Popis: Inositol phosphate formation in response to cholinergic stimulation was studied in cultured human sweat duct cells, prelabelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol. Formation of inositol mono-, bis-, tris- and tetrakisphosphates was increased after 15 min stimulation by 30 microM carbachol. Formation of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate was significantly increased within 1 min at carbachol concentrations between 10 microM and 100 microM. No detectable increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation was observed at 15 s or 1 min, but an increase was observed after 15 min at a carbachol concentration of 30-100 microM. The data are consistent with an involvement of inositol polyphosphates in the biphasic response of ion transport, to cholinergic stimulation in these cells (see Pederson, P.S. (1986) 6th Professional Conference "Broken Arrow 1986". Genetic and Eptihelial Dysfunction in Cystic Fibrosis (Riordan, J.R. and Buchwalds, M., eds.), Alan Liss, New York and Pedersen, P.S. (1987) Med. Sci. Res. 15, 769-770) and suggest a different pattern of metabolism from exocrine acinar cells.
