Formation and metabolism of [3H]inositol phosphates in AR42J pancreatoma cells. Substance P-induced Ca2+ mobilization in the apparent absence of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase activity

After 2 days of incubation of AR42J pancreatoma cells with 400 microM [3H]inositol, the specific radioactivity of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and the specific radioactivity of [3H]inositol were similar, indicating that isotopic equilibrium had been achieved. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (1,4,5-IP3) level in cells was estimated to be approximately 2 microM and was increased by substance P receptor activation to about 25 microM. HPLC analysis of [3H]inositol phosphates indicated that only 1,4,5-IP3, inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, and inositol 4-monophosphate were increased upon receptor activation. There was no increase in inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (1,3,4,5-IP4), or in any of its metabolites. Incubation of [3H]1,4,5-IP3 with a cell homogenate did not result in the formation of [3H]1,3,4,5-IP4. Therefore, it appears that 1,4,5-IP3 3-kinase is either not present or not functional under these assay conditions. Substance P increased cytosolic calcium levels in fura-2-loaded cells from about 600 nM to 2.5 microM. This increase in Ca2+ was partially attenuated in the absence of extracellular calcium, indicating that in AR42J cells, substance P stimulation appears to activate calcium signaling through both Ca2+ entry and intracellular Ca2+ release. These modes of Ca2+ mobilization occur without an increase in 1,3,4,5-IP4 or any of its metabolites.
