Popis: | Activation of muscarinic receptors in rat parotid cells results in breakdown of polyphosphoinositides liberating inositol phosphates, including inositol trisphosphate. Formation of inositol trisphosphate appears independent of agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization, since neither formation nor degradation of inositol trisphosphate are appreciably altered in low-calcium media, and elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ with a calcium ionophore does not cause an increase in cellular inositol trisphosphate. Further, activation of substance P receptors and alpha 1-adrenoreceptors, but not beta-adrenoreceptors, increases inositol trisphosphate formation. The dose-response curve for methacholine activation of inositol trisphosphate formation more closely approximates the curve for receptor occupancy than for Ca2+-activated K+ release. These results are all consistent with the suggestion that inositol trisphosphate could function as a second messenger linking receptor occupation to cellular Ca2+ mobilization. |
