Abstract
Fluoride interacts with G proteins and, consequently, stimulates phospholipase C as measured by the formation of inositol phosphates and phosphatidic acid. In human platelets this paralleled platelet aggregation and the activation of phosphorylation of substrates of protein kinase C (47kDa protein) and myosin light chain kinase (20kDa protein). Phospholipase C activation by fluoride was inhibited by dibutyryl cyclic AMP and by agents that increase cyclic AMP levels such as iloprost and forskolin. This information suggest that cyclic AMP affects the G protein associated with the stimulation of phospholipase C.Entities:
