In smooth-muscle cells (SMC) isolated from rat aorta, angiotensin II stimulates a phospholipase C with subsequent formation of inositol trisphosphate (InsP3). Short-term (10 min) pretreatment of SMC with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA; 100 nM) decreases the angiotensin II-induced InsP3 formation. However, this inhibition is not observed after incubating the cells for 2 h with TPA. Longer-term pretreatments even lead to an enhanced generation of InsP3. This increased response to angiotensin II occurs without a significant change in the receptor number or Kd value of angiotensin II binding to the cells. The biologically inactive phorbol ester 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate was without effect on angiotensin II-stimulated InsP3 generation, irrespective of the time of preincubation. In parallel with this potentiation of angiotensin II-induced generation of InsP3 by TPA, a down-regulation of protein kinase C activity is observed. A 24 h pretreatment of SMC with TPA decreases protein kinase C activity to less than 10% of that of control cells. Longer-term pretreatment also increases the angiotensin II-induced release of Ca2+ and delays the decay of the transient Ca2+ increase. All these data suggest that protein kinase C exerts a negative feedback control on angiotensin II-stimulated polyphosphoinositide turnover, and that protein kinase C is an important factor in limiting the production of InsP3 in stimulated cells.

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.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.

D000804 Angiotensin II An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.
