We have demonstrated previously that a variety of agents including corticosteroids, thyroid hormone, cationophores, methylxanthines, and analogues of
cAMP
--all of which have diversified functions in various tissues--elevate cellular angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity of bovine endothelial cells in culture. In addition to these agents, we have now found that direct and receptor-mediated stimulators of adenylate cyclase, i.e., forskolin and cholera toxin, increase cellular ACE activity after 48 h incubation in culture. In an attempt to search out a more unifying concept of these stimulatory effects, we have further investigated the roles of second messengers in the stimulatory actions. Ca2+ ionophore A23187 produced significant increases in both intracellular Ca2+ and ACE of endothelial cells. In contrast to Ca2+ ionophore, agents that transiently mobilize Ca2+ from intracellular reserves such as bradykinin, acetylcholine, and ATP have no effect on the level of cellular ACE. Representative agents that elevate cellular
cAMP
(e.g., isobutyl methylxanthine [IBMX] and dibutyryl
cAMP
) elevated cellular ACE, but the slightly increased [Ca2+]i produced by these agents did not reach statistical significance. While IBMX, cholera toxin, and forskolin elevated cellular
cAMP
, other ACE stimulatory agents (hormones and cationophores) had no effect on
cAMP
. Ca2+ ionophore and the agents that elevated intracellular
cAMP
potentiated the effect of dexamethasone, thyroid hormone, and aldosterone in elevating cellular ACE activity. Increases in ACE activity produced by all stimulants were inhibited by the presence of 10-50 nM ouabain in the culture medium. Inhibition of ACE elevation by oubain was reversed by increasing the extracellular [K+], thereby implicating Na+, K(+)-
ATPase
in the ACE regulatory mechanism. These results support the presence of multiple independent mechanisms for the regulation of cellular ACE. In addition to possible involvement of intracellular Ca(2+)- and
cAMP
-dependent pathways, ACE is also increased by corticosteroids and thyroid hormone through mechanisms unrelated to Ca2+ and
cAMP
.

A nucleoside
triphosphatase
(NTPase) activity appeared to be associated with a highly purified nuclear preparation from rat cardiac ventricles. Different nucleoside triphosphates (UTP greater than GTP greater than ITP greater than CTP) supported this enzymic activity, which was stimulated by Mg2+ but not by Ca2+. The nuclear NTPase activity could be down regulated by endogenous phosphorylation of a 55,000 Mr protein. Maximal phosphorylation of the 55,000 Mr protein occurred in the presence of Mg(2+)-ATP. Addition of
cAMP
, cGMP, Ca2+, Ca2+/phospholipid, Ca2+/calmodulin, and catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was not associated with any further phosphorylation of the 55,000 Mr protein. However, in the presence of Ca2+/calmodulin or the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase additional proteins became phosphorylated, but these had no effect on the Mg(2+)-NTPase activity. These results indicate that a protein with Mr 55,000 may be involved in the regulation the Mg(2+)-NTPase activity associated with rat cardiac nuclei.

The effect of isoproterenol on the electrophysiological properties of the S2 proximal segment of the rabbit was examined. Isoproterenol at 10(-8) to 10(-4) M depolarized the basolateral membrane voltage (Vb) in a dose-dependent manner. Propranolol attenuated the isoproterenol-induced depolarization. These possible mechanisms of cell depolarization were explored. The role of luminal Na(+)-organic solute cotransport was negligible, since the removal of organic solute did not change the depolarization. Basolateral Na(+)-(HCO3-) cotransport was supported by the finding that 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid inhibited isoproterenol-induced depolarization. Basolateral K+ conductance was suggested by the finding that the application of Ba2+ blocked the isoproterenol-induced depolarization. Na(+)-K(+)-adenosine-
triphosphatase
(ATPase) was questionable. Although ouabain blocked isoproterenol-induced depolarization, the removal of Na+ did not inhibit the depolarization. Further experiment revealed that dibutylyl-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (
cAMP
), 8-bromo
cAMP
, and forskolin did not mimic the response of isoproterenol. These results demonstrate: 1) there is a functional beta-adrenoceptor that depolarizes Vb; 2) isoproterenol-induced depolarization is due to an inhibition of basolateral K+ channel or the activation of basolateral Na(+)-(HCO3-)n cotransport; 3) isoproteronol-induced depolarization is independent of
cAMP
in the rabbit proximal tubule.

Organotin compounds have been shown to interfere with cardiovascular system. We have studied the in vitro and in vivo effects of tributyltin bromide (TBT), triethyltin bromide (TET) and trimethyltin chloride (TMT) on the cardiac SR Ca2+ pump, as well as on protein phosphorylation of SR proteins, in order to understand the relative potency of these tin compounds. All the three tin compounds inhibited cardiac SR 45Ca uptake and Ca(2+)-
ATPase
in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner. The order of potency for Ca(2+)-
ATPase
as determined by IC50, is TBT (2 microM) greater than TET (63 microM) greater than TMT (280 microM). For 45Ca uptake, it followed the same order i.e., TBT (0.35 microM) greater than TET (10 microM) greater than TMT (440 microM). In agreement with the in vitro results, both SR Ca(2+)-
ATPase
and 45Ca uptake were significantly inhibited in rats treated with these tin compounds, indicating that these tin compounds inhibit cardiac SR Ca2+ transport.
cAMP
significantly elevated (70-80%) the 32P-binding to SR proteins in vitro in the absence of any organotin. In the presence of organotins,
cAMP
-stimulated 32P-binding to proteins was significantly reduced, but the decrease was concentration dependent only at lower concentrations. The order of potency is TBT greater than TET greater than TMT. In agreement with in vitro studies,
cAMP
-dependent 32P bound to proteins was significantly reduced in rats treated with TBT, TET and TMT. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the cardiac SR revealed at least 30 Coomassie blue stainable bands ranging from 9 to 120 kDa.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of the enantiomers of 2-[[[3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridyl]methyl]-sulfinyl ]- 1H-benzimidazole (lansoprazole, AG-1749) on acid formation in isolated canine parietal cells and (H+ + K+)-
ATPase
activity in canine gastric microsomes were investigated. Both the (+)-and the (-)-enantiomer of lansoprazole inhibited the acid formation stimulated by dibutyryl cyclic AMP (db-cAMP) in isolated canine parietal cells in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 values of 59 and 82 nM, respectively. The enantiomers showed concentration-dependent inhibition of (H+ + K+)-
ATPase
with IC50 values of 4.2 and 5.2 microM, respectively. On the other hand, the IC50 values of lansoprazole for db-
cAMP
-stimulated acid formation and (H+ + K+)-
ATPase
were 59 nM and 2.1 microM, respectively. These results suggest that the two enantiomers of lansoprazole have antisecretory action due to inhibition of (H+ + K+)-
ATPase
.

Triorganotins have been reported to affect heme metabolism as well as the cardiovascular system. Our recent studies indicated that these organotins inhibit cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-transport and
cAMP
-stimulated phosphorylation of specific proteins involved in Ca2+ transport, suggesting their interference with cardiac adrenergic function. The present study determines the effect of three organotins--tributyltin bromide (TBT), triethyltin bromide (TET) and trimethyltin chloride (TMT)--on rat cardiac ATPases and catecholamine binding, since these phenomena are involved in cardiac function. Cardiac membrane fraction was prepared from heart ventricles of male Sprague-Dawley rats. All three organotins inhibited cardiac Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
, [3H]ouabain binding, K(+)-activated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K(+)-PNPPase) and oligomycin-sensitive (OS) and oligomycin-insensitive (OI) Mg(2+)-ATPase in a concentration-dependent manner. K(+)-PNPPase was less sensitive to these triorganotins when compared to Na+K(+)-
ATPase
, suggesting that triorganotins affect the Na(+)-pump activity by acting on the Na(+)-dependent phosphorylation process. OS Mg(2+)-ATPase was more sensitive to these organotins when compared to OI Mg(2+)-ATPase, confirming their potent effect on the enzymes of oxidative phosphorylation. The order of potency is TBT greater than TET greater than TMT. TET and TMT, but not TBT, inhibited [3H]norepinephrine and [3H]dopamine binding to cardiac membranes in a concentration-dependent manner, the effect being more with TET. These results suggest that triorganotins inhibit sodium pump activity as well as ATP synthesis. Since Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
is involved in the active transport of catecholamines, triorganotins not only inhibited the catecholamine transport but also to some extent affected catecholamine binding, thus interfering with cardiac function.

The Ca(2+)-pump ATPases of the plasma membrane and of the endoplasmic reticulum play an important role in controlling the intracellular Ca(2+)-concentration. In this perspective it is not unexpected that these enzymes are modulated by different factors. The activity of the plasmalemmal (Ca2+ +Mg2+)
ATPase
is modified by the amount of negatively charged phospholipids surrounding the enzyme. Some evidence is presented indicating that in stomach and myometrium smooth muscle agonists inhibit the extrusion of Ca2+ by reducing the negatively charged phospholipids surrounding the plasmalemmal Ca(2+)-pump, while c-GMP dependent protein kinase would activate this Ca(2+)-pump by increasing this amount. The regulation of the Ca(2+)-pump of the endoplasmic reticulum depends on the phosphorylation of phospholamban by
cAMP
- and cGMP-dependent protein kinase. In the second part of this review, the heterogeneity of the intracellular Ca2+ compartments and a possible connection between the intracellular compartment and the extracellular solution are discussed. In addition, some data on the regulation of Ca2+ inside the nucleus are presented.

We studied the effects of ethanol (0.1-10%) on acid secretion of parietal cell-rich fractions isolated from guinea pig gastric mucosa. Ethanol (0.1-3%) increased histamine-stimulated
cAMP
content, while over 1% ethanol decreased histamine-stimulated acid secretion. H+, K(+)-
ATPase
activity in microsomal fraction also decreased after treatment with 3% ethanol. Thus, ethanol may disturb the signalling process from
cAMP
to H+, K(+)-
ATPase
. On the other hand, carbachol-stimulated acid secretion was more sensitive to ethanol than that with histamine, and 0.1% ethanol suppressed the acid secretion. This effect was well correlated with the extent of the ethanol-induced increase of [Ca2+]i and with the attenuation of [Ca2+]i response following carbachol stimulation. The calcium response may be a primary target against ethanol in carbachol-dependent process. In conclusion, low-dose ethanol have multi-effects on these critical intermediary steps in acid secretion.

A monoclonal antibody against phospholamban has been reported to increase Ca2+ uptake by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. We compared the effect of this antibody on Ca2+ pump
ATPase
activity of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles to the effect of
cAMP
-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban. The antibody markedly stimulated the Ca(2+)-dependent
ATPase
activity in parallel to the increase in Ca2+ uptake by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. When the Ca(2+)-dependent profile of the
ATPase
activity was compared, the KCa was shifted from 1.24 to 0.62 microM by the antibody, whereas
cAMP
-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban shifted the KCa to 0.84 microM. When cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were treated with both cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the antibody, the stimulation was the same as that with the antibody alone. Thus, the Ca2+ pump
ATPase
seems to be fully activated by the antibody. The stoichiometry between Ca2+ uptake and
ATPase
rate was around 1 and no significant change was observed by the treatment with the antibody. Therefore, the stimulation of Ca2+ uptake of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum by the antibody occurred by the stimulation of Ca2+ pump
ATPase
, not by other mechanisms such as channel activity of phospholamban. These results indicate that the binding of the antibody to phospholamban produces essentially the same mode of action on Ca2+ pump
ATPase
as that of phospholamban phosphorylation. The antibody and phospholamban phosphorylation appear to release the inhibitory action of phospholamban on Ca2+ pump
ATPase
, resulting in the stimulation of Ca2+ pump.

We investigated the effect of hydrogen peroxide on the process of thyroid hormone formation in a physiologic culture system of porcine thyroid follicles that we recently established. Porcine thyroid follicles cultured in medium containing 1 mU/mL TSH were exposed to 0 to 500 microM hydrogen peroxide in the presence of 0.1 microCi carrier-free Na125 and sodium iodide for 2 h. Iodide uptake and iodine organification were measured in this incubation system. The kinetics of iodide uptake were used to explain the action of hydrogen peroxide. In addition,
cAMP
content and Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity (an enzyme necessary for iodide uptake) were measured to investigate the mechanism of hydrogen peroxide action. Hydrogen peroxide at concentrations of 100, 200, and 500 microM inhibited iodide uptake in a dose-dependent manner. Iodide organification was inhibited only when the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was greater than 200 microM. The kinetics of iodide uptake indicated that hydrogen peroxide was a noncompetitive inhibitor with iodide. Inhibition of iodide uptake and iodine organification by hydrogen peroxide were not mediated by alteration of
cAMP
content of Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity, since exposure to even 500 microM hydrogen peroxide did not change these parameters in the follicle when compared with those of control samples. Our results suggest that the iodide transport system in the thyroid follicle is inhibited at 200 microM hydrogen peroxide or greater.
