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

Abstract
Inositol phospholipids play multiple roles in cell signalling systems. Two widespread eukaryotic phosphoinositide-based signal transduction mechanisms, phosphoinositidase C-catalysed phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) hydrolysis and 3-OH kinase-catalysed PtdIns(4,5)P2 phosphorylation, make the second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) sn-1,2-diacylglycerol and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. In addition, PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns3P have been implicated in exocytosis and membrane trafficking. We now show that when the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe are hyperosmotically stressed, they rapidly synthesize phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2) by a process that involves activation of a PtdIns3P 5-OH kinase. This PtdIns(3,5)P2 accumulation only occurs in yeasts that have an active vps34-encoded PtdIns 3-OH kinase, showing that this latter kinase makes the PtdIns3P needed for PtdIns(3,5)P2 synthesis and indicating that PtdIns(3,5)P2 may have a role in sorting vesicular proteins. PtdIns(3,5)P2 is also present in mammalian and plant cells: in monkey Cos-7 cells, its labelling is inversely related to the external osmotic pressure. The stimulation of a PtdIns3P 5-OH kinase-catalysed synthesis of PtdIns(3,5)P2, a molecule that might be a new type of phosphoinositide 'second messenger, thus appears to be central to a widespread and previously uncharacterized regulatory pathway.

Abstract
Biochemical and genetic data on the metabolism of inositol phosphates in the microorganism Dictyostelium are combined in a scheme composed of in five subroutes. The first subroute is the inositol cycle as found in other organisms: inositol is incorporated into phospholipids that are hydrolysed by PLC producing Ins(1,4,5)P3 which is dephosphorylated to inositol. The second subroute is the sequential phosphorylation of inositol to InsP6; the Ins(3,4,6)P3 intermediate does not release Ca2+. The third subroute is the sequential phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 to InsP6 in a nucleus associated fraction, whereas the fourth subroute is the dephosphorylation of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 at the plasma membrane. This last route mediates Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation in cells with a disruption of the single PLC gene. Finally, we recognize the formation of InsP7 and InsP8 as the fifth subroute.

Abstract
Dictyostelium cells have enzyme activities that generate the inositol polyphosphate Ins(1,4,5)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 via the intermediates Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5,6)P4. These enzyme activities could explain why cells with a deletion of the single phospholipase C gene (plc- cells) possess nearly normal Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels. In this study the regulation and the subcellular localization of the enzyme activities was investigated. The enzyme activities performing the different reaction steps from Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 are probably due to a single enzyme. Indications for this are the previously shown similar Ca2+ dependencies of the various reaction steps. Furthermore, the activities mediating the complete conversion of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 co-purify after subcellular fractionation, solubilization, and chromatography of the proteins. Subcellular fractionation studies demonstrate that the enzyme is localized mainly at the inner face of the plasma membrane. The enzyme activity could not be stimulated in vitro by guanosine 5'-(3-thio)triphosphate, a procedure known to activate G-protein-coupled enzymes in Dictyostelium. Still, in plc- cells the level of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was increased significantly after stimulation with high concentrations of the extracellular ligand cAMP. This stimulation is most likely due to the influx of Ca2+ because no increase of Ins(1,4,5)P3 could be detected in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. The results demonstrate the existence of a new receptor-controlled route for the formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that is independent of phospholipase C.

Abstract
In an earlier study a mutant Dictyostelium cell-line (plc-) was constructed in which all phospholipase C activity was disrupted and nonfunctional, yet these cells had nearly normal Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels (Drayer, A.L., Van Der Kaay, J., Mayr, G.W, Van Haastert, P.J.M. (1990) EMBO J. 13, 1601-1609). We have now investigated if these cells have a phospholipase C-independent de novo pathway of Ins(1,4,5)P3 synthesis. We found that homogenates of plc- cells produce Ins(1,4,5)P3 from endogenous precursors. The enzyme activities that performed these reactions were located in the particulate cell fraction, whereas the endogenous substrate was soluble and could be degraded by phytase. We tested various potential inositol polyphosphate precursors and found that the most efficient were Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, and Ins(1,4,5,6)P4. The utilization of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, which can be formed independently of phospholipase C by direct phosphorylation of inositol (Stephens, L.R. and Irvine, R.F. (1990) Nature 346, 580-582), provides Dictyostelium with an alternative and novel pathway of de novo Ins(1,4,5)P3 synthesis. We further discovered that Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 was converted to Ins(1,4,5)P3 via both Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5,6)P4. In the absence of calcium no Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation could be observed; half-maximal activity was observed at low micromolar calcium concentrations. These reaction steps could also be performed by a single enzyme purified from rat liver, namely, the multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase. These data indicate that organisms as diverse as rat and Dictyostelium possess enzyme activities capable of synthesizing the second messengers Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 via a novel phospholipase C-independent pathway.

Abstract
The degradation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in Dictyostelium was investigated using a mixture of [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and [3-32P]Ins-(1,3,4,5)P4. After incubation of this mixture with a Dictyostelium homogenate the 32P/3H ratio found in the InsP3 product was reduced to 24% of the ratio in the substrate. 32P-labelled inorganic phosphate was found as well, whereas hardly any InsP2 was detected. This indicates that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 is mainly degraded by a 3-phosphatase. The other enzyme was characterized by identification of the 32P-labelled InsP3 isomer. This isomer did not co-elute with Ins(1,3,4)P3, indicating that no 5-phosphatase was present in Dictyostelium. The 32P-labelled InsP3 could be oxidized using NaIO4. The only InsP3 isomer that has these characteristics is Ins(3,4,5)P3, indicating 1-phosphatase activity. The 1-phosphatase appeared to be dependent on MgCl2, whereas the 3-phosphatase was still active in the absence of MgCl2. An analogue of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 with a thiophosphate substitution at the 1-position was found to be almost completely resistant to hydrolysis by the 1-phosphatase, but was degraded by the 3-phosphatase.

Abstract
Estrogen deficiency is associated with bone loss, and estrogen replacement is an effective treatment of this osteoporotic process. This study examines the early (5-120 s) effects of 17 beta-estradiol on the intracellular calcium and phospholipid metabolism in confluent female rat osteoblasts. The cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was determined using fura-2/AM as Ca2+ probe. Cells were labeled with myo-[2-3H]inositol or [14C]arachidonic acid for inositol or lipid determination. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) production were determined by either mass measurement or anion-exchange chromatography or by thin-layer chromatography, respectively. 17 beta-Estradiol (1 pM to 1 nM) increased [Ca2+]i in a biphasic manner within 10 s via Ca2+ influx from the extracellular milieu, as shown by the effects of the calcium chelator EGTA and the Ca2+ channel blockers nifedipine and verapamil, and via Ca2+ mobilization from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), as shown by the effects of thapsigargin. 17 beta-Estradiol (1 pM to 1 nM) induced a biphasic and concomitant increase in IP3 and DAG formation. Estradiol immobilized on bovine serum albumin (BSA) [E-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime BSA] and its derivative (O-carboxymethyl)oxime rapidly increased ([Ca2+]i, IP3, and DAG and were full agonists, although they were less potent than the free estradiol. They had the same action time course and acted via Ca2+ influx and Ca2+ mobilization from ER. Tamoxifen, a potent inhibitor of genomic steroid responses, did not block the rapid increase in Ca2+, IP3, and DAG induced by estradiol. Finally, inhibitor of phospholipase C (neomycin) and pertussis toxin abolished the effects of 17 beta-estradiol on IP3 and DAG formation. These results suggest that female rat osteoblasts bear non-genomic unconventional cell surface receptors for estradiol, belonging to the class of the membrane receptors coupled to a phospholipase C via a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein.

Abstract
For the last 5 years, attention has focused on the nongenomic effects of 1,25-(OH)2D3, but considerably less is known about the mechanisms of the nonnuclear actions of 24,25-(OH)2D3. The present study examines and compares the rapid (5-90 s) effects of 100 pM to 10 nM 24,25-(OH)2D3, 10 pM to 1 nM 1,25-(OH)2D3, and 1-100 nM 25-OHD3 on the formation of inositol phosphates and lipids in confluent mouse osteoblasts. 24,25-(OH)2D3 and 25-OHD3 effects were dose dependent; those of 1,25-(OH)2D3 were dose dependent in a bell-shaped manner. The two dihydroxylated metabolites induced a multiphasic response in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation with three stimulation peaks; the IP3 response to 25-OHD3 was monophasic. The amplitude of the IP3 response to 24,25-(OH)2D3 was greater and its oscillation period was slower than that induced by 1,25-(OH)2D3. The diacylglycerol (DAG) responses to secosteroids showed two stimulation peaks that appeared at different times depending on the secosteroid used. Pretreatment with neomycin totally inhibited the first DAG response; neomycin had no effect on the second peak of DAG induced by 25-OHD3, whereas it partially blocked the second response of DAG to 24,25-(OH)2D3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3. These data show for the first time that 24,25-(OH)2D3 can modulate phospholipid metabolism in confluent mouse osteoblasts as early as 5-10 s. The first pathway used by all three secosteroids is that of the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate via phospholipase C activation, leading to the formation of the two second messengers, IP3 and DAG, since neomycin totally blocked the response. Thus, the action of these secosteroids on the osteoblast membrane may also implicate several steps of the phosphatidylcholine cycle, according to the metabolite tested. Finally, these data point to a direct interaction of vitamin D metabolites with specific membrane recognition moieties.

Abstract
1. The patch-clamp technique of whole-cell current recording was applied to single, enzymatically isolated, rat pancreatic acinar cells to investigate the current responses evoked by internal perfusion of inositol polyphosphates (InsPx). The InsPx were included in the solution filling the recording pipette and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3; 10 microM) evoked transient current responses generally of less than 1 min duration, inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(2,4,5)P3; 10 microM) evoked smaller current transients while inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4; 10 microM) evoked no detectable current response. However, in the presence (in external bathing solution) of the phospholipase A2 inhibitor 4-bromophenacyl bromide (4-BPB; 8 microM) all three of the InsPx now evoked prolonged current responses lasting for several minutes. The current responses to all three InsPx were abolished by inclusion of the Ca2+ chelator EGTA (5 mM) in the internal, pipette-filling solution indicating that the responses are calcium dependent and reflect the effect of the InsPx in increasing intracellular Ca2+. Inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentophosphate (InsP5) induced no current response when tested up to 20 microM in the presence or absence of 4-BPB. 2. The potentiating effect of 4-BPB on the InsPx-induced current responses was not mimicked by application of arachidonic acid (AA) oxidation inhibitors; indomethacin (20 microM), nordihydroguaiaretic acid (20 microM) or proadifen (SKF525A, 100 microM). The effects of 4-BPB were countered however, by the inclusion of 2 microM AA in the external solution. The results suggest that the 4-BPB potentiates the response by inhibiting the activity of phospholipase A2, thereby reducing the formation of AA. 3. In the presence of 4-BPB (8 microM) the InsPx-evoked responses were dose dependent with an increase in both the amplitude and speed of onset with increasing concentrations. In the presence of 4-BPB InsP4 was as efficient as Ins(1,4,5)P3 both in terms of speed of onset and amplitude of responses; the efficacy and dissociation constant (Kd) for both of these InsPx were the same at 1 microM and 45 nM respectively. Ins(2,4,5)P3 was always less effective, with an efficacy and Kd of 10 microM and 750 nM respectively. 4. If 4-BPB was applied after the current responses evoked by the InsPx were over, or if guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) was included in the recording pipette then the phospholipase inhibitor gave rise to an additional, prolonged, current response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

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
Rabbit platelets pretreated with platelet activating factor (PAF) became refractory to further stimulation by PAF. The effect was specific for PAF. In this study, the alteration in the specific agonist binding to PAF receptor in platelets following desensitization was investigated. As revealed by the Scatchard analysis of radioligand binding data, the affinity for specific PAF binding to desensitized platelet membranes was substantially lowered as compared with that to control platelet membranes. Guanine nucleotide triphosphate, which was shown to decrease the affinity of specific PAF binding to platelet membranes, had less effect on the PAF binding affinity to the desensitized preparation. In platelets pretreated with phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate, the binding affinity of PAF receptor remained unaltered. Pretreatment of platelets with 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine, a protein kinase C inhibitor, or neomycin, an inhibitor of the polyphosphoinositide breakdown, failed to prevent the reduction of specific PAF binding affinity following subsequent exposure to PAF. These results suggest that the agonist-induced desensitization of PAF receptor in rabbit platelets is independent of activation of protein kinase C.

Abstract
The influence of highly phosphorylated inositol phosphates on the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase enriched from the soluble fraction of pig brain was tested, using [5-32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 as substrate. Both Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 were very potent inhibitors of the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase. The Ki values were approximately 60 nM and approximately 3 nM for Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 respectively. Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 also inhibited the Ins(1,4,5)P3/Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatase. Using Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 as substrate, the Ki values were about 35 microM and 15 microM for Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 respectively. The concentrations which led to a 50% inhibition of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (0.5 microM) degradation by the 5-phosphatase were about 20 and 10 microM for the pentakis- and hexakis-phosphate respectively. As the intracellular concentrations of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 are high (up to 60 microM) compared with those of the inositol trisphosphates and tetrakisphosphates, it is possible that the highly phosphorylated inositol phosphates act as regulators in the metabolism of Ca(2+)-mobilizing inositol phosphates.

Abstract
1. In electroporated L1210 cells, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 causes Ca2+ release, owing to its conversion into Ins(1,4,5)P3, but this does not happen in cells permeabilized by digitonin treatment [Cullen, Irvine, Drøbak & Dawson (1989) Biochem. J. 259, 931-933]. 2. If the assay medium is subjected to electroporation by using a commercially available electroporation apparatus and then the cells are added and permeabilized with digitonin, the cells behave as if they had been electroporated. 3. Electroporation causes the release of high concentrations of Al3+ into the experimental medium, and addition of these concentrations of Al3+ into the experimental medium mimics the effect of electroporation on the conversion of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 into Ins(1,4,5)P3. 4. It is concluded that the difference between electroporated and digitonin-permeabilized L1210 cells in this experimental system can be attributed to dissolution of Al3+ from the electroporation cuvette. Al3+ contamination may thus be a serious problem when using this apparatus.

Abstract
Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4] analogues were synthesized and their effects on [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatase, [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3] 5-phosphatase activities were examined. The Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 analogue with the aminobenzoyl group at the 2-position of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 inhibited the hydrolysis of 5-phosphate of [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 catalysed by erythrocyte ghosts, with a lower Ki value than seen with Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, whereas the analogue with the aminocyclohexanecarbonyl group at the same position had a higher Ki value. The Ins(1,4,5)P3 analogues that we had previously synthesized were also capable of inhibiting this process, with the same tendency as Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 analogues. Such differences in the potency among Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5)P3 analogues were applicable to other phosphatase activities, namely [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase and [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase. These results suggest that the active sites of these enzymes may catalyse the dephosphorylation in a similar fashion.

Abstract
We report that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 releases calcium from intracellular stores of intact Xenopus laevis oocytes, as indicated by two different techniques, Ca2(+)-sensitive microelectrodes and a fura-2 imaging system. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 releases only 20% as much Ca2+ as the same amount of Ins(1,4,5)P3. This effect is not due to the conversion of the injected Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to Ins(1,4,5)P3, which is known to release Ca2+, because the amount of [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 that is converted to Ins(1,4,5)P3 is extremely small, as determined using HPLC. Examination of the different current patterns induced by Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, when injected into voltage-clamped oocytes, provided further evidence that the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was not being converted back to Ins(1,4,5)P3. We investigated the effects of four compounds, three inositol trisphosphates (Ins(1,4,5)P3, Ins(2,4,5)P3, and Ins(1,3,4)P3), and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, on Cl- current conductance in order to examine (1) the possible role of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in cell activation and (2) the relationships between intracellular Ca2+ and the activation of Cl- currents. Immature stage VI Xenopus laevis oocytes were voltage-clamped and injected with Ins(1,4,5)P3, Ins(2,4,5)P3, and Ins(1,3,4)P3. Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(2,4,5)P3 triggered Ca2(+)-dependent Cl- currents, but Ins(1,3,4)P3 did not trigger currents nor did it release intracellular Ca2+. Ins(2,4,5)P3 was fourfold less effective at inducing the immediate Cl- current pulse than Ins(1,4,5)P3. The Cl- current pattern was quite dependent on the amount of Ins(1,4,5)P3 injected into the oocyte. Low amounts of Ins(1,4,5)P3 triggered only an immediate single Cl- current pulse, whereas large amounts triggered the immediate single pulse, followed by a quiescent period, followed by oscillating Cl- currents. In contrast to the response of Ins(1,4,5)P3, injection of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 triggered only oscillating Cl- currents whose magnitude, but not pattern, was dependent on the amount injected into the cell. The currents generated by Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 resemble the oscillating Cl- currents triggered by large amounts of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(2,4,5)P3. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, unlike Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(2,4,5)P3, rarely caused an immediate Cl- current pulse, but caused an immediate release of calcium. Therefore, we suggest that the oscillating currents are only indirectly dependent on calcium. These [Ca2+]i and conductance measurements suggest that both Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 have roles in intracellular Ca2+ regulation.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of membrane phosphoinositides is widely recognized as an important signal transduction pathway in brain. One of the products of phosphoinositide hydrolysis, Ins(1,4,5)P3, is thought to participate in signal transduction by mobilizing intracellular calcium and it is now clear that Ins(1,4,5)P3 metabolism is a complicated process that may be highly regulated. In addition to being dephosphorylated by the action of a 5-phosphatase, Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be phosphorylated by a 3-kinase to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Although the physiological significance of the higher inositol polyphosphates is not clear, recent evidence suggests that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 may also have important second messenger function. Since ethanol is known to have potent effects on synaptic transmission, we investigated the in vitro effects of ethanol on [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 metabolism by rat whole brain homogenates. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was rapidly hydrolyzed to Ins(1,3,4)P3, inositol bisphosphates [Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins(1,3)P2], inositol monophosphates [Ins(1)P/Ins(3)P and Ins(4)P], and to inositol by sequential dephosphorylation. No [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 was detected. Ethanol (500 mM), significantly accelerated the dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, resulting in a more rapid formation of inositol bisphosphates, monophosphates and inositol. However, intoxicating and sedative-hypnotic concentrations of ethanol (30-100 mM) had no effect upon Ins(1,3,4)P3 dephosphorylation, suggesting that pharmacologically relevant concentrations of ethanol do not directly effect the enzymes involved in the dephosphorylation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to free inositol in brain.

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
Leukotriene C4 (LTC4), one of the major constituents of the slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis, induced a dose-dependent hydrolysis of phosphoinositides in [3H]inositol-prelabeled rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-1) cells. The EC50 for LTC4 to elicit the half maximum accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates (IPs) was around 20 nM. The increase in the formation of [3H]inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and [3H]inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was detectable at 2 min after the stimulation and progressed up to 30 min. Accumulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate (IP1) was observed only during the late phase of 5-30 min in the presence of LiCl. When cells were stimulated with LTC4 and LTD4 together, there was no additive accumulation in [3H]IPs. Pretreatment of cells with either LTC4 or LTD4 resulted in a decrease in production of [3H]IPs on further stimulation with the same agonist. The desensitization appeared to be heterologous since pretreatment of cells with LTC4 attenuated the responsiveness to LTD4. Conversely, pretreatment with LTD4 also diminished the responsiveness to LTC4 markedly. These results suggest that both LTC4- and LTD4-induced hydrolysis of phosphoinositides are mediated through the same effector in RBL-1 cells.

Abstract
L1210 lymphoma cells were permeabilized with digitonin, and the ability of Ins(2,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ was studied. At high doses of Ins(2,4,5)P3 Ca2+ was rapidly released from intracellular stores, and prior or subsequent addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 had no discernible effect. However, the Ca2(+)-mobilizing action of low (threshold or just above) concentrations of Ins(2,4,5)P3 was markedly enhanced by Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, which alone caused no mobilization of Ca2+; this phenomenon was shown not to be due to protection of Ins(2,4,5)P3 by the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 against hydrolysis. The ability of the pre-addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to enhance subsequent Ins(2,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ mobilization was always seen whether or not the free Ca2+ concentration was low (pCa = 7) or high (pCa = 6). However, at low Ca2+, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 could cause a further mobilization if added after the Ins(2,4,5)P3, whereas at higher Ca2+ values Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was only able to affect Ca2+ if added before Ins(2,4,5)P3. These effects of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 were not, at the same concentration, mimicked by a random mixture of InsP4 isomers obtained by partial acid hydrolysis of phytic acid, by Ins(1,3,4)P3 or by Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, and they were shown not to be due to enzymic generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 by (a) the absence of any detectable production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 if radiolabelled Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was used, or (b) the observation that Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 could mimic Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 provided that higher doses were used; this inositol phosphate, when added radiolabelled, yielded only trace quantities of D/L-Ins(1,4,5,6)P4, which itself does not mobilize Ca2+. We interpret these results overall to mean that in these cells there is a small proportion of the Ins(2,4,5)P3-mobilizable Ca2+ pools which can only be mobilized in the presence of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 [or at the least, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 can help Ins(2,4,5)P3 to gain access to them]. The significance of this conclusion is discussed in the light of current concepts of the second messenger function of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

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

Abstract
We have previously shown that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 is degraded to Ins(1,4,5)P3 by a soluble Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase from pig brain [Höer, Kwiatkowski, Seib, Rosenthal, Schultz & Oberdisse (1988) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 154, 668-675]. Here we present some properties of this enzyme using [5-32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 as substrate. The molecular mass, estimated by gel filtration chromatography on a Superose 6 column, was determined to be 36 kDa. The 3-phosphatase showed a high affinity towards the substrate Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (Km approximately 400 nM); the Vmax. of the freshly prepared enzyme was 2 nmol/min per mg of protein. The influence of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4)P3, the reaction products of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 hydrolysis by either 3- or 5-phosphatase respectively, on the 3-phosphatase was tested. Both isomers inhibited the enzyme, with Ki values of about 2 microM and 1.75 microM for Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(1,4,5)P3 respectively. Enzyme activity was not influenced by Mg2+ up to 30 mM or Ca2+ up to 1 mM. Commercially available Ins(3,4,5,6)P4 from turkey erythrocytes produced a marked inhibition of the 3-phosphatase (Ki approximately 500 nM). Significant inhibitory effects on enzyme activity were also found with GTP and the pyrimidine nucleotides UTP and CTP. The kinetic data presented here suggest that the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase may be regulated by the intracellular concentrations of inositol tris- and tetrakis-phosphates.

Abstract
In bovine adrenal microsomes, Ins(1,4,5)P3 binds to a specific high-affinity receptor site (Kd = 11 nM) with low affinity for two other InsP3 isomers, Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(2,4,5)P3. In the same subcellular fractions Ins(1,4,5)P3 was also the most potent stimulus of Ca2+ release of all the inositol phosphates tested. Of the many inositol phosphates recently identified in angiotensin-II-stimulated adrenal glomerulosa and other cells, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 has been implicated as an additional second messenger that may act in conjunction with Ins(1,4,5)P3 to elicit Ca2+ mobilization. In the present study, an independent action of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was observed in bovine adrenal microsomes. Heparin, a sulphated polysaccharide which binds to Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors in several tissues, inhibited both the binding of radiolabelled Ins(1,4,5)P3 and its Ca2(+)-releasing activity in adrenal microsomes. In contrast, heparin did not inhibit the mobilization of Ca2+ by Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, even at doses that abolished the Ins(1,4,5)P3 response. Such differential inhibition of the Ins(1,4,5)P3- and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-induced Ca2+ responses by heparin indicates that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 stimulates the release of Ca2+ from a discrete intracellular store, and exerts this action via a specific receptor site that is distinct from the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor.

Abstract
The metabolism of biologically active inositol phosphates in developed ovarian follicles from Xenopus laevis was investigated. Techniques used were microinjection of tracer into the intact oocyte coupled by gap junctions to follicle cells, as well as addition of tracer to homogenates of ovarian follicles and to homogenates of oocytes stripped of outer follicle-cell layers. Metabolism was similar to that previously described for other types of cell and tissue, with several unusual features. Homogenates of ovarian follicles were shown to contain an apparent 3'-phosphomonoesterase capable of converting [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 predominantly into a substance with h.p.l.c. elution characteristics of Ins(1,4,5)P3. In intact ovarian follicles, little Ins(1,4,5)P3 was formed but the esterase was activated by the phorbol ester activator of protein kinase C, PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate; 60 nM), as well as by acetylcholine (200 microM). In follicle homogenates, this enzyme also appeared to be active in converting [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 into a substance eluting as Ins(1,4)P2. The apparent 3'-phosphomonoesterase activity was not inhibited by intracellular (or higher) levels of Mg2+. Although PMA activated this enzyme in intact oocytes relative to 5'-phosphomonoesterase activation, it did not enhance overall metabolism, in contrast with reports on other tissues. Compared with the processing of inositol phosphates injected into the intact follicle, homogenization in simulated intracellular medium appeared to alter the activity and/or accessibility of several enzymes. The metabolism of inositol phosphates appears to occur predominantly in the follicle cells surrounding the oocyte, as collagenase treatment followed by defolliculation greatly diminished the rates of metabolism of several inositol phosphates. The presence in Xenopus ovarian follicles of a 3'-phosphomonoesterase activated by protein kinase C in addition to the well-known 3'-kinase suggests that, by forming a reversible interconversion between Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, this tissue may have the potential to prolong stimulatory signals on binding of appropriate agonists to receptors.

Abstract
When Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was incubated with a rat liver 100,000 g supernatant, about 93% of the substrate was metabolized by a 5-phosphatase, and only 7% by a 3-phosphatase. Ion-exchange chromatography of the supernatant specifically increased its 3-phosphatase activity 72 +/- 3-fold. This activated enzyme was inhibited by a heat-stable factor present in both the soluble and particulate portions of the cell.

Abstract
A kinetic analysis was undertaken of the inhibition by 5 mM MgATP of Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase in 100,000 g particulate fractions prepared from liver homogenates. The Km for Ins(1,4,5)P3 was increased by 44% (from 16 to 23 microM). The competitive nature of the inhibition was confirmed with a Dixon plot. The effect of MgATP on 5-phosphatase was also studied at physiological concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (i.e. 1.5 microM); the rate of substrate hydrolysis was inhibited by over 30%. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was also hydrolysed by a 3-phosphatase, but this enzyme was unaffected by 5 mM MgATP. Thus, ATP, by differentially affecting Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3- and 5-phosphatase, may increase the flux through the futile cycle that interconverts Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase pp60v-src, encoded by the v-src oncogene, seems to regulate phosphatidylinositol metabolism. The effect of pp60v-src on control points in inositol phosphate production was examined by measuring the amounts of inositol polyphosphates in Rat-1 cells expressing wild-type or mutant forms of the protein. Expression of v-src-resulted in a five- to sevenfold elevation in the steady-state amount of an isomer of inositol tetrakisphosphate, whereas the concentrations of inositol trisphosphates or other inositol tetrakisphosphates were not affected. The activity of a key enzyme in the formation of inositol tetrakisphosphates, inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate 3-kinase, was increased six- to eightfold in cytosolic extracts prepared from the v-src-transformed cells, suggesting that this enzyme may be one target for the pp60v-src kinase and that it may participate in the synthesis of novel, higher order inositol phosphates.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of inositol lipids triggered by the occupation of cell surface receptors generates several intracellular messengers. Many different inositol phosphate isomers accumulate in stimulated cells. Of these D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins 1,4,5-P3) is responsible for discharging Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Specific membrane binding sites for Ins 1,4,5-P3 have been detected. The properties of these sites and their possible relationship to the calcium release process is reviewed. Ins 1,4,5-P3 binding sites may be present in discrete subcellular structures ("calciosomes"). Kinetic and some electrophysiological evidence indicates that Ins 1,4,5-P3 acts to open a Ca2+ channel. Recent progress on the purification of the receptor from neuronal tissues is summarized. Phosphorylation of Ins 1,4,5-P3 by a specific kinase results in the production of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetraphosphate (Ins 1,3,4,5-P4). This inositol phosphate has been reported to increase the entry of Ca2+ across the plasma membrane, activate nonspecific ion channels in the plasma membrane, alter the Ca2+ content of the Ins 1,4,5-P3-releasable store, and bind to and alter the activity of certain enzymes. These data and the possible biological significance of Ins 1,3,4,5-P4 are discussed.

Abstract
A novel method to separate [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 in tissue extracts is described. It is based on the selective metabolism of Ins(1,3,4)P3 by a crude cerebral supernatant in a Mg2+-free buffer followed by separation of [3H]inositol trisphosphates using conventional anion-exchange chromatography. Evaluation of the assay was performed using [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 standards and tissue extracts containing different proportions of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3. Parallel h.p.l.c. separations of extracts established the selective and complete metabolism of [3H]Ins(1,3,4)P3 under the above conditions and demonstrated that the enzymic method provides an accurate estimate of the trisphosphate isomers in rat cerebral cortex, parotid gland and bovine tracheal smooth muscle.

Abstract
Addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 at micromolar concentrations causes release of Ca2+ from electroporated L1210 cells, but not from digitonin-permeabilized cells. This was shown to be due to its conversion into Ins(1,4,5)P3, because only the electroporated cells convert Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 into Ins(1,4,5)P3. Thus electroporation appears to activate or expose an Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase.

Abstract
Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphates (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4), 32P-labelled in positions 4 and 5 were prepared enzymatically, using [4-32P]-phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdInsP) and [5-32P]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) as substrates, respectively. Degradation studies of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, using an enriched phosphatase preparation from porcine brain cytosol, led to the formation of two inositol trisphosphate isomers which were identified as inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3). This novel degradation pathway of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 provides an additional source for the generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, involving a 3-phosphatase.
