Abstract

In a previous study, we characterized prostanoid and thrombin receptors expressed on a megakaryoblastic cell line, MEG-01s (Blood 78, 2328-2336, 1991). In this study, we examines the mechanism of cross-talk between intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and cAMP signalings through prostanoid and thrombin receptors. Addition of a thromboxane (TX)A2 mimetic (U46619 or STA2) or thrombin stimulated the formation of inositol phosphates and dose-dependently augmented a prostaglandin (PG)I2 mimetic (iloprost)- or forskolin-induced cAMP formation. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and ionomycin, to lesser extent, also augmented iloprost-induced cAMP formation. The enhancing effect of U46619 or TPA on cAMP formation was inhibited by prolonged pretreatment of the cells with TPA (2.5 microM, 24 h), but not with calmodulin-antagonists; W-7, W-5, or KN-62. The elevation of [Ca2+]i induced by thrombin, STA2 or PGE2 was significantly suppressed by pretreatment of the cells with TPA (100 nM) as well as cAMP mimetics such as dibutyryl cAMP (5 mM), forskolin (5 microM) and iloprost (1 microM). These results suggest the key role of PKC on the cross-talk between [Ca2+]i and cAMP signalings through prostanoid and thrombin receptors; PKC, which is ac...Continue Reading
