Urocortin hyperpolarizes stomach smooth muscle via activation of Ca2+-sensitive K+ currents.

Abstract:

:The effect of urocortin (Uro), a recently discovered neuropeptide with selectivity towards corticotropin-releasing hormone type 2 receptor, was tested on whole cell currents expressed by guinea-pig gastric antrum smooth muscle cells. Uro (1 pmol/l-1 nmol/l) caused a concentration-dependent increase of Ca2+-sensitive K currents (I(K)) up to 500% as compared to control currents and did not affect the kinetics and voltage-dependence of inward Ca2+ currents. The I(K)-increasing effect of Uro was fully antagonized by preliminary emptying of intracellular Ca2+ stores with ryanodine and cyclopiazonic acid, as well as by bath application of selective blockers of adenylyl cyclase and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), but not by inhibitors of guanylyl cyclase, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, and protein kinase C. Comparable I(K) increase was obtained by forskolin (activator of adenylyl cyclase), Sp-cAMPS (activator of PKA), or by intracellular application of the catalytic subunit of PKA. It was concluded that Uro binds to a selective receptor in antral smooth muscle cells where it stimulates I(K) via PKA-dependent increase of Ca2+ concentration near the plasma membrane due to enhanced release from intracellular calcium stores.
