Flavonols are dietary compounds widely distributed in plants and characterized by a 2-phenyl-benzo(alpha)pyrane nucleus possessing hydroxyl and ketone groups at positions 3 and 4, respectively. Kaempferol, quercetin, and myricetin are flavonols that are further mono-, di-, or trihydroxylated on the phenyl ring, respectively. To test whether these ingested flavonols might exert a direct secretory effect on intestinal epithelial cells, monolayers of the T84 colonocyte cell line were mounted in Ussing chambers and examined for ion transport response. Twenty minutes after addition of 100 microM quercetin to either the serosal or mucosal side, the short-circuit current change was maximal at 16.6 microA/cm2. Kaempferol was less potent than quercetin, while myricetin and glycosylated quercetin (rutin) did not induce secretion. The secretion induced by quercetin did not seem to be mediated by the reactive oxygen species generated by quercetin through auto-oxidation and/or redox cycling (superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, and the hydroxyl radical) because it was neither enhanced by iron, nor inhibited by desferroxamine B or catalase (alone or in combination with superoxide dismutase). Like vasoactive intestinal peptide, quercetin induced a secretory response that was inhibited by barium chloride and bumetanide, and which exhibited synergism with carbachol. Quercetin also stimulated a modest increase in intracellular cAMP levels and the phosphorylation of endogenous protein substrates for cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Thus, quercetin is a potent stimulus of colonocyte secretion that resembles secretagogues which act via a cAMP-mediated signaling pathway.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) kinase (E.C. 2.7.1.68) has been purified about 1200-fold from rat liver plasma membranes, taking advantage of affinity chromatography on quercetin-Sepharose as a novel step. The purified PIP kinase showed no contamination by the following enzyme activities: phosphatidylinositol (PI) kinase (EC 2.7.1.67), protein kinase C (EC 2.7.1.-), diacylglycerol kinase (EC 2.7.1.-), phospholipase C (EC 3.1.4.11), protein-tyrosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.112), alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), triphosphoinositide phosphomonoesterase (EC 3.1.3.36), adenylate kinase (EC 2.7.4.3) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37). The liver membrane enzyme requires high Mg2+ concentrations with a KM value of 10 mM. Ca2+ or Mn2+ could replace Mg2+ to a certain, though small, extent. Apparent KM values with respect to PIP and ATP were 10 and 65 microM, respectively. GTP was slightly utilized by the kinase as phosphate donor while CTP was not. Quercetin inhibited the enzyme with Ki = 34 microM. Extending our previous observations (Urumow, T. and Wieland, O.H. (1986) FEBS Lett. 207, 253-257 and Urumow, T. and Wieland, O.H. (1988) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 972, 232-238) [gamma S]pppG still stimulated the PIP kinase in extracts of solubilized liver membranes. 20-40% (NH4)2SO4 precipitation of the membrane extracts yielded a fraction that contained the bulk of enzyme activity but did not respond to stimulation by [gamma S]pppG any longer. This was restored by recombination with a protein fraction collected at 40-70% (NH4)2SO4 saturation, presumably containing a GTP binding protein and/or some other factor separated from the PIP kinase. In the reconstituted system [gamma S]pppG stimulated PIP kinase in a concentration dependent manner with maximal activation at 5 microM. This effect was not mimicked by [gamma S]pppA and was blocked by [beta S]ppG. These results strongly support our view that in liver membranes PIP kinase is regulated by a G-protein.

Human cytomegalovirus, a DNA virus whose genome contains a fragment of transforming DNA, induces a threonine-serine protein kinase having a molecular mass of 68 kDa (p68). p68 was extracted from cells 96-144 h after infection, and immunoprecipitated with a monoclonal antibody (F6b). Antibody-enzyme complexes were immobilized on heat/formaldehyde-inactivated Staphylococcus aureus. The best substrates for p68 were acidic proteins, phosvitin and casein. Glycogen synthase, phosphorylase alpha and histones were phosphorylated at rates not higher than 1-4% that obtained with phosvitin as substrate. ATP and GTP were equally good substrates of p68. p68 is able to autophosphorylate at the same residues (i.e. threonine and serine) as the protein substrates. Autophosphorylation does not seem to represent an intermediate in substrate phosphorylation. The protein kinase activity of p68 was not enhanced by cAMP, calcium ions, or polyamines like spermine or spermidine. Only at low Mg2+ concentration spermine enhanced by 68% the rate of casein phosphorylation. Heparin, a potent inhibitor of casein kinase II, inhibits p68 activity too, but ten-times higher concentrations were required for the same degree of inhibition. Quercetin, a bioflavonoid, acts as a strong inhibitor of p68 protein kinase activity. The inhibitory effect of quercetin was competitive towards the nucleotide substrate (Ki = 2.8 microM), and non-competitive towards the protein substrate (Ki = 15 microM).

An antiserum directed against amino acid residues 37-55 [anti-mos (37-55) serum] of the predicted v-mos sequence was used to precipitate p37mos from Moloney murine sarcoma virus-124 (Mo-MuSV-124) acutely infected 3T3 cells. Proteins with sizes ranging from p37mos to 43 kDa (p43) were found to be phosphorylated when anti-mos (37-55) immune complexes containing p37mos were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mn2+. The phosphorylation of p37mos and p43 could be specifically blocked when the anti-mos (37-55) serum was incubated with 37-55 cyclic mos peptide prior to immunoprecipitation, but not if the serum was preincubated with an unrelated peptide representing amino acids of the myc protein sequence. Anti-mos (37-55) immune complexes from uninfected 3T3 cells did not produce any phosphorylated proteins the size of p37mos or p43. However, a 50-kDa protein (p50) was phosphorylated in both unblocked and mos peptide-blocked anti-mos (37-55) immune complexes from infected 3T3 cells, and in immune complexes from uninfected cells. Quercetin, an inhibitor of some protein kinases, inhibited the kinase phosphorylating p50 but not the kinase phosphorylating p37mos and p43. Preabsorption of the cell extract prior to immunoprecipitation with an excess of formalin-fixed Staphylococcus aureus, complexed with preimmune normal rabbit serum IgG, specifically removed the kinase phosphorylating p50. The amount of in vitro phosphorylated p37mos and p43 in the immune-complex kinase assay reached a maximum in extracts of 3T3 cells 2-3 days postinfection with Mo-MuSV 124 but decreased to trace levels after 5 days. Metabolically and in vitro phosphorylated p37mos generated an identical pattern of phosphopeptides upon partial V8 protease digestion. Based on peptide mapping and a kinetic analysis of the in vitro phosphorylation reaction, p37mos appears to be a precursor to the p43 phosphorylated species. Phosphoamino acid analyses revealed only phosphoserine in in vitro phosphorylated p37mos and p43mos. It was concluded that p37mos is closely associated with a serine kinase activity and that the in vitro phosphorylation of p37mos may lead to formation of a highly modified mos protein (p43) by way of superphosphorylation.

Bovine thyroid 100,000 X g supernatant contained diacylglycerol-activated, calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). The protein kinase C was partially purified using ion-exchange chromatography and characterized. Substrate specificity studies revealed that the enzyme was most active when histone F1 was used as substrate. The thyroid protein kinase C was not stimulated by Ca2+ or phosphatidylserine (PS), but was stimulated by the combination of the two by 570%. Diolein stimulated the kinase by increasing its sensitivity to Ca2+. Other phospholipids could not substitute for PS and were ineffective in stimulating the protein kinase C in the absence of diolein. However, in the presence of diolein some of the other phospholipids were stimulatory albeit not to the extent of PS. Quercitin, a protein kinase C inhibitor in other systems, inhibited the thyroid enzyme in a dose-related manner. Protein kinase C could also be demonstrated using endogenous thyroid proteins as substrate. Separation of these 32P-labelled proteins by electrophoresis and subsequent autoradiography revealed that three proteins were phosphorylated by the protein kinase C of approximate molecular weights 60,000, 45,000, and less than 29,000. These results offer a possible mechanism by which Ca2+ and/or diacylglycerol effects may be mediated in thyroid.

Quercetin (3,3',4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone) has been shown to inhibit a variety of enzymes including the calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) in vivo and in vitro. We show that this compound synergistically enhances the antiproliferative activity of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) and nitrogen mustard. Quercetin does not affect the repair of DNA interstrand cross-links introduced by cis-DDP. Long-term exposure to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), which reduces total protein kinase C activity, also amplifies the growth-inhibitory effect of cis-DDP and acts synergistically with quercetin. A synergism is also observed if tamoxifen or staurosporine are combined with cis-DDP. For both drugs the dose-effect curves for the inhibition of protein kinase C closely resemble the dose-effect curves for the antiproliferative activities. Although alternative mechanisms cannot be definitively excluded, the effects of quercetin, TPA, tamoxifen and staurosporine may result from the inhibition of protein kinase C.

Cytosolic casein kinase type II activity has been identified in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells heterotransplanted into athymic nude mice. Sephacryl S-300 chromatography of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 tumor cytosols revealed a major peak of casein kinase activity with an estimated molecular weight of 150,000. This peak was further characterized and optimal conditions for breast tumor casein kinase activity were established. Polylysine (10 micrograms) acted as a potent stimulator with casein as the phosphate acceptor protein. This enzyme used both ATP and GTP as phosphate donors and the Km for GTP was 10 microM. The rate of phosphorylation with increasing concentrations of [gamma-32p]GTP revealed typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics and Vmax was approached at a concentration of 30 microM GTP. MgCl2 stimulated enzyme activity at concentrations between 10-20 mM. Quercetin, a bioflavonoid, inhibited casein kinase type II activity in a dose dependent manner. MCF-7 (hormone-dependent) human breast cancer cells (2-3 X 10(6)) were inoculated into the mammary fat pads of nude mice, supplemented with a 0.5 mg estradiol pellet. To determine the influence of various regulatory agents on casein kinase activity in vivo, tumor-bearing mice were treated for five days with estradiol, progesterone, dexamethasone or tamoxifen. Casein kinase type II was partially purified by gel filtration on a Sephacryl S-300 column and assayed in the presence of polylysine and casein. Dexamethasone treatment significantly decreased casein kinase II activity in MCF-7 tumors, which are receptor-positive for estrogen, androgen and glucocorticoid receptors.

Quercetin, a naturally occurring bioflavonoid inhibited the activities of phosphorylase kinase and a partially purified tyrosine protein kinase from rat lung. The inhibition was rapid and concentration dependent. Quercetin at 100 microM inhibited the activities of phosphorylase kinase and tyrosine protein kinase by about 95 and 80-90 percent respectively. ATP reversed the quercetin mediated inhibition of tyrosine protein kinase but not of phosphorylase kinase. These data suggest that quercetin has differential effect on different protein kinase activities and it may be used as a tool to probe the role of various protein kinases in cell function.

The inhibitory action of the flavonoid quercetin has been examined on the calcium-transport ATPase of synaptosomal vesicles and compared to that of two other flavonoids, morin and rutin. We have found that while quercetin caused a 50% inhibition of calcium transport at a concentration of 15 microM, morin and rutin had similar effects at concentrations of about 200 microM. A similar order of potency was observed also for ATP hydrolysis, though at higher concentrations. Quercetin also strongly inhibited phosphorylation of membrane proteins by ATP in synaptosomal vesicles. Rutin and morin had an almost negligible effect on membrane protein phosphorylation. The order of inhibitory potency of the flavonoids on the Ca2+-transport ATPase from synaptosomal vesicles: quercetin greater than morin greater than rutin, could be linked to their possible solubility in the membrane lipid phase since: (1) it paralleled their partitioning between a mixture of oil and water; (2) it paralleled their uptake from the reaction mixture by synaptosomal vesicles and phosphatidylcholine liposomes; (3) they had almost equal potency as inhibitors of the water soluble system of histone phosphorylation by protein kinase.

Calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (Ca, PL-PK) activity is detectable in mouse epidermis cytosol. It can be stimulated in vitro by complete and incomplete tumor promoters (12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and 12-0-retinoylphorbol-13-acetate (RPA], respectively. Effective inhibition of the enzyme activity is achieved with quercetin and phloretin, whereas the lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase inhibitors nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and esculetin show just weak or no inhibition. Quercetin inhibits the lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase equally well as the Ca, PL-PK, whereas the strong Ca, PL-PK inhibitor phloretin is absolutely ineffective in inhibiting the lipoxygenase/cyclooxygenase. The application of these inhibitors in differentiating tumor promoter induced effects in vivo is proposed.
