Activation of V1-receptors by vasopressin stimulates inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and arachidonate metabolism in human platelets.

ABSTRACT: The activation of platelet V1-receptors by vasopressin (0.01-1 microM) induces the rapid formation of inositol phosphates, 1,2-diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid, indicating inositol phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase C. Vasopressin immediately induces the formation of inositol bisphosphate and inositol trisphosphate. Accumulation of inositol 1-monophosphate and inositol 4-monophosphate occurs later after a time lag of 15 s. Low concentrations (10-100 nM) of vasopressin only activate phospholipase C, whereas high concentrations (1 microM) induce activation of phospholipase C and subsequently the production of arachidonate metabolites. Cyclo-oxygenase metabolites are associated with further activation of phospholipase C, release reaction and irreversible platelet aggregation. Vasopressin requires for its action extracellular Mg2+, but not Ca2+. The described platelet changes are not induced by 1-desamino-[8-D-arginine]vasopressin, a V2-receptor agonist, and are blocked by a specific V1-receptor antagonist. The results indicate that platelets possess a V1-receptor that is coupled to polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis by phospholipase C, leading to the formation of 1,2-diacylglycerol and inositol trisphosphate. Those compounds may act as second messengers for platelet responses induced by vasopressin, whereas endoperoxides and thromboxane A2 stimulated by vasopressin may serve as amplifiers for platelet activation.

Lack of V1 vasopressin receptors in rabbit hepatocytes.

Project description:Vasopressin does not induce glycogenolysis in rabbit hepatocytes; glucagon, angiotensin, phenylephrine and ATP are as potent as with rat hepatocytes, whereas isoprenaline is nearly 10000 times more potent in the rabbit. Binding studies of [3H]vasopressin reveal the complete absence of specific vasopressin receptors on rabbit liver plasma membranes. We verified that vasopressin acts as an antidiuretic and vasopressor agent in the rabbit. We conclude that there is a selective lack of V1 vasopressin receptors in rabbit liver.

Inositol 1:2(cyclic),4,5-trisphosphate is not a major product of inositol phospholipid metabolism in vasopressin-stimulated WRK1 cells.

Project description:1. A method has been devised for quenching cell incubations with an aqueous phenol/chloroform/EDTA mixture of neutral pH, to allow the analysis of acid-labile cell components. 2. Using this method, we have searched for the appearance of Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 [inositol 1:2(cyclic),4,5-trisphosphate] in WRK1 mammary tumour cells that were labelled to high specific radioactivity with [3H]inositol and then stimulated with 0.4 microM-vasopressin. 3. Vasopressin caused a very rapid accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate), followed by a slower decline towards the original concentration. An acid-labile and inositol-labelled compound with the chromatographic properties of Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 was present in unstimulated cells at less than 5% of the elevated concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3. Its concentration rose 2-3-fold during stimulation for 3 min, at which time its concentration was about 5% of the elevated concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3. 4. We conclude that Ins(1,4,5)P3 is the major product of phosphoinositidase C-catalysed phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis in vasopressin-stimulated WRK1 cells. Ins(1:2cyclic,4,5)P3 is unlikely to be an important intracellular messenger in these cells, at least during the first few minutes of stimulation.

Synergism between thrombin and adrenaline (epinephrine) in human platelets. Marked potentiation of inositol phospholipid metabolism.

Project description:We have studied synergism between adrenaline (epinephrine) and low concentrations of thrombin in gel-filtered human platelets prelabelled with [32P]Pi. Suspensions of platelets, which did not contain added fibrinogen, were incubated at 37 degrees C to measure changes in the levels of 32P-labelled phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidate (PA), aggregation and dense-granule secretion after stimulation. Adrenaline alone (3.5-4.0 microM) did not cause a change in any parameter (phosphoinositide metabolism, aggregation and dense-granule secretion), but markedly enhanced the thrombin-induced responses over a narrow range of thrombin concentrations (0.03-0.08 units/ml). The thrombin-induced hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids by phospholipase C, which was measured as the formation of [32P]PA, was potentiated by adrenaline, as was the increase in the levels of [32P]PIP2 and [32P]PIP. The presence of adrenaline caused a shift to the left for the thrombin-induced changes in the phosphoinositide metabolism, without affecting the maximal levels of 32P-labelled compounds obtained. A similar shift by adrenaline in the dose-response relationship was previously demonstrated for thrombin-induced aggregation and dense-granule secretion. Also, the narrow range of concentrations of thrombin over which adrenaline potentiates thrombin-induced platelet responses is the same for changes in phosphoinositide metabolism and physiological responses (aggregation and dense-granule secretion). Our observations clearly indicate that adrenaline directly or indirectly influences thrombin-induced changes in phosphoinositide metabolism.

Neomycin cannot be used as a selective inhibitor of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in intact or semi-permeabilized human platelets. Aminoglycosides activate semi-permeabilized platelets.

Project description:High concentrations of neomycin (2-10 mM) inhibited aggregation, but not shape change, of intact platelets by collagen, ADP and the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, the last two studies being carried out in the presence of the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor indomethacin. In contrast, over the same range of concentrations neomycin inhibited both aggregation and shape change induced by thrombin. Under these conditions activation of platelets by collagen and by thrombin, but not by A23187 or by ADP, is believed to be dependent on the hydrolysis of membrane inositol phospholipids. These data therefore suggest that the inhibitory action of neomycin on intact platelets is not related to its previously reported inhibitory effect on phosphoinositide metabolism. The selective inhibition of thrombin-induced shape change indicates a second site of action of neomycin on intact platelets. On platelets rendered semi-permeable with saponin, neomycin and a second aminoglycoside antibiotic, streptomycin (each 0.06-2 mM), stimulated secretion and aggregation responses. These effects were inhibited by indomethacin and by EGTA. Activation of semi-permeabilized platelets by neomycin is associated with the formation of inositol phosphates and phosphatidic acid, indicating activation by phospholipase C. This effect is also inhibited by indomethacin, implying that it is secondary to the formation of prostaglandins and endoperoxides. These results are discussed in the context of the use of neomycin as a selective inhibitor of polyphosphoinositide metabolism.

Inositol phospholipid metabolism and myoblast fusion.

Project description:The fusion of chick embryonic myoblasts has been studied in tissue culture. Myoblasts are maintained at 0.1 microM-Ca2+ for 50 h. During this time they achieve fusion competence. Fusion is initiated by raising the medium Ca2+ concentration to 1.4 mM. A rapid breakdown of the polyphosphoinositides was detected within 3 min of Ca2+ addition. Rapid synthesis of phosphatidic acid was also detected at this time. Breakdown of phosphatidylinositol and synthesis of 1,2-diacylglycerol were also detected. Other phospholipids were unaffected. Sr2+ could replace Ca2+ in this process but Mg2+ could not and also inhibited the Ca2+ effect. The Ca2+-ionophore A23187 stimulated further apparent polyphosphoinositide breakdown in the presence of Ca2+. 6. The results are discussed with respect to myoblast fusion.

Glycoprotein Ib activation by thrombin stimulates the energy metabolism in human platelets.

Project description:Thrombin-induced platelet activation requires substantial amounts of ATP. However, the specific contribution of each ATP-generating pathway i.e., oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) versus glycolysis and the biochemical mechanisms involved in the thrombin-induced activation of energy metabolism remain unclear. Here we report an integral analysis on the role of both energy pathways in human platelets activated by several agonists, and the signal transducing mechanisms associated with such activation. We found that thrombin, Trap-6, arachidonic acid, collagen, A23187, epinephrine and ADP significantly increased glycolytic flux (3-38 times vs. non-activated platelets) whereas ristocetin was ineffective. OxPhos (33 times) and mitochondrial transmembrane potential (88%) were increased only by thrombin. OxPhos was the main source of ATP in thrombin-activated platelets, whereas in platelets activated by any of the other agonists, glycolysis was the principal ATP supplier. In order to establish the biochemical mechanisms involved in the thrombin-induced OxPhos activation in platelets, several signaling pathways associated with mitochondrial activation were analyzed. Wortmannin and LY294002 (PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitors), ristocetin and heparin (GPIb inhibitors) as well as resveratrol, ATP (calcium-release inhibitors) and PP1 (Tyr-phosphorylation inhibitor) prevented the thrombin-induced platelet activation. These results suggest that thrombin activates OxPhos and glycolysis through GPIb-dependent signaling involving PI3K and Akt activation, calcium mobilization and protein phosphorylation.

Modulation of inositol phospholipid metabolism by polyamines.

Project description:At low concentrations of Mg2+, incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in plasma membranes isolated from human polymorphonuclear leucocytes was enhanced 2-4-fold by the polyamines spermidine and spermine. Polyamines had no effects on inositol phospholipid phosphorylation at high concentrations of Mg2+. At 1 mM-Mg2+, [32P]PIP2 synthesis was maximally enhanced by 2 mM-spermine and 5 mM-spermidine, whereas putrescine only slightly enhanced synthesis. Spermine decreased the EC50 (concn. for half-maximal activity) for Mg2+ in [32P]PIP2 synthesis from 5 mM to 0.5 mM. Spermine did not modulate the Km for ATP for [32P]PIP or [32P]PIP2 synthesis. Spermine also decreased the EC50 for PI in [32P]PIP synthesis. In contrast, spermine elevated the apparent Vmax, without affecting the EC50 for PIP, for [32P]PIP2 synthesis. Spermine and spermidine also inhibited the hydrolysis of [32P]PIP2 by phosphomonoesterase activity. Therefore polyamines appear to activate inositol phospholipid kinases by eliminating the requirements for super-physiological concentrations of Mg2+. Polyamine-mediated inhibition of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis would serve to potentiate further their abilities to promote the accumulation of polyphosphoinositides in biological systems.

Collagen stimulates [3H]inositol trisphosphate formation in indomethacin-treated human platelets.

Project description:The present study investigates the pathway of metabolism of inositol phospholipids in human platelets exposed to collagen. Platelet activation by collagen was preceded by a lag phase usually lasting 10-20 s. Formation of [3H]inositol trisphosphate (IP3) was not observed during this period, but occurred in parallel with the onset of aggregation, release of ATP and phosphorylation of a 20 000 Da and a 40 000 Da protein. Indomethacin treatment partially inhibited all of these responses. Aggregation and ATP release, but not IP3 formation, were further inhibited in indomethacin-treated platelets loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, quin2. Under these conditions there was no detectable mobilization of Ca2+. These results demonstrate that activation of platelets by collagen is associated with rapid hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides by phospholipase C, thereby producing IP3. This observation is discussed in relation to IP3 as a possible Ca2+-mobilizing agent.

Neomycin does not interfere with the inositol phospholipid metabolism, but blocks binding of alpha-thrombin to intact human platelets.

Project description:Neomycin was demonstrated to inhibit the binding of thrombin to intact human platelets. The effects of neomycin on both thrombin binding and thrombin-induced changes in inositol phospholipid metabolism could be reproduced by the thrombin antagonist hirudin. We propose that neomycin inhibits thrombin-induced platelet activation by interference with the cellular receptor.

Stimulation of inorganic-phosphate incorporation into phosphatidylinositol in rat thoracic aorta mediated through V1-vasopressin receptors.

Project description:Vasopressin stimulates the incorporation of [32P]Pi into phosphatidylinositol but not into other phospholipids in rat thoracic aorta strips. The relative abilities of three vasopressin analogues to stimulate phosphatidylinositol labelling in rat aorta are similar to their relative pressor potencies in vivo and to their relative potencies in stimulating the metabolism of rat hepatocytes, but very different from their relative antidiuretic potencies. The vasopressor antagonist [1-(beta-mercapto-beta, beta-cyclopentamethylenepropionic acid),8-arginine]vasopressin competitively inhibits [Arg8]vasopressin-stimulated phosphatidylinositol labelling in rat aorta with a pA2 of 8.1. It is concluded that the Ca2+-mobilizing vasopressin receptors (V1-receptors) of the rat aorta stimulate phosphatidylinositol metabolism, probably by enhancing phosphatidylinositol breakdown.
