Abstract
Fluoride is an essential chemical found in dental preparations, pesticides and drinking water. Excessive fluoride exposure is related to toxicological and neurological disruption. Zebrafish are used in translational approaches to understand neurotoxicity in both biomedical and environmental areas. However, there is no complete knowledge about the cumulative effects of fluoride on neurotransmission systems. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate whether prolonged exposure to sodium fluoride (NaF) alters cholinergic and glutamatergic systems and oxidative stress homeostasis in the zebrafish brain. Adult zebrafish were used, divided into four experimental groups, one control group and three groups exposed to NaF at 30, 50 and 100 mg.L-1 for a period of 30 days. After NaF at 30 mg.L-1 exposure, there were significant decreases in acetylcholinesterase (29.8%) and glutamate uptake (39.3%). Furthermore, thiobarbituric acid-reactive species were decreased at NaF 50 mg.L-1 (32.7%), while the group treated with NaF at 30 mg.L-1 showed an increase in dichlorodihydrofluorescein oxidation (41.4%). NaF at 30 mg.L-1 decreased both superoxide dismutase (55.3%) and catalase activities (26.1%). The inhibitory effect observed on cholinergic and glutamatergic signalling mechanisms could contribute to the neurodegenerative events promoted by NaF in the zebrafish brain.

Abstract
Lung surfactant (LS) is a lipid-rich material lining the inside of the lungs. It reduces surface tension at the liquid/air interface and thus, it confers protection of the alveoli from collapsing. The surface-active component of LS is dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine, while anionic phospholipids such as phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) and primarily phosphatidylglycerol are involved in the stabilization of the LS monolayer. The exact role of PtdIns in this system is not well-understood; however, PtdIns levels change dramatically during the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) evolution. In this report we present evidence of a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) activity in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, which may regulate PtdIns levels. Characterization of this extracellular activity showed specificity for PtdIns and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, sharing the typical substrate concentration-, pH-, and calcium-dependencies with mammalian PI-PLCs. Fractionation of BAL fluid showed that PI-PLC did not co-fractionate with large surfactant aggregates, but it was found mainly in the soluble fraction. Importantly, analysis of BAL samples from control subjects and from patients with ARDS showed that the PI-PLC specific activity was decreased by 4-fold in ARDS samples concurrently with the increase in BAL PtdIns levels. Thus, we have identified for the first time an extracellular PI-PLC enzyme activity that may be acutely involved in the regulation of PtdIns levels in LS.

Abstract
The highly efficient formation of phosphatidic acid from exogenous 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol (SAG) in rat brain synaptic nerve endings (synaptosomes) from cerebral cortex and hippocampus is reported. Phosphatidic acid synthesized from SAG or 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol (DPG) was 17.5 or 2.5 times higher, respectively, than from endogenous synaptosomal diacylglycerides. Insulin increased diacylglycerol kinase (DAGK) action on endogenous substrate in synaptic terminals from hippocampus and cerebral cortex by 199 and 97%, respectively. Insulin preferentially increased SAG phosphorylation from hippocampal membranes. In CC synaptosomes insulin increased phosphatidic acid (PA) synthesis from SAG by 100% with respect to controls. Genistein (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) inhibited this stimulatory insulin effect. Okadaic acid or cyclosporine, used as Ser/Threo protein phosphatase inhibitors, failed to increase insulin effect on PA formation. GTP gamma S and particularly NaF were potent stimulators of PA formation from polyunsaturated diacylglycerol but failed to increase this phosphorylation when added after 5 min of insulin exposure. GTP gamma S and NaF increased phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate (PIP2) labeling with respect to controls when SAG was present. On the contrary, they decreased polyphosphoinositide labeling with respect to controls in the presence of DPG. Our results indicate that a DAGK type 3 (DAGKepsilon) which preferentially, but not selectively, utilizes 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol and which could be associated with polyphosphoinositide resynthesis, participates in synaptic insulin signaling. GTP gamma S and NaF appear to be G protein activators related to insulin and the insulin receptor, both affecting the signaling mechanism that augments phosphatidic acid formation.

Abstract
Fluoride, which is used commonly as a pharmacological tool to activate phosphoinositide-phospholipase C coupled to the heterotrymeric Gq/11 proteins, inhibited the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) to polyphosphoinositides (PtdIns4P and PtdIns4,5P2) in membranes from rat brain cortex. Fluoride enhanced basal production of 3H-inositol phosphates in membranes prepared from brain cortical slices that had been prelabeled with [3H]inositol, but inhibited the stimulation elicited by carbachol in the presence of GTPgammaS. However in both cases fluoride depleted [3H]PtdIns4P content by 95%. The inhibitory effects of fluoride on the release of 3H-inositol phosphates in slices were not apparent in a pulse [3H]inositol-labeling strategy, but became dramatic in a continuous labeling protocol, particularly at long incubation times. Prelabeling slices with [3H]inositol in the presence of fluoride precluded polyphosphoinositide labeling, and eliminated phospholipase C responsiveness to carbachol under normal or depolarizing conditions, and to the calcium ionophore ionomycin. The lack of response of 3H-polyphosphoinositide-depleted slices to phospholipase C stimuli was not due to fluoride poisoning, unaccessibility of the [3H]inositol label to phospholipase C or desensitization of Gq/11, as the effect of carbachol and GTPgammaS was restored, in the presence of ATP, in membranes prepared from slices that had been labeled in the presence of fluoride. In conclusion, our data show that fluoride, at a concentration similar to that used to stimulate directly Gq/11-coupled phospholipase C, effectively blocks the synthesis of phospholipase C substrates from PtdIns.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of modifying the fatty acid composition of membranes on cell growth and phosphoinositide specific phospholipase C (PLC) activity in HT-29 colon cancer cells. Cells were seeded at a density of 12 x 10(3) cells/cm2 and supplemented with 30 microM of either 18:0, 18:2 (n6) or 18:3 (n3) complexed to bovine serum albumin (BSA) in DMEM medium. Cell growth was followed for 12 days. The 18:0 supplemented cells (control) reached maximum growth at day nine which was greater than either 18:2 (n6) or 18:3 (n3) supplemented cells. There was no difference between the latter two groups in their growth. To investigate the fatty acid incorporation of the supplemented fatty acid and how they may influence composition in the cell membrane, we examined the fatty acid composition of each phospholipid (PL) species. Both phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) were significantly influenced by the type of fatty acid supplemented. Supplementation with 18:0 resulted in HT-29 cell membranes having more monounsaturated fatty acids than the cells grown in the other fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) supplementation (both 18:2 and 18:3) resulted in the enrichment of PUFA in the PL fractions. Cells supplemented with 18:3 (n3) had the highest unsaturation index in membrane PE as compared to the other phospholipid species. PLC activity of the membranes was measured using PIP2 as a substrate in the presence of 15 micrograms alamethicin and 42 microM free calcium. The contribution of G protein to the activity of the enzyme was assessed using GTP gamma(S). PLC activity of HT-29 cells was 16% higher in the presence of GTP gamma(S) response. GTP gamma(S)-activated PLC activity of 18:3 (n3) supplemented cells was 81% of those supplemented with either 18:0 or 18:2 (n6) cells. It is concluded that the decrease in cell proliferation with supplementation with 18:3 (n3) may be mediated through its inhibitory effect on PLC, which provides the second messengers for protein kinase C (PKC) activation. PLC may be influenced by an increased unsaturation index of the PE fraction of the HT-29 tumor cell membranes.

Abstract
The effects of L-glutamate, acetylcholine, and serotonin (5HT) were examined on generation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], in membrane preparations of the cestode Hymenolepis diminuta. Only L-glutamate and acetylcholine stimulated a significant elevation in Ins(1,4,5)P3. The response to L-glutamate was stereospecific; D-glutamate or L-aspartate were not as potent. A role for G-protein(s) was supported by the observations that sodium fluoride stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation, and the L-glutamate response was potentiated by GTP and GTP-S and was suppressed by GDPS. However, studies with pertussis and cholera toxins indicated that the putative G-protein(s) was not pertussis or cholera toxin sensitive. The pharmacological profile of the L-glutamate response was examined partially. Trans-ACPD was a very effective agonist at 10(-5)M. While 10(-3)M L-glutamate, NMDA, and AMPA significantly elevated Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels, quisqualate and kainate did not. The elevation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels by L-glutamate and NMDA was antagonized by the specific glutamatergic antagonists AP-5, AP-7, CNQX, and CPP. While the response to ACPD was antagonized by AP5, CPP and CPG, CNQX was without effect. Collectively, the data support the hypothesis that in the cestode H. diminuta, L-glutamate activation of a metabotropic (ACPD) and/or ionotropic-like AMPA/NMDA receptor subtypes proceeds via a G protein(s) to enhance phospholipase C activity, ultimately resulting in the elevation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels in the tissues.

Abstract
Demonstration of guanine-nucleotide-dependent neurotransmitter stimulation of phosphoinositide breakdown in brain membranes has generally required the presence of the detergent, deoxycholate (DOC), in the assay medium. In the present study, by using mouse brain cortical membranes labelled with [3H]inositol in the presence of CMP through the reverse PtdIns synthase reaction, we have been able to show guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S])-dependent carbachol (CCh) stimulation of the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates in the absence of DOC and have studied how the detergent affects the response. The results of our study indicate that DOC affects the muscarinic receptor-G-protein-phosphoinositidase C (PIC) transduction system in several ways. First, it enhances agonist-induced PIC activity towards [3H]PtdInsP and [3H]PtdInsP2 and, secondly, it decreases the potency for GTP[S] stimulation of PIC, thus enhancing the agonist-induced leftward shift of the dose-response curve for GTP[S]. Additionally, DOC appears to increase the activity of the enzymes of the phosphoinositide cycle, PtdIns 4-kinase, Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and Ins(1,4)P2 1-phosphatase, thus altering the proportion of phosphoinositide substrates and inositol phosphate products. These observations advise caution in drawing conclusions about PIC substrate specificity and the potency of both guanine nucleotides and agonists from experiments performed in membranes in the presence of DOC or related bile salts.

Abstract
Acute pretreatment (30 min) of primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells with TPA (10 nM) resulted in a decrease in carbachol-and glutamate-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, but not in basal levels of PI hydrolysis. To investigate the mechanism of TPA action, phospholipase C was assayed in membranes prepared from cerebellar granule cells acutely treated with TPA. TPA had no effect on basal, GTP gamma S-, NaF-, and calcium-stimulated phospholipase C when compared with membranes prepared from vehicle-treated cells. The effects of pulsing with TPA (30-min pulse, 10 nM) on agonist-stimulated PI hydrolysis were studied 1, 3, and 5 or 6 d after TPA treatment. TPA treatment results in a statistically significant decrease in glutamate-stimulated PI hydrolysis, and a slight reduction of carbachol-stimulated PI hydrolysis when compared to temporally matched controls. Measurements in membranes prepared from TPA-treated vs control cells 1, 3, and 5 d after treatment showed that calcium- and NaF-stimulated phospholipase C activity was significantly decreased at all days tested, whereas GTP gamma S-stimulated phospholipase C activity was significantly decreased only at d 3. These data demonstrate differences in the acute vs long-term effects of TPA treatment on agonist-stimulated PH hydrolysis, and suggest that the acute effects may be mediated at the level of the receptor, whereas long-term effects of TPA on PI hydrolysis may be mediated by deficits in effector function.

Abstract
The effect of Alzheimer's disease (AD) on the activity of the phosphoinositide second messenger system was studied by measuring the hydrolysis of [3H]phosphatidylinositol (PI) by membranes from postmortem human prefrontal cortex. The activity of phospholipase C was similar in AD and control tissue. Activation with GTP gamma S and with carbachol demonstrated less [3H]PI hydrolysis in AD than control membranes. The concentration of Gq/11, the G-proteins most likely functional in phosphoinositide metabolism, was unchanged in AD compared with controls, indicating that function of the receptor-G-protein complex rather than the G-protein concentration was the site of the impairment in AD. These results indicate that postsynaptic muscarinic receptor responses are impaired in AD, a finding that may explain, in part, the limited therapeutic responses achieved by administration of cholinomimetics to patients with AD. Also, this assay provides a means to identify cholinomimetics that are most effective in activating muscarinic receptor-coupled phosphoinositide hydrolysis in human brain, agents which should have the greatest potential for providing therapeutic responses in AD.

Abstract
In order to investigate a possible G-protein-mediated activation of phospholipase D (PLD) and its relationship to the activation of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), we measured the effects of aluminium fluoride and carbachol on choline release, the PLD-specific transphosphatidylation reaction (generation of phosphatidylpropanol) and the formation of inositol phosphates in rat hippocampal slices. Aluminium fluoride markedly enhanced the formation of choline and phosphatidylpropanol but failed to increase the formation of inositol phosphates. In contrast, the muscarinic agonist carbachol strongly stimulated PI-PLC but failed to activate PLD. We conclude that PLD in hippocampal slices is activated by a G-protein independently of phosphoinositide hydrolysis.

Abstract
HIT-T15 cells labeled with myo-[3H] inositol were permeabilized by electroporation and subsequently stimulated with various glycolytic intermediates in the presence of 20 mM LiCl in a buffer mimicking cytosolic ionic composition. Of the various glycolytic intermediates tested, only D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3-P) stimulated the formation of labeled inositol phosphates. The half-maximal response to G3-P occurred at a concentration of 0.75 mM. Formation of inositol phosphates in electroporated cells was also observed in response to GTP. G3-P further potentiated the formation of inositol phosphates in response to GTP, however, the interaction between G3-P and GTP was additive rather than synergistic, indicating that G3-P stimulates phosphoinositide hydrolysis in a manner different than the receptor mediated GTP-dependent activation of phospholipase C. The potentiation of the GTP response by G3-P did not appear to involve inhibition of the GTPase activity of a phosphoinositide-specific G protein, since G3-P also potentiated the formation of inositol phosphates in response to GTP-gamma-S or NaF in a nearly additive manner.

Abstract
The effect of aging on receptor- and G-protein-activated and on depolarization-induced phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis was examined in mechanically dissociated neurons from female NMRI mice. Additionally, age-dependent changes in Ca2+ homeostasis, i.e. changes in basal intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) and in depolarization-induced rise in [Ca2+]i were investigated. No age-related differences in PI hydrolysis were found after stimulation of muscarinic cholinergic, alpha 1, serotonin and quisqualate receptors coupled to the phosphoinositide-phospholipase C (PI-PLC) system. PI hydrolysis following stimulation with AMPA ((RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid) revealed a significantly increased response in aged animals. Activation of G-proteins with NaF also induced a higher inositol monophosphate (InsP1) accumulation in aged mice. Moreover, InsP1 accumulation due to PLC activation by increased [Ca2+]i after depolarization with KCl was significantly increased in neurons from aged animals. Investigations about age-related changes in Ca2+ homeostasis revealed lower basal [Ca2+]i and lower rise in [Ca2+]i after depolarization with KCl. The data indicate that receptor-mediated and depolarization-induced PI hydrolysis are differentially affected by aging. Decreased availability of [Ca2+]i in aged animals may enhance the sensitivity of Ca(2+)-activated mechanisms. This may explain increased KCl- and AMPA-induced InsP1 accumulation whereas receptor-coupled PLC activation is less affected.

Abstract
Age-related inositol phosphate turnover in the rat central nervous system was investigated. Higher phospholipase-C activity and drastically higher (almost 2.5-fold) inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate concentration in the corpus striatum (caudate-putamen) of extremely old (approximately 40 months) female Wistar rats in comparison to the young adult (approximately 3.5 months) rats were observed. Dopamine seems to slightly inhibit total inositol phosphate formation and this effect was antagonized by (-)-sulpiride.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide signal transduction pathway mediates important processes in intestinal physiology, yet the key enzyme, phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), is not well-characterized in the colon. PI-PLC activity was examined in rat colonic membranes using exogenous [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) as substrate, and beta-glycerophosphate to suppress degradation of substrate or product. The activity of membrane PI-PLC increased 6-fold with the addition of alamethicin, and a further 2-3-fold enhancement was observed with 10 microM guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), suggesting the involvement of G-protein(s). The effect of GTP[S] appeared to be specific, as up to 100 microM adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]-triphosphate failed to stimulate PI-PLC activity, and guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate inhibited activity. The response of membrane PI-PLC to Ca2+ was biphasic, while > 0.5 mM Mg2+ was inhibitory with or without GTP[S]. Comparable total PI-PLC activities and responses to GTP[S] and Ca2+ were observed in purified brush-border and basolateral membranes. Western immunoblots probed with monoclonal antibodies to PLC isoenzymes PLC-beta 1, -gamma 1 and -delta 1 demonstrated that these antipodal plasma membranes contain predominantly the PLC-delta 1 isoform, with small amounts of PLC-gamma 1 present but no detectable PLC-beta 1. PLC-gamma 1 was the major isoform detected in cytosol.

Abstract
To examine the possibility that NaF enhances phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PIC) activity in neural tissues by a mechanism independent of a guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gp), we have evaluated the contribution of Gp activation to NaF-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in human SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells. Addition of NaF to intact cells resulted in an increase in the release of inositol phosphates (450% of control values; EC50 of approximately 8 mM). Inclusion of U-73122, an aminosteroid inhibitor of guanine nucleotide-regulated PIC activity in these cells, resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of NaF-stimulated inositol lipid hydrolysis (IC50 of approximately 3.5 microM). When added to digitonin-permeabilized cells, NaF or guanosine-5'-O-thiotriphosphate (GTP gamma S) resulted in a three- and sevenfold enhancement, respectively, of inositol phosphate release. In the combined presence of optimal concentrations of NaF and GTP gamma S, inositol phosphate release was less than additive, indicative of a common site of action. Inclusion of 2-5 mM concentrations of guanosine-5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (GDP beta S) fully blocked phosphoinositide hydrolysis elicited by GTP gamma S, whereas that induced by NaF was partially inhibited (65%). However, preincubation of the cells with GDP beta S resulted in a greater reduction in the ability of NaF to stimulate inositol phosphate release (87% inhibition). Both GTP gamma S and NaF-stimulated inositol phosphate release were inhibited by inclusion of 10 microM U-73122 (54-71%). The presence of either NaF or GTP gamma S also resulted in a marked lowering of the Ca2+ requirement for activation of PIC in permeabilized cells. These results indicate that in SK-N-SH cells, little evidence exists for direct stimulation of PIC by NaF and that the majority of inositol phosphate release that occurs in the presence of NaF can be attributed to activation of Gp.

Abstract
A number of investigators have studied the effect of metabolic inhibitors on the facility of aqueous outflow from the enucleated eye perfused eye at "room temperature". Some inhibitors such as iodoacetate and iodoacetamide increased the facility, others such as p-chloromercuri-benzoate decreased it. Most however, including sodium fluoride, were reported to have had no effect. We have found that 10 mM sodium fluoride had a very small effect on facility of aqueous outflow at room temperature (22 degrees C), but reduced the facility as much as 50% (average 30%) at 35 degrees C. The magnitude of the sodium fluoride effect did not appear to be dependent on calcium levels in the medium, but the presence of Ca2+ significantly prolonged its duration. Iodoacetamide and iodoacetate both increased facility at 35 degrees C in a manner similar to previous findings at room temperature except that at 8-10 mM, iodoacetate caused a 55% decrease; under these conditions, there was considerable release of tissue debris into the anterior chamber which probably blocked the TM. A number of other agents, such as 2,4-dinitrophenol, KCN, and 2-deoxyglucose were studied, but none produced any marked effect on facility. These results emphasize that temperature may profoundly modify the effect of metabolically active agents. The mechanism of the fluoride effect has not been determined but it is consistent with the action of F on the G protein associated with phospholipase C.

Abstract
Polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C activity was present in plasma membranes isolated from different tissues of several higher plants. Phospholipase C activities against added phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) were further characterized in plasma membrane fractions isolated from shoots and roots of dark-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Drabant) seedlings. In right-side-out (70-80% apoplastic side out) plasma membrane vesicles, the activities were increased 3 to 5 times upon addition of 0.01 to 0.025% (w/v) sodium deoxycholate, whereas in fractions enriched in inside-out (70-80% cytoplasmic side out) vesicles, the activities were only slightly increased by detergent. Furthermore, the activities of inside-out vesicles in the absence of detergent were very close to those of right-side-out vesicles in the presence of optimal detergent concentration. This verifies the general assumption that polyphosphoinositide phospholipase C activity is located at the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. PIP and PIP(2) phospholipase C was dependent on Ca(2+) with maximum activity at 10 to 100 mum free Ca(2+) and half-maximal activation at 0.1 to 1 mum free Ca(2+). In the presence of 10 mum Ca(2+), 1 to 2 mm MgCl(2) or MgSO(4) further stimulated the enzyme activity. The other divalent chloride salts tested (1.5 mm Ba(2+), Co(2+), Cu(2+), Mn(2+), Ni(2+), and Zn(2+)) inhibited the enzyme activity. The stimulatory effect by Mg(2+) was observed also when 35 mm NaCl was included. Thus, the PIP and PIP(2) phospholipase C exhibited maximum in vitro activity at physiologically relevant ion concentrations. The plant plasma membrane also possessed a phospholipase C activity against phosphatidylinositol that was 40 times lower than that observed with PIP or PIP(2) as substrate. The phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C activity was dependent on Ca(2+), with maximum activity at 1 mm CaCl(2), and could not be further stimulated by Mg(2+).

Abstract
Guanine nucleotide-, neurotransmitter-, and fluoride-stimulated accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates ([3H]InsPs) was measured in [3H]inositol-labeled synaptoneurosomes from cerebral cortex of immature (7-day-old) and adult rats, in order to clarify the role of GTP-binding proteins (G-proteins) in modulating phosphoinositide (PtdIns) metabolism during brain development. GTP(S) [Guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate] time- and concentration-dependently stimulated PtdIns hydrolysis. Its effect was potentiated by full (carbachol, metacholine) and partial (oxotremorine) cholinergic agonists through activation of muscarinic receptors. The presence of deoxycholate was required to demonstrate agonist potentiation of the guanine nucleotide effect. The response to GTP(S) was higher in adult than in immature rats, while the effect of cholinergic agonists was similar at the two ages examined. At both ages, histamine potentiated the effect of GTP(S), while norepinephrine was ineffective. At both ages, guanosine 5'-O-(2-thio)diphosphate [GDP(S)] and pertussis toxin significantly decreased GTP(S)-induced [3H]InsPs formation. The phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), on the other hand, did not inhibit the guanine nucleotide response in synaptoneurosomes from immature rats. NaF mimicked the action of GTP(S) in stimulating PtdIns hydrolysis. Its effect was not affected by carbachol and was highly synergistic with that of AlCl3, according to the concept that fluoroaluminate (AlF4-) is the active stimulatory species. No quantitative differences were found in the response to these salts between immature and adult animals. These results provide evidence that, in both the immature and adult rat brain, neuroreceptor activation is coupled to PtdIns hydrolysis through modulatory G-proteins.

Abstract
The intracellular inositol pathway is an important route for cell activation and relies on the stimulation of membrane-bound phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC). Previously we have shown abnormalities of inositol metabolism in mononuclear cells (MNL) in atopic dermatitis (AD) using an indirect method. We now describe a direct method of measuring PLC activity in membrane and cytosol preparations of MNL in AD. We compare PLC activity in AD with that in normal controls and examine the effect of substrate concentration and nucleotide stimulation on the system. Our findings show increased membrane-bound PLC activity in AD compared with normal controls. Non-specific stimulation of AD PLC activity by nucleotides suggests that the enzyme of atopics is more sensitive to substrate-driven activity than that of non-atopics.

Abstract
A possible role for altered signal transduction mechanisms in impaired alpha 1-adrenergic-stimulated secretory function during aging was investigated in parotid cells prepared from adult (6 mo) and old (24 mo) rats. Compared with adults, epinephrine-stimulated 45Ca2+ efflux and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] production were reduced 31 and 36% in cells of old rats, respectively. There was a highly significant correlation between 45Ca2+ efflux and Ins(1,4,5)P3 production. In saponin-permeabilized cells, no significant differences in Ins(1,4,5)P3-stimulated 45Ca2+ efflux in adult and old preparations were observed. When G proteins were stimulated by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) or NaF, no age differences in Ins(1,4,5)P3 production were detected. Stimulation of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) by CaCl2 in adult and old cells was also comparable. Moreover, no differences in immunolabeled common alpha (GTP binding site), Gi alpha, PLC-gamma, or PLC-delta could be detected in either cytosol or membranes of adult and old preparations. In the absence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate [Gpp(NH)p], no age-related changes in epinephrine competition for [3H]prazosin binding sites were observed. Approximately 30% of the agonist binding sites existed in a high-affinity form at both ages. Gpp(NH)p caused large rightward shifts of epinephrine displacement curves in adult membranes (converting all binding sites to the low-affinity form), but not old. Moreover, epinephrine was much more effective in stimulating G protein low-Km GTPase in parotid membranes from adult than old rats. These data suggest that age-related impairments in alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness are mediated, at least in part, by the functional alterations in the coupling of G proteins with alpha 1-adrenergic receptors.

Abstract
Mammalian cells do not live as isolated organisms, but are instead organized into complex, highly specialized tissue organs composed of a homogeneous or a mixed cell population. In order to maintain tissue homeostasis in physiological and pathophysiological conditions, intercellular communication is an absolute requirement. This review will summarize our current knowledge as to how an extracellular signal is transduced via a specific receptor to the interior of the cell and how this signal will induce special cell functions. Attention will be paid to the major signal transduction pathways known to be active in keratinocytes, namely the adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase, tyrosine kinase, and phospholipase C systems. Finally, examples will be given of how interactions between these signal transduction pathways can take place and how 'signal cross-talk' might regulate keratinocyte function.

Abstract
NaF caused a dose-dependent rise in miniature end-plate potential (MEPP) frequency at the frog neuromuscular junction. The effects on MEPP frequency of both NaF and the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) were rapidly reversed by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor polymyxin B (2 microM). Theophylline augmented the response of MEPP frequency to TPA. It is concluded that the effect of fluoride on MEPP frequency may be through activation of phospholipase C and consequent PKC stimulation, and that the synergistic interaction of NaF and theophylline is consistent with such a mode of action.

Abstract
Synaptoneurosomes obtained from the cortex of rat brain prelabeled with [14C]arachidonic acid [( 14C]AA) were used as a source of substrate and enzyme in studies on the regulation of AA release. A significant amount of AA is liberated in the presence of 2 mM EGTA, independently of Ca2+, primarily from phosphatidic acid and polyphosphoinositides (poly-PI). Quinacrine, an inhibitor of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), suppressed AA release by about 60% and neomycin, a putative inhibitor of phospholipase C (PLC), reduced AA release by about 30%. An additive effect was exhibited when both inhibitors were given together. Ca2+ activated AA release. The level of Ca2+ present in the synaptoneurosomal preparation (endogenous level) and 5 microM CaCl2 enhance AA liberation by approximately 25%, whereas 2 mM CaCl2 resulted in a 50% increase in AA release relative to EGTA. The source for Ca(2+)-dependent AA release is predominantly phosphatidylinositol (PI); however, a small pool may also be liberated from neutral lipids. Carbachol, an agonist of the cholinergic receptor, stimulated Ca(2+)-dependent AA release by about 17%. Bradykinin enhanced the effect of carbachol by about 10-15%. This agonist-mediated AA release occurs specifically from phosphoinositides (PI + poly-PI). Quinacrine almost completely suppresses calcium-and carbachol-mediated AA release. Neomycin inhibits this process by about 30% and totally suppresses the effect of bradykinin. Our results indicate that both phospholipases PLA2 and PLC with subsequent action of DAG lipase are responsible for Ca(2+)-independent AA release. Ca(2+)-dependent and carbachol-mediated AA liberation occurs mainly as the result of PLA2 action. A small pool of AA is probably also released by PLC, which seems to be exclusively responsible for the effect of bradykinin.

Abstract
Rat hippocampal slices were exposed briefly (12-15 min) to AlF4- (10 mmol/l NaF, 10 mumol/l AlCl3). The effect on synaptic transmission in area CAl was measured using extracellular electrodes placed in the stratum pyramidale and stratum radiatum. During fluoride exposure, both spike and EPSP amplitude fell to very low levels. Upon washout, spike amplitude recovered beyond control values, and in half of the preparations a prolonged enhancement of spike amplitude (greater than 2 h) occurred. Similar modulation of EPSP slope indicated that these charges were primarily synaptic. If Al3+ was omitted from the F(-)-containing saline, enhancement of spike amplitude, when observed, was brief (20-30 min) and no enhancement of EPSP slope was seen. Omission of Ca2+ from the AlF(4-)-containing saline also abolished any long-lasting enhancement of synaptic transmission, though population spike amplitude in most slices showed a brief (20-30 min) stimulatory response. In preparations in which LTP had previously been saturated, synaptic transmission was not enhanced by exposure to AlF4-. It is concluded that NaF/ACl3 exposure induces an LTP-like process by G-protein activation, which involves recruitment of processes involved in LTP, possibly including an enhancement of Ca(2+)-influx.

Abstract
The activity of a phospholipase C which hydrolyses exogenous phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [( 3H]PtdIns(4,5)P2) in membranes prepared from frozen postmortem human brain and rat brain was investigated. Enzyme characteristics were essentially similar in membranes prepared from frozen postmortem brain and fresh or frozen rat brain. The [3H]PtdIns(4,5)P2 solubilization and assay procedure employed resulted in an efficient availability of the substrate for the enzyme. The non-hydrolysable guanosine triphosphate analogue guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]diphosphate (Gpp[NH]p) stimulated hydrolysis rapidly with a half maximum activity of approximately 25 microM. This stimulation was not specific for guanine nucleotides as ATP, imidodiphosphate and pyrophosphate also caused enzyme activation. However these activation effects could be distinguished by the polyanion spermine. The non-hydrolysable guanine dinucleotide analogue guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate acted as a partial agonist thereby inhibiting the stimulatory effect of Gpp[NH]p. Gpp[NH]p-stimulated enzyme activity showed a maximum response in the presence of 1 mM deoxycholate and displayed a pH optima in the range 7.0-7.5. PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis was observed in the absence of added calcium, but hydrolytic cleavage was inhibited in the presence of divalent ion chelators. Magnesium inhibited PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis in a concentration-dependent manner. Elucidation of these aspects of the phosphatidylinositol cycle in normal human postmortem brain will permit comparative studies in CNS disease states.

Abstract
Many hormones, growth factors, and neurotransmitters stimulate their target cells by promoting the hydrolysis of plasma-membrane phosphoinositides to form the two second messengers, diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. In such cells, ligand-receptor interaction stimulates specific phospholipases that are activated by guanyl nucleotide regulatory G proteins or tyrosine phosphorylation. In many cells, the initial rise in cytoplasmic calcium due to Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced mobilization of calcium from agonist-sensitive stores is followed by a sustained phase of cytoplasmic calcium elevation that maintains the target-cell response, and is dependent on influx of extracellular calcium. Numerous inositol phosphates are formed during metabolism of the calcium-mobilizing messenger, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], to lower and higher phosphorylated derivatives. The cloning of several phospholipase-C isozymes, as well as the Ins(1,4,5)P3-5 kinase and the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor, have clarified several aspects of the diversity and complexity of the phosphoinositide-calcium signaling system. In addition to their well-established roles in hormonal activation of cellular responses such as secretion and contraction, phospholipids and their hydrolysis products have been increasingly implicated in the actions of growth factors and oncogenes on cellular growth and proliferation.

The phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated hydrolysis of membrane phosphoinositides is an important signal transduction pathway coupled to the cell-surface receptors for several hormones and growth factors. In addition, PLC activity can be modulated by changes in intracellular calcium and activation of GTP binding proteins. In this report, differential activation of PLC in the human keratinocyte cell line SCC-12F was studied as judged by specific patterns of inositol phosphate formation. Several hormones and growth factors previously shown to stimulate PLC in a variety of cell types were screened for activity in SCC-12F cells. Only bradykinin was active, stimulating the PLC-dependent generation of inositol (1,4,5) triphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3). Ins(1,4,5)P3 was rapidly metabolized to inositol(1,4)biphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2) and inositol(1,3,4,5)tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4), and subsequently degraded to inositol monophosphates. The response elicited by bradykinin was concentration dependent (EC50 value of 50 nM), suggesting involvement of a specific bradykinin receptor. Treatment of these cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 appeared to result in the direct formation of Ins(1,4)P2 without Ins(1,4,5)P3 as precursor. Treatment of the cells with AIF4-, a putative activator of GTP binding proteins, resulted in the generation of inositol monophosphates as the major metabolites in the absence of detectable Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation. Taken together, these observations suggest that the PLC complex present in SCC-12F cells can be differentially activated to yield either Ins(1,4,5)P3, Ins(1,4)P2, or InsP. The observed effects may be due to a direct PLC-dependent hydrolysis of the appropriate membrane phosphoinositide.

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

Abstract
We have reported recently that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) stimulated phosphoinositide metabolism in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells and that PGE2 and ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+, K(+)-ATPase, synergistically induced a gradual secretion of catecholamines from the cells. Here we examined the involvement of a GTP-binding protein(s) in PGE receptor-induced responses by using NaF. In the presence of Ca2+ in the medium, NaF stimulated the formation of all three inositol phosphates, i.e., inositol monophosphate, bisphosphate, and trisphosphate, linearly over 30 min in a dose-dependent manner (15-30 mM). This effect on phosphoinositide metabolism was accompanied by an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+. NaF also induced catecholamine release from chromaffin cells, and the dependency of stimulation of the release on NaF concentration was well correlated with those of NaF-enhanced inositol phosphate formation and increase in cytosolic free Ca2+. Although the effect of NaF on PGE2-induced catecholamine release in the presence of ouabain was additive at concentrations below 20 mM, there was no additive effect at 25 mM NaF. Furthermore, the time course of catecholamine release stimulated by 20 mM NaF in the presence of ouabain was quite similar to that by 1 microM PGE2, and both stimulations were markedly inhibited by amiloride, with half-maximal inhibition at 10 microM. Pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin did not prevent, but rather enhanced, PGE2-induced catecholamine release over the range of concentrations examined. These results demonstrate that NaF mimics the effect of PGE2 on catecholamine release from chromaffin cells and suggest that PGE2-evoked catecholamine release may be mediated by the stimulation of phosphoinositide metabolism through a putative GTP-binding protein insensitive to pertussis toxin.

Abstract
The effects of sodium fluoride upon basal and agonist-stimulated inositol phospholipid breakdown have been investigated in rat brain miniprisms. NaF concentration dependently increased basal inositol phospholipid breakdown, with a maximum effect being seen at 20 mM. NaF reduced the inositol phospholipid breakdown responses to stimulation by carbachol, noradrenaline, serotonin and quisqualate, but not to the stimulation produced by raising the assay [K+] from 6 to 18 mM. More detailed study demonstrated NaF to have a 'levelling' effect, reducing all InsP/(Lipid + InsP) values greater than 0.15 (i.e. produced by carbachol at raised [K+], noradrenaline and by 50 mM K+) to about this value. Time-course experiments indicated that NaF treatment reduced the rate of carbachol-stimulated inositol phospholipid breakdown up to this InsP/(Lipid + InsP) level and thereafter blocked further breakdown. Inhibitory effects upon carbachol-stimulated inositol phospholipid breakdown were not seen with forskolin, sodium nitroprusside or 8BrcGMP. Under conditions where there is no de novo synthesis of phosphoinositides from [3H]myo-inositol, NaF reduced the total Lipid + InsP labelling by about 20%. NaF in addition inhibits the activity of Ins(1,4)P2-phosphatase in cerebral cortical homogenates. It is concluded that fluoride ions inhibit agonist-stimulated inositol phospholipid breakdown via actions not only on G-proteins but also on phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C substrate availability.

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

Abstract
The role of calcium and sodium in stimulating phosphoinositide hydrolysis in brain was investigated in rat cerebral cortical synaptoneurosomes. In buffer containing 136 mM sodium and various concentrations of added calcium (0-1.0 mM), basal, potassium-stimulated, and norepinephrine-stimulated formation of 3H-inositol phosphates decreased with decreasing extracellular calcium. Potassium- and norepinephrine-stimulated formation of 3H-inositol phosphates was reduced to basal levels by addition of EGTA. Isosmotically replacing sodium with choline chloride or N-methyl-D-glucamine to disrupt Na+/Ca2+ exchange resulted in a large increase in the formation of 3H-inositol phosphates. Measurement of cytosolic calcium with fura-2 revealed that the cytosolic calcium concentration was sensitive to changes in the extracellular calcium concentration and increased on resuspension of synaptoneurosomes in sodium-free rather than sodium-containing medium. In the absence of sodium, potassium-stimulated formation of 3H-inositol phosphates was reduced or eliminated, depending on the extracellular calcium concentration. Subtraction of basal formation of 3H-inositol phosphates from that in the presence of 1 mM carbachol or 100 microM norepinephrine revealed that the carbachol-stimulated component was the same in the presence and absence of sodium, whereas the norepinephrine-stimulated component was reduced in the absence of sodium. Addition of the protein kinase C activator 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate inhibited norepinephrine- and, to a lesser extent, carbachol but not basal or aluminum fluoride-stimulated formation of 3H-inositol phosphates in sodium-free medium. These results suggest that an increase in intracellular calcium, via disruption of Na+/Ca2+ exchange or depolarization-induced calcium influx, may explain previous demonstrations that agents that stimulate Na+ influx can also stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
An investigation was done to elucidate the regulatory role of protein kinase C (PKC) in insulin release and also the effects of PKC activation on NaF-induced inositol phospholipid (PI) turnover in and insulin release from rat insulinoma cells (RINr). NaF stimulated insulin secretion in association with an increase in [3H]inositol phosphate formation in RINr cells. Furthermore, NaF induced a rapid decrease in 32P-labeling of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-diphosphate (PIP2) with a concomitant increase of [32P]phosphatidic acid in prelabeled cells. In contrast, NaF had no effect on cyclic AMP production. Although phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) also stimulated insulin release, on concomitant administration of NaF and PDBu, insulin secretion was clearly less than that expected on the basis of an additive action. Moreover, PDBu significantly inhibited NaF-enhanced PI turnover. However, this inhibition was abolished after downregulating PKC by pretreating RINr cells with PDBu. Thus NaF-induced insulin release from RINr cells appears to involve enhancement of PI turnover. Moreover, because NaF is known to activate guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins) directly, PKC activation appears to induce a mechanism that inhibits stimulus-secretion coupling at a level between G protein and phospholipase C-induced PIP2 hydrolysis.

Abstract
We investigated, using adult (2-month-old) and senescent (12- and 24-month-old) rats, the effects of aging on the relationship between the alpha 1-adrenergic coupling system and the membrane viscosity of the cerebral cortex. There was no age-related difference in the KD values of [3H]prazosin binding on the membranes. The Bmax values of [3H]prazosin binding were reduced with advanced age. Norepinephrine-induced formation of 3H-labeled inositol phosphates (3H-IPs) in the slices increased with advanced age. The EC50 values for norepinephrine to stimulate the formation of 3H-IPs at advanced age were lower than that at adult age. The cholesterol content in membranes increased with advanced age. No changes in the phospholipid content in membranes were observed with advanced age. Concomitantly, an increase of the molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipids was observed with advanced age. The membrane viscosity as measured by 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene increased with advanced age. These results indicate that the altered cholesterol content and/or viscosity in cortical membranes of the aged rat may account for the loss of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor density and/or compensatory changes in the receptor-phospholipase C coupling system.

Abstract
We have studied the effects of fluoride, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) and carbachol on phospholipase C and polyphosphoinositide synthesis. The experimental system consisted of membranes from rat brain cortex, with exogenous [3H]phosphatidylinositol ([3H]PtdIns) as substrate. In such systems, we have not found evidence to support carbachol and/or GTP[S] stimulation of PtdIns phosphorylation. Fluoride inhibited synthesis of PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2 from PtdIns. Consequently, under conditions where breakdown of polyphosphoinositides by phospholipase C was dependent on PtdIns kinase activity, fluoride inhibited activation by GTP[S] plus carbachol of phospholipase C. When conditions allowed direct breakdown of PtdIns and precluded PtdIns kinase activity, the stimulatory effects of fluoride and GTP[S] plus carbachol on phospholipase C activity were additive.

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

Abstract
In this study we have used fluoride as a tool to investigate the involvement of G protein-coupled effector systems in the regulation of the depolarization-induced release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from rat cerebral cortex. To distinguish among the activating effects of NaF on G proteins linked to different effectors, such as adenylate cyclase, polyphosphoinositide phospholipase C, and K+ channels, agents specific to these effectors have been used in parallel. NaF induced a marked dose-dependent facilitation of the K(+)-evoked release of [14C]GABA, with an EC50 of 1.26 mM, increasing release by 103% at 5 mM NaF. No effect on basal release was seen up to 3 mM NaF, and no modulation of [3H]acetylcholine (ACh) release was seen up to 5 mM NaF. Phorbol 12,13-diacetate (PDA) produced a similar dose-dependent facilitation of the K(+)-evoked release of [14C]GABA, potentiating the release of [14C]GABA by 50% at 10 microM PDA. The phosphodiesterase inhibitors, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) and theophylline, inhibited the K(+)-evoked release of [14C]GABA, and IBMX reversed the NaF facilitation of GABA release in a dose-dependent manner (pA2 2.57). The K+ channel blocker (IA current) tetrahydroaminoacridine (THA), which markedly inhibits the K(+)-evoked release of [14C]GABA, also reversed the NaF facilitatory effect, but the release of [3H]ACh was less sensitive to the inhibitory effect of THA. On the other hand, the K+ channel blocker, tetraethylammonium, which has no effect on the release of [14C]GABA, caused a significant facilitation of K(+)-evoked release of [3H]ACh. From these studies, it is concluded that GABA release in cerebral cortex is subject to regulation by G protein-linked effector systems that are distinct from those affecting the release of [3H]ACh in cerebral cortex.

Abstract
It has been suggested that K+, Li+ and Fl- affect the function of G proteins coupled to signal transducing enzymes. Lithium, at concentrations which were found to reduce forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, was without effect on either membrane [3H]phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate ([3H]PIP2) hydrolysis measured in the absence or presence of 5'-guanylyl-imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p), or (at greater than or equal to 2.3 mM Li+) upon the stimulation of rat cerebral cortical inositol phospholipid breakdown by either carbachol, noradrenaline or NaF measured at either 6 or 18 mM K+. The increase in assay [K+] greatly enhanced the inositol phospholipid response to carbachol but not to NaF. The inhibitory effect of carbachol upon forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase was not affected by raising the [K+] from 6 to 18 mM. At 6 mM K+ (both in the absence and presence of 15 microM AlCl3), the effects of carbachol and NaF upon inositol phospholipid breakdown were essentially additive, whereas at 18 mM K+, the breakdown response to carbachol (antagonised by pirenzepine with a pA2 value of 7.6) was similar in the absence and presence of NaF. It is concluded that in the rat cerebral cortex: (a) Li+ does not affect the function of either the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C enzyme itself or the Gp coupled to this enzyme; (b) the difference between the additivity between NaF and carbachol seen at different assay [K+] may reflect the K(+)-dependent changes in the tetrodotoxin-resistant and tetrodotoxin-sensitive pathways of carbachol stimulation of inositol phospholipid breakdown reported by Gurwitz and Sokolovsky (1987, Biochemistry 26, 633); and (c) the effect of K+ on muscarinic receptor-coupled inositol phospholipid breakdown is not found for muscarinic receptors inhibitorily coupled to adenylate cyclase. Evidence is also presented to suggest that NaF affects the dephosphorylation of the formed [3H]inositol polyphosphates.

Abstract
The G-proteins which regulate hormonal turnover of phosphoinositide (PI) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells have been investigated. A 40-41 kDa doublet present in the membranes of these cells was selectively ADP ribosylated by pertussis toxin (PTx), and this doublet was Gi alpha 2 and Gi alpha 3 according to immunoblotting with specific antisera. By contrast, a doublet of 24-26 kDa proteins in the same membrane preparations was ADP ribosylated by the C3 component of botulinum toxin (BoTx). PTx-dependent ADP ribosylation blocked stimulation of PI turnover by histamine, but did not affect stimulation by bradykinin, whereas BoTx (C2 + C3 components) had the opposite effect. Thus two different groups of G-proteins may be involved in hormone-dependent stimulation of PI turnover in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

Abstract
Treatment of rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) with 20 mM sodium fluoride for 10 min, followed by removal of fluoride and addition of Ca2+ results in extensive exocytosis. This is apparent from a strong lysozyme release, together with a slight LDH release. During fluoride-activated Ca2+-dependent exocytosis an increase of indo fluorescence and a strong association of 45Ca with the cells occurs. Different inhibitors inhibit both 45Ca association and lysozyme release. Pretreatment of PMNs with pertussis toxin, or the presence of AI3+ in the medium has little effect on fluoride-activated Ca2+-dependent exocytosis. During pretreatment with fluoride, the ATP level strongly decreases. Exocytosis nevertheless occurs upon addition of Ca2+, indicating that a normal ATP level is not required for exocytosis. The glycogen content of the cell strongly decreases during exposure to Ca2+ after pretreatment with fluoride, but not during pretreatment with fluoride. Breakdown of glycogen and accumulation of 3-phosphoglycerate suggest that glycolysis is blocked at the enolase step, but proceeds as far as that step.

Abstract
Ca2+ dependent polyphosphoinositide phospholipase C (PLC) activity in cardiac sarcolemma hydrolyzed both endogenous and exogenous phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) with an associated increase in inositol bisphosphate (IP2). Dialyzed cytosol and certain fractions of cytosol isolated by anion exchange or gel filtration chromatography activated sarcolemmal PLC activity by approx. 100%. The PLC activator eluted with an apparent molecular weight of 160 Kdal on a Sephacryl 300 column and was destroyed by heat or trypsin treatment. Exogenous 3H-PIP2 was not hydrolyzed by cytosolic fractions containing sarcolemmal PLC activator. These studies demonstrate that the polyphosphoinositide PLC in cardiac sarcolemma is regulated by a cytosolic protein.
