Carbachol (0.1-10 microM) augmented the isoproterenol-stimulated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) accumulation by approximately 50% in mouse parotid acini; at carbachol concentrations > 10 microM the stimulatory trend was reduced. These effects were time dependent. In the presence of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), the overall response to carbachol was an inhibition of the isoproterenol response. Pretreatment of acini with pertussis toxin failed to reverse this inhibition, suggesting that the effects of carbachol were not related to effects on the GTP binding protein, Gi. A-23187 mimicked the effects of carbachol on isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP accumulation in the presence and absence of IBMX. In the presence of IBMX, carbachol failed to inhibit isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP accumulation when calcium was absent from the extracellular media and depleted from intracellular stores by thapsigargin. By contrast, in the absence of IBMX, removal of calcium abolished augmentation of isoproterenol responses by low concentrations of carbachol, whereas at higher carbachol concentrations isoproterenol responses were significantly inhibited; the time to maximal cAMP accumulation was decreased approximately eightfold. The results show that the mechanisms underlying the effects of carbachol on cAMP metabolism involve both the enzymes that synthesize and degrade cAMP.

The phosphodiesterase inhibitors 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX; 100 microM) and papaverine (100 microM) increased peak L-type Ca current (ICa) more than fivefold in a way similar to isoproterenol, forskolin, or intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate in guinea pig ventricular myocytes studied with the whole cell voltage-clamp technique at 22-24 degrees C. IBMX and papaverine could also induce a chloride current. Both drugs caused an apparent increase of ICa inactivation as revealed by 1) a negative shift of the ICa inactivation curve between -40 and 0 mV and 2) a suppression of the relief from inactivation at potentials positive to 0 mV. In the presence of IBMX or papaverine, the amplitudes of both the rapidly and slowly inactivating components of ICa were increased; the effect on the fast component was more pronounced. The drugs did not accelerate the inactivation time course of either component. Carbachol (CCh; 100 microM) reversed the increase in ICa produced by IBMX or papaverine. However, ICa could not be restored to its original magnitude on washout of CCh in the presence of phosphodiesterase inhibitors. In pertussis toxin-treated cells or in the presence of Ly-83583 (1-100 microM), IBMX retained its effect but CCh was unable to reduce ICa. Dialysis with guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP; 0.1-100 microM) or 8-bromoguanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (30 microM) suppressed the increase of ICa by IBMX; the inhibition by cGMP was additive with that produced by CCh. We suggest that the major part of IBMX and papaverine effect is mediated by phosphodiesterase inhibition and involves an increase in intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate levels. CCh reversal of phosphodiesterase inhibitor action probably involves an elevation of cGMP levels and activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase.

1. Aluminium fluoride (AlF), pertussis toxin (PTX) and cholera toxin (ChTX) have been used to examine the involvement of G-proteins during muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) stimulation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in fragments of longitudinal smooth muscle from the small intestine of the guinea-pig. 2. Carbachol (CCh) induced time- and concentration-dependent increases in [3H]-inositol monophosphates, [3H]-inositol (1,4) bisphosphate, [3H]-inositol (1,3,4) trisphosphate, [3H]-inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate ([3H]-Ins (1,4,5)P3) and [3H]-inositol tetrakisphosphates measured by h.p.l.c. These increases were inhibited > 95% in the presence of the muscarinic AChR antagonist atropine (0.5 microM). 3. AlF transiently increased the basal levels of [3H]-Ins (1,4,5)P3 but increases in the levels of the other [3H]-inositol phosphates occurred more slowly. CCh-induced increases in the levels of all the [3H]-inositol phosphates were strongly inhibited in the presence of AlF. 4. PTX had no effect on basal levels of any of the [3H]-inositol phosphates but reduced the effects of CCh on these; ChTX had no effects on either basal or CCh-stimulated levels. 5. It was concluded that muscarinic AChR-stimulated increases in the levels of [3H]-inositol phosphates occur via both a PTX-sensitive G-protein and a PTX-insensitive mechanism. The actions of AlF may suggest the involvement of an inhibitory G-protein in the regulation of muscarinic AChR-stimulated inositol phospholipid turnover.

In the present studies, the pharmacology and regulation of the functional muscarinic receptors on HSDM1C1 cells were probed using phosphoinositide (PI) turnover assays. In addition, the receptor binding of the putative M3-selective radioligand, [3H]4-DAMP, to cell homogenates was characterized. Carbachol (EC50 = 9 microM), (+)muscarine (EC50 = 4.5 microM) and cis-dioxolane (EC50 = 0.72 microM) were full agonists which stimulated PI turnover by 13.3 +/- 1.0 fold above basal values. The potencies of numerous agonists in this assay system were relatively similar to their affinities in receptor binding assays. Exposure of HSDM1C1 cells to 10 nM-10 microM muscarine during the last 24h of [3H]myo-inositol-labeling resulted in a concentration-dependent reduction in the cis-dioxolane affinity and maximal PI response induced by subsequent treatment with cis-dioxolane. Pertussis toxin (5-2000 ng/ml) caused a partial reduction in the cis-dioxolane-induced PI turnover. Likewise, exposure of the HSDM1C1 cells to an active phorbol ester (TPA) resulted in a partial inhibition of the cis-dioxolane-induced (100 microM) PI turnover. The half-maximal effect of TPA was produced at 1.8 +/- 0.3 nM. [3H]4-DAMP binding to cell homogenates was of high affinity (Kd = 0.19 +/- 0.04 nM) and moderate capacity (Bmax = 201 +/- 22 fmol/mg protein). The pharmacological specificity (4-DAMP > p-FHHSiD > dicyclomine > pirenzepine > methoctramine > AFDX-116 > gallamine) resembled that for [3H]NMS binding and correlated well with that observed for inhibition of PI turnover. These studies further support the identification of M3 receptors on HSDM1C1 cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppG)-stimulated phospholipase C (PLC) activity in bovine brain coated vesicles is inhibited by glutamate agonists. In the present study we show that quisqualic acid (QA), (+/-)-trans-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate (trans-ACPD), glutamic acid and ibotenic acid inhibited p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC by 44, 41, 36 and 25% respectively. Carbachol also produced an inhibition of p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC by 45%. The inhibition caused by trans-ACPD and QA was dose-dependent. DL-2-Amino-3-phosphonopropionic acid and (RS)-alpha-methyl-4-carboxyphenylglycine, specific antagonists of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), abolished these inhibitory effects. trans-ACPD inhibition of p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC was also observed in the presence of ionotropic glutamate receptor antagonists. When carbachol and QA or trans-ACPD were combined, additive inhibitory effects were observed. Preincubation of bovine brain coated vesicles with pertussis toxin abolished the inhibitory effects of mGluR analogues and carbachol on p[NH]ppG-stimulated PLC activity. The presence of Gs alpha and pertussis toxin substrates, Gi alpha and Go alpha subunits as well as PLC beta 1 in bovine brain coated vesicles has been confirmed by immunoblot. These results support the coupling of mGluRs to a PLC in an inhibitory manner through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein in bovine brain coated vesicles.

We investigated the mechanism of Cl- secretion by fluoroaluminate(AlF4-) and sodium orthovanadate(vanadate) using the human colonic T84 cell line. T84 cell monolayers grown on collagen-coated filters were mounted in Ussing chambers to measure short circuit current(ISC). Serosal addition of AlF4- or vanadate to T84 monolayers produced a sustained increase in ISC. Removal of Ca2+ from the serosal bathing solution partially inhibited AlF4-(-)and vanadate-induced ISC, and readministration of Ca2+ restored AlF4-(-)and vanadate-induced ISC. Carbachol application in the presence of forskolin, AlF4- or vanadate induced a synergistic increase of ISC. Forskolin and vanadate significantly increased cellular cAMP level, while carbachol and AlF4- did not. Carbachol, AlF4- and vanadate significantly increased [Ca2+]i. After Na+ in mucosal bathing solution was replaced with K+, and the mucosal membrane of T84 cell was permeabilized with amphotericin B, AlF4-, vanadate, and carbachol increased K+ conductance, but forskolin did not. After sodium chloride in serosal bathing solution was replaced with sodium gluconate and the serosal membrane was permeabilized with nystatin, forskolin, AlF4-, and vanadate increased Cl- conductance, but carbachol did not. AlF4-(-)induced ISC was remarkably inhibited by the pretreatment of pertussis toxin(2 micrograms/ml) for 2 hours. These results indicate that AlF4- and vanadate can increase Cl- secretion via simultaneous stimulation of Cl- channel and K+ channel in T84 cells. However, the AlF4- action is mostly attributed to stimulation of pertussis toxin-sensitive G-proteins, whereas the vanadate action mostly results from G protein-independent mechanisms.

Supersensitivity of adenylyl cyclase after exposure to inhibitory agonists is a general means of cellular adaptation. We hypothesized that such "crosstalk" between muscarinic cholinergic agonists, beta 1-adrenoceptors, and adenylyl cyclase may be an important mechanism of cardiac adaptation to interventions that enhance vagal activity. We used primary cultures of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes and measured beta-adrenoceptors by radioligand binding and adenylyl cyclase activity by a single column method. Carbachol induced a time- and dose-dependent reversible decrease in cell surface beta 1-adrenoceptors. The peak effect occurred after 20 h of exposure to 100 microM carbachol which caused a decrease in the maximum number of binding sites for the beta-adrenoceptor antagonist 3H-CGP-12177 from 42.3 +/- 3.4 to 33.0 +/- 2.6 fmol/mg protein (n = 12, P < 0.03) without a change in antagonist affinity. Loss of cell surface receptors was prevented by atropine and by the protein kinase C inhibitor H7. The decrease in cell surface receptors was not accompanied by receptor internalization as assessed by equilibrium binding experiments in a cytosolic fraction using 125I-iodocyanopindolol. In contrast to the well-known acute inhibitory effects of carbachol on adenylyl cyclase activation, prolonged carbachol exposure preserved (-)-isoprenaline-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity and enhanced postreceptor stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity. Carbachol did not further enhance adenylyl cyclase activity after pretreatment with pertussis toxin. The protein kinase C inhibitor chelerythrine prevented the carbachol induced enhancement of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity. We conclude that prolonged incubation with carbachol in rat neonatal ventricular myocytes causes a reduction in cell surface beta 1-Adrenoceptor density. beta 1-Adrenoceptor-mediated adenylyl cyclase activity is preserved and postreceptor-mediated adenylyl cyclase activity is augmented. Our data suggest that carbachol-stimulated protein kinase C activity may play a key role in the prolonged muscarinic regulation of adenylyl cyclase activity.

Carbachol (10(-8)-10(-3) M) produced two distinct biochemical responses in the guinea pig gallbladder smooth muscle: simulation of phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis and inhibition of forskolin-mediated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) formation in a dose-dependent manner. The mean effective dose (ED50) concentration (1.6 x 10(-5) M) of carbachol-mediated stimulation of PI hydrolysis was 145 times greater than the ED50 concentration (1.1 x 10(-7) M) of carbachol mediated inhibition of cAMP formation. The inhibitory effect of carbachol on cAMP formation was antagonized by the pretreatment of pertussis toxin. To determine whether these two biochemical responses were mediated by the same or different subtypes of muscarinic receptors, the relative potencies of muscarinic receptor antagonists were calculated by Schild analysis. The M3 muscarinic antagonist 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine methiodide (4-DAMP) exhibited inhibitory constant (Ki) values at 0.3 and 1.2 nM in antagonizing the stimulation of PI hydrolysis and the inhibition of cAMP formation, respectively. The corresponding Ki values for pirenzepine, a muscarinic M1 antagonist, were 11 and 130 nM. The corresponding Ki values for AF-DX 116, a muscarinic M2 antagonist, were 34 and 450 nM. Thus 4-DAMP was 37x and 108x more potent than pirenzepine in antagonizing the stimulation of PI hydrolysis and the inhibition of cAMP formation, respectively. In addition, compared with AF-DX 116, 4-DAMP was 113x and 375x more potent in reducing stimulation of PI hydrolysis and inhibition of cAMP formation. Cholecystokinin (CCK) octapeptide (10(-10)-(10-6) M) caused a significant increase of PI hydrolysis but had no inhibitory effects on cAMP formation evoked by forskolin (10(-5) M).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Transfection of a human dopamine D3 receptor cDNA in a neuroblastoma-glioma hybrid cell line (NG 108-15) provided clonal cell lines stably expressing up to 600 fmol per mg protein of [125I]iodosulpiride binding sites. Dopamine and several agonists distinguished two receptor-affinity states in membranes. In the case of dopamine, the high-affinity state (Ki = 0.9 nM, 30% of total binding) was completely converted into a low-affinity state (Ki = 57 nM) in the presence of 10 microM guanosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate). In addition to these two sites, a site with a very low affinity for dopamine was evidenced in whole cells. The dopamine D3 receptor mediated two responses: c-fos activation, as measured by the appearance of Fos-like immunoreactivity, and increased mitogenesis, as measured by incorporation of [3H]thymidine. The Fos-like immunoreactivity appeared within 30 min, lasted 2 h and was blocked by the partially selective dopamine D3 receptor compound (+)-UH 232 (cis-(+)-5-methoxy-1-methyl-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin). The mitogenic effect, which occurred after a lag time (over 2 h stimulation), was produced with subnanomolar potency and full intrinsic activity by several compounds previously identified as dopamine D2 receptor agonists, e.g. quinpirole, (+)-7-OH-DPAT ((+)-7-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) and RU 24926 (N-n-propyl-di-beta(3-hydroxyphenyl)-ethylamine), and was reversibly blocked by (+)-UH 232 (Ki = 9 nM). Talipexole (B-HT 920, 5-allyl-2-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-thiazolo[4,5-d]azepin) was identified as a partial agonist at the dopamine D3 receptor. Dopamine D3 receptor-mediated mitogenesis was potentiated by a phorbol ester and was abolished by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. A mitogenic effect of same amplitude was elicited by bradykinin or carbachol, both acting through constitutive receptors. Bradykinin markedly activated inositol phosphate turnover, and had no effect on forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation. Carbachol inhibited forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation and had no effect on inositol-phosphate turnover. Quinpirole had no effect on any of these second messenger pathways. Thus, in transfected NG 108-15 cells, the dopamine D3 receptor is coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein and mediates two possibly unrelated biological effects, through initial biochemical events that remain to be identified.

1. Rat cultured ventromedial hypothalamic (VMH) neurones obtained from embryonic hypothalamus were used to study the muscarinic (carbachol) modulation of voltage-gated K+ currents with the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. 2. Carbachol produced a potent and concentration-dependent (100 fM to 100 microM) decrease of the outward delayed rectifier K+ current (IK) with an IC50 of 44 pM and a Hill coefficient of 0.4. The carbachol-induced depression of IK was reduced by pirenzepine (1-10 microM) and atropine (1 microM). Carbachol had no effect on the transient outward K+ current (IA). 3. Intracellular dialysis with guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiophosphate) (GDP-beta-S, 500 microM) significantly diminished the carbachol-induced depression of IK, suggesting GTP-binding protein (G-protein) involvement. Pre-incubation of VMH neurones with pertussis toxin (200-400 ng ml-1) or cholera toxin (1 microgram ml-1) for 24-48 h had no effect on the carbachol-induced depression of IK. This suggested that the G alpha o, G alpha i, and G alpha s G-protein alpha-subunits were not involved in mediating the carbachol-induced depression of IK in VMH neurones. 4. Treatment (24-48 h) of VMH neurones with antisense phosphothio-oligodeoxynucleotides to the G alpha 11 G-protein subunit (10 microM) significantly diminished the carbachol-induced depression of IK. Treatment with 10 microM of either G alpha 11 sense or antisense to G alpha q had no effect. 5. These results demonstrate a novel and potent muscarinic depression of IK in VMN neurones, and that this depression is specifically mediated by the G alpha 11 G-protein subunit.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
