Differential down-regulation of protein kinase C selectively affects IgE-dependent exocytosis and inositol trisphosphate formation.

ABSTRACT: Short-term treatment of rat basophilic leukaemia (RBL-2H3) cells with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) activates protein kinase C (PKC) and results in the inhibition of the IgE-dependent formation of inositol phosphates, but in the potentiation of serotonin secretion. Long-term treatment with TPA, which depletes the cells of their endogenous PKC, eliminates both Ca2(+)-ionophore- and TPA- as well as IgE-dependent secretion, but it potentiates by 1.7-fold IgE-induced inositol phosphate formation. Taken together, these observations strongly suggest that the dual actions of TPA on IgE-dependent responses are both mediated by PKC. The opposing effects of TPA are differentially down-regulated. Following TPA treatment, the rate by which the cells lose their ability to undergo exocytosis is faster than the rate at which inhibition of inositol phosphates formation is relieved and their production potentiated. In addition, both processes show different sensitivities to inhibitors of PKC action. Whereas IgE-dependent secretion is completely blocked by the PKC inhibitors K252a, H-7 and sphingosine [concns. causing 50% inhibition (IC50 values) = 25 ng/ml 80 microns and 30 microns respectively], these inhibitors do not relieve inhibition of inositol phosphate formation by TPA, nor do they potentiate this response. These results may imply that the bidirectional control exerted by PKC on IgE-dependent responses is mediated by its different isoenzymes.

Project description:Osteoclast activity is central to balanced bone turnover to maintain normal bone mass. A specialized osteoclast attachment to bone localizes acid secretion to remove bone mineral; in some cases, attachment is functionally impaired despite normal attachment proteins. The inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-1 (IP3R1) is an intracellular calcium channel required for regulation of reversible osteoclast attachment by nitric oxide (NO), an important regulator of both normal and pathological bone degradation. In studies using human osteoclasts produced in vitro, we found that IP3R1 binds an endosomal isoform of the IP3R-associated cGMP-dependent kinase substrate (IRAG). IRAG is a substrate of cGMP-dependent kinase-1 (PKG1) and binds the PKG1 isoform PKG1β, which was the predominant form of PKG1 in human osteoclasts. Western blots of IRAG were consistent with NO-dependent serine phosphorylation of IRAG. An additional effect of PKG1β activity in osteoclasts was disassociation of IP3R1-IRAG complexes, as shown by analysis of IP3R1 complexes and by localization of the proteins within cells. IP3R1-IRAG complexes were stabilized by PKG or Src antagonists, Src activity being a requirement for IP3R1 calcium release downstream of PKG. IP3R1-mediated calcium release regulates cellular detachment in part through the calcium-dependent proteinase μ-calpain. In osteoclasts with IRAG suppressed by siRNA, activity of μ-calpain was increased relative to cells with normal IRAG, and regulation of μ-calpain by NO was lost. Furthermore, cells deficient in IRAG detached easily from substrate and had smaller attached diameters and randomly distributed podosomes, although IRAG knockdown did not affect cell viability. Our results indicate that IRAG is required for PKG1β-regulated cyclic calcium release during motility, and that disruption of the IP3R1-IRAG calcium regulation system is a novel cause of dysfunctional osteoclasts unrelated to defects in attachment proteins or acid secretion.
