The relationship between cytosolic Ca2+, sn-1,2-diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate elevation in platelet-activating-factor-stimulated rabbit platelets. Influence of protein kinase C on production of signal molecules.

ABSTRACT: The temporal and dose-response relationships of platelet-activating-factor (PAF)-induced changes in the concentrations of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), Ins(1,4,5)P3 and 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) were examined. In addition, phosphorylation of protein kinase C (PKC) substrate (40-47 kDa protein) was determined. In high-dose PAF-activated platelets, all three signal molecules increased rapidly and transiently, with the peak Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration preceding maximal elevation of [Ca2+]i by 5 s. In low-dose PAF-activated platelets there were large increases in [Ca2+]i and dense-granule release, without any increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 and DAG or 40-47 kDa protein phosphorylation. Staurosporine, a non-specific PKC inhibitor, produced enhanced elevations in the concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3, DAG and thromboxane B2, and the duration of the Ca2+ signal in platelets stimulated with a high dose, but not a low dose, of PAF. These results suggest there are both phospholipase C-dependent and -independent changes in Ca2+ homoeostasis. Endogenously activated PKC regulates the formation of signal molecules.

Mass measurement of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol in bombesin-stimulated Swiss 3T3 mouse fibroblasts.

Project description:Two specific and selective assays were used to measure changes in the mass of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol in bombesin-stimulated Swiss 3T3 cells. The results demonstrate that the increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 was extremely rapid, but transient, returning to basal levels by 30 s. In contrast, the increase in sn-1,2-diacylglycerol was biphasic: the first phase mirrored the transient Ins(1,4,5)P3 response, whereas the second phase was sustained and occurred in the absence of elevated Ins(1,4,5)P3. The possible source of the second phase of diacylglycerol is discussed.

Mechanistic basis of bell-shaped dependence of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor gating on cytosolic calcium.

Project description:The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptor (IP(3)R) is an intracellular Ca(2+) release channel, and its opening is controlled by IP(3) and Ca(2+). A single IP(3) binding site and multiple Ca(2+) binding sites exist on single subunits, but the precise nature of the interplay between these two ligands in regulating biphasic dependence of channel activity on cytosolic Ca(2+) is unknown. In this study, we visualized conformational changes in IP(3)R evoked by various concentrations of ligands by using the FRET between two fluorescent proteins fused to the N terminus of individual subunits. IP(3) and Ca(2+) have opposite effects on the FRET signal change, but the combined effect of these ligands is not a simple summative response. The bell-shaped Ca(2+) dependence of FRET efficiency was observed after the subtraction of the component corresponding to the FRET change evoked by Ca(2+) alone from the FRET changes evoked by both ligands together. A mutant IP(3)R containing a single amino acid substitution at K508, which is critical for IP(3) binding, did not exhibit this bell-shaped Ca(2+) dependence of the subtracted FRET efficiency. Mutation at E2100, which is known as a Ca(2+) sensor, resulted in ?10-fold reduction in the Ca(2+) dependence of the subtracted signal. These results suggest that the subtracted FRET signal reflects IP(3)R activity. We propose a five-state model, which implements a dual-ligand competition response without complex allosteric regulation of Ca(2+) binding affinity, as the mechanism underlying the IP(3)-dependent regulation of the bell-shaped relationship between the IP(3)R activity and cytosolic Ca(2+).

Selective determinants of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and adenophostin A interactions with type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors.

Project description:Adenophostin A (AdA) is a potent agonist of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3) R). AdA shares with IP(3) the essential features of all IP(3) R agonists, namely structures equivalent to the 4,5-bisphosphate and 6-hydroxyl of IP(3) , but the basis of its increased affinity is unclear. Hitherto, the 2'-phosphate of AdA has been thought to provide a supra-optimal mimic of the 1-phosphate of IP(3) .We examined the structural determinants of AdA binding to type 1 IP(3) R (IP(3) R1). Chemical synthesis and mutational analysis of IP(3) R1 were combined with (3) H-IP(3) binding to full-length IP(3) R1 and its N-terminal fragments, and Ca(2+) release assays from recombinant IP(3) R1 expressed in DT40 cells.Adenophostin A is at least 12-fold more potent than IP(3) in functional assays, and the IP(3) -binding core (IBC, residues 224-604 of IP(3) R1) is sufficient for this high-affinity binding of AdA. Removal of the 2'-phosphate from AdA (to give 2'-dephospho-AdA) had significantly lesser effects on its affinity for the IBC than did removal of the 1-phosphate from IP(3) (to give inositol 4,5-bisphosphate). Mutation of the only residue (R568) that interacts directly with the 1-phosphate of IP(3) decreased similarly (by ~30-fold) the affinity for IP(3) and AdA, but mutating R504, which has been proposed to form a cation-? interaction with the adenine of AdA, more profoundly reduced the affinity of IP(3) R for AdA (353-fold) than for IP(3) (13-fold).The 2'-phosphate of AdA is not a major determinant of its high affinity. R504 in the receptor, most likely via a cation-? interaction, contributes specifically to AdA binding.

Regulation of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol second-messenger formation in thrombin-stimulated human platelets. Potentiation by protein kinase C inhibitors.

Project description:Stimulation of platelets with thrombin leads to rapid degradation of inositol phospholipids, generation of diacylglycerol (DAG) and subsequent activation of protein kinase C (PKC). Previous studies indicated that prior activation of PKC with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) desensitizes platelets to thrombin stimulation, as indicated by a decreased production of inositol phosphates and decreased Ca2+ mobilization. This suggests that PKC activation generates negative-feedback signals, which limit the phosphoinositide response. To test this hypothesis further, we examined the effects of PKC activators and inhibitors on thrombin-stimulated DAG mass formation in platelets. Pretreatment with PMA abolishes thrombin-stimulated DAG formation (50% inhibition at 60 nM). Pretreatment of platelets with the PKC inhibitors K252a or staurosporine potentiates DAG production in response to thrombin (3-4-fold) when using concentrations required to inhibit platelet PKC (1-10 microM). K252a does not inhibit phosphorylation of endogenous DAG or phosphorylation of a cell-permeant DAG in unstimulated platelets, indicating that DAG over-production is not due to inhibition of DAG kinase. Sphingosine, a PKC inhibitor with a different mechanism of action, also potentiates DAG formation in response to thrombin. Several lines of evidence indicate that DAG formation under the conditions employed occurs predominantly by phosphoinositide (and not phosphatidylcholine) hydrolysis: (1) PMA alone does not elicit DAG formation, but inhibits agonist-stimulated DAG formation; (2) thrombin-stimulated DAG formation is inhibited by neomycin (1-10 mM) but not by the phosphatidate phosphohydrolase inhibitor propranolol; and (3) no metabolism of radiolabelled phosphatidylcholine was observed upon stimulation by thrombin or PMA. These data provide strong support for a role of PKC in limiting the extent of platelet phosphoinositide hydrolysis.

The diacylglycerol analogue, 1,2-sn-dioctanoylglycerol, induces an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ and cytosolic acidification of T lymphocytes through a protein kinase C-independent process.

Project description:In this paper, we demonstrate that low concentrations (0.5-2.5 microM) of 1,2-sn-dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8), a potent diacylglycerol used in many previous studies to probe the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in cell activation, cause cytosolic alkalinization of human, mouse and pig T lymphocytes through PKC-mediated activation of the Na+/H+ antiport. However, at higher concentrations (greater than or equal to 12.5 microM), the effect on cytosolic pH (pHi) is reversed, resulting in a marked cytosolic acidification, followed by a gradual return of pHi to baseline values. DiC8 also induces marked changes in cytosolic free calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i), initially by releasing calcium from intracellular stores, followed by a net transmembrane influx of calcium. The DiC8-induced cytosolic acidification, the resultant return to baseline pH and the increase in [Ca2+]i are independent of activation of PKC. Unlike many other agents which increase [Ca2+]i, DiC8 does not induce phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis with the resultant production of inositol phosphates. Other compounds known to activate PKC, including the closely related diacylglycerol analogues, 1,2-sn-dihexanoylglycerol and 1,2-sn-didecanoylglycerol, phorbol esters and mezerein, did not induce changes in [Ca2+]i or cytosolic acidification in T lymphocytes. Thus the action of DiC8 on intact lymphocytes is different from that of phorbol esters and other diacylglycerols, and is specific to the length of the acyl chains. Because changes in [Ca2+]i are often associated with cell proliferation and cell differentiation, some effects of DiC8 on intact cells may be a consequence of changes in [Ca2+]i.

Thrombin induces a biphasic 1,2-diacylglycerol production in human platelets.

Project description:The 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) mass content was measured in thrombin-stimulated human platelets. Thrombin stimulates a biphasic accumulation of DAG, with an early phase reaching a peak at 10 s and a later phase reaching a peak at 2-3 min. The time course of first-phase DAG production corresponded well to that of Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation, which was rapid and transient. The second phase of DAG accumulation occurred after the level of Ins(1,4,5)P3 returned to nearly basal. Thrombin stimulated the decrease in PtdIns and phosphatidylcholine contents. The source of second-phase DAG was examined in platelets prelabelled with three radioactive fatty acids, i.e. arachidonic, palmitic and myristic. Thrombin stimulated the increase in radioactivity of DAG with decline of PtdIns in platelets labelled with [3H]arachidonic acid or [3H]palmitic acid, in which PtdIns was considerably labelled. In contrast, significant accumulation of [3H]DAG was not observed in [3H]myristic acid-labelled platelets, in which PtdIns was poorly labelled. In platelets prelabelled with [3H]inositol, an increase in InsP in response to thrombin was seen for more than 5 min. In contrast, upon stimulation, significant increases in [3H]phosphocholine and [3H]choline were not observed in [methyl-3H]choline-labelled platelets. Thrombin induced a small production of phosphatidylethanol, when ethanol was present during stimulation. However, the formation of DAG and phosphatidic acid was not significantly affected by ethanol. These results suggest that thrombin stimulates a biphasic accumulation of DAG, initially from PtdInsP2 and later from PtdIns in human platelets.

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (Itpr) gene family in Xenopus: identification of type 2 and type 3 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor subtypes.

Project description:Studies in the Xenopus model system have provided considerable insight into the developmental role of intracellular Ca2+ signals produced by activation of IP3Rs (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors). However, unlike mammalian systems where three IP3R subtypes have been well characterized, our molecular understanding of the IP3Rs that underpin Ca2+ signalling during Xenopus embryogenesis relate solely to the original characterization of the 'Xenopus IP3R' cloned and purified from Xenopus laevis oocytes several years ago. In the present study, we have identified Xenopus type 2 and type 3 IP3Rs and report the full-length sequence, genomic architecture and developmental expression profile of these additional IP3R subtypes. In the light of the emerging genomic resources and opportunities for genetic manipulation in the diploid frog Xenopus tropicalis, these data will facilitate manipulations to resolve the contribution of IP3R diversity in Ca2+ signalling events observed during vertebrate development.

Formation and metabolism of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in human platelets.

Project description:1. myo-[3H]Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], when added to lysed platelets, was rapidly converted into [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4], which was in turn converted into [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3]. This result demonstrates that platelets have the same metabolic pathways for interconversion of inositol polyphosphates that are found in other cells. 2. Labelling of platelets with [32P]Pi, followed by h.p.l.c., was used to measure thrombin-induced changes in the three inositol polyphosphates. Interfering compounds were removed by a combination of enzymic and non-enzymic techniques. 3. Ins(1,4,5)P3 was formed rapidly, and reached a maximum at about 4 s. It was also rapidly degraded, and was no longer detectable after 30-60 s. 4. Formation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was almost as rapid as that of Ins(1,4,5)P3, and it remained detectable for a longer time. 5. Ins(1,3,4)P3 was formed after an initial lag, and this isomer reached its maximum, which was 10-fold higher than that of Ins(1,4,5)P3, at 30 s. 6. Comparison of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration as measured with fura-2 indicates that agents other than Ins(1,4,5)P3 are responsible for the sustained maintenance of a high concentration of intracellular Ca2+. It is proposed that either Ins(1,3,4)P3 or Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 may also be Ca2+-mobilizing agents.

Short-term overnutrition induces white adipose tissue insulin resistance through sn-1,2-diacylglycerol/PKCε/insulin receptor Thr1160 phosphorylation.

Project description:White adipose tissue (WAT) insulin action has critical anabolic function and is dysregulated in overnutrition. However, the mechanism of short-term high-fat diet-induced (HFD-induced) WAT insulin resistance (IR) is poorly understood. Based on recent evidences, we hypothesize that a short-term HFD causes WAT IR through plasma membrane (PM) sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (sn-1,2-DAG) accumulation, which promotes protein kinase C-ε (PKCε) activation to impair insulin signaling by phosphorylating insulin receptor (Insr) Thr1160. To test this hypothesis, we assessed WAT insulin action in 7-day HFD-fed versus regular chow diet-fed rats during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. HFD feeding caused WAT IR, reflected by impaired insulin-mediated WAT glucose uptake and lipolysis suppression. These changes were specifically associated with PM sn-1,2-DAG accumulation, higher PKCε activation, and impaired insulin-stimulated Insr Tyr1162 phosphorylation. In order to examine the role of Insr Thr1160 phosphorylation in mediating lipid-induced WAT IR, we examined these same parameters in InsrT1150A mice (mouse homolog for human Thr1160) and found that HFD feeding induced WAT IR in WT control mice but not in InsrT1150A mice. Taken together, these data demonstrate the importance of the PM sn-1,2-DAG/PKCε/Insr Thr1160 phosphorylation pathway in mediating lipid-induced WAT IR and represent a potential therapeutic target to improve WAT insulin sensitivity.

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate Receptor Mutations associated with Human Disease.

Project description:Calcium release into the cytosol via the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) calcium channel is important for a variety of cellular processes. As a result, impairment or inhibition of this release can result in disease. Recently, mutations in all four domains of the IP3R have been suggested to cause diseases such as ataxia, cancer, and anhidrosis; however, most of these mutations have not been functionally characterized. In this review we summarize the reported mutations, as well as the associated symptoms. Additionally, we use clues from transgenic animals, receptor stoichiometry, and domain location of mutations to speculate on the effects of individual mutations on receptor structure and function and the overall mechanism of disease.
