The chronotropic response of the heart to alpha 1-adrenergic catecholamines influenced by pertussis toxin under certain conditions. In view of the fact that alpha 1-adrenergic action is mediated by the phosphatidylinositol pathway of hormone action in many cells, we examined the hypothesis that alpha-adrenergic agonists stimulate phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis in cardiomyocytes and that this effect is sensitive to pertussis toxin. Addition of norepinephrine to cultured rat ventricular myocytes prelabeled with myo-[2-3H]inositol resulted in rapid and significant accumulation of inositol phosphate (IP1) and inositol biphosphate. Norepinephrine-stimulated IP1 formation was not inhibited by propranolol, but was inhibited by alpha-adrenergic antagonists with an order of potency indicating alpha 1-adrenergic receptor subselectivity: prazosin (alpha 1; 3 nM) greater than yohimbine (alpha 2; 10 microM). The effect of norepinephrine to enhance IP1 formation was markedly attenuated in cells pretreated with pertussis toxin. Pertussis toxin also induced the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD to a 41,000-dalton membrane protein in these cells. The concentration of pertussis toxin resulting in maximal inhibition of norepinephrine-stimulated IP1 formation correlated well with the concentration of pertussis toxin necessary to completely ADP-ribosylate a 41,000-dalton membrane protein (1 ng/ml). The range over which pertussis toxin inhibited norepinephrine-dependent IP1 formation and ADP-ribosylated the 41,000-dalton substrate was virtually identical. These observations establish a role for a 41,000-dalton pertussis toxin substrate in coupling the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor to phosphoinositol hydrolysis in myocardial cells.

Activation of muscarinic cholinergic receptors of 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells attenuates cyclic AMP accumulation. This effect results from an activation of phosphodiesterase with no direct inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. In spite of this lack of coupling of muscarinic receptors to adenylate cyclase, guanine nucleotides reduce the apparent binding affinity of the agonist carbachol in a washed membrane preparation of 1321N1 cells. The order of potency for this effect is guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) greater than 5'-guanylyl-imidodiphosphate = GTP = GDP; ATP has no effect. The occurrence of a Mr = 41,000 protein labeled in the presence of [32P]NAD and pertussis toxin as well as the occurrence of guanine nucleotide-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity indicate that the functional inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory component of adenylate cyclase (Ni) is present in 1321N1 cells. Pertussis toxin pretreatment of NG108-15 neuroblastoma X glioma cells, which express muscarinic receptors that link through Ni to inhibit adenylate cyclase, blocked the GTP-sensitive, high affinity binding of carbachol. In contrast, pretreatment of 1321N1 cells with a concentration of pertussis toxin that blocked [32P]ADP ribosylation of the Mr = 41,000 substrate and GTP-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity had no effect on GTP-sensitive high affinity binding of carbachol. These results suggest that muscarinic cholinergic receptors of 1321N1 cells couple to a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein that is distinct from Ni.

Both cholera toxin and pertussis toxin catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of purified bovine brain tubulin. The effect of cholera toxin was evident in the absence or presence of nucleotides. In contrast, pertussis toxin required adenine nucleotides for its ADP-ribosylating activity. ATP, ATP gamma S, App(NH)p, deoxy-ATP, and ADP all supported pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylations in the absence or presence of EDTA, suggesting that nucleotide hydrolysis was not involved. Adenine nucleotides also promoted pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of heat-treated bovine serum albumin. This result suggests that adenine nucleotides directly affect pertussis toxin. ATP stimulation of pertussis toxin-catalyzed hydrolysis of NAD to ADP-ribose supports this hypothesis.

As noted previously, in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells, carbamylcholine, a muscarinic cholinergic agonist, increased cGMP over 15-fold and decreased basal and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-stimulated cAMP content. In contrast to the stimulatory effects of PGE1 on cAMP, which were immediate, the carbamylcholine-induced decrease in basal and PGE1-stimulated cAMP exhibited a delay. The delay in carbamylcholine inhibition was independent of the extent of adenylate cyclase activation. Although basal cAMP content was suppressed within 30 sec after addition of carbamylcholine, inhibition was not maximal for at least 2 min following agonist addition; the delay was similar in cells exposed to PGE1 for 10 min prior to carbamylcholine but could be eliminated by incubation of the cells with muscarinic cholinergic agonist for 5 min prior to addition of prostaglandin. N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells possess a 41,000-Da membrane protein believed to be a component of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein of adenylate cyclase that is ADP ribosylated by pertussis toxin. Incubation of the cells with pertussis toxin prior to the addition of carbamylcholine reduced the maximal extent of inhibition of cAMP content and prevented the [32P]ADP-ribosylation of a 41,000-Da protein by toxin and [32P]NAD in membrane preparations from these cells. Incubation of cells with pertussis toxin, however, did not significantly alter the dose-response curve for carbamylcholine effects on cGMP. Even high concentrations of carbamylcholine, effective in stimulating cGMP, had minimal effects on cAMP content in toxin-treated cells; thus, ADP-ribosylation of Gi converts the adenylate cyclase but not the guanylate cyclase system to an agonist-insensitive state.

Using the membranes treated with Triton X-100, we studied the interaction between gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)B receptors and the GTP-binding proteins which are the substrates for ADP-ribosylation by the islet-activating protein (IAP), pertussis toxin. The addition of guanine nucleotides to the membranes markedly decreased the binding of GABA to GABAB receptors. Preincubation of the membranes with IAP plus NAD caused ADP-ribosylation of the 41,000- and 39,000-Da proteins selectively and decreased GABA binding to GABAB receptors in a time- and dose-dependent manner. This decrease of binding appeared to be due to the reduction of receptor affinity for agonist. The GTP-binding proteins which are ADP-ribosylated by IAP were purified from the membrane fraction of bovine cerebral cortex. The addition of the purified GTP-binding proteins to IAP-treated membranes restored the high affinity binding of GABA to GABAB receptor. The two GTP-binding proteins which were resolved by octyl-Sepharose column chromatography showed similar efficacy in restoring GABA binding. Thus, GABAB receptors are coupled to GTP-binding proteins, IAP-specific substrates, in the brain membranes.

Incubation of particulate fractions of swine granulosa cells or luteal minces with purified pertussis toxin (islet-activating protein) and [32P]-NAD catalyzed the (32P)-ADP ribosylation of a 41,000 dalton membrane protein. ADP-ribosylation was markedly reduced by prior incubation of intact cells with toxin. The functional relevance of this presumptive inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein in pig granulosa cells was indicated by the ability of prior treatment with pertussis toxin to increase cyclic AMP generation and progesterone production significantly in response to follicle stimulating hormone. Prior cellular intoxication also enhanced cyclic AMP production stimulated by luteinizing hormone and choleratoxin, but not basally or after forskolin. These results demonstrate the presence of an inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein in both the follicular (granulosa cell) and luteal compartments of the mammalian ovary, and indicate its functional relevance in cyclic AMP generation and progesterone secretion.

Islet-activating protein (IAP, a Bordetella pertussis toxin) was employed to test the hypothesis that the inhibitory GTP-binding regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase (Ni) mediates GTP effects on the binding of Ca2+-mobilizing hormones to liver plasma membranes and is involved in calcium mobilization stimulated by these agonists. IAP added to normal liver plasma membranes catalyzed the incorporation of radioactivity from [32P]NAD into a 41,000-Da peptide (presumably the alpha-subunit of Ni). However, no such incorporation was observed in liver membranes prepared from rats 24 hr after intraperitoneal injection of IAP. Angiotensin II attenuated glucagon-stimulated increases in cAMP in hepatocytes prepared from control but not IAP-treated rats. In contrast, following IAP treatment, no changes were observed in the ability of glucagon, vasopressin, angiotensin II, or epinephrine to activate phosphorylase; nor did this treatment alter [3H]vasopressin binding or epinephrine displacement of [3H]prazosin binding. However, IAP treatment decreased [3H]angiotensin II binding affinity when studies were performed in the absence but not the presence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate (GppNHp). This shift was small and represented only 5-8% of the shift in apparent Kd elicited by GppNHp in untreated membranes. In vitro studies with IAP confirmed the results of the radioligand binding studies using in vivo IAP treatment. The effects of NaCl on [3H]angiotensin II binding were also tested but were not typical of other receptors which couple to Ni. The data suggest that, although a small population of hepatic angiotensin II receptors couple to Ni and attenuate glucagon-stimulated increases in cAMP, vasopressin, alpha 1-adrenergic, and the majority of angiotensin II receptors do not interact significantly with Ni. Thus, although there is evidence that agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization requires a GTP-binding regulatory protein, this protein does not appear to be Ni in rat liver.

The role of Ni in mediation of alpha adrenergic stimulated respiration and breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-P2 in brown adipocytes was examined using pertussis toxin. Phenylephrine stimulation of respiration and breakdown of PtdIns-4,5-P2 was still present in adipocytes harvested from hamsters treated with pertussis toxin although toxin modification of Ni appeared complete as judged from the absence of incorporation of [32P] from [32P]-NAD into a 41 KD protein in membranes. These data suggest that alpha-1 receptors on brown adipocytes are not coupled to inositide hydrolysis through Ni.

Treatment of ROS 17/2.8 cells with dexamethasone (dex) increases (-)isoproterenol (ISO)-, PTH-, cholera toxin-, guanine nucleotide-, NaF-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. Enhanced hormone stimulation was first apparent 12 h after dex addition. (-)-[3H]Dihydroalprenolol binding, displaceable by ISO, increased up to 2-fold in dex-treated cells. This effect depended on protein synthesis and closely paralleled the extent and time course of the increase in adenylate cyclase stimulation. In dex-treated cells there was also an increase in the maximum velocity of guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate-stimulated adenylate cyclase, a decrease in the lag time for guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate enzyme activation in the presence of ISO from 3 to 1 min, increased stimulation of adenylate cyclase by cholera toxin, and increased labeling of 47,000 and 42,000 mol wt proteins by [32P]NAD in the presence of cholera toxin. [32P]NAD ribosylation in the presence of pertussis toxin resulted in the labeling of 40,000 mol wt protein, which was also increased by 20-50% in dex-treated cells. However, pertussis toxin treatment did not augment or reduce the effect on hormone stimulation, although it increased the cAMP response to PTH and (-)ISO. These findings suggest that dex increases (-)ISO stimulation of adenylate cyclase in ROS 17/2.8 cells by jointly increasing the number of hormone receptors and the abundance of Gs, the guanine nucleotide binding regulatory protein.

In reviewing our own and other work, it is clear that pertussis toxin treatment of neutrophils causes a time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of granule enzyme secretion induced by formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe), C5a, leukotriene (LT) B4 and platelet-activating factor (PAF). Chemotaxis, O2- generation, aggregation, and arachidonic acid production induced by fMet-Leu-Phe are also inhibited by pertussis toxin. Granule enzyme release caused by A23187 or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate is not inhibited. The inhibition of neutrophil function correlates closely with the NAD-ribosylation of a 41,000-dalton protein in the neutrophil plasma membrane, presumably the GTP-binding regulatory protein Ni. Pertussis toxin treatment prevents or obtunds the increased influx of Ca2+ induced by fMet-Leu-phe and LTB4, but not that caused by stimulation of neutrophils with PAF. Pertussis toxin prevents the receptor-induced breakdown of polyphosphoinositides in intact neutrophils and isolated membrane and prevents or decreases the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and 1,2-diacylglycerol. The hypothesis advanced by us and others is that pertussis toxin interacts with a GTP-binding regulatory protein identical or similar to Ni, which couples receptor-chemotactic factor interaction to phospholipase C activation. Inhibition of the activation prevents the production of IP3 and the resulting release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and of 1,2-diacylglycerol and thus, the activation of protein kinase C. The lack of these two mediators is the immediate cause of the depression of neutrophil activation resulting from pertussis toxin. Some of the limitations and uncertainties of our present knowledge with respect to this hypothesis are discussed.
