In membranes of neuroblastoma x glioma (NG108-15) hybrid cells, the photoreactive GTP analog, [alpha-32P] GTP azidoanilide, was incorporated into 39-41-kDa proteins comigrating in urea-containing sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels with immunologically identified G-protein alpha-subunits, i.e. a 39-kDa Go alpha-subunit, a 40-kDa Gi2 alpha-subunit, and a 41-kDa Gi alpha-subunit of an unknown subtype. The synthetic opioid, D-Ala2,D-Leu5-enkephalin (DADLE), stimulated photolabeling of the 39-41-kDa proteins. In the presence of GDP, which increased the ratio of agonist-stimulated to basal photolabeling, DADLE at a maximally effective concentration stimulated photolabeling of the 39- and the 40-kDa protein 2-3-fold. Somatostatin, adrenaline, and bradykinin were less potent than DADLE and, to varying degrees, stimulated photolabeling of the 40-kDa protein more than that of the 39-kDa protein. Prostaglandin E1 was inactive. The present data represent direct evidence for an activation of endogenous Go and Gi2 via opioid receptors and other receptors in the native membrane milieu.

D1 dopamine receptors on NS20Y neuroblastoma cells stimulate adenylate cyclase activity, whereas muscarinic receptors on the same cells negatively regulate adenylate cyclase. To determine the mechanisms which underlie these processes, cyclic AMP accumulation was measured in intact cells following either cholera or pertussis toxin treatment. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml), which ribosylated greater than 95% of inhibitory quinine nucleotide binding protein (Gi), caused the complete loss of muscarinic induced inhibition. Conversely, pertussis toxin did not affect the ability of dihydrexidine (1 microM, a full efficacy D1 agonist), PGE1 (100 nM), or forskolin (1 microM, a direct activator) to stimulate cAMP accumulation. Both the dihydrexidine-induced stimulation and the carbachol-induced inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation were unaffected by either removal of extracellular calcium, or increased intracellular calcium caused by the addition of the calcium ionophore A23187. Cholera toxin dose- and time-dependently induced large accumulations of cAMP. At low cholera toxin concentrations, the effects of dihydrexidine (300 nM) were additive with those of cholera toxin. At cholera toxin concentrations greater than 100 ng/ml, dihydrexidine became ineffective in stimulating further cAMP synthesis. Conversely, forskolin (1 microM) still caused marked increases in cAMP accumulation after all cholera toxin treatments. Dihydrexidine-stimulated cAMP accumulation was additive with forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation at low forskolin concentrations (10 nM-3 microM), but synergistic at high concentrations (3-100 microM). Additionally, forskolin was much more potent after cholera toxin treatment, suggesting that an activated stimulatory guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gs) may be required for full activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin in this cell type.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The increase in hormone-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation observed in a variety of intact cells after chronic pretreatment with drugs that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity has been attributed to an increase in adenylate cyclase activity following withdrawal of the inhibitory drug. In NG 108-15 mouse neuroblastoma X rat glioma hybrid cells (NG cells) chronically treated with the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbachol, we have found a significant decrease in the apparent degradation rate constant for cyclic AMP, in addition to an increase in the prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-stimulated cyclic AMP synthesis rate in intact cells. In carbachol-pretreated NG cells that were stimulated with a maximally effective dose of PGE1, and that accumulated steady-state cyclic AMP concentrations fourfold or more higher than in control cells, the apparent rate constant for degradation was about 53% lower than the value for control cells. In carbachol-pretreated cells stimulated with a submaximal dose of PGE1 to yield a steady-state cyclic AMP concentration comparable to control cells, the apparent rate constant was 31% lower than the value for control cells. In S49 mouse lymphoma cells (S49 cells) chronically treated with an analog of the inhibitory agonist somatostatin, the first-order rate constant for cyclic AMP degradation in intact cells following isoproterenol stimulation was 29% lower than the value for control cells. Despite these changes in the kinetics of cyclic AMP degradation in intact NG cells and S49 cells, there was either no change or a minimal change (less than 10%) in phosphodiesterase activities assayed in extracts of cells chronically exposed to inhibitory drugs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The human neuroblastoma clonal cell line SH-SY5Y expresses both mu- and delta-opioid receptors (ratio approximately 4.5:1). Differentiation with retinoic acid (RA) was previously shown to enhance the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase (AC) by mu-opioid agonists. We tested here the inhibition of cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation by morphine under a variety of conditions: after stimulation with prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), forskolin, and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), both in the presence and in the absence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). Morphine inhibition of the forskolin cAMP response (approximately 65%) was largely unaffected by the presence of IBMX. In contrast, deletion of IBMX enhanced morphine's inhibition of the PGE1 and VIP cAMP response from approximately 50 to approximately 80%. The use of highly mu- and delta-selective agents confirmed previous results that inhibition of cAMP accumulation by opioids is mostly mu, and not delta, receptor mediated in SH-SY5Y cells, regardless of the presence or absence of IBMX. Because of the large morphine inhibition and the high cAMP levels even in the absence of IBMX, PGE1-stimulated, RA-differentiated SH-SY5Y cells were subsequently used to study narcotic analgesic tolerance and dependence in vitro. Upon pretreatment with morphine over greater than or equal to 12 h, a fourfold shift of the PGE1-morphine dose-response curve was observed, whether or not IBMX was added. However, mu-opioid receptor number and affinity to the mu-selective [D-Ala2, N-Me-Phe4, Gly5-ol]enkephalin were largely unaffected, and Na(+)- and guanyl nucleotide-induced shifts of morphine-[3H]naloxone competition curves were unchanged.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have investigated the modulatory action of carbachol on intracellular cAMP levels in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Carbachol enhanced forskolin-stimulated cAMP levels in a dose-dependent manner (EC50 = 3 microM). The enhancing effect of carbachol was completely inhibited by pirenzepine and atropine. Pertussis toxin treatment of the cells partially affected the ability of carbachol. Furthermore, carbachol also enhanced the effect of vasoactive intestinal peptide (EC50 = 3 microM)-, adenosine- and prostaglandin E1-stimulated cAMP levels. The enhancing response of carbachol was sensitive to trifluoperazine but insensitive to calphostin C. These results suggest that the mechanism for carbachol-induced cAMP levels may act, at least in part, through the activation of calmodulin system in SH-SY5Y cells. Hence we describe for the first time a synergistic interaction between calmodulin- and cAMP-dependent signal transduction pathway mediated by carbachol in neuron-derived cell line.

Dopamine or agonists with D1 receptor potency stimulated cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation in whole cell preparations of NS20Y neuroblastoma cells. The accumulation of cAMP after D1 stimulation was rapid and linear for 3 min. Both dopamine and the novel D1 receptor agonist dihydrexidine stimulated cAMP accumulation two- to three-fold over baseline. The pseudo-Km for dopamine was approximately 2 microM, whereas for dihydrexidine it was approximately 30 nM. The effects of both drugs were blocked by either the D1-selective antagonist SCH23390 (Ki, 0.3 nM) or the nonselective antagonist (+)-butaclamol (Ki, 5 nM). Both (-)-butaclamol and the D2-selective antagonist (-)-sulpiride were ineffective (Ki greater than 3 microM). Forskolin (10 microM), prostaglandin E1 (1 microM), and adenosine (10 microM) also stimulated cAMP accumulation, but none were antagonized by SCH23390 (1 microM). Finally, muscarinic receptor stimulation (100 microM carbachol) inhibited both D1- and forskolin-stimulated increases in cAMP accumulation by 80%. The present results indicate that NS20Y neuroblastoma cells have D1 receptors that are coupled to adenylate cyclase, and that these receptors have a pharmacological profile similar to that of the D1 receptor(s) found in rat striatum.

Specific binding site for 125I-angiotensin II (Ang II), with unique pharmacological properties uncommon to the hitherto recognized receptor subtypes, was observed in mouse neuroblastoma cells (Neuro-2A). Differentiation of the cells with 100 nM PGE1 resulted in a 10-fold increase in the number of Ang II binding sites without changing the binding affinity (Kd value: 12.0 nM). 125I-Ang II binding to membranes of differentiated Neuro-2A was inhibited by unlabeled Ang II with a Ki value of 7.06 +/- 1.09 nM but not by Ang III (1 microM). Both AT1 antagonist, Dup753, and AT2 antagonist, PD123319, failed to inhibit 125I-Ang II binding at 1 microM. 125I-Ang II binding was not affected by GTP analogs such as GTP gamma S and Gpp(NH)p. These results suggest that Neuro-2A cells possess a binding site for Ang II which is different from the presently known subtypes of Ang II receptors, and that the number of the binding site is regulated by cell differentiation.

We have tested the ability of various compounds to raise intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels and, either alone or in combination with retinoic acid (RA), to promote differentiation of two "RA-resistant" sublines of LA-N-5 human neuroblastoma cells, designated LA-N-5HP and LA-N-5R9. Direct activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin and cholera toxin increased intracellular cAMP levels over 10-fold in both cell lines after 1 h of treatment, after which the levels slowly declined for the next 16 to 24 h. After 5 days of continuous treatment, cAMP levels still remained 2- to 7-fold elevated above controls and were accompanied by a decrease in cell proliferation and an increase in neurite outgrowth. All these effects were exaggerated when the agents were combined with phosphodiesterase enzyme inhibitors. Increasing cAMP levels (up to 24-fold) with N6,O2'-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) or 8-bromo-cAMP also resulted in decreased proliferation and an increase in morphological differentiation. Isoproterenol and epinephrine did not alter cAMP levels and had no discernible biological effects. Of the agents that raised cAMP levels, only dbcAMP caused an increase in acetylcholinesterase activity. This effect was duplicated with sodium butyrate and prostaglandin E1 in the absence of an increase in cAMP. RA promoted differentiation but also had little effect on cAMP levels. Combination treatment of cells with RA plus agents that raised cAMP levels resulted in greater degrees of differentiation than seen with single agent treatments. We conclude that: (a) the cAMP synthetic and degradative pathways are functional in LA-N-5HP and LA-N-5R9 cells; (b) elevation of cAMP is sufficient for inhibiting proliferation and promoting neurite outgrowth from these cells, but is not a necessary condition for inducing differentiation; and (c) elevation of intracellular cAMP potentiates the differentiation-inducing activity of RA.

Many cells develop an adaptive increase in the capacity of adenylate cyclase to synthesize cyclic AMP (cAMP) after prolonged (hours or days) exposure to drugs which initially inhibit enzyme activity. Recent evidence suggests that adaptive increases in cAMP responses can be induced within minutes by inhibitory drugs. We have investigated the kinetics for induction and decay of this phenomenon in mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid cells. The muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbachol induced an increase in prostaglandin E1-stimulated cAMP accumulation within 2 min of pretreatment with carbachol; the increase was 70 to 100% above control values after exposure to carbachol for 30 min. Enhanced cAMP responsiveness decayed with a half-life of about 8 min after removal of carbachol. Pretreatment with carbachol for 30 hr led to an enhanced cAMP response which decayed in two components, a rapid component and an additional, more stable component which persisted for at least 2 hr after withdrawal of carbachol. Pertussis toxin prevented these effects of carbachol. Prevention of carbachol-induced inhibition of cAMP accumulation below basal concentrations with a phosphodiesterase inhibitor did not prevent the ability of carbachol to acutely induce augmented prostaglandin E1-stimulated cAMP accumulation. Mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid cells exhibit an enhanced cAMP response after both acute and chronic exposure to a muscarinic cholinergic agonist although these processes decay with different time courses. The signal for this acutely induced adaptation does not appear to be the decrease in cellular cAMP concentration resulting from inhibition of adenylate cyclase but does require a pertussis toxin-sensitive substrate.

Chronic opioid treatment of neuroblastoma x glioma NG108-15 cells induces desensitization of the opioid receptor and this may involve a change in membrane protein phosphorylation. In an attempt to mimic this possible mechanism, we studied effects of phorbol ester activation of protein kinase C on opioid receptor activity. Incubation of NG108-15 hybrid cells with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) abolished up to 45% of opioid inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation in intact cells, while basal accumulation and prostaglandin E1-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation were unaltered. This decrease of opioid inhibition was dose- and time-dependent and the potency order of phorbol esters and apparent K activation (90 nM) for TPA were consistent with phorbol esters acting through the stimulation of protein kinase C. TPA also decreased the inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation mediated through muscarinic and alpha-2 adrenergic receptors. These effects of TPA were best explained by a TPA-induced alteration of the inhibitory nucleotide-binding protein (Gi), the common transducer protein of these receptors. Impairment of Gi by TPA treatment was evidenced by a reduction in agonist-stimulated GTP hydrolysis and activation by GTP. Quantification of Gi by pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation revealed that TPA decreased maximal labeling. In summary, phorbol esters appeared to attenuate opioid receptor activity by altering the activity of the transducer protein Gi.
