Evidence that inositol 1-phosphate in brain of lithium-treated rats results mainly from phosphatidylinositol metabolism

Abstract: In cerebral cortex of rats treated with increasing doses of LiCl, the relative concentrations of Ins(1)P, Ins(4)P and Ins(5)P (when InsP is a myo-inositol phosphate) are approx. 10:1:0.2 at all doses. In rats treated with LiCl followed by increasing doses of pilocarpine a similar relationship occurs. myo-Inositol-1-phosphatase (InsP1ase) from bovine brain hydrolyses Ins(1)P, Ins(4)P and Ins(5)P at comparable rates, and these substrates have similar Km values. The hydrolysis of Ins(4)P is inhibited by Li+ to a … Show more

“…This agrees with previous reports in which Ins(4)P was shown to be the predominant inositol monophosphate formed [33][34][35]. However, there are also reports of the production of Ins(l)P or mixtures of Ins(l)P and Ins(4)P in which Ins(l)P is the predominant form [36,37]. However, this could be explained by the fact that Siess [37] used whole platelets stimulated with thrombin or vasopressin, whereas in the other study inositol monophosphates were measured in a different tissue, calf brain.…”

“…To measure the sensitivities ofIns(4,5)P2 dephosphorylation to Li' and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, we synthesized and purified [2-3H] (Eisenberg, 1967;Hallcher & Sherman, 1980;-Ackermann et al, 1987 In Dictyostelium homogenates, L-InslP and Ins4P are dephosphorylated under conditions similar to those described for the above systems. Li' inhibits the dephosphorylation of L-[U-'4C]InslP in the soluble fraction of these homogenates, with half-maximal inhibition at about 2.5 mm (Fig 7).…”

“…In the best studied mammalian systems, such as human erythrocytes, platelets, rat brain, liver, pancreas and parotid gland, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 response is attenuated by a specific phosphatase which removes the phosphate from the 5-position to yield Ins(1,4)P2 (Downes et al, 1982;Storey et al, 1984;Connolly et al, 1985;Erneux et al, 1986;Shears et al, 1987). Ins(1,4)P2 is then further dephosphorylated to Ins4P in rat liver and brain and calf brain (Delvaux et al, 1987a;Ackermann et al, 1987;Ragan et al, 1988), and finally to Ins. The Ins formed in this way can then be re-used for the synthesis of inositol phospholipids, thus closing the cyclic metabolic pathway characteristic for this signalling system.…”

“…It is unclear whether this represents a difference among species or whether the investigators were unable to resolve Ins 4P and Pi on the Dowex chromatography system used. Finally, Ackermann et al (26) incubated 700 ,uM Ins(1,4)P2 with crude rat brain cytosol and detected formation of both Ins 4P and Ins 1P, though Ins 4P was the major product. The difference between this result and the data presented here might result from action of a 4-phosphatase with low affinity for Ins(1,4)P2 that we were unable to detect at low substrate concentrations.…”
