Angiotensin II but not potassium induces subcellular redistribution of protein kinase C in bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. 1987

U Lang, and M B Vallotton

The distribution of calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) between cytosol and membrane fractions was examined in bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells treated with angiotensin II or potassium. Protein kinase C was isolated from cytosol and from detergent-solubilized particulate fractions by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. A major peak of activity for both the soluble and particulate forms of adrenal glomerulosa protein kinase C was eluted at 0.05-0.09 M NaCl. The soluble and particulate forms were found to constitute about 95 and 5%, respectively, of the total enzyme activity in unstimulated cells. A second peak of kinase activity was eluted with 0.15-0.19 M NaCl, which was not dependent on the presence of phospholipids. Exposure of isolated cells for 20 min to 10(-8) M angiotensin II resulted in a decrease in cytosolic activity to 30-40% of control values, and in a corresponding increase in protein kinase C activity associated with the particulate fraction. This hormone-induced redistribution was found to be dose-dependent with an ED50 of 2 nM for angiotensin II, and it occurred rapidly, reaching a plateau within 5-10 min. It was prevented by the specific antagonist [Sar1,Ala8]angiotensin II. By contrast, stimulation with 12 mM KCl did not change the subcellular distribution of protein kinase C activity. These results suggest that redistribution of protein kinase C represents an early step in the post-receptor activation cascade following angiotensin II, but not potassium stimulation of adrenal glomerulosa cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
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.

D000311 Adrenal Glands A pair of glands located at the cranial pole of each of the two KIDNEYS. Each adrenal gland is composed of two distinct endocrine tissues with separate embryonic origins, the ADRENAL CORTEX producing STEROIDS and the ADRENAL MEDULLA producing NEUROTRANSMITTERS.

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.
