title: Dopaminergic inhibition of secretin-stimulated choleresis by increased PKC-gamma expression and decrease of PKA activity.
abstract: To determine the role and mechanisms of action by which dopaminergic innervation modulates ductal secretion in bile duct-ligated rats, we determined the expression of D1, D2, and D3 dopaminergic receptors in cholangiocytes. We evaluated whether D1, D2 (quinelorane), or D3 dopaminergic receptor agonists influence basal and secretin-stimulated choleresis and lumen expansion in intrahepatic bile duct units (IBDU) and cAMP levels in cholangiocytes in the absence or presence of BAPTA-AM, chelerythrine, 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methyl piperazine (H7), or rottlerin. We evaluated whether 1) quinelorane effects on ductal secretion were associated with increased expression of Ca(2+)-dependent PKC isoforms and 2) increased expression of PKC causes inhibition of PKA activity. Quinelorane inhibited secretin-stimulated choleresis in vivo and IBDU lumen space, cAMP levels, and PKA activity in cholangiocytes. The inhibitory effects of quinelorane on secretin-stimulated ductal secretion and PKA activity were blocked by BAPTA-AM, chelerythrine, and H7. Quinelorane effects on ductal secretion were associated with activation of the Ca(2+)-dependent PKC-gamma but not other PKC isoforms. The dopaminergic nervous system counterregulates secretin-stimulated ductal secretion in experimental cholestasis.
