Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor can stimulate macrophage proliferation via persistent activation of Na+/H+ antiport. Evidence for two distinct roles for Na+/H+ antiport activation.
Macrophages respond to a variety of extracellular stimuli which can modulate the proliferation, development, activation and functional activity of these cells. The effects of two such agents, granulocytemacrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF, which stimulates proliferation) and platelet-activating factor (PAF, which stimulates chemotaxis and bactericidal activity), on cellular signal tran...
متن کاملMetabolic Functions of Myo-inositol VIII. ROLE OF INOSITOL IN Na+-K+ TRANSPORT AND IN Na+- AND K+-ACTIVATED ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATASE OF KB CELLS*
The effects of myo-inositol (inositol) deprivation on the Na+ and K+ transport system of KB cells and on the Na+and I(+activated adenosine triphosphatase of cell-free extracts were investigated. Kinetic studies under presteady state conditions showed that inositol deprivation causes a decrease of the initial rates of K+ influx and Na+ efflux. Both the V,,, of K+ influx and the K, for K+ are dec...
متن کاملEffect of catecholamines on Na/H exchange in vascular smooth muscle cells
Catecholamines were found to activate Na/H exchange in a concentration-dependent manner in primary cultures of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). The potency order was found to be epinephrine greater than norepinephrine greater than isoproterenol. The major pathway for catecholamine effects appeared to be via interaction with an alpha 1 adrenergic receptor. In addition, it was found that alph...
متن کاملPhospholipase C-delta1 modulates sustained contraction of rat mesenteric small arteries in response to noradrenaline, but not endothelin-1.
Vasoconstrictors activate phospholipase C (PLC), which hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)), leading to calcium mobilization, protein kinase C activation, and contraction. Our aim was to investigate whether PLC-delta(1), a PLC isoform implicated in alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor signaling and the pathogenesis of hypertension, is involved in noradrenaline (NA) or endothelin (ET-1)-...
متن کاملLight- and GTP-activated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate in squid photoreceptor membranes.
Light stimulates the hydrolysis of exogenous, [3H]inositol-labeled phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) added to squid photoreceptor membranes, releasing inositol trisphosphate (InsP3). At free calcium levels of 0.05 microM or greater, hydrolysis of the labeled lipid is stimulated up to 4-fold by GTP and light together, but not separately. This activity is the biochemical counterpart of...
