PMID- 10859591 OWN - NLM STAT- MEDLINE DCOM- 20001002 LR - 20151119 IS - 0143-4160 (Print) IS - 0143-4160 (Linking) VI - 27 IP - 5 DP - 2000 May TI - Purinergic responses in HT29 colonic epithelial cells are mediated by G protein alpha -subunits. PG - 247-55 AB - Using Fura-2 to measure changes in intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)), we show that P(2U)receptors in HT29 cells trigger an increase in [Ca(2+)](i)by pertussis toxin-insensitive G proteins. We then use replication-deficient adenoviruses expressing wild-type and dominant negative mutants of G(alpha q)and G(alpha i2), antisense directed against G(alpha q)or the C-terminal fragment of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK-CT) to identify these G proteins. We find the [Ca(2+)](i)response to UTP is not affected by increased expression of the wild-type G(alpha q), wild-type G(alpha i2)or beta ARK-CT, while it is blocked by over-expression of dominant negative G(alpha q). The timecourse of the UTP response is, however, altered by wild-type G(alpha q)and is only weakly inhibited by antisense G(alpha q). This suggests that the P(2U)response is mediated, at least partially, by a G protein distinct from G(alpha q). In contrast, the M(3)muscarinic response is inhibited by over-expression of antisense against G(alpha q), or over-expression of beta ARK-CT, a finding in agreement with our previous observation that the muscarinic response in HT29 cells is mediated by the beta gamma-subunits of G(q). We also find that P(2U)and M(3)receptors do not control identical Ca(2+)stores, suggesting that differential activation of G proteins can lead to Ca(2+)release from distinct stores.
