Nine uraemic patients not yet on dialysis received IV 1 microgram/kg/min of propranolol for 85 min after a priming dose of 1 mg. Fifteen days later six of them received IV 1.2 microgram/kg/min of metoprolol after a priming dose of 1.2 mg. Plasma concentrations of PTH and calcitonin decreased significantly with propranolol but not with metoprolol. No change was observed with either drug as regards plasma concentration of total and ionised Ca and PO4. Heart rate was decreased similarly with both drugs. We conclude that (i) propranolol acutely suppresses PTH and Calcitonin secretion in uraemic patients. This warrants further studies to assess its long term effects on the secretion of these hormones and on renal osteodystrophy; (ii) the contrast between the significant effect of propranolol and the lack of effect with metoprolol supports the concept that PTH and CT secretion are moderated through specific beta 2 receptors.

This study evaluated the effect of somatostatin on immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and calcitonin (iCT) secretion in vivo in rats and monkeys and on iPTH secretion in vitro by normal bovine parathyroid tissue and by a human parathyroid adenoma. Somatostatin infusion promptly (within 0.5 h) suppressed both iPTH and iCT in both species studied in vivo, the suppression being progressive during the infusion period. In in vitro studies, somatostatin caused significant dose-related decreases in basal, low Ca-stimulated, and high Ca-suppressed PTH secretion from normal bovine parathyroid tissue and from basal and low Ca-stimulated PTH secretion from a human parathyroid adenoma. Therefore, somatostatin 1) suppresses both PTH and CT secretion in vivo; 2) acts directly on the parathyroid cell and presumably directly on the C-cell also; 3) acts upon normal and adenomatous parathyroid tissue; 4) suppresses basal, low Ca-stimulated and high Ca-suppressed PTH secretion; and 5) has a dose-related effect. The possible role of somatostatin in the physiological control of PTH and CT secretion (and therefore in Ca homeostasis), and in the pathogenesis of abnormalities of Ca homeostasis, requires further evaluation.

Parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, and prostaglandin E2 activate the adenylate cyclase-cyclic AMP system in fetal-rat calvaria. These agents presumably interact with the tissue at separate receptor sites. When calvaria were preincubated with trypsin, 500 mug/ml for 45 min, the subsequent increase in 3',5'-AMP in response to parathyroid hormone was markedly diminished, whereas the response to calcitonin and prostaglandin E2 were not altered significantly. The effect was attributable to an action of the enzyme on the tissue and not to hydrolysis of the hormone. Similarily, preincubation of calvaria with trypsin prior to homogenization and preparation of a crude plasma membrane fraction decreased PTH-sensitive adenylate-cyclase activity by 58% but did not alter the degree of stimulation of the enzyme in response to calcitonin, prostaglandin E2, or sodium fluoride. These studies support the hypothesis that the actions of parathyroid hormone and calcitonin on bone are mediated through distinct receptor sites, and the receptors for parathyroid hormone can be altered selectively with trypsin.

Six populations of bone cells (populations 1-6) were obtained by sequential digestion of mouse calvaria with collagenase and trypsin. After release from the tissue, each cell population was cultured for seven days. Parathormone, but not calcitonin, elicited an increase in intracellular cyclic AMP in the cells of populations 4, 5, and 6. In contrast, both hormones elicited increases in cyclic AMP in populations 2 and 3 but had no effect on population 1. When the cells of population 2 were exposed to a Falcontissue culture polystyrene surface for periods of time up to 5 min, many cells adhered. The nonadhering cell population contained a lesser proportion of cells responsive to calcitonin, whereas the adhering population contained a greater proportion responsive to this hormone. Conversely, when the cells of population 2 were exposed to an acid-treated nylon surface, the nonadhering cells contained a larger proportion of those responsive to calcitonin and a smaller proportion responsive to parathormone. When those cells that were enriched for calcitonin responsiveness were examined, we found an increased proportion that exhibited an asymmetric bipolar morphology. These differed from large amorphous, often binucleate, cells which predominated in those populations that responded exclusively to parathormone. These results establish that bone contains at least two types of target cells--one that responds to parathormone but not calcitonin, the other that responds predominantly to calcitonin.

Two metabolically distinct types of bone cell populations were isolated from mouse calvaria by a repetitive digestive procedure with a mixture of collagenase and trypsin. Cells released early in the digestion showed approximately two-fold increases in cAMP when treated with either parathormone or calcitonin. These populations were denoted CT type. Later eluting cells showed larger parathormone-induced increases in cAMP but did not respond to calcitonin. These populations were denoted PT type. Six metabolic and enzymatic activites were measured in the two types of populations: acid and alkaline phosphatases, hyaluronate synthesis, citrate decarboxylation, prolyl hydroxylase, and general protein synthesis. Although each of these activites was present in both cell types, the basal levels of acid phosphatase and hyaluronate synthesis were higher in the CT cells, whereas alkaline phosphatase, citrate decarboxylation, and prolyl hydroxylase were higher in te PT cells. Parathormone stimulated acid phosphatase and hyaluronate synthesis by 100-200% only in the CT cells; in inhibited alkaline phosphatase, citrate decarboxylation, and prolyl hydroxylase by 75-90% only in the PT cells. Calcitonin alone had no effect on any of these activities other than cAMP production, but in inhibited the action of parathormone in the CT cells. The sensitivities, time courses of development,and magnitudes of these hormonal effects were similar to those observed previously in intact calvaria, indicating that the isolated cell system is a reliable model for the study of bone metabolism. Based on the metabolic responses of the cells, we postulate that the CT type of populations is enriched in osteoclasts and, possibly, osteocytes, and the PT type of population is enriched in osteoblasts.

The ionophore A23187 produced a rapid transient increase in the rate of calcium uptake by isolated fetal rat bone cells. There was no effect on calcium efflux or total cellular calcium. The magnitude of the effect on influx was amplified when the cell were incubated at 4 degrees C. Cellular metabolic functions and resorption of cultured fetal rat bones (release of 45Ca from pre-labeled long bone) were affected by A23187 in a biphasic manner: cell cyclic AMP (cAMP) was increased by 0.1 and 0.3 mug/ml of the ionophore, whereas 10 mug/ml was either ineffective or lowered the cAMP levels. The high A23187 concentration abolished the stimulatory effects of parathyroid hormone and methylisobutylxanthine. Concentrations of 0.1 and 0.3 mug/ml A23187 stimulated bone resorption. The effect was abolished by calcitonin. Ionophore concentrations above 1 mug/ml produced less bone resorption. These higher concentrations antagonized the bone-resorbing effect of parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. A23187 at 5 and 10 mug/ml decreased bone cell lactate and ATP. Thus at low concentrations, A23187 produced effects on bone similar to those of parathyroid hormone, suggesting that calcium is the primary initiator of PTH-induced bone resorption. At the higher concentrations A23187 may have a general inhibitory effect on cell metabolism.

Embryonic chick duodenum maintained in organ culture responds to vitamin D3 in the culture medium by increased cyclic AMP concentration, de novo synthesis of a specific calcium-binding protein and by increased uptake and transmucosal transport of radiocalcium. The presence of bovine PTH, porcine or salmon calcitonin had no effect on these intestinal responses suggesting that these hormones may have no direct effect on the vitamin D3-mediated, intestinal calcium absorptive mechanism.

In order to explore the distribution of hormone-responsive cells in skeletal tissues, we have examined the effects of synthetic bovine parathyroid hormone N-terminal peptide (bPTH 1-34) and salmon calcitonin (sCT) on cyclic AMP levels in periosteum-free rat calvaria, segments of periosteum, and in isolated cells dispersed from each tissue by collagenase digestion. Synthetic bovine PTH increased cyclic AMP levels to a greater degree in calvaria and in isolated bone cells than in the periosteal segments and cells, whereas sCT was more effective in the periosteal than in the bone systems. Primary cultures prepared from bone and periosteal cell populations exhibited progressive increases in their responsiveness to bPTH (1-34) and progressive decreases in responsiveness to sCT. After six days in the culture, bone cells failed to respond to sCT, and sCT did not modify their response simultaneously added bPTH (1-34). Six-day periosteal cell cultures exhibited residual sCT responsivity and an additive response upon simultaneous exposure to high concentrations of bPTH (1-34) and sCT suggesting separate sites of hormone action. Adenosine, a known stimulator of bone cell adenylyl cyclase, caused a greater increase in periosteal cell than in bone cell cyclic AMP. bPTH (1-34)-responsive cells which enrich periosteum-free bone may be osteoblasts, in view of their histological prominence in this tissue and in the bone cell isolates. Periosteal cells which responded to sCT and to adenosine preferentially are unidentified. Although periosteal segments contained numerous fibroblast-like cells, skin fibroblasts cultured from the same fetuses were sCT-insensitive. Growth in primary culture appears to alter the number of hormone-responsive cells or responsiveness of existing cells to each hormone, or both.

The response of the adenylate cyclase (AC) activity to PTH and calcitonin was measured along the nephron of normal (N) and mutant hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mice of the C 57 BL/6J strain, using in vitro single tubule AC microassay. In each experiment, a Hyp mouse was paired to a N mouse from the same litter. In the presence of PTH (10 U/ml), AC activities (femtomoles cAMP per millimeter of tubule per 30-min incubation) were reduced in the proximal convoluted tubule of Hyp mice as compared to N mice in all experiments (448 +/- (SEM) 46 vs. 831 +/- 79, N = 4, P less than 0.01). Some decrease in AC response to PTH also was noted in the cortical portion of the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle (476 +/- 70 in Hyp mice vs. 719 +/- 83 in N mice, N = 4, P = NS). The Hyp and N AC responses to PTH were similar in the "bright" and "granular" portions of the distal convoluted tubule (1524 +/- 177 in Hyp mice and 1538 +/- 228 in N mice, N = 4). The other segments tested were not responsive to PTH (except the pars recta of the proximal tubule). In the presence of salmon calcitonin (10 ng/ml), a striking 5- to 12-fold increase in AC activity of the "bright" and "granular" portions of the distal convoluted tubule was observed in each Hyp mouse as compared to its paired N control (2434 +/- 618 vs. 399 +/- 56, N = 6, P less than 0.01). The AC response to calcitonin was also increased, though to a lesser extnet (Hyp/N = 1.8) in the "light" portion of the distal tubule (590 +/- 60 in Hyp and 352 +/- 36 in N mice, P less than 0.01). Other segments of the mouse nephron were also observed to contain calcitonin-sensitive AC, but the responses were of limited magnitude only and were not statistically different in Hyp and N mice. Dose-response curves showed that the decrease of the response to PTH in the proximal tubule as well as the increase of the response to calcitonin in the distal tubule were present in Hyp mice for the whole range of hormone concentrations tested. In both structures, the apparent Km for the cyclase activation by the hormone was similar in the Hyp and its paired N mouse.

Calvaria from five-day-old mice incubated in a continuous flow system (10 calvaria per culture chamber with 1 ml volume; flow rate 1ml/hr.). In 24-hour cultures, calvaria showed less resorption than in stationary culture. Short-term responses to PTH and calcitonin were similar to those observed in vivo.
