Growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) exert a variety of actions in renal tissue. To shed light upon the renal GH-IGF I axis we have characterized the cell biology of GH and IGF I in two parts of the nephron that are targets for these peptides, proximal tubule and collecting duct. Receptors for both GH and IGF I are present in the basolateral membrane of the renal proximal tubular cell. GH activates phospholipase C and IGF I stimulates phosphorylation of its receptor at this site. Both peptides directly enhance gluconeogenesis in proximal tubule. GH stimulates IGF I gene expression in collecting duct. IGF I of collecting duct origin could act as a paracrine growth factor in other portions of the nephron. IGF I may be causative of renal hypertrophy that occurs in the settings of hypersomatotropism, unilateral nephrectomy (compensatory hypertrophy) and diabetes mellitus.

Prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) stimulates proliferation of clonal osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells mainly via the stimulation of phospholipase C. These cells constitutively produced and secreted insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). In addition, a neutralizing anti-IGF-I antibody completely abolished DNA synthesis stimulated by PGF2 alpha in MC3T3-E1 cells, suggesting that IGF-I indeed mediates the PGF2 alpha effect. However, PGF2 alpha decreased the expression of IGF-I mRNA and the secretion of immunoreactive IGF-I into the medium, whereas progression activity in the conditioned medium was not affected by PGF2 alpha. Although IGF-I alone did not stimulate DNA synthesis in MC3T3-E1 cells, when PGF2 alpha was added to the cultures, IGF-I stimulated their proliferation. Thus, PGF2 alpha may potentiate the action of IGF-I. At the same time, PGF2 alpha increased the number of high affinity binding sites (molecular mass of 130 kDa) for IGF-I in a dose-dependent manner. The increase in IGF-I-binding site number preceded the elevation of DNA synthesis by approximately 3 h. Furthermore, MC3T3-E1 cells secreted at least three species of IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) with molecular masses of 24, 30, and 34 kDa. In the early period of PGF2 alpha exposure, PGF2 alpha attenuated the secretion of all of these IGFBPs, whereas thereafter, it markedly increased their secretion, especially that of the 34-kDa IGFBP, suggesting a modulation of metabolism and action of IGF-I. These effects of PGF2 alpha on IGF-I receptor number and IGFBP secretion may play a role in the synergism between PGF2 alpha and IGF-I that results in the stimulation of DNA synthesis in MC3T3-E1 cells.

The renal collecting duct is a site of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) synthesis. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is also synthesized within the kidney in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and the distal tubule. EGF has been shown to regulate IGF I expression in nonrenal tissues. To shed light upon a role of EGF in intrarenal regulation of IGF I gene expression, plasma membranes prepared from collecting ducts isolated from rat kidney and collecting ducts themselves were incubated in the presence and absence of recombinant human EGF (hEGF). hEGF enhanced phospholipase C activity in collecting duct plasma membranes establishing the potential for EGF signal transduction at this site. Inclusion of hEGF in suspensions of collecting ducts increased production of immunoreactive IGF I in a concentration-dependent manner. Production was stimulated significantly by addition of 10(-8) or 10(-6) M hEGF to suspensions for 2 h. Levels of IGF I mRNA in collecting ducts were increased 2.8-fold after incubation with 10(-6) M hEGF in vitro. Our findings demonstrate a direct action of hEGF to enhance collecting duct IGF I gene expression in vitro. Such enhancement is likely to reflect an effect of EGF to stimulate IGF I production in the collecting duct of the intact kidney. Since EGF is produced in kidney, our findings are consistent with intrarenal paracrine regulation of IGF I gene expression by EGF.

Filtered inorganic phosphate (Pi) is largely reabsorbed in the proximal tubule. Na-Pi cotransport, with a stoichiometry of at least 2:1, mediates uphill transport at the apical membrane; at the basolateral membrane different types of transport systems can be involved in efflux and uptake of Pi from the interstitium. Regulation of transcellular Pi flux involves alteration of the apical Na-Pi cotransport; at least three different cellular control/sensing systems seem to participate in this regulation and are exemplified by parathyroid hormone (PTH)-dependent inhibition, Pi deprivation-dependent increase, and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I)-dependent increase in Na-Pi cotransport. For PTH inhibition, recent evidence suggests a role of the phospholipase C/protein kinase C-dependent regulatory cascade in inhibition of Na-Pi cotransport, at least at low PTH concentrations. In addition, an endocytic mechanism seems to be involved in this PTH action. Little is known of the cellular mechanisms in Pi deprivation-dependent and/or IGF-I-dependent increases in Na-Pi cotransport; they are dependent on de novo protein synthesis. Recent experiments involving an expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes led to the identification of an approximately 50 kDa membrane protein that is a good candidate for being involved in brush-border membrane Na-Pi cotransport activity.

A glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) has been previously identified that serves as a precursor of the polar head group that mimics and may mediate some of the intracellular actions of insulin. Since many of the biological activities of insulin may depend upon the activity of the insulin receptor kinase, we evaluated the requirement for this activity in insulin-dependent GPI hydrolysis. For the analysis we used stably transfected CHO cell lines, expressing either the wild-type human insulin receptor or a mutant receptor that lacks tyrosine kinase activity (Chou et al., 1987) and a stably transfected CHO cell line, expressing the wild-type human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1) receptor (Steele-Perkins et al., 1988). A GPI was identified in both types of transfected cells and in both sets of parental cells by metabolic labeling with [3H]glucosamine or [3H]galactose. The isolated glycolipid was sensitive to hydrolysis by phospholipase C and to deamination by nitrous acid. Insulin induced a time- and dose-dependent hydrolysis of the GPI in the parental line and in the transfected cell types. Cells bearing normal human receptors hydrolyzed up to 70% of their radiolabeled GPI within 2 min of the addition of 0.1 nM insulin, whereas parental cells and cells expressing the mutant receptor hydrolyzed only 20-30% in response to 100 nM insulin. IGF-1 (5-50 nM) had little effect on GPI hydrolysis in these cells as well as in CHO cells expressing the human IGF-1 receptor. It is concluded that insulin-dependent GPI hydrolysis is mediated by the normal but not by a kinase-deficient insulin receptor.

To determine whether growth hormone (GH) directly stimulates insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) gene expression in renal collecting duct, plasma membranes prepared from collecting ducts isolated from rat kidney, and collecting ducts themselves were incubated in presence and absence of GH. GH enhanced phospholipase C activity in collecting duct plasma membranes establishing the potential for GH-signal transduction. Inclusion of GH in suspensions of collecting ducts increased production of immunoreactive IGF I in a time-dependent and concentration-dependent manner. Production was stimulated significantly by addition of 10(-10), 10(-8), or 10(-6) M GH to suspensions for 2 h. IGF I produced in isolated collecting ducts was released into the suspending media. Levels of IGF I mRNA in collecting ducts were increased 2.8-fold after incubation with 10(-6) M GH in vitro. IGF I of collecting duct origin was indistinguishable from recombinant human IGF I in terms of its size and receptor-binding characteristics. Our findings demonstrate a direct action of GH to enhance collecting duct IGF I gene expression in vitro. Such enhancement is likely to reflect the mechanism by which GH stimulates renal IGF I production in intact kidney.

Growth hormone (GH) is required for the terminal differentiation of preadipose Ob1771 cells that have entered the differentiation program as evidenced by the expression of early marker genes (pOb24 and lipoprotein lipase). Induction of c-fos mRNA within 15 min and induction of insulin-like growth factor I mRNA within a few hours take place in response to GH. The role of GH is mediated, at least in part, by means of the activation of protein kinase C, as shown by the inhibition of epidermal growth factor binding and by the expression of the c-fos gene, and is thus analogous to the action of prostaglandin F2 alpha and 4 beta-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate in this respect. However, in contrast to that of the c-fos gene, the regulation of insulin-like growth factor I gene expression by GH is not mediated by means of the activation of protein kinase C, and, in line with this, prostaglandin F2 alpha and 4 beta-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate were ineffective. GH and prostaglandin F2 alpha were able to stimulate the formation of diacyglycerol within a few seconds, but GH did not elicit an accumulation of inositol phosphates, in contrast to that generated by prostaglandin F2 alpha. We conclude that the transduction signal of GH action in c-fos mRNA induction is the formation of diacylglycerol and that the mechanism whereby GH can activate protein kinase C is associated with a phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of glycerophospholipids other than inositol phospholipids.

To determine whether insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) activates phospholipase C in the basolateral membrane of the renal proximal tubular cell, we incubated basolateral membranes isolated from canine kidney with rat IGF-II (rIGF-II) and measured levels of inositol trisphosphate (Ins-P3) in suspensions and of diacylglycerol extractable from the membranes. Incubation with rIGF-II increased levels of Ins-P3 and diacylglycerol in a concentration-dependent manner. Significant enhancement of Ins-P3 levels and extractable diacylglycerol occurred in suspensions incubated with as little as 10(-10) M rIGF-II. Elevated levels of Ins-P3 were measured after as little as 5 sec of incubation. Increases were no longer detectable after 45 sec of incubation, due to dephosphorylation of Ins-P3 in membrane suspensions. Incubation with either insulin or insulin-like growth factor I did not affect the level of Ins-P3. IGF-II-stimulated increases in Ins-P3 did not occur when basolateral membranes were suspended in the absence of free calcium. Increases were demonstrable in basolateral membrane suspensions in 0.1, 0.2, or 0.3 microM calcium, but not in 1.0 microM calcium. Inclusion of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate in incubation mixtures did not increase levels of Ins-P3, nor did it enhance the action of rIGF-II in this regard. However, inclusion of guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate inhibited rIGF-II stimulation of Ins-P3 production. In contrast to findings with basolateral membrane suspensions, incubation with rIGF-II did not increase levels of Ins-P3 in suspensions of isolated brush-border membranes. Our data are consistent with IGF-II-mediated activation of phospholipase C in isolated proximal tubular basolateral membranes. Such an action could reflect the mechanism by which the IGF-II "signal" is transmitted across the basolateral membrane of the renal proximal tubular cell and by which the actions of this peptide are mediated in renal and non-renal cells.

The intracellular localizations of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and of its hydrolyzing enzyme phospholipase C (PLC; in this case the beta 1 isoform) have been evaluated by electron microscope immunocytochemistry in cells exposed to mitogenic or differentiating agents. These cells have been previously demonstrated to present a signal transduction system based on the polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis localized at the nuclear level, which can be specifically modulated by agonists. The results demonstrate that in Swiss 3T3 mouse fibroblasts mitogenically stimulated by insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), a rapid and transient decrease of the PIP2 detectable by immunogold labeling occurs at the nuclear interior. This effect appears due to the activation of the PLC beta 1 isozyme already present in the nucleus, since no significant variations of the enzyme amount and distribution can be detected by immunolabeling. However, after 30 min of exposure to IGF-I, when the PLC beta 1 activity is returned to basal level, a slight but significant increase of the enzyme amount is detected both in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm. On the other hand, an increased accumulation of PIP2 in the nucleus, accompanied by a decrease of the intranuclear amount of PLC beta 1 isozyme, have been observed in mouse erythroleukemia Friend cells, induced to erythroid differentiation by dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). These results indicate that quantitative immunocytochemistry represents an increment in the available methodologies to investigate the complex regulation of nuclear PI-signalling.

The two forms of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), PACAP27 and PACAP38, are neuropeptide hormones related to the vasoactive intestinal peptide/secretin/glucagon family of peptides. PACAP receptors that are positively coupled to adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C have been recently identified. We have investigated the expression of PACAP-Rs in undifferentiated and differentiated PC-12 cells. PACAP27 and PACAP38 failed to significantly increase cAMP or [3H]inositol monophosphate levels in undifferentiated PC-12 cells treated with vehicle, insulin-like growth factor I, or epidermal growth factor but greatly elevated levels after differentiation with nerve growth factor (NGF) or basic fibroblast growth factor. PACAP responsiveness increased significantly after 24 hr of NGF treatment, reaching a maximum within 4 days. At this time of differentiation, the effect of PACAP was dose dependent between 1 nM and 0.1 microM, whereas vasoactive intestinal peptide, at the maximal dose of 10 microM, slightly increased cAMP formation and failed to affect [3H]inositol monophosphate content. Radioreceptor assays, performed with 125I-PACAP27, revealed the induction of high affinity type I PACAP receptors in differentiated PC-12 cells. Using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction methodology, we showed the absence of type I PACAP receptor mRNAs in undifferentiated PC-12 cells and the expression of PACAP-R-hop mRNA after NGF or basic fibroblast growth factor treatment. The increased PACAP responsiveness induced by these growth factors in PC-12 cells may therefore result from the expression of the PACAP-R-hop isoform, positively coupled to both adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C.
