In enzymatically dispersed enriched rat parietal cells we studied the effect of pertussis toxin on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)- or somatostatin-induced inhibition of H(+)-production. Parietal cells were incubated in parallel in the absence (control cells) and presence of pertussis toxin (250 ng/ml; 4 h). [14C]Aminopyrine accumulation by both pertussis toxin-treated and control cells was used as an indirect measure of H(+)-production after stimulation with either histamine, forskolin or dibutyryl adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (dbcAMP) alone and in the presence of PGE2 (10(-9)-10(-7) M) or somatostatin (10(-9)-10(-6) M). PGE2 inhibited histamine- and forskolin-stimulated [14C]aminopyrine accumulation but failed to alter the response to dbcAMP. Somatostatin was less effective and less potent than PGE2 in inhibiting stimulation by histamine or forskolin and reduced the response to dbcAMP. Pertussis toxin completely reversed inhibition by both PGE2 and somatostatin on histamine- and forskolin-stimulated H(+)-production but failed to affect inhibition by somatostatin of the response to dbcAMP. After incubation of crude control cell membranes with [32P]NAD+, pertussis toxin catalysed the incorporation of [32P]adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose into a membrane protein of molecular weight of 41,000, the known molecular weight of the inhibitory subunit of adenylate cyclase (Gi alpha). Pertussis toxin treatment of parietal cells prior to the preparation of crude membranes almost completely prevented subsequent pertussis toxin-catalysed [32P]ADP ribosylation of the 41,000 molecular weight protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Acid secretion from isolated rabbit gastric parietal cells can be stimulated by gastric secretagogues, histamine (cyclic-AMP pathway) and carbachol (inositol phosphate pathway). Prostaglandins (PG) from E series are potent inhibitors of acid secretion. The intracellular mechanism of this inhibition was examined by using a stable PGE1-analogue, misoprostol. Aminopyrine (AP) accumulations due to histamine, IBMX and forskolin were dose-dependently inhibited by misoprostol, whereas a weak but significant biphasic effect on carbachol-induced AP accumulation was observed. The cyclic-AMP formation induced by histamine and IBMX were also inhibited by misoprostol in a non-competitive way. The potent effect of forskolin on cyclic-AMP levels was not modified by misoprostol in parietal cells, whereas it was potentiated in non-parietal cells. The inhibitory effect of misoprostol on AP accumulation was reduced by incubation of parietal cells with Bordetella pertussis toxin (IAP) but not with Cholera toxin (CT). Pretreatment of the cells with IAP did not alter cyclic-AMP levels of resting and histamine-stimulated parietal cells but abolished the inhibitory effect of misoprostol. Treatment with CT increased basal and histamine-stimulated cyclic-AMP levels and masked the inhibitory effect of misoprostol. The biphasic effect of misoprostol on carbachol-stimulated AP accumulation in parietal cells was confirmed on carbachol-stimulated phospholipase C activity and on [Ca2+]i stimulated by carbachol. These data confirm a direct and specific effect of the prostanoid on the Gi-subunit of the adenylate cyclase coupled to the histamine H2-receptor, and a biphasic effect on the phospholipase C pathway of the parietal cells.
