Effects of isoproterenol and forskolin on carbachol- and fluoroaluminate-induced polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis, inositol trisphosphate production, and contraction in bovine iris sphincter smooth muscle: interaction between cAMP and IP3 second messenger systems.
We have investigated the effects of isoproterenol (ISO) and forskolin on carbachol(CCh)- and fluoroaluminate (AlF4-)-induced phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis, myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) production, 1,2-diacylglycerol, measured as phosphatidic acid (PA) formation, and contraction in the bovine iris sphincter smooth muscle. The data from these studies can be summarized as follows. (1) CCh (20 microM) stimulated significantly PIP2 hydrolysis, IP3 production, PA formation, and contraction. (2) Addition of ISO (0.1-25 microM), which raises the tissue cAMP level, to muscle precontracted with CCh attenuated PIP2 hydrolysis, IP3 production, PA formation and contraction in a time- and dose-dependent manner. (3) AlF4- (10 microM) induced a slow but progressive hydrolysis of PIP2, accompanied by parallel production of IP3, formation of PA, and contraction of the smooth muscle. The effects of AlF4- were dose-dependent and inhibited by deferoxamine, an Al3+ ion chelator. (4) Both forskolin (1-25 microM), which directly stimulates adenylate cyclase, and ISO inhibited the responses induced by AlF4- (10 microM) in a dose-dependent manner. (5) NaF (1-5 mM) had no effect on the activity of phospholipase C (PLC), purified from bovine iris sphincter. Furthermore, phosphorylation of the enzyme by catalytic subunit of protein kinase A had no inhibitory effect on PLC activity against PIP2. In conclusion, neither the muscarinic receptor nor PLC are the target sites for cAMP inhibition; instead the putative G-protein, which couples the activated muscarinic receptor to PLC, may be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This could attenuate the stimulation of PLC by the G-protein, thus resulting in inhibition of PIP2 hydrolysis and consequently leading to muscle relaxation. These results demonstrate cross-talk between the cAMP and IP3-Ca2+ second messenger systems and suggest that this could constitute a regulatory mechanism for the process of contraction-relaxation in smooth muscle.
