چکیده

Continuous exposure of cells to hormonal agonists often causes a rapid waning of the stimulated response. This desensitization effect has been extensively studied in the beta-adrenergic receptor system, and attributed largely to the rapid phosphorylation of the receptor by two kinases. Over a similar time frame (seconds to minutes), agonists also trigger a selective loss in the capacity of receptors to bind hydrophilic but not hydrophobic ligands, a phenomenon termed sequestration. There is some evidence suggesting that sequestration represents the rapid internalization of receptors, but the functional significance of sequestration has remained unclear. Upon the removal of agonist, both desensitization and sequestration are readily reversed with similar kinetics (t1/2 approximately 3 min for both). To investigate the possibility that receptor sequestration is involved in this resensitization of the adenylyl cyclase response, we applied two distinct approaches to block receptor sequestration: by pretreating cells with sucrose and by creating a sequestration-defective beta 2-adrenergic receptor by site-specific mutagenesis. Both approaches effectively disabled receptor sequestration, with little effect on adenylyl cyclase stimulation or on desensitization. However, in both cases, no recovery from desensitization was apparent even 20 min after the removal of agonist. Similarly, pretreating cells with concanavalin A almost completely blocked receptor sequestration and resensitization but only partially inhibited other receptor functions. Our results therefore suggest that sequestration of beta 2-adrenergic receptors is a mechanism involved in reactivating and recycling desensitized receptors.

A Central Role for b-Arrestins and Clathrin-coated Vesicle-mediated Endocytosis in b2-Adrenergic Receptor Resensitization DIFFERENTIAL REGULATION OF RECEPTOR RESENSITIZATION IN TWO DISTINCT CELL TYPES*

G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) sequestration to endosomes is proposed to be the mechanism by which G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK)-phosphorylated receptors are dephosphorylated and resensitized. The identification of b-arrestins as GPCR trafficking molecules suggested that b-arrestins might represent critical determinants for GPCR resensitization. Therefore, we tested whether b2-adre...

Cell-type specific effects of endocytosis inhibitors on 5-hydroxytryptamine(2A) receptor desensitization and resensitization reveal an arrestin-, GRK2-, and GRK5-independent mode of regulation in human embryonic kidney 293 cells.

The effect of endocytosis inhibitors on 5-hydroxytryptamine(2A) (5-HT(2A)) receptor desensitization and resensitization was examined in transiently transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells and in C6 glioma cells that endogenously express 5-HT(2A) receptors. In HEK-293 cells, 5-HT(2A) receptor desensitization was unaffected by cotransfection with a dominant-negative mutant of dynamin (...

Oxidative stress decreases G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 in lymphocytes via a calpain-dependent mechanism.

G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) 2 plays a crucial role in regulating the extent of desensitization and resensitization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). We have shown that the expression level of GRK2 in lymphocytes decreases during inflammatory diseases such as arthritis. Reactive oxygen species play an important role in a variety of inflammatory conditions, including arthritis. ...
