Stimulation Of

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 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.

In the rat parotid acinar cell, methacholine caused an increase in [Ca2+]i as determined by quin-2 fluorescence. The increase in [Ca2+] i was initially independent of, and subsequently dependent on, the presence of extracellular Ca2+, indicating mobilization of intracellular Ca2+, as well as activation of Ca2+ entry. Methacholine mobilization of the internal Ca2+ pool and stimulation of the initial transient phase of K+ efflux have similar concentration dependencies; the EC50 value for Ca2+ mobilization is 80 nmollL, the EC50 value for K+ efflux is 200 nmol/L. In a permeable parotid cell preparation, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate, and inositol 4,5-bisphosphate were able to release Ca2+ from an ATP-dependent, oligomycininsensitive pool. These observations, when taken with the previous finding that methacholine stimulates Ca-independent inositol trisphosphate formation, support the view that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate acts as a second messenger mediating the release of an intracellular Ca 2+ pool following muscarinic receptor activation in the parotid gland.

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.

It now appears to be generally agreed that the ‘phosphatidylinositol response’, discovered in 1953 by Hokin & Hokin, occurs universally when cells are stimulated by ligands that cause an elevation of the ionized calcium concentration of the cytosol. The initiating reaction is almost certainly hydrolysis of an inositol lipid by a phosphodiesterase. Phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate all break down rapidly under such circumstances. However, we do not yet know which of these individual reactions is most closely coupled to receptor stimulation, nor do we know where in the cell it occurs. With many stimuli, inositol phospholipid breakdown is closely coupled to occupation of receptors and appears not to be a response to changes in cytosol [Ca 2+ ] : this provoked the suggestion that it may be a reaction essential to the coupling between activation of receptors and the mobilization of Ca 2+ within the cell. In a few situations, however, it appears probable that inositol lipid breakdown can occur as a result of the rise in cytosol [Ca 2+ ] that follows receptor activation: such observations gave rise to the alternative opinion that inositol lipid breakdown cannot be related to stimulus-response coupling at calcium-mobilizing receptors. It now seems likely that these two views are too rigidly polarized and that some cells probably display both receptor-linked and Ca 2+ -controlled breakdown of inositol lipids. Both may sometimes occur simultaneously or sequentially in the same cell.

One of the earliest actions of thrombin in fibroblasts is stimulation of a phospholipase C (PLC) that hydrolyses phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol. In membranes prepared from WI-38 human lung fibroblasts, thrombin activated an inositol-lipid-specific PLC that hydrolysed [32P]PIP2 and [32P]phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate (PIP) to [32P]IP3 and [32P]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (IP2) respectively. Degradation of [32P]phosphatidylinositol was not detected. PLC activation by thrombin was dependent on GTP, and was completely inhibited by a 15-fold excess of the non-hydrolysable GDP analogue guanosine 5′-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]). Neither ATP nor cytosol was required. Guanosine 5′-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppG) also stimulated polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis, and this activation was inhibited by GDP[S]. Stimulation of PLC by either thrombin or p[NH]ppG was dependent on Ca2+. Activation by thrombin required Ca2+ concentrations between 1 and 100 nM, whereas stimulation of PLC activity by GTP required concentrations of Ca2+ above 100 nM. Thus the mitogen thrombin increased the sensitivity of PLC to concentrations of free Ca2+ similar to those found in quiescent fibroblasts. Under identical conditions, another mitogen, platelet-derived growth factor, did not stimulate polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis. It is concluded that an early post-receptor effect of thrombin is the activation of a Ca2+- and GTP-dependent membrane-associated PLC that specifically cleaves PIP2 and PIP. This result suggests that the cell-surface receptor for thrombin is coupled to a polyphosphoinositide-specific PLC by a GTP-binding protein that regulates PLC activity by increasing its sensitivity to Ca2+.

Carbachol stimulation of muscarinic receptors in rat cortical slices prelabelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol caused the rapid formation of a novel inositol polyphosphate. Evidence derived from its chromatographic behaviour, and from the structure of the products formed in partial dephosphorylation experiments, suggests that it is probably D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. An enzyme in human red cell membranes specifically removes the 5-phosphate from it to form inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. It is suggested that inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate is likely to be a second messenger, and that it is the precursor of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and possibly of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate.

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.
