Abstract
The crucial role of two reactive arginyl residues within the substrate binding domain of human Type I D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) 5-phosphatase has been investigated by chemical modification and site-directed mutagenesis. Chemical modification of the enzyme by phenylglyoxal is accompanied by irreversible inhibition of enzymic activity. Our studies demonstrate that phenylglyoxal forms an enzyme-inhibitor complex and that the modification reaction is prevented in the presence of either Ins(1,4,5)P3, D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) or 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG). Direct [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to the covalently modified enzyme is dramatically reduced. The stoichiometry of labeling with 14C-labeled phenylglyoxal is shown to be 2.1 mol of phenylglyoxal incorporated per mol of enzyme. A single [14C]phenylglyoxal-modified peptide is isolated following alpha-chymotrypsin proteolysis of the radiolabeled Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The peptide sequence (i.e. M-N-T-R-C-P-A-W-C-D-R-I-L) corresponds to amino acids 340-352 of Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase. An estimate of the radioactivity of the different phenylthiohydantoin amino acid derivatives shows the modified amino acids to be Arg-343 and Arg-350. Furthermore, two mutant enzymes were obtained by site-directed mutagenesis of the two arginyl residues to alanine, and both mutant enzymes have identical UV circular dichroism (CD) spectra. The two mutants (i.e. R343A and R350A) show increased Km values for Ins(l,4,5)P3 (10- and 15-fold, respectively) resulting in a dramatic loss in enzymic activity. In conclusion, we have directly identified two reactive arginyl residues as part of the active site of Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase. These results point out the crucial role for substrate recognition of a 10 amino acids-long sequence segment which is conserved among the primary structure of inositol and phosphatidylinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases.

Abstract
A mathematical model is proposed to describe the intracellular Ca2+ (Cai) transient and electrical activity of vascular endothelial cells (VEC) elicited by fluid shear stress (tau). The intracellular Ca2+ store of the model VEC is comprised of a Cai-sensitive (sc) and an inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (IP3)-sensitive compartment (dc). The dc [Ca2+] is refilled by the sc whose [Ca2+] is the same as extracellular [Ca2+]. IP3 produced by the tau-deformed mechanoreceptors discharges the dc Ca2+ into the cytosol. The increase of cytosolic [Ca2+] induces Ca2+ release (CICR) from the sc. The raised Cai activates a Cai-activated K+ current (IK,Ca) and inhibits IP3 production. The cell membrane potential is determined by IK,Ca, voltage-dependent Na+ and K+ currents. Steady tau > 0.1 dyne/cm2 elicits a Cai transient which reaches peak value at 19-54 sec. The peak Cai varies sigmoidally with Log10(tau) with a maximal peak Cai of 150 nM at tau = 4 dynes/cm2. Step increases of tau fail to elicit a Ca2+ response in cells previously stimulated by a lower shear. The Ca2+ response gradually decreases with repetitive tau stimuli. Pulsatile shear elicits two to three times higher Cai and hyperpolarizes the cell more than steady shear of the same magnitude. The simulated Ca2+ responses to tau are quantitatively and qualitatively similar to those observed in cultured VEC. The model provides a possible explanation of why the vasodilating stimulus is greater for pulsatile flow than for nonpulsatile flow.

Abstract
The addition of progesterone (1-100 mumol/l) to the extracellular fluid bathing rat hepatocytes led to a rapid and fully reversible depolarization of the cell membrane. The progesterone-induced depolarization was paralleled by a decrease of potassium selectivity and an increase of cell membrane resistance and was abolished in the presence of the potassium channel blocker barium. Accordingly, in whole cell recordings, progesterone led to a decrease of the cell membrane conductance. 17 alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone and beta-estradiol were less effective by a factor of 10, whereas cholesterol, corticosterone and hydrocortisone did not significantly alter the potential difference across the cell membrane. In conclusion, acute administration of progesterone depolarized rat hepatocytes by decreasing the potassium conductance of the cell membrane.

Abstract
We previously reported that the Ca(2+)-activated K+ channel (KCa-channel) in cultured smooth muscle cells from porcine coronary artery was inhibited by protein kinase C (C-kinase). In this study, inhibition of the KCa-channel by receptor-mediated vascular contractile agonists, such as angiotensin II (ANG II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1), was investigated by the patch-clamp technique. In cell-attached patches, addition of ANG II (500 nM) or ET-1 (50 nM) to the bath inhibited the KCa-channel activated by the calcium ionophore A23187 (10-20 microM). Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 1 microM), a C-kinase activator, also decreased the open probability of the KCa-channel. The PMA-induced decrease in the open probability was reversed by subsequent application of staurosporine (1 nM), a C-kinase inhibitor, but the ANG II- and ET-1-induced decreases were not reversed by subsequent application of staurosporine (> 30 nM). Pretreatment of smooth muscle cells with 30 nM staurosporine, a protein kinase inhibitor, or 1 mM neomycin, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, also did not abolish the inhibition of the KCa-channel by ANG II. Furthermore, ANG II inhibited the KCa-channel in cells in which C-kinase was down-regulated. These results indicate that, in porcine coronary artery smooth muscle cells, ANG II and ET-1 inhibit the KCa-channel by a C-kinase-independent mechanism.

Abstract
Exposure of the perfused rat liver to a perfusate made hyperosmotic by the presence of 200 mmol l-1 glucose led, as expected, to marked, transient hepatocellular shrinkage followed by volume-regulatory net K+ uptake. However, even after this volume-regulatory K+ uptake had ceased, the liver cells are still slightly shrunken. Withdrawal of glucose from the perfusate resulted in marked transient cell swelling, net K+ release from the liver and restoration of cell volume. However, when the Krebs-Henseleit perfusate was made hyperosmotic by the presence of urea (20-300 mM), there was no immediate decrease in liver mass, yet a slight and persistent cell shrinkage developing 2 min after the onset of exposure to urea. Surprisingly, urea induced concentration-dependent net K+ efflux from the liver and removal of urea net K+ reuptake from the inflowing perfusate. The urea (200 mM)-induced net K+ release resembled that observed following a lowering of the influent [NaCl]: making the perfusate hypoosmotic (245 mosmol l-1, by reducing influent [NaCl] by 30 mM) gave roughly the same K+ response as hyperosmotic exposure (505 mosmol/l) resulting from the presence of 200 mM urea. The urea-induced K+ efflux was not inhibited in the presence of ouabain (1 mM), or in Ca(++)-free perfusion, but was modified in the presence of quinidine (1 mM) or Ba++ (1 mM). The direction in which the liver was perfused had no effect on the urea-induced net K+ release.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In soluble and particulate extracts from muscle D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] and D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4] are metabolised stepwise to inositol. Ins(1,4,5)P3 is rapidly dephosphorylated to D-myo-inositol 1,4-bisphosphate then to D-myo-inositol 4-phosphate and finally inositol. In soluble extracts Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 is dephosphorylated to D-myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate then sequentially to D-myo-inositol 3,4-bisphosphate, D-myo-inositol 3-phosphate and inositol, while in particulate extracts D-myo-inositol 1,3-bisphosphate is the predominant inositol bisphosphate formed. Dephosphorylation of these inositol polyphosphates is Mg2+ dependent and inhibited by D-2,3-bisphosphoglyceric acid. Ins(1,4,5)P3 is also phosphorylated to form Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in soluble extracts by Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase. Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase activity is Mg2+ and ATP dependent and is stimulated by Ca2+ and calmodulin. Particulate (sarcotubular) inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) is found in membranes which are intimately involved in excitation-contraction coupling and the generation of the primary Ca2+ signal of muscle cells. Particulate 5-phosphatase had the highest specific activity in the transverse-tubule membrane, when compared to the terminal cisternae and longitudinal-tubule membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Particulate Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-3-phosphatase activity was also detected after fractionation of solubilised sarcotubular membranes by DEAE-Sephacel. Particulate 5-phosphatase activity was purified 25,600-fold to a specific activity of 25.6 mumol Ins(1,4,5)P3 hydrolysed.min-1.mg protein-1, after DEAE-Sephacel and novel affinity chromatography using D-2,3-bisphosphoglycerate/agarose and Sepharose-4B-immobilised Ins(1,4,5)P3-analog matrices. Purified particulate 5-phosphatase had apparent Km of 46.3 microM and 1.9 microM and Vmax of 115 and 0.046 mumol substrate hydrolysed.min-1.mg protein-1, for Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, respectively. In contrast, purified soluble type I 5-phosphatase had apparent Km of 8.9 microM and 1.1 microM and Vmax of 3.55 and 0.13 mumol substrate hydrolysed.min-1.mg protein-1, for Ins(1,4,5P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, respectively. As in other cells, muscle 5-phosphatases have a lower affinity, but a higher capacity to metabolise Ins(1,4,5)P3 than Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Soluble type I 5-phosphatase may have a functional role in the metabolism of both inositol polyphosphates, while particulate 5-phosphatase may primarily metabolise Ins(1,4,5)P3. Purified Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase had an apparent Km of 0.42 microM and a Vmax of 4.12 nmol Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphorylated.min-1.mg protein-1. The profile of inositol polyphosphate metabolism in muscle is similar to that reported in other tissues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
We have recently found the calcium dependent glycogenolytic effect of a pancreastatin on rat hepatocytes and the mobilization of intracellular calcium. To further investigate the mechanism of action of pancreastatin on liver we have studied its effect on guanylate cyclase, adenylate cyclase, and phospholipase C, and we have explored the possible involvement of GTP binding proteins by measuring GTPase activity as well as the effect of pertussis toxin treatment of plasma liver membranes on the pancreastatin stimulated GTPase activity and the production of cyclic GMP and myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate. Pancreastatin stimulated GTPase activity of rat liver membranes about 25% over basal. The concentration dependency curve showed that maximal stimulation was achieved at 10(-7)M pancreastatin (EC50 = 3 nM). This stimulation was partially inhibited by treatment of the membranes with pertussis toxin. The effect of pancreastatin on guanylate cyclase and phospholipase C were examined by measuring the production of cyclic GMP and myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate respectively. Pancreastatin increased the basal activity of guanylate cyclase to a maximum of 2.5-fold the unstimulated activity at 30 degrees C, in a time- and dose-dependent manner, reaching the maximal stimulation above control with 10(-7) M pancreastatin at 10 min (EC50 = 0.6 nM). This effect was completely abolished when rat liver membranes had been ADP-ribosylated with pertussis toxin. On the other hand, adenylate cyclase activity was not affected by pancreastatin. Phospholipase C activity of rat liver membranes was rapidly stimulated (within 2-5 min) at 30 degrees C by 10(-7) M pancreastatin, reaching a maximum at 15 min.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
1. The mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores by D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate[Ins(1,4,5)P3] is now widely accepted as the primary link between plasma membrane receptors that stimulate phospholipase C and the subsequent increase in intracellular free Ca2+ that occurs when such receptors are activated (Berridge, 1993). Since the observations of Volpe et al. (1985) which showed that Ins(1,4,5)P3 could induce Ca2+ release from isolated terminal cisternae membranes and elicit contracture of chemically skinned muscle fibres, research has focused on the role of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in the generation of SR Ca2+ transients and in the mechanism of excitation-contraction coupling (EC-coupling). 2. The mechanism of signal transduction at the triadic junction during EC-coupling is unknown. Asymmetric charge movement and mechanical coupling between highly specialized triadic proteins has been proposed as the primary mechanism for voltage-activated generation of SR Ca2+ signals and subsequent contraction. Ins(1,4,5)P3 has also been proposed as the major signal transduction molecule for the generation of the primary Ca2+ transient produced during EC-coupling. 3. Investigations on the generation of Ca2+ transients by Ins(1,4,5)P3 have been conducted on ion channels incorporated into lipid bilayers, skinned and intact fibres and isolated membrane vesicles. Ins(1,4,5)P3 induces SR Ca2+ release and the enzymes responsible for its synthesis and degradation are present in muscle tissue. However, the sensitivity of the Ca2+ release mechanism to Ins(1,4,5)P3 is highly dependent on experimental conditions and on membrane potential. 4. While Ins(1,4,5)P3 may not be the major signal transduction molecule for the generation of the primary Ca2+ signal produced during voltage-activated contraction, this inositol polyphosphate may play a functional role as a modulator of EC-coupling and/or of the processes of myoplasmic Ca2+ regulation occurring on a time scale of seconds, during the events of contraction.

Abstract
The effect of carbamazepine on protein kinase C, which is believed to phosphorylate a number of proteins, was compared with that of lithium in vitro. Lithium did not significantly inhibit the protein kinase C activity in the rat cerebral cortex in vitro, and 0.01 mM of carbamazepine had no inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity. However, inhibition did begin to appear at 1 mM. The Lineweaver-Burk plot of carbamazepine was similar to the competitive inhibition pattern. The data suggest that lithium and carbamazepine as mood stabilizers have the same effect on the manic state, but their mechanism reducing mania may differ in the cell signal transduction pathways.

Abstract
Osmotic swelling of rat hepatocytes increases fluorescence of Acridine orange and of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran, both indicative of alkalinization of acidic intracellular vesicles. Similar to osmotic cell swelling, insulin and glutamine lead to an increase in Acridine orange fluorescence, an effect virtually abolished upon osmotic reversal of glutamine-induced cell swelling. Barium, which blocks K+ channels in the plasma membrane, similarly leads to cell swelling and increase of Acridine orange fluorescence. Since proteolysis is governed by lysosomal pH, these observations indicate that the anti-proteolytic action of osmotic cell swelling is mediated by lysosomal alkalinization. Thereby, insulin, glutamine and barium probably exert their anti-proteolytic action by cell swelling and subsequent lysosomal alkalinization.

Abstract
D-3-Azido-3-deoxy-myo-inositol (3AMI) is an inhibitor of the growth of v-sis-transformed NIH 3T3 cells but not of wild-type NIH 3T3 cells, whose effects may be mediated through the phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase pathway. We studied some properties of the cellular pharmacology of 3AMI using high-specific-activity [3H]-3AMI. The uptake of [3H]-3AMI by wild-type NIH 3T3 and v-sis NIH 3T3 cells was similar. [3H]-3AMI was a substrate for phosphatidylinositol synthetase, with the maximal velocity (Vmax) being 1.0 nmol min-1 mg-1 and the Michaelis constant (Km) being 23 mM. Corresponding values obtained for [3H]-myo-inositol as a substrate were 5.5 nmol min-1 mg-1 and 3.2 mM. [3H]-3AMI was incorporated into the cellular inositol lipids of v-sis NIH 3T3 cells to a similar extent as that observed for [3H]-myo-inositol but was not incorporated into the inositol lipids of wild-type NIH 3T3 cells. The [3H]-3AMI incorporated by the v-sis NIH 3T3 cells was present in the phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol phosphate fractions but not in bisphosphorylated phosphatidylinositol. myo-Inositol antagonized the growth-inhibitory effects of 3AMI. The v-sis NIH 3T3 cells were found to be more sensitive than the wild-type NIH 3T3 cells to growth inhibition (without 3AMI) caused by the removal of myo-inositol from the medium. The results of the study suggest that 3AMI is an antimetabolite of myo-inositol. The relative sensitivity of v-sis NIH 3T3 and some other cells to 3AMI may be a reflection of increased myo-inositol requirements for the growth of these cells as compared with wild-type NIH 3T3 cells.

Abstract
Synaptic ribbons are specialized cytoskeletal components of the presynaptic exocytotic machinery in photoreceptors. In cone photoreceptors, these structures are highly dynamic disappearing during darkness and reforming in the light phase. In this study we wanted to characterize the second messengers involved in the regulation of these cyclic changes. We show that synaptic ribbons in cone photoreceptors are very sensitive to both Li+ and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate suggesting that inositol polyphosphates might play a physiological role in the disassembly of synaptic ribbons. The presence of the phosphoinositide pathway was demonstrated in isolated photoreceptor synapses. The phosphoinositide metabolism in photoreceptor synapses was dark-activated and correlated with the disappearance of synaptic ribbons during dark-adaptation. Since Li+ and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate only influenced synaptic ribbons in cones but not in rods the dark-activated phosphoinositide metabolism should be largely ascribed to cone synapses.

Abstract
Isolated rat hepatocytes were exposed to hypotonic media (225 mosmol/l) for 5 and 15 min and processed for a quantitative electron microscopic stereologic analysis. Within 5 min of hypotonicity, the hepatocyte volume increased by 25% and thereafter displayed a volume regulatory decrease leading to mean cellular volume, which was 16% above that of controls. Stereologic analysis of the major subcellular compartment, the cytosol, showed an identical change as the whole cell. In contrast to that, the mitochondrial compartment increased in volume by 30% within the first 5 min of exposure and returned by regulatory volume decrease back to values of the isotonic controls after 15 min of hypotonicity. In contrast, hypotonicity (220 mosmol/l)-induced stimulation of flux through mitochondrial glutaminase and the glycine cleavage enzyme complex, as assessed by 14CO2 production from [1-14C]glutamine or [1-14C]glycine in isolated perfused rat liver persisted throughout a 15-min period of hypotonic exposure. Thus hypotonicity-induced alterations of mitochondrial metabolism apparently do not parallel the time course of mitochondrial volume changes. This suggests that persistent mitochondrial swelling is not required for functional alterations, but that the latter may be triggered by the initial swelling of mitochondria. Hypotonic exposure did not alter the nuclear volume of isolated hepatocytes. Cell membrane surface nearly doubled after 5 min of hypotonic exposure, but returned within 15 min of exposure to values observed in normotonic media. This may reflect the participation of exocytosis in hepatocyte volume regulation.

Abstract
Addition of t-butylhydroperoxide (0.2 mM) to isolated perfused rat liver led to a net K+ release of 7.2 +/- 0.2 mumol/g within 8 min and a net K+ reuptake of 6.6 +/- 0.4 mumol/g following withdrawal of the hydroperoxide, in line with earlier findings by Sies et al. [Sies, H., Gerstenecker, C., Summer, K. H., Menzel, H. & Flohé, R. (1974) in Glutathione (Flohé, L., Benöhr, C., Sies, H., Waller, H. D., eds) pp. 261-276, G. Thieme Publ. Stuttgart]. Net K+ release roughly paralleled the amount of GSSG released from the liver under the influence of the hydroperoxide. The t-butylhydroperoxide-induced K+ efflux was inhibited by approximately 70% in the presence of Ba2+ (1 mM), by 30% in Ca(2+)-free perfusions and was decreased by 50-60% when the intracellular Ca2+ stores were simultaneously depleted by repeated additions of phenylephrine. t-Butylhydroperoxide-induced K+ efflux was accompanied by a decrease of the intracellular water space by 58 +/- 14 microliter/g (n = 4), corresponding to a 10% cell shrinkage. The effect of t-butylhydroperoxide on cell volume was inhibited by 70-80% in the presence of Ba2+. In isolated rat hepatocytes treatment with t-butylhydroperoxide led to a slight hyperpolarization of the membrane at concentrations of 100 nM, but marked hyperpolarization occurred at t-butylhydroperoxide concentrations above 10 microM. t-Butylhydroperoxide (0.2 mM) transiently increased the portal-perfusion pressure by 3.3 +/- 0.6 cm H2O (n = 18), due to a slight stimulation of prostaglandin-D2 release under the influence of the hydroperoxide. In the presence of Ba2+ (1 mM), t-butylhydroperoxide increased the perfusion pressure by 12.7 +/- 1.2 cm H2O (n = 9) and produced an approximately tenfold increase of prostaglandin-D2 and thromboxane-B2 release. Under these conditions, glucose output from the liver rose from 0.9 +/- 0.03 to 2.9 +/- 0.7 mumol.g-1.min-1 (n = 4) with a time course roughly resembling that of portal-pressure increase and prostaglandin-D2 overflow. These effects were largely abolished in the presence of ibuprofen or the thromboxane-receptor-antagonist BM 13.177. The t-butylhydroperoxide effects on perfusion pressure, glucose and eicosanoid output were also enhanced in the presence of insulin or during hypotonic exposure; i.e. conditions known to swell hepatocytes, but not during hyperosmotic exposure. The data suggest that t-butylhydroperoxide induces liver-cell shrinkage and hyperpolarization of the plasma membrane due to activation of Ba(2+)-sensitive K+ channels.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Exposure of isolated rat hepatocytes to hypotonic (190 mosmol/l) incubation media lowered the cellular G-actin level without affecting the total actin content: here the G-/total actin ratio decreased by 15.5 +/- 1.4% (n = 7). Similar effects were observed following isotonic cell swelling by either addition of glutamine (10 mM) or insulin (100 nM), resulting in a decrease of the G-/total actin ratios by 13.5 +/- 2.1% (n = 5) and 14.1 +/- 1.1% (n = 11), respectively. The effects of hypotonic exposure, glutamine and insulin on the G-/total actin ratio largely occurred within 1 min and persisted for at least 2 h in presence of the respective effectors. After a 120 min exposure to hypotonic media, glutamine or insulin the actin mRNA levels were increased 2.4-, 2.0- and 3.6-fold, respectively. Hypertonic exposure lowered the G-/total actin ratio by only 4.9 +/- 2.5% (n = 4) and increased actin mRNA levels only 1.2-fold. There was a close relationship between glutamine- and hypotonicity-induced cell swelling and the decrease of G-/total actin ratios. The data suggest that cell swelling exerts rapid and marked effects on the state of actin polymerization and increases actin mRNA levels. Thus, cytoskeletal alterations in response to cell swelling may be involved in the regulation of hepatic metabolism by cell volume.

Abstract
It has been previously shown that induction of experimental esophagitis in the cat by esophageal perfusion for 30 minutes with 0.1N HCl for 4 consecutive days results in a significant reduction of in vivo lower esophageal sphincter (LES) resting pressure and in vitro spontaneous tone without affecting esophageal response to KCl. It has also been shown that basal LES tone and LES contraction in response to acetylcholine depend on the release of calcium from intercellular stores, whereas esophageal contraction is mediated by extracellular calcium. The present report shows that esophageal acid perfusion impairs the transduction pathway mediating lower esophageal sphincter contraction in response to acetylcholine through release of intracellular calcium because LES strips and single cells no longer contract in response to acetylcholine if calcium is removed from the physiologic salt solution. This suggests that either the intracellular calcium stores or the release mechanisms that mediate maintenance of tone and contraction in response to acetylcholine may be damaged. However, the acid perfusion has no effect on the acetylcholine response in the esophagus, which is mediated by the influx of extracellular calcium. In the LES circular muscle, the injury results in reduced levels of inositol phosphates without affecting resting levels of 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate or 5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate. The reduced levels of 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate are consistent with impairment in the mechanisms responsible for release of intracellular calcium, although concurrent damage to calcium stores may also occur.

Abstract
Rat liver inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins (1,4,5)P3] 3-kinase was purified in high yield by a three-step procedure reliant upon chromatography on heparin and calmodulin agarose. Purified enzyme was stable in the presence of the detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulphonate (CHAPS) (0.1-0.5%) and the sulphydryl reducing reagent dithiothreitol (DTT). The purified enzyme was activated 2-3-fold by Ca2+ (1 microM) in the presence of calmodulin. Pyrophosphate and heparin were identified as inhibitors of the enzyme.

Abstract
Stimulation of P2 purinergic receptors on A 431 human epidermoid cells with ATP rapidly mobilized intracellular calcium and increased cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). Incorporation of 45Ca2+ was also stimulated by ATP at a rate less than that of [Ca2+]i elevation. Among a number of nucleosides, nucleotides, and their analogues examined, ATP, GTP, UTP, ADP, UDP, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S), and 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) increased both [Ca2+]i and 45Ca2+ influx, whereas others did not; these latter two analogues (ATP gamma S and AMP-PNP) blocked the ATP-stimulated 45Ca2+ influx only very slightly, suggesting that they are not prominent antagonists but rather agonists. A high correlation between [Ca2+]i increase and 45Ca2+ influx, in terms of nucleotide specificity, suggests the involvement of [Ca2+]i in influx of 45Ca2+. It appeared that [Ca2+]i elevated by several nucleotides or nucleotide analogues opened a calcium gate, thus allowing the influx of 45Ca2+. P2 purinergic receptors on these cells had such a characteristic that they were rapidly desensitized. These nucleotides or analogues also affected epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors by inhibiting the EGF binding. The differences of ligand or substrate specificities between P2 purinergic receptors and ecto-nucleotidases indicates that the two components are different molecules involved in different systems.

Abstract
Pool sizes of inositol phosphate species in myo-[3H]inositol-labeled porcine tracheal smooth muscle were determined under three conditions: (a) unstimulated; (b) stimulated with carbachol; (c) atropine-relaxed from a carbachol contraction. In unstimulated muscle, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) content was 14 pmol/100 nmol lipid P1. This is equivalent to a mean [Ins(1,4,5)P3] of about 3 microM (in total cellular water), a level about 30-fold in excess of that required for Ca2+ release from Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Pool sizes of breakdown products of Ins(1,4,5)P3 were relatively small or absent in unstimulated muscle, suggesting that, under this condition, Ins(1,4,5)P3 was sequestered and had limited access to Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and/or 3-kinase. During carbachol stimulation, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 pool did not increase while those of other mono-, di-, and trisphosphate isomers increased over 10-fold. Subsequent atropine-induced relaxation resulted in a partial depletion (40%) of total tissue Ins(1,4,5)P3. Decreases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 were paralleled by decreases in Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(1,3,4)P3. During contraction a portion of total tissue Ins(1,4,5)P3 has access to Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase and 5-phosphatase and to Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive SR, though during antagonist-induced relaxation access to Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive SR for Ca2+ release is restricted. Data are consistent with a mechanism by which a large pool of Ins(1,4,5)P3 present in the unstimulated state in a sequestered compartment can contribute in activated muscle to increases in [Ins(1,4,5)P3] in a nonsequestered compartment, controlling SR Ca2+ release.

Abstract
There is a substantial amount of information which has been obtained concerning the effects of growth factors on [Ca2+]i in proliferating cells. A number of different mitogens are known to induce elevations in [Ca2+]i and some characterization of the Ca2+ response to different classes of mitogens has been obtained. In addition, much is known about whether the Ca2+ response to a particular growth factor occurs as the result of an influx of external Ca2+ or a mobilization of internal Ca2+ stores. In addition, a considerable amount of information is available on the mechanism by which the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive internal Ca2+ store takes up and releases Ca2+. However, there is still a large deficiency in our information concerning other Ca2+ stores in proliferating cells as well as in our knowledge of the mechanisms for regulating Ca2+ entry pathways. Much more data addressing these issues exists for other types of agonist-stimulated cells, and we have discussed much of it in this review article. While the wealth of data in nonproliferating cells provides some indications of what mechanisms might be involved in the growth factor-induced changes in [Ca2+]i, it is clear that much work must be done in proliferating cells to fully understand how external factors such as growth factors control [Ca2+]i. In addition, much work remains to be done in identifying the mechanisms for the internal control of [Ca2+]i as cells move through the cell cycle and in identifying the role that these changes in [Ca2+]i may play throughout the cell cycle.

Abstract
A model of vascular endothelial cell is proposed to describe the mechanisms by which cytosolic calcium (Cai) is modulated and endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) and prostacyclin (PGI2) are released when the cell is stimulated by agonist. The intracellular Ca2+ store of the model cell is comprised of a superficial (sc) and a deep (dc) compartment. The dc Ca2+ content is refilled by the sc whose [Ca2+] is the same as extracellular Ca2+. Inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (IP3) produced by agonist modifies the dc permeability which discharges its Ca2+ to the cytosol. The increase of Cai induces Ca2+ released from the sc. Ca(2+)-activated K+ current hyperpolarises the cell. The raised Cai releases PGI2 in the presence of IP3 while EDRF is released by Cai. The model explains satisfactorily the Ca2+ transient and autacoids production of the aortic endothelial cell without the need of calcium influx from extracellular space. The cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations observed in human endothelial cell from umbilical veins were reproduced by the model. Production of EDRF by the artery due to increase in pressure was also simulated.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) serves as a second messenger for Ca2+ mobilization in a wide variety of cells. InsP3 activates a specific receptor/channel located on an internal Ca2+ store. Because heparin has already been shown to block the action of InsP3, we have looked at the influence of other polyanions (dextran sulfate and polyvinyl sulfate) on the action and metabolism of InsP3 in the bovine adrenal cortex. Polyvinyl sulfate blocked InsP3 binding to adrenal cortex microsomes with a half-maximal efficiency of 250 nM. Scatchard analyses revealed that this effect was not competitive. The Ca2+ releasing activity of InsP3 on the same microsomal preparation was monitored with the fluorescent indicator, fura-2. Polyvinyl sulfate blocked this activity with a half-maximal efficiency of 80 nM. The effect of polyvinyl sulfate could not be overcome by supramaximal doses of InsP3, suggesting a non-competitive inhibitory effect. The activity of InsP3 phosphatase from bovine adrenal cortex microsomes was also studied. Polyvinyl sulfate inhibited the activity of the phosphatase with a half-maximal efficiency of 5 microM. Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed that this effect was not competitive. Polyvinyl sulfate was able to inhibit the activity of InsP3 kinase from bovine adrenal cortex cytosol. The half-maximal dose was 15 nM and the Lineweaver-Burk analysis showed that the inhibition was not competitive. The effect of dextran sulfate 5000 (DS-5000) on these activities was also studied. DS-5000 inhibited in a competitive manner the binding of InsP3 to its receptor (IC50 of 34 microM), the release of Ca2+ induced by InsP3 (IC50 of 6.5 microM) and the activity of InsP3 phosphatase (IC50 of 57 microM).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Prostaglandins (PGs) are autocrine or paracrine hormones that may interact with circulating hormones such as parathyroid hormone (PTH) in bone. We examined the interaction of the PGs, PGF2 alpha, PGE2, and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha with PTH to enhance the rapid, initial transient rise in free cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i) and cAMP levels stimulated by PTH. Pretreatment of UMR-106, MC3T3-E1, and neonatal rat calvarial osteoblast-like cells by PGs resulted in an enhancement of the early transient rise in [Ca2+]i stimulated by PTH. PGF2 alpha was approximately 100 times more potent than PGE2. PGE2 itself was more potent than 6-keto-PGF1 alpha in enhancing PTH-stimulated rise in [Ca2+]i. Near-maximal augmentation was achieved at PGF2 alpha doses of 10 nM and PGE2 of 1 microM. The degree of augmentation in [Ca2+]i by PGF2 alpha was independent of preincubation time. PGF2 alpha pretreatment did not alter the EC50 for the PTH-induced [Ca2+]i increase but only the extent of rise in [Ca2+]i at each dose of PTH. The augmented increase in [Ca2+]i was mostly due to enhanced PTH-mediated release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. PGF2 alpha did not stimulate an increase in PTH receptor number as assessed by [125I]-PTH-related peptide binding. PG pretreatment partially reversed PTH inhibition of cell proliferation, suggesting that an increase in [Ca2+]i may play a role in tempering the anti-proliferative effect of PTH mediated by cAMP. These studies suggest a new mode by which PGs can affect cellular activity.

Abstract
[Asu1,7]Eel-calcitonin, a semisynthetic analog of eel-calcitonin displaying high stability and full biological activity, was used to study the effect of calcitonin on phosphoinositide turnover in cultured anterior pituitary cells. Incubation of cells with [Asu1,7]eel-calcitonin produced a slight, concentration-dependent increase in [3H]inositol monophosphate accumulation, without modifying thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. This effect was correlated with a stimulatory action on prolactin secretion. Conversely, a long-term preincubation with [Asu1,7]eel-calcitonin reduced basal as well as TRH-induced [3H]inositol monophosphate formation. This effect was concentration-dependent, was not due to an increase of cyclic AMP intracellular levels, and was attenuated in the presence of maximally effective concentrations of TRH. Such a long incubation in the presence of [Asu1,7]eel-calcitonin resulted in a marked inhibition of prolactin secretion. The present data confirm and extend previous findings showing an interference of calcitonin with the intracellular cascade consequent to membrane phospholipase C activation and further support a role for calcitonin in the modulation of hormone secretion at the pituitary.

Abstract
The effect of platelet-activating factor (PAF) on inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins[1,4,5]P3) mass, calcium mobilization, and the release of granule enzymes was studied on guinea pig peritoneal eosinophils (EOSs). PAF evoked a concentration-dependent accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 with a drug concentration that elicits 50% of the maximum attainable response (EC50) of 10 nmol/L; the production of this second messenger was maximal at 1 mumol/L of PAF. Kinetic analysis of PAF (1 mumol/L)-induced Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation demonstrated it to be transient with a 3.8-fold increase over resting levels observed at 5 seconds. Thereafter, the level of Ins(1,4,5)P3 declined, returning to vehicle-treated levels 60 seconds after PAF challenge. Lyso-PAF, the inactive precursor and metabolite of PAF, was inactive at all concentrations examined. PAF also induced a rapid, concentration-dependent (EC50, 12 nmol/L) rise in the cytosolic-free calcium concentration ([Ca++]i) in fura 2-AM-loaded EOSs that was transient, peaking after the maximum increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 mass was observed. A highly significant positive correlation was found between the peak increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the peak rise in [Ca++]i. Functionally, PAF evoked a concentration-dependent release of granule constituents from both the small (arylsulfatase B; EC50, 3 nmol/L) and specific (EOS peroxidase; EC50, 2.7 nmol/L) granules that lagged, temporally, behind both Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation and the rise in [Ca++]i. Both the biochemical and functional effects of PAF examined in this study were antagonized by WEB 2086 (300 nmol/L), a selective PAF receptor-blocking drug. It is concluded that stimulus (PAF)-response coupling in guinea pig peritoneal EOSs may involve the receptor-mediated formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and subsequent release of intracellularly stored Ca++. This sequence of events may link PAF receptor activation to Ca(++)-dependent cellular responses, such as degranulation.

Abstract
1) In isolated perfused rat liver, the intracellular ([14C]urea-accessible minus [3H]inulin accessible) water space was determined from the washout profiles of simultaneously infused [3H]inulin and [14C]urea. The washout profile of infused [14C]urea was indistinguishable from that of infused tritiated water. During normotonic perfusions and without hormones or amino acids in influent, the intracellular water space was 548 +/- 10 microliters/g liver wet weight (n = 44). Use of [3H]raffinose instead of [3H]inulin as marker for the extracellular space yielded almost identical values for the intracellular water space (i.e. 98.9 +/- 0.2% of that found with [3H]inulin/[14C]urea). When volume-regulatory K+ fluxes were completed following hypo- and hypertonic exposure of perfused rat livers and a steady state was reached, the intracellular water space was found to be increased and decreased, respectively. The extent of anisotonic exposure was linearly related to the change of intracellular water space. 2) Anisotonicity-, glutamine- and glycine-induced liver mass changes were almost fully explained by the simultaneously occurring alterations of the intracellular water space, indicating that cell volume changes in perfused rat liver under these conditions are not accompanied by significant changes of the extracellular space. Volume-regulatory K+ (plus accompanying anion) efflux following hypotonic perfusion accounted for about 70-85% of regulatory cell volume decrease, which occurred during the first 10 min of hypotonic exposure. 3) Cell volume of isolated hepatocytes was determined as the "hepatocrit" after gentle centrifugation of the cell suspension.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Cell volume plays a decisive role in the regulation of hepatic metabolism. The present study has been performed to test for an effect of insulin and glucagon on liver cell volume. To this end, the effect of these hormones has been studied in isolated perfused rat livers and isolated rat hepatocytes. Insulin leads to rapid stimulation of cellular K+ uptake and increase of cell volume, effects reversed by glucagon or cAMP. The insulin stimulated cellular K+ uptake is significantly decreased in the presence of either loop diuretics (furosemide or bumetanide) or amiloride and is completely inhibited in the presence of both, bumetanide and amiloride. The glucagon stimulated cellular K+ release in the presence of insulin is blunted by K+ channel blocker quinidine. The effects of insulin and glucagon on liver cell volume could participate in the regulation of hepatic metabolism by these hormones.

Abstract
The organization of multicellular organisms depends on cell-cell communication. The signal molecules are often soluble components in the extracellular fluid, but also include odors and light. A large array of surface receptors is involved in the detection of these signals. Signals are then transduced across the plasma membrane so that enzymes at the inner face of the membrane are activated, producing second messengers, which by a complex network of interactions activate target proteins or genes. Vertebrate cells have been used to study hormone and neurotransmitter action, vision, the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Sensory transduction in lower eukaryotes is predominantly used for other functions, notably cell attraction for mating and food seeking. By comparing sensory transduction in lower and higher eukaryotes general principles may be recognized that are found in all organisms and deviations that are present in specialised systems. This may also help to understand the differences between cell types within one organism and the importance of a particular pathway that may or may not be general. In a practical sense, microorganisms have the advantage of their easy genetic manipulation, which is especially advantageous for the identification of the function of large families of signal transducing components.

Abstract
This review assimilates information on the regulation of the metabolism of those inositol phosphates and diacylglycerols that respond to receptor activation. Particular emphasis is placed on the regulation of specific enzymes, the occurrence of isoenzymes, and metabolic compartmentalization; the overall aim is to demonstrate the significance of these activities in relation to the physiological impact of the various cell signalling processes.

Abstract
An inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase purified from human platelets contains two major components, 53 and 36 kDa polypeptides. Each polypeptide expresses Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent enzymatic activity and is phosphorylated by an unidentified protein kinase in the enzyme preparation. The 36-kDa polypeptide may be further phosphorylated on serine residues by protein kinase C to a stoichiometry of 0.8 mole phosphate per mole of protein. Phosphorylation of the 36-kDa component is correlated with inhibition of the kinase activity; the inhibitory effect is dependent upon Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine/diolein and may be blocked by a selective peptide inhibitor of protein kinase C. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C decreases the Vmax of the enzyme from 160 to 28 nmol/mg/min; the Km (0.76 microM) is not altered. These data suggest that protein kinase C may negatively regulate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase activity in the human platelet.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) is rapidly formed in squid photoreceptors in response to light, where it is converted sequentially into inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) and inositol monophosphate (InsP1). All of the InsP3 appears to be degraded to inositol 1,4-bisphosphate via an InsP3-phosphatase, which is characterized in this study. The enzyme is water-soluble and present in the light-transducing distal segments of squid photoreceptors. It has a Km of 50 microM for InsP3, requires Mg++ for its activity, is maximally active at neutral pH, specifically hydrolyses the 5-phosphate and is inhibited by 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. In these respects, InsP3-phosphatase of squid is very similar to the enzymes of other cells. Since no InsP4 or more highly phosphorylated inositols are found in squid photoreceptors, the InsP3-phosphatase may be important in the regulation of InsP3 concentration within these cells.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) is an important second messenger generated from the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate by phospholipase C in response to Ca2(+)-mobilizing stimuli. InsP3 interacts with specific intracellular receptors and triggers the release of sequestered Ca2+ from an intracellular store. We have looked at the influence of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate on the action and metabolism of InsP3 in the bovine adrenal cortex. 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate blocked InsP3 binding to adrenal cortex microsomes with a half-maximal efficiency of 0.5 mM. Scatchard analyses revealed that 2,3-diphosphoglycerate did not change the maximal capacity of the microsomes, but decreased their binding affinity for InsP3. The Ca2(+)-releasing activity of InsP3 on the same microsomal preparation was monitored with the fluorescent indicator, Fura-2. 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate blocked this activity with a half-maximal efficiency of 2 mM. The effect of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate could be overcome by supramaximal doses of InsP3, indicating a competitive inhibitory effect. The activity of InsP3 phosphatase from bovine adrenal cortex microsomes was also studied. 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate inhibited the activity of the phosphatase with a half-maximal efficiency of 0.3 mM. Lineweaver-Burke plots revealed that this effect was competitive. Finally, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate was also able to inhibit the activity of a partially purified preparation of InsP3 kinase from bovine adrenal cortex cytosol. The half-maximal dose was around 10 mM and the Lineweaver-Burke plot showed that the inhibition was competitive. These results show that 2,3-diphosphoglycerate can be considered as a structural analog of InsP3. Its inhibitory effects, however, are not selective enough to use it as an InsP3 protective agent in Ca2(+)-mobilization studies.

Abstract
Carbachol (CCH), serotonin (5HT), divalent ionophore A23187, cAMP, and certain neuropeptides, i.e. substance P (SP), inhibit the initial rate of uptake (influx) of 22Na into isolated chicken villus enterocytes. All these agents also increase cytosolic Ca. However, the increases stimulated by CCH, 5HT, and cAMP are not blocked by chelation of extracellular Ca, whereas those of A23187 and SP are. Only CCH and 5HT stimulate hydrolysis of membrane phosphoinositides to form inositol phosphates. CCH and 5HT also stimulate incorporation of [32P]-PO4 into membrane polyphosphoinositides. These studies suggest that at least three mechanisms exist to increase cytosolic Ca in chicken enterocytes and thereby inhibit Na influx. Certain neurohumoral agents such as SP open a plasma membrane permeability for Ca, permitting extracellular Ca to enter the cell down its electrochemical gradient. These agents do not stimulate phosphatidylinositol breakdown. CCH and 5HT stimulate phosphatidylinositol breakdown and via the formation of inositol trisphosphate release Ca from intracellular stores. A third mechanism exists for cAMP which mobilizes Ca from intracellular stores, but does not involve the metabolism of membrane phosphatidylinositols.

Abstract
1. The Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) independent activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase in macrophages could be separated from the dependent activity by serial column chromatography, gel filtration, Orange A and DEAE-5PW. 2. An InsP3 analog which has an aminobenzoyl group on the 2nd carbon of the inositol ring inhibited the conversion of [3H]InsP3 to [3H]InsP4 (inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate) in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration required for half-maximal inhibition (IC50) with the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was also dependent on the free Ca2+ concentration, as with the dependent activity. 3. These results suggest that a conformational change in the enzyme occurs in response to a change in free Ca2+ concentration, and thus the potency to recognize the InsP3 analog would change, even when the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was used.

Abstract
The influence of extracellular Ca2+ on the mediation of carbachol stimulation in isolated rabbit gastric parietal cells was studied. Removing Ca2+ from extracellular medium caused a 42% decrease of the aminopyrine accumulation due to carbachol with the same EC50 value (approximately 5 microM). A short time depletion in extracellular calcium suppressed the carbachol-dependent Ca2+ influx without affecting Ca2+ release from internal stores (fura-2 measurements). Similarly, the production of inositol phosphates under cholinergic stimulation was reduced by 29%. A rapid increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 was obtained 5 s after carbachol stimulation, and this increase was not changed in Ca2(+)-depleted medium. In contrast, a 20 min incubation with carbachol caused a 50% reduction in both basal and carbachol-stimulated inositol phosphate accumulations. In conclusion, phospholipase C activation, intracellular Ca2+ release and aminopyrine accumulation were sequentially observed following carbachol stimulation of the isolated gastric parietal cell and extracellular calcium contributed to sustain this acid secretory response.

Abstract
A kinetic analysis was undertaken of the inhibition by 5 mM MgATP of Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase in 100,000 g particulate fractions prepared from liver homogenates. The Km for Ins(1,4,5)P3 was increased by 44% (from 16 to 23 microM). The competitive nature of the inhibition was confirmed with a Dixon plot. The effect of MgATP on 5-phosphatase was also studied at physiological concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (i.e. 1.5 microM); the rate of substrate hydrolysis was inhibited by over 30%. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was also hydrolysed by a 3-phosphatase, but this enzyme was unaffected by 5 mM MgATP. Thus, ATP, by differentially affecting Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3- and 5-phosphatase, may increase the flux through the futile cycle that interconverts Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

Abstract
Lithium is an effective drug in the treatment of both manic and depressive episodes of bipolar disorder. Lithium has been shown to block the metabolism of the intracellular second messenger inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate which is involved in the rise in ionic intracellular calcium [( Ca++]i) which triggers neurotransmitter release and other cellular changes in secretory cells. We have measured the effect of lithium on [Ca++]i dynamics in platelets from bipolar patients stabilized with lithium treatment, and from healthy controls. Both resting [Ca++]i and the thrombin stimulated increase in [Ca++]i were higher in bipolar patients than in controls. Lithium added in vitro tended to increase the thrombin-stimulated rise in [Ca++]i. The use of the fluorescent Ca++ probe fura-2 in human platelets provides a useful method to investigate the mechanism of lithium's action in bipolar disorder and to study Ca++ related systems which may be abnormal in bipolar disorders.
