1. Renal tubular membranes from rat kidneys were prepared, and adenylate cyclase activity was measured under basal conditions, after stimulation by NaF or salmon calcitonin. Apparent Km value of the enzyme for hormone-linked receptor was close to 1 x 10(-8) M. 2. The system was sensitive to temperature and pH. pH was found to act both on affinity for salmon calcitonin-linked receptor and maximum stimulation, suggesting an effect of pH on hormone-receptor binding and on a subsequent step. 3. KCl was without effect areas whereas CoCl and CaCl2 above 100 muM and MnCl2 above 1 muM inhibited F- -and salmon calcitonin-sensitive adenylate cyclase activities. The Ca2+ inhibition of the response reflected a fall in maximum stimulation and not a loss of affinity of salmon calcitonin-linked receptor for the enzyme. 4. The measurement of salmon calcitonin-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity as a function of ATP concentration showed that the hormone increases the maximum velocity of the adenylate cyclase. GTP, ITP and XTP at 200 muM did not modify basal, salmon calcitonin- and parathyroid hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase activities. 5. Basal, salmon calcitonin- and F- -sensitive adenylate cyclase activities decreased at Mg2+ concentrations below 10 mM. High concentrations of Mg2+ (100 mM) led to an inhibition of the F- -stimulated enzyme. 6. Salmon calcitonin-linked receptor had a greater affinity for adenylate cyclase than human or porcine calcitonin-linked receptors. There was no additive effect of these three calcitonin peptides whereas parathyroid hormone added to salmon calcitonin increased adenylate cyclase activity, thus showing that both hormones bound to different membrane receptors. Human calcitonin fragments had no effect on adenylate cyclase activity. 7. Salmon calcitonin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity decreased with the preincubation time. This was due to progressive degradation of the hormone and not to the rate of binding to membrane receptors.

A membrane fraction enriched in parathyroid hormone (PTH)-sensitive adenylate cyclase and sodium and potassium ion-activated (Na+, K+)-ATPase was prepared from bovine kidney. Tritiated PTH binding to this membrane fraction was dependent on both hormone and membrane protein concentration. Both total and specific binding of the hormone decreased significantly after 5 to 10 min of incubation at 22 degrees. PTH binding was highly specific, being sensitive to inhibition only with active forms of unlabeled hormone (native and 1-34 PTH). Specific binding showed a pH optimum of 7.3 to 7.5. Inhibition of binding of tritiated hormone by unlabeled PTH was also highly effective at pH 6.0, but this apparently specific binding was also inhibited by adrenocorticotropic hormone, insulin, glucagon, and vasopressin. Dissociation of bound hormone was demonstrated, and an apparent dissociation constant of 4.6 X 10(-2) min-1 was obtained. Specific binding was eliminated by pretreatment of the membranes with trypsin. The concentration dependence for inhibition of binding with unlabeled PTH was identical to that for activation of adenylate cyclase in this membrane preparation, and binding was also inhibited by concentrations of calcium in the 0.5 to 2 mM range.

Bovine kidney plasma membranes containing parathyroid hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity were dispersed with 1% Triton X-100 and centrifuged at 150,000 X g for 2 h. Approximately 40% of the total membrane protein was extracted by this procedure. The extraction greatly reduces the fluoride-stimulated and the parathyroid hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity of the membranes and yields a supernatnat which binds biologically active, tritiated parathyroid hormone. Hormone binding is stable for up to 15 h and has a linear dependence on protein concentration in the extract. Binding of the labeled hormone at concentrations of 5 to 10 nM is inhibited by preincubation with unlabeled min, and displays a dependence on temperature, time, and pH. Binding specificity is maximal at physiological pH, being inhibited by only the native hormone or its synthetic 1-34 NH2-terminal, biologically active fragment. Binding increases dramatically at pH 6.0, but is nonspecific in character. Half-maximal inhibition of the binding was achieved at 3.2 X 10(-7) M concentrations of the native hormone and 5.0 X 10(-7) M concentrations of the synthetic 1-34 NH2-terminal fragment. Calcium does not inhibit either total or specific binding. Inhibition, kinetic, and pH dependence data suggest that the extracted component(s) represent the parathyroid hormone binding protein(s) formerly identified in particulate membrane preparations.

The effect of parathyroid hormone and calcitonin on the renal excretion of phosphate, calcium, and cyclic AMP was evaluated in the thyroparathyroidectomized hamster, a mammal apparently reisstant to the phosphaturic effect of parathyroid hormone. Parathyroid hormone did not increase phosphate excretion, although it decreased excretion of calcium and increased urinary excretion of cyclic AMP. This lack of a phosphaturic response to parathyroid hormone was not reversed by administration of 25-OH vitamin D or infusions of calcium or phosphate. Calcitonin, another potentially phosphaturic hormone, also vailed to increase phosphate excretion but markedly elevated urinary excretion of cyclic AMP. In hamsters pretreated with infusion of urinary ammonium chloride, which decreased plasma and urinary pH, both parathyroid hormone and calcitonin increased excretion of phosphate as well as that of cyclic AMP. Acetazolamide had no phosphaturic effect in ammonium chloride-loaded hamsters, and it decreased cyclic AMP and calcium excretion. Alkalinization of urine by acetazolamide did not prevent the phosphaturic effect of parathyroid hormone in ammonium chloride-loaded hamsters, but it blocked the increase in urinary cyclic AMP excretion. Parathyroid hormone and calcitonin both stimulated adenylate cyclase in a cell-free system (600-g pellet) from hamster renal cortex, elevated tissue cyclic AMP levels, and activated protein kinase in tissue slices from hamster renal cortex. In acid medium, the increase in cyclic AMP and activation of protein kinase in response to parathyroid hormone was diminished, but addition of acetazolamide restored responsiveness of both parameters to control values. Acetazolamide, on the other hand, did not influence adenylate cyclase or its response to parathyroid hormone or cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. We conclude that the lack of a phosphaturic effect of parathyroid hormone and calcitonin in the hamster depends on steps in the cellular action of these hormones, steps that are sensitive to pH subsequent to cyclic AMP generation and protein kinase activation. In addition, acetazolamide may potentiate the phosphaturic effect of parathyroid hormone by promoting accumulation of cyclic AMP in tissue. Thus, the hamster is a particularly useful model for studies of syndromes in which there is renal resistance to phosphaturic hormones.

Luminal brush border and contraluminal basal-lateral segments of the plasma membrane from the same kidney cortex were prepared. The brush border membrane preparation was enriched in trehalase and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase, whereas the basal-lateral membrane preparation was enriched in (Na+ + K+1)-ATPase. However, the specific activity of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in brush border membranes also increased relative to that in the crude plasma membrane fraction, suggesting that (Na+ + K+)-ATPase may be an intrinsic constituent of the renal brush border membrane in addition to being prevalent in the basal-lateral membrane. Adenylate cyclase had the same distribution pattern as (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, i.e. higher specific activity in basal-lateral membranes and present in brush border membranes. Adenylate cyclase in both membrane preparations was stimulated by parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, epinephrine, prostaglandins and 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate. When the agonists were used in combination enhancements were additive. In contrast to the distribution of adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase was found in the cytosol and in basal-lateral membranes with a maximal specific activity (NaN3 plus Triton X-100) 10-fold that in brush border membranes. ATP enhanced guanylate cyclase activity only in basal-lateral membranes. It is proposed that guanylate cyclase, in addition to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, be used as an enzyme "marker" for the renal basal-lateral membrane.

The effects of dopaminergic agonists and antagonists have been studied in dispersed bovine parathyroid cells. Dopaminergic agonists caused a transient 20- to 40-fold increase in cellular cyclic AMP and a 2- to 3-fold increase in parathyroid hormone release. Dose-response relationships were similar for cyclic AMP accumulation and hormone release, whether studied by increasing agonist concentration or by increasing concentration of antagonist with constant agonist. The effects on the dopamine receptor could be differentiated from those of the previously characterized beta-adrenergic receptor by specific inhibitors. These results appear to represent proof with a homogeneous cell population that dopaminergic receptors linked to adenylate cyclase can regulate a secretory process mediated by cyclic AMP. This system should be useful in further studies on dopamine receptors and should provide a valid tool for determining interactions of radiolabeled ligands with such receptors.

Isolated rat renal glomeruli contain an adenylate cyclase system and guanylate cyclase system. Adenylate cyclase was strikingly activated by purified parathyroid hormone, epinephrine, prostaglandin I2 and histamine. The demonstration of PTH activated adenylate cyclase in glomeruli raises the possibility of a role of this hormone in regulation of glomerular filtration rate. Guanylate cyclase was strikingly activated by CA2+, nitrate derivatives such as sodium nitroprusside. Its role remained still unknown.

Studies are presented in a patient with pseudohypoparathyroidism who showed a partial response to parathyroid extract. Resistance to the extract was observed after its short-term administration for the gourth time. Serum from the patient contained antibodies of the gamma G globulin class which bound 125I-labelled bovine parathyroid hormone. Prior incubation of parathyroid hormone with the serum prevented the activation in vitro of adenylate cyclase from pork renal cortex. The antibodies were directed primarily toward the C-terminal portion of the molecule. Thus, clinical resistance to parathyroid hormone is attributed to specific antibodies.

Autoantibodies which block the binding of parathyroid hormone to membrane receptors for the hormone were detected in the sera (especially in the IgG fraction) of 49 out of 50 uraemic patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (patients with high levels of C-regional parathyroid hormone). These antibodies are species-specific. Their presence in the serum in unaffected by dialysis. Inhibition of binding appears to be related to the rise in C-regional parathyroid-hormone levels and the duration of uraemia. The production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate by parathyroid-hormone-stimulated adenyl cyclase was reduced by the blocking antibodies. The findings show that secondary hyperparathyrodism in uraemia is another example of a receptor-antibody disease, but it is not known whether the antibodies act by modifying the affinity of the receptors for the hormone or by reducing the concentration of receptors available.

Concentrations of cyclic AMP (cAMP) were increased in isolated renal cortical tubules from hamsters by both parathyroid hormone (PTH) and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) with maximal effects of PGE1 being 6-8 fold greater than those of PTH during a 10 min period. However, cAMP concentrations in cells treated with 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (MIX) were increased with maximal concentrations of either hormone to the same degree. Similar effects of both hormones were observed on adenylate cyclase activity in renal homogenates. Simultaneous addition of hormones produced changes in both cAMP concentrations in intact tubules as well as adenylate cyclase activity of homogenates which were not completely additive. Degradation of cAMP, estimated in intact tubules as the difference in cAMP levels in the presence and absence of MIX, was increased by both hormones, however, changes were 2-3 fold greater in tubules exposed to PTH than to PGE1. Neither hormone directly altered cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity in either 30,000 x g supernatant or pellets from renal cortical homogenates. The results suggest that both hormones increase the production of cAMP in renal cortical tubules and may share a common target cell type in this response. Degradation of cAMP, however, is differentially effected by the two hormones, probably reflecting differences exerted on intracellular mechanisms regulating the enzymatic hydrolysis of cAMP.
