Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In previous studies investigating cross-talk of signalling between prostaglandin (PG)E(2) receptor (EP) and the TPalpha and TPbeta isoforms of the human thromboxane (TX)A(2) receptor (TP), 17-phenyl trinor PGE(2)-induced desensitization of TP receptor signalling through activation of the AH6809 and SC19220-sensitive EP(1) subtype of the EP receptor family, in a cell-specific manner. Here, we sought to further investigate that cross-talk in human erythroleukaemic (HEL) 92.1.7 cells. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Specificity of 17-phenyl trinor PGE(2) signalling and its possible cross-talk with signalling by TPalpha/TPbeta receptors endogenously expressed in HEL cells was examined through assessment of agonist-induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP)(3) generation and intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) mobilization. KEY RESULTS: While 17-Phenyl trinor PGE(2) led to activation of phospholipase (PL)Cbeta to yield increases in IP(3) generation and [Ca(2+)](i), it did not desensitize but rather augmented that signalling in response to subsequent stimulation with the TXA(2) mimetic U46619. Furthermore, the augmentation was reciprocal. Signalling by 17-phenyl trinor PGE(2) was found to occur through AH6809- and SC19920-insensitive, Pertussis toxin-sensitive, G(i)/G(betagamma)-dependent activation of PLCbeta. Further pharmacological investigation using selective EP receptor subtype agonists and antagonists confirmed that 17-phenyl trinor PGE(2)-mediated signalling and reciprocal cross-talk with the TP receptors occurred through the EP(3), rather than the EP(1), EP(2) or EP(4) receptor subtype in HEL cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: The EP(1) and EP(3) subtypes of the EP receptor family mediated intermolecular cross-talk to differentially regulate TP receptor-mediated signalling whereby activation of EP(1) receptors impaired or desensitized, while that of EP(3) receptors augmented signalling through TPalpha/TPbeta receptors, in a cell type-specific manner.
