Mechanism of thrombin-induced rise in platelet fructose 2,6-bisphosphate content. Studies using phorbol myristate acetate, dioctanoylglycerol and ionophore A23187.

ABSTRACT: The mechanism by which thrombin increases platelet fructose 2,6-bisphosphate content was investigated. The action of thrombin was mimicked by phorbol 12 myristate 13-acetate and 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol. Ca2+ with A23187 potentiated the action of both these compounds. The action of thrombin required mobilization of intracellular and extracellular Ca2+ and was not decreased by indomethacin. This study suggests that protein kinase C activation and Ca2+ mobilization are both involved in the activation of glycolysis by thrombin.

Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-Acetate-Induced Changes in Chicken Enterocytes.

Project description:Increased intestinal epithelial permeability has been linked to many enteric diseases because it allows easy access of microbial pathogens and toxins into the system. In poultry production, the restrictions in the use of antibiotic growth promoters have increased the chances of birds being susceptible to different enteric diseases. Thus, understanding the mechanisms which compromise intestinal function is pertinent. Based on our previous observation which showed the primary chicken enterocytes in culture undergoing dystrophic changes on treatment with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), we surmised that this model, which appeared to mimic increased intestinal permeability, may help to understand the mechanisms of this problem. As genomic and proteomic changes are associated with many physiological and pathological problems, we were interested to find whether certain proteomic changes underlie the morphological alterations in the enterocytes induced by PMA. We exposed primary enterocyte cultures to a sub-lethal concentration of PMA, extracted the proteins, and analyzed by mass spectrometry for differentially regulated proteins. Our results showed that PMA affected several biological processes which negatively affected their energy metabolism, nuclear activities, and differentially regulated the levels of several stress proteins, chaperon, cytoskeletal, and signal transduction proteins that appear to be relevant in the cause of enterocyte dystrophy. Phorbol myristate acetate-affected signal transduction activities also raise the possibilities of their increased susceptibility to pathogens. The changes in enterocyte integrity can make intestine vulnerable to invasion by microbial pathogens and disrupt gut homeostasis.

Neutrophil Activated by the Famous and Potent PMA (Phorbol Myristate Acetate).

Project description:This review will briefly outline the major signaling pathways in PMA-activated neutrophils. PMA is widely used to understand neutrophil pathways and formation of NETs. PMA activates PKC; however, we highlight some isoforms that contribute to specific functions. PKC α, β and δ contribute to ROS production while PKC βII and PKC ζ are involved in cytoskeleton remodeling. Actin polymerization is important for the chemotaxis of neutrophils and its remodeling is connected to ROS balance. We suggest that, although ROS and production of NETs are usually observed together in PMA-activated neutrophils, there might be a regulatory mechanism balancing both. Interestingly, we suggest that serine proteases might determine the PAD4 action. PAD4 could be responsible for the activation of the NF-κB pathway that leads to IL-1β release, triggering the cleavage of gasdermin D by serine proteases such as elastase, leading to pore formation contributing to release of NETs. On the other hand, when serine proteases are inhibited, NETs are formed by citrullination through the PAD4 pathway. This review puts together results from the last 31 years of research on the effects of PMA on the neutrophil and proposes new insights on their interpretation.

14-3-3s regulate fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels by binding to PKB-phosphorylated cardiac fructose-2,6-bisphosphate kinase/phosphatase.

Project description:The cardiac isoform of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/ fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK-2), regulator of the glycolysis-stimulating fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, was among human HeLa cell proteins that were eluted from a 14-3-3 affinity column using the phosphopeptide ARAApSAPA. Tryptic mass fingerprinting and phospho-specific antibodies showed that Ser466 and Ser483 of 14-3-3-affinity-purified PFK-2 were phosphorylated. 14-3-3 binding was abolished by selectively dephosphorylating Ser483, and 14-3-3 binding was restored when both Ser466 and Ser483 were phosphorylated with PKB, but not when Ser466 alone was phosphorylated by AMPK. Furthermore, the phosphopeptide RNYpS(483)VGS blocked binding of PFK-2 to 14-3-3s. These data indicate that 14-3-3s bind to phosphorylated Ser483. When HeLa cells expressing HA-tagged PFK-2 were co-transfected with active PKB or stimulated with IGF-1, HA-PFK-2 was phosphorylated and bound to 14-3-3s. The response to IGF-1 was abolished by PI 3-kinase inhibitors. In addition, IGF-1 promoted the binding of endogenous PFK-2 to 14-3-3s. When cells were transduced with penetratin-linked AARAApSAPA, we found that this reagent bound specifically to 14-3-3s, blocked the IGF-1-induced binding of HA-PFK-2 to 14-3-3s, and completely inhibited the IGF-1-induced increase in cellular fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. These findings suggest that PKB-dependent binding of 14-3-3s to phospho-Ser483 of cardiac PFK-2 mediates the stimulation of glycolysis by growth factor.

Effects of PMA (PHORBOL-12-MYRISTATE-13-ACETATE) on the Developing Rodent Brain.

Project description:Perinatal infections have a negative impact on brain development. However, the underlying mechanisms leading to neurological impairment are not completely understood and reliable models of inflammation are urgently needed. Using phorbol-myristate-acetate as an activator of inflammation, we investigated the effect on the developing rodent brain. Neonatal rats and mice deficient in IL-18 or IRAK-4 were exposed to PMA. Brains were assessed for regulation of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and cell death 24 hrs, 7 and 14 days after treatment. PMA induced an inflammatory response and caused widespread neurodegeneration in the brains of 3- and 7-day-old rats. In contrast, 14-day-old rats were resistant to the neurotoxic effect of PMA. Histological evaluation at the age of 14 and 21 days revealed a destruction of the cortical microstructure with decreased numerical density of neuronal cells. Mice deficient in IL-18 or IRAK-4 were protected against PMA induced brain injury. PMA treatment during a vulnerable period can alter brain development. IL-18 and IRAK-4 appear to be important for the development of PMA induced injury.

Comparison of diglyceride production from choline-containing phosphoglycerides in human neutrophils stimulated with N-formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine, ionophore A23187 or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate.

Project description:The turnover of choline-containing phosphoglycerides (PC) in response to agonist stimulation is well documented in human neutrophils. We have now compared the enzymic pathways of N-formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine (fMLP)-, A23187- and phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced diglyceride (DG) and phosphatidic acid (PA) generation in these cells. In order to distinguish between phospholipase C- and D-mediated PC breakdown, human neutrophils were radiolabelled with 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine and stimulated in the presence of ethanol or propranolol. The addition of 0.5% ethanol to the incubation mixture resulted in the production of phosphatidylethanol, indicative of phospholipase D activation, in response to all three stimuli. Concomitant with phosphatidylethanol formation was a partial block of PA production. The production of DG was also partially blocked by addition of ethanol. Propranolol (200 microM) was also used to assess the contributions of phospholipases C and D toward DG generation. Inhibition of PA phosphohydrolase by propranolol resulted in the complete abolition of DG generation when neutrophils were stimulated with fMLP. In contrast, propranolol only partially inhibited DG generation in response to A23187 and PMA. These results suggested that DG production in response to fMLP stimulation is mediated via the activation of phospholipase D, whereas A23187- or PMA-induced DG generation may involve more than one pathway. However, examination of the water-soluble choline metabolites produced indicated that phospholipase D was responsible for the production of PA and DG in response to all three stimuli.

Insulin regulation of pyruvate kinase activity in cultured rat hepatocytes, in the presence of vasopressin, ionophore A23187 or 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate.

Project description:The short-term interactions of insulin and vasopressin on pyruvate kinase (PK) activity were studied in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. (1) Vasopressin inhibited PK activity by approx. 30% within 15 s, but activity returned to control values by 5 min. The transient inhibition by vasopressin was mimicked by either 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA) or ionophore A23187. (2) Insulin alone transiently inhibited PK activity at 1 min, but stimulated PK activity at 5 and 15 min. (3) Insulin completely antagonized the early inhibition by vasopressin, PMA or A23187 of PK activity at 15 s. (4) Insulin inhibited PK activity in the presence of vasopressin, PMA or A23187 at 5 min. (5) 8-Bromo cyclic AMP inhibited PK activity within 15 s, and this inhibition was maintained for at least 5 min. Insulin did not antagonized the inhibition by the cyclic AMP analogue. These results show that insulin under appropriate conditions can act as an inhibitor or activator of PK.

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate in rat erythrocytes. Inhibition of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate synthesis and measurement by glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate.

Project description:The concentration of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate found in freshly isolated erythrocytes was below the limit of detection (20 pmol/ml of packed cells). However, it increased to about 250 pmol/ml of cells when erythrocytes were incubated with glucose at pH 6.9, but not at pH 7.4 or 8.2. This could be explained by variations in the content of glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate, which was found to inhibit 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase, the enzyme responsible for fructose 2,6-bisphosphate synthesis. Glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate was also found to inhibit the potato enzyme (pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase) used for the measurement of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate.

Phorbol myristate acetate, but not CD40L, induces the differentiation of CLL B cells into Ab-secreting cells.

Project description:In this study, we investigated the capacity of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells to undergo terminal differentiation into Ig-secreting plasma cells in T cell-independent and T cell-dependent responses. We used a two-step model involving stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and CD40L, together with cytokines (PMA/c and CD40L/c), for 7 days. We describe immunophenotypic modifications, changes in the levels of mRNA and protein for transcription factors and morphological and functional events occurring during the differentiation of CLL B cells into antibody-secreting cells (ASCs). The induction of differentiation differed significantly between the CD40L/c and PMA/c culture systems. The PMA/c culture system allowed CLL B cells to differentiate into IgM-secreting cells with an immunophenotype and molecular profile resembling those of preplasmablasts. By contrast, CD40L/c-stimulated cells had a phenotype and morphology similar to those of activated B cells and resembling those of the CLL B cells residing in the lymph node and bone marrow. These data suggest that the CLL B cells are not frozen permanently at a stage of differentiation and are able to differentiate into ASCs as appropriate stimulation are provided. The data presented here raise questions about the molecular processes and stimulation required for CLL B-cell differentiation and about the inability of CD40 ligand to induce differentiation of the CLL B cells.

<i>Piper sarmentosum</i> Roxb. Inhibits Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Activity in Phorbol 12-Myristate-13-Acetate-Induced Endothelial Cells.

Project description:Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Piper sarmentosum Roxb., an herb known for its antihypertensive effect, lacks a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism underlying its antihypertensive action. This study aimed to elucidate the antihypertensive mechanism of aqueous extract of P. sarmentosum leaves (AEPS) via its modulation of the ACE pathway in phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). HUVECs were divided into five groups: control, treatment with 200 µg/mL AEPS, induction 200 nM PMA, concomitant treatment with 200 nM PMA and 200 µg/mL AEPS, and treatment with 200 nM PMA and 0.06 μM captopril. Subsequently, ACE mRNA expression, protein level and activity, angiotensin II (Ang II) levels, and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) and angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R) mRNA expression in HUVECs were determined. AEPS successfully inhibited ACE mRNA expression, protein and activity, and angiotensin II levels in PMA-induced HUVECs. Additionally, AT1R expression was downregulated, whereas AT2R expression was upregulated. In conclusion, AEPS reduces the levels of ACE mRNA, protein and activity, Ang II, and AT1R expression in PMA-induced HUVECs. Thus, AEPS has the potential to be developed as an ACE inhibitor in the future.
