Pretreatment of rats with tranexamic acid inhibited the rapid lowering of the plasma levels of acetone/kaolin-activated prekallikrein proactivator and prekallikrein caused by intravenous injection of dextran, but did not inhibit the reduction in the level of plasminogen, and potentiated the lowering of high molecular weight kininogen. By acetone/kaolin activation of normal rat plasma a mixture of surface-bound factor XIIa and unbound XIIf was obtained, and a BAEe-esterase (MW about 47,000) possessing weak kininogenase activity was present in addition to kallikrein. In activated plasma from dextran-treated rats the cleavage of XIIa was strongly reduced, and the second esterase was almost absent. It is suggested that dextran induces the loss of a plasma factor which is important for the cleavage of factor XIIa in the adopted procedure. This factor was not high molecular weight kininogen, and the lowering of plasminogen was too small to account for the reduction in PKA-activity.

We have studied the effect of protein kinase C and protein kinase A activation, and phosphatase inhibition on two different stimuli with distinct mechanisms of action. The first stimulus is compound 48/80, and its action is mediated probably by a Gi-protein, while the other is sodium fluoride, which unspecifically activates G-proteins. We established a comparative study because the action of compound 48/80 is calcium-independent, while fluoride is strictly calcium-dependent. The activation of protein kinase C was attained with the phorbol esther 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, protein kinase A was activated by increasing cAMP levels with forskolin or rolipram, and the phosphatase activity was inhibited with okadaic acid (OA), which inhibits phosphatases type 1 and 2A. Our results show that OA enhances the response to fluoride and compound 48/80 in the absence of calcium, and we conclude that calcium has a negative feedback role on the cell response. Protein kinase A activation strongly inhibits the response to fluoride, and the results show a positive regulation of protein kinase C and a negative regulation of protein kinase A over fluoride response. As previously reported by other authors for the ionophore A23187, TPA notably potentiates the response to fluoride, which supports its possible modulatory role on extracellular calcium-dependent stimuli.

The effects of the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (Iso) on cells of the inner stripe portion of the rabbit outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi) grown in primary culture were examined using whole cell patch-clamp techniques and measurements of intracellular pH (pHi) and Ca2+. Iso (10(-6) M) increased the cellular Cl- conductance, and this effect was mimicked by treatment of the cells with dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP, 10(-5) M) or protein kinase A (PKA, 0.4 U/ml). Iso did not alter the baseline pHi, but it did increase the activity of both the Cl-/HCO3- antiporter and the H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase). The increase in Cl-/HCO3- antiporter rate was mimicked by dibutyryl-cAMP plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (cAMP + IBMX, 10(-4) M + 10(-5) M). However, the Iso-induced stimulation of the H(+)-ATPase activity was not mimicked by cAMP + IBMX. Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ showed that Iso also increased intracellular Ca2+ levels. This response was not dependent on extracellular Ca2+, nor did cAMP + IBMX appreciably alter intracellular Ca2+. Consequently, we postulate that beta-adrenergic agonists are potential stimulators of OMCDi H+ secretion. These agonists stimulate cellular HCO3- efflux through a signal transduction pathway involving cAMP and PKA. However, a different signal transduction pathway appears to mediate the stimulation of cellular H+ efflux. This second pathway may involve an elevation of intracellular Ca2+.

The covalent modification of receptor proteins via phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is one of the principal mechanisms controlling carbohydrate metabolism and is known to be regulated by various protein kinases. Recent studies indicated that many hormones may exert their effects on cellular metabolism by regulating intracellular c-AMP levels and by activating a c-AMP dependent protein kinase, i.e., protein kinase A. The metabolic disturbances during sepsis are characterized by an initial hyperglycemia followed by a progressive hypoglycemia and a depletion of hepatic glycogen content. The latter is coupled with a slowdown in glycogenesis, an accelerated glycogenolysis, and a depression in gluconeogenesis in the liver. Since the liver is the major organ that regulates the homeostatic level of blood glucose, it is conceivable that the sepsis-induced glucose dyshomeostasis might be mediated by changes in protein kinase activity and the kinetic characteristics of enzymes. The present experiment was designed to study the correlation between protein kinase A and the pathophysiology of hepatic glucose dyshomeostasis during sepsis. Sepsis was induced in rats by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Late sepsis occurred 18 hours after CLP. Protein kinase A was extracted from the rat livers by acid precipitation and ammonium sulfate fractionation, and then partially purified by DEAE-cellulose. The results show that in the late sepsis, type-I protein kinase A (eluted at low ionic strength) activity was significantly decreased by 34-52% (P < 0.01). The kinetic parameters such as Vmax's for ATP, histone, and c-AMP were also significantly decreased from the control values of 6.1 +/- 0.9, 5.4 +/- 0.8, and 5.1 +/- 1.9 nmoles/mg.min. to 3.6 +/- 0.5, 2.8 +/- 0.3, and 2.5 +/- 0.5 nmoles/mg.min., respectively. Analysis using Hill's equation indicates that the S0.5 and n (Hill coefficient) values of the various substrates and activators for type-I protein kinase A remained unchanged. In the case of type-II protein kinase A (eluted at high ionic strength), the Vmax, S0.5, and n values for ATP, histone, and c-AMP were unchanged during late sepsis. The results of the present study indicate that the activities and kinetic characteristics of type I protein kinase A in rat liver are modified during late sepsis. Since protein kinase A is known to regulate glucose metabolism through adrenergic receptor mediation, these findings may have a pathophysiological significance in the understanding of hepatic glucose dyshomeostasis during sepsis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Regulation of Cl conductance by protein kinase A may play a role in control of endosomal acidification [Bae, H.-R., & Verkman, A. S. (1990) Nature, 348, 637-639]. To investigate the mechanism of kinase A action, cell-free measurements of Cl transport and membrane protein phosphorylation were carried out in apical endocytic vesicles from rabbit kidney proximal tubule. Cl transport was measured by a stopped-flow quenching assay in endosomes labeled in vivo with the fluorescent Cl indicator 6-methoxy-N-(3-sulfopropyl)quinolinium. Phosphorylation was studied in a purified endosomal preparation by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography of membrane proteins labeled by [gamma-32P]ATP. Endosomes had a permeability (PCl) for conductive Cl transport of 3.1 x 10(-8) cm/s at 23 degrees C which was stilbene inhibitable. PCl was increased by 90 +/- 20% by a 10-min preincubation with the catalytic subunit of kinase A (PKA, 10 units/mL) and MgATP (0.5 mM) with anion selectivity Cl greater than I greater than Br. The increase in PCl was blocked by 100 microM N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8) and was reversed by addition of alkaline phosphatase (AP, 40 units/mL) after incubation with PKA and MgATP; the increase in PCl was not blocked by pretreatment with AP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The activities of Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent, Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent, and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (CaM-KII, PKC, and PKA, respectively) were determined in rat brains after global ischemia. Both CaM-KII and PKC activities were significantly depressed in both hippocampal and cerebral cortical regions of ischemic animals, whereas no change was detected in PKA activity. The loss of CaM-KII activity was more dramatic and more sustained than the loss of PKC activity and correlated with the duration of ischemia. These decreases in enzyme activity were found in both supernatant and pellet fractions from crude homogenates. When the supernatant and pellet were analyzed for the amount of CaM-KII 50-kDa protein, a significant decrease was detected in supernatant fractions that paralleled a gain in the amount of CaM-KII in the pellet. Thus, the loss of CaM-KII activity in the supernatant can be explained by translocation of the enzyme to the pellet. Whether inactivation of CaM-KII occurs during or after the enzyme translocates from the supernatant to the pellet is unknown. Our results indicate that loss in CaM-KII activity parallels neuronal damage associated with ischemia; down-regulation of CaM-KII activity coincided with translocation of the enzyme to the particulate fraction, and it is proposed that this may be, in fact, a mechanism for controlling excessive CaM-KII phosphorylation.

Purified internal platelet membranes were treated with the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A to determine its effect on inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-mediated Ca2+ release. Release kinetics were monitored using rhod-2, a Ca(2+)-specific fluorophore. Protein kinase A maximally inhibited the rate of IP3-mediated Ca2+ release by approximately 30% at saturating IP3 (10 microM). This inhibition was eliminated by pretreatment with a specific kinase inhibitor peptide. Partial purification of the platelet IP3 receptor showed that both endogenous kinases and added A kinase directly phosphorylate the receptor. Since the IP3 receptor is phosphorylated in the absence of added kinase, the observed inhibition (30%) by protein kinase A does not represent the maximal effect of phosphorylation.

Chloride channels at the apical membrane of intestinal epithelial cells are involved in the excessive fluid secretion in diarrhea and diminished secretion in cystic fibrosis (CF). Diarrhea induced by heat-stable toxin from Escherichia coli is associated with elevated guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) in intestinal epithelial cells, but it is unknown whether chloride secretion is regulated by cGMP directly or via cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). Single-channel recordings (inside-out excised patches) from the apical membrane of T84 cells reveal a 10-pS chloride channel with a linear current-voltage relationship, which is opened when an endogenous membrane-bound PKG is activated with ATP (1 mM) and cGMP (100 microM). Soluble PKG (200 nM) isolated from bovine lung, added to the intracellular face of patches, also opens this channel. No activation occurs with Ringer solution alone or only ATP or cGMP. Addition of nonhydrolyzable forms of ATP (AMP-PNP, 1 mM) or a combination of ATP, cGMP, plus H-8 (5 microM), an inhibitor of PKG, also does not stimulate the channel. The catalytic subunit of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic mono-phosphate-dependent protein kinase (PKA, 200 nM, with 1 mM ATP) activates a channel with similar characteristics. The 10 pS channel has a PNa/PCl ratio of 0.06, an anion selectivity of Br- (1.2) greater than Cl- (1.0) greater than I- (0.8) greater than F- (0.4), and a low affinity for the chloride channel blockers, 4,4-dinitrostilbene-2,2-disulfonic acid and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The modulation of ion transport pathways in filter-grown monolayers of the Cl(-)-secreting subclone (19A) of the human colon carcinoma cell line HT-29 by muscarinic stimulation was studied by combined Ussing chamber and microimpalement experiments. Basolateral addition of 10(-4) M carbachol induced a complex poly-phasic change of the cell potential consisting of (i) a fast and short (30-sec) depolarization of 15 +/- 1 mV from a resting value of -52 +/- 1 mV and an increase of the fractional resistance of the apical membrane (first phase), (ii) a repolarization of 22 +/- 1 mV leading to a hyperpolarization of the cell (second phase), (iii) a depolarization of 11 +/- 1 mV and a decrease of the fractional resistance of the apical membrane (the third phase), (iv) and sometimes, a hyperpolarization of 6 +/- 1 mV and an increase of the fractional resistance of the apical membrane (fourth phase). The transepithelial potential increased with a peak value of 2.4 +/- 0.3 mV (basolateral side positive). The transepithelial PD started to increase (serosa positive), coinciding with the start of the second phase of the intracellular potential change, and continued to increase during the third phase. Ion replacements and electrical circuit analyses indicate that the first phase is caused by increase of the Cl- conductance in the apical and basolateral membrane, the second phase by increased K+ conductance of the basolateral membrane, and the third phase and the fourth phase by increase and decrease, respectively, of an apical Cl- conductance. The first and second phase of the carbachol effect could be elicited also by ionomycin. They were strongly reduced by EGTA. Phorbol dibutyrate (PDB) induced a sustained depolarization of the cell and a decrease of the apical fractional resistance. The results suggest that two different types of Cl- channels are involved in the carbachol response: one Ca2+ dependent and a second which may be PKC sensitive. In the presence of a supramaximal concentration of forskolin, carbachol evoked a further increase of the apical Cl- conductance. It is concluded that the short-lasting carbachol/Ca(2+)-dependent Cl- conductance is different from the forskolin-activated conductance. The increase of the Cl- conductance in the presence of forskolin by carbachol may be due to activation of different Cl- channels or to modulation of the PKA-activated Cl- channels by activated PKC.

During mitosis the lamins are found in a hyperphosphorylated and soluble state. p34cdc2 kinase (MPF), a protein kinase complex with a pivotal role during mitosis, has been found to phosphorylate the lamins and, in some cases, though not all, to cause depolymerization of the lamina in vitro. Due to the variety of protein interactions in the lamina, there is a probable requirement for multiple enzyme activities to effect its breakdown in mitosis. Using nuclear ghosts as substrate, we have fractionated a Xenopus mitotic extract into a lamin-releasing fraction (p34cdc2 kinase) and a fraction that inhibits p34cdc2 kinase-mediated lamin release if the nuclear ghosts are first preincubated in it. The lamin-release-inhibiting activity in the p34cdc2 kinase-depleted mitotic extract is, in turn, inhibited if PKI, a protein kinase inhibitor specific for PKA, is included in the preincubation reaction mixture. Furthermore, a similar degree of inhibition can be achieved by using purified PKA to preincubate the nuclear ghosts. This suggests that dephosphorylation of PKA substrate sites is necessary for lamin depolymerization.
