thapsigargin and phorbol

In order to study the cellular mechanisms involved in peptide YY (PYY) and truncated glucagon-like peptide 1 (TGLP1) release, a model of rat intestinal cells dispersed with collagenase/EDTA and enriched for L-cells by counterflow elutriation was developed. Elutriation significantly increased in the harvested cells the concentration of PYY (828 +/- 97 vs 151 +/- 16 fmol/10(6) cells) and TGLP1 (1,094 +/- 109 vs 167 +/- 20 fmol/10(6) cells), and brought the contribution of L-cells to 4-5% of the total cell population. Forskolin (1-10 microM) and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP, 1-5 mM) increased over an 1-h period PYY and TGLP1 secretion, with a maximal rate at 5 microM forskolin (232% and 250% of basal, respectively) and at 5 mM dbcAMP (347% and 234% of basal, respectively). Furthermore, 3-isobutylmethyl xanthine (IBMX, 1 mM) increased PYY (226% of basal) and TGLP1 (198% of basal) secretion. A combination of both 10 microM forskolin and 1 mM IBMX stimulated in an additive manner PYY (389% of basal) and TGLP1 (393% of basal) secretion. TPA (12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, 0.1-1 microM) dose-dependently increased the secretion of PYY and TGLP1 (maximal release at 328% and 326%, respectively), whereas 4 alpha-phorbol was ineffective. Ionomycin (1-5 microM) and thapsigargin (0.1-5 microM) produced a dose-dependent increase in PYY and TGLP1 release (272% and 337% of basal for 5 microM ionomycin; 342% and 339% of basal for 5 microM thapsigargin, respectively). At gel chromatography, the immunoreactive PYY and TGLP1 material in cell extracts and in release medium co-eluted with the respective synthetic peptides.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
