Popis: | The effect of (+/-)cis-2-methylspilo(1,3-oxathiolane-5,3')quinuclidine (SNI-2011) on the secretory pathway of amylase in parotid tissues was investigated. SNI-2011-induced exocytosis was inhibited by a cell-permeable Ca(2+) chelator or inhibitors of calmodulin kinase II, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), soluble guanyl cyclase, cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), and myosin light chain kinase, suggesting that these enzymes were coupled with the exocytosis. Stimulation with SNI-2011 of isolated rat parotid acinar cells loaded with 4,5-diaminofluorescein/diacetate (DAF-2/DA) induced a fast increase in DAF fluorescence corresponding to an increase in the NO production. SNI-2011-induced amylase secretion from parotid tissues in nNOS knockout mice has not been observed yet in spite of the expression of muscarinic M(3) receptors and the maintenance of secretory response to isoproterenol in the tissues. These results indicate the implication of the activation of Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent enzymes and NOS-PKG signaling pathway in SNI-2011-induced amylase secretion from parotid acinar cells. |
