title: Rapid dephosphorylation of protein kinase C substrates by protein kinase A activators results from inhibition of diacylglycerol release.
abstract: The biochemical events encompassing the dephosphorylation of protein kinase C substrates by protein kinase A activators have been investigated in a neurotumor cell line, NCB-20. Treatment of [32P]orthophosphate-labeled cells with protein kinase A activators (e.g. forskolin, dibutyryl cAMP, prostaglandin E1) resulted in an inhibition of protein kinase C activity due to a failure of the protein kinase C complex to translocate into the membrane. Phospholipase C activity, as measured by the synchronous release of diacylglycerol and inositol phosphates (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, and inositol 1-phosphate) in response to bradykinin, was inhibited up to 50% following exposure to protein kinase A activators. At the same time, phospholipase C-specific inositol phospholipid substrates (phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) were found to accumulate in NCB-20 cells following treatment with protein kinase A activators. This suggests that phospholipase C may be altered through protein kinase A-mediated protein phosphorylation. Second messenger generation (inositol phosphates, diacylglycerol, and Ca2+) is therefore inhibited through cyclic AMP-mediated shutdown of the inositol lipid cycle at the level of phospholipase C.
