We studied the phosphorylation of the secretory Na+-K+-2Cl− cotransporter (NKCC1) in rat parotid acinar cells. We have previously shown that NKCC1 activity in these cells is dramatically upregulated in response to β-adrenergic stimulation and that this upregulation correlates with NKCC1 phosphorylation, possibly due to protein kinase A (PKA). We show here that when ATP is added to purified acinar basolateral membranes (BLM), NKCC1 is phosphorylated as a result of membrane-associated protein kinase activity. Additional NKCC1 phosphorylation is seen when PKA is added to BLMs, but our data indicate that this is due to an effect of PKA on endogenous membrane kinase or phosphatase activities, rather than its direct phosphorylation of NKCC1. Also, phosphopeptide mapping demonstrates that these phosphorylations do not take place at the site associated with the upregulation of NKCC1 by β-adrenergic stimulation. However, this upregulatory phosphorylation can be mimicked by the addition of cAMP to permeabilized acini, and this effect can be blocked by a specific PKA inhibitor. These latter results provide good evidence that PKA is indeed involved in the upregulatory phosphorylation of NKCC1 and suggest that an additional factor present in the acinar cell but absent from isolated membranes is required to bring about the phosphorylation.

beta-Adrenergic stimulation of rat parotid acinar cells markedly increases [3H]mannose incorporation into N-linked glycoproteins [Kousvelari, Grant, Banerjee, Newby & Baum (1984) Biochem. J. 222, 17-24]. More than 90% of this protein-bound [3H]mannose was preferentially incorporated into four secretory glycoproteins. The ratio of [3H]mannose/[14C]leucine present in these individual proteins was 1.7-4-fold greater with isoproterenol-treated cells than with untreated controls. In isoproterenol-stimulated cells, [3H]mannose incorporation into mannosylphosphoryl dolichol and oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol was increased 2-3-fold over that observed in unstimulated cells. Similarly, formation of mannosylated oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol was increased approx. 4-fold in microsomes prepared from isoproterenol-treated cells. Also, turnover of oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol was significantly increased (5-fold) by β-adrenergic stimulation; the half-life for oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol decreased from 6 min in control cells to 1.2 min in isoproterenol-stimulated cells. By 15 min after isoproterenol addition to acinar cells, the specific radioactivity of parotid oligosaccharide moieties increased about 3-fold over the value observed in the absence of the agonist. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that elevation of N-linked protein glycosylation in rat parotid acinar cells after β-adrenoreceptor stimulation resulted from significant enhancement in the synthesis of mannosylphosphoryl dolichol and oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol and the turnover of oligosaccharide-PP-dolichol.

We previously found that the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 by submaximal concentrations of the muscarinic receptor ligand carbachol was potentiated in rat parotid acinar cells exposed to ouabain, a cardiac glycoside that inhibits the Na-K-ATPase. We now report that this signaling phenomenon involves the prevention of negative regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 (ERK1/2) that is normally mediated by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Carbachol increases the turnover of the ATP-consuming Na-K-ATPase, reducing intracellular ATP and promoting the phosphorylation/activation of the energy sensor AMPK. Ouabain blocks the reduction in ATP and subsequent AMPK phosphorylation, which is regulated by the AMP-to-ATP ratio. The ouabain-promoted enhancement of ERK1/2 phosphorylation was not reproduced in Par-C10 cells, an immortalized rat parotid cell line that did not respond to carbachol with an ATP reduction and that employs an upstream AMPK kinase (Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase, CaMKK) different from that (LKB1) in native cells. In native parotid cells, inhibitory effects of AMPK on ERK1/2 signaling were examined by activating AMPK with 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-d-ribofuranoside (AICAR), which is converted to an AMP mimetic but does not alter parotid ATP levels. AICAR-treated cells display increases in AMPK phosphorylation and a reduced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 subsequent to activation of muscarinic and P2X7 receptors, which promote increases in Na-K-ATPase turnover, but not upon epidermal growth factor receptor activation. These results suggest that carbachol-initiated AMPK activation can produce a negative feedback on ERK1/2 signaling in response to submaximal muscarinic receptor activation and that increases in fluid secretion can modulate receptor-initiated signaling events indirectly by producing ion transport-dependent decreases in ATP.

Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) is known as a major cellular substrate for protein kinase C (PKC). MARCKS has been implicated in the regulation of brain development and postnatal survival, cellular migration and adhesion, as well as phagocytosis, endocytosis, and exocytosis. The involvement of MARCKS phosphorylation in secretory function has been reported in Ca2+-mediated exocytosis. In rat parotid acinar cells, the activation of β-adrenergic receptors provokes exocytotic amylase release via accumulation of intracellular cAMP levels. Here, we studied the involvement of MARCKS phosphorylation in the cAMP-dependent amylase release in rat parotid acinar cells. MARCKS protein was detected in rat parotid acinar cells by Western blotting. The β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (IPR) induced MARCKS phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner. Translocation of a part of phosphorylated MARCKS from the membrane to the cytosol and enhancement of MARCKS phosphorylation at the apical membrane site induced by IPR were observed by immunohistochemistry. H89, a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) inhibitor, inhibited the IPR-induced MARCKS phosphorylation. The PKCδ inhibitor rottlerin inhibited the IPR-induced MARCKS phosphorylation and amylase release. IPR activated PKCδ, and the effects of IPR were inhibited by the PKA inhibitors. A MARCKS-related peptide partially inhibited the IPR-induced amylase release. These findings suggest that MARCKS phosphorylation via the activation of PKCδ, which is downstream of PKA activation, is involved in the cAMP-dependent amylase release in parotid acinar cells.
