Desensitization of the neurokinin 1 receptor is mediated by the receptor carboxy-terminal region, but is not caused by receptor internalization.

چکیده
The carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic regions of the rat neurokinin 1 (substance P) and neurokinin 2 (neurokinin A) receptors have been exchanged to determine if this region of the neurokinin 1 receptor is involved in its desensitization. When expressed at similar levels in stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines, receptors containing the carboxy-terminal region of the neurokinin 1 receptor desensitized significantly more (as measured by reduction of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate response) when preexposed for 1 min to 1 microM neurokinin, indicating a role for the carboxy-terminal region of the neurokinin 1 receptor in its desensitization. Measurement of receptor internalization using radiolabeled neurokinins (0.3 nM) indicated that approximately 75-80% of the receptors were internalized in each cell line after 10 min at 37 degrees C, with no observable correlation between neurokinin receptor desensitization and internalization. Measurement of loss of receptor surface sites for cell lines CHO NK1 and CHO NK1NK2 following exposure to 1 microM substance P also indicated no obvious relationship between the percent desensitization and percent of receptors internalized. Also, two inhibitors of neurokinin 1 receptor internalization, phenylarsine oxide and hyperosmolar sucrose, did not inhibit neurokinin 1 receptor desensitization. The protein kinase inhibitors Ro 31-8220, staurosporine, and Zn2+ had no effect on neurokinin 1 receptor desensitization, indicating that the kinases affected by these agents are not rate-limiting in neurokinin 1 receptor desensitization in this system.

Desensitization of cannabinoid receptor signaling by a G-protein coupled receptor kinase (GRK) was examined using the Xenopus oocyte expression system. Application of a CB1 agonist, WIN 55,212-2, evoked a concentration-dependent increase in K+ conductance (Kir3) in oocytes coexpressing rat CB1 with the G-protein-gated, inwardly rectifying K+ channels Kir3.1 and Kir3.4.

متن کاملNeurokinin-1 receptor resensitization precedes receptor recycling.
Following agonist binding, neurokinin-1 receptors undergo rapid desensitization followed by internalization and recycling. Desensitization requires receptor phosphorylation but does not require internalization, whereas resensitization is thought to require internalization and recycling. Our previous data, however, have suggested that, following activation and desensitization, the return of resp...

Background: Androgens are critical steroid hormones in progression of spermatogenesis process and determine the male phenotype that their actions are mediated by the androgen receptor (AR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. In the Androgen receptor, transactivation domain encoded by exon 1, DNA binding domain encoded by exons 2 and 3, hinge region encoded by part of exon 4, and C-te...
متن کاملSerine 363 is required for nociceptin/orphanin FQ opioid receptor (NOPR) desensitization, internalization, and arrestin signaling.
We determined the role of carboxyl-terminal regulation of NOPR (nociceptin, orphanin FQ receptor) signaling and function. We mutated C-terminal serine and threonine residues and examined their role in NOPR trafficking, homologous desensitization, and arrestin-dependent MAPK signaling. The NOPR agonist, nociceptin, caused robust NOPR-YFP receptor internalization, peaking at 30 min. Mutation of s...
متن کاملA novel mechanism of neurokinin-1 receptor resensitization.
Prolonged or repeated activation of many G protein-coupled receptors induces rapid desensitization followed by a period during which receptors are resensitized. In this study, concanavalin A (Con A) and monensin were used to investigate the mechanisms of desensitization and resensitization of the neurokinin-1 receptor. Con A inhibits internalization, whereas monensin prevents receptor recycling...
