The elimination of phenytoin from blood was significantly decreased in rats pretreated 24 hr previously with Bordetella pertussis vaccine or the synthetic polynucleotide poly(rI.rC.). Phenytoin half-life was increased about 4-fold by both agents. In microsomes prepared from rats pretreated with B. pertussis vaccine or poly(rI.rC) the hydroxylation of phenytoin in vitro was decreased by 36 nad 53%, respectively. The addition of these agents to normal microsomal suspensions had no effect on phenytoin hydroxylation, demonstrating that the decrease in biotransformation was not due to direct enzyme inhibition. The decrease in phenytoin hydroxylation and elimination rate resulted from depressed levels of cytochrome P-450 in the hepatic endoplasmic reticulum of rats treated with B. pertussis vaccine or poly(rI.rC).

Administration of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine adsorbed (DTP vaccine) or endotoxin (LPS) resulted in marked alterations in hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes in endotoxin-responsive (R) and non-endotoxin-responsive (NR) mice. A single human dose (0.5 ml) of DTP vaccine increased hexobarbital-induced sleep times to 1.6- to 1.8-fold above those of controls in both strains of mice. This effect persisted for 7 days. In contrast, Bordetella pertussis LPS-treated mice showed an increase at 1 day (3.0-fold for R mice and 1.5-fold for NR mice), which returned to control levels by day 7. Furthermore, cytochrome P-450 levels were decreased 30 to 40% 24 h after DTP vaccine administration in both R and NR mice, while after LPS administration they were decreased 30% in R mice and less than 10% in NR mice. Both spleen and liver weights of R and NR mice were increased 7 to 14 days following DTP vaccine administration. However, LPS treatment had no apparent effect on liver weights, and spleen weights of R mice were elevated from days 3 to 7. Histopathologic tissue examination showed random, multifocal inflammation with hepatocyte necrosis after DTP vaccine administration to both R and NR mice and an absence of lesions in LPS-treated mice. Premixing LPS with polymyxin eliminated the increased sleep times, but premixing DTP vaccine with polymyxin did not affect the increased sleep times. Levels of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-6 in plasma of R mice were markedly increased after DTP and LPS treatment, while NR mice had reduced increases. These results suggest that LPS contributes to the alterations in R and NR mice seen within the first 24 h of vaccine administration but that it is not likely to contribute to the effects observed at later time points.

Using a perfused rat hindleg system, release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) from endothelial cells could be induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF), bradykinin, substance P, thrombin, carbachol and A23187, while this release was inhibited by mepacrine and by nor-dihydroguaiaretic acid. The PAF-induced release of t-PA was inhibited by the cytochrome P-450 mono-oxygenase inhibitors, metyrapone, ketoconazole and SKF 525A and by eicosatetraynoic acid but not by indomethacin or BW 755C, suggesting the involvement of epoxygenase products. The PAF-induced release of von Willebrand factor (vWF) was also similarly inhibited by the cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase inhibitor, ketoconazole. Phorbol ester and phospholipase C induced the release of both t-PA and vWF, while phospholipase A2 did not. The release induced by PAF and bradykinin was not influenced by pretreatment with pertussis toxin.

In rat liver cytosol, rapid ADP-ribosylation of a 52 kDa protein by endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase(s) was observed. This ADP-ribosylation was stimulated dose-dependently by 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-EET), one of the metabolites of arachidonic acid by NADPH-dependent cytochrome P-450 mono-oxygenase. This stimulatory effect required the presence of GTP or its non-hydrolysable analogues, guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate or guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate. Of four regioisomeric EETs, 14,15-EET was the most potent. No stimulatory effect was observed with addition of 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid, a stable metabolite of 14,15-EET. The 52 kDa protein was not ADP-ribosylated by cholera toxin A subunit and pertussis toxin, and was not recognized by anti-Gs alpha and anti-Gi alpha antibodies. However, the 52 kDa protein could be photoaffinity-labelled with 8-azidoguanosine 5'-[alpha-32P]triphosphate. These results suggest that the 52 kDa protein is neither Gs nor Gi, though it may have a GTP-binding site. These results contribute to the understanding of the role of mono-oxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid in intracellular signal transduction.

Administration of whole-cell diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine adsorbed (DTP vaccine) caused marked depression in the expression of mRNA for isozymes of cytochrome P-450 in the livers of endotoxin-responsive and nonresponsive mice. The levels of expression of mRNA for a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-inducible (CYP1A2) and an ethanol-inducible (CYP2E1) form of P-450 were reduced by 70% to 80% 8 to 12 hr after vaccination or Bordetella pertussis endotoxin administration. These effects are preceded by marked increases (threefold to sixfold) in mRNA expression for interleukin-6, interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor in both strains of mice, with maximal increases 1 to 2 hr after injection. This is the first demonstration that levels of cytokine mRNA are altered in the liver in response to DTP vaccine administration. The finding of increased cytokine mRNA in the livers of mice injected with vaccine supports a role for cytokines as mediators of the decreased levels of cytochrome P-450. In addition, inducible nitric oxide synthase mRNA expression is also increased after vaccine administration, with a peak at 4 hr. The temporal relationship of the increased cytokine mRNA expression, increased nitric oxide synthase and decreased expression of P-450 mRNAs suggests a mechanism by which cytokines mediate the induction of nitric oxide synthase, which increases nitric oxide and decreases the activities of some cytochromes P-450.

N-Formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) is able to accelerate Ca2+ entry into differentiated HL60 cells by a rather indirect mechanism consisting of the opening of a plasma membrane pathway activated by the emptying of the intracellular Ca2+ stores caused by the agonist. This Ca2+ pathway can also be fully activated by Ca2+ store depletion with thapsigargin. We show here that, in addition to this store-operated Ca2+ entry pathway (SOCP), fMLP is able to activate another receptor-operated Ca2+ pathway in thapsigargin-treated HL60 cells differentiated for 24 h with dimethyl sulfoxide. Activation by fMLP was produced even in cells with fully empty Ca2+ stores. It started 30 s after fMLP addition, was maximal after 2 min and then disappeared within 5 min. This pathway was similar to SOCP in that it allowed passage of Mn2+ and Ba2+ and was antagonized by Ni2+ and by cytochrome P-450 inhibitors. fMLP is also able to inhibit SOCP by a mechanism involving protein phosphorylation. Both the fMLP-induced activation of Ca2+ entry and the inhibition of SOCP were prevented by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. However, the first appeared earlier than the last along differentiation of HL60 cells. This suggests that the inhibition of SOCP requires not only the development of fMLP receptors but also an additional component placed distally to the G protein in the transduction mechanism.

We have previously shown that parathyroid hormone (PTH)-(1-34) or its analogue PTH-(3-34) inhibits proximal tubule (PT) Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase) activity independently of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate generation. The present study used PT suspensions to investigate the signaling pathway responsible for this hormonal action. PTH-(1-34) and PTH-(3-34) significantly increased the release of arachidonic acid (AA) compared with control tubules, suggesting activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2). AA, 10(-6) M, mimicked the inhibition of the pump by 10(-8) M PTH-(3-34), and together were not additive. Eicosatetraynoic acid, 3 microM, a general inhibitor of AA metabolism, blocked the PTH action. Indomethacin, 10 microM, an inhibitor of AA-dependent cyclooxygenase, did not prevent the PTH action, but 2 microM 7-ethoxyresorufin, a cytochrome P-450 inhibitor, prevented the PTH effect. 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), the main product of P-450 metabolism in PT, inhibited Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity to the same extent as 10(-8) M PTH-(3-34), was not additive with PTH, and was maximally inhibitory at 10(-7) M. To further investigate the signaling pathway responsible for PTH-activated PLA2, we tested the effect of PTH on cytoplasmic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). PTH-(1-34), 10(-7) M, did not affect [Ca2+]i, although 10(-8) M angiotensin II promoted a Ca2+ transient. Treatment of PT with pertussis toxin (PTX) did not prevent the PTH action.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A 24-h pretreatment of mice with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and whole-cell pertussis vaccines depressed liver cytochrome P-450 and therefore prolonged hexobarbital-induced sleeping time in mice. The depression of liver drug metabolism by a cellular vaccine containing a mutated pertussis toxin was less marked than that induced by the wild-type vaccines, indicating that the mutated vaccine might have lower toxicity in this regard. The wild-type vaccines decreased microsomal P-450 levels by 50%, while the mutated whole-cell vaccine had a less marked effect (a decrease of 30%), paralleling the results obtained in sleeping time experiments. Furthermore, an acellular mutated vaccine did not affect liver drug metabolism, indicating a role of the whole bacterial cell in this side effect. All the cellular vaccines studied induced high serum interleukin-6 levels; on the other hand, the acellular mutated vaccine induced very low interleukin-6 levels, indicating that the whole bacterial cell is also important for interleukin-6 induction. All vaccines studied were very poor tumor necrosis factor inducers.

Low concentrations of angiotensin II (Ang II) increase, whereas high concentrations inhibit the apical Na/H antiporter activity in the proximal tubule, but the respective roles of the different signaling pathways in mediating these effects remains unsettled. We studied the effects of both low and high doses of Ang II in the presence of selective signaling pathway inhibitors, on the apical Na/H antiport activity of rat proximal tubule. Experiments were carried out in intact cells of freshly prepared tubule fragments obtained from the outer third of cortex, that is, devoid of basolateral Na/H antiport activity in the absence of bicarbonate transport and H(+)-ATPase activity. In tubules acid-loaded by an NH4Cl prepulse, Na/H antiport activity was assessed by the initial rate of intracellular pH recovery (dpHi/dt), measured with BCECF. When tubules were preincubated with low dose Ang II (10(-11) M for 3 min), dpHi/dt increased by 25 +/- 8%, whereas incubation with high dose Ang II (10(-7) M for 3 min) decreased dpHi/dt by 30 +/- 4%, compared to control (P < 0.01 in both cases). Both effects were abolished in the presence of 2.10(-3) M amiloride. Low dose Ang II-induced increase in dpHi/dt was not affected by preincubation with a specific PKA inhibitor, Rp-CPT-cAMP 10(-4) M, and was completely abolished by preincubation with PKC inhibitors, staurosporine 10(-7) M, sphingosine 5.10(-6) M, or calphostin 10(-6) M. In addition, pretreatment of rats with pertussis toxin led to a partial inhibition of the effect of low dose Ang II. The high dose-Ang II-induced decrease in dpHi/dt was not affected by pretreatment with a calcium-calmodulin kinase inhibitor W-7 10(-4) M. Conversely, pretreatment with the cytochrome P-450 inhibitor econazole 10(-5) M reversed the inhibitory effect of high dose Ang II to a stimulatory effect (24 +/- 8%, P < 0.01), quantitatively similar to the effect of low dose Ang II. In addition, arachidonate was found to exert an econazole-sensitive dose-dependent inhibitory effect on dpHi/dt, and 5,6-EET 10(-6) M, a cytochrome P-450 derived-arachidonic acid metabolite, induced a 38 +/- 9% inhibition, similar to that observed with high dose Ang II alone. There was no additive effect of 5,6-EET and high dose Ang II. Finally, pretreatment with two PLA2 inhibitors (BromoPhenacylBromide, 6.10(-6) M, and oleyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, 5.10(-6) M) reversed the inhibitory effect of high dose Ang II to a stimulatory effect (32 +/- 11% and 25 +/- 11%, respectively, P < 0.05 for both inhibitors). We conclude that, in intact rat proximal cells, low dose Ang II stimulates the apical Na/H antiport through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein-dependent PKC pathway, whereas high dose Ang II inhibits the Na/H antiport activity through the PLA2- and cytochrome P-450-dependent metabolites of arachidonate.

14(R),15(S)-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-EET), a cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase (epoxygenase) metabolite of arachidonic acid has been reported to induce adhesion of a monocyte cell line (U-937) to cultured endothelial cells. In this study, we identified a population of specific, high affinity binding sites for 14(R),15(S)-EET in U-937 cell surface with Kd of 13.84 +/- 2.58 nM and Bmax of 3.54 +/- 0.28 pmol/10(6) cells. The specific binding of [3H]-14,15-EET on U-937 cells is more effectively displaced by 14(R),15(S)-EET than the 14(S),15(R)-isomer thus indicating stereospecificity. The binding was sensitive to various protease treatments suggesting the binding site is protein in nature. 14,15-EET binding in U937 cells is attenuated by cholera toxin (CT) and dibutyryl cAMP. Mean binding site density (Bmax) decreased 31.61% and 34.8% by the pretreatment with cholera toxin (200 micrograms/ml) and dibutyryl cAMP (300 nM), respectively, without affecting the dissociation constant. Under similar conditions, pertussis toxin (20-200 ng/ml) was less effective as compared to CT and dibutyryl cAMP. The down regulation of 14,15-EET binding caused by dibutyryl cAMP in U-937 cell was reversed by a specific protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, H-89, but not by the PKC inhibitor K252a. Thus, the results suggest that the specific binding site of 14,15-EET in U-937 cells is associated with a receptor that could be down regulated through an increase in intracellular cAMP and activation of a PKA signal transduction mechanism. We propose that the signal transduction mechanism of 14,15-EET begins with the binding of the receptor, which leads to the increase of intracellular cAMP levels and the activation of PKA, and finally with the down regulation of 14,15-EET receptor binding.
