The effect of modulation of the rate of glycogenolysis on the availability of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) was investigated in rat hepatocyte cultures. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP), forskolin and glucagon, activating glycogen phosphorylase through activation of protein kinase A (PKA), were found to raise PRPP availability by 44%-56%. Arg-vasopressin and phenylephrine, activating glycogen phosphorylase through the phosphoinositide cascade, did not affect PRPP availability. dbcAMP, but not phenylephrine, increased the degradation of pre labeled glycogen by 57%. Caffeine and CP-91149, inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase, decreased PRPP availability by 33% and 43%, respectively. The finding that induction of glycogenolysis enhances, and inhibition of glycogenolysis decelerates PRPP generation suggests that glycogenolysis is a major contributor to PRPP generation in liver tissue in the basal (postabsorptive) state.
