Non-transformed rat intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) lines were used to study the action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)2D) in the intestine. The capacity of 1,25(OH)2D to increase the expression of the cytochrome P450 component of the vitamin D 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) was determined in IEC-6 and IEC-18 cell lines. In IEC-6 cells, which are derived from crypt cells isolated from the whole small intestine, 1,25(OH)2D markedly increased expression of CYP24 protein and mRNA within 12 h. In contrast, in IEC-18 cells, which are derived from crypt cells from the ileum only, 1,25(OH)2D did not increase expression of CYP24 until 24-48 h. The maximal levels of CYP24 mRNA seen in the IEC-18 cells were only 31% of the maximal levels seen in the IEC-6 cells. In the presence of 1,25(OH)2D, phorbol esters rapidly increased CYP24 mRNA levels in IEC-18 cells from almost undetectable to levels seen in IEC-6 cells. Protein kinase inhibitors abolished the stimulation by 1,25(OH)2D and by phorbol esters in both cell lines. Stimulation of mRNA levels by phorbol esters required new protein synthesis but stimulation by 1,25(OH)2D did not. These studies demonstrated that the rapid action of 1,25(OH)2D in IEC-6 cells is related to the activation of protein kinase C, an event which is missing in the IEC-18 cells. This differential response to 1,25(OH)2D probably takes place at a post-receptor site, since the number of vitamin D receptors in each cell line was found to be similar.

Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) is a ubiquitous transcription factor that affects expression of many genes, including immunoglobulin kappa (kappa), the interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain, and two genes in HIV-1. NF-kappa B can be activated by a number of stimuli, including pharmacological stimulation of protein kinase C by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and treatment in vitro with either protein kinase C or protein kinase A. This has lead to the proposal that these kinases are key enzymes in the physiological activation of NF-kappa B as well. We have used a murine B cell line, 70Z/3, and T cell line, EL-4 6.1 C10, to study the activation of NF-kappa B by two physiological activators, interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). There are four reasons to propose that these agents activate pathways that do not include protein kinase C as a major component in these cell lines. First, the protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) strongly inhibited PMA-induced activation of NF-kappa B in 70Z/3 cells but had no effect on NF-kappa B activated by IL-1 or LPS. Second, depletion of protein kinase C by prolonged growth of 70Z/3 in PMA abrogated the capacity of the cells to activate NF-kappa B in response to further PMA treatment. However, these same cells activated NF-kappa B normally after either IL-1 or LPS treatment. Third, IL-1 effectively activated NF-kappa B in EL-4 6.1 C10 cells, but PMA did not. Fourth, interferon-gamma is a potent activator of protein kinase C in 70Z/3 cells, but is completely inactive in the mobilization of NF-kappa B. These results suggest that the physiological inducers IL-1 and LPS activate NF-kappa B by pathways independent of protein kinase C in both 70Z/3 and EL-4 6.1 C10 cells.

FD/PMA is a subclone of the interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent, FDC-P1 cell line, which proliferates in response to either 12-O- tetradecanoylphorbol-13 acetate (PMA) or IL-3. While several endogenous substrates were phosphorylated in response to protein kinase C (PKC) activation in FDC-P1, phospholipid-dependent phosphorylation in the FD/PMA grown in PMA was not observed. Basal, phosphatidylserine- independent, and diolein-independent phosphorylation of cytosolic substrates with molecular weights of 17, 52, 57, and 105 Kd were enhanced in FD/PMA cells grown in PMA as compared with FDC-P1 cells cultured in IL-3. Phosphorylation of a 105-Kd substrate was enhanced in the particulate fraction of FD/PMA cells maintained in PMA. The 17-Kd substrate in FD/PMA cells comigrated with a substrate phosphorylated in a PKC-dependent manner in FDC-P1 cells. Phosphorylation of the 52- and 57-Kd substrates, but not of the 17-Kd substrate, was inhibited by H-7 and staurosporine. A portion of the PMA-induced cytosolic kinase activity coeluted with PKC on diethyl aminoethyl chromatography. While FD/PMA cells cultured in PMA contained negligible PKC-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous substrates or histone, alpha and epsilon PKC isoforms were detected by Western blot analysis. PKC phosphotransferase activity was observed in FD/PMA cells grown in PMA when peptides corresponding to residues 720 to 737 of PKC-epsilon or residues 4 to 14 of myelin basic protein were used as substrates. These data indicate that maintenance of FD/PMA cells in PMA stimulates proliferation and markedly alters PKC substrate specificity. Generation of at least two phospholipid-independent kinases occurs in PMA-treated cells.

The involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in the regulation of intestinal ion secretion was studied in polarized monolayers of the HT29cl.19A human colon carcinoma cell line. Carbachol, phorbol esters [PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) and PDB (phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate)] and 8-bromo cyclic AMP (8-Br-cAMP) induced Cl secretion, as measured by a rise in the short-circuit current (ISC). The electrical response to carbachol coincided with a transient translocation of PKC alpha from the soluble to the particulate fraction. The carbachol-, PDB- and 8-Br-cAMP-induced ISC responses were inhibited by pretreatment of the cells with PMA (0.5 microM) for 2 h, a time period in which PKC alpha, beta 1 and gamma levels were not changed. As shown by 86Rb+ and 125I- efflux studies, the main targets for this inhibition were basolateral K+ transporters rather than apical Cl- channels. Prolonged exposure to PMA (24 h) led to a 60% recovery of the 8-Br-cAMP response, but not of the carbachol- or PDB-provoked secretion. As shown by immunoblotting with PKC-isoenzyme-specific antisera, the recovery of the 8-Br-cAMP response coincided with the down-regulation of PKC alpha, whereas the levels of PKC beta 1 and gamma were unmodified. These results suggest that PKC alpha, but not PKC beta 1 or gamma, is involved in both acute stimulation and chronic inhibition of ion secretion in the HT29cl.19A colonic cell line.
