It has been reported that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) produces inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). The purpose of this study is to investigate whether diacylglycerol produced by ANP affects ANP-induced cyclic GMP (cGMP) accumulation through the activation of protein kinase C. Short-term (15 min) treatment of rat aortic VSMC with protein kinase C activating phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 100 nM) decreased ANP (100 nM)-induced cGMP accumulation by 34.7% in the presence of IBMX (0.5 mM). However, the long-term (24 h) treatment to decrease the activity of protein kinase C led to an enhancement of the cGMP accumulation by 69.6% compared with that of control VSMC. There were no significant differences in Bmax and Kd for ANP and ANP-dependent particular guanylyl cyclase activity between long-term PMA-treated and control VSMC. In the present study, we show that the activation of protein kinase C attenuates the cGMP accumulation induced by ANP and that down-regulation of protein kinase C results in an enhancement of the cGMP accumulation. These data are consistent with the role of protein kinase C as a negative regulator in ANP-receptor/guanylyl cyclase pathway.

D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.

D006152 Cyclic GMP Guanosine cyclic 3',5'-(hydrogen phosphate). A guanine nucleotide containing one phosphate group which is esterified to the sugar moiety in both the 3'- and 5'-positions. It is a cellular regulatory agent and has been described as a second messenger. Its levels increase in response to a variety of hormones, including acetylcholine, insulin, and oxytocin and it has been found to activate specific protein kinases.
