Adrenergic regulation of formation of inositol phosphates in rat submandibular acini. 1987

C Doughney, and R L Dormer, and M A McPherson

Formation of inositol phosphates in response to adrenergic secretagogues was studied in rat submandibular acini labelled with myo-[2-3H]inositol. Noradrenaline rapidly (within 5 s) increased radioactivity incorporated into inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate, with less rapid (within 1 min) increases in inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate being observed. Inositol polyphosphate formation was less sensitive to noradrenaline than was stimulation of mucin secretion and was mediated by stimulation of alpha- but not beta-adrenergic receptors. The beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol, which is a potent stimulator of mucin secretion [McPherson & Dormer (1984) Biochem. J. 224, 473-481] did not increase formation of inositol mono-, bis- or polyphosphates during a 15 min incubation. The results suggest that inositol phosphates do not mediate beta-adrenergic stimulation of mucin secretion in rat submandibular acini. In addition, rat submandibular acinar cells contain a Ca2+ pool which can be mobilized by isoproterenol [McPherson & Dormer (1984) Biochem. J. 224, 473-481], without involvement of inositol polyphosphates as second messengers.

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.
