Effect of cholera enterotoxin on pacemaker rate and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate in isolated rabbit sinoatrial node. 1979

T Taniguchi, and M Fujiwara, and J J Lee, and H Hidaka

The positive chronotropic effect of cholera enterotoxin on isolated rabbit sinoatrial (S-A) node was investigated. This toxin produced a time and dose-related increase in pacemaker rate and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) levels and shifted to the left the dose-response curves of norepinephrine on the pacemaker rate and cyclic AMP content in the S-A node. Thus, the sensitivity of the S-A node to norepinephrine was increased by the toxin. These effects of the toxin were not blocked by propranolol. There was a linear relation between the increases in pacemaker rate and cyclic AMP content after application of both the toxin and norepinephrine. However, the slope of the regression line relating pacemaker rate to cyclic AMP level differed with these two agents. These results suggest that cholera enterotoxin increases pacemaker rate with activation of the adenylate cyclase system in the S-A node, but the mechanism differs from that of norepinephrine.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D002772 Cholera Toxin An ENTEROTOXIN from VIBRIO CHOLERAE. It consists of two major protomers, the heavy (H) or A subunit and the B protomer which consists of 5 light (L) or B subunits. The catalytic A subunit is proteolytically cleaved into fragments A1 and A2. The A1 fragment is a MONO(ADP-RIBOSE) TRANSFERASE. The B protomer binds cholera toxin to intestinal epithelial cells and facilitates the uptake of the A1 fragment. The A1 catalyzed transfer of ADP-RIBOSE to the alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G PROTEINS activates the production of CYCLIC AMP. Increased levels of cyclic AMP are thought to modulate release of fluid and electrolytes from intestinal crypt cells.

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.
