title: [Effect of cGMP-dependent signaling system in regulation of osmotic permeability in the frog urinary bladder].
abstract: In frogs' isolated urinary bladders, contribution of cytosolic guanylate cyclase and cGMP-dependent protein kinase to regulation of osmotic permeability was studied. ODQ (25-100 microM), an inhibitor of cytosolic guanylate cyclase induced an increase of vasotocin-activated osmotic permeability but had no effect on the hormone-activated transepithelial urea transport. In isolated mucosal epithelial cells ODQ (50 microM) decreased the concentration of intracellular cGMP. In these cells L-NAME (0.5 nM), an inhibitor of NO synthase, also decreased the level of cGMP whereas cAMP was significantly increased. 8-pCPT-cGMP (25 and 50 microM), a permeable cGMP analogue which selectively activates protein kinase G, inhibited vasotocin-induced increase of water transport along osmotic gradient indicating that protein kinase G is involved in regulation of water reabsorption. The data obtained show that NO/cGMP signalling system in the frog urinary bladder appears to be a negative modulator of vasotocin-activated increase of osmotic permeability.
