Previously it was shown by us and others in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes that the desensitization of the phenylephrine (PHE)- and endothelin-1 (ET-1)-mediated response of phospholipase C (PLC) was receptor-specific. The aim of this study was to characterize receptor-dependent specificities downstream of PLC. PHE (10(-4)M) as well as ET-1 (10(-8) M) stimulated the total [3H]inositolphosphate ([3H]InsPn, predominantly [3H]Ins(4)P) formation to about the same extent whereas Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 did not increase. Yet, ET-1 but not PHE stimulated Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(3,4)Pn formation. Activation of PLC in saponin-permeabilized cells by GTP gamma S- and Ca2+ gave predominantly the formation of Ins(1,4)P2. The PHE- and ET-1-mediated increase of [3H]1,2-diacylglycerol was significant after respectively 16 and 8 min. PHE but not ET-1 stimulated phosphorylation of a 30 kDa protein which was likely of myofibrillar origin. It is concluded that receptor-dependent specificities exist not only at the level of PLC but also downstream.

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.
