To investigate the response to catecholamine stimulation of adult cardiac myocytes and the metabolism of inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (1,4,5-IP3) and inositol (1,3,4,5)-tetrakisphosphate (IP4), we have employed a procedure developed in our laboratory to directly measure the mass of inositol phosphates after separation of individual isomers of inositol phosphates by high performance liquid chromatography. Control, unstimulated myocytes, contained low levels of inositol (1,4)-bisphosphate (1,4-IP2), inositol (1,3)-bisphosphate (1,3-IP2), inositol (3,4)-bisphosphate (3,4-IP2), inositol (1,3,4)-trisphosphate (1,3,4-IP3), 1,4,5-IP3 and IP4. Stimulation with norepinephrine for 30 seconds produced peak 1,4,5-IP3 and IP4 levels which rapidly returned to basal values by 60 seconds of norepinephrine stimulation. 1,4-IP2, 1,3-IP2 and 1,3,4-IP3 were increased markedly but only after stimulation with norepinephrine for 60 seconds. These results indicate a rapid yet transient increase in 1,4,5-IP3 and IP4 in response to norepinephrine stimulation and are the first quantitative measurements of the isomers of inositol phosphates in cardiac tissue.

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.

D015544 Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate Intracellular messenger formed by the action of phospholipase C on phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, which is one of the phospholipids that make up the cell membrane. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is released into the cytoplasm where it releases calcium ions from internal stores within the cell's endoplasmic reticulum. These calcium ions stimulate the activity of B kinase or calmodulin. 1,4,5-InsP3,Inositol 1,4,5-Triphosphate,Myo-Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate,1,4,5-IP3,Myoinositol 1,4,5-Triphosphate
