Diminished Na+-K+-ATPase activity in diabetic peripheral nerve plays a central role in the early electrophysiological, metabolic, and morphological abnormalities of experimental diabetic neuropathy. The defect in Na+-K+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) regulation in diabetic nerve is linked experimentally to glucose- and sorbitol-induced depletion of nerve myo-inositol but is not fully understood at a molecular level. Therefore, regulation of nerve Na+-K+-ATPase activity by phosphoinositide-derived diacylglycerol was explored as the putative link between myo-inositol depletion and the Na+-K+-ATPase impairment responsible for slowed saltatory conduction in diabetic animal models. In vitro exposure of endoneurial preparations from alloxan-diabetic rabbits to two protein kinase C agonists, 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate and 1,2-(but not 1,3-) dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol, for as little as 1 min completely and specifically corrected the 40% decreased enzymatically measured ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity. Neither of these agonists affected ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity in endoneurial preparations derived from nondiabetic controls. These observations are compatible with the hypothesis that metabolites of electrically stimulated phosphoinositide turnover such as diacylglycerol acutely regulate nerve Na+-K+-ATPase activity, probably via protein kinase C, thereby tightly coupling energy-dependent Na+-K+-antiport with impulse conduction in peripheral nerve. Glucose-induced depletion of myo-inositol presumably limits phosphoinositide turnover and diacylglycerol production, thereby disrupting this putative regulatory mechanism for Na+-K+-ATPase in diabetic peripheral nerve.

We have found a defect in the ouabain-sensitive Na+, K+-ATPase (Na+ pump, EC 3.6.1.37) of erythrocytes from streptozocin diabetic rats. This defect was accompanied by an increase in cell volume and osmotic fragility and a decrease in the cytosolic K+/Na+ ratio. There was also a doubling in the time needed for diabetic erythrocytes to pass through 4.7-micron channels in a polycarbonate filter. Our data are consistent with a primary defect in the erythrocyte Na+ pump and secondary changes in cell volume, osmotic fragility, K+/Na+ ratio, and cell filterability. All were reversed or prevented in vivo by insulin or the aldose reductase inhibitor Sorbinil. Protein kinase C agonists (phorbol ester and diacylglycerol) and agonist precursor (myoinositol) reversed the Na+ pump lesion, suggesting that protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation of the 100-kDa subunit regulates Na+ pump activity and that insulin can influence erythrocyte protein kinase C activity. Ouabain inhibition of the erythrocyte Na+ pump also produced increases in cell size and reductions in rates of filtration. Theoretical treatment of the volume changes also predicts reduction in filterability as a consequence of cell swelling. We suggest that enlarged erythrocytes could play a role in the evolution of the microvascular changes of diabetes mellitus.

A 47-kilodalton neutrophil cytosol factor (NCF-47k), required for activation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase superoxide (O2-.) production, is absent in most patients with autosomal recessive chronic granulomatous disease (AR-CGD). NCF-47k cDNAs were cloned from an expression library. The largest clone predicted a 41.9-kD protein that contained an arginine and serine-rich COOH-terminal domain with potential protein kinase C phosphorylation sites. A 33-amino acid segment of NCF-47k shared 49% identity with ras p21 guanosine triphosphatase activating protein. Recombinant NCF-47k restored O2-. -producing activity to AR-CGD neutrophil cytosol in a cell-free assay. Production of active recombinant NCF-47k will enable functional regions of this molecule to be mapped.

Dopamine, like other neurotransmitters, exerts its biological effects by occupation of specific receptor subtypes. The dopamine receptors in the central nervous system and certain endocrine organs are classified into the D1/D2 subtypes. Outside the central nervous system, the dopamine receptors are classified into the DA1/DA2 subtypes. The D1/D2 and DA1/DA2 receptor have marked similarities and some differences, the most notable of which is the lower affinity of the DA dopamine compared with the D dopamine receptor. DA1 receptor activation increases renal blood flow (RBF); stimulation of DA1 and DA2 receptors may also increase glomerular filtration rate (GFR). DA1 agonists inhibit fluid and electrolyte transport indirectly via hemodynamic mechanisms and directly by occupation of DA1 receptors in specific nephron segments. In the proximal tubule, DA1 agonists simulate adenylate cyclase and inhibit Na+-H+ antiport activity. They also increase phospholipase C and inhibit Na+-K+-ATPase activity (presumably as a consequence of protein kinase C activation). The latter effects may be facilitated by DA2 agonists. In cortical collecting ducts, dopamine antagonizes the effects of mineralocorticoids and the hydrosomotic effect of antidiuretic hormone. It has also been suggested that DA1 may also decrease sodium transport by influencing other hormones, such as atrial natriuretic peptide. Studies of dopamine in the young are complicated because of the propensity for dopamine to stimulate alpha-adrenoceptors. Dopamine alone may actually decrease RBF in the perinatal period. In some animals, the renal vasodilatory and natriuretic effects of dopamine increase with age. Renal tubular DA1-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity increases, whereas renal tubular DA1 receptors decrease with age. Renal DA2 receptor density is greater in the fetus; after birth renal DA2 receptors do not change. Endogenous dopamine may regulate sodium excretion in the young differently than in the adult. In the adult, sodium surfeit is associated with an increase in urinary dopamine; the opposite occurs in the young. A decrease in dopamine production or blockade of dopamine receptors results in an antinatriuresis in the adult; dopamine blockade in the young results in a natriuresis. It remains to be determined whether these age-related differences in dopamine effects are due to changes in receptor DA subtype density, second messengers, and/or interaction with other receptors.

As an extension of our previous reports that cardiac and skeletal muscle troponin I (Tn-I) and troponin T (Tn-T) are excellent substrates for protein kinase C (PKC) (Katoh, N., Wise, B. C., and Kuo, J. F. (1983) Biochem. J. 209, 189-195; Mazzei, G. J., and Kuo, J. F. (1984) Biochem. J. 218, 361-369), we have now determined that PKC phosphorylated serine 43 (and/or serine 45), serine 78, and threonine 144 in the free Tn-I subunit and threonine 190, threonine 199, and threonine 280 in the free Tn-T subunit of bovine cardiac troponin. PKC appeared to phosphorylate the same sites of the subunits present in the form of the troponin complex, as indicated by the similarity in the two-dimensional phosphopeptide maps. Although some of the phosphorylation sites were shared by other classes of protein kinases, PKC exhibited a distinct substrate specificity. It was also noted that phosphorylated serine and threonine residues in Tn-I and Tn-T had neighboring basic amino acid residues separated by 1 or 2 other residues both at the amino and carboxyl termini, in agreement with the conclusion of House et al. (House, C., Wettenhall, R. E. H., and Kemp, B. E. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 772-777) based upon their studies on other substrate proteins. Several peptides having sequences around the phosphorylating sites have been synthesized. The phosphorylation experiments indicated that these peptides were substrates for PKC, and their relative substrate activity (determined by the ratios of Vmax/Km) compared with other proteins, in descending order, was Tn-I = Tn-I(134-154) greater than Tn-T much greater than histone H1 greater than Tn-I(33-35) approximately Tn-T(268-284) greater than Tn-T(179-198) approximately Tn-T(191-209). It is suggested that PKC phosphorylation of Tn-I and Tn-T could be biologically significant in terms of possible modifications in interactions among the individual contractile protein components as well as the Ca2+ sensitivity and activity of actomyosin ATPase.

Sequestration of calcium into an intracellular storage site is an important mechanism in helping to maintain a low cytoplasmic Ca2+ level in many cells. In platelets, increasing cytoplasmic cAMP lowers the free calcium level in correlation with the phosphorylation of a 22 kD protein. This protein has been thought to enhance uptake of calcium into a platelet membrane bound storage site by activating a calcium-ATPase activity by analogy with phospholamban in cardiac muscle. The evidence for an analogue of phospholamban in platelets is unclear. A pathway involving cAMP dependent kinase also seems unlikely to account for the transience of the calcium signal following agonists in platelets, some of which inhibit the cAMP dependent kinase. Here we discuss the issue of whether activation of protein kinase C, which follows agonist action, leads to enhanced calcium sequestration in platelets and if so, what indications there are for a mechanism. The evidence from our experiments with phorbol myristate acetate treated platelets shows that such an enhancement can be produced by activating protein kinase C. Phosphorylation studies suggest the involvement of a polypeptide or polypeptides distinct from the 22 kD polypeptide. Further work to test this idea is necessary. A brief overview of research on the role of phosphoproteins in calcium regulation in platelets and comparison with their role in cardiac muscle is also presented.

Kaempferol, 3,5,7-trihydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, was found to inhibit bovine aorta myosin light chain kinase with a Ki of 0.3-0.5 microM. It was found to be competitive with ATP and non-competitive with isolated myosin light chains. The specificity of this inhibitor was studied relative to protein kinase C and cAMP dependent protein kinase (IC50 = 15 microM and 150 microM, respectively). It appears not to interact strongly with calmodulin binding proteins, such as Ca2+-calmodulin dependent phosphodiesterase (IC50 = 45 microM), and had little effect on actin-activated myosin subfragment-1 ATPase activity (IC50 greater than 100 microM) or smooth muscle phosphatase activities (IC50 greater than 100 microM).

Several newly synthesized 4-hydroxycinnamamide derivatives such as 3-(3',5'-di-isopropyl-4'-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-oxindol (ST 280), 3-(3',5'-di-methylthiomethyl-4'-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-oxindole (ST 458), alpha-cyano-3-ethoxy-4-hydroxy-5-phenylthiomethylcinnamamide (ST 638) and 3-(3'-ethoxy-4'-hydroxy-5'-phenylthiomethylbenzylidene)-2-pyrol idinone (ST 642) were found to inhibit tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor with IC50 values of 0.44 microM, 0.44 microM, 0.37 microM and 0.85 microM, respectively. None of them showed inhibitory effect on the enzyme activities of serine- and/or threonine-specific protein kinases such as cAMP-dependent protein kinase, Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C, casein kinase I and casein kinase II. In addition, none of them had effect on Na+/K+-ATPase or 5'-nucleotidase. The results suggest that the compound ST 280, ST 458, ST 638 and ST 642 are potent and specific inhibitors of tyrosine-specific protein kinase.

The inhibitory effects of Ca2+-binding proteins on tyrosine phosphorylation of p36 protein isolated from bovine intestinal epithelium by immunoprecipitated p130fps were investigated. S-100 protein dose dependently inhibited the p36 phosphorylation, and calmodulin weakly depressed the phosphorylation, whereas parvalbumin and troponin C had no significant effects. The S-100 preparation purified from bovine brain did not contain phosphatase activity or ATPase activity. The concentration of ATP did not affect the S-100-mediated inhibition of phosphorylation but the substrate protein, p36, reversed the inhibition. S-100 similarly inhibited the tyrosine phosphorylation of p36 by p60src but did not affect the p36 phosphorylation by protein kinase C. S-100 inhibited the tyrosine kinase activity of p130fps using the other substrates tested as well. These results suggest that S-100 interacts with the substrate binding site of retroviral tyrosine-specific protein kinases and may play a regulatory role in the tyrosine phosphorylation.

The activity of the Na,K-ATPase can be sensitive to physiological changes in Cai. Intracellular proteins such as calnaktin, calmodulin, and protein kinase C could regulate the pump during transient changes in Cai. The mechanisms by which these proteins interact with the Na,K-ATPase, their distribution in different kinds of cells, and their role in regulating the Na,K-ATPase are not yet determined. Preliminary data indicate that an increase in Cai within the physiological range could be associated with either a stimulation or an inhibition of enzyme activity or a change in the affinity of the Na,K-ATPase for ouabain. The type of response probably depends on the kind of cell, its associated intracellular proteins, and its physiological state. Ca and intracellular proteins could play a key role in the regulation of the Na,K-ATPase by hormones.
