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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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.

Incorporation and release of inorganic phosphate in horse spleen ferritin.

Project description:When ferritin is reconstituted from Fe and apoferritin in vitro in the presence of Pi, the product obtained differs both from native ferritin and from ferritin reconstituted in the absence of Pi. When the latter is incubated with Pi the product resembles native ferritin with respect both to the pattern of Pi incorporated per molecule or per Fe atom and to the ease of release of this Pi relative to Fe release. It is concluded that much of the Pi of native ferritin is adsorbed on surfaces of ferritin iron-core crystallites. The results also suggest that Pi is not present at the intracellular site of Fe incorporation into ferritin, but is added after Fe.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate regulate phagolysosome biogenesis.

Project description:Professional phagocytic cells ingest microbial intruders by engulfing them into phagosomes, which subsequently mature into microbicidal phagolysosomes. Phagosome maturation requires sequential fusion of the phagosome with early endosomes, late endosomes, and lysosomes. Although various phosphoinositides (PIPs) have been detected on phagosomes, it remained unclear which PIPs actually govern phagosome maturation. Here, we analyzed the involvement of PIPs in fusion of phagosomes with various endocytic compartments and identified phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate [PI(4)P], phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P], and the lipid kinases that generate these PIPs, as mediators of phagosome-lysosome fusion. Phagosome-early endosome fusion required PI(3)P, yet did not depend on PI(4)P. Thus, PI(3)P regulates phagosome maturation at early and late stages, whereas PI(4)P is selectively required late in the pathway.

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

Project description: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.

Managing dissections of the thoracic aorta.

Project description:Thoracic aortic dissection is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, and it requires timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment. Long-term antihypertensive therapy remains critical for the treatment of this disease. Surgical intervention, although still a formidable undertaking, has evolved to better address both acute and chronic dissection, and the results have improved. Basic and clinical research, as well as technological advances, have increased our understanding of this challenging disease state.

Thoracic Aorta Calcification and Noncardiovascular Disease-Related Mortality.

Project description:Objective- Arterial calcification is highly correlated with underlying atherosclerosis. Arterial calcification of the thoracic aorta is evident in many older individuals at high susceptibility to aging-related diseases and non-cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related mortality. In this study, we evaluated the association of thoracic aorta calcification (TAC) with non-CVD morbidity and mortality. Approach and Results- We analyzed data from participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, a prospective cohort study of subclinical atherosclerosis, in which participants underwent cardiac computed tomography at baseline and were followed longitudinally for incident CVD events and non-CVD events. Using modified proportional hazards models accounting for the competing risk of CVD death and controlling for demographics, CVD risk factors, coronary artery calcium, and CVD events, we evaluated whether TAC was independently associated with non-CVD morbidity and mortality. Among 6765 participants (mean age, 62 years), 704 non-CVD deaths occurred for a median follow-up of 12.2 years. Compared with no TAC, the highest tertile of TAC volume was associated with a higher risk of non-CVD mortality (hazard ratio, 1.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.23-1.97), as well as several non-CVD diagnoses, including hip fracture (2.14; 1.03-4.46), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (2.06; 1.29-3.29), and pneumonia (1.79; 1.30-2.45), with magnitudes of association that were larger than for those of coronary artery calcium. Conclusions- TAC is associated with non-CVD morbidity and non-CVD mortality, potentially through a pathway that is unrelated to atherosclerosis. TAC may be a general marker of biological aging and an indicator of increased risk of non-CVD and death.
