The cellular effects of numerous hormones and neurotransmitters, including the vasoactive agents angiotensin II (AngII) and [Arg8]vasopressin, are mediated in part by protein-serine threonine kinases activated by increase of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. In this study, we have tested the ability of Ca(2+)-mobilizing agents to activate cellular tyrosine kinases. Treatment of intact GN4 liver epithelial cells with AngII rapidly (less than or equal to 15 sec) increased tyrosine kinase activity measured either in unfractionated cell lysates or in anti-phosphotyrosine immune complexes from detergent-solubilized cells. Increased phosphorylation of the exogenous substrate poly(Glu80Tyr20) (3- to 4-fold over control) by immunoprecipitated kinases closely paralleled the time- and dose-dependence of the appearance of tyrosine phosphoproteins in intact cells. This effect of AngII was mimicked by thapsigargin, a Ca(2+)-elevating tumor promoter. The ability of AngII, but not epidermal growth factor, to increase tyrosine kinase activity was blocked in cells loaded with the Ca2+ chelator bis-(O-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid. Dephosphorylation of immunoprecipitated proteins by tyrosine phosphatase treatment was accompanied by a 60-70% loss in in vitro kinase activity, suggesting that the AngII-sensitive kinase(s) are activated by phosphorylation in intact cells. These findings demonstrate a link between two widely occurring signaling pathways, the tyrosine kinases and the Ca2+ second-messenger system, and suggest the possible involvement of Ca(2+)-activated tyrosine kinases in the endocrine actions of AngII and [Arg8]vasopressin.
