摘要
Regulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump in the cell is of critical importance in maintaining calcium homeostasis. Since protein kinase C is known to regulate functions of cellular proteins by direct phosphorylation or by inducing their gene expression, we investigated the possible involvement of protein kinase C in the regulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump. The Ca2+ pump was isolated by immunoprecipitation from [P-32]orthophosphate-labeled cultured rat aortic endothelial cells grown in the absence or presence of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C. PMA treatment of cells led to a rapid increase in the phosphorylation level (1.3-fold) within 5 min and a further increase to 2.9-fold after 3 h. Prolonged PMA treatment also induced the accumulation of the Ca2+ pump mRNA, followed by increased levels of the pump protein. The peak level of the pump mRNA induction occurred at 4 h and was 8-20-fold higher than the control culture without PMA. The rate of the Ca2+ pump protein accumulation was slower, reaching a maximum of 3.5-fold after 6 h. Induction of the pump mRNA was suppressed by the protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine and by down-regulation of protein kinase C. Inactive phorbol ester 4-alpha-phorbol didecanoate also failed to mimic the PMA effect. These results suggest that the induction of Ca2+ pump expression is mediated by a protein kinase C-dependent mechanism. Furthermore, since the induction of the Ca2+ pump mRNA was blocked when cycloheximide and PMA were added together, this suggests that newly synthesized protein factor is needed to produce the mRNA induction. Our results suggest that protein kinase C is involved in the regulation of the Ca2+ pump in endothelial cells. At the protein level, it modifies the Ca2+ pump by phosphorylation, and at the gene level, it stimulates the expression of its mRNA and thereby increases the amount of the pump protein.
