SummaryThe effect of Mitomycin C on aggregation, adenosine 3′, 5′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) metabolism and reactions induced by thrombin was studied in rabbit platelets. Mitomycin C inhibited the platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate or thrombin. The level of radioactive cyclic AMP derived from 8-14C adenine or 8-14C adenosine increased after incubating intact platelets with Mitomycin G. Formation of radioactive adenosine triphosphate also increased though mitochondrial oxidation was not stimulated. Similar effect was observed also in rabbit liver. Mitomycin C failed to stimulate platelet adenyl cyclase but inhibited cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in the absence of theophylline. In the platelets preincubated with Mitomycin C, thrombin-induced inhibition of adenyl cyclase, stimulation of membrane-bound cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, and release of 250,000 dalton protein from platelet membranes were prevented. These results suggest that Mitomycin C will affect cellular membrane structure and function, and this extranuclear effect of Mitomycin C will lead to inhibition of aggregation in blood platelets.

Phenylisopropyl Adenosine

Glucagon (10nM) prevented insulin (10nM) from activating the plasma-membrane cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. This effect of glucagon was abolished by either PIA [N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine] (100nM) or adenosine (10 microM). Neither PIA nor adenosine exerted any effect on the plasma-membrane cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity either alone or in combination with glucagon. Furthermore, PIA and adenosine did not potentiate the action of insulin in activating this enzyme. 2-Deoxy-adenosine (10 microM) was ineffective in mimicking the action of adenosine. The effect of PIA in preventing the blockade by glucagon of insulin's action was inhibited by low concentrations of theophylline. Half-maximal effects of PIA were elicited at around 6nM-PIA. It is suggested that adenosine is exerting its effects on this system through an R-type receptor. This receptor does not appear to be directly coupled to adenylate cyclase, however, as PIA did not affect either the activity of adenylate cyclase or intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations. Insulin's activation of the plasma-membrane cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, in the presence of both glucagon and PIA, was augmented by increasing intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations with either dibutyryl cyclic AMP or the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor Ro-20-1724. PIA also inhibited the ability of glucagon to uncouple (desensitize) adenylate cyclase activity in intact hepatocytes. This occurred at a half-maximal concentration of around 3 microM-PIA. However, if insulin (10 nM) was also present in the incubation medium, PIA exerted its action at a much lower concentration, with a half-maximal effect occurring at around 4 nM.

Treatment of intact hepatocytes with glucagon led to the rapid desensitization of adenylate cyclase, which reached a maximum around 5 min after application of glucagon, after which resensitization ensued. Complete resensitization occurred some 20 min after the addition of glucagon. In hepatocytes which had been preincubated with the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), glucagon elicited a stable desensitized state where resensitization failed to occur even 20 min after exposure of hepatocytes to glucagon. Treatment with IBMX alone did not elicit desensitization. The action of IBMX in stabilizing the glucagon-mediated desensitized state was mimicked by the non-methylxanthine cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor Ro-20-1724 [4-(3-butoxy-4-methoxylbenzyl)-2-imidazolidinone]. IBMX inhibited the resensitization process in a dose-dependent fashion with an EC50 (concn. giving 50% of maximal effect) of 26 +/- 5 microM, which was similar to the EC50 value of 22 +/- 6 microM observed for the ability of IBMX to augment the glucagon-stimulated rise in intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations. Pre-treatment of hepatocytes with IBMX did not alter the ability of either angiotensin or the glucagon analogue TH-glucagon, ligands which did not increase intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations, to cause the rapid desensitization and subsequent resensitization of adenylate cyclase. It is suggested that, although desensitization of glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase is elicited by a cyclic AMP-independent process, the resensitization of adenylate cyclase can be inhibited by a process which is dependent on elevated cyclic AMP concentrations. This action can be detected by attenuating the degradation of cyclic AMP by using inhibitors of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase.

The activities of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (3′,5′-cyclic nucleotide 5′-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) and adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] and calmodulin content during development of chick ventricular myocardium were determined. The specific activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was relatively low in early embryos, increased during embryogenesis by about 4-fold to reach highest values just before hatching, and then decreased by approx. 30% within 1 week after hatching. In contrast, adenylate cyclase did not change during embryonic development, but increased by approx. 50% within 1 week after hatching. Calmodulin content remained constant at 9 micrograms/g wet wt. during embryonic development and decreased to 6 micrograms/g wet wt. by 1 week after hatching. DEAE-Sephacel chromatography of chick ventricular supernatant revealed a single major form of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity in early embryonic (9-day E) and hatched (6-day H) chicks. This enzyme form was eluted at approx. 0.27 M-sodium acetate, hydrolysed both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, and was sensitive to stimulation by Ca2+-calmodulin, with an apparent Km for calmodulin of approx. 1 nM. In contrast, ventricular supernatant from late-embryonic (18-day E) chicks contained two forms of phosphodiesterase separable on DEAE-Sephacel: the same form as that seen at other ages, plus a cyclic AMP-specific form which was eluted at approx. 0.65 M-sodium acetate and was insensitive to stimulation by Ca2+-calmodulin. The ontogenetic changes in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity in chick ventricular myocardium are consistent with reported ontogenetic changes in the steady-state contents of cyclic AMP in this tissue and suggest that this enzyme may be responsible for the changes that occur in this nucleotide during development of chick myocardium.
