Abstract
In addition to the Ca2+ portion freely dissociated in the cytosol, another Ca2+ pool is associated with plasma membranes and intracellular organelle membranes. This Ca2+ portion is of importance for regulation of, among other things, the cell cycle, actin-mediated processes, and cell morphology. In the literature, dihydropyridines have been reported to influence this membrane-associated pool of Ca2+ under certain conditions. The aim of this investigation was to study possible modulations of plasma membrane-associated Ca2+ upon treatment with nifedipine in vitro in a Ca2+-transporting cell, the dentin-forming odontoblast. The membrane-associated portion of Ca2+ in dissected dentinogenically active rat incisor odontoblasts was monitored by fluorescence spectrophotometry using chlortetracycline as a probe. In addition, images of chlortetracycline-Ca2+ binding were obtained by fluorescence microscopy. It was found that membrane-associated Ca2+ decreased by the dihydropyridine nifedipine, whereas this Ca2+ pool was unaffected by the cellular polarization state, which was in contrast to cytosolic free Ca2+ as measured by fura-2. The results show that the odontoblast plasma membrane-associated Ca2+-pool can be modulated by nifedipine, thus being dependent on the conformational state of the L-type Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and norepinephrine, found colocalized in sympathetic neurons innervating blood vessels, exert synergistic responses on vasoconstriction. To examine the signaling mechanisms involved, free of complications associated with mixed receptor populations, we have established a stable Chinese hamster ovary cell line expressing both Y1-NPY and alpha 1b-adrenergic receptors. Occupation of either receptor species, with 100 nM peptide YY (PYY) or 10 microM phenylephrine (PE), respectively, resulted in a rapid increase in the cytoplasmic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) as assessed with Fura-2/AM. The rise due to PYY, but not that due to PE, was abolished by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. Both responses were largely maintained in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, but abolished by prior depletion of intracellular Ca2+ pools with either thapsigargin or 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone. Using cells prelabeled with myo-[3H]inositol, PE promoted a rapid (5 s) rise in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) as analyzed by anion-exchange high pressure liquid chromatography, whereas the response to PYY (first significant at > 15 s post-stimulation) was too slow to play a causative role in Ca2+ mobilization. Combination of PE and PYY resulted in increases in [Ca2+]i which were at best additive, whereas they promoted a clearly synergistic rise in Ins(1,4,5)P3 at both 15 and 60 s. Co-stimulation also resulted in a synergistic activation of both protein kinase C (PKC) and [3H]arachidonic acid release. In either instance PYY alone was without effect. The potentiation of arachidonic acid release was abolished by depletion of cellular PKC following chronic treatment with phorbol esters. It is suggested that the ability of PYY to mobilize Ca2+ in an Ins(1,4,5)P3-independent fashion minimizes the functional importance of the capacity to potentiate PE-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation. Instead the major consequences of the synergistic activation of phospholipase C are mediated via PKC, the other route of the signaling pathway.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that stimulating pituitary GH4C1 cells with thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) evoked a biphasic change in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i): a rapid release of sequestered Ca2+ due to the production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, and Ca2+ entry via both voltage-operated Ca2+ channels and a presently unknown voltage-independent influx pathway. The aim of the present study was to further evaluate to which extent the TRH-evoked changes in [Ca2+]i were dependent on entry of extracellular Ca2+, and which mechanisms participated in regulating this Ca2+ entry. Pretreatment of the cells with 4-bromophenylacylbromide (an inhibitor of phospholipase A2), nordihydroguaiaretic acid (an inhibitor of lipoxygenase), and econazole (an inhibitor of both lipoxygenase and cytochrome P-450 enzymes), attenuated the TRH-evoked increase in [Ca2+]i, suggesting that noncyclooxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid or cytochrome P-450 metabolites may participate in regulating the TRH-evoked entry of extracellular Ca2+. Both nordihydroguaiaretic acid and econazole showed a similar inhibition of the Ca2+ entry, as did SKF 96365, a compound previously shown to inhibit receptor-activated Ca2+ entry. We also showed that arachidonic acid per se increased [Ca2+]i, and acidified the cytosol in GH4C1 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of arachidonic acid was reversed by addition of BSA to the cell suspension. The calcium entry and the activation of the metabolism of arachidonic acid may thus be important components of the TRH-evoked signal-transduction pathway in GH4C1 cells.

Abstract
Stimulating rat thyroid FRTL-5 cells with the purinergic agonist ATP activates both the inositol phosphate signal-transduction pathway and the phospholipase A2 pathway. In the present study we wanted to investigate the possible inter-relationships between these two systems during ATP-induced changes in intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i). Pretreatment of Fura-2 loaded cells with 4-bromophenylacyl, an inhibitor of phospholipase A2, had no effect on the ATP-induced entry of Ca2+ but inhibited the release of sequestered Ca2+. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a lipoxygenase inhibitor, and 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA), an inhibitor of cytochrome P-450 enzymes, attenuated the ATP-evoked transient increase in [Ca2+]i. Furthermore, the capacitative entry of Ca2+ was also attenuated in NDGA- and ETYA-treated cells stimulated with ATP. Similar results were obtained using econazole, an inhibitor of cytochrome P-450 enzymes. However, treatment of the cells with indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, had no effect on the ATP-evoked response in [Ca2+]i. We also showed that stimulation of intact or permeabilized FRTL-5 cells with arachidonic acid released sequestered calcium. This calcium originated, at least in part, from an IP3 sensitive calcium pool. In addition, arachidonic acid rapidly acidified the cytosol. The results suggest that metabolism of arachidonic acid by a non-cyclooxygenase pathway is of importance in supporting agonist-induced calcium fluxes evoked via stimulation of the inositol phosphate pathway in FRTL-5 cells. Furthermore, arachidonic acid per se may modify agonist-induced calcium fluxes in these cells.

Abstract
Thanks to our preoccupation with androgen ablative therapy, no significant progress has been made in combating prostate cancer (PCa) in 50 years. Also, there have been only limited advances in medical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The intent of this essay is to explore the mode of participation of prolactin (Prl) in prostatic physiology in the hope that such knowledge will reveal new avenues through which both BPH and PCa can be opposed-even prevented. An especially novel aspect of this study is the recognition of the presence and androgen- and prolactin-dependent concentration of the tripeptide, thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) in prostatic tissue. It is hypothesized that, whereas TRH is the hypothalamic stimulus of hypophyseal Prl secretion, it may, in the prostate, serve as the mediator of Prl's independent and androgen-dependent controls of the gland's growth and function. Through an overview of these relationships, methods are suggested both for their study and for their adaptation to early detection and prevention of imminent pathogenesis.

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
A comprehensive model of cellular activation and proliferation is developed. The model has arachidonic acid (ARA) produced mainly from PLA2 on both sides of the membrane, and superoxide and other activated oxygen species (AOS) formed from O2 by electrons passing out through membrane NANPH and NADH oxidases, as the immediate stimulants of solute permeability. Both ARA and AOS interact with the various solute channel proteins especially their external thiols and disulfides, to increase influx of metabolic substrates, Na, Ca and O2. PLA2 and NADPH oxidase are turned on by growth factors at their receptors acting through tyrosine kinase phosphorylations of messenger proteins GP and ras p-21, stimulated proteases, and by Ca-calmodulin. The adenylate cyclase system has opposite, deactivating character as it increases efflux of Ca and desensitizes growth factor receptors by phosphorylation to shut down the increased solute permeability. Most cancer types are due to carcinogen binding to cell membrane channel and mitochondrial sites for increased solute influx with excessive AOS production inside the cell from mitochondria and other vesicles. High Ca, Na and AOS stimulate proliferation with extra high levels causing transformation to the autogenic, more embryonic-type cancer cell.

Abstract
The direct effect of arachidonic acid (AA) on the phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin light chain (SMLC) by smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase (SMLCK) was assessed in a purified system. AA inhibited the phosphorylation of SMLC by SMLCK in a dose dependent manner. Increasing the amount of calmodulin (59 nM and 590 nM) did not reverse this inhibition. Linoleic acid and oleic acid also inhibited the phosphorylation. The inhibitory potency of these unsaturated fatty acids paralleled the number of cis double bonds. These results show that SMLCK is directly inhibited by unsaturated fatty acids including AA.

Abstract
We studied the effects of arachidonic acid and its metabolites on intracellular free calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in highly purified bovine luteal cell preparations. Corpora lutea were collected from Holstein heifers between days 10 and 12 of the estrous cycle. The cells were dispersed and small and large cells were separated by unit gravity sedimentation and flow cytometry. The [Ca2+]i was determined by spectrofluorometry in luteal cells loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ probe, Fura-2. Arachidonic acid elicited a dose-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i in both small and large luteal cells, having an effect at concentrations as low as 5 microM; and was maximally effective at 50 microM. Several other fatty acids failed to exert a similar response. Addition of nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) or indomethacin failed to suppress the effects of arachidonic acid. In fact, the presence of both inhibitors resulted in increases of [Ca2+]i, with NDGA exerting a greater stimulation of [Ca2+]i than indomethacin. Prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) as well as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) increased [Ca2+]i in the small luteal cells. These results support the idea that arachidonic acid exerts a direct action in mobilizing [Ca2+]i, in the luteal cells. Furthermore, they demonstrate that the cyclooxygenase (PGF2 alpha and PGE2) and lipoxygenase products of arachidonic acid metabolism also play a role in increasing [Ca2+]i in bovine luteal cells. Since the bovine corpus luteum contains large quantities of arachidonic acid, these findings suggest that this compound may regulate calcium-dependent functions of the corpus luteum, including steroid and peptide hormone production and secretion.

Abstract
We have investigated the involvement of enhanced phosphoinositide metabolism in mediating TRH-induced alteration of electrophysiological events related to prolactin secretion by GH3 cells (a line of pituitary origin). Patch-clamp recording (in the current clamp, whole-cell configuration) showed that a few seconds after TRH application there was a brief period (about 30 s) of membrane hyperpolarization followed by several minutes of increased calcium-dependent action potential frequency. In parallel experiments cells were labeled for 24 h with either [3H]myo-inositol or [3H]arachidonate. Application of TRH resulted in rapid increases in levels of inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol. The time course of elevation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (maximal by 5 s) is compatible with an initial burst of intracellular calcium mobilization associated with a transient phase of TRH-induced prolactin release. Application of TRH was also followed by a rapid but more sustained (several minutes) period of elevated diglyceride accumulation; a time course corresponding to a prolonged period of prolactin release which is dependent on the influx of external calcium. A causal relationship between diglyceride release and increased action potential frequency was demonstrated since local application (via a U-tube apparatus) of either 2 microM phorbol ester (phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) or 60 microM 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol to patch-clamped cells could mimic this aspect of the TRH effect. In contrast, the inactive phorbol ester, 4 alpha-phorbol, was unable to elicit this response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of 8-bromocyclic AMP (8-Br-cAMP) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C activator, on cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in normal rat anterior pituitary cells was examined. [Ca2+]i was monitored directly by the fluorescent indicator fura-2. 8-Br-cAMP as well as PMA elevated [Ca2+]i in a concentration-dependent manner. Forskolin (10 mumol/l), which activates adenylate cyclase, and 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol (10 mumol/l), another activator of protein kinase C, also increased [Ca2+]i. Both the 8-Br-cAMP (2 mmol/l)- and the PMA (100 nmol/l)-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was dependent on the presence of extracellular calcium and could be inhibited by the calcium channel blockers Mg2+ and nifedipine, but not by omega-conotoxin (100 nmol/l). The half-maximally inhibitory concentrations of Mg2+ and nifedipine were about 12 mmol/l and 160 nmol/l, respectively, for the [Ca2+]i response to 8-Br-cAMP (2 mmol/l), and were about 6 mmol/l and 400 nmol/l, respectively, for the PMA (100 nmol/l)-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. The sodium channel blocker tetrodotoxin (5 mumol/l) or PMA (100 nmol/l) on [Ca2+]i. After pretreatment for 3 min with PMA (100 nmol/l), the subsequent K+ (100 mmol/l)- or arachidonic acid (3 mumol/l)-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was decreased by about 50%. By contrast, pretreatment (3 min) with 8-Br-cAMP (2-10 mmol/l) markedly enhanced the subsequent [Ca2+]i response to K+ (100 mmol/l), and left the effect of arachidonic acid (3 mumol/l) on [Ca2+]i unimpaired.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to further characterize the inhibition by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and beta-endorphin release from rat anterior pituitary fragments in vitro. Peptide hormone release was induced by vasopressin, which initiates secretion via cell surface receptors, or by secretagogues which can mimic various post-receptor mechanisms and the effect of PGE2 was examined. Concentration-response curves of the effect of vasopressin on the release of beta-endorphin-like (beta-End-IR) and ACTH-like immunoreactivity (ACTH-IR) were constructed in the absence or presence of a fixed concentration of PGE2. The concentration-response curve of vasopressin was shifted to the right about 8-fold by PGE2 (1 mumol/l) without altering the maximum effect. PGE2 (60 nmol/l-1 mumol/l) markedly reduced beta-End-IR release induced by 8-bromoadenosine-3',5'-cyclic-monophosphate (8Br-cAMP) (1 mmol/l). Omission of Ca2+ from the incubation medium did not prevent PGE2-induced inhibition of 8Br-cAMP-evoked secretion. 4 beta-Phorbol, 12 beta-myristate, 13 alpha-acetate (PMA) stimulated beta-End-IR and ACTH-IR release in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect was not blocked by indometacin or eicosatetraynoic acid. PG E2 (greater than 100 nmol/l) reduced PMA (100 nmol/l)-elicited secretion by about 50%. PG E2 (1 mumol/l) almost halved beta-End-IR release caused by K+ (30 mmol/l). After pre-incubation in Ca2+-free medium, re-introduction of Ca2+ (1.3 mmol/l) elicited beta-End-IR release. This response was abolished by PG E2 (1 mumol/l). The addition of Ba2+ (10 mmol/l) to a Ca2+-free medium markedly enhanced beta-End-IR release.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
