Phosphoinositide hydrolysis in platelets stimulated by thrombin is thought to be regulated by a pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein) referred to as Gp. The present studies examine the role of Gp in platelet responses to the thromboxane A2 analogue U46619 and in the pathway by which the phosphoinositide hydrolysis product inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) causes secretion. In permeabilized platelets, U46619 caused phosphatidic acid formation and secretion, which were abolished by the G protein inhibitor, guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiophosphate) (GDP beta S). Unlike thrombin, however, U46619-induced phosphoinositide hydrolysis was unaffected by pertussis toxin, and U46619 was unable to inhibit the [32P]ADP ribosylation of the 42-kD pertussis toxin substrate in platelets. IP3-induced secretion, which is known to depend upon intracellular Ca release and subsequent arachidonic acid metabolism, was also inhibited by GDP beta S, as was Ca-induced secretion. These observations suggest that platelet thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptors are coupled to a toxin-resistant form of Gp distinct from the one that is coupled to thrombin receptors, and that TxA2-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis may serve as a feedback mechanism by which stimuli for arachidonic acid release, such as IP3 and Ca, amplify responses to agonists.

Stimulation of supraspinal alpha 2-adrenergic receptors by intraventricular infusion of the alpha 2-adrenergic agonist ST-91 depresses a simple vertebrate behavior, the acoustic startle response. Intraventricular pretreatment with pertussis toxin, an agent known to inactivate the inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gi) which can inhibit adenylate cyclase, completely prevented the depressant behavioral effect of ST-91. In contrast, pertussis toxin did not alter the depressant effect of intraventricular infusion of the 5-HT 1B agonist 1-m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP). Intraventricular infusion of the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) analog 8-bromo-cAMP also reversed the depressant effect of ST-91 without altering the effect of mCPP. These data suggest that inhibition of adenylate cyclase may be involved in the effect of activation of central alpha 2-adrenergic receptors.

Dopaminergic inhibition of prolactin release from the anterior pituitary may be mediated through both the adenylate cyclase and Ca2+ mobilization/phosphoinositide pathways. The D2-dopamine receptor of the bovine anterior pituitary has been partially purified by affinity chromatography on CMOS-Sepharose (immobilized carboxymethyleneoximinospiperone). Reinsertion of these partially purified receptor preparations into phospholipid vesicles reconstituted guanine nucleotide-sensitive high affinity agonist binding, agonist-promoted GTPase and 35S-labeled guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) [( 35S]GTP gamma S) binding activity in these preparations. Pertussis toxin treatment of the purified receptor preparation abolished agonist-stimulated GTPase and guanine nucleotide-sensitive high affinity agonist binding. These observations suggest that the receptor copurifies with an endogenous, pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide binding protein (N). [32P]ADP-ribosylation of affinity-purified D2 receptor preparations by pertussis toxin revealed the presence of a substrate of Mr 39,000-40,000 on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Peptide maps generated using elastase of the [32P]ADP-ribosylated endogenous N protein, transducin, and Ni and No from brain revealed similarities but not identity between the endogenous pituitary N protein and brain Ni and No. Immunoblotting of the partially purified D2 receptor preparations showed an Mr 39,000-40,000 band with an Ni-specific antiserum raised against a synthetic peptide, and with RV3, an No-specific anti-serum, but not with CW6, an antiserum strongly reactive with brain Ni. Several lines of evidence indicate that endogenous pituitary N protein is functionally coupled to the D2 receptor. As measured by [35S]GTP gamma S binding, ratios of 0.2-0.6 mol N protein/mol receptor were observed. Association of N protein with the D2 receptor was increased by agonist pretreatment and decreased by guanine nucleotides. These results suggest that No and/or a form of Ni distinct from the Mr 41,000 pertussis toxin substrate (Ni) is the predominant N protein functionally coupled with the D2-dopamine receptor of anterior pituitary.

Addition of fibroblast growth factor to quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells stimulated the membrane transport of 2-deoxyglucose. Treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (islet-activating protein) inhibited fibroblast growth factor-stimulated hexose transport. 5'-Guanylyl imidodiphosphate (p[NH]ppG), a non hydrolyzable analogue of GTP, increased the number of hexose carriers in the plasma membrane of saponin-permeabilized cells. These results suggest that guanine nucleotide binding protein may be involved in the regulation of hexose transport system by fibroblast growth factor in Swiss 3T3 cells.

Purified porcine atrial muscarinic receptor (mAcChR) was reconstituted with purified porcine atrial inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gi) in a lipid mixture consisting of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, and cholesterol (1:1:0.1 w/w). 5'-Guanylyl imidodiphosphate (0.1 mM) had no effect on the binding of the muscarinic antagonist L-quinuclidinyl benzilate but converted high-affinity carbachol binding sites (Kd equal to 1 microM) in the reconstituted preparation to the low-affinity state (Kd equal to about 100 microM). Steady-state kinetic measurements of GTPase activity showed that the turnover number was increased from 0.19 min-1 in the presence of the muscarinic antagonist L-hyoscyamine to 2.11 min-1 for the agonist carbachol. The affinity of Gi for GDP was reduced by about 50-fold upon interaction with the carbachol-mAcChR complex, and the observed rate constant for GDP dissociation was increased by 38-fold from 0.12 to 4.5 min-1. Thus, the increase in steady-state GTPase activity observed for muscarinic agonists is largely, if not exclusively, due to the increase in GDP dissociation from Gi--probably the rate-limiting step in the steady-state mechanism. Carbachol-stimulated GTPase was sensitive to ADP-ribosylation of the reconstituted Gi by pertussis toxin, but the high-affinity agonist binding was uncoupled only when the reconstituted preparation was treated with pertussis toxin in the presence of GTP and the agonist acetylcholine. These results suggest that association with the mAcChR protects Gi from ADP-ribosylation by pertussis toxin.

The pertussis toxin substrate from RAW264 macrophage cell membranes was characterized by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and by immunoblots using antibodies directed against different guanine nucleotide binding proteins. RAW264 membranes were found to contain one major pertussis toxin substrate, which was recognized by both antibodies AS/6 and LE/3. The AS/6 antibody was made against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the carboxyl-terminal decapeptide of the alpha-subunit of transducin, and the LE/3 antibody was made against the peptide corresponding to amino acids 160-169 of a guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gi-2-alpha) cloned from a mouse macrophage cell line. The RAW264 pertussis toxin substrate was not recognized by either antibody CW/6 or antibody RV/3, which recognize the 41-kilodalton alpha-subunit of brain Gi (Gi-1-alpha) and Go-alpha, respectively. Pertussis toxin substrates from bovine brain were resolved into four major alpha-subunits by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and the LE/3 antibody recognized only one of the four proteins. The brain LE/3 reactive protein also reacted with the AS/6 antibody, migrated with a 40K molecular weight, and had an isoelectric point slightly more basis than the RAW264 pertussis toxin substrate. Therefore, the major pertussis toxin substrate in RAW264 cells appears to be Gi-2, and bovine brain contains a relatively minor amount of a closely related guanine nucleotide binding protein.

The effect of muscarinic agonist on adenylate cyclase was investigated in neonatal islet cells and in a clonal pituitary cell line (GH4C1) following labelling of the intracellular ATP pool with [2,8 3H]adenine. In islet cells carbamylcholine was without effect on basal or glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, measured as 3H cyclic AMP production, but inhibited 3H cyclic AMP production in the clonal pituitary cells. The involvement of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein of adenylate cyclase (Ni) was investigated by the use of the Bordetella pertussis exotoxin, islet activating protein (IAP). Pre-treatment of islet cells with IAP was without effect on adenylate cyclase following carbamylcholine but in the clonal pituitary line abolished the inhibition of 3H cyclic AMP production. It is concluded that in the islet cell, in contrast to the clonal pituitary cell, muscarinic receptors are not effectively coupled through Ni to inhibit adenylate cyclase.

Treatment of isolated hepatocytes with F- produced a concentration-dependent activation of phosphorylase, efflux of Ca2+, rise in [Ca2+]i, increase in Ins 1,4,5-P3 levels, decrease in PI-4,5-P2 levels, and increase in DAG levels. The levels of intracellular cAMP were decreased by NaF. The effects of NaF were potentiated by AlCl3. This potentiation was abolished by the Al3+ chelator deferoxamine. These results illustrate that AlF4- can mimic the effects of Ca2+-mobilizing hormones in hepatocytes and suggest that the coupling of the receptors for these hormones to the hydrolysis of PI-4,5-P2 is through a guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein. This is because AlF4- is known to modulate the activity of other guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins (Gi, Gs, and transducin). Calcium-sensitive inositide release in a purified rat liver plasma membrane preparation was increased by calcium-mobilizing hormones in the presence of guanine nucleotides. Vasopressin-stimulated inositide release was evident in the presence of GTP or GTP gamma S. The guanine nucleotide and hormonal stimulation was evident on both inositide production and PI 4,5-P2 degradation. Treatment of plasma membranes with cholera toxin or islet activating protein or prior injection of animals with islet activating protein did not affect stimulation of inositide release by GTP gamma S or GTP gamma S plus vasopressin. The results suggest that calcium-mobilizing hormones stimulate polyphosphoinositide breakdown in rat liver plasma membranes through a novel guanine nucleotide binding protein. The GTPase activity of rat liver plasma membranes was stimulated 20% by 10(-8) M vasopressin. The vasopressin-stimulated GTPase activity was not inhibited in plasma membranes that had been ADP-ribosylated with either cholera toxin or pertussis toxin. When membranes that had been solubilized after preincubation with [3H]vasopressin were subjected to sucrose gradient centrifugation, most of the protein-bound [3H]vasopressin migrated as a single band, also, there was a GTPase activity that migrated with the bound [3H]vasopressin. This peak of bound [3H]vasopressin was decreased 90% when the sucrose gradient centrifugation was run in the presence of 10 M GTP gamma S. Direct evidence that a GTP-binding protein was present in the [3H]vasopressin peak was obtained by the immuno-detection of a 35 kDa beta subunit of a GTP-binding protein and a 40 kDa alpha subunit. These results support the conclusion that liver plasma membranes contain a GTP-binding protein that can complex with the vasopressin receptor.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The acute in vitro effects of ethanol on cerebral cortical adenylate cyclase activity and beta-adrenergic receptor characteristics suggested a site of action of ethanol at Gs, the stimulatory guanine nucleotide binding protein. After chronic ethanol ingestion, the beta-adrenergic receptor appeared to be uncoupled (i.e., the form of the receptor with high affinity for agonist was undetectable), and stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity by isoproterenol or guanine nucleotides was reduced, suggesting an alteration in the properties of Gs. To further characterize this change, cholera and pertussis toxin-mediated 32P-ADP-ribosylation of mouse cortical membranes was assessed in mice that had chronically ingested ethanol in a liquid diet. 32P-labeled proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and quantitated by autoradiography. There was a selective 30-50% decrease in cholera toxin-induced labeling of 46 kDa protein band in membranes of ethanol-fed mice, with no apparent change in pertussis toxin-induced labeling. The 46 kDa protein has a molecular weight similar to that of the alpha subunit of Gs, suggesting a reduced amount of this protein or a change in its characteristics as a substrate for cholera toxin-induced ADP-ribosylation in cortical membranes of ethanol-fed mice.

2-Chloroadenosine reduced the contractile tension of guinea-pig atria directly, and inhibited the increase in tension produced by beta-adrenergic stimulation of guinea-pig papillary muscle. Both effects were reduced by 8-phenyltheophylline, a competitive antagonist at extracellular P1-purinoceptors. Treatment of guinea-pigs with pertussis toxin reduced the sensitivity of both atria and ventricles to 2-chloroadenosine. Atria were significantly affected after treatment with 125 micrograms/kg toxin, but not 100 micrograms/kg. 60 micrograms/kg toxin had no effect on the sensitivity of the ventricles, but 100 and 125 micrograms/kg significantly decreased the antiadrenergic effect of 2-chloroadenosine. We conclude that both the direct and antiadrenergic effects are mediated by an inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein.
