CaM kinase II activation and phospholamban phosphorylation by SNP in murine gastric antrum smooth muscles.

چکیده
Elevations in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration activate the serine/threonine protein kinase Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II). We tested the hypothesis that increased sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase activity by phospholamban (PLB) phosphorylation contributes to smooth muscle relaxation by elevating the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) load and increasing the frequency of Ca(2+) release events from the SR. We have previously shown that caffeine or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) relaxes murine gastric fundus smooth muscles and increases PLB phosphorylation by CaM kinase II. These findings suggest that an increased SR Ca(2+) load increases the frequency of Ca(2+) transients from the SR and results in PLB phosphorylation by CaM kinase II, contributing to caffeine- or SNP-induced relaxation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of SNP on CaM kinase II and PLB phosphorylation in gastric antrum smooth muscles. SNP or 8-bromo-cGMP decreased the basal tone and amplitudes of spontaneous phasic contractions and activated CaM kinase II. SNP-induced relaxation and CaM kinase II activation were blocked by [1,2,4]oxadizolo-[4,3alpha]quinoxaline-1-one (ODQ) and inhibited by cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) or KN-93. SNP also increased PLBSer(16) and PLBThr(17) phosphorylation. Both PLBSer(16) and Thr(17) phosphorylation were ODQ sensitive. However, only PLBThr(17) phosphorylation was inhibited by CPA or KN-93. These results suggest that CaM kinase II activation and PLB phosphorylation participate in the relaxant effect of SNP on murine gastric antrum smooth muscles through a nitric oxide/guanylyl cyclase/cGMP pathway.

Roles of CaM kinase II and phospholamban in SNP-induced relaxation of murine gastric fundus smooth muscles.
The mechanisms by which nitric oxide (NO) relaxes smooth muscles are unclear. The NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) has been reported to increase the Ca2+ release frequency (Ca2+ sparks) through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and activate spontaneous transient outward currents (STOCs), resulting in smooth muscle relaxation. Our findings that caffeine relaxes and hyperpolarizes murine gastric fund...

Phospholamban (PLB) inhibits the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA), and this inhibition is relieved by Ca(2+) calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) phosphorylation. We previously reported significant differences in contractility, SR Ca(2+) release, and CaM kinase II activity in gastric fundus smooth muscles as a result of PLB phosphorylation by CaM kinase II.

متن کاملCaM kinase II and phospholamban contribute to caffeine-induced relaxation of murine gastric fundus smooth muscle.
Caffeine has been shown to increase the Ca(2+) release frequency (Ca(2+) sparks) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) through ryanodine-sensitive stores and relax gastric fundus smooth muscle. Increased Ca(2+) store refilling increases the frequency of Ca(2+) release events and store refilling is enhanced by CaM kinase II (CaMKII) phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLB). These findings suggest t...
