The molecular mechanisms underlying the ability of muscarinic agonists to enhance the metabolism of inositol phospholipids were studied using rat parotid gland slices prelabelled with tracer quantities of [3H]inositol and then washed with 10 mM unlabelled inositol. Carbachol treatment caused rapid and marked increases in the levels of radioactive inositol 1-phosphate, inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and an accumulation of label in the free inositol pool. There were much less marked changes in the levels of [3H]phosphatidylinositol, [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. At 5 s after stimulation with carbachol there were large increases in [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, but not in [3H]inositol 1-phosphate. After stimulation with carbachol for 10 min the levels of radioactive inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate greatly exceeded the starting level of radioactivity in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate respectively. When carbachol treatment was followed by addition of sufficient atropine to block all the muscarinic receptors the radioactive inositol phosphates rapidly returned towards control levels. The carbachol-evoked changes in radioactive inositol phosphate and phospholipid levels were blocked in the presence of 2,4-dinitrophenol (an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation). The results suggest that muscarinic agonists stimulate a polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C and that these lipids are continuously replenished from the labelled phosphatidylinositol pool. [3H]Inositol 1-phosphate in the stimulated glands probably arises via hydrolysis of inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and not directly from phosphatidylinositol.

We have employed a neutral-pH extraction technique to look for inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate derivatives in [3H]inositol-labelled parotid gland slices stimulated with carbachol. The incubations were terminated by adding cold chloroform/methanol (1:2, v/v), the samples were dried under vacuum and inositol phosphates were extracted from the dried residues by phenol/chloroform/water partitioning. Water-soluble inositol metabolites were separated by h.p.l.c. at pH 3.7. 32P-labelled inositol phosphate standards (inositol 1-phosphate, inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate) were quantitively recovered through both extraction and chromatography steps. Treatment of inositol cyclic phosphate standards with 5% (w/v) HClO4 for 10 min prior to chromatography resulted in formation of the expected non-cyclic compounds. [3H]Inositol 1-phosphate and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate were both present in parotid gland slices and both increased during stimulation with 1 mM-carbachol. There was no evidence for significant quantities of [3H]inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate or [3H]inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate in control or carbachol-stimulated glands. Parotid gland homogenates rapidly converted inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to inositol bisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate, but metabolism of the inositol cyclic trisphosphate was much slower. The results suggest that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, but not inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate, is the water-soluble product of muscarinic receptor-stimulated phospholipase C in rat parotid glands.

scholarly journals Rapid formation of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate in rat parotid glands may both result indirectly from receptor-stimulated release of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate from phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate

Addition of 1 mM-carbachol to [3H]inositol-labelled rat parotid slices stimulated rapid formation of [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, the accumulation of which reached a peak 20 s after stimulation, and then declined rapidly towards a new steady state. The initial rate of formation of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate was slower than that for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The radioactivity in [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate fell quickly in carbachol-stimulated and then atropine-blocked parotid slices, suggesting that it is rapidly metabolized during stimulation. Parotid homogenates rapidly dephosphorylated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and, less rapidly, inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate was specifically hydrolysed to a compound with the chromatographic properties of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. The only 3H-labelled phospholipids that we could detect in parotid slices labelled with [3H]inositol for 90 min were phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Parotid homogenates synthesized inositol tetrakisphosphate from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. This activity was dependent on the presence of ATP. We suggest that, during carbachol stimulation of parotid slices, the key event in inositol lipid metabolism is the activation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate thus liberated is metabolized in two distinct ways; by direct hydrolysis of the 5-phosphate to form inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and by phosphorylation to form inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and hence, by hydrolysis of this tetrakisphosphate, to form inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate.

The involvement of phosphoinositide hydrolysis in the action of oxytocin and vasopressin on the uterus was investigated in gestational myometrium and decidua cells by measuring the production of inositol phosphates. Both peptides stimulated a dose related increase in all three inositol phosphates in myometrium. This may be related to the control of sarcoplasmic Ca++ levels in the myometrium. Oxytocin and vasopressin also stimulated inositol 1-phosphate (IP) production in decidua cells. The hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol by decidua homogenates exhibited a precursor-product relationship for diacylglycerol and arachidonic acid accumulation. Hence both peptides may mobilise free arachidonic acid, for prostaglandin biosynthesis, from decidua cell phosphoinositides by the sequential action of phospholipase C and diacylglycerol lipase.

A high-performance-liquid-chromatography (h.p.l.c.) separation was developed, which resolves isomers of inositol monophosphate (IP), inositol bisphosphate (IP2), and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) in a single run. In GH3 cells labelled with [3H]inositol, treated with Li+ and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), radiolabelled components identified as inositol 1-phosphate (I1P), inositol 2-phosphate (I2P), inositol 4-phosphate (I4P), inositol 1,4-bisphosphate [I(1,4)P2], inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [I(1,3,4)P3] and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3] are present, as are multiple unidentified IP2 peaks. After TRH stimulation, both I1P and I4P increase, the increase in I4P preceding that of I1P; I(1,4)P2 and an unknown IP2 increase; and both I(1,3,4)P3 and I(1,4,5)P3 increase, the increase in I(1,4,5)P3 being rapid and transient, whereas the increase in I(1,3,4)P3 is slower and more sustained. The most rapidly appearing inositol phosphates produced after TRH stimulation are I(1,4)P2 and I(1,4,5)P3.

Inositol 1,4,5 Trisphosphate

Cross-linking of surface immunoglobulin (Ig) receptors on human B cells leads to the activation of a tyrosine kinase. The activated tyrosine kinase subsequently phosphorylates a number of substrates, including phospholipase C-gamma. This enzyme breaks down phosphoinositol bisphosphate to form two intracellular messengers, diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, leading to the activation of protein kinase C and the release of intracellular Ca2+ respectively. We have used h.p.l.c. and flow cytometry to measure accurately the inositol phosphate turnover and Ca2+ release in anti-Ig-stimulated human B cells. In particular, we have examined the effect of dose of the cross-linking antibody on the two responses. The identity of putative messenger inositol phosphates has been verified by structural analysis, and the amounts of both inositol phosphates and Ca2+ present have been quantified. In the Ramos Burkitt lymphoma, which is very sensitive to stimulus through its Ig receptors, both inositol phosphate production and Ca2+ release were found to be related to the dose of anti-Ig antibody applied. This suggests that phospholipase C-mediated signal transduction in human B cells converts the degree of cross-linking of the immunoglobulin receptor quantitatively into intracellular signals.

A complete separation of myo-inositol 1,4,5-[4,5-(32)P]trisphosphate prepared from human erythrocytes, and myo-[2-3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate prepared from carbachol-stimulated rat parotid glands [Irvine, Letcher, Lander & Downes (1984) Biochem. J. 223, 237-243], was achieved by anion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography. This separation technique was then used to study the metabolism of these two isomers of inositol trisphosphate in carbachol-stimulated rat parotid glands. Fragments of glands were pre-labelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol, washed, and then stimulated with carbachol. At 5s after stimulation a clear increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was detected, with no significant increase in inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. After this initial lag however, inositol 1,3,4-phosphate rose rapidly; by 15s it predominated over inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and continued to rise so that after 15 min it was at 10-20 times the radiolabelling level of the 1,4,5-isomer. In contrast, after the initial rapid rise (maximal within 15s), inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels declined to near control levels after 1 min and then rose again very gradually over the next 15 min. When a muscarinic blocker (atropine) was added after 15 min of carbachol stimulation, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels dropped to control levels within 2-3 min, whereas inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate levels took at least 15 min to fall, consistent with the kinetics observed earlier for total parotid inositol trisphosphates [Downes & Wusteman (1983) Biochem. J. 216, 633-640]. Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) from stimulated and control cells were degraded chemically to inositol trisphosphate to seek evidence for 3H-labelled PtdIns(3,4)P2. No evidence could be obtained that a significant proportion of PtdInsP2 was this isomer; in control tissues it must be less than 5% of the total PtdInsP2 radiolabelled by myo-[2-3H]inositol. These data indicate that, provided that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is studied independently of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, the former shows metabolic characteristics consistent with its proposed role as a second messenger for calcium mobilization. The metabolic profile of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate is entirely different, and its function and source remain unclear.

Substrate Regulation

Inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate 5/6-kinase (ITPK1) is a reversible, poly-specific inositol phosphate kinase that has been implicated as a modifier gene in cystic fibrosis. Upon activation of phospholipase C at the plasma membrane, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate enters the cytosol and is inter-converted by an array of kinases and phosphatases into other inositol phosphates with diverse and critical cellular activities. In mammals it has been established that inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, produced from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, lies in a branch of the metabolic pathway that is separate from inositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate, which inhibits plasma membrane chloride channels. We have determined the molecular mechanism for communication between these two pathways, showing that phosphate is transferred between inositol phosphates via ITPK1-bound nucleotide. Intersubstrate phosphate transfer explains how competing substrates are able to stimulate each others' catalysis by ITPK1. We further show that these features occur in the human protein, but not in plant or protozoan homologues. The high resolution structure of human ITPK1 identifies novel secondary structural features able to impart substrate selectivity and enhance nucleotide binding, thereby promoting intersubstrate phosphate transfer. Our work describes a novel mode of substrate regulation and provides insight into the enzyme evolution of a signaling mechanism from a metabolic role.

Decreases in D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] content and changes in inositol phospholipid contents occurred during the time of atropine-induced relaxation of swine tracheal smooth muscle contracted with 55 microM carbachol. Decrease in Ins(1,4,5)P3 occurred in a pool which makes up 40% of the total content of this inositol phosphate and which has access to Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and/or 3-kinase. A 50% decrease in this pool occurred at 16 s after addition of atropine and within 6-10 s after inhibition of phospholipase C (PLC). The maximal fall in Ins(1,4,5)P3 occurred at a time when force had only decreased 30% of the maximal response. A phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) pool linked to muscarinic receptor-activation increased 160% after addition of atropine, the maximal response occurring at a time when relaxation was 80% complete. The mechanisms for this increase were the maintained formation of PIP and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) even though PIP2 hydrolysis was inhibited and the apparent chemical equilibrium between PIP and PIP2.

Cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]cyt) and [3H]inositol phosphates ([3H]InsP) were correlated while decreasing the Ca2+ content of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) stores in cultured A7r5 cells at rest and after activation with 8-arginine vasopressin (AVP). Decreasing Ca2+ influx by reducing extracellular Ca2+ or by treatment with verapamil had no effect on resting [Ca2+]cyt but significantly inhibited the AVP-evoked Ca2+ transients (delta Ca2+). Neither treatment affected basal [3H]InsP, but both treatments increased AVP-evoked synthesis of [3H]InsP. Likewise, basal [3H]InsP were unaffected by brief (10-30 s) exposures to thapsigargin (TG), while AVP-induced [3H]InsP synthesis was significantly augmented. Similar treatment with TG rapidly increased resting [Ca2+]cyt and decreased SR Ca2+ by 9-25% as manifested by decreased delta Ca2+. By contrast, ryanodine induced slow increases in [Ca2+]cyt that stabilized within 30 min; subsequent AVP-induced delta Ca2+ were attenuated by 50%. Ryanodine had no effect on either basal or stimulated [3H]InsP levels. Agents that elevate adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) such as caffeine, 8-bromo-cAMP, and forskolin inhibited AVP-evoked [3H]InsP formation. These observations provide further characterization of a communication pathway between the AVP-sensitive Ca2+ stores in the SR and the plasmalemmal enzyme system involved in the synthesis of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. This pathway is manifested by an inverse relationship between the Ca2+ content of an AVP-sensitive, ryanodine-insensitive SR Ca2+ store and evoked [3H]InsP synthesis and may represent an important component in the tonic regulation of resting [Ca2+]cyt and vasoconstrictor- and hormone-evoked SR Ca2+ release.

1. The effect of Li+ on the agonist-dependent metabolism of [3H]inositol has been studied in rat brain, rat parotid and the insect salivary gland. 2. When brain or parotid slices were incubated in the presence of [3H]inositol, Li+ was found to amplify the ability of agonists such as carbachol, phenylephrine, histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine and Substance P to elevate the amount of label appearing in the inositol phosphates. 3. A different approach was used with the insect salivary gland, which was prelabelled with [3H]inositol. After washing out the label, the subsequent release of [3H]inositol induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine was greatly decreased by Li+. During Li+ treatment there was a large accumulation of [3H]inositol 1-phosphate. 4. This ability of Li+ to greatly amplify the agonist-dependent accumulation of myo-inositol 1-phosphate offers a novel technique for identifying those receptors that function by hydrolysing phosphatidylinositol. 5. The therapeutic action of Li+ may be explained by this inhibition of myo-inositol 1-phosphatase, which lowers the level of myo-inositol and could lead to a decrease in the concentration of phosphatidylinositol, especially in those neurons that are being stimulated excessively. This alteration in phosphatidylinositol metabolism may serve to reset the sensitivity of those multifunctional receptors that generate second messengers such as Ca2+, cyclic GMP and the prostaglandins.
