1. Plasma membranes were purified from bovine kidney cortex, with a fourfold increase in specific activity of parathyroid hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase over that in the crude homogenate. The membranes were characterized by enzyme studies. 2. Parathyroid hormone was labelled with (125)I by an enzymic method and the labelled hormone shown to bind to the plasma membranes and to be specifically displaced by unlabelled hormone. Parathyroid hormone labelled by the chloramine-t procedure showed no specific binding. (75)Se-labelled human parathyroid hormone, prepared in cell culture, also bound to the membranes. 3. Parathyroid hormone was shown to retain biological activity after iodination by the enzymic method, but no detectable activity remained after chloramine-t treatment. 4. High concentration of pig insulin inhibited binding of labelled parathyroid hormone to plasma membranes and partially inhibited the hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity in a crude kidney-cortex preparation. 5. EDTA enhanced and Ca(2+) inhibited binding of labelled parathyroid hormone to plasma membranes. 6. Whereas rat kidney homogenates were capable of degrading labelled parathyroid hormone to trichloroacetic acid-soluble fragments, neither crude homogenates nor purified membranes from bovine kidney showed this property. 7. Binding of parathyroid hormone is discussed in relation to metabolism and initial events in hormone action.

Urinary excretion of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (3',5'-AMP) was tested in normal subjects and patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism, idiopathic hypoparathyroidism, surgical hypoparathyroidism, and pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism under basal conditions and after a 15 min infusion of purified parathyroid hormone. Basal excretion of the nucleotide was less than normal in the patients with hypocalcemic disorders and greater than normal in pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism. Parathyroid hormone caused a marked increase in excretion of 3',5'-AMP in all subjects except those with pseudohypoparathyroidism; nine patients with this disorder did not respond to the hormone and four showed a markedly deficient response. Radioimmunoassay showed that parathyroid hormone circulated in increased amounts in plasma from patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism and became undetectable when serum calcium was increased above 12 mg/100 ml. Suppression of parathyroid hormone secretion by induction of hypercalcemia did not alter the deficient response to exogenous hormone. The results indicate that: (a) parathyroid hormone circulates in abnormally high concentrations in pseudohypoparathyroidism and secretion of the hormone responds normally to physiological control by calcium; (b) testing urinary excretion of 3',5'-AMP in response to infusion of purified parathyroid hormone appears to be an accurate and sensitive index for establishing the diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism; and (c) the metabolic defect of the disorder can be accounted for by a lack of or defective form of parathyroid hormone-sensitive adenyl cyclase in bone and kidney.

Chlorpromazine (3 x 10(-4)M) prevents the stimulation of adenyl cyclase activity in thyroid membranes produced by thyrotropin and prostaglandin, ACTH stimulation of adenyl cyclase in adrenal tissue, and glucagon- and epinephrine-stimulation of adenyl cyclase activity in liver. Baseline activity is unaffected. Parathyroid hormone stimulation of kidney preparations was not inhibited under these conditions. At chlorpromazine concentrations >3 x 10(-4)M F(-)-stimulated cyclase activity of thyroid and adrenal tissue was increased. Other phenothiazines, trifluoperazine, and prochlorperazine, have similar effects on thyrotropin and F(-)-stimulated cyclase activity of thyroid. Na(+)- K(+)-dependent ATPase of thyroid is also inhibited by chlorpromazine. Since thymol causes a similar dissociation of hormone- and F(-)-stimulated adenyl cyclase, it is concluded that the surface properties of these agents best account for their effects on adenyl cyclase.

Hypocalcemia and resistance to exogenous parathyroid hormone have been reported in several clinical states associated with magnesium deficiency. On the basis of such observations, it has been suggested that magnesium depletion per se may result in impaired responsiveness of the adenyl cyclase-adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (3',5'-AMP) system. To test this hypothesis, 4 wk old male parathyroidectomized rats were maintained on normal or magnesium-deficient diets for 4 wk and their responses to parathyroid hormone compared. Serum magnesium and calcium fell progressively in the magnesium-deficient group. Despite clinical and biochemical evidence of severe magnesium deficiency in these animals, renal production and excretion of 3',5'-AMP in response to parathyroid hormone was normal both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, administration of either dibutyryl 3',5'-AMP or parathyroid extract to fasting magnesium-depleted rats produced a normal increase in serum calcium. Parathyroid hormone infusion studies demonstrated normal renal and skeletal responsiveness as measured by urinary excretion of calcium, magnesium, phosphate, and hydroxyproline. These data show that the effect of parathyroid hormone on 3',5'-AMP formation and excretion, the responsiveness of skeletal tissue to 3',5'-AMP, and the renal and skeletal system responses to parathyroid hormone are not altered by pure magnesium deficiency in the parathyroidectomized rat.

Parathyroid hormone increased basal adenyl cyclase activity and that increase was inhibited by prostaglandin E(1) (PGE(1)). Tissue cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) concentrations were increased by parathyroid hormone and that increase was likewise inhibited by PGE(1). Both parathyroid hormone and dibutyryl cyclic AMP increased (32)P incorporation into renal cortical phospholipids. PGE(1) diminished the effect of parathyroid hormone but not dibutyryl cyclic AMP to influence that parameter. PGE(1) likewise modulated the effect of parathyroid hormone but not dibutyryl cyclic AMP to decrease fractional phosphate reabsorption by the renal tubule. It is suggested that PGE(1) inhibits the effect of parathyroid hormone by decreasing its effect on adenyl cyclase. Such interaction may be important in modulating the intracellular action of parathyroid hormone on kidney cortex.

Adenyl cyclase from plasma membrane fractions of rat renal cortex or medulla was assayed by measuring conversion of adenosine triphosphate labeled at the alpha-phosphate with (32)P to cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate labeled with 32P. Parathyroid hormone activated the enzyme primarily in cortex; vasopressin acted primarily in medulla. These experiments support the conclusion that cyclic adenosine monophosphate mediates the action of parathyroid hormone on the kidney and show that parathyroid hormone and vasopressin stimulate adenyl cyclase at anatomically separable areas within the kidney.

Supernatant fluids from the cultures of bone marrow cells from 10 of 12 patients with multiple myeloma (MM) caused bone resorption in organ cultures of fetal rat calvaria. In four patients, the marrow cells were cultured with and without indomethacin (1 muM). The supernatant fluids from indomethacintreated marrow cultures caused significantly less bone resorption than supernatant fluids of cell cultures without indomethacin. This inhibition of release of bone resorbing factor(s) by myeloma cultures is similar to the previously observed indomethacin-induced inhibition of osteoclast-activating factor (OAF) production by activated human leukocytes. None of the MM supernatants had any effect on cyclic (c)AMP accumulation in resorbing bone in vitro. Four separate preparations of partially purified OAF obtained from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral human leukocytes were tested for their ability (a) to cause bone resorption in organ cultures of fetal rat and neonatal mouse calvaria and (b) to cause accumulation of cAMP in rat and mouse skeletal tissue in vitro. Those dilutions of OAF that caused bone resorption had no effect on accumulation of cAMP in rat or mouse calvaria incubated in vitro. In addition, no stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in membranes prepared from fetal rat calvaria could be found. Bone cell populations isolated by sequential collagenase digestion of fetal rat calvaria also showed no cAMP response to these dilutions of OAF. Parathyroid hormone caused a clear response in all three systems. Furthermore, no cAMP response to OAF was observed in calvaria in the presence of cholera toxin (1 mug/ml) and isobutyl-methylxanthine (0.3 mM). These observations demonstrate that (a) supernatant fluids from MM marrow cultures stimulate bone resorption but do not increase cAMP accumulation in vitro; (b) indomethacin interferes with the release of bone resorbing factors by MM bone marrow cultures suggesting that this process requires prostaglandins; and (c) Sephadex G100 or G75 purified OAF does not stimulate adenylate cyclase or increase cAMP accumulation at equivalent bone resorbing concentrations in rat and mouse skeletal tissue. The resorptive action of MM culture fluids is similar to that of partially purified OAF from activated cultured leukocytes, but different from those of other bone resorbing factors, parathyroid hormone and prostaglandin E(2), which stimulate cAMP production in skeletal tissue.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin exert well known effects on the renal tubule which are thought to involve specific hormone receptors and adenyl cyclase. In the intestine, it is not clear whether the action of PTH and calcitonin is only indirect or also direct, and their mechanisms of action are much less well established. In the present study, possible direct effects of PTH and calcitonin on Na+ transport in isolated intestinal epithelial cells of rats were investigated. In the presence of bovine PTH (1.2 I.U/ml) in the incubation medium, the Na+ efflux rate constant (oKNa) of isolated enterocytes was significantly reduced when compared to that in control experiments with the hormone vehicle only. The mean depression of oKNa induced by bovine PTH was 26% as compared to the control (100%) and to that induced by ouabain (4.0 mM) which was 44%. No depressant effect of bovine PTH on oKNa was observed when the isolated enterocytes were incubated with ouabain (4.0 mM). Thus, bovine PTH appeared to inhibit the ouabain-sensitive Na+ pump. When incubating the isolated epithelial cells in an EGTA-containing CA2+-free medium, bovine PTH lost its capacity to inhibit oKNa. Thus, the presence of extracellular Ca2+ appeared necessary for the inhibitory effect of bovine PTH. In contrast to its effect on oKNa, bovine PTH induced no change in net Na+ uptake by isolated enterocytes. Moreover, no significant effect on enterocyte Na+ transport could be demonstrated for salmon or porcine calcitonin at two different concentrations in the incubation medium, Neither bovine PTH nor salmon calcitonin induced significant changes in enterocyte cyclic AMP or cycle GMP concentrations. It was concluded that bovine PTH, but not calcitonin, exerted a directed inhibitory effect on the ouabain-sensitive oKNa of isolated rat enterocytes. The effect of bovine PTH occurred without measurable activation of the cyclic nucleotide system but needed the presence of Ca2+ in the incubation medium to be operative.

It is known that the administration of parathyroid hormone to dogs results in phosphaturia and decreased phosphate transport in brush-border vesicles isolated from the kidneys of those dogs. Parathyroid hormone has been shown to activate adenylate cyclase at the basal-lateral membrane of the renal proximal tubular cell. It has been postulated that parathyroid hormone-induced phosphaturia is effected through phosphorylation of brush-border protein by membrane-bound cAMP-dependent protein kinase. An experimental system was designed such that phosphorylation of brush-border vesicles and Na+-stimulated solute transport could be studied in the same preparations. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of membrane vesicles revealed cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of 2 protein bands (Mr = 96,000 and 62,000), which was enhanced by exposure of the inside of the membrane vesicles to ATP and cAMP. Cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of brush-border vesicles was accompanied by inhibition of Na+-stimulated Pi but not D-glucose transport or 22Na+ uptake. When renal brush-border vesicles from parathyroidectomized and normal dogs were phosphorylated in vitro in the presence and absence of cAMP, both the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation and inhibition of Na+-stimulated Pi transport were greater in vesicles isolated from kidneys of parathyroidectomized dogs relative to control animals. We conclude that the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of brush-border membrane-vesicle proteins is associated with specific inhibition of Na+-stimulated Pi transport. The phosphaturic action of parathyroid hormone (PTH) could be mediated through the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of specific brush-border membrane proteins.

Parathyroid hormone- (PTH) stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in homogenates of rat renal cortex was inhibited by l-epinephrine. The specificity of the inhibition indicated that it was mediated by alpha 2-receptors. The inhibition of PTH-stimulated activity was greater than the inhibition of basal activity. The absolute decrease in adenylate cyclase activity produced by 10-4 M l-epinephrine was from 16.3 +/-0.6 (SE) to 11.2 +/- 0.6 pmol.min-1.mg-1 for activity stimulated by 10 microgram/ml PTH. Basal activity was decreased from 2.3 +/- 0.07 to 1.7 +/- 0.04. A similar inhibition of PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase by l-epinephrine was demonstrated in preparations of renal cortical tubules. In contrast, the quantitative decrease in vasopressin-or calcitonin-stimulated activity by 10-4 M l-epinephrine was the same as the decrease in basal activity. These results demonstrate that PTH receptors that stimulated adenylate cyclase and alpha 2-adrenergic receptors that inhibit adenylate cyclase are present on the same cells in the renal tubules. Thus, a mechanism exists whereby alpha-adrenergic agonists can oppose the tubular actions of PTH via a direct inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity.
