic analysis indicates that the receptor-stimulated phospholipase C catalytic cycle expresses properties similar to those described in detail for receptor and G protein-regulated adenylate cyclase. However, the identity of the phospholipase C-associated G protein remains to be established, and available data suggest that different G proteins (at least two) may be involved in a tissue- and/or receptor-specific manner. The identity of the phospholipase C involved in the action of calcium-mobilizing hormones also has not been established. Multiple forms of membrane-associated and cytosolic phospholipase C enzymes have been described during the last few years, which increases the apparent complexity of the system. The identification and purification of the G protein(s) and the phospholipase C enzyme(s) of this important signaling system followed by unambiguous reconstitution of their physiologic activities represent major challenges in this field for the coming years.

Abstract
As previously described, WRK1 plasma membrane possesses a vasopressin-sensitive phospholipase C [G. Guillon et al., 1986, FEBS Lett. 196, 155-159]. In the present study, we examined the sensitivity of this enzyme to guanylnucleotides. GTP gamma S induces a time- and dose-dependent stimulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,4)P2 accumulation. No accumulation of InsP1, Ins(1,3,4)P3 or Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 occurred under similar conditions. Gpp(NH)p produced the same effect but was less potent. GTP and a nonhydrolyzable analogue of ATP, App(NH)p, were without effect. Calcium also stimulated the phospholipase C activity in a time- and dose-dependent manner. In the absence of calcium, the activity of GTP gamma S was considerably reduced. Physiological calcium concentrations (between 10(-8) and 10(-7) M), allowed maximal GTP gamma S stimulation of phospholipase C activity. In this system, the presence of vasopressin alone did not generate inositol phosphate accumulation. However, this hormone: (i) reduced the lag-time observed during GTP gamma S stimulation, (ii) increased the sensitivity of phospholipase C to GTP and to GTP gamma S, and (iii) did not modify the stimulation of phospholipase C induced by maximal doses of GTP gamma S. Unlike sodium fluoride, GTP gamma S elicited an irreversible activation of phospholipase C. Calcium, GTP gamma S and sodium fluoride stimulated the phospholipase C activity via mechanisms sharing a common step, since their maximal effects were not additive. Cholera toxin treatment, known to produce complete ADP-ribosylation of 'alpha s' subunits, partially reduced the basal and the maximal GTP gamma S-mediated stimulation of phospholipase C activity as well as that caused by vasopressin. This inhibition was not mimicked by treatment with either forskolin or pertussis toxin.
