4 beta-Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) modified the metabolic actions of three calcium-dependent hormones in different ways. The stimulations of glycogenolysis ureogenesis and phosphatidylinositol labeling produced by alpha 1-adrenergic agonist was blocked by the phorbol ester. In contrast, PMA slightly increased the stimulation of ureogenesis produced by low concentration of angiotensin II without modifying the maximal response. No effect of PMA was observed on the stimulation of ureogenesis induced by vasopressin. The stimulation of phosphatidylinositol labeling induced by vasopressin was decreased by PMA, whereas that induced by angiotensin II was not affected. In intact freshly isolated hepatocytes, [3H]prazosin binds with high affinity to a site which displays the characteristics of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor. Competitive inhibition studies with (-)-epinephrine reveal two different sites for this agonist: a high affinity site (Kd 9 nM) and a low affinity site (Kd 2 microM). In the presence of phorbol esters, (-)-epinephrine binding data now show the presence of a single class of low affinity sites, with similar affinity to those present in control cells. Thus, the inhibition of hepatocyte alpha 1-adrenergic action by PMA may be related to the loss of high affinity binding sites caused by the tumor promoter.
