Effect of temperature on muscarinic cholinoceptor-mediated phosphoinositide metabolism and tension generation in bovine tracheal smooth muscle.
The effect of decreased temperature on phosphoinositide metabolism was studied in flurbiprofen pretreated bovine tracheal smooth muscle (BTSM) by investigating the consequences of cooling on muscarinic-cholinoceptor-mediated [3H]inositol phosphate ([3H]InsP) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) accumulation, basal phosphoinositidase C (PIC) activity and airways smooth muscle (ASM) tone. Cooling of [3H]Ins labelled BTSM slices from 37 degrees C to 27 degrees C for 20 min prior to the addition of agonist caused a substantial (73.0 +/- 2.5%) inhibition of carbachol (100 microM, 30 min)-stimulated [3H]InsP accumulation compared to values measured at 37 degrees C. The degree of inhibition of [3H]InsP accumulation was similar at all agonist time points (2-30 min) studied. In parallel experiments, cooling of unlabelled BTSM slices from 37 degrees C to 27 degrees C resulted in a 34% reduction in basal Ins(1,4,5)P3 mass (37 degrees C, 13.1 +/- 0.6 pmol mg-1 protein; 27 degrees C, 8.9 +/- 0.9 pmol mg-1 protein; P < 0.02) and markedly attenuated carbachol (100 microM)-stimulated increases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation. Basal PIC activity in the soluble fraction of BTSM homogenates, measured using a [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) /deoxycholate assay system, was also significantly lower at 27 degrees C compared to 37 degrees C (initial velocities of PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis of 853 +/- 167 (37 degrees C) and 418 +/- 119 (27 degrees C) pmol min-1 ml-1 (1/400 diluted) BTSM cytosol; p < 0.02).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
