Abstract
Regulation of blood pressure by angiotensin II (ANG II) is a process that involves the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium. We have shown that ANG-II type 1 receptor (AT1R) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) type 1 receptors (EP1R) are required in the subfornical organ (SFO) for ROS-mediated hypertension induced by slow-pressor ANG-II infusion. However, the signaling pathway associated with this process remains unclear. We sought to determine mechanisms underlying the ANG II-induced ROS and calcium influx in mouse SFO cells. Ultrastructural studies showed that cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) codistributes with AT1R in the SFO, indicating spatial proximity. Functional studies using SFO cells revealed that ANG II potentiated PGE2 release, an effect dependent on AT1R, phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and COX-1. Furthermore, both ANG II and PGE2 increased ROS formation. While the increase in ROS initiated by ANG II, but not PGE2, required the activation of the AT1R/PLA2/COX-1 pathway, both ANG II and PGE2 were dependent on EP1R and Nox2 as downstream effectors. Finally, ANG II potentiated voltage-gated L-type Ca(2+) currents in SFO neurons via the same signaling pathway required for PGE2 production. Blockade of EP1R and Nox2-derived ROS inhibited ANG II and PGE2-mediated Ca(2+) currents. We propose a mechanism whereby ANG II increases COX-1-derived PGE2 through the AT1R/PLA2 pathway, which promotes ROS production by EP1R/Nox2 signaling in the SFO. ANG II-induced ROS are coupled with Ca(2+) influx in SFO neurons, which may influence SFO-mediated sympathoexcitation. Our findings provide the first evidence of a spatial and functional framework that underlies ANG-II signaling in the SFO and reveal novel targets for antihypertensive therapies.

Abstract
Prostaglandin (PG) E(2) controls numerous physiological functions through a family of cognate G protein-coupled receptors (EP1-EP4). Targeting specific EP receptors might be therapeutically useful and reduce side effects associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors that block prostanoid synthesis. Systemic immune challenge and inflammatory cytokines have been shown to increase expression of the synthetic enzymes for PGE(2) in the adrenal gland. Catecholamines and other hormones, released from adrenal chromaffin cells in response to Ca(2+) influx through voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels, play central roles in homeostatic function and the coordinated stress response. However, long-term elevation of circulating catecholamines contributes to the pathogenesis of hypertension and heart failure. Here, we investigated the EP receptor(s) and cellular mechanisms by which PGE(2) might modulate chromaffin cell function. PGE(2) did not alter resting intracellular [Ca(2+)] or the peak amplitude of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor currents, but it did inhibit Ca(V)2 voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel currents (I(Ca)). This inhibition was voltage-dependent and mediated by pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, consistent with a direct Gβγ subunit-mediated mechanism common to other G(i/o)-coupled receptors. mRNA for all four EP receptors was detected, but using selective pharmacological tools and EP receptor knockout mice, we demonstrated that EP3 receptors mediate the inhibition of I(Ca). Finally, changes in membrane capacitance showed that Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis was reduced in parallel with I(Ca). To our knowledge, this is the first study of EP receptor signaling in mouse chromaffin cells and identifies a molecular mechanism for paracrine regulation of neuroendocrine function by PGE(2).

Abstract
COX-2 has been implicated in Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) latency and pathogenesis (A. George Paul, N. Sharma-Walia, N. Kerur, C. White, and B. Chandran, Cancer Res. 70:3697-3708, 2010; P. P. Naranatt, H. H. Krishnan, S. R. Svojanovsky, C. Bloomer, S. Mathur, and B. Chandran, Cancer Res. 64:72-84, 2004; N. Sharma-Walia, A. G. Paul, V. Bottero, S. Sadagopan, M. V. Veettil, N. Kerur, and B. Chandran, PLoS Pathog. 6:e1000777, 2010; N. Sharma-Walia, H. Raghu, S. Sadagopan, R. Sivakumar, M. V. Veettil, P. P. Naranatt, M. M. Smith, and B. Chandran, J. Virol. 80:6534-6552, 2006). However, the precise regulatory mechanisms involved in COX-2 induction during KSHV infection have never been explored. Here, we identified cis-acting elements involved in the transcriptional regulation of COX-2 upon KSHV de novo infection. Promoter analysis using human COX-2 promoter deletion and mutation reporter constructs revealed that nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) and the cyclic AMP (cAMP) response element (CRE) modulate KSHV-mediated transcriptional regulation of COX-2. Along with multiple KSHV-induced signaling pathways, infection-induced prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) also augmented COX-2 transcription. Infection of endothelial cells markedly induced COX-2 expression via a cyclosporine A-sensitive, calcineurin/NFAT-dependent pathway. KSHV infection increased intracellular cAMP levels and activated protein kinase A (PKA), which phosphorylated the CRE-binding protein (CREB) at serine 133, which probably led to interaction with CRE in the COX-2 promoter, thereby enhancing COX-2 transcription. PKA selective inhibitor H-89 pretreatment strongly inhibited CREB serine 133, indicating the involvement of a cAMP-PKA-CREB-CRE loop in COX-2 transcriptional regulation. In contrast to phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and protein kinase C, inhibition of FAK and Src effectively reduced KSHV infection-induced COX-2 transcription and protein levels. Collectively, our study indicates that mediation of COX-2 transcription upon KSHV infection is a paradigm of a complex regulatory milieu involving the interplay of multiple signal cascades and transcription factors. Intervention at each step of COX-2/PGE(2) induction can be used as a potential therapeutic target to treat KSHV-associated neoplasm and control inflammatory sequels of KSHV infection.

Abstract
In this study, we show the crucial roles of lipid signaling in long-term depression (LTD), that is, synaptic plasticity prevailing in cerebellar Purkinje cells. In mouse brain slices, we found that cPLA(2)alpha knockout blocked LTD induction, which was rescued by replenishing arachidonic acid (AA) or prostaglandin (PG) D(2) or E(2). Moreover, cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors block LTD, which is rescued by supplementing PGD(2)/E(2). The blockade or rescue occurs when these reagents are applied within a time window of 5-15 min following the onset of LTD-inducing stimulation. Furthermore, PGD(2)/E(2) facilitates the chemical induction of LTD by a PKC activator but is unable to rescue the LTD blocked by a PKC inhibitor. We conclude that PGD(2)/E(2) mediates LTD jointly with PKC, and suggest possible pathways for their interaction. Finally, we demonstrate in awake mice that cPLA(2)alpha deficiency or COX-2 inhibition attenuates short-term adaptation of optokinetic eye movements, supporting the view that LTD underlies motor learning.

Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), an enigmatic endothelial cell vascular neoplasm, is characterized by the proliferation of spindle shaped endothelial cells, inflammatory cytokines (ICs), growth factors (GFs) and angiogenic factors. KSHV is etiologically linked to KS and expresses its latent genes in KS lesion endothelial cells. Primary infection of human micro vascular endothelial cells (HMVEC-d) results in the establishment of latent infection and reprogramming of host genes, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is one of the highly up-regulated genes. Our previous study suggested a role for COX-2 in the establishment and maintenance of KSHV latency. Here, we examined the role of COX-2 in the induction of ICs, GFs, angiogenesis and invasive events occurring during KSHV de novo infection of endothelial cells. A significant amount of COX-2 was detected in KS tissue sections. Telomerase-immortalized human umbilical vein endothelial cells supporting KSHV stable latency (TIVE-LTC) expressed elevated levels of functional COX-2 and microsomal PGE2 synthase (m-PGES), and secreted the predominant eicosanoid inflammatory metabolite PGE2. Infected HMVEC-d and TIVE-LTC cells secreted a variety of ICs, GFs, angiogenic factors and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which were significantly abrogated by COX-2 inhibition either by chemical inhibitors or by siRNA. The ability of these factors to induce tube formation of uninfected endothelial cells was also inhibited. PGE2, secreted early during KSHV infection, profoundly increased the adhesion of uninfected endothelial cells to fibronectin by activating the small G protein Rac1. COX-2 inhibition considerably reduced KSHV latent ORF73 gene expression and survival of TIVE-LTC cells. Collectively, these studies underscore the pivotal role of KSHV induced COX-2/PGE2 in creating KS lesion like microenvironment during de novo infection. Since COX-2 plays multiple roles in KSHV latent gene expression, which themselves are powerful mediators of cytokine induction, anti-apoptosis, cell survival and viral genome maintainence, effective inhibition of COX-2 via well-characterized clinically approved COX-2 inhibitors could potentially be used in treatment to control latent KSHV infection and ameliorate KS. Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpes virus (KSHV), with a 160 kb DNA genome, has evolved with two distinct life cycle phases, namely latency and lytic replication. KS, a complex angioproliferative disease, is regulated by a balance between pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors. In our previous study, we showed that KSHV modulates host factors COX-2/PGE2 for its own advantage to promote its latent (persistent) infection. The premise that COX-2 is involved in growth and progression of several types of solid cancers and inflammation associated diseases has been well documented but has never been studied in KS. Here, utilizing COX-2 inhibition strategies, including chemical inhibition and a gene silencing approach, we systematically identified the potential role of KSHV induced COX-2/PGE2 in viral pathogenesis related events such as secretion of inflammatory and angiogenic cytokines, MMPs and cell adhesion in de novo infected or latently infected endothelial cells. We report that COX-2/PGE2 inhibition down-regulates viral latent gene expression and survival of latently infected endothelial cells. The data emanating from our in vitro studies is valuable, informative and requires further examination using an in vitro angiogenic model and in vivo nude mice model to further validate COX-2 as a novel therapeutic to target latent infection and the associated diseases like KS.

Abstract
Adrenal chromaffin cells secrete catecholamines in response to cholinergic receptor activation by acetylcholine (ACh). Characteristics of Ca(2+) transients induced by activation of nicotinic (nAChRs) and muscarinic (mAChRs) receptors were analyzed using Fura-2 fluorescent measurements on rat chromaffin cells. We first found two populations of chromaffin cells, which differently responded on AChR stimulation. In the first group (n-cells), consecutive ACh applications evoked persistent Ca(2+) transients, whereas desensitizing transients were observed in the other group (m-cells). The AChR agonists and antagonists precisely imitated or abolished the ACh action on n- and m-type cells, respectively. Cytochemical staining showed that n-cells contained adrenaline, whereas m-cells-noradrenaline. Thus, for the first time we found that nAChRs and mAChRs are differentially expressed in adrenergic and noradrenergic chromaffin cells, respectively. Our data suppose that chromaffin cells can be differentially regulated by incoming ACh signals and in such way release different substances-adrenaline and noradrenaline.

Abstract
The ability of caffeine-induced store Ca(2+) mobilization to activate tyrosine hydroxylase was studied in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. Caffeine increased tyrosine hydroxylase activity over 10 min with an EC(50) of 3 mm and maximum effect at 20 mm. The maximum response to caffeine was substantial, being almost one third that of the strongest agonists acetylcholine and PACAP-27, about half that for K(+) and similar to that for histamine. In contrast, catecholamine secretion evoked by caffeine was small, being less than 10% of the response to strong agonists. Caffeine-induced tyrosine hydroxylase activation was not mimicked or prevented by phosphodiesterase inhibition with isobutylmethylxanthine, nor was it mimicked by an equimolar concentration of sucrose. However, the effect of caffeine was prevented by depleting intracellular Ca(2+) stores by thapsigargin pretreatment, and reduced substantially by removing extracellular Ca(2+), by blocking Ca(2+) channels with Co(2+) or Ni(2+), or by inhibiting store-operated channels with 2-aminoethyl diphenylborate. It was not affected by inhibiting Ca(2+) entry through voltage-operated Ca(2+)-channels or by tetrodotoxin. The effect of caffeine was mimicked by acute thapsigargin treatment or by depleting intracellular Ca(2+) stores in Ca(2+)-free buffer and then reintroducing extracellular Ca(2+). The results indicate that mobilizing store Ca(2+) with caffeine is a very effective mechanism for activating tyrosine hydroxylase and that the majority of this response depends on extracellular Ca(2+) entry through store-operated channels. They also suggest that extracellular Ca(2+) entry through such channels regulates cellular responses differently to Ca(2+) entry through voltage-operated Ca(2+) channels.

Abstract
The effect on exocytosis of La(3+), a known inhibitor of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPases and Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers, was studied using cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. At high concentrations (0.3-3 mM), La(3+) substantially increased histamine-induced catecholamine secretion. This action was mimicked by other lanthanide ions (Nd(3+), Eu(3+), Gd(3+), and Tb(3+)), but not several divalent cations. In the presence of La(3+), the secretory response to histamine became independent of extracellular Ca(2+). La(3+) enhanced secretion evoked by other agents that mobilize intracellular Ca(2+) stores (angiotensin II, bradykinin, caffeine, and thapsigargin), but not that due to passive depolarization with 20 mM K(+). La(3+) still enhanced histamine-induced secretion in the presence of the nonselective inhibitors of Ca(2+)-permeant channels SKF96365 and Cd(2+), but the enhancement was abolished by prior depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with thapsigargin. La(3+) inhibited (45)Ca(2+) efflux from preloaded chromaffin cells in the presence or absence of Na(+). It also enhanced and prolonged the rise in cytosolic [Ca(2+)] measured with fura-2 during mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with histamine in Ca(2+)-free buffer. The results suggest that the efficacy of intracellular Ca(2+) stores in evoking exocytosis is enhanced dramatically by inhibiting Ca(2+) efflux from the cell.

Abstract
Whole-cell patch-clamp experiments and optical measurements with the Ca2+ fluorescent dye fura-2 were performed to examine histamine induced cytosolic Ca2+ changes in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the sustained plateau phase, which followed the rapid transient increase, was due to Ca2+ influx. The extracellular Ca2+ dependence appeared to be minor, because substitution of Ca2+ with EGTA or BAPTA did not cause obvious changes in the biphasic Ca2+ response. Application of histamine in a Mn2+ containing external solution did not quench the fura-2 signal. It was neither possible to detect a histamine induced depolarisation, nor a Ca2+ permeable current. Changing the driving force for Ca2+ during the plateau phase did not result in a correlating fura-2 signal. Metal ions like Cd2+, La3+ and Co2+ which are known to block Ca2+ influx were unable to abolish the typical histamine induced Ca2+ response. These results suggest that primarily intracellular Ca2+ was responsible for generating the characteristic biphasic Ca2+ response due to histamine in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells.

Abstract
The adrenal gland contains resident macrophages, some of which lie adjacent to the catecholamine producing chromaffin cells. Because macrophages release a variety of secretory products, it is possible that paracrine signaling between these two cell types exists. Of particular interest is the potential paracrine modulation of voltage-gated calcium channels (I(Ca)), which are the main calcium influx pathway triggering catecholamine release from chromaffin cells. We report that prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), one of the main signals produced by macrophages, inhibited I(Ca) in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. The inhibition is rapid, robust, and voltage dependent; the activation kinetics are slowed and inhibition is largely reversed by a large depolarizing prepulse, suggesting that the inhibition is mediated by a direct G-protein betagamma subunit interaction with the calcium channels. About half of the response to PGE(2) was sensitive to pertussis toxin (PTX) incubation, suggesting both PTX-sensitive and -insensitive G proteins were involved. We show that activation of macrophages by endotoxin rapidly (within minutes) releases a signal that inhibits I(Ca) in chromaffin cells. The inhibition is voltage dependent and partially PTX sensitive. PGE(2) is not responsible for this inhibition as blocking cyclooxygenase with ibuprofen did not prevent the production of the inhibitory signal by the macrophages. Nor did blocking the lipoxygenase pathway with nordihydroguaiaretic acid alter production of the inhibitory signal. Our results suggest that macrophages may modulate I(Ca) and catecholamine secretion by releasing PGE(2) and other chemical signal(s).

Abstract
1. The role of the cyclic AMP (cAMP) transduction cascade in mediating the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-induced decrease in potassium current (IK) was investigated in isolated embryonic rat sensory neurones using the whole-cell patch-clamp recording technique. 2. Exposure to 100 microM chlorophenylthio-adenosine cyclic 3', 5'-monophosphate (cpt-cAMP) or 1 microM PGE2 caused a slow suppression of the whole-cell IK by 34 and 36 %, respectively (measured after 20 min), without a shift in the voltage dependence of activation for this current. Neither of these agents altered the shape of the voltage-dependent inactivation curve indicating that the suppression of IK did not result from alterations in the inactivation properties. 3. To determine whether the PGE2-mediated suppression of IK depended on activation of the cAMP pathway, cells were exposed to this prostanoid in the presence of the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, PKI. The PGE2-induced suppression of IK was prevented by PKI. In the absence of PGE2, PKI had no significant effect on the magnitude of IK. 4. Results obtained from protocols using different conditioning prepulse voltages indicated that the extent of cpt-cAMP- and PGE2-mediated suppression of IK was independent of the prepulse voltage. The subtraction of control and treated currents revealed that the cpt-cAMP- and PGE2-sensitive currents exhibited little time-dependent inactivation. Taken together, these results suggest that the modulated currents may be delayed rectifier-like IK. 5. Exposure to the inhibitors of IK, tetraethylammonium (TEA) or 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), reduced the control current elicited by a voltage step to +60 mV by 40-50 %. In the presence of 10 mM TEA, treatment with cpt-cAMP did not result in any further inhibition of IK. In contrast, cpt-cAMP reduced IK by an additional 25-30 % in the presence of 1 mM 4-AP. This effect was independent of the conditioning prepulse voltage. 6. These results establish that PGE2 inhibits an outward IK in sensory neurones via activation of PKA and are consistent with the idea that the PGE2-mediated sensitization of sensory neurones results, in part, from an inhibition of delayed rectifier-like IK.

Abstract
The chromaffin cell has been used as a model to characterize releasable components present in secretory granules and to understand the cellular mechanisms involved in catecholamine release. Recent physiological and biochemical developments have revealed that molecular mechanisms implicated in granule trafficking are conserved in all eukaryotic species: a rise in intracellular calcium triggers regulated exocytosis, and highly conserved proteins are essential elements which interact with each other to form a molecular scaffolding, ensuring the docking of granules at the plasma membrane, and perhaps membrane fusion. However, the mechanisms regulating secretion are multiple and cell specific. They operate at different steps along the life of a granule, from the time of granule biosynthesis up to the last step of exocytosis. With regard to cell specificity, noradrenaline and adrenaline chromaffin cells display different receptor and signaling characteristics that may be important to exocytosis. Characterization of regulated exocytosis in chromaffin cells provides not only fundamental knowledge of neurosecretion but is of additional importance as these cells are used for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
The effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), an important metabolite of arachidonic acid, were studied on the activity of nicotinic AChR channels in cultured chick sympathetic ganglion neurons. In whole cell recordings, PGE2 (25 nM) inhibited significantly the ACh-evoked macroscopic current. In cell-attached patch recordings, PGE2 significantly inhibited single AChR channel currents as a result of a decrease in the frequency of channel opening, with no change in open time and conductance. PGE2 did not alter the extent or rate of agonist-induced desensitization of the AChR channels. These effects are specific since the related compound PGD2 had no effect on AChR channel function. Because there is an abundant endogenous production of PGE2 within sympathetic ganglia in response to certain stimuli, the inhibition of AChR channel function by PGE2 could serve an important role to modulate synaptic transmission in the sympathetic nervous system.

Abstract
The synthesis regulation of secretogranin II was investigated in bovine chromaffin cells by treatment with various first messengers. Nicotine and prostaglandin E2 elevated secretogranin II mRNA and protein up to three-fold. Angiotensin II, atrial natriuretic peptide, apomorphine, bradykinin and clonidine on the other hand had no effect. The prostaglandin E induced elevation of secretogranin II mRNA was transduced via the calcium/calmodulin pathway but not via the protein kinase A or C pathways as shown by using specific inhibitors. Exposure of chromaffin cells to drugs specifically activating second messenger pathways both elevated and decreased secretogranin II mRNA. The calcium channel agonist Bay K, forskolin and phorbol esters increased secretogranin II mRNA whereas 8-Br-cGMP repressed the secretogranin II message. Thus, although secretogranin II expression can be altered by all major second messenger transduction systems, regulation of secretogranin II in vivo occurs mainly via the calcium/calmodulin pathway. Chromogranin A and B mRNA were not changed by any of the first messengers investigated indicating a differential synthesis regulation of components co-stored in bovine chromaffin granules.

Abstract
To determine whether the sensitizing action of prostaglandins on sensory neurons are due to modulation of voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) we examined the effects of inhibiting these channels on PGE2-induced enhancement of evoked peptide release from isolated dorsal root ganglion neurons. The inhibitory effects of the VSCC blockers on stimulated release were dependent upon the type of chemical agent used to evoke the release. Bradykinin-stimulated release of immunoreactive substance P (iSP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (iCGRP) was attenuated by the N-type VSCC blocker, omega-conotoxin GVIA (100 nM), but was unaffected by blockade of L-type (1 microM nifedipine) or P-type (200 nM omega-agatoxin IVA) VSCC. In contrast, potassium-stimulated release of peptides was inhibited by nifedipine, but not by omega-conotoxin GVIA or omega-agatoxin IVA. None of the VSCC blockers tested attenuated capsaicin-stimulated release of iSP and iCGRP. The combination of 1 microM nifedipine and 100 nM omega-conotoxin GVIA reduced the whole cell calcium current 89% +/- 1.7%. Administration of 100 nM PGE2 potentiated bradykinin- and capsaicin-evoked peptide release by 2-3-fold. Neither nifedipine nor omega-conotoxin GVIA attenuated the PGE2-mediated potentiation of bradykinin-evoked release, and neither omega-conotoxin GVIA nor omega-agatoxin IVA blocked the potentiation of capsaicin-evoked release induced by PGE2. These results indicate that the sensitizing actions of PGE2 as measured by enhanced peptide release, are not mediated by L-, N-, or P-type VSCC.

Abstract
Intrathecal (i.t.) injection of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to conscious mice produced a hyperalgesic action over a wide range of dosages with two apparent peaks at 100 pg and 10 ng per mouse, which may be mediated through EP3 and EP2 subtypes of the PGE receptor. In the present study, the effects of NMDA receptor antagonists on hyperalgesia induced by PGE2 were evaluated by the hot plate test at 30 min after i.t. injection. Hyperalgesia induced by a higher dose of PGE2 (10 ng/mouse) was relieved by D-AP5 (a competitive antagonist), 7-Cl-KynA (a glycine site antagonist), and ketamine and MK801 (non-competitive channel blockers). Intrathecal injection of butaprost (10 ng/mouse), an EP2 agonist, induced hyperalgesia, and this hyperalgesia was blocked by D-AP5, 7-Cl-KynA, ketamine, and MK801, similar to that induced by 10 ng of PGE2. On the other hand, hyperalgesia induced by a lower dose of PGE2 (100 pg/mouse) was blocked by D-AP5 and 7-Cl-KynA, but not by ketamine and MK801. Intrathecal injection of sulprostone (100 pg/mouse), an EP1 and EP3 agonist, induced hyperalgesia, and this hyperalgesia was blocked by D-AP5 and 7-Cl-KynA, but not by ketamine and MK801, similar to that induced by 100 pg of PGE2. These results first demonstrate that the NMDA receptor is involved in the PGE2-induced hyperalgesia and suggest that the hyperalgesic action by lower and higher doses of PGE2 may be mediated through EP3 and EP2 subtypes, respectively.

Abstract
The relationship between histamine-induced Ca2+ mobilization and Ca2+ entry in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been investigated. Stopped-flow fluorimetry of fura-2-loaded chromaffin cell populations revealed that 10 microM histamine promoted entry of Ca2+ or Mn2+ without measurable delay (< or = 20 ms), through a pathway that was insensitive to the dihydropyridine antagonist nifedipine. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, or in the presence of 100 microM La3+, a blocker of receptor-mediated Ca2+ entry, 10 microM histamine triggered an elevation in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), but only after a delay of approx. 200 ms, which presumably represented the time required to mobilize intracellular Ca2+. These data suggested that histamine-induced bivalent-cation entry precedes extensive Ca2+ mobilization in chromaffin cells. In order to confirm that histamine can promote Ca2+ entry largely independently of mobilizing intracellular Ca2+, the ability of histamine to promote Ca2+ entry into cells whose intracellular Ca2+ store had been largely depleted was assessed. Fura-2-loaded chromaffin cells were treated with 10 microM ryanodine together with 40 mM caffeine, to deplete the hormone-sensitive Ca2+ store. This resulted in an approx. 95% inhibition of histamine-induced Ca2+ release. Under these conditions, histamine was still able to promote an entry of Ca2+ that was essentially indistinguishable from that promoted in control cells. In single cells, introduction of heparin (100 mg/ml), but not de-N-sulphated heparin (100 mg/ml), abolished the histamine-induced rise in [Ca2+]i. All these data suggest that histamine can induce G-protein- or inositol phosphate-dependent rapid (< or = 20 ms) Ca2+ entry without an extensive intracellular mobilization response in chromaffin cells, which points to activation of an entry mechanism distinct from the Ca(2+)-release-activated Ca2+ channel found in non-excitable cells.

Abstract
The effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) on 86Rb efflux from rat brain synaptosomes were studied to explore its role in nerve ending potassium (K+) channel modulation. A selective dose-dependent inhibition of the calcium-activated charybdotoxin-sensitive component of efflux was found upon application of PGE2. No significant effect was seen on basal and voltage-dependent components over the concentration range of 10(-8) to 10(-5) M. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors H-7 (10 microM) and staurosporine (100 nM), as well as prolonged preincubation (90 min) with 4 beta-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, which has been reported to down-regulate PKC, abolished the PGE2-induced inhibition, whereas HA1004 (10 microM) and Rp-3',5'-cyclic phosphorothioate (100 nM), which are relatively more selective for protein kinase A than PKC, did not. 4 beta-Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (100 nM), an activator of PKC, produced a similar inhibition of the Ca(2+)-dependent component of 86Rb efflux but also had no effect on the basal and voltage-dependent components. These data suggest that PGE2 can inhibit rat brain nerve ending calcium-activated 86Rb efflux, and this inhibition may involve PKC activation.

Abstract
In order to investigate the involvement of glutamate receptor systems in allodynia induced by prostaglandin (PG) E2 or F2 alpha, we co-administered antagonists for N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), non-NMDA, or metabotropic glutamate receptors intrathecally with PGE2 or PGF2 alpha and examined their effects on the allodynia evoked in conscious mice by non-noxious brushing of the flanks. MK-801, a non-competitive NMDA receptor channel blocker, and D-AP-5, a selective NMDA receptor antagonist, dose-dependently blocked PGE2-induced allodynia with an IC50 of 1.60 and 0.52 microgram/mouse, respectively. A glycine binding-site antagonist for the NMDA receptor, 7-Cl-KYNA, did not influence it. None of these NMDA receptor antagonists inhibited PGF2 alpha-evoked allodynia. Non-NMDA receptor antagonists GAMS and CNQX inhibited both PGE2- and PGF2 alpha-induced allodynia. On the other hand, L-AP-3 and L-AP-4, putative metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonists, dose-dependently antagonized the allodynia induced by PGF2 alpha with an IC50 of 0.92 and 3.26 ng/mouse, respectively, but not that induced by PGE2. Intrathecal administration of L-glutamate produced allodynia over a wide range of low doses from 0.1 pg to 0.1 microgram/mouse, and the maximal effect was observed at 1 ng. Similar to allodynia induced by prostaglandins, the response lasted over a 50-min experimental period. These results demonstrate that both PGE2- and PGF2 alpha-evoked allodynia are mediated through a pathway that includes the glutamate receptor system but that subtypes of glutamate receptors involved and sites of action in the spinal cord may be different between them.

Abstract
Basal release of [3H]catecholamine ([3H]CA) from rabbit carotid bodies (CBs), previously incubated in the presence of [3H]tyrosine, was not significantly modified by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). On the contrary, PGE2 (3-300 nM) produced a dose-dependent inhibition of the low PO2-evoked release of [3H]CA. The inhibition was greatest (55%) at a low intensity of hypoxic stimulation (incubating solution PO2 approximately 66 mmHg) and decreased with increasing intensities of hypoxia. Chronic denervation of the CB did not modify the response to PGE2. The release of [3H]CA induced by incubating the CBs in a hypercapnic-acidic solution (PCO2 approximately 132 mmHg; pH = 6.60) and by dinitrophenol (100 microM) was not significantly modified by 300 nM PGE2. PGE2 (300 nM) inhibited the release of [3H]CA elicited by incubating the CBs in a high K+ (35 mM)-containing solution. The release response elicited by high K+ (25 mM) was strongly augmented by a dihydropyridine agonist of Ca2+ channels, Bay K 8644, at a concentration of 1 microM. The Bay K 8644 effect was partly inhibited by PGE2 (300 nM). Using whole-cell recordings in freshly dispersed or short-term cultured chemoreceptor cells from adult rabbits it was found that Ca2+ currents (ICa) were reversibly inhibited by bath application of PGE2. A good parallelism exits between the dose-response curves for PGE2 inhibition of ICa in isolated chemoreceptor cells and high extracellular [K+]- or hypoxia-evoked release of [3H]CA from the whole CB.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Microscopic fluorescence analysis of fura-2-loaded bovine adrenal chromaffin cells demonstrates that approximately 70% of the cells responded to arachidonic acid in increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Because this increase was markedly less in the absence of external Ca2+, we examined the effect of arachidonic acid on Ca2+ influx electrophysiologically. Bath application of 10 microM arachidonic acid induced a long-lasting inward current when the cell was clamped at -50 mV. Other fatty acids, such as oleic acid, linoleic acid, eicosatrienoic acid, and eicosapentaenoic acid, were all ineffective. The current-voltage relationships suggest that arachidonic acid may activate voltage-insensitive channels. Arachidonic acid (> or = 2 microM) activated a single-channel current in the inside-out patch, even in the presence of inhibitors of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, possibly suggesting that arachidonic acid could activate channels directly. The onset delay of the inward channel current in the outside-out patch configuration (54.2 +/- 63.5 s; mean +/- SD) was significantly shorter than that in the inside-out patch one (197.3 +/- 177.7 s). Washout of arachidonic acid decreased the probability of channel openings in the outside-out patch but not in the inside-out one. These results suggest that arachidonic acid activates channels reversibly from outside of the plasma membrane. The unitary conductance for Ca2+ of arachidonic acid-activated channel was approximately 17 pS. The arachidonic acid-activated channel was permeable to Ba2+, Ca2+, and Na+ but not to Cl-. The opening probability of the arachidonic acid-activated channel did not depend on membrane potential.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Prostacyclin (PGI2)-mediated signal transduction was examined in interleukin 3 (IL-3)-dependent BNu-2cl3 mast cells. Iloprost, a stable PGI2 analogue, induced the accumulation of intracellular cAMP and IP3, and an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Pretreatment of the cells with a protein kinase C activator, 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate, suppressed the iloprost-induced IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization, but inversely potentiated the cAMP accumulation, suggesting that neither of these signal transduction pathways of iloprosts is the result of a secondary effect of activation of the other. Removal of IL-3 from the culture medium reduced the iloprost-induced IP3 accumulation and Ca2+ mobilization, while it had no effect on the iloprost-induced cAMP accumulation at all. These results taken together suggest that BNu-2cl3 cells express two types of PGI2 receptor; one couples to stimulation of adenylate cyclase, its expression being independent of IL-3, while the other couples to phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, its expression being dependent on IL-3.

Abstract
The spatial organization of agonist-induced Ca2+ entry in single bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been investigated using video-imaging techniques to visualize fura-2 quenching by the Ca2+ surrogate, Mn2+. The potent secretagogue histamine, in addition to releasing Ca2+ from intracellular stores, resulted in a large influx of external Mn2+ that occurred over the entire surface of the cell. The influx of Ca2+ that this mirrors was found to be an obligatory requirement for the triggering of catecholamine release by histamine, which suggests that such a global influx of Ca2+ into the cell probably underlies the ability of this agonist to stimulate a large secretory response. By contrast, the weaker secretagogue angiotensin II, which also acts through the second messenger inositol trisphosphate, produced a localized entry of external Mn2+ in 64% of cells. In these cells, localized Mn2+ entry always occurred at the pole of the cell in which the angiotensin II-induced rise in [Ca2+]i was largest. Since exocytosis in response to angiotensin II has previously been shown to be restricted to this same pole of the cell (Cheek et al. (1989). J. Cell Biol. 109, 1219–1227), these results suggest that localized influx of Ca2+ in response to angiotensin II could underlie the polarized exocytotic response observed with this stimulus. These results directly demonstrate that different agonists can induce different patterns of divalent cation influx in the same cells and, furthermore, suggest how these different patterns can have a direct influence on cellular function.

Abstract
Fluorescence measurements of intracellular calcium (Cai) were made on cultured rat spinal cord oligodendrocytes (OLGs) using the dye fura-2. Exposure of OLGs to arachidonic acid (AA) (5-50 microM) elicited a concentration-dependent increase in Cai that was derived mainly from extracellular Ca2+. AA at 50 microM also released Ca2+ from intracellular stores. The response to AA was not decreased by nifedipine or by inhibition of Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange. AA-induced Ca2+ influx pathway was permeable to Mn2+ and Co2+ but not to Ba2+ and was not markedly influenced by depolarization, suggesting that AA activates a voltage-independent, not strictly selective, Ca2+ channel. The Cai response to AA was partially attenuated in the presence of indomethacin, indicating that the Cai response was mediated in part by cyclooxygenase products of AA. However, the AA-induced Cai response far exceeded that induced by prostaglandins and was mimicked by linoleic acid. We conclude that AA modulates Cai of OLGs via two mechanisms: 1) indirectly via cyclooxygenase pathway and 2) directly via membrane lipid-protein interaction.

Abstract
We have characterized the effect of the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (tBHQ) and thapsigargin on the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ in single bovine adrenal chromaffin cells by video-imaging of fura-2-loaded cells. Addition of either inhibitor released Ca2+ from internal stores in the absence of external Ca2+. tBHQ was unable to stimulate further Ca2+ release after addition of thapsigargin, but thapsigargin could do so after release by tBHQ, indicating that the tBHQ-sensitive stores are a sub-set of those sensitive to thapsigargin. Angiotensin II was able to elicit Ca2+ release after application of tBHQ, indicating that at least part of the tBHQ-sensitive stores were distinct from those discharged by Ins(1,4,5)P3. In the presence of external Ca2+, both Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors produced a more prolonged rise in cytosolic Ca2+ consistent with stimulated Ca2+ entry. The ability of the inhibitors to activate a Ca(2+)-entry pathway was confirmed by monitoring quenching of fura-2 after stimulated entry of the Ca2+ surrogate Mn2+. These findings indicate that bovine adrenal chromaffin cells possess a mechanism by which Ca2+ entry can be activated, following emptying of certain internal stores, independently of receptor occupation.

Abstract
The LAN-1 clone, a cell line derived from a human neuroblastoma, possesses muscarinic receptors. The stimulation of these receptors with increasing concentrations of carbachol (CCh; 1-1,000 microM) caused a dose-dependent increase of the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). This increase was characterized by an early peak phase (10 s) and a late plateau phase. The removal of extracellular Ca2+ reduced the magnitude of the peak phase to approximately 70% but completely abolished the plateau phase. The muscarinic-activated Ca2+ channel was gadolinium (Gd3+) blockade and nimodipine and omega-conotoxin insensitive. In addition, membrane depolarization did not cause any increase in [Ca2+]i. The CCh-induced [Ca2+]i elevation was concentration-dependently inhibited by pirenzepine and 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine methiodide, two rather selective antagonists of M1 and M3 muscarinic receptor subtypes, respectively, whereas methoctramine, an M2 antagonist, was ineffective. The coupling of M1 and M3 receptor activation with [Ca2+]i elevation does not seem to be mediated by a pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide-binding protein or by the diacylglycerol-protein kinase C system. The mobilization of [Ca2+]i elicited by M1 and M3 muscarinic receptor stimulation seems to be dependent on an inositol trisphosphate-sensitive intracellular store. In addition, ryanodine did not prevent CCh-induced [Ca2+]i mobilization, and, finally, LAN-1 cells appear to lack caffeine-sensitive Ca2+ stores, because the methylxanthine was unable to elicit intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, under basal conditions, after a subthreshold concentration of CCh (0.3 microM), or after thapsigargin.

Abstract
The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-sensitive subtype of glutamate receptor, which gates Ca(2+)-permeable ion channels, is known for its role in learning and memory formation, in the induction of long-term potentiation, and also in seizure activity and neurotoxicity. In primary cultures of cerebellar neurons, agonists of NMDA receptors induce a dose-dependent release of [3H]arachidonic acid ([3H]AA), which is potentiated by activation of the glycine-positive modulatory site and inhibited by NMDA receptor antagonists. NMDA receptor-induced [3H]AA release is inhibited by quinacrine and partially depends on the presence of extracellular calcium. The [3H]AA release is not sensitive, however, to pretreatment with pertussis or cholera toxin, which suggests a Ca(2+)-dependent activation of phospholipase A2 not employing G proteins. Pretreatment of cultures with the natural and semisynthetic sphingolipids GT1b and PKS 3, respectively, inhibits NMDA receptor-mediated [3H]AA release. We also demonstrated glutamate-evoked [3H]AA release from rat hippocampal slices, which is NMDA receptor mediated, calcium dependent and sensitive to quinacrine. Arachidonic acid and its metabolites have been shown to play a role as second messengers and to modulate neuronal activity. Moreover, they are thought to act as transsynaptic modulators in the mechanism of NMDA receptor-induced long-term potentiation in the hippocampus. Their role in ischemic brain pathology has also been postulated. Our experiments on cultured cerebellar granule cells, incubated in a Mg(2+)-free medium deprived of glucose and oxygen, demonstrated a time-dependent stimulation of [3H]AA release. This release was inhibited by antagonists of NMDA receptors and by quinacrine. Stimulation of NMDA-sensitive glutamate receptors and the subsequent calcium-mediated activation of phospholipase A2 may play a role in the in vivo release of arachidonic acid during brain ischemia. This hypothesis is supported by the observation that the enhanced level of thromboxane B2 in the gerbil brain after 5 min of global ischemia is reduced by the systemic application of either the NMDA antagonist MK-801 or the ganglioside GM1.

Abstract
The pivotal intracellular message for triggering catecholamine release from bovine adrenal chromaffin cells is an elevation in the concentration of cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). Studies using video-imaging techniques have shown that a rise in [Ca2+]i at the cell periphery, that is due to Ca2+ entry, is the major activating signal for exocytosis. The cytoskeleton has been identified as a major regulatory site of exocytosis, with Ca(2+)-induced disruption of the cortical actin network being required in order that previously restrained granules may have access to their exocytotic sites. The Ca(2+)- and phospholipid-dependent annexin protein, calpactin, has been strongly implicated in a late stage of interaction between granules and the plasma membrane by both ultrastructural and biochemical studies.

Abstract
We recently reported that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) stimulates phosphoinositide metabolism accompanied by an increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. In the present study, temporal and spatial changes in [Ca2+]i induced by PGE2 in fura-2-loaded individual cells were investigated by digital image microscopy and were compared with those induced by nicotine and histamine. Image analysis of single cells revealed that responses to PGE2 showed asynchrony with the onset of [Ca2+]i changes. After a lag time of 10-30 s, PGE2-induced [Ca2+]i changes took a similar prolonged time course in almost all cells: a rapid rise followed by a slower decline to the basal level over 5 min. Few cells exhibited oscillations in [Ca2+]i. In contrast, nicotine and histamine induced rapid and transient [Ca2+]i changes, and these [Ca2+]i changes were characteristic of each stimulant. Whereas pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml, 6 h) did not block the response to any of these stimulants, treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (100 nM, 10 min) completely abolished [Ca2+]i changes elicited by PGE2 and histamine. In a Ca2(+)-free medium containing 3 mM EGTA, or in medium to which La3+ was added, the [Ca2+]i response to nicotine disappeared, but that to histamine was not affected significantly. Under the same conditions, the percentage of the cells that responded to PGE2 was reduced to 37% and the prolonged [Ca2+]i changes induced by PGE2 became transient in responding cells, suggesting that the maintained [Ca2+]i increase seen in normal medium is the result of a PGE2-stimulated entry of extracellular Ca2+. Whereas the organic Ca2(+)-channel blocker nicardipine inhibited [Ca2+]i changes by all stimulants at 10 microM, these [Ca2+]i changes were not affected by any of the organic Ca2(+)-channel blockers, i.e., verapamil, diltiazem, nifedipine, and nicardipine, at 1 microM, a concentration high enough to inhibit voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels. These results demonstrate that PGE2 may promote Ca2+ entry with concomitant release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and that the mechanism(s) triggered by PGE2 is apparently different from that by histamine or nicotine.
