Previous studies in microdissected rat inner medullary
collecting duct (IMCD) segments have demonstrated that carbachol,
arginine vasopressin (AVP), and the
V2 vasopressin receptor agonist
1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) induce a
similar increase in intracellular Ca2+. The present study tested
whether these agents activate the phosphoinositide hydrolysis pathway.
In intracellular inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) measurements, we found
that IMCD suspensions incubated with AVP or DDAVP
(10
8 M) displayed no
measurable increase in IP3,
whereas IMCD suspensions incubated with the muscarinic cholinergic
agent carbachol (100 µM) induced a significant increase in
IP3 production. Similarly, carbachol, but not AVP or DDAVP, induced a significant increase in
membrane-associated protein kinase C (PKC) enzyme activity. To test
what specific PKC isoforms are activated by carbachol in IMCD, we first
characterized the PKC isoforms in IMCD suspensions by immunoblotting
using affinity-purified antibodies against different PKC isoforms. We
identified one classic PKC isoform (
), three novel PKC isoforms
(
,
,
), and one atypical PKC isoform (
) in the
IMCD. Carbachol induced a cytosol-to-membrane translocation of the
PKC-
isoform but did not alter the distribution of any other
isoform. In contrast, AVP had no effect on the distribution of any PKC
isoform tested. These data, taken together, demonstrate that carbachol
is an activator of the phosphoinositide hydrolysis pathway in IMCD but
do not demonstrate signaling via this pathway in response to AVP or
DDAVP. These results suggest that the previously observed
AVP-stimulated Ca2+ mobilization
in IMCD may be due to a mechanism other than activation of the
phosphoinositide hydrolysis pathway.
