Pharmacological characterization of the novel helodermin/VIP receptor present in human SUP-T1 lymphoma cell membranes.
[Acetyl-His1]VIP stimulated adenylate cyclase with higher potency than VIP in membranes from human SUP-T1 lymphoblasts and was used as an efficient radioiodinated ligand with low non-specific binding to evaluate the relationship between receptor occupancy and adenylate cyclase activation and the possible interference of peptide T (an epitope derived from HIV envelope protein gp120). Various peptides inhibited [125I-acetyl-His1]VIP binding and activated the enzyme, their order of potency being: helodermin greater than [acetyl-His1]VIP greater than VIP = PHI = [Phe1]VIP greater than [D-Phe2]VIP = [D-Ala4]VIP = [D-Phe4]PHI greater than or equal to [D-Phe4]VIP greater than [D-His1]VIP giving further support for the existence of a novel subtype of helodermin/VIP receptors. [D-Ala1]peptide T and VIP-(10-28) did not recognize the binding site and did not inhibit, even at high concentration, VIP - or VIP analogue - stimulated adenylate cyclase activities.

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and peptide having N-terminal histidine and C-terminal isoleucine amide (PHI) stimulate adenylate cyclase activity in human heart membranes.
The presence of receptors, recognized by Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) and Peptide having N-terminal Histidine and C-terminal Isoleucine amide (PHI), was documented in membranes from human right auricle and left ventricular cardiac muscle by the ability of these peptides to stimulate adenylate cyclase. The capacity of VIP and PHI to activate the enzyme was comparable, in auricle as well as ventricle membranes, the affinity of the system being moderately higher for VIP than for PHI. In auricles, dose-effect curves appeared compatible with the coexistence of high-affinity and low-affinity VIP receptors. PHI could not, however, discriminate these subclasses of VIP receptors.

Effects of HIS1 modifications on the ability of vasoactive intestinal peptide to stimulate adenylate cyclase from rat and human tissues.
The importance of the N-terminal His residue of VIP for stimulating adenylate cyclase was appreciated by estimating the intrinsic activity and EC50 of four VIP analogues on membranes from rat lung, liver, brain, anterior pituitary, and pancreas, and on human heart membranes. In all tissue preparations tested except one, the order of efficacy (and often potency) was: VIP greater than (Ac-His1)VIP greater than (Phe1)VIP = (3-Me-His1)VIP greater than (D-His1)VIP. In rat heart membranes, the order of efficacy was somewhat different: VIP greater than (Ac-His1)VIP = (Phe1)VIP greater than (D-His1)VIP greater than (3-Me-His1)VIP. These data demonstrated the key role of His1 in VIP in activating adenylate cyclase. They suggest that a given VIP analogue might act as full agonist in tightly coupled adenylate cyclase systems (such as those of rat lung and liver membranes) whereas the same analogue could not promote full activity in poorly coupled systems (such as that present in rat brain synaptic membranes).

Specific decrease of secretin/VIP-stimulated adenylate cyclase in the heart from the Lyon strain of hypertensive rats.
The cardiac adenylate cyclase activity of genetically hypertensive rats from the Lyon strain (LH) was compared to that of Lyon normotensive rats (LN) and that of low blood pressure Lyon rats (LL). The major finding was a 30-35% decrease of secretin- and VIP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in cardiac membranes of LH rats that was already obvious in 5 week-old prehypertensive animals: this alteration was apparently specific for the cardiac secretin/VIP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, the same activity in membranes from brain, anterior pituitary, and liver being similar in LH, LN and LL rats. It is tempting to conclude that a selective alteration of functional cardiac secretin/VIP receptors in LH rats reflects a local hyperactivity of the sympathetic adrenergic system.

Interaction of Gila monster venom with secretin receptors in rat pancreatic membranes.
The stimulatory effect of Gila monster venom on adenylate cyclase activity in rat pancreatic membranes was compared to that of porcine secretin and porcine VIP. The maximal effect exerted by the venom was identical to that of VIP but significantly lower than that of secretin. The effect of Gila monster venom could, however, be attributed to its interaction with secretin receptors rather than with VIP receptors, at variance with its previously described action on guinea pig pancreatic acini. Adenylate cyclase activation by both Gila monster venom and secretin in rat pancreatic membranes was, indeed: (1) dose-dependently inhibited by two secretin fragments secretin-(4-27) and secretin-(7-27), and (2) more severely depressed than VIP stimulation, after pretreating pancreatic membranes with dithiothreitol (DTT).

Alteration of secretin-stimulated cardiac adenylate cyclase activity in rats with portacaval shunt.
Wistar rats were submitted to portacaval anastomosis (PCA). Control rats were sham-operated and pair-fed (SOPF). After 3 weeks, PCA led to the hypertrophy of right atrium (+50%), left atrium (+67%) and both ventricles (+26%). The response of adenylate cyclase activity to secretin was specifically and markedly decreased in membranes from atria (-51 to 59%) and ventricles (-68 to 69%). These data suggest a decrease in the number of functional secretin receptors in heart considering that: the half-maximal stimulatory secretin concentration was unchanged; glucagon stimulations were unaltered and D,L-isoproterenol stimulations were hardly affected; the Gpp(NH)p-, NaF-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were moderately decreased (in ventricles, by 14-28%) or unchanged (in atria).

VIP and related peptides induce rapid homologous desensitization in the human lymphoma SUP T1 cell line.
Incubation of human SUP T1 lymphoblasts with VIP, helodermin and related peptides induced homologous desensitization within 5 min as indicated by: 1) a secondary decrease in cellular cyclic AMP levels, even in the presence of phosphodiesterase inhibitors, 2) a reduced capacity of cells to bind [125I]helodermin, 3) decreased helodermin stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in membranes, and 4) unaffected NaF- and Gpp[NH]p-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. The desensitizing ability of all peptides correlated with their efficacy to occupy cell receptors, except for [D-Phe2]VIP, a partial VIP agonist with low intrinsic activity, that did not desensitize.

Recovery of VIP/helodermin- and prostaglandin E1-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities in desensitized SUP-T1 human lymphoblasts.
VIP/helodermin receptors and PGE1 receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase underwent rapid homologous desensitization and/or down regulation in the human lymphoma SUP-T1 cell line: helodermin- and PGE1-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities in membranes decreased by 75% and 80%, respectively, after a 16-hr incubation of cells with 30 nM VIP or 0.1 microM PGE1. The adenylate cyclase response to helodermin doubled within 120 min of incubation with fresh medium, this part of the resensitization process being not significantly reduced by cycloheximide. The second slower phase of recovery attained 80% of control values after 8 hr and was significantly affected by cycloheximide added at time 0. These data were corroborated by our observations on [125I]helodermin binding to intact cells. In the case of functional PGE1 receptors, sixty percent of the adenylate cyclase response reappeared within 30-60 min, with the second phase of recovery leading, after 2-3 hr to 80-85% of control values of PGE1-stimulated enzyme activity. This resensitization process to PGE1 was, as a whole, cycloheximide sensitive.

Decreased adenylate cyclase activation by helodermin and PGE1 in the lectin-resistant variant Wa4 of the mouse melanoma cell line B16.
We examined the cultured mouse melanoma cell line B16 (clone F1) and its wheat germ agglutinin-resistant variant Wa4 that suffers from abnormal protein glycosylation (a high fucose:sialic acid ratio in glycoproteins). In both cell lines the adenylate cyclase system was endowed with a functional guanine nucleotide binding protein Gs and was efficiently coupled to alpha-MSH receptors. In the B16 cell line F1 studied we also observed an efficient stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity by helodermin, VIP and the VIP analogue [acetyl-His1]VIP, and also by PGE1. In membranes from the lectin-resistant variant Wa4, the stimulations by VIP-like peptides and by PGE1 were reduced by 60% and 50%, respectively, while the stimulation by alpha-MSH remained normal. As other components of the adenylate cyclase system (Gs site, catalytical unit) appeared unchanged in the Wa4 variant, we conclude that impaired glycosylation essentially affected the number of both VIP-like peptide receptors and PGE1 receptors.

Amino acid sequence of VIP, PHI and secretin from the rabbit small intestine.
VIP, PHI and secretin were purified from rabbit small intestine throughout a maximum of 6 chromatographic steps. After elution on a reverse phase C18 column, the 3 peptides were separated on a Fractogel column using specific radioimmunoassays for detection. After cation exchange chromatography on Mono S, the final steps were performed using a reverse phase RP8-e column. For these steps, radioreceptor assays were utilized to detect VIP and PHI. We confirmed that the VIP sequence of rabbit was identical to that of porcine VIP. The PHI sequence was also found identical to that of porcine PHI. By contrast, rabbit secretin was highly original, differing from porcine secretin in having Leu, Arg and Leu-NH2 residues instead of Phe, Ser and Val-NH2 in, respectively, position 6, 16 and 27.

The novel VIP-like hypothalamic polypeptide PACAP interacts with high affinity receptors in the human neuroblastoma cell line NB-OK.
We investigated the ability of two forms of Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Polypeptide [PACAP-38, the 38 amino acid peptide isolated from ovine hypothalamus, and PACAP-27, a shorter N-terminal (1-27) amidated version] to interact with specific receptors in membranes from the human neuroblastoma cell line NB-OK. [125I]PACAP-27 bound rapidly and specifically to one class of high affinity sites (Kd 0.5 nM). VIP inhibited [125I]PACAP-27 binding 300- to 1000-fold less potently than PACAP-27 and PACAP-38. One microM PHI prevented tracer binding only partially and secretin, glucagon and GRF(1-29)NH2 were ineffective in this respect. PACAP-27 and PACAP-38 stimulated adenylate cyclase activity dose dependently and with similar efficacy (Kact 0.2-0.3 nM), this activation being compatible with the occupancy of specific high affinity PACAP receptor. VIP was markedly less potent and less efficient on this enzyme than PACAP. Chemical cross-linking of [125I]PACAP-27 followed by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography revealed specific cross-linking with a 68 kDa protein.

Comparative in vitro effects of guinea pig VIP and common VIP on liver and lung membranes from guinea pig and rat and on human lymphoblastic SUP-T1 membranes.
Guinea pig VIP differs from VIP of several mammals by its amino acids in positions 5, 9, 19 and 26. We tested a) its ability to occupy VIP receptors in liver and lung membranes of rat and guinea pig and in the human lymphoblastic SUP-T1 cell line and b) the ensuing adenylate cyclase stimulation. In liver and lung membranes from rat, guinea pig VIP was less potent than common VIP to occupy high and low affinity VIP receptors. In rat liver both VIP activated adenylate cyclase mostly through high affinity receptors. In rat lung, guinea pig VIP activated the enzyme mostly through high affinity receptors and was less efficient than common VIP acting through both classes of receptors. In guinea pig liver and lung membranes, binding inhibition curves were steeper than with rat preparations and adenylate cyclase appeared to be mostly activated through high affinity VIP receptors in liver and through both classes of receptors in lung. On human lymphoblastic SUP-T1 membranes both VIP were equally potent and efficient to inhibit tracer binding and activate adenylate cyclase.
