Abstract
This review assesses the extent and the significance of catalytic versatility shown by several inositol phosphate kinases: the inositol phosphate multikinase, the reversible Ins(1,3,4) P (3)/Ins(3,4,5,6) P (4) kinase, and the kinases that synthesize diphosphoinositol polyphosphates. Particular emphasis is placed upon data that are relevant to the situation in vivo. It will be shown that catalytic promiscuity towards different inositol phosphates is not typically an evolutionary compromise, but instead is sometimes exploited to facilitate tight regulation of physiological processes. This multifunctionality can add to the complexity with which inositol signalling pathways interact. This review also assesses some proposed additional functions for the catalytic domains, including transcriptional regulation, protein kinase activity and control by molecular 'switching', all in the context of growing interest in 'moonlighting' (gene-sharing) proteins.

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

Abstract
The pathways of release and metabolism of inositol phosphates in intact heart tissue are different from those observed in isolated cardiomyocytes in culture. Thus, it is essential that methods are available for the quantitation of inositol phosphates in intact tissue preparations. This manuscript describes methods which allow the quantitation of inositol phosphates in different heart preparations including isolated atria and intact perfused heart. The availability of such methods should facilitate study of the role of inositol phosphates in cardiac control mechanisms under physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) turnover pathway in intact heart tissue differs from that in most cell types in that products of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] kinase pathway are not detected in 3H-labeling studies. In contrast, Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase products are detected in isolated neonatal cardiomyocytes. To understand the basis for the observed properties of the cardiac pathway, a detailed study of inositol phosphate (InsP) release has been undertaken by using isolated adult rat left atria. Addition of norepinephrine to 3H-labeled atria caused a slow increase in 3H-labeled Ins(1,4,5)P3 and a more rapid increase in 3H-labeled Ins(1,4)P2, its immediate dephosphorylation product. The mass of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was high in unstimulated atria (13.5 +/- 1.1 pmol/mg tissue, mean +/- SEM, n = 4) and did not change with stimulation. Measurements of the specific activities of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(4,5)P2 provided an estimate of the turnover rate of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that was 20- to 40-fold lower than the rate of accumulation of 3H label in InsP1 and InsP2. In agreement with this, specific activities of InsP1 and InsP2 were higher than the specific activity of InsP3 in both control and stimulated atria. Neomycin (5 mmol/L) did not inhibit the accumulation of 3H-labeled InsP1 and InsP2 in left atria, even though it reduced the accumulation of 3H label in Ins(1,4,5)P3, providing evidence that InsP1 and InsP2 do not derive primarily from Ins(1,4,5)P3. Stimulation with norepinephrine for 20 minutes resulted in a parallel decrease in 3H-labeled Ins(1,4,5)P3 and in Ins(1,4,5)P3 mass, demonstrating that atria do not contain two different pools of Ins(1,4,5)P3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. The effects of lithium on [3H]-inositol and [3H]-cytidine incorporation into [3H]-inositol monophosphates ([3H]-InsP1) and [3H]-cytidine monophosphorylphosphatidate ([3H]-CMP-PA), respectively, and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4) mass were studied in carbachol-stimulated human m1 muscarinic receptor-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells (m1 CHO cells). 2. Lithium alone (10 mM) had no appreciable effects on any of the four parameters measured; it was only in carbachol-stimulated cells that the effects of lithium became apparent. 3. In the presence of carbachol (1 mM), lithium (10 mM) caused a relatively rapid (within 5 min) accumulation of [3H]-InsP1 and [3H]-CMP-PA which continued up to about 20-30 min, after which accumulation slowed down. On the other hand, the elevation in InsP3 and InsP4 levels produced by carbachol was not altered by lithium in the short-term and only at later times (> 20-30 min) was the response attenuated, with InsP3 and InsP4 levels approaching basal. 4. The effects of lithium on carbachol-stimulated [3H]-InsP1 and [3H]-CMP-PA accumulation and the attenuation of the carbachol-induced elevation of InsP3 and InsP4 were all dose-dependent, with EC50s in the region of 1 mM. 5. The lithium-induced effects on [3H]-CMP-PA and InsP3 and InsP4 in carbachol-stimulated cells could be reversed, in a dose-dependent manner, by preincubation with exogenous myo-inositol (EC50 = 2-3 mM) but not by the inactive analogue scyllo-inositol, indicating that these effects occur as a consequence of depletion of inositol. 6. The temporal effects of lithium are consistent with lithium inhibiting inositol monophosphatase,causing accumulation of InsP1, resulting in lower free inositol levels. This leads to accumulation of CMP-PA and reduced PI synthesis which, once agonist-linked membrane inositol phospholipids are depleted, produces attenuated InsP3 and InsP4 responses.7. These results in ml CHO cells support the hypothesis that lithium affects the PI cycle cell signalling pathway by depletion of inositol due to inhibition of inositol monophosphatase.

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

Abstract
Muscarinic-receptor-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in rat cerebral cortex was investigated by analysis of the kinetics of [3H]inositol phosphate formation and degradation in myo-[2-3H]inositol-labelled tissue slices. Carbachol stimulated rapid (5 s) increases in the concentrations of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3, [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and [3H]Ins(1,4)P2. Stimulated accumulation of [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3, [3H]Ins(1,3)P2 and [3H]Ins(3,4)P2 and [3H]Ins(1/3)P or of [3H]Ins(4)P occurred only subsequently and with a sequence indicating formation by successive dephosphorylation of [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 or of Ins(1,4)P2 respectively. A similar sequence was inferred from the order of rapidity with which the accumulations of [3H]inositol polyphosphates, resulting from sustained (5 min) carbachol stimulation in the presence of LiCl, were reversed when muscarinic receptors were subsequently blocked with atropine. During this latter period of receptor blockade, radiolabel lost from [3H]inositol polyphosphates was quantitively recovered as [3H]inositol monophosphates owing to effective inhibition of monophosphatase by Li+, and the rate of poly- into mono-phosphate conversion was similar to agonist-stimulated rates of monophosphate accumulation. This implies that, even during persistent stimulation, polyphosphoinositide, not PtdIns, is the substrate for phosphoinositidase C. Quantitative comparison of the degradation of [3H]inositol poly- to mono-phosphates after receptor blockade unexpectedly suggests the dual hydrolysis of [3H]Ins(1,4)P2 to [3H]Ins(1)P and [3H]Ins(4)P. This result advises cautious interpretation of the origin of [3H]Ins(1)P in stimulated tissue, but, with other data presented, allows calculation from the observed ratio of [3H]Ins(1/3)P:[3H]Ins(4)P that a minimum of approx. 50% of the [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 produced during persistent muscarinic-receptor stimulation is metabolized by Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase.

Abstract
We previously showed that high extracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentrations raise the levels of inositol phosphates in bovine parathyroid cells, presumably via the G protein-coupled, "receptor-like" mechanism through which Ca2+ is thought to regulate these cells. To date, however, there are limited data showing Ca(2+)-evoked hydrolysis of phosphoinositides with attendant increases in the levels of the biologically active 1,4,5 isomer of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) that would be predicted to arise from such a receptor-mediated process. In the present studies we used HPLC and TLC, respectively, to quantify the high Ca(2+)-induced changes in various inositol phosphates, including the isomers of IP3, and phosphoinositides in bovine parathyroid cells prelabeled with [3H]inositol. In the absence of lithium, high Ca2+ dose dependently elevated the levels of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3], with a maximal, 4- to 5-fold increase within 5 s; the levels of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [I(1,3,4)P3] first rose significantly at 5-10 s and remained 5- to 10-fold elevated for at least 30 minutes. These changes were accompanied by reciprocal 29-36% decreases in PIP2 (within 5-10 s, the earliest time points examined), PIP (within 60 s), and PI (within 60 s). These results document that, as in other cells responding to more classic "Ca(2+)-mobilizing" hormones, the high Ca(2+)-evoked increases in inositol phosphates in bovine parathyroid cells arise from the hydrolysis of phosphoinositides, leading to the rapid accumulation of the active isomer of IP3. The latter presumably underlies the concomitant spike in the cytosolic calcium concentration (Ca(i)) in parathyroid cells.

Abstract
Stimulation of [3H]inositol-prelabelled rat cerebral-cortex slices with carbachol results in the accumulation of four [3H]inositol bisphosphate isomeric species, Ins(1,3)P2, Ins(1,4)P2, Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins(4,5)P2. Although the last isomer ran as a minor peak on h.p.l.c., its accumulation was dramatically enhanced in the presence of Li+ (1 mM), such that at 30 min it represented almost 35% of the total bisphosphate fraction. The accumulation of Ins(4,5)P2 appeared to be very sensitive to Li+ (EC50 = 94 +/- 3 microM), strongly implicating a Li(+)-sensitive metabolism. Evidence for this is provided from the rapid but Li(+)-sensitive decay of Ins(4,5)P2 when muscarinic-receptor stimulation is antagonized by atropine at a time when accumulations have reached a new steady state. Manipulation of phospholipase D by activators and inhibitors of protein kinase C did not suggest a role for phospholipase D hydrolysis of PtdInsP2 in the formation of Ins(4,5)P2. Attempts to reveal Ins(4,5)P2 metabolism, or indeed its synthesis from Ins(1,4,5)P3, were not successful with broken cell preparations and strongly suggest discrete compartmentation of inositol phosphate metabolism in the intact cell.

Abstract
1. A detailed structural survey has been made of the inositol phosphates of unstimulated and vasopressin-stimulated WRK-1 rat mammary tumour cells. Inositol phosphate peaks were separated by h.p.l.c., and structural assignments were made for more than 20 compounds by combinations of: (a) co-chromatography with labelled standards; (b) site-specific enzymic dephosphorylation; (c) complete and partial periodate oxidation, followed by h.p.l.c. of polyols and their stereospecific oxidation by dehydrogenases; and (d) ammoniacal hydrolysis. 2. The 'inositol monophosphates' fraction from unstimulated cells included an uncharacterized peak, probably containing some glycerophosphoinositol, and Ins(1:2-cyclic)P. Stimulation provoked accumulation of both Ins1P and Ins3P, of Ins2P, and of Ins5P and/or the enantiomers Ins4P and Ins6P. The proportions of Ins1P and Ins3P were determined by partial periodate oxidation and enantiomeric identification of the resulting glucitols. 3. Three inositol bisphosphate peaks were detected in unstimulated cells: Ins(1,4)P2 [this was distinguished chemically from its enantiomer Ins(3,6)P2], Ins(3,4)P2 and/or Ins(1,6)P2, and Ins(4,5)P2 and/or Ins(5,6)P2. On stimulation, Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(3,4)P2 [and/or Ins(1,6)P2] levels increased, and Ins(1:2-cyclic,4)P2 and Ins(1,3)P2 were also formed. 4. Three inositol trisphosphate peaks were obtained from unstimulated cells: all increased during stimulation. These were Ins(1,3,4)P3 [with some Ins(1:2-cyclic,4,5)P3], Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(3,4,5)P3 [and/or Ins(1,5,6)P3]. During stimulation, another compound, probably Ins(1,4,6)P3, appeared in the 'Ins(1,4,5)P3 peak'. The 'Ins(3,4,5)P3 peak' contained a second trisphosphate, probably Ins(2,4,5)P3. 5. Three inositol tetrakisphosphates, namely Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, were present in unstimulated cells, and all accumulated during stimulation. 6. Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, which is the most abundant inositol polyphosphate in these cells, a less abundant inositol pentakisphosphate and inositol hexakisphosphate were all unresponsive to stimulation.

Abstract
In most tissues stimulation of the phosphatidylinositol turnover pathway causes release of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], which is subsequently metabolized to a wide range of inositol phosphate isomers deriving from both phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions. However, addition of noradrenaline to isolated intact neonatal-rat hearts generated only those inositol phosphates produced by dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3. Products of the InsP3 kinase pathway were absent from the profiles, except after prolonged stimulation. In contrast, addition of noradrenaline to isolated cultured neonatal-rat cardiomyocytes caused the release of Ins(1,4,5)P3, which was metabolized by both phosphorylation and dephosphorylation pathways to yield a complex range of inositol phosphate isomers, as observed in many other cell types. These differences between the responses in intact tissues and in isolated cell preparations were not caused by the different conditions used for [3H]inositol labelling. Furthermore, results could not be explained by overgrowth of other cell types in the isolated cell preparations. Thus the results demonstrate that the isolation and culture of rat neonatal cardiomyocytes produces alterations in the nature of the phosphatidylinositol turnover pathway.

Abstract
A high density of binding sites for endothelin has been described in rat renal papilla but the nature and significance of papillary endothelin receptors have not yet been evaluated. In the current study, the effect of endothelin peptides on phosphatidylinositol turnover in papillary tubules has been investigated. Endothelin-1, endothelin-3 and the endothelin-related peptide sarafatoxin S6b all stimulated the accumulation of inositol phosphates in [3H]inositol-labelled papillary tubule preparations. However, at these papillary receptors endothelin-3 was more potent than endothelin-1. In other tissues, endothelin-1 is more potent than endothelin-3 at endothelin receptors coupled to phosphatidylinositol turnover. The EC50 value for endothelin-3 expressed as the negative logarithm was 9.3 +/- 0.13 compared with 8.42 +/- 0.11 for endothelin-1 (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 5 in each case, P less than 0.01). The affinity of sarafatoxin S6b was similar to that for endothelin-3 (9.2 +/- 0.15, n = 3). These findings raise the possibility of a direct tubular function of endothelin and suggest that endothelin-3 rather than endothelin-1 may be the natural agonist for these papillary receptors.

Abstract
The ability of lithium to exert profound and selective psychopharmacological effects to ameliorate manic-depressive psychosis has been the focus of considerable research effort. There is increasing evidence that lithium exerts its therapeutic action by interfering with polyphosphoinositide metabolism in brain and prevention of inositol recycling by an uncompetitive inhibition of inositol monophosphatase. Stefan Nahorski, Ian Ragan and John Challiss discuss this unusual stimulus-dependent form of enzyme inhibition, emphasizing that the selectivity exhibited by lithium depends upon the degree of inositol lipid hydrolysis and polyphosphoinositide dephosphorylation.

Abstract
The accumulation of InsP1, InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4 isomers was investigated in bovine aortic endothelial cells labelled with [3H]inositol and stimulated with ATP. The separation of these isomers was performed by ion-pairing reverse-phase h.p.l.c. on a mu Bondapack C18 column for the InsP3 and InsP4 isomers and by ion-exchange h.p.l.c. on a Partisil SAX column for the InsP1 and InsP2 isomers. In unstimulated endothelial cells, a large amount of material was co-eluted with InsP5 and InsP6, whereas amounts of InsP3 and InsP4 were small. The addition of ATP (100 microM) induced a striking (35-fold stimulation) and transient increase of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that was maximal around 15 s. This peak was followed by a more sustained accumulation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,3,4)P3, but the amounts of these two metabolites accumulated in response to ATP were much smaller than that of Ins(1,4,5)P3. The increase in InsP2 isomers in response to ATP had similar characteristics: a rapid and transient accumulation of Ins(1,4)P2, followed by an increase of Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins(1,3)P2, which was more sustained but had a smaller magnitude. ATP also induced the accumulation of both Ins1P and Ins4P, but with different time courses: the level of Ins4P was maximal at 1 min (60 times the control value) and returned to baseline after 5 min, whereas the increase in Ins1P was undetectable at 1 min and reached a maximum after 5 min, which represented 240% of the basal level. These data indicate that Ins(1,4,5)P3, which is rapidly formed in aortic endothelial cells as a result of activation of P2Y receptors, is preferentially metabolized at early times (less than 1 min) by a 5-phosphatase, with the sequential formation of Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins4P. Afterwards, a small but sustained increase in the content of Ins(1,3,4)P3, Ins(1,3)P2, Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins1P was observed, reflecting the activation of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase.

Abstract
1. Cultured neonatal myocytes are commonly used as a model system for the study of cardiac phosphatidylinositol (PI) turnover. 2. In neonatal myocytes stimulation with noradrenaline causes the release of the Ca2(+)-releasing compound inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate and the generation of the Ca2(+)-regulatory compound inositol-1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. 3. Addition of noradrenaline to intact, neonatal rat hearts stimulates the release of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, but not inositol-1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. 4. These findings show that the isolation and culture of the neonatal myocyte causes changes in the PI turnover pathway so that it becomes similar to that described in other cell types and different from that in intact myocardial tissue. 5. The neonatal myocyte is not a useful model for the study of cardiac PI turnover.

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
Endothelin has steroidogenic activity in adrenal glomerulosa cells, as do two other vasoconstrictor peptides, angiotensin II and vasopressin. The steroidogenic activities of angiotensin II and vasopressin are probably mediated via the phosphatidylinositol-turnover pathway and associated changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. Endothelin caused a steroidogenic response, which was small compared with that to angiotensin II and quantitatively similar to the vasopressin response. Cytosolic free Ca2+ responses were similarly higher to angiotensin II than to either of the other two peptides. However, total inositol phosphate responses to endothelin and angiotensin II were similar when these were measured over 20 min, and were quantitatively greater than the vasopressin response. A detailed study has been made of the phosphatidylinositol-turnover response to endothelin in comparison with responses to angiotensin II and vasopressin. Each of the three peptides produced a rapid and transient rise in Ins(1,4,5)P3 (max. 5-15 s), followed by a slow sustained rise. Ins(1,4,5)P3 was metabolized by both dephosphorylation and phosphorylation pathways, but the relative importance of the two metabolic pathways was different under stimulation by each of the three peptides. These findings show that adrenal glomerulosa cells can distinguish between the stimulation of phosphatidylinositol turnover by three different effectors. These differences in the pathway may be associated with the observed different steroidogenic and Ca2+ responses to the three peptides.

Abstract
The carbachol and adrenaline-mediated accumulation of inositol monophosphate isomers in rat cortical prisms has been studied using a commonly employed experimental protocol involving preincubation with myo-[2-3H]-inositol and subsequent incubation with agonists in the presence of 10 mM LiCl. Inositol phosphate isomers have been analysed by HPLC and identified by comparison of their elution characteristics with those of commercially available standards and the degradation products of authentic Ins 1,3,4-P3 and Ins 1,4,5-P3. Incubation of prelabelled cortical prisms for 1 hr with 10 mM LiCl alone gives rise to accumulation of radioactivity in two inositol monophosphate peaks which co-elute with Ins 1-P and Ins 4-P and one major bisphosphate peak which co-migrates with Ins 1,4-P2. Most of the monophosphate radioactivity is recovered in the Ins 4-P peak (Ins 1-P/Ins 4-P labelling ratio 0.68). Both carbachol and adrenaline produce dose-dependent increases in the labelling of Ins 1-P and Ins 4-P which are antagonized by atropine and prazosin respectively. However, carbachol produces a larger stimulation of accumulation of both monophosphates and also gives rise to a larger selective increase in the accumulation of Ins 1-P (Ins 1-P/4-P labelling ratio 1.40 in the presence of 1 mM carbachol, 0.98 in the presence of 1 mM adrenaline). Kinetic studies of the carbachol-stimulated increases in inositol mono- and bisphosphate labelling have revealed that, in the early period following carbachol addition (0-5 min), Ins 4-P and Ins 1,4-P2 are labelled more rapidly than Ins 1-P, whereas the reverse is true at later periods (15-60 min) of the incubations. These observations, coupled with the low levels of labelling of the major Ins 1,3,4-P3 breakdown products (Ins 1,3-P2 and Ins 3,4-P2) compared with that of Ins 1,4-P2, suggest that large-scale production of Ins 1-P is a comparatively late feature of carbachol-mediated inositol phospholipid metabolism and that, if the Ins 1-P is derived from breakdown of Ins 1,3,4,5-P4 via Ins 1,3,4-P3, the turnover of Ins 1,3-P2 + Ins 3,4-P2 must be approximately one order of magnitude greater than that of the Ins 4-P precursor, Ins 1,4-P2.

Abstract
We developed a competition binding assay for estimation of the intracellular inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and optimalized it for the measurement of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 content of human blood leucocytes. The present method is considerably cheaper and requires five times fewer cells than the commercial Ins(1,4,5)P3 kit. The mean Ins(1,4,5)P3 content of human blood monocytes, granulocytes, and lymphocytes amounted to 3.3 +/- 1.2 microM, 3.1 +/- 1.4 microM, and 4.6 +/- 1.5 microM, respectively. After stimulation with formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (f-MLP) the Ins(1,4,5)P3 content of human granulocytes and monocytes increased 2-3 times within 10 sec and then gradually decreased, returning to basal values at 60 sec. Lymphocytes did not respond to f-MLP with an increase in their Ins(1,4,5)P3 content.

Abstract
The ability of lithium to interfere with phosphoinositide metabolism in rat cerebral cortex slices has been examined by monitoring the accumulation of CMP-phosphatidate (CMP-PtdOH) and the reduction in Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 levels. A small accumulation of [14C]CMP-PtdOH was seen in slices prelabelled with [14C]cytidine and stimulated with carbachol (1 mM) or Li+ (1 mM). However, simultaneous addition of both agents for 30 min produced a 22-fold accumulation, with Li+ producing a half-maximal effect at a concentration of 0.61 +/- 0.19 mM. Kinetic studies revealed that the effects of carbachol and Li+ on CMP-PtdOH accumulation occurred with no initial lag apparent under these conditions and that preincubation with myo-inositol (10 or 30 mM) dramatically attenuated CMP-PtdOH accumulation. myo-Inositol could also attenuate the rate of accumulation of CMP-PtdOH when added 20 min after carbachol and Li+; these effects were not observed when equimolar concentrations of scyllo-inositol were added. Use of specific radioreceptor assays allowed the mass accumulations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to be monitored. Following a lag of 5-10 min, Li+ resulted in a marked reduction in the accumulation of both inositol polyphosphates resulting from muscarinic-cholinergic stimulation. Preincubation of cerebral cortex slices with myo- (but not scyllo-) inositol delayed, but did not prevent, the reduction in the accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. The results suggest that cerebral cortex, at least in vitro, is very sensitive to myo-inositol depletion under conditions of muscarinic receptor stimulation. The relationship of such depletion to the generation of inositol polyphosphate second messengers is discussed.

Abstract
A gel-filtered soluble fraction prepared from suspension-cultured Nicotiana tabacum cells hydrolysed inositol mono-, bis- and tris-phosphates. At a concentration of 7.5 microM the rates of hydrolysis followed the sequence Ins(1,4,5)P3 greater than Ins(1,4)P2 greater than Ins(4)P congruent to Ins(1)P. The major products of Ins(1,4,5)P3 hydrolysis identified by h.p.l.c. were Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(4,5)P2. Ins(1,4)P2 was hydrolysed exclusively to Ins(4)P. The inclusion of Ca2+ in the incubation buffer markedly stimulated the hydrolysis of all the inositol phosphate substrates. Under identical conditions, Ca2+ inhibited the hydrolysis of inositol phosphates by soluble extracts prepared from rat brain. Half-maximal stimulation of Ins(1,4)P2 hydrolysis was obtained at free [Ca2+] of 0.6 and 1.2 microM when the Mg2+ concentration in the incubations was 0.3 and 1.0 mM respectively. This effect of Ca2+ was exerted solely by increasing the Vmax. of hydrolysis without affecting the Km for Ins(1,4)P2. Again, in contrast with brain, the hydrolysis of inositol bis- or mono-phosphates was insensitive to high concentrations of Li+. We conclude that plants contain specific Li+-insensitive inositol phosphate phosphatases that are regulated by low concentrations of Ca2+ in a manner which is different from that observed in mammalian tissues.

Abstract
The role of phosphoinositide turnover in the mediation of acid secretion was examined in an enriched preparation of isolated rabbit parietal cells (75%). Both gastrin and CCK-8 (octapeptide of cholecystokinin) stimulated [14C]aminopyrine (AP) uptake by cells (EC50 0.07 +/- 0.03 nM (gastrin) and 0.093 +/- 0.065 nM (CCK-8] and increased [3H]inositol phosphates cellular contents (EC50 0.142 +/- 0.016 nM (gastrin) and 0.116 +/- 0.027 nM (CCK-8] in a parallel fashion. In addition, the EC50 values for both phenomenon were quite similar to the Kd values obtained from binding experiments. HPLC analysis of the different [3H]inositol phosphates produced under gastrin or CCK-8 stimulation showed a 2-fold increase in [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels within 5 s with a concomitant increase in [3H]Ins(1,4)P2 content within 15 s. A low but significant rise in [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 cellular contents was also observed. No difference between gastrin- and CCK-8-induced inositol phosphates production could be shown. We can conclude that gastrin and CCK-8 display an identical profile of action, suggesting that they stimulate the acid secretory function of parietal cells through the same receptor site coupled to the Ins(1,4,5)P3 production.

Abstract
This paper describes a rapid and simple method for measuring CMP-phosphatidate (CMP-PA; CDP-diacylglycerol), providing a novel assay for inositol phospholipid metabolism. Rat cerebral-cortical slices labelled with [14C]cytidine were incubated with the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbachol in the presence of various concentrations of LiCl; 10 mM-LiCl greatly enhanced the carbachol-stimulated formation of [14C]CMP-PA over a 60 min incubation period. The potentiation by Li+ was concentration-dependent, with a maximal enhancement at 3 mM and half-maximal enhancement at 0.6 mM-LiCl. The enhancement by Li+ could be reversed by incubation with myo-inositol; a maximal effect was observed with 10 mM-inositol. A similar, though smaller, enhancement of CMP-PA concentrations in the presence of LiCl was observed in slices stimulated with noradrenaline, 5-hydroxytryptamine and K+. The results are discussed in relation to previously observed effects of Li+ on inositol phospholipid metabolism.

Abstract
A commercial isotope dilution assay was used for the determination of Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels in the microorganism Dictyostelium discoideum. Cross-reactivity in the assay was detected with extracts from cells and the medium. The compound which induced this cross-reactivity was tentatively identified as Ins(1,4,5)P3 by (i) codegradation with authentic [32P]Ins(1,4,5)P3 by three specific Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatases, and (ii) co-chromatography with authentic [32P]Ins(1,4,5)P3 on HPLC columns. The cellular concentration was estimated as 165 +/- 42 pmol/10(8) cells, yielding a mean intracellular Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration of 3.3 microM. Dictyostelium cells secrete large amounts of Ins(1,4,5)P3 at a rate of about 10% of the cellular content per minute, yielding about 0.13 microM extracellular Ins(1,4,5)P3 after 15 min in a suspension of 10(8) cells/ml. The chemoattractant cAMP induced a transient increase of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration; the data suggest an intracacellular rise from 3.3 to 5.5 microM with a maximum at 6 s after stimulation.

Abstract
1. Basal and carbachol-stimulated accumulations of isomeric [3H]inositol mono-, bis-, tris- and tetrakis-phosphates were examined in rat cerebral-cortex slices labelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol. 2. In control samples the major [3H]inositol phosphates detected were co-eluted on h.p.l.c. with Ins(1)P, Ins(4)P (inositol 1- and 4-monophosphate respectively), Ins(1,4)P2 (inositol 1,4-bisphosphate), Ins(1,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-tris-phosphate) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate). 3. After stimulation to steady state with carbachol, accumulation of each of these products was markedly increased. 4. Agonist stimulation, however, also evoked much more dramatic increased accumulations of a second [3H]inositol trisphosphate, which was co-eluted on h.p.l.c. with authentic Ins(1,3,4)P3 (inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate) and of three further [3H]inositol bisphosphates ([3H]InsP2(s]. 5. Examination of the latter by chemical degradation by periodate oxidation and/or h.p.l.c. allowed identification of these as [3H]Ins(1,3)P2, [3H]Ins(3,4)P2 and [3H]Ins(4,5)P2 (inositol 1,3-, 3,4- and 4,5-bisphosphates respectively), which respectively accounted for about 22%, 8% and 3% of total [3H]InsP2 in extracts from stimulated tissue slices. 6. By using a h.p.l.c. method which clearly resolves Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,3,4,6)P4 (inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate), only the former isomer could be detected in extracts from either control or stimulated tissue slices. Similarly, [3H]inositol pentakis- and hexakis-phosphates were not detectable either in the presence or absence of carbachol under the radiolabelling conditions described. 7. The catabolism of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 by cell-free preparations from cerebral cortex was also studied. 8. In the presence of Mg2+, [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 was specifically dephosphorylated via [3H]Ins(1,4)P2 and [3H]Ins(4)P to free [3H]inositol, whereas [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 was degraded via [3H]Ins(3,4)P2 and, to a lesser extent, via [3H]Ins(1,3)P2 to D- and/or L-[3H]Ins(1)P and [3H]inositol. 9. In the presence of EDTA, hydrolysis of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 was greater than or equal to 95% inhibited, whereas [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 was still degraded, but yielded only a single [3H]InsP2 identified as [3H]Ins(1,3)P2. 10. The significance of these observations with cell-free preparations is discussed in relation to the proportions of the separate isomeric [3H]inositol phosphates measured in stimulated tissue slices.

Abstract
1. Seven benzodiazepines were investigated for their ability to interact with receptors for thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on GH3 and GH4C1 pituitary tumour cells. 2. Midazolam and chlordiazepoxide were the most potent inhibitors of TRH-induced [3H]-inositol phosphate formation with Ki values in the low micromolar range. The antagonism was competitive in nature and was increased in potency at sub-physiological temperatures. 3. None of the agents examined antagonized bombesin-induced [3H]-inositol phosphate formation in GH4C1 cells. 4. While the ability of benzodiazepines to interact with the GABA receptor-chloride channel ionophore is markedly stereospecific, little difference was evident in the ability of (+)- and (-)-4-methylmidazolam (Ro 21-5656 and Ro 21-5657) to compete with TRH at its receptor. 5. Recently it has been suggested that, in contrast to phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, the TRH-induced breakdown of phosphatidylinositol polyphosphates is transient in clonal pituitary cells. Addition of chlordiazepoxide to TRH-stimulated GH3 cells up to 60 min after initiating the reaction leads, however, to an immediate decline in the cellular content of inositol trisphosphate. This indicates that TRH-induced phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis is not transient.

Abstract
The metabolism of inositol 1- and 4-monophosphates in HL60 promyelocytic leukaemia cells was studied. LiCl, BeCl2 and NaF inhibited the hydrolysis of both monophosphates with half maximal inhibition occurring at 1.2 mM, 0.3 microM, 0.25 mM (Ins 1P) and 0.14 mM, 0.56 microM, 0.28 mM (Ins 4P) respectively. Lithium was an uncompetitive inhibitor with respect to both substrates. Ins 4P inhibited the hydrolysis of Ins 1P in a concentration dependent manner, suggesting that it acts as a competing substrate for the same enzyme. Half maximal inhibition occurred at 120 microM Ins 4P. The lithium sensitive activity responsible for the metabolism of both monophosphates was present in a soluble fraction made from the cells. Taken together these data suggest that Ins 1P and Ins 4P are hydrolysed by a single soluble enzyme activity which is sensitive to inhibition by lithium, beryllium and fluoride.

Abstract
Human umbilical-vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured, and their inositol phosphate formation and Ca2+ mobilization in response to thrombin and histamine were studied. Evidence from measurement of intracellular Ca2+ in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ established that the two agonists were both acting on a single cell population, and suggested that a Ca2+-influx component was stimulated which was dependent on receptor-occupancy. After 30 s of stimulation in the presence of 10 mM-LiCl, the effects of 20 microM-histamine and 1 unit of thrombin/ml on formation of inositol phosphates were additive, but at 5 min they were not. HUVECs labelled with myo-[3H]inositol for 72 h synthesized radiolabelled inositol pentakis- and hexakis-phosphate. The predominant isomers of inositol mono-, bis- and tris-phosphates whose formation was stimulated were the 4-phosphate, the 1,4-bisphosphate and the 1,3,4-trisphosphate.

Abstract
We studied the dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) by permeabilized rat intestinal epithelial cells incubated in a medium resembling intracellular ionic strength and pH. Saponin-permeabilized cells rapidly dephosphorylated Ins(1,4,5)P3 to a mixture of three InsP2 (inositol bisphosphate) isomers, namely Ins(1,4)P2, Ins(1,5)P2 and Ins(4,5)P2. These products were identified by h.p.l.c. analysis after dephosphorylation of both 3H- and 32P-labelled Ins(1,4,5)P3. Ins(1,4)P2 accumulated to about half of the concentration attained by Ins(1,5)P2 and Ins(4,5)P2. Ins(1,4,5)P3 dephosphorylation was inhibited, by up to 75%, by 10 mM-glucose 6-phosphate. In these conditions Ins(1,4)P2 became the predominant product, indicating that glucose 6-phosphate inhibited non-specific dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, at least at the 1- and 4-phosphate groups. Ins(1,4)P2 was further dephosphorylated, and the major InsP (inositol monophosphate) product was Ins4P. Most of the glucose 6-phosphate-inhibitable Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatase activity was exposed on the cell surface. The glucose 6-phosphate-insensitive Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity was not detected until the cells were permeabilized with saponin. This intracellular 5-phosphatase activity was: (i) predominantly associated with the particulate portion of the cell; (ii) strongly inhibited by 10 mM-2,3-bisphosphoglycerate; (iii) insensitive to 50 mM-Li+. Therefore the Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity in enterocytes appears similar to the 5-phosphatase that has been characterized in a number of cell types.

Abstract
The hormones bombesin and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulated formation of inositol- monophosphate, bisphosphate, trisphosphate and tetrakisphosphate with parallel time courses in GH4C1 cells, while a more polar inositol polyphosphate peak, consisting of inositol-pentakisphosphate and perhaps also inositol-hexakisphosphate, was unaffected by either hormone. Although bombesin and TRH had similar potencies in stimulating inositol trisphosphate production (Km = 30 nM and 40 nM, respectively), TRH was significantly more efficacious than bombesin. Maximal stimulation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate formation by TRH was not further increased by addition of a maximally effective dose of bombesin, suggesting that the two hormones act through stimulation of a common pool of phospholipase C, and this enzyme pool can be fully stimulated by TRH, alone.

Abstract
After the initial discovery of receptor-linked generation of inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) it was generally assumed that Ins(1,4,5)P3 and its proposed breakdown products inositol(1,4)bisphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2) and Ins1P, along with cyclic inositol monophosphate, were the only inositol phosphates found in significant amounts in animal cells. Since then, three levels of complexity have been introduced. Firstly, Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be phosphorylated to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, and the subsequent metabolism of these two compounds has been found to be intricate and probably different between various tissues. The functions of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 are almost certainly to regulate cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, but the reasons for the labyrinth of the metabolic pathways after their deactivation by a specific 5-phosphatase remain obscure. Secondly, inositol pentakis- and hexakisphosphates have been found in many animal cells other than avian erythrocytes. It has been shown that their synthesis pathway is entirely separate from the inositol phosphates discussed above, both in terms of many of the isomers involved and probably in the subcellular localization; some possible functions of InsP5 and InsP6 are discussed here. Thirdly, cyclic inositol polyphosphates have been reported in stimulated tissues; the evidence for their occurrence in vivo and their possible physiological significance are also discussed.
