To clarify the possible role of protein kinase C in the control of parathyroid hormone (PTH)-degrading activity (PTHDA) in a PTH-responsive opossum kidney (OK) cell line, we investigated the effects of protein kinase C activators, 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA), 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol (OAG), and 4 beta-phorbol 12, 13-didecanoate (4 beta-PDD). TPA, OAG, and 4 beta-PDD enhanced PTHDA in a dose-dependent fashion (10-50 ng/ml, 10-100 microgram/ml, and 10-50 nM, respectively), whereas 4 alpha-PDD, a non-activator of protein kinase C, did not affect it. HPLC analysis of TPA-treated samples revealed increase of all immunoreactive PTH fragments produced by OK cells. These findings suggested that activation of protein kinase C in OK cells would augment PTHDA in the cells.

In cloned osteoblast-like cells, MC3T3-E1, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a protein kinase C activating phorbol ester, and 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), a specific activator for protein kinase C, stimulated DNA synthesis in a dose-dependent manner. Both TPA and OAG acted synergistically with insulin-like growth factor I to stimulate DNA synthesis. TPA as well as OAG suppressed the increase in alkaline phosphatase activity of MC3T3-E1 cells induced by parathyroid hormone. These results suggest that protein kinase C is involved in the process which directs osteoblast-like cells toward proliferation.

We have identified two protein kinase activities in homogenates of bovine parathyroid tissue following fractionation on DEAE columns. One of these is a protein kinase C based upon its requirement for calcium and phosphatidylserine and the other one is probably M kinase. The protein kinase C phosphorylated both proparathyroid hormone and parathyroid hormone but not secretory protein-I (SP-I). Neither N [1-34] or C [35-84] terminal hormonal fragments were phosphorylated, suggesting that the structure of the intact PTH molecule is required for recognition by the enzyme. A second kinase activity behaving like M kinase was also obtained. This activity, which was not separable from a cAMP dependent kinase, was maximal with only 50 mM MgCl2 as cofactor. SP-I was readily phosphorylated by this activity but parathyroid hormone was not.

When raising the extracellular Ca2+ concentration stepwise from 0.5 to 3.0 mM, bovine parathyroid cells reacted with initial transient and sustained elevations of the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration (Ca2+i), as well as more than 50% inhibition of parathyroid hormone (PTH) release. Human parathyroid adenoma cells and bovine cells cultured for 1 day or exposed to a low concentration of a monoclonal antiparathyroid antibody exhibited right-shifted dependencies of PTH release and Ca2+i on extracellular Ca2+ and reduced Ca2+i transients. The protein kinase C activator 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) further right-shifted the dose response relationship for Ca2+ regulated Ca2+i of the adenoma cells, whereas the protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) tended to normalize it, without affecting Ca2+i of normal bovine cells. In cells from an oxyphil adenoma and a parathyroid carcinoma as well as in bovine cells cultured 4 days or exposed to a high concentration of the antiparathyroid antibody, there were no Ca2+i transients, very small increases in steady-state Ca2+i and nonsuppressible PTH release. The results suggest that reduced availability of a putative Ca2+-receptor and increased protein kinase C activity may be important factors in the decreased Ca2+ sensitivity of abnormal parathyroid cells.

Regulation of protein kinase C in the parathyroid gland was investigated by testing the effects of phorbol ester, exogenous phospholipase C, and low and high calcium concentrations on enzyme activity. Treatment of bovine parathyroid cells with phorbol ester, which activates protein kinase C directly, and with phospholipase C, which produces diacylglycerol, an activator of protein kinase C, significantly stimulated protein kinase C activity. Both agents also enhanced the release of parathyroid hormone. Acute exposure of bovine parathyroid cells to low extracellular calcium (0.5 mM) caused a 5- to 6-fold increase in protein kinase C activity associated with the particulate fraction. In contrast, high extracellular calcium (1.75 mM and 2.5 mM) markedly decreased membrane protein kinase C activity. These data suggest that the effects of extracellular calcium on parathyroid hormone secretion are due, at least in part, to regulation of protein kinase C activity in the parathyroid-cell membrane.

The effects of 12-O-tetraadecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol (OAG), and 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) on the parathyroid hormone (PTH) degrading activity in a PTH-responsive osteoblast-like rat osteosarcoma cell line UMR106 were investigated to assess the role of Ca2+-activated. Phospholipid dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) on the degradation of hormones. TPA and OAG, activators of protein kinase C, enhanced the PTH degrading activity dose-dependently, whereas H-7, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition on this activity. These data suggest that protein kinase C activation may enhance PTH degrading activity by UMR106 cells as a possible regulator of PTH degradation.

When added to primary cultures of chick kidney cells, 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) decreased the basal rate of production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and increased that of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3). The normal stimulatory effect of parathyroid hormone and forskolin on 1,25(OH)2D3 production was abolished or blunted by the presence of TPA and TPA overcame the inhibitory effect of PTH and forskolin on 24,25(OH)2D3 production. The evidence suggests that protein kinase C may be involved in the regulation of 25(OH)D3 metabolism by chick kidney cells.

Unlike in other endocrine systems calcium inhibits parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and this inhibition is paralleled by a rise of cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca]i). Because of evidence that diglyceride levels and protein kinase C activity are also decreased by high extracellular calcium we have investigated the effects of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an activator of protein kinase C, on [Ca]i and PTH secretion using dispersed bovine parathyroid cells. At 1.5 mM medium calcium TPA enhanced PTH secretion and caused reduction of [Ca]i from 639 +/- 36 nM (SE) to 335 +/- 21 nM (P less than 0.001); at 0.5 mM calcium TPA was ineffective. Moreover, TPA suppressed the rise of [Ca]i evoked by high extracellular calcium. Thus TPA presumably stimulates PTH secretion via activation of protein kinase C, and the lowering of [Ca]i may TPA presumably stimulates PTH secretion via activation of protein kinase C, and the lowering of [Ca]i may be a secondary event related to diglyceride availability.

The relationship between the concentration of cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) was investigated in isolated bovine parathyroid cells using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, quin 2. Increasing the concentration of extracellular Ca2+ from 0.5 to 2.0 mM caused a 3-fold increase in [Ca2+]i (from 183 +/- 4 to 568 +/- 21 nM) which was associated with a 2-4-fold decrease in secretion of PTH. Decreasing extracellular Ca2+ to about 1 microM caused a corresponding fall in [Ca2+]i to 60-90 nM. Extracellular Ca2+-induced changes in [Ca2+]i were not affected by omission of extracellular Na+. Depolarizing concentrations of K+ (30 mM) depressed [Ca2+]i at all concentrations of extracellular Ca examined, and this was associated with increased secretion of PTH. Ionomycin (0.1 or 1 microM) increased [Ca2+]i at extracellular Ca2+ concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mM, but inhibited secretion of PTH only at Ca concentrations near the "Ca2+ set point" (1.25 microM). In contrast, dopamine, norepinephrine (10 microM each), and Li+ (20 mM) potentiated secretion of PTH without causing any detectable change in [Ca2+]i. The results obtained with these latter secretagogues provide evidence for a mechanism of secretion which is independent of net changes in [Ca2+]i. The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) did not alter [Ca2+]i or secretion of PTH at low (0.5 mM) extracellular Ca2+ concentrations. At 2.0 mM extracellular Ca2+, however, TPA (20 nM or 1 microM) depressed [Ca2+]i and potentiated secretion of PTH. The addition of TPA prior to raising the extracellular Ca2+ concentration reduced the subsequent increase in [Ca2+]i. The results show that the effects of TPA on secretion in the parathyroid cell are not readily dissociated from changes in [Ca2+]i and suggest that some TPA-sensitive process, perhaps involving protein kinase C, may be involved in those mechanisms that regulate [Ca2+]i in response to changes in extracellular Ca2+.

A possible mechanism of zinc action inhibiting the PTH-induced osteoclast-like cell formation in mouse marrow culture system in vitro was investigated. Bone marrow cells were cultured for 7 days in alpha-minimal essential medium containing a well-known bone-resorbing agent parathyroid hormone (1-34) (PTH). Osteoclast-like cell formation was estimated with staining for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP), a marker enzyme of osteoclasts. The effect of zinc sulfate (10(-6) M) or beta-alanyl-L-histidinato zinc (AHZ; 10(-6) M) inhibiting the PTH (10(-8) M)-induced osteoclast-like cell formation was clearly seen in the absence or presence of theophylline (10(-4) M). However, zinc compounds did not inhibit the stimulatory effect of dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (DBcAMP; 10(-4) M) on osteoclast-like cell formation. The stimulating effect of PTH (10(-8) M) on osteoclast-like cell formation was clearly weakened (about 50%) in the presence of EGTA (1.0 mM) or dibucaine (10(-5) M). Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C activator (10(-8) to 10(-6) M), clearly stimulated osteoclast-like cell formation. PMA effect was inhibited by the presence of AHZ (10(-6) M) or zinc sulfate (10(-8) M). However, the inhibitory effect of zinc compounds was not seen in the presence of both PTH (10(-8) M) and PMA (10(-6) M). The present findings suggest that zinc compounds inhibit PTH-stimulated osteoclast-like cell formation mediated through the Ca(2+)-dependent activation of protein kinase C.
