Abstract

Protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation events are considered to be key steps in the control of agonist-induced pancreatic enzyme release. This study was designed to characterize the role of serine/threonine phosphatases in phosphoinositol/calcium- and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-mediated stimulus-secretion coupling in rat pancreatic acini. Isolated rat pancreatic acini were incubated with either the serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitors okadaic acid, calyculin A, and cyclosporin A or the calmodulin antagonist W-7. Amylase secretion was stimulated with cholecystokinin (CCK)-8, secretin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) or pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), and the intracellular second messengers calcium and cAMP were determined. Okadaic acid or calyculin A reduced secretagogue-stimulated amylase release to near-basal levels. Inhibition of cAMP-mediated secretion (by VIP, secretin, or PACAP) occurred at lower concentrations than with inositol triphosphate (IP3)/Ca(2+)-dependent enzyme release (via CCK). Cyclosporin A diminished CCK-8-stimulated secretion by 35%, whereas secretion in response to cAMP-mediated secretagogues was not affected. W-7 completely inhibited acinar secretio...Continue Reading
