The existence and activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase in isolated pancreatic acini have been demonstrated. Immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation revealed two forms of MAP kinase in pancreatic acini, with relative molecular masses of approximately 42 and 44 kDa. Both forms of MAP kinase were activated by
cholecystokinin
(
CCK
). The threshold concentration of
CCK
was approximately 3 pM, and the maximal effect occurred at 1 nM, which enhanced MAP kinase activity by 2.5-fold, as determined in polyacrylamide gel copolymerized with substrate myelin basic protein. Activation of MAP kinase by
CCK
was rapid, reaching a maximum within 5-10 min that subsequently declined. Bombesin and carbachol but not secretin or vasoactive intestinal peptide also activated MAP kinase.
CCK
-induced activation of MAP kinase may be mediated by
protein kinase C
, since 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) mimicked the effect of
CCK
and staurosporine concentration dependently inhibited the action of
CCK
. Treatment of acini with thapsigargin, ionomycin, or ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid did not influence MAP kinase, indicating that mobilization of intracellular calcium by
CCK
is not important in activation of acinar MAP kinase.
CCK
and TPA increased tyrosine phosphorylation of both 42- and 44-kDa forms. Genistein and tyrphostin 23, the inhibitors of tyrosine kinase, suppressed the activation of MAP kinase by
CCK
. In conclusion, MAP kinase in pancreatic acini is activated by agonists related to hydrolysis of phosphoinositide, via a mechanism involving
protein kinase C
and tyrosine kinase.

High-resolution large-scale two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) combined with computer-assisted image analysis was used to construct a database of secretagogue/second messenger-induced phosphoprotein modifications in intact rat pancreatic acinar cells. Isolated acini were labeled with 32Pi, exposed to hormones and other test agents, and subjected to large-scale 2D-PAGE and autoradiography. This procedure resolved 500 phosphoproteins in pancreatic acinar whole cell lysates, approximately 90% of which were localized in the soluble fraction of centrifuged samples. Soluble proteins were further characterized as to heat and acid stability.
Cholecystokinin
(
CCK
), carbachol, and bombesin altered the phosphorylation state of about 27 proteins with both increases and decreases observed. Subsets of proteins were phosphorylated in response to phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), calcium ionophore A-23187, and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) analogue 8-bromo-cAMP. One of these proteins was identified as the myristoylated, alanine-rich, C-kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein by immunoprecipitation. The time course and dose response of phosphorylation changes due to
CCK
showed considerable variation between proteins, although a temporal hierarchy of phosphorylation events was clearly exhibited. Particularly striking was the rapid dephosphorylation within 30 s of a 19-kDa soluble protein to a minimum of 20 +/- 1% of control. Increased phosphorylation of the MARCKS and other TPA-regulated proteins suggests that
CCK
, carbachol, bombesin, and the
CCK
partial agonist, JMV-180, all activate
protein kinase C
in intact acini.

Cholecystokinin
(
CCK
) analogs, JMV-180 and OPE, release Ca2+ from intracellular stores and induce oscillations in the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), but do not generate a detectable rise in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) levels. In contrast, high concentrations of
CCK
elevate InsP3, as well [Ca2+]i, to a peak which decreases to near basal levels without oscillations. The mechanisms which underlie inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations observed with high
CCK
concentrations are unclear, but are believed to involve a low-affinity
CCK
receptor state. Alternately,
CCK
analogs may be weak partial agonists of the phospholipase C pathway, whereas native
CCK
, as a full agonist of this pathway, stimulates low levels of
protein kinase C
(
PKC
) activity. Preincubation of acini with 1 nM 12 O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) for 15 min at 37 degrees C did not affect OPE binding to acini, but abolished OPE-induced (at 1 microM) [Ca2+]i oscillations without affecting the initial [Ca2+]i spike. These transformed OPE-induced [Ca2+]i responses mimicked those induced by supramaximal
CCK
octapeptide (
CCK
-8) concentrations. Inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillations by 1 nM TPA was reversed by the
PKC
inhibitor staurosporine (0.2 microM). After [Ca2+]i oscillations were induced with OPE or low concentrations of
CCK
-8 (20 pM), 1 nM TPA caused a gradual slowing of oscillation frequency over 15-20 min without affecting [Ca2+]i spike amplitude. In contrast, 1 microM TPA inhibited OPE binding and caused a more generalized inhibition of OPE- and
CCK
-evoked Ca2+ signals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Gastrin and
cholecystokinin
(
CCK
) have proven trophic effects on the gut. We have previously demonstrated that these peptides stimulate an early event in cellular proliferation, namely ornithine decarboxylase activity (ODC), in a rat exocrine pancreatic cell line AR4-2J. Furthermore, this effect is mediated through a G/CCKB receptor. Thus, in the present study we sought to examine the signal transduction mechanisms linked to the G/CCKB receptor occupancy. Both gastrin and
CCK
induced a rapid (maximum at 40 s) increase in inositol triphosphates (InsP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) formation in a dose-dependent manner (EC50 = 5.6 nM) that quickly returned to baseline. Although InsP3 levels remained at baseline, DAG levels demonstrated a second gradual increase that was maximal at 15 min.
CCK
/gastrin efficiency to stimulate DAG and InsP3 formation (EC50 = 5.6 nM) could be correlated to the G/CCKB receptor occupancy, suggesting a coupling of this receptor to phospholipase C. To examine the involvement of
protein kinase C
(
PKC
) activation in the increase in ODC activity, we stimulated the AR4-2J cells with the phorbol ester TPA and observed an increase in ODC activity with a maximal effect at 100 nM. TPA stimulation of ODC activity was completely abolished by the
PKC
inhibitor staurosporine (50 nM). However, 50 nM staurosporine inhibited only 65% of the gastrin and
CCK
induced increase in ODC activity suggesting that a portion of the G/CCKB receptor-mediated increase in ODC activity is
PKC
independent.

In this investigation we studied pancreastatin (PST) secretion from a human PST producing cell line (QGP-1N) in response to various secretagogues. Immunocytochemical study revealed the immunoreactivity of PST and somatostatin (SMT) in the same cells of a monolayer culture. Ki-ras DNA point mutation on codon 12 was found. Carbachol stimulated secretion of PST and SMT and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in the range of 10(-6)-10(-4) M. The secretion and Ca2+ mobilization were inhibited by atropine, a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Phorbol ester and calcium ionophore (A23187) stimulated secretion of PST and SMT. The removal of extracellular calcium suppressed both secretions throughout stimulation with 10(-5) M carbachol. Fluoride, a well-known activator of guanine nucleotide binding (G) protein, stimulated intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and secretion of PST and SMT in a dose-dependent manner in the range of 5-40 mM. Also, 10(-5) M carbachol and 20 mM fluoride stimulated inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate production. However,
cholecystokinin
and gastrin-releasing peptide did not stimulate Ca2+ mobilization or secretion of the two peptides. These results suggest that secretion of PST and SMT from QGP-1N cells is regulated mainly by acetylcholine in a parallel fashion through muscarinic receptors coupled to the activation of polyphosphoinositide breakdown by a G-protein and that increases in intracellular Ca2+ and
protein kinase C
play an important role in stimulus-secretion coupling.

Desensitization of the
cholecystokinin
(
CCK
) octapeptide (
CCK
-8)-induced rise in intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) was characterized in GH3 cells, a pituitary tumor cell line, which are known to possess CCKB receptor subtype. The
CCK
-8-induced [Ca2+]i transient was reduced following the initial application of
CCK
-8. A similar desensitization of the
CCK
-8-induced response was observed following the first application of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). By contrast, the TRH-induced response was not desensitized by the preceding application of
CCK
-8. Desensitization of the
CCK
-8-induced [Ca2+]i transient was associated with diminished inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation. The recovery of desensitization of the
CCK
-8-induced response was delayed by a phosphoserine/phosphothreonine phosphatase inhibitor, calyculin A (100 nM). The responsiveness to
CCK
-8 was also reduced by phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), and this effect of PDBu was completely abolished by preincubation with staurosporine. Staurosporine significantly attenuated the desensitization caused by preincubation with
CCK
-8, but this effect was too small to attribute the desensitization to the
protein kinase C
transduction pathway alone. It is likely that desensitization of
CCK
receptors involves multiple transduction pathways.

The murine neuroendocrine cell line, STC-1, was found to contain 296.8 +/- 1.8 fmol of
cholecystokinin
-like immunoreactivity (CCK-LI) per mg cell protein. Immunocytochemical stain of STC-1 cells maintained in monolayer culture indicated that CCK-LI activity was present in 93% of the cells. Analysis by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography indicated that STC-1 cells contained CCK-8 and an unidentified form as the predominant storage form. form. However, only CCK-8 was released into the culture medium upon stimulation by various secretagogues. The release of CCK-LI from STC-1 cells was stimulated by dibutyryl cAMP, forskolin, KCl, A23187, 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and luminal stimulants, e.g., sodium oleate, L-tryptophan, camostat and plaunotol. The release of CCK-LI from STC-1 cells was also stimulated by a neuropeptide, bombesin. The stimulatory effects of most of these agents were dose dependent. The stimulatory effects of dibutyryl cAMP, forskolin, and plaunotol were potentiated by 3-isobutyl-1-methyl xanthine, while that of camostat was not. The results obtained in this study indicate that the release of CCK from STC-1 cells shares the same characteristics of CCK release as from the CCK-secreting cells of the intestinal mucosa observed both in the dog and the rat in vitro and in vivo. Thus, the cellular mechanism of CCK release which appears to be cAMP- and Ca(2+)-dependent may be modulated by cellular
protein kinase C
activity. The STC-1 cell appears to be a suitable model for studying the mechanism of CCK release.

The phosphorylation of one receptor that occurs as a result of the stimulation of a different receptor on a cell is a common mechanism for heterologous regulation or "cross-talk," which has been implicated in desensitization. In this work, we focus on the mechanisms of phosphorylation of the rat pancreatic acinar cell
cholecystokinin
(
CCK
) receptor that occur upon stimulation of this cell by various agonists. Phosphorylation was allowed to occur in dispersed intact acinar cells in response to the experimental manipulation, and the phosphoreceptor was subsequently purified and quantified as an indication of response. Agonists such as vasoactive intestinal polypeptide and secretin, which act via activation of adenylate cyclase, had no effect on
CCK
receptor phosphorylation, whereas carbamylcholine and bombesin stimulated increased phosphorylation of the
CCK
receptor. Because these agents would be expected to activate
protein kinase C
(
PKC
) as well as a number of calcium-sensitive kinases and phosphatases, these activities were further dissociated by using more direct activators and inhibitors acting intracellularly. Manipulation of calcium independent of
PKC
by using a calcium ionophore, inhibition of calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II, and inhibition of calcium-dependent protein phosphatase type 2B had no effect on the state of
CCK
receptor phosphorylation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In many tissues the cellular responses mediated through different intracellular messenger systems are mutually interactive. In the exocrine pancreas the secretagogues acting via adenosine cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and those acting via calcium-phosphoinositides can potentiate one another. On the other hand,
protein kinase C
(PK-C) modulates receptor-induced responses in exocrine pancreatic cells and other cell types. Recording total protein output, monitored on-line at 280 nm, from superfused rat pancreatic segments, we demonstrate that secretin (a cAMP-acting hormone) reduces the efficacy of the calcium-mediated secretagogue
cholecystokinin
-octapeptide (CCK-8). Likewise, the PK-C activator 12,O,tetradecanoyl phorbol 13 acetate (TPA) reduces both the efficacy of secretin and the potency of
cholecystokinin
. Thus, the hypothesis of potentiation between different stimulus-secretion coupling mechanisms must be revised, and receptor-activated responses in the exocrine pancreas must be considered a complex model with multiple inhibitory and stimulatory interactions.

To study the involvement of the
protein kinase C
(
PKC
) substrate B-50 [also known as growth-associated protein-43 (GAP-43), neuromodulin, and F1] in presynaptic
cholecystokinin
-8 (CCK-8) release, highly purified synaptosomes from rat cerebral cortex were permeated with the bacterial toxin streptolysin O (SL-O). CCK-8 release from permeated synaptosomes, determined quantitatively by radioimmunoassay, could be induced by Ca2+ in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 of approximately 10(-5) M). Ca(2+)-induced CCK-8 release was maximal at 10(-4) M Ca2+, amounting to approximately 10% of the initial 6,000 +/- 550 fmol of CCK-8 content/mg of synaptosomal protein. Only 30% of the Ca(2+)-induced CCK-8 release was dependent on the presence of exogenously added ATP. Two different monoclonal anti-B-50 antibodies were introduced into permeated synaptosomes to study their effect on Ca(2+)-induced CCK-8 release. The N-terminally directed antibodies (NM2), which inhibited
PKC
-mediated B-50 phosphorylation, inhibited Ca(2+)-induced CCK-8 release in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the C-terminally directed antibodies (NM6) affected neither B-50 phosphorylation nor CCK-8 release. The
PKC
inhibitors PKC19-36 and 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), which inhibited B-50 phosphorylation in permeated synaptosomes, had no effect on Ca(2+)-induced CCK-8 release. Our data strongly indicate that B-50 is involved in the mechanism of presynaptic CCK-8 release, at a step downstream of the Ca2+ trigger. As CCK-8 is stored in large dense-cored vesicles, we conclude that B-50 is an essential factor in the exocytosis from this type of neuropeptide-containing vesicle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
