摘要

The roles of cyclic AMP and calcium in the regulation of serotonin N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity were studied in low density monolayer cultures of chick retinal photoreceptors and neurons. Photoreceptor-enriched retinal cell cultures were prepared from embryonic day 6 retinas and cultured for 6 days. NAT activity in these cultures could be induced by treatment with cyclic AMP protagonists, 8Br-cyclic AMP, forskolin, and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), or by treatment with depolarizing concentrations of extracellular K+. The stimulatory effect of K+, which involves Ca2+ influx through dihydropyridine-sensitive channels, was mediated at least in part by cyclic AMP, as indicated by the following observations. Depolarizing concentrations of K+ stimulated the formation of cyclic AMP, and the stimulatory effects of K+ on both cyclic AMP formation and on NAT activity were synergistically potentiated by the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). MDL 12,330A, a putative adenylate cyclase inhibitor, inhibited K(+)-evoked cyclic AMP accumulation and induction of NAT activity over the identical concentration range. In contrast, MDL 12,300A failed to inhibit the induction of NAT elicited by 8Br-cyclic AMP. H-89, an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, antagonized the induction of NAT activity by either forskolin or K+ with equal potency for both stimuli. These results suggest that cyclic AMP plays an essential role in the induction of NAT activity that occurs as a consequence of membrane depolarization. Cyclic AMP and Ca2+ may also interact at a step distal to adenylate cyclase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
