In the precedent research conducted by the same team, it concluded that the activities in C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/β-type phospholipase C (PLCβ) pathways of rat antral smooth muscle were changed due to diabetes, which was the key pathogenetic mechanism for diabetic gastric dysmotility. As the follow-on step, this study was designed to probe into the downstream signaling pathway of CNP/PLCβ. The results showed that level of α-type protein kinase C (PKCα),cell membrane to cytoplasm ratio of PKCα, cell membrane to cytoplasmic ratio of βI-type protein kinase C (PKCβI) and level of Phosphor-PKCα (P-PKCα) were significantly reduced in diabetes rat antral smooth muscle samples. The content of tetraphosphate inositol (IP4) in gastric antral smooth muscle of diabetic rats reduced, and the content of diacyl-glycerol (DG) was unchanged. CNP significantly decreased the content of IP4 and DG, this effect was more obvious in diabetic rats. Subsequent to the addition of protein kinase A (PKA) blocker N-[2- (p-Bromocin-namylamino)ethyl]-5 -isoquinolinesulfonamide dihydrochloride (H-89) before CNP treatment, the inhibitory effect of CNP was reduced; subsequent to the addition of protein kinase G (PKG) blocker KT5823 before CNP treatment, the inhibitory effect of CNP was also reduced. With the addition of the combination of H-89 and KT5823 before CNP treatment, the inhibition by CNP could be offset. These results were concluded that CNP inhibited the activity of PKC family in rat smooth muscle and reduced the levels of IP4 and DG through the PKG/PKA-PLCβ pathways, causing inhibited muscular contractions, which may be a key pathogenetic factor for diabetic gastroparesis.
