We examined mechanisms of down-regulation of PTH receptors and desensitization of the PTH-stimulated increase in intracellular cAMP in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells, ROS 17/2.8. ROS cells treated with 10 nM [Nle8,Nle18,Tyr34] bovine (b) PTH-(1-34) amide (NlePTH) for 3 days showed loss of specific PTH binding and PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation to 10% of that in vehicle-treated control cells. Treatment of these cells with both 0.5 mM 8-bromo-cAMP (8-Br-cAMP) and 1 mM methylisobutylxanthine or 100 ng/ml cholera toxin for 3 days elicited no change in either of these responses. Treatment with 10 nM NlePTH for 3 days did not modify the cAMP accumulation stimulated by 30 microM forskolin or 1 micrograms/ml cholera toxin, indicating that agonist-specific desensitization of PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation is not due to diminished activity of either the stimulatory guanyl nucleotide regulatory subunit (Gs) or the catalytic subunit of the adenylate cyclase. Treatment of ROS cells with pertussis toxin (PT; 10 ng/ml) for 12, 24, 48, and 72 h increased specific PTH binding by 21%, 28%, 35%, and 39%. The increase in PTH binding was associated with a parallel increase in PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation and was due to an increase in the number of PTH receptors. PTH receptor affinity remained constant (apparent Kd = 0.3 nM). PT treatment of the cells partially blocked agonist-specific PTH receptor down-regulation. PT catalyzed ADP ribosylation of 41K and 39K membrane proteins, consistent with the alpha-subunits of Gi and Go, respectively. In conclusion, agonist-induced PTH receptor down-regulation in ROS 17/2.8 cells is cAMP independent and can be reversed by PT treatment. PTH receptor expression in these cells appears to be under tonic inhibitory control by mechanisms involving a PT-sensitive G protein(s).

In rat osteosarcoma (ROS 17/2.8) cells, which express osteoblastic features in culture, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) reduces the level of alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen, and osteocalcin mRNA and increases osteopontin mRNA, independent of growth stimulation. The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) effects are dose dependent (EC50 about 6 pM) and are detected 24 h after addition of the growth factor. bFGF also reduces parathyroid hormone-stimulatable adenylate cyclase and alkaline phosphatase activity in these cells. Concomitant treatment with pertussis toxin (20 ng/ml) opposes the FGF effects. Although cyclic AMP elevating agents mimic pertussis toxin action on some parameters, they produce opposite effects on others, indicating that antagonism between pertussis toxin and bFGF is not mediated by cyclic AMP. bFGF caused a small reduction in steady state NAD-dependent ADP-ribosylation and had no detectable effects on the steady-state levels of the Gi alpha (alpha subunit of the inhibitory G protein) 1, 2, and 3, visualized with specific antibodies in these cells. Although the site of interaction of pertussis toxin and FGF remains to be determined, the findings presented here suggest separate control of growth and differentiation by bFGF and show that pertussis toxin treatment can modulate differentiation in these cells, presumably via Gi proteins.

We identified the subunits of the stimulatory and inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding proteins (Gs and Gi, respectively) associated with adenylate cyclase in rat osteosarcoma (ROS) cells. Pertussis toxin catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of Gi alpha in ROS cells increased agonist (PTH and isoproterenol)-stimulated, but not basal, cAMP production. The effect of pertussis toxin was dose and time dependent, and slowly reversible (T 1/2 approximately 30 h) during continued culture without toxin. Pertussis toxin treatment of ROS cell lines (17/2.8 and 24/l) with markedly different agonist responsiveness increased agonist-stimulated cAMP production in proportion to the response without toxin treatment. Pertussis toxin treatment further increased cAMP response to PTH in dexamethasone treated cells. We conclude that ROS cells contain functional Gi which modulates agonist-stimulated cAMP formation. Alterations in ROS cAMP responsiveness caused by steroids, and the reduced responsiveness of the 24/1 cell line, however, are unlikely to be due to changes in Gi.

The properties of phospholipase C (PL-C) in the plasma membranes (PM) and the cytosol of osteoblast-like osteosarcoma cells, UMR-106, were analyzed to see if separate enzymes or similar enzymes were involved in signalling, transduction, and arachidonate release. The cytosolic PL-C displayed substrate affinities in the order of phosphatidylinositol (PI) greater than phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PIP) or phosphatidylinoisitol-4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Hydrolysis of PI, PIP, and PIP2 by cytosolic PL-C was not affected by GTP or GTP gamma S and other nucleotides. PI hydrolysis by PM and cytosolic PL-C was undetectable in the presence of 500 microM EGTA and displayed two activity plateaus at various concentrations of Ca2+. The Km for Ca2+ in the PL-C activity of the first plateau was 0.08 microM. Significant hydrolysis of PIP2 by cytosolic PL-C was observed in the absence of Ca2+. In contrast to the enzyme(s) predominant in the cytosol, the order of substrate affinities for PM PL-C was PIP2 greater than PIP greater than PI. Only PIP2 hydrolysis by PM PL-C was stimulated by both GTP and GTP gamma S in a dose-dependent manner. PIP2 hydrolysis by PL-C of the PM was not observed in the absence of Ca2+, serving to further discriminate this enzyme activity from that of the cytosol. PIP2 hydrolysis by PL-C of the PM also was biphasic in the dependence on Ca2+. At resting cytosolic Ca2+ levels, the Vmax of the high affinity activity already had been achieved. Guanine nucleotide stimulation of PIP2 hydrolysis by PM PL-C was characterized by increased maximum activity with an unchanged Km for Ca2+ or for PIP2. The pH optimum of PIP2 hydrolysis was similar between cytosolic and PM forms of PL-C. PIP2 hydrolysis with production of IP3 (PL-C activity) in UMR-106 cells treated with [2-3H]-myoinositol was stimulated by PTH, and this stimulation was not inhibited by pertussis toxin. These data suggest that UMR-106 cells possess at least two distinct PL-C activities, one predominant in the cytosol and activated by increasing cytosolic Ca2+ with PI as the substrate. The second enzyme, a GTP-activated PIP2-specific PL-C in the plasma membranes may play an important role in hormone-induced PIP2 hydrolysis mediated through guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins and may participate in the hormonal regulation of osteoblast cytosolic Ca2+ and bone remodeling functions.

In human osteosarcoma membranes, gold(III) (Au(III)) inhibits prostaglandin E2- and isoproterenol-mediated stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity without affecting basal enzyme activity. Forskolin activation of adenylate cyclase is also blocked by Au(III) with ID50 of 1-2 microM. The inhibition by Au(III) is preserved in membranes prepared from pertussis toxin-treated cells. The inhibitory effect of Au(III) is additive to inhibition of adenylate cyclase by 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine. These data provide evidence that the action of Au(III) is at or near the catalytic moiety of the cyclase system and that Au(III) does not act via the guanine nucleotide-binding inhibitory component or the adenosine P-site inhibitory pathway.

The effects of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on parathyroid hormone (PTH)-responsive adenylate cyclase were examined in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells (UMR-106) with the osteoblast phenotype. Recombinant TFG-alpha and EGF incubated with UMR-106 cells for 48 h each produced concentration-dependent inhibition of PTH-responsive adenylate cyclase, with maximal inhibition of 38-44% at 1-3 ng/ml of either growth factor. TGF-alpha and EGF also inhibited beta-adrenergic agonist (isoproterenol)-stimulated adenylate cyclase by 32%, but neither growth factor affected enzyme response to prostaglandin or basal (unstimulated) activity. Nonreceptor-mediated activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin and cholera toxin was inhibited 18-20% by TGF-alpha and EGF. Pertussis toxin augmented PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase, suggesting modulation of PTH response by a functional inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory component of the enzyme. However, pertussis toxin had no effect on TGF-alpha inhibition of PTH response. Growth factor inhibition of PTH response was time-dependent, with maximal inhibition by 4-12 h of TGF-alpha exposure, and was reduced by prior treatment of UMR-106 cells with cycloheximide. TGF-alpha was not mitogenic for UMR-106 cells. The results indicate that TGF-alpha and EGF selectively impair PTH- and beta-adrenergic agonist-responsive adenylate cyclase of osteoblast-like cells. Growth factor inhibition of adenylate cyclase may be exerted at the receptor for stimulatory agonist and at nonreceptor components excluding pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins. The inhibitory action of growth factors may also require protein synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In studies of the regulation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) signal transduction, we observed that the peptide endothelin-1 (ET) added prior to PTH greatly increased the calcium transients elicited by PTH in UMR-106 osteosarcoma cells and mouse primary osteoblastic cells. Enhancement by ET also occurred in the presence of EGTA. The ETB receptor-specific agonist sarafotoxin 6c (S6c) likewise enhanced PTH-induced Ca2+ transients. Blocking the ETA receptor-mediated component of the ET signal with BQ123 failed to abolish enhancement of PTH responses by ET. The nonselective ETA/ETB receptor antagonist PD 142893 blocked both ET and S6c-induced enhancement of the PTH responses. Prostaglandin F1 alpha (PGF1 alpha) pretreatment also maximally potentiated PTH responses, whereas alpha-thrombin, epidermal growth factor (EGF), or prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) did not affect the PTH responses. Neither active phorbol ester nor forskolin mimicked the ET effect. The ET effect was not prevented by indomethacin, NG-mono-methylarginine, genistein, pertussis toxin, 4-aminopyridine, tetraethylammonium chloride, okadaic acid, or long-term treatment with phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate. ET pretreatment did not abolish the inhibition of PTH signals by PTH(3-34), although in ET-pretreated cells the suppression of the PTH signal by PTH(3-34) was not as great. ET pretreatment did not enhance the cAMP response to PTH; rather, there was a significant inhibition of the cAMP response. Thus, the calcium signal elicited by PTH is selectively modulated by activation of the ETB receptor.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Rat osteosarcoma 17/2.8 cells (Ros 17/2.8 cells) were labeled with [32P]PO4(2-), and their levels of inositol lipids were determined after stimulation with thrombin. Thrombin stimulated a pertussis toxin-sensitive rapid accumulation of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] with lesser increases in levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P2] and phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate [PtdIns3P] that were slower in onset. Ros 17/2.8 cell homogenates contained phosphatase activities that hydrolyzed PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns3P. Phosphoinositide-3-kinase activity was determined in Ros 17/2.8 cell homogenates using exogenously provided PtdIns(4,5)P2. Guanosine-5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate caused an approximately 3-fold increase in phosphoinositide-3-kinase activity in a manner that was blocked by high concentrations of guanosine-5'-2-O-(thio)diphosphate. Purified bovine brain G protein beta gamma subunits also increased phosphoinositide-3-kinase activity modestly in Ros 17/2.8 cell homogenates. Ros 17/2.8 cell homogenates contained phosphatase activities that sequentially dephosphorylated PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns3P. Two peaks of phosphoinositide-3-kinase activity were resolved by anion exchange chromatography of a Ros 17/2.8 cell cytosolic extract. The later elution of these was selectively activated by beta gamma subunits (16-fold activation with 16 microM beta gamma subunits). Half-maximal effects of the beta gamma subunits were observed at a concentration of 0.6 microM, and activation was blocked by preincubation of the beta gamma subunits with an excess of recombinant Gi alpha 2. beta gamma Subunits did not activate the p85 alpha/p110 beta form of phosphoinositide-3-kinase purified from sf9 cells after expression with the use of baculovirus vectors.

A pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein has been reported to play a role in the mitogenic response to insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in mouse fibroblasts, and diacylglycerol generation has been shown to accompany growth stimulation by IGF-I of several cell lines. We have examined the roles of pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins and diacylglycerol generation in signaling by the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor in a cell line that is very responsive to IGF-I, the human osteosarcoma cell line, MG-63. Pertussis toxin failed to inhibit IGF-I induced [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA. Furthermore, the stable analog GTP gamma S had no effect on the binding of 125I-labelled IGF-I to MG-63 membrane preparations. Following addition of IGF-I to growth-arrested MG-63 cells there was no increase in diacylglycerol levels over 30 min. We conclude that the activated IGF-I receptor does not use pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins or diacylglycerol generation in a pathway leading to DNA synthesis in MG-63 cells.

To verify whether the heterogeneous intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) responses to PTH observed in the UMR 106-01 osteogenic sarcoma cells are secondary to cell cycle asynchrony or to genotypic differences within the population, we synchronized cell monolayers at the G1/S boundary using a sequential thymidine-aphidicolin block. Video image analysis of fura-2-loaded cells revealed that PTH (10(-7) M) induced transient increases of [Ca2+]i preferentially in cells in S phase (82% response frequency, n = 63; 286 +/- 33% of baseline, n = 29), whereas cells in G1 phase responded poorly to PTH (10% response frequency, n = 51; 140 +/- 8% of baseline, n = 5). In contrast, cell exposure to 2% fetal calf serum was followed by [Ca2+]i transients in 83% (n = 42) of cells in G1 phase, but in only 25% (n = 63) of cells in S phase, with similar response amplitude. Hormonal responsiveness was heterogeneous in small clones obtained from single UMR 106-01 cells, with response frequency similar to that observed in nonsynchronized cultures. Pretreatment with either La3+, nifedipine, or pertussis toxin reduced both frequency and amplitude of PTH response in S phase to levels close to G1 phase, whereas there was no significant difference in inositol trisphosphate generated by PTH stimulation in either phase. Therefore, the heterogeneous [Ca2+]i responses of UMR 106-01 cells to hormonal stimulation is dependent on the phase of the cell cycle, rather than on genotypic heterogeneity. The switch from the G1 to the S phase mode of response is driven by active coupling between the PTH receptor and a Ca2+ channel through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein.
