  • Title: Phorbol ester induces desensitization of PTH-stimulated cyclic AMP production by decreasing the PTH receptor binding in UMR-106 cells.
    Author: Ikeda K, Sugimoto T, Fukase M, Fujita T.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1991 Apr 30; 176(2):764-8. PubMed ID: 1851004.
    Abstract:
    Pretreatment of UMR-106 cells (rat osteoblast like osteosarcoma cell line) with the protein kinase C(PK-C) activating phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) results in a time dependent (1-12h) desensitization of PTH-stimulated cAMP production. Compared to controls, PMA-treated cells showed 50% decrease of PTH-stimulated cAMP production. PK-C inhibitor, H-7 significantly blocked this PMA-induced desensitization. PTH receptor binding, assessed with 125I-[Nle8,Nle18,Tyr34]PTH-(1-34) as radioligand, was decreased by about 20% in PMA-treated cells. H-7 treatment completely restored receptor binding in PMA-treated cells. These data suggest that PK-C might act directly on PTH receptor which is coupling to adenylate cyclase, and induce desensitization.
