In rat parotid acinar cells prelabelled with [3H]inositol, substance P (100 nM) induced the formation of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. Ins(1,4,5)P3 reached a maximum 7 s after substance P stimulation, and thereafter decreased and reached a stable value at 60 s. When the cells were exposed to substance P for 10, 30, 60, or 300 s, washed, and re-exposed to this peptide, the formation of [3H]inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) was attenuated in a time-dependent manner. In the cells pretreated as described above, the number of [3H]substance-P-binding sites (Bmax) was also decreased. Possible role(s) of Ca2+ and protein kinase (protein kinase C) control mechanisms in regulating substance P responses were investigated. Desensitization of substance P-induced InsP3 was not affected by the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin, nor was it dependent on Ca2+ mobilization. On the other hand, in the presence of 4 beta-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-4 beta-phorbol 13-acetate, known activators of protein kinase C, substance P-induced InsP3 formation was inhibited. However, PDBu had no effect on [3H]substance P binding, whether present during the assay or when cells were pretreated. The persistent desensitization of InsP3 formation induced by substance P was not affected by PDBu. These results suggest that the persistent desensitization of InsP3 formation induced by substance P is a homologous process involving down-regulation of the substance P receptor; the mechanism does not appear to involve, or to be affected by, the Ca2+ or protein kinase C signalling systems. Protein kinase C activation can, however, inhibit substance P-induced InsP3 formation, which may indicate the presence of a negative-feedback control on the substance P pathway.

Substance P-induced inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) formation was inhibited by 1 microM-4 beta-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) in rat parotid acinar cells. The inhibitory effect of PDBu was reversed by the protein kinase C inhibitors H-7 or K252a. Substance P also elicits a persistent desensitization of subsequent substance P-stimulated InsP3 formation. However, this desensitization was not inhibited by H-7. In addition, H-7 had no effect on the time course of substance P-induced InsP3 formation. These results suggest that, although activation of protein kinase C by phorbol esters can inhibit the substance P receptor-linked phospholipase C pathway, this mechanism apparently plays little, if any, role in regulating this system after activation by substance P.

Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) is known as a major cellular substrate for protein kinase C (PKC). MARCKS has been implicated in the regulation of brain development and postnatal survival, cellular migration and adhesion, as well as phagocytosis, endocytosis, and exocytosis. The involvement of MARCKS phosphorylation in secretory function has been reported in Ca2+-mediated exocytosis. In rat parotid acinar cells, the activation of β-adrenergic receptors provokes exocytotic amylase release via accumulation of intracellular cAMP levels. Here, we studied the involvement of MARCKS phosphorylation in the cAMP-dependent amylase release in rat parotid acinar cells. MARCKS protein was detected in rat parotid acinar cells by Western blotting. The β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (IPR) induced MARCKS phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner. Translocation of a part of phosphorylated MARCKS from the membrane to the cytosol and enhancement of MARCKS phosphorylation at the apical membrane site induced by IPR were observed by immunohistochemistry. H89, a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) inhibitor, inhibited the IPR-induced MARCKS phosphorylation. The PKCδ inhibitor rottlerin inhibited the IPR-induced MARCKS phosphorylation and amylase release. IPR activated PKCδ, and the effects of IPR were inhibited by the PKA inhibitors. A MARCKS-related peptide partially inhibited the IPR-induced amylase release. These findings suggest that MARCKS phosphorylation via the activation of PKCδ, which is downstream of PKA activation, is involved in the cAMP-dependent amylase release in parotid acinar cells.

1. The whole cell patch clamp was used to measure calcium current in isolated chick sympathetic ganglion neurons. Previous results showed that somatostatin inhibits calcium currents (ICa) in a voltage-dependent manner. The effect of somatostatin rapidly desensitizes. In addition, the action of somatostatin on the calcium current is inhibited by activation of protein kinase C (PKC). Because substance P (SP) has been shown to activate PKC in the chick sympathetic neurons, we here test the effects of SP on the calcium current and on the modulatory action of somatostatin. 2. At a concentration of 1 microM, SP had small, variable effects on ICa. 3. SP in the presence of guanosine 5'-triphosphate-gamma-S, or at higher concentrations (10 microM), inhibited ICa in a voltage-dependent manner, similar to the action of somatostatin. 4. Rather than inhibiting the action of somatostatin, SP (1 microM) potentiated the response to somatostatin. This effect of SP was only observed after the response to somatostatin had partially desensitized. SP had no effect on nondesensitized responses to somatostatin. 5. Desensitization of the somatostatin response involved a shift in its dose-response curve toward higher somatostatin concentrations as well as a decrease in the maximal response. SP appears to counteract the shift of the dose-response curve selectively. 6. The potentiation of the somatostatin response by SP is blocked by 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), but not by Calphostin C, Compound 5, k252a, protein kinase C (PKC)19-36, or adenylyl-imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), suggesting that phosphorylation is not involved and that the H-7 action does not depend on kinase inhibition.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Increased renal pelvic pressure or bradykinin increases afferent renal nerve activity (ARNA) via PGE2-induced release of substance P. Protein kinase C (PKC) activation increases ARNA, and PKC inhibition blocks the ARNA response to bradykinin. We now examined whether bradykinin mediates the ARNA response to increased renal pelvic pressure by activating PKC. In anesthetized rats, the ARNA responses to increased renal pelvic pressure were blocked by renal pelvic perfusion with the bradykinin B2-receptor antagonist HOE 140 and the PKC inhibitor calphostin C by 76 ± 8% ( P < 0.02) and 81 ± 5% ( P < 0.01), respectively. Renal pelvic perfusion with 4β-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) to activate PKC increased ARNA 27 ± 4% and renal pelvic release of PGE2 from 500 ± 59 to 1,113 ± 183 pg/min and substance P from 10 ± 2 to 30 ± 2 pg/min (all P < 0.01). Indomethacin abolished the increases in substance P release and ARNA. The PDBu-mediated increase in ARNA was also abolished by the substance P-receptor antagonist RP 67580. We conclude that bradykinin contributes to the activation of renal pelvic mechanosensitive neurons by activating PKC. PKC increases ARNA via a PGE2-induced release of substance P.
