The hormone gastrin exerts a growth-promoting effect on gastrointestinal cells. The molecular mechanisms by which colonic epithelial cells respond to gastrin are still poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate a novel feature of the action of gastrin on normal colonic cells, namely the rapid phosphorylation on tyrosine of phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1). Tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma 1, elicited by gastrin, was transient, concentration-dependent, and was abrogated by pretreating the colonic cells with the gastrin-receptor antagonist proglumide, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein, and by removal of the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor orthovanadate from the isolation buffer. Tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma 1 correlated with the time- and concentration-dependent decrease in the mass of membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and the increase in the epithelial concentration of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). Likewise, the stimulated increase in IP3 was also prevented by proglumide and genistein. Gastrin induced a definite but transient increase in the intracellular concentration of free Ca2+ [Ca2+]i, and increased membrane-translocation of immunoreactive alpha- and beta-protein kinase C. The data thus indicate that gastrin elicits at least one signalling cascade, through rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma 1, leading to the activation of a PIP2-specific PLC pathway.
