Abstract: | 1 The effects of genistein and herbimycin, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, on catecholamine (CA) release were examined in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. 2 In intact cells, genistein (10-100 microm) and herbimycin (3-30 microm) inhibited CA release induced by acetylcholine (ACh; 100 microm) or the nicotinic receptor stimulant 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenyl-piperazinium (DMPP; 10 microm), but did not affect CA release induced by high K+ (40 mm). 3 Genistein and herbimycin inhibited (45)Ca2+ uptake induced by ACh (100 microm). 4 Neither genistein nor herbimycin affected [(3)H]nicotine binding with nicotinic receptors. 5 In beta-escin-permeabilized cells, neither genistein nor herbimycin affected CA release induced by Ca2+ (1 microm). 6 These results suggest that protein tyrosine kinase plays the facilitatory role in the regulation of CA release induced by nicotinic receptor stimulation in stimulus-secretion coupling of bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. |
