Abstract
ATP is released into extracellular space as an autocrine/paracrine molecule by mechanical stress and pharmacological-receptor activation. Released ATP is partly metabolized by ectoenzymes to adenosine. In the present study, we found that adenosine causes ATP release in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. This release was completely inhibited by CPT (an A1 receptor antagonist), U-73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor), 2-APB (an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) receptor blocker), thapsigargin (a Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor), and BAPTA/AM (an intracellular Ca2+ chelator), but not by DMPX (an A2 receptor antagonist). However, forskolin, epinephrine, and isoproterenol, inducers of cAMP accumulation, failed to release ATP. Adenosine increased intracellular Ca2+ concentrations that were strongly blocked by CPT, U-73122, 2-APB, and thapsigargin. Moreover, adenosine enhanced accumulations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that were significantly reduced by U-73122 and CPT. These data suggest that adenosine induces the release of ATP by activating an Ins(1,4,5)P3 sensitive-Ca2+ pathway through the stimulation of A1 receptors.

Abstract
Transepithelial salt and fluid secretion mediated by cAMP in initial inner medullary collecting ducts (IMCDi) may be important for making final adjustments to urine composition. We examined in primary cultures of human IMCDi cells the effects of adrenergic receptor (AR) agonists and antagonists on intracellular cAMP levels, short-circuit current (I(SC)), and fluid secretion. Epinephrine (1 microM), norepinephrine (1 microM), and isoproterenol (10 nM) individually increased intracellular cAMP levels 57-, 2-, and 25-fold, respectively, and stimulated I(SC) 3.3-, 2.9-, and 3.4-fold, respectively. beta-AR activation increased net fluid secretion by cultured human IMCDi cell monolayers from 0.09 +/- 0.04 to 0.26 +/- 0.05 microl x h(-1) x cm(-2) and freshly isolated rat IMCDi from 0.02 +/- 0.01 to 0.09 +/- 0.02 nl x h(-1) x mm(-1). In monolayers, these effects were eliminated by blocking beta2-AR, but not beta1-AR. Activation of alpha2-AR with guanabenz inhibited isoproterenol-induced I(SC) by 37% in human IMCDi monolayers and fluid secretion by 91% in rat IMCDi. Immunohistochemistry of human medullary tissue sections revealed greater expression of beta2-AR than beta1-AR; beta2-AR was localized to the basolateral membranes of human IMCDi. Immunoblots identified alpha2A-AR and alpha2B-AR in cultured human IMCDi cell monolayers. We conclude that 1) catecholamines stimulate cAMP-dependent anion and fluid secretion by IMCDi cells primarily through beta2-AR activation and 2) alpha2-AR activation attenuates cAMP-dependent anion secretion.

Abstract
Prostaglandins released from blood vessels modulate vascular tone, and inhibition of their production during exogenous infusions of catecholamines causes increased venoconstriction. To determine the influence of prostaglandin production on venoconstriction during physiological stimuli known to cause sympathetic activation, and to assess its importance in chronic heart failure (CHF), we studied 11 normal subjects (62 +/- 4 yr) and 14 patients with CHF (64 +/- 2 yr, left ventricular ejection fraction 23 +/- 1%, New York Heart Association classes II and III) (means +/- SE). Dorsal hand vein distension was measured during mental arithmetic (MA), cold pressor test (CPT), and lower body negative pressure (LBNP; -10 and -40 mmHg), with saline infusion in one hand and local indomethacin (cyclooxygenase inhibitor) infusion (3 microg/min) in the other. Acetylcholine (0.01-1 nmol/min) dilated veins preconstricted with PGF(2alpha) in normals but, consistent with endothelial dysfunction, barely did so in CHF patients (P = 0.001). Nonendothelial venodilation to sodium nitroprusside (0.3-10 nmol/min) was not different between normals and CHF patients. Resting venous norepinephrine levels were higher in CHF patients (2,812 +/- 420 pmol/l) than normals (1,418 +/- 145 pmol/l, P = 0.007). In normals, indomethacin caused increased venoconstriction to MA (from 4.9 +/- 1.5 to 19.2 +/- 4.5%, P = 0.022) and CPT (from 2.9 +/- 3.8 to 17.6 +/- 4.2%, P = 0.007). In CHF, indomethacin caused increased venoconstriction to MA (from 6.6 +/- 3.9% to 19.0 +/- 4.5%, P = 0.014), CPT (from 9.6 +/- 2.1% to 20.1 +/- 3.7%, P = 0.001), and -40 mmHg LBNP (from 10.7 +/- 3.0% to 23.2 +/- 3.8%, P = 0.041). Control responses for all tests were not different between normals and CHF patients. The effects of indomethacin on venoconstriction to MA and CPT were not different between normals and CHF patients, but venoconstriction to -40 mmHg LBNP was accentuated in CHF patients (P = 0.036). Inhibition of prostaglandins by indomethacin significantly enhances hand vein constriction to physiological stimuli in both normals and CHF patients, although a differential effect exists for LBNP.

Abstract
Astrocytic responses to activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors group I (mGluRs I) and alpha(1)-adrenoreceptors in cultured cells have been assessed using spectral analyzes and calcium imaging. Concentration-dependent changes were observed after stimulation with the mGluR I agonist (S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG). These responses changed from a regular low frequency signal with sharp peaks at 1 microm to a pronounced stage of irregularity at 10 microm. After stimulation with 100 microm the signal was again homogenous in shape and regularity but occurred at a higher frequency. In contrast, the spectral properties after stimulation with the alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor agonist phenylephrine, exhibited considerable variation for all investigated concentrations. DHPG-induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were also associated with astroglial glutamate release, whereas no release was observed after noradrenergic stimulation. Both DHPG-mediated calcium signaling and glutamate release were inhibited by preincubation with 10 or 100 microm phenylephrine. Collectively, the present investigation provides new information about the spatial-temporal characteristics of astroglial intracellular calcium responses and demonstrates distinct differences between noradrenergic and glutamatergic receptors regarding intracellular calcium signaling and coupling to glutamate release. The noradrenergic modulation of DHPG-induced responses indicates that intracellular astroglial processes can be regulated in a bi-directional feedback loop between closely connected astrocytes and neurons in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Tubular reabsorption of filtered sodium is quantitatively the main contribution of kidneys to salt and water homeostasis. The transcellular reabsorption of sodium proceeds by a two-step mechanism: Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-energized basolateral active extrusion of sodium permits passive apical entry through various sodium transport systems. In the past 15 years, most of the renal sodium transport systems (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, channels, cotransporters, and exchangers) have been characterized at a molecular level. Coupled to the methods developed during the 1965-1985 decades to circumvent kidney heterogeneity and analyze sodium transport at the level of single nephron segments, cloning of the transporters allowed us to move our understanding of hormone regulation of sodium transport from a cellular to a molecular level. The main purpose of this review is to analyze how molecular events at the transporter level account for the physiological changes in tubular handling of sodium promoted by hormones. In recent years, it also became obvious that intracellular signaling pathways interacted with each other, leading to synergisms or antagonisms. A second aim of this review is therefore to analyze the integrated network of signaling pathways underlying hormone action. Given the central role of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in sodium reabsorption, the first part of this review focuses on its structural and functional properties, with a special mention of the specificity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase expressed in renal tubule. In a second part, the general mechanisms of hormone signaling are briefly introduced before a more detailed discussion of the nephron segment-specific expression of hormone receptors and signaling pathways. The three following parts integrate the molecular and physiological aspects of the hormonal regulation of sodium transport processes in three nephron segments: the proximal tubule, the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, and the collecting duct.

Abstract
We have characterized the muscarinic ACh receptors (mAChRs) expressed in Madin- Darby canine kidney (MDCK) strain II epithelial cells. Binding studies with the membrane-impermeable antagonist N-[(3)H]methylscopolamine demonstrated that mAChRs are approximately 2.5 times more abundant on the basolateral than on the apical surface. Apical, but not basolateral, mAChRs inhibited forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in response to the agonist carbachol. Neither apical nor basolateral mAChRs exhibited detectable carbachol-stimulated phospholipase C activity. Carbachol application to the apical or the basolateral membrane resulted in a threefold increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, which was completely inhibited by pertussis toxin on the apical side and partially inhibited on the basolateral side. RT-PCR analysis showed that MDCK cells express the M(4) and M(5) receptor mRNAs. These data suggest that M(4) receptors reside on the apical and basolateral membranes of polarized MDCK strain II cells and that the M(5) receptor may reside in the basolateral membrane of a subset of cells.

Abstract
In Madin-Darby canine kidney D1 cells extracellular nucleotides activate P2Y receptors that couple to several signal transduction pathways, including stimulation of multiple phospholipases and adenylyl cyclase. For one class of P2Y receptors, P2Y2 receptors, this stimulation of adenylyl cyclase and increase in cAMP occurs via the conversion of phospholipase A2 (PLA2)-generated arachidonic acid (AA) to prostaglandins (e.g. PGE2). These prostaglandins then stimulate adenylyl cyclase activity, presumably via activation of prostanoid receptors. In the current study we show that agents that increase cellular cAMP levels (including PGE2, forskolin, and the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol) can inhibit P2Y receptor-promoted AA release. The protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor H89 blocks this effect, suggesting that this feedback inhibition occurs via activation of PKA. Studies with PGE2 indicate that inhibition of AA release is attributable to inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase activity and in turn of P2Y receptor stimulated PLA2 activity. Although cAMP/PKA-mediated inhibition occurs for P2Y receptor-promoted AA release, we did not find such inhibition for epinephrine (alpha1-adrenergic) or bradykinin-mediated AA release. Taken together, these results indicate that negative feedback regulation via cAMP/PKA-mediated inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase occurs for some, but not all, classes of receptors that promote PLA2 activation and AA release. We speculate that receptor-selective feedback inhibition occurs because PLA2 activation by different receptors in Madin-Darby canine kidney D1 cells involves the utilization of different signaling components that are differentially sensitive to increases in cAMP or, alternatively, because of compartmentation of signaling components.

Abstract
Vasodilator prostaglandins are released in vitro from endothelium during adrenergic stimulation. We hypothesized that indomethacin would block this production in vivo and increase venoconstriction to alpha1- and alpha2-stimulation but not to the nonadrenergic agonist PGF2alpha. Hand vein distension was measured in 24 normal subjects (23.0 +/- 0.5 yr) during local infusions of phenylephrine (8-12,000 ng/min), clonidine (3-7,000 ng/min), or PGF2alpha (1-2,048 ng/min) plus indomethacin (3 microg/min) versus saline on two separate days. Dose-dependent venoconstriction to phenylephrine occurred in all subjects, with a parallel shift to the left with indomethacin (P = 0. 003) and a decrease in the phenylephrine 50% effective dose (1,009 vs. 241 ng/min, geometric means, P = 0.012). Venoconstriction to clonidine was more variable, with most subjects eliciting a biphasic response (initial venoconstriction followed by attenuation). With indomethacin, the dose-response curve was displaced up and to the left (P = 0.005), and peak venoconstriction was increased (51.1 +/- 6.8 vs. 27.2 +/- 5.3% of control, P = 0.018) without a biphasic response. In all subjects, PGF2alpha elicited dose-dependent venoconstriction that was not altered by indomethacin. Thus venous alpha1- and alpha2-stimulation results in release of vasodilator prostaglandins that antagonize the venoconstrictor response. This modulates the sympathetic response of venous smooth muscle and may be important in diseases with endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
We have demonstrated previously that protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) plays a key role in regulating phospholipase D (PLD) activation by nucleotides and the phorbol ester phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK-D1) cells. In the current work, we investigated PLD activation in MDCK-D1 cells triggered by the adrenergic receptor agonist epinephrine and its mechanism of activation. Epinephrine, acting through the alpha1-adrenergic receptor subtype, promoted transient translocation of PKCalpha and more prolonged translocation of PKCepsilon to the membrane fraction, indicating activation of these two isoforms. In addition, epinephrine promoted activation of PLD, as shown by a sustained accumulation of phosphatidylethanol. All of these events were blocked by pretreatment of cells with the alpha1-adrenergic antagonist prazosin. D609, an inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis, blocked translocation of PKCalpha and PKCepsilon but did not inhibit PLD activation. Unlike results with PMA, or with the P2 purinergic receptor agonist ATP, epinephrine-stimulated PLD activity was not inhibited in MDCK-D1 cells in which PKCalpha expression is attenuated by an antisense cDNA construct or in cells in which PKC activity was inhibited by 1 microM GF 109203X. However, PLD activation by epinephrine was abolished by concomitant incubation of cells with the calcium chelator EGTA. These data, together with previous results, are consistent with the hypothesis that in MDCK-D1 cells, epinephrine acting on alpha1-adrenergic receptors, promotes a rapid increase in cytosolic Ca2+ that promotes activation of PLD through an as-yet poorly defined mechanism. The data demonstrate that different types of G protein-linked receptors that activate PLD can mediate this activation in either a PKC activation-dependent or -independent manner within a single cell type.

Abstract
Part of the beneficial effects of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are due to augmenting the actions of bradykinin (BK). We studied this effect of enalaprilat on the binding of [3H]BK to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably transfected to express the human BK B2 receptor alone (CHO-3B) or in combination with ACE (CHO-15AB). In CHO-15AB cells, enalaprilat (1 mumol/L) increased the total number of low-affinity [3H]BK binding sites on the cells at 37 degrees C, but not at 4 degrees C, from 18.4 +/- 4.3 to 40.3 +/- 11.9 fmol/10(6) cells (P < .05; Kd, 2.3 +/- 0.8 and 5.9 +/- 1.3 nmol/L; n = 4). Enalaprilat preserved a portion of the receptors in high-affinity conformation (Kd, 0.17 +/- 0.08 nmol/L; 8.1 +/- 0.9 fmol/10(6) cells). Enalaprilat decreased the IC50 of [Hyp3-Tyr(Me)8]BK, the BK analogue more resistant to ACE, from 3.2 +/- 0.8 to 0.41 +/- 0.16 nmol/L (P < .05, n = 3). The biphasic displacement curve of the binding of [3H]BK also suggested the presence of high-affinity BK binding sites. Enalaprilat (5 nmol to 1 mumol/L) potentiated the release of [3H]arachidonic acid and the liberation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) induced by BK and [Hyp3-Tyr(Me)8]BK. Moreover, enalaprilat (1 mumol/L) completely and immediately restored the response of the B2 receptor, desensitized by the agonist (1 mumol/L [Hyp3-Tyr(Me)8]BK); this effect was blocked by the antagonist, HOE 140. Finally, enalaprilat, but not the prodrug enalapril, decreased internalization of the receptor from 70 +/- 9% to 45 +/- 9% (P < .05, n = 7). In CHO-3B cells, enalaprilat was ineffective. ACE inhibitors in the presence of both the B2 receptor and ACE enhance BK binding, protect high-affinity receptors, block receptor desensitization, and decrease internalization, thereby potentiating BK beyond blocking its hydrolysis.

Abstract
The release of [3H]inositol phosphates from myo-[3H]inositol-prelabeled LA-N-2 cells was measured in the presence of beta-adrenoceptor, metabotropic glutamate and bombesin agonists. Norepinephrine and isoproterenol increased the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates in a dose-dependent manner, with an EC50 of 100 microM for norepinephrine and an EC50 of 5 microM for isoproterenol. These stimulations were abolished by propranolol, a beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, with an IC50 in the range of 50-55 microM for both norepinephrine and isoproterenol. The stimulation of [3H]inositol phosphate appearance occurred with varying concentrations of trans-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (t-ACPD), a metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist. This release of [3H] inositol phosphates was blunted by its antagonist, 2-amino-3-phosphonopropionic acid (AP-3). Bombesin and neuromedin-B, a bombesin-like peptide, also increased the appearance of [3H]inositol phosphates. This was blunted by the antagonist [Tyr4, D-Phe12] bombesin. The appearance of [3H]inositol phosphates stimulated by t-ACPD was coupled through a cholera toxin-sensitive G-protein and the bombesin-stimulated appearance of [3H]inositol phosphates was coupled through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein. The norepinephrine-stimulated appearance of [3H]inositol phosphates was toxin insensitive. The stimulation of the [3H]inositol phosphate appearance by these three agonists was protein kinase and Ca2+ independent.

Abstract
Norepinephrine, that has been released from sympathetic nerve endings in response to myocardial ischemia, may have either a beneficial or a harmful effect on the ischemic heart. If the duration of ischemia is short, the release of norepinephrine may be favorable for the production of energy and for protection of the heart against ischemic damage. If the duration of ischemia is prolonged, there is a marked increase in number of both alpha 1 and beta-adrenoceptors located in the sarcolemmal membrane, as well as an excessive increase in release of norepinephrine. These events during the prolonged period of ischemia can produce an imbalance between oxygen supply and demand, which is harmful to the heart. The anti-ischemic effect of alpha 1- and beta-adrenoceptor antagonists is not attributed merely to improvement of oxygen balance, but reduction of phospholipase activity or stabilization of membrane may also be important as an underlying mechanism.

Abstract
Gallbladder cell cultures obtained from rabbits subjected to sham or 72 h of bile duct ligation (72 h BDL, cholecystitis model) were incubated with calcium ionophore (A23187), dibutyryl cAMP (cAMP), and phorbol 12,13-diacetate (phorbol) to determine the intracellular signal transduction mechanisms responsible for increased inflamed gallbladder eicosanoid synthesis. Incubation of sham and 72 h BDL cell cultures with A23187 or phorbol significantly increased, whereas cAMP decreased, release of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, PGE2, thromboxane B2 (measured by enzyme immunoassay) in a dose-related manner. Seventy-two-hour BDL cell cultures contained a specific 2-fold increased level of prostacyclin synthase compared to sham cell cultures which was not altered by preincubation with A23187, phorbol or cAMP. These findings suggest that increased PGI2 release in the sham and inflamed cell cultures following A23187 and phorbol stimulation was mediated in part via the inositol triphosphate pathway and protein kinase C activation and was not associated with altered cyclooxygenase or prostacyclin synthase content.

Abstract
Regulation of phospholipases C (PLC) and arachidonic acid (AA) release by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) was investigated in MDCK-D1 cells. Bradykinin (BDK) was used to stimulate PLC and AA release, while arginine vasopressin (AVP), forskolin (FSK), isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) were used to increase cAMP levels and stimulate PKA. When cells were preincubated for 20 min with 10 microM FSK + 0.5 mM IBMX, and subsequently treated with 1 microM BDK or control medium for 40 min, the basal and BDK-stimulated PLC activity, measured as accumulated labelled inositol phosphate (InsP) after 40 min and inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) after 10 s, were significantly inhibited. In a parallel manner, FSK + IBMX also significantly decreased both basal and BDK-stimulated diacylglycerol (DAG) production. The basal and BDK-enhanced AA release into the media was also significantly inhibited by pretreatment with FSK + IBMX. In parallel experiments, H-89, a specific inhibitor of PKA, was preincubated for 60 min prior to addition of BDK and this resulted in a reversal of FSK+IBMX-induced inhibition of basal and BDK-stimulated PLC activity and AA release. An inhibitor of inositide-hydrolysing PLC, U73122, (1 microM) was also found to blunt BDK-stimulated PLC activity and BDK-enhanced AA release which indicated that stimulation of AA release by the nonapeptide was second to PLC activation. The ionophore, A23187, (10 microM) greatly stimulated AA release and to a much lesser extent, PLC activity. Its effect on AA release however was not blocked by inhibiting protein kinase C (PKC) with staurosporine (SSP) and consequently did not notably involve the PLC-PKC cascade. Activation of PKA with FSK + IBMX was found to significantly inhibit the enhancement of AA release by ionophore. With 12-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) also present there was a synergistic increase in the A23187-stimulated AA release and activation of PKA under such conditions inhibited AA release to a similar extent though the synergistic effect remained. The results strongly suggest a role for PKA in the regulation of PLC activity and AA release in MDCK-D1 cells. Control of AA release by PKA, is mediated both by mechanisms which involve blunting of PLC activity and mechanisms which are downstream from the PLC-PKC cascade.

Abstract
Previously, it has been observed that newborn pig pial artery constriction after fluid percussion brain injury was associated with elevated CSF dynorphin and beta endorphin concentration. Additionally, brain injury reversed dynorphin-induced pial artery vasodilation to vasoconstriction. The present study was designed to characterize the relationship between opioids and activation of phospholipase C (PLC) and protein kinase C (PKC) in brain injury-induced pial vasoconstriction. Anesthetized newborn pigs equipped with a closed cranial window were connected to a percussion device consisting of a saline-filled cylindrical reservoir with a metal pendulum. Brain injury of moderate severity (1.9-2.3 atm) was produced by allowing the pendulum to strike a piston on the cylinder. Brain injury decreased pial arteriolar diameter within 10 min of injury and continued to fall progressively for 3 h (130 +/- 5, 108 +/- 4 and 102 +/- 5 microns for 0, 10 and 180 min postinjury). In contrast, the PLC inhibitor, neomycin (10(-4) M), blunted brain injury-induced pial vasoconstriction (133 +/- 4, 129 +/- 4 and 135 +/- 5 microns for 0, 10 and 180 min postinjury, respectively). Similarly, staurosporine (10(-7) M), a PKC inhibitor, also blunted brain injury-induced vasoconstriction. beta endorphin (10(-8), 10(-6) M)-induced pial artery vasoconstriction was blunted by neomycin (12 +/- 1, 19 +/- 1 vs. 2 +/- 1, 4 +/- 2% constriction before and after neomycin, respectively). Staurosporine similarly blunted beta endorphin pial constriction (10 +/- 1, 15 +/- 1 vs. 1 +/- 1, 1 +/- 1% constriction before and after staurosporine, respectively). The constrictor potential for dynorphin was also inhibited by neomycin and staurosporine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. The effect of extracellular nucleotides on the transepithelial ion transport of Madin Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK) was investigated. Cells were grown up to confluency on permeable supports and the short circuit current (ISC) was measured with an Ussing chamber-like mini-perfusion system. 2. Apical ATP stimulated a biphasic ISC increase consisting of a first rapid and transient peak followed by a broader one. 3. The first peak evoked by ATP was reversibly blocked by basilen blue (BB) in a concentration-dependent fashion, with an EC50 of 7.5 microM. 4. The P2 gamma receptor agonist, 2-methylthioATP (2-MeSATP) caused a single transient ISC increase that was completely blocked by pretreatment with BB. On the contrary, the P2x agonist, alpha, beta-methylene ATP (alpha, beta-meATP) was almost completely ineffective on ISC. UTP essentially induced a monophasic response the time-course of which resembled that of the second peak stimulated by ATP. The agonist potency order was 2-MeSATP > or = ATP >> UTP, alpha, beta-meATP for the first peak and UTP > or = ATP > 2-MeSATP > alpha, beta-meATP for the second peak. 5. Monolayer incubation with the membrane permeable calcium chelator [bis-o-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N',-tetraacetic acid, tetra(acetoximethyl)-ester] (BAPTA/AM) inhibited the ATP-evoked first peak. 6. The non-hydrolyzable ATP analogue, adenosine-5'-O-(3-thio)-trisphosphate (ATP-gamma-S) elicited a biphasic response similar to that of ATP. The P1 receptor agonist, 2-chloroadenosine and CGS-21680, were almost unable to induce an ISC increase.2+ increase. The second induces prostaglandin synthesis probably through a P2U receptor activation.

Abstract
We have reported previously that hydrogen peroxide induces arachidonic acid release from prelabeled vascular smooth muscle cells. Here, we studied the effect of hydrogen peroxide on the phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 in these cells. Hydrogen peroxide induced a rapid, time-dependent increase in the phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2. Hydrogen peroxide also increased arachidonic acid release from prelabeled cells in a time-dependent manner similar to that of phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2. Protein kinase C depletion significantly inhibited the hydrogen peroxide-stimulated cytosolic phospholipase A2 phosphorylation and arachidonic acid release. Hydrogen peroxide caused a time-dependent increase in mitogen activated protein kinase activity. Taken together, these findings suggest that cytosolic phospholipase A2 may, at least in part, contribute to arachidonic acid release induced by hydrogen peroxide and this effect appears to be mediated by protein kinase C and mitogen activated protein kinase.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP increases inositol phosphates, cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), arachidonic acid (AA) release, and iodide efflux in FRTL-5 cells. To examine the sequence of events in P2-purinergic receptor activation by ATP, a phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor (U-73122) and a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor (U-26384), as well as 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'- tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) and downregulation of protein kinase C (PKC) were used. ATP increased inositol trisphosphate (IP3), [Ca2+]i, AA release, and 125I efflux dose dependently. U-73122 inhibited the IP3 and calcium increase but not AA; U-26384 prevented AA release but not the increase in calcium. Both agents inhibited iodide efflux. BAPTA prevented any ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i without affecting AA release or 125I efflux. PKC downregulation had no effect on ATP-stimulated AA release, but reduced 125I efflux. We conclude that ATP-induced iodide efflux involves parallel, not sequential, activation of PLC and PLA2. No increase in [Ca2+]i or PKC activity is required for PLA2 activation. In contrast, an increase in 125I efflux depends on PKC and PLA2 activities, but not an increase in [Ca2+]i.

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
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (1,25(OH)2D3) which activates the phospholipase C (PLC)-protein kinase C (PKC) signalling pathway, induces within 1 min a dose-dependent (10(-11)-10(-7) M) increase in the release of [3H]arachidonic acid ([3H]AA) from prelabeled embryonic chick myoblasts. The response is dependent on extracellular calcium, since it is suppressed by EGTA and nifedipine, a Ca(2+)-channel blocker, and is mimicked by the calcium ionophore A23187. 1,25(OH)2D3-induced release of [3H]AA is not affected by neomycin (0.5 mM), an inhibitor of phosphoinositide hydrolysis. 12-o-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a PKC activator, induces an extracellular Ca(2+)-independent release of [3H]AA and amplifies the release of AA stimulated by 1,25(OH)2D3. 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methyl-piperazine (H7), a PKC inhibitor, markedly suppressed TPA as well as 1,25(OH)2D3-induced [3H]AA release. Down-regulation of cellular PKC abolishes the effect of the phorbol ester, and partially inhibits 1,25(OH)2D3-induced [3H]AA release. Temporally correlated with AA liberation, the hormone increases the formation of lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (lysoPE) and decreases the cellular content of PC and PE. These results indicate that part of AA release by 1,25(OH)2D3 derives from PLA2 activation and that the effects of the hormone are mediated by PKC in a mode independent of phosphoinositide hydrolysis by PLC.

Abstract
1. Short-circuit current (SCC) technique was used to study the adrenoceptors involved in the electrogenic chloride secretion by cultured cauda epididymal epithelium of rats. Stimulation of the epithelium with noradrenaline (primarily beta 1-adrenoceptor selective agonist), salbutamol (beta 2-adrenoceptor selective agonist) and adrenaline (non-selective beta-adrenoceptor agonist) led to a rise in SCC. At a low chart-speed (2 mm min-1), the response profile to these agonists consisted of a peak followed by a sustained response considerably higher than the basal SCC. 2. The EC50s (doses of agonist producing 50% maximum response) of noradrenaline, salbutamol and adrenaline were 300, 115 and 10 nM respectively. Pretreating the tissues with 1 microM atenolol (beta 1-selective antagonist) and 10 microM butoxamine (beta 2-selective antagonist) shifted the dose-response curves of noradrenaline (shifted EC50 = 4000 nM) and salbutamol (shifted EC50 = 1050 nM) to the right. Atenolol (1 microM) and butoxamine (10 microM) shifted the dose-response curve of adrenaline to the right with new EC50s of 30 nM and 115 nM, respectively. 3. The rapidly rising phase of the SCC response to noradrenaline and adrenaline observed at low chart-speed consisted of a brief and transient retraction followed by a rebound increase in SCC. At a high chart-speed (1 mm s-1), the retraction and rebound phenomenon manifested as a fast initial spike which could be blocked by phentolamine (non-specific alpha-adrenoceptor antagonist) in a dose-dependent fashion. Similar initial spikes were observed when the tissues were stimulated with phenylephrine (alpha-selective agonist) but not with isoprenaline (non-selective beta-agonist) or forskolin (activator of adenylate cyclase). The response of the initial spike triggered by noradrenaline was dose-dependent and the EC50 was 2000 nM.4. The present study showed that the electrogenic chloride secretion by rat epididymis could be stimulated by (alphaxi-, beta131- and beta2-adrenoceptor agonists. The al-mediated response had a faster onset and more transient action than the 3-counterpart. It is postulated that epididymal chloride secretion might be regulated by neural (noradrenaline-mediated) and humoral (adrenaline-mediated) controls and that the stimulus-secretion coupling mechanisms might involve both Ca2+(alpha-mediated response) and adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (beta-mediated response) as intracellular second messengers.

Abstract
Although several cytokines have been demonstrated to exert pleiotropic responses, there is little information on cytokine regulation of renal tubular epithelial cell function. In the present studies, we find that both T cell-derived (tumor necrosis factor-beta and interleukins 2 and 3) and monocyte/macrophage derived (tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1 beta) cytokines promote basal, arginine vasopressin- and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in cultured LLC-PK1 cells. No effect of TNF, IL-1 beta, and IL-2 to stimulate protein kinase C activity was observed. TNF-beta, IL-1 beta and IL-2 also modestly stimulated 3H release from 3H-arachidonic acid labeled cells. Mepacrine, a phospholipase A inhibitor, prevented TNF-beta stimulation of 3H release from 3H-arachidonic acid labeled cells and TNF-beta potentiation of adenylate cyclase activity. TNF-beta potentiation of adenylate cyclase activity and stimulation of 3H release from 3H arachidonic acid labeled cells was not prevented by pertussis toxin. These results demonstrate that several cytokines can stimulate adenylate cyclase activity while not affecting protein kinase C activity in cultured renal tubular epithelial cells. The effect of TNF-beta to stimulate adenylate cyclase appears to occur independent of pertussis toxin-sensitive substrate and may involve activation of phospholipase A.

Abstract
The phospholipid-hydrolyzing enzyme phospholipase A2 (PLA2) (EC 3.1.1.4) exists in several forms which can be located in the cytosol or on cellular membranes. We review briefly cellular regulatory mechanisms involving covalent modification by protein kinase C and the action of Ca2+, cytokines, G proteins and other cellular proteins. The major focus is the role of phospholipid structure on PLA2 activity, including (1) the mechanism of PLA2 action on synthetic phospholipid bilayers, (2) perturbation of synthetic and cellular membranes with lipophilic agents and membrane-interactive peptides and (3) the ability of these agents to activate endogenous PLA2 activity, with emphasis on the venom and plant toxins melittin, cardiotoxin and Pyrularia thionein.

Abstract
The release of arachidonic acid from cellular phospholipids and its subsequent conversion to eicosanoids is the common early response of skin keratinocytes to a wide variety of exogenous or endogenous agonists including irritant skin mitogens such as the phorbol ester, 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or the inflammatory peptide bradykinin. In mouse keratinocytes labeled with [14C]arachidonic acid, both PMA and bradykinin induced the release of the fatty acid in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. Three lines of evidence indicate phospholipase A2 activity to be involved in arachidonic acid release: (a) its inhibition by mepacrine, (b) the concomitant generation of lysophosphatidylcholine from [3H]choline-labeled cells and (c) an increase in arachidonic acid release from 14C-labeled phosphatidylcholine in particulate fractions from PMA-treated and bradykinin-treated keratinocytes. Inhibition or down regulation of protein kinase C (PKC) led to a suppression of PMA-induced but not bradykinin-induced arachidonic acid release, indicating a critical involvement of this kinase in phorbol-ester-induced activation of epidermal phospholipase A2 activity. Bradykinin-induced activation of phospholipase A2 was however, shown to be mediated by specific B2 receptors coupled to GTP-binding proteins (G protein). In support of this mechanism it was demonstrated that the bradykinin-induced phospholipase A2 activity was increased in the presence of non-hydrolysable GTP but decreased upon addition of non-hydrolysable GDP analogues. Moreover, cholera toxin stimulated both basal and bradykinin-induced phospholipase A2 activity in a cAMP-independent manner, whereas pertussis toxin was found to be inactive in this respect. The data suggest that epidermal phospholipase A2 activity can be stimulated by bradykinin via a B2 receptor-G-protein-dependent pathway, which is independent of PKC and a PKC-dependent pathway which is activated by phorbol esters such as PMA.

Abstract
Previously, we found that noradrenergic input through alpha 1-receptors modulates pulsatile release of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) in ovariectomized rhesus monkeys in the absence of estrogen. In the present study, the role of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in mediating alpha-adrenergic stimulation of LH-RH release is investigated. In the first experiment the effects of the alpha 1-adrenergic agonist methoxamine (MTX) on LH-RH and PGE2 release were examined. Push-pull perfusion of the stalk-median eminence (S-ME) was performed in conscious, ovariectomized monkeys, and perfusate samples were collected on ice. MTX (10(-5) M) was infused into the S-ME through the push cannula for 10 min at 90-min intervals, and LH-RH and PGE2 in aliquots of the same perfusate samples were measured by radioimmunoassay. Infusion of MTX significantly stimulated LH-RH release (n = 12; P less than 0.01) and PGE2 release (P less than 0.05). In the second experiment, the effect of PGE2 infusion on LH-RH release was tested. PGE2 (10(-7) M) was infused using the same protocol as above, and LH-RH was measured in the perfusates. Infusion of PGE2 through the push cannula significantly stimulated LH-RH release (n = 23; P less than 0.05). These results suggest that the stimulatory effect of MTX on LH-RH release is at least partly mediated by PGE2, since MTX stimulated not only LH-RH but also PGE2 release, and since PGE2 itself stimulated LH-RH release. Therefore, PGE2 may be an important endogenous mediator of alpha 1-adrenergic input stimulating pulsatile LH-RH release.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The second messengers and protein kinases involved in the induction of type I plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) synthesis by various agents were evaluated in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) induced PAI-1 in these cells implicating the protein kinase C (PK-C) pathway. However, bradykinin, which also activates PK-C in bovine aortic endothelial cells, did not induce PAI-1. Moreover, when PK-C was down-regulated by PMA pretreatment, subsequent induction of PAI-1 by transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) was unaltered, and induction by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was decreased by only 50%. LPS increased phospholipid second messengers which can activate PK-C but TGF beta and TNF alpha did not. Agents which increase cAMP, (e.g., forskolin and isobutylmethylxanthine) blocked the induction of PAI-1 synthesis by PMA, LPS, TGF beta and TNF alpha suggesting that induction may occur by lowering cAMP. This possibility seems unlikely since cAMP levels did not change in response to any of these agents. Moreover, somatostatin lowered cAMP but did not induce PAI-1. PAI-1 was not induced by treating the cells with cGMP, Na+/H+ ionophore and calcium ionophore or arachidonic acid.

Abstract
We have shown that ATP increases cytosolic Ca2+ in UMR-106 cells through P2-purinergic receptor stimulation (Calcif Tissue Int 45:251-254). This response was further characterized using cells loaded with indo-1/AM or prelabeled with [3H]inositol. ATP elicited a rapid transient increase in Ca2+ from 148 to 540 nM, followed by a biphasic decline (first rapid and then slower) to basal within 1 minute and then a late slow rise to 200 nM by 4 minutes. ADP also elicited a rapid transient increase, but this was followed by a second smaller transient and a later, slow increase above basal Ca2+. These transient increases in Ca2+ induced by ATP and ADP were dose dependent, detected at 10(-6)M ATP and 10(-7)M ADP, and saturated at 10(-4)M with both nucleotides. The maximum increase in Ca2+ was 20% greater with ATP than ADP. EGTA chelation of extracellular Ca2+ abolished the biphasicity of the ATP-induced Ca2+ transient, the second ADP-induced transient, and all late slower increases in Ca2+. Desmethoxyverapamil pretreatment attenuated the biphasicity of the ATP-induced transient and the second peak elicited by ADP. Elevated extracellular Ca2+ (5 mM) prevented the return to the basal level that normally follows the ATP-induced Ca2+ transient and amplified the sustained increase in Ca2+ but had little effect on the response to ADP. IP3 and IP4 increased rapidly after addition of ATP, with I(1,4,5)P3 increasing before I(1,3,4)P3. These data indicate that P2-purinergic stimulation of UMR-106 cells causes three consecutive responses in cytosolic Ca2+: (1) a transient increase due to IP3-mediated mobilization of intracellular Ca2+; (2) a transient increase due in part to influx, probably associated with a Ca2+ channel; and (3) a later sustained increase that requires extracellular calcium.

Abstract
The ability of angiotensin peptides to stimulate prostaglandin release and raise intracellular calcium levels by activating a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C was assessed in three human astrocytoma cell lines (CRTG3, STTG1, and WITG2). The addition of angiotensin II to CRTG3 cells resulted in a dose-dependent release of prostaglandin E2 and prostacyclin, the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and the mobilization of intracellular calcium. Angiotensin-(1-7), previously considered to be an inactive metabolite of angiotensin II, was as potent as angiotensin II for prostaglandin release but did not activate phospholipase C or mobilize intracellular calcium. In contrast, angiotensin-(2-8) caused only a slight increase in prostaglandin release, even though it was as effective as angiotensin II in augmenting inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production and calcium mobilization. Moreover, neither the release of prostaglandins in response to angiotensin II or angiotensin-(1-7) nor the mobilization of intracellular calcium in response to angiotensin II required extracellular calcium. Angiotensin II and angiotensin-(1-7) caused the release of prostaglandins from all three human astrocytoma cell lines, but changes in the level of intracellular calcium in response to angiotensin II only occurred in CRTG3 cells. Although previous studies have provided evidence for angiotensin receptor subtypes on the basis of selectivity of antagonists or signal transduction mechanisms, these data suggest that human astrocytes contain multiple angiotensin receptor subtypes on the basis of their response to different angiotensin heptapeptides--angiotensin-(1-7) and angiotensin-(2-8).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells form arachidonic acid metabolites following stimulation of several hormones known to modify the ion conductances at the plasma membrane. The present study has been performed to elucidate the influence of arachidonic acid on the electrical properties of subconfluent MDCK cells. As a result, arachidonic acid (1 or 10 mumol/l) leads to a transient hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, followed by a transient depolarization and a second, sustained hyperpolarization. The effects are inhibited by cycloxygenase inhibitor indomethacin (1 mumol/l). The initial transient hyperpolarization is mimicked by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2, 0.1 mumol/l), the sustained hyperpolarization by both PGE2 (0.1 mumol/l) and PGF2 alpha (0.1 mumol/l). The transient hyperpolarization is paralleled by an increase of potassium selectivity and a decrease of cell membrane resistance and is thus the result of increased potassium conductance. The transient depolarization is paralleled by an increase of chloride selectivity, reflecting an increase of chloride conductance. The sustained hyperpolarization is paralleled by an increase of cell membrane resistance, and increase of potassium selectivity and a decrease of chloride selectivity, and is thus the result of decreasing chloride conductance. The observations reveal a role of prostaglandins in the regulation of ion conductances in MDCK cells, which could well participate in the transport regulation by hormones.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that ATP enhances intracellular calcium concentration and activates potassium channels in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK)-cells, thus leading to hyperpolarization of the cell membrane. The present study has been performed to elucidate the intracellular mechanisms involved. To this end, the effects of ATP on the potential difference across the cell membrane (PD), on formation of inositol phosphates, and on intracellular calcium concentration (Cai) have been analyzed in cells without or with pretreatment with pertussis toxin or 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate diester (TPA). In untreated cells, ATP leads to a sustained hyperpolarization and an increase of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4), and Cai. In the absence of extracellular calcium, the effect of ATP on PD and Cai is only transient. In cells pretreated with pertussis toxin, the effect of ATP on inositol trisphosphate is almost abolished, but ATP still leads to an increase of PD and Cai, which is sustained in the presence, and transient in the absence, of extracellular calcium. In cells pretreated with TPA, the effect of ATP on inositol trisphosphate is reduced and the effect on Cai blunted; but ATP still leads to a hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, which is sustained in the presence, and transient in the absence, of extracellular calcium. The observations indicate that ATP activates phospholipase C by a phorbol ester and pertussis toxin sensitive mechanism. In addition, ATP enhances Cai by pertussis toxin insensitive mechanisms allowing recruitment of calcium from both, extracellular fluid and intracellular stores. Calcium then activates the potassium channels and thus leads to the hyperpolarization of the cell membrane.

Abstract
Rapid incorporation of exogenous arachidonic acid into phospholipid has been detected in conjunction with eicosanoid synthesis by purified mast cell granules [Chock, S. P. & Schmauder-Chock, E. A. (1988) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 156, 1308-1315]. The species of phospholipid formed has now been identified primarily as phosphatidylinositol. A calcium-dependent phospholipase A2 has also been detected in the secretory granule. This enzyme, like the cyclooxygenase [Schmauder-Chock, E. A. & Chock, S. P. (1989) J. Histochem. Cytochem. 37, 1319-1328], appears to bind tightly to the granule matrix components. It is heat resistant and requires millimolar concentrations of calcium for optimal activity. It prefers phosphatidylinositol over phosphatidylcholine as substrate. Since the granule contains a large amount of phospholipid, the action of this phospholipase A2 can provide the required substrate for the arachidonic acid cascade. These findings provide the basis for linking phospholipase A2 to the production of eicosanoids during granule exocytosis. Since the granule also contains both an active acylating system that can rapidly reacylate lysophosphatidylinositol to form phosphatidylinositol, and an active phospholipase A2 which hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol, a rapid turnover involving the fatty acid at the sn-2 position of phosphatidylinositol may occur. These findings are consistent with our postulation that the secretory granule is the source and/or the cause of many of the early biochemical events associated with the process of stimulus-secretion coupling.

Abstract
These experiments examined the mechanism by which phenylephrine enhances beta-adrenoceptor-stimulated cyclic AMP formation in rat hypothalamic and preoptic area slices. To this end we manipulated phospholipase C. phospholipase A2, and protein kinase C activity in slices and assessed the effects of these manipulations on phenylephrine augmentation of isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP generation. Since previous work indicated that estrogen enhances the alpha 1-component of cyclic AMP formation, we examined slices from both gonadectomized and estrogen-treated animals. The alpha 1-antagonist prazosin eliminated phenylephrine augmentation of the beta-response, suggesting that alpha 1-adrenergic receptors mediate the potentiation of cyclic AMP formation. Inhibition of protein kinase C by H7 attenuated the alpha 1-augmentation of beta-stimulated cyclic AMP formation. Staurosporine, a more potent protein kinase C inhibitor, completely abolished the alpha 1-augmenting response. In addition, phenylephrine potentiation of the isoproterenol response was not observed if protein kinase C was first stimulated directly with a synthetic diacylglycerol (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol) or phorbol ester (phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate). Neomycin, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, decreased alpha 1-receptor enhancement of beta-stimulated cyclic AMP formation, whereas quinacrine, an inhibitor of phospholipase A2, did not. The data suggest that the postreceptor mechanism involved in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor potentiation of cyclic AMP generation in hypothalamic and preoptic area slices includes activation of phospholipase C and protein kinase C.

Abstract
The alpha 1-adrenergic receptor exists as at least two distinct subtypes, alpha 1a and alpha 1b. Based on hydrophobic exclusion studies and limited proteolysis of the cloned receptor, it appears to possess characteristics analogous to other membrane-bound receptors including seven membrane spanning domains, three extracellular, and three intracellular loops, with extensive glycosylation near the extracellular amino terminus. Although the receptor is coupled to phospholipase C in cardiac myocytes, with activation resulting in the production of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol, recent findings suggest that the receptor may also be linked to phospholipase A2, phospholipase D, and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. The alpha 1-adrenergic receptor has been shown to increase in response to myocardial ischemia in a number of different species and to mediate not only positive inotropic effects, but also to contribute substantially to arrhythmogenesis. The increase in alpha 1-adrenergic receptors can also occur in isolated adult ventricular myocytes in response to hypoxia, a mechanism which appears to be secondary to the sarcolemmal accumulation of long-chain acylcarnitines. This increase in alpha 1-adrenergic receptors in hypoxic myocytes is also linked to an enhanced increase in IP3 in response to receptor stimulation. These and other findings obtained in vivo during ischemia suggest that alpha 1-adrenergic mechanisms can become prominent in myocardium under pathophysiologic conditions in which a depressed contractile state exists and may therefore serve as a secondary inotropic system. However, the arrhythmogenic effects of stimulation of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor in the ischemic heart in man may contribute substantially to arrhythmogenesis and, thereby, to the incidence of sudden cardiac death.

Abstract
Leukotriene C4 (LTC4), one of the major constituents of the slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis, induced a dose-dependent hydrolysis of phosphoinositides in [3H]inositol-prelabeled rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-1) cells. The EC50 for LTC4 to elicit the half maximum accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates (IPs) was around 20 nM. The increase in the formation of [3H]inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and [3H]inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was detectable at 2 min after the stimulation and progressed up to 30 min. Accumulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate (IP1) was observed only during the late phase of 5-30 min in the presence of LiCl. When cells were stimulated with LTC4 and LTD4 together, there was no additive accumulation in [3H]IPs. Pretreatment of cells with either LTC4 or LTD4 resulted in a decrease in production of [3H]IPs on further stimulation with the same agonist. The desensitization appeared to be heterologous since pretreatment of cells with LTC4 attenuated the responsiveness to LTD4. Conversely, pretreatment with LTD4 also diminished the responsiveness to LTC4 markedly. These results suggest that both LTC4- and LTD4-induced hydrolysis of phosphoinositides are mediated through the same effector in RBL-1 cells.

Abstract
Possible alterations in muscarinic cholinergic (mACh) signal transduction in senescence were studied in rat neostriata. Acetylcholine (ACh) activation of striatal muscarinic heteroreceptors by carbachol or oxotremorine enhances K(+)-evoked release of dopamine from perifused striata of 6- but not 24-month-old rats. Present experiments determined the effects of simultaneous activation or activation/inhibition of more than one second messenger on K(+)-evoked release of DA from perifused striatal slices from these age groups. Combinations of carbachol (500 microns), which stimulates inositol-1,4,5-bisphosphate (IP3) production and inhibits cyclic AMP production, with oxotremorine (500 microns), which inhibits cyclic AMP production, in the presence of 30 mM KCl (in a modified Krebs-Ringer medium) reduced the age-related reduction in mAChR enhancement of DA release (analyzed by HPLC coupled to electrochemical detection; 5 min fractions were collected on ice in perchloric acid; flow rate 120 microliters/min). Combinations of these agonists with the putative second messenger arachidonic acid (10 microM), also enhanced K(+)-evoked release of DA in the striatal tissue from the 24-month group. IP3 activation was lower in the striatal tissue from old animals than those from young under all conditions, but cross-activation/inhibition actually may have lowered the IP3 threshold necessary for enhanced DA release to occur. In a subsequent experiment, pre-loading striatal tissue from young animals with either carbachol or oxotremorine under basal release conditions reduced the responding when the basal release medium was switched to one containing 30 mM KCl and combinations of the agonists.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Bradykinin-stimulated prostacyclin synthesis in porcine aortic endothelial cells was enhanced by pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin or islet-activating protein (IAP) for 5 hr or longer. Although ADP-ribosylation of a protein with a molecular weight of 41-42 kD in the cell membranes was completed by 3 hr after the addition of IAP into the incubation medium, there was good correlation between enhancement of bradykinin-induced prostacyclin synthesis and ADP-ribosylation of the IAP substrate over a wide range of IAP concentrations. Furthermore, even if IAP was removed from the incubation medium at 3 hr, bradykinin-induced prostaglandin synthesis at 24 hr was still potentiated. Cycloheximide and actinomycin D enhanced bradykinin-induced prostacyclin synthesis and apparently blocked the effect of IAP. Since this result suggested the involvement of an inhibitor protein(s) of prostacyclin synthesis in the IAP effect, we studied the effect of IAP on the level of lipocortin I which is known to inhibit phospholipase A2. Western and Northern blot analyses revealed that IAP decreased the amounts of protein and mRNA of lipocortin I. These results suggest that the enhancement of bradykinin-induced prostacyclin synthesis by IAP is associated with a decrease in the level of lipocortin I.

Abstract
To test the hypothesis that oxyhemoglobin causes contraction of vascular smooth muscle by production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate which results in a release of intracellular calcium, smooth muscle cells were exposed to oxyhemoglobin and inositol trisphosphate was measured. Oxyhemoglobin, but not methemoglobin which has much less contractile action, stimulated inositol trisphosphate production. The time course was consistent with an early role for this compound in the contraction produced by hemoglobin. The increase in production of inositol trisphosphate was inhibited by pertussis toxin and also by neomycin, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, although the actions of the latter compound cannot be attributed only to an inhibition of the enzyme responsible for the production of inositol trisphosphate.
