Abstract：
:Enteroendocrine cells respond to nutrient and non-nutrient stimuli in the gut lumen. The intestinal hormone cholecystokinin (CCK) is secreted in response to luminal fatty acids, amino acids, peptides and proteins. The peptidomimetic cephalosporins have been reported to provide model, stable, compounds with similar secretagogue activity to peptide. Putative luminal stimuli also influence transcriptional activity in enteroendocrine cells, but the mechanisms are uncertain. In the present study we have investigated the control of c-fos expression in STC-1 cells (an enteroendocrine cell line). Peptidomimetics stimulated calcium-dependent release of CCK, and increased intracellular calcium, phosphorylation of p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) and c-fos mRNA abundance. Hypotonic stress also increased p42/44 MAP kinase phosphorylation and c-fos mRNA, but not CCK release. The increase in c-fos mRNA was strikingly potentiated by peptidomimetics in hypotonic medium. Increased c-fos expression, but not CCK release, was suppressed by the MAP kinase (MEK) inhibitor PD98059, and by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein. We conclude that in STC-1 cells, peptidomimetics act through the p42/44 MAP kinase pathway to increase c-fos expression but not exocytosis. Moreover, a putative non-nutritive stimulus, hypotonic stress, may interact with this pathway to enhance c-fos expression, independently of hormone release.
