In hog terminal bile duct cholecystokinin peptides caused an activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-PK) with cyclic AMP, followed by increase in Ca uptake of sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction (SR-F). By contrast, papaverine showed no activation of A-PK-induced Ca uptake by SR-F with cyclic AMP. The Ca uptake by SR-F was dependent on ATP and Mg2+, but the component phosphorylated was not the phosphoenzyme intermediate in Ca2+-ATPase. The effect of Ca uptake was blocked by the inclusion of a protein inhibitor of A-PK. The correlation coefficient between cyclic AMP-dependent SR-F phosphorylation and stimulated Ca uptake by the phosphorylated SR-F was 0.731 (P less than 0.01). These results suggest that one of the mechanisms by which CCK-4, CCK-8, and CCK-33 peptides relax isolated Oddi's sphincters of terminal bile ducts is activation of A-PK-induced Ca uptake by sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction and possibly also by plasma membrane.

The interaction of various cholecystokinin (CCK) peptides with the protein inhibitor (PK-I) of cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase (A-PK) has been studied. The order of the affinities (ED50) for relaxation of hog biliary muscle by a series of C-terminal peptides of CCK correlated with the order of the potencies for A-PK-catalyzed phosphorylation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum enriched fraction (SR-F) in the muscle. CCK-4 peptide inhibited the PK-I of A-PK. The apparent Km value of the peptide was 11.5 microM. Scatchard plot analysis for the binding of [14C]CCK-6 peptide to the PK-I showed a dissociation constant (Kd) of 11.2 microM. These results indicated that the Kd value agreed with the ED50 value of CCK-6 and the Km value of CCK-4. It is proposed that a receptor for CCK C-terminal peptides is probably a component in the PK-I; binding of the peptides to this site usually results in the relaxation by these allosteric inhibitors of the PK-I.

PTH-related peptide (PTHrP), which shares 8 of 13 NH2-terminal residues with PTH, causes similar biological effects and interacts with the same receptor as PTH. In the gastrointestinal tract, human PTH and PTHrP-(1-34) relax rat fundic strips. However, the level of their action and the receptor involved in this effect are unknown. The aims of this study were 1) to determine the effects of human PTH-(1-34), human PTHrP-(1-34), -(1-16), and -(7-34) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) on circular isolated smooth muscle cells from guinea pig ileum; 2) to study the intracellular pathways involved in these effects; and 3) and to characterize the receptors involved by using specific antagonists. Smooth muscle cells were dispersed by enzymatic digestion. Contraction was assessed by measuring the length of 50 cells and expressed as the percent decrease in cell length from the control value. The relaxing effects of PTH, PTHrP and analogs, VIP, or antagonists were expressed as a percentage of the maximal effect observed in their absence. VIP, PTH-(1-34), and PTHrP-(1-34), -(1-16), and -(7-34) had no effect by themselves on these cells. However, when cells were contracted by the sulfated C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (10 nM), VIP, PTH-(1-34), and PTHrP(1-34) inhibited the sulfated C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin-induced contraction in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas PTHrP-(1-16) and -(7-34) had no effect. The EC50 values of VIP, PTH-(1-34), and PTH-(1-34), and PTHrP-(1-34) were 7 nM, 20 pM, and 20 pM, respectively. The VIP antagonist ([D-P-Cl-Phe6,Leu17]VIP) inhibited VIP-, PTH-(1-34)-, and PTHrP(1-34)-induced relaxation, with IC50 values of 20, 500, and 400 pM, respectively. Likewise, the PTH/PTHrP antagonist [Tyr34-bovine PTH-(7-34)NH2] inhibited PTH-(1-34)-, PTHrP(1-34)-, and VIP-induced relaxation, with IC50 values of 1, 1, and 90 pM, respectively. Preincubation of cells with somatostatin, N-ethylmaleimide, and (R)-p-cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphothioate inhibited the PTH-(1-34), PTHrP(1-34)-, and VIP-induced relaxation. In conclusion, human PTH and PTHrP induce a relaxation of intestinal smooth muscle by a direct myogenic effect. This effect requires the 1-34 amino acid sequence and is mediated by the activation of adenylate cyclase and protein kinase-A. Interactions among PTH, PTHrP, and VIP indicate that they may cross-react with their respective receptors.

The gene encoding proglucagon is expressed predominantly in the pancreas and intestine. The physiological importance of glucagon secreted from the islets of Langerhans has engendered considerable interest in the molecular control of proglucagon gene transcription in the endocrine pancreas. In contrast, little is known about the molecular control of proglucagon gene expression in the intestine. The recent demonstration that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secreted from the intestine is a potent regulator of insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis has stimulated renewed interest in the factors that control GLP-1 synthesis in the intestinal L-cell. To develop a model for the analysis of intestinal proglucagon gene expression, we have targeted expression of a proglucagon gene-simian virus-40 large T-antigen fusion gene to enteroendocrine cells in transgenic mice. These mice develop intestinal tumors that were used to derive a novel cell line, designated GLUTag, that expresses the proglucagon gene and secretes immunoreactive GLP-1 in vitro. GLUTag cells demonstrate morphological characteristics of enteroendocrine cells by electron microscopy and are plurihormonal, as shown by immunocytochemistry and RNA analyses. GLUTag cells express the proglucagon and cholecystokinin genes, consistent with the pattern of lineage-specific enteroendocrine differentiation described for mouse intestine. Proglucagon gene expression was induced by activators of the protein kinase-A pathway, and a combination of messenger RNA half-life and nuclear run-on experiments demonstrated that the protein kinase-A-induction is mediated by an increase in proglucagon gene transcription. In contrast, activators of protein kinase-C stimulated secretion, but not biosynthesis of the PGDPs in GLUTag cell cultures. Analysis of proglucagon processing in GLUTag cells demonstrated the liberation of glucagon, oxyntomodulin, glicentin, and multiple forms of GLP-1. These observations provide evidence for the direct induction of proglucagon gene transcription by a cAMP-dependent pathway and suggest that the GLUTag cell line represents a useful model for the analysis of the molecular determinants of enteroendocrine gene expression.

This study reports on the use of a new sensitive assay of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity to examine the effect of cholecystokinin (CCK) on the cAMP second messenger cascade in rat pancreatic acini. Treatment of acini with both low (pM) and high (nM) concentrations of CCK was associated with an increase in cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. The increases in kinase activity were detected in the absence of phosphodiesterase inhibition, a condition required to detect a measurable increase in cellular cAMP in these cells. Furthermore, the cAMP cascade was dissociated from the secretory effects of CCK, since the CCK analogue, OPE, mediates enzyme secretion but does not increase cellular cAMP levels or kinase activity.

We examined the effects of FK506 on amylase secretion and intracellular pathway in stimulus secretion coupling in isolated pancreatic acini. Amylase release from isolated acini in response to cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) was suppressed by exposing acini to FK506. The suppressing effect of FK506 on amylase release from acini was dependent on the concentration of FK506 and the time of exposure to FK506. Amylase releases in response to 8-bromo-cAMP and vasoactive intestinal peptide and phorbol ester (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) were not suppressed when acini were exposed to FK506, suggesting that the cAMP-dependent protein kinase pathway and protein kinase C pathway were not affected by FK506. However, amylase release in response to calcium ionophore (4-bromo-A23187) was suppressed by FK506, whereas the increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration caused by 4-bromo-A23187 was not affected by FK506. These results suggest that FK506 suppressed secretagogue-stimulated amylase release in acini by altering Ca(++)-mediated intracellular pathways. Further, the property of CCK-8 binding site, CCK-8 stimulated inositol phosphates formation, rises in cytosolic free calcium concentration, and calcium efflux from acini were not suppressed by exposing acini to FK506. These findings indicate that FK506 suppresses amylase release by affecting postreceptor intracellular pathways that are mediated by Ca++ in stimulus secretion coupling.

Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a gastrointestinal hormone that acts through a G protein-coupled receptor to stimulate pancreatic enzyme secretion. In this work, we demonstrate that CCK stimulation of dispersed pancreatic acini results in increased tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins. This is mediated via a calcium-dependent pathway, also activated by a phenethyl ester analogue of CCK and calcium ionophores, and by a protein kinase C-dependent cascade, also activated by the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. All demonstrable stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation events were inhibited by genistein, with different subsets of proteins affected by staurosporine and H-7. The importance of tyrosine phosphorylation events in agonist-stimulated amylase secretion was studied using genistein and staurosporine as protein kinase inhibitors. Genistein inhibited the secretory response to CCK, its phenethyl ester analogue, and calcium ionophores, all known to stimulate secretion in a calcium-dependent fashion. In contrast, genistein had no effect on the secretory response to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, suggesting that the protein kinase C-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation events were not involved in the secretory mechanism. Furthermore, CCK-induced secretion was not affected by relatively specific protein kinase C inhibition by H-7, but was decreased by staurosporine, an inhibitor of both protein kinase C and tyrosine kinase activities in these cells. These results provide evidence that acinar cell tyrosine phosphorylation is stimulated by agonists acting via calcium-dependent and protein kinase C-dependent pathways, with only the calcium-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation cascade involved in triggering hormone-induced amylase release.

In order to establish a regulatory role for phosphoproteins in the process of receptor-stimulated Ca2+ mobilization, isolated pancreatic acinar cells, loaded with fura-2, were stimulated with cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK8) in the presence of either staurosporine, a general inhibitor of protein kinase activity, or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), an activator of protein kinase C. Staurosporine alone did not affect the average free cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i,av) in a suspension of acinar cells. However, in the presence of 1.0 microM staurosporine the stimulatory effect of submaximal concentrations of CCK8 was significantly enhanced. The potentiating effect of the inhibitor was paralleled by the increased production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. In addition, staurosporine evoked a transient increase in [Ca2+]i,av in cells prestimulated with a submaximal concentration of CCK8. The data obtained with staurosporine indicate that CCK8-stimulated phosphorylations exert a negative feedback role in the process of receptor-mediated Ca2+ mobilization. The involvement of protein kinase C was investigated by studying the effects of TPA on CCK8-induced Ca2+ mobilization. The phorbol ester induced a rightward shift of the dose/response curve for the CCK8-evoked increase in [Ca2+]i,av, which, in contrast to the unlimited shift obtained with the receptor antagonist D-lorglumide, reached a maximum of approximately one order of a magnitude at 10 nM TPA. The inhibitory effect of TPA was completely overcome by CCK8 at concentrations at or beyond 10 nM. This observation has led to the hypothesis that protein kinase C, directly or indirectly, converts the CCK receptor from a high-affinity state to a low-affinity state. Substantial evidence in favour of this hypothesis was provided by the observation that the increase in [Ca2+]i,av evoked by the CCK8 analogue JMV-180, which acts as an agonist at the high-affinity receptor, was completely blocked by TPA pretreatment. TPA also evoked a rightward shift of the dose/response curve for the carbachol-induced increase in [Ca2+]i,av, indicating that the protein-kinase-C-mediated transition of the affinity state of receptors is a more general phenomenon. In the presence of submaximal CCK8 concentrations, TPA dose-dependently decreased the poststimulatory elevated [Ca2+]i,av to the prestimulatory level, indicating that protein kinase C also inhibits the process of sustained Ca2+ mobilization. The effects of TPA were counteracted by staurosporine, suggesting that the effects of the inhibitor itself were indeed due to inhibition of the receptor-mediated activation of protein kinase C.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGMP kinase) has been implicated in the regulation of the cytosolic calcium level ([Ca2+]i). In Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably transfected with the cGMP kinase I alpha (CHO-cGK cells), cGMP kinase suppressed the thrombin-induced increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and [Ca2+]i (Ruth, P., Wang, G.-X., Boekhoff, I., May, B., Pfeifer, A., Penner, R., Korth, M., Breer, H., and Hofmann, F. (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 90, 2623-2627). Cholecystokinin activated intracellular calcium release via a pertussis toxin (PTX)-insensitive pathway in CHO-cGK cells. cGMP kinase did not attenuate the CCK-stimulated [Ca2+]i. In contrast, cGMP kinase suppressed calcium influx stimulated by insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 (IGF-1 and IGF-2) via PTX-sensitive pathways. The effects of PTX and cGMP kinase on [Ca2+]i were not additive. 8-Bromo-cGMP had no effect on [Ca2+]i stimulated by IGF-1 or IGF-2 in wild type CHO cells. These results suggested that cGMP kinase inhibited the different signaling pathways by the phosphorylation of a PTX-sensitive G protein. cGMP kinase phosphorylated the alpha subunits of Gi1, Gi2, and Gi3 in vitro. Phosphorylation stoichiometry was 0.4 mol of phosphate/mol of G alpha i1 after reconstitution of heterotrimeric Gi1 in phospholipid vesicles. The alpha subunit of Gi was also phosphorylated in vivo. These results show that cGMP kinase blocks transduction of distinct hormone pathways that signal via PTX-sensitive Gi proteins.

Fuel metabolism generates multiple signals that interact to stimulate insulin secretion. These studies explored the mechanism by which fuels activate phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis and the role of this signal transduction pathway in fuel-stimulated insulin secretion. High potassium (30 mM), which depolarizes the membrane and increases Ca2+ influx, caused only a transient monophasic release of insulin. In contrast, glucose (20 mM) or monomethylsuccinate (MMSucc; 10 mM) markedly stimulated a sustained insulin secretory response, indicating that fuel metabolism generates a signal(s) in addition to Ca2+ influx that is required for a sustained secretory response. On the other hand, diazoxide, an ATP-sensitive K+ channel activator that prevents membrane depolarization and Ca2+ influx in response to fuel metabolism, reduced the secretory responses to glucose and MMSucc to baseline levels, demonstrating that Ca2+ influx was essential to fuel-stimulated insulin secretion. The further addition of high K+ bypassed the diazoxide block and restored insulin secretory rates. The insulin secretory response to glucose or MMSucc in the presence of diazoxide and K+ was inhibited by the Ca2+ channel antagonist nitrendipine and the protein kinase-C inhibitor staurosporine. Changes in PI hydrolysis paralleled those in insulin secretion. High potassium alone induced only a modest 2.5-fold increase in inositol phosphate accumulation. This response was significantly less than that to glucose or MMSucc, which increased inositol phosphate accumulation by 6.8- or 5.2-fold, respectively. Like its effect on secretion, diazoxide markedly reduced glucose- or MMSucc-stimulated PI hydrolysis, and this inhibition was reversed with high K+. In contrast, diazoxide had no effect on receptor-activated PI hydrolysis stimulated by 100 nM cholecystokinin (CCK), and the effects of CCK were not dependent on added fuel, indicating that fuel and CCK activate PI hydrolysis by distinct pathways. These findings demonstrate that mitochondrial metabolism of glucose or MMSucc generates a signal(s) that interacts with Ca2+ influx to stimulate PI hydrolysis and sustained insulin secretion. This pathway of fuel-activated PI hydrolysis is distinct from that of CCK receptor-activated PI hydrolysis. These studies suggest that fuel-activated PI hydrolysis plays an important role in fuel-stimulated insulin secretion.
