Abstract
γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system, and exerts its actions via both ionotropic (GABA(A)) and metabotropic (GABA(B)) receptors. Although the functional expression of GABA(B) receptors coupled to the G(i) protein was reported for airway smooth muscle, the role of GABA(B) receptors in airway responsiveness remains unclear. We investigated whether G(i)-coupled GABA(B) receptors cross-regulate phospholipase C (PLC), an enzyme classically regulated by G(q)-coupled receptors in human airway smooth muscle cells. Both the GABA(B)-selective agonist baclofen and the endogenous ligand GABA significantly increased the synthesis of inositol phosphate, whereas GABA(A) receptor agonists, muscimol, and 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[5,4-c]pyridin-3-ol exerted no effect. The baclofen-induced synthesis of inositol phosphate and transient increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were blocked by CGP35348 and CGP55845 (selective GABA(B) antagonists), pertussis toxin (PTX, which inactivates the G(i) protein), gallein (a G(βγ) signaling inhibitor), U73122 (an inhibitor of PLC-β), and xestospongin C, an inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor blocker. Baclofen also potentiated the bradykinin-induced synthesis of inositol phosphate and transient increases in [Ca(2+)](i), which were blocked by CGP35348 or PTX. Moreover, baclofen potentiated the substance P-induced contraction of airway smooth muscle in isolated guinea pig tracheal rings. In conclusion, the stimulation of GABA(B) receptors in human airway smooth muscle cells rapidly mobilizes intracellular Ca(2+) stores by the synthesis of inositol phosphate via the activation of PLC-β, which is stimulated by G(βγ) protein liberated from G(i) proteins coupled to GABA(B) receptors. Furthermore, crosstalk between GABA(B) receptors and G(q)-coupled receptors potentiates the synthesis of inositol phosphate, transient increases in [Ca(2+)](i), and smooth muscle contraction through G(i) proteins.

Abstract
In the presence of arginine vasopressin (AVP), somatostatin increases [Ca(2+)](i), leading to a transient increase in insulin release from clonal beta cells HIT-T15 via G(i/o) and phospholipase C (PLC) pathway (Cheng et al., 2002a). The present study was to elucidate the mechanisms underlying somatostatin-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increase in the presence of AVP. We found that the effect of somatostatin was mediated by betagamma subunits but not by the alpha subunit of G(i/o). Because somatostatin alone failed to increase [Ca(2+)](i), we hypothesized that somatostatin increases phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) synthesis, providing extra substrate for preactivated PLC-beta to generate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)). Somatostatin alone did not increase IP(3) levels, but AVP + somatostatin did. Somatostatin increased PIP(2) levels but decreased phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate levels. We further hypothesized that PLD mediates somatostatin-induced changes in PIP(2) levels. Both the phospholipase D (PLD) inhibitors and antibody versus PLD1 antagonized AVP-somatostatin-induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i). PLD inhibitor also antagonized somatostatin-induced increase in PIP(2) levels. In addition, somatostatin increased PLD activity. These results suggest that activation of somatostatin receptors that are coupled to the betagamma dimer of G(i/o) led to PLD1 activation, thus promoting the synthesis of phosphatidic acid. Phosphatidic acid activates PIP-5 kinase, which evokes an increase in PIP(2) synthesis. The PIP(2) generated by somatostatin administration increases substrate for preactivated phospholipase C-beta, which hydrolyzes PIP(2) to form IP(3), leading to an increase in [Ca(2+)](i). The regulation of PIP(2) synthesis by G(i/o)-coupled receptors via PLD activation represents a novel signaling mechanism for somatostatin and a novel concept in the cross-talk between G(q)- and G(i/o)-coupled receptors in beta cells.

Abstract
Alteration in [Ca(2+)](i) (the intracellular concentration of Ca(2+)) is a key regulator of many cellular processes. To allow precise regulation of [Ca(2+)](i) and a diversity of signalling by this ion, cells possess many mechanisms by which they are able to control [Ca(2+)](i) both globally and at the subcellular level. Among these are many members of the superfamily of GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors), which are characterized by the presence of seven transmembrane domains. Typically, those receptors able to activate PLC (phospholipase C) enzymes cause release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores and influence Ca(2+) entry across the plasma membrane. It has been well documented that Ca(2+) signalling by one type of GPCR can be influenced by stimulation of a different type of GPCR. Indeed, many studies have demonstrated heterologous desensitization between two different PLC-coupled GPCRs. This is not surprising, given our current understanding of negative-feedback regulation and the likely shared components of the signalling pathway. However, there are also many documented examples of interactions between GPCRs, often coupling preferentially to different signalling pathways, which result in a potentiation of Ca(2+) signalling. Such interactions have important implications for both the control of cell function and the interpretation of in vitro cell-based assays. However, there is currently no single mechanism that adequately accounts for all examples of this type of cross-talk. Indeed, many studies either have not addressed this issue or have been unable to determine the mechanism(s) involved. This review seeks to explore a range of possible mechanisms to convey their potential diversity and to provide a basis for further experimental investigation.

Abstract
The tubuloglomerular feedback response, the change in afferent arteriolar tone caused by a change in NaCl concentration at the macula densa, is likely initiated by the generation of a vasoactive mediator within the confines of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. Substantial progress has been made in identifying the nature of this mediator and the factors that modulate its effect on vascular tone. In support of earlier studies using P1 purinergic antagonists, the application of the knockout technique has shown that adenosine 1 receptors are absolutely required for eliciting TGF responses. The background level of angiotensin II appears to be an important cofactor determining the efficiency of A1AR-induced vasoconstriction, probably through a synergistic interaction at the level of the G protein-dependent transduction mechanism. The source of the adenosine is still unclear, but it is conceivable that adenosine is generated extracellularly from released ATP through a cascade of ecto-nucleotidases. There is also evidence that ATP may activate P2 receptors in preglomerular vessels, which may contribute to autoregulation of renal vascular resistance. Nitric oxide (NO), generated by the neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase in macula densa cells, reduces the constrictor effect of adenosine, but the regulation of NO release and its exact role in states of TGF-induced hyperfiltration are still unclear.

Abstract
Acetylcholine (ACh), the major parasympathetic neurotransmitter, is released by intrapancreatic nerve endings during the preabsorptive and absorptive phases of feeding. In beta-cells, ACh binds to muscarinic M(3) receptors and exerts complex effects, which culminate in an increase of glucose (nutrient)-induced insulin secretion. Activation of PLC generates diacylglycerol. Activation of PLA(2) produces arachidonic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine. These phospholipid-derived messengers, particularly diacylglycerol, activate PKC, thereby increasing the efficiency of free cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](c)) on exocytosis of insulin granules. IP3, also produced by PLC, causes a rapid elevation of [Ca(2+)](c) by mobilizing Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum; the resulting fall in Ca(2+) in the organelle produces a small capacitative Ca(2+) entry. ACh also depolarizes the plasma membrane of beta-cells by a Na(+)- dependent mechanism. When the plasma membrane is already depolarized by secretagogues such as glucose, this additional depolarization induces a sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](c). Surprisingly, ACh can also inhibit voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels and stimulate Ca(2+) efflux when [Ca(2+)](c) is elevated. However, under physiological conditions, the net effect of ACh on [Ca(2+)](c) is always positive. The insulinotropic effect of ACh results from two mechanisms: one involves a rise in [Ca(2+)](c) and the other involves a marked, PKC-mediated increase in the efficiency of Ca(2+) on exocytosis. The paper also discusses the mechanisms explaining the glucose dependence of the effects of ACh on insulin release.

Abstract
Activation of Galpha(i)-coupled receptors often causes enhancement of the inositol phosphate signal triggered by Galpha(q)-coupled receptors. To investigate the mechanism of this synergistic receptor crosstalk, we studied the Galpha(i)-coupled adenosine A(1) and alpha(2C) adrenergic receptors and the Galpha(q)-coupled bradykinin B(2) and a UTP-preferring P2Y receptor. Stimulation of either Galpha(i)-coupled receptor expressed in COS cells increased the potency and the efficacy of inositol phosphate production by bradykinin or UTP. Likewise, overexpression of Gbeta(1)gamma(2) resulted in a similar increase in potency and efficacy of bradykinin or UTP. In contrast, these stimuli did not affect the potency of direct activators of Galpha(q); a truncated Gbeta(3) mutant had no effect on the receptor-generated signals whereas signals generated at the G-protein level were still enhanced. This suggests that the Gbetagamma-mediated signal enhancement occurs at the receptor level. Almost all possible combinations of Gbeta(1-3) with Ggamma(2-7) were equally effective in enhancing the signals of the B(2) and a UTP-preferring P2Y receptor, indicating a very broad specificity of this synergism. The enhancement of the bradykinin signal by (i) Galpha(i)-activating receptor ligands or (ii) cotransfection of Gbetagamma was suppressed when the B(2) receptor was replaced by a B(2)Gbeta(2) fusion protein. Gbetagamma enhanced the B(2) receptor-stimulated activation of G-proteins as determined by GTPgammaS-induced decrease in high affinity agonist binding and by B(2) receptor-enhanced [(35)S]GTPgammaS binding. These findings support the concept that Gbetagamma exchange between Galpha(i)- and Galpha(q)-coupled receptors mediates this type of receptor crosstalk.

Abstract
In transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-A1) cells the human adenosine A1 receptor directly stimulates pertussis toxin-sensitive increases in inositol phosphate production and potentiates (synergistically) the inositol phosphate responses mediated by Gq-coupled P2Y2 purinoceptor and CCK(A) receptors. In the present study we have investigated the role of Gbetagamma subunits in mediating adenosine A1 receptor effects on phospholipase C activation (both direct and synergistic) by transiently transfecting CHO-A1 cells with a scavenger of Gbetagamma subunits: the C-terminus of beta-adrenoceptor kinase 1 (beta ark1 residues 495-689). [3H]inositol phosphate responses to the selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA; 1 microM) were inhibited (41 +/- 1%) in CHO-A1 cells transiently transfected with the Gbetagamma scavenger, beta ark1 (495-689). Expression of beta ark1 (495-689) protein was confirmed by Western blotting. In contrast, adenosine A1 receptor-mediated inhibition of forskolin stimulated [3H]cyclic AMP accumulation was unaffected by transient expression of beta ark1 (495-689). Beta ark1 (495-689) expression had no significant effect on the [3H]inositol phosphate responses produced by activation of the endogenous P2Y2 purinoceptor (100 microM UTP; 92 +/- 0.8% of control). [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation in response to adenosine A receptor activation was also attenuated in CHO-K1 cells co-transfected with the beta ark1 (495-689) minigene (59 +/- 4% inhibition of control response to 1 microM CPA). Finally, transient expression of beta ark1 (495-689) in CHO-A1 cells inhibited the augmentation of [3H]inositol phosphate responses resulting from co-activation of adenosine A1 receptors and P2Y2 purinoceptors. These experiments indicate that Gbetagamma subunits are involved in the direct coupling the adenosine A1 receptor to phospholipase C and that they also participate in the augmentation of P2Y2 purinoceptor-mediated [3H]inositol phosphate responses by the adenosine A1 receptor.

Abstract
Adenosine A1 receptors induce an inhibition of adenylyl cyclase via G-proteins of the Gi/o family. In addition, simultaneous stimulation of A1 receptors and of receptor-mediated activation of phospholipase C (PLC) results in a synergistic potentiation of PLC activity. Evidence has accumulated that Gbetagamma subunits mediate this potentiating effect. However, an A1 receptor-mediated increase in extracellular glutamate was suggested to be responsible for the potentiating effect in mouse astrocyte cultures. We have investigated the synergistic activation of PLC by adenosine A1 and alpha1 adrenergic receptors in primary cultures of astrocytes derived from different regions of the newborn rat brain. It is reported here that (1) adenosine A1 receptor mRNA as well as receptor protein is present in astrocytes from all brain regions, (2) A1 receptor-mediated inhibition of adenylyl cyclase is of similar extent in all astrocyte cultures, (3) the A1 receptor-mediated potentiation of PLC activity requires higher concentrations of agonist than adenylyl cyclase inhibition and is dependent on the expression level of A1 receptor, and (4) the potentiating effect on PLC activity is unrelated to extracellular glutamate. Taken together, our data support the notion that betagamma subunits are the relevant signal transducers for A1 receptor-mediated PLC activation in rat astrocytes. Because of the lower affinity of betagamma, as compared with alpha subunits, more betagamma subunits are required for PLC activation. Therefore, only in cultures with higher levels of adenosine A1 receptors is the release of betagamma subunits via Gi/o activation sufficient to stimulate PLC. It is concluded that variation of the expression level of adenosine A1 receptors may be an important regulatory mechanism to control PLC activation via this receptor.

Abstract
The effect of Gi coupled receptor activation (adenosine A1 and 5-HT1B receptors) on cholecystokinin receptor-stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation has been investigated in Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with the human adenosine A1 receptor cDNA (CHO-A1). CHO cells constitutively express the 5-HT1B receptor [Berg, Clarke, Sailstad, Saltzman and Maayani (1994) Mol. Pharmacol. 46, 477-484]. Our previous studies using CHO-A1 cells have revealed that both the adenosine A1 and 5-HT1B receptor are negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase activity and stimulate increases in [Ca2+]i, through a pertussis toxin-sensitive pathway. In the present study the selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine stimulated a pertussis toxin-sensitive increase in total [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation. The sulphated C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK-8) stimulated a robust and pertussis toxin-insensitive increase in [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation through the activation of CCKA receptors. Co-stimulation of CHO-A1 cells with N6-cyclopentyladenosine and CCK-8 produced a synergistic increase in [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation. The synergistic interaction between N6-cyclopentyladenosine and CCK-8 was abolished in pertussis toxin-treated cells. Synergy between N6-cyclopentyladenosine and CCK-8 still occurred in the absence of extracellular calcium. The 5-HT1B receptor agonist 5-carboxyamidotryptamine did not stimulate a measurable increase in [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation. Furthermore, 5-carboxyamidotryptamine had no significant effect on CCK-8 mediated [3H]inositol phosphate production. Activation of endogenous P2U receptors (Gq/Gll coupled) with ATP gamma S produced a significant increase in [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation. Co-stimulation of CHO-A1 cells with ATP gamma S and CCK-8 produced additive increases in [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation. These data indicate that CHO-A1 cells may prove a useful model system in which to investigate further the mechanisms underlying the intracellular 'cross-talk' between phospholipase C coupled receptors (Gq/Gll linked) and Gi/Go coupled receptors.

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

Abstract
In a previous study it was found that the expression of the exogenous fMet-Leu-Phe-receptor (NFPR) in the insulin-secreting cell line RINm5F mediates inhibition of hormone release and additionally raises cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) by activating phospholipase C (PLC) in a pertussis-toxin (PTX)-sensitive manner. We investigated whether an endogenous receptor could elicit similar effects and examined the interaction with PTX-insensitive signalling pathways. The hormone galanin inhibited insulin release at subnanomolar concentrations and increased [Ca2+]i, mainly by a PTX-sensitive mechanism with an EC50 (50 nM) comparable with that for hyperpolarization of membrane potential. The effect of galanin or fMet-Leu-Phe on [Ca2+]i was inhibited by pre-activation of the P2-receptor by ATP, which mobilizes calcium in a PTX-insensitive fashion. Simultaneous activation of the P2- and peptide receptors caused additive increases in [Ca2+]i saturating at a calcium concentration corresponding to the optimal ATP response. This suggests a specific convergence of PTX-sensitive and -insensitive pathways. In contrast, galanin and FMLP inhibited the insulin secretion induced by ATP (1-100 microM), but only when added prior to the nucleotide. In permeabilized cells, FMLP added after the calcium stimulus still inhibited secretion, indicating that the inefficacy observed in intact cells was not due to the rapid ATP-evoked rise in [Ca2+]i. Thus, (i) insulin-secreting cells possess an endogenous PTX-sensitive pathway mobilizing [Ca2+]i, (ii) inhibitory hormones preferentially activate different effectors depending on the agonist concentration and (iii) activation of NFPR or galanin receptor reveals an unusual dissociation between [Ca2+]i rises and insulin secretion, pointing towards an overriding inhibitory control of exocytosis.

Abstract
The interactions or "cross-talk" between adenosine A1-receptors and receptors coupled to phospholipase C (leading to the hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids) have been well documented in the literature. For example, activating the A1-receptor selectively potentiates the histamine H1-receptor stimulated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids in guinea-pig cerebral slices. In contrast, when the adenosine receptor is activated in the cerebral cortex of mouse or man the histamine response is selectively inhibited. Our studies have focused on the smooth muscle cell line, DDT1 MF-2, derived from hamster vas deferens. These cells express A1-receptors which, in addition to the expected negative coupling to adenylate cyclase, also stimulate inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and Ca2+ mobilization. These A1-receptors also potentiate histamine H1-receptor responses, i.e. inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and Ca2+ mobilization. The mechanism(s) underlying the potentiation or inhibition of histamine H1-receptor responses by the adenosine A1-receptor remain to be unravelled. One mechanism may involve intracellular "cross-talk" at the G-protein level. This review will discuss how beta gamma subunits from G(i) proteins could be involved in augmenting responses to calcium mobilizing receptors.

Abstract
A study was made of the initial responses of perfusate Ca2+ fluxes and bile flow to Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonists, following refinements to the methods for analysing these parameters in the perfused rat liver. Net Ca2+ efflux induced by vasopressin commences at 15 s, reaches a maximal rate at 35 s and declines to zero by 55 s, when Ca2+ influx commences. Vasopressin-induced increases in bile flow commence by 20 s, attain a maximal rate by 35 s and begin to decline at 50 s, to reach basal values by 90 s. Concomitant administration of glucagon modifies each of these actions of vasopressin in the following ways: it decreases by 5 s the time of onset of net Ca2+ efflux, and the time and magnitude of such efflux, and the time of onset of bile flow is decreased to 15 s, and the flow reaches maximal rates by 30 s. When the alpha 1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine is used in place of vasopressin, Ca2+ efflux commences at 17-18 s and is greater in magnitude; little bile flow is induced by this agonist. Glucagon modifies the action of phenylephrine in the following ways: the onset of Ca2+ efflux is brought forward by 2-3 s, it is of lower magnitude and Ca2+ influx begins by 45 s; bile flow commences by 15-20 s, and reaches a maximum at 30 s, where the rate is much greater than in the absence of glucagon; this rate gradually declines to be near basal by 80 s. The onset of agonist-induced oxygen uptake was also brought forward by the co-administration of glucagon. Comparison of agonist-induced plasma-membrane Ca2+ fluxes and bile flow (with or without glucagon administration) suggests that correlations can be made between net Ca2+ fluxes and the transient increases seen in bile flow.
