To clarify the possible role of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) in the signal transducing system activated by cholecystokinin (CCK), actions of CCK on rat pancreatic acini were compared with those of fluoride, a well-known activator of stimulatory (Gs) or inhibitory (Gi) G protein. When acini were incubated with increasing concentrations of either CCK-octapeptide (CCK8) or NaF, a maximal stimulation of amylase release from acini occurred at 100 pM CCK8 or 10 mM NaF, respectively; this secretory rate decreased as CCK8 or NaF concentration was increased. NaF caused an increased in cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration from the internal Ca2+ store and stimulated accumulation of inositol phosphates in acini, as observed with CCK. However, NaF-stimulated Ca2+ mobilization had a lag period before detectable stimulation and was potentiated by AlCl3. These stimulatory effects of NaF appeared to be independent of cellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP). Pretreatment with cholera toxin or pertussis toxin did not affect CCK8- or NaF-induced inositol phosphate accumulation or Ca2+ mobilization. 5'-Guanylimidodiphosphate activated the generation of inositol phosphates in the [3H]inositol-labeled pancreatic acinar cell membrane preparation, with half-maximal and maximal stimulation at 1 and 10 microM, respectively. Furthermore, the effects of submaximal CCK concentrations on inositol phosphate accumulation in membranes were markedly potentiated in the presence of 100 microM GTP, which alone was ineffective. Combined findings of the present study strongly suggest that pancreatic CCK receptors are probably coupled to the activation of polyphosphoinositide (PI) breakdown by a G protein, which appears to be fluoride sensitive but is other than Gs- or Gi-like protein.

To determine whether inositol phosphates are important second messengers in the regulation of Cl- secretion by airway epithelia, we examined the relationship between inositol phosphate accumulation and Cl- secretion in response to adrenergic agonists. We found that epinephrine stimulated Cl- secretion and inositol phosphate accumulation with similar concentration dependence. Although isoproterenol stimulated Cl- secretion, there was no effect of beta-adrenergic receptor activation on inositol phosphate accumulation. In contrast, alpha 1-adrenergic receptor activation stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation but failed to induce Cl- secretion. Another Cl- secretagogue, prostaglandin E1, also failed to stimulate inositol phosphate accumulation. These data suggest that inositol phosphate accumulation is neither sufficient nor required for stimulation of Cl- secretion in cultured canine tracheal epithelial cells.

Inositol Phosphate Accumulation

Inositol phosphates (IPs), such as 1,4,5-inositol-trisphosphate (IP3), comprise a ubiquitous intracellular signaling cascade initiated in response to G protein-coupled receptor-mediated activation of phospholipase C. Classical methods for measuring intracellular accumulation of these molecules include time-consuming high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation or large-volume, gravity-fed anion-exchange column chromatography. More recent approaches, such as radio-receptor and AlphaScreen™ assays, offer higher throughput. However, these techniques rely on measurement of IP3 itself, rather than its accumulation with other downstream IPs, and often suffer from poor signal-to-noise ratios due to the transient nature of IP3. The authors have developed a miniaturized, anion-exchange chromatography method for measuring inositol phosphate accumulation in cells that takes advantage of signal amplification achieved through measuring IP3 and downstream IPs. This assay uses centrifugation of 96-well-formatted anion-exchange mini-columns for the isolation of radiolabeled inositol phosphates from cell extracts, followed by low-background dry-scintillation counting. This improved assay method measures receptor-mediated IP accumulation with signal-to-noise and pharmacological values comparable to the classical large-volume, column-based methods. Assay validation data for recombinant muscarinic receptor 1, galanin receptor 2, and rat astrocyte metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 are presented. This miniaturized protocol reduces reagent usage and assay time as compared to large-column methods and is compatible with standard 96-well scintillation counters.

Cytosolic free calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) and amylase secretion were measured in isolated rat pancreatic acini loaded with the intracellularly trapped fluorescent indicator quin2. Both caerulein and carbamoylcholine caused a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i, with a maximal 3-fold increase at 10(-9) M-caerulein and 10(-4) M-carbamoylcholine. However, caerulein (10(-12) M and 10(-11) M) as well as carbamoylcholine (10(-7) M) caused a significant stimulation of amylase release, while not inducing any detectable rise in [Ca2+]i. Changes in [Ca2+]i after addition of either secretagogue were transient and did not last more than 2-3 min. By contrast, when amylase secretion was monitored as a function of time, two distinct secretory phases could be observed upon addition of either carbamoylcholine (10(-5) M) or caerulein (10(-10) M). An initial, rapid phase (0-5 min) which caused a 6-7-fold increase above basal, followed by a sustained (5-30 min), but less marked, secretory rate (2-3-fold above basal). Addition of atropine (10(-4) M) 5 min after carbamoylcholine (10(-5) M) (i.e. after termination of the rise in [Ca2+]i and of the first secretory phase) did not cause any significant change in [Ca2+]i, while significantly inhibiting amylase secretion from 5 to 30 min to the same rate observed in the absence of the secretagogue. These results show that caerulein and carbamoylcholine, two agents thought to activate secretion mainly through mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, are capable of eliciting amylase secretion independently of a concomitant rise in [Ca2+]i. Furthermore, with both secretagogues the rise in [Ca2+]i, when observed, was only transient, while the stimulation of amylase release was sustained.

Inositol Phosphate Accumulation

WRK-1 rat mammary tumour cells respond to vasopressin with increased accumulation of inositol phosphates as well as increased precursor incorporation into phosphatidylinositol. The phorbol ester, phorbol 13-myristate 12-acetate (PMA) inhibits by 80% both inositol phosphate accumulation and increased precursor incorporation. This inhibition is much less evident at early times (2 min) than at later times (25 min). The vasopressin-induced rise in cytosolic free Ca2+ is inhibited in a similar manner. Oleoylacetylglycerol is inactive with respect to inhibition of vasopressin-induced increases in incorporation of 32P into phosphoinositides. PMA has no effect on vasopressin binding at saturating concentrations of the hormone and does not affect the binding affinity.

Isolated rat hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture were maintained for 18-24 h in the presence of 10% (v/v) serum and [3H]inositol. Vasopressin (100 nM) stimulated the production of inositol mono-, bis- and tris-phosphates (IP1, IP2, and IP3). Prior exposure of hepatocytes to 8-bromo cyclic AMP (8Br-cAMP; 100 microM), but not 8-bromo cyclic GMP, enhanced the vasopressin-mediated stimulation of inositol phosphate accumulation, but had no significant effect on their formation in the absence of vasopressin. The effect of the cyclic AMP analogue was mimicked by glucagon (10 nM), and was seen whether cyclic AMP or glucagon was added 5 min or 12 h before the addition of vasopressin. An 8 h incubation with dexamethasone (100 nM) enhanced the accumulation of IP3, but not that of IP2 or IP1, in the presence of 8Br-cAMP and vasopressin. Cycloheximide or actinomycin D had little effect on the vasopressin stimulation of inositol phosphate accumulation, after an 8 h incubation in the presence or absence of 8Br-cAMP.

Histamine increases microvascular permeability through a calcium-dependent process, and histamine occupancy of the H1-receptor increases calcium in cultured endothelial cells. Agents that increase adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) in endothelial cells prevent the in vivo increase in microvascular permeability that follows histamine exposure. In the current experiments, histamine occupancy of the H1-receptor increased the flux of albumin across monolayers of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). This was prevented by pretreating the cells with theophylline, forskolin, and 8-bromo-cAMP (BrcAMP), which also decreased the flux of albumin across control monolayers. Exposing the cells to histamine increased inositol phosphate accumulation in the cells, and this was prevented by the H1-antagonist pyrilamine but not by theophylline, forskolin, and BrcAMP. Exposing the cells to histamine increased intracellular calcium measured with fura-2. The increase in cell calcium was prevented by pyrilamine but not by pretreatment with theophylline, forskolin, and BrcAMP. When endogenous cell GTP was depleted by permeabilizing the membranes of the endothelial cells with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin, histamine-stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation was enhanced with addition of GTP but not with addition of GDP to the buffer. Addition of GTP alone to the buffer did not increase inositol phosphate accumulation in alpha-toxin-treated cells. Histamine stimulates inositol phosphate accumulation in HUVEC via a G protein. Inhibition of the edemagenic effects of histamine by cAMP does not occur by interrupting this signal transduction pathway between the binding of histamine to its receptor and the increase in intracellular calcium.

Inositol Phosphate Accumulation

The role of insulin in modulating phosphoinositide breakdown and accumulation of inositol phosphates was investigated in isolated rat pancreatic islets by using GPAIS (guinea-pig anti-insulin antiserum) that neutralizes effects of insulin in the medium. At either 3.0 mM- or 16.7 mM-glucose or 3.0 mM-glucose plus 10 microM-arecaidine propargyl ester (muscarinic receptor agonist), GPAIS (but not control serum) was able to increase InsP2 and InsP3, but not InsP, in myo-[3H] inositol-prelabelled islets. The effect of GPAIS on 3H incorporation into InsP3 was dose-dependent, with a half-maximal effect at a concentration able to bind 4004 +/- 163 microunits of insulin. A specific mass assay of the biologically relevant isomer Ins (1,4,5)P3 revealed a huge increase (greater than 3-folf). Formation of PtdIns, PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 was not affected by GPAIS. This is indirect evidence for an effect of insulin on inositide metabolism, and therefore endogenously released insulin may have led to an underestimation in earlier studies of effects of insulinotropic substances on inositol phosphate accumulation.

Demonstration of guanine-nucleotide-dependent neurotransmitter stimulation of phosphoinositide breakdown in brain membranes has generally required the presence of the detergent, deoxycholate (DOC), in the assay medium. In the present study, by using mouse brain cortical membranes labelled with [3H]inositol in the presence of CMP through the reverse PtdIns synthase reaction, we have been able to show guanosine 5′-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S])-dependent carbachol (CCh) stimulation of the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates in the absence of DOC and have studied how the detergent affects the response. The results of our study indicate that DOC affects the muscarinic receptor-G-protein-phosphoinositidase C (PIC) transduction system in several ways. First, it enhances agonist-induced PIC activity towards [3H]PtdInsP and [3H]PtdInsP2 and, secondly, it decreases the potency for GTP[S] stimulation of PIC, thus enhancing the agonist-induced leftward shift of the dose-response curve for GTP[S]. Additionally, DOC appears to increase the activity of the enzymes of the phosphoinositide cycle, PtdIns 4-kinase, Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and Ins(1,4)P2 1-phosphatase, thus altering the proportion of phosphoinositide substrates and inositol phosphate products. These observations advise caution in drawing conclusions about PIC substrate specificity and the potency of both guanine nucleotides and agonists from experiments performed in membranes in the presence of DOC or related bile salts.
