Treatment of intact human platelets with the tumour-promoting phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), specifically inhibited PGD2-induced cyclic AMP formation without affecting the regulation of cyclic AMP metabolism by PGI2, PGE1, 6-keto-PGE1, adenosine or adrenaline. This action of PMA was: (i) concentration-dependent; (ii) not mediated by evoked formation or release of endogenous regulators of adenylate cyclase activity (thromboxane A2 or ADP); (iii) mimicked by 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8) but not by 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (which does not activate protein kinase C); (iv) attenuated by Staurosporine. These results indicate that activation of protein kinase C in platelets may provide a regulatory mechanism to abrogate the effects of the endogenous adenylate cyclase stimulant PGD2 without compromising the effects of exogenous stimulants of adenylate cyclase (PGI2, 6-keto-PGE1, adenosine). |
