Binding of chemoattractants to specific cell surface receptors on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) initiates a series of biochemical responses leading to cellular activation. A critical early biochemical event in chemoattractant (CTX) receptor-mediated signal transduction is the phosphodiesteric cleavage of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), with concomitant production of the calcium mobilizing inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) isomer, and the protein kinase C activator, 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG). The following lines of experimental evidence collectively suggest that CTX receptors are coupled to phospholipase C via a guanine nucleotide binding (G) protein. Receptor-mediated hydrolysis of PIP2 in PMN plasma membrane preparations requires both fMet-Leu-Phe and GTP, and incubation of intact PMNs with pertussis toxin (which ADP ribosylates and inactivates some G proteins) eliminates the ability of fMet-Leu-Phe plus GTP to promote PIP2 breakdown in isolated plasma membranes. Studies with both PMN particulate fractions and with partially purified fMet-Leu-Phe receptor preparations indicate that guanine nucleotides regulate CTX receptor affinity. Finally, fMet-Leu-Phe stimulates high-affinity binding of GTP gamma S to PMN membranes as well as GTPase activity. A G alpha subunit has been identified in phagocyte membranes which is different from other G alpha subunits on the basis of molecular weight and differential sensitivity to ribosylation by bacterial toxins. Thus, a novel G protein may be involved in coupling CTX receptors to phospholipase C. Studies in intact and sonicated PMNs demonstrate that metabolism of 1,4,5-IP3 proceeds via two distinct pathways: 1) sequential dephosphorylation to 1,4-IP2, 4-IP1 and inositol, or 2) ATP-dependent conversion to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) followed by sequential dephosphorylation to 1,3,4-IP3, 3,4-IP2, 3-IP1 and inositol. Receptor-mediated hydrolysis of PIP2 occurs at ambient intracellular Ca2+ levels; but metabolism of 1,4,5-IP3 via the IP4 pathway requires elevated cytosolic Ca2+ levels associated with cellular activation. Thus, the two pathways for 1,4,5-IP3 metabolism may serve different metabolic functions. Additionally, inositol phosphate production appears to be controlled by protein kinase C, as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) abrogates PIP2 hydrolysis by interfering with the ability of the activated G protein to stimulate phospholipase C. This implies a physiologic mechanism for terminating biologic responses via protein kinase C mediated feedback inhibition of PIP2 hydrolysis.

Using the [3H]inositol-labeled plasma membranes isolated from the differentiated human leukemic (HL-60) cells, the mode of inhibitory action of the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme protein kinase C in the chemotactic peptide, fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced, phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of phosphoinositides was investigated. In this cell-free membrane system, fMLP in the presence of GTP plus Ca2+, GTP in the presence of Ca2+, or Ca2+ alone could induce the formation of inositol bis- and trisphosphate (IP2 and IP3, respectively). When the intact cells were pre-treated with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, the fMLP- and GTP-induced formation of IP2 and IP3 was markedly reduced but the Ca2+-induced reactions were not reduced in the isolated membranes. This result suggests that protein kinase C impairs the coupling of the GTP-binding protein to the phospholipase C. In another experiment, preincubation of the isolated membranes with pure rat brain protein kinase C inhibited the fMLP-induced formation of IP2, but did not inhibit the GTP- or Ca2+-induced reaction. Under the same conditions, protein kinase C did not inhibit the fMLP-, GTP-, or Ca2+-induced formation of IP3. This result suggests that protein kinase C impairs additionally the coupling of the fMLP receptor to the GTP-binding protein leading to the formation of IP2. The reason for the failure of protein kinase C to inhibit the fMLP-induced formation of IP3 in the cell-free membrane system is unknown, but several possible mechanisms are discussed.

Inositol trisphosphate (IP3) is formed in response to specific agonists that cause activation of phospholipase C and degradation of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate. IP3 is a second messenger that releases Ca2+ from the dense tubular system to the cytosol in stimulated platelets. Our present information indicates that [3H]IP3 is dephosphorylated to [3H]inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and [3H]inositol monophosphate (IP) by human platelets treated with 0.05-0.10% Triton X-100. This dephosphorylation of [3H]IP3 to [3H]IP2 and [3H]IP is also observed when platelets are permeabilized by electrical stimulation or by 20 micrograms/ml saponin. These detergents or electropermeabilization allow IP3 to access cytosolic IP3 phosphatase. Pretreatment of intact platelets with phorbol dibutyrate and 1-oleyl-2-acetyldiacylglycerol for 30 s, at concentrations that maximally activate protein kinase C, stimulates the conversion of IP3 to IP2 and IP. This suggests a role for protein kinase C in the regulation of IP3 degradation.

In the mouse neuroblastoma x dorsal root ganglion hybrid cell line F-11, bradykinin receptor stimulation induced the release of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and inositol-1,4-bisphosphate (IP2). Maximal stimulation of [2-3H]IP3 and [2-3H]IP2 release by bradykinin in the absence of LiCl occurred at 7 (or less) and 15 s, respectively, with average levels of 5.7-(IP3) and 3.4-(IP2) fold of control values. The EC50 for bradykinin was 33 +/- 5 nM. IP3 and IP2 concentrations returned to basal levels approximately 1 min after bradykinin addition. Bradykinin-induced IP3 release was blocked by several novel bradykinin analogues. In particular, [D-Arg0]-Hyp3-Thi5,8-[D-Phe7]-bradykinin [Hyp, hydroxyproline; Thi, beta-(2-thienyl)-L-alanine] blocked IP3 production in a dose-dependent fashion. Several of these analogues alone showed little or no agonist activity. The bradykinin receptor may be coupled to phospholipase C via a GTP-sensitive protein (Gi or Go), as preincubation for 18-20 h with pertussis toxin decreased IP3 concentrations by 45%. Bradykinin is also known to modulate the concentrations of other second messengers in neurons, increasing the concentrations of Ca2+, diacylglycerol (DG), and cyclic GMP and decreasing the concentration of cyclic AMP. These second messengers modulated bradykinin-dependent IP3 release to varying degrees. A23187, a Ca2+ ionophore, produced a 37% decrease in IP3 concentration. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, which mimics the effects of DG and activates protein kinase C, inhibited IP3 release by 80%. Dibutyryl cyclic GMP produced little or no inhibition of IP3. [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]Enkephalin (DADLE), an opioid peptide that decreases cyclic AMP concentrations, likewise had no effect.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In mouse neuroblastoma x Chinese hamster brain clonal cell line NCB-20, bradykinin (BK) receptor stimulation causes phosphoinositide hydrolysis and release of inositol phosphates. Maximum stimulation (4-fold) of [2-3H]inositol trisphosphate (IP3) release in the absence of Li+ from NCB-20's prelabelled for 20-24 hours with [2-3H]myo-inositol (15 microCi/confluent 60mm dish) occurred after 5-10 seconds of bradykinin exposure, with an EC50 of approximately 100nM. Inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and inositol monophosphate (IP1) also showed increases (2.9-fold and 1.5 fold, respectively), with peaks at 15-20 seconds and 50 seconds, respectively. Under these same conditions, D-Ala2-D-Leu5 enkephalin (DADLE) (10 microM), an opiate agonist with 2nM affinity, gave no stimulation of IP3 release. Furthermore, it did not block BK-initiated release, both when applied simultaneously with BK and when cells were preincubated with DADLE for 100 minutes to lower cyclic AMP levels. These results show that pain-inducing BK has a major acute stimulatory effect on receptor-phospholipase C-coupled IP3 release, the opioid peptide DADLE has no such effect and, DADLE does not block the IP3 release induced by BK.

We have previously reported that insulin increases the synthesis de novo of phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and diacylglycerol (DAG) in BC3H-1 myocytes and/or rat adipose tissue. Here we have further characterized these effects of insulin and examined whether there are concomitant changes in inositol phosphate generation and Ca2+ mobilization. We found that insulin provoked very rapid increases in PI content (20% within 15 s in myocytes) and, after a slight lag, PIP and PIP2 content in both BC3H-1 myocytes and rat fat pads (measured by increases in 32P or 3H content after prelabelling phospholipids to constant specific radioactivity by prior incubation with 32Pi or [3H]inositol). Insulin also increased 32Pi incorporation into these phospholipids when 32Pi was added either simultaneously with insulin or 1 h after insulin. Thus, the insulin-induced increase in phospholipid content appeared to be due to an increase in phospholipid synthesis, which was maintained for at least 2 h. Insulin increased DAG content in BC3H-1 myocytes and adipose tissue, but failed to increase the levels of inositol monophosphate (IP), inositol bisphosphate (IP2) or inositol trisphosphate (IP3). The failure to observe an increase in IP3 (a postulated 'second messenger' which mobilizes intracellular Ca2+) was paralleled by a failure to observe an insulin-induced increase in the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+ in BC3H-1 myocytes as measured by Quin 2 fluorescence. Like insulin, the phorbol diester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) increased the transport of 2-deoxyglucose and aminoisobutyric acid in BC3H-1 myocytes. These effects of insulin and TPA appeared to be independent of extracellular Ca2+. We conclude that the phospholipid synthesis de novo effect of insulin is provoked very rapidly, and is attended by increases in DAG but not IP3 or Ca2+ mobilization. The insulin-induced increase in DAG does not appear to be a consequence of phospholipase C acting upon the expanded PI + PIP + PIP2 pool, but may be derived directly from PA. Our findings suggest the possibility that DAG (through protein kinase C activation) may function as an important intracellular 'messenger' for controlling metabolic processes during insulin action.

The control of inositol phosphate (IP) turnover was investigated in intact human airway smooth muscle cells (SMC) during a brief exposure to a bronchoconstrictor agonist. The pool of membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate was labelled by incubating SMC with myo-[3H]inositol and the [3H]IPs synthetized ([3H]1,4-IP2, [3H]1,3,4,-IP3, [3H]1,4,5,-IP3 and [3H]1,3,4,5-IP4) were separated by HPLC. We examined the role of protein kinase C (PKC) and of Ca2+ on IP turnover during a 5 sec application of histamine. Activation of PKC with the phorbol ester PMA (0.2 microM) decreased, whereas inhibition of PKC with 1 microM staurosporine increased the production of the 4 IPs examined in unstimulated and in histamine-stimulated SMC. Decreasing [Ca2+]i with 5 microM ionomycin in the absence of external Ca2+ diminished the IP production whereas in the presence of Ca2+, ionomycin exalted it and potentiated the response to histamine. Thapsigargin, 5 microM, which depletes the 1,4,5-IP3-sensitive Ca2+ stores, reduced the IP production due to histamine. The effects of PMA, staurosporine and thapsigargin were also tested on [Ca2+]i in fura-2-loaded single SMC. These results reveal that PKC exerts a negative and Ca2+ a positive feedback control on phospholipase C, that operate within 5 sec of agonist stimulation.

The direct effect of melatonin and related agonists on Li(+)-amplified phosphoinositide breakdown was studied in chick brain slices prelabeled with myo-[2-3H]-inositol. The melatonin receptor agonist 6-chloromelatonin (10-100 microM) increased, in a concentration-dependent manner, the accumulation of inositol phosphates (IP) in chick brain slices. This effect of 6-chloromelatonin (10 microM) was rapid as transient increases in IP3/IP4 (maximal increase, 29% at 20 s) and IP2 levels (maximal increase, 36% at 1 min) were observed, followed by a slower but sustained increase in IP1 level (30% at 5 min), when the amount of IP3/IP4 and IP2 had already been decreased to the control level. The phosphoinositide response elicited by 6-chloromelatonin (10 microM) was dependent on the presence of extracellular calcium. Direct stimulation of membrane phospholipase C by 6-chloromelatonin (10 microM) in isolated myo-[2-3H]inositol-prelabeled optic tectum membranes was dependent on the presence of guanosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate (1 microM), thus suggesting that G protein(s) link melatonin receptor activation to phospholipase C stimulation. The competitive melatonin receptor antagonist luzindole (10-100 microM) inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner the IP1 accumulation stimulated by 6-chloromelatonin (10-100 microM); however, it did not affect the accumulation stimulated by 5-hydroxytryptamine (10 microM). By contrast, methysergide (10 microM) completely inhibited 5-hydroxy-tryptamine (10 microM)-, but not 6-chloromelatonin (10 microM)-, induced IP1 accumulation. Melatonin receptor agonists increased IP1 accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner reaching different maximal responses.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Muscarinic agonists and guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) stimulated formation of inositol phosphates in permeabilized longitudinal smooth muscle of guinea pig ileum. Gpp(NH)p markedly potentiated the formation of inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) stimulated by carbachol, but increased inositol monophosphate formation (IP1) only slightly. Gpp(NH)p enhanced the formation of IP2 + IP3 induced by either acetylcholine or carbachol about fourfold in a synergistic manner, but enhanced the effects of oxotremorine and pilocarpine less than twofold in an additive manner. Elevation of Ca2+ concentration resulted in increases of the inositol phosphate levels stimulated by both carbachol and Gpp(NH)p. The optimal concentration of Ca2+ for carbachol-stimulated formations of IP2 + IP3 was shifted to a lower Ca2+ concentration in the presence of Gpp(NH)p. These findings suggest that muscarinic receptor-stimulated polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in ileal smooth muscle results in inositol polyphosphate formation via GTP binding protein (G-protein). The muscarinic receptor-activated G-protein decreases the Ca2+ requirement of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis. Muscarinic agonists stimulate inositol polyphosphate formation by interaction of the G-protein activation of a phosphoinositide specific phospholipase C with Ca2+ influx.

The coupling of muscarinic-cholinergic receptors (mAChR) to adenylate cyclase and phospholipase C (PLC) second messenger systems has been demonstrated in many animal species. However, little is known about this association in the developing human central nervous system. Because of the proposed role of acetylcholine in the regulation of development and differentiation of neural cells, an understanding of these relationships during human fetal development gains importance. We report, in this communication, the coupling of mAChR with PLC in the human fetal brain. This coupling was determined using two independent approaches that relied upon estimating the accumulation of inositol phosphates (IPs) and cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG). Carbachol treatment of brain slices, in the presence of lithium, resulted in the accumulation of IPs. Analysis of the kinetics of this accumulation showed that IP3 and IP2 increased rapidly, reaching a peak or plateau before IP. The results also showed that agonist-stimulated PLC produced two second messengers, IP3 and DAG. The production of DAG was strongly supported by the carbachol-dependent increase of CDP-DAG. The accumulation of IP and CDP-DAG was dependent on agonist concentration. The obtained EC50 values were approximately: carbachol 47 microM; acetylcholine 6 microM; and oxotremorine 25 microM. Unexpectedly, all three agonists demonstrated a similar efficacy. The cholinergic stimulation of inositide hydrolysis appears to be the result of activation of the m1 muscarinic receptor.
