Effects of adenine nucleotides on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-induced calcium release in vascular smooth muscle cells.

Abstract: Effects of adenine nucleotides on the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IPs)-induced Ca release (IICR) mechanism were studied in smooth muscle cells of the guinea pig portal vein. A microfluorometry method of fura-2 was used to measure Ca release from saponin-skinned thin muscle strips (width ~ 200 wm, thickness 50-70 I~m, length 2-3 mm). About 80% of ionomycin-releasable Ca store was sensitive to IP s, of which ~ 20% was also sensitive to caffeine. The rate of Ca release by 0.1 ~M IP~ depended biphasically on ATP… Show more

“…The present experiments indicate that both RyR and IP3R occur in ICCs. It has been proposed that some smooth muscles have distinct types of ER (endoplasmic reticulum) in terms of the distribution of RyR and IP3R (Iino, 1991;Yamazawa et al, 1992), but that other smooth muscles do not. Since application of either drugs related to RyR or IP 3R terminated [Ca 2+ ]i oscillations, both receptors appear to exist in the ER responsible for the periodic Ca 2+ release in ICCs.…”

“…In contrast, in only one set of experiments using reconstituted InsP 3 R channels was channel P o reportedly potentiated by MgATP to a similar extent as free ATP (31). Potentiating effects of MgATP on InsP 3 R channel activity were also reported in some Ca 2ϩ flux and fluorescence imaging studies (135,195,272), but such studies are complicated by multiple cellular effects of MgATP.…”

“…Other nucleotides have also been reported to potentiate InsP 3 R channel activity, including ADP (135,195,272,316,317), AMP (135,195,272,281,316,317), and GTP (31,195,272,281,316,317). Adenine and adenosine were also reported to be active (317).…”

“…Thus, it is fascinating to speculate that the elaborated IP 3 R1 could act as a Ca 2ϩ -sensitive signaling molecule per se in addition to its function as a simple ligand-gated Ca 2ϩ channel. This conformational change also suggests that there is likely to be interplay between the Ca 2ϩ dependence of IP 3 R and both the allosteric regulation by ATP (55,56) and the cooperative gating by IP 3 (57).…”
