Endothelin type B receptor-induced sustained Ca2+ influx involves G(q/11)/phospholipase C-independent, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-dependent activation of Na+/H+ exchanger.

چکیده
The mechanism for sustained Ca2+ influx activated by G protein-coupled receptors was examined. In Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing recombinant human endothelin type B receptor (ET(B)R) and endogenous P2Y receptor (P2Y-R), endothelin-1 elicited a sustained Ca2+ influx depending on G(q/11 )protein, phospholipase C (PLC), Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK), whereas P2Y-R-induced sustained Ca2+ influx was negligible. Functional studies showed that NHE activation by ET(B)R was mediated via p38MAPK but not G(q/11)/PLC, while that by P2Y-R involves only G(q/11)/PLC/p38MAPK. These results suggest that G(q/11)/PLC-independent NHE activation via p38MAPK plays an important role in ET(B)R- mediated sustained Ca2+ influx.

Sustained smooth-muscle contraction or its experimental counterpart, Ca2+ sensitization, by G(q/13)-coupled receptor agonists is mediated via RhoA-dependent inhibition of MLC (myosin light chain) phosphatase and MLC20 (20 kDa regulatory light chain of myosin II) phosphorylation by a Ca2+-independent MLCK (MLC kinase). The present study identified the corresponding pathways initiated by G(i)-cou...

We have shown previously that cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) is responsible for endothelin-1-induced release of arachidonic acid for prostaglandin synthesis in cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (CISM) cells [Husain and Abdel-Latif (1998) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1392, 127-144]. Here we show that p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, but not p42/p44 MAP kinases, plays an important rol...
متن کاملDifferential MAP kinase activation and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger phosphorylation by H(2)O(2) in rat cardiac myocytes.
Bursts in reactive oxygen species production are important mediators of contractile dysfunction during ischemia-reperfusion injury. Cellular mechanisms that mediate reactive oxygen species-induced changes in cardiac myocyte function have not been fully characterized. In the present study, H(2)O(2) (50 microM) decreased contractility of adult rat ventricular myocytes. H(2)O(2) caused a concentra...
