Mouse C1 line cells are megakaryoblastic cells established by coinfection of Abelson murine leukemia virus and recombinant simian virus 40. We examined the effects of various compounds on growth and differentiation of these cells. Megakaryocytic differentiation of C1 cells was not induced by cytokines that stimulate megakaryocytic maturation of normal progenitor cells, such as interleukin 3 and 6 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. However, the cells were induced to differentiate into megakaryocytes by treatment with some protein kinase inhibitors. The inhibition of v-abl tyrosine kinase activity preceded induction of differentiation of the cells treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as genistein, herbimycin A, and erbstatin. Treatment of C1 cells with a v-abl antisense oligomer inhibited their proliferation and induced acetylcholinesterase activity, a typical marker of megakaryocytic differentiation. These results suggest that inhibition of v-abl function is associated with induction of megakaryocytic differentiation of C1 cells. Among the compounds tested, 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), a potent inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide-dependent and Ca(2+)-phospholipid-dependent (protein kinase C) protein kinases, was the most potent inducer of differentiation of C1 cells. However, the differentiation-inducing effect of H-7 was unlikely to be mediated through inhibition of protein kinase C or cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases, because other types of inhibitors of these kinases were not effective, and a protein kinase activator (phorbol ester) induced differentiation of C1 cells. Moreover, neither v-abl mRNA expression nor v-abl kinase activity in C1 cells was affected by treatment with H-7. These findings indicate that induction of megakaryocytic differentiation by H-7 is not related to inhibition of v-abl kinase, but rather to some novel function of H-7.

Exposure to the phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA, 100nM) for 10 minutes enhanced cyclic AMP accumulation in human neutrophils under basal conditions and in response to the beta-adrenergic receptor agonist isoproterenol (ISO), 1 microM) and the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin (FSK, 10mM). Potentiation of responses to ISO by PMA was dose-dependent between 0.1 and 100nM PMA. The diacylglycerol analogue, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG) (50 microM) also elevated beta-receptor responses, but 4 beta-phorbol (100nM), lacking the capacity to activate PMA, was ineffective. Short-term exposure (12 seconds) to the peptide n-formylmethionine leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP, 1 microM) also elevated neutrophil cyclic AMP accumulation. All potentiating effects of PMA on cyclic AMP production were inhibited by the protein kinase inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7). Elevation of cyclic AMP by FMLP was insensitive to H7. PMA had no apparent effect on beta-receptor agonist-affinity, distribution between cell-surface and internalised compartments, or the capacity of ISO to induce beta-receptor internalisation. Responses to FSK or ISO in terms of fold-stimulation of basal cyclic AMP accumulation in the presence of PMA were not elevated by PMA. These findings indicate that PMA exerts a potentiating effect on neutrophil adenylate cyclase responses through protein kinase C activation. FMLP elevation of neutrophil cyclic AMP in the absence of other stimuli, appears however, to be insensitive to protein kinase inhibition.

Okadaic acid, a potent inhibitor of Type 1 and Type 2A protein phosphatases, was used to investigate the mechanism of insulin action on membrane-bound low Km cAMP phosphodiesterase in rat adipocytes. Upon incubation of cells with 1 microM okadaic acid for 20 min, phosphodiesterase was stimulated 3.7- to 3.9-fold. This stimulation was larger than that elicited by insulin (2.5- to 3.0-fold). Although okadaic acid enhanced the effect of insulin, the maximum effects of the two agents were not additive. When cells were pretreated with 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), the level of phosphodiesterase stimulation by okadaic acid was rendered smaller, similar to that attained by insulin. In cells that had been treated with 2 mM KCN, okadaic acid (like insulin) failed to stimulate phosphodiesterase, suggesting that ATP was essential. Also, as reported previously, the effect of insulin on phosphodiesterase was reversed upon exposure of hormone-treated cells to KCN. This deactivation of previously-stimulated phosphodiesterase was blocked by okadaic acid, but not by insulin. The above KCN experiments were carried out with cells in which A-kinase activity was minimized by pretreatment with H-7. Okadaic acid mildly stimulated basal glucose transport and, at the same time, strongly inhibited the action of insulin thereon. It is suggested that insulin may stimulate phosphodiesterase by promoting its phosphorylation and that the hormonal effect may be reversed by a protein phosphatase which is sensitive to okadaic acid. The hypothetical protein kinase thought to be involved in the insulin-dependent stimulation of phosphodiesterase appears to be more H-7-resistant than A-kinase.

LH, in addition to increasing cyclic AMP (cAMP) in ovarian cells, stimulates phosphoinositide hydrolysis producing inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol (DG). DG activates phospholipid- and calcium-dependent protein kinase (PKC). In the present study, we have used both PKC activators and inhibitors to examine the interactions of the PKC pathway on hormone-induced cAMP production in porcine luteal cells. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) enhanced LH- and forskolin-induced cAMP production. A time-course study indicated that the facilitatory effect of PMA was greater when added to incubation tubes following addition LH or forskolin. The non-tumour-promoting phorbol ester 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, which does not stimulate PKC activation, did not facilitate hormone-induced cAMP induction. PKC inhibitors polymyxin B, sphingosine and 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7) antagonized the facilitatory effect of PMA on LH-induced cAMP production. The cAMP induction by both LH and forskolin was inhibited in the presence of PKC inhibitors. Polymyxin E, which differs from polymyxin B by a single amino acid and does not inhibit PKC activation, did not inhibit LH- or forskolin-induced cAMP induction. The results of this study provide evidence for a facilitative action of the PKC effector system on hormonally stimulated cAMP production. Furthermore, PKC may be an important endogenous regulator of adenylate cyclase activity in porcine luteal cells.

The effects of the isoquinolinesulfonamide protein kinase inhibitors 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) and N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA1004) on CA1 responses in hippocampal slices of the rat were examined to clarify their mode of action, and also to further define the role of Ca(2+) -dependent kinases in long-term potentiation. Initially, the inhibitory potencies of H-7 and HA1004 against both protein kinase C and type II Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase were examined in standard in vitro phosphorylation assays. The apparent Ki values of H-7 and HA1004 for protein kinase C were 9 and 57 microM, respectively. In contrast, the Ki values of H-7 and HA1004 for type II calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase were 156 and 13 microM, respectively. These results indicate that H-7 is a more effective inhibitor of protein kinase C, whereas HA1004 is a more effective inhibitor of type II calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Following the induction of long-term potentiation, addition of 50 microM H-7 or HA1004 substantially increased the amplitude of the population spike in a control pathway, while producing no change or a slight increase in the spike amplitude in a previously potentiated long-term potentiation pathway. Moreover, H-7 (50 microM), but not HA1004, produced multiple population spikes in both pathways. Addition of a higher concentration of H-7 (300 microM) reduced the amplitude of the initial population spike but still produced multiple spikes. HA1004 (300 microM) typically produced effects similar to those observed with 50 microM H-7, increasing the amplitude of the control population spike and producing multiple spike activity in both pathways. In contrast to the differential concentration-dependent effects of H-7 on the population spike responses, qualitatively similar effects were observed at both low (50 microM) and high (300 microM) concentrations with regard to synaptic field responses. The initial slope of the population excitatory postsynaptic potential was significantly reduced by H-7, to a similar degree in both pathways. HA1004 produced a modest, but insignificant reduction in both pathways. These results, in conjunction with other reports, suggest that H-7 and HA1004 exert complex concentration-dependent effects with synchronously affect both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission. We hypothesize that reduction of the population excitatory postsynaptic potential and spike (300 microM H-7) is due to reduction of excitatory inputs, whereas enhancement of the population spike amplitude (50 microM H-7) and the production of multiple spikes are due to the reduction of GABA-mediated inhibitory inputs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

We showed previously that TRH down-regulates TRH receptor (TRH-R) mRNA in GH3 cells by a mechanism that appears to be mediated by protein kinase C. Here we show that vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) down-regulates TRH-R mRNA and present evidence that this action is mediated by protein kinase A. In GH3 cells, VIP caused a time- and concentration-dependent decrease in TRH-R mRNA. This VIP effect was simulated by 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP, forskolin, cholera toxin and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine. When cells were incubated with agents that elevate cAMP and TRH or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, the decrease in TRH-R mRNA was greater than with either agent alone. When cells were pre-incubated with H-7 [1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride], an inhibitor of protein kinases, the effects of VIP, TRH and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate were inhibited. We suggest that VIP, via protein kinase A, and TRH, via protein kinase C, dually regulate TRH-R mRNA.

In order to investigate the effect of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) on ciliary beat frequency (CBF) in human respiratory epithelium, cells were brushed from the inferior nasal turbinates of three groups of ten subjects: awake adults (aged 20-34 yrs), anaesthetized children (2-15 yrs) and anaesthetized adults (19-61 yrs). Cells from the awake adults were also studied after storage for 24 h in tissue culture medium. CBF was measured in vitro with a photometric technique at room temperature (22.0 +/- 1.5 degrees C). Samples were mounted in a perfusion chamber and challenged with either control solutions, dibutyryl cAMP (10(-4) or 10(-3) M), or the cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7). Dibutyryl cAMP (10(-3) M) caused a significant increase in CBF in all groups studied: awake adults (+1.1 Hz; p less than 0.01), anaesthetized children (+1.2 Hz; p less than 0.01), anaesthetized adults (+1.2 Hz; p less than 0.01), stored cells (+1.1 Hz; p less than 0.01). This response was inhibited by preincubation with H-7 (10(-4) and 10(-3) M). It is concluded that cAMP is a regulator of ciliary activity in human respiratory epithelium.

We have previously shown that HL-60 cells treated with 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2D3 in magnesium-deficient medium are committed to differentiate but do not express differentiation-related phenotypes. In the present study, we demonstrated that Mg2+ deprivation blocked the process of differentiation before the induction of lysozyme mRNA and that the process of HL-60 cell differentiation could be divided into two steps, i.e., a commitment step and a phenotypic expression step. We studied the effects of protein kinase A (PKA) and calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) modulators at each step. The results indicated that agonists of PKA enhanced both steps but that N-(2-[methylamino]ethyl-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide inhibited them. On the other hand, 1-oleyl-2-acetylglycerol and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate enhanced the commitment step but inhibited that of phenotypic expression. Staurosporine and 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine inhibited the commitment step and enhanced that of phenotypic expression. These results indicate that PKA acts as a positive regulatory signal and that PKC has a dual role in the process of HL-60 cell differentiation, i.e., as a positive regulatory signal in the commitment step and as a negative one in the phenotypic expression step. Recently, we have also shown that in K-562 cell differentiation into erythroid lineage, PKA may serve as a negative regulatory signal in both steps; however, PKC may act dually, namely as a negative regulatory signal in the commitment step and as a positive one in the phenotypic expression step.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

1. The involvement of protein phosphorylation in the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced bursting activity (BA) was evaluated in identified neurons of the snail. Euhadra peliomphala by examining the effect of various protein kinases and their inhibitors on the membrane properties induced by PTZ. 2. In neurons which normally exhibited spontaneous regular firing, PTZ elicited BA, the negative slope resistance (NSR) in the steady-state current (I)-voltage (V) relationship and a reduction of the delayed potassium current (IKD) in a dose-dependent manner. These were inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitors, protein kinase inhibitor isolated from rabbit muscle and N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide. 3. Intracellular injection of catalytic subunit (CS) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase enhanced PTZ-induced NSR and reduction of IKD, as well as a conversion of the BA to a long-lasting depolarization of the membrane, whereas a saturating dose of the CS occluded PTZ action on the NSR and IKD. 4. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), when intracellularly injected during the depolarizing phase of PTZ-induced bursting cycle, changed to a prolonged hyperpolarization of the membrane. This kinase also restored the PTZ-suppressed IKD nearly to the pre-PTZ level. However, when intracellular injection of CaMKII and application of N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide, a calmodulin inhibitor, to the inside and outside of the neuron were simultaneously carried out, neither post-burst hyperpolarization nor restoration of the IKD was observed. 5. Intracellular injection of calmodulin, together with calcium chloride, had little effect on both the BA and reduction of IKD induced by PTZ. 6. Simultaneous application of 40 microM 1-(5-isoquinolinsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine, which selectively suppressed the phosphatidylserine-dependent protein phosphorylation in extracts from Euhadra ganglia, to both the inside and outside of the neuron, did not produce any significant change in the membrane properties induced by PTX. Intracellular injection of protein kinase C also brought about no effect. 7. These findings suggest that PTZ stimulates cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation which, in turn, is involved in the development of NSR and reduction of IKD, leading to the depolarization of the membrane. In addition, we propose that the Ca2+ ions, increased during the depolarizing phase of the BA cycle, form a Ca2+/calmodulin complex and subsequent protein phosphorylation, coupled with the opening of potassium channels, leading to the membrane hyperpolarization.

Effects of a series of novel inhibitors of calmodulin or protein kinases on amylase release were studied in rat parotid slices. Amylase release induced by a cholinergic agonist, carbamylcholine, was inhibited by N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7), a calmodulin inhibitor, 1-(5-chloronaphthalen-1-sulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1, 4-diazepine (ML-9), a myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) inhibitor, and 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), an inhibitor of Ca(2+)-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C), while N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8), an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A), did not inhibit the release. On the other hand, amylase release induced by a beta-adrenergic agonist, isoproterenol, was inhibited only by H-8, but not by W-7, ML-9 or H-7. These results suggest that cholinergic stimulation evokes amylase release via the Ca(2+)-dependent system which involves calmodulin, MLCK and protein kinase C, while beta-adrenergic stimulation via the cyclic AMP-dependent system involves protein kinase A.
