Abstract
The ability to exert control over lipid properties, including structure, charge, function, and self-assembly characteristics is a powerful tool that can be implemented to achieve a wide range of biomedical applications. Examples in this arena include the development of caged lipids for controlled activation of signaling properties, metabolic labeling strategies for tracking lipid biosynthesis, lipid activity probes for identifying cognate binding partners, approaches for in situ membrane assembly, and liposome triggered release strategies. In this Account, we describe recent advancements in the latter area entailing the development of stimuli-responsive liposomes through programmable changes to lipid self-assembly properties, which can be harnessed to drive the release of encapsulated contents toward applications including drug delivery. We will focus on an emerging paradigm involving liposomal platforms that are sensitized toward chemical agents ranging from metal cations to small organic molecules that exhibit dysregulation in disease states. This has been achieved by developing synthetic lipid switches that are designed to undergo programmed conformational changes upon the recognition of specific target analytes. These structural alterations are leveraged to perturb the packing of lipids within the membrane and thereby drive the release of encapsulated contents.We provide an overview of the inspiration, design, and characterization of liposomes that selectively respond to wide-ranging target analytes. This series of studies began with the development of calcium-responsive liposomes utilizing a lipid switch inspired by sensors including indo-1. Following this successful demonstration, we next showed that the selectivity of the lipid switch could be altered among different metal cations by producing a liposomal platform for which release is induced through zinc binding. Our next goal was to develop metabolite-responsive liposomes in which switching is driven by molecular recognition events involving phosphorylated small molecules. In this work, screening of lipid switches designed to interact with phosphorylated metabolites led to the identification of liposomal formulations that selectivity release contents in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Finally, we were able to modulate the metabolite selectivity by rationally designing a modified lipid switch structure that is activated through complexation of inositol-(1,4,5)-trisphosphate (IP3). These projects show the progression of our approaches for liposome release triggered by molecular recognition principles, building from ion-responsive lipid switches to structures that are activated by small molecules. These "smart" liposomal platforms provide an important addition to the toolbox for controlled cargo release since they respond to ions or small molecules that are commonly overproduced by diseased cells.

Abstract
Autonomic neural activation of intracellular Ca2+ release in parotid acinar cells induces the secretion of the fluid and protein components of primary saliva critical for maintaining overall oral homeostasis. In the current study, we profiled the role of acidic organelles in shaping the Ca2+ signals of parotid acini using a variety of imaging and pharmacological approaches. Results demonstrate that zymogen granules predominate as an apically polarized population of acidic organelles that contributes to the initial Ca2+ release. Moreover, we provide evidence that indicates a role for the intracellular messenger NAADP in the release of Ca2+ from acidic organelles following elevation of cAMP. Our data are consistent with the "trigger" hypothesis where localized release of Ca2+ sensitizes canonical intracellular Ca2+ channels to enhance signals from the endoplasmic reticulum. Release from acidic stores may be important for initiating saliva secretion at low levels of stimulation and a potential therapeutic target to augment secretory activity in hypofunctioning salivary glands.

Abstract
Pilocarpine has been used as a choice of drugs for treatment of impaired salivary flow. Although considerable data are available as to the stimulatory effect of pilocarpine on the salivary secretion in human, its underlying mechanism, at the cellular level, has not been rigorously studied. In this experiment, we studied the effect of pilocarpine on the ion channel activity, cytoplasmic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and aquaporin (AQP)-5 expression, which play key roles in the secretary process and determine the capacity of fluid secretion. In human submandibular gland (SMG) acinar cells, 10(-5) M pilocarpine activated the outward rectifying-current, which was predominantly K(+) selective in the whole cell patch clamp study. The pilocarpine increased [Ca(2+)](i) in a concentration-dependent manner in the range of 10(-6) M to 10(-4) M. We found that both increases of [Ca(2+)](i) and outward rectifying- K(+) current were inhibited by 10(-5) M U-73122, a specific phospholipase C inhibitor. The magnitudes of pilocarpine-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients were approximately 55% lower than those with the same concentration of carbachol (CCh). Pilocarpine also increased the amount of AQP-5 protein in the apical membrane (APM) in human SMG acinar cells. Our results suggest that pilocarpine induce salivary secretions in human by activating K(+) channels, increasing [Ca(2+)](i) via phospholipase C dependent pathway, and increasing AQP-5 protein expression in the APM of SMG acinar cells.

Abstract
Aquaporin-5 (AQP5) is important in salivary fluid secretion in response to cholinergic and adrenergic stimuli in rat parotid glands. We hypothesized that expression and function of AQP5 might change with age. Acetylcholine and epinephrine induced increases in AQP5 levels in the apical plasma membranes of both young adult and senescent rats. The stimulatory effect of acetylcholine, but not that of epinephrine, on AQP5 levels in the apical plasma membranes of the cells decreased markedly during aging. The quinuclidine derivative, SNI-2011, induced a persistent increase in AQP5 levels in the apical plasma membrane in the cells of both these rats. The amounts of M(3)-muscarinic receptor and Gq proteins did not decrease during aging. The age-related alteration in the responsiveness of AQP5 in the cells to these stimuli might account for the concomitant changes in nitric oxide synthase activity. These results suggest that SNI-2011 might have therapeutic benefit for the treatment of age-related xerostomia.

Abstract
1. This study examined the effect of diazepam (DZP) on phosphoinositide turnover, which plays an important role in the regulation of salivary secretion, in rat parotid acinar cells. 2. DZP (10(-9) M to 10(-5) M), a potent agonist of both central- and peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptors, dose-dependently decreased inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate IP3 production stimulated by carbachol, a muscarinic receptor agonist, in the cells. 3. DZP produced a maximum inhibitory response at a concentration of 10(-5) M, with IP3 production decreased to 63% of maximal levels. The concentration inducing half maximal inhibition of IP3 production was approximately 3.5 x 10 (-8) M. 4. An inhibitory response to DZP was produced by a short-term pretreatment (<3 min) of the cells and prevented by antagonist and competing ligand for the central- and peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptors, flumazenil and PK 11195, respectively. 5. DZP showed a non-competitive inhibition of carbachol-stimulated IP3 production. It did not directly inhibit the activities of GTP-binding regulatory proteins and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C (PLC) in the parotid gland membranes, though choline chloride inhibited PLC activity. 6. DZP (10(-5) M) attenuated the increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in the cells following stimulation of the muscarinic and alpha(1)-adrenoceptors. 7. These results suggest that in the parotid acinar cells, DZP inhibits muscarinic receptor-stimulated IP3 production through benzodiazepine receptors and that PLC activity which produces IP3 is inhibited by chloride. The decreases in IP3 and [Ca(2+)](i) in the cells may be connected with the suppression of salivary secretion induced by DZP.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated generation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) initiates Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and the subsequent activation of store-operated calcium influx. InsP3 is metabolized within seconds by 5-phosphatase and 3-kinase, yielding Ins(1,4)P2 and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4), respectively. Some studies have suggested that InsP4 controls Ca2+ influx in combination with InsP3 (refs 3 and 4), but another study did not find the same result. Some of the apparent conflicts between these previous studies have been resolved; however, the physiological function of InsP4 remains elusive. Here we have investigated the function of InsP4 in Ca2+ influx in the mast cell line RBL-2H3, and we show that InsP4 inhibits InsP3 metabolism through InsP3 5-phosphatase, thereby facilitating the activation of the store-operated Ca2+ current I(CRAC) (ref. 9). Physiologically, this mechanism opens a discriminatory time window for coincidence detection that enables selective facilitation of Ca2+ influx by appropriately timed low-level receptor stimulation. At higher concentrations, InsP4 acts as an inhibitor of InsP3 receptors, enabling InsP4 to act as a potent bi-modal regulator of cellular sensitivity to InsP3, which provides both facilitatory and inhibitory feedback on Ca2+ signalling.

Abstract
Cellular signaling mediated by inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1, 4,5)P(3)) results in oscillatory intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) release. Because the amplitude of the Ca(2+) spikes is relatively invariant, the extent of the agonist-mediated effects must reside in their ability to regulate the oscillating frequency. Using electroporation techniques, we show that Ins(1,4,5)P(3), Ins(1,3,4, 5)P(4), and Ins(1,3,4,6)P(4) cause a rapid intracellular Ca(2+) release in resting HeLa cells and a transient increase in the frequency of ongoing Ca(2+) oscillations stimulated by histamine. Two poorly metabolizable analogs of Ins(1,4,5)P(3), Ins(2,4,5)P(3), and 2,3-dideoxy-Ins(1,4,5)P(3), gave a single Ca(2+) spike and failed to alter the frequency of ongoing oscillations. Complete inhibition of Ins(1,4,5)P(3) 3-kinase (IP3K) by either adriamycin or its specific antibody blocked Ca(2+) oscillations. Partial inhibition of IP3K causes a significant reduction in frequency. Taken together, our results indicate that Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4) is the frequency regulator in vivo, and IP3K, which phosphorylates Ins(1,4, 5)P(3) to Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4), plays a major regulatory role in intracellular Ca(2+) oscillations.

Abstract
Agonist-induced Ca2+ oscillations in rat hepatocytes involve the production of myo-inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which stimulates the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. The oscillatory frequency is conditioned by the agonist concentration. This study investigated the role of IP3 concentration in the modulation of oscillatory frequency by using microinjected photolabile IP3 analogs. Photorelease of IP3 during hormone-induced oscillations evoked a Ca2+ spike, after which oscillations resumed with a delay corresponding to the period set by the agonists. IP3 photorelease had no influence on the frequency of oscillations. After photorelease of 1-(alpha-glycerophosphoryl)-D-myo-inositol-4,5-diphosphate (GPIP2), a slowly metabolized IP3 analog, the frequency of oscillations initially increased by 34% and declined to its original level within approximately 6 min. Both IP3 and GPIP2 effects can be explained by their rate of degradation: the half-life of IP3, which is a few seconds, can account for the lack of influence of IP3 photorelease on the frequency, whereas the slower metabolism of GPIP2 allowed a transient acceleration of the oscillations. The phase shift introduced by IP3 is likely the result of the brief elevation of Ca2+ during spiking that resets the IP3 receptor to a state of maximum inactivation. A mathematical model of Ca2+ oscillations is in satisfactory agreement with the observed results.

Abstract
Treatment of NIH 3T3 cells with cytochalasin D (10 microM, 1 h at 37 degrees C) disrupted the actin cytoskeleton and changed the cells from a planar, extended morphology, to a rounded shape. Calcium mobilization by ATP or by platelet-derived growth factor was abolished, while the ability of thapsigargin (2 microM) to empty calcium stores and activate calcium influx was unaffected. Similar experiments with nocodazole to depolymerize the tubulin network yielded identical results. Platelet-derived growth factor induced an increase in inositol phosphates, and this increase was undiminished in the presence of cytochalasin D. Therefore, the blockade of agonist responses by this drug does not result from decreased phospholipase C. Injection of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) released calcium to the same extent in control and cytochalasin D-treated cells. Confocal microscopic studies revealed a significant rearrangement of the endoplasmic reticulum after cytochalasin D treatment. Thus, disruption of the cytoskeleton blocks agonist-elicited [Ca2+]i mobilization, but this effect does not result from a lower calcium storage capacity, impaired function of the IP3 receptor, or diminished phospholipase C activity. We suggest that cytoskeletal disruption alters the spatial relationship between phospholipase C and IP3 receptors, impairing phospholipase C-dependent calcium signaling. Capacitative calcium entry was not altered under these conditions, indicating that the coupling between depletion of intracellular calcium stores and calcium entry does not depend on a precise structural relationship between intracellular stores and plasma membrane calcium channels.

Abstract
Repetitive transient increases in cytosolic calcium concentration (calcium spikes or calcium oscillations) are a common mode of signal transduction in receptor-mediated cell activation. Repetitive calcium spikes are initiated by phospholipase C-mediated production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and are thought to be generated by a positive feedback mechanism in which calcium potentiates its own release, a negative feedback mechanism by which calcium release is terminated, and a slow recovery process that defines the time interval between calcium spikes. The molecular mechanisms that terminate each calcium spike and define the spike frequency are not yet known. Here we show, in intact rat basophilic leukemia cells, that calcium responses induced by InsP3 are diminished for a period of 30-60 s following an InsP3-induced calcium spike. The sensitivity of calcium release for InsP3 was probed by UV laser-mediated photorelease of InsP3, and calcium responses were monitored by fluorescence calcium imaging. A maximal loss in sensitivity (desensitization) was observed for InsP3 increases that resulted in a near maximal calcium spike and was expressed as an 80-100% reduction in the calcium response to an equal amount of InsP3, released 10 s after the first UV pulse. When the amount of released InsP3 in the second pulse was increased 2-3-fold, desensitization was overcome and a second calcium response of equal amplitude to the first was produced. A power dependence of 3.2 was measured between the amount of released InsP3 and the amplitude of the triggered calcium response, explaining how a small decrease in InsP3 sensitivity can lead to a nearly complete reduction in the calcium response. Desensitization was abolished by the addition of the calcium buffers BAPTA and EGTA and could be induced by microinjection of calcium, suggesting that it is a calcium-dependent process. Half-maximal desensitization was observed at a free calcium concentration of 290 nM and increased with a power of 3.7 with peak calcium concentration. These studies suggest that reversible desensitization of InsP3-induced calcium release serves as a "saw-tooth" parameter that controls the termination of each spike and the frequency of calcium spikes.

Abstract
Lithium has a biphasic effect of the agonist-dependent accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. These effects consist of a transient reduction, followed by a long-lasting increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 as compared to controls. The Li+ effects are dose dependent, and were observed at concentrations used in the treatment of bipolar disorders, and thus may have therapeutic implications. The mechanism of the Li+ effect on Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation requires further investigation. The transient reduction of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was observed under conditions where Li+ causes only a moderate increase in the inositol mono- and bi-phosphates. Supplementation with exogenous inositol had no effect on the level of Ins(1,4,5)P3, indicating that the mechanism of the Li(+)-dependent reduction of Ins(1,4,5)P3 is not due to inositol depletion. Li+ did not interfere with degradation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 after receptor-blockage with atropine, suggesting that Li+ has no direct effect on the Ins(1,4,5)P3 metabolizing enzymes. A direct effect of Li+ on the phospholipase C is also unlikely. Entry of Ca2+ into the cells is an important factor, which affects agonist-stimulated accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, as well as absolute values of Li(+)-dependent increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3; however, it is not essential for the manifestation of Li+ effects. Our results also show that manifestation of Li+ effects in human neuroblastoma cells requires the stimulation of muscarinic receptors and activation of PLCs, PKCs, and/or that other staurosporine/H-7/GF 109203X-sensitive protein kinases are involved in the regulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 during the plateau phase of ACh-stimulation. We also suggest an important role for these enzymes in the Li(+)-dependent elevation of Ins(1,4,5)P3.

Abstract
Epithelial cells exist in a complex setting in which responses to mucosal or serosal environments are mediated by receptors expressed on specialized cellular domains, such as apical versus basolateral cell membranes. We investigated whether airway epithelia can react selectively through G-protein-coupled receptors to stimuli in the mucosal or serosal environments by measuring inositol phosphate and intracellular Ca2+ responses in polarized human nasal epithelial monolayers. We report here that unilateral ATP (10(-4) M) administration stimulated P2 purinoceptors and tapped pools of intracellular Ca2+ associated with the plasma membrane ipsilateral but not contralateral to stimulated receptors. Similarly, activation of plasma membrane Ca2+ influx by ATP was confined to the membrane ipsilateral to receptor stimulation. These findings demonstrate that polarized epithelia restrict P2 receptor-mediated responses to a single domain of the cell, reflecting membrane-specific generation and catabolism of inositol phosphates and confinement of calcium influx regulation to the membrane ipsilateral to the stimulated receptors.

Abstract
The correlation between acetylcholine induced changes in the intracellular free, Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), and the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) content in isolated acini from the rat parotid and lacrimal glands was investigated. Applying digital image processing on Fura-2 loaded acini, we observed that Ca2+ increases either simultaneously throughout the acinar configurations or that occasionally, the rise near the lumen can precede the rise near the basal part by 50-100 ms. Measurements on cell suspensions revealed a correlation between changes in [Ca2+]i and changes in the cellular Ins(1,4,5)P3 content, and it is concluded that in the individual cells Ins(1,4,5)P3 is released to the cytosol within the first second after stimulation. Applying a diffusion coefficient for cytoplasmic Ins(1,4,5)P3 of 2.83 x 10(-6) cm2/s (Allbritton et al., 1992, Science, 258, 1812-1815), we have calculated the concentration profile for this messenger in a sphere with a radius of 10 microns where Ins(1,4,5)P3 is released in the center following a monoexponential function with a rate constant of 4 s-1. Assuming that Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentrations of 1 or 5% of the maximum value is able to release Ca2+, we calculated that Ca2+ waves can appear at a rate of 100 or 40 microns/s. The present data are consistent with Ins(1,4,5)P3 being a cellular messenger, that by diffusion, initiates the Ca2+ release from the cellular pools within the first fraction of a second.

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. Adaptation of muscarinic receptors (MR)--muscarinic stimulation--induced intracellular Ca2+ mobilization during short-heat exposure (33 degrees C). 2. Heat-exposure for 48 hr decreased the carbachol (CCh)-stimulated cytosolic Ca2+ concentration increase. 3. The number of MR on cell surface increased transiently at 24 hr with a subsequent decrease at 48 hr. 4. CCh-stimulated inositol triphosphate (IP3) formation decreased at 48 hr. 5. In saponin-permeabilized cells, 1,4,5-IP3-induced 45Ca2+ release decreased at 24 hr. 6. The data suggest that the adaptation for increased muscarinic stimulation occurs at IP3 generating sites as well as at intracellular IP3 receptor sites during heat exposure.

Abstract
Monensin is used as a sodium ionophore to examine the effect of Na+ on cellular function in a variety of cell types. In the present study, we investigated the effects of different concentrations of monensin on the signal transduction system in exocrine parotid acinar cells. Monensin increased cytosolic free Na+ concentration, measured by the Na+ indicator sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate in a concentration-dependent manner (0.01 to 100 microM). Likewise, monensin concentration-dependently increased amylase release and intracellular Ca2+ concentration in the presence and the absence of extracellular Ca2+. Low concentrations (0.01 to 1 microM) of monensin did not release Ca2+ from non-mitochondrial intracellular pools in permeabilized cells with saponin but high concentrations (10 and 100 microM) of monensin which are of practical usage did. Monensin itself did not change the cyclic AMP accumulation, whereas high concentrations (10 and 100 microM) but not low concentrations (0.01 to 1 microM) of monensin inhibited cyclic AMP accumulation elevated by isoproterenol in the presence and absence of extracellular Na+. These results indicate that high concentrations of monensin, which are practically used, have nonspecific actions in rat parotid acinar cells, and lower concentrations of monensin are recommended for use as a sodium ionophore.

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

Abstract
Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and intracellular Ba2+ ([Ba2+]i) in single AR42J cells were used to evaluate the effect of [Ca2+]i and [Ba2+]i on agonist-evoked [Ca2+]i oscillations. Variations in [Ca2+]i and [Ba2+]i were imposed by gradual activation of entry through voltage-activated Ca2+ channels (VACC) present in the plasma membrane of these cells. Activation of high K+ was followed by partial inactivation of the channels and stabilization of [Ca2+]i at a new steady-state level depending on the extent of depolarization. Activation by BAY K 8644 was followed by complete inactivation and return of [Ca2+]i to resting levels. Ba2+ activated the channels and entered the cells but could not be removed from the cytosol by cellular Ca2+ pumps. The use of channel blockers and the ability to increase [Ca2+]i and [Ba2+]i by channel activation during [Ca2+]i oscillations showed that VACC do not contribute to or are activated during agonist-stimulated Ca2+ oscillation in this cell type. Graded activation of VACC showed that an increase in [Ca2+]i between the spikes to below 200 nM increased the frequency of the oscillation. Further increase in [Ca2+]i caused gradual reduction in the frequency. At [Ca2+]i above 500 nM, [Ca2+]i oscillations were inhibited. The inhibitory but not the stimulatory effects of [Ca2+]i on the oscillations can be mimicked by [Ba2+]i. These observations suggest that [Ca2+]i levels between the spikes play an important role in regulating the oscillations.

Abstract
Microinjection of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) into Xenopus oocytes evokes a complex physiological response composed of a transient and a slow depolarizing chloride current. We investigated the relationship between intracellular levels of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the kinetics of the physiological response. Microinjected Ins(1,4,5)P3 was slowly degraded following first order kinetics of disappearance (t1/2 = 10 min). The degradation products were inositol bisphosphate (InsP2), inositol monophosphate (InsP) and inositol, as well as inositol tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). The rate of degradation of injected 3[H]-Ins(1,4)P2 was much greater (t1/2 = 3 min), indicating that the conversion of InsP3 to InsP2 may be the rate-limiting step in the degradation process. The slow degradation of 3[H]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 was not a result of its conversion to Ins(1,3,4)P3 since no accumulation of InsP3 was observed within 10 min of microinjection of 3[H]-Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Activation of protein kinase C (PK-C) with a phorbol ester transiently increased the rate of conversion of 3[H]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 to InsP2. This, however, did not significantly affect the overall kinetics of 3[H]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 disappearance. Our results indicate that the kinetics of Ins(1,4,5)P3 degradation do not correlate well with the termination of both the rapid and the slow components of the physiological response. The termination of the slow component of the response, however, may be related to the decay of Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced 45Ca efflux, which lasted about 10 min.

Abstract
In NG108-15 cells, bradykinin (BK) and thapsigargin (TG) caused transient increases in a cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), after which [Ca2+]i elevated by TG only declined to a higher, sustained level than an unstimulated level. In PC12 cells, carbachol (CCh) evoked a transient increase in [Ca2+]i followed by a sustained rise of [Ca2+]i, whereas [Ca2+]i elevated by TG almost maintained its higher level. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, the sustained elevation of [Ca2+]i induced by each drug we used was abolished. In addition, the rise in [Ca2+]i stimulated by TG was less affected after CCh or BK, whereas CCh or BK caused no increase in [Ca2+]i after TG. TG neither increased cellular inositol phosphates nor modified the inositol phosphates format on stimulated by CCh or BK. We conclude that TG may release Ca2+ from both IP3-sensitive and -insensitive intracellular pools and that some kinds of signalling to link the intracellular Ca2+ pools and Ca2+ entry seem to exist in neuronal cells.

Abstract
The gene for the human substance P receptor (NK-1) was cloned using cDNA probes made by the polymerase chain reaction from primers based on the rat sequence. The gene spans 45-60 kb and is contained in five exons, with introns interrupting at sites homologous to those in the NK-2 receptor gene. Analysis of restriction digests of genomic DNA from mouse/human cell hybrids indicates the NK-1 receptor is a single-copy gene located on human chromosome 2. Polymerase chain reaction using primers based on the 5' and 3' ends of the coding sequence was used to generate full-length cDNAs from human lung and from IM9 lymphoblast cells. When transfected into COS-7 cells, the NK-1 receptor binds 125I-BHSP with a Kd of 0.35 +/- 0.07 nM and mediates substance P induced phosphatidylinositol metabolism. The receptor is selective for substance P; the relative affinity for neurokinin A and neurokinin B is 100- and 500-fold lower, respectively. Human IM9 lymphoblast cells express relatively high levels of the NK-1 receptor, and Northern blot analysis indicates modulation of mRNA levels by glucocorticoids and growth factors, suggesting that this cell line may be useful as a model for studying the control of NK-1 receptor gene expression.

Abstract
In many cell types, receptor activation of phosphoinositidase C results in an initial release of intracellular Ca2+ stores followed by sustained Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is the mediator of the initial Ca2+ release, although its role in the mechanism underlying Ca2+ entry remains controversial. We have now used two techniques to introduce inositol phosphates into mouse lacrimal acinar cells and measure their effects on Ca2+ entry: microinjection into cells loaded with Fura-2, a fluorescent dye which allows the measurement of intracellular free calcium concentration by microspectrofluorimetry, and perfusion of patch clamp pipettes in the whole-cell configuration while monitoring the activity of Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels as an indicator of intracellular Ca2+. We report here that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate serves as a signal that is both necessary and sufficient for receptor activation of Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane in these cells.

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.

Abstract
Hormone-induced Ca2+ mobilization in rat parotid acinar cells is reportedly mediated via an as yet uncharacterized G protein. We have studied the sensitivity to pertussis toxin (PTx) of this signal transduction mechanism. When rats were treated with Ptx (1.3-1.5 micrograms per animal) for 72 h, a 41 kDa membrane protein was ADP-ribosylated. This PTx treatment regimen, also, resulted in a more than 80% block of the ability of the muscarinic agonist carbachol to inhibit beta-adrenergic receptor-stimulated parotid adenylyl cyclase activity. However, cytosolic Ca2+ levels, in response to either carbachol or AIF-4, were comparable in cells prepared from both untreated or PTx-treated rats, when incubated either in the absence or presence of extracellular Ca2+. Further, both the sensitivity of the Ca2+ response to carbachol and the ability of the agonist-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ stores to be refilled by extracellular Ca2+ were unaffected by PTx treatment. Parotid membranes also contained three low-molecular-weight GTP-binding proteins (25, 22 and 18 kDa) which were unaffected by PTx. These results show that there is only one detectable substrate in parotid membranes for a PTx-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation and that hormone-induced Ca2+ mobilization events in parotid acinar cells are not mediated via PTx-sensitive components.

Abstract
The discovery of the second-messenger functions of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol, the products of hormone-stimulated inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, marked a turning point in studies of hormone function. This review focuses on the myo-inositol moiety which is involved in an increasingly complex network of metabolic interconversions, myo-Inositol metabolites identified in eukaryotic cells include at least six glycerophospholipid isomers and some 25 distinct inositol phosphates which differ in the number and distribution of phosphate groups around the inositol ring. This apparent complexity can be simplified by assigning groups of myo-inositol metabolites to distinct functional compartments. For example, the phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase pathway functions to generate inositol phospholipids that are substrates for hormone-sensitive forms of inositol-phospholipid phospholipase C, whilst the newly discovered phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway generates lipids that are resistant to such enzymes and may function directly as novel mitogenic signals. Inositol phosphate metabolism functions to terminate the second-messenger activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, to recycle the latter's myo-inositol moiety and, perhaps, to generate additional signal molecules such as inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, inositol pentakisphosphate and inositol hexakisphosphate. In addition to providing a more complete picture of the pathways of myo-inositol metabolism, recent studies have made rapid progress in understanding the molecular basis underlying hormonal stimulation of inositol-phospholipid-specific phospholipase C and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-mediated Ca2+ mobilisation.

Abstract
Acinar cells are one of the best studied models of exocytotic secretion. A number of different hormones and neurotransmitters interact with specific membrane receptors, and it is commonly held that pancreatic secretagogues stimulate enzyme release via the elevation of either cytosolic free Ca2+ or cellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate. The discovery of the pivotal role played by phospholipid metabolism in the chain of events leading to secretion, together with the introduction of sensitive techniques to monitor cytosolic free Ca2+, has generated a series of studies that have challenged this classical model. Thus, several observations in pancreatic acini as well as other cell types have argued against the notion that a generalized increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ represents a sufficient and necessary stimulus for exocytosis in nonexcitable cells. Furthermore, the demonstration that a single agonist activates multiple transduction pathways has served to refute the schematic view that receptor agonists activate only one second messenger system. The aim of this article is to review the recent advances in understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of signal transduction, with particular emphasis on the inositol lipid pathway, and to integrate this information into a new working model of enzyme secretion from acinar cells.

Abstract
The spatial distribution of intracellular, free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in rat parotid acini was measured by imaging fura-2 fluorescence from individual acinar cells by means of a digital imaging microscope. Upon cholinergic stimulation in a Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer at (37 degrees C), [Ca2+]i increased synchronously at both the basolateral and luminal membranes as well as in all cells of the secretory endpiece, reaching peak [Ca2+]i levels 1 s after stimulation. Atropine addition caused a rapid down-regulation of [Ca2+]i, which, however, never reached prestimulatory levels. When acini were stimulated in a medium containing 5 nM Ca2+, the Ca2+ mobilization arising from internal pools caused an increase in [Ca2+]i predominantly near the basolateral area, where the endoplasmic reticulum is located, and standing Ca2+ gradients were observed for up to 10 s. A mathematical model is developed to simulate the time courses of the Ca2+ profiles through the cytoplasm using estimated values of the Ca2+ diffusion coefficients and the cytosolic Ca2+ buffering capacity. It is concluded that under physiological conditions, the Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for the activation of the basolaterally located K+ channels. Furthermore, Ca2+ influx from the interstitium is responsible for much of the rise in [Ca2+]i near the luminal membranes, where the Cl- channels are supposed to be located.
