The divalent cation ionophore A23187 at a concentration of 1 nM produced an increased rate of oxalate-supported calcium uptake by isolated cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum as determined by absorbance changes of the calcium-sensitive dye murexide. Addition of a higher concentration of A23187 (0.1 microM) produced a decreased rate of calcium uptake. Measurement of the time during which ATPase was activated by calcium addition also suggested an increased rate of calcium uptake in the presence of 1 nM A23187 and an inhibition of calcium uptake at a higher concentration of the ionophore (0.1 microM). Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity and incorporation of 32Pi from [gamma-32P]ATP into sarcoplasmic reticular proteins were increased by A23187 at concentrations of 1 nM or greater. An increased coupling of calcium uptake to ATP hydrolysis was observed at 1 nM A23187, while concentrations of the ionophore greater than or equal to 10 nM produced a decreased coupling. Addition of an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase decreased the rate of calcium uptake, and this inhibition was reversed in a concentration-dependent manner by 0.01-1 nM A23187. These data suggest that A23187 can activate a mechanism involving the calcium-dependent phosphorylation of protein that may regulate the activity of the calcium uptake system of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. These observations appear to provide an explanation for some of the contractile effects of A23187 in intact cardiac muscle that suggest that treatment with the ionophore results in an increased sequestration of calcium from the cytoplasm.
