Abstract
BACKGROUND In Eukaryotes, inositol polyphosphates (InsPs) represent a large family of secondary messengers and play crucial roes in various cellular processes. InsPs are synthesized through a series of pohophorylation reactions catalyzed by various InsP kinases in a sequential manner. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (IP3 3-kinase/IP3K), one member of InsP kinase, plays important regulation roles in InsPs metabolism by specifically phosphorylating inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) in animal cells. IP3Ks were widespread in fungi, plants and animals. However, its evolutionary history and patterns have not been examined systematically. RESULTS A total of 104 and 31 IP3K orthologues were identified across 57 plant genomes and 13 animal genomes, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that IP3K originated in the common ancestor before the divergence of fungi, plants and animals. In most plants and animals, IP3K maintained low-copy numbers suggesting functional conservation during plant and animal evolution. In Brassicaceae and vertebrate, IP3K underwent one and two duplication events, respectively, resulting in multiple gene copies. Whole-genome duplication (WGD) was the main mechanism for IP3K duplications, and the IP3K duplicates have experienced functional divergence. Finally, a hypothetical evolutionary model for the IP3K proteins is proposed based on phylogenetic theory. CONCLUSION Our study reveals the evolutionary history of IP3K proteins and guides the future functions of animal, plant, and fungal IP3K proteins.

Abstract
The ubiquitous secondary messengers, Ca2+ and cAMP, play a vital role in shaping a diverse array of physiological processes. More significantly, accumulating evidence over the past several decades underpin extensive crosstalk between these two canonical messengers in discrete sub-cellular nanodomains across various cell types. Within such specialized nanodomains, each messenger fine-tunes signaling to maintain homeostasis by manipulating the activities of cellular machinery accountable for the metabolism or activity of the complementary pathway. Interaction between these messengers is ensured by scaffolding proteins which tether components of the signaling machinery in close proximity. Disruption of dynamic communications between Ca2+ and cAMP at these loci consequently is linked to several pathological conditions. This review summarizes recent novel mechanisms underlying effective crosstalk between Ca2+ and cAMP in such nanodomains.

Abstract
Microtubule-associated end-binding protein 3 (EB3) accumulates asymmetrically at the tip-end of growing microtubules, providing a central platform for linking various cellular components. EB3 orchestrates microtubule dynamics and targeting, enabling diverse processes within neurons. Inositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase A (IP3K-A; also known as ITPKA) is a neuron-enriched protein that binds to microtubules by PKA-dependent manners. In this study, we found that IP3K-A binds to EB3 and their binding affinity is precisely regulated by protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent phosphorylation of IP3K-A at Ser119 (pSer119). We also revealed that the complex of IP3K-A and EB3 dissociates and reassociates rapidly during chemically induced LTP (cLTP) condition. This dynamic rearrangement of IP3K-A and EB3 complex will contribute remodeling of microtubule cytoskeleton allowing effective structural plasticity in response to synaptic stimulations.

Genome-wide DNA methylation changes associated with olfactory learning and memory in Apis mellifera. Sci Rep 2017; 7:17017.

Abstract
The honeybee is a model organism for studying learning and memory formation and its underlying molecular mechanisms. While DNA methylation is well studied in caste differentiation, its role in learning and memory is not clear in honeybees. Here, we analyzed genome-wide DNA methylation changes during olfactory learning and memory process in A. mellifera using whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) method. A total of 853 significantly differentially methylated regions (DMRs) and 963 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) were identified. We discovered that 440 DMRs of 648 genes were hypermethylated and 274 DMRs of 336 genes were hypomethylated in trained group compared to untrained group. Of these DMGs, many are critical genes involved in learning and memory, such as Creb, GABABR and Ip3k, indicating extensive involvement of DNA methylation in honeybee olfactory learning and memory process. Furthermore, key enzymes for histone methylation, RNA editing and miRNA processing also showed methylation changes during this process, implying that DNA methylation can affect learning and memory of honeybees by regulating other epigenetic modification processes.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase A (IP(3)K-A) is a brain specific and F-actin-binding protein. We recently demonstrated that IP(3)K-A modulates a structural reorganization of dendritic spines through F-actin remodeling, which is required for synaptic plasticity and memory formation in brain. However, detailed functions of IP(3)K-A and its regulatory mechanisms involved in the neuronal cytoskeletal dynamics still remain unknown. In the present study, we identified tubulin as a candidate of IP(3)K-A-binding protein through proteomic screening. By various in vitro and in vivo approaches, we demonstrated that IP(3)K-A was a novel microtubule-associated protein (MAP), and the N terminus of IP(3)K-A was a critical region for direct binding to tubulin in dendritic shaft of hippocampal neurons. Moreover, PKA phosphorylated Ser-119 within IP(3)K-A, leading to a significant reduction of microtubule binding affinity. These results suggest that PKA-dependent phosphorylation and microtubule binding of IP(3)K-A are involved in its regulatory mechanism for activity-dependent neuronal events such as local calcium signaling and its synaptic targeting.

Nonlinear gap junctions enable long-distance propagation of pulsating calcium waves in astrocyte networks. PLoS Comput Biol 2010; 6.

Abstract
A new paradigm has recently emerged in brain science whereby communications between glial cells and neuron-glia interactions should be considered together with neurons and their networks to understand higher brain functions. In particular, astrocytes, the main type of glial cells in the cortex, have been shown to communicate with neurons and with each other. They are thought to form a gap-junction-coupled syncytium supporting cell-cell communication via propagating Ca2+ waves. An identified mode of propagation is based on cytoplasm-to-cytoplasm transport of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) through gap junctions that locally trigger Ca2+ pulses via IP3-dependent Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release. It is, however, currently unknown whether this intracellular route is able to support the propagation of long-distance regenerative Ca2+ waves or is restricted to short-distance signaling. Furthermore, the influence of the intracellular signaling dynamics on intercellular propagation remains to be understood. In this work, we propose a model of the gap-junctional route for intercellular Ca2+ wave propagation in astrocytes. Our model yields two major predictions. First, we show that long-distance regenerative signaling requires nonlinear coupling in the gap junctions. Second, we show that even with nonlinear gap junctions, long-distance regenerative signaling is favored when the internal Ca2+ dynamics implements frequency modulation-encoding oscillations with pulsating dynamics, while amplitude modulation-encoding dynamics tends to restrict the propagation range. As a result, spatially heterogeneous molecular properties and/or weak couplings are shown to give rise to rich spatiotemporal dynamics that support complex propagation behaviors. These results shed new light on the mechanisms implicated in the propagation of Ca2+ waves across astrocytes and the precise conditions under which glial cells may participate in information processing in the brain. In recent years, the focus of Cellular Neuroscience has progressively stopped only being on neurons but started to include glial cells as well. Indeed, astrocytes, the main type of glial cells in the cortex, dynamically modulate neuron excitability and control the flow of information across synapses. Moreover, astrocytes have been shown to communicate with each other over long distances using calcium waves. These waves spread from cell to cell via molecular gates called gap junctions, which connect neighboring astrocytes. In this work, we used a computer model to question what biophysical mechanisms could support long-distance propagation of Ca2+ wave signaling. The model shows that the coupling function of the gap junction must be non-linear and include a threshold. This prediction is largely unexpected, as gap junctions are classically considered to implement linear functions. Recent experimental observations, however, suggest their operation could actually be more complex, in agreement with our prediction. The model also shows that the distance traveled by waves depends on characteristics of the internal astrocyte dynamics. In particular, long-distance propagation is facilitated when internal calcium oscillations are in their frequency-modulation encoding mode and are pulsating. Hence, this work provides testable experimental predictions to decipher long-distance communication between astrocytes.

Abstract
The localized control of second messenger levels sculpts dynamic and persistent changes in cell physiology and structure. Inositol trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P(3)] 3-kinases (ITPKs) phosphorylate the intracellular second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P(3). These enzymes terminate the signal to release Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum and produce the messenger inositol tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4)]. Independent of their enzymatic activity, ITPKs regulate the microstructure of the actin cytoskeleton. The immune phenotypes of ITPK knockout mice raise new questions about how ITPKs control inositol phosphate lifetimes within spatial and temporal domains during lymphocyte maturation. The intense concentration of ITPK on actin inside the dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons suggests a role in signal integration and structural plasticity in the dendrite, and mice lacking neuronal ITPK exhibit memory deficits. Thus, the molecular and anatomical features of ITPKs allow them to regulate the spatiotemporal properties of intracellular signals, leading to the formation of persistent molecular memories.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest in neuron-glia communication. This interest stems from the realization that glia participate in cognitive functions and information processing and are involved in many brain disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. An important process in neuron-glia communications is astrocyte encoding of synaptic information transfer-the modulation of intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) dynamics in astrocytes in response to synaptic activity. Here, we derive and investigate a concise mathematical model for glutamate-induced astrocytic intracellular Ca(2+) dynamics that captures the essential biochemical features of the regulatory pathway of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)). Starting from the well-known two-variable (intracellular Ca(2+) and inactive IP(3) receptors) Li-Rinzel model for calcium-induced calcium release, we incorporate the regulation of IP(3) production and phosphorylation. Doing so, we extend it to a three-variable model (which we refer to as the ChI model) that could account for Ca(2+) oscillations with endogenous IP(3) metabolism. This ChI model is then further extended into the G-ChI model to include regulation of IP(3) production by external glutamate signals. Compared with previous similar models, our three-variable models include a more realistic description of IP(3) production and degradation pathways, lumping together their essential nonlinearities within a concise formulation. Using bifurcation analysis and time simulations, we demonstrate the existence of new putative dynamical features. The cross-couplings between IP(3) and Ca(2+) pathways endow the system with self-consistent oscillatory properties and favor mixed frequency-amplitude encoding modes over pure amplitude-modulation ones. These and additional results of our model are in general agreement with available experimental data and may have important implications for the role of astrocytes in the synaptic transfer of information.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (IP3 3-kinase/IP(3)K) plays an important role in signal transduction in animal cells by phosphorylating inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (IP(4)). Both IP(3) and IP(4) are critical second messengers which regulate calcium (Ca(2+)) homeostasis. Mammalian IP3Ks are involved in many biological processes, including brain development, memory, learning and so on. It is widely reported that Ca(2+) is a canonical second messenger in higher plants. Therefore, plant IP3K should also play a crucial role in plant development. Recently, we reported the identification of plant IP3K gene (AtIpk2beta/AtIP3K) from Arabidopsis thaliana and its characterization. Here, we summarize the molecular cloning, biochemical properties and biological functions of IP3Ks from animal, yeast and plant. This review also discusses potential functions of IP3Ks in signaling crosstalk, inositol phosphate metabolism, gene transcriptional control and so on.

Abstract
Inositol polyphosphates, such as inositol trisphosphate, are pivotal intracellular signaling molecules in eukaryotic cells. In higher plants the mechanism for the regulation of the type and the level of these signaling molecules is poorly understood. In this study we investigate the physiological function of an Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) gene encoding inositol polyphosphate kinase (AtIPK2alpha), which phosphorylates inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate successively at the D-6 and D-3 positions, and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate at D-6, resulting in the generation of inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate. Semiquantitative reverse transcription-PCR and promoter-beta-glucuronidase reporter gene analyses showed that AtIPK2alpha is expressed in various tissues, including roots and root hairs, stem, leaf, pollen grains, pollen tubes, the flower stigma, and siliques. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing the AtIPK2alpha antisense gene under its own promoter were generated. Analysis of several independent transformants exhibiting strong reduction in AtIPK2alpha transcript levels showed that both pollen germination and pollen tube growth were enhanced in the antisense lines compared to wild-type plants, especially in the presence of nonoptimal low Ca(2+) concentrations in the culture medium. Furthermore, root growth and root hair development were also stimulated in the antisense lines, in the presence of elevated external Ca(2+) concentration or upon the addition of EGTA. In addition, seed germination and early seedling growth was stimulated in the antisense lines. These observations suggest a general and important role of AtIPK2alpha, and hence inositol polyphosphate metabolism, in the regulation of plant growth most likely through the regulation of calcium signaling, consistent with the well-known function of inositol trisphosphate in the mobilization of intracellular calcium stores.

Abstract
An impressive array of cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+](i)) signals exert control over a broad range of physiological processes. The specificity and fidelity of these [Ca2+](i) signals is encoded by the frequency, amplitude, and sub-cellular localization of the response. It is believed that the distinct characteristics of [Ca2+](i) signals underlies the differential activation of effectors and ultimately cellular events. This "shaping" of [Ca2+](i) signals can be achieved by the influence of additional signaling pathways modulating the molecular machinery responsible for generating [Ca2+](i) signals. There is a particularly rich source of potential sites of crosstalk between the cAMP and the [Ca2+](i) signaling pathways. This review will focus on the predominant molecular loci at which these classical signaling systems interact to impact the spatio-temporal pattern of [Ca2+](i) signaling in non-excitable cells.

Abstract
Inositol phosphates function as second messengers for a variety of extracellular signals. Ins(1,4,5)P(3) generated by phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate, triggers numerous cellular processes by regulating calcium release from internal stores. The Ins(1,4,5)P(3) signal is coupled to a complex metabolic cascade involving a series of phosphatases and kinases. These enzymes generate a range of inositol phosphate derivatives, many of which have signaling roles of their own. We have integrated published biochemical data to build a mass action model for InsP(3) metabolism. The model includes most inositol phosphates that are currently known to interact with each other. We have used this model to study the effects of a G-protein coupled receptor stimulus that activates phospholipase C on the inositol phosphates. We have also monitored how the metabolic cascade interacts with Ins(1,4,5)P(3)-mediated calcium release. We find temporal dynamics of most inositol phosphates to be strongly influenced by the elaborate networking. We also show that Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4) plays a key role in InsP(3) dynamics and allows for paired pulse facilitation of calcium release. Calcium oscillations produce oscillatory responses in parts of the metabolic network and are in turn temporally modulated by the metabolism of InsP(3).

Abstract
In seeking genetic factors that may control the extended behavioural maturation of adult honeybees we found that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) 3-kinase, a key enzyme in the IP(3)-mediated signalling cascade, is differentially expressed in brains of naive, newly emerged bees and experienced foragers. DNA sequencing yielded a contig of 21.5 kb spanning the honeybee IP(3)K locus and a 3' flanking gene similar to a transcription factor NFR-kappa-B. The IP(3)K locus gives rise to three differentially expressed major transcripts produced by alternative splicing that encode proteins with identical, highly conserved C-termini and distinct, non-conserved N-terminal domains. The type A transcript is dominant in the adult brain and its level of expression increases threefold during the first 4 days of adult development. The type B message is expressed in brains of naive bees, but is also found in the thorax and abdomen, whereas transcript C is expressed largely in non-neural tissues and in the antenna. In contrast to type A message, the brain levels of transcript B decrease during the first 4 days of adult life. Our data are evaluated in the context of the contrasting behavioural phenotypes of immature and experienced worker honeybees.

Abstract
Whereas previous studies have established that many mechanisms mediating pharmacomechanical coupling are subject to regulation, evidence of physiological regulation of the coupling efficiency between receptor activation and second-messenger production is scarce. The present studies address the hypothesis that acute hypoxia and maturation can influence the mass of second-messenger production for each activated agonist-bound receptor ("receptor gain"). For this assessment, receptor density and agonist affinity values were used to calculate 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) concentrations that would produce standardized numbers of bound receptors (8.5 fmol/mg protein) in each experimental group and thus minimize effects of age or hypoxia on receptor density or agonist affinity. After 3 min of exposure to these 5-HT concentrations, normoxic magnitudes of contraction were similar (as %potassium maxima) in fetal (50 +/- 14%) and adult (40 +/- 9%) arteries, but hypoxia (PO(2) approximately 9--12 Torr for 30 min) depressed contractile tensions with a significantly different time course and magnitude in fetal (30 +/- 10%) and adult (17 +/- 11%) arteries (P < 0.05). Basal inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) values (in pmol/mg protein) were significantly greater in fetal (94 +/- 16) than in adult (44 +/- 6) arteries, and integrated areas above baseline for the IP(3) time courses (in nmol-s/mg protein) were significantly greater in fetal than in adult arteries both in normoxic (14.3 +/- 1.8 vs. 9.1 +/- 1.6) and hypoxic (15.0 +/- 2.1 vs. 8.6 +/- 1.2) conditions (P < 0.05). Hypoxia altered the IP(3) time courses both in the fetus and the adult but had no significant effect on IP(3 )mobilization or receptor gain. These data demonstrate that for the 5-HT(2a) receptor predominant in this preparation, receptor gain can be experimentally determined, is not influenced by acute hypoxia, but is greater in fetal than in adult ovine carotid arteries.

Abstract
D-myo-Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) 3-kinase catalyzes the production of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate from the second messenger Ins (1,4,5)P3. Transient and okadaic acid-sensitive activation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase by 8-10-fold is observed in homogenates prepared from rat cortical astrocytes after incubation with either carbachol or UTP. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate provokes the activation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase by 2-fold in both cell systems. The kinase was purified by calmodulin-Sepharose from the two cell systems. Enzyme activity corresponding to the silver-stained 88-kDa protein could be regenerated after SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Antibodies to two distinct peptides chosen in the primary structure of human Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase B recognized the astrocytic native isoform. In [32P]orthophosphate-preincubated cells, a major phosphorylated 88-kDa enzyme could be purified and identified in cells in response to receptor activation or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate treatment. Calmodulin kinase II inhibitors (i.e. KN-93 and KN-62) and a protein kinase C inhibitor (i.e. calphostin C) prevented the phosphorylation of the 88-kDa isoenzyme. In addition to enzyme activation, a redistribution of Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase from soluble to particulate fraction of astrocytes was observed. In vitro phosphorylation of the purified enzyme by calmodulin kinase II and protein kinase C added together resulted in a maximal 60-70-fold activation.

Abstract
Cells from across the phylogenetic spectrum contain a variety of inositol phosphates. Many different functions have been ascribed to this group of compounds. However, it is remarkable how frequently several of these different inositol phosphates have been linked to various aspects of signal transduction. Therefore, this review assesses the evidence that inositol phosphates have evolved into a versatile family of second messengers.

Abstract
Serotonin robustly potentiated the activity of the InsP3 3-kinase in rat brainstem slices. This potentiation was mediated through activation of 5-HT2 receptors since it was only retrieved with the selective 5-HT2 agonist DOI but not with the 5-HT1A agonist 8OHDPAT. The enhancement of the InsP3 3-kinase activity by serotonin is positively modulated by pretreatment of the slices with the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. Moreover, the specific CaMKII antagonists KN-62 and KN-93 dramatically reduced the serotonin-evoked increase in the InsP3 3-kinase activity. It is thus concluded that InsP3 3-kinase up-regulation occurs through activation of PLC-coupled serotoninergic receptors and requires the phosphorylation of the enzyme by the ubiquitous multimeric protein kinase CaMKII.

Abstract
The pathway and kinetics of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) metabolism were measured in Xenopus laevis oocytes and cytoplasmic extracts of oocytes. Degradation of microinjected IP3 in intact oocytes was similar to that in the extracts containing comparable concentrations of IP3 ([IP3]). The rate and route of metabolism of IP3 depended on the [IP3] and the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]). At low [IP3] (100 nM) and high [Ca2+] (>/=1 microM), IP3 was metabolized predominantly by inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (3-kinase) with a half-life of 60 s. As the [IP3] was increased, inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) degraded progressively more IP3. At a [IP3] of 8 microM or greater, the dephosphorylation of IP3 was the dominant mode of IP3 removal irrespective of the [Ca2+]. At low [IP3] and low [Ca2+] (both </=400 nM), the activities of the 5-phosphatase and 3-kinase were comparable. The calculated range of action of IP3 in the oocyte was approximately 300 micron suggesting that IP3 acts as a global messenger in oocytes. In contrast to IP3, inositol 1,3,4, 5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) was metabolized very slowly. The half-life of IP4 (100 nM) was 30 min and independent of the [Ca2+]. IP4 may act to sustain Ca2+ signals initiated by IP3. The half-life of both IP3 and IP4 in Xenopus oocytes was an order of magnitude or greater than that in small mammalian cells.

Abstract
The level of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in the cytoplasm is tightly regulated by two enzymes, the inositol 1,4,5,5-phosphatase and the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase. Two isoforms of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase have been identified, the A form and the B form. The regulatory properties of the two isoforms were compared following overexpression and purification of the proteins from a v-src transformed mammalian cell line. The highly purified, recombinant inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinases were differentially regulated by calcium/calmodulin and via phosphorylation by protein kinase C or the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Both enzymes had similar affinities for inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate (Km 2-5 mu M). Calcium/calmodulin stimulated the activity of isoform A about 2.5-fold, whereas the activity of isoform B was increased 20-fold. The cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase A to the extent of 0.9 mol/mol and isoform B to 1 mol/mol. Protein kinase C phosphorylated isoform A to the extent of 2 mol/mol and isoform B to 2.7 mol/mol. Phosphorylation of isoform A by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase caused a 2.5-fold increase in its activity when assayed in the absence of calcium/calmodulin, whereas phosphorylation by protein kinase C decreased activity by 72%. The activity of isoform B in the absence of calcium/calmodulin was not affected by phosphorylation using either kinase. When assayed in the presence of calcium/calmodulin, phosphorylation of isoform A by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase increased activity 1.5-fold, whereas phosphorylation of isoform B decreased activity by 45%. Phosphorylation of either isoform A or B by protein kinase C resulted in a 70% reduction of calcium/calmodulin-stimulated activity. Differential expression and regulation of the two inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase isoforms provides multiple mechanisms for regulating the cytosolic level of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in cells.

Abstract
We have investigated cross-talk between the cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC)/inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) messenger systems probed by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and substance P (SP), respectively, in rat pituitary cell cultures enriched in lactotrophs. VIP and forskolin had no effect on the basal distribution pattern of the four PKC isozymes (alpha, beta, delta, and zeta) detectable in lactotroph-enriched cell cultures derived from peripubertal male rats, whereas both compounds significantly increased translocation of PKC alpha and beta from the cytosol to the plasma membrane induced by SP. The delta and zeta subspecies were not affected by VIP and forskolin. Moreover, VIP and forskolin also stimulated SP-induced formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 while having no effect on basal inositol phosphate turnover. The effects of VIP and forskolin on PKC isozyme distribution could be blocked by pretreating cells with the PKA inhibitor rp-cAMP. On the other hand, SP potentiated the effect of VIP and forskolin on cAMP formation while having no effect on the cAMP pathway when it was not triggered by an appropriate agonist. Down-regulation of PKC activity by long term 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) treatment (24 h) diminished, but did not abolish, the effect of SP on VIP-stimulated cAMP production. Staurosporine and dopamine inhibited the potentiating effect of SP on cAMP accumulation. TPA, which translocates PKC alpha, beta, and delta in lactotrophs, had a synergistic effect on cAMP formation induced by VIP, but did also, unlike SP, display cAMP rising abilities when cells were not exposed to VIP and forskolin. Discharging intracellular Ca2+ by thapsigargin pretreatment had no effect on the basal cAMP concentration or the VIP-induced cAMP response, whereas exposure of cells to SP, thapsigargin, and VIP resulted in a decrease of the cAMP response compared with SP + VIP. The potentiating effect of SP on the VIP response could also be inhibited, but not blocked, by staurosporine. On the basis of these results, it is concluded that there exists substantial cross-talk between the cAMP/PKA and PKC/Ins(1,4,5)P3 messenger systems in lactotroph-enriched cell cultures. Key effectors seem to be PKA, one or more of PKC alpha, beta, deleta and Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive Ca2+ stores.

Abstract
1. The effects of increased cellular cyclic AMP levels induced by isoprenaline, forskolin and 8-bromoadenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-Br-cyclic AMP) on phosphoinositide metabolism and changes in intracellular Ca2+ elicited by methacholine and histamine were examined in bovine isolated tracheal smooth muscle (BTSM) cells. 2. Isoprenaline (pD2 (-log10 EC50) = 6.32 +/- 0.24) and forskolin (pD2 = 5.6 +/- 0.05) enhanced cyclic AMP levels in a concentration-dependent fashion in these cells, while methacholine (pD2 = 5.64 +/- 0.12) and histamine (pD2 = 4.90 +/- 0.04) caused a concentration-related increase in [3H]-inositol phosphates (IP) accumulation in the presence of 10 mM LiCl. 3. Preincubation of the cells (5 min, 37 degrees C) with isoprenaline (1 microM), forskolin (10 microM) and 8-Br-cyclic AMP (1 mM) did not affect the IP accumulation induced by methacholine, but significantly reduced the maximal IP production by histamine (1 mM). However, the effect of isoprenaline was small (15.0 +/- 0.6% inhibition) and insignificant at histamine concentrations between 0.1 and 100 microM. 4. Both methacholine and histamine induced a fast (max. in 0.5-2 s) and transient increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) followed by a sustained phase lasting several minutes. EGTA (5 mM) attenuated the sustained phase, indicating that this phase depends on extracellular Ca2+. 5. Preincubation of the cells (5 min, 37 degrees C) with isoprenaline (1 microM), forskolin (10 microM) and 8-Br-cyclic AMP (1 microM) significantly attenuated both the Ca(2+)-transient and the sustained phase generated at equipotent IP producing concentrations of 1 microM methacholine and 100 microM histamine (approx. 40% of maximal methacholine-induced IP response), but did not affect changes in [Ca2+]i induced by 100 microM methacholine (95.2 +/- 3.5% of maximal methacholine-induced IP response). 6. Significant correlations were found between the isoprenaline-induced inhibition of BTSM contraction and inhibition of Ca2+ mobilization or influx induced by methacholine and histamine, that were similar for each contractile agonist. 7. These data indicate that (a) cyclic AMP-dependent inhibition of Ca2+ mobilization in BTSM cells is not primarily caused by attenuation of IP production, suggesting that cyclic AMP induced protein kinase A (PKA) activation is effective at a different level in the [Ca2+]i homeostasis, (b) that attenuation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration plays a major role in beta-adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation of methacholine- and histamine-induced airway smooth muscle contraction, and (c) that the relative resistance of the muscarinic agonist-induced contraction to beta-adrenoceptor agonists, especially at (supra) maximal contractile concentrations is largely determined by its higher potency in inducing intracellular Ca2+ changes.

Abstract
The dephosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) to inositol 1,4-bisphosphate is catalyzed by InsP3 5-phosphatase. The coding region of human brain type I InsP3 5-phosphatase was expressed as a fusion protein with the maltose-binding protein (MBP) in Escherichia coli, using the pMAL-cR1 vector. The relative molecular mass of the purified fusion protein (MBP-InsP3-5-phosphatase) was approximately M(r) 85,000 as analysed by SDS/PAGE. The yield was about 10 mg fusion protein/l lysate. After cleavage from MBP with factor Xa, the specific activity of recombinant 5-phosphatase was 120-250 mumol.mg-1.min-1. The molecular mass of purified protein by SDS/PAGE was M(r) 43,000. The activity was inactivated by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate. The possibility that protein kinase C might phosphorylate InsP3 5-phosphatase was tested on the purified 43,000 M(r) protein. In this study, we show that recombinant 5-phosphatase is not a substrate of protein kinase C.

Abstract
Age-related functional alterations in a variety of neurotransmitter systems result in modulation of interneuronal communications which has some relevance in neurological deficits observed in the aging process. The synergistic interactions between protein kinase and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (insP3)/Ca2+ pathways underlie a variety of cellular responses to external stimuli. To determine whether age-dependent changes occur in the regulation of protein kinase C and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate/Ca2+ pathways, insP3 contents as a marker for the release of intracellular calcium, saturation binding analysis of Ins P3 receptor using [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, slot/northern blot analysis of Ins P3 receptor-encoding mRNA transcripts, and the activities of Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C isozymes were investigated in the rat spinal cord. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate content and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding site density (Bmax) were quantified in the spinal cords of young (three months old), adult (12 months old) and senescent (25 months old) male Fischer 344 rats. Spinal cord content of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was increased (P < 0.01) in the 25-month old compared to the three- and 12-month old animals. The density of Ins P3 receptor in particulate membranes derived from the 25-month old rats was reduced (P < or = 0.01), but the binding affinity (Kd) was increased (P < or = 0.04) by a factor of 2.2 and 3.2 at 25 months of age when compared with three- and 12-month old animals, respectively. Young and middle-aged animals showed no differences in both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate contents and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding site density. The quantity of Ins P3 receptor mRNA was significantly increased with age in the order 25 >> 12 > 3 months of age. Total functional cytosolic and membrane-associated PKC activities were decreased (P < or = 0.05) in the 25-month compared to the three- and 12-month old rats in which activity remained unchanged. Total membrane/cytosolic activity ratios were unchanged by the aging process. In all cases, the activities of membrane-associated conventional protein kinase C isozymes (alpha, beta and gamma), determined by immunoprecipitation followed by in situ quantification of protein kinase C activities in the immunoprecipitates, showed age-dependent decline. The activities of protein kinase C-alpha and beta were significantly decreased in age-related manner. However, the activity of the gamma-isozyme was not significantly changed at 12- and 25-months of age, although it was higher (P < or = 0.03) in young rats. Western blot analyses using affinity purified polyclonal antibodies specific for each isozyme indicated a single protein with an apparent molecular mass of approximately 80 x 10(3) molec. weight for all isozymes except for the beta isozyme that also had an appreciable immunoreactive band at approximately 36 x 10(3) molec. weight. Overall, the aging process did not affect the electropheretic mobility of each isozyme. With decreased protein kinase C activity, the present data suggest that the aging process would decrease protein kinase C-induced phosphorylation of membrane proteins including Ins P3 receptor. A significant change in Ins P3 receptor affinity combined with increased levels of Ins P3 receptor mRNA-encoding transcripts in senescent rats suggests not only a modification (possibly by phosphorylation) of Ins P3 receptor protein but also the existence of multiple (spliced) variants of Ins P3 receptor in spinal neurons with increasing age. The present data indicate that the spinal contents of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate increased with age, but with decreased efficacy and number of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-activatable Ca2+ channels in the spinal cord of senescent rats. These age-related changes may contribute to the attenuated responsiveness of spinal cord neurons by phosphoinositide-coupled receptors during the aging process.

Abstract
The present studies examined the inhibitory effect of veratridine (a Na+ channel activator) on carbachol (a cholinergic agonist) stimulated inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate accumulation in rat brain cortical slices. Veratridine inhibited carbachol stimulation of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate formation (after a delay of about 30 seconds) at 60 or 120 seconds when there was little inhibition of inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate accumulation. The inhibitory effect of veratridine on carbachol stimulated inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate accumulation was abolished in the presence of ouabain or tetrodotoxin but was unaffected in low calcium conditions. Veratridine reduced the total ATP content and this effect was abolished by tetrodotoxin. The inhibitory effect of 10 but not 30 microM veratridine on inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate accumulation in the presence of carbachol was reversed by the presence of exogenous 8-bromo cyclic AMP or forskolin which activates adenylyl cyclase. However, the decrease in brain slice ATP seen in the presence of veratridine was unaffected by forskolin. Our results are compatible with the hypothesis that veratridine inhibition of carbachol-stimulated inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate formation is due to depletion of ATP at the site of Ins 1,3,4,5-P4 formation from Ins 1,4,5-P3.

Abstract
D-myo-Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) is a critical second messenger involved in signal transduction, i.e., calcium homeostasis. InsP3-kinase directly regulates the levels of InsP3 and D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). InsP3 3-kinase is a calmodulin (CaM)-dependent enzyme and is also a target for phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC). Molecular cloning of cDNA's encoding proteins presenting InsP3 3-kinase activity establish the existence of distinct isoenzymes (at least three: A, B and C). These isoforms are differentially expressed and regulated by calcium/CaM. Site-directed mutagenesis and chemical modification of InsP3 3-kinase A led to the identification of three charged residues involved in ATP/Mg2+ binding among the catalytic domain and a hydrophobic residue taking part of the CaM binding site.

Abstract
A possible interrelation between IP3 and cAMP was studied in rat myocardium through circumvention of the receptor mediated stimulatory step of adenylyl cyclase by the administration of dibutyryl cAMP (db-cAMP). Changes in IP3 and cyclic nucleotide contents were correlated to changes in contractility after 40 min of beta- and alpha-adrenergic stimulation. Rat hearts (n = 23) were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit buffer in a modified Langendorff apparatus as a working preparation. The hearts were allocated to perfusion as control (n = 6); or with phenylephrine (10(-6) mol L-1, n = 6); (-)-isoproterenol (10(-6) mol L-1, n = 6); db-cAMP (2 x 10(-4) mol L-1, n = 5). All hearts were freeze-clamped after 40 min of perfusion. Phenylephrine produced a slow increase in maxdP/dt reaching a maximal value after 10 min (P < 0.05); thereafter it decreased, reaching the control level at 30 min. Isoproterenol perfusion resulted in an early (20 s) increase in maxdP/dt (P < 0.05). Over the next 10s maxdP/dt decreased markedly reaching an inflection point at 30 s. Thereafter only a slow increase during the rest of the perfusion was seen. Dibutyryl cAMP increased maxdP/dt slowly during the whole perfusion period reaching maximum after 40 min. Cyclic-AMP was increased by 21% after 40 min of phenylephrine perfusion while the corresponding increases by isoproterenol and db-cAMP were 131 and 105%, respectively (P < 0.05). Phenylephrine increased IP3 content to the same extent as isoproterenol perfusion (P < 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

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

Abstract
Agonist-stimulated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, which generates inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol, is thought to be one of the major mechanisms underlying pharmacomechanical coupling in airway smooth muscle. This article is a review of the currently available information on phosphoinositide and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate metabolism in this tissue and includes data on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-induced Ca2+ release and the receptor mediating this effect. The final section outlines the potential mechanisms underlying physiological regulation of phosphoinositide metabolism by other second-messenger pathways operative in this tissue.

Abstract
1. We have examined the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) responses in bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells to purines (ATP, ADP and analogues) and the pyrimidine, uridine triphosphate (UTP). 2. Exchange of medium on BAE cells in the absence of agonist was found to be a stimulus for Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation. BAE cells stimulated with 100 microM ATP, 30 microM 2MeSATP (an agonist at P2Y-purinoceptors but not nucleotide receptors) or 100 microM UTP (an agonist at nucleotide receptors but not P2Y-purinoceptors) gave Ins(1,4,5)P3 responses above that caused by exchange of medium. The time course was rapid, with peak response within the first 5 s and levels returning close to basal after 30 s of stimulation. 3. Significant differences in Ins(1,4,5)P3 responses to 100 microM UTP and 30 microM 2MeSATP stimulation were observed. The response to UTP was reproducibly more sustained than that to 2MeSATP. 4. Stimulation of BAE cells with 100 microM UTP plus 30 microM 2MeSATP produced a response statistically indistinguishable from that predicted by addition of the responses to the two agonists in isolation. 5. The Ins(1,4,5)P3 response to UTP was attenuated to 25% of control by pretreatment of BAE cells with pertussis toxin. Responses to 2MeSATP and ADP were essentially unaffected. ATP stimulation was reduced to 65% of control. 6. Activation of protein kinase C with tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA) profoundly inhibited Ins(1,4,5)P3 responses to 2MeSATP and ADP but had no effect on UTP stimulation. The protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro 31-8220, enhanced responses to 2MeSATP, ADP and ATP but no effect was observed on UTP stimulation. 7. These observations show that nucleotide and P2Y-receptors mobilise the second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P3 by separate routes resulting in different patterns of generation and suggest that while ATP activates both receptors, ADP principally influences these cells by interacting with the P2Y-purinoceptors.

Abstract
Olfactory responses appear not only at the onset of odor stimulation, but also at the termination of the stimulation. It is widely considered that the cAMP-pathway is involved in the generation of odor responses. We examined how cAMP affects the generation of off-responses. To explore the role of the cAMP-pathway, odorants were applied to the turtle olfactory epithelium after forskolin at high concentrations which saturated the olfactory response to forskolin. Various odorants induced off-responses after 50 microM forskolin, indicating that off-responses are not induced via the cAMP-dependent pathway. However, the magnitude of the off-response after forskolin varied from 100 to 1400% of those of off-responses in its absence, indicating that forskolin greatly enhanced the off-responses to some odorants. The off-response after 0.1 mM citralva was also enhanced by 3 mM 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cpt-cAMP). These results suggested that cAMP modulates off-responses in the turtle olfactory system.

Abstract
To determine whether the intracellular calcium-mobilizing second messenger, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and its receptor (InsP3R) display age-dependent coordinate regulation, InsP3 content and [3H]InsP3-binding characteristics were investigated in cerebellar particulate membranes prepared from male Fischer 344 rats at 3, 12 and 25 months of age. Cerebellar InsP3 content was significantly increased in 25-month-old rats compared with 3-month-old animals. Cerebellar InsP3R densities were significantly reduced at 12 and 25 months of age but InsP3-binding affinity was significantly decreased only in the 25-month-old animals. The present data strongly suggest that modulation of the phosphoinositide second messenger system may contribute to impaired neuronal responsiveness associated with the aging process in the cerebellum.

Abstract
Previous work in [3H]inositol-labelled GH3 pituitary tumor cells stimulated with thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) reported the existence of at least ten distinct [3H]inositol-containing substances which were identified as different inositol mono-, bis- and tris-phosphate isomers [1]. Here a complete kinetic study of the dephosphorylation pathways of the second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P3 is reported in GH3 cell homogenates, identifying a new intermediate, Ins(4,5)P2, in the metabolism of the second messenger. in vitro results obtained with exogenous substrates are compared with in vivo results obtained measuring levels of the endogenous [3H]inositol-labelled isomers that participate in the dephosphorylation pathways of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in resting and TRH-stimulated GH3 cells. The effect of Li+ on the activity of the different phosphatases involved in these pathways is studied as well.

Abstract
Details of the widely employed PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis receptor-stimulated signalling pathway continue to be elucidated rapidly. However, it has recently become apparent that numerous other inositol lipids and phosphates are widespread and are likely to have important cellular functions. In this review, we focus particularly on three rapidly progressing areas: the synthesis and possible functions of 3-phosphorylated inositol lipids, particularly phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate; the roles of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate in coordinating intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and Ca2+ influx in stimulated cells; and the metabolism and possible functions of other inositol polyphosphates and of inositol polyphosphate pyrophosphates.

Abstract
Prostaglandin (PG) production by human amnion has been postulated to have a role in the onset of labor. Previous work by ourselves and others has demonstrated that oxytocin, phorbol esters and epidermal growth factor (EGF) increase PGE2 production in human amnion cells by activation of the Phospholipase C/Protein Kinase C (PKC) cascade system. The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of prior activation of the Adenylate Cyclase cascade system upon subsequent stimulation of PGE2 production by oxytocin, phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) or EGF in amnion cells and membrane discs. Isoproterenol, forskolin and dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dbcAMP) were utilized to activate the Adenylate Cyclase system at the receptor, enzyme and second messenger level. In control amnion cells, oxytocin, PMA and EGF each provoked dose dependent increases in PGE2 production. In cells preincubated with dbcAMP, forskolin or isoproterenol, agonist stimulated PGE2 production was markedly (50-90%) inhibited (p < 0.01). Inhibition was dose dependent upon preincubator concentrations. Maximal inhibition by adenylate cyclase activators occurred with 2-4 h of preincubation. In membrane discs, forskolin preincubation also inhibited oxytocin, PMA and EGF stimulation of PGE2 production. Activation of the Adenylate Cyclase system in human amnion cells or membrane discs inhibits the subsequent action of potent stimulators of PGE2 production in human amnion.

Abstract
1. The possibility that bradykinin- or histamine-stimulated inositol polyphosphate accumulation may be regulated by protein kinase C (PKC) in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been addressed. 2. Initial experiments confirmed that the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) dramatically inhibited agonist-stimulated [3H]-inositol phosphate accumulations in [3H]-inositol prelabelled cells. In contrast, the PKC inhibitor, Ro 31-8220, did not affect this response. 3. Histamine (100 microM) or bradykinin (100 nM) evoked rapid increases in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) mass accumulations (maximal accumulations within 10 s and 30 s, respectively) which declined towards basal values over a 10 min incubation period. TPA (1 microM) significantly attenuated the peak Ins(1,4,5)P3 response to bradykinin and histamine by 30% and 70% respectively. In contrast, TPA did not significantly affect agonist-stimulated Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 responses. 4. Ro 31-8220 (10 microM) significantly enhanced the maximal Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulations elicited by both bradykinin and histamine. 5. The results indicate that the initial Ins(1,4,5)P3 response to either bradykinin or histamine in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells can be attenuated by PKC activation by phorbol ester and enhanced by PKC inhibition by Ro 31-8220. In contrast, agonist-stimulated Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 accumulation does not appear to be affected by these manipulations of PKC activity. Possible bases for differential modulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 are discussed.

Abstract
As a result of its interaction with a specific receptor, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate mobilizes intracellular calcium. The metabolism of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is rather complex: inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase produces inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, a putative second messenger. In order to elucidate inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate function, a comparative in situ hybridization study of the distributions of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase and receptor mRNAs was performed in the adult rat brain using oligonucleotides derived from their cDNA sequences. The neuronal distributions of the mRNA for the receptor were larger than for the kinase. Highest levels of both mRNAs were found in the cerebellar Purkinje cells, where they were enriched in their neuronal perikarya and to a lesser extent in their dendrites. In addition to the cerebellum, mRNAs were mainly detected in the hippocampal pyramidal cells of the CA1 sector of the Ammon's horn and in the granule cells of the dentate gyrus, and also in a majority of the neurons in the cortical layers II-III and V, especially in the frontal cortex and cingulate cortex; caudate-putamen, accumbens, olfactory tubercle and Calleja islets; claustrum; anterior olfactory nucleus; taenia tecta; piriform cortex; dorsolateral septum; bed nucleus stria terminalis; amygdala; hippocampal CA2-4 sectors and subiculum. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor mRNA but not kinase mRNA was found in a majority of the neurons in the thalamus, especially in the parafascicular nucleus; hypothalamus, especially the medial hypothalamus; substantia nigra pars compacta and ventral tegmental area; superior colliculus; lateral interpeduncular nucleus and central gray. Taking into account the limitation in sensitivity of the technique, both mRNAs were not detected in glial cells and in the olfactory bulb; basal nucleus of Meynert, diagonal band nuclei; medial septal nucleus; substantia innominata; globus pallidus; entopeduncular nucleus; substantia nigra pars reticulata; ventral pallidum; subthalamic nucleus; spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia. In conclusion, cerebellum and hippocampus appear to contain almost similar levels of kinase mRNA. This is in contrast to receptor mRNA levels which were at much higher levels in the cerebellum when compared with the hippocampus. For this reason, we have chosen hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells and dentate gyrus granule cells for studying inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase function.

Abstract
Subcellular localization of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase in the rat cerebellar cortex was studied immunohistochemically using a monoclonal antibody. Electron microscopy revealed intense immunoreactivity in the dendritic spines of Purkinje cells forming synapses with the parallel fibers, climbing fibers and recurrent collaterals of Purkinje cell axons. The labelling was associated with the hypolemmal cisternae, surrounding matrix and plasmalemma including the postsynaptic densities. Weaker immunoreactivity was present in the dendritic spines of basket cells and in certain segments of Purkinje cell recurrent collaterals. The postsynaptic regions of the dendritic trunks of Purkinje and basket cells were negative. These results indicate that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase is distributed amongst the spines of various synaptic relations with different electrophysiological properties, and that axon terminals of certain cell types are another functional site for the enzyme.

Abstract
Neutrophils activated by the formyl peptide f-Met-Leu-Phe transiently accumulate a small subset of highly polar inositol lipids. A similar family of lipids also appear in many other cells in response to a range of growth factors and activated oncogenes, and are presumed to be the direct or indirect products of 3-phosphatidylinositol kinase. The structures of these lipids are shown to be phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, phosphatidylinositol-(3,4)bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)trisphosphate, and we present evidence that in intact neutrophils a phosphatidyl-inositol-(4,5)bisphosphate-3-kinase seems to be the focal point through which agonists stimulate the formation of 3-phosphorylated inositol lipids.

Abstract
This review assimilates information on the regulation of the metabolism of those inositol phosphates and diacylglycerols that respond to receptor activation. Particular emphasis is placed on the regulation of specific enzymes, the occurrence of isoenzymes, and metabolic compartmentalization; the overall aim is to demonstrate the significance of these activities in relation to the physiological impact of the various cell signalling processes.
