Parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulates calcium metabolism through a specific G protein-coupled, seven-transmembrane helix-containing receptor. This receptor also binds and is activated by PTH-related protein (PTHrP). The human (h) PTH/PTHrP receptor is a membrane glycoprotein with an apparent molecular weight of approximately 85000 which contains four putative N-glycosylation sites. To elucidate the functional role of receptor glycosylation, if any, we studied hormone binding and signal transduction in human embryonic kidney cells transfected with hPTH/PTHrP receptor (HEK-293/C-21). These cells stably express 300000-400000 receptors per cell. Inhibition of N-glycosylation with an optimized concentration of tunicamycin yielded completely nonglycosylated hPTH/PTHrP receptor (approximately 60 kDa). This receptor form is fully functional; it maintains nanomolar binding affinity for PTH- and PTHrP-derived agonists and antagonists. PTH and PTHrP agonists stimulate cyclic AMP accumulation and increases in cytosolic calcium levels. In addition, the highly potent benzophenone (pBz2)-containing PTH-derived radioligand [Nle8,18,Lys13(epsilon-pBz2),L-2-Nal23,Tyr34 3-125I)]bPTH(1-34)NH2 can photoaffinity cross-link specifically to the nonglycosylated receptor. The molecular weight (approximately 60000) of the band representing the photo-cross-linked, nonglycosylated receptor (obtained from the tunicamycin-treated HEK-293/C-21 cells) was similar to that of the deglycosylated photo-cross-linked receptor (obtained by enzymatic treatment with Endoglycosidase-F/N-glycosidase-F). Our findings indicate that glycosylation of the hPTH/PTHrP receptor is not essential for its effective expression on the plasma membrane or for the binding of ligands known to interact with the native receptor. The nonglycosylated hPTH/PTHrP receptor remains fully functional with regard to both of its known signal transduction pathways: cAMP-protein kinase A and phospholipase C-cytosolic calcium.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays an essential role in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. The effects of PTH are known to be mediated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and calcium and by the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). cAMP is hydrolyzed to the inactive form 5' AMP by cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs). We have investigated the role of PTH on PDE regulation in UMR-106 osteoblast-like cells. Treatment with 10 nM PTH caused a 3-fold increase in the PDE activity. The activation of PDE could be seen within 2 minutes and reached maximal levels after 20 minutes. The PTH effect was dose dependent with a half-maximal dose of 2 nM. The effect of PTH could be mimicked by the cAMP analogs Bt2 cAMP and forskolin, but not by PTH fragment 3-34, calcium ionophore A23187, or by the PKC activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The PDE activity stimulated by PTH could be abolished by the PKA inhibitor H-8. The PDE activated by PTH was inhibitable by low concentrations of the cAMP-PDE-specific inhibitor RO 20-1724 (IC50 = 0.2 microM), but not by low concentrations of the inhibitors of cGMP-stimulated and cGMP-inhibited PDEs MEP-1 and milrinone (IC50 for both compounds > 30 microM). The PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation was potentiated about 7-fold in the presence of RO 20-1724. H-8 potentiated the PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation about 4-fold. Our results show that PTH rapidly stimulates the activity of cAMP-PDE in UMR-106 cells. The PDE activation involves cAMP and PKA. Inhibition of PKA can abolish the PTH-stimulated PDE activation and leads to increased accumulation of intracellular cAMP.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) activates multiple intracellular effectors, including adenylyl cyclase (AC) and phospholipase C (PLC), via a single receptor [PTH/parathyroid hormone-related protein receptor (PTHR)] expressed in bone and kidney. Homologous desensitization of PTHR signaling occurs, but the relative importance of reduced receptor expression vs. impaired receptor-effector coupling in this process remains unclear. It also is not known if AC and PLC responses to PTH are desensitized independently or interdependently. In LLC-PK1 cells that expressed transfected wild-type PTHRs, PTH caused dose- and time-dependent desensitization of both the AC and PLC-responses to PTH without altering PTHR expression. Desensitization of AC was blocked in mutant cells resistant to adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate but not when cells expressed mutant PTHRs with defective PLC coupling. Desensitization of PLC was unaffected by PKA blockade, partially mimicked by phorbol ester, and not reproduced by agents that selectively activated AC. The finding that homologous PTHR desensitization in LLC-PK1 cells is signal specific suggests that prior exposure of other cells to PTH also may induce discordant regulation of subsequent PTHR signaling, altering the character as well as the intensity of the hormonal response.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) functions in part by regulating osteoblast cytokine expression. We recently demonstrated that PTH induced a rapid and transient increase in interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA expression in rat bones in vivo. To determine the molecular basis of this effect, we analyzed the human IL-6 promoter fused (-1,179 to +9) with the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene in stable transfections into human osteoblast-like osteosarcoma SaOS-2 cells. We compared the effects of PTH on IL-6 expression with adenylate cyclase activator forskolin, PKC activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), calcium ionophore A23187, interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha), prostaglandin E-2 (PGE-2), RS-66271 (a parathyroid hormone-related peptide analog), and platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB). Analyses of cell clones showed that IL-6 promoter expression was extremely low in the unstimulated state. Exposure to PTH (0.001-100 nM) for 12 h stimulated CAT expression in a dose-dependent manner (200-500% of control). Treatment with IL-1 alpha was more potent than PTH in inducing transcription of the IL-6 promoter (900-1,000%). Activation of the cAMP-PKA pathway by treatment with forskolin induced a comparable level of induction with PTH. Together, the effects of PTH and forskolin were additive. RS-66271, previously shown to have PTH-like effects, induced a comparable level of IL-6 promoter expression. When examined together, PTH+RS-66271 effects were comparable to PTH effects alone. Exposure to PGE-2, PMA, PDGF-BB, or A23187 for 12 h did not significantly alter IL-6 promoter expression. These results demonstrate PTH, forskolin, the PTHrP analog RS-66271, and IL-1 alpha stimulate IL-6 expression by stimulating gene transcription. The response to forskolin suggests that the messenger system mediated by PKA is sufficient to induce IL-6 expression.

We have previously shown that the p-aminohippurate (PAH) transport system in OK kidney epithelial cell line is under the regulatory control of protein kinase C. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) could activate protein kinase C, as well as protein kinase A, in OK cells. In the present study, the effect of PTH on PAH transport was studied in OK cells. PTH inhibited the transcellular transport of PAH from the basal to the apical side, as well as the accumulation of PAH in OK cells. Basolateral PAH uptake was inhibited by PTH in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Protein kinase A activators did not affect the transcellular transport or the accumulation of PAH. The PTH-induced inhibition of the accumulation of PAH was blocked by a protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine. These results suggest that PTH inhibits the PAH transport in OK cells and that the messenger system mediated by protein kinase C, not protein kinase A, plays an important role in the regulation of PAH transport by PTH.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a major inhibitor of renal proximal tubule (PT) sodium-dependent phosphate (Na+-Pi) cotransport. PTH is thought to exert its effect on Pi transport in the PT via the protein kinase A (PKA) and C (PKC) intracellular signalling pathways. PKC-dependent phosphorylation of phospholipase A2 stimulates arachidonic acid (AA) release, the latter a potent inhibitor of Pi transport. In turn, AA is metabolized to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) in the PT. In addition, 20-HETE production is stimulated by PTH. We therefore explored the possibility that 20-HETE may mediate the PTH/PKC inhibition of renal Na+-Pi cotransport. To this end, we tested the effect of 20-HETE on Na+-Pi cotransport in proximal tubule-like cells. Exposure of opossum kidney (OK) cells for 4 h to 20-HETE (10(-7) M) decreased Na+-dependent uptake of 32Pi (from 0.26 +/- 0.02 to 0.19 +/- 0.01 nmol/mg protein.min) by approximately 25% (P < 0.001). The inhibition was due to a reduction in Vmax. 20-HETE had no significant effect on either the apical amiloride-sensitive and insensitive 22Na uptakes or on basolateral ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake, and was specific for Pi. These results indicate that 20-HETE specifically inhibits Na+-dependent Pi transport in OK cells and that it may be a mediator of PTH action in the PT.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related protein interact with a G protein-coupled receptor linked to the activation of adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C signaling pathways. Regulation by PTH of the expression of three distinct, stably transfected luciferase reporter genes responsive to cAMP (CRE-luc), serum (SRE-luc) and phorbol ester (TRE-luc) has been studied in rat osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells. Maximal 43-fold induction of CRE-luc expression occurred in response to 100 nM rat (r)PTH(1-34) (EC50=0.44 nM), but SRE-luc and TRE-luc remained unaffected. Maximal 2.8- and 3.4-fold inductions of SRE-luc by 10 ng/ml EGF and 100 nM phorbol ester (PMA) were suppressed with 100 nM rPTH(1-34) (IC50=0.04 and 0.15 nM, respectively). Similarly, 7.3-fold induction of TRE-luc by 100 nM PMA was inhibited to 50% with 100 nM rPTH(1-34) (IC50=0.5 nM). Activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase by EGF and PMA was also suppressed by rPTH(1-34). 1 mM 8-Br-cAMP and 0.1 mM forskolin mimicked all the effects of rPTH(1-34). In conclusion, the regulation of target genes by PTH in osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells is mediated by the activation of the cAMP/protein kinase A signaling pathway.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulates gene expression in skeletal osteoblasts mainly through the cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway. In neuroendocrine cells, activation of the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway leads to induction of the inducible cAMP early repressor (ICER), which is transcribed from an intronic promoter of the CREM gene and acts as a transcriptional repressor. To investigate whether PTH induces ICER expression in osteoblastic cells, RNA from MC3T3-E1 cells was subjected to reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction using primers spanning the ICER sequence. Amplified products were subcloned, sequenced, and used as a probe for Northern blot analysis. In MC3T3-E1 cells, PTH induced ICER mRNA levels, which peaked at 2 h and declined to baseline by 8 h. Cycloheximide caused superinduction of ICER mRNA in response to PTH. In cultured mouse calvariae, PTH also induced ICER mRNA accumulation, which peaked at 2 h and returned almost to baseline by 10 h. Overexpression of ICER IIgamma decreased both baseline and PTH-stimulated prostaglandin G/H synthase 2 promoter activity in MC3T3-E1 cells. The induction of ICER represents a novel mechanism by which PTH regulates gene expression in osteoblastic cells.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) treatment of bone and kidney-derived cells not only activates adenylyl cyclase but also increases intracellular free calcium, and translocates protein kinase C (PKC) from cytosol to plasma membranes. We have found that acute phorbol ester pretreatment significantly decreases PTH-induced calcium transients and the effect of phorbol ester was antagonized by staurosporine (ST). Although the major effect of ST in that study was the reversal of the action of phorbol ester, it appeared that ST may also have promoted the effect of PTH directly. To further investigate the observation, we examined the effect of ST on the intracellular calcium transients induced by PTH and alpha-thrombin (alpha-TH). For calcium transient experiments, UMR-106 cells were loaded with 2 mM fluo-acetoxymethylester for 30 min at room temperature. The cells were then washed and suspended in buffer containing 1 mM calcium. Fluorescence was detected at 530 nm, with excitation at 505 nm. ST alone did not cause calcium transients, but enhanced the transients elicited by PTH when added 5 min before the hormone. Another protein kinase inhibitor H-7 likewise enhanced the calcium responses elicited by PTH, while genistein did not affect PTH response. Calcium transients elicited by alpha-TH were also enhanced by ST. The results suggest that there might be tonically activated endogenous protein kinase(s) which inhibit calcium signaling of some calcemic agents.

Extracellular nucleotides acting through specific P2 receptors activate intracellular signaling cascades. Consistent with the expression of G protein-coupled P2Y receptors in skeletal tissue, the human osteosarcoma cell line SaOS-2 and primary osteoblasts express P2Y1 and P2Y2 receptors, respectively. Their activation by nucleotide agonists (ADP and ATP for P2Y1; ATP and UTP for P2Y2) elevates [Ca2+]i and moderately induces expression of the c-fos proto-oncogene. A synergistic effect on c-fos induction is observed by combining ATP and parathyroid hormone, a key bone cell regulator. Parathyroid hormone elevates intracellular cAMP levels and correspondingly activates a stably integrated reporter gene driven by the Ca2+/cAMP-responsive element of the human c-fos promoter. Nucleotides have little effect on either cAMP levels or this reporter, instead activating luciferase controlled by the full c-fos promoter. This induction is reproduced by a stably integrated serum response element reporter independently of mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and ternary complex factor phosphorylation. This novel example of synergy between the cAMP-dependent protein kinase/CaCRE signaling module and a non-mitogen-activated protein kinase/ternary complex factor pathway that targets the serum response element shows that extracellular ATP, via P2Y receptors, can potentiate strong responses to ubiquitous growth and differentiative factors.
