The bryostatin 1 A-ring acetate is not the critical determinant for antagonism of phorbol ester-induced biological responses.

ABSTRACT: The contribution of the A-ring C(7) acetate to the function of bryostatin 1 has been investigated through synthesis and biological evaluation of an analogue incorporating this feature into the bryopyran core structure. No enhanced binding affinity for protein kinase C (PKC) was observed, relative to previously characterized analogues lacking the C(7) acetate. Functional assays showed biological responses characteristic of those induced by the phorbol ester PMA and distinctly different from those observed with bryostatin 1.

Project description:Collagenase-isolated rat islets were labelled for 2 h in myo-[2-3H]inositol solution supplemented with 2.75 mM-glucose. The phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 0.1 or 1 microM) was also present in some experiments. After labelling, islets were washed and then perifused in 2.75 mM-glucose to establish basal [3H]inositol-efflux and insulin-secretory rates. Subsequently, the responses of these islets to stimulation with various agonists were assessed. Inositol phosphate accumulation was measured at the termination of the perifusion. In separate experiments, the cellular location of protein kinase C (PKC) after PMA pretreatment was measured by quantitative immunoblotting of membrane and cytosolic fractions. The following observations were made. (1) Labelling in 0.1-1 microM-PMA had no deleterious effect on total [3H]inositol incorporation during the 2 h labelling period. However, islets labelled for 2 h in 1 microM-PMA were unable to respond, in terms of increases in insulin release, to a 1 microM-PMA stimulus during the subsequent perifusion. (2) As compared with the responses of control islets labelled in 2.75 mM-glucose alone, islets labelled in the additional presence of 1 microM-PMA displayed a significant impairment in phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis, but an enhancement of both first-and second-phase insulin secretion, in response to subsequent 20 mM-glucose stimulation. (3) Decreasing extracellular Ca2+ level to 0.1 mM and including the Ca(2+)-channel antagonist nitrendipine (0.5 microM) along with 1 microM-PMA during the [3H]inositol-labelling period did not alter the response of the islets to the subsequent addition of 20 mM-glucose. Glucose-induced PI hydrolysis was still inhibited and 20 mM-glucose-induced insulin release was still enhanced. (4) A markedly amplified and sustained insulin-secretory response to 200 microM-tolbutamide in the presence of 2.75 mM-glucose was also obtained from 1 microM-PMA-pretreated islets. This contrasts sharply with the small and transient response to tolbutamide noted in control islets. (5) When present only during the perifusion phase of the experiments, nitrendipine (0.5 microM) abolished the amplified insulin-secretory responses to both 20 mM-glucose and 200 microM-tolbutamide noted in PMA-pretreated islets. (6) Prior labelling in 1 microM-PMA dramatically amplified the insulinotropic effect of 25 mM-K+ or 5 microM-A23187 stimulation. The amplified insulin-secretory response to K+, but not to A23187, was abolished by inclusion of nitrendipine during the perifusion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
