Histamine regulation of adenylyl cyclase of enriched rat gastric parietal cells

The American Journal of Physiology

Abstract

Rat gastric parietal cells were isolated to 90% or greater purity by discontinuous gradient ultracentrifugation in sucrose-Ficoll. Adenylyl cyclase activity was initiated by histamine in the presence of 5'-guanylyl imidodiphosphate, but not by pentagastrin or acetylcholine. The concentration of histamine needed for half-maximal activation of adenylyl cyclase was 38 microM. The histamine H2-receptor antagonist, metiamide, inhibited histamine (100 microM) activation with a Ki of 0.9 microM. The effects of other histamine agonists and antagonists suggest that presence of H2-type histaminic receptors on parietal cells. Adenylyl cyclase activity was also stimulated by isoproterenol, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, but not by methoxamine. Half-maximal activation by isoproterenol occurred at 0.5 microM. Propranolol, but not phentolamine, prevented activation by these agents, indicating the presence of beta-adrenergic receptors on parietal cells. Prostaglandins E2 stimulated adenylyl cyclase of partially purified (30%), but not the enriched (90%), parietal cell populations.

Adrenergic Receptors: Trafficking

Adrenergic receptor trafficking is an active physiological process where adrenergic receptors are relocated from one region of the cell to another or from one type of cell to another. Discover the latest research on adrenergic receptor trafficking here.
