The diadenosine polyphosphates--Ap4A and Ap5A--were released from perfused bovine adrenal glands and recently isolated chromaffin cells by the action of carbachol. The H.P.L.C. technique reported here allowed the quantification of pmol amounts of these compounds present in biological samples from the perfusion media after stimulation. Both compounds (Ap4A and Ap5A) were identified by the retention time in H.P.L.C. chromatography, co-elution with standards, re-chromatography and destruction by the phosphodiesterase action. Bovine adrenal glands stimulated with 100 microM carbachol released 0.47 +/- 0.12 nmol/gland of Ap4A and 1.11 +/- 0.26 nmol/gland of Ap5A. Isolated bovine chromaffin cells after 100 microM carbachol, as secretagogue, released 11.1 +/- 0.8 pmol/10(6) cells of Ap4A and 15.8 +/- 1.1 pmol/10(6) cells of Ap5A. The ratio of these compounds with respect to the exocytotically released ATP and catecholamines was in the same order as that found in isolated chromaffin granules.
