Signal transduction by the PTH receptor is now known to involve generation of multiple second messengers. Desensitization of the adenylate cyclase response to PTH is a common feature of bone- and kidney-derived target cells; however, no single mechanism appears to explain desensitization in the different cell types studied. To examine the role of protein kinase-A (PKA) in homologous desensitization to PTH, we employed human SaOS-2 osteoblast-like cells and a mutant subclone (Ca 4A), which expresses an inducible cAMP-resistant form of PKA. Pretreatment of SaOS-2 cells with PTH for 4 h reduced by 60-80% the cAMP response to subsequent rechallenge with the hormone. This homologous desensitization was significantly, but not completely, inhibited in Ca 4A cells. Desensitization was not mimicked by pretreatment of the cells with forskolin. PTH binding to its receptor was reduced 50% in both SaOS-2 and Ca 4A cells after 4-h incubation with PTH (homologous down-regulation), whereas forskolin did not cause receptor down-regulation. Pretreatment with the ionophore ionomycin for 4-24 h did not mimic desensitization to PTH. Both desensitization to PTH and receptor down-regulation were induced, however, by pretreatment with a phorbol ester (12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate), and these effects were blocked completely by staurosporine. PTH-induced desensitization was not blocked by staurosporine, and receptor down-regulation was enhanced by the drug. Pertussis toxin did not prevent desensitization induced by either PTH or 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate. We conclude that homologous desensitization to PTH in SaOS-2 cells involves both cAMP-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Homologous PTH receptor down-regulation apparently is mediated by mechanisms independent of PKA activation. Neither pathway of homologous desensitization to PTH involves the action of pertussis toxin-sensitive G-proteins.

Previous data suggested an active Cl- conductance in the renal proximal convoluted tubule, although single channel conductance and regulation were not found. We have investigated the presence and regulation of the Cl- channel in proximal convoluted tubules by patch clamp analysis. The current-voltage relationship of whole cells with 130 mM NaCl in the pipette was nonlinear. The addition of 1-34 PTH (10(-8) M), forskolin, or cAMP significantly increased whole cell Cl- conductance. We found a single Cl- channel in excised apical membranes possessing conductance of 33 picosiemens (pS) at positive and 22.5 pS at negative potential, which was blocked by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'- disulfonic acid (10(-4) M) and was selective to Cl- (Cl/Na = 10). The channel was activated by prolonged membrane depolarization, by a catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKA), or by purified kinase C (PKC), but not by Ca2+ (1 microM) inside the membrane. During cell-attached patch clamping, the channel was similarly activated by PTH, phorbol ester, or dibutyryl cAMP in a dose-dependent manner. To investigate second messenger contributions to the PTH-action, the PTH-evoked channels were modified further by the subsequent addition of several blockers of the second messengers. This suggested that PKA and PKC were involved in Cl- channel activation. We therefore conclude that renal proximal convoluted tubule cells possess an apical Cl- channel activated by PTH via the PKA and PKC pathways.

The osteoblast-like cells, UMR 106-01, express PTH receptors that are coupled to adenylate cyclase. Recently, we reported the isolation of a UMR 106-01 subclone, UMR 4-7, that is stably transfected with a Zn(++)-inducible mutant of the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A. Incubation of UMR 4-7 cells with Zn++ renders the cells unresponsive to cAMP agonists. This subclone, therefore, seemed particularly suitable for studies of PTH receptor regulation. In UMR 106-01 cells, PTH receptors are strikingly down-regulated by pretreatment with 8-Br-cAMP or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine for 2 days. In UMR 4-7 cells, this effect is totally prevented by prior and concurrent treatment with Zn++. Zn++ addition to UMR 106 cells does not modify these responses. Treatment with the PTH agonist [Nle8,18,Tyr34]bovine PTH(1-34)NH2 [(NlePTH(1-34)] also markedly down-regulates PTH receptors in UMR 106 cells, but this effect is only partially inhibited in Zn(++)-induced UMR 4-7 cells. At high doses, the PTH antagonist, [Nle8,18,Tyr34]bovine PTH(3-34)NH2 [NlePTH(3-34)] also (partially) reduces PTH receptor availability. Receptor regulation by NlePTH(3-34) is not blocked in the cAMP-resistant cells, however. Coincubation of submaximal doses of NlePTH(1-34) (1 nM) with NlePTH(3-34) (1 microM) reduces receptor availability more than when the cells are exposed to either ligand alone. This decrease is only partially inhibited in Zn(++)-induced UMR 4-7 cells. In contrast to its additive effect on receptor regulation, NlePTH(3-34) efficiently competes for binding to the PTH receptor in UMR 106-01 cells and antagonizes the stimulatory effects of NlePTH(1-34) on both intracellular cAMP accumulation and gene expression driven by a transiently transfected synthetic cAMP-responsive enhancer. In conclusion, homologous down-regulation of PTH receptors is mediated by activation of both cAMP-dependent (via protein kinase A) and cAMP-independent pathways. PTH activates both pathways, whereas the effect of NlePTH(3-34) appears to be exclusively cAMP-independent. These results give new insights into mechanisms of PTH receptor regulation.

Recent evidence indicates that after PTh interaction with its receptor, both protein kinase-A (PKA) and protein kinase-C (PKC) are activated. To investigate the relationship between PTH structure and protein kinase stimulation, we have analyzed the effects of synthetic PTH fragments on PKA and PKC in the rat osteogenic sarcoma cells, UMR 106-01. Activation of PKA by 10(-7) M bovine (b) PTH-(1-34) was maximal (2.7-fold of control) at 5 min and remained elevated 15 min after hormone exposure. bPTH-(2-34), at equimolar doses, also stimulated PKA, but with a lower potency (1.4-fold of control), whereas propionyl bPTH-(2-34) [pbPTH-(2-34)], bPTH-(3-34), [Tyr34]bPTH-(7-34) amide [bPTH-(7-34)], and bPTH-(30-34) were ineffective. On the other hand, translocation of PKC activity from the cytosol to the membrane after exposure to bPTH-(1-34) was transient, with a peak at 1 min (1.9-fold of control), and returned to basal levels after 5 min. Other fragments, bPTH-(2-34), pbPTH-(2-34), bPTH-(3-34), and bPTH-(7-34), were also active on PKC, with relative potencies of 81%, 67%, 62%, and 51% of bPTH-(1-34), respectively, whereas bPTH-(30-34) was inactive. bPTH-(1-34), bPTH-(2-34), pbPTH-(2-34), and bPTH-(3-34) also induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production, with a potency order of 1.6-, 1.6-, 1.5-, and 1.6-fold over the control value, respectively, thus indicating activation of phospholipase-C. Neither bPTH-(7-34) nor bPTH-(30-34) caused a statistically significant increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production. These results demonstrate that PTH signal transduction through the two different pathways can be dissociated; while activation of the cAMP/PKA system requires amino acids 1 and 2, the phospholipase-C/PKC system is coupled to a longer domain of the hormone's N-terminus.

The PTH activates both adenylate cyclase and a mechanism that increases membrane-associated protein kinase-C (PKC) activity. To define the hormone's PKC activation domain we have used a panel of PTH fragments and ROS 17/2 rat osteosarcoma cells as the target cells. PTH equally and maximally increased PKC activity in ROS 17/2 cell membranes at physiological concentrations between 1-50 pM and 5-50 nM, but not at intermediate concentrations or concentrations above 50 nM. The PKC-stimulating picomolar concentrations of PTH did not stimulate adenylate cyclase in ROS 17/2 cells, while the PKC-stimulating nanomolar concentrations of the hormone did stimulate adenylate cyclase, with an EC50 of 1-2 nM. Very high concentrations of PTH, such as 100 nM, that did not increase membrane PKC activity were still able to maximally stimulate adenylate cyclase. PTH fragments lacking the N-terminal amino acids needed for adenylate cyclase activation increased membrane PKC activity, and the PKC activation domain was found to lie within the 28-34 region of the PTH molecule. This was confirmed by showing that optimally effective picomolar concentrations of the human PTH-(28-34) fragment itself were able to increase membrane-associated PKC activity to the same extent as the optimally effective picomolar concentrations of the intact PTH-(1-84) or the larger PTH-(1-34) or PTH-(3-34) fragments.

The present study was performed to compare the effect of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) on the proliferation of osteoblastic osteosarcoma cells (UMR-106) with that of PTH and characterize the direct involvement of cAMP in the change of osteoblast proliferation by PTHrP. Human(h)PTHrP-(1-34) (10(-11)-10(-7)M) dose-dependently inhibited [3H]thymidine incorporation (TdR) in the same manner as hPTH-(1-34). The simultaneous addition of PTHrP and PTH at a maximal effective dose of 10(-7) M did not cause additive suppressive effect on cell proliferation. Rp-cAMPs, which has been recently shown to act directly as antagonist in the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), dose-dependently (10(-6)-10(-4)M) antagonized PTHrP-induced suppression of TdR in the same manner as PTH. Present study indicated that PTHrP has the same effect on osteoblast proliferation as PTH and that the activation of PKA is directly linked to the change of osteoblast proliferation by PTHrP.

PTH-related protein (PTHrP) interacts, via its amino-terminal 34 residues, with PTH receptors on osteoblasts to stimulate osteoclastic bone resorption indirectly. We now report that mature hPTHrP-(1-141) (EC50, approximately 10(-11) M) and a carboxyl-terminal fragment, PTHrP-(107-139) (EC50, approximately 10(-15) M), are potent inhibitors of resorption in an isolated rat osteoclast bone resorption assay, whereas hPTHrP-(1-108) and hPTHrP-(1-34) are inactive in this respect. PTHrP-(107-139) also inhibits resorption in a rat long bone organ culture system and reduces osteoclast spreading. PTHrP-(107-139) does not act on osteoclasts via a cAMP signal transduction mechanism, but its effects may be mediated by protein kinase-C. This previously unrecognized action of PTHrP, to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption directly, indicates that PTHrP may be a precursor of multiple biologically active peptides with differing physiological functions.

The suppression of PTH release by high extracellular calcium (Ca2+) has been associated with secretion of biologically inactive carboxyl-terminal fragments of PTH (C-PTH), while relatively more intact PTH is released under low extracellular Ca2+ conditions. In the presence of high extracellular Ca2+, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) has been shown to stimulate PTH release to levels observed at low Ca2+, suggesting that protein kinase-C (PKC) is involved in the regulation of PTH secretion. We have examined the effect of PMA on PTH secretion and the release of PTH fragments at high and low calcium concentrations. Primary cultures of bovine parathyroid cells were incubated for 90 min in 0.5 mM (low) or 2.0 mM (high) Ca2+ with or without 1.6 microM PMA. Reverse phase HPLC using an 18-60% gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid was performed on the medium from these incubations, and the eluant fractions were analyzed with a carboxyl (C)-terminal-specific PTH RIA. Medium from cultures exposed to low Ca2+ exhibited two large peaks of PTH immunoreactivity, coeluting with intact PTH-(1-84) and a synthetic human C-PTH-(39-84). PMA treatment at low Ca2+ resulted in the secretion of a greatly reduced amount of intact PTH, suggesting that PKC may increase the production of PTH fragment. At high extracellular Ca2+ PMA caused an increase in total immunoreactive PTH release similar to that seen at low Ca2+. However, on HPLC analysis, proportionally more PTH eluted in the position of the C-PTH fragment than was seen with low Ca2+ stimulation of PTH secretion. It, therefore, appears that the degradation of PTH to C-PTH may be linked to activation of PKC and can be separated from the Ca2+ regulation of PTH release occurring at the cell membrane.

The mechanisms involved in mediating desensitization and down-regulation of renal PTH receptors have not been defined. Recent studies indicate that PTH binding promotes not only stimulation of adenylate cyclase and activation of protein kinase-A (PK-A), but also, stimulation of phospholipase-C, leading to activation of PK-C. PK-C has been shown to alter both receptor and adenylate cyclase function in other systems. Therefore, the present studies were conducted to test whether PK-C might play a role in the regulation of the PTH receptor-cyclase system after exposure to PTH. Exposure of confluent cultures of opossum kidney (OK) cells to rat PTH-(1-34) (100 nM) for 6 h resulted in a 48 +/- 8% (n = 5) decrease in stimulation of cAMP accumulation in response to further exposure to PTH. PTH receptor binding, assessed with 125I-[Nle8,Nle21,Tyr34]rat PTH-(1-34)NH2 as radioligand, was decreased to a similar extent. Phorbol ester (4 beta-12,13-didecanoate; 1 microM) treatment of the cells in the absence of PTH caused a 58 +/- 3% decrease in PTH-stimulated cAMP production, but equilibrium PTH receptor binding was not different from the control value. Both 50 microM H-7 and 0.5 microM Staurosporine (inhibitors of PK-C) completely blocked the effects of phorbol ester. Pretreatment with PTH, however, in the presence of H-7 or Staurosporine resulted in a completely normal cAMP response to restimulation with PTH. Thus, two inhibitors of PK-C completely prevented desensitization to PTH. The decrease in equilibrium PTH binding, seen after incubation with PTH alone, was also blunted by the inhibitors of PK-C. These data indicate that activation of PK-C by stimulation with PTH may play a role in the regulation of the PTH receptor-cyclase system in OK cells.

Sodium-phosphate cotransport in the PTH-responsive opossum kidney (OK) cell line is inhibited by PTH, cAMP, and activators of protein kinase C. In order to probe the role of cAMP, we stably transfected OK cells with an expression vector for a cAMP-binding mutation of the murine protein kinase A regulatory subunit. Two-dimensional electrophoresis of cAMP-binding proteins from transfected cells indicated a 20-fold overexpression of the mutant regulatory unit. Protein kinase A from these cells had a 20-fold increase in the concentration of cAMP required for half-maximal activation, 2.8 microM vs. 0.15 microM for wild type cells. In the transfected cells, Na-phosphate cotransport was insensitive to up to 1 mM 8-Br-cAMP and 1 microM PTH, while these same agonists caused a significant inhibition of transport in the wild type cells. The effects on Na-phosphate cotransport of the protein kinase C activators oleoyl-acetyl glycerol and tetradecanoyl-phorbol acetate, which were marked in the wild type cells, were still present, although attenuated, in the transfected mutants. With prolonged passage, the cAMP-insensitive phenotype reverted to wild type cAMP sensitivity despite continued selection for the cotransfected neo marker. The revertant cells had a normal cAMP requirement for half-maximal activation of protein kinase A, 0.13 microM, and the PTH and cAMP-sensitive inhibition of Na-phosphate cotransport was restored. We suggest that an intact and normally cAMP-sensitive protein kinase A pathway is an absolute requirement for PTH inhibition of Na-phosphate cotransport in the OK cell.
