Inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate is not a product of muscarinic receptor-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis in rat parotid glands.

ABSTRACT: We have employed a neutral-pH extraction technique to look for inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate derivatives in [3H]inositol-labelled parotid gland slices stimulated with carbachol. The incubations were terminated by adding cold chloroform/methanol (1:2, v/v), the samples were dried under vacuum and inositol phosphates were extracted from the dried residues by phenol/chloroform/water partitioning. Water-soluble inositol metabolites were separated by h.p.l.c. at pH 3.7. 32P-labelled inositol phosphate standards (inositol 1-phosphate, inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate) were quantitively recovered through both extraction and chromatography steps. Treatment of inositol cyclic phosphate standards with 5% (w/v) HClO4 for 10 min prior to chromatography resulted in formation of the expected non-cyclic compounds. [3H]Inositol 1-phosphate and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate were both present in parotid gland slices and both increased during stimulation with 1 mM-carbachol. There was no evidence for significant quantities of [3H]inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate or [3H]inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate in control or carbachol-stimulated glands. Parotid gland homogenates rapidly converted inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to inositol bisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate, but metabolism of the inositol cyclic trisphosphate was much slower. The results suggest that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, but not inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate, is the water-soluble product of muscarinic receptor-stimulated phospholipase C in rat parotid glands.

Project description:Kv7 K(+)-channel subunits differ in their apparent affinity for PIP(2) and are differentially expressed in nerve, muscle, and epithelia in accord with their physiological roles in those tissues. To investigate how PIP(2) affinity affects the response to physiological stimuli such as receptor stimulation, we exposed homomeric and heteromeric Kv7.2, 7.3, and 7.4 channels to a range of concentrations of the muscarinic receptor agonist oxotremorine-M (oxo-M) in a heterologous expression system. Activation of M(1) receptors by oxo-M leads to PIP(2) depletion through G(q) and phospholipase C (PLC). Chinese hamster ovary cells were transiently transfected with Kv7 subunits and M(1) receptors and studied under perforated-patch voltage clamp. For Kv7.2/7.3 heteromers, the EC(50) for current suppression was 0.44 +/- 0.08 microM, and the maximal inhibition (Inhib(max)) was 74 +/- 3% (n = 5-7). When tonic PIP(2) abundance was increased by overexpression of PIP 5-kinase, the EC(50) was shifted threefold to the right (1.2 +/- 0.1 microM), but without a significant change in Inhib(max) (73 +/- 4%, n = 5). To investigate the muscarinic sensitivity of Kv7.3 homomers, we used the A315T pore mutant (Kv7.3(T)) that increases whole-cell currents by 30-fold without any change in apparent PIP(2) affinity. Kv7.3(T) currents had a slightly right-shifted EC(50) as compared with Kv7.2/7.3 heteromers (1.0 +/- 0.8 microM) and a strongly reduced Inhib(max) (39 +/- 3%). In contrast, the dose-response curve of homomeric Kv7.4 channels was shifted considerably to the left (66 +/- 8 nM), and Inhib(max) was slightly increased (81 +/- 6%, n = 3-4). We then studied several Kv7.2 mutants with altered apparent affinities for PIP(2) by coexpressing them with Kv7.3(T) subunits to boost current amplitudes. For the lower affinity (Kv7.2 (R463Q)/Kv7.3(T)) or higher affinity (Kv7.2 (R463E)/Kv7.3(T)) channels, the EC(50) and Inhib(max) were similar to Kv7.4 or Kv7.3(T) homomers (0.12 +/- 0.08 microM and 79 +/- 6% [n = 3-4] and 0.58 +/- 0.07 microM and 27 +/- 3% [n = 3-4], respectively). The very low-affinity Kv7.2 (R452E, R459E, and R461E) triple mutant was also coexpressed with Kv7.3(T). The resulting heteromer displayed a very low EC(50) for inhibition (32 +/- 8 nM) and a slightly increased Inhib(max) (83 +/- 3%, n = 3-4). We then constructed a cellular model that incorporates PLC activation by oxo-M, PIP(2) hydrolysis, PIP(2) binding to Kv7-channel subunits, and K(+) current through Kv7 tetramers. We were able to fully reproduce our data and extract a consistent set of PIP(2) affinities.
