We examined the effects of FK506, a specific inhibitor of calcineurin, on the binding capacity of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-DPK) in gerbils subjected to 2-h cerebral hemispheric ischemia. FK506 (0.1 mg/kg) was infused intravenously at 15 min prior to the induction of ischemia by common carotid artery occlusion. The binding capacity of cAMP-DPK was evaluated by autoradiographic analysis of the cAMP binding, and cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured by the [14C] iodoantipyrine method. In the sham-operated gerbils, FK506 significantly increased mean arterial blood pressure and tended to decrease CBF, suggesting that FK506 may constrict systemic blood vessels as well as cerebral blood vessels. On the other hand, cAMP binding was not altered by FK506 in the sham-operated gerbils. In the ischemia group of gerbils, FK506 prevented any significant reduction of cAMP binding in the hippocampus CA1 and cerebral cortices on the ischemic side, whereas it exerted no significant influence on the cAMP binding of the nonischemic side. The values of CBF were comparable between the vehicle-treated gerbils and FK506-treated gerbils in the ischemic regions. Preservation of cAMP binding indicates that intracellular signal transduction via cAMP-DPK can be maintained by FK506 despite ischemia, suggesting that this agent may be beneficial for reducing ischemic tissue damage.

Cytosolic cyclic AMP-binding capacity and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity have been studied in relation to differentiation and maturation of rabbit bone marrow erythroblasts. Using cells fractionated by velocity sedimentation at unit gravity, it was found that both activities decreased in dividing cells when calculated in terms of cell number but remained constant per cell volume. After the final cell division, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity did not change further, whereas cyclic AMP-binding capacity declined. There were no qualitative, but only quantitative, changes in the cyclic AMP-binding proteins that are present in the cytosol of developing erythroblasts. In the immature cells, the apparent KD for the interaction of binding proteins with cyclic AMP was 4 } 10(-8) M. The data suggest that changes in cyclic AMP-binding activity during differentiation of erythroid cells are due both to changes in the amount of binding proteins and in their affinity for cyclic AMP. Plasma membranes of erythroblasts were also able to bind cyclic AMP but only in dividing cells.

Regulation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, cyclic AMP-receptor activity and intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations by choriogonadotropin was studied in ovarian cells prepared from 26-day-old rats. A close correlation was observed between phospho-transferase activity and cyclic AMP-receptor activity in 12000g supernatant fractions from rat ovarian homogenate. The apparent activation constant (Ka) and I50 (concentration required to produce 50% inhibition) of different cyclic nucleotides for phosphotransferase and cyclic AMP receptor activities respectively were also determined. Cyclic AMP and 8-bromo cyclic AMP were most effective, giving Ka values of 0.08 and 0.09μm and I50 of 0.12 and 0.16μm respectively. Other nucleotides were also effective, but required higher concentrations to give a comparable effect. An increased concentration of cyclic AMP produced by choriogonadotropin (1μg/ml) treatment was accompanied by decreased cyclic AMP binding as early as 5min after hormone addition. Choriogonadotropin also stimulated the protein kinase activity ratio (−cyclic AMP/+cyclic AMP) under identical experimental conditions. The phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine potentiated the action of choriogonadotropin on the three parameters measured in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The maximal cyclic AMP-binding capacity, as determined by cyclic AMP-exchange assay, remained unchanged before and after hormone addition. The endogenously bound cyclic AMP was determined from the difference between the maximal binding capacity and the exogenously bound cyclic AMP. With different choriogonadotropin concentrations, a quantitative correlation was established between maximal binding capacity, exogenous binding and endogenous binding activities. Approx. 60% of total binding sites were endogenously occupied in untreated cells, and choriogonadotropin (1μg/ml) treatment fully saturated available binding sites with a parallel 10-fold increase in cellular cyclic AMP. The present results provide evidence for a probable intracellular compartmentalization of cyclic AMP in the ovarian cell, and suggest that in the unstimulated state all cyclic AMP present in the ovarian cell may not be available for protein kinase activation.
