The effect of
inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate
(IP3) receptor blockade on
platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF),
endothelin-1 (ET-1), or
-thrombin receptor-mediated intracellular
Ca2+
(Ca2+i) release was examined using fura 2 microspectrofluorometry in single Chinese hamster ovary cells and
myoblasts. Blockade of the IP3
receptor was achieved by microinjection of heparin or monoclonal
antibody (MAb) 18A10 into the IP3
type 1 receptor. Heparin completely inhibited
Ca2+i release after flash photolysis with
caged IP3 and after exposure to
PDGF and FGF. In contrast, heparin failed to block
Ca2+i release after
-thrombin and
ET-1. After application of ligand, IP3 levels were five- to sevenfold
higher for
-thrombin than for ET-1 or PDGF.
IP3 levels after PDGF and ET-1
were comparable. Similar to heparin, MAb 18A10 blocked
Ca2+i release after PDGF but failed to
block Ca2+i release after ET-1 or
-thrombin. These data suggest that the mechanisms of Ca2+i release by tyrosine kinase and
certain 7-transmembrane receptors may differ. Although both receptor
types use the IP3-signaling system, the ET-1 and
-thrombin receptors may have a second,
alternative mechanism for activating
Ca2+i release.
