Effect of morphine on secretion of amylase from isolated parotid acini.
The effect of morphine on amylase secretion was studied in isolated rat parotid acinar cells. It was found that aluminum fluoride (AlCl3/NaF) and dibutyryl-cyclic AMP but not by cyclic AMP, enhanced amylase secretion. Cyclic AMP was effective in enhancing secretion following permeabilization of cells with alpha-toxin. Following treatment of cells with alpha-toxin, both GTP and GTP-gamma-S also enhanced secretion. Morphine reduced AlCl3/NaF- or GTP-induced secretion of amylase, but was without effect on GTP-gamma-S-induced secretion. Photoaffinity labeling by the use of [32P] 4-azidoanilido GTP revealed its incorporation into 43 kDa and 31 kDa proteins. Incorporation was further enhanced with AlCl3/NaF. Morphine reduced labeling of the 43 kDa protein. Immunoblot analysis identified the 43 kDa GTP binding protein as Gs. When [gamma 32P] GTP was preloaded into permeabilized acinar cells and its hydrolysis measured, morphine stimulated and AlCl3/NaF inhibited GTPase activity. These results suggested the involvement of Gs in secretion of amylase. Furthermore, morphine reduced secretion of amylase by stimulating GTPase activity and by reducing the incorporation of GTP into Gs.
