The signal transduction of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2), cyclooxygenase products of arachidonic acid, was investigated in smooth muscle preparations and 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. While PGE2 has been known to stimulate (via EP2 receptor) or inhibit (via EP3 receptor) adenylate cyclase, PGE2 activated phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2)-specific phospholipase C (PLase C) in non-vascular smooth muscles (via EP1 receptor), resulting in accumulations of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol to elicit intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. On the other hand, STA2, a TXA2 receptor analogue, also accumulated IP3 in human astrocytoma cells. [3H]SQ 29548, a TXA2 receptor antagonist, specifically bound to astrocytoma membranes. TXA2-receptor antagonists (ONO NT-126, S-145, SQ29548 and ONO3708) concentration-dependently inhibited PIP2-specific PLase C activation by STA2, and they also inhibited [3H]SQ 29548 binding in human astrocytoma cells. The Ki value of each antagonist in PIP2-specific PLase C inhibition was similar to that in [3H]SQ29548 binding inhibition. In membrane preparations, STA2 activated PIP2-specific PLase C in the presence of GTP gamma S. Pertussis toxin (IAP) did not affect STA2-induced PLase C activation. The results suggest that stimulation of TXA2 receptors activates PIP2-specific PLase C via an IAP-insensitive G-protein.

In rabbit peritoneal neutrophils prelabeled with [3H] lyso platelet-activating factor, a protein kinase C inhibitor, staurosporine (> 1 microM), increased [3H]phosphatidylethanol ([3H]PEt) level in the presence of ethanol in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, providing evidence for staurosporine activation of phospholipase D (PLD). The staurosporine activation of the enzyme absolutely required both extracellular calcium and cytochalasin B, and was almost completely inhibited by pretreatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (IAP). In a reconstituted system where the purified Gi1 had been incorporated into phospholipid vesicles, staurosporine activated GTPase activity of Gi1 in a concentration-dependent fashion, with a maximal 4-5-fold effect. ADP-ribosylation by IAP of Gi1 in vesicles significantly suppressed the staurosporine activation. As with the GTPase activity of Gi1, GTPase activities of other purified IAP-sensitive G proteins, such as Gi2 and G(o), were significantly stimulated by staurosporine, but the cholera toxin substrate Gs was appreciably less sensitive to the staurosporine stimulation. The staurosporine activation of GTPase was also observed in rabbit neutrophil membranes from control cells, but not in membranes from IAP-treated neutrophils. From these results, we conclude that the staurosporine activation of PLD in rabbit neutrophils is attributed to the direct activation of an IAP-sensitive G protein in a similar manner to receptors occupied by agonists. By contrast, staurosporine failed to activate phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) under the conditions in which it activated PLD, indicating that there exists a PLD activation pathway independent of PI-PLC. Furthermore, it was found that N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase release from the granules of intact neutrophils was evoked by staurosporine to almost the same extent as by fMLP (100 nM), but O2- generation was not affected. These results suggest a possibility that PLD pathway plays an important role in enzyme release, but is not sufficient for O2- generation, in rabbit peritoneal neutrophils.

Acid secretion from isolated rabbit gastric parietal cells can be stimulated by gastric secretagogues, histamine (cyclic-AMP pathway) and carbachol (inositol phosphate pathway). Prostaglandins (PG) from E series are potent inhibitors of acid secretion. The intracellular mechanism of this inhibition was examined by using a stable PGE1-analogue, misoprostol. Aminopyrine (AP) accumulations due to histamine, IBMX and forskolin were dose-dependently inhibited by misoprostol, whereas a weak but significant biphasic effect on carbachol-induced AP accumulation was observed. The cyclic-AMP formation induced by histamine and IBMX were also inhibited by misoprostol in a non-competitive way. The potent effect of forskolin on cyclic-AMP levels was not modified by misoprostol in parietal cells, whereas it was potentiated in non-parietal cells. The inhibitory effect of misoprostol on AP accumulation was reduced by incubation of parietal cells with Bordetella pertussis toxin (IAP) but not with Cholera toxin (CT). Pretreatment of the cells with IAP did not alter cyclic-AMP levels of resting and histamine-stimulated parietal cells but abolished the inhibitory effect of misoprostol. Treatment with CT increased basal and histamine-stimulated cyclic-AMP levels and masked the inhibitory effect of misoprostol. The biphasic effect of misoprostol on carbachol-stimulated AP accumulation in parietal cells was confirmed on carbachol-stimulated phospholipase C activity and on [Ca2+]i stimulated by carbachol. These data confirm a direct and specific effect of the prostanoid on the Gi-subunit of the adenylate cyclase coupled to the histamine H2-receptor, and a biphasic effect on the phospholipase C pathway of the parietal cells.

Stimulation by N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP) of rabbit peritoneal neutrophils, in which phosphatidylcholine was preferentially labeled with 1-O-[3H]octadecyl lyso platelet-activating factor, activated phospholipase D, resulting in the formation of [3H]PA from [3H]PC. A direct activator of GTP-binding proteins (G-proteins), NaF, also stimulated [3H]PA formation. fMLP-stimulated [3H]PA formation was inhibited by pertussis toxin (IAP) in a time- and dose-dependent manner. IAP also inhibited fMLP-stimulated IP3 formation, but the inhibition of IP3 formation was significantly greater than that of [3H]PA formation. These results indicate that activation of phospholipase D by fMLP in rabbit neutrophils is mediated by an IAP-sensitive G-protein that may be distinct from a phospholipase C-regulating protein.

We have studied the possible involvement of the GTP-binding protein (G-protein) in the activation of phospholipase C and A2 in cultured rat luteal cells as a transducer of cell information. 1. Inositol phosphate production and arachidonic acid release in rat luteal cells by the stimulation of PGF2 alpha and GnRH receptors are dependent on GTP and therefore suggest the involvement of GTP binding protein. 2. When the cells were not treated with IAP, a membrane protein of 41K molecular weight was apparently labeled. The protein, with a molecular weight of 41K, which was obtained from cultured rat luteal cells without prior treatment with IAP is considered to be the alpha-subunit of GTP binding protein as reported in other cells. While alpha-subunit of G-protein was ADP-ribosylated in luteal cells too, the 41K protein from the cells pretreated with IAP was not found to be ADP ribosylated. 3. When such IAP pretreated luteal cells were stimulated by PGF2 alpha or GnRHa, the production of inositol phosphate and the release of arachidonic acid were observed with no suppression. 4. The results suggest the existence of some G-protein other than Gi between the receptor and phospholipases C and A2.

Mastoparan inhibited [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation induced by carbachol as well as cyclic AMP accumulation induced by isoproterenol in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. Mastoparan inhibited GTP gamma S-induced, but not Ca2(+)-induced, [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation in membrane preparations with an IC50 of approximately 10 microM. The inhibitory effect of mastoparan on carbachol-induced [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation was resistant to pertussis toxin (IAP) treatment in intact cells. These results suggest that mastoparan inhibits phospholipase C in human astrocytoma cells via a GTP binding protein, which is not a substrate for IAP.

Islet-activating protein (IAP; pertussis toxin) was employed to test the hypothesis that IAP-sensitive GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) are coupled with alpha 1-adrenergic receptor in rat liver plasma membranes. The high-affinity state of the binding of alpha 2-adrenergic agonist, which is known to be coupled with IAP-sensitive G protein, was abolished in IAP-treated plasma membranes. IAP treatment of plasma membranes could also diminish the high-affinity state of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor for the agonist. Restoration of the high-affinity state of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor for the agonist occurred on reconstitution of the bovine brain IAP-sensitive G proteins. The alpha 1-adrenergic receptor agonist stimulated inositol triphosphate (InsP3) production from [3H]inositol-labeled liver plasma membranes in a concentration-dependent manner. IAP treatment also decreased alpha 1-adrenergic-agonist-induced InsP3 production but not completely. From these results, we concluded that there is a possibility that both IAP-sensitive and IAP-insensitive G proteins were involved in alpha 1-adrenergic-receptor-stimulated phospholipase C activation in rat liver plasma membranes.

Extracellular ATP, N6-(L-2-phenylisopropyl)adenosine (PIA) and other purinergic agonists inhibited atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-induced cGMP accumulation in FRTL-5 thyroid cells. These agonists were functionally classified into three groups. Group 1 agonists represented by ATP inhibited the ANP action in association with phospholipase C activation in a partially islet-activating protein (IAP, pertussis toxin)-sensitive manner. Group 2 including GTP and 8-bromoadenosine 5'-triphosphate acted similarly to Group 1 except for total insensitivity of the former to IAP. The IAP-insensitive portion of Group 1 actions and the actions of Group 2 as well as of A23187, a Ca2+ ionophore which mimicked the Group 2 agonist actions, were almost completely inhibited by phosphodiesterase inhibitors such as M & B 22948 (2-O-propoxyphenyl-8-azapurin-6-one) and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. Group 3 including PIA and AMP did not affect phospholipase C, but inhibited the ANP performance in an IAP-sensitive fashion. This action of Group 3 and the IAP-sensitive portion of Group 1 actions were insensitive to the phosphodiesterase inhibitors. We conclude that ATP and other Group 1 agonists attenuated the ANP-induced cGMP accumulation by at least two mechanisms: 1) stimulation of cGMP hydrolysis via a phospholipase C-Ca2(+)-phosphodiesterase system and 2) inhibition of cGMP generation, probably by an IAP-sensitive G-protein-mediated inactivation of the ANP-receptor-coupled guanylate cyclase. Group 2 agonists stimulate only the first mechanisms, whereas Group 3 agonists prefer the second one.

The properties of thromboxane A2 (TXA2) receptors were examined in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. 9,11-Epithio-11,12-methanothromboxane A2 (STA2), a stable analogue of TXA2, stimulated the accumulation of inositol phosphates (IPs) with an EC50 of about 50 nM. The STA2-induced accumulation of IPs was inhibited concentration dependently by ONO3708, a TXA2 receptor antagonist, with an inhibition constant (Ki) of about 10 nM. Inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was accumulated more rapidly than inositol bisphosphate (IP2) in response to STA2. HPLC analysis indicated that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate accumulated in the presence of STA2. STA2 alone had no effect on the accumulation of IPs in membrane preparations but it potentiated the accumulation induced by GTP gamma S. [3H]SQ29548, a TXA2 receptor antagonist, bound specifically to TXA2 receptors, expressing a single binding site with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 10.9 nM. The competition curve for STA2 inhibition of [3H]SQ29548 binding was shifted to the right and was steeper in the presence of GTP gamma S. Pertussis toxin (IAP) elicited ADP-ribosylation of 41KD protein but had no effect on the sensitivity to GTP of the STA2 inhibition of SQ29548 binding or of STA2-induced accumulation of IPs. It is concluded from these results that the stimulation of TXA2 receptors results in activation of phospholipase C via a GTP binding protein and that the protein is not a substrate for IAP.

Vasopressin (VP) and angiotensin II (AT II) stimulate the production of inositol phosphates (IP) in rat glomerulosa cells. Guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), but not VP or AT II, stimulates IP production in a myo-[3H]inositol-prelabelled glomerulosa-cell membrane preparation. In combination with GTP[S], these hormones potentiate the response to GTP[S], indicating the existence of a G-protein involved in the coupling of the VP and AT II receptor with the phospholipase C. ADP-ribosylation with pertussis toxin (IAP) revealed the specific labelling of a single molecule of 41 kDa. No significant inhibition of VP- or AT II-stimulated IP accumulation was detected in intact cells when the whole 41 kDa molecule was endogenously ADP-ribosylated by IAP treatment. On the contrary, when glomerulosa cells were infected with cholera toxin (CT), both the VP- and AT II-stimulated IP accumulations were inhibited in a dose-dependent manner. Yet these effects were partial even at high concentrations of CT, and could not be related to the ADP-ribosylation of 'alpha s' molecules. Similarly, when the cells were infected with 1 microgram of CT/ml, the specific binding of VP and AT II decreased by 50-60%. Such results may signify that the treatment primarily affects the densities of the hormone receptors. When glomerulosa cells were incubated for 15 h in the presence of 10 nM-corticotropin (ACTH), a condition in which the intracellular concentration of cyclic AMP was increased 3-fold, the maximum IP response to 0.1 microM-VP or -AT II was decreased by 50%. When similar experiments were carried out only after a 15 min incubation period with the same concentration of ACTH, the increase in cyclic AMP was more pronounced, but no inhibition of hormone-induced IP accumulation was observed. Altogether, these results may suggest that CT exerts its action on the VP- or AT II-sensitive phospholipase C systems via a prolonged increase in intracellular cyclic AMP.
