Protein kinase A and/or C inhibitors potentiate isoproterenol-induced cyclic AMP accumulation in intact human lymphocytes.

Abstract:

:The objective of the present study was to investigate the roles of protein kinase A and/or C in agonist-induced beta adrenoceptor activation in intact human lymphocytes. LYmphocytes from healthy subjects were incubated with isoproterenol and phosphodiesterase inhibitor (IBMX, 1.0 mM) after 20 minutes of preincubation with (or without) various compounds possessing protein kinase A and/or C inhibitory activities. These compounds included the relatively selective protein kinase C (PK-C) inhibitors (W-7, calmidazolium, polymyxin B, neomycin, tamoxifen and clomiphene), purified protein inhibitors of protein kinase A (PK-A) (obtained synthetically, or purified from bovine hearts and porcine hearts) and the two compounds (H-7, H-9), which have been found to inhibit both PK-A and PK-C. The results showed that all PK-C inhibitors alone decreased cellular basal cAMP levels while inhibitors of PK-A as well as both H-7 and H-9 increased basal cAMP levels in a dose dependent manner at certain concentrations. All inhibitors studied potentiated isoproterenol-induced cAMP accumulation. The protein kinase A and C inhibitor, H-7, also potentiated PGE1 (but not forskolin)-induced cAMP accumulation. In contrast, the protein kinase C activator, PMA, inhibited isoproterenol- and PGE1- (but not forskolin) induced cAMP accumulation. These data suggest that the potentiating effects of PK-A and/or C inhibitors may be related to the inhibition of PK-A and/or PK-C, both of which have been shown to be involved in beta 2 adrenoceptor desensitization and phosphorylation.
