Somatostatin reduces voltage-dependent Ca2+ current (ICa) and intracellular free Ca2+ concentration in the AtT-20/D16-16 pituitary cell line. We tested whether guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G or N proteins) are involved in the signal transduction mechanism between the somatostatin receptor and voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. Treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin, which selectively ADP ribosylates the GTP binding proteins Gi and Go and suppresses the ability of Gi to couple inhibitory receptors to adenylate cyclase, abolished the action of somatostatin on both ICa and intracellular free Ca2+. Intracellular application of the nonhydrolyzable guanine nucleotide analog guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S]), which irreversibly activates G proteins, changed the somatostatin effect on ICa from a reversible to an irreversible inhibition. Intracellular GTP[gamma S] alone caused a very slowly developing inhibition of ICa. When ICa was inhibited by GTP[gamma S] (alone or with somatostatin), it failed to respond to subsequent applications of somatostatin. The effect of GTP[gamma S] on the inhibition of ICa by somatostatin was not altered by the intracellular application of cAMP and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. The results suggest that a GTP-binding protein is directly involved in the cAMP-independent receptor-mediated inhibition of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels.

The effect of pertussis toxin on somatostatin-induced K+ current was examined in dissociated human pituitary tumor cells obtained from two acromegalic patients. Somatostatin-induced hyperpolarization or K+ current was observed in 20 of 23 cells in adenoma 1 and 10 of 11 cells in adenoma 2. After treatment with pertussis toxin for 24 h, these responses were completely suppressed (0/14 in adenoma 1, 0/10 in adenoma 2). Spontaneous action potentials, K+, Na+, and Ca2+ currents were well preserved after pertussis toxin treatment. When crude membrane fraction was incubated with [32P]NAD, a 41K protein was ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin. Hormone release was inhibited by somatostatin and this inhibition was blocked by pertussis toxin treatment.

Rat parietal cells were incubated for 2 h with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml) which ADP-ribosylates and inactivates guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins (G proteins) of the 'Gi-like' family. The effect of this pretreatment on the action of inhibitors of parietal cell acid secretion was investigated by using the accumulation of the weak base aminopyrine as an index of secretory activity. The inhibitory actions of near maximally effective concentrations of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), somatostatin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on histamine-stimulated aminopyrine accumulation were reduced by 83%, 72% and 70%, respectively, by preincubation with pertussis toxin. By contrast, the inhibitory action of a near maximally effective concentration of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate on histamine-stimulated aminopyrine accumulation was reduced by only 12%. It is concluded that G-proteins are involved in the inhibitory actions of PGE2, somatostatin and EGF on parietal cells. However, since the inhibitory actions of PGE2 and EGF can be distinguished by the blockade of the action of EGF, but not that of PGE2, by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, it is possible that PGE2 and EGF either activate the same G-protein in different ways or work through different G-proteins.

Different peptide hormones influence hormone secretion in pituitary cells by diverse second messenger systems. Recent data indicate that luteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) stimulates and somatostatin inhibits voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels of GH3 cells via pertussis-toxin-sensitive mechanisms [Rosenthal et al. (1988) EMBO J. 7, 1627-1633]. In other pituitary cell lines, somatostatin has been shown to cause a pertussis-toxin-sensitive decrease in adenylate cyclase activity, and LHRH and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulate phosphoinositol lipid hydrolysis in a pertussis-toxin-independent manner. Whether stimulation of Ca2+ influx by TRH is affected by pertussis toxin is not known. In order to elucidate which of the hormone receptors interact with pertussis-toxin-sensitive and -insensitive G-proteins, we measured the effects of LHRH, somatostatin and TRH on high-affinity GTPases in membranes of GH3 cells. In control membranes, both LHRH and TRH stimulated the high-affinity GTPase by 20%, somatostatin by 25%. Maximal hormone effects were observed at a concentration of about 1 microM. Pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin abolished pertussis-toxin-catalyzed [32P]ADP-ribosylation of 39-40-kDa proteins in subsequently prepared membranes and reduced basal GTPase activity. The toxin also reduced by more than half the increases in GTPase activity induced by LHRH and TRH; stimulation of GTPase by somatostatin was completely suppressed. Stimulation of adenylate cyclase by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) was not impaired by pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin. Somatostatin but not LHRH and TRH decreased forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. The results suggest that the activated receptors for LHRH and TRH act via pertussis-toxin-sensitive and -insensitive G-proteins, whereas effects of somatostatin are exclusively mediated by pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-proteins.

Neurotensin, bradykinin and somatostatin inhibited in a time- and concentration-dependent manner prostaglandin E1- or forskolin-stimulated cAMP production in neuroblastoma N1E115 cells. Cell treatment with 1 microgram/ml pertussis toxin for 6 hours reversed the inhibition elicited by peptides after short incubation periods (less than or equal to 1 min) but, in contrast, had no effect after longer incubation periods (greater than or equal to 3 min). Fluoroaluminate also inhibited prostaglandin E1-stimulated cAMP production in N1E115 cells, and this effect was not reversed by pertussis toxin. The 6 hour treatment with pertussis toxin was shown to be sufficient to ADP ribosylate virtually all of the 41 kD protein substrate corresponding to the alpha subunit of Gi. Protein kinase C activation with phorbol ester did not inhibit basal or stimulated cAMP production. Our data point to the existence of both pertussis toxin sensitive and insensitive mechanisms of neuropeptide-mediated inhibition of cAMP formation in N1E115 cells. The toxin insensitive response is not mediated by protein kinase C. The possibility is discussed that it results from the activation of a pertussis toxin insensitive G protein.

Somatostatin receptors of plasma membranes from beta cells of hamster insulinoma were covalently labelled with 125I-[Leu8,D-Trp22,Tyr25]somatostatin-28 (125I-somatostatin-28) and solubilized with the non-denaturing detergent Triton X-100. Analysis by SDS/PAGE and autoradiography revealed three specific 125I-somatostatin-28 receptor complexes with similar molecular masses (228 kDa, 128 kDa and 45 kDa) to those previously identified [Cotroneo, P., Marie, J.-C. & Rosselin, G. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 174, 219-224]. The major labelled complex (128 kDa) was adsorbed to a wheat-germ-agglutinin agarose column and eluted by N-acetylglucosamine. Also, the binding of 125I-somatostatin-28 to plasma membranes was specifically inhibited by the GTP analog, guanosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP[S]) in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, when somatostatin-28 receptors were solubilized by Triton X-100 as a reversible complex with 125I-somatostatin-28, GTP[S] specifically dissociated the bound ligand to a larger extent from the soluble receptors than from the plasma-membrane-embedded receptors, the radioactivity remaining bound after 15 min at 37 degrees C being 30% and 83% respectively. After pertussis-toxin-induced [32P]ADP-ribosylation of pancreatic membranes, a 41-kDa [32P]ADP-ribose-labelled inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein coeluted with the 128-kDa and 45-kDa receptor complexes. The labelling of both receptor proteins was sensitive to GTP[S]. The labelling of the 228-kDa band was inconsistent. These results support the conclusion that beta cell somatostatin receptors can be solubilized as proteins of 128 kDa and 45 kDa. The major labeled species corresponds to the 128-kDa band and is a glycoprotein. The pancreatic membrane contains a 41-kDa GTP-binding protein that can complex with somatostatin receptors.

We studied the interaction between somatostatin receptors and inhibitory GTP binding protein in rat cerebrocortical membranes. Guanine nucleotides reduced [125I-Tyr1] somatostatin binding to cerebrocortical membranes in a dose-dependent manner with rank order of potency being guanyl-5'-yl-imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) greater than GTP greater than GMP. Maximum reduction of the binding to 32% of control was observed in the presence of 10(-5) M Gpp(NH)p. Scatchard analysis of the labeled somatostatin binding revealed that the decrease in the binding by Gpp(NH)p was due to the decrease in the binding affinity for somatostatin. Divalent cations, such as Mg++, Mn++, and Ca++, caused an increase in labeled somatostatin binding to membranes with the maximum binding observed at a concentration of 10, 10, 1 mM, respectively. However, Na+ decreased a labeled somatostatin binding in a dose-dependent manner, and half maximum inhibition of the binding was observed at 10 mM Na+. Moreover, Gpp(NH)p and Na+ lowered labeled somatostatin binding in an additive fashion. When cerebrocortical membranes were treated at 37 degrees C for 40 min with various concentrations of Islet-Activating-Protein (IAP), which had been preactivated with dithiothreitol, subsequent labeled somatostatin binding to the membranes was decreased in a dose-dependent manner. 30 micrograms/ml IAP treatment caused a decrease in the binding to 50% of control, which was characterized by the decreased binding affinity without a significant change in the binding capacity. Furthermore, exposure of IAP plus NAD to cerebrocortical membranes caused ADP-ribosylation of a membrane protein with Mr = 41,000 on autoradiogram. Such an IAP treatment of cerebrocortical membranes abolished the inhibitory effect of somatostatin on vasoactive intestinal peptide-stimulated increase in adenylate cyclase activity. These results suggest that somatostatin receptors in the brain couple to inhibitory GTP binding protein, which mediates adenylate cyclase inhibition by somatostatin.

Preincubation with an alpha 2-adrenergic agonist sensitized subsequent forskolin- and vasoactive intestinal peptide-stimulated cyclic AMP production in HT29 cells, a human colonic adenocarcinoma cell line. Preincubation with somatostatin, another agonist negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase, sensitized forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production to a lesser extent. alpha 2-Adrenergic agonist preincubation also resulted in desensitization as indicated by a shift to the right in the dose-response curve of a subsequent challenge by an alpha 2-adrenergic agonist. In an effort to elucidate the mechanism for sensitization, we examined protein kinase C and the Na+/H+ antiporter. Whereas these components had marked effects on forskolin stimulation, there was no effect on sensitization. Changes in the concentration of extra-cellular Ca2+ or Mg2+ had no effect on either forskolin stimulation or sensitization. Pertussis toxin pretreatment caused a time-dependent decrease in sensitization, an attenuation of inhibition of cyclic AMP production, and a decrease in subsequent [32P]ADP-ribosylation by pertussis toxin. The time course for these three events was similar, implicating the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein in the mechanism for alpha 2-adrenergic receptor-mediated sensitization of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production. In addition, pertussis toxin dramatically decreased forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production, although with a different time course. These results suggest that the mechanism of sensitization is via an as yet undefined sequence of biochemical events that includes the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, but does not include inhibition of adenylate cyclase nor activation of the Na+/H+ antiporter.

beta-Adrenergic receptors on membranes prepared from L6 myoblasts, wild-type S49 lymphoma cells, and an adenylate cyclase-deficient variant (cyc-) of S49 lymphoma cells bind the agonist [3H]hydroxybenzylisoproterenol ([3H]HBI) with high affinity. In each case the agonist [3H]HBI is associated with a larger complex than is the antagonist [125I]iodopindolol, and the binding of [3H]HBI can be inhibited by GTP. These observations suggest that there is an agonist-dependent association of the receptor with a guanine nucleotide-binding protein. The goal of the present experiments was to investigate the possibility that an interaction of beta-adrenergic receptors with the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein of adenylate cyclase was responsible for these observations. Treatment of S49 cells with pertussis toxin decreased the extent of pertussis toxin-catalyzed [32P]ADP-ribosylation of a 41,000-dalton protein, measured in vitro, and decreased the inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity observed in the presence of somatostatin or analogues of GTP. Isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was potentiated following treatment of wild-type S49 cells and L6 myoblasts with pertussis toxin. Although the ability of receptors on membranes prepared from L6 myoblasts to bind the agonist [3H]HBI was not affected by treatment of cells with pertussis toxin, treatment of cyc- S49 cells with pertussis toxin markedly decreased the ability of receptors to bind [3H]HBI. The observed inhibition of the binding of the agonist [3H]HBI to beta-adrenergic receptors on membranes prepared from cyc- S49 cells after treatment with pertussis toxin could be explained by an interaction between beta-adrenergic receptors and the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Such an interaction may represent a mechanism through which stimulation of the activity of adenylate cyclase by beta-adrenergic receptors can be regulated or through which beta-adrenergic receptors can affect the activity of cyclic AMP-independent cellular processes.

Somatostatin (SRIF) inhibits stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation and adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) release from mouse anterior pituitary tumor cells (AtT-20/D16-16). In order to determine whether guanine nucleotide inhibitory proteins (Ni) mediate these effects, AtT-20 cells were treated with pertussis toxin, an agent that inactivates Ni. Pertussis toxin catalyses the ADP-ribosylation of a 41,000 MW protein in membranes of AtT-20 cells. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin prevents the subsequent ability of toxin to catalyse the labeling of Ni. This effect is dependent on the time of pretreatment and is not reversible. The inhibition of SRIF of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation and ACTH release is prevented by pertussis toxin treatment. The blockade is dependent on the time and concentration of toxin used and is not reversible. Pertussis toxin treatment prevents SRIF from inhibiting corticotropin releasing factor and cholera toxin-stimulated cyclic AMP synthesis. The inhibition of K+ and 8-bromocyclic AMP-stimulated ACTH release by SRIF is attenuated partially by toxin treatment. The ability of forskolin and cholera toxin to stimulate cyclic AMP formation and ACTH release is enhanced by treatment of AtT-20 cells with pertussis toxin. The increased cyclic AMP response to forskolin is prevented by cycloheximide. The data indicate that Ni mediates the inhibition by SRIF of cyclic AMP formation and the ACTH release that results from adenylate cyclase stimulation.
