title: The adenylate cyclase-cyclic AMP-protein kinase system in different cell populations of the guinea pig gastric mucosa.
abstract: In isolated guinea pig gastric mucous and enriched parietal cells it was tested whether or not cyclic AMP in response to histamine stimulation might reach concentrations sufficiently high to activate an intracellular cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and thereby mediate the acid response. Although histamine stimulated parietal cell adenylate cyclase to a greater extent than mucous cell adenylate cyclase, cyclic AMP levels in response to maximal histamine stimulation reached higher levels in mucous than in parietal cells. This had to be attributed to a five times higher phosphodiesterase activity in parietal cell than in mucous cell populations. In the absence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobutylmethylxanthine exposure of the cells to histamine only in mucous cells produced an increase in cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio, but not in parietal cells. Dibutyryl-cyclic AMP induced cyclic AMP accumulation in parietal cell populations was compared to dibutyryl-cyclic AMP induced H+ secretion, as measured by 14C-aminopyrine uptake. A maximal acid response was associated with an intracellular cyclic AMP level of approximately 300 pmol/10(6) cells, which was never reached by maximal histamine stimulation even not in the presence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor. It is concluded that activation of the parietal cell cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase is one way for stimulating H+ secretion, but that the acid response elicited by histamine requires another intracellular pathway.
