RESUMO
1. The effects of protein kinase C (PKC) activators and inhibitors on the mechanisms regulating cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis in dissociated bovine parathyroid cells loaded with fura-2 were examined. 2. Stepwise increases in the concentration of extracellular Ca2+ (from 0.5 to 2 or 3 mM) elicited transient followed by sustained increases in the concentration of intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). Cytosolic Ca2+ transients reflected the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ and influx of extracellular Ca2+ whereas sustained increases in [Ca2+]i resulted from the influx of extracellular Ca2+. Brief (1-2 min) pretreatment with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) shifted the concentration-response curve for extracellular Ca(2+)-induced cytosolic Ca2+ transients to the right without affecting the maximal response. Cytosolic Ca2+ transients elicited by extracellular Mg2+ were similarly affected by PMA. 3. These effects of PMA were mimicked by various other activators of PKC with the rank order of potency PMA > phorbol dibutyrate > bryostatin , > (-)indolactam V > mezerein. Isomers or analogues of these compounds that do not alter PKC activity (4 alpha-phorbols and (+)indolactam V) did not alter [Ca2+]i. 4. PKC activators depressed evoked increases in [Ca2+]i when influx of extracellular Ca2+ was blocked with Gd3+. Cytosolic Ca2+ transients elicited by extracellular Mg2+ in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ were similarly inhibited by PKC activators. Activation of PKC thus inhibits the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ elicited by extracellular divalent cations. 5. Increases in the concentration of extracellular Ca2+ caused corresponding increases in the formation of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ([3H]InsP3). Pretreatment with PMA shifted the concentration-response curve for extracellular Ca(2+)-induced [3H]InsP3 formation to the right without affecting the maximal response. 6. PKC activators also caused some depression of steady-state increases in [Ca2+]i elicited by extracellular Ca2+. In contrast, PMA did not affect increases in [Ca2+]i elicited by ionomycin or thapsigargin. 7. Ba2+ was used to monitor divalent cation influx. PMA decreased the rate of rise of the fluorescent signal elicited by extracellular Ba2+. 8. All these effects of PKC activators on [Ca2+]i were blocked or reversed by staurosporine at concentrations (30-100 nM) that inhibited PKC activity in parathyroid cells. Staurosporine alone potentiated cytosolic Ca2+ responses evoked by submaximal concentrations of extracellular divalent cations. 9. PKC thus depresses both the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ and the influx of extracellular Ca2+ in parathyroid cells. The effects on [Ca2+]i provide evidence for a Ca2+ receptor on the surface of parathyroid cells that uses transmembrane signalling mechanisms common to some other Ca(2+)-mobilizing receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
