Human airway smooth muscle expresses 7 isoforms of adenylyl cyclase: a dominant role for isoform V

Abstract: Adenylyl cyclases are a nine-member family of differentially regulated enzymes responsible for the synthesis of cAMP. cAMP is an important second messenger that contributes to the regulation of airway smooth muscle tone. However, little is known regarding the expression and regulation of adenylyl cyclase isoforms in airway smooth muscle cells. Nondegenerate specific primers were designed for all nine known isoforms of human adenylyl cyclase. RT-PCR experiments were performed using total RNA extracted from whol… Show more

“…At first glance, the AC isoforms expressed by hBSMC that we report appear different from those previously reported in studies of airway smooth muscle and primary cultured cells isolated from human samples (Xu et al, 2001). Xu et al (2001) detected mRNA for AC isoforms 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9.…”

“…Xu et al (2001) detected mRNA for AC isoforms 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9. They performed immunoblot analysis on whole-cell lysates and detected expression of just AC5/6 (using the same antibody used here, which is unable to distinguish between these two isoforms).…”

“…We previously found that adenylyl cyclase V and AC6 are the major adenylyl cyclase isoforms expressed in cultured human airway smooth muscle cells (38). Thus the TNF-␣-induced sensitization of adenylyl cyclase via Raf-1-dependent pathway likely involves these adenylyl cyclase isoforms.…”
