We measured the masses of inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) in hepatocytes in response to both epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vasopressin. EGF at 25 nM did not alter Ins(1,4,5)P3 content of hepatocytes. However, the combination of 100 nM EGF concentration and incubation with lithium did increase Ins(1,4,5)P3 content. This increase was only one tenth of that elicited by vasopressin in parallel incubations. This finding resolves a controversy concerning the ability of EGF to increase Ins(1,4,5)P3 in hepatocytes, and argues against a role for phosphoinositide hydrolysis in EGF action in hepatocytes. Both EGF and vasopressin caused a rapid (30 s) increase in DAG content. A delayed increase in DAG content, that was maximal after several minutes, was observed only for vasopressin. The rapid increase in DAG content implies an activation of protein kinase C for both EGF and vasopressin.
