The effect of cAMP on active Ca2+ extrusion across the plasma membrane of intact human platelets was studied using quin2, a fluorimetric indicator of free Ca2+ in the cytoplasmic compartment ([Ca2+]cyt). Elevations of cAMP were achieved by incubation with dibutyryl-cAMP or by forskolin, which was found to selectively elevate cAMP without affecting cGMP levels. Progress curves of Ca2+ extrusion from quin2-overloaded platelets were measured. The rate vs. [Ca2+]cyt characteristic was calculated as previously described (Johansson, J.S. and Haynes, D.H. (1988) J. Membr. Biol. 104, 147-163). Forskolin, at a maximally effective concentration of 10 microM, was shown to stimulate Ca2+ extrusion by increasing by a factor of 1.6 +/- 0.5 the Vm of a saturable component, previously identified with a Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase located in the plasma membrane. Neither the Km (80 nM) or Hill coefficient (1.7 +/- 0.3) of the Ca(2+)-ATPase was affected. Forskolin had no effect on the linear, non-saturable component of extrusion (previously identified with a Na+/Ca2+ exchanger) over the [Ca2+]cyt range examined (50-1500 nM). Dibutyryl-cAMP (Bt2-cAMP, 1 mM) stimulated the Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase component of Ca2+ extrusion by a factor of 2.0 +/- 0.6. Separate experiments showed that 10 microM forskolin reduces the resting [Ca2+]cyt from 112 nM to 96 nM. Mathematical analysis showed that this can be accounted for by the above-mentioned increase in Vm of the pump, countered by a 37-74% increase in the rate constant for passive Ca2+ leakage across the plasma membrane. The results suggest two mechanisms by which prostacyclin-induced elevation of cAMP inhibits platelet aggregation: (a) lowering of resting [Ca2+]cyt and (b) increasing the rate of Ca2+ extrusion after the initial influx or triggered release event.

Forskolin, an adenylate cyclase activator, produces a reversible elevation of the endocochlear potential (EP) (Doi et al., 1990a). To determine whether strial Na(+)-K+ ATPase activity is essential for the forskolin-dependent EP elevation, we examined, by means of K(+)-selective microelectrodes, the effects of forskolin on the EP and the endolymphatic K+ activity ([K+]) while strial Na(+)-K+ ATPase was suppressed by ouabain. Perilymphatic perfusion with ouabain (10(-3) M) decreased the EP from 78.5 +/- 2.4 mV to -27.6 +/- 2.4 mV (N = 8) at 37.9 +/- 3.7 min after the start of perfusion and decreased the [K+] from 138.7 +/- 5.4 mM to 103.7 +/- 3.7 mM (N = 3). Successive perfusion with forskolin (2 x 10(-4) M) with ouabain (10(-3) M) increased the EP by 15.1 +/- 1.5 mV (N = 8) but did not influence the [K+] decrease from 101 +/- 3.6 mM to 95 +/- 1.3 mM (N = 3). Forskolin (2 x 10(-4) M) with ouabain (10(-3) M) without a preceding ouabain perfusion decreased the EP from 76.2 +/- 2.3 mV to -12.9 +/- 1.8 mV (N = 6) at 65.3 +/- 2.1 min after the start of perfusion. These results indicate that adenylate cyclase can modulate the EP in the absence of strial Na(+)-K+ ATPase activity and that adenylate cyclase activation can attenuate the EP drop induced by strial Na(+)-K+ ATPase suppression.

cAMP-mediated stimulation of Cl- secretion in the human intestinal cell line T84 is accompanied by significant remodeling of F-actin, and both the secretory and cytoskeletal responses may be largely ablated by previous cell loading with phalloidin derivatives, reagents that prevent dynamic reordering of microfilaments (1991. J. Clin. Invest. 87:1903-1909). In this study, we examined the effect of phalloidin loading on the cAMP-elicited activity of the individual membrane-associated transport proteins involved in electrogenic Cl- secretion. Efflux of 125I and 86Rb was used to assay forskolin-stimulated Cl- and K+ conductances, respectively, and no inhibitory effect of phalloidin could be detected. Na+/K(+)-ATPase pump activity, assessed as bumetanide-insensitive 86Rb uptake and the ability of monolayers to generate a Na+ absorptive current in response to apical addition of a Na+ ionophore, was not different between control and phalloidin-loaded monolayers. Forskolin was found to stimulate Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransport (bumetanide-sensitive 86Rb uptake) in time-dependent fashion. In the absence of any agonist, cotransporter activity was markedly decreased in phalloidin-loaded monolayers. Furthermore, under phalloidin-loaded conditions, the forskolin-elicited increase in bumetanide-sensitive 86Rb uptake was markedly attenuated. These findings suggest that cAMP-induced activity of Cl- channels, K+ channels, and the Na+/K(+)-ATPase are not influenced by F-actin stabilization. However, cAMP-induced activation of the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter appears to be microfilament-dependent, and ablation of this event is likely to account for the inhibition of cAMP-elicited Cl- secretion seen in the phalloidin-loaded state. Such findings suggest that Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter is functionally linked to the cytoskeleton and is a regulated site of cAMP-elicited electrogenic Cl- secretion.

The regulation of the intracellular free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) was monitored in rat sublingual mucous acini using dual wavelength microfluorometry of the Mg(2+)-sensitive dye mag-fura-2. Acini attached to coverslips and superfused continuously with a Mg(2+)-containing medium (0.8 mM) have a steady-state [Mg2+]i of 0.35 +/- 0.01 mM. Adjusting the extracellular Mg2+ concentration to 0 and 10 mM or removing extracellular Na+ did not alter the resting [Mg2+]i. Stimulation with the Ca(2+)-mobilizing, muscarinic agonist, carbachol, induced a sustained increase in [Mg2+]i (approximately 50%; t1/2 < 20 s; Kd approximately 1.5 microM), the magnitude and the duration of which were unchanged in Mg(2+)-depleted medium indicating that the rise in [Mg2+]i was generated by Mg2+ release from an intracellular Mg2+ pool. Forskolin, which increases the intracellular cAMP content, produced a small, transient increase in the [Mg2+]i (< 10%). Muscarinic stimulation in a Ca(2+)-free medium blunted the initial increase in [Mg2+]i by approximately 50%, whereas the sustained increase in [Mg2+]i was lost. When the muscarinic-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was blocked by 8-(diethylamino)octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, an inhibitor of the agonist-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ release pathway, both the initial and the sustained phases of the increase in [Mg2+]i were virtually eliminated. Thapsigargin and 2,5-di-(terbutyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone, which increase [Ca2+]i by inhibiting microsomal Ca(2+)-ATPase, caused a dramatic increase in [Mg2+]i. Stimulation in a Na(+)-free medium or in the presence of bumetanide, an inhibitor of Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransport, blunted the agonist-induced rise in [Mg2+]i (approximately 50%), whereas ouabain, a Na+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, had no significant effect. FCCP (carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone), a mitochondrial uncoupler, mobilized an intracellular Mg2+ pool as well. The carbachol-induced increase in [Mg2+]i was markedly inhibited by FCCP (approximately 80%), suggesting that the same pool(s) of Mg2+ were primarily involved. The above results provide strong evidence that Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonists increase cytoplasmic free [Mg2+] by releasing an intracellular pool of Mg2+ that is associated with a rise in the [Na+]i.

The effect of extracellular calcium (Ca2+) on the cellular action of forskolin was studied using a Na+, K(+)-ATPase inhibitor ouabain in rat renal papillary collecting tubule cells in culture. Forskolin-induced cAMP production was enhanced by the pretreatment of cells with ouabain, providing that a dose-dependent curve with forskolin shifted to the left. The enhancement by ouabain of cellular cAMP production in response to forskolin was totally blunted by cotreatment with cobalt, verapamil, or Ca2(+)-free medium containing 1 mM EGTA. In addition, two dissimilar antagonists of calmodulin, namely trifluoperazine and N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W - 7), attenuated the ouabain's effect on cAMP production in response to forskolin. These results therefore indicate that ouabain enhances the activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin, mediated through cellular free Ca2+, in renal papillary collecting tubule cells, and that extracellular Ca2+ is an important source for cellular Ca2+ mobilization by ouabain.

The mechanism of the inhibitory effect of caffeine on smooth muscle contraction was examined using chicken gizzard. Caffeine (0.1-5 mmol/l) inhibited the KCl-induced contraction of the muscle with an IC50 of 1.1 mmol/l. Forskolin (0.01-10 mumol/l) also inhibited KCl-induced contraction. The inhibitory effect of caffeine was potentiated by a low concentration of forskolin (0.3 mumol/l) and the inhibitory effect of forskolin was potentiated by a low concentration of caffeine (0.1 mmol/l). Although caffeine and forskolin increased tissue cyclic AMP levels, caffeine inhibited the KCl-induced contraction more strongly than forskolin at a given cyclic AMP level. Caffeine (1-40 mmol/l) inhibited the contractions induced by 3 mumol/l Ca2+ in Triton X-100-permeabilized muscle. Caffeine (1-40 mmol/l) inhibited the phosphorylation of 20 kDa myosin light chain (MLC) in native actomyosin preparation and the inhibition was enhanced by decreasing the ATP concentration in the reaction medium. Calmodulin (CaM) activity, as monitored by Ca2+/CaM-dependent erythrocyte membrane (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase, was not affected by 20 mmol/l caffeine. Time-dependent dephosphorylation of MLC upon removal of Ca2+, an indicator of phosphate activity, was not affected by caffeine. Caffeine also inhibited the Ca2(+)-independent contraction in thiophosphorylated permeabilized muscle. These results indicate that caffeine inhibits smooth muscle contraction by a direct inhibition of MLC kinase and actin-myosin interaction. A part of the inhibitory effect may be mediated by cyclic AMP-dependent mechanism(s).

The short term regulation of the activity of the Na,K-pump (Na+,K(+)-ATPase) is just beginning to be understood. By using single microdissected proximal tubule segments (PCT) (permeabilized in order to clamp Na entry), it was possible to study regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in its own environment and in a well defined cell population. The Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity can be regulated over a short term via guanidine triphosphate (GTP) dependent regulatory proteins. However the guanidine proteins are not directly coupled to the Na,K-pump and the mechanism involves the activation of complex intracellular signalling system. Locally produced dopamine induces a dose dependent inhibition of Na+,K+ ATPase activity. This inhibition is mediated by a complex mechanism that requires the activation of both membrane dopamine receptors, DA-1 and DA-2. It involves the activation of a pertussis toxin sensitive GTP-binding protein and activation of protein kinase C. A DA-2 agonist only inhibits Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity when it is incubated together with dibutyryl cAMP or Forskolin. We have therefore concluded that an increase in cellular cAMP levels plays a permissive role for DA-2 inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. A fully differentiated cell is required for dopamine inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. An abnormal regulation of proximal tubule Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity might be of importance in the pathogenesis of certain types of hypertension.

The involvement of Ca2+ and cyclic nucleotides in neurohormonal regulation of Na+-K+-ATPase (Na+-K+ pump) activity in guinea pig pancreatic acinar cells was investigated. Changes in Na+-K+ pump activity elicited by secretagogues were assessed by [3H]ouabain binding and by ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake. Carbachol (CCh) and cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) each stimulated both ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake and equilibrium binding of [3H]ouabain by approximately 60%. Secretin increased both indicators of Na+-K+ pump activity by approximately 40% as did forskolin, 8-bromo- and dibutyryl cAMP, theophylline, and isobutylmethylxanthine. Incubation of acinar cells in Ca2+-free HEPES-buffered Ringer (HR) with 0.5 mM EGTA reduced the stimulatory effects of CCh and CCK-8 by up to 90% but caused only a small reduction in the effects of secretin, forskolin, and cAMP analogues. In addition, CCh, CCK-8, secretin, and forskolin each stimulated ouabain-insensitive 86Rb+ uptake by acinar cells. The increase elicited by CCh and CCK-8 was greatly reduced in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, while that caused by the latter two agents was not substantially altered. The effects of secretagogues on free Ca2+ levels in pancreatic acinar cells also were investigated with quin-2, a fluorescent Ca2+ chelator. Basal intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was 161 nM in resting cells and increased to 713 and 803 nM within 15 s after addition of 100 microM CCh or 10 nM CCK-8, respectively. Forskolin, secretin, and cAMP analogues had no effect on [Ca2+]i, nor did they either reduce or potentiate the rise in [Ca2+]i evoked by CCh.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In order to investigate the possible regulation of brain Na,K-ATPase by cyclic AMP, we measured Na,K-ATPase activity and ouabain binding in cerebral cortex after intraventricular infusion of forskolin for 7 days. There was a dose-related increase in high-affinity ouabain binding, with a 75% increase at 12.5 micrograms/h forskolin. The effect on total enzyme activity was smaller but enzyme activity with high affinity for ouabain was increased by 65%, suggesting a selective effect on enzyme with high affinity for ouabain. Forskolin appeared not to interact directly with Na,K-ATPase in vitro.

Forskolin, a drug isolated from the Indian plant Coleus forskohlii, exerts its actions on cells by directly activating the catalytic subunit of adenylatecyclases. The primary effect on heart muscles is the positive inotropic one, at higher forskolin concentrations, an acceleration of the pacemaker activity can be observed. External Ca2+ is required for this augmentation of contraction, verapamil, prenylamine and tetrodotoxin depress these effects. The action of forskolin and digitalis glycosides are to a certain degree additive. Incubation of rat heart slices with forskolin depresses the membrane bound Na+K+-ATPase activity. In smooth muscle cells, forskolin lowers the contractions, evoked by K+, norepinephrine and by angiotensin II. The results are discussed in respect to a forskolin induced enlargement of the Ca2+-uptake of heart muscle cells and a lowering of the Ca2+-sensitivity of the contractile system of smooth muscle cells.
