Serotonin-stimulated activation of phospholipase C in primary astroglial cell cultures was studied as a mean of evaluating the effect of acute ethanol exposition on this signal transduction system. The addition of 50-150 mM ethanol prior to stimulation with 10(-5) M serotonin led to a potentiation of the serotonin-induced [3H]-inositol phosphate formation and an increased incorporation of [3H]-inositol into the three phosphoinositides studied. This potentiating effect of ethanol was observed only when ethanol was added together with serotonin. No stimulatory effect of ethanol per se was found. Furthermore, ethanol had no effect on arginine-vasopressin, bradykinin or phenylephrine stimulated inositol lipid metabolism.

Bovine aortic endothelial cells were grown on microcarrier beads and were perfused with Krebs-Ringer solution. Endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) was bioassayed on a cascade of four strips of rabbit aorta, and prostacyclin was analyzed by RIA of 6-oxo-prostaglandin F1 alpha. The endothelial cells released EDRF and prostacyclin when stimulated with bradykinin and its analogues, or with ADP, ATP, arachidonic acid, and phospholipase C (phosphatidylcholine cholinephosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.3). The detection of EDRF was potentiated by superoxide dismutase, and the relaxation of rabbit aortic strips induced by EDRF was antagonized by methylene blue. The release of EDRF and prostacyclin was inhibited by phorbol myristate acetate, R59022 (a diacylglycerol kinase inhibitor), and gentamycin. We suggest that the release of EDRF and prostacyclin is coupled and the initial common step is activation of a phospholipase C.

Previous studies have demonstrated that bradykinin stimulates the rapid release of inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (IP3) from membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate (PIP2) in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Since current evidence would suggest that the activation of phospholipase C (PLC) is mediated through a guanine nucleotide-binding protein in receptor-mediated activation of PLC, we evaluated the role of guanine nucleotide proteins in receptor-mediated (bradykinin-stimulated) activation of PLC in MDCK cells. Bradykinin at 10(-7) M produced a marked increase in IP3 formation within 10 s increasing from a basal level of 46.2 to 686.6 pmol/mg cell protein a 15-fold increase. Pretreatment of MDCK cells in culture with 200 ng/ml of pertussis toxin for 4 h reduced the bradykinin-stimulated response to 205.8 pmol/mg protein. A 41-kD protein substrate in MDCK membranes was ADP ribosylated in vitro in the presence of pertussis toxin. The ADP ribosylation in vitro was inhibited by pretreatment of the cells in culture with pertussis toxin. Membranes from MDCK cells incubated in the presence of [3H]PIP2/phosphatidyl ethanolamine liposomes demonstrated hydrolysis of [3H]PIP2 with release of [3H]IP3 when GTP 100 microM or GTP gamma S 10 microM was added. Bradykinin 10(-7) M added with GTP 100 microM markedly increased the rate of hydrolysis within 10 s, thus demonstrating a similar time course of PLC activation as intact cells. These results demonstrate that bradykinin binds to its receptor and activates a membrane-associated PLC through a pertussis toxin-sensitive, guanine nucleotide protein.

In neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells, bradykinin (BK) receptor stimulation leads to phosphoinositide hydrolysis, formation of inositol phosphates and mobilization of intracellular calcium. Treatment of the cells with 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) suppressed the spike phase of increases in intracellular calcium concentration. In radioligand binding studies, TPA treatment did not interfere with [3H]BK specific binding to intact cells or to cell membranes. The ability of guanyl-5'-yl-imidodiphosphate to promote the conversion of the high affinity sites of the BK receptors into a low affinity sites was unaffected by TPA. TPA treatment showed the dose-dependent, noncompetitive inhibition of BK-stimulated formation of inositol trisphosphate. In the membrane preparations from TPA-treated cells, guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate-stimulated inositol trisphosphate formation was inhibited by 50%. These data indicate that TPA exerts its inhibitory action on BK responses at the sites of guanine nucleotide-binding protein or phospholipase C or both.

Expression of a transforming Harvey or Kirsten ras gene caused opposing effects in the ability of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and bradykinin to activate phospholipase C-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. In [3H]inositol-labeled rat-1 fibroblasts, PDGF (5 ng/ml) resulted in a 2-fold increase in the level of [3H]inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) after 2 min and, in the presence of LiCl, a 3- to 8-fold increase in the level of [3H]inositol monophosphate (InsP1) after 30 min. However, in EJ-ras-transfected rat-1 cells, which exhibit near normal levels of PDGF receptors, PDGF resulted in little or no accumulation of either [3H]InsP3 or [3H]InsP1. Similarly, marked stimulations by PDGF were observed in NIH 3T3 cells, as well as in v-src-transformed 3T3 cells, but not in 3T3 cells transformed by Kirsten sarcoma virus or by transfection with v-Ha-ras DNA. This diminished phosphoinositide response in ras-transformed cells was associated with a markedly attenuated mitogenic response to PDGF. On the other hand, both phosphoinositide metabolism and DNA synthesis in ras-transformed fibroblasts were stimulated several-fold by serum. In NIH 3T3 cells carrying a glucocorticoid-inducible v-Ha-ras gene, a close correlation was found between the expression of p21ras and the loss of PDGF-stimulated [3H]InsP1 accumulation. In contrast to this ras-induced desensitization to PDGF, ras-transformed NIH 3T3 cells exhibited an enhanced sensitivity to bradykinin; this effect was associated with an elevated level of high-affinity [3H]bradykinin binding. We propose that a ras gene product (p21) can, directly or indirectly, influence growth factor-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, as well as DNA synthesis, via alterations in the properties of specific growth factor receptors.

The addition of bradykinin to NG108-15 cells resulted in an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) and the formation of inositol monophosphate, inositol bisphosphate, and inositol trisphosphate in these cells. The bradykinin-stimulated formation of inositol polyphosphates in plasma membrane preparations was dependent on the presence of GTP or guanosine-5'-O-thiotriphosphate (GTP gamma S) but not of GDP. GTP gamma S, unlike GTP, increased the basal formation of inositol polyphosphate in NG108-15 membranes. Iontophoretic injection of GTP gamma S into single cells induced increases in [Ca2+]i. These effects of bradykinin and GTP gamma S on [Ca2+]i and the formation of inositol phosphates in the intact cells and membranes were not affected by treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin or cholera toxin. Data on binding of bradykinin to membrane preparations indicated the presence of two classes of binding sites with Kd values of 0.80 +/- 0.26 and 9.63 +/- 0.13 nM. Approximately 74% of the receptors were in the high affinity state. In the presence of guanyl-5'-yl-imidodiphosphate [Gpp(NH)p], the high affinity sites in the membrane preparations were converted to low affinity sites with no change in the total receptor number. These toxin treatments had no effect on binding of bradykinin to its receptors. Thus, these results indicate that a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, which is not a substrate of pertussis toxin or cholera toxin, is involved in mediating the effects of bradykinin on membrane-bound phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C to induce the increase of cytosolic calcium.

In Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts bradykinin stimulated inositol phosphate (InsP) formation and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis. The EC50 values for stimulation of PGE2 synthesis and InsP formation by bradykinin were similar, 200 pM and 275 pM, respectively. Guanosine-5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate stimulated PGE2 synthesis and InsP formation, and guanosine-5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate inhibited both PGE2 synthesis and InsP formation stimulated by bradykinin. Neither bradykinin-stimulated PGE2 synthesis nor InsP formation was sensitive to pertussis toxin. Phorbol ester, dexamethasone, and cycloheximide distinguished between bradykinin-stimulated PGE2 synthesis and InsP formation. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate enhanced bradykinin-stimulated PGE2 synthesis but inhibited bradykinin-stimulated InsP formation. Pretreatment of cells with dexamethasone for 24 hr inhibited bradykinin-stimulated PGE2 synthesis but was without effect on bradykinin-stimulated InsP formation. Cycloheximide inhibited bradykinin-stimulated PGE2 synthesis but was without effect on bradykinin-stimulated InsP formation. When bradykinin was added to cells prelabeled with [3H]choline, the phospholipase A2 products lysophosphatidylcholine and glycerophosphocholine were generated. In cells pretreated with dexamethasone, lysophosphatidylcholine and glycerophosphocholine formation induced by bradykinin were inhibited. Treatment of cells with phorbol ester enhanced bradykinin-induced formation of these metabolites. The data suggest that bradykinin receptors are coupled by GTP-binding proteins to both phospholipase C and phospholipase A2 and that phospholipase A2 is the enzyme that catalyzes release of arachidonate for prostaglandin synthesis.

Bradykinin-stimulated prostaglandin synthesis was investigated in Swiss albino 3T3 fibroblasts (Swiss 3T3 cells) and bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (CPAE). Previous studies have indicated that bradykinin stimulates arachidonic acid release in Swiss 3T3 cells by activating phospholipase A2 and by activating phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C in CPAE cells. The dose-response for bradykinin-stimulated prostaglandin synthesis was similar in Swiss 3T3 cells and CPAE cells. Marked differences were found in the effects of several bradykinin analogs in Swiss 3T3 cells and CPAE cells. des-Arg9-bradykinin was a partial agonist in CPAE cells whereas it was completely inactive in Swiss 3T3 cells. [p-chloro-D-Phe6-D-Pro7]-Bradykinin was a full agonist in Swiss 3T3 cells, but only a partial agonist, exhibiting a bell-shaped curve, in CPAE cells. The bradykinin antagonist, [D-Arg0-Hyp3-D-Phe7]-bradykinin, was a several-fold more potent antagonist in Swiss 3T3 cells, compared to CPAE cells. The effects of these bradykinin analogs on prostaglandin synthesis do not fit the previously described BK1, BK2 bradykinin receptor classification. These findings suggest that there are at least two bradykinin receptors which stimulate prostaglandin synthesis. Previous studies have indicated that these two bradykinin receptors may be coupled to different transduction pathways for the release of arachidonate.

Proteins encoded by ras genes have recently been reported to couple certain growth factor receptors to phospholipase C, the enzyme catalyzing phosphatidylinositol breakdown. To investigate this hypothesis, the normal and the transforming Ha-, Ki-, and N-ras genes were each transfected into Rat-1 fibroblasts under the control of strong promoters. Several cell lines, both normal and transformed, were selected that expressed high levels of p21ras. Phosphatidylinositol turnover was measured in these cells in response to a wide variety of peptide factors; bradykinin was found to have a greatly enhanced effect on the p21ras overexpressors relative to the parental and control cells. Bradykinin receptor numbers were measured in these lines and found to be up to 40-fold higher in the p21ras overexpressors than in the parental cells. This was found to be the case for both normal and transforming forms of all three varieties of ras genes. Receptor number correlated well with the bradykinin-dependent phosphatidylinositol turnover response in all cases. These data indicate that the effects of p21ras on cellular responses to the peptide hormone bradykinin are due to changes in receptor number rather than to direct coupling by p21ras between the receptor and phospholipase C.

Human recombinant interleukin 1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) and IL-1 beta stimulated prostaglandin E2 synthesis in 3T3 fibroblasts in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Enhanced prostaglandin E2 synthesis after IL-1 treatment was apparent by 1 hr and continued to increase for at least 2 days. Half-maximal stimulation occurred at 0.5 pM IL-1 alpha or IL-1 beta, and both interleukins were equally effective, with maximal stimulation occurring in response to 5-10 pM IL-1. In contrast to IL-1, bradykinin stimulation of prostaglandin E2 synthesis is rapid; its effect is maximal by 5 min. In cells that had been pretreated with IL-1 for 24 hr, prostaglandin E2 synthesis in response to bradykinin was amplified more than 10-fold. IL-1 also amplified the receptor-mediated formation of prostaglandin E2 by bombesin and thrombin. The lymphokine did not affect bradykinin receptor number or affinity. IL-1 treatment induced phospholipase A2 and cyclooxygenase but not phospholipase C or prostaglandin E isomerase. It also enhanced bradykinin-stimulated GTPase activity, suggesting possible induction of the GTP-binding regulatory protein coupled to the bradykinin receptor. Thus, IL-1 enhanced receptor-mediated release of prostaglandin E2 in response to bradykinin, bombesin, and thrombin by increasing the cellular levels of phospholipase A2, cyclooxygenase, and GTP-binding regulatory protein(s).
